On Huqi Mountain, the seven-day Nascent Soul sermon has just ended. There are a lot fewer monks on the street. Most of them have gone to find places to practice, thinking of striking while the iron is hot and trying to break through the existing shackles of practice.
Someone succeeded.
Walking on the street, you will occasionally hear vibrating sounds from the distance. As the spiritual energy gathers, a lucky person breaks through the bottleneck of his cultivation.
Ling Xiao did not return to the residence inn immediately, but came to Huqishan Square.
This is the place where Nascent Soul preaches. Now the crowd has dispersed and it looks empty.
Ling Xiao walked around several shops facing the square, and then bought all the spiritual herbs on display. He spent nearly 200,000 spiritual stones in one go, but he didn't even blink an eye.
After walking out of the shop, he walked towards the inn and threw the spiritual grass into the Cave Heaven Paradise for the Hades Fox to plant.
The fact was just as he expected, with just a little "lure", the spiritual grass immediately began to chatter about the content of Nascent Soul's sermon.
Ling Xiao listened while returning to the inn, and also went to the gambling house to check the subsequent lottery results of the Chengyun Competition.
Return to the inn.
Nangong Zhu is still here, sitting cross-legged and practicing.
When Ling Xiao saw this, he silently criticized the security situation of this inn.
The owner is not here, how can we let people in at will?
"You still know how to come back?" Nangong Zhu stopped sitting cross-legged and sneered in a sinister way, "If you haven't listened to Yuanying's sermons these days, you deserve not to have this opportunity. Those Yuanying old monsters this year have been very detailed. , even I broke through a small bottleneck!"
"Yeah?"
Ling Xiao replied casually and yawned.
There was no doubt she was lying.
Judging from the content revealed by the Lingcao people, the content of the sermons in the past seven days was as "crude" as the old man named He said, and it was not of much help to Ling Xiao and Nangong Zhu at this stage.
It is right not to listen.
If you have this time, you might as well settle yourself and carefully review what the old man surnamed He said.
"Have you seen the draw?" Nangong Zhu asked again.
"I've seen it, so what?"
Ling Xiao was still careless, Minghu was taking care of the spiritual field and the spiritual pond.
The clone ceremony was delayed for seven days. The output of this round will definitely be greatly affected, and it must be repaired quickly.
"Of course the result of the draw is nothing. As usual, you will go to Chengyun Island for the final battle. You were drawn into District 13, and the opponents in the same district are relatively average in strength."
In the eighth round of the Chengyun Competition, which is the final battle, everyone will board the Chengyun Island for a 24-hour melee involving 128 monks!
There were no spectators or referees in this battle, just wanton violence and killing. It was an extremely cruel and bloody game.
Death or surrender means elimination, and the ranking will be determined by the order of elimination.
"Although you picked a good area, I must remind you that there is bad news for you on the black market."
After hearing this, Ling Xiao finally came back to his senses and looked at Nangong Zhu, waiting for her next explanation.
Nangong Zhu felt slightly proud, raised his chin and said: "Someone has posted a reward on the black market for your life. The reward is 2 million spirit stones. Now those poor ghosts are going crazy, and they are all preparing to hunt on Chengyun Island. I will kill you, especially the opponent who is drawn in the same zone as you, they are probably already planning to join forces."
Ling Xiao's face darkened.
A reward of 2 million spiritual stones?
What a generous act.
The identity of the person who can issue such a sky-high reward is self-evident.
"It seems that you night watchmen are not intimidating enough. How can you tolerate people openly offering a reward for my life?" Ling Xiao glanced at Nangong Zhu and said dissatisfied.
The old man surnamed He had promised him before that he had warned the Jindan ancestor of the Cai family, and the other party would not dare to take action against him again.
Unexpectedly, Ling Xiao was waiting for such a difficult situation.
Nowadays, the only way to kill Ling Xiao is in the Chengyun Competition.
And the sky-high reward of 2 million spiritual stones is higher than the prize money for the first prize in the Chengyun Competition. The contestants are already poorer than each other, so why not be crazy about it?
One can almost predict what kind of danger Ling Xiao will face on Chengyun Island.
The odds in the gambling house don't lie.
Previously, Ling Xiao's odds of winning the top prize were firmly in the top ten, but as soon as the reward was announced, he fell directly to the lower reaches.
The gambling house even offered a handicap on whether Ling Xiao would abstain.
Nangong Zhu sighed softly, "The ancestor of the Cai family offered a reward through the Red Clothes Sect. The Red Clothes Sect is eager for us to be defeated. It is probably not possible for Mr. He to come forward. How about you abstain? When Mr. He comes back, we will go directly Isn’t it safer to go to work in Wanmo Gusen than to stay here?”
Her well-intentioned suggestion was met with a blank stare from Ling Xiao.
"Abstain? I abstain. Will you give me the bonus?"
"You... are really ungrateful. I'm thinking about your safety! Since you want money rather than life, just pretend I didn't say that!"
Nangong Zhu snorted, and as expected, she stopped talking and continued to practice on her own.
After a while, she seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "By the way, Fairy Dong from the Chunyang Sword Sect came again two days ago. Let me tell you to go to the Chunyang Sword Sect's camp to find her. She has something to talk to you about. explain."
Ling Xiao was startled, then nodded and stood up.
Although he didn't know what the woman was looking for, but thinking of her soulless figure that day, Ling Xiao suddenly had the idea of going to see her.
"I'm warning you, you signed the contract, don't fall for the Chunyang Sword Sect's beauty trap. If you want to change your mind at this time, He Lao will have to kill you."
Nangong Zhu reminded again.
"rest assured."
Ling Xiao dropped the two words and went out.
Ling Xiao went out in his true form, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.
"It's Ling Xiao!"
"He hasn't shown up for several days. So he hasn't left yet?"
"You really want to participate in the final battle, right? Are you out of your mind?"
People were talking and whispering to each other, looking at Ling Xiao as if they were looking at a dead person.
In the dark corners, there were also some greedy and bloodthirsty eyes, fixed firmly on Ling Xiao, as if they were looking at a walking treasury.
A sky-high reward of 2 million spiritual stones!
99.99% of casual cultivators have never seen so much money in their lives!
Ling Xiao sensed those malicious glances, and a hint of sarcasm flashed across his lips.
OK, let’s see who is the hunter and who is the prey.
All the major immortal sects participating in the Chengyun Immortal Association settled near the square. The Chunyang Sword Sect occupied an entire mansion. The location was easy to find, and a large flag with the word "sword" hung high at the door.
Approaching here, a sharp pressure rushes towards the face, as if there are countless swords pointed at the center of the eyebrows, making people afraid to move forward.
Ling Xiao stood still at a distance and said loudly to the Chunyang Sword Sect disciple guarding the gate over there: "I am Ling Xiao, I came here at the invitation of Fairy Dong, please let me know."
