The Heavenly Acupoint can only be opened when one breaks through the Tianyuan realm, but it mainly depends on talent and qualifications. For cultivators with mediocre qualifications, the number of openings is very limited or even impossible.
And those with extraordinary qualifications, or after taking some genius treasures, can open more heavenly points.
The number of Tianyuan acupoints also determines the strength of Tianyuan cultivators to a certain extent.
For example, in the previous Tianyuan level competition, Nan Tianlong had thirty-two heavenly acupoints, while Yuanchu had twenty-seven. Although both of them had reached the primary cycle of heavenly acupoints, they were unable to absorb the vitality or spiritual energy of heaven and earth. , Nan Tianlong is slightly better than Yuanchu.
Just as Zhou Yang was understanding it carefully, Chun Yuting, the elder of Daye Sect, was furious.
"Damn it, damn it!" Chun Yuting smashed the teacup and his face turned livid.
Zhou Yang was actually taken away by Zhou Tianzong. He knew very well what this meant. It would be too difficult to cause trouble for Zhou Yang in the future.
At this time, he was very regretful. He regretted that he had not taken the murderer seriously because he had taken too much care.
Tianxing Sect and Zhou Tianzong are thousands of miles apart. As a disciple of Zhou Tianzong, especially an elite disciple, he would not dare to take action easily.
"Uncle, what should we do?" Chunyu Ke stood beside him with his hands hanging down, his face looking very pale.
"Oh, let's think about it in the long term." Chunyu Ting fell down on the large armchair, put his hand on his forehead, and sighed slumped.
Deacon's Office of Tianxingmen Outer Gate.
"The fourth child was left in Zhou Tianzong. Why?" Tiger asked puzzledly.
"Third brother, can you use your brain?" Dahu said angrily.
"Me!" Tiger was furious.
"The third master, Brother Zhou entered the top ten in the city-wide competition. Under such circumstances, being called into Zhou Tianzong must be a good thing!" Hu Zhiran said with a smile.
"Good thing! Could it be that Zhou Tianzong has taken a fancy to him?" Song Laosan finally came to his senses.
Dahu felt a little resentful and said, "Humph, your big head finally didn't faint from being filled with cat urine!"
"Hey, brother, your brother and I are not stupid." Tiger said sarcastically.
"Little Yangzi must have left in a hurry. He will give us an explanation when he comes back." Xing'er looked a little resentful. .
"Yes, at least he will come back to say goodbye." Tiehu said.
"Brother Zhou is not an ordinary person. Sooner or later he will soar to the sky. Even the small Dingbei or even the larger city cannot restrain him!" Wu Changan said excitedly.
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
The next morning, Qi Meng waited in front of Zhou Yang's residence early, holding a fourth-level high-level green wolf in his hand.
When he saw Zhou Yang coming out, he hurriedly bowed: "Captain Zhou, my subordinates have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Zhou Yang took the Qinglang, nodded slightly, reached out and took out a spirit stone bag from his arms and handed it over: "Qi Sizuo, thank you, please help yourself."
Qi Meng's face was filled with joy, and he respectfully took the bag of spirit stones and said, "Thank you Captain Zhou for the reward. If you have any instructions in the future, I just say it doesn't matter. I will do my best to help you!"
Zhou Yang smiled and urged the green wolf to head towards the gate of Zhou Tianzong.
At this time, Zhou Tianzong was already full of people, and there were bluebirds and giant eagles flying in the sky. They were all disciples who were out training.
There are also many disciples riding green wolves, but more of them are walking in groups on the wide streets.
Zhou Yang had already put on the loose black Taoist robes of Zhou Tianzong. He was no different from other disciples. He rode slowly on the green wolf without attracting too many people's attention.
"Which hall are you from? What are you doing out there?" Seeing Zhou Yang coming to the gate alone, a guard captain stopped him.
These guards had just switched defenses today, so they didn't know Zhou Yang.
Without saying anything, he took out his identity token and handed it over.
The guard captain took the token, but his expression changed after his consciousness sank in. He looked at Zhou Yang, and then probed his consciousness again with some uncertainty. Until he was convinced that the token was real, he gave a slight salute and raised his hands. He handed over the token and said, "It turns out to be Captain Zhou. I wonder why you are out?"
"Participate in the city-wide competition." Zhou Yang said calmly.
"Okay, Captain Zhou, please!" The guard captain quickly ordered the others to get out of the way.
The guard's words made some disciples around the gate look askance.
"Captain of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Punishment Hall, why haven't I seen this person before? Boss, have you seen him?" After Zhou Yang left the sect, a guard disciple asked.
"Nonsense, if I had seen him, I would ask him why he wanted the token!" the guard captain said angrily.
"It's really weird. With his age and cultivation, how can he take on the role of captain of the execution hall's law enforcement? From my point of view, even the deputy captain is a bit reluctant." The other disciples also had a look of surprise on their faces.
"Yes, the execution hall law enforcement team is very special in the sect, and the status of the captain is much higher than that of other halls. This person, who is only at the peak of Lingtai cultivation, actually holds such an important position. Could it be that he is the junior of a certain big shot? ?”
"Have you never heard of such a person?"
"By the way, I heard that the sect is going to select a group of young talents as elite disciples in this city-wide competition. Is he one of them?"
"Even if it is, how can a newcomer be qualified to hold the important position of law enforcement captain?"
"You ask me, I'm going to ask who is going!"
Zhou Yang's spiritual consciousness was not inferior to that of early Tianyuan cultivators. Although he had walked a certain distance, he still listened to the discussions of the guards and sect disciples without missing a word.
Shaking his head, Zhou Yang urged Qinglang and headed straight for the Nancheng Competition Square.
When he rushed to the entrance of the square, not many participating disciples arrived, but the butcher arrived.
After arranging Qing Lang, he waited for a while, and the disciples of Zhou Tianzong arrived one after another.
These people had all seen Zhou Yang and Butcher yesterday. Seeing them wearing Zhou Tianzong Taoist robes, some of them had a look of surprise in their eyes, and then it became clear that they had long heard about the selection of talents within the sect.
After the disciples of the sect arrived, they were personally led by Chong Rulin, the elder of Jinjiawei, and lined up into the Zhoutian Sect area in the center of the square.
In addition to Chong Rulin, there were eight other Tianyuan peak elders who were present yesterday.
This Elder Chong is the person with the highest status in the Zhou Tian Sect of the Chong family.
In the queue, the masked beauty appeared again, and Zhou Yang couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The woman seemed to be aware of it. She turned her head slightly and glanced at Zhou Yang. Instantly, there was an icy feeling. If it weren't for his physical attributes being on the fire side and the fire phoenix inner armor having the effect of keeping out the cold, it wouldn't have been for that bone-piercing force. It was so cold that I shivered.
"What a scary look, what a powerful skill. Could it be that this mysterious Senior Sister Tong has practiced powerful ice skills?" Zhou Yang muttered in his heart and hurriedly looked away.
In the competition square, all disciples from all factions are present.
"Yesterday's competition at the Lingtai level has determined the fifty places to enter the secret realm based on the number of jade medals obtained. The specific list is as follows..." Qiu Yiming announced in front of everyone when the first moment of the hour came.
The top fifty disciples were all rewarded with one Tianyuan Pill and one hundred Daluo Pills. Five days later, they gathered outside the South City Gate and entered the secret realm inside Bai Zong Mountain.
Today's competition is to select three out of ten, and the top three will be rewarded by the city lord's palace with a top-notch ancient magic weapon, a spiritual enlightenment pill, three Tianyuan pills, and three hundred Daluo pills.
Four to ten will receive one top-quality magic weapon, one Enlightenment Pill, two Tianyuan Pills, and two hundred Great Rod Pills.
"The best ancient magic weapon! Alas, if I own one, my strength will be greatly improved!"
"The Pill of Enlightenment is not bad, it is a panacea that can comprehend the way of heaven!" This newly built City Lord's Mansion is really generous! "
"Yeah, we don't have to think about the first two things, even if we can get a Tianyuan Pill. This kind of pill can't be bought with any amount of spiritual stones!"
"If you're capable, you can also participate in the competition. What are you doing here?"
The disciples of the three sects who were watching the battle in the audience showed envy and started talking.
"What's the point? Being able to enter the secret realm is the biggest reward. Do you know that the secret realm is only opened once every hundred years, and it has been exactly a hundred years since it was last opened. This competition also happened to catch up with this opportunity, so it is based on the competition The places will be chosen through ranking competition." A deacon leading the Taiqing Sect said to the disciples behind him.
In fact, he just heard about it yesterday, but it is no longer a secret, so there is no harm in talking about it.
"Oh, Lord Deacon, what are the benefits of entering the secret realm?"
"For the past five hundred years, only disciples of the Lingtai realm have been able to enter the secret realm to practice. In the secret realm, the chance of spiritual practitioners advancing to Tianyuan will be greatly increased, and the bottleneck shackles can be easily broken.
Coupled with the effects of Enlightenment Pill and Tianyuan Pill, it is difficult not to advance. Also, there are a lot of treasures in the secret realm, and the opportunities are endless! "
The deacon's words made all the disciples scratch their hearts, wishing they could enter the secret realm.
"Sir, can only these fifty Lingtai disciples enter?" A disciple asked unwillingly.
"Didn't the Deputy City Lord Gongxi say that in addition to these fifty people, the leaders of the three sects can also select ten disciples on their own, for a total of sixty people to enter the secret realm."
"Then, do we still have a chance?"
"It's just you!" The deacon of Taiqing Sect glanced at the disciple with obvious disdain.
"This disciple is also at the peak level of Lingtai. It's a pity that his strength is lower, otherwise he would have to participate in the competition no matter what. It's really depressing!" Another disciple also sighed.
"Master Deacon, I have been a member of the sect for twenty years, why have I never heard of the secret realm?" said a captain-level elite disciple.
"It is said that this matter has never been made public, and the number of places in previous years is limited. They are all selected in secret, and only the top leaders of each faction know about it. As for why it is made public this time, I don't know."
"oh."
On the viewing platform, none of the leaders of the three factions were present, and the only master of the golden elixir who was sitting there was Fudo Master.
"The rules of this competition still follow the elimination principle. If you lose, you can admit defeat. After admitting defeat, the opponent is not allowed to fight again, otherwise you will be disqualified.
The top five will be determined in the first round. Among the five participating disciples in the second round, the one who won the most jade medals yesterday will get a bye and directly enter the top three.
In the third round, the byes will compete against the person who won the second round but won the fewest jade medals. The winner of the two disciples will compete with the last person for the top spot in the competition. The next five will also proceed according to this rule.
Okay, the disciples who have entered the top ten should quickly go to the Judgment Deacon's office to draw lots. After the lot is drawn, the competition will begin immediately! "Qiu Yiming continued.
