Observation platform.
There was silence.
Dugu Yuan's face was extremely ugly. The fingertips in his sleeves pinched into his palm unconsciously, and blood oozed out, but he didn't know it at all.
This battle has been extremely embarrassing.
At the beginning, he also promised to reveal the results to the casual cultivators.
Now it seems that this is not self-defeating?
More importantly, this time the challenge was launched in the name of the head of the Yunjin Sect. Once this result is reported back to Yunjin Sect, not to mention the reaction of the head, other people who were originally eyeing the position of this direct disciple will only look down on Dugu Jijiu even more.
Dugu Jijiu will have no place to stand.
The other side.
Shiba looked at Jianzhong Valley.
She looked at Fairy Biyuan again and saw her master staring quietly at Jianzhong Valley. She wanted to speak several times to share her joy, but she was afraid of disturbing her master, so she finally did not speak.
Sword Tomb Valley.
Chen Ping restrained his sword intention, retracted the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword, and retracted his hands into his sleeves.
His hands were still shaking.
This is the sequelae of nearly depleting spiritual power and continuously outputting sword intent.
I have to say that Dugu Jijiu is really strong.
He has more than 600% of the spiritual power reserves of ordinary monks in the same realm, and his sword power is the best among all the heroes. He is at the level of ten roads to the north. In this way, his sword power and spiritual power were almost exhausted in one battle.
It makes sense for Dugu Jijiu to become the head's direct disciple.
Chen Ping watched calmly as Dugu Ji stood up with a pale face.
Under the ashen face was a pair of pupils that were redder than before.
I won, but the inner demons in Dugu Jijiu's heart were not eliminated, but the obsession became deeper.
Chen Ping couldn't help but his pupils condensed.
This matter is far from over.
Now it seems that my victory will not allow Dugu Jijiu to relieve his inner demons. Dugu and his son may have only come for one purpose from the beginning - to kill me.
In particular, Dugu Jijiu may have already known in his heart that only by killing me can he relieve the inner demons in his heart.
For this reason, if you can't kill me blatantly, you won't hesitate to use poison.
He did not hesitate to use the most cruel method to crush my Dantian.
"Fellow Nineteen, you won because Jijiu didn't know what he could do. Jijiu finally knew that there are people outside the world and there is a world beyond the sky." The redness in Dugu Jijiu's eyes was hidden, and he raised his hands and said humbly.
"Just now, I uncontrollably restored my true state out of desperation. I just wanted to have a hearty fight with Nineteenth Daoist Fellow. I had no other intentions. I hope fellow Daoist Chen and Fairy Biyuan will not blame me."
After saying that, Dugu Jijiu bowed to Chen Ping again, and then bowed slightly to the martial arts viewing platform above the valley.
So polite (xuwei)?
Absolutely.
But before Chen Ping had time to answer, Dugu Jijiu's scream of "Ah" suddenly came from the opposite side.
Immediately afterwards, Dugu Jijiu was seen kneeling down on his knees again in pain facing Chen Ping. His face was extremely pale, and his whole body was disordered and trembling.
"My Dantian." He screamed in horror.
"This time I'm going to teach you a lesson. The rules of the Tianyin Sect don't mean you can go over the limit if you go beyond it. If there is a next time, your body will die, your soul will disappear." The ethereal and majestic voice of Fairy Biyuan came from the viewing platform. the sound of.
"Fairy Biyuan, you."
Dugu Ape's eyes breathed fire.
Once the Dantian is injured, even if his Dugu family's self-healing skills are invincible, it will take countless days and nights to recover.
Great Elder Yanshan interrupted Dugu Yuan’s words:
"Farewell, you are so brave. You dare to wantonly destroy Sheng Mo and hurt his Dantian in front of our eyes. This is a lesson for you. If it weren't for the fact that the head of your sect has a certain friendship with the head of my sect, the two of you would Can’t get out of Sword Sacrifice Peak.”
The results were announced at the same time:
"Nineteen fellow Taoists will win this competition."
"Let's go."
The Lone Ape knew that he was in the wrong and did not argue any more. More importantly, it would be embarrassing for him to continue to stay.
With one move of his hands, he pulled Dugu Jijiu over, who was curled up in pain on the ground. He bowed with a dark face and simply said thank you.
"Fellow Daoist Dugu, we will hold a banquet to celebrate at Bixian Pavilion later. You two are guests. It is not easy to come to Tianyin Fairy City. Do you want to come to Bixian Pavilion to join the celebration banquet later?" came from behind. A friendly and kind voice.
Dugu Yuan, who was just about to leave, stopped breathing, suppressed the anger in his heart, and almost gritted his teeth and said:
"Thank you eighteen Taoist friends for inviting me."
"I and Quanzi won't be going. Goodbye."
After saying that, the light flashed away.
The other side.
The Great Elder Yanshan turned his head and glanced at Fairy Biyuan, then looked at Chen Ping in the valley below, and couldn't help but take a breath.
He turned around and glanced at the fat and thin junior brothers beside him, and said softly:
"I accidentally lost my mind just now. Why didn't the two junior brothers remind me? After this matter is over, Junior Sister Biyuan will probably kill me."
Lost?
True Lord Laoshan and True Lord Ulshan looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths cracked:
"I'm also lost."
Grand Elder Yanshan secretly scolded these two junior brothers for being unreliable. How could they be careless about such an important matter? Fortunately nothing went wrong, otherwise how would I explain it when I go back.
The plump Lord of Ulsan smacked his lips:
"Don't tell me, Junior Sister Biyuan rarely goes out. Regardless of her lack of experience, she has a really good eye for recognizing people."
"Yes, a Dharma cultivator can actually practice swordsmanship to such an extent. Senior brother, you really have to ask Junior Sister Biyuan for advice on recognizing people." The thin Laoshan monk's eyes were shining.
The corners of monk Ulsan's mouth twitched.
Hearing that his senior brother was insinuating that his direct disciples were useless, he said with a smile:
"Junior brother, I heard that your talented disciple had challenged Dugu Jiujiu before. Senior brother, I was out at that time. I wonder how the battle went afterwards?"
The thin True Lord Laoshan cleared his throat, glanced at Jianzhong Valley, and said seriously:
"Ahem, what happened in the past, why bring it up?"
The True Lord of Ulsan refused to give up: "Why can't I mention it? You can learn the new by reviewing the past."
True Lord of Laoshan:.
"Could it be that Senior Brother's disciples won? Hiss, I didn't expect Senior Brother to have such high expectations. I'm afraid Junior Sister Biyuan is ashamed of herself."
True Lord of Laoshan:.
True Lord Laoshan changed the subject and said:
"In this way, the competition is over, and there is nothing important to do next. Senior Brother Yanshan can go back first, and Senior Brother Ulshan will go and apologize to Junior Sister Biyuan, and also guide Dugu Yuan. After all, Dugu Jijiu lost half his life. , father and son are guests again, so as not to let others gossip about me and the Tianyin Sect’s lack of etiquette.”
"Junior brother, I'm going to take a look at the situation in Sword Tomb Valley. Humph, I don't know what kind of damage these two guys have done to those famous swords."
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for the two of them to reply.
He flew down with a whoosh.
He flew straight to the side of the 'Kendo Monument' and said to Chen Ping behind him:
"Little friend Chen, come here. Is this the sword mark you made just now?"
It was a deep sword mark.
After the sword marks were left, a layer of sword mark sealing forbidden patterns was automatically generated by the Kendo Monument.
This forbidden pattern can not only seal the sword mark from destruction, but also seal a sword intention and retain it, providing enlightenment for future generations of disciples who enter the sword tomb.
Chen Ping's sword mark has a diamond-shaped forbidden pattern, which is the unique forbidden pattern of the Jindan monk's sword mark.
It's just that this sword mark is deeper than all the sword marks of the diamond-shaped forbidden pattern seal, too deep. It is even deeper than the sword marks left by most Yuanying monks.
This sword stele is not an ordinary stone stele, nor can it be destroyed by any other magic weapon. Only the 'Sword Intent' can leave traces on the stele.
The stronger the sword intention, the deeper the sword marks can be left.
Chen Ping walked over, looked at the sword marks and said:
"It shouldn't have been carved by a junior."
"It should be this one." Chen Ping pointed to a very shallow sword mark next to him.
"Haha, don't be modest. I saw the sword mark clearly when it was made just now." The thin monk chuckled.
The thin Laoshan monk caressed the sword mark and said:
"Every sword mark left here can be written with sword swing notes. This is the inheritance of my Tianyin Sect, and this one is no exception. What do you think, Chen Xiaoyou?"
Although he was asking Chen Ping, True Lord Laoshan couldn't wait for Chen Ping to answer. He had already drawn out a sword and started carving words with sword intention next to the deep sword mark.
Just after he carved out a word, Laoshan said again:
"It's not good to write that my little friend is dueling with a monk from outside the sect. How about writing what you left behind when you demonstrated your swordsmanship here?"
Chen Ping was confused.
I saw True Lord Laoshan starting to carve words:
——"Jindan Zhenren Chen Ping was here as his mentor and friend on the 1091st anniversary of the establishment of the Kendo Monument."
At this point, he suddenly found that his sword could not carve words.
The sword froze.
Can't help but pause.
Could it be that the stone tablets here have become harder?
So the sword intent output was increased.
Still can't carve it out.
True Monarch Laoshan was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, turned around and saw the fat monk Ulsan standing behind him, and he understood immediately.
"Brother, what are you doing? Junior brother is writing an inscription for Chen Xiaoyou. Go away, don't disturb me." True Lord Laoshan waved his thin arm to drive away True Lord Ulshan behind him.
True Lord Ulsan chuckled:
"Junior brother, Dugu Yuan and his son said that they are familiar with junior brother and would like to chat with him for a few words. I will let senior brother do the inscription for me."
The corners of Zhenjun Laoshan's mouth twitched:
"Haha, junior brother and I are not familiar with Dugu Yuan at all. Go away, go away."
The True King of Ulsan refused to give in:
"Hehe, junior brother, please don't hide it. We are waiting for the Tianyin Sect sword cultivators. Even a few of the hundred Jindan sword cultivators may not be able to leave sword marks on this kendo monument, and every sword mark can be left on the Tianyin Sect. His reputation will last forever, let alone Chen Xiaoyou’s sword mark? Let me come, I need this opportunity even more."
"Old man, I discovered it first, don't you understand?"
"Bahou, who are you scolding? I once met Chen Xiaoyou in Tianyin Fairy City and personally taught him the way of swordsmanship. It is not an exaggeration to say that I am his mentor and friend, so I should be the one to write the inscription."
"Same, I discussed it with him. Don't force me to take action, junior brother."
"Haha, am I afraid of you?"
"Are you trying to fight?"
"Just hit us."
"Old man, take my sword. Whoosh~"
"Bahou, do you think you know swordsmanship and I can't? Look at my flying sword."
"."
Chen Ping was confused.
Only then did I remember what Fairy Biyuan said about leaving a name when introducing the Kendo Monument.
"What's going on? Why are the brothers fighting among themselves? It's outrageous. We should be united and friendly." Grand Elder Yanshan stood in front of the Kendo Monument and shouted while looking at the two people fighting in the air.
When the two saw their senior brother coming, they landed decisively.
"Elder brother, please comment." True Lord Laoshan immediately flew over and landed in front of the Kendo Monument. But before he could finish his words, he froze.
I saw a line of words engraved next to Chen Ping's sword mark on the sword stele:
——"Jindan Zhenren Chen Ping stayed here to demonstrate swordsmanship for his mentor Yanshan on the 1091st anniversary of the establishment of the Kendo Monument."
True Lord of Laoshan:.
Ulsan True King:.
"What's going on? Two junior brothers, tell me why they started fighting all of a sudden?" Elder Yanshan asked with a confused look on his face.
True Lord of Laoshan:.
Ulsan True King:.
"Senior Brother, you are too unkind to do this. I'll wait." The muscles on the face of the thin True Monarch Laoshan twitched.
"Eh? Why are you being rude? Besides, we are all cultivators from Jianfeng Peak, so what's the difference between you and me? If people find out, it's a joke, but Chen Xiaoyou is still here?" Yanshan picked up his senior brother's majesty and scolded him sternly. .
True Lord of Laoshan:.
Ulsan True King:.
"Little friend Chen, Junior Sister Biyuan is still waiting for you above. You can leave first." Yanshan smiled kindly.
If it weren't for the special current situation, they would have liked to accept Chen Ping as their disciple.
But they also know that over the past hundred years, these young monks who have entered Tianyin Immortal City may appear to be casual cultivators in name, but in fact they are all talented disciples of various sects. It is a real casual cultivator.
With Chen Ping's sword intent, it is impossible for his master to be weak.
It is extremely impolite for such a person to randomly propose to accept the other person as his disciple and ask him to change his family.
"Seniors, take your leave."
After Chen Ping held his hands, he flew up and landed next to Fairy Biyuan on the Guanwu Platform above.
"Go back." Fairy Biyuan just said lightly.
On the back of the returning crane, unlike the calmness of Fairy Biyuan, Shiba, who was sitting next to Chen Ping, looked extremely excited and lowered his voice:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, it's okay."
"With your swordsmanship, it would be a pity not to become a swordsman specifically."
"Shiba was originally sweating for you, but I didn't expect you to be able to defeat Dugu Jiujiu, who has recovered to the first level of Nascent Soul. Hiss, hiss, you said you are so powerful, why do you still stay in the mansion every day? Come out? If it were me, I would challenge the late-stage Jindan monks in the fairy city one by one."
Chen Ping smiled and whispered:
"You're not bad either. It's very relaxing when you scold Dugu Jijiu and his son."
"Ahem, that's a must." Shiba said proudly.
Chen Ping leaned over and asked in a low voice:
"By the way, can you help me get a map of the teleportation points between various sects in the outside world?"
When he had just competed with Dugu Jijiu and learned that Dugu Jijiu wanted to kill him twice in a row, Chen Ping had already realized that this competition was not easy.
After Dugu Jijiu surrendered, Chen Ping confirmed this again. The moment Dugu Jijiu was defeated, his eyes became even redder.
This shows that Dugu Jijiu's inner demons have not been eliminated because he realized that his skills are inferior to others.
But it gets aggravated further.
Perhaps Dugu Jijiu had known about this situation the moment he proposed the contest. Perhaps Dugu Jijiu had only one purpose from the beginning - to kill the opponent in the name of losing the contest.
Now that the inner demon has not been eliminated, will Dugu Jijiu be willing to become mediocre for the rest of his life?
Will he accept the fact that he has lost his identity as the head's direct disciple?
impossible.
Chen Ping was not willing to gamble.
If Dugu Jijiu wants to continue to eliminate his inner demons, he will continue to kill Chen Ping.
Chen Ping didn't want to die.
Then there is only one way left to go, and that is——
——Let Dugu sacrifice nine deaths.
Before the war, in the latest news provided by Shiba, the head master of Dugu Jijiu accepted another direct disciple, and the Yunjin Sect had an unwritten rule that the leader always had only one direct disciple.
This means that Dugu Jijiu is on the verge of being abandoned.
Without the support of the sect, it will become much easier to kill Dugu Jijiu quietly.
"You can sell this map at the General Affairs Pavilion. What do you want this map for? Are you going to go out for training?" Shiba blinked his big curious eyes.
"Yeah, isn't this the ninth level of the Golden Core? You need to gain some practical experience." Chen Ping narrowed his eyes.
"Right."
Listening to Shiba's chatter, Chen Ping's mind was looking back at the previous battle.
I used my magical power during the battle, but this magical power was a sword technique, which was very similar to the green light sword technique, except that the sword power was countless times more powerful. Those people may not recognize it as a magical power.
It also did not reveal that this magical power can enter the opponent's Dantian.
Nor did he reveal what his natal magic weapon was.
In addition, evil methods such as Hundred Ghosts Night Journey were not exposed.
The most exposed thing is that the sword intention is extremely powerful.
But don't worry too much about this.
As long as the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword is around, my sword intent will improve every day, and others will never be able to figure out my true strength.
It can only be regarded as a proper exposure of some strength, which is not bad. Fairy Biyuan has given me some sect resources over the years without me having any merit, and she might give it to me again in the future. The other elders won't say anything openly, but they might have some complaints in their hearts.
A proper display of strength this time might be able to stop Yuyou's mouth a little.
"."
When approaching Tianyin Fairy City, Fairy Biyuan suddenly said: "Are you going to move to Bixian Pavilion?"
Chen Ping glanced at her sitting in front of her in white clothes, thought for a moment and said:
"good."
It's time to move to Bixian Pavilion.
Today is different from the past. Even if Fairy Biyuan has a back-up plot outside his mansion, she is not necessarily safe.
Especially thinking about the next plan, he will need to face more dangerous enemies.
Bixian Pavilion will be the safest umbrella.
Tianyin Fairy City.
Martial Arts Stage.
Although there was no competition on the martial arts stage and the waiting process was extremely boring, the number of onlookers increased instead of decreasing.
The whole square was crowded.
"What's going on? Haven't you finished the competition yet?"
"How can a master's duel be so fast? It might last for three days and three nights."
"What do you know? The more masters fight, the sooner they will see the results. Often, the results will come out in just a few moves."
"."
"Huh? Are those two people who passed by just now Dugu Jijiu and his son?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't you want to lose face?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Looking at that, we know that Dugu Jijiu must have lost. Otherwise, they wouldn't come down and announce the result? If he really wins, this will be another moment of glory for him."
"Really or not? No way? Although I also hope that the Nineteenth Daoist Fellow can win. But that is Dugu Jijiu."
"."
Not long after, the Tianyin Sect came in person to announce the results, and the monks below heard the words and made a noise.
Is Dugu Jijiu's success in Tianyin Fairy City that has been maintained for more than a hundred years broken?
And it was broken without suppressing the cultivation level.
Although they didn't know who this person was, they all had an idea in their hearts:
Fairy Biyuan really has a vision!
After the crane that Chen Ping rode returned to Tianyin Fairy City, Chen Ping did not stay longer at Bixian Pavilion, but went straight to his mansion. He still had many things to do.
When passing by the martial arts arena on Central Street, I saw that there were still some people staying at the venue.
Including the female cultivator who talked to Chen Ping in the morning.
"Which side wins, fellow Taoist?" Chen Pingyuan didn't want to say hello at first, but when he saw the female cultivator looking straight at her, he had to say hello with a smile.
The female cultivator pursed her lips and smiled:
"I won by overpowering nineteen fellow Taoists. The Jinlan below all overpowered Dugu Jijiu. I lost decades of savings. I am the only one who wins."
"Have vision." Chen Ping praised.
"No Fairy Biyuan has discernment." The female cultivator smiled softly.
Chen Ping didn't say anything, smiled and left.
Listen to the female nun’s voice again:
"There are rumors in the market that the Nineteenth Fellow Daoist is just the dual monk companion of Fairy Biyuan. Fellow Daoist, what kind of woman does a cultivator like the Nineteenth Fellow Daoist like to have as a partner?"
Chen Ping hesitated and looked back at the smiling female cultivator.
He smiled as if nothing had happened:
"How could I know this? I didn't know until I met Nineteen and asked."
He ignored the female nun and quickly left Central Street.
In a cave.
"What's going on? Didn't you say that losing can eliminate inner demons?" Dugu Yuan looked at his son angrily.
In his original opinion, the best outcome would be for his son to lose.
In this way, there is no need to kill Chen Ping and incur revenge from Fairy Biyuan or even the entire Tianyin Sect.
It can also eliminate the inner demons in the son's heart.
It can even motivate his son Dugu Jijiu, making him work hard with the goal of defeating Chen Ping.
Although it was a bit embarrassing to lose to the opponent, and although he was humiliated without getting revenge, compared to Dugu Jijiu's future, this humiliation was nothing to him.
The patience is over.
The inner demons that never occurred to Dugu Jijiu were not eliminated at all.
No one else can do anything about inner demons. Only the person concerned knows best, and only the person concerned can analyze which solution is suitable for them.
Thinking of this, Dugu Yuan became furious:
"Is it possible? You have known very well from the beginning to the end that it is impossible to get rid of the inner demons if you lose?"
"Yes." Dugu Jijiu's eyes turned red and he said loudly:
"I just want to kill Chen Ping, I just want to humiliate Fairy Biyuan, I just want to make her gain and lose again. In this way, the child can eliminate his inner demons."
"You" Dugu Yuan took two steps back angrily.
His lips turned purple from anger.
"If you want to kill Chen Ping, why do you need to stand on the competition platform? Our Dugu family can't kill a lone Golden Elixir monk?" The muscles on Dugu Yuan's face trembled.
"My child just wants to kill him in front of Fairy Biyuan. I want Fairy Biyuan to know that I killed him. I want Fairy Biyuan to know that Chen Ping is not as good as me and will never be as good as me." Dugu Jijiu was furious. wolf.
Roaring and spitting.
"You still can't forget that woman?"
Dugu Yuan's face turned blue and purple with anger.
My whole body was shaking.
He was extremely disappointed with the son in front of him.
However, this is the most outstanding disciple in the entire Dugu family for thousands of years, and he is also the son of Dugu Yuan.
It is the hope of the entire Dugu family.
It took Dugu Yuan a long time to calm down the anger in his heart.
The head of the Yunjin Sect can give up Dugu Jijiu, but he, Dugu Yuan, cannot, because this is his biological son.
"You used poison on Chen Ping this time. This is a taboo. I don't know if Chen Ping will complain in front of Biyuan. Once he complains, our situation will be very unfavorable. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time."
"I'll go to Suixi City first, and then we'll make long-term plans." Dugu Yuan looked out the window.
"When are you leaving?" Dugu Jijiu asked.
"To avoid a long night and many dreams, let's leave now."
"."
