"Thank you for your recognition, Ancestor Ye. I will do my best." Hu Chunniang naturally knew that Xiu Niang had spoken well of her and immediately bowed with joy.
To her, to be able to be Ancestor Ye's sword disciple was naturally a boundless benefit.
"In this competition, other than our sect's Hu Chunniang and Xiu Niang, the other three disciples will be from your Barbarian Ghost Sect. After all, Tian He and the others did not bring many Spirit Apostle disciples this time. "Ye Tian Mei turned her head and instructed Master Lei.
"Senior Ye, don't worry. This time, other than the four Spirit Masters, our sect has also brought over ten Spirit Apostle disciples. They are all quite strong." Master Lei shivered and replied respectfully.
"Very good. Then choose the strongest three and fight with Xiu Niang and Xiu Niang." Ye Tian Mei said without hesitation.
Master Lei of course agreed and turned around to give an order.
A moment later, the ten or so inner sect disciples standing behind the bone boat all walked forward and stood in a row.
These disciples were of different ages. The youngest was only twenty years old and the oldest was forty or fifty, but all of them had extraordinary auras.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed and found that he actually knew one of them. It was Du Hai.
Du Hai naturally saw Liu Ming, but he only nodded at him and did not show any expression.
"You all heard it. This competition concerns the relationship between our two sects. I can only choose the strongest among you to fight. Feng Long, Du Hai, Bai Cong Tian, you will fight! "Master Lei swept his gaze over the disciples in front of him and said in a tone that did not allow for discussion.
Hearing this, Liu Ming and the other two immediately stepped forward and bowed in agreement.
The disciple called Feng Long was a forty or so year old man. Seeing that he was not surprised by the words, he was obviously not an ordinary disciple.
However, Liu Ming secretly sighed in his heart.
Originally, he thought that after the support from the sect arrived, there would be nothing for him to do, but he didn't expect that even the powerhouses of the Crystallization Period would appear, and there were 2 of them at once, so he had to take action again.
"Listen up, you three! In this competition with the Sea Race, the Sect will not hesitate to reward those who perform outstandingly. However, if you are afraid of death and do something that disgraces the Sect, I will not be polite and directly execute the Sect's rules. "Master Lei's face darkened as he spoke.
Liu Ming and the other two felt a chill in their hearts, and they naturally agreed.
Under Master Lei's lead, the three of them flew directly onto the bronze flying carriage.
"These are the three disciples sent by your Barbarian Ghost Sect. Hmm, they are all Late Spirit Apostles, not bad! Your task is very simple. Try your best to delay the other opponents so that Xiu Niang can deal with these Sea Race people one by one. "Ye Tian Mei's gaze swept across Liu Ming and the other two as she spoke indifferently.
Although Du Hai and Feng Long didn't know who this so-called Zhang Xiu Niang was, under the gaze of Ye Tian Mei, a Crystal Level Cultivator, they naturally wouldn't say half a 'no'.
Liu Ming nodded silently.
"Alright, it's about time. You guys rest for a while, the competition will begin in a moment. " After saying this, Ye Tian Mei no longer paid attention to the five of them and glanced at the skinny man in the air on the other side.
This Crystal Level Cultivator of the Sea Race was sitting cross-legged in front of the white jade boat. His eyes were closed as he rested, as if he had a card up his sleeve for the following competition.
Seeing this, Ye Tian Mei only laughed coldly.
At this time, the dark blue screen of light that enveloped the palace suddenly blurred and turned into specks of light before disappearing.
Following this, the figures inside the screen flashed and six figures rose into the air, flying straight towards the jade boat.
Liu Ming squinted his eyes and saw the figures clearly.
One of them was the Divine Secret Fairy. The other five were a beautiful woman with a head full of pearls and jade, a middle-aged servant with an ordinary face, a huge man who was six feet tall, and a middle-aged man wearing a yellow robe. The last person was a blurry figure completely covered in a bloody light.
Seeing this, Liu Ming's heart moved slightly.
He wasn't sure about the others, but he recognized Empress Dong and Emperor Xuan Zhi immediately.
After all, as the most important people in Xuanjing, he had already seen the portraits of the two from the relevant information.
"Greetings Third Uncle!"
Once Empress Dong landed on the jade boat, she immediately paid her respects to Third Red.
"Hmph, girl from the Dong Family, you've completely failed this time. If you hadn't sent a message saying that Xuan Zhi's body had a trace of royal blood, our Red Scale Clan would never have interfered in the affairs of your Green Scale Clan. However, is what you said true? Does this child really have royal blood flowing through his veins? "Third Red spoke softly as he stared at Xuan Zhi and slowly asked.
"Don't worry Third Uncle Red. We are both of the Sea Race, how would I dare to lie about such a thing? Xuan Zhi, extend your arm. "Empress Dong first replied respectfully before giving an order to Xuan Zhi.
Although Xuan Zhi's face was a bit pale, he still immediately raised his arm after hearing this.
A cold light flashed in Empress Dong's hand as she used a small crystal sword to cut a small wound on Xuan Zhi's arm. With a wave of her hand, a small ball of essence blood flew out from the wound and was wrapped in Fa Li into her hand. She then took a step forward and offered it to the skinny man with both hands.
Third Red expressionlessly grabbed the ball of essence blood and stuck out his tongue to lick it. His expression suddenly changed.
"Not bad, there is indeed a trace of royal blood within. Although it is not very pure because it is mixed blood, it is still enough for me to make this trip. Regarding the competition, the Divine Secret should have already told you. "Third Red's expression relaxed as he asked.
"Sister Divine Secret has already said that we will only be able to leave after a competition with human cultivators. She also told me how to win. If that is the case, I have no objections and am willing to listen to Third Uncle Red's instructions. However, it is a pity for the normal clansmen that came with me. "Empress Dong first nodded her head before speaking with some reluctance.
"This is something that cannot be helped. After all, your plan has been exposed and you have been blocked here by the opponent. However, the sacrifice of these clansmen will not be in vain. To be able to bring back a clansman with royal blood, you have redeemed yourself. Alright, time is up. You and the others can go down and compete. However, you must ensure Xuan Zhi's safety. "Third Red said lightly.
"Yes, I know what to do." Empress Dong heard this and bowed again before standing up.
Then the five of them and the Prophecy Fairy had a brief discussion before they flew toward the front of the palace gate.
At the same time, Liu Ming, Zhang Xiu Niang and the others also rose into the air and descended.
The others remained where they were and did not move.
"There are too many rules for the competition, so I won't go into them. Other than during the competition, both sides are not allowed to leave the plaza in front of the palace gates. There are no restrictions on the use of treasures. As long as you can defeat or kill all of your opponents, you win! Fellow Ye does not have any objections to this, right? " The skinny man saw that both sides were standing in the plaza in front of the palace gates and immediately asked Ye Tian Mei.
"Alright, I have no objections!" Ye Tian Mei raised her eyebrows and replied without hesitation.
"Since that is the case, then let the competition begin." The skinny man said with a laugh.
Although his voice was not loud, Liu Ming and the others heard it clearly, as if it was ringing right next to their ears.
Following this, whether it was Master Lei or the Sea Race on the jade boat, they all looked down with a "shua" sound.
There, Liu Ming, Zhang Xiu Niang and the others stood in a row, each observing the opponent in front of them.
"That guy looks the most dangerous. Leave him to me." Zhang Xiuniang's gaze swept across Empress Dong and the others, finally landing on the blurry figure shrouded in bloody light, as she spoke indifferently.
Following this, she pulled the snow-white longsword from her back and walked towards the blood figure with large strides.
Seeing this, Liu Ming and the others naturally did not have any objections, and immediately went to face the opponent closest to them.
Not far from Liu Ming was the huge man, who was six meters tall.
When the huge man saw Liu Ming walk over, a fierce expression appeared on his face. Suddenly, his sleeve shook, and he took out a pill and directly threw it into his mouth.
"Blood Ignition Pill!"
Although they were a bit far away, Liu Ming could still clearly see the appearance of the pill, and was slightly surprised.
"You actually know the name of this pill. It seems that I don't need to say anything else. You can go die now. " The huge man swallowed the pill, and the veins on the surface of his body immediately bulged. At the same time, a shocking aura exploded from his body.
The huge man turned one of his hands in the air, and impressively, a scarlet long staff appeared out of nowhere. With a single movement of his arms, it turned into a gust of wind that swept towards Liu Ming.
Liu Ming's eyebrows furrowed, and with a movement of his body, he actually floated up with the wind like a willow leaf.
On the other side, Hu Chunniang and Du Hai also faced off against Empress Dong and the middle-aged servant.
Among them, Hu Chunniang held a translucent short sword in each hand. With a slight wave, it transformed into a series of sword shadows that violently slashed towards the opposite side.
On the other hand, Empress Dong held a yellow shield that was neither gold nor wood in one hand, and a flawless white jade scepter in the other.
One of the two emitted a deep yellow screen of light, and with a slight wave of the other, numerous white flower shadows appeared. Unexpectedly, both of them were defensive totems, and with just a few turns of activation, they were able to completely block all of the sword shadows.
After Du Hai pulled out the long blade on his back, his entire body transformed into four or five faint shadows, surrounding the middle-aged servant and slashing wildly.
The middle-aged servant held a light green turtle shell in one hand, and a thick layer of light appeared out of nowhere to protect herself. No matter how many blades flashed in all directions, she stood in place without moving an inch.
As for the middle-aged disciple called Feng Long, he faced off against Xuan Zhi, the former emperor of the Da Xuan Kingdom.
However, before Feng Long could raise his hand and release three identical black bone awls, Xuan Zhi threw a glittering silver glyph at him.
With a "hong" sound, the glyph blurred, and transformed into the image of a pale silver white shark. It opened its mouth and viciously bit towards Feng Long.
In his shock, Feng Long could only hurriedly activate the bone awls, turning them into balls of black light to protect himself, and first resist this extremely fierce white shark image.
