After failing her nirvana, the Phoenix Empress opened her eyes to find herself reborn into a mortal girl in a world of declining magic. This girl was also the true daughter of a wealthy family, los...
Chapter 582 All parties are dispatched
"What? The foreigners are going to hold a competition right in front of our house?"
Inside the Heavenly Master's Mansion at Mount Longhu, contemporary Heavenly Master Zhang Xuanjun was drinking tea. Upon hearing the news reported by his disciple, he nearly choked on the tea he took.
The Taoist who usually looks serious now widened his eyes, his eyes full of doubt.
Didn’t the game just end?
Why another competition?
No, there must be a conspiracy!
"Master, look at this."
Ling Yan Zhenren handed over the phone, and on the screen was the announcement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Zhang Xuanjun squinted his eyes and looked for a long time, then suddenly slammed the table and stood up: "Great! Very good! Last time in Country E, I didn't go to join in the fun because I was worried about the international impact. This time, I'm at my doorstep, and I must let those foreign devils see how powerful we practitioners are!"
"Master, are we going to participate too?"
Master Ling Yan hesitated for a moment and asked.
“Why not join?”
Zhang Xuanjun asked back.
"Is there any need to ask this? Those people came with bad intentions and just wanted to find out our background. If we go to the competition, won't that give them an opportunity?"
Master Ling Yan said as a matter of course.
"Humph! Do you really think that practicing is that easy?"
Zhang Xuanjun snorted coldly and looked outside the hall with disdainful eyes.
"Not to mention it's just a competition, even if you put the training method in front of them, they may not be able to learn it."
"Well, that's true."
Ling Yan Zhenren was reminded by his master's words and came back to his senses.
"In that case, I will personally lead the team to participate!"
"you?"
Zhang Xuanjun glanced at him and said disdainfully, "How old are you? You are competing on the same stage with a group of young people. You are not ashamed, but I am ashamed."
Ling Yan Zhenren, who just celebrated his 40th birthday: "..."
At the same time, in the Zhenwu Hall of Wudang Mountain.
As one of the four major ancestral temples of Taoism, Wudang Mountain has always been known for its "pure cultivation and inaction" and rarely participates in worldly affairs.
But at this moment, in the Zhenwu Hall, a group of elders surrounded the head monk, Qingyun Zhenren, and vied with each other to recommend themselves.
"I am the Great Elder. I should be the one leading the team in this competition!"
The great elder Xuan Fengzi said without hesitation.
"Big Brother, what you said is wrong!"
The second elder Xuan Chengzi argued, "My disciple Mingxin is the most outstanding talent of this generation of Wudang. If he participates in the competition, I should lead the team!"
"You! Humph!"
Xuan Fengzi flicked his sleeves and said without showing any weakness: "My disciple Mingyue is also a rare genius and can also participate in the competition!"
Xuan Chengzi didn't want to say anything bad about his nephew, he just looked at his eldest senior brother.
That look seemed to be saying, do you have any idea at all?
Xuan Fengzi was so angry and embarrassed by his look that he rolled up his sleeves and the two of them almost started a fight.
"Big Brother and Second Brother, please stop fighting."
The third elder, Xuan Shenzi, had cold sweat on his forehead and stood between the two men to try to stop the fight.
"What should we do? We just need to follow the instructions of our head brother. How can we start a fight?!"
The other elders also stepped forward, each holding one, and separated the two.
Master Qingyun looked at the noisy crowd with a dark face, slammed the table and shouted, "Stop arguing!
Last time, Mr. Huo brought glory to the country, this time it’s the turn of us old guys to take action.
Let the Seven Zhenwu disciples prepare, especially Mingxuan. Has his Tai Chi sword reached the level of 'Sword Light Differentiation'?"
"But Junior Brother Mingxuan is in seclusion..."
"What are you closing up for?"
Qingyun Zhenren suddenly raised his voice and said, "If you don't contribute when the country needs you, what's the point of cultivating immortality?"
Maoshan.
The Maoshan Sect has been a holy place for exorcising evil spirits since ancient times, and is good at talismans, spells, and ghost magic.
This time, they sent out Yu Que, the most powerful disciple of the younger generation in the sect.
This Yuque is a crazy cultivator, and he does not have a prominent reputation among the Maoshan disciples.
Although this person is very young, he has already mastered high-level talismans such as the "Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman" and the "Three Pure Ones Edict". He can even summon spiritual officials to protect him in a short period of time, and his combat power is extremely strong.
"Yuque, when you get to the imperial capital, go to the Huo family to find your junior brother Qingxin. Be smart, maybe he can give you some pointers. Do you understand?"
Xuan Lingzi said earnestly.
The young Taoist priest Yuque looked puzzled: "Isn't the master going to the imperial capital?"
It sounded like he was the only one going to the imperial capital.
"Go ahead. Why wouldn't I go for this chance to show off my skills?"
Xuan Lingzi said as if it was a matter of course.
"Then the headmaster won't go to the Huo family?"
Yuque became even more confused.
"cough!"
Xuan Lingzi coughed lightly and said uncomfortably, "I have other things to do, so I won't go to the Huo family for now. I'll find time to visit Fellow Daoist Huo when I'm free."
The last time I went to the Huo family, their Maoshan had already suffered heavy losses.
If you go a few more times, all your belongings will be emptied out.
But I definitely can't tell these to my disciples. I'll first coax him to go to the Huo family to take advantage of him. Well, I'll visit Fellow Daoist Huo on his behalf.
Yu Que was relieved and said, "When we get to the imperial capital, I will go to visit Senior Huo and visit my junior brother."
Xuan Lingzi nodded in satisfaction, and then instructed: "In this competition, be ruthless if you can, and don't be too soft-hearted. You must know that if one more of them dies, you will have much less pressure in the future."
His eyes were deep, as if carrying some profound meaning.
"Master, rest assured. I will let them know that our Maoshan is not a small sect that only knows how to catch ghosts."
Yu Que nodded and said with a firm look in his eyes.
Similar scenes are constantly played out in various major sects.
The leader of Shushan directly opened the sword tomb that had been sealed for a hundred years, vowing to make the Shushan sword sect famous.
Even the Putuo Mountain in the South China Sea, which has always been secluded from the world, sent three nuns.
In addition to Taoism, major ancient martial arts families also sent their elites to participate in the war.
For example, the Qi family in Cangzhou, the Ye family in Ganzhou, the Tang family in Shuzhong, and the Xiao family in Guandong are all families with a history of more than hundreds of years.
Although these noble families appear to be just mortals on the surface, they actually practice ancient martial arts in secret, and some even retain unique skills such as body refining techniques, Yi Jin Jing, and Vajra Indestructible Body from ancient times.
Among them, Ye Zheng of the Ye family is the most eye-catching.
He is the strongest among the younger generation of the Ye family.
Three years later, he had already broken through to the late stage of foundation building, leaving the rest of the children from aristocratic families far behind.
It is said that he has practiced the Ye family's "Yi Jin Jing" to the ninth level, and his physical strength is comparable to that of a Jindan cultivator.
"In this competition, I want to let the whole world know that the real strong ones are not abroad, but on our land!"
On the day he stepped into the imperial capital, he looked at the tall city wall and said with a disdainful look.
Just as the Taoist sect and the ancient martial arts families were gearing up for battle, a mysterious force was also quietly gathering.
The demon tribe hiding deep in the Changbai Mountains, upon hearing that the competition is about to take place, are ready to make a move.
Among them, the four great immortals Hu, Huang, Chang and Mang are the most active.
