In front of the Xu Valley.
Zhang Mu knelt in front of the prison lord, with a look of shame on his face and said with great sadness: "Prison Master, my son was bewitched by others. Zhang Mu did not teach his son well. He disturbed the immortal and deserved death!"
"Do you know who Zhang Yang has had more contact with recently?" The prison master stood with his hands behind his hands, his face frosty and his voice low.
"I don't know!" Zhang Mu said in shame.
"In this case, there is no proof of death." The prison master said.
"well……"
Zhang Mu sighed deeply.
"Please step down. You will still be in charge of the Immortal Sword Ranking." The prison master said.
"yes."
Zhang Mu stood up and glanced at the prison master guiltily. His expression was desolate, as if he had aged a few years.
After he left, the prison lord turned around and asked Mu Dalong: "After Zhang Mu lost his wife, has he treated you well in recent years?"
"Answer truthfully?" Mu Dalong asked.
"certainly."
"He had feelings of admiration, but I refused. The impact was not good." Mu Dalong pursed his lips, "And he always feels too complicated inside, and I don't like him very much."
"Yes." The prison master nodded.
"Dad, do you think something is wrong with him?" Mu Dalong asked carefully.
"It doesn't matter." The prison master looked back at the Xu Valley with a deep look and said: "The twin sword-banished immortals in the sword market, the cows, ghosts and snake gods are eager to come out to compete for beauty, but the final result is in the hands of the two sword-banished immortals. The winner will be determined. At the end of the day, everyone needs to bear the consequences of their own choices.”
"We can too, right?" Mu Dalong asked quietly.
The prison master smiled and said nothing.
…
Banished to the Immortal Palace.
boom!
The sky above the black palace was covered with purple-black sword clouds, and the surrounding space was shaking, which revealed the secret of the birth and death of the world.
There was a loud sound, and the gate of the Immortal Palace opened!
A young man wearing a purple and black robe stepped out!
His body was rolling with sword energy, and the space around him was distorted. Space sword energy surrounded him. As he walked, even the bluestone slabs on the ground were automatically cracking and torn into powder by the force of space.
"Congratulations to Immortal Ling for your great achievement!"
Ku Xuan and Fengyun Shuang, the three Sword Market ancestors, bowed deeply, their eyes full of admiration and admiration.
"Ling Ban Immortal, how many levels did you break in one day?" Ku Xuan's narrow eyes were filled with light.
"What do you think?" Ling Chen loosened his muscles and bones, and his body made a snapping sound.
"How can ordinary mortals like us dare to ignore the creation of a true immortal?" Ku Xuan chuckled.
Ling Chen also smiled, and then said: "I have to say that the 'Zhenyuan Pill' you gave me is really effective. If I can get some more, I can speed up the cultivation of the eight mortal realms and save a lot of trouble."
"You want some more?" Ku Xuan lowered his head and said, "Zhen Yuan Pill is a 'star level' pill. All the previous stocks in the Sword Market have been dedicated to you, Ling Ban Xian."
"Really? Yun Banxian didn't get some from there?" Ling Chen asked lightly.
"We can strike faster than the prison master." Ku Xuan said with a smile.
"Oh? I'm afraid Yun Banxian will be unhappy."
The corner of Ling Chen's mouth raised slightly, with a hint of joking, as if he had a delicate toy, and the road ahead suddenly seemed more challenging.
When everyone heard this, they also smiled.
After laughing, Ku Xuan suddenly said: "Ling Ban Xian, our number one alchemist in the Eternal Sword Prison, Du Zhongyuan, can refine the Zhen Yuan Pill. I will ask him to hurry up and try to send out new ones during the Immortal Sword Ranking period." Here comes the Zhenyuan Pill."
"Du Zhongyuan, is he one of yours?" Ling Banxian asked.
"This man is withdrawn, not good at socializing, and has an eccentric temperament. Therefore, he clearly has the strength of the ancestor of Jianxu, but he still holds the position of Supreme Elder and is not one of our people. However, I have a granddaughter who is his disciple and learns alchemy from him. Technique." Ku Xuan said.
"Go." Ling Chen said.
"Yes!" Ku Xuan looked at Fengyun Shuang and the others and said, "The ranking of the Immortal Sword List will begin soon. You three will send Ling to be banished to the Immortal."
"Lingbanxian, please!"
Fengyunshuang and the other three nodded.
Ling Chen hummed and walked up to Bai Wuque!
"Lingbanxian..." Bai Wuque bowed his head deeply.
Ling Chen reached out and patted his face, and said happily: "Sword slave, please open your eyes wide and slowly appreciate what karma is."
…
Too high!
This is the most majestic sword-shaped peak in Jianxu, just before Xuxu Valley.
This peak holds a huge sword in the sky and is majestic. It is the core inheritance place of the Sword Ruins and one of the places with the richest fairy spirit.
All the elders of Jianxu will preach and practice here!
Those who can reach Taishang Peak are all Taishang disciples. This is already the highest level among the sixth-level disciples of Jianxu. They are definitely swordsman geniuses above the clouds.
At present, the supreme disciples of Jianxu are basically the descendants of high-ranking officials in Jianxu. Among them, the lowest Bai Wuque has a peak master-level grandfather in his family.
At the top of Taishang Peak, there is a 'Danyuan Pavilion'!
This is the residence of Du Zhongyuan, the number one alchemist of the Eternal Sword Prison, and the place where he preaches.
This day was the day of the Immortal Sword Ranking. Du Zhongyuan had a total of five supreme disciples, and they all got up early to practice alchemy. Du Zhongyuan had been guiding them carefully and meticulously for ten years.
Sword Ruins is a place of inheritance. Generally speaking, only when you become an ancestor do you not need to recruit disciples to teach.
And this Du Zhongyuan is actually very young, a middle-aged man, a little skinny, with long beard and hair, poorly dressed, and looks very quiet.
"Let's go here today to participate in the Immortal Sword Ranking." Du Zhongyuan stood up and said.
"Thank you Master!"
The five Supreme Disciples are all high-ranking disciples of Jianxu. They are well-dressed, good-looking, and extremely heroic. Their family background is clearly displayed in the confidence in their faces.
They stood up and prepared to leave.
At this moment, Du Zhongyuan suddenly said: "In recent days, there have been a lot of rumors about Yun's banishment of the Immortal and the Monster Sword Soul. This matter is very deep. Don't get involved, so as not to cause trouble."
"Master, what do you mean?" Among the five disciples, there was a girl in blue. She was pretty, young, and her eyes were slightly gloomy.
"Since ancient times, the upper limit of the Demonic Sword Spirit has been the Tianquan level. Some people are secretly promoting the anti-intellectual trend and deliberately smearing Yun and banishing immortals. My disciples are not allowed to participate." Du Zhongyuan said after hearing this.
Regardless of their origins, as long as they study with Du Zhongyuan, he will be responsible.
In Jianxu, the master-disciple relationship is as sacred as the family relationship.
After hearing Du Zhongyuan's words, the four older disciples on the left and right lowered their heads with strange expressions on their faces.
But the girl in blue in the middle raised her head and looked at Du Zhongyuan with burning eyes: "Master, Ku Xue has always respected you very much, and what you said today is the only thing I disagree with."
"Oh?" Du Zhongyuan looked at her calmly.
"Master, is someone forcing you to banish Baiyun to immortality? If so, just blink." Ku Xue asked.
Du Zhongyuan shook his head when he heard this.
The young people were all filled with righteous indignation and thought they were smart, only to be treated like dogs.
"Go ahead."
Du Zhongyuan waved his hand, not wanting to say more, turned around and escaped into the darkness.
The five supreme disciples pursed their lips, turned around and walked back.
On the way, Ku Xue suddenly sneered: "This old dog Du Zhongyuan didn't know how much money he received from Yun Banxian, and he even dared to say these words."
"The world is in trouble, alas."
"It is ordinary disciples who are suffering."
"In this world, if you tell the truth, you have to be banned. It's too dark."
They shook their heads, their eyes filled with anxiety about the future of Sword Ruins, their hot hearts filled with deep love for this place where swordsmanship was inherited, and deep sympathy for the low-level sword cultivators.
But this does not prevent them from being led by the nose.
Ku Xue was very satisfied with her 'brainwashing' of the four senior brothers and sisters.
She looked very rational and said: "One thing to say, even in terms of character, the fake immortal is far behind the real immortal. Don't argue, you are right."
"Junior Sister Kuxue, no matter what, the fakes will show up in this Immortal Sword Ranking."
Five swords rose into the air and flew to the sky!
At the same time, hundreds of thousands of swordsmen flew across the sky, rising from all directions in the Sword Ruins, all going to the same place!
That is, the Immortal Sword List!
…
Buzz!
Yun Xiao set out from Xugu, and under the personal escort of Mu Dalong, he also headed towards the Immortal Sword List.
Mu Xiaolong was also a participant in the war, so he naturally accompanied him all the way.
She was clearly in the realm of Emperor Release, but she had to say that she was too slow in wielding a sword and wanted to match her immortal brother's sword.
Not only do you have to ride, you also have to stand in front!
This little thought is all written on his face.
She was charming, charming, and cute, so Yun Xiao just let her go.
If he was ugly and acted coquettishly, Yun Xiao would have kicked him away.
"So fast! So fast!"
"I can't stand firm!"
"Brother Immortal, hug me quickly..."
The little girl was fussing around in his arms, and Yun Xiao could only hold her with one hand, wielding his sword in the air with a graceful posture.
"Xiaotaki, do you really like me?" Yun Xiao asked in her ear, but his eyes were looking far ahead.
"Who in the world can't help loving immortals? In Xiaotaki's dreams, they are all immortal brothers." She was a bold girl. She didn't hide it from the beginning and expressed her love clearly.
This is actually an interesting true temperament.
"Do you want to walk the path of immortality with me?" Yun Xiao asked.
"Of course I want to, but... I feel like it can't be realized." Mu Xiaolong lowered his head slightly, with some hesitation in his eyes.
"There really is nothing I can do. Maybe it's because I like to walk alone and not be bound by worldly fate." Yun Xiao said.
"Then have you ever had someone you liked?" Mu Xiaolong asked nervously.
"There are too many!" Yun Xiao smiled happily, "There is a girl, I want to take her with me, but she likes peace and does not want to wander with me. There is also a girl, I also want to go all the way with her, It's a pity that God didn't fulfill her wish and she turned into a stone..."
"Huh? Those words of yours sound so scumbag." Mu Xiaolong was speechless, and then added: "But, I still like it very much."
"So, leave all matters of fate to fate." Yun Xiao said.
"No matter how vicissitudes of life come, I will always be the pretty brother of the immortal brother...ahem."
Mu Xiaolong felt better after learning that Yun Xiao wanted Jinquan wine instead of her mother.
"You are still young. When you grow up, you will know that appearance is not important to a person." Yun Xiao said.
"Then will you marry someone who is not good-looking?" Mu Xiaolong asked with eyes wide open.
"...No." Yun Xiao said awkwardly.
"Isn't that what it is? You are only two years older than me and you are pretending to be old-fashioned, huh." With a look of contempt on his face, Mu Xiaolong quietly moved towards Yun Xiao's arms and whispered: "Are you in the golden elixir pool?" Do you see clearly? You have good genetics, so you are not young!"
Yun Xiao: "..."
Looking around in silence, the Immortal Sword Ranking in front is like a sword peak, towering into the clouds!
"Xiaotaki, what are the rules for ranking?" Yun Xiao asked.
"Just a fight." Mu Xiaolong was willing to talk to him. No matter what he said, she was always in high spirits.
"how to spell?"
"It's very simple, an elimination battle from beginning to end." Mu Xiaolong said.
"What exactly?"
"Didn't you pre-register before? Then the elders will select 4,096 people from all the applicants. In this way, twelve pairs of matches will be conducted to determine the final number one on the Immortal Sword Ranking! The elders will then vote based on their performance. List the top 100 immortal swords." Mu Xiaolong said.
"That's pretty simple. In short, it's over after twelve games with random opponents." Yun Xiao likes this format, which is simpler and rougher than the First Immortal Battle in Heaven.
"It's not random. In order to prevent the seed players from running into each other too early, the entire battle sequence has pre-arranged the disciples into sixteen positions. In each interval, there are junior sword cultivators of various levels. For example, I , because he is still young, he is temporarily classified as the seventh level." Mu Xiaolong explained.
When Yun Xiao participates in any competition, he never cares about anything other than first place.
Therefore, whether it is random or interval-based is meaningless to him.
He just needs to remember that winning twelve games in a row is all he needs to do!
"What rank am I in?" Yun Xiao asked casually.
"The order of the battle on the Immortal Sword Ranking this time is different from the past. There are only two people listed in the first rank." Mu Xiaolong said with a smile.
Yun Xiao understood.
Even though he and Ling Chen were not at a high level, they still had a transcendent status and were directly listed as the only two in the first tier!
"Does it mean that there is only one possibility for me to meet him?" Yun Xiao asked.
"Yes, in the decisive battle! Before that, if any one of you falls behind, there will be no duel between swords and immortals. That would be quite embarrassing!" Mu Xiaolong curled his lips.
"Um!"
The audience likes to watch the showdown between powerful players, so this arrangement is a bit interesting.
In order to meet each other, both of them have to pass the test and have the last laugh in their own half!
"The Eternal Sword is just a test of talent! The Immortal Sword List is the time to test the true combat talent!" Mu Xiaolong said.
If we lose today, we will really be outmatched.
The status of Sword Banished Immortal brings not only treasures and resources, but also terrifying mental pressure!
Coupled with the smear campaign, only Mu Dalong and the others knew how much pressure Yun Xiao was under at the moment.
However, what calmed their mother and daughter was that up to this moment, Yun Xiao was still calm and indifferent, as if he was an outsider.
He also asked casually: "There are a total of twelve elimination battles. From more than 4,000 people to just one person, how long did they last?"
"One day, a total of twelve hours, each hour is a round of fighting. Within a single hour, whoever resolves the battle earlier will have a longer rest." Mu Dalong replied from the side.
"Okay, then you can choose a quiet place for me to rest. I will practice after every game." Yun Xiao said.
"Brother Immortal, why are you so anxious at this moment? Why not relax during the break and let Xiaolong give you a squeeze on your shoulders?" Mu Xiaolong asked with a pout.
"In a minute and a half?"
Yun Xiao smiled and said nothing.
After digesting it overnight, the ten thousand immortal jade eaten by Chi Yue is almost ready to be released!
One hour in a round, for Mu Xiaolong, it is only a moment and a half, but for Yun Xiao, that is too long!
Speaking of which, the Immortal Sword List, which was full of people and overwhelming waves of anger, has finally arrived!
Looking around, there are already hundreds of thousands of people wielding swords across the sky!
Just watch the battle from heaven!
And there will be more and more people coming.
Those without seats are either ordinary sword sects or ordinary disciples.
Yun Xiao looked around and saw a golden sky pillar in front of him. It was shining in the sunlight. Last year's Immortal Sword List on it had been removed, and a new glory was waiting for it!
Under the golden sky pillar, there are more than two thousand golden battle platforms. Each battle platform is protected by a magic circle and is also stationed by a special sword sect.
Some powerful duels may be specially guarded by the peak masters and supreme elders.
"This place is ten times bigger than the No. 1 Immortal Battle in Heaven!"
As soon as I came here, the atmosphere of chilling, sharp, and wild sword fighting came over me.
Hundreds of thousands of sword cultivators looked deeply, their sword auras flying in their eyes, and their hearts filled with excitement.
Many sword cultivators participating in the war have arrived and are receiving serial number plates from Zhang Mu to determine their participating areas!
The atmosphere is chilly!
"The Immortal Yun has arrived..."
Suddenly someone said something, and the fiery atmosphere under the Immortal Sword Ranking suddenly became cold and gloomy.
It was as if there was a big dark hand covering the top of everyone's head, making people feel depressed and their faces became sullen and gloomy.
"Good guy, am I the villain here?"
Yun Xiao caught countless mixed looks at a glance, and was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry.
