Chapter 96 The competition begins (two-in-one)
Three days later, the Qingzhushan tribe.
In the square outside the Presbyterian Hall, dozens of people gathered together, almost all of them clan members above the fourth level of Qi Refining.
The tribesmen who participated in the Fangshi Competition left their tribe today and headed to Luoyunfang City. All the tribesmen came out one after another to see off Lin Shilu and others.
Lin Shikang and Lin Shigong, as well as the clan leader Lin Shihua and other generations of clan members were all absent.
In the square, Lin Xingyu and Lin Tianfeng said goodbye to their familiar clan members.
Lin Shikang looked at the people in front of him, seeming a little melancholy.
Although he had given instructions many times a few days ago, Lin Shikang still pulled Lin Shilu into a long chat.
After talking for half a quarter of an hour, Lin Shilu took the initiative to say goodbye.
"Third brother, ninth brother, it's getting late, we are about to set off, the family depends on you!"
"Well, be careful and remember not to act recklessly!"
After saying that, Lin Shikang took out a storage bag, handed it to Lin Shilu, and started transmitting the message.
After more than ten breaths, until Lin Shilu fully agreed, Lin Shikang breathed a sigh of relief and personally sent Lin Shilu and others outside the family formation.
In a matter of seconds, a large number of tribesmen appeared at the entrance of the formation.
Looking at the clan members, Lin Shilu felt uncomfortable. It was hard to predict the farewell for this trip, and it might be a farewell forever.
"Shi Lu, let's go!"
Lin Shikang waved his hand, what should be explained has been explained, and it is time to set off.
The corners of Lin Shilu's eyes were slightly red. He led Lin Tianfeng and others to bow to a certain person in the clan, and then passed through the light curtain of the clan protection formation.
Outside the family formation.
Lin Shilu waved his hands and took out a flying sword from his storage bag and hung it in front of him.
After a spell was cast, the green-yellow spirit sword quickly grew to three feet long. Lin Shilu jumped on the sword first, followed by Lin Xingyu and Lin Tianfeng behind him.
Injecting spiritual power, the spirit sword rose into the sky and flew towards Luoyunfang City in the north.
Watching Lin Shilu leave with his sword and disappear into the sky, Lin Shikang still did not move.
After staring at it for half a quarter of an hour, it was not until Lin Shigong reminded him that he came back to his senses, sighed, and said to Lin Shihua.
“Have all the family formations been activated?”
"It's already turned on!"
Lin Shihua said truthfully, and then Lin Shihua reported on the Lin family's defense situation.
Since the Lin family entered a state of war readiness, the entire clan has been patrolled by teams of several people every day. Even the scope of the clan protection formation has been reduced a lot. It only covers the main peak of Qingzhu Mountain and a small area where mortals live. The town is enveloped.
The scope is reduced and all formations are activated. The defense and attack power of the formation are increased several times, but the consumption of spiritual stones is huge. If it continues for too long, the Lin family simply cannot bear it and can only persist. Half a year.
After hearing Lin Shihua’s arrangements, Lin Shikang was very satisfied.
After disbanding the clan members, Lin Shikang and Lin Shihua inspected the clan territory together and found nothing missing, so they returned to the top of Qingzhu Mountain together.
……
Jinjiao Mountain, the land of the Jin family.
Under a thousand-foot-high mountain, several rivers converge at the foot of the mountain, forming a huge waterfall, which is quite spectacular.
In an attic on the top of the mountain, sitting high in the hall, Jin Zhiying was sitting with a man in black robes.
Below, several members of the Jin family were sitting in rows, listening to the conversation between Jin Zhiying and the old man in black robe.
Jin Zhiying picked up the jade tea cup, took a sip of the spirit tea, and chatted with the old man in black robe beside him, his tone was very polite.
"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, are you sure of the matter entrusted to you?"
Faced with Jin Zhiying's inquiry, the old man surnamed Zhuang showed a strange look.
“I am absolutely sure that I can break through the other clan-protecting formations. It’s just that the Lin family’s clan-protecting formation is not of a low level, so I’m not very sure. But under the full attack of Fellow Daoist Jin, as long as one opens a During the gap between the formations, he took the opportunity to find a flaw, and there is still a lot of hope to break the formation."
Hearing Zhuang Zhenxin's promise, Jin Zhiying showed a strange smile.
The Luoyun Mountain Range has been peaceful for almost two hundred years. In order to annex the other four major families in one fell swoop, he has been planning for decades. Now the time is finally ripe and it is time to take action.
Since we take action, we must completely destroy the other four major families. If we can get the wealth of the Sun family and the Lin family, there may be the possibility of hitting the Golden Core realm.
Jin Zhiying was very excited when he thought of this.
“Well, Taoist friend Youzhuang will take action, and we will definitely succeed this time.”
"This is a small deposit. When things are done, the Jin family will make up for the remaining spirit stones, which will definitely satisfy you!"
After saying that, Jin Zhiying took out a storage bag and handed it to Zhuang Zhenxin.
After taking the storage bag from Jin Zhiying and examining it with his spiritual consciousness, Zhuang Zhenxin showed a satisfied smile and quickly regained his composure.
“Don’t worry, fellow Taoist Jin, I will do my best, but the ugly words are ahead. According to the agreement, after the matter is completed, I will be allowed to read the classics collected by the Sun family and the Lin family. The thing I want must be Leave it to me, I hope fellow Taoist Jin will not break his promise."
"Otherwise..."
Jin Zhiying nodded and said confidently:
"That's natural. As long as fellow Taoist Zhuang completes his mission, our Jin family will never break our promise!"
"Hmm!"
The two of them After reaching an agreement, Jin Zhiying turned his gaze and looked at the clan members below.
"Zhisong, the day of the city competition is approaching. You and Chaozong should take the junior there and act according to the plan. The junior of the Lin family is too talented and must be killed. If you escape, there will be endless troubles in the future.”
"Yes!"
Jin Zhisong stood up, clasped his fists, answered, and left with the clan members.
......
In a secret room in a small courtyard in Luoyunfang City, Lin Tianming was running his skills, breathing out spiritual energy evenly.
Following a message, he entered the secret room, interrupting Lin Tianming's cultivation that had lasted for several months.
For half a year, Lin Tianming has been practicing in seclusion, taking the jade spirit fruit provided by his family, and stabilizing his cultivation at the middle stage of the ninth level of Qi refining.
If it weren’t for the fact that the effect of Jade Spirit Fruit was much worse than the first time after taking it too many times, otherwise it might be possible to go one step further by combining it with the elixir.
Opening his eyes, a glimmer of light flashed in his bright eyes.
At this time, Lin Tianming's breath was very stable and restrained, and his whole body was in excellent condition.
Packed up the jade boxes and vases that were scattered around, got up and left the secret room.
In the small courtyard, Lin Shilu, Lin Tianfeng and Lin Xingyu had arrived at Fangshi and were talking about something with Lin Xingzhi and others.
Lin Shilu was very happy to see Lin Tianming coming out and waved him over.
Lin Tianming quickly stepped forward to greet him;
"Tianming has met Grandpa Fifteen and all the elders of the same clan."
"Tianming, come and sit down!"
"Yes!"
After Lin Tianming stepped forward and sat down, he greeted Lin Tianfeng.
After half a year, Lin Tianfeng has made great progress. He has almost reached the peak of the seventh level of Qi refining. His aura is extremely sharp, like a spiritual sword, which is particularly eye-catching.
Unlike him, Lin Tianming has a reserved aura. Apart from looking strong, he looks like an ordinary martial artist.
After a few words of greeting, Lin Shilu once again recounted the rules and details of the city competition.
Although several people had heard it several times, they still listened carefully. After all, Lin Shilu had personally participated in the city competition, and his experience was completely different from what others had conveyed.
An hour passed, and Lin Shilu finished introducing the rules of the Fang City Competition, the scope of the training ground, and the strength of the monsters.
After Lin Shilu’s careful introduction and sharing of experience, Lin Tianming and others received a great deal.
Finally, Lin Shilu took out a book and handed it to several people.
"This contains information about the other four major families, only the most important dozen or so. Although it may not be accurate, you can refer to it. Although the Sun family is our ally, we cannot relax. Without a war, We are still competitors, and we must proceed with caution.”
“Yes!”
After receiving the books, they entered the secret room for a short period of retreat, waiting for the city competition to begin. .
......
In the secret room, Lin Tianming took out the books and reviewed them carefully.
Jin Zhiying, Jin Chaozong, Jin Qishan, and Lin Tianming stopped at this point in their review.
Jin Qishan, a dual-spiritual monk from the Jin family, is only twenty-eight years old. He is definitely a master of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. He just meets the conditions for the competition. He will definitely participate in the competition. When he thinks of this, he immediately feels A lot of pressure.
"Huh..."
Took out a breath and reviewed the character introductions at the end again.
Sun Dingxian, Sun Ruiqing, Luo Chengjian, and Wu Yinbao read the list of monks from various major families in the book one after another and memorized it firmly.
There is still one month left, so he should improve his cultivation as much as possible to be more safe. Soon, Lin Tianming will start practicing again.
......
In the northern area of Luoyun Mountains, in a secret room in a valley on the edge of the Jin family's territory.
Lin Xingrong sat on the stone bed in the secret room and talked to himself.
“There are still ten days until the city competition. It’s almost time to leave!”
After speaking, Lin Xingrong issued two summonses.
After a while, Lin Xingqi and Lin Tianhong entered the secret room.
Looking at the two people, who are not much different in age but are of two generations, they solemnly said:
"Xingqi, I will be away for more than a month. During this period, you are not allowed to leave the cave without permission. , if there is an emergency, take the juniors with you Go to Qianchuanfang City to find Senior Ye!”
“If you really have to go to Qianchuanfang City, give this storage bag to Senior Ye. I believe he will protect you after seeing it. A while! ”
After speaking, Lin Xingrong took out a storage bag and handed it to Lin Xingqi.
Lin Xingqi took the storage bag and said firmly:
"Brother Eleven, don't worry, I will protect several juniors and will never let down Brother Eleven's instructions!"
Lin Xingrong was very satisfied after hearing this and asked the two of them to return to the secret room to practice.
After the two left, Lin Xingrong stood up and left the cave, reluctantly flying to the south.
Time passed by in a hurry.
One morning, Lin Tianming walked out of the secret room and gathered with Lin Tianfeng and others, waiting for Lin Shilu.
After more than ten rests, Lin Shilu walked out, stood in front of several people, and looked at them repeatedly.
Then, he nodded with satisfaction and said;
“Let’s go!”
Lin Shilu took the lead and walked in front, followed by Lin Tianming and three others.
After leaving the small courtyard, the four of them walked through the streets and walked towards the entrance of Fangshi.
With the holding of the Fangshi Competition, the flow of people in Luoyunfang City has increased significantly. Many monks who like to watch the excitement have left the Fangshi and gathered outside the Luoyun Mountains to the west.
Lin Shilu and the others walked out of the entrance of Fangshi and launched their flying swords, which immediately attracted the attention of a large number of monks.
“It’s Senior Lin from the Lin family!”
...
Several qi-training monks exclaimed, causing a large number of monks to turn their attention to Lin Tianming and the others.
Lin Shilu ignored it and flew directly to the west with a few people, quickly disappearing from sight.
After an hour of hard work, Lin Tianming and others crossed a vast plain and appeared on a mountain several hundred feet high.
Standing in the air, Lin Tianming looked at the gathering place here.
The entire hill is not high, and is quite conspicuous in the vast plains. A platform of nearly 100 acres on the top of the mountain is actually a natural dojo. There are hundreds of Qi Refining monks waiting at the foot of the mountain to watch the excitement.
On the platform, the Luo family and the Wu family have arrived in advance, and several monks from the Qi Refining family are also watching the battle on the platform.
Landing to a corner of the square with a few people, the monks led by the Luo family and the Wu family greeted Lin Shilu with a smile.
Lin Shilu also returned the gifts one by one, looking quite generous and decent.
After a while, four people with swords flew from the sky and landed not far from the Lin family. The leader was Sun Dingfeng, who had gone to Qingzhu Mountain to seek an alliance.
Before landing, Sun Dingfeng's hearty laughter came.
"Haha, I didn't expect that several fellow Taoists had already arrived before me. I'm so polite!"
Lin Shilu and the other foundation-building monks returned the greetings one after another, very politely.
After greeting each other, they didn’t say anything more. They each sat aside and closed their eyes to relax.
As the Sun family has arrived, four of the five major families have arrived, and only the Jin family has not yet arrived.
After a cup of tea, the number of monks who came to watch the fun at the foot of the mountain has reached more than two hundred.
With a commotion in the crowd, several monks shouted to the sky:
"The Jin family is here, and the leader is actually senior Jin Zhisong!"
Hearing the man's exclamation, a large number of monks looked up to the sky with longing expressions.
Jin Zhisong and his clan members landed opposite the Lin family members, with a calm face as he greeted several people.
Since they didn't completely break their skin, Lin Shilu and Sun Dingfeng didn't show any unusual expressions. They smiled and returned the favor, but they were not very enthusiastic.
Jin Zhisong didn’t care either. He had obviously expected it. The tacit understanding between the two people felt strange.
Seeing everyone gathered, the foundation-building monks from the five major families each took out a spiritual sword of different colors and threw it into the sky, and soon their positions changed at will.
The five foundation-building monks grabbed each other from the air and retrieved a spiritual sword.
Lin Shilu caught a cyan spiritual sword, which was surrounded by strong wood-attribute spiritual power, which was quite strange.
According to Lin Shilu, these five spiritual swords with different attributes were made by a third-level weapon trainer hundreds of years ago. They are not as good as the spiritual weapons, but they have special effects and can leave special marks. After each competition, when the five major families redistribute the spiritual swords, they are not allowed to catch the last spiritual sword. Therefore, no matter what, within two hundred years, Impossible times.
After Lin Shilu handed the spirit sword to Lin Tianming, the five major families also handed over the spirit sword to the younger generations.
Then, Jin Zhisong said:
"Fellow Taoists, now that the spirit swords have been distributed, can we start?"
Seeing that Lin Shilu and others were not there Opinion, Jin Zhisong said:
"I won't go into details about the rules of the city competition. Your elders have already told you that during the competition, life and death are determined by destiny. We will gather here in one month and the ranking will be determined by points!"
Finished! , Jin Zhisong ordered Jin Qishan behind him:
"Go!"
Jin Zhisong and the other three did not hesitate. After saluting, they directly rose up with their swords and flew towards the mountains to the west.
Seeing that the Jin family had already left, and the other families had no intention of staying, the elders leading the team gave a few instructions and then each chose a direction to leave.
Lin Shilu did not wait any longer and gave Lin Tianming a few instructions.
Lin Tianming and the others clasped their fists in salute, jumped on the flying swords, and flew towards the mountains to the west.
