The three forces are distinct and unrelated to each other, forming three large circles. In addition, there are some scattered small circles nearby, but in terms of momentum, status, and personnel strength, they are far behind those in these three circles. Compared with people.
Of course, there are also a few loners like Ye Bai who stand alone and are unwilling to join the various circles formed by those people. Such people often stand in the corner, silently. , looking around, maintaining the most vigilant state at all times. This is because of the sense of vigilance brought by walking alone. At any time, anywhere, you will not let danger approach within a hundred meters of your body. Once it approaches, you will immediately feel it. .
In the entire Ye family's outer sect, four of the five masters of the eighth level of Xuanqi have arrived, Ye Po, Ye Huan, Ye Qianmei, and Ye Bufan. Only one person has not yet arrived, and that is Ye Penglai, who is known as "Tianwai Penglai". Ye Po is a member of the family Ye Penglai is the number one person in the outer sect in the martial arts competition, but Ye Penglai is recognized as the number one person in the minds of all the disciples in the family's outer sect. There is no comparison between the two because they are completely different.
Ye Penglai never participates in things like family competitions. According to him, it is boring. He is like a monkey, killing without mercy. He is also very powerful and mysterious. He has always been a loner. Rarely. My friend, I have always directly refused to win over the various forces without leaving any room, so I have secretly offended countless people, but because of my strong strength, no one dares to offend me.
Such a person naturally has countless legends. Unfortunately, not many people can see him. Basically 80% of the time, he is alone outside to practice and will never come back. However, this family exchange ceremony is related to the family trial three months later, so he probably won't come back.
Everyone is thinking this, and many people are eagerly waiting to see what is so surprising about this recognized first person from the outer sect. However, as time goes by, more and more people come here. , Ye Penglai's figure still did not appear.
At this time, Ye Bai had also rushed over from outside. He quietly blended into the crowd and stood quietly in a corner, observing the expressions of everyone around him and the comparison of their strengths, in order to prepare for the future of the family. Preparing for the trial.
When his eyes fell on the circle of Ye Po and Ye Bufan, he couldn't help but be slightly startled, because with his current profound energy cultivation, he could easily see that Ye Po and Ye Bufan had both improved. Having moved up a level, Ye Po has reached the upper level of the eighth level of Xuan Qi, while Ye Bufan has reached the middle level of the eighth level of Xuan Qi. Before that, one of them was in the middle of the eighth level, and the other was in the lower level of the eighth level. Come on, in the past three months, it's not just me who has advanced. They are all the same and have never given up on their cultivation.
Then, it was naturally impossible for him not to notice the people in the other two circles, as if they were the people at the center of the two circles, Ye Huan and Ye Qianmei. These two people were also masters in the middle of the eighth level of Xuan Qi. They seemed to be just a few steps away. It seems that the advancement is not far away, so the aura released is still slightly unstable, rising and shrinking, and erratic, but it is indeed a master in the middle of the eighth level. This outer sect also has talents, four of them are We have advanced recently, and we are showing signs of each other. No one will let anyone fall too far behind. If we want to advance, we will advance together.
Originally, I thought that at the peak of the eighth level of Xuan Qi, I was already firmly ranked as the number one person in the outer sect. It seems that if it were not for my adventures in the past two months, under the influence of various factors, I had obtained Xuan Qi advancement several times. I am afraid that they have already caught up with me. People cannot give up their vigilance at all times. This is true in times of crisis, and even more so in times of no crisis.
At this moment, Ye Bai deeply understood this truth and no longer dared to have the slightest contempt for these people.
If we just talk about Xuan Qi, Ye Bai will naturally not be afraid of any of them, but if we add the gap between Xuan weapons, Xuan skills, and elixirs, Ye Bai may not be sure of defeating any of them. .
This is the huge difference between having weapons and not having weapons, a good weapon and a bad weapon, as well as mysterious skills and elixirs. Even though Ye Bai's strength is far higher than them, but in real comparison, there is no difference. You may not necessarily win.
However, all this stops here. Once Ye Bai gets the skills and mysterious skills, he will be on the same level as Ye Po, Ye Bufan and others. Even though he is still inferior in other aspects, With a strength that is far superior to them, it is still not something that Ye Po and others can contend with.
Therefore, everything depends on the mysterious skills and mystical skills that each person chooses later. This is the primary condition that determines how far and how high everyone can go in the future. All achievements now are just what they see in the mirror. Flowers, the moon in the water, just a fleeting moment.
Xuan Gong is naturally a method for cultivating Xuan Qi. This is the basis for everyone. If people of the same level, or even people with a similar level, practice Xuan Qi skills of different levels, during battle, People who have practiced high-level skills often win.
Mysterious skills are skills for exerting mystical energy. They include attack mystical skills, body protection mystical skills, body movement mystical skills, body refining mystical skills, etc. They are the same as mystical energy cultivation techniques. It is the eighth level. The lowest level is naturally the basic mystical skills that mystics can practice, such as the 'Sword Qi Jue' and 'Sun Shooting Archery' practiced by Ye Po, Ye Bufan and others. In fact, this level cannot be counted as mystical skills. Skills, because mysterious skills can only truly display their power when they reach the stage of Xuanshi. The power of mysterious skills also starts from the second level, gray level mysterious skills.
Then, there are the yellow level, the green level, the blue level, the purple level, the red level, and the divine level. Each level is also divided into four levels: low, medium, high, and top.
A powerful mysterious skill can even defeat the opponent several levels higher, and possesses all kinds of incredible power. Mysterious skill is the foundation, and mysterious skill is the most powerful guarantee and motivation for exerting this foundation.
Many people argue endlessly about who is more important, and there has never been a conclusion, but no matter what, what everyone pursues throughout their lives is to obtain a higher level of Xuan Gong secrets, and a more powerful and powerful Xuan Gong. Skills, for this reason, they fought with blood and even sacrificed their lives to pursue them. For thousands of years, due to the competition for skills and mysterious skills, countless people were killed and injured. Many high-level magicians fell in these battles. , but everyone still moves forward and never retreats.
It is because these two things are so important to every Xuanshi, so important that more than 99% of people will be willing to risk their lives to obtain them and fight for them.
The "bell" rang again and again, and suddenly, a group of white-clothed disciples running quickly passed through the crowd and arrived in front of the Xuanwu Pavilion. They lined up in a row, holding swords and standing with serious faces.
Then, one man in green, one in purple, and two old men in their sixties walked up from the stage, stood on the stone steps, facing everyone, and behind them, followed a young man in white with a somewhat cold and handsome face. Like an unsheathed sword, radiating light, he stepped back slightly and stood behind the old man in purple.
After the old man in green clothes came on stage, he pressed his hands down slightly. Immediately, all the noise in the audience disappeared. Everyone stood there. No matter what they were doing, they immediately turned around and bowed slightly to salute the old man, because , these two old men are exactly the two elders of the inner sect, Ye Zhun and Ye Nanshan.
One is a deacon elder, and the other is a meritorious elder.
The Ye family is one of the four major families in Huoyun City, ranking second. The Ye family is divided into four branches: side branches, dependents, inner sect, and outer sect, plus an independent family deacon hall. , dealing with various tedious affairs and family business, and everything gained is for the inner sect to practice without any worries, distribute elixirs, collect materials, spiritual herbs, etc.
The side branches of the Ye family refer to those ordinary Ye family disciples who failed to cultivate Xuan Qi and were expelled from the family, or were dismissed from the inner and outer sects for various reasons, but are still on the family tree and spread their branches outside. , so they are counted as side branches and affiliated branches of the Ye family, which are other small and medium-sized aristocratic families in Huoyun City that are attached to Ye, Luo, Tantai, Shangguan and other big aristocratic families. Since they are not surnamed Ye, they can only belong to the Ye family. The vassal, and the inner sect, is naturally the real head of the Ye family. All the rights and benefits enjoyed by the outer branches, auxiliary branches, and the outer sect cannot be compared. The outer sect is between the inner sect and the inner sect. The existence between the outer branch and the external branch has a slightly higher status than the outer branch and can live in the outer courtyard of the Ye family, but at the same time, it is slightly lower than the inner sect. Every year, the greatest wish of all the outer sect disciples is to pass the family trial and enter The Ye family's inner sect became a disciple of the inner sect and worked hard for it.
The Ye family has one head of the family and two deputy heads of the family. Below it, there are four additional halls, the elder's hall, the deacon's hall, the execution hall, and the Xuanqi hall. The elder's hall is where the elders discuss matters, and the deacon's hall is in charge of the Ye family. All matters big and small, distribution of exercises, dispatch of elixirs, execution hall, which handles all criminal matters, Xuanqi Hall is the only external organization of the Ye family. It maintains a large number of Xuanshi to obey orders all year round. All the external affairs of the Ye family are , they all asked Xuanqitang to be responsible.
The heads of the four halls are all elders. The head of the hall of elders has the highest status and is the supreme elder. His status is only lower than that of the head of the family. The other three halls are responsible for their own responsibilities. The hall of elders does not interfere. There are eleven elders in the Ye family. Most of them are held by high-level profound practitioners, and there is only one Taishang Elder who is the top-level profound practitioner.
The two elders on the field are Elder Ye Zhun from the Deacon Hall and Elder Ye Nanshan from the Chuan Gong Pavilion. The deacon elder has the right to allocate all the skills and medicines, while the Chuan Gong elder is specialized in To guide inner sect disciples in their cultivation, the family transmission pavilion is a place where inner sect disciples must go once a month, because it is where the elders teach their thoughts and experience. If you can get a little advice from an elder, you can It can be used in a lifetime.
These two people happened to be in charge of today's Xuanwu Pavilion Kung Fu Exchange Ceremony. Everyone knew about it in advance, so it was not surprising. However, they were surprised that Bai Yi could stand on the stage in front of everyone, and no disciple knew him. Young man, everyone immediately started whispering earnestly, and finally the voices became louder and louder. The old man in green had no choice but to stop him with his gestures, and said loudly: "Quiet, quiet!"
Only then did everyone have to quiet down, and they all looked at the old man. The old man in green said: "Today is the time when my Ye family's Xuanwu Pavilion is reopened once a year. All the disciples of the Ye family's outer sect, as long as Your family contribution points are over 500. You can enter it today and choose your favorite Xuanqi cultivation techniques. Xuanwu Pavilion is the important place of my Ye family. No one is allowed to make noises or fights. If it happens, the violator will leave immediately and there will be no chance to enter Xuanwu Pavilion. Anyone who damages any facilities in the pavilion will be severely punished in accordance with the law and will never be tolerated. Therefore, please be careful, read more and speak less. , Don’t do it. If you don’t understand anything, just ask me in a low voice. But, you can’t walk around casually. Today, we are going to the first floor of Xuanwu Pavilion. Those who contribute more than 1,000 points can enter the second floor of Xuanwu Pavilion. Those with more than 2,000 floors can enter the third floor of Xuanwu Pavilion. From the fourth floor onward, ordinary disciples cannot enter. Therefore, everyone must be careful. If you don’t contribute enough, don’t trespass. Once discovered, you will be killed on the spot. Kill without asking for reasons! Okay, that’s all. I hereby wish that everyone can choose their favorite Xuan Qi cultivation techniques, become Xuan Shi as soon as possible, and promote the power of my Ye family!"
Everyone looked at each other. This rule was so strict that it was shocking. It was indeed a forbidden area for the family. However, when it came to Xuanwu Pavilion, there were different rules depending on the amount of contribution points. Everyone couldn't help but be stunned. They had not done this before. I've heard of it, but I don't know why this special case was made this time. The third floor of Xuanwu Pavilion is generally a place only family elders can enter. The second floor is filled with inner sect disciples, and only the core disciples of the inner sect can enter. However, the number of contribution points required is really astonishing, it actually requires a terrifying one thousand points.
However, there were several people in the audience. After hearing this, they couldn't help but smile. It was Ye Po, Ye Bufan and others. When Ye Bai first heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then he couldn't help but touch his arms. With a Mingka and a contribution of two thousand points, doesn't that mean that he can actually go up to the third floor of Xuanwu Pavilion? This was something Ye Bai had never thought of before. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a smile on the corner of his mouth. A faint smile.
This accident was nothing short of good news for him.
At this time, the purple-robed old man stepped forward and said slowly with a voice like a loud bell: "What the elder deacon said just now is exactly what I want to say. Everyone, in a quarter of an hour, Xuanwu Pavilion will be officially opened. Now , Everyone, take out the name cards in your hands, line up at the door, and enter one by one, without any chaos. Anyone who violates the rules will be kicked out of the team and will be disqualified from participating in the redemption ceremony. Now, starting from now, I will send someone to supervise you. This task will be performed by Ye Biao, a disciple of the inner sect! Let’s begin!”
As soon as he said this, the purple-robed old man took a step back. The young man in white, who looked like an unsheathed sword, slowly took a step forward. His eyes were like lightning, and he glanced at everyone. This time, everyone was stunned. Those who were slightly weak-minded subconsciously took a step back, even Ye Po and Ye Bufan were no exception. But then, they became alert and felt that they had lost face in front of others. They couldn't help but snorted coldly. Take a step forward to resist the pressure of Ye Biao.
At this time, the crowd also became excited. This white-clothed disciple following the two elders turned out to be from the inner sect. No wonder they had never seen it before. However, why could a disciple of the inner sect be so arrogant? Suddenly everyone became angry, and many looked at Ye Biao with even a hint of hatred.
This is caused by the huge difference between the inner sect and the outer sect. Everyone's psychology is unbalanced. Why can others enter the inner sect, but I have to struggle to survive in the outer sect, and I have to worry about being kicked out of the outer sect at any time. It's dangerous. The inner sect disciples have the guidance of the elders and the special rations from the Deacon Hall. They can enter the Xuanwu Pavilion and choose the exercises at will. Why can't they do it themselves...
Even Ye Po and Ye Bufan had an unkind look in their eyes. It was obvious that they were extremely indifferent to this Ye Biao. This was the relationship between the disciples of the inner sect and the disciples of the outer sect of the Ye family. They hated each other and looked down upon each other. If one can't get one, then the two sides will be different from each other. However, because of the huge innate distance, the side that loses in the end is often a disciple of the outer sect.
Looking at the hateful eyes of everyone in the audience, Ye Biao just smiled coldly and didn't care. His clothes were fluttering and he stood there like a jade tree in the wind. The pressure exerted by Ye Po, Ye Bufan and others was unexpectedly... What was written lightly was resolved.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other in shock. Ye Po, Ye Bufan, Ye Huan, and Ye Qianmei felt bitter in their hearts. Only then did they realize that the extremely handsome inner sect disciple Ye Biao in front of them had reached such an astonishing level of strength. Among the crowd, Ye Bai looked at the struggling expressions of Ye Po and others, and then looked at the stage. The picture of Ye Biao, who was so high-spirited and had forced everyone into such a state of embarrassment in just a few seconds, a flash of lightning flashed in Ye Bai's eyes. Taking a step forward, the aura in the middle of the ninth layer of Xuanqi was secretly transmitted from the ground. With a "bang...", Ye Biao, who was standing as steady as a rock on the stone platform, suddenly lost his strength. He staggered and almost took a step back, but at this moment, Ye Bai lost his energy and retreated back into the crowd. No one in the audience noticed, but this scene fell on the stage. The two elders couldn't help but look at each other in horror. They looked at each other and saw an incredible look in each other's eyes.
They are very clear about the strength of Ye Biao. Even among the powerful inner sect, he is also the best among them. He is only lower than the only three core disciples. Now, someone can actually force him to do so. He is in such a mess. There is such a person in this foreign sect, but they have never heard of it before. Could it be that Ye Penglai?
However, the two of them glanced down, but they could not find the person they were looking for. The surprise in their hearts became even deeper. However, the two of them were mature and sophisticated, and there was no flaw in their faces. No one noticed the secret in their hearts. Surprised, as if the world has been turned upside down.
Could it be that in this outer sect, apart from Ye Penglai, the prodigy who is known as the number one genius, there is someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him and compete with these outstanding disciples of the inner sect, and it seems that he is even better?
Ye Biao looked embarrassed. Although he took back his steps in time and did not defend himself in public, his expression was no longer as calm as at the beginning. He glanced sharply at the audience, trying to see who forced him to make a fool of himself, but he didn't find out at all. , and the four people who seemed to be the most outstanding in the audience, he didn't even look at. As a role model among the disciples of the inner sect, he had never suffered such a big loss. However, the strength of that person also made him shocked.
He snorted coldly, stopped showing off his momentum, glanced at the nearly a thousand disciples of the outer sect in the audience, and said coldly: "Line up!..."
The other disciples saw this in confusion, thinking that Ye Po and others worked together to break his coercive attack, but they did not understand that Ye Po and the other four were equally surprised, because they knew that they did not do this at all. , who could that be?
However, listening to Ye Biao's voice and thinking that he was acting as a surveillance agent on behalf of the elder Chuan Gong, although everyone had some concerns, they did not dare to give up the opportunity that they had finally obtained over the years, so they had to leave one by one in frustration. Stepping forward, one by one began to line up. Ye Bai mingled among the crowd and couldn't help but smile.
Just now, fortunately, he was able to dodge quickly. Not long after he regained his momentum, two divine thoughts swept over him. After finding nothing unusual, he took it back. Without thinking, he knew that it must be that person. Two elders, for the time being, he does not want to be the target of public criticism, so it is better to keep a low profile for the time being.
Just when the queue was almost over and Xuanwu Pavilion was about to open the middle door, suddenly, a long and full of laughter came from the distance, and a figure in white, speeding like lightning, cut through the sky, like a flash of lightning. And passed.
"Hahaha, how could such a big event be without me, Ye Penglai!"
Before the voice stopped, the figure had arrived. As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in white clothes with a sword on his back had already landed on the stone steps. He looked like a white crane emerging from the dust, flowing as gracefully as the wind, following him After a comparison, the inner sect disciple Ye Biao was immediately defeated. Immediately, there was a burst of exclamation from the audience, and everyone slowly shouted loudly: "Ye Penglai is back, Ye Penglai is back!"
Even the two elders couldn't help but be surprised. They glanced at the young man in white who seemed to be an unearthly person, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.
"What an amazing aura, what a mysterious body movement skills!"
This young man is naturally the recognized number one person in the outer sect, "Tianwai Penglai", Ye Penglai. He finally arrived at the last moment before the opening of Xuanwu Pavilion.
Ye Biao, the disciple of the inner sect, looked at all the eyes that had been focused on him as soon as he appeared, and immediately turned away, even the two elders. His heart sank, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
