As the major holy places returned to Piaoxue City, strong men appeared one after another at the City Lord's Mansion to ensure that the conference could end successfully.
After that, we began to verify the number and value of the treasures obtained by each major holy place in the ruins of the ancient battlefield to rank them.
Because all the disciples involved in Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower had died in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, there were no treasures, so they were naturally ranked last, and the remaining five holy places were ranked.
The one who obtained the most treasures this time was naturally Guanchao Academy led by Li Xiuping, followed by Butterfly Valley, and finally Piaoxue City and Xianglu Mountain.
Because of the changes that occurred in the ancient battlefield, many original plans were completely disrupted, such as the plan between Xianglu Mountain and Piaoxue City, such as the deal between the senior Sword Master and Qi Wenxing...
In the end, Guanchao Academy won the first place and won the ownership of the ancient battlefield ruins for the next three hundred years. The city lord's palace handed over the control of the ruins to Li Xiuping.
At this point, this 300-year-old Seven Holy Lands Conference came to an end.
But because of what happened in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, although the conference was over and the issue of ownership of the ruins had been resolved, due to what happened in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, all the disciples in the two holy places of Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower died. Therefore, it is natural to find out all the truth about this matter and give an explanation to Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower. This is the responsibility of the City Lord's Palace.
As a result, all the major holy places were left in Piaoxue City, and they had to wait until everything was clear before they could leave.
Li Xiuping and others returned to the previously arranged residence and began to discuss specific response strategies.
At this moment, the blue-shirted swordsman walked directly into Li Xiuping's room and sat down opposite Li Xiuping.
Li Xiuping was also about to discuss with the senior sword master. When he saw that the other party found him first, he knew that this matter was far more complicated than he imagined.
After Li Xiuping poured a cup of tea for the senior sword master, he asked: "Senior, you should be able to guess what's going on, right?"
The green-robed swordsman nodded and said: "I can guess it, Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower can also guess it. The reason why they didn't take action is just because of the city lord's mansion."
He looked at Li Xiuping and continued: "But this only means that they will not do it openly, but it is difficult to tell secretly, so during this period, you'd better not leave here."
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "Thank you, senior. This time, not only did I fail to get any benefits for the Sword Washing Pond, but I also involved the Sword Washing Pond. I really don't know how to repay you."
The swordsman in blue shirt smiled and said: "Let's wait until we can leave this snowy country alive."
Probably because he didn't want to say too much, so as not to put too much pressure on Li Xiuping, he continued: "I will summon the strong men from the Sword Washing Pool as soon as possible. As for the academy, I'm afraid it will be too late..."
He paused and then asked: "There was obviously a huge change in the previous deliberate concentration. Can you tell me about it?"
Li Xiuping was stunned for a moment, hesitated a little, and then told everything that happened in the ruins of the ancient battlefield without hiding anything.
After hearing this, the swordsman in blue frowned, and finally said with a smile: "It seems that I made the right bet this time in the Sword Washing Pool."
After saying that, he stood up and said: "You can stay here with peace of mind. Even if I try my best to protect you from Piaoxue Country, the academy's support should arrive soon. With Qi Wenxing here, even if Taiyi Pavilion and If we join forces with Star Observation Tower, it won’t be easy for you to stay.”
Li Xiuping was stunned, then stood up and asked, "Juniors have many doubts. I wonder if seniors can clear them up?"
The swordsman in green shirt smiled and said: "I can only tell you that in you, you may be able to unlock many secrets that you have been pursuing for a lifetime. As for the others, I can't tell you because I don't know."
Li Xiuping frowned and nodded, lost in thought.
The swordsman in green shirt continued: "If there is anything, just ask the sword-washing pool to do it."
Li Xiuping said: "It's nothing, just collecting some materials, I want to build a fairy sword."
As soon as these words came out, the blue-shirted swordsman suddenly frowned, turned to look at Li Xiuping and asked, "How sure are you?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "I don't know, after all, it has never been built, but I think 40% should be there."
The swordsman in blue frowned slightly.
Forty percent is naturally not high, but it is certainly not low.
The key is that if Li Xiuping can really forge a fairy sword, the current situation will completely change, because after all, it is a magic weapon that even three mountains will be moved by.
Although the influence of an immortal weapon is not small, it is not to the extent that it can make Sanshan's heart beat. But if it is a person who can create an immortal weapon, the situation is completely different.
If Li Xiuping can really successfully forge the immortal weapon, not to mention those first- and second-rate sects, even the so-called Eight Sages and Seven Saints, and even the four cities will stand up and win over Li Xiuping.
Owning Li Xiuping is equivalent to owning countless immortal weapons, which can directly affect the pattern of the entire cultivation world.
Take the Seven Holy Lands as an example. One or two Immortal Weapons cannot bring about any change. However, if you can possess ten or more Immortal Weapons, then even if the Seven Holy Lands cannot directly compete with the so-called Three Mountains, they can at least completely overpower them. Above other holy lands, it becomes the true holy land.
An ancient battlefield ruins can be so fiercely contested by the seven holy places that they will even risk the danger to send their disciples into the ruins. They will even fight against other holy places to get the ownership of the ancient battlefield ruins. If Now that there is such a person who can easily change the ranking of the Seven Holy Lands, then they are willing to stand behind Li Xiuping and fight against other Holy Lands.
The blue-shirted swordsman retracted his thoughts and said: "I will ask people to collect all the materials as soon as possible. I will also communicate with the City Lord's Mansion to buy you more time. The worst is, the longer it is delayed, the Guanchao Academy Bian can also join you earlier."
Li Xiuping nodded and thanked him again.
After the blue-shirted swordsman left, Li Xiuping turned around and walked back, sat down and fell into thought.
Although the top priority is to forge the sword, he must also think about how to arrange it after the sword is successfully cast, and how to arrange it after it fails? He must ensure that he can escape the massacres from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower, and also find a way to ensure the safety of the disciples in the academy.
The Star Observation Tower is not close to Piaoxue Kingdom, so the strong ones who can arrive in a short time should be the ones we saw before. Taiyi Pavilion is closer to Piaoxue City, so they should be able to arrive at the academy. They appeared first before, but in a short period of time, there should be only those he had seen before.
Judging from the current situation, Xijian Pond is the closest to Piaoxue City, so even if Butterfly Valley won't help, Xijian Pond will have to deal with the strong men from Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower. The power of resistance.
However, just in case, he still needs to find out as soon as possible how many powerful people there are in Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower, and what their specific level of strength is. Only by understanding this can he make a better response plan.
As for the matter of my cultivation level, I'm afraid I have to let it go for now. After all, no matter how hard I try and what changes occur in my body, I will never be able to compete with the strong men in Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower in a short period of time. . Once faced with a strong person above the transformation stage, there is no chance of winning.
Although the hosta on the head can save life, it will only be activated when death is inevitable, and with the previous experiences, if the other party uses some means, it can avoid the hosta, so the hosta is The foundation is full of uncertainties. Whether it can inspire its inheritance depends entirely on luck.
Those so-called fairy treasures are fine for dealing with those in the Nascent Soul stage, but they are useless in front of those in the Transformation stage, let alone those who are more powerful than those in the Transformation stage.
Then there is the jade talisman given by the strong man from the demon clan. It is a good way to save life. If you encounter a strong person in the transformation stage and activate it to use it, even a strong person in the distraction stage will be difficult to lock in a short time. own whereabouts.
This thing is good, but it's a pity that it can only be used three times. Once Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Tower decide to take action, only three times will definitely not be enough.
As for the changes in the body and the so-called inheritance, even Li Xiuping himself didn't know what it was now, let alone expected it to play any role, so the best way was to forge a fairy sword.
As long as he can successfully forge a fairy sword, he can change the current situation to the greatest extent. As long as more forces can be involved, his life safety can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
At this time, everyone in the academy came to Li Xiuping's room. After knocking on the door, they saluted and said, "Uncle, we have something to tell you."
Li Xiuping, a disciple of the Academy, nodded and said, "Come in."
The four of them walked into the room, saluted Li Xiu at the same time, and took their seats.
Li Xiuping looked at everyone and asked, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
The four of them looked at each other, and then a disciple said: "The current situation, my junior uncle must know better than us. Although our academy won the first place and obtained the ownership rights of the ancient battlefield ruins for the next three hundred years, but If I want to bring them all back alive, I'm afraid..."
Li Xiuping frowned slightly, but before he spoke, another disciple said: "So we discussed it, as long as the junior uncle can go back alive this time. We know that the junior junior uncle has many ways to save his life, as long as he doesn't If you pay attention to us, you are very sure to go back, so we hope that our junior uncle can consider the academy and put himself first, and don't put himself in danger because of us."
Li Xiuping glanced at everyone and asked, "Is this what you want to say?"
Everyone nodded at the same time, then saluted Li Xiu at the same time, and said in unison: "Please agree, little master uncle."
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "You are really overthinking. I have already said that I am very afraid of death. This time I agreed to Uncle Liu and Brother Qi, it is actually just for myself. If it comes time to make a choice, I will definitely Save yourself first.”
The four people in the academy listened and really didn't know whether what the young master uncle said was true or false.
Along the way, they felt that they knew this young uncle quite well. Many times, he would always stand in front of them, blocking all dangers for them and protecting their safety, so they always felt that as long as they With this little uncle here, no matter how dangerous it is, we can solve it.
Later, in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, this junior uncle also took the lead, not caring about his own safety. He not only saved them, but also saved the disciples in Piaoxue City and Xianglu Mountain, so that this junior junior uncle almost died at that time. Among the ruins of the ancient battlefield. But after this young uncle died and was resurrected, for the first time, they felt that this young uncle was extremely strange, so strange that he seemed like a completely different person.
When Huang Qing died, the young uncle didn't have any mood swings. He looked so calm, as if the person who died was just a person who had nothing to do with him, as if the person who died was just an ant... After that, the young uncle When Uncle Master beheaded the disciples of Star Observation Pavilion and Taiyi Pavilion, there was only cold murderous intent in his body. In his eyes, those disciples of Taiyi Pavilion and Star Observation Pavilion were like ants.
At that time, the young uncle had no emotions at all.
They didn't understand why the young uncle suddenly changed into a different person. They had also heard some legends about the body snatching and rebirth, so more than once they wondered whether their young uncle had been snatched away. After all, at that time This young uncle is indeed dead, and after his resurrection, not only has his whole person changed, but his strength has also increased countless times. With one person and one sword, he can easily kill all the disciples of Star Observation Tower and Taiyi Pavilion. It was simply not something that the young master uncle they were familiar with could do.
But then this young master took them for a walk in the ruins, and they felt that this young junior uncle was no different from before. He would still stand in front of them when there was danger. Every time he talked about the disciples who died in the academy, Sometimes, this young uncle would also feel sentimental, but he had no words.
They could see that the junior uncle had hatred in his eyes at that time. If the junior junior uncle was really powerful enough to destroy Taiyi Pavilion or Star Observation Tower, the junior junior uncle would still kill him directly as before. Go to two holy places to avenge their dead comrades.
At that time, they were sure that the junior uncle was still the junior junior uncle they were familiar with.
But at this moment, when the young uncle said such words, they couldn't tell the truth from the lies.
Li Xiuping stood up and said, "Since everyone is here, let's go see Huang Qing off together."
The four of them were stunned for a moment, then they all stood up and followed Li Xiuping out of the room.
After Li Xiuping walked out of the room, he walked outside.
In front of the door, there were two sword cultivators standing in the sword washing pool. When they saw Li Xiuping and others approaching, the two sword cultivators frowned slightly and then asked, "Master Li, are you going out?"
Li Xiuping nodded and asked, "Senior Sword Master went to the City Lord's Mansion?"
The two sword cultivators nodded, and then said: "Sir, I have given you special instructions. If something happens to Mr. Li, you can tell me to wait. You must not leave this place."
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "There are some things that you can only do yourself and others can't do it for you. Don't worry, seniors, I won't go too far, just go to the place in front of you where no one is around."
Both sword cultivators frowned, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.
Li Xiuping continued: "I'm just going to see off a friend. If the two seniors are worried, they can follow. I promise not to leave the sight of the two seniors."
The two sword cultivators looked at each other and said, "Master Li, please wait a moment."
Li Xiuping nodded.
As Li Xiuping nodded, a sword cultivator rose directly into the sky, and then the auras of countless powerful men continued to emerge, then spread out in all directions, disappearing between heaven and earth in an instant.
The sword cultivator fell to the ground again and said, "Okay, but it's best not to go too far."
Li Xiuping bowed his thanks, walked out of the yard, and walked along the street.
It was getting late now, and there were snowflakes falling on the street. Although they were not very big, there was still a thick layer on the ground.
Li Xiuping led everyone in the academy and just walked on the street.
The entire street is not too wide, but because there are no people and the white snow, it feels vast.
The streets were quiet, with only the whistling of the wind and the "chichi" sound of the snow underfoot.
Li Xiuping and others walked to the end of the street, then stopped, looked left and right, and walked to the left.
…
Taiyi Pavilion.
An old man in purple robe narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you sure you have left?"
A Taoist nodded and said: "Just now, the sword-washing pool dispersed all the strong men, temporarily creating a safe zone within a hundred miles. Li Xiuping and the four people from the academy have already left their residence."
The old man in purple robe fell into thinking, and after a while he coldly uttered one word: "Kill!"
…
Star Observation Tower.
An old man with a white beard wearing a red robe had a gloomy face but said nothing.
After a long time, the old man said: "Li Xiuping must die. Even if we all die in Piaoxue City, we must kill him."
After the words fell, powerful auras continued to leave, approaching the direction of Li Xiuping.
…
In the City Lord's Mansion, a burly middle-aged man frowned slightly and was thinking about something.
In the middle of the hall, stood a swordsman in blue, waiting quietly.
After a while, the burly man asked: "Does he really want to build a fairy sword?"
The blue-shirted swordsman nodded.
The burly man asked: "How sure are you of success?"
The swordsman in green shirt replied: "Forty percent."
The burly man fell into thought again.
As he fell into thought, the swordsman in blue stopped talking and continued to wait quietly, seemingly not anxious at all.
After a long time, the burly man said: "Although it is only 40%, I can guarantee his safety in Piaoxue City, but I can only give him one month. After one month, the City Lord's Palace will no longer interfere in your affairs. resentment."
The swordsman in blue shirt smiled and said: "Thank you, Lord City Lord."
The burly man sighed: "What a troublesome guy."
He continued: "If the first fairy sword is successfully forged, it must be returned to our City Lord's Mansion. In return, the City Lord's Mansion will ensure that they leave Piaoxue Country safely."
The swordsman in blue shirt smiled and said: "I can't decide on this matter. When the immortal sword is really forged, the city lord might as well talk to him himself."
The burly man frowned and said, "There's one thing I haven't been able to figure out for a long time. This time your Sword Washing Pond has joined forces with the Chao Guan Chao Academy. It won't do you any good at all. Why are you still willing to pay such a high price to ensure that he Safety? Don’t say it’s just because of your superficial friendship with Qi Wenxing.”
The swordsman in blue shirt smiled and said: "Some benefits require risking everything. Isn't it the best explanation that the city lord is willing to stand up and help him now?"
The burly man smiled and said: "My city lord's palace can protect itself, but if you wash the sword pool, it may not be possible. Aren't you afraid that one of the seven holy places will be missing before the benefits arrive?"
The swordsman in blue shirt smiled and asked: "How does the city lord know that I can't protect myself in the sword washing pool?"
After speaking, he bowed to the burly man and left the city lord's mansion with a smile.
