Chapter 48: Sect Competition
On the way back to Lingxian Sect from Nanfeng Forest.
"Hmm?"
Zhang Yun sensed something and took out a sound transmission stone from his arms that was humming.
"From the great elder of Nanshan Sect?"
He checked the mark.
When collecting the spoils before, he marked the sound transmission stones of several elders of Nanshan Sect for easy identification.
But the point now is, why is this sound transmission stone ringing?
At this moment, the distance between him and Nanfeng Forest Square is already far more than five miles, even if someone contacts him, it shouldn't ring...
After a moment of hesitation, he opened the sound transmission stone.
Immediately, several voices were heard in succession;
"Great elder, what are you doing in the depths?"
"Great elder, why don't you return to our sect?"
"Great elder, have you discovered something?"
...
The voice is obviously from the leader of Nanshan Sect.
"Sure enough, they are chasing the experience token!"
Zhang Yun turned his head and looked towards the South Wind Forest, with a sneer on his lips.
Fortunately, he had taken precautions. Otherwise, if he really put the experience token of the Nanshan Sect's master and apprentice in the underground cave, it might be found by the other party. When the news spreads, it will be endless trouble for him.
Now it is placed in the depths of the South Wind Forest...
Thinking of the feeling that he was obviously being targeted when he left, Zhang Yun thought to himself, "Should I run into it?"
"It would be best if more people died!"
Thinking viciously.
The Nanshan Sect has now been listed as an enemy by him, and he hopes that the other party will perish as soon as possible.
"Is this sound transmission stone a special sound transmission stone?"
Looking at the sound transmission stone in his hand, Zhang Yun suddenly thought of something.
At present, he is at least hundreds of miles away from the depths of the South Wind Forest. This sound transmission stone can still transmit messages. The only thing he can think of is a special sound transmission stone.
"Does the Nanshan Sect have such a thing?"
Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows.
In his fusion of the memories of his predecessor, he knew that this was a product of the Central Region, and it was rare in the Southern Region.
"No wonder they notified the three elders to intercept me..."
Thinking of the interception by the three elders of Nanshan Sect before, Zhang Yun let out a sigh of relief. He was actually a little confused about this before, but now he understood it.
He also took out the sound transmission stones obtained from the three elders.
These three pieces are obviously also special sound transmission stones!
"Ming'er, Xiaopang, you will use these sound transmission stones in the future."
Zhang Yun immediately took out two pieces and handed them to Xu Ming and Wu Xiaopang behind him, saying: "This is a special sound transmission stone, and the sound transmission distance can reach 5,000 miles!"
"Five thousand miles?"
Xu Ming and Wu Xiaopang were surprised.
As far as they knew, the sound transmission stone was just a communication tool that could transmit five miles. Five thousand miles, this was the first time they heard of it.
"It's a pity that Taoist Huang has left..."
Zhang Yun let out a sigh of relief.
If Huang Laodao hadn't left, he could have given him a piece, which would have made it much easier to pass on information in the future.
Shaking his head, Zhang Yun didn't think any more and focused on flying his sword to catch up with the Lingxian Sect's leader and others in front of him.
Soon, everyone returned to the Lingxian Sect.
Each disciple was sent back to their respective peaks, and the elders followed the leader to the leader's peak.
In the hall.
"Are you satisfied with the results of this exchange meeting, elders?"
The Lingxian Sect's leader sat high on the main seat and glanced at the elders present.
The elders had different expressions.
Satisfied?
Although the overall results this time were better than those of the Nanshan Sect, the individual...
The elders all looked at Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun had a calm face.
"Except for the Ninth Elder, all of you have disappointed me too much!"
At this time, the Nanshan Sect's leader suddenly shouted.
The atmosphere in the entire hall was heavy.
All the elders bowed their heads, even the Great Elder of Lingxian Sect.
Although he got the fourth place, if it weren't for the replacement, his real result would only be the seventh. You know, the goal he set at the beginning was at least the top three. For this reason, the leader of Lingxian Sect gave him some tools to improve his combat power before the exchange meeting, but the result was...
"I didn't perform well this time, and I am willing to punish myself with three months' salary!"
The Great Elder of Lingxian Sect stood up and spoke in a deep voice.
"We are also willing to punish ourselves with three months' salary!"
Seeing this, the other elders stood up one after another, although they felt a little painful.
"Three months will be waived, and each elder will punish himself with one month's salary!"
The leader of Lingxian Sect spoke lightly, and his eyes suddenly looked at Zhang Yun: "There are punishments and rewards. This time, the Ninth Elder performed well. As a reward, the Ninth Elder can enter the treasure house and choose one treasure!"
Zhang Yun's eyes lit up when he heard this.
The Lingxian Sect's treasure house contained all kinds of rare treasures collected by the Lingxian Sect in the past 100 years since its establishment.
All the elders present looked at Zhang Yun with envy.
Not only did he get the Infant Transformation Pill, but he could also enter the treasure house...
The Lingxian Sect leader said, "In addition, the results of this exchange meeting will be included in the ranking of elders this year. The ninth elder, as the first in the exchange meeting, gets 50 points!"
Hearing this, the elders were silent.
The annual ranking of the elders of Lingxian Sect has a total score of 100 points. The annual disciple competition accounts for the majority, and can get a maximum of 50 points. And the daily activities of the disciples during the year can accumulate up to 50 points. The leader of Lingxian Sect gave it all at once, which clearly showed that he intended to let Zhang Yun's ranking rush up, so that he could be ranked in the top three after the disciple competition.
But no one said anything at this moment.
Based on the strength shown by Zhang Yun in the exchange meeting, even if the leader of Lingxian Sect directly announced the overturning of the previous dismissal proposal, everyone would not have any objection.
After all, the reason for the previous dismissal was that Zhang Yun regressed from the Jindan stage and his strength was not good. And now Zhang Yun's strength...
The elders looked at themselves and shook their heads.
"Two and a half months later, it will be the disciple competition..."
The leader of Lingxian Sect said, "At the same time, this year is also the year of the Nanyunzhou sect competition. Therefore, the disciples who enter the top 50 in this disciple competition will also be qualified to participate in the sect competition!"
The elders were cheered up.
Sect Competition!
This is an activity that has been passed down for nearly a hundred years in Nanyunzhou. It is held every three years and is jointly held by the thirty-six sects of Nanyunzhou. The main purpose is to compete for the quota to go to the Immortal Secret Realm.
The Immortal Secret Realm is an ancient secret realm that appeared in the Southern Region a hundred years ago. It is said to be passed down by the immortals. There are countless rare treasures and even immortal inheritance. It is opened every three years. There are special restrictions in the secret realm, which can accommodate a maximum of one hundred Jindan stage and five hundred lower realms at one time.
The six states in the Southern Region occupy a certain number of quotas according to the strength of each state.
Among the five hundred quotas for disciples below the Jindan stage, Nanyunzhou only got fifty.
There are too many monks and too little porridge, so the sect competition was held in Nanyunzhou, and the disciples of the thirty-six sects participated in the competition to compete for the fifty quotas.
For the Lingxian Sect, this is a major event that happens every three years.
Because as long as the disciples who enter the Immortal Secret Realm and come out alive will have great gains. For example, among the eighteen elders of Lingxian Sect, many of them broke through to the Golden Core Stage quickly after entering the Immortal Secret Realm.
Lingxian Sect Master said: "Take advantage of the last two months to prepare as much as possible!"
"Yes, Master!"
Everyone responded.
"Elder Nine, stay for a while, the others go!"
Lingxian Sect Master waved his hand, and the elders dispersed immediately.
Zhang Yun and Lingxian Sect Master were the only two people left in the hall.
"Master, I have something to report!"
Before Lingxian Sect Master could speak, Zhang Yun said it first.
"Huh?"
Lingxian Sect Master was startled and looked at him in confusion.
Zhang Yun immediately told the story of the previous attack by the Lin family, his guess, and the series of things that Meng Zhong had reported.
"The Lin family of Nanyun City?"
The leader of Lingxian Sect listened with a frown, and then frowned: "You said that the ten elders sent disciples to pass the news to the Lin family?"
"Yes, Sect Master. I forced this out of the Lin family elder!"
Zhang Yun nodded, and looked at the leader of Lingxian Sect in deep thought, his face calm.
He had planned to tell the leader of Lingxian Sect about the Lin family after he came out. After all, if the Lin family Yuanying stage came, he would have to rely on the leader of Lingxian Sect to block it.
In addition, he did not cause trouble to Meng Zhong immediately after he came out, also for the face of the leader of Lingxian Sect.
"This sect knows about this..."
After a long silence, the leader of Lingxian Sect said: "Don't worry too much about the Lin family. If they dare to come, this sect will deal with it. But in the next period of time, you'd better not leave the sect. In addition, the ten elders..."
"Sect Master, I can't let him go!"
Zhang Yun spoke calmly.
Regardless of whether Meng Zhong secretly poisoned him, this time he contacted the Lin family to attack him, which has touched his bottom line.
Even if it was an elder from the same sect, he would not let him go!
"..."
The leader of Lingxian Sect was silent for a while, sighed after a moment, and looked at Zhang Yun deeply: "If you want to take action, this sect can't stop you. This sect has only one request, not to take action in the sect!"
"Sect Master, I understand!"
Hearing this, Zhang Yun smiled.
What he wanted was this sentence from the leader of Lingxian Sect.
"Okay, go to the treasury and choose a treasure. This sect is tired and ready to rest!"
The leader of Lingxian Sect threw out a token casually, and was too lazy to say some of the words he wanted to say. He exhaled and lay down with his eyes closed.
"Thank you, Sect Master!"
Zhang Yun took the token and bowed and left the hall.
After he left, the lying Lingxian Sect leader suddenly opened his eyes and spoke as if to himself: "This kid, what do you think?"
"It's a bit strange! The golden elixir is obviously broken, but in a short time, it has a combat power that exceeds the original. It's not normal!"
In the shadow of the corner of the hall, the void suddenly twisted, and a figure in a transparent robe emerged.
The Lingxian Sect leader looked at the figure, "Is it possible that he is involved with those people?"
The figure was silent.
"Send someone to watch him, he
The leader of the Lingxian Sect said calmly: "Also, go check on the Lin family!"
"Yes!"
The figure responded, put on a transparent robe and disappeared.
The leader of the Lingxian Sect looked outside the sect gate, closed his eyes, and muttered to himself:
"It's a troubled time!"
