Chapter 111 Back to the Top (Subscription Request)

The Taixu Taoist disciples who were watching the battle could never have imagined that Hao Songqing, who was so powerful before, would die so quickly.

A seventeen-year-old genius who is ranked fourth on the "Heavenly Prodigy List·Earthly Prodigy List" and is in the third-grade Tianhe realm.

He was killed so easily by Chen Yi with just one sword?
The disciples from various peaks looked at Hao Songqing, whose head and body were separated, in disbelief. The word "surprise" was not enough to describe their feelings at the moment.

Originally in their minds, their fellow disciple Chen Yi could only be regarded as "a former top genius."

After all, he hadn't made any progress in swordsmanship for ten years, and his ranking on the "Heavenly Pride List·Earthly Pride List" had been falling again and again.

No matter in terms of cultivation, sword realm, or age and talent, he cannot compare with the new genius.

The disciples watching the scene just realized how ridiculous their previous thoughts were.

It turned out that it was not that Chen Yi’s strength had not improved, but that he did not care about the so-called “Heavenly Pride List·Earthly Pride List” ranking at all.

Until this moment, some disciples who already had confidence in Chen Yi, especially the senior sisters on Danfeng Mountain, cheered completely.

"Brother Chen Yi, you really didn't let me down."

"I said he has been hiding his strength, but you senior sisters still don't believe it."

"What a powerful junior brother! I like him so much. If I could be with him..."

"dream!"

A smile appeared on the face of the flower fairy in the crowd, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on Chen Yi in the field.

In addition to being happy for Chen Yi's improvement in cultivation, he was more relaxed physically and mentally because he no longer had to worry about his safety.

Du Yanqing and Wang Yongnian were even more excited and cheered.

"Brother Yi, that's awesome!"

"I know that with Brother Yi'er's strength, even the fourth-ranked genius is not worthy of competing with him!"

Ning Xue also breathed a sigh of relief. While feeling relieved, she couldn't help but look at Chen Yi with some anger.
"Blame" him for not saying anything before and making her worry.

Xie Changle also laughed out loud, and said with great joy:
"It turns out that Junior Brother Chen's swordsmanship is so powerful. No wonder he was not worried about the challenge from the genius of Yuhua Xianmen before."

"Master, did you know this a long time ago?"

As he spoke, he also looked at Li Qingzhou, not caring at all that the headmaster of the Yuhua Immortal Sect was still present not far away.

"The sword heart is clear!?"

At this time, Ye Ningxiu had already recognized the realm of Chen Yi's sword. Hearing the cheers of the surrounding Taixu Dao Sect disciples, his face became extremely ugly.

He looked at Hao Songqing, whose head and body were separated in the martial arts arena, and then looked at Chen Yi, his eyes full of murderous intent.

He raised his hands subconsciously, and his fingers trembled slightly.

It is not difficult to see his intention from that action - he wants to make a hand gesture and perform the "divine descent technique"!
But soon, Ye Ningxiu paused and forcibly suppressed the murderous intent in his heart.

He looked at Li Qingzhou beside him and forced a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Junior Brother Qingzhou has trained a good disciple."

"At such a young age, your swordsmanship has already reached the realm of 'Sword Heart Enlightenment'. In the future, you will definitely become a major pillar of our human race."

Li Qingzhou gave him a meaningful look and said calmly, "Brother, you are too kind."

He had already noticed Ye Ningxiu's previous gestures, so he didn't feel surprised at all and was ready to take action.

After all, judging from Yuhua Xianmen's recent performance, it is not difficult to see that they are no longer satisfied with the third place in the Dao Sect.

If there is a chance, he believes that with Ye Ningxiu's character, he will definitely take action against Chen Yi or other Taixu Dao Sect geniuses.

Li Qingzhou knew this very well.

If it were him, after the friction between Yuhua Xianmen and Taixu Dao Sect intensified, he would not miss the opportunity to kill the genius of Yuhua Xianmen.

"Some accidents occurred during this competition. I hope Senior Brother Ye can forgive me."

Ye Ningxiu nodded, walked into the martial arts arena and looked at Chen Yi.

"My nephew's talent in swordsmanship is truly amazing, but it's a pity."

"Uncle Master, what are you regretting?" Chen Yi raised his eyebrows and asked.

"It's a pity that my nephew's strength was not so strong that time in Jiangnan Prefecture, otherwise my son Ye Lin should have survived."

Chen Yi looked at him with a strange look in his eyes. Was he serious?

If he had the strength he has now ten years ago, Ye Lin would have died faster and more miserably.

At this time, Ye Ningxiu looked at Hao Songqing's body again, sighed and said: "My disciple died at the hands of his nephew, which is a worthy death."

As he said this, he waved his hand to collect Hao Songqing's body, and did not forget to comfort him: "Nephew Chen, don't mind it."

Seeing this, Chen Yi knew that Ye Ningxiu had no intention of avenging his disciple, so he put away the Spring Rain Sword and said with a smile, "Of course."

"But if I die in the fighting arena, I believe my master will not be like my uncle and still be able to laugh."

The smile on Ye Ningxiu's face froze for a moment, then he started laughing again.

"My nephew is joking."

A smiling tiger, very cunning!
Chen Yi gave Ye Ningxiu such an evaluation in his heart.

After all, a person who can still smile and praise his opponent after the death of his direct disciple, this ability to endure is something that not ordinary people can match.

Not long after, Ye Ningxiu said goodbye to Li Qingzhou and flew straight out of the mountain like the wind.

Even though Li Qingzhou repeatedly invited him to stay a little longer, he refused and even said that he would come to visit again next time he had the chance.

Seeing this, the disciples from various peaks of Taixu Taoist Sect cheered again and looked at Chen Yi eagerly.

Especially the senior sisters on Danfeng Mountain, they seemed to want to melt him with their eyes.

"I really hope that Junior Brother Chen Yi is my disciple at Danfeng Mountain."

"Senior sister, you're overthinking. If Senior Brother Chen becomes an alchemist, it will only waste his talent for swordsmanship."

"It's also..."

The Flower Fairy listened to the praises of Chen Yi from the senior sisters around her and slowly walked towards Danfeng Mountain.

"Sister, Senior Brother Chen's sword is a bit scary." Hua Yourong said in a low voice.

"That's the way of the sword," Fairy Flower held her hand and comforted her, "If you're afraid in the future, just stay in the sect."

"Uh-huh."

Hua Yourong thought of the sword she had seen before, especially the scene of the head flying up, and nodded with a pale face.

She doesn't want to kill, nor does she want to be killed.

It would be more suitable for her to stay in the alchemy room and make pills.

……

Soon, the disciples from various peaks gradually dispersed, and Wangdu Peak returned to peace again.

Chen Yi and others were also brought back to Jianfeng Mountain by Li Qingzhou.

Li Qingzhou signaled to the others to practice on their own and took Chen Yi to the Taoist temple in the back mountain.

"When did you break through to the Spiritual Acupoint Realm?"

"A few days ago," Chen Yi had expected this in his heart, and said with a smile: "It was all thanks to the Lingyuan Pill that Master gave me."

He had taken a Lingyuan Pill before, and the effect was extraordinary.

Even if his cultivation has reached the fourth level of Lingqiao Realm, after taking it, he can increase his Xuan Gang Qi by nearly 30%.

Li Qingzhou suddenly realized and said, "The pills are just external things. When you reach the spiritual realm, remember to accumulate more."

“Although the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Technique can only cultivate nine spiritual orifices, there is a way to increase it.”

In fact, he also felt a little regretful in his heart, regretting that Chen Yi did not choose the Supreme Demon Subduing Art at the beginning.

Otherwise, with the quality of the Supreme Demon Subduing Art, it would be enough for Chen Yi to cultivate more than ten spiritual orifices.

Chen Yi was shocked and asked, "Master, do you have a solution?"

"There is a way, but it's difficult." Li Qingzhou thought for a moment and said:
"The Nine-Turn Profound Gang Technique was created by the founder based on the four methods of Thunder and Lightning among the Eight Methods of the Great Void."

"If we can integrate the other four methods, perhaps we can improve the quality of the technique."

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Master, isn't this equivalent to practicing the Eight Methods of Taixu?"

"There are some differences." Li Qingzhou shook his head without further explanation, and said, "I will discuss this matter with Senior Brother Xiao first."

After all, the Eight Methods of Taixu are the core of the Taixu Dao inheritance. Even some true disciples cannot learn it all, let alone Chen Yi, a disciple of Jianfeng Mountain.

Chen Yi guessed that this would be the case and was not surprised.

After a moment of silence, Li Qingzhou looked at him and said seriously, "Since your cultivation has reached the fourth level of spiritual enlightenment, I can tell you something."

Chen Yi's heart moved, and he asked, "About the Taizhou Mountain battlefield?"

Li Qingzhou nodded and his expression became more serious.

"The Taizhou Mountain battlefield is of great importance. You must not reveal anything I say next to anyone."

"Disciple understands." Chen Yi nodded.

Seeing this, Li Qingzhou began to talk about the things related to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield.

"The Taizhou Mountain battlefield is not actually a real battlefield, but a world similar to the Tianyuan Continent."

"There are countless rare treasures and secret manuals there, which can help improve your cultivation more easily."

It turns out that the first person to discover the Taizhou Mountain battlefield was during the dark period before the establishment of the Wei Dynasty.

At the beginning, it was called "Taizhou Mountain World".

Later, because too many people died in the fighting with demons there, it was renamed "Taizhou Mountain Battlefield".

Hearing this, Chen Yi couldn't help but ask: "Master, are you saying that the flourishing inheritance before the Wei Dynasty was due to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield?"

Li Qingzhou nodded, looking somewhat emotional.

"If our ancestors had not discovered the battlefield of Mount Taizhou and obtained the martial arts techniques from there, which enabled them to practice and improve themselves, I'm afraid that our human race would still be enslaved by demons."

"So you understand how important the Taizhou Mountain battlefield is to us. It is a place of hope."

"Of course, it is also an extremely dangerous place..."

As Li Qingzhou narrated, Chen Yi gradually understood the origin of the Taizhou Mountain battlefield and the current situation. "Currently, humans and demons are in opposition. The two sides have been fighting for thousands of years, and both have suffered casualties."

"This is also the reason why we go to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield from time to time."

At this point, Li Qingzhou paused, looked at him and said: "When your cultivation reaches the third-grade Tianhe realm, you will be qualified to go there."

"Then you will understand that many of the rules on the Tianyuan Continent are deeply connected to that place."

"But you don't have to think too much now. Even if you have reached the required level, you won't be called up immediately."

Chen Yi nodded and asked, "Do you want me to wait until the selection of the younger generation in Tianyuan Continent?"

"Yes."

Li Qingzhou nodded slightly, with some hesitation on his face. After a moment of silence, he sighed.

"If possible, I don't want you to participate in that selection."

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, looking at him suspiciously, but did not ask.

He knew that Li Qingzhou must have his reasons for saying this.

"In fact, the selection is not only beneficial, it also involves a gambling fight between humans and demons."

As he spoke, Li Qingzhou told about the life-and-death fight that would take place among the younger generation on the battlefield of Taizhou Mountain ten years later.

Chen Yi opened his mouth and said, "You mean, everyone who passes the subsequent selection must participate?"

The first person he thought of was not himself, but Lin Xueru, Flower Fairy and Xiao Xuanzhen.

If they also get a place, wouldn't they also have to go to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield to fight the monsters?

"Well," Li Qingzhou sighed, "This is why I don't want you to show off too much."

There are too many unexpected events in a life-and-death fight.

It would be better to let Chen Yi go to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield step by step, so that he has a greater chance of growing.

"Thank you, Master, for telling me this." Chen Yi bowed solemnly.

It would have been fine if he didn't know this before, but now that he knew about the gambling fight, he felt it necessary to remind the little girl and the flower fairy.

As for Xiao Xuanzhen, as the daughter of Xiao Huang, she probably doesn't need any further reminders from him.

"It doesn't matter. Even if I don't tell you, you will know it soon." Li Qingzhou waved his hand.

Not to mention the recent excitement in the martial arts world, once the matter of the demon ambushing and killing the genius is exposed, I believe the details of the gambling fight will spread.

"Go back and practice well. Remember not to slack off."

"Disciple, please remember this."

"Also, be prepared. The sect will make some arrangements for you in a while."

Chen Yi nodded, did not stay, turned around and left the back mountain.

It seems that he needs to pay attention to the training progress of the little girl and others. If necessary, it is better to let them withdraw from the selection.

When the Taoist temple became quiet, Li Qingzhou looked at the portrait in the main hall with a look of melancholy.

In fact, he did not tell Chen Yi the true situation of the Taizhou Mountain battlefield just now.

Firstly, the situation there is special, and before one reaches a certain level of strength, many secrets are not suitable for outsiders to know.

Secondly, Li Qingzhou could see that Chen Yi was a man who valued friendship and loyalty.

Even though he appears to be playing and happy on the surface, he is actually very delicate inside.

If he knew too many details, he might have other ideas and cause many troubles.

"If his swordsmanship can be further improved..."

Thinking of this, Li Qingzhou smiled bitterly.

It is not easy to reach the realm of swordsmanship.

Especially in a "barren" place like Tianyuan Continent, it is even more difficult.

Even he had to go to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield and advance to the supernatural power realm with the help of several adults.

“I hope he can keep moving forward!”

……

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

After a brief commotion, Taixu Dao Sect regained its peace.

Disciples from each peak are practicing skills and techniques to improve their martial arts as they did in the past.

Only in their spare time would they talk about the sect's small examination that had just ended and the competition among geniuses.

Either they praised Chen Yi's strength, or they ridiculed Yuhua Xianmen for "shooting itself in the foot."

By the time Lin Xueru and Xiao Xuanzhen came out of seclusion, it was already seven days after the fight.

"what?"

"You mean Brother Yi fought against the fourth-ranked genius on the Earth Ranking? What happened? He wasn't injured, right?"

Before Du Yanqing finished speaking, Lin Xueru's face became nervous.

Xiao Xuanzhen, who had known Chen Yi's strength for a long time, curled his lips and said, "His swordsmanship has already broken through to the realm of 'Sword Heart Clear'. It's strange that he would be injured."

Lin Xueru was stunned for a moment and looked at her suspiciously: "Really?"

She didn't ask how Xiao Xuanzhen knew about this, that wasn't important.

She only cares about whether her brother Yi's strength has improved.

"How could what my father said be false?" Xiao Xuanzhen said unhappily:

"Junior sister, that bad guy even hid it from you, you can't let him off easily this time."

"I'm glad Brother Yi is okay."

Lin Xueru obviously didn't take her words to heart and hurriedly urged Du Yanqing to continue.

She also wanted to hear Chen Yi's next fight.

Du Yanqing then described in vivid detail how Chen Yi fought with Hao Songqing and how he killed him with a single sword.

"You didn't see it. Many of my fellow disciples were dumbfounded at that time."

"They didn't think highly of Brother Yi before, but when they found out that he won the duel, their attitudes changed so quickly that it was like changing their faces."

Lin Xueru was beaming with joy, her beautiful face smiling brightly, not at all like the ethereal fairy in “The Ten Taoist Fairies”.

Like a girl next door, she only thinks about her lover.

In fact, since coming to Taixu Taoist Sect, her mood has rarely fluctuated because of herself.

Whether happy or unhappy, most of them are related to Chen Yi.

Of course, she is happy most of the time.

Xiao Xuanzhen couldn't help feeling a little annoyed as he watched the two of them singing the same tune.

Even though she already knew about Chen Yi's breakthrough in swordsmanship, she still felt a little unconvinced in her heart.

Now, hearing that Chen Yi was able to kill a genius from the third-grade Tianhe realm with one sword, her desire to win, which she had finally developed, was once again dampened.

Bad guy, bad guy, bad guy…

However, the more you care about something, the less likely the result will change.

A few days later, with the arrival of a new issue of "The Ranking of Prodigies and the Ranking of Earthly Pride", Xiao Xuan's mood became even worse.

"Bad guy, bad guy, bad guy..."

For a time, the name of "Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi once again resounded throughout the Wei Dynasty.

This time, not only did the disciples of the various peaks of Taixu Taoist Sect shut up, but those martial artists who had previously been pessimistic about Chen Yi also turned a deaf ear and dumb.

"'Little Sword Immortal' Chen Yi returns to number one on the Earth Ranking!"

"Hahaha, let's see if you still dare to say that he is just like everyone else?"

"I already knew that with that kid's talent in swordsmanship, he would definitely not fall behind others."

"Now you understand the old man's foresight, right?"

In the Youlai Inn in Jiangnan Prefecture, Li Song laughed and slammed the counter of the inn.

He pointed at the "Heavenly Pride Ranking·Earthly Pride Ranking" and shouted to the crowd of Jianghu people in the hall:

"At the age of sixteen, he broke through to the Sword Heart Enlightenment Realm and killed the third-grade genius Hao Songqing with one sword. I just want to ask who else is there?"

"Senior, please stop scolding me. I know I was wrong..."

Compared to other prefectures, Kyoto Prefecture is the most lively at this time.

The previously controversial strength comparison between "Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi and "Dakong Buddhist Son" has undergone a new change with the latest update of "Tianjiao Ranking·Di Ranking".

Chen Yi, who was originally lagging behind, instantly overwhelmed "Dakong Buddhist".

"Are you still calling now?"

"Scream, keep shouting!"

"Now, 'Little Sword Immortal' Chen Yi can kill a third-grade Tianjiao with one sword. Let me ask you, what is the record of 'Dakong Buddha'?"

"There are always some idiots who bring up the rankings of the Tianjiao List. Now shut up."

Those who turned to Buddha did keep their mouths shut.

But in his heart he was still muttering, saying that you idiots were using the "Tianjiao List" as proof and so on.

However, when everyone was discussing, they suddenly realized that the most miserable person was not the ups and downs of "Dakong Buddhist", but Hao Songqing who lost the fight and died tragically.

"Yuhua Xianmen has really shot itself in the foot this time. They originally wanted to take advantage of the reputation of 'Little Sword Immortal' to go further."

"I didn't expect it to be like an egg hitting a stone, breaking into pieces in an instant."

"What can I say..."
