"Changyang, this is not your real name. Your appearance and aura are also disguised." The woman in white said expressionlessly.
Jian Chen smiled and said calmly: "Does it mean that Qingtian City has a rule that everyone who participates in the competition for official positions must use their true identity? If a false identity is used, doesn't it mean that there is no such person to participate in the competition for official positions in Qingtian City?"
Jian Chen already knew the rules of competition for official positions in Qingtian City. He also learned that in the history of Qingtian City, many immortals who held official positions would hide their true identities for various reasons.
Therefore, he was very sure that the main reason why Qingtian City's weapon spirit came forward was the Ziqing Sword Spirit.
It seemed that even the weapon spirits of Qingtian City couldn't believe that the master of the purple and green swords would actually come to Qingtian City to serve.
"You should think carefully. Once you take up a position in Qingtian City, you will be bound by the rules of Qingtian City. These rules will not only restrict you personally, but also the artifacts on your body." Qingtian City Artifact Spirit said in tone Said solemnly, when saying these words, its eyes became extremely sharp, as if it had seen through everything about Jian Chen, and was looking directly at the purple and green swords hidden in Jian Chen's body.
It felt like it was not telling Jian Chen what it said, but telling the purple and green swords in Jian Chen's body.
Qingtian City Weapon Spirit obviously cannot ignore this existence that once made him extremely jealous and even afraid.
From the beginning to the end, the purple and green swords did not show up. They have been hidden deep inside Jian Chen's body, as if they had no face to show up.
"Of course I understand the rules of Qingtian City. Since I have decided to compete for the official position in Qingtian City, I must abide by them." Jian Chen said, cupping his fists.
Qingtian City's weapon spirit said no more, its figure quietly disappeared, just like when it appeared, it came without a trace, left without a trace, and made no sound at all.
Immediately afterwards, a battle token appeared in front of Jian Chen out of thin air, as if it were made of gold, with a brilliant golden light that was truly dazzling.
Jian Chen held the token in his hand, and immediately injected a ray of spiritual power into the token, silently chanting in his heart: "Changyang, casual cultivator!"
The next moment, the battle token glowed brightly. When the light converged again, four words appeared quietly on the token - Changyang, casual cultivator!
Jian Chen's information has been recorded on the token!
In the next three days, Jian Chen stayed behind closed doors and stayed in the inn room with his eyes closed and meditating. He was thinking back on his cultivation progress in the past ten years and couldn't help but sigh.
In the past ten years, he has been studying the way of swordsmanship in the Zixiao Sword Sect. Because the level of the Zixiao Sword Sect's sect-protecting formation is too low, it cannot resist the intrusion of high-level Immortal Emperors or even powerful Immortal Realm masters. , so just in case, he did not use the Divine Jade of Creation to practice.
Therefore, during those ten years, even though he was immersed in the laws of swordsmanship, he still did not improve at all.
When the realm has reached his level, every step forward is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Every breakthrough is a blessing. The difficulties and hardships are far beyond what has been possible before.
In addition, there is another problem that deeply troubles Jian Chen, and that is the path after the Chaos Body.
He only mastered the cultivation path of the eighteenth level. Now his body of chaos has reached the seventeenth level. If he makes another breakthrough, he will reach the highest level of the eighteenth level. As for after the eighteenth level, although there is a great perfection.
But Dzogchen is a legend in the immortal world. From ancient times to the present, no one can touch that state.
The eighteenth level of the Chaos Body is equivalent to the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm in the Immortal World.
Therefore, the road that Jian Chen can see now can only reach the realm of the Immortal Emperor's Ninth Heaven.
As for the road to the Immortal Lord, it is still a dead end with no direction in sight.
"The path of cultivation of the Chaos Body is somewhat similar to that of the Wuhun lineage. When leading to the Immortal Realm, there are strong points that are difficult to break through. However, what the Chaos Body seals is the growth of cultivation in the body, making oneself The power of cultivation in the body has stagnated, but the realm has not been affected."
"As for the martial soul lineage, what is sealed now is the growth of realm. The power of cultivation in the body can still be improved through alternative methods."
"But not only am I cultivating the body of chaos, but I am also a descendant of the martial soul lineage. My realm and cultivation level will be blocked."
When he thought about this problem, Jian Chen felt dizzy.
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and in Qingtian City, a long bell sounded throughout the city, indicating that this time the competition for the position of the Thousand Immortals has officially begun!
Jian Chen is still staying in the inn, not only him, but all the Immortal Emperor Realms who came this time to participate in the Thousand Immortal Generals position are all scattered in every corner of Qingtian City.
When the battle officially started, all the contestants who had signed up had their participation tokens shining brightly. The next moment, all of them disappeared together with their participation tokens.
At the same time, in the high sky of Qingtian City, a huge golden list also emerged, which was as high as a thousand feet. It stood like a tower between heaven and earth, exuding an invisible oppressive force.
One name after another appeared on the golden list, all of which were strong men participating in the Thousand Immortal Generals position. In addition to their names, each contestant's cultivation level and the forces behind them were all marked.
"Zongkong, Ancient Temple Island, the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm!"
"Xia Mingtian, Immortal Feather Sect, ninth level of Immortal Emperor Realm!"
"Zhou Dan, the Ups and Downs Immortal Sect, the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm!"
"Zi Huaiyu, the Luo family, the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm!
"Ye Qingyun, Ye Family, the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm!"
...
A total of one hundred and seventy-three names are listed on the golden list, and all of them are at the ninth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm. Among them are many top forces from the famous Immortal Realm, and even Heavenly Court-level forces!
However, there is only one exception!
"Changyang, casual cultivator, sixth level of Immortal Emperor Realm!"
At the very end of the golden list, a particularly eye-catching and attention-grabbing name appeared.
It's not because of how resounding this name is, but because among the one hundred and seventy-three Immortal Emperors on the entire list, this is the only one who is not in the realm of the Nine Heavens.
Moreover, he is still a casual cultivator!
"Rogue cultivators? Rogue cultivators actually dare to compete for the position of Thousand Immortal Generals. This is too ignorant..."
"It's just a casual cultivator, but the key is that his strength is only at the sixth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm. I'm afraid he doesn't know how to write the word "death"..."
"Although the Sixth Heaven of the Immortal Emperor Realm is also a strong one, don't look where this is. In this battlefield that only belongs to the Nine Heavens, what is a mere Sixth Heaven doing? It's not too much trouble... ..."
"For such a quota of Thousand Immortal Generals, many well-known top forces in the Immortal World, and even powerful beings from the Heavenly Court-level forces, have to go through a bloody battle. Which one of them has mastered a powerful artifact or practiced ancient magic? Kung Fu, mastering the mysterious secret techniques, really makes the fight very powerful. You think you are just a casual cultivator from the sixth heaven coming to join in the fun. It’s really a joke..."
"Just wait, this sixth-level guy will be eliminated when the first round starts..."
...
In Qingtian City, some immortals locked their eyes on the bottom name and couldn't help muttering, most of them mocking words.
While many immortals in Qingtian City were talking about Jian Chen, Jian Chen and the other one hundred and seventy-two contestants had already appeared in an independent space.
Since Jian Chen did not hide his aura, the people around him soon discovered his presence, and all their eyes turned around, focusing on Jian Chen.
"Fellow Taoist, your realm seems a bit low. Is it the fifth heaven? Or the sixth heaven? But no matter it is the fifth heaven or the sixth heaven, in short, you cannot be in the late stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm. With this kind of strength, you dare to Are you here to participate in the competition for the position of Qianxian General? Aren't you afraid that someone will accidentally miss you and kill you by mistake?" An old man wearing Taoist robes said in surprise.
"Crazy old man, please don't scare the younger generation. Although the competition for official positions in Qingtian City is fierce, there has never been an example of death in the ring. With the weapon spirits of Qingtian City personally supervising, let alone us Immortal Emperors." Fighting, even if it is a higher-level immortal battle, no one will die. In the worst-case scenario, you will only lose your physical body, but your soul can still be preserved." A middle-aged man next to him chuckled, and immediately He glanced at the golden list in the sky, his eyes fell on the name at the bottom, and said to Jian Chen: "Fellow Taoist Changyang, don't be unhappy if I say something, you are a casual cultivator of the sixth heaven It is indeed meaningless to come here to participate in the competition for the position of Qianxian General."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for telling me. I just came here to try my luck. I don't really care about victory or defeat." Jian Chen said with a smile and cupped his fists.
"Try your luck? Huh, this is not a place to try your luck. There are one hundred and seventy-three contestants this time, and there is one more person, so one person has a bye in the first round. Even if this lucky person is you, you can't escape. Elimination in the second round." A young man sneered, then paused and said, "Besides, according to past examples, it is absolutely impossible for the person who gets a bye in the first round to be you."
Jian Chen smiled indifferently, and was too lazy to engage in meaningless arguments with everyone. He immediately sat cross-legged in the air, closed his eyes, and listened to nothing outside the window.
Soon, numerous energy light groups appeared in the void. Each light group was guarded by the power of Qingtian City, making it impossible to peek inside.
There is a number in each light group. When the two numbers are the same, it means that they are your opponents.
Among the one hundred and seventy-three light clusters, except for one of the light clusters that was empty, the remaining one hundred and seventy-two light clusters all contained a number.
