Immortal Journey

Chapter 37
When spring comes, I know that the sun is good, the sun is warm, the breeze is blowing, the oily green grass is carelessly swaying all over the mountains and plains, the air is mixed with a faint fragrance of grass and trees, and the layers of greenery seem to have no end Generally, it is refreshing.
From late spring to early summer, a pool of green leaves is swaying with the waves, and the pink lotus tips are shy and timid to send fragrance. In the dimness, you can see the enchanting figure of the lotus picking woman in the depths of the lotus, and you can hear the faint and moving singing.
As summer passes and autumn begins, sweet-scented osmanthus is everywhere, and chrysanthemums are proud of the autumn frost. Thousands of trees are bleak and fallen leaves are scattered, and only chrysanthemums are left gracefully and happily blooming.
In the blink of an eye, winter is coming, the cold air hits people, the ice and snow are flying, and the endless silver-white world seems to freeze all life, but if you look closely, doesn't that just herald a bumper harvest in the coming year?
No, why is spring, summer, autumn and winter fleeting? A year in the human world is only a moment of thought, isn't that something magical that can only be found in the fairyland of heaven?
Stretching out his hand to catch a snowflake, he could indeed feel the coolness in his palm, but Ren Ling became more and more convinced that this was probably just an illusion!
The moment this thought flashed through her mind, her eyes suddenly cleared up, and when she looked up, she found that all the disciples in the square had fallen into a maze and couldn't extricate themselves.
It's Master Huilan!
In a blink of an eye, Ren Ling found a group of people parked in the sky, headed by Master Hui Lan, the deputy head she had seen in the Yin Ling Hall, followed by ten female cultivators, all of whom were in the foundation building period from the costumes of monks.
The moment Ren Ling woke up, Master Hui Lan found out that he was looking at her gently with a slight smile in his eyes. Ren Ling quickly leaned over to salute, and whispered, "Ren Ling sees her. Past master."

A gentle force lifted her up, Master Huilan nodded lightly, Ren Ling stood still with lowered eyebrows when she saw this, and waited for the other disciples to wake up, or whether Master Huilan withdrew her Mana withdraws from illusion.
Is this the power of the Enchanting Jue?
Ren Ling lowered his head expressionlessly, but was extremely shocked in his heart. There were nearly [-] disciples in the square, and all of them fell under the spell without paying attention! The illusion was so real that it was like being there. If it wasn't for her often exchanging spells with her juniors, she might be as intoxicated in the illusion as the disciples next to her. In comparison, the skills they mastered are not even as good as little witches, and she sighed faintly in her heart After taking a breath, Ren Ling suddenly felt that the way of cultivation is really long and far away.
After a quarter of an hour, the disciples in the square gradually came to their senses. Grandmaster Hui Lan flicked lightly with one hand, and said peacefully, "What everyone has just imagined is just the simplest illusion in the first tactic of Enchantment. The reason why this deity is The purpose of using this delusion technique is to encourage everyone to practice hard and strive to establish a foundation as soon as possible..."

The top of the twelfth floor of Jingyan Peak.
The nine elders sat on the ground, or fingered the spirit tea with a smile and sipped lightly, or closed their eyes slightly, or talked in a low voice, or looked calm and silent.
"I didn't expect that child Ren Ling to be the first one to wake up." Liu Xiang clapped her palms and smiled, looking at Ling Ru who was sitting silently, "It seems that she really deserves to be a child with a very clear body, with good foundation, high comprehension, and fast cultivation .”

"Are you awake?" Lianyi, the master of Hongyi Peak, asked in a shrill voice, put down the spirit tea in his hand, let go of his consciousness, paused for a while, and sighed, "That child is indeed a good one, and he can use Yin Ling in Cymbidium. It is really rare for Jue to wake up within a quarter of an hour, I heard that she has already cultivated to the second level of Yin-Yang Kung Fu?"

"If it's only the second level, I'm afraid I can't get out of the illusion so quickly." Liu Xiang shook his head. Ren Ling had indeed reached the second level before the exercise class was suspended, but the progress since then has not yet been made. It is said that.
Lingru opened her lips coldly, "Only by practicing to the third level, can one voluntarily escape from the Yin Lingjue performed by monks in the alchemy stage, Ling'er," a thought flashed in her eyes, and she continued to say lightly,
"I think it has already broken through."

Everyone was speechless for a while, and their spiritual senses involuntarily explored Ren Ling, "It's just a child of the fifth level of Qi training," Zhong Mei, the master of Danyu Peak, sighed, "It's really the luck of our Lingling Sect to have such comprehension. !"

"I heard that her two male cultivators have very good foundations." Liu Xiang nodded with a smile. As the head of the sect, she naturally cared for the outstanding disciples, "Have the Yin-Yang exercises also broken through to the second level?"

"Yes," Lingru replied, "Ling'er is an extremely pure body, and this peak will naturally assign the best male disciples to her, so the possibility of establishing a foundation will be several percent higher."

In the square.

After Master Huilan briefly encouraged the participating disciples, he explained the rules of the competition in detail, and then left the ten foundation-building stage disciples as judges, and left the competition with the teleportation technique.

This inner door competition adopts a double-elimination elimination system, which means that if you lose twice in the competition, you will be automatically eliminated.

A total of ten arenas were set up. Except for the last arena with only 32 teams, the remaining nine arenas had 32 teams.The 32 teams in each arena draw lots first, the number of lots ranges from [-] to [-], and the two adjacent lots compete. The [-] teams that won in the first round are called the winning group, and the [-] teams that lost The teams are called the losers.The second round is the [-]-[-] match in the winning group. The [-] teams that win are still in the winning group, and the [-] teams that lose will fall into the losing group; , the eight losing teams were eliminated because they lost twice, and the eight winning teams remained in the losing group, and the next eight teams that joined the losing group will compete in the next round.If this cycle continues, it will take nine rounds of competition to determine the top three.According to the regulations of the Inner Sect Competition, the first two rounds of competitions will be held on the first day, three rounds of competitions will be held on the second day, and four rounds of competitions will be conducted on the third day.

Ren Ling and the others won the fifth ring. The judge who guarded the ring was a thin and tall uncle with a pointed chin and thin phoenix eyes, but his eyes were quite kind. She quickly organized the disciples to draw well. The lottery for the first round of the competition will be announced for a quarter of an hour before the official competition.

According to the rules of the competition, the match starts with the one with the lowest lottery number. Ren Ling got the No.17 lottery, so there is still some time before the game, but it is the first time for the three of them to participate in the door-to-door competition. I was nervous, so instead of walking around like other disciples, I sat cross-legged not far from the ring and adjusted my breath.

A quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and with a whistle from the judge's uncle, six disciples nimbly jumped onto the ring.

The arena is about three feet in radius, and the two sides occupy each side. As long as one team member falls from the arena, it will be considered a loser.

The two teams on the stage were standing in a character formation. The female disciples were in front and the two male disciples were behind. Ren Ling squinted her eyes and could only see that the two male disciples of the No. [-] team were similar to her. With her cultivation base, the rest of the people should be above her cultivation base.

The No. [-] female disciple pulled out a green ribbon from her waist and threw it into the air. The ribbon grew with the wind, and when it was a foot wide and several feet long, it wrapped around the female disciple round and round. Form a protective shield that emits faint blue light.Seeing this, the two male disciples at the back also touched their waists, took out a long flute and a piccolo respectively, flicked them in the air, and immediately changed from one to two, from two to four, and the number continued to increase, slowly spinning around them.The No. [-] team also summoned their respective defensive magic weapons without any delay, and the two teams entered a confrontation in the blink of an eye.

Sister No. [-] let out a soft snort, and offered a golden diamond-shaped handkerchief that was no more than one foot square. The diamond-shaped handkerchief flew obliquely towards No. At the moment above the head, golden light overflowed, and countless long golden cones pierced the round protective light shield of female nun No. hole.

The No. [-] female cultivator smiled coldly, and at the same time as the diamond-shaped handkerchief appeared, she stretched out her hands and threw out two crescent knives. The blades were covered with flame-like patterns. Nun's ribbon shield.The strange thing is that every time the fire knife slashes the green body, it will be closed again as if it was reborn. The blue light of the shield is [-]% stronger than before, and the No. [-] female cultivator's expression is not messed up when she sees this , with both hands quickly making a tactic, and in an instant three giant fireballs rushed straight out. The fireball reached the vicinity of the No. [-] female cultivator, and unexpectedly connected with the two crescent knives, forming a huge pillar of fire that surrounded the No. [-] female cultivator group. Xiu lightly scolded, and struck back with Thunderbolt Palm Thunder, thunder and lightning flashed past, and made two loud noises and exploded violently on the circular shield.

Not to be outdone, the four male cultivators used their own attacking magic weapons one after another. For a moment, sparks flew all over the arena, and swords and swords were dazzling. It was difficult to distinguish the good from the bad.

The two sides were evenly matched, and the stalemate lasted for nearly a stick of incense without a winner. Just as everyone was watching the battle attentively, the No. [-] female cultivator suddenly yelled angrily and jumped up several meters, her hands were as fast as double shadows The ground strikes, and suddenly released seven palm lightnings in succession to hit the No. [-] female cultivator. Every time the lightning strikes, the round protective light shield on the No. [-] female cultivator shakes unsteadily. After the seven thunderbolts were all struck down, the mask started to shake violently, appearing vulnerable to a single blow.
The disciples under the ring exploded into various cheers, shouting one after another, "No. [-] wins! No. [-] wins!".
However, Ren Ling frowned slightly. If she read correctly, the No. [-] female cultivator's seven palm thunders were probably at the end of her battle. First, she could tell from her trembling voice that she was not Calmly use spells, and even though the pillar of fire has been blocking everyone's eyes, people can't see the situation clearly, but since the fireball and crescent knife are connected together, the situation has been extremely stable, giving people a feeling of being gradually Nibbles the feeling of swallowing.
At the moment when Ren Ling was puzzled and analyzed, amidst the loud shouts of the crowd, the No. [-] female cultivator suddenly flew backwards like a rag doll, and fell straight out of the ring.
All the voices stopped abruptly because of this sudden change. When everyone was still confused, Uncle Shou Lei gently floated onto the ring and said coldly, "In the first round, the number two won, and the number one lost." .”
