"This is a 'Crazy Devil's Knife'..."
Elder Liu spoke solemnly, and stared at Elder Xiu closely with a pair of gray-white pupils.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
Elder Xiu's expression also became much more serious.
He didn't know how to answer.
Or maybe I haven’t decided how to answer yet.
"It turns out that you haven't thought about the consequences carefully yet..." Elder Liu shook his head slightly, then poured tea into the two cups on the table.
Then, he said: "I know you are not willing to give in. If you hadn't been resolute and forced to keep this martial arts, "Blood Cultivation One Sword Slash" would have been designated as a 'taboo martial arts' and would even be banned. Destroy it, but even so, the sect is not willing to release this martial arts again and teach it to its disciples. If it were not for our decades of friendship, I would not agree to you..."
Elder Xiu clenched his fists involuntarily.
Elder Liu continued: ""Blood Cultivation One Sword Slash" has very big flaws. You know this better than me. If you hadn't practiced this martial art back then, you would definitely be able to sit in the Five Halls now. The position of one of the Lords..."
Elder Xiu clenched his fists tighter.
After a while, he replied: "I just want the world to know that there are people who can control "Blood Cultivation One Sword Slash"."
"But even you failed." Elder Liu raised his eyelids slightly, and there was an inexplicable sharpness in his gray-white eyes: "You used to be known as the 'Piaomiao Sect's No. 1 Martial Arts Fool', and you could master any martial arts as soon as you learned it. Any shortcomings are obvious at a glance. But you ruined your future because of "Blood Cultivation with One Sword", and now after so many years, you still refuse to convince yourself?"
After Elder Liu's words, the atmosphere fell into silence again.
Elder Xiu seemed to have been touched on something deepest in his heart. He picked up the water glass in front of him, clasped it with his five fingers, and then said with great determination: "He is better than me. I believe he will do better than me."
"Alas!" He sighed softly. Elder Liu had nothing to do with Elder Xiu's persistence. Finally, he said, "You should find an opportunity to make it clear to him instead of making a choice for him."
"Yes, I will." Elder Xiu nodded.
Just then...
"Roar!"
An earth-shattering tiger roar spread over the martial arts pavilion.
Immediately afterwards, a surge of arrogance was released in all directions.
Elders Xiu and Liu subconsciously stood up and looked towards the main building of the Martial Arts Pavilion.
The door of the main building was rushed open by a powerful wave of air. Inside, Xiao Nuo stood upright, with a chaotic air current exuding from his body.
Xiao Nuo's momentum was extremely strong, and the rapid air flow moved around him.
Every part of his body seemed to contain dark energy as deep as the ocean.
Although Xiao Nuo is still at the first level of the Qi Control Realm, the feeling at this moment is even more extraordinary.
On the top loft on the other side.
Elder Liu had a look of surprise on his face.
"Have you reached the standard of practicing "Dark Tiger Canghai Jin" so quickly?"
The elder Xiu next to him showed surprise. He said: "It's two hours faster than I expected..."
Elder Liu was even more startled.
Practicing "Dark Tiger Canghai Jin" requires very high physical strength, so the sect created this illusion space for its disciples to practice.
Among the many Piaomiao Sect disciples, it takes at least ten days and a half to reach the standard.
Anyone who can complete it in three or four days is already a top genius.
Even though the former "number one martial arts idiot in the sect" in front of him had stayed inside for a whole day before reaching the standard line of practicing "Dark Tiger Canghai Jin".
And Xiao Nuo probably didn't even take half an hour from the time he entered to the time he came out.
"Is this boy's physical strength really so powerful?" Elder Liu said in a deep voice.
Elder Xiu also showed an exciting smile on his face: "I'll just say it! He will do better than me."
But hearing the other party say this, Elder Liu became even more worried.
"Old cultivator, you may not like to hear what I say, but the more good a seedling is, the more cautious you should be. If he is destroyed because of that 'Crazy Demon Sword Technique', it will be a disaster for the entire Piaomiao Sect. Loss. That’s it for now, I won’t say anything else..."
Immediately, Elder Liu patted Elder Xiu on the shoulder, and then walked down from the attic.
The smile on Elder Xiu's face gradually faded.
He knew Elder Liu's worries and also knew that the other party was doing it for his own good.
But over the years, his heart has been full of unwillingness.
…
In the main building.
The aura emanating from Xiao Nuo gradually converged. He raised his right arm and made a fist with his five fingers. He could clearly feel that a powerful punch was about to rush out.
After learning many details of this martial arts, Xiao Nuo was even more certain that this "Dark Tiger Canghai Jin" was an upgraded and enhanced version of "Nine Continuous Collapse Attacks".
The "Nine Continuous Collapse Attacks" that Elder Xiu taught everyone at the No. 24 Kung Fu Platform was probably simplified through this martial arts.
With the foundation of "Nine Continuous Collapse Strikes", Xiao Nuo will definitely get twice the result with half the effort if he practices this martial art again.
"Are you done? Let's go when you're done!" At this time, the old voice came to Xiao Nuo's ears again.
Xiao Nuo raised his eyes slightly and asked subconsciously: "Excuse me, were these two martial arts selected by senior for me?"
"Where do so many questions come from? I've already said, 'Do you want love?' It's too late to ask again now."
"All right!"
Xiao Nuo guessed that the manager of the Martial Arts Pavilion also had a bad temper, so he immediately stopped communicating with him.
With his hands slightly clasped into fists, Xiao Nuo gave a simple salute, then turned and left.
…
Nirvana Hall!
"A mission? Real or fake? Isn't this too soon?"
In the meeting hall, Guan Xiang looked at Lou Qing in front of him in astonishment.
Lan Meng and Chang Qing next to them also looked puzzled.
I saw a letter in Lou Qing's hand. In addition to a few paragraphs of text, the letter also had the seal of the third elder of the Piaomiao Sect.
"This is undoubtedly the handwriting of the third elder, and no one dares to forge the seal." Lou Qing said, looking at Guan and wondering: "Where is Xiao Nuo?"
"He went to the Martial Arts Pavilion to receive the reward for a second-grade disciple, and he hasn't come back yet." Guan wanted to answer.
"Go find him." Lou Qing said.
"oh!"
Guan wanted to nod, and just as he was about to go out, a familiar figure came from outside.
"Can I help you?"
"Huh?" Several people looked around and saw Xiao Nuo coming back.
"You're back..." Lan Meng took a step forward, and then said: "The third elder just sent someone to deliver documents, asking you to go and perform the sect's mission."
Xiao Nuo was also a little surprised: "Zongmen mission?"
I was promoted to a second-grade disciple just yesterday, and it has been less than two months since I joined the Piaomiao Sect. Will I be participating in the sect's mission so soon?
Guan Xiang reminded: "You can refuse, just find any reason."
As soon as Guan Xiang finished speaking, Chang Qing raised his hand and said, "It's a good thing to have tasks assigned."
"Oh?" Xiao Nuo was confused.
The other party explained: "As soon as you were promoted to the second-grade disciple, the sect assigned you a task, which means that the higher-ups of the sect have paid attention to you. They will evaluate your other abilities by assigning tasks. If you can If you complete all the tasks assigned by the sect, the sect's attention will become higher and higher, and it will provide a lot of help for you to advance to the first-level disciple..."
Chang Qing's words dispelled Xiao Nuo's confusion.
Lan Meng also nodded and affirmed: "Indeed, the sect will not assign tasks to you for no reason. It is probably because you shined in the inner sect assessment this time and attracted the attention of the higher-ups, so I want to train you. "
Guan Xiang said again: "But Junior Brother Xiao Nuo will have a duel with Liang Xingchen in half a year. If he goes on a mission at this time, will it affect his practice?"
As soon as these words came out, Lan Meng and Chang Qing also hesitated.
The letter did not explain what the mission was, nor did it say where to go. It just said: If Xiao Nuo agrees to go, just report to the 'Three Piaomiao Palaces' tomorrow morning...
Therefore, it is not possible to predict how long this task will take.
If he went away for two or three months at a time and did not return, it would really have an impact on Xiao Nuo.
After all, for a practitioner, half a year is not a long time.
"It depends on yourself!" Lou Qing said, and he handed the letter in his hand to Xiao Nuo: "You don't have to follow our suggestions, you can weigh it yourself."
"I understand." Xiao Nuo took the letter and nodded.
After a while.
Guan thought, Xiao Nuo left the meeting hall.
"Why don't you go?" Guan Xiang scratched his head: "I will take you to other secret cultivation realms tomorrow and try to improve your strength. The main thing is to deal with Liang Xingchen in half a year."
Xiao Nuo looked at the other person: "According to normal practice, do you think I can reach Liang Xingchen's strength within half a year?"
"This..." Guan Xiang was directly asked.
It took Liang Xingchen three or four years to go from being a new disciple to being one of the top ten strongest disciples in the inner sect today.
It would be extremely difficult for Xiao Nuo to contend with Liang Xingchen within half a year.
Seeing that Guan Xiang was silent, Xiao Nuo smiled and shook his head.
He then asked: "Will there be rewards for completing the tasks assigned by the sect?"
"Yes!" Guan Xiang nodded: "The higher the difficulty level of the task, the greater the reward."
After saying that, Guan Xiang raised his eyelids: "Do you think so?"
Xiao Nuo affirmed: "Although the treatment of second-grade disciples in Piaomiao Sect is okay, if there are additional resources, I should seize them."
In fact, Xiao Nuo had already made up his mind.
No sect will raise a group of idlers.
If you want to gain the attention of the sect and the attention of the higher-ups, then you should show the ability to be recognized by them.
Xiao Nuo knew from the beginning to the end that he now needed the protection of the Piaomiao Sect.
Until he has mastered the Overlord Body Divine Technique, and until he has the power to destroy everything, Xiao Nuo still needs to obtain cultivation resources from the Piaomiao Sect.
"I understand." Guan Xiang said nothing more immediately. Finally, he said: "Junior brother Xiao Nuo, I believe you have that ability. One day, you will become the hope of our Nirvana Palace!"
"..."
The next day.
Early morning hours.
Xiao Nuo arrived at the door of the Piaomiao Third Hall as promised.
This palace is built on a main peak of the Piaomiao Sect. It is located at an extremely high position and is breathtaking from any angle.
Xiao Nuo walked up the neat and clean steps and entered the temple under the instructions of the guard at the door.
As soon as he entered the hall, several pairs of eyes glanced over.
I saw four people already in the hall, and Xiao Nuo was the fifth person.
Among the four people, there are three men and one woman.
"Ha, look who's here..." The only young woman among the four chuckled, a light flashing in her eyes: "Isn't this the brave junior brother who even dares to charge Liang Xingchen?"
The woman walked towards Xiao Nuo with a bright smile. She had a beautiful appearance, light makeup, a long dress on the upper body, a short skirt on the lower body, and a pair of dazzling thighs that almost stuck into the eyes of several people.
"Hello, brave junior brother, my name is 'Mu Yue'er', and I am a second-grade disciple of Taihua Palace. You were also asked to work by the third elder, right?"
Looking at the beautiful hand stretched out by the other party, Xiao Nuo's first reaction was that this woman's negotiation ability was a bit strong.
"My name is Xiao Nuo!" Xiao Nuo replied simply.
"I knew it yesterday..." Mu Yue'er blinked at Xiao Nuo: "Yesterday, many of our senior sisters in Taihua Palace were talking about you! I didn't expect that you would also have to perform a mission together today. It seems that I am still lucky. good."
Compared with Mu Yue'er's liveliness, the other three seemed a lot more indifferent.
Moreover, one person looked at Xiao Nuo with a bit of hostility.
"Junior sister Yue'er, it's better to stay away from some people..." It was the hostile young man who spoke.
This man has a slender figure, good temperament, and a bit of nobility in his clothes, but his eyes are not friendly.
"Senior Brother Yun Zhou, don't say that. The five of us are going to the Holy Tree City in a while! We must get to know each other..."
Mu Yue'er didn't care, and motioned to Xiao Nuo to stand a little further: "Senior Brother Yun Zhou is joking with you, don't worry."
Xiao Nuo didn't change much in expression, just nodded.
The strength of these four people is not low.
The weakest ones have reached the third level of Qi Control Realm.
Mu Yue'er and Yun Zhou, who spoke just now, have both reached the fourth level of Qi Control Realm.
Xiao Nuo, a new disciple who had just entered the first level of Qi Control Realm, was obviously out of tune with them.
At this time...
There was a sound of footsteps coming from the inside of the hall.
Immediately afterwards, several figures with powerful auras came out. The leader was a thin old man. He was about fifty to sixty years old. His eyes were sharp and he exuded a powerful majesty.
"See the Third Elder!"
Mu Yue'er, Yun Zhou and other four people saluted one after another.
Xiao Nuo also clasped his fists: "I've met the elder!"
"No need to be polite!" The third elder's voice was actually quite gentle, which was in contrast to his fierce and serious appearance.
Mu Yue'er tilted her head and whispered to Xiao Nuo: "This must be your first time here. The third elder is actually just a fierce-looking person, but he is very kind."
"Cough..." The third elder pretended to cough, and Mu Yue'er quickly turned her head back.
"I won't beat around the bush with you. The place where the five of you are performing your mission this time is in Holy Tree City..." The third elder got straight to the point.
"Holy Tree City has a special geographical location. It is located to the northwest of our Piaomiao Sect. The existence of Holy Tree City is equivalent to a major checkpoint for our sect. If Holy Tree City exists, it is equivalent to an additional barrier for our sect. "
"Old Lord Yan of Holy Tree City has always had a friendly relationship with our Piaomiao Sect before, and even agreed to become an ally with our sect and share part of the management power with our Piaomiao Sect... But some time ago, there was news that Holy Tree City It seems he has changed his mind."
After hearing the general narration of the third elder, Mu Yue'er, Yun Zhou and others also looked a little more solemn.
Anyone who is familiar with the terrain of the Eastern Wasteland knows that Holy Tree City is very important to the Piaomiao Sect.
If Holy Tree City forms an alliance with other sect forces, the northwest direction of Piaomiao Sect will be exposed to the eyes of other forces.
If the opponent is a hostile force, the Piaomiao Sect will be on pins and needles for many years.
"What made Old City Lord Yan change his mind?" At this time, a young man with a temperament that was even better than Yun Zhou spoke.
The man was handsome and handsome, with narrow eyes. He was much calmer than the others.
This person's name is "Shi Mu", he is the genius of Guixu Hall, and he is also the highest among several people, having reached the fifth level of the Qi Control Realm...
The third elder glanced at Shi Mu approvingly.
After that, he replied: "According to the news, recently, the Tiangang Sword Sect sent people to the Holy Tree City..."
Tiangang Sword Sect?
After hearing the four words, the expressions of several people changed.
And Xiao Nuo's eyes also flashed with a flash of light. Are they going to meet Tiangang Sword Sect again so soon?
