Ye Yi, who was sitting in the corner, was drinking comfortably while looking at the main stage intentionally or unintentionally. Bai Qiu and the others were not deliberately isolated from their conversation, so people in the audience could hear clearly. But they were not what Ye Yi cared about. The question discussed, how to conduct this sword tasting competition, has nothing to do with him at all.
His attention naturally focused on Ren Xingge. He was confused as to why he wanted to pay attention to this person. Obviously most of the people here were stronger than him. His temperament and identity were not conspicuous to that extent. .Why do you think he is different? What is the difference?
Ye Yi was a little depressed. Could it be that he drank too much? Forget it. Since he cared, he would just talk to that person after the meeting. Maybe he had met before but he had forgotten.
But I heard that Ren Xingge’s attitude is very rude and unkind. I wonder if he will be kicked out...
Tianlan didn't look at Ye Yi again. He even retracted his attention from Ye Yi. He himself said that when they meet again, they should treat it as strangers. But he still cares so much. It's too shameful.
From now on, he will completely treat Ye Yi as a stranger. He will not show any emotion. He will not care about his condition.
This is for Ye Yi's good.
Tian Lan's current identity is the Young Master of Zhuoshen. If Ye Yi continues to have a relationship with him, sooner or later his identity will be exposed. Ye Yi will also be implicated. Even if he is lucky enough to survive, how will he be able to survive in Qingshen in the future? There is a place to stand. How can he continue to live in the heavenly realm?
If you really treat him as a friend, you can't harm him by not recognizing him.
Tian Lan thought very clearly. He would rather Ye Yi believed that he was missing forever or was dead. He did not want Ye Yi to be implicated by him. But it was strange. Tian Lan never thought about what Ye Yi would do after knowing the truth. How about it? In his heart, this may not be a problem at all, because Ye Yi will definitely choose to stand on his side, even if he is the enemy of all the gods in the world.
Tian Lan no longer thinks about Ye Yi at this moment. He focuses on what Bai Qiu is going to say. For him, finding the inside story of the ritual of worshiping the sky is the most important thing at the moment.
The reason why he came to the sword tasting conference was because it was a grand event. Maybe he could have some clues; secondly, this sword tasting conference was hosted by Bai Qiu. He came for Bai Qiu. Because Ren Xingge was In the sealed memory, Bai Qiu is a key figure. He once had some relationship with the ceremony of worshiping the heaven. It is one of the three portraits he painted.
Tian Lan still doesn't know what position this Bai Qiu plays in the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. But he must be related to it. He must know some inside information about the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. I don't know if his memory has also been sealed. However, No matter what, this is the only clue Tian Lan has. He can't give up easily. And this is Tian Lan's purpose of approaching him.
Bai Qiu said: "A hundred years ago, there was a sudden change in the earth's crust. A strange abyss appeared not far to the southwest of Qixia City. We once went down to see it. The abyss was extremely rich in pure air. It was an ideal place for cultivation. And there were no powerful aliens. Beasts guard.”
Immediately, another Qingshen asked: "How come such a good place has never been visited by anyone?"
Bai Qiu smiled and said: "It is impossible for such a holy land to appear without reason. So we speculate that there is a genius treasure hidden in it, or it is a secret training place of the ancient gods. Therefore, this abnormal movement of the earth's crust appeared in the world. We discovered this after The treasure land will be sealed immediately. However, good things cannot be kept exclusively. I want to share them with everyone through this sword tasting competition."
A middle-ranking Qingshen smiled and said: "Does Mr. Bai intend to let us practice there for decades?"
Bai Qiu shook his head and said: "Of course not. Wouldn't it be too boring to just practice? Everyone knows that if the artifact is kept in a high-concentration pure air environment, the quality of the artifact will be even better. So we put it in a hundred years ago We have obtained a batch of high-quality artifacts. By now, they should have been upgraded to a level. There are more than a hundred artifacts in this batch. The lowest ones are mid-grade artifacts, and the best ones are even top-grade artifacts."
He looked at Tianlan with a smile and said: "Of course. This is just a preliminary judgment. It has not yet been evaluated by Zhenxing Valley. But everyone should still believe in Bai's vision."
Many people below immediately began to breathe heavily. The top-notch artifact. It was a treasure that would never be seen in a lifetime. Even the presidents of many divine associations had their eyes lit up. If they could get that top-grade artifact...
The people in the audience suddenly became quiet. Everyone was actually paying attention to the conversation on the main stage. Who could not be moved when hearing about the top artifacts? Only big figures like Bai Qiu and Qiao Rushan could possess top artifacts. Ordinary casual cultivators I have never seen even high-level artifacts.
Except for Bai Qiu and Qiao Rushan, only Tian Lan and the other five people present were unmoved after hearing this. They looked calm. Because they are all the gods of turmoil. No matter how good the artifact used by this god of Qing is, it is the top artifact. Even if it is the best. They can't use the artifact. What's the use? Let alone being excited. They simply don't care.
But in the eyes of outsiders, they don’t think so. They can only think that the people in Zhenxing Valley are really extraordinary. Sure enough, they see a lot of good things. They are so calm even when they hear about top-level artifacts. Not to mention Ren Xingge, the young master of the valley .Even a few of his subordinates were very present and didn’t take it to heart at all.
Bai Qiu continued in the silence: "I want to hold this sword competition in the underground of the abyss. After entering the abyss, everyone will depend on their luck. The artifact they get will belong to the one who gets it. Of course, if you want to get it, Good artifacts also depend on your taste. Some people may take five, all of which are mid-level artifacts. Others may only take one, but it is a top-grade artifact. It is a hundred times stronger. In this way, it combines treasure appraisal and martial arts competition. .It’s more interesting, isn’t it?”
"That's a good idea."
"Sure enough, there is something new."
“It’s really interesting!”
Everyone below began to respond. People in the audience were also talking about it. They seemed to think that this luck-based robbery was more fair. For the weak, they had little hope in the competition. With this change, if they are lucky, they On the contrary, there will be gains. For the strong, they already have the opportunity to compete for the artifacts. Once there, they can not only get their own share, but also grab some of the artifacts obtained by others. The harvest will be even greater.
Bai Qiu continued: "For the sake of fairness, God Lord Qiao and I will not join. There is no limit to others. The underground of the abyss is quite complicated. There are thousands of large and small passages, and there are countless forks. Just in case. Everyone is lost. We will give everyone participating in the competition a map. There is only one exit, which is the entrance. God Qiao and I will be waiting for everyone there."
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that the two superpowers Bai Qiu and Qiao Rushan were not participating. This proved that all the good things inside belonged to them.
Bai Qiu simply said in one breath: "The sword tasting competition will start the day after tomorrow. Since the venue is relatively large this time, we will extend the competition time to ten days. If everyone is not interested in those artifacts, it will be good to practice there for ten days. The effect will be good. It's also very good. But when the ten days are up, we will seal the place again. Please come out in time and don't stay too much."
Tian Lan was silent. Although Bai Qiu's words were pleasant, Tian Lan smelled a conspiracy. He gathered everyone together to participate in some kind of treasure hunting activity. Why? What did Bai Qiu want to do? What was his purpose?
And that strange abyss. It’s really a change in the earth’s crust. It’s so perfect. Could it be that it has some other purpose?
And Qiao Rushan. Since he didn't participate, why did he come here? He couldn't really be here to calm things down. He contacted Bai Qiu and asked Ren Xingge to come over. Tianlan felt that things seemed not that simple.
At this time, Tian Lan, taking on the identity of Ren Xingge, was not worried about his own safety. Instead, he was vaguely looking forward to it. He originally came with the idea of giving it a try. Now it seems that it is a bit interesting...
The reception lasted for a long time, until late at night. The main purpose of the reception was to announce the change in the format of the sword tasting competition. Almost as soon as the host proposed it, the guests were busy agreeing. It was as if it was a good practice. No one proposed it. Objection. Bai Qiu also had a very good attitude. He discussed the details with everyone. In the end, everyone dispersed in peace and harmony.
Tianlan, Yonghu and the others left relatively early. Although their identities would not be revealed, they would inevitably feel uncomfortable staying with so many Qingshen. So it was better to leave early. They had already made arrangements. I found my residence in the Bamboo Garden of Pinxuan Pavilion.
There is a huge palace behind Pinxuan Pavilion. It is specially used as a temporary residence for the gathering of spiritual gods. It is divided into four gardens of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. Among them, the bamboo garden is the most secluded. Bai Qiu knows that Ren Xingge does not like to be noisy, so he set aside the bamboo garden for him. The best Qinzhu Garden.
"Hey...wait a minute."
Tianlan and the others had just left the main hall when Ye Yi's voice came from behind.
When they walked out just now, they met many people who wanted to make friends. However, Tian Lan showed Ren Xingge's style completely. He kept walking and didn't look back. He ignored them completely.
But as soon as this voice called out, Tian Lan subconsciously stopped and felt an inexplicable suddenness in his heart.
It's Ye Yi. Why did Ye Yi suddenly stop me? He must have recognized me.
It was because of this concern that he stopped. When he reacted, he couldn't continue walking as if nothing had happened. He felt a little nervous. He didn't turn his head. He just turned his back to Ye Yi and listened to his footsteps getting closer and closer. .
In fact, one of the important reasons why he left in a hurry was to avoid Ye Yi. He didn't see him, didn't talk to him, and even looked away from him. In short, he just didn't have any interaction with him. He didn't want anyone to suspect that he knew him. Ye Yi. But things often backfire when things develop. The more he wants to avoid Ye Yi, the more Ye Yi chases after him.
Li Xu responsibly stood behind Tianlan and said: "You are not allowed to approach the young master."
