On the second day, Zhao Ning came to Mingguang Cliff. At this time, Mingguang Cliff was already filled with disciples from the Jihan Palace. Each of them had strong aura, and each of them was the best among other sects.
A huge platform stretched out from the Mingguang Cliff. Clouds and mist floated under the platform. The platform seemed to be made of ice. Standing on the platform, it seemed that Master Yuanying had the magic of controlling the sky.
Qu Yi is in charge of this competition. The content of the competition is very simple. All registered foundation-building disciples compete in pairs, and only the last ten people can be left. It is similar to the Qingxiao Sect sect competition. Zhao Ning did not have the opportunity to participate in the Qing Dynasty competition back then. In Xiaozong's small competition, this time he almost tried the water.
There are a lot of disciples signing up for Jihan Palace. The attraction of Wuzhi Jianshui is particularly strong. Hundreds of disciples in the late stage of foundation building have signed up. It is indeed a sect that has been passed down since ancient times. The number of foundation building disciples is amazing. Unexpectedly, they had the same idea as Zhao Ning, and they both entered into the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment in order to obtain Wuzhi Jianshui.
When Zhao Ning came on stage, there was a lot of noise.
"Who is this fairy? I have never seen her in the palace. She is the new disciple of some real person."
"I've seen it in the training square before. It looks like the Extreme Cold Palace I visited a few months ago. I dare to fight for the Wuzhi Jian water without fear of embarrassment."
"I know who she is. She is a registered disciple under the name of Master Bai Ye. I don't know what means were used to get Master Bai Ye to give him a place in Tianchi Cultivation Land and also tell him the news about Wuzhi Jianshui. This It’s too much to give a named disciple.”
"Can you not give me too much? Yesterday, I saw her and Master Bai Ye acting a little intimately at the entrance of Dongjue Hall."
Zhao Ning slowly shifted his gaze to the disciple who came with his mouth open. The disciple was suddenly stared at by a cold gaze, and his heart suddenly stagnated. When he looked at Zhao Ning, he raised his head subconsciously. His expression was obviously very serious. It's dissatisfaction.
"Later stage of foundation building." Zhao Ning murmured slightly. The other party's cultivation level was the same as hers, and this person was also the one who gathered around the Tianchi training ground to gossip.
Hearing Zhao Ning's voice, the disciple snorted, "Why, you feel scared? Let me tell you, there are dozens of senior brothers in the late stage of foundation building on Mingguang Cliff today. It's not like you can just rely on your connections." Can be defeated.”
Zhao Ning sighed slightly. This person said that she relied on the relationship with Master Bai Ye. She looked at Qu Yi and said, "Elder Qu, do you know if I can use my relationship to change my opponent to this senior brother?"
Qu Yi later found out that Zhao Ning was a registered disciple of Jihan Palace. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't take it to heart. It was normal for such a large sect to have several talented disciples.
He also heard the commotion, his slightly closed eyes slowly opened, and he lowered his eyes to look at the provocative disciple Zhao Ning, who shrank his neck due to the pressure of the golden elixir.
After just one glance, he closed his eyes again and said, "Your relationship is not strong enough yet, but a few geniuses intend to appear at the end, and the disciples in front of them are also fighting each other. If you want, I can arrange him to be with you." Among the 'wheels'."
For a moment, the provocative disciple looked a little depressed. Although Zhao Ning did not achieve his goal, this arrangement was acceptable, so he thanked Master Qu Yi.
After the interlude, the disciple who was originally scheduled to recruit opponents came on stage with a very bad expression on his face, "You just ignored me! I will show you, the registered disciples, a good show!"
As he spoke, he drew out a long sword and rushed towards Zhao Ning. Zhao Ning didn't even take out the spiritual weapon. Her figure disappeared instantly. The disciple didn't panic and cast a spell. The seals spread across the entire platform. Every node of the spiritual pattern has a blade formed by the wind, but such a large-scale attack seems to have no effect at all. After the disciple gritted his teeth and held on for half a stick of incense, Zhao Ning seemed to disappear on the platform.
The people watching in the audience were also confused. Only a man and a woman on the high branches of a towering tree in the distance were watching.
"She is very fast, and she doesn't even leave an afterimage." The woman was wearing a frosty fairy dress, with delicate facial features, but her eyes were as frosty.
"This is just a body technique. In fact, she has not used any magic or Taoist techniques at all so far. This is the most terrifying thing." The man was tall and lean, wearing a light blue robe, a wide leather belt, and sword-shaped eyebrows. The eyes are extremely handsome.
"It seems that Master Bai Ye has really found a genius from outside."
"Isn't Tianjiao bad? Anyway, there are ten places, and she can't grab us. Besides, if she is Tianjiao, we can have a good competition with her. Every time, we fight with you. I don't care about your tricks. My eyes are all familiar.”
"Hahaha, it depends on whether she can stand until the end."
It was probably because this cold situation had lasted for too long. Qu Yi said calmly, "Okay, let's solve it quickly and don't delay the subsequent competition."
This sentence seemed like a taunt to the disciples on the stage. He was about to get angry when he suddenly felt a cold light behind him. When he turned around, he saw Zhao Ning's sudden appearance and was thrown off the platform. It turned out to be solved in such a devastating way.
All the slanderous voices in the audience disappeared.
Although the rule is a one-on-one competition, it is obvious that the Jihan Palace does not pay that much attention to the competition rules. Whoever is stronger will stand on the stage and let all the dissatisfied disciples challenge you. If they recognize you, you don't have to If you continue to the following rounds, you can be directly promoted to the ten places.
Obviously this is not a friendly arrangement. Compared with a one-on-one competition, it tests the Shou Lei's strength and perseverance more.
But this was nothing to Zhao Ning. After the tenth disciple was shot down, no one took the initiative to come on stage for a while. Zhao Ning was holding an ordinary mithril sword, and the tip of the sword pointed at her before gossiping that she was Disciples who came here relying on connections.
The disciple had shrunk into the crowd, as if he wanted to hide himself completely, but the mithril sword found him easily. The sword light shone above his eyes, and he had nowhere to hide.
After watching Zhao Ning's first ten devastating matches, this disciple obviously no longer wanted to compete with Zhao Ning anymore.
But if he didn't want to do it, it didn't mean that the disciples in the crowd who were watching the excitement didn't want to. The next moment, there was a sudden push from behind him, and he was thrown into the air and sent directly to the platform.
The disciple subconsciously wanted to run away with the sword, but he didn't expect that the mithril sword had stopped three feet in front of him. The sharp edge of the sword tip made people's hearts shrink.
Step by step he retreated back to the platform.
He touched the cold sweat on his head and said with a smile, "Fairy, I'm really sorry. I misunderstood you."
"No, you didn't misunderstand." But he didn't want Zhao Ning to refute him directly. Under his shocked look, Zhao Ning held the mithril sword again and said lightly, "I did enter the Extreme Cold Palace with some elder connections. , and also relied on this relationship to enter the Tianchi cultivation place, and stand on my own. It can be seen that Your Excellency is very unconvinced. In this case, Your Excellency knocked me off the platform, and I immediately left the Extreme Cold Palace in embarrassment. There will never be any care from Jihan Palace."
Zhao Ning's words made the disciples on and off the stage in a daze. For a moment, they couldn't tell whether Zhao Ning was declaring war or being sarcastic.
"Okay!" But the disciples on the stage were aroused by these words to be competitive, "Then let me see if you are so powerful!"
It seems that the withdrawal just now was all fake. Putting some unspoken rules on the surface and using strength to prove everything seems not so difficult to accept.
However, he saw the disciple directly perform the technique, and a circle of brown aura surrounded his body. He dived forward suddenly and disappeared.
Zhao Ning lowered his eyes slightly, turned around and stood up, and then swatted his spell downwards, just in time to bump into the disciple who suddenly appeared and made a sneak attack upwards.
The magic spell stopped the disciple's movements for a moment, and Zhao Ning's figure flashed several positions in the air, only to see a series of earth thorns rush out from the ground, which seemed to shatter the entire platform.
The thrust forced Zhao Ning all the way to the edge. There was a hint of joy in the corner of the disciple's mouth. Suddenly, a huge cluster of earth spiritual power gathered together, as if it was about to explode with powerful force.
However, Zhao Ning stood on the edge and cast his spell. There was no deterrence in the spell, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was an escape technique.
The person opposite laughed loudly and looked at Zhao Ning's back half of his feet almost hanging outside the platform. "Is it possible that your registered disciple is afraid and wants to run away directly. But there is no need to waste your efforts. If you can't beat him, you can surrender directly and surrender to the enemy." All the disciples declare that they are trash who got in through connections."
The audience was calm, maybe a few boos were forced back into the throat by Jingjing, but Zhao Ning was not moved at all. The spell was completed, and the moment before the opponent's spell exploded, he suddenly disappeared at the edge of the platform. , reappeared, but they were face to face with the other party, not even three feet away. The other party had not retracted his laughing movements, and before he could react, he was pushed off the platform by a strong fan.
The disciples in the audience tacitly avoided an open space and let this disciple fall heavily.
Zhao Ning's eyebrows were still light, "I accept."
The disciple closed his mouth suddenly and finally reacted from the frozen state, but he didn't have the humiliating expression that most people have after being kicked off the field.
He just patted the dust on his clothes and stood up, with a hint of smile and cupped his hands towards the stage, "Fairy is great, I'm too talkative, so I volunteered to practice the Shutting Curse for three months."
Zhao Ning cupped her hands and returned the greeting, "Senior brother, I praise you very much."
The disciple actually pinched a silencing curse and sealed it on his mouth. He never spoke again, but he still stayed in the audience to watch the battle calmly.
But since then, no disciple seemed to want to come up to fight. Zhao Ning stood on the stage and waited for nearly half a stick of incense, while Qu Yi also lowered his hands, as if to declare the winner this time.
At this moment, Zhao Ning turned sideways and looked up at the towering tree ten feet away.
"Wouldn't you like to come up and give it a try?" This was said to the two people on the tree, maybe more than two people.
When everyone in the audience turned around in shock, they saw five people flying out of the towering trees, but they did not approach the platform, they were just wielding swords in mid-air.
A group of five people lined up, two women and three men, all of them handsome and cold.
"It's the five geniuses! They actually came to watch the competition. Didn't they say they were the last ones to appear?"
"Five geniuses appeared at the same time. How impressive is this registered disciple? Has her strength been recognized by the five geniuses?"
"Uh huh huh..."
"Since you've cast a silence curse, stop talking and just watch carefully."
"Hmm..." Apparently he regretted how he had become self-proclaimed so quickly. He couldn't speak, and his whole face turned red with excitement.
And Qu Yi on the stage no longer looked as casual as before. He straightened up and nodded to several people.
Zhao Ning remained calm and just slightly raised his hands to indicate, "I'm new here, so I'm taking the liberty."
"Fairy Zhao Ning is joking." The man in the light blue robe in the middle said, "It's our honor to have Fairy Zhao Ning enter our Ji Han Palace. It's really amazing to see the fairy's strength today."
"As soon as the fairy entered the Jihan Palace, a few of us heard about the fairy's name. We wanted to go visit one day, but we heard from Master Bai Ye that the fairy was obsessed with practicing, so we didn't bother him." The second from the left in Liuxian skirt. The fairy cupped her hands and said, "The Extreme Cold Palace Zhan Xuexuan."
Following Zhan Xuexuan's introduction, from left to right, the first person on the left is named Yu Dian, the man in the middle is named Nie Zhiyuan, and the following men and women are named Zhong Zishi and Cui Pei respectively.
What surprised Zhao Ning was that these people all practiced the ancient path, which was very different from other sects in Jiuzhou, where most of the geniuses were spiritually rooted.
Zhao Ning handed over his hand again, "Since I have practiced so far, I naturally want to form an elixir as soon as possible. This competition for Wuzhi Jianshui is fair and just, and it is under the supervision of Master Qu Yi. Why don't you come on stage and give it a try?"
On the one hand, Zhao Ning also wanted to test his strength among the geniuses, on the other hand, he wanted to gain a foothold in the unfamiliar Extreme Cold Palace. It was not just about defeating a few ordinary disciples. Gossip and rumors would still exist.
But these people obviously didn't want to give Zhao Ning a chance.
Nie Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Since Fairy Zhao Ning wants to improve his cultivation, why do we need to add obstacles? Today we have seen Fairy's strength, and all five of us recognize it, so there is no need to compete. Besides, getting Wuzhi Jianshui There are ten people in total for the quota, and the five of us, plus Fairy Zhao Ning, are more than enough, and there is no need to compete."
This was said arrogantly, but it was true. If they could fail at the hands of ordinary disciples, they would not be able to shoulder the title of genius above them.
Nie Zhiyuan took a distant look and said, "Master Qu Yi, what do you think?"
The words were respectful, but the tone showed equal status, and even meant to be superior to the real person. This was completely different from the Qingxiao Sect. If Jia Rui, who was a genius back then, dared to do this in front of the real person Huo Rong If we talk, there will be no such thing as "Lingxiao Peak and dogs are not allowed".
Zhao Ning suppressed all these strange things in her heart and only raised her eyes to see Master Qu Yi.
Qu Yi smiled and said, "I followed what Junior Nephew Nie said. Besides, after the competition just ended, Fairy Zhao Ning can get the quota."
As he spoke, he turned over his hand and took out an ice jade talisman and threw it towards Zhao Ning.
Zhao Ning bowed her hands slightly in salute, then raised her eyes and saw that the five geniuses had already left.
She didn't delve too deeply into the attitude of the five people towards her just now, and left the platform, stroking the ice jade talisman in her hand. With this ice jade talisman, Wuzhi Jianshui was already within her grasp.
In the next few days, Zhao Ning has been practicing in the cave, trying his best to consolidate and improve his cultivation, so that after getting the Wuzhijian water, he can be directly promoted to the foundation building perfection.
On this day, the flying boat of Jihan Palace stopped on the top of the snow mountain. As soon as Zhao Ning entered the flying boat, she saw Nie Zhiyuan, who greeted Zhao Ning with a smile.
"Miss Shen, you are the only one left."
Zhao Ning entered the boat and went to the pavilion only to find that the other eight people had arrived. In addition to the few geniuses she had seen, there were three people sitting in the tail seat. When they saw Zhao Ning, they stood up and bowed to Zhao Ning.
The three of them seemed not adapted to such an occasion, and did not communicate much with the five geniuses.
Zhao Ning sat in the middle, just closing her eyes quietly and concentrating. She neither approached the five geniuses nor won over the three disciples.
Just as the flying boat flew high, Zhao Ning suddenly heard three disciples talking quietly not far away.
"It seems like this Heavenly Palace hasn't left yet?"
"Since that day when I came to celebrate my birthday, I have been guarding the top. I heard that I was discussing something with Master Shuangtaki."
Perhaps after hearing the three disciples talking, the topic of the first five geniuses also turned to this.
"I heard that Tiangong wants Master Shuanglong to transform into a god as soon as possible."
"But the opportunity for the Master to transform into a god has not yet arrived. Moreover, the Master has cultivated a path that will be frozen forever. It is extremely difficult to freeze all human desires."
Chapter 191
Yuanling Island is in the outer sea area of Chengxuan Cultivation World, but it is not in the north of Jihan Palace. The sea area outside this world is concave, forming a huge inland sea between Chengxuan Cultivation World and Bianzhou Cultivation World. This makes Chengxuan The boundary with Bianzhou is not connected by land, but separated by a sea, which is the North Sea.
Three hundred miles offshore from the North Sea, Yuanling Island is located here. It is two hundred miles away. The island is covered with ice and fire, and some spiritual creatures that only appear under extreme conditions grow on the island.
