The Six Gates of Great Compassion Poem had been gathered, but there was still no news about the last one. However, Chu Xiu was not discouraged. This kind of thing depended on luck, and it was not something that could be forced.
Just like this time, he was unlucky and did not get it, but the lucky Lu Fengxian got it. However, to Chu Xiu, it could be counted as his luck.
After the Xiaofan Heaven ended, there was nothing to do in the outside world, so Chu Xiu prepared to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time.
Chu Xiu needed time to refine the Taoist Connotation that he had obtained in the Xiaofan Heaven. He had also accumulated a lot of insights and experience from fighting with Zong Xuan and Zhang Chengzhen, and he also needed time to digest them.
Of course, there was also the Divine Finger of Heaven and Earth Annihilation that Lu Fengxian had given him. Chu Xiu also needed some time to practice it.
During the time when Chu Xiu was cultivating in seclusion, there were countless waves in the outside world.
The Xiaofan Heaven opened every 30 years, and it was about the time when the younger generation of the Jianghu began to change. However, the changes that the Xiaofan Heaven had on the younger generation of the Jianghu this time seemed to be a little big.
Among them, the most widely spread news was that Zhang Chengzhen had fought against five top talents of the younger generation and stepped into the Martial Arts Master Realm.
Although everyone knew that Zhang Chengzhen would step into the Martial Arts Master Realm sooner or later, no one expected that Zhang Chengzhen would use such a shocking method to step into the Martial Arts Master Realm and condense the Thunder Golden Core. It could be said that it was a brilliant feat.
After stepping into the Martial Arts Master Realm, Zhang Chengzhen naturally could not stay on the Longhu List anymore. However, he was immediately promoted to the 34th place by Wind Sweeping Tower.
Just out of the Longhu List, he immediately occupied a place on the list. Even in the history of Wind Sweeping Tower, there were not many people who could do that.
Moreover, Zhang Chengzhen's ranking was not low. He was ranked thirty-fourth, even higher than Yan Huainan of the Divine Force School. Above him was Cheng Tingshan of the Undistracted Sword Tomb, the master of the Hidden Sword Villa.
Although there were some Martial Dao Grand Masters who were dissatisfied with Zhang Chengzhen's high ranking as soon as he stepped into the Grand Master Realm, they thought that Wind Manlou was sucking up to the Celestial Master Mansion. However, those who had entered Xiaofantian and seen Zhang Chengzhen fight would not think so.
Those who could condense the Thunder Gold Core were not weak. Zhang Chengzhen's performance when he was in the Oneness of Heaven and Men Realm was shocking enough. At present, Zhang Chengzhen had not fought since he became a Guru. Many people wanted to see the power of the Thunder Gold Core, but few wanted to try it in person.
Now that Zhang Chengzhen had left the Dragon and Tiger Ranking and was ranked on the Wind and Cloud Ranking, there was a lot of speculation about who would become the first on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking.
Wind Manlou did not keep everyone in suspense and immediately released the new Dragon and Tiger Ranking. The first on the list was Chu Xiu!
Although most people already had a guess about this result, they still felt it was unbelievable to see Chu Xiu surpass Zong Xuan and become the new first on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking.
Zong Xuan and Zhang Chengzhen had been fighting for a long time. Everyone knew that the Taoist and Buddhist sects had produced two monsters. In any case, these two people were either first or second. It would be good if they could look at third place.
However, the result was unexpected. Chu Xiu appeared out of nowhere and defeated Zong Xuan in front of everyone, becoming the first on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking.
This matter had a certain impact on the Great Light Temple's reputation.
When Zhang Chengzhen was still around, Zong Xuan was second. Now that Zhang Chengzhen had left, Zong Xuan was still second. This was enough to explain the problem.
Hearing this news, many disciples of the Great Light Temple were dissatisfied and clamored for Wind Manlou to change the ranking. However, they were all suppressed by the masters of the Great Light Temple.
Was it not embarrassing enough?
Zong Xuan actually had the strength to fight again in the battle at the Three Pristines Temple. However, everyone had seen him vomit blood after being attacked by Chu Xiu's Nine Seals Into One. This could not be refuted.
On the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, other than Chu Xiu who was first and Zong Xuan who was still second, the ranking behind him had changed a lot.
Among them, the third was Lin Ye of the Hidden Devil Clan.
In Xiaofan Heaven, Chu Xiu had used Lin Ye's identity to kill many people for the convenience of doing things. These achievements were extremely shocking to the outside world.
Disregarding everything else, just the fact that Chu Xiu had used Lin Ye's identity to severely injure Xu Xing and kill Zhen Yangzi was enough to shock the Underworld.
Fang Qi Shao was not weak either. However, he did not have such shocking achievements as Lin Ye's identity. Therefore, he was directly pushed down to fourth place.
The fifth place was Li Feilian.
Although Li Feilian did not attack many times, Chu Xiu would not have been able to kill Zhen Yangzi without his flying daggers.
Moreover, during the battle with Zhang Chengzhen, Li Feilian's flying daggers even made Zhang Chengzhen wary. One could imagine how great the threat of Li Feilian was.
Li Feilian became fifth while Ying Bailu was pushed down to sixth place, falling out of the top five.
In fact, Ying Bailu's performance in Xiaofan Heaven was not weak, especially in the battle with Zhang Chengzhen. Everyone could see Ying Bailu's strength.
However, compared to the dazzling performance of the others, Ying Bailu's performance could only be considered mediocre unless he killed a few Martial Dao masters to prove his strength.
Many women in the Underworld were dissatisfied with Ying Bailu's being pushed out of the Dragon and Tiger Ranking. They complained that Li Feilian did not attack many times, so why was he ranked above Ying Bailu?
However, Wind Sweeping Tower did not care about these words at all.
Ying Bailu himself did not say anything, so what were you women so anxious about?
The last person to change on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking was Lu Fengxian. He rose three places in a row and became seventh on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, second only to Ying Bailu.
Compared to the others, Lu Fengxian's performance was not bad. He was someone who had withstood dozens of attacks from Zong Xuan and even used the Demon God's Unparalleled Halberd and the Unparalleled Divine Weapon to push Zong Xuan back.
This performance was usually very strong, but unfortunately, compared to Chu Xiu and the others, it was slightly inferior.
As soon as this ranking was released, it immediately caused a lot of discussion in the Underworld. Of course, the most discussed topic was Chu Xiu and Lin Ye.
Most of the martial artists who ranked first on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking were from top sects. Chu Xiu was one of the few people who came from a humble background to rank first on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking.
Moreover, this generation's Dragon and Tiger Ranking could be said to be the strongest in the history of the Dragon and Tiger Ranking. There were many experts and countless talents.
Not to mention Zhang Chengzhen and Chu Xiu, Zong Xuan and Fang Qi Shao's strength were enough to rank first in the previous Dragon and Tiger Ranking or the one before that.
The main reason why Lin Ye caused the discussion was because of his identity, his identity as a member of the Yinmo Clan.
The revival of the Diabolism had long been felt by the righteous Jianghu. However, the entire righteous Jianghu was not a monolithic block, and there was no such thing as a Wulin leader. Before the Diabolism developed to a certain extent, even if everyone was afraid, they would not join forces.
After the great battle on Floating Jade Mountain, Diabolism had completely revealed its fangs. It was a sign that Diabolism was no longer satisfied with hiding in the dark, and was ready to surface.
The five major sword sects could be considered as a coincidence. They had originally planned to use Diabolism to strengthen their reputation, but they did not expect to draw out Diabolism's true strength.
Now that Lin Ye was ranked third on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, it was a very good proof.
Previously, this person was not well-known, as if he jumped out from a crack in a rock. As a result, he amazed the world with a single brilliant feat and entered the top 20 of the Dragon and Tiger Ranking. In the Minor Mortal Heaven, he was even a Grandmaster of Array Slaying. He surpassed many of the younger generation's talents and was ranked third on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking.
If a young man from the Yinmo Clan had such strength, who knew what other hidden experts were in the Yinmo Clan.
Not to mention the Yinmo Clan, just the strength of the Moon Worshipping Cult was enough to make many righteous sects apprehensive.
Of course, these things were only considered by some of the major sects. As for some of the smaller sects and rogue martial artists, they were more concerned about the Underworld's gossip.
At this moment, in the Azure Water Sword Sect's rear mountain in Wei County, Liu Gongyuan stood in front of the cliff. His complexion was old, as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant, becoming an old man with one foot in the grave.
Within the sect, one could still vaguely hear the disciples crying and cursing, but Liu Gongyuan acted as if he didn't hear it.
In the Minor Mortal Heaven, all the Azure Water Sword Sect disciples died in battle. None of them survived. This was a huge blow to the Azure Water Sword Sect.
Dou Guangchen didn't listen to advice and insisted on entering the Minor Mortal Heaven. As a result, more than half of the Azure Water Sword Sect's disciples died. Liu Gongyuan didn't know if he should be angry or sad.
But even if he was angry now, it was useless. His Azure Water Sword Sect's greatest enemy was no longer the same as before.
Defeating Zong Xuan and ranked first on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, Chu Xiu's strength had already surpassed many martial dao masters. With his old body, even if he fought with his life on the line, he didn't have much confidence.
Hence, Liu Gongyuan didn't care about the group of disciples in the sect who were clamoring for revenge. Even though he hated Chu Xiu to the extreme, Liu Gongyuan didn't even scold him.
Looking at Shen Bai's seclusion, Liu Gongyuan let out a deep sigh.
This was his Azure Water Sword Sect's last hope. He would guard it until his qi and blood deteriorated and he was on the verge of death.
If Shen Bai didn't come out of seclusion by then, Liu Gongyuan was prepared to burn his last trace of vitality and fight with Chu Xiu.
At that time, the Azure Water Sword Sect would truly be at its end. It didn't matter if he lived for a period of time or fought with Chu Xiu.
In fact, there were many people who criticized the Azure Water Sword Sect in the pugilistic world. They all thought that the Azure Water Sword Sect had declined to such an extent that it wasn't worthy to be one of the Seven Sects and Eight Factions.
But Liu Gongyuan was still a famous senior in the pugilistic world. He still had some prestige and connections. The others didn't want to go overboard. Therefore, the Wind Sweeping Building didn't change the ranking of the Seven Sects and Eight Factions.
After standing on the cliff for a while, Liu Gongyuan felt that the voices in the sect were much quieter. He then walked down the back mountain.
But after Liu Gongyuan walked down the back mountain, there was a subtle sword chime coming from Shen Bai's seclusion. It might be very soft, but it lingered in the air and didn't dissipate.
