When the sword essences were combined, one's battle strength would soar.
For example, when Jian Wushuang combined the Sword Essences of Gale and Raging Fire to form the Sword Essence of Wind and Fire, his battle strength had soared a lot.
If he could combine the three sword essences, his strength would naturally increase even more.
Jian Wushuang conservatively estimated that once he combined the three sword essences, his overall strength would increase by at least three times!
However, it was a pity that after two years of meditation in the Sword Tomb, his comprehension of the four sword essences had reached a very high level, but the combination of the three sword essences … Whether it was the Sword Essence of Earth or the Sword Essence of Waterdrop, he felt that there was still a little bit to be combined with the Sword Essence of Wind and Fire.
If he wanted to make up for that little bit, it would be difficult to achieve it purely through comprehension. He could only rely on luck and opportunity.
If he was lucky, he might be able to combine the three sword essences in the next moment.
"However, even if I didn't combine the three sword essences, my strength has improved a lot compared to a month ago. Now, if I fight with Baili Chen again, I am absolutely sure that I can defeat him." Jian Wushuang's eyes were filled with absolute confidence.
He was different from other warriors because he was an Inverse Cultivator.
For other warriors, the progress in one month was limited, but he could make great progress in one month.
After all, his current Cultivation of Spiritual Power was only at the Profound Realm of Jin Dan, while Baili Chen and the others had all reached the Peak of Jin Dan.
Just in terms of Cultivation of Spiritual Power, he still had a lot of room for improvement.
"One month is up, and the selection battle is about to begin." Jian Wushuang clenched his hands, and his eyes shone brightly.
Outside the Dragon Palace, ten Griffins had already been waiting there.
Jian Wushuang, Yang Zaixuan, and Su Rou walked side by side.
"You three are finally here. We were just waiting for you." Baili Chen sat on a Griffin casually and looked down.
"Why are there only you three? Where are Palace Master White and the others?" Jian Wushuang was puzzled.
"Palace Master and the others have already left for the selection battle site. They didn't pay attention to us." Baili Chen smiled and said, "Alright, get on the Griffin and let's go. I don't know why, but this year's selection battle will be held a hundred miles away from the Imperial City."
"Outside the Imperial City?" Jian Wushuang was also a little surprised.
Soon after, the ten Jin Dan experts representing the Dragon Palace set off on their Griffins.
…
A hundred miles away from the Imperial City, there was a huge open space.
At this moment, there was already a sea of people in the open space.
The internal selection battle of the Tianzong Dynasty was to select the strongest 15 geniuses to participate in the Easternmost Hunt. This selection battle was held once every ten years. Every time it was held, it naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Countless cultivators gathered. Before noon, there were already more than a hundred thousand cultivators gathered in this open space!
What kind of concept was it to have over a hundred thousand people gathered in an open space?
They were densely packed like wasps.
Fortunately, the most elite Royal Guard of the Tianzong Dynasty was there to maintain order, so the scene was not chaotic.
After all, the Royal Guard was very powerful. Every sergeant was in the Exceptional Jin Dan Realm, and they cooperated very well. No one dared to make trouble in front of the Royal Guard. Even if it was an expert on the Earthly Dragon List, once he made trouble, several sergeants of the Royal Guard would be enough to suppress him.
Among the crowd, there were a lot of powerful auras, many of which were much stronger than those in the Exceptional Jin Dan Realm.
They were all experts on the Earthly Dragon List!
Experts on the Earthly Dragon List, who were rarely seen on normal days, could be seen everywhere in this grand event. At a glance, there were already more than 50 experts on the Earthly Dragon List present.
Because there were so many experts on the Earthly Dragon List, the cultivators present were numb. They did not pay attention to the ordinary experts on the Earthly Dragon List, but to the top ones.
"Is that Ouyang Haotian?"
"Yes, it's him, Ouyang Haotian, who ranks third on the Earthly Dragon List. Next to him is his younger brother, Ouyang Haoyue."
"Tsk-tsk, the third on the Earthly Dragon List. It is said that he can easily kill an expert in the Yin-Yang Void Realm. He will definitely be one of the 15 candidates in this selection battle."
"Is that Mu Yingying from the Mu Clan?"
"She is also here."
"She used to be third on the Earthly Dragon List, but now she is fourth. Although her ranking has dropped, her strength should not be underestimated."
Many people were discussing in secret.
"Big brother, do you see that? Many people are paying attention to you." Ouyang Haoyue stood beside his big brother and could not help but feel a sense of pride.
"Well, don't worry about them." Ouyang Haotian was very calm. "In this selection battle, I will definitely get one of the 15 candidates. As for you, if there is a chance, I will try to get one for you."
"Thank you, big brother." Ouyang Haoyue was excited, but then he suddenly said coldly, "Big brother, there is one more thing. It is about Jian Wushuang."
"Well, I know." Ouyang Haotian nodded and said, "Don't worry. I'll give you an explanation when the time comes. Jian Wushuang is not qualified to be my opponent. Let alone him, I'll even trample Baili Chen under my feet!"
"In the entire Earthly Dragon List, there is only one person who is qualified to be my opponent."
"Who?" Ouyang Haoyue could not help but ask.
"Xue Yun." Ouyang Haotian said, but his pupils suddenly shrank. "He is here."
A black shadow swept across the void at an astonishing speed and instantly appeared in the void above. This black shadow turned out to be a huge black condor. A figure slowly floated down from the huge condor and landed on a temporary high platform in the middle of the open space.
This high platform was all alone. Although there were a large number of warriors around, no one dared to casually step onto the high platform. However, at this moment, this figure directly appeared on the high platform, looking down from above. His somewhat demonic eyes also swept over at this moment.
In an instant, there was a commotion in the open space.
"Xue Yun!"
"It's Xue Yun!"
"He is ranked first on the Earthly Dragon List and deserves to be the strongest under the Yin-Yang Void Realm!"
"There is no doubt that he will be one of the 15 spots this time."
Countless warriors around were extremely excited at this moment.
Xue Yun, this was a legend! A legend!
A goal that almost all warriors in the Tianzong Dynasty yearned for.
And now, this legend had appeared in front of everyone. His demonic and evil gaze swept across the crowd, looking down on everyone!
Everyone who was swept by his eyes, including those experts on the Earthly Dragon List, could not help but lower their heads at this moment.
No one dared to look directly into Xue Yun's eyes.
Because the gap between their strengths was too huge!
It was so huge that they could not make up for it with their efforts.
"Senior brother, is that Xue Yun?"
Among the crowd, there were several figures carrying long swords on their backs. They came from the Tianyuan Sword Sect, including Jian Meng 'er and her master, Shui Hanxin, whom Jian Wushuang had met before.
