Nine Turns Sword God

Suddenly, several breaths approached from the sky.

Chu Shaoyang turned his head to look.

He saw a group of six people, four men and two women, coming in the air.

The leader was an elder, Elder Tong, who tried to kill Chu Shaoyang during the rookie trial.

The five people behind him were all rookie disciples, dusty and exhausted, as if they had just rushed back from outside.

"Fortunately we made it!"

The red-clothed young man breathed a sigh of relief: "This mission is really difficult. If it weren't for Elder Tong's support, we wouldn't be able to come back!"

The pink-skirted girl next to him said with lingering fear: "Even if the demon beast of the eighth level of the Holy King Realm consumes most of its strength in giving birth, it is not something we can easily deal with."

"Thanks to Senior Brother Chen, who advanced to the Supreme Sword Heart Perfection level at a critical moment and killed that beast, we were able to come back alive."

Several disciples looked at the white-clothed young man at the same time.

The young man was not tall and looked a little thin.

His face was handsome, but a little pale, as if he had been injured.

"Chen Xuanjian!"

Zhang Zhongming's face immediately showed fear when he saw this person.

"So this is Brother Chen!"

The disciples of Taichu Saint Palace were talking about it.

"I heard that this Brother Chen has been in Taichu Saint Palace for three years and just turned fifty yesterday."

"Three years ago, he was only at the first level of the Saint King Realm, but he had a strong talent for swordsmanship."

"In just three short years, he not only entered the fifth level of the Saint King Realm, but also advanced to the level of the Supreme Sword Heart Perfection. He can be called a genius among geniuses!"

Chu Shaoyang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Chen Xuanjian a few more times.

There was a unique sword intent on Chen Xuanjian.

That was his unique sword intent, which was both hard and soft.

It was the first time that Chu Shaoyang saw such a strange sword intent, and he even felt a little palpitation from it.

Elder Tong smiled at Chen Xuanjian and said with satisfaction: "Jian'er, you have improved a lot in this training."

"With your current strength, you are enough to sweep all the new disciples and sit firmly in the first place."

Chen Xuanjian smiled modestly: "Master, you are too kind."

"Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Sister Yun are young, and their realm has already surpassed me. I may not be able to take the first place."

Elder Tong laughed: "Fifty years old, fifth level of Saint King Realm, can fight across two small realms, and have the sword intention of the perfect level of Supreme Sword Heart!"

"With such talent and strength, are they worthy of being your opponents?"

"You!"

Zhang Zhongming was furious.

Before he could say anything, Elder Tong released his breath directly to suppress Zhang Zhongming.

"What, you don't accept it?"

Zhang Zhongming was so angry that his face turned blue.

But the other party was an elder, and he was no match at all, so he could only force himself to swallow his anger.

Elder Tong sneered: "Everyone knows that Liuyun is the most useless among the elders."

"He can only say that he is lucky to have two genius disciples like you. What does he have to do with it?"

Zhang Zhongming was furious: "Tong, you dare to scold my master?"

"Why not?"

The young man in red sneered: "Elder Tong is not only one of the three elders of the outer pavilion, but also a member of the Tong family!"

"Where is your master?"

"A casual cultivator of unknown origin, the most useless among the elders!"

"If the quotas of other elders were not full, how could the two of you who were recruited by exception be assigned to him?"

Zhang Zhongming was completely angry: "Sun Yutao, if you dare to participate in this competition, I will kill you!"

The young man in red froze his smile, and fear flashed in his eyes.

Liuyun is a waste, but his two disciples are not simple.

How dare he challenge Zhang Zhongming?

"What's the matter with quarreling on the day of the competition?"

A sharp shout sounded, with a strong breath, instantly subduing all the disciples present.

An elder in white came in mid-air, followed by hundreds of disciples, and landed in the middle of the square.

Everyone saluted.

"Meet Elder Xu!"

Only Chu Shaoyang and a few others did not bring their luggage.

Elder Xu glanced at them and said indifferently: "Are you disciples of Xueyun Palace?"

Chu Shaoyang bowed slightly: "Chu Shaoyang, a disciple of Xueyun Palace, greets Elder Xu."

Elder Xu nodded: "This time, there are seven people in a team. It's okay that you only have five people, but you have to choose a captain."

Several people looked at Chu Shaoyang at the same time.

Chu Shaoyang smiled lightly: "That's me."

Elder Xu frowned slightly: "The position of captain is related to the ranking of this competition and the distribution of the final rewards."

"Are you sure you want him to be the captain?"

Several people nodded directly without any hesitation.

"They let this loser be the captain?"

Zhang Zhongming sneered: "The captain can get 50% of the reward, and the rest of the people will share the other 50%."

"What's the point of giving a loser more training resources? It's better to raise a beast pet. It's better to give it to a beast than to give it to him!"

Elder Xu's eyes were stern, and Zhang Zhongming quickly shut up.

"Forget it, since you all agree, let him be the captain."

Elder Xu looked at everyone and said loudly: "This year, there are disciples from Xueyun Palace participating in the competition, and the rules have changed."

"The competition will be held in the inner space of the Spirit King Tree, divided into three areas, and nine treasures are buried."

"Each team has seven people, mainly in the team, and earn points by defeating disciples, killing monsters, or robbing treasures."

"The time limit is one month. When the time is up, you will be forcibly expelled from the inner space of the Spirit King Tree. According to the final ranking, the palace master will personally award the reward."

Suddenly, exclamations broke out!

"This year, the palace master personally awards the reward?"

"If you can be favored by the palace master and be accepted as his personal disciple, then you will be firmly seated as the young palace master!"

Everyone's eyes were hot, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger.

Elder Xu continued: "The opponents you defeat are at different levels and have different points."

"Defeating a disciple of the same realm will earn you one point. Points will be doubled for each higher level. The same applies to monsters."

"Nine treasures, each worth one hundred points."

"After you enter, each disciple will have someone assigned to record the scores."

After saying that, he took out a token and injected power into it.

The token lights up green and spreads out ripples.

A green seedling slowly grows in the middle of the square, growing with the ripples.

In just a few breaths, it has grown into a towering ancient tree with luxuriant branches and leaves.

When the green light flashes, it is like breathing, activating the spiritual energy floating between heaven and earth.

"This is the Spirit King Tree, one of the three greatest treasures of my Taichu Holy Palace."

Elder Xu introduced: "When the first palace master founded the Taichu Shrine, he left a seed and fed it with hundreds of fifth-grade holy medicines to cultivate such a Spirit King tree."

"It can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and after refining it, it condenses into the Spirit King Spring. One drop is comparable to a hundred spiritual crystals."

"In addition, the Spirit King Tree has grown for three thousand years and has its own space inside. However, it can only last for one month each time it is opened, and the range of activities will continue to shrink."

"If you cross the border, you will be swallowed by the Spirit King Tree and your body will be gone."

Many new disciples gasped.

Can this tree eat people?

Chu Shaoyang kept staring at the Spirit King Tree, with a flash of light in his eyes.

I wonder if there are tree species like the Spirit King Tree in the inner space.

If you can get one and plant it in the sword pavilion, it can greatly increase the cultivation speed of the sword pavilion disciples.

In less than ten years, Jiange will surely become a rival to the Taichu Holy Palace!

However, what Elder Xu said next instantly caused an uproar!

"There are still three tree species in the Spirit King Tree. Although the chance of planting a Spirit King Tree is very small, it is better than nothing."

"Also, any treasures you get inside can be taken away directly and counted as rewards for the competition."
