Chapter 1695: Rising Star

With a determined look, Xiao Mian came back to his senses...

At this time, there were more people on the top of Cheng'en Tower.

According to the information left by the various Tianzun, Xiao Mian found that these people were all cultivators from various places who came from afar. Some of them Xiao Mian knew, and some of them Xiao Mian didn't know.

After all, Xiao Mian had been away for a full sixty years!

Although the life span of cultivators is long, sixty years is enough for a new generation to replace the old.

The first to find Xiao Mian were Zhu Yanji and Bi Hunji.

Bai Guji fell in the great heavenly calamity, and Heishaji fell in the Hunyuan Daoism. The four saints who were once famous in the cultivation world of Xishuzhou, now only have these two left.

Xiao Mian didn't refuse and directly divided two points of Hunyuan Jinye.

Zhu Yanji was not polite. She swallowed the Hunyuan Jinye but didn't leave. Instead, she pointed behind herself. Xiao Mian looked behind Zhu Yanji.

Behind Zhu Yanji, there were four female cultivators, one of whom was covered with a veil.

"Little brother! You won't be partial to one over the other, right?"

"What are you talking about, elder sister? It's just these few..."

"These are the four new generation of holy maidens in the Netherworld Ghost Domain - Fenghuaxueyue!"

It was Bihunji, who explained it well.

Fenghuaxueyue, Yinfeng, Canhua, Hanxue, Lengyue.

These names sound good together, but when they are separated, they just feel piercingly cold.

Who let them be ghost cultivators?

Besides, the four new generation of holy maidens are all at the initial stage of Yuanying, which is much stronger than Zhu Yanji's generation back then.

Xiao Mian was not stingy and gave each of them a little Hunyuan Jinye.

The other three were fine, but only the masked Yinfeng made Xiao Mian take a second look, and suddenly his face changed drastically, and Xiao Mian grabbed Yinfeng's wrist.

"Ling'er! How could you..."

"..., you recognized the wrong person!" Yin Feng turned around and tried to leave, but Xiao Mian refused to let him go: "Either you take off your veil and let me see. If I made a mistake, I will apologize to you in person. But I will not make a mistake - Tuoba Ling!"

"Xiao Mian!"

"Sister! This is none of your business! This is between her and me!" As he spoke, Xiao Mian reached out to touch the veil in front of Yin Feng, and was about to take it off. Yin Feng sighed: "Brother Xiao! The past is over! Why do we have to meet?"

"..., Ling'er! What happened? Who did it?"

"Humph! Who else could it be? It was Ling'er's cousin, your former good brother - Tuoba Lan! He not only killed Ling'er, but also teamed up to kill Sister!"

"Tuo-Ba-Lan!"

After pausing for each word, Xiao Mian released Yin Feng's veil and her hand.

Seeing Yin Feng retreat behind Zhu Yanji, Xiao Mian took out a storage bag and gave it to Zhu Yanji, asking her to secretly give it to Yin Feng.

The past is over! Since it is over, why meet?

Did the saint of the Tuoba clan who once had affection for him really let go of everything in the past, or did she simply not want to embarrass himself?

If she could really let go, Xiao Mian would be happy to see it happen.

But - Tuoba Lan, you are so cruel!

After sending away the ghost monks, the Buddhist monks followed.

The Buddhist monks were led by Gui Hai, and the brothers reunited, and everything was self-evident.

Xiao Mian separated three points of Hunyuan Jinye and gave them to Gui Hai. When Gui Hai refined the three points of Hunyuan Jinye, Xiao Mian's eyes swept over the Buddhist monks.

The spiritual monk Benchu ​​was dead, and one of the three Buddhist beauties was missing. Fortunately, the little nun Miaoshan came later and kept pace with the fighting monk Huijing and the blind monk Chanyin.

After the two monks and one nun, the fox demon Zi Ning is the most beautiful.

These are old acquaintances, so Xiao Mian will not be stingy, not to mention that they were brought by Gui Hai, so there is a saying that if you don't look at the monk, you look at the Buddha.

After the ghost and Buddhist paths are dealt with, Xishuzhou is considered to be dealt with.

Next is Beiweizhou.

The leader, who ascended to heaven in one step, appeared in front of Xiao Mian.

Xiao Mian saw it and smiled dumbly.

"Brother Mo Yin! How are you?"

"Brother Xiao! You are the one who really is doing well!" Walking in front of Xiao Mian, looking at Xiao Mian, who is at the top of the Nascent Soul, Mo Yin, who is also at the top of the Nascent Soul, said with emotion: "I am really looking forward to it! All along, Yin has been waiting for Brother Xiao to catch up, but Brother Xiao has been taking his time. Now, I finally waited!"

As he spoke, Mo Yin's aura was strong and his fighting spirit was soaring.

At the top of Cheng'en Tower, the situation was tense.

Only Xiao Mian faced the impact of Mo Yin head-on without making a sound.

"Brother Moyin! It's not a good time to fight right now! Please give me a few days, I will fight you after I finish this period of work, how about it?"

"Okay!"

As soon as the words came out, Moyin's momentum was completely gone.

The next moment, Xiao Mian separated a stream of Hunyuan Jinye and sent it to Moyin. Moyin took it without any hesitation and separated some to Moyue who was traveling with him.

Motong died, and another person was missing.

Then it was Dongwuzhou, Ziyi Hou and Ye Piaoling came together.

After a distribution, both the host and the guest were happy.

These were just the cultivators from Xishuzhou, Beiweizhou and Dongwuzhou, as well as the demon cultivators from all over the world, who came to ask for the Hunyuan Jinye, and Xiao Mian would respond to any request.

Anyway, as he said: There are plenty of this stuff in my own land!

Looking at the heroes of the world gathered on the top of Chengen Tower, Xiao Mian had an idea.

"My fellow Taoists!" Xiao Mian spoke to everyone and revealed his thoughts: "It is rare that you fellow Taoists have come from afar to gather in Wanzong City of Nanyue. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I am not talented, but I want to make friends through martial arts!"

"Xiao Mian! How do you want to compete?"

It was the Demon Seal, impatient.

"Brother Moyin, please calm down! If we want to compete, we can't just talk about it! I want to copy the competition system of Tiandu Martial Arts Competition and hold a South Vietnam Sword Fighting Competition!"

When Xiao Mian said this, everyone on the top of Cheng'en Tower looked at each other in surprise.

Xiao Mian, are you going to play a big game?

The Tiandu Martial Arts Competition is a grand event in the cultivation world that takes place once every few hundred years. It is named Tiandu Martial Arts Competition because it is fully prepared and responsible by Tiandu City!

Now Xiao Mian wants to hold the South Vietnam Sword Fighting Competition, which clearly means that he wants to compete with him.

Looking at the cultivators on the top of Cheng'en Tower, except for Tiandu City and Dutian Peak, there are indeed many talents, which is not inferior to the Tiandu Martial Arts Competition back then.

"The competition will be held in three realms, and the top 100 will be selected for foundation building, and the top 10 for golden elixir. As for the Nascent Soul Realm, Xiao is waiting for you to fight - the prizes are generous!"

When Xiao Mian said this, everyone who was not interested in the competition suddenly became excited. This means that they can gain both fame and fortune!

Ordinary people are fine, but only peak cultivators like Mo Yin have a stronger fighting spirit and fighting spirit. He can finally have a fair fight with Xiao Mian!

Soon, the news of the Nanyue Sword Fighting Competition spread throughout Wanzong City.

Ren Tianzun was a little surprised when he heard it, but he had no opinion. The Nanyue Sword Fighting Competition was well organized and would surely make Nanyue's reputation rise to a higher level.

I just don't know whether that kid can control the situation!

The Sword Fighting Competition was arranged for a month later. After all, the cultivation world is vast and boundless, and there will always be cultivators who can't arrive in a short time.

Moreover, for cultivators, a month is fleeting.

During this month, Xiao Mian personally built a pyramid-shaped duplex fighting platform on the vast plain on the east side of Wanzong City.

The entire fighting platform is divided into nine levels, and there is only one fighting platform on the top level.

There are three arenas on the second floor, nine arenas on the third floor, and so on, all the way to the first floor.

The number of arenas on the ninth floor has reached 6,561!

The nine-layer arena, the lower three are used by foundation-building cultivators, the middle three are used by Jindan cultivators, and the upper three are used by Yuanying cultivators.

And so on, the number has increased dramatically, meeting the needs of all cultivators.

It's almost January, and Xiao Mian has completed his work.

Everyone looked at the pyramid-like arena, pointing and talking, thinking that it's okay for low-level cultivators, but high-level cultivators fighting, won't the arena have to be dismantled?

How could they know: Xiao Mian's big hand?

Don't think that Xiao Mian cuts those materials easily, ordinary Yuanying ancestors may not be able to destroy the materials that make up the arena with a full force attack.

All these materials were developed by Xiao Mian with the secret technique of Ksitigarbha. They are the best materials for building a city. They are hard and strong, and can be called indestructible.

Therefore, Xiao Mian jokingly called it - diamond!

One month has passed, and the sword fighting meeting has begun.

This sword fighting meeting copied the Tiandu martial arts meeting in all procedures. The cultivators were divided into three major realms to fight. Because there were so many people at the beginning, they had to conduct elimination matches.

Fortunately, there were enough arenas for fighting. After one fight, the winner stayed and the loser left.

There were as many as 200,000 cultivators from all parties participating in the foundation-building period. Most of them were local cultivators from Nanyuezhou, and there were also a few foreign cultivators.

More than 6,000 arenas were open at the same time, like a horse-drawn tour, like flowing clouds and water.

After eleven elimination matches, the list of the top 100 foundation-building period was decided.

So far, the competition system has changed from a brutal elimination match to a relatively peaceful round-robin match.

Hundreds of people were divided into half, two by two, and fifty round-robin matches were held at the same time. This process alone would not determine the rankings in a short time.

Fortunately, at the same time, the battle of the Jindan realm also began.

The number of cultivators participating in the Jindan battle dropped sharply to around 10,000.

After the same ten elimination rounds, only the top ten Jindan cultivators remained.

These ten Jindan cultivators are almost all rising stars from various forces.

Among them, there are Pu Mingyu, a disciple of Bai Qiye, Ling Ruohan, a rookie in Badao City, Yuanjue, a little monk in Buddhism, Ren Yimo, a Jindan cultivator in Huoyunling, Mo Mei, a female cultivator of Tianmo Palace, Li Xingyan, the son of Li Jingnian, the master of Zhenkong Dao, Jin William, a disciple of the Jin family of Tianlu Valley, Hua Qingcheng of the Qiqing Demon Palace, Yu Xueyan of Zhishan Sect, and Fu Lei, a casual cultivator from Xihai.

These ten Jindan cultivators competed against each other, neither of them giving in.

The excitement was even better than the Tiandu Martial Arts Conference that year.

A group of Yuanying ancestors stood on the highest level of the competition stage, watching the situation with a smile.

To be honest, the ten great Jindan who were fighting each other below were all disciples of these Yuanying ancestors on the stage. The Yuanying pointed and pointed, watching the success and failure of their disciples, and at the same time they could also be referees to judge the success and failure.

Ten Jindan fought two by two, divided into five games.

One of the games was Park Mingyu vs. Yu Xueyan.

Park Mingyu had cultivated to the peak of the sixth level, but because of the confinement of the demon bloodline, he had not been able to break through to the realm of the seventh level demon cultivator.

Unable to transform, he could only board the competition stage as a fish demon.

Looking at Yu Xueyan again, with her icy skin and beautiful face, she was indeed a person in a fairy painting. Even Xiao Mian had to praise her secretly when he saw her: beautiful!

This Yu Xueyan is said to be the contemporary goddess of Zhishan Sect, and she is indeed worthy of her reputation.

But a martial arts competition is different from a beauty pageant. Yu Xueyan is pretty, and she may have an advantage against other monks of the opposite sex, but it is useless against Park Mingyu.

In Park Mingyu's aesthetics, Yu Xueyan is not pretty at all!

To say that she is not pretty is a polite statement, she is simply ugly...

Therefore, Park Mingyu was not affected by Yu Xue's appearance at all, and he just pushed his "Drunk Life, Dreams and Death Sword Art" to the extreme.

One hand holds a sword, the other holds wine, a sip of spiritual wine, and a sword light.

Showing no mercy, Pu Mingyu pressed Yu Xueyan step by step, forcing her into danger. Yu Xueyan secretly hated her, but was helpless.

In the end, he had to take the initiative to surrender and retreat from the competition stage.

Before Pu Mingyu could be happy, several eyes on the five competition stages focused on Pu Mingyu, making Pu Mingyu feel horrified but inexplicable.

At the top, Master Bai Qi looked in his eyes and snorted secretly.

"It seems that this little lady from the Perfection Cult is quite popular, right?"

"Seventh Master! Don't tell me! If this girl is proficient in the magic of magic, it will be incredible! That is why Mingyu has a pure temperament, so he is not affected by her." Xiao Mian said to himself as he looked at the competition stage below. Said to himself: "Just watch! The other people will definitely suffer some losses at the hands of this woman! You guys might as well train her well when you go back!"

as expected!

In the next few battles, Yu Xueyan easily defeated Li Xingyan of Vacuum Dao, Ling Ruohan of Ba Daocheng, and Jin William of Tianlu Valley, winning three games in a row and winning three cities in a row.

Li Jingnian, Ye Piaoling and Xie Lingfeng looked a little worried.

The three of them disappeared, obviously going to teach the three disciples a lesson.

Looking at the field again, Yu Xueyan, after taking a break, faced off against Fu Lei, a casual cultivator from Xihai.

"Xihai Loose Cultivator? That's interesting!" Seeing Fu Lei, Xiao Mian asked the group of Nascent Soul Ancestors around him: "Does any of you know this kid?"

A circle of Nascent Soul Ancestors all shook their heads in denial.

Seeing this, Xiao Mian's inner suspicion became more and more certain.

It's just that her surname is fine, but what's the matter with her name Lei?

Xiao Mian was thinking this, and the battle between Yu Xueyan and Fu Lei had already begun.

Yu Xueyan used the "Supreme Good Heart Sutra" as her method and the "Bingxin Jade Jue" as her technique. The combination of magic and magic was even better than Yu Wushuang's back then.

A set of magical equipment is also among the best and should not be underestimated.

Otherwise, the three people before would not have been easily captured by Yu Xueyan.

Looking at Fu Lei again, his hands were empty and he had nothing to offer.

Yu Xueyan, however, did not dare to look down upon her at all. How could a person who could fight his way out of nearly ten thousand Jindan monks and reach the top ten be a loser?

With a scream, Yu Xueyan threw out the magic weapon in her hand - the Jade Snow Fan.

The jade and snow fan is a top-level magic weapon, as jade and snow, as natural as nature.

The jade-like Yu Xueyan held a jade-like jade snow fan, and with a slight fanning, a jade-like brilliance rose up. The brilliance spread throughout the competition stage, and Yu Xueyan's graceful figure disappeared in the brilliance. , there is only one Fu Lei left on the competition stage.

Fu Lei was not impatient, he stood there calmly.

Yu Xueyan's invisibility is extremely good, even Fu Lei can't see through it, but so what, unless Yu Xueyan voluntarily abandons the game, she must take action.

Once she takes action, the so-called invisibility will be self-defeating.

Fu Lei is confident that he will defeat Yu Xueyan before he defeats him!

At the same time, the other four competition stages are in full swing. Only in this competition stage, the jade snowy face disappears like snow, and the thunder is unmoving like a mountain.

It's been like this for a long time...

"Phew! These two people, are they trying to outlast each other?"

"That little lady is just shooting herself in the foot!" Master Bai Qi smiled calmly: "If she encounters an ordinary opponent, her move will indeed have miraculous effects, but she encountered such a soft-hearted opponent. Guy. If it continues like this, it doesn't matter to Fu Lei. Even if Yu Xueyan has the power of the magic weapon, she will still have to lose her true energy. If she doesn't find a way to break the situation as soon as possible, Yu Xueyan's defeat is certain!"

As soon as Bai Qiye finished speaking, something unexpected happened on the competition stage.

Pieces of snowflakes fell from the sky and landed on the competition stage without melting.

More and more snowflakes continued to fall, scattered throughout the competition stage, faintly arranged into a mysterious formation, trapping Fu Lei in the formation.

"Huh? Is this little lady preparing a formation?"

"If that's the case, she took the advantage and Fu Lei fell into the background."

"Not necessarily! As the saying goes, adapting to the ever-changing situation by remaining unchanged, judging from Fu Lei's appearance, he is not afraid of any tricks Yu Xueyan will play at all - let's see how she responds!"

All the Nascent Soul Ancestors saw it interestingly and started talking about it.

Only Xiao Mian's thoughts moved slightly, and the spiritual eyes between his eyebrows moved quietly. The invisible sight shrouded Fu Lei's body, and he saw a group of colorful purples and reds.

really!

But how could those two people get together?

Just when Xiao Mian was thinking this, Yu Xueyan quietly appeared.

Standing at the other end of the competition stage, Yu Xueyan panted slightly. Obviously, setting up this formation that trapped Fu Lei to death would take a lot of losses on Yu Xueyan.

The next moment, Yu Xueyan spoke.

"Sister Fu! Please surrender!" Yu Xueyan is not only beautiful, but also has an even more beautiful voice. As soon as she opens her mouth, she astonishes the entire audience. Fu Lei remains unmoved. Yu Xueyan says nicely: "Little sister, it's freezing cold here. It’s definitely not ordinary, even if Yuanying Ancestor is trapped in it, he can’t get out of it easily. If Sister Fu doesn’t believe it, you can try it! But breaking this formation is by no means ordinary. If Daoist Fellow Fu loses too much, it will not be good for him!”

Yu Xueyan seemed to be thinking about Fu Lei, but in fact she wanted to force Fu Lei to defeat.

Of course, Yu Xueyan's words are not unreasonable.

In a round-robin match like this - especially in consecutive round-robin matches, if you know you are losing or unable to win, it is also a necessary strategy to take the initiative to admit defeat.

Preserving your strength and grabbing points from others is the best strategy.

After a few attempts, it still failed, which would affect the subsequent competition process.

Yu Xueyan's words were not only heard by Fu Lei, but also by many Yuanying ancestors on the stage, and the hundreds of thousands of spectators watching were even clearer.

For a time, the reputation of Fairy Yu for being compassionate spread like wildfire.

Xiao Mian was indifferent when he heard it - he usually hated the fairy's tricks the most!

It seems that Yu Xueyan has inherited Yu Wushuang's legacy, but unfortunately, her tricks have no effect in front of Fu Lei.

On the contrary, Yu Xueyan herself set up the Heaven and Earth Frozen Formation, which caused great losses.

Just when everyone's eyes were focused on Fu Lei, Fu Lei moved.

Pointing to the sky with one hand and the ground with the other, Fu Lei shouted without saying a word.

The next moment, divine thunder fell from the sky, spiritual fire surged from the ground, thunder from the sky hooked the earth fire, and the earth fire burned the thunder from the sky, and the entire arena fell into a sea of ​​thunder and fire.

Fu Lei remained calm, and his beautiful face turned pale.

All the onlookers changed color, worried about their Fairy Jade.

Even the many Yuanyings on the stage changed their faces slightly when they saw this scene.

What a domineering Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Array!
