It is quiet on Taixu Peak, and the spiritual mist in the purple bamboo forest is misty, with light clouds floating around, like a dream or an illusion.
In front of the wooden house, Ye Ling swung his wooden sword from the open space. The edge of the sword cut through the void, leaving a crisp sound of the wind.
Ye Ling meditated for three days and developed another Taoist bone, which greatly increased his strength. His body had been tempered by the innate Gangqi, and he had experienced several thunder tribulations, and he was better than many monks in the same realm. Even among people in the Yingchong realm, there are probably few who can have a stronger Taoist body than Ye Ling.
It can even be said that Ye Ling's Taoist body is the first level of tyranny below the Immortal Realm.
The blade of the sword roared in his ears, but Ye Ling's state of mind was extremely clear. After returning to Taixu Peak, he seemed to have thought about many things. His only thought now was to enter the Yingchong realm as soon as possible to make himself stronger.
Not long after, Ye Ling suddenly sheathed his sword at his side, turned around and bowed his hands to Chen Yan who didn't know when he was coming: "Master!"
Chen Yan stroked his beard and smiled and said: "I deliberately held my breath, but you were able to detect it. It seems that your consciousness is different from ordinary people, which is good!"
After being praised by Chen Yan, Ye Ling smiled slightly, walked over and asked, "Master, is there anything you can do?"
Normally, Chen Yan would only stay in the back mountain, and would come to the garden to look for his brothers unless something happened. That's why Ye Ling asked this question.
Chen Yan casually threw a token to Ye Ling and said: "From today on, you are the peak master of my Taixu Peak. Master, I am too lazy to hold that boring sect conference. I will leave this matter to you from now on."
"This...Master..."
Ye Ling stared at the token in his hand in a daze, wondering what Chen Yan meant by this move. To be honest, Ye Ling didn't care about Wentian Sect, and he never wanted to call himself a disciple of Wentian Sect. He only came back because his master Chen Yan was here and had an agreement with Wu Qing and Bai Wuyu. . Otherwise, he probably would never come here again in his life.
Chen Yan yawned and said to Ye Ling: "It seems that there will be some ceremony tomorrow to hand over the peak master. Please prepare. In addition, if you think highly of Master, I will be an elder in Taixu Peak instead of going to the sect. The door is trying to grab their spots.”
After that, Chen Yan ignored Ye Ling's wry smile and turned back to the back mountain.
Ye Ling stared at the Peak Master Token in his hand and sighed. He probably figured it out now. Chen Yan wanted him to return to Wentian Sect, so he came up with this method. It's just that he doesn't care about this peak master at all, but he will not disobey his master's orders.
After putting away the Peak Master's token, Ye Lingzhong danced the wooden sword again, and the sword energy appeared and disappeared in the void, causing the entire void to tremble continuously.
Early the next morning, Tianxuan Peak was dazzling with brilliance, and the sound of copper chimes echoed among the nine peaks of Wentian. The peak masters, elders, and supreme elders of each peak set off to the Tianxuan Peak Hall to participate in this event. Peak master handover ceremony.
In the square outside the Xuantian Peak Hall, many disciples stood in all directions and stopped to watch.
Wentian Nine Peaks are located in one direction, with the peak masters, elders, and princes sitting at the front. At the entrance of the main hall, the sect leader Gu Ningyuan was sitting, and next to him were the protagonists of this conference, Ye Ling and his master Chen Yan.
Among the eight peaks, no one came from Scarlet Fire Peak. There were only a few elders and a dozen disciples from Qingyu Peak, and the peak leader Hao Yue was not there. The masters of the other peaks are all present, but there are not many elders and disciples under them.
Logically speaking, such a handover of peak masters is one of the most important ceremonies in the Wentian Sect, and it should not have ended up in such a deserted scene.
Although part of the reason for this is because of Ye Ling and Chen Yan, but more importantly, Wentian Jiufeng is not as friendly as it seems, and Gu Ningyuan, the sect leader, may only be in name only.
When everyone from each peak arrived, Gu Ningyuan stood up and said loudly: "The handover ceremony for the master of Taixu Peak begins!"
After saying this, Chen Yan and Ye Ling stood up and went into the main hall to offer incense to the jade statue of the sect master. The jade statue is carved from the founder of the Wentian Sect, Li Wentian.
After the incense was finished, Chen Yan and Ye Ling returned to the square outside the palace. In front of the other eight peaks, Chen Yan handed the peak master's token to Ye Ling. After that, Gu Ningyuan began to announce to Ye Ling that he was asking for help. Sect rules, and some things that the Peak Master has to do.
After all this was done, Gu Ningyuan officially announced Ye Ling as the new master of Taixu Peak and Chen Yan as the elder of Taixu Peak.
Wang Muhua, the leader of Yumu Peak, Liang Shangkun, the leader of Split Earth Peak, and Lei Qing, the leader of Zidian Peak, were the first to step forward and send congratulatory gifts to Ye Ling. This is also part of the ceremony. It's a pity that only these three peaks among the eight peaks came forward to celebrate. Song Yue from Xuanjin Peak and Meng Guangyang from Yuanshui Peak have been chatting and don't seem to care about today's ceremony at all.
With a sullen face, Gu Ningyuan ordered his disciples to send congratulatory gifts from Tianxuan Peak, and then announced that today's ceremony was over.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a disciple from the team at Yuanshui Peak stepped forward and said, "This disciple has long heard about the young hero who is the new master of Taixu Peak. However, after practicing Taoism for several years, he has entered the Lingxu realm, and has even entered the Yingxu realm. None of the disciples in the Chongjing Realm are opponents. I am not talented, but I want to see the Taoism of Master Taixu on this happy day!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked over in shock. They saw the speaker wearing aqua blue Taoist robes, with water vapor rising from his body, and a myriad of Taoist charms. He had a confident smile on his face, and stared at Ye Ling with a pair of sharp eyes.
The leader of Yuanshui Peak, Meng Guangyang, was slightly surprised. It was obvious that he didn't know about this. He stood up and shouted: "Wu Zhendong, what are you doing? Why don't you back down!"
Wu Zhendong is a leader among the fifteen generations of disciples. It is said that his cultivation has already reached the Yingchong realm, and he can serve as an elder in Wentian Sect. It's just that this person thinks very highly of himself and is unwilling to give in.
Seeing Meng Guangyang's question, Wu Zhendong raised his hand and said loudly: "We all know that the master of Yifeng has a kind and kind character and a profound realm. I think the master of Yefeng is also like this. If a disciple wants to ask for advice, why shouldn't Taixu Peak dare to respond?" no?"
This remark bypassed Meng Guangyang and pointed directly at Ye Ling. If Ye Ling didn't dare to challenge, then the glory that belonged to him today would be trampled to the ground immediately and become the laughing stock of everyone.
Meng Guangyang looked angry. He didn't want Yuanshui Peak to have a head-on conflict with Taixu Peak. The lessons learned from Chihuo Peak were not far away. How could he, Meng Guangyang, not know about it? Ye Ling was not terrible, but he offended Chen Yan and was even wasted. Taoist, that's the really scary thing.
It's just that it's hard for him to have an attack now in full public view. A pair of eyes scanned the crowd, but did not find the person he was looking for, so he had to turn around and sit down, sulking. I just hope that Ye Ling will not accept the challenge.
Unexpectedly, Ye Ling took a step forward and looked at Wu Zhendong calmly: "If you want to learn from each other, I am willing to accompany you at any time."
"good!"
Wu Zhendong's eyes lit up and he said, "In that case, how about we go to the God of War Valley together?"
Ye Ling shook his head and said: "No need, we are just here, in front of everyone."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Ningyuan frowned. He knew Wu Zhendong's strength, but he was afraid that Ye Ling was no match for him. But when he looked at Chen Yan, he saw that Chen Yan had an impatient look on his face and didn't seem to be worried, so he felt relieved.
Hearing Ye Ling's words, Wu Zhendong sneered secretly, since you are asking for trouble, you can't blame me! So, he nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, let everyone in the sect see the new peak master's methods!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Zhendong's whole body momentum changed, and a wave of Taoist power soared into the sky. Then the water vapor in the sky began to condense, and the Kuishui Avenue evolved into the void. One after another, huge waves carried the supreme Taoist power towards Ye Ling.
Ye Ling stood with his hands behind his back. Seeing the big wave approaching, he slowly stretched out his right hand, pointed it as a sword, and slashed forward. But a sword energy suddenly burst out, cutting the oncoming wave in half and rushing to both sides.
When Liang Shangkun saw this, he waved his hand, and Dao Yun condensed into a phantom of a hill, blocking the big wave, and then he didn't rush into the crowd.
Liang Shangkun shook his head helplessly and said: "The juniors nowadays really don't know the depth. If you hurt others, how can you let it go?"
Lei Qing said with a smile: "If you are not good at learning, you deserve to be injured. But this boy Ye has such a sharp edge. No wonder my boy praised him so much. He seems to be a good prospect!"
When Wang Muhua heard this, he looked at Chen Yan. He had always admired Chen Yan's ability to recognize people.
In the center of the square, Wu Zhendong saw that his move was easily resolved by Ye Ling, and smiled slightly: "It seems that there are indeed two attacks, but this is just an opening, and the main course is next!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw the shadow of the sea rising over the entire square, and Ye Ling seemed to be on an isolated island in the waves, in danger.
Wu Zhendong stood in the void, and at some point he stepped down into this realm, shrouding Ye Ling in it. But when he reached out a little bit, the huge waves roared towards Ye Ling.
Ye Ling raised his brows and drew out the wooden sword behind his back. A crisp sword roar cut through the sky, and then the sword path filled the sky with its sharp edge and cut through the big waves, causing water droplets to fall one after another, losing its power.
But Ye Ling was also wetted by the water vapor, and felt a little embarrassed.
Wu Zhendong took his time and held out a flag. As soon as the flag was planted in the air, it immediately mobilized the entire sea to attack Ye Ling.
Ye Ling stepped on Xuantian's afterimage and flew through the waves. His sword edge kept cutting through the waves coming around him, and his figure kept getting closer to Wu Zhendong.
When Wu Zhendong saw this, his Dao power circulated around his body, and he clasped his hands together and slapped them down. The water vapor in the sky turned into two huge palm prints and slapped them towards Ye Ling.
Ye Ling swung his wooden sword horizontally, and a crescent-shaped sword energy broke through the void, and actually cut through the incoming palm print. But then, the palm print turned into water, pouring down towards Ye Ling, like heavy rain, making Ye Ling No place to hide.
Liang Shangkun, who was watching the battle, frowned and said in a deep voice: "Wu Zhendong has never used his full strength. Is there some plan to deliberately lure Ye Ling into the trap?"
Wang Muhua nodded and said: "I think this is what Wu Zhendong has in mind. He keeps using water to deal with Ye Ling, but does not confront the sword head-on. It seems that he wants to overcome strength with softness, but it is not the time to use force yet. He Waiting for the right opportunity.”
Lei Qing on the side shook his head and said: "Although this boy Ye is good at swordsmanship, he has too little experience. This defeat can polish his character, so it can't be said to be a bad thing."
Ye Ling wanted to fight with all his heart, and he used his body skills to keep getting closer to Wu Zhendong. When he came to the distance between Wu Zhendong's sword, the wooden sword in his hand was like a rainbow, waiting to be chopped down.
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhendong suddenly smiled, and then stretched out his hand to grab Ye Ling. The water vapor on Ye Ling's body suddenly burst out, turning into tentacles and tightly trapping Ye Ling's hands and feet.
Immediately afterwards, the water vapor came out and completely wrapped Ye Ling in the water, making him unable to breathe or break free.
Wu Zhendong smiled and stretched out his hand to play with a water balloon and said: "The softness overcomes the strong, and the yin controls the yang. I know the power of your sword, but no matter how sharp your sword is, can it cut off my soft water?"
In the water polo, Ye Ling's body was stuck tightly and could not move. Seeing that Wu Zhendong was approaching, it seemed difficult to escape.
