Chapter 83: The Pride of the Peaks (I)

In the next month, Li Yan reduced the tasks in the spiritual garden and spent most of his time practicing martial arts and immortal arts. He knew that he had just reached the late seventh level of the Qi Condensation Stage. It would be impossible for him to reach the eighth level in a short period of time, unless he was given some rare treasures to take. However, he did not have the chance described in the books by the old scholar in the village, such as the scholar who failed the imperial examination and met a fox fairy in a dilapidated temple; the young man who fell off a cliff in a dangerous place and survived the disaster and found the immortal peach fruit below that could improve his martial arts by decades. These were all fabricated. There are immortals in this world, of course there are fox immortals, and there are many exotic fruits, but they are not available to people like him who stay in the sect and don't even go out of Xiaozhu Peak. Even if there are these exotic fruits in the sect, they are at least buried thousands of feet underground. Otherwise, with so many foundation building and golden elixir masters, and even a few Yuanying ancestors in the sect, their spiritual consciousness would have scanned every inch of the sect countless times, and taken away all the exotic fruits. As for the fox immortals, unless there are fourth-level fox immortals, there are many in this area that have been collected as spiritual objects.

One day, Li Yan was sitting cross-legged in the room, when suddenly the token on his waist glowed white. He slowly opened his eyes, his consciousness sank in, and after a moment he raised his head and said, "Is it about to begin?"

Laojun Peak, the top of the mountain rushed into the clouds and disappeared. There was a super large platform covering an area of ​​100,000 feet halfway up the mountain. Today, ten high platforms rose in the center of the platform. There was a distance of 20 miles between each two high platforms. The high platform was 3 feet high and about 50 miles long. The ten high platforms were arranged in a diamond shape, and there was an open space of hundreds of miles in the middle of the diamond shape. At the back and top of this large platform, there was a carved attic suspended in the air. More than a dozen rows of seats were waiting on the balcony in front of the attic. However, many handsome boys and girls were already shuttling between the seats on the balcony, or putting out fresh and rare fruits, or a small dish of light delicacies.

At this time, people were coming and going in the middle of the diamond-shaped area surrounded by ten high platforms. Looking carefully, although there were crowds of people, they were also in order. The space of 100 miles here was divided into five blocks, each of which was 20 miles wide.

Li Yan looked at the lively scene dozens of miles away, and couldn't help but look at his side. There were eleven people. There were only eleven people in their area. Even if each of them was nearly a thousand meters apart, they could only barely line up to the edge.

"Big Brother, why don't we lean to one side? There are too few people in Xiaozhu Peak. Standing in the middle of these dozens of miles, it's a bit too conspicuous." A crisp voice sounded beside Li Yan.

Lin Daqiao looked left and right, looked forward and backward, and felt like there was wind blowing from all directions.

"No, this is the dignity that a peak should have. What's the point of you leaning towards someone else's area? Do you want to leave Xiaozhu Peak?"

"No, no, senior brother, you can't put a big hat on me. I'm just suggesting it. If it doesn't work, I'll just stand here." Lin Daqiao was shocked when he heard this and waved his hand quickly.

>  Li Wuyi raised his lips and looked around. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Master, can't you be kind? Every time you come to participate in the major events of the whole sect, you always make us so conspicuous."

At this time, except for Li Yan and the three nephews who looked around curiously, the rest of Li Wuyi had serious expressions, some sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed, or whispering to each other.

This was the first time that Li Yan participated in such a big event of the sect. He was shocked when he first arrived. He had never seen such a magnificent scene. Ten high platforms stood and covered hundreds of miles. They stood in the middle of the diamond and looked as small as ants. The five major areas naturally corresponded to the five peaks. The disciples of each peak stood in their respective areas, building the foundation in front and condensing the qi in the back, neatly arranged. However, there were generally one or two thousand disciples in each peak. Although the twenty-mile area was wide, it was also lined up in a large area of ​​black, which was really imposing. And their eight brothers and three disciples stood alone in the middle, which was really quite eye-catching. Fortunately, the cultivators' eyesight and hearing were quite sharp. In this place without any obstructions, they could certainly see clearly for dozens of miles.

At this time, there was still a rosy glow in the sky, and then groups of people would descend. Obviously, the disciples of the other four peaks were still arriving one after another.

Just as Li Yan was looking around, Li Wuyi's gentle voice sounded, "My fellow brothers and sisters, listen to me." Everyone looked at Li Wuyi after hearing this.

"You also know that there are only 49 quotas in this foundation building competition. You just need to give it a try and do your best to earn a great opportunity, but there are a few people you must be on guard against. I know that some of you have made preparations in advance, or you have known many people from other peaks in these years, but I still have some past experiences for reference."

Everyone heard this, of course, knowing that this was the eldest brother's experience in the past few competitions to pass on experience to them, and mainly to give information to the new participants. Wen Xinliang and Lin Daqiao cast respectful and grateful eyes. Neither of them had participated in the secret realm picking trial. Except for Wen Xinliang, who had experience fighting against other peaks in the foundation building competition in previous years, Lin Daqiao had never had it. Even Miao Wangqing wanted to hear some, as she was a cultivator who was not good at fighting. On the other hand, it was also meant to explain to newcomers like Li Yan and the three nephews.

"Look at the Four Elephants Peak over there, there are three men and one woman in the front row," Li Wu said while looking to the left. He did not raise his hand to point, because the cultivators' senses are sharp, and even if he looked over there, he might be discovered by the other party.

From their angle, they can only see three areas because it is a diamond-shaped area, because the area of ​​Xiaozhu Peak is on one side of the diamond, and the five areas

are composed of four sides plus a center. The center is where the disciples of the Old Monarch Peak are located, so Li Yan and his friends can only see the two sides and the center of themselves, and the one diagonally opposite is blocked by the group of disciples of the Old Monarch Peak in the center.

Li Yan, like everyone else, followed Li Wuyi's gaze and looked towards the Four Elephants Peak on the left. The first three rows were Foundation Establishment disciples, about fifty people, in a triangular formation. At the front, there were three men and one woman standing there. One of the three men was tall and the other two was short. The tall man was extremely burly, with a broad face and thick ears, over ten feet tall, muscular, and short golden hair, each hair standing upright like a steel spike. Standing there, he looked like a golden statue of a god or Buddha.

The other two shorter people were obviously a pair of twin brothers, but they were also strong and powerful. At this time, they were looking around and pointing from time to time. The woman was about 20 years old, with creamy skin, a slim waist and a plump buttocks, and an outstanding figure. Her black hair was piled high. As if she felt someone was looking at her, she turned her head to look over here, then raised the corners of her cherry mouth, smiled slightly at Li Wuyi and the others, and turned her head away again. Her action also made the two twin brothers beside her turn their heads and grin at them. Li Wuyi also smiled and nodded. However, the big man who looked like a god seemed to have not seen it, and did not even turn his head.

Li Yan heard a cold snort from his side at this time, and looked up and saw that it was from the third brother. He didn't know whether it was directed at the big man or the other three.

Li Wuyi retracted his gaze and continued, "The yellow-haired man is named Gan Shi. He is in the late stage of foundation building and has great perfection. He has natural spiritual roots and possesses rare spiritual roots of earth and gold. He is the eldest brother of the Four Symbols Peak. He is good at both offense and defense. Generally, earth-type spiritual roots do not have gold-type offensive spiritual roots at the same time. They are mostly combined with wind, fire, wood, etc., but he is both offensive and defensive, and is proficient in combination attacks. If he can condense a golden elixir, he should be a candidate for the next leader of the Four Symbols Peak. He is good at attacking and defending formations, and has condensed the formations into himself. He can use the formations from head to toe to defend against the enemy. The formation follows the method, and the formation appears when the method comes out, and he can kill the enemy instantly. He is an extremely difficult person. You guys should be extra careful when you meet him." But there was another sentence in Li Wuyi's heart that he didn't say. Maybe only the second junior brother here could fight one or two of him, and the rest should hardly be his opponents, but he was afraid of hurting their spirit, so he didn't say it. He had fought with this person before, and in the end he won by suppressing his realm, and it was also an extremely difficult victory. However, this competition is in charge of the Jindan master, so no one will die. Let these junior brothers and sisters see it for themselves. It is also a rare opportunity for communication.

"Chu Weixiong and Chu Weili are twin brothers. They are in the late stage of foundation building. They are also earth and fire dual-element cultivators with natural spiritual roots. They are good at combining the famous Four Symbols Formation of the Four Symbols Peak. This formation can generally be laid by eighteen, thirty-six, seventy-two, one hundred and eight, three hundred and sixty, or seven hundred and twenty people to form the Locking Heaven Chain Four Symbols Formation. However, these two are geniuses in formation. They can be said to be the pride of this generation of formations. When they were at the eighth level of Qi Condensation, they were specially approved by the Grand Elder of the Four Symbols Peak to use the Four Symbols Formation.

After three years and seven months, they have refined the two-person Four Symbols Formation. Although there are many loopholes, it is also amazing. After decades of painstaking research, this two-person Four Symbols Formation has gradually taken shape. The two of them entered the Dao through formations and were promoted to the late stage of foundation building. It can be said that they were summoned by the heaven. It is said that the two of them can fight against seven or eight people of the same level together. Although they will compete separately in this competition, they must be very difficult to deal with with their formations. "

Everyone was silent after listening for a while, and Lian Yunchun did not speak. Although the Chu brothers were not as high as Gan Shi in realm and famous, the formations of these two were much higher than Gan Shi. Formation masters who entered the Dao through formations were very difficult to deal with. Unlike ordinary formation masters, he had low defense and weak body. He always needed masters to protect him when he set up formations, otherwise others might kill them with a surprise attack. These two brothers entered the Dao through formations. They did not set up formations for the sake of setting up formations, but formations were techniques, techniques were formations, and practicing skills was practicing formations. Generally, they could not be killed or worn out, and their opponents were exhausted and died. What's more, the best thing about the Wuliang Sect was poison, and their formations and poisons were integrated.

"As for that junior sister, her name is Wei Feng. She is at the peak of the middle stage of foundation building. She has a sharp sense of consciousness and is a cultivator of the earth and water elements. She is good at the magic poison formation. She can create a state with a wave of her hand. The poison gas in the state is crisscrossed. Some are colorless and tasteless, some are intoxicating, some are enchanting, and some are a dream to death. It is said that her magic formation has also been integrated with eleven kinds of poisons. It is said that she once tried to fight the Chu brothers and was almost defeated. However, she was only trapped in the formation of the two of them. The Chu brothers were not able to defeat her. This shows her ability. In addition to these four people, there are probably no less than five people in the Four Symbols Peak who are inferior to them."

After Li Wu finished speaking, except for Wei Chituo, Yun Chunqu, Miao Wangqing, and Gong Chenying who looked like they knew, the rest of the people were a little frightened. Even Wen Xinliang put away his usual lazy expression. Although he had gone through a foundation building competition and collected some information about the brothers from other peaks, it was not as comprehensive as what the eldest brother said. Li Yan looked curious, and Lin Daqiao was no longer as jumpy as before. He lowered his head and thought. Obviously, he was calculating how far he could go, but after thinking about it, he was still frustrated. Unless he couldn't meet them, he would have to admit defeat on the spot. In this way, it would be a gamble on luck.

Li Wuyi paused, and without waiting for them to discuss, he turned his gaze to the right. That was the area where the Spirit Insect Peak was located, and it was also the most powerful and majestic area. Various monsters stood in every corner, and everyone was separated from others by a distance. Even so, the roars and hisses were continuous, and the owners of those monsters had a leisurely expression, and did not stop the provocation of their monster companions. It was not that they could not stop it, but this was not the opening time of the competition. It was the time for them to show their style, and they were happy to see the monsters glaring at each other and roaring.

But after Li Wuyi looked at it for a few times, it seemed that he did not find the person he was looking for. Just as he was about to look away, several rays of light came from the horizon.
