Surrounded by deserted and silent mountains, there is a deep valley between the mountains.
And in the center of the valley, there is a clear pool quietly located in the valley, peaceful and quiet.
This is what Fang Jian said, the last spring in this world.
Zhang Jiao and Zhang Sanfeng stood in the west of the mountains, while Dragon Girl holding a pearl and monk Zhiyi stood in the east of the mountains. The two sides faced each other in the air, and the atmosphere was solemn.
There is no doubt that the goal of both sides is the spring in the valley. As long as they plant the spiritual seed first, whoever they can will be the winner of this assessment.
In the tense atmosphere, Zhang Sanfeng stood up first and said: "I'll go."
Zhang Jiao nodded and said, "Okay."
Then Zhang Sanfeng transformed into a fairy light and flew straight towards the clear pool in the valley. At the same time, the monk Zhiyi beside the dragon girl holding the pearl also rose up and turned into a fairy light and flew down.
Monk Zhiyi hadn't arrived yet, but his magical power had already been activated. He was seen pinching the magic formula with his hand, and a divine light flashed around his body. The next moment, a huge tree vine suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Sanfeng, and it hit Zhang Sanfeng with a "swipe" sound.
This is the magical power of Monk Zhiyi, the Ancient Prajna Elephant. The tree vine is an ancient divine object. Monk Zhiyi transformed it into the Ancient Prajna Elephant and used it for his own use.
Zhang Sanfeng saw the ancient elephant tree vine coming towards him, and without saying a word, he used his Zhenwu Sword, raised his hand and knocked back the ancient elephant tree vine with one strike.
But the power of the ancient elephant tree vine also shocked Zhang Sanfeng until his mouth became numb and his arms trembled with pain.
At this moment, a divine light suddenly lit up on the top of the mountain to the east, and a treasure suddenly appeared in the hands of the dragon girl holding the pearl.
The treasure is very beautiful, naturally showing clear light. The center is composed of five treasures in a trapezoid shape of three, two, and one, and is arranged in colors of yellow, green, and red as three, purple and green as two, and green as one. . Surrounding the five treasures are fiery red flames burning upward, surrounding the treasures in the center, and a rosette at the bottom.
"Mani Orb!" Zhang Sanfeng secretly thought something bad when he saw this object appearing.
The Mani Pearl was originally a wish-fulfilling pearl born in the Dragon Palace under the sea. It was later acquired by Guanyin Bodhisattva and refined into a Mani Pearl. As for the dragon girl holding the pearl, she is indeed a dragon girl. After she became a disciple of Guanyin, Then Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva holds this treasure.
As the Mani Orb appeared, there was a flash of divine light on the orb, and the Zhenwu Sword in Zhang Sanfeng's hand instantly flew out, directly in front of the dragon girl holding the bead, and was imprisoned by the magical power of the Mani Orb.
Zhang Sanfeng struck several times in a row, but Zhenwu Sword received no response. At this time, the ancient elephant tree vine had been struck down again.
Zhang Sanfeng immediately squeezed the magic formula with his hands and yelled: "Yin and Yang are divided into two parts!"
The next moment, a black and white energy suddenly appeared. Zhang Sanfeng raised his hand and turned, and the black and white energy instantly covered the ancient elephant tree vines.
Then Zhang Sanfeng made a stroke with his sword finger, and the black and white qi instantly attached to the ancient elephant tree vine. As Zhang Sanfeng's sword finger crossed, the yin and yang qi suddenly separated.
There was a loud noise, and the ancient elephant tree and vines were instantly torn apart by the yin and yang qi. Monk Zhiyi's magical power "Prajna Ancient Elephant" was directly destroyed.
But at the moment when the ancient Prajna elephant was destroyed, a sharp golden pestle suddenly stabbed Zhang Sanfeng on the back. Zhang Sanfeng groaned, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, and his body flew out in an instant.
The moment Zhang Sanfeng flew out, he turned around and saw Monk Zhiyi holding a golden pestle, and the pestle was still stained with blood.
The pestle poked a bloody hole in the vertebrae of Zhang Sanfeng's back. As long as Zhang Sanfeng made the slightest movement, he was in excruciating pain. He couldn't even stabilize his body and fell straight to the ground.
At this moment, the monk Zhiyi turned into immortal light and went towards Zhang Sanfeng. When Zhang Sanfeng saw this, he immediately shouted: "Master Hongqing, I am a poor man withdrew from the assessment."
The next moment, a celestial light suddenly fell, covering Zhang Sanfeng and leading him out.
Monk Zhiyi looked up and watched Zhang Sanfeng being led out. Without any delay, he immediately flew towards the spring.
However, at this moment, a thunderous sound suddenly appeared in the sky, and then a bolt of thunder struck straight down on Monk Zhiyi's head.
Monk Zhiyi was slightly startled, and immediately used his Dharma to avoid it, but the lightning still hit him impartially, and Monk Zhiyi froze instantly.
But he quickly reacted and saw the Buddha's light all over Monk Zhiyi's body vibrating, instantly dispelling the power of thunder and lightning on his body, and then Monk Zhiyi once again used his magical power 'Prajna Ancient Elephant'.
But this time the ancient elephant was no longer transformed into trees and vines, but into stars all over the sky.
Stars are the oldest giant elephants in reality. This time Monk Zhiyi used Prajna Ancient Elephant to evolve the stars in the sky, which could not help but consume most of the power of the soul. Even the mana in Niwan Palace was drained instantly.
But the ancient stars in the Zhoutian have evolved, and Zhang Jiao found that he was already in a reduced version of the Zhoutian star field.
The dragon girl holding the pearl stands on top of the stars holding the Mani orb in her hands, looking sacred and solemn under the light of the Mani orb shining in all directions.
As for the monk Zhiyi, he is sitting cross-legged behind the dragon girl holding the pearl, running the ancient star elephant under the protection of the magical power of the Mani orb.
At this time, the divine light of the Mani orb in the hand of the dragon girl flashed again, and the peach wood sword in Zhang Jiao's hand was immediately taken away and suppressed by the Mani orb like a real sword.
This is one of the magical powers of the Mani Orb. It can capture people's magic treasures and suppress them, unless the master of the magic treasure has a higher conduct than the owner of the Mani Orb. But... the owner of the Mani Orb is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.
Or the grade of your magic weapon is higher than the grade of Mani Orb, otherwise as long as you dare to sacrifice the magic weapon, you will be suppressed by Mani Orb.
"Great Master!" Monk Zhiyi said to Zhang Jiao, "Can you recognize these billions of stars?"
Zhang Jue was unfazed by the suppression of his magic weapon. When he heard Monk Zhiyi's question, he sat down in the cross-legged posture without any care.
Seeing that Zhang Jue didn't answer, Monk Zhiyi smiled calmly. Then he squeezed the magic formula with his hand, pointed at Zhang Jue and said, "Suppress!"
'boom'
As Monk Zhiyi shouted, the ancient star-filled sky that evolved suddenly shook, and then billions of starlights came straight towards Zhangjiao. The power was so huge that even the crowd watching on the Langtaoshan Circle Platform Xian also felt extremely depressed.
Facing the mighty power of billions of stars, Zhang Jiao slowly raised his hands and formed a seal on his chest.
But the moment the Zhang Jiao seal was formed, his whole body suddenly emitted a blazing light. The light instantly illuminated the entire ancient star elephant, eclipsing the stars in the sky that had evolved from the ancient Prajna elephant in front of him.
Of course, what was eclipsed along with the ancient star elephant was the starlight emitted by the billions of stars, all of which were swallowed up by the blazing light from Zhang Jiao's body.
In the remaining world, the dragon girl holding the pearl and the monk Zhi Yi closed their eyes. Outside the remnant world, the monks on the Roan Taoshan Circle also closed their eyes because the light was so dazzling.
After an unknown amount of time, the blazing light finally began to dissipate. As the blazing light dissipated, the immortals finally saw clearly what was happening in the remaining world.
I saw that the stars in the sky evolved from the ancient elephant of Prajna Zhiyi had been completely annihilated, and the three of them appeared again in the barren mountains of the remaining world.
But Monk Zhiyi was already slumped on the ground, his face pale and his body trembling slightly from exhaustion.
Zhang Jiao was still sitting cross-legged in the air. He raised his eyes slightly, raised his sleeves, and his Taoist robes moved with the wind.
"The billions of stars are not as bright as one day!"
After Zhang Jiao finished speaking, he puffed up his sleeves, and his figure had already fallen to the edge of the spring. He turned his right hand, and a spiritual seed appeared in his hand.
The Pearl Holding Dragon Girl's expression changed slightly when she saw this scene, and she immediately flew out to stop her. However, as soon as she flew less than a hundred feet away, a blazing light suddenly appeared out of thin air, and instantly shone on the Pearl Holding Dragon Girl.
The next moment, the dragon girl holding the pearl had a puff of white smoke all over her body, and her body was directly scorched by the light. Fortunately, the Mani orb suddenly released a divine light, which immediately dispelled the blazing light, and the dragon girl holding the pearl was surrounded by spiritual light. In a flash, the burnt flesh fell off instantly.
The dragon girl holding the pearl has regained her previous appearance of bullying the frost and snow.
But despite this, the momentum of the dragon girl holding the pearl has dropped a lot, and her aura has become much weaker.
"What a powerful Taoist technique." The dragon girl holding the pearl said in a serious tone.
At this moment, Zhang Jiao has planted the spiritual seed, and the winner has been decided. The dragon girl holding the pearl sighed slightly, but she still put away the Mani orb, and then saluted Zhang Jiao with a namaste: "Congratulations to the great virtuous master."
Monk Zhiyi also stood up from the ground, saluted Zhang Jiao and said, "Congratulations, fellow Taoist."
Three rays of fairy light fell, instantly leading Zhang Jiao and the others out.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Jian had led everyone to the platform and announced: "The Taiyi Xuanxian assessment is over, and the winner is Taoist Zhang Jiao."
The Taoist cultivators immediately burst into laughter, and the surrounding cultivators also congratulated Zhang Jiao.
After Zhang Jiao thanked Fang Jian and returned the courtesy to the immortals, he returned to the Taoist monks.
At this time, the dragon girl holding the pearl also came to the Taoist cultivators and returned the Zhenwu Sword and Taomu Sword to Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Jiao.
Finally, Fang Jian came to the stage and announced: "The Taiyi Xuanxian assessment is over. Fellow Taoists, please go back and rest. Tomorrow, the Golden Immortal and Taiyi Golden Immortal assessments will begin."
"What?"
Hearing this, all the monks couldn't help being shocked. Immortal Suyu from the Taoist sect immediately asked: "Master Hongqing, are you saying that the assessments of Tianjin Immortal and Taiyi Golden Immortal will be started at the same time?"
Fang Jian nodded and said, "Not bad."
Hearing this, the Jinxian and Taiyi Jinxian monks present fell into silence, and then Fang Jian said again: "Fellow Taoists, if you have nothing else to do, please go back and prepare."
After saying that, Fang Jian took the lead in exiting the platform and led everyone in Heaven back to the Heaven headquarters.
The other immortals also dispersed one after another after Fang Jian left, and soon the whole platform became deserted.
...
The heavenly residence is located in the main hall.
Lin Jingcao, Ao Ding, Huang Ling, Feng Yan, Huang Meng, and Huang Ying stood in front of Fang Jian, looking a little ashamed.
"Master Hongqing, we have betrayed the trust of Heavenly Court and were eliminated as soon as we entered the assessment. We are so ashamed." Lin Jingcao said to Fang Jian with a frustrated look on his face, and several others also looked ashamed.
Fang Jian couldn't help but smile when he heard this and said: "Victory or defeat is not enough to judge a hero. The six of you are the pillars of heaven now or in the future. Don't be defeated by this small setback."
After speaking, Fang Jian pointed to the pot of spiritual tea on the table next to him and said, "As a punishment, each of you will drink a cup of spiritual tea."
Hearing Fang Jian's words, the six of them couldn't help being slightly stunned, but under Fang Jian's gaze, they stepped forward one after another, each poured a cup of spiritual tea and drank it.
After drinking a cup of warm spiritual tea, the six of them felt a little more relaxed.
At this time, Fang Jian said again: "Shenzhong Daozhuan, it's good if you can get it, but it doesn't matter if you don't get it. Victory and defeat are all determined by destiny, so why bother about it. Now that your assessment is over, you can rest assured here." Live in the Rotten Peach Mountain, eat when you need to eat, drink when you need to drink, don't let the temporary victory or defeat affect your Taoist heart, there is still a long way to go."
The six people were relieved by Fang Jian's words. They each exhaled a breath, and then bowed to Fang Jian with a relaxed look on their faces: "Thank you Master Hongqing."
"Go." Fang Jian waved his hand and said.
Then the six people paid their respects to Fang Jian and exited the hall.
At this time, the ultimatum messenger came to Fang Jian and reported: "I am reporting to Heavenly Lord that I have sent two reports from Xitian Mansion to capture and kill the general."
"What's the matter?" Fang Jian asked the envoy.
The ultimatum messenger said: "The first report was jointly reported by General Capture and Killing, General Cutting Down Temples, and General Destroying Temples, saying that they had discovered the hiding place where the remnants of the Great Sun Sect were hiding."
"Oh?" Fang Jian raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, "Where?"
The messenger said: "In the Chongyan Mountain Ten Thousand Buddhas Cave."
"Okay." Fang Jian clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This person is hiding in the mountains and forests, rebelling against the power of heaven, and we must eradicate him this time."
After saying this, Fang Jianchao conveyed the ultimatum to the envoy and said: "Pass my decree to the general who is to be captured and killed, and order him to keep a close watch, but you must not scare the snake. When the matter of Zhuri's tomb is settled, he will send out the heavenly soldiers, cut down the altar, destroy the temple, and overthrow it." nest."
When the messenger heard the words, he immediately bowed and said, "Follow the law and decree."
Then Fang Jian asked again: "What is the second report?"
The messenger said: "The second report is a forwarding. It is a letter sent from Tianshu Capital Province, and it is sent in the name of Tianshu Capital Lu's 'Qingyue Zhenren'."
"Master Qingyue?" Fang Jian couldn't help but be startled when he heard this.
This Qing Yue Zhenren was the original 'Tianhan Golden Dragon' Jiao Shu. After she was resurrected by the Heavenly Court, she was appointed by the Heavenly Court as Tianshu Dulu and in charge of the Tianshu Capital Province.
"Show me." Fang Jian said.
The ultimatum messenger immediately handed the letter to Fang Jian. After reading it, Fang Jian realized that the Qingyue Master wanted to meet him and said that he had something to ask, but she did not say what it was specifically.
After Fang Jian pondered for a moment, he said to the ultimatum envoy: "Please reply to this letter for me, saying that after the incident at the tomb of the gods is over, Fang Jian will personally pay homage to Tianshu Dulu Mansion."
"Yes." The ultimatum envoy bowed and said.
After handling these two reports, Fang Jian returned to his cloud room and sat in meditation. He had already set the rules for the assessment of Jinxian and Taiyi Jinxian. It was not as troublesome as the previous assessments, but was very simple. rough.
Time passed quickly, and the next day arrived in the blink of an eye. The assessment of Jinxian and Taiyi Jinxian would also start today at the same time.
