On the second day,
Xifeng, Hanjian Terrace.
The platform was huge, about a hundred feet long, with a large circular array in the center. The ground in the array was full of runes, and on the edge were nine monster beast statues with different looks, including tigers, green dragons, colorful phoenixes, and leopards. . . Lifelike and arrogant in all directions!
On the high platform next to it stood a large group of monks. The monks were arranged on both sides. On one side were the disciples of the Sword Sect all dressed in white, and on the other side were the challengers of various sects in different costumes. Among them were Elder Mo and Gu Yue from the nearby Tian Sect. Elder Meixi of the Pavilion.
The battle for the sword has always been hosted by the five disciples of Qianqiu Sect, Fen Tian. Although the five disciples are all in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, they are good at joint sword formations. The most glorious battle among them is when five people use the Burning Sky Sword Formation to defeat a Nascent Soul. The later monks were defeated in the battle, and then they became famous and were called the Five Burning Heaven Sons.
Normally, senior brother Bai Chi Jian is in charge. Since the retreat a few years ago, second senior brother Qing Lei Jian has been in charge.
Today, due to the appearance of the junior uncle and the two elders from the three major sects coming to watch the battle, the Qianqiu Sect Master also arrived at Hanjian Terrace.
"Uncle Master, this West Peak is the residence of Fairy Jinghong. Since she left, Master has sealed the entire West Peak. It was not until later that I heard that the Fairy created her own Zhanyou Pavilion that the ban was lifted and the West Peak was opened. But Fairy Jinghong’s elegant residence on the top of the mountain is still closed to this day.” Qing Lei Jian saw Liangchen staring at an eaves hidden in the clouds on the top of the mountain, and quickly introduced it.
"I see." Liangchen then remembered the Zhanyou Pavilion disciple who came to visit late that night, but only asked a few simple questions, and couldn't help but be full of curiosity about this Jinghong Sword Master.
"Why did the four great sword masters end up in such a situation? Either they will never meet each other again, or they will draw swords against each other!
If the four great sword masters work together and use their methods, the Sword Sect will not be the only one in Zhongzhou! "Liangchen looked at the people of Fa Sect not far away, and thought of the Sunset Sword Master who traveled around the world, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
While thinking about it, the light thunder sword beside him saluted the sect master and Liangchen: "Master Qi, young uncle, the time has come. Can the battle of the sword begin?"
"There is no need to ask for instructions on everything. As usual, you will make arrangements." Qianqiu Sect Leader nodded.
"Disciple, I obey." After saying that, he turned around and shouted to everyone: "The rules of today's sword invitation battle are as usual. There are five battles in total. In the first battle, Yi Chengzi, a disciple of Jintian Sect, will fight against Duan Mojian, a disciple of our sect!"
"Invite you two to fight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a young man in white robes and purple sword leaping into the formation.
On the other side, a figure suddenly disappeared from the crowd. The next moment, a man in green clothes was blurred out of the formation. The man had a handsome appearance, but there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes. He had a green jade hairpin slanted in his crown and held a thin stick in his hand. A crooked red stick like a finger.
Both of them are in the late stage of Jindan, but the aura of the disciple of the Jintian Sect seems to be better, and he must be someone who has been fighting for a long time.
As the two stood still, the nine people immediately walked out with a wave of the light thunder sword with one hand, each holding a goose egg-sized crystal. They walked to the statues of nine ferocious monsters and put the crystal into their mouths!
"Buzz" buzzed in waves, and nine blurry shadows that seemed to be magnified several times appeared on the field instantly. Several shadows shook their heads, swung their tails, opened their teeth, or danced their claws, accompanied by bursts of dragon roaring beasts. The roar resounds throughout the mountain stream!
However, after a few breaths, the phantoms of the nine beasts suddenly shrank, and they all returned to the statue.
At the same time, nine beams of light of various colors shot out from the statue's mouth, all striking the center. Thousands of spiritual lights scattered in all directions, and then were attracted by the runes on the ground. They suddenly turned into a huge colorful light curtain, covering the two of them.
"Yichengzi, come here to ask for Fengyu Sword, please give me some advice." The man holding the staff cupped his hands and said.
"Duan Mo Jian, please!" Duan Mo Jian returned the salute with his sword.
"Watch the move!" Yi Chengzi waved his hand with one hand and hit the red thin staff. A red light shield immediately popped up in front of him. At the same time, a fire light rose from the staff and instantly transformed into a running tiger. The tiger was two feet long. Full of arrogance, he rushed toward the Duan Mo Sword with his feet stepping on the flames!
This fire spirit transforming into a tiger is a test move commonly used by the Near Heaven Sect. Not only is it incredibly powerful, but it is also so powerful that no one dares to underestimate it.
As soon as Duan Mojian saw the opponent making a move, he waved the purple sword in his hand lightly, and a purple five-pointed shield as tall as a person appeared in front of him. The tiger slammed into the purple shield, and instantly exploded into flames that filled the sky. Gotta fly around.
But what is surprising is that the flame did not extinguish, but suddenly lit up, turning into red fire lotus and shooting away again from all directions!
The overwhelming fire lotus kept falling down, catching Mo Jian off guard. He quickly danced the purple sword in his hand to make it airtight, and heard a dense explosion of "crackling", and hundreds of fire lotus smashed on the sword curtain!
After the flames dissipated, although Duan Mojian was not injured, several small black spots appeared on the snow-white robe. Although there were not many, they were particularly dazzling on the white robe.
It seemed that with this first move, the Sword Sect disciples were at a disadvantage.
However, he probably didn't expect that this bright and upright Fire Spirit Tiger would later imply such a strange change, and he would suffer a hidden loss if he was not prepared.
Looking outside the field, Qianqiu Sect Leader Gu Jing was calm and Liangchen was smiling and silent. On the other side, Elder Mo of Jintian Sect looked proud.
On the other hand, Qing Lei Jian's face looked a little displeased. Although he had been presiding over the sword battle for some time and had long been pessimistic about the outcome, the sect leader and the young uncle were both present today, and he was at a disadvantage with this first move. It feels a bit disgraceful.
The next moment, Duan Mojian seemed to sense the scorching eyes from outside the field, and suddenly shouted: "Purple Chi Sword Formation!"
As he shouted loudly, his white robes swelled without any wind, and all the mana in his body moved rapidly and was poured into the purple sword in his hand. The purple sword absorbed the vast mana and came out directly. It instantly turned into a purple light and swayed up, like a ray of light. The purple dragon shot towards Yichengzi!
