Please show your spirit to our ancestors

Chapter 249: Chen's Prodigy! Emerging

……

And at this time.

Next to the mysterious boss, an old voice also sounded: "Sect Master, the time has come. Please say a few words."

The mysterious boss came back to his senses and turned his attention away from the colorful cart in the hands of the little girl named Gongsun Keming and the bustling spinach stall in the corner. His eyes suddenly became solemn.

A majestic, solemn, and unfathomable aura emanated from him, and overwhelming pressure instantly enveloped the entire audience.

All of a sudden.

Everyone seemed to feel their bodies sink as they felt the pressure that was as overwhelming as a mountain and as deep as an ocean.

The scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Even the representatives of Nascent Soul cultivators from various countries bowed their heads to show respect.

"ah?"

Gongsun Keming, who was selling snacks and spinach tickets, froze and found himself standing out from the crowd. He quickly squatted down and hid behind the cart, not daring to even breathe.

undoubtedly.

The big man who was emitting an aura on the high platform was none other than the current leader of Taixuan Sect—Taixu Zhenjun, one of the most powerful and rare people in the world, a great man in the God Transformation Stage who could stand on equal footing with Tianyuan Saint Emperor.

However, as a powerful person who had participated in the 23rd Taixuan Heroes Conference, he had only a general feeling about this session. Among so many participants under the stage, not only were there no natural spiritual roots, there were not even any with double spiritual roots or special spiritual roots.

Except for a few daring youngsters who were making trouble, it was a really mediocre class.

The great genius with dual spiritual roots who is high and mighty in the eyes of ordinary people is just like that in the eyes of True Lord Taixu. I don’t know how many such people he has seen in his life.

He really didn't have much to say about this. Seeing that everyone had quieted down, he spoke, his voice majestic but with a hint of coldness: "I declare that the 289th Taixuan Heroes Meeting of the Taixuan Sect has begun. I hope that everyone can show their true selves and work hard for the rise of the human race."

Then, and then it was gone.

That's it?

The scene grew increasingly quiet.

The atmosphere is slightly weird.

On the other hand, the deputy sect master who was actually in charge of the daily affairs of Taixuan Sect, True Man Yunhai, had long been accustomed to the increasingly indifferent attitude of his own sect master, and calmly said, "The auspicious time has arrived. Please invite the first batch of geniuses to enter the trial tower."

As soon as the words fell, rays of light fog gathered from all directions and condensed into a huge curtain of light above the square.

On the light screen, the names of geniuses and the forces they belonged to appeared.

The leader's name is Xiong Yingkui, and he belongs to the Wanhe Sect of Liang State. After him, there are densely packed names and information of at least eighty or ninety others. The worst among them have four spiritual roots or mutated spiritual roots, and most of them have three spiritual roots.

In this place where all the heroes of the world gather, three spiritual roots are indeed not enough, not to mention four spiritual roots or mutated spiritual roots.

The young geniuses who were called out came out one after another, holding the identity cards they received when they signed up, and went to the front to register. Then, filled with excitement, they lined up and walked towards the circles of light projected in front of the square.

The next moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the light around them distorted and their figures disappeared in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the light curtain in the sky suddenly disassembled and dispersed, turning into a large light curtain and densely packed small light curtains.

The geniuses who had just disappeared appeared in those light curtains.

They were standing on a huge black square, surrounded by mist. Not far away was a huge bronze tower that soared into the clouds.

At this moment, they were looking around at the situation around them. Some of them were at a loss, some were extremely excited, and some were frightened.

That’s right, this is the Trial Tower of Taixuan Sect.

It is said that the trial tower of Taixuan Sect was inherited from the Tianyuan Secret Realm and can accommodate hundreds of geniuses to participate in the trial at the same time.

Its principle itself is very mysterious and has not been cracked so far. Even the Taixuan Sect only knows how to use it.

Its main body is now placed in the Taixuan Palace, but no one knows its exact location. Every time a trial participant enters and exits, they use the teleportation halo.

As for the specific rules of the trial, Taixuan Sect did not elaborate too much. After all, the trial rules have not changed over the years. The trial participants from various countries have their own leaders who have already popularized the rules, relevant precautions during the trial, and the various benefits therein.

In the cloud curtain, there was also a figure of a member of the Chen family, that was Chen Xiuyang who was looking around with a curious look on his face!
During these few months, Chen Xiuyang was busy with his second business venture and basically did not fight with anyone. It was Jiang Guangzhi who handled all external affairs, so his reputation was not very prominent.

As an ordinary person with four spiritual roots but a mutation of the wind spiritual root, no one could find fault with him if he called himself a genius in a small place. But in this place where so many geniuses gathered, basically no one would even look at him twice.

Many people's attention is focused on the great genius with double spiritual roots, Xiong Yingkui, or those famous geniuses with three spiritual roots.

Therefore, apart from relatives and friends, almost no one glanced at the light curtain where Chen Xiuyang appeared.

Chen Xiuyang looked up at the tall and majestic tower with its tip rising into the clouds, with an expression of emotion.

At the same time, he recalled Master Hong Fu's introduction to the Trial Tower.

The space they are in now is not a real secret space, but an illusory space. Their bodies are not real bodies, but projections condensed for them by the Trial Tower.

Next, they will enter the trial tower in the form of projections to undergo trials, and even if they die, it will not have any impact.

Their trial results will be judged comprehensively based on their age, cultivation level, number of levels they have passed, and their performance during the process. This involves a very complex calculation method.

The final calculated points represent the potential of the trial-taker, and the higher the points, the greater the potential.

Theoretically speaking, the more the strength of the opponent in the final level exceeds your own level, and the longer you can hold out against the opponent, the higher the final score will be.

After the trial results of all the trial participants are released, the Trial Tower will rank everyone according to the points they have obtained. This ranking will be the final ranking of this year's Taixuan Heroes Conference.

After recalling the past, Chen Xiuyang had an idea in his mind, so he did not hesitate and went straight into the tower to start the trial.

The difficulty of the levels in the Trial Tower increases gradually. The higher the level, the more difficult the trial.

There is basically nothing much to say about the first, second, and up to the ninth level. These are levels that many Qi Refining cultivators can pass, so it was natural for Chen Xiuyang to pass them without any effort.

But at the tenth level, the gatekeeper turned into a third-order demon, whose power was comparable to that of a cultivator at the first level of the foundation-building stage.

Of course, this is not a problem for Chen Xiuyang either.

Relying on his graceful body movements, he easily dealt with the demon in a short while. When he reached the next level, the demon's strength was already comparable to that of the second level of the Foundation Establishment Stage!

Chen Xiuyang also passed it easily, and then passed the twelfth floor.

By the thirteenth level, the demon's strength had reached the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Period!
Chen Xiuyang is only in his fifties now. Even with the help of his ancestors, he can fall into enlightenment from time to time, which makes his cultivation speed far exceed that of his peers. He is almost as good as those geniuses with three spiritual roots. However, his current cultivation level is just barely reaching the third level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The fourth level has already entered the middle stage of foundation building.

Fortunately, Chen Xiuyang was no ordinary man. With the addition of purple energy, his understanding of the true meaning of Wind Walking far exceeded that of other Wind Walking cultivators of the same level. With his serious response, one Wind Walking spell after another exerted far more power than usual. The fourth-level Foundation Establishment demon was often swept up by the hurricane and cut by wind blades.

It took only an incense stick of time before he was beheaded on the spot.

During this period, he also tried to take out his brick to fight, but the power of the brick was not fully projected. It was only equivalent to a normal high-grade spiritual weapon, and there was no spirit in the weapon.

No wonder.

The trial tower mainly tests "cultivation", "true meaning", "combat awareness", "mastery of techniques" and other abilities that are more personal. If you can project a magic weapon with a spirit into it, then what is the point of competing?

In addition, because the ages of the trial participants are different, there will naturally be a mechanism for weighting and deweighting points according to their physical ages. In short, as a trial tower that has been operating for at least tens of thousands of years, it has collected countless data on trial participants and can definitely be fair and just!

However, even so, being younger will still be a disadvantage.

After all, the tempering of will, the cultivation of combat awareness, the accumulation of combat experience, the comprehension of the true meaning of the laws, etc., all require time to accumulate, and the gap between cultivators of the same age and the same spiritual root level is often reflected in these.

Therefore, the older the monk is, the greater the gap between him and his peers becomes. If he is too young and has practiced for too short a time, it will be difficult for him to create a sufficient gap with monks of the same age.

And those trial-takers like Chen Xiuyang, who are only in their fifties or less than sixty years old, are the ones who suffer the most, because according to the rules, only cultivators under the age of one hundred and fifty are eligible to participate in the trial. After a hundred years, they are already over the age limit and have no chance to participate in the trial.

This trial will be their first and last trial in the Trial Tower.

On the contrary, those under the age of 50 still have another chance.

soon.

Chen Xiuyang encountered a bottleneck.

When he entered the fourteenth floor of the Trial Tower and fought a demon two levels higher than the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he seemed to be struggling. It took him half an hour to finally defeat his opponent with a slight advantage with great difficulty.

By the fifteenth level, when the opponent's strength had reached the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Period, Chen Xiuyang was completely paralyzed.

The difference in strength made it almost impossible for him to launch an effective attack. He knew that he would not be able to pass this level. He could only rely on his unpredictable body movements to dodge continuously. After delaying for two incense sticks, he was finally defeated and the monster bit off his neck with a "Ah Wu". The next moment, Chen Xiuyang turned into a white light and was teleported back to the square.

But what he never expected was.

"Shhhhh!"

Countless eyes fell on him.

"?" Chen Xiuyang looked puzzled.

At this time.

Princess Yunyi stepped forward and said with a sweet smile: "My husband, you are really beyond people's expectations. With the strength of just entering the third level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, you can actually deal with a monster of the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage for so long. Many people with three spiritual roots are not as good as you~"

Chen Xiuyang looked up and saw that, as expected, more than half of the original eighty or ninety people had been eliminated. Those who had persisted until now and had not been eliminated were basically cultivators who were older than Chen Xiuyang and had higher cultivation bases, and their qualifications were all above three spiritual roots.

"Xiuyang boy." A Jindan deacon on the grand viewing platform said with a smile, "I wonder if you have a master. Are you interested in becoming my disciple? Although I have a disciple now, if you are willing to become my disciple, I can demote him to a personal disciple!"

From the sound of it, it seems that he is obviously a popular Jindan cultivator.

"Deacon Li, you are so disrespectful to your elders." Another Feng Xing Jin Dan cultivator immediately got angry and scolded him loudly, "You already have a disciple with wind spirit roots, why are you competing with me for it?"

In the Great Wu Kingdom, there is only one popular and orthodox Dharma inheritance in Wuhen Mountain, but there are too many of them in Taixuan Sect. You can find a handful of them at a glance, and there is even a popular and orthodox Taoist inheritance!
Soon, many popular Jindan cultivators came out to snatch disciples.

In their opinion, the Wind Root at the Four Roots level is not rare and there is no need to fight for it, but what is rare is that Chen Xiuyang has shown a profound attainment of the Wind Root truth at such a young age. This proves that he has a very high comprehension. Not only is his chance of achieving the Golden Core in the future very high, but it may not be impossible for him to enter the middle stage of the Golden Core or even the late stage of the Golden Core!
Even the high and mighty Yuanying elder, Master Wufeng, extended an olive branch to Chen Xiuyang in a friendly manner, hoping to accept him as his personal disciple~~
For a wind spiritual root cultivator at the fourth spiritual root level, this is undoubtedly the greatest honor.

Unfortunately.

Chen Xiuyang had already inherited the Fengxing Zhengfa and didn't want to join Taixuan Sect at all, so he politely refused one by one, and then joined hands with Princess Yunyi and returned to his own family team calmly.

He did not feel proud at all. After all, his family knew his own business, and he, Chen Xiuyang, was just an ordinary person in the family.

Time flies by.

When the last of this batch of trial participants was kicked out of the trial tower, the first round of trials was declared over.

The Trial Tower ranked the ninety-three trialists based on their performance during the trial, weighted and subtracted by age, and displayed them in order of ranking on the cloud screen.

According to past practice, the Trial Tower will give out a list of the top one hundred trialists of this session. However, this first batch of trialists only has ninety-three people, so naturally everyone is on the list for the time being.

The person currently ranked first is naturally the great genius with dual spiritual roots, Xiong Yingkui.

And Chen Xiuyang ranked eighth!
This is a very fierce ranking. There are dozens of three-spiritual-root geniuses who are pushed behind by him. No wonder he has attracted a lot of popular Jindan cultivators to fight for him. In fact, his fame is almost as good as that of the double-spiritual-root genius.

After all, Xiong Yingkui is the young master of the Wanhe Sect of Liang State. There is a Taoist tradition waiting for him to inherit in his family, and they can't snatch it away. However, it is possible that Chen Xiuyang could be picked up by them.

even.

Even the drowsy Taixu Zhenjun couldn't help but open his eyes and take another look at Chen Xiuyang.

With the qualifications of a mere four mutant spiritual roots, to be able to reach this point is an extremely rare thing even looking at the 23 Heroes' Gatherings that he had participated in.

You know, Master Taixu didn't even look at Xiong Yingkui.

However, it was just one more look.

In the opinion of Master Taixu, Chen Xiuyang has the potential to reach the late Jindan stage at most.

What a pity! Master Taixu obviously underestimated Chen.

then.

The second batch of trial participants entered the trial.

This time, Chen Xinlei, who was only 28 years old, was drawn.

Unlike when no one paid attention to Chen Xiuyang when he appeared, with his talent of three spiritual roots mutated into thunder spiritual roots, he attracted a lot of attention as soon as he appeared. The degree of attention he received was second only to Xi Lingxiang, the great genius with two spiritual roots who was also drawn.

However, Xi Lingxiang was also very young, only 29 years old, with a cute bun, looking youthful, lively and very cute. Her identity and background were also very unusual, as she was a descendant of the Taixuan Sect's Yuanying elder [Zhenren Wanhe].

As soon as Xi Lingxiang appeared, Master Wanhe sitting in the Nascent Soul stage began to show off, as if to say, "This is my great-great-great-great-granddaughter, and she must have excellent aptitude."

Another person who was also very cocky was Lei Wuji, who was sitting in the Jindan seat on the grand viewing platform.

Soon, all the Jindan cultivators on the huge viewing platform knew that Chen Xinlei was Lei Wuji’s disciple!
Many of them may not know Lei Wuji, but they will definitely know Chen Xinlei in the future.

If the third spiritual root, the thunder spiritual root, can be inherited to the Lei Xing Taoist school, there is still a certain probability of reaching the Nascent Soul stage.

Moreover, thunder magic has strong combat power. Once one achieves the Nascent Soul stage, he will have a high status even among Nascent Soul cultivators.

While the Jindan cultivators on the stage were talking, below the stage, the trial-takers who were going to take part in this round of trials had already lined up, holding the identity cards they had received when they signed up, and went to the registration office to register, and then lined up to enter the teleportation halo.

"Hello, you are only 28 years old? Your aura is already at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage?" Xi Lingxiang happened to be standing next to Chen Xinlei. She noticed the name on his ID card and took the initiative to greet him with a smile. "I thought I was 29 years old and would be the youngest contestant."

"Hello, Miss Lingxiang." Chen Xinlei bowed gracefully, "I just broke through to the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage not long ago, so my accumulation should not be as deep as Miss Lingxiang's."

"You are already very good. I also reached the ninth level when I was 28 years old." Xi Lingxiang said with a smile, "Then why don't we compete together to see who can get the first place in this round."

"Okay." Chen Xinlei agreed concisely.

The two of them talked.

The three spiritual root geniuses nearby were all silent, but they couldn't help cursing in their hearts, saying that this man with great spiritual root talent was so arrogant when he spoke.

Soon, all the trial participants in this round entered the trial space, and the second round of trials officially began!

Chen Xinlei passed all the levels easily, but when he reached the tenth floor, he ran into trouble. It was a demon in the first foundation-building stage!

Under normal circumstances, a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining cannot defeat a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage. Moreover, here he cannot use various treasures for cross-level combat and can only rely on his own abilities.

But what no one expected was.

Although Chen Xinlei is still young, his mastery of the Great Way of Thunder has actually gone beyond the level of artistic conception and entered the realm of true meaning, and has reached the level of minor success in the true meaning of Thunder.

You know, even if a cultivator with three spiritual roots has reached the foundation-building stage, it is extremely difficult to achieve a small degree of success in his field. Most of them can only reach this level when they reach the late stage of foundation-building or even break through the golden elixir stage.

The true meaning can be said to be the prototype of the laws of heaven.

Relying on his minor success in the true meaning of Thunder, Chen Xinlei actually killed the demon at the foundation-building level with a blast.

Then, he killed a second-level Foundation Establishment demon.

It was not until he reached the third level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, the twelfth level of the Trial Tower, that he died on the spot and was teleported out of the Trial Tower.

Almost at the same time as him was teleported Xi Lingxiang, a genius with dual spiritual roots.

The two looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

They can be considered as brothers in distress, for a simple reason. Given their age and spiritual root qualifications, they must participate in this Taixuan Heroes Conference because they cannot wait for the next one like ordinary cultivators with three spiritual roots!
A hundred years later, they would have already become Jindan monks!

Such a record naturally caused the onlookers to exclaim in amazement.

After a while, all the trial participants in this round were kicked out. When the trial participants' results were announced, there was an uproar at the scene.

Chen Xinlei's points ranking actually ranked second in this year's overall list, second only to Xiong Yingkui of Liang Guowanhezong, while Xi Lingxiang was slightly inferior and temporarily ranked third in the overall list!
No one would have expected that Chen Xinlei, who had three spiritual roots and mutated thunder spiritual roots, could actually surpass the one with two spiritual roots!
Seeing this result, Xi Lingxiang's nose was sore.

She wanted to excuse herself by saying that she was too young and it was too disadvantageous for her to take part in this trial, but when she thought about how Chen Xinlei was even younger...she couldn't even cry.

"Hahaha~" Lei Wuji laughed, "This is my disciple Chen Xinlei. With such a disciple, what else could I, Lei Wuji, ask for?"

Everyone couldn't help but look at him with envy and jealousy.

But the next moment.

Suddenly, a thunderous voice sounded from the group of Yuanying elders: "Xin Lei, are you willing to take me, Wan Lei, as your master? I will definitely pass on the Leixing Dao of our sect to you."

"What?"

Boom!

A bolt of thunder exploded in Lei Wuji's mind, and he was so angry that he almost jumped up from his seat.

You old ghost Wan Lei, you are so shameless that you snatched his apprentice on the spot! ?
