Tian Xiaoding, Cheng Yaowa, Lu Zhennian, and Zhang Datong were practicing on the top floor of the Immortal Pagoda facing the Tianyang Pearl.
The morning passed in the blink of an eye. While Xiao Ding was practicing, he was still thinking about how he could get the Tianyang Pearl into his own hands.
At this moment, the door on the thirteenth floor of the Immortal Pagoda opened. A disciple from Shouyang Peak walked in carrying a food box. He came to deliver lunch to Xiao Ding and the four of them.
When Xiao Ding saw this man, he suddenly thought that there was a barrier outside the Immortal Pagoda and there were so many door locks inside. How did he get in?
Although Wu Dou Zhenren may not lock all the doors on each floor when he comes down from the tower, but the barrier outside the tower is not something that anyone can enter casually, right?
So, Xiao Ding asked strangely: "Senior brother, how did you enter the barrier outside the tower?"
Hearing this, the food delivery man smiled slightly and said: "Junior brother, you may not know that I am the person responsible for guarding the back mountain ancestral hall and the Immortal Pagoda this month. The master sent me and Junior Brother Liu to guard this month. We take turns guarding the courtyard of the ancestral hall, so we also have the jade token that opens the barrier."
The jade tablet that can open the enchantment naturally contains the spell to break the enchantment, so use the jade tablet to shake it against the enchantment and the enchantment will open.
When Xiao Ding heard this, he couldn't help but look at the food delivery man again, but he was thinking to himself: If he wants to steal the Tianyang Pearl in the future, he must first get a piece that can open the outside of the tower. Only the jade token for the barrier will do. But I don’t have to worry about the jade plaque belonging to Master Wu Dou. It’s something I can’t get even if I want to. But the man in front of him actually has a jade card, so we can take advantage of him when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ding couldn't help but clasped his fists and asked, "Thank you for your hard work, senior brother. I don't know what his surname is, how do you call him?"
The person who delivered the food quickly put down the food box and responded politely: "This is Chen Dazhong, an inner disciple of Shouyang Peak. Could it be that you are the young outer disciple Tian Xiaoding who is famous for his ability to defeat the weak and the strong in the sect - Junior Brother Tian? ?”
Xiao Ding politely replied: "That's right, it's Senior Brother Chen. Nice to meet you!"
Chen Dazhong also said politely: "Nice to meet you! Junior Brother Tian is indeed a talented person with extraordinary temperament!"
The two of them were polite, and Chen Dazhong took out the food from the food box and said to the four of them: "You should eat quickly. If we continue talking, the food will get cold."
The four of them nodded in agreement and started eating lunch.
For the next three days, this Shouyang Peak disciple named Chen Dazhong came to deliver meals to the four of them every day, and helped clear away the tableware and clean the toilet.
After three days of practice, Xiao Ding had greatly improved his fire control skills as he had imagined, and could now condense a fireball the size of a goose egg. Moreover, the speed of condensing fireballs is twice as fast as before.
Senior Sister Cheng Yaowen, Lu Zhennian, and Zhang Datong have already reached the Great Perfection of Qi cultivation. It is impossible for them to rely on the Tianyang Pearl to enter the foundation building stage.
However, some of the small solar spells of the three of them have been improved. It's just that their own cultivation has reached the peak of the Qi training period, so their improvement is not as significant as Xiao Ding's.
When leaving the Immortal Pagoda, it was Chen Dazhong who sent the four people away. Every time they walked down a floor, Chen Dazhong locked the door of the room on the upper floor. After locking all the doors on the thirteenth floor of the Immortal Treasure Pagoda, he used the jade tablet to open the barrier outside the tower and led Xiao Ding and the four of them out of the Immortal Treasure Pagoda.
Xiao Ding and the other four walked directly out of the courtyard of the ancestral hall and walked towards the front mountain, while Chen Dazhong returned to a room in the ancestral hall to rest.
When the four of them returned to the main hall of Shouyang Peak, the leader and the leaders of the other seven peaks were there, but Lian Zhaocai, the city lord of Tianyang City, had already returned to Tianyang City.
Seeing Xiao Ding and the four of them walking into the hall, the leader Tianshu Zhenren smiled and greeted the four of them.

Asked: "How did you four gain?"
After the four people saluted, they answered truthfully about their respective situations.
After hearing this, Master Tianshu smiled and nodded, and then said: "In that case, you should go back and rest first. The third day of next month will be the day when the Qinggu Secret Realm opens, and our Tianyang Sect is still a long way from the Qinggu Secret Realm. , you need to go half a month in advance. Therefore, you should take advantage of the few days before departure to make preparations for going to the Qinggu Secret Realm in advance."
The four of them nodded in agreement, exited the hall, and returned to their respective peaks.
After listening to Master Tianshu's words, Xiao Ding thought to himself that since he needed to go to the Qinggu Secret Realm half a month in advance, he would have to leave on February 18th. And today is already the sixth day of February, less than half a month before the departure date.
All the talismans that I had purchased before were used in the last game of the sect competition. It seems that I still have to make another trip to Tianyang City during these few days of free time. Without preparing more talismans, how can I protect myself when I go to the Qinggu Secret Realm?
After making up his mind, Xiao Ding returned to Kaiyangfeng dormitory and expressed his thoughts to Li Tianliang and the others.
Li Tianliang, Deng Feng and Shan Tong heard that Xiao Ding was going to Tianyang City again, so they wanted to go with them.
Xiao Ding felt that it didn't matter if they went together, so he nodded in agreement.
Early the next morning, Xiao Ding and the other four had just gotten up and had not gone to have breakfast when Su Lanlan ran over.
She took another robe and a pair of boots in her hand, handed them to Xiao Ding and said: "Brother Xiao Ding, I saw the senior sister going back last night. I knew you had returned, so I came to see you this morning. "
Seeing that Su Lanlan was so affectionate towards him, Xiao Ding felt grateful and said, "Lan Lan, you don't have to make clothes for me all the time. I will go to Tianyang City after breakfast later and I can buy ready-made clothes to wear. "
Su Lanlan pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "That won't work. I'll only be happy if you wear the clothes I made for you!"
Xiao Ding saw Su Lanlan's cute appearance, smiled and stroked her head, and said: "Lan Lan, you are a big girl now, so you have to be obedient. You have to believe what Brother Xiao Ding says and practice more when you have time. , Only when you are strong will you not be bullied by others."
Su Lanlan nodded obediently and said: "Brother Ding, I listen to you, but my cultivation level is almost catching up with yours, don't you think I'm still not fast? Besides, my making clothes and shoes will not delay my cultivation. .”
When Xiao Ding heard this, he felt ashamed. He had practiced several years earlier than Su Lanlan, but now he was about to catch up with Su Lanlan. Compared with Su Lanlan, who has no Tiangen, and Su Lanlan's single-line Lei Tiangen, there is a huge difference!
However, he still said stubbornly: "It's not a big deal if you catch up with me. It's really powerful if you catch up with Senior Sister. By the way, I plan to go to Tianyang City after eating later. Is there anything you need me to buy for you?"
"Brother Xiao Ding, are you going to Tianyang City?" Su Lanlan asked with big eyes flashing.
"Yes, I'll go there after dinner soon." Xiao Ding replied.
"Then I'll go with you! Brother Xiao Ding, can you take me with you?" Su Lanlan looked at Xiao Ding expectantly and asked.
"Are you going too?" Xiao Ding didn't expect Su Lanlan to want to go too.
"Well, I also want to visit Tianyang City!" Su Lanlan nodded and said.
Xiao Ding thought for a moment, and then said: "Okay, then I'll take you with me."
Su Lanlan also came to Kaiyangfeng first without having breakfast, so Xiao Ding and others went to Kaiyangfeng's cafeteria and had breakfast together.
Then, the five people left the mountain gate of Shouyang Peak and headed for Tianyang City.
They have walked the road to Tianyang City several times and are already familiar with it. However, when there are more people, the speed of traveling
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Naturally it is much slower.
This time, Xiao Ding is not in a hurry. Anyway, there are still about ten days until the departure time for Qinggu Secret Realm. He just needs to return to Tianyang Sect before February 18th.
Everyone was talking and laughing along the way, and it didn't feel dull at all.
On this day, they were walking on a mountain ridge when they suddenly saw a man in the middle of the mountain road ahead with his back to them, sitting cross-legged, holding a huge sword in his arms.
Although the sword was half blocked by the man's upper body, a long section was still exposed.
Xiao Ding and others stopped when they came near the man.
Atop the barren mountains, there was a strange man sitting in the middle of the road. No one knew where he came from, and it was impossible to tell whether he was an enemy or a friend. Therefore, out of caution, they did not dare to step forward.
At this time, the man sitting in the middle of the mountain road had heard the footsteps of Xiao Ding and others, so he suddenly asked: "Are you all cultivators?"
Xiao Ding didn't know the other party's details, so he had to take a step forward and replied: "We are disciples of Tianyang Sect. I wonder who you are?"
When the man heard Xiao Ding say the word Tianyang Sect, he immediately stood up, turned around to face Xiao Ding and others, and then asked: "Since you are disciples of Tianyang Sect, you must know how to use a sword? Come on? Come here, I want to compete with you!"
When Xiao Ding saw the man turning around, he couldn't see what he looked like because the man had a black mask on his face. Moreover, Xiao Ding felt that the style of this mask seemed to have been seen somewhere before.
However, although you can't see clearly what the other person looks like, you can indeed see that the other person's beard is somewhat gray and he seems to be around fifty years old. His height is only slightly shorter than Xiao Ding's. , can be considered a tall person.
The most eye-catching thing was the giant sword he held in his arms. This huge sword was very wide, as wide as two hands. Standing on the ground, it could be as high as the man's shoulders. The hilt of the lightsaber must be two feet long, and the length of the sword should be more than five feet. The black leather scabbard is printed with patterns, and the red sword tassels flutter in the wind.
It seems that the weight of this giant sword must be at least dozens of kilograms, or even hundreds of kilograms.
There is actually a large spiritual sword in Xiao Ding's space. When he was in that ancient country on Earth, someone else stole the spiritual sword from the Spirit Sword Villa, and then the spiritual sword fell into Xiao Ding's hands. .
However, although his spiritual sword was also very wide, it was still nothing compared to the giant sword of the man in front of him.
When Xiao Ding heard that the other party wanted to compete with him, he quickly said: "You and I have never met each other, and we have no grudges, so why do we need to compete with each other? There is a way to turn conflicts into friendship. Senior, you should get out of the way and let me wait. For good!"
But the man snorted coldly and said: "Since you are members of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, you must compete with me before you can pass. Otherwise, don't even think about passing by today!"
Seeing that the other party was so persistent, Xiao Ding had no choice but to say: "You don't know something. Although I am a disciple of Tianyang Sect, my weapon is not a sword..."
The man didn't wait for Xiao Ding to finish speaking, then interrupted and said: "If your Immortal Sword Sect doesn't use swords as weapons, do you use other weapons?"
Xiao Ding could only nod and said: "Yes, I am a disciple who has just joined Tianyang Sect, and I have never learned swordsmanship before."
The man shook his head and continued: "I don't care, I'm very bored today anyway. You guys are unlucky enough to meet me, so you have to compete with me before you can pass, otherwise you won't be able to pass here." !”
Xiao Ding grinned when he heard this and thought to himself, who is this? How can anyone force others to compete with him in sword competition?
