"What is this?!" There were more and more cultivators on the grass. At this time, they were all attracted by the movement in the sky and looked up.
The seven-colored rainbow bridge was faintly discernible. Sikong Xing opened her eyes wide and saw it clearly. "Eh?! Look! That's not Meng Qi, that's just her shadow. "
"There's more over there!" Sikong Xing suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted.
Everyone looked up and saw a second figure slowly appearing beside Meng Qi's shadow.
The black-robed youth stood tall. Even though he was high up in the sky, he was still a little far from them. Everyone could also see his handsome features.
That youth looked cold and sharp, like a sword that was about to be unsheathed.
All the cultivators on the grass turned their heads and looked at the black-robed youth's shadow. It was the pavilion master of Falling Star Pavilion, Pei Mufeng.
However, before they could say anything, a third figure appeared in the sky.
In the blue sky, the man in the same black robe looked a little hazy. His back was straight. In terms of appearance, he would not lose to Pei Mufeng.
"Junior, Junior Brother Qin …" Someone murmured.
Qin Xiumo took a deep breath and turned his head to look at that person.
Sikong Xing's eyes widened.
She looked at the sky, then at Pei Mufeng, then at Qin Xiumo. Finally, she murmured, "What's going on?"
"Yes, yes, what's going on?!" Chu Tianfeng was also stunned. "Why are you two also …"
xiaoshuting.la
Before he finished speaking, a fourth figure appeared in the sky.
"Yan Xuan?!" There were even more people who knew this young master of Jingyue Heaven. Almost everywhere on the grass, there were voices calling out Yan Xuan's name.
Of course, there were also many people who knew that he had fallen from the top of the younger generation of the Three Thousand Worlds to the current trash appearance.
"You …" Sikong Xing looked up at this scene, her eyes filled with surprise.
At this moment, the fifth figure finally appeared in the sky. It was Xue Chengxuan.
"Brother!" Xue Zichen exclaimed. "I have you!"
Xue Chengxuan's reputation was no less than Pei Mufeng's. He was almost set to be the future leader of the Wind Alliance. At the same time, he was the most outstanding young medical cultivator in the Three Thousand Worlds.
He had many friends. Adding on his identity as a medical xiu, he had always been liked by xiuzhe.
Sikong Xing and Chu Tianfeng looked at each other and hurriedly looked at Qin Xiumo. Since he was also here, he must know something.
Qin Xiumo looked serious and said nothing.
"What the hell is going on?!" Chu Tianfeng was anxious. This guy's silence was really annoying sometimes. Did he not know that this was the Ten Extremes Mountain?! Since Meng Qi was involved, this matter had to be handled with extreme caution.
Soon, the sixth figure appeared. This time, it was finally someone Sikong Xing and the others did not recognize.
However, many xiuzhe here clearly knew this person. They immediately shouted: "It's Qiao Ran from the Broken Space Sect!"
They did not recognize this person. However, Sikong Xing knew about the Broken Space Sect. After all, this sect had been looking for Meng Qi for a long time.
The grass was instantly filled with whispers.
Not to mention Qiao Ran, just the three words' Broken Space Sect 'were enough to make people revere.
Especially the disciples who could come here. They all came from the ten great sects of the Three Thousand Worlds and Four Worlds. They were all very well-informed.
This Qiao Ran was the direct disciple of the new sect leader, Ling Ji, who had just seized the position of sect leader by force.
It was said that he was the most outstanding disciple he was proud of.
At this moment, no one hesitated. At this moment, six figures appeared in the sky. Other than Meng Qi, they were all genius disciples from large sects.
That Meng Qi, although he did not belong to any sect, he was recognized by the ancient great doctor Lin Yan. Just this identity alone was far superior to those disciples of normal medical cultivation sects.
Li Che stood not far from Sikong Xing. He was also quietly looking at Meng Qi's elegant face.
"Shixiong, do you know what's going on?" His sect's disciple was asking him in a low voice.
"I'm not sure either." Li Che shook his head lightly.
Xue Chengxuan and Meng Qi were both there. They were also medical cultivators … … Li Che clenched his fists slightly. Just now, they had fought side by side and detoxified the xiuzhe here.
He met his shidi's puzzled gaze and smiled embarrassedly: "I really don't know what's going on."
"Brother!" Xue Zichen also asked anxiously: "What's going on?"
Xue Chengxuan did not immediately answer his sister. Instead, he looked at Pei Mufeng and Qin Xiumo. They could be considered to have fought side by side in the Starfall Sea. He indeed had a wide circle of friends. After all, they had experienced life and death together.
He also wanted to know if these two people were there for the same reason as him.
"Brother!" Xue Zichen frowned. "What's going on? Say something! "
She anxiously stomped her feet. "Why was that Meng Qi also there?"
She pouted slightly, a little unhappy.
Ever since that time in the Apricot Forest, Meng Qi showed his extraordinary talent in front of so many medical cultivation sects and received the recognition of Senior Lin Yan, whether it was the elders in her family or friends, they all seemed to like to compare her with Meng Qi.
In the past, she was the favored daughter of God. She was the most favored daughter of the Wind Alliance's Xue Family. She was also the most talented medical cultivator among the girls of her generation in the Wind Alliance.
Even her two sisters could not compare to her.
Xue Zichen was young and beautiful. She came from a noble family and was extremely talented. She was the Dao companion candidate that the young disciples of the Wind Alliance, and even the entire West Kingdom or the Three Thousand Worlds were very happy to choose.
But ever since Meng Qi appeared, people were very happy to compare the two of them when they talked about her.
Although she was still the apple of the Xue Family's Master's eye and was very likely to be the sister of the future Wind Alliance Master.
Everyone still respected her, spoiled her, and gave in to her.
But there were still some things that seemed to have become different.
Xue Zichen could not tell what was different.
When the elders looked at her, their gazes were still loving.
When her peers and friends were with her, they would still give in to her and envy her.
But there would always be one or two inadvertent moments when everyone would mention Meng Qi when they saw her.
Perhaps it was because the two of them were about the same age, or perhaps it was because before Meng Qi appeared, she was the most anticipated genius among the younger generation of female medical cultivators.
They would joke and say regretfully, "If it was you who passed the Apricot Forest Boundary test that day, your father would be very happy."
There would also be those young male cultivators who used to chase after her, curry favor with her, and adore her. They would occasionally mention Meng Qi in a teasing tone, saying that the elders in their families had also hinted that if they could become friends with Meng Qi, they must seize the opportunity.
It had to be known that the elders of these young male cultivators used to like and value her the most in their marriage!
Of course, there would also be close friends who had a crush on her brother who would ask her if her family really wanted her brother, Xue Chengxuan, to marry Meng Qi.
…
Xue Zichen could not help but stomp her feet when she thought of this.
She had her pride, and she could not help but secretly compare herself with Meng Qi.
She had heard her father talk about this trip to the Ten Extremes Mountain long ago and had made a lot of preparations for this. She believed that she would definitely perform better than most people, and perhaps even better than her brother. She would once again become the proud daughter of heaven that made her family and her father proud.
Of course, she would also leave Meng Qi far behind!
After all, she was the eldest daughter of the number one medical cultivator sect in the Three Thousand Worlds. What she had learned and seen since she was young was not something that Meng Qi could compare to.
She had only won against her once because of a coincidence and her luck.
Xue Zichen believed that as long as the two of them were given an absolutely fair competition, she would definitely not lose to Meng Qi.
Therefore, she worked very hard in the first three stages. She also believed that the time she spent was definitely shorter than Meng Qi.
Even when in the second stage, her brother helped Meng Qi because of the elders in the family and gave her the Xue Family's Spiritual Medicine Scripture, she still believed that she would not lose.
Meng Qi came from a small sect that she had never heard of. When it came to a real fair competition like this, it was impossible for her to lose.
But now …
Xue Zichen looked at her silent brother, and then looked at the six figures in the sky. Other than Meng Qi, the rest of them could be considered as geniuses of various sects and were famous.
But this Meng Qi!
Why was it Meng Qi again?!
Xue Zichen could not help but stomp her feet again!
How could this Meng Qi be so lucky? She could always get involved. What did she do this time?!
She clearly came out earlier than her … and even earlier than Li Che!
Xue Zichen looked around. Among all the medical cultivators here, she was clearly the first one to come out except for her brother!
"Brother!" Xue Zichen stomped her feet again and reached out to grab her brother's arm. "Why aren't you saying anything? What happened? "
Xue Chengxuan shook his head and said, "I'm not sure yet, but maybe …"
He hesitated for a moment, then strode towards Pei Mufeng.
Xue Zichen looked left and right, then quickly followed.
"Sect Master Pei." Xue Chengxuan cupped his hands towards Pei Mufeng.
"Fellow Daoist Xue." Pei Mufeng returned the greeting.
"I have a question to ask Sect Master Pei, I wonder if …"
Before he could finish, he heard Pei Mufeng say, "They didn't skip. They completed all the missions."
"As expected." Xue Chengxuan nodded.
"Brother." Xue Zichen looked at Pei Mufeng, then at her brother. She was a little confused. "You're saying …"
"Hmph —" A young man behind Xue Zichen snorted coldly. "What they're saying is that they didn't skip a single mission in the third stage that we just went through. They completed all the missions there."
"What?!" Xue Zichen was stunned and hurriedly turned around.
Behind her, the black-robed young man Chu Tianfeng and Qin Xiumo walked over side by side. The one who just spoke was Chu Tianfeng.
Beside them was the unhappy Sikong Xing.
"It seems that Brother Qin is the same." Xue Chengxuan smiled and looked at the black-robed young man.
"Brother, you're the same?!" Xue Zichen looked at her brother in disbelief. "But you …"
She opened her mouth, but suddenly couldn't say anything. Her black pearl-like bright and beautiful eyes suddenly widened.
Xue Zichen had always felt that her talent wasn't inferior to her brother's.
She even secretly compared the time she took to cultivate to reach the third realm of medicine. She actually took less time than her brother.
She was also ambitious. She also thought that if she was the eldest daughter in the family, her father would place high hopes on her, and the elders would secretly choose her as the future head of the family.
But now …
Xue Zichen felt that she was already very fast in the third stage. Just like Li Che, she only chose the easiest of the three most difficult missions. As for the rooms in front of her, she quickly realized that she only needed to treat one of them to skip the room on the opposite side of the same row.
She also secretly observed the time that her brother came out. She believed that he must have done the same as her, so he was only faster than her by an hour.
So …
Xue Zichen opened her mouth. In fact, no one asked her what happened, but her face quietly became hot.
It turned out that her brother didn't skip a single room, and didn't skip any of the last three most difficult missions?!
Even so, he was still faster than her by an hour.
It seemed that she still had a long way to go.
Her brother was really very powerful!
And this Meng Qi …
Xue Zichen thought and looked up at the figure in the sky. This Meng Qi was also very powerful. She was just a little slower than her.
If she also didn't skip any of the missions.
She silently calculated in her heart. If it were her, she definitely wouldn't be able to come out now if she didn't skip any of the missions.
Now, she might not be able to reach the last three rooms.
She …
Xue Zichen pursed her lips, and the hands hanging by her side quietly clenched a little.
She would work hard!
Even if she lost to her brother by a little, she would never lose to this Meng Qi, who was inferior to her in terms of background, sect …
She would become stronger and more powerful!
There hadn't been any movement in the sky for a while. The six figures were reflected in the sky just like that.
The xiuzhe on the grass discussed, and more or less came to a conclusion.
"Holy shit! Ever since we all got poisoned by the Drunken Dragon Grass in the last mission, and that person instigated us to kill each other, I felt that this place was very strange, and gave off a feeling that something wasn't right. As expected! We've been tricked again! "
"So at the beginning, what was the shortest time, and then differentiating where we were when we started climbing the Ten Extremes Mountain, was that also a lie?"
"Is there anyone who can explain whether it's a lie or not? If it wasn't for that hint, I wouldn't have been so smug when I found out that I could skip half of the missions, and ran so fast. "
"That's right, that's right. Can anyone come out and explain what's going on?"
"I say, don't rush. According to the rules of this broken place, it might not be a good thing to pick them out."
"Seconded! It might be a case of shooting the bird that sticks out. "
"That's right. Maybe the big shots of the Ten Extremes Mountain did it on purpose. Look at the six people, everyone saw it clearly. They also know who the other party is. Then the Ten Extremes Mountain will send another one. These six people will have a certain advantage in the next climb … … tsk tsk tsk. "
"I feel that it's really possible. If they want to give a reward, just give it directly. With this, everyone will know who is in the lead in the three missions. At that time, there might be people targeting them. The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind! "
"That's right, that's why it might not be a good thing."
… …
The xiuzhe discussed one after another.
At the beginning, after everyone knew the crux of the matter, they were still a little annoyed, and felt that they were tricked again.
But these six figures were hanging in the sky, and everyone saw it clearly. They also didn't see Pei Mufeng, Xue Chengxuan, and the others who came out already get any benefits.
Slowly, the thoughts of the xiuzhe started to change.
Some xiuzhe even faintly rejoiced in other's misfortune. After all, a place like the Ten Extremes Mountain, to put it nicely, after leaving, no one would know what happened inside. It was almost like there were no rules to restrict everyone.
Don't look at how Xue Chengxuan and Meng Qi had just saved everyone. When Meng Qi and Lu Qing Ran had a dispute, they would stand out to help her and firmly stand on her side.
But once it involved a real struggle for benefits, to these people, the sect's benefits and their own cultivation were still the most important.
Some people already started to ponder in their hearts:
— — Anyway, I won't take the initiative to attack those two. But the other few, if there's a chance, I can deal with them, right?
— — If there's really someone who doesn't care about anything and completely shed all pretense of cordiality to deal with them, it shouldn't be a problem if we don't step on them, and don't help them, right?
As time passed, the atmosphere on the grassland also became more and more solemn and strange.
Many xiuzhe stopped talking, and gathered in twos and threes with a few fellow disciples or good friends. From time to time, they would look at Pei Mufeng and the others.
Instantly, this place became a bit strange again.
"Why hasn't Meng Qi come out yet?!" Sikong Xing and the others naturally also felt the change here.
She stomped her feet a bit anxiously, and looked around: "Where did she go? The fourth stage hasn't opened yet, I keep feeling … … keep feeling … … "
She lightly bit her lower lip. Even she felt the change in the atmosphere.
Chu Tianfeng's face was even darker. As the Young Palace Master of Burning Sky Palace, he had seen more of this kind of thing.
The xiuzhe here could also draw their swords against fellow disciples. Not to mention a few outsiders who had a competitive relationship with them.
"Hey!" Chu Tianfeng leaned over and asked Qin Xiumo, "What do you think?"
"I don't think much." Qin Xiumo's expression was slightly cold, and his gaze was heavy as he looked at the xiuzhe who would secretly glance at him from time to time. "I will do my best … …"
He didn't say the last few words out loud.
Chu Tianfeng snorted lightly, his heart full of annoyance. Why had he been in such a hurry to come out? If something really happened later, he wouldn't be able to do anything, right?!
He paced back and forth in irritation. A cold light suddenly flashed through his eyes. He reached out with his left hand, and his long fingers spread. A red lotus appeared in the air above his palm: "If something really happens later, I will not be merciful."
When he finished speaking, he was gritting his teeth, but his voice was very cold.
Sikong Xing had interacted with them for a long time, but she had never seen this Young Palace Master of Burning Sky Palace like this.
She looked at Chu Tianfeng like this and unconsciously shuddered: "You … … what do you mean?"
"Alright." Chu Tianfeng did not answer her. The one who spoke was Qin Xiumo.
The corner of his lips rose slightly: "Just what I wanted."
"You?!" Sikong Xing was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
"You don't need to know. Chu Tianfeng made up his mind and was not as irritable as before. "This is what we need to do."
"What do you mean, Chu Tianfeng?!" Sikong Xing was not happy: "We can be considered friends of life and death, don't think about leaving me aside no matter what you two do!"
"Then you will know later." Chu Tianfeng glanced at her and said.
"You two are so annoying, can't you not keep me in suspense and say it out loud?!" Sikong Xing was dissatisfied.
The three of them had been standing some distance away from the crowd. They had also deliberately lowered their voices. Other than the three of them, no one else heard.
Sikong Xing still did not know what had happened, but she could see that the situation was more serious than she had imagined.
She also became serious, and warily scanned the surroundings: "Meng Qi will be fine, right? Why hasn't she come out yet? "
At this time, almost all the xiuzhe who had entered the Ten Extremes Mountain were here. Probably only Meng Qi had not left the third test.
As if to explain Sikong Xing's words, all the xiuzhe on the grass heard a light "ding — —" sound, and then a cold female voice sounded: "Ten Extremes Mountain Great Battlefield, prepare for battle, open!"
That voice was not loud, and very pleasant to the ears. However, there was no emotion, and it sounded as cold as ice.
Following the voice, the grass that had been silent for a while suddenly became noisy.
Ten Extremes Mountain Great Battlefield?!
What was that?!
The xiuzhe looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you. They could only see confusion and confusion in each other's eyes.
Everyone knew that once they left the Ten Extremes Mountain, they would not remember everything that had happened here.
However, after ten thousand years of inheritance, everyone naturally felt that since it was called the Ten Extremes Mountain, it was definitely used for climbing.
Great Battlefield, what was this?!
However, this place was not the respective sect of the xiuzhe, and no one came out to explain to them what was going on.
They heard that cold female voice continue to say: "The Great Battlefield will officially begin after fifteen minutes. The battlefield will be divided into two camps, the xiuzhe who passed the third test will be the Heaven Camp, the xiuzhe who did not pass the third test will be the Earth Camp."
Did not pass the third test?
The xiuzhe seemed to have understood something, and they all raised their heads to look at the sky. Then wasn't it obvious who was the Heaven Camp, who was the Earth Camp?
These people were still hanging in the sky.
So this was … … six against all of them?!
Some xiuzhe instantly rejoiced. It seemed that not passing the third test was not a bad thing. Who knew that this Ten Extremes Mountain would play such a trick?
Even if the other six were all geniuses, they had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers right now!
"I will announce the rules." That cold female voice continued to say: "First, the Heaven Camp and Earth Camp xiuzhe can use any method to attack the other party, including but not limited to divine weapons, talismans, poisons, poisonous insects and beasts … … After being injured, they can use medicinal pills, natural treasures, and talismans to heal themselves. The effect is the same as outside of the Ten Extremes Mountain. The Heaven Camp xiuzhe have three chances to revive, the Earth Camp xiuzhe will directly fail if they fail, and will have the chance to continue participating in the Ten Extremes Mountain's test. "
The xiuzhe were in an uproar again. In other words, as long as they lost, they would be directly sent away?
However, thinking about it, the other party had six people, even if each person had three lives, it would still be difficult. Added together, it would not even be twenty.
On their side, there were a hundred people. Even the sect members of those six people might not help the other party. After all, the Ten Extremes Mountain was a great help to the xiuzhe. If they could fight to stay, no one would be willing to give it up.
Most of the xiuzhe on the grass swept away their previous disappointment, and all of them became spirited.
Even if they had three chances, looking at the current situation, it was clear that their side had the advantage.
The Ten Great Sects of the Four Realms, each sect had three disciples that could enter the Ten Extremes Mountain. Adding on the extra spots given by Jingyue Sky, there were a total of one hundred and thirty xiuzhe that entered the Ten Extremes Mountain this time.
Among them, other than Meng Qi and Yan Xuan, the weakest was a complete yuanying xiuzhe. Among them, there were mainly fused soul xiuzhe, and there were even some strong xiuzhe that had just stepped into the Profound Void Realm.
These were the most promising and outstanding disciples of the younger generation in the ten great sects.
Any ten of them gathered together was a group of xiuzhe that could not be underestimated.
What's more, other than the six people on their side, there were a total of one hundred and fourteen xiuzhe.
There were spell xiuzhe, sword xiuzhe, and medical xiuzhe. No matter if it was attacking or defending, there would not be a problem.
Even if the sect members of those six people all chose to help them, they still had an absolute advantage.
The xiuzhe instantly became excited.
This was the Ten Extremes Mountain. To non-disciples of Jingyue Sky, it was an opportunity that could only be entered once every hundred years.
This time, the Ten Extremes Mountain opened once every ten thousand years. If they could win against the other party, the benefits that they could obtain in the Ten Extremes Mountain was absolutely unimaginable.
What's more … …
Some xiuzhe even had a trace of secret pleasure in their hearts.
Right now, the six people that were assigned to the Heaven Barracks, other than Meng Qi, were the true geniuses of the Three Realms' younger generation. They were the same generation that crushed them as they grew after they stepped onto the path of cultivation.
Even though not everyone would be jealous, since there was competition in the Ten Extremes Mountain.
Winning against the other party in such a relatively fair competition would also fill many people with anticipation.
Just as that icy voice finished announcing the first rule, the gazes of the xiuzhe became burning with anticipation.
But no one spoke first. They stood quietly on the spot, listening to that icy female voice continue: "Second, the Heaven Barracks will attack, the Earth Barracks will defend. If you cannot defeat the other party within forty four hours, exchange. "
The xiuzhe on the grass didn't do anything. Sikong Xing almost jumped up: "The Heaven Barracks will attack?!"
She couldn't believe her ears. She turned to look at Qin Xiumo: "You guys will attack?!"
"The six of you will attack, and we will defend with a hundred people?!"
She muttered and repeated this inconceivable rule: "But if it's like this, isn't it too easy to defend?"
Even she knew that the xiuzhe that could appear here were the elites of the elites.
Don't talk about six people attacking a hundred people. Even if sixty people attacked, they might not be able to defeat them.
This … … what kind of joke was this?!
And if they couldn't defeat them within forty four hours, the offense and defense would change.
That was the other way around, a hundred people attacking six people?
Th-th-this … … wasn't this easy?!
Sikong Xing blinked her eyes. Qin Xiumo's expression was also abnormally serious.
"Shidi." His shixiong Wei Yuanzhong walked to his side and grimaced: "I didn't think that the matter would develop to this step. What plans do you have?"
There was only him and Qin Shidi left on Cloud Treading Peak.
Wei Yuanzhong also knew that in terms of talent, he couldn't compare to Qin Shidi no matter what. If he had to choose one of the two to stay, for the sect, he would rather choose Qin Xiumo to stay.
Qin Xiumo glanced at him, his tone faint: "Let's talk about it when it starts."
"That's true." Wei Yuanzhong grimaced.
Right now, he really felt that this Ten Extreme Mountain definitely wasn't the holy cultivation ground that the outside world said it was.
He didn't know what kind of people were here. They could only hear sounds but couldn't see people. However, each one of them was unspeakably strange.
From the start, they had been tricked into taking the time to pass because they had to rely on this to determine their position in Ten Extreme Mountain.
Then the person that had been sowing discord before, now using this method to divide them into two groups and kill each other.
This really … … didn't seem like a holy cultivation ground at all.
It was more like someone had purposefully gathered them together, and enjoyed watching them kill each other.
Wei Yuanzhong looked at his shidi worriedly.
Sigh, there was no other way now. They could only take one step at a time.
"Third." This time, that female voice didn't make them wait too long, and quickly announced the next rule. "The six xiuzhe from the Heaven Barracks who passed the third challenge, for every twelve hours they persist, they will receive a Ten Extreme reward. When the battle starts, they will randomly receive three reinforcements. Regardless of the cultivation of the reinforcements, the reinforcements are limited to Perfect Spirit Severing. "
Three reinforcements, even if they were all Perfect Spirit Severing, it shouldn't be a big deal.
However, everyone had already confirmed that the six people in the sky were the xiuzhe from the Heaven Barracks this time. And they were from the Earth Barracks side.
Thinking about it this way, even if those six people had three more Perfect Spirit Severing helpers, it actually wasn't a big deal.
As for the Ten Extreme reward that was given every twelve hours, it probably wouldn't be too exaggerated. It definitely wouldn't be a reward that could help them completely destroy their own side. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a need to have a face-off battle like this.
"Fourth, after a Heaven Barracks xiuzhe dies three times, they can choose to join the Earth Barracks team, but they only have three chances."
Once this rule was announced, there was finally some reaction from the grass.
Those xiuzhe that clearly belonged to the Earth Barracks instantly went into an uproar — —
Poison! This rule was really too poisonous!
The person that could think of this rule was so scheming that it was terrifying.
To explain this rule, it basically meant that the first three people from the Heaven Barracks that used up all three of their lives could join the Earth Barracks.
That way, even if the Heaven Barracks lost in the end, they could still continue to stay in Ten Extreme Mountain.
They could even enter the Earth Barracks and obtain the final victory, and receive the benefits of this battle.
The present situation was that the Earth Barracks had an absolute advantage in numbers. The six people from the Heaven Barracks should be clear that their chances of winning were very small.
This way, before the battle even started, the Heaven Barracks might start to have internal strife.
Because what they were pursuing was not victory, but a quick death.
However, they quickly realized that there would definitely be corresponding rules and restrictions. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a need to fight. The other side didn't care who was more important, and could declare the battle over if three of them died.
"Fifth." As expected, that icy female voice quickly spoke and announced the next rule. "Earth Barracks xiuzhe that were saved by the Heaven Barracks medical xiu can join the Heaven Barracks. There is no limit to the number of people. Heaven Barracks xiuzhe that were saved by the Earth Barracks medical xiu will die once. "
"Hm?"
"Hm?"
"This is … …"
Many xiuzhe made puzzled sounds. This was a new rule, didn't there need to be restrictions on the previous rule?
But this way, it was relatively fair.
Even though the other side only had six people, they had two medical xiu.
One of them was the most outstanding youth of the younger generation of the Wind Alliance, the strongest medical xiu sect in the three thousand worlds. The other was the ancient great doctor Elder Lin Yuan, who had become famous in the three thousand worlds in the last year, and was personally acknowledged as a friend.
Some people even suspected that this rule was set up because of these two people.
This way, the other side could pull the xiuzhe on their side into the Heaven Barracks through saving people.
No wonder they were allowed to attack first even though they only had six people.
Thinking about it, if they defended first, with the current division of the camp strength, they might lose in the blink of an eye.
But if they attacked first for twenty-four hours, they might be able to accumulate a certain amount of strength.
The grassland became silent again. Overall, the five rules were more useful for the Earth Barracks, which had more people.
But after all, the other side had Pei Mufeng, Qin Xiumo and Xue Chengxuan, as well as Xu Ziyan from the Broken Space Sect. Moreover, they had three external aids, and the Ten Absolutes reward every twelve hours.
Adding on the fifth rule, it was hard to say what would happen in the end.
As for the Earth Barracks, they had the absolute advantage of numbers, and could use the fourth rule to pull the three people into their camp first.
If they could really do that, then there was basically no need to fight this time.
"The sixth rule, which is also the most important one." The cold female voice spoke again.
This time, she did not speak quickly. Slowly, she said one word at a time: "On the path of cultivation, Daozhang, please do not obstruct. Ten Extremes Mountain does not keep the weak, and does not keep people with weak hearts. Everyone, take care of yourselves."
This … … what did this mean?
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and became somewhat nervous.
Not keeping the weak was easy to understand. The meaning was clearly that the xiuzhe who lost in this great battle did not have the right to stay.
Then what did not keep people with weak hearts mean?
Everyone looked at each other, and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
"What does this mean?" Sikong Xing directly asked.
Not only did she have Chu Tianfeng, Qin Xiumo, Wei Yuanzhong, and Yan Xuan by her side.
"I'm guessing that this person means that we cannot purposely lose to the other camp." Wei Yuanzhong said thoughtfully: "Although this elder did not directly say it, but this way, those who have other thoughts and are scheming will probably not dare to act rashly."
"Is that so?" Sikong Xing nodded as if she understood, and then almost jumped up: "Then if I want to get injured from the start, purposely get saved by Meng Qi, and then join their side, is that not allowed?"
Wei Yuanzhong smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid so."
He could not help but look at the red-clothed girl again.
Sikong Xing was naturally very beautiful, and she was also generous and warm. She could say such things without restraint. She could say them as she pleased.
Such a person was probably not a xiuzhe from the Three Thousand Worlds, but more like something the yao xiu would say.
"But … …" Sikong Xing's brows were tightly knitted. "Meng Qi's side only has six people, even if they have external help, it's only nine people! There are more than a hundred people here, how can they win?! "
She turned back to look at Chu Tianfeng. The black-clothed youth was also frowning, clearly worried about the same thing as her.
It seemed that he had the same idea as her, but they did not think that there would be this last rule.
If they were really directly sent out of Ten Extremes Mountain from the start, then they might as well stay and see if they could help Meng Qi in other areas.
"Let's wait and see." Chu Tianfeng took a deep breath and said.
From the moment he remembered everything that happened in the past, he was no longer the arrogant and reckless youth who could not listen to other people's words in his previous life.
He could sacrifice himself, but he could not just leave without doing anything for Meng Qi.
"Okay." Sikong Xing hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "I think so too. Let's see what kind of situation it is first, then we'll decide."
"You … … be careful." Chu Tianfeng glanced at Yan Xuan, then looked at Qin Xiumo's eyes. "Remember what you said."
Qin Xiumo glanced at him indifferently, then walked forward.
Meng Qi had not appeared yet. Now he, Yan Xuan, Pei Mufeng, Qiao Ran, and Xue Chengxuan were temporary partners.
Pei Mufeng was alright. Qin Xiumo had met him in Starfall Sea, and he had a good impression of this young pavilion master of Starfall Pavilion.
As for the others, he reserved his attitude.
Especially now that it involved the battle of Ten Extremes Mountain, anything could happen.
Qin Xiumo could decisively kill the person who betrayed him with one sword, so he would definitely not be soft-hearted to others.
Yan Xuan quickly followed.
Qin Xiumo and the others gathered together. The surrounding cultivators all subconsciously took a step back, keeping a distance from them.
Although the battle had not started yet, the two camps were already starting to become distinct.
More than a hundred people stood on one side. In comparison, the five people on their side seemed so small.
"Ten Extremes Mountain Battlefield, open!" That female voice sounded again.
As her voice fell, more than a hundred light pillars descended from the sky, enveloping all of them.
In an instant, the grassland became empty. The more than one hundred practitioners who were here just now had all disappeared.
"Eh?" Qin Xiumo only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and he quickly heard a familiar voice by his ear. "You're here?"
"En." He immediately responded.
"Meng Qi?" Xue Chengxuan first looked around. They should be in a paradise now.
This paradise was not big. Other than the fact that the spiritual energy was especially dense, and even cultivators like them could quickly replenish their spiritual energy through breathing, there was nothing else special about it.
Meng Qi, who was dressed in a green robe, stood in the innermost part of the paradise. In front of her was a smooth stone wall that was about the height of two people.
The side of the stone wall that was facing everyone was so shiny that it could reflect their figures clearly.
Meng Qi's gaze swept across the five people in front of her. She also never thought that the final result of the third test would be like this.
"You heard what that person said just now?" Qin Xiumo asked. "Why didn't you go out?"
"En, I heard it." Meng Qi nodded. "There's not much time, I'll make it short."
They only had twenty-four hours, and she could clearly hear the cold female voice. Although she didn't know how the six of them could win in such a situation, for the time being, she still didn't know.
However, after thinking about it, Meng Qi also knew that the first twenty-four hours must be very important to them.
"After I finished the last task, I was directly sent here. This … "
She pointed to the shiny stone and said, "This is a huge piece of stardust. It was refined with daybreak flower juice for a thousand years."
"Daybreak flower? Stardust? " Xue Chengxuan could not help but step forward. He looked at the huge stone in disbelief. "No wonder the spiritual energy here is so dense. It seems that it's all because of this piece of stardust."
"What's a daybreak flower?" Qiao Ran asked.
He had not spoken much until now. It was only now that he spoke for the first time.
As Qiao Ran asked, he could not help but look at Meng Qi.
Master had warned him repeatedly that if this Meng Qi lost a single strand of hair in the Ten Extremes Mountain, he would send him to the sect's most dangerous and brutal Sword Ray Valley to train for ten years!
The Sword Ray Valley of the Broken Void Sect was a famous dangerous place in the entire Three Thousand Worlds. It was said that there were traces left behind by the ancient sword cultivator and formation cultivator's duel. It was extremely dangerous.
Although some people said that if a cultivator could come out of there alive, his sword technique would definitely improve greatly. In time, he would definitely be the world's number one sword cultivator.
But first, you have to be able to come out alive!
Qiao Ran knew that Master never joked with him. He subconsciously straightened his back.
In this moment of distraction, he did not hear Meng Qi's words clearly. He only heard her say, "… Pills refined with daybreak flower juice can allow people to speak their true thoughts."
Small Book Pavilion
"Then what is this piece of stardust that was refined with the Daybreak Flower Juice and placed here for?" Xue Chengxuan also asked.
"To see one's heart." Yan Xuan said slowly.
"Hiss …" Qiao Ran gasped and repeated, "To see one's heart?!"
He hurriedly took a step back as if he was afraid that something would be revealed.
Meng Qi could not help but smile, "It's not that magical. When I first arrived here, a voice told me that our three external aids would be obtained through this."
"Huh?" This time, everyone was curious.
Meng Qi took a step forward and said, "Among the six of us, we can choose three people ourselves, and then …"
She pointed to the side of the stone. There was a palm-sized box of red dye that looked like ink.
"After pressing the ink and sticking it on the stone, we can summon the person we trust the most in our hearts. He will become our external aid this time."
Meng Qi said again, "Of course, you heard it too. Even if this person is a Mahayana powerhouse, he only has the strength of a FenShen Paragon."
"I see." Qiao Ran nodded.
He looked around and asked, "Then, who will do it?"
Qin Xiumo shook his head and said first, "I can't do it."
The person he trusted the most was right in front of him and was about to fight side by side with him. There was no need to use this thing at all.
Xue Chengxuan was stunned and looked into Meng Qi's eyes, "The person you trust the most?"
"Yes." Meng Qi nodded and quickly explained, "It's the person you trust the most in your heart. You can completely trust him with your life. No matter what happens, you will never doubt him."
She repeated what she heard. Finally, Meng Qi had a good memory and repeated it almost word for word.
Then she thought for a while and said, "But considering what we will encounter next, there are already two medical cultivators here, Fellow Daoist Xue and I. My suggestion is that the best external aid we can recruit should be a Dharma cultivator or a Sword Cultivator."
Meng Qi thought that Xue Chengxuan was from the Wind League and was surrounded by medical cultivators.
It was actually not very suitable for their team to recruit another medical cultivator.
It was best to recruit a Sword Cultivator or Dharma cultivator who had stronger attacks.
"I can't do it." Sure enough, Xue Chengxuan shook his head.
But he quickly smiled bitterly and said, "It's not because I can only summon a medical cultivator, but because I don't have such a person who I can completely trust and don't need to be on guard against."
Meng Qi, Qiao Ran, and even Pei Mufeng and Qin Xiumo glanced at him.
"There's no other way." Perhaps it was because this was the Ten Extremes Mountain. No matter what he said, they would not remember it after leaving.
Or perhaps it was because of the upcoming battle, Xue Chengxuan also wanted to relax a little. At least he could be honest with these temporary teammates.
He spread his hands and said helplessly, "I'm the eldest son of the Xue Family of the Wind League."
As soon as he said this, Qin Xiumo and the others understood.
"I don't have one either." Yan Xuan's tone was indifferent. He was also the young sect master of Jingyue Heaven.
Maybe he did before, but after that time, even his father …
Yan Xuan's heart suddenly moved. He turned and quickly glanced at Meng Qi.
Then what about her? Should he trust her?
"Let me do it," Pei Mufeng said indifferently.
He stepped forward and stood next to the stardust stone. He asked, "You're using this, right?"
He paused and suddenly asked, "What if someone I trust is in the Earth Barracks?"
"Your junior brother?" Meng Qi suddenly thought of something and asked, "Xu Zijun?"
"Yes." Pei Mufeng nodded.
"Is that so …" Meng Qi had not thought about this before. She hesitated slightly and quickly called out, "Senior, are you still there? Senior? "
"I'm here." After a while, just as Meng Qi was about to call out again, a voice sounded. "What?"
This voice belonged to the person who gave Meng Qi the Red Karmic Fire Lotus in the first stage of the poison swamp.
"May I ask what will happen if the reinforcements we call out are from the Earth Barracks?" Meng Qi asked.
"It won't happen.
Meng Qi gently stuck out her tongue. She had already realized that this senior's temper had obviously become much more irritable when they met again this time.
"Ha, even if you pull three people over from there, the outcome will be the same. So hurry up and die, "the person said again.
Meng Qi spread her hands with a helpless expression.
She actually did not hate this senior, except that his words were a bit strange. In terms of sarcasm, he was not as good as Ji Wujiong.
Moreover, the other party had given her enough benefits. If it were not for that Red Karmic Fire Lotus, perhaps she would have been trapped before the start of the second stage with no way out.
After that person finished speaking, he disappeared.
Pei Mufeng reached out and gently pressed on the box, then reached out and pressed on the stardust.
Specks of starlight flew out from the Stardust Stone and entered his chest.
Soon, those specks of starlight flew out of his chest and returned to the stardust.
With a soft "whoosh", a tall and handsome young man walked out of the stardust.
"Senior Brother?!" Xu Zijun looked at everyone in surprise. "Fellow Daoist Meng, Fellow Daoist Xue? You guys … Why am I here? "
"In short, you're now one of us," Meng Qi said.
"This …" Xu Zijun was still confused. Pei Mufeng led him to the side. "I'll explain. You guys continue."
"Okay." Meng Qi nodded. Xu Zijun was also someone who had fought side by side in the Starfall Sea. It was great that Pei Mufeng trusted him so much.
"Then …" Meng Qi looked at Qiao Ran.
This was an expert from the Space-Breaking Sect. It would be good if another sword cultivator could come.
"Can you?" Meng Qi asked.
"I …" Qiao Ran choked for a moment. "I can, but …"
He didn't know how to explain it to Meng Qi.
"Then you go first." Meng Qi waved his hand. "Please."
"But …" Qiao Ran took a step forward and looked at the red box hesitantly.
"What's wrong?" Meng Qi asked.
"It's …" Qiao Ran said, "Before we came here, the person that senior said was at most at the peak of the Spirit Severing Stage."
"Yes." Meng Qi nodded.
"I'll tell you the truth. The person I trust is very strong now, really strong. But I don't know what he'll be like when he's at the peak of the Spirit Severing Stage. "Qiao Ran was a bit cautious. He really didn't dare to relax at all when it came to Junior Sister Meng Qi.
And to be honest, he was nervous when he thought about how he might call for reinforcements.
"It's okay." This time, it was Pei Mufeng who spoke. "The peak of the Spirit Severing Stage is enough."
He had already quickly explained the whole matter to his junior brother and walked back side by side with Xu Zijun.
"Then …" Qiao Ran put his hand into the box and gritted his teeth. "Then I'll call for reinforcements."
Meng Qi: "…"
When they first met this Qiao Ran, he was following behind the powerful Sect Leader Ling Ji from the Space-Breaking Sect. He looked very strong and cold.
But he wasn't.
Qiao Ran's hand was already on the stardust stone.
The same specks of starlight danced. Then, with a soft "swoosh", a man in a green robe strode out of the stardust stone.
Meng Qi: "???"
Meng Qi: "!!!"
The person who came was wearing a green robe and a tall hat. Even though he looked to be in his forties, his hair was still black. His handsomeness didn't lose to the younger generation here.
The sleeves of his robe drooped down and covered his hands.
Even though his hands were empty, this person was like the sharpest sword in the world. Even when Pei Mufeng stood in front of him, his sharpness seemed to be overshadowed by him.
Qiao Ran had already turned around and bowed respectfully to the person. "Master."
Meng Qi didn't expect that the person Qiao Ran trusted the most was his master, the new Sect Leader of the Space-Breaking Sect. Ling Ji was the one who had strangely stopped her and told her that her talent in swordsmanship wouldn't lose to anyone.
Ling Ji's cold gaze swept around and finally landed on Meng Qi's face.
He was startled. When he opened his mouth, his voice was slightly hoarse. "Little … Meng Qi."
What is Little Meng Qi?!
Meng Qi couldn't help but complain in her heart. She bowed to Ling Ji. "Sect Leader Ling."
"Hmm? Hmm … good. "Ling Ji was startled again, but still nodded." What are you guys doing? "
Meng Qi glanced at Qiao Ran. The young man had already retreated to the side obediently. He lowered his head and closed his eyes like an old monk in meditation. His eyes were focused on his nose and his nose was focused on his heart. He had made up his mind not to say anything.
She had no choice but to explain the whole situation quickly. Finally, she said, "So we might have to trouble Sect Leader Ling to help us deal with the people from the Earth Barracks."
"It's no big deal." Ling Ji nodded indifferently and said regretfully, "It's a pity that I'm only at the Perfection of the Spirit Severing Stage. If I could reach the Insightful Emptiness Stage, even if it's only at the first level …"
He raised his chin slightly. His tone was light but full of pride. "Not to mention that there are only a hundred of them, even if there are a thousand of them, what's there to be afraid of?!"
Qiao Ran, "…"
Meng Qi bowed again. "Thank you, Sect Leader Ling."
She stood up. The first two people were unexpectedly successful. One was Ling Ji, and the other was Xu Zijun. It could be said that their combat power had doubled.
"There's one more person." Xue Chengxuan looked at Meng Qi. "Meng Qi, you're coming?"
"Hmm." Meng Qi nodded.
She took a deep breath and stepped forward.
Who should she choose? Xing Xing? She would definitely be very willing to go with her.
Besides, Meng Qi actually trusted Li Che a lot. Even though Li Che liked Lu Qing Ran a lot in her previous life, he was kind and had never hurt her.
Actually, there was one more person …
Meng Qi's eyelids drooped slightly. Her long eyelashes drooped, covering the light in her eyes. The person she trusted the most was naturally Qing Yanzhenjun.
But no, he probably couldn't be distracted now. She couldn't disturb him either.
Meng Qi thought as she raised her palm and pressed it lightly on the stardust stone.
Xing Xing …
She thought in her heart that Sikong Xing was the best choice. He would definitely be very happy to be with them.
Bits of starlight flew out from the stardust stone and entered Meng Qi's chest.
She felt a little strange, and even her chest seemed to have become much warmer.
After a long time, the bits of starlight flew away from her body and entered the stardust stone.
"Ha —" Meng Qi suddenly heard the senior's voice again. "Naive!"
She quickly looked around and found that everyone was looking at her quietly. It seemed that they didn't hear the voice at all.
What naive?
Meng Qi was at a loss.
However, before she could think more about it, the stardust stone made a soft sound and ripples appeared on the mirror-like stone.
A slender hand stretched out from the stone.
The hand definitely didn't look like a woman's hand. It was clean, beautiful, and the nails were neatly trimmed. However, it was obviously much bigger than Sikong Xing's hand.
Meng Qi's heart jumped to her throat. "Thump, thump, thump", it instantly beat very fast.
The girl in red didn't appear as she imagined. After the hand, what followed was a corner of a white robe's sleeve.
Before Meng Qi could think more, the white-robed man had already strode out of the stardust stone.
Qing, Qing Yanzhenjun?!
Meng Qi heard the senior's voice again. "Haha, I said it's the person I trust the most, so it's the person I trust the most. Little brat, this is Shijue Mountain. Do you think it's a market? You still have to pick and choose for yourself! Naive! "
Meng Qi: "…"
Yun Qingyan's gaze suddenly looked behind Meng Qi, at the empty stone wall of the Blessed Enclave.
Meng Qi subconsciously followed his gaze, but saw nothing.
"Damn! This little brat is actually getting more and more powerful! " The voice suddenly exclaimed. "I'm leaving. Enjoy your 48 hours, because you'll soon realize that this is your final happiness. Hahahahaha …"
Amidst the extremely arrogant laughter, the voice seemed to be getting further and further away. Finally, it turned into a gentle breeze and disappeared.
His last sentence was obviously heard by everyone. The few people in the Blessed Enclave didn't even have time to be curious about who Meng Qi trusted the most with Yun Qingyan. They were fully alert first.
"Qing …" Meng Qi only called out one word before quickly shutting up.
She wasn't sure if Yun Qingyan would be willing to let these people know his identity and life.
"Hmm?" Yun Qingyan heard this and looked at Meng Qi.
When he looked at the person from Shijue Mountain who spoke just now, his gaze was as cold as frost, causing that person to be unwilling to look directly at him.
At this time, when he looked at Meng Qi, the coldness had already dissipated. It was as if spring had returned to the land, warm and genial like the spring breeze.
"Little Qi?" Yun Qingyan looked at Meng Qi's troubled expression and called her gently.
Meng Qi: "???"
She immediately shuddered.
What did Qing Yanzhenjun call her?! Little Qi?!
This, this, this … She was called Little Qi in the Heavens Beyond Heaven, but she used to call the little white tiger Little Qi.
She also knew that the little white tiger was Qing Yanzhenjun.
But … but it was still a little strange!
Ling Ji's eyes darkened.
His sharp and cold gaze sized up Yun Qingyan from head to toe, as if he couldn't wait to use this gaze to pierce countless small holes in her body so that he could see her internal organs clearly.
The person Meng Qi trusted the most was this guy?!
He couldn't tell his cultivation level … Oh, this was only the perfected Spirit Severing stage, which meant that his cultivation level was at least above the perfected Spirit Severing stage.
He also knew many young cultivators who were famous in the Three Thousand Worlds, especially those talented youths from large sects. Ling Ji knew almost all of them.
This person obviously didn't belong to any large sects.
Who was he?!
Why did Meng Qi trust him so much?!
What was their relationship?!
Countless questions flashed through Ling Ji's mind instantly. If he didn't know that this Ten Extremes Mountain test should be very important to Meng Qi, he wanted to pull this guy out now and test his cultivation level first.
He wanted to gain Meng Qi's … trust!
If he wanted to call Meng Qi "Little Qi" in front of him, then he had to get past him.
Meng Qi looked around and suddenly realized that everyone was looking at her and Yun Qingyan.
She didn't think much of it at first, but the other party just called her "Little Qi" …
Meng Qi's face turned red immediately!
Qin Xiumo: "…"
Ling Ji: "…"
Xue Chengxuan: "…"
Qiao Ran: … I'm a little scared! Master seems to be about to explode!
Meng Qi hurriedly pulled Yun Qingyan's sleeve and led him to a corner.
She also knew that this place was only so big. No matter how soft her voice was, those people should be able to hear her. However, she still lowered her voice as much as possible and quickly explained the whole thing.
In the end, Meng Qi put his hands together and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Qing Yanzhenjun. I asked Xingxing to come over, but the stardust stone refined by this Tianming Flower still sent you over."
She raised her hands high above her head and lowered her head with a red face. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You must be very busy right now. I shouldn't have disturbed you."
"It's okay." Yun Qingyan looked at Meng Qi in amusement. His voice could tell that he was in a good mood. "I haven't started yet. We will only start after you finish here."
"Huh?" Meng Qi's eyes widened in surprise.
"That's right. That's why I'm completely free now. I can help you fight this round." Yun Qingyan smiled. He finally couldn't help but reach out and gently place his hand on Meng Qi's head.
He rubbed her hair in a good mood. "Don't worry. I'm here. We'll definitely win."
"Thank, thank you, Qing Yanzhenjun." Meng Qi stammered her thanks.
Actually, she had never seen Yun Qingyan like this before.
Even she could tell that Yun Qingyan was in a good mood right now. If he hadn't said it himself, the fight for the Demon Lord Token had not started yet.
Meng Qi would even think that he had already won this fight for the Demon Lord Token.
"Don't worry." Yun Qingyan smiled at her and rubbed her hair again. "Just be good and stay by my side."
As he spoke, he held Meng Qi's hand and led her toward Ling Ji and the others. "Let's go."
"We're … leaving just like that?" Ling Ji didn't speak, so Qiao Ran could only take the lead for his master.
"Otherwise?" Yun Qingyan glanced at him and asked lazily.
"There are more than a hundred people on the other side." Qiao Ran was stunned.
He didn't know why, but the other party's strength was at the peak of the Spirit Severing stage, just like him.
But standing in front of this person, he felt as if he was standing in front of his master who was at full strength.
That kind of strong and suffocating pressure, even if this white-robed man looked lazy and didn't seem to be aggressive, he couldn't ignore it at all.
"Ha —"
"Ha ha."
This time, the laughter came from Yun Qingyan and Ling Ji at the same time.
Qiao Ran: "…"
He'd better shut up obediently!
Qin Xiumo's gaze fell on Yun Qingyan and Meng Qi's hands that were holding each other. "Meng Qi, who is he?"
He suddenly asked.
This time, everyone's eyes focused on Yun Qingyan again.
"He …" Meng Qi turned to look at Yun Qingyan. In her nervousness, she didn't notice that she was holding hands with the other party, looking intimate and ambiguous.
"I'm her Dao companion," Yun Qingyan said.
"What?!" Ling Ji almost jumped up.
With a "clang", his narrow, almost transparent life-bound sword immediately appeared beside him. "Tell, who, are, you?!"
Ling Ji's voice was colder and sharper than the blade.
He looked at Yun Qingyan coldly. He definitely didn't agree to this.
Just now, Qiao Ran had quickly told him what happened after entering Ten Extremes Mountain. His Meng Qi was innocent and kind. This guy had an unknown background, how could he be worthy of Meng Qi?
Yun Qingyan smiled faintly. He flicked his finger, and a bit of starlight slowly rose from his fingertip.
— If you want to fight, then fight. He was just too lazy to fight in recent years, but he was never afraid of anyone.
Meng Qi: "…"
Meng Qi: "Wait!"
She took a breath, looked at Qiao Ran, and then looked at Qin Xiumo and the others. She quickly said, "This is a long story. Let's talk about it after we get out."
She was explaining to Qin Xiumo.
As for the others, Pei Mufeng probably wouldn't care who she became Dao companions with. Xue Chengxuan, Xu Zijun, and Qiao Ran weren't very familiar with her either.
As for Yan Xuan, he probably couldn't be bothered with this kind of gossip.
"She has the final say." Yun Qingyan smiled faintly, not caring at all.
Meng Qi: "…"
"Little … Meng Qi." Ling Ji called out unwillingly. "Who is he? Were you deceived by him? "
"Deceived?" Meng Qi was stunned. She subconsciously took a step forward and stood in front of Yun Qingyan, facing Ling Ji herself.
She knew that Yun Qingyan was very powerful, very powerful.
She also knew that Ling Ji was also very powerful. However, no matter how powerful she was, she might still be a little weaker than Yun Qingyan. Ling Ji definitely couldn't hurt her.
She was completely subconscious. Before she could react, her body had already moved. "He wouldn't deceive me!"
Meng Qi's voice was slightly low, but it was extremely firm. "He definitely wouldn't!"
She repeated in a low voice.
Ling Ji: "…"
Meng Qi's eyes were clear and calm. She looked directly at Ling Ji without fear.
Actually, she was very polite. From the beginning to the end, she treated Ling Ji with the etiquette of a junior.
At first, she thought that the Void Breaker Sect was looking for her with ill intentions.
At this moment, she didn't mean to attack or offend her at all.
However, Ling Ji inexplicably saw two words of determination in her clear eyes.
Reverse scale!
It was as if the white-robed youth she subconsciously protected behind her, who was clearly more powerful than her, was her reverse scale.
Even someone as calm and elegant as Meng Qi would show her protective side when her reverse scale was touched.
He was a little … envious.
Ling Ji suddenly exhaled softly.
He knew what happened in the boundary of the Apricot Forest Competition. He even knew how Meng Qi entered Cool Breeze Valley, why she left there, and how she came to this point.
Perhaps this was what it meant to be pure and honest.
She would protect the people she wanted to protect. She would adhere to her own path.
She would return the favor with a peach.
Slowly, she had these trustworthy companions who supported each other by her side.
She even had a Dao companion now.
Ling Ji suddenly felt a little dispirited.
Meng Qi didn't need him at all!
Meng Qi really didn't need him at all now.
She had already relied on herself to enter the top competition among the young cultivators in the Three Thousand Worlds.
She could stand shoulder to shoulder with Pei Mufeng, his disciple Qiao Ran, and Xue Chengxuan of the Wind Alliance.
When they got out of here, she wouldn't need him even more.
"Shizun." Qiao Ran suddenly called out to his Shizun in a low voice.
Ling Ji finally came back to his senses.
He looked up. Meng Qi and the others had already walked a short distance away. Only Qiao Ran was still obediently waiting beside him, who was immersed in his memories.
"Let's go." Ling Ji waved his hand, and his lifebond longsword returned to his spiritual sea.
"Yes." Qiao Ran walked beside him respectfully.
It was a little quiet along the way.
Meng Qi and Yun Qingyan walked side by side.
Pei Mufeng and Xu Zijun walked on the left and right respectively. Their lifebond longswords also floated on their sides.
Qin Xiumo walked silently on the other side of Meng Qi, slightly further away from her and Yun Qingyan.
Xue Chengxuan was a little behind the two. About three steps behind him was Yan Xuan.
Ling Ji and Qiao Ran were at the back, some distance away from everyone.
"Shizun." Qiao Ran secretly glanced at his Shizun.
In fact, his Shizun didn't deliberately hide the matter between Meng Qi and his Shizun, so he could more or less guess.
He had followed Ling Ji for a long time and had always been the disciple he admired the most. Ling Ji treated him very well, so he could more or less guess his Shizun's thoughts.
"What's the matter?" Ling Ji asked lightly. His tone sounded rather forced, as if he had lost interest in everything in an instant.
"In my first year, I was the last in the seven hundred disciples assessment, but Shizun liked me and took me in. I have always been grateful," Qiao Ran suddenly said.
"You have talent. I can see your talent. It's nothing," Ling Ji said.
"My talent gradually showed after practicing the sword for a year," Qiao Ran said. "But in the first major assessment three months after entering the sect, no one was willing to take me in. In the assessment half a year later, I still failed. In the assessment in September, no one was interested in me, and I was the last in the assessment again. " Qiao Ran smiled bitterly. "Later, Shizun also said that my perseverance was also one of my talents."
He wasn't a true genius like Yan Xuan, Pei Mufeng, or Qin Xiumo here. He wasn't the kind of genius who would amaze people as soon as he stepped onto the path of cultivation.
In the first year of Qiao Ran's sword cultivation, he was looked down upon.
If it wasn't for his extremely firm mind, he would have almost given up.
Then now, there probably wasn't the first disciple of the Broken Void Sect who finally mastered his sword arts and completed his natal sword, shocking the entire West Kingdom with a single sword strike.
So he could actually understand Ling Ji's sudden desolation.
Geniuses almost never suffered setbacks.
For example, when he was young, his Shizun Ling Ji had once shocked the world with a single sword strike, causing countless beauties and experts to scramble for him.
He probably never experienced the feeling of being unappreciated and unvalued when he was willing to show goodwill.
Ling Ji suddenly froze.
He stopped walking and turned to look at his disciple.
Qiao Ran didn't dare to raise his head, only daring to quietly look at the tip of his shoes.
"Ha …" Ling Ji suddenly reached out and patted Qiao Ran's shoulder, striding forward.
"Little Meng Qi," Ling Ji walked to Meng Qi's side, pushing Qin Xiumo to the side. "What are your plans?"
Meng Qi turned to look at him. Seeing Ling Ji's expression return to normal, he said, "We're going to go take a look at the situation at the Earth Barracks."
As they spoke, the group had already followed the mountain path to the mountain peak.
The paradise they were at just now was originally very close to the mountain peak.
At this time, the nine people walked to the edge of the cliff at the mountain peak, overlooking the earth, feeling full of pride.
Then …
Meng Qi couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Opposite them was another mountain, but that mountain was much shorter.
The mountain peak was a large piece of flat land, on which stood a small city.
Although the city wasn't big, it had city walls, watchtowers … everything one could think of. In addition, the mountain path was steep, and the city was surrounded by cliffs on three sides. Only one side had a road leading to the city.
The terrain looked very steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"This … is a bit of a joke." Qiao Ran had already returned to normal.
He was more familiar with the others now. Even in front of Master, he was much more lively than when Meng Qi first met him.
"There are defensive Dharma treasures on the city walls," Xu Zijun said.
He was also a member of the Earth Barracks and had stayed in the city before. "You can use Dharma treasures to activate the defensive array on the city walls. The array is very old. There are also disciples of the Heavenly Sea Pavilion and the Broken Space Sect in the Earth Barracks, but they can't recognize what the array is. They only know that its defensive ability is very strong, and I'm afraid it's very difficult to break. "
Meng Qi: "…"
She silently glanced at Yun Qingyan.
In front of probably the strongest array master in the world, there wouldn't be an array that couldn't be broken. Even if it was an array against an array, she believed that Yun Qingyan wouldn't lose.
Receiving her gaze, Yun Qingyan lowered his hand and held her hand again.
Meng Qi blushed again.
She still felt that it was a bit strange. In front of so many people, holding hands with Qing Yanzhenjun, there was a kind of …
She couldn't describe it. It wasn't hate, nor was it fear.
In short, it was very, very strange.
It made her feel that she should break free, but she also felt that there was nothing wrong with holding hands like this, as long as he was happy.
Yun Qingyan was obviously happy. He waved his hand. "The array is nothing to worry about."
Xu Zijun: "…"
He looked at his senior brother. He didn't know how to respond.
"That's right." Ling Ji also stepped forward and stood on the other side of Meng Qi. He looked down at the city and said nonchalantly, "The array is nothing to worry about."
Xu Zijun: "…"
He knew who Ling Ji was. He was the big shot who injured five of his senior brothers with a long sword and took the position of sect master of the Void Breaker Sect that had been vacant for ten years.
He was also the one who shocked the Four Realms when he was young. Even though the Void Breaker Sect was known for its sword array, he still single-handedly suppressed all the sword cultivators of the same generation in the Three Realms.
Alright, he was nothing to worry about.
Xu Zijun was silent for a moment and continued, "There are three main checkpoints in the city. Not counting the defensive array on the city wall, there is a stone pillar at each of the four gates. The east, west, north, and south are connected and can release different spells, wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, with amazing power."
"Further in, there is a poison array formed by poisonous insects and flowers. Inside the poison array is a sword array, and the sword array is guarding the City Lord's Mansion. "
Xu Zijun said in one breath, "According to the rules, we have to get the City Lord's Mansion to successfully attack the city. So … "
He paused for a moment.
Actually, he shouldn't be the one to speak here, but he was the only one who went into the city.
Fortunately, he was here. Otherwise, the attackers would definitely be attacked by the Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning spell stone pillars as soon as they attacked the city.
Even if they were lucky enough to enter the city, they would easily fall into the trap of the poison array.
Not to mention, there was still the extremely powerful sword array behind.
"Then don't we have to wait here for 48 hours and wait for the situation to change? Then it would be easier for us to defend the city?" Xue Chengxuan frowned.
Why did he feel that this sounded like an impossible mission to complete?
Even if they added the three reinforcements, they only had nine people here.
"I'm afraid not." Xu Zijun shook his head, "The defensive array, spell stone pillars, poison array, and sword array are indeed powerful. But they all need cultivators to activate. We have too few people. "
He explained, "For example, the spell stone pillars of the Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning spell stone pillars. If we want them to help us attack the enemy, each stone pillar needs four people to inject spirit energy at the same time to activate the power inside."
"It's the same for the arrays on the four city walls. Each wall needs three people."
"The poison array needs six people, and the sword array needs nine people."
Xu Zijun said, "If there are only nine of us, we can only retreat and defend the sword array. But if there are too many of them, the sword array can't continue to protect us if one of us is injured. "
He shook his head, "If there are too few people, those things won't work."
"No wonder we attacked the city first." Xue Chengxuan pondered and said, "One of the rules is that if the people we injured are saved by Meng Qi or me, they will be considered as people on our side. This way, we can use the 48 hours to think of a way to increase the number of people on our side."
Qin Xiumo said, "If we gather the power of nine people, we can attack one wall."
"That's right." Xue Chengxuan nodded.
"The five of us can attack one wall." Yan Xuan suddenly said.
The three of them were all nurtured as future sect masters by the sect. They were quite talented in commanding.
"They know we have nine people on our side. If all nine of us attack together, they won't have anything to worry about. They don't need to defend the city lord's mansion, the sword array, or the poison array. They don't even need to defend the other three walls." Yan Xuan said, "They have more people. This is disadvantageous for us."
"That's right." Xue Chengxuan nodded.
Other than Ling Ji, Qiao Ran, and Yun Qingyan, everyone here knew the reason why Yan Xuan was injured.
He naturally wouldn't look down on the young master of Mirror Moon Heaven who was only at Qi Refinement Realm.
Xue Chengxuan pondered for a moment and said, "Me, Daoist Qin, Sect Master Pei, Daoist Xu, and …"
He turned to look at Ling Ji. He didn't dare to command the sect master of Broken Space Sect, their senior.
"Me?" Ling Ji said, "Are you sure you want me to appear from the start?"
He suddenly curled his lips and looked at Xue Chengxuan with a smile that wasn't a smile. "Are you sure you don't want to give them a 'surprise'?"
"If senior suddenly appears and attacks one of the walls, they will definitely be very surprised." Xue Chengxuan bowed respectfully to Ling Ji. "This way, we might be able to take advantage of them. This can also be considered a 'surprise', right? "
He said politely to Ling Ji, "Moreover, when they see senior here, they won't immediately remember that senior's cultivation is currently sealed at the perfected Spirit Severing Stage. With senior's reputation, we should be able to catch them off guard. "
"Alright." Ling Ji nodded slightly. Suddenly, he glanced at Yun Qingyan. "You, come with me!"
He suddenly said.
"Alright." Yun Qingyan also nodded. "Then, Little Qi, replace Xue Chengxuan."
He slightly raised his chin at Xue Chengxuan.
"This …" Xue Chengxuan muttered.
Even if Ling Ji was here, even if they could catch the other party off guard, the other party had more than ten times their number after all.
He was a little worried about Meng Qi.
"Alright." Meng Qi had already nodded.
"But Meng Qi …"
Before Xue Chengxuan could finish speaking, Yun Qingyan had already interrupted him.
He looked at the eldest son of the Xue family of the Wind Alliance. He was the master of the Heavens beyond Heaven. No rumors in the Three Thousand Worlds could escape his ears.
Moreover, Xue Chengxuan, this brat, rolled his eyes. Even if he was blind, he wouldn't be able to see that he harbored ill intentions towards Meng Qi.
"I personally taught her," Yun Qingyan's tone was slightly cold. He looked at Xue Chengxuan with a faint smile. "She's more useful than you."
Xue Chengxuan: "…"
"Moreover," Yun Qingyan said, "in the face of such an array attack, I can still protect her."
His tone even sounded a little arrogant.
If it were someone else, Xue Chengxuan might feel that the other party was a little arrogant.
However, he had also come out of the Starfall Sea with Meng Qi and the others. From the words of Su Junmo and Sikong Xing, he had already vaguely guessed the identity of the man who had an ambiguous relationship with Meng Qi.
Xue Chengxuan's hands clenched slightly at his sides, but he quickly relaxed them.
There was no trace of unhappiness on his face. If this was really the important person he guessed, as the future master of the Xue family, he couldn't be offended, even for the sake of the family.
"Alright." He was silent for a moment before replying in a deep voice.
Yun Qingyan seemed to have guessed that he would do this. He smiled lightly and walked to the edge of the cliff with Meng Qi's hand.
"Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning Pillars, then the Poisonous Insect Array, then the Sword Array …" He whispered to Meng Qi, "What do you think?"

"The Four Extremes?" Meng Qi blurted out in a low voice.
"That's right." Yun Qingyan smiled faintly and looked down at the city.
He spoke to Meng Qi in a gentle tone, but his gaze wasn't soft at all. "It's a little interesting. Also … "
He suddenly paused.
"Hmm?" Meng Qi waited for a moment, but didn't hear anything else. He subconsciously asked, "What?"
"He doesn't like you." Yun Qingyan's voice was even lower. "What he loves most is his family, power, and status, and probably the position of the future leader of the Wind Alliance."
