Chapter 377: Walking into a Trap

Taoist Academy Competition, top five round.

The so-called top five are actually just four Taoist temples.

Because Qinghe Taoist Academy was the champion of the last Taoist Academy Competition.

As long as they can make it to the top five, they will automatically get a bye.

Just wait for the final winner among the top five and challenge them.

And once the challenger defeats them, he will become the final winner of this Taoist Academy competition.

Qinghe Daoyuan, which lost to the challenger, will compete with the instructor who lost in the previous round for the second and third place.

This is the entire process of the Taoist Academy Competition.

Therefore, the students of Qinghe Taoist Academy felt both relaxed and nervous during this period.

They feel relaxed because they don’t have any overly tight schedules.

You can carefully observe the opponents you may encounter in the future.

Plan ahead.

The tension is because all the teams participating in this Taoist Academy Competition have demonstrated strong strength.

It can be said that there are few weaklings who have made it to today's Taoist temple.

Today's match is a showdown between the Manhuang Taoist Academy and the Lihuo Taoist Academy.

The Savage Monastery is a physical monastery.

Its powerful strength is beyond doubt.

Its strength has always ranked among the top two among the four major academies.

It is often referred to as the Shanger Taoist Temple together with Qinghe Taoist Temple.

On the other hand, the Xuanshui Taoist Academy and the Lihuo Taoist Academy, which focus on talisman cultivation and alchemy, are jokingly called the Lower Two Taoist Academy.

This is not to say that Xuanshui Taoist Academy and Lihuo Taoist Academy are not strong.

But it is relative to the body monastery of Manhuang Taoist Temple and the sword monastery of Qinghe Taoist Temple.

Their students are indeed somewhat inferior in the practical stage.

But in this Taoist Academy competition, a completely different situation occurred.

Although Qinghe Taoist Academy and Manhuang Taoist Academy still performed strongly in this Taoist Academy competition.

Whether it is the body of the divine beast King Meow that is almost a throwback to its ancestors.

It is still Jiang Dongliu’s Hedao realm sword domain.

Both of them showed their terrifying strength.

But although the two of them are powerful, the performances of Xuanshui Taoist Academy and Lihuo Taoist Academy are also equally impressive.

In this Taoist competition, Shen Feiyang from Xuanshui Taoist Temple did not need to rely on summoning ghosts. He was able to defeat countless powerful enemies only by using talismans.

But he was very familiar with the use of talismans.

In a short period of time, he can draw many powerful magical talismans out of thin air.

This is undoubtedly the performance of a genius in talismans.

Lihuo Taoist Academy is the favorite in this Taoist Academy Competition.

Because the other three Taoist academies also only have one Jindan-level strongman.

But there are actually two Lihuo Taoist Temples.

Although in the current competition, Lu Chen, the strongest person in Lihuo Taoist Academy, has never taken action.

But Lihuo Taoist Academy still easily defeated the opponents in front.

This is because in addition to Lu Chen, there is a Phoenix Tribulation cultivator like Mu Xiaoye in their team.

Although in terms of cultivation, Mu Xiaoye is currently at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage, just like Xingjiu from Tianjiu Taoist Academy.

But Xing Jiu was able to rely on 'inviting gods' to temporarily break through the upper limit of his strength.

Just like reaching the Jindan stage.

Mu Xiaoye relied on his own terrifying innate magical powers, as well as the contracted monster from the mountains and seas, the three-legged golden crow.

It can also burst out strength comparable to the Jindan stage, or even exceed the general Jindan stage.

It just so happens that the Taoist Academy competition is basically held during the day.

Only the finals are held at night.

This also allowed Mu Xiaoye's strength to be brought into play to the maximum extent.

Therefore, up to now in the Taoist Academy competition, Lu Chen has hardly taken any action.

But Lihuo Taoist Academy never encountered any tough battles and won very easily.

This also brought the outside world's curiosity about Lihuo Taoist Temple to a peak.

After all, whether it is a rumor or the data publicly displayed by Lihuo Taoist Academy.

The strongest person in Lihuo Taoist Academy now is undoubtedly Lu Chen.

They were all very curious as to how Mu Xiaoye, the second-best person in Lihuo Taoist Academy, could be so powerful.

Then how powerful will Mu Xiaoye, the number one person in Lihuo Taoist Academy, be?

And today, this speculation may be verified.

Because in the eyes of many people, Lihuo Taoist Academy's opponent this time is extraordinary.

It is the Savage Taoist Temple, one of the four major Taoist temples.

And the main force of the Savage Taoist Temple is King Meow.

He is also the most accomplished physical practitioner in the Savage Taoist Temple in the past thousand years.

After all, King Meow is not only a spiritual beast, but also has a physical strength far beyond that of ordinary people.

His talent for cultivation is not inferior to the geniuses of the human race.

When the physical advantage of a spirit beast is coupled with its cultivation talent comparable to that of a human genius.

The fighting power unleashed by the combination of the two sides is naturally very astonishing.

However, the outside world is very optimistic about King Meow's strength.

But no one thinks that the Savage Taoist Temple can win the final victory.

After all, one Jindan stage is against two Jindan stage.

There is no possibility no matter how you look at it.

As the competition approached, the first floor dojo of the Great Wilderness Tower was already filled with people.

In the audience seats, both Qinghe Taoist Temple and Xuanshui Taoist Temple arrived one after another.

This shows the attention this competition has received.

However, in addition to higher popularity, there seem to be some other changes in this confrontation.

"Senior Jiang, do you feel that the Great Wilderness Tower today seems a little different from the past few days?"

A student from Qinghe Taoist Academy looked at the obviously extra monks in the Taoist temple.

He asked Jiang Dongliu curiously.

Jiang Dongliu had actually discovered this a long time ago.

If I have to describe it, the number of cultivators above the Jindan stage present now is almost twice as many as in the previous few days.

This is undoubtedly a very abnormal phenomenon.

But considering that this is the home ground of Savage Taoist Temple.

As a student of Qinghe Taoist Academy, I have no reason to interfere in what happens here.

There is no reason for them to tell me the reason.

Therefore, Jiang Dongliu did not delve too deeply into this aspect.

Facing his junior's question, Jiang Dongliu said calmly: "Nothing, maybe it's just that the people in the Savage Taoist Academy are very concerned about their students' competitions."

After hearing this answer, the student from Qinghe Taoist Academy did not ask any more questions.

Because Jiang Dongliu's answer is indeed quite realistic.

But what they didn't notice was that such changes were not only happening in the Great Wilderness Tower.

The same thing happened elsewhere.

Many cultivators outside Huangzhou have received the news recently.

On the way to Huangzhou.

However, only cultivators above the Jindan stage can receive the message.

As a result, this news did not spread within the Immortal Alliance.

Naturally, it didn't cause much commotion.

The reason for this can be traced back to what is happening now in the forbidden Ten Thousand Mountains.

But in order to prevent panic among the people in Huangzhou, and for other purposes.

The Immortal Alliance finally suppressed the news temporarily. Even Jiang Dongliu and other Immortal Alliance geniuses were not quite sure what was going on here.

Only a few people got the news.

Among them is Mu Xiaoye, the future young master who is highly valued by Wanye Xianmen.

In the lounge of Lihuo Taoist Temple.

"Xiao Lu, the sect and the academy asked me to give up this competition and leave Huangzhou as soon as possible after finishing the next match."

"Do you have any idea about this?"

Mu Xiaoye frowned and looked at the message on her phone.

Although she didn't know what exactly happened here.

But she instinctively felt that something must have happened.

Otherwise, there would be no reason for Wanye Xianmen and Lihuo Daoyuan to leave their group with the greatest hope of winning the championship alone and give up this competition.

This only shows that compared to this competition, Lihuo Taoist Academy and Wanye Immortal Sect value other things more.

What Mu Xiaoye could infer was that there might be some unexpected dangers in this competition.

The reason why she chose to ask Lu Chen.

One is to find out whether Lu Chen knows this news.

If you don't know, tell him in advance.

This can help Lu Chen avoid danger earlier.

The second is that I feel that this incident is extraordinary.

If Lu Chen were told this, given the calmness he has always shown.

Maybe we can guess what happened.

And Mu Xiaoye undoubtedly made the right bet.

Because Lu Chen not only knew about this matter, he was even a participant in it.

In response to Mu Xiaoye's question, Lu Chen waved his hand and scattered a few talismans.

These talismans fell on the wall and sank directly into the wall, disappearing.

Soon, the room they were in was sealed by a barrier.

Cultivators below the Spirit Transformation Stage have no idea what is happening here.

And seeing Lu Chen do all this.

Mu Xiaoye understood that Lu Chen must want to say something to her.

He immediately pretended to listen attentively.

"What the Immortal Sect and the Taoist Academy mean is actually what I mean."

"It is indeed better to withdraw from this Taoist Academy Competition as soon as possible. If we continue, accidents may easily occur."

"Is that so?"

Mu Xiaoye looked a little disappointed.

After all, in her opinion, Lihuo Daoyuan had almost secured the championship in this competition.

Outsiders may not be aware of Lu Chen's strength.

But Mu Xiaoye could sense it clearly.

The outside world's speculation about Lu Chen was not exaggerated at all.

Some even exaggerate it.

Lu Chen's true strength is far beyond the outside world's speculation.

Seeing Mu Xiaoye like this, Lu Chen selectively said what he could.

"Xiao Ye Zi, this time some people decided to use the Taoist Academy Competition to take the opportunity to do something in the Great Wilderness Tower."

"Although we don't know exactly what they are going to do, we can speculate based on some recent events."

"Based on the information we have so far, the Great Desolation Tower may become the venue for a decisive battle between the enemy and us."

"Although the other party knows that we may have received some clues, they don't know what their specific plans are."

"In this case, the other party should still choose to take action."

"And these are all facts. After all, we really don't know what the other party's goal is, so it's difficult to make targeted plans."

"But one thing we are very clear about is that the other party's target this time is most likely in the Great Desolate Tower."

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the news was deliberately suppressed to guide the other party to take action."

"After all, we still have too little information right now. If we can take advantage of this opportunity to capture more of the other side, we may be able to obtain more information."

"And in this plan, the Jindan stage can only barely protect itself. Having one more Jindan stage person doesn't mean much to us."

Mu Xiaoye looked at Lu Chen in surprise, and then said, "So, you actually suggested that the Immortal Sect and the Academy let me leave first?"

Lu Chen was not surprised that Mu Xiaoye could guess this.

Besides, Lu Chen really hadn't thought about hiding this fact.

Looking at Mu Xiaoye who was surprised, Lu Chen immediately showed his cultivation level.

The cultivation level at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage coupled with the sword power at the immortal level.

In Mu Xiaoye's eyes, Lu Chen at this moment was like a towering mountain, and she could not even think of resisting.

However, Lu Chen displayed his skills only to demonstrate his current strength.

So this pressure came quickly and went away quickly.

"If you stay, you won't have much impact on the overall situation."

"Besides you, we are actually planning to inform some other people."

"But in order to prevent the enemy from knowing this in advance, we will inform them after the next game."

"In this way, we can paralyze the enemy to the greatest extent."

After hearing this, Mu Xiaoye was not too stubborn.

Although she felt that with her own strength.

If I could stay, it would not change the overall situation.

But it shouldn't be a hindrance.

But what Mu Xiaoye didn't know was.

After discussing with Xiao, Lu Chen has always believed that in this plan, even a Jindan stage cultivator would find it difficult to protect himself.

What's more, Mu Xiaoye is a student who can only burst out the strength of the Golden Core Stage under specific conditions.

As for why he only told Mu Xiaoye and didn’t choose to tell others.

This is Lu Chen’s selfish motive.

Because he couldn't trust other people.

After all, once Daqianshan gets the news in advance.

That will undoubtedly create more variables.

You have to know that their biggest advantages now are only two points.

First, because of the incident in the underground prison in the Great Wilderness Tower, they knew that the enemy's target should be someone imprisoned in the Great Wilderness Tower.

Another thing is that they knew that the enemy was from Daqianshan.

Don't think that this is all you know.

You know, if it weren't for Lu Chen, the Immortal Alliance wouldn't even know who the enemy was or how to target them.

The reason why Lu Chen knew that the enemy this time was Daqianshan.

This was also thanks to the four monsters from Biyou Mountain that he had met before.

The four demons once told him that the force that Biyou Mountain was most at odds with was the Thousand Feathers Sect in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

And when they first came to the Great Wilderness Tower to watch the game, they unexpectedly sensed a lot of the aura of the Thousand Feather Sect.

This means that people from the Qianyu Sect have also come to the Great Wilderness Tower.

After knowing this, Lu Chen judged this to be the so-called Qianyu Sect.

It is the Daqian Mountain that I know.

It's just a change of name.

And coming to Dahuang Tower from Daqian Mountain is definitely not for sightseeing.

Combined with what I learned from Xiao, what happened in the underground prison of the Great Wilderness Tower.

Lu Chen was certain that their enemy this time was Daqianshan.

That’s how we came up with this plan to lure the enemy into a trap and take advantage of the enemy’s strategy…
