Chapter 411: The dispute between the great mountain masters, the title of the dragon master

The ancient nine realms, the great thousand worlds.

Over a long period of time, the ancient Nine Realms experienced countless wars and integrations.

Eventually, a situation of three sects, the Black Lotus Sect, the Great Thousand Mountains, and the Shita Cave, formed.

And these three sects occupied the three realms respectively.

Together they form the nine realms we have today.

However, there are not only these three sects in the Nine Realms.

There are still many small sects among them.

Although these small sects seem independent, they are actually governed by these three large sects.

If it is not possible to offer offerings regularly.

In the worst case, the sect will be destroyed.

The relationships among the Black Lotus Sect, Daqian Mountain, and Shiqie Cave are also very complicated.

For a long time, these three sects were in opposition to each other.

After all, even if it can't be said to be a life-and-death battle, there is definitely intrigue between them.

It is a complex relationship where if one sect falls into the water, the other two sects, even if they are just watching from the sidelines, all have good intentions.

However, the relationship between these three sects has now reached its peak in nearly ten thousand years.

A tacit understanding of some kind of offensive and defensive alliance has been reached.

This would have been unthinkable in the past.

However, these do not have much impact on most of the cultivators in the ancient nine realms.

Because their cultivation and identity are not enough for them to know the details.

However, amidst the series of major events, some monks still saw some clues from recent events.

For example, there is the mountain master in the Spirit Transformation Stage who has rarely died in the past thousands of years in Daqian Mountain.

Surprisingly, several of them died one after another within just one year.

This is simply impossible for others.

After all, in the Nine Realms of Ancient Times, those in the Spirit Transformation Stage are already well-deserved strongmen.

As long as it doesn't directly offend the Buddhists in the ancient domain.

Then they can come and go freely in the entire Nine Realms.

But even such powerful cultivators in the God Transformation Stage have died in such large numbers.

This is obviously a very bad signal.

This means that in some unknown place, a fierce battle is taking place from which even a venerable in the Spirit Transformation Stage can hardly protect himself.

If the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation knew this, they might think of how to protect themselves first.

But for the monks in the ancient nine realms.

The more intense the war, the better it is for them.

Because only when the positions above are vacated will they have the opportunity to go further.

For example, the positions of many mountain masters who fell this time.

It attracted many mountain owners in Daqian Mountain.

And because the master of the mountain corresponds to not only an identity, but also a kind of special inheritance.

Therefore, the selection of the mountain master is not as simple as imagined.

First of all, one must have at least the perfect cultivation level of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Secondly, one needs to have a Taoist tradition that is compatible with the master of the mountain.

Finally, you need to seize the only opportunity from other competitors.

Because even the conditions are so harsh.

With the Daqian Mountains covering the three realms, it is still possible to select a lot of people.

Because the positions of several mountain masters have already found suitable successors in advance.

Therefore, this time, the Daqianshan sect only released two positions of great mountain masters for the other mountain masters in the sect to compete for.

One is "Eagle" and the other is "Dragon".

The former can compete as long as they have an avian tradition.

As a result, there were as many as thirty mountain owners participating in the competition.

Although there are not many competitors for the latter, all the cultivators of the Jiao sect are extremely powerful.

It is a Taoist tradition with an extremely high lower limit and an extremely high upper limit.

Therefore, even though there are not many mountain masters competing for the title of 'Dragon Master' this time, there are only seven of them.

But it is what everyone is paying most attention to right now.

Daqian Mountain, our sect.

"Old Monster Li, you little snake actually have the guts to compete for the title of Dragon Lord. Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Do you have the qualifications?"

In a main hall of the sect, a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage started to make sarcastic remarks to the cultivator who had just joined the sect.

"If an old reptile like you can come, why can't I?"

"In other words, if even an old reptile like you thinks you are qualified to be called the Dragon Master, there is no reason why an ancient snake like me cannot be called the Dragon Master. After all, in terms of bloodline and tradition, I am much more suitable than you."

Upon hearing this, the mountain master, Red-haired Lizard, who had arrived at the hall early, immediately became angry.

He stood up, his iconic flames released around his body, and a large number of dark red scales appeared on his face.

His face also began to change, turning into a hideous lizard head.

The temperature in the hall began to rise continuously along with the flames unconsciously emitted by the red-maned lizard.

Regarding this, the mountain master at the door, Black Scaled Snake Li Yuan, did not hide anything.

Soon it turned into a monster with a human body and a snake tail.

A chilly aura was immediately released from its body, confronting the red-maned lizard's flames.

Faced with this tense situation, the other five mountain masters around not only did not try to stop it, but instead they all seemed to be enjoying the fun.

After all, they are the most powerful people in the Daqian Mountains today, except for the few mountain masters.

Few people can control them.

Besides, the selection hasn't started yet, so no matter what they do, it won't be considered out of line.

You have to know that there were more than just seven of them who were suitable candidates.

But why were there only seven of them? That was because some of the suitable successors had been eliminated early on.

If it weren't for the fact that within the Daqianshan sect, it would not be allowed to attack without permission, let alone kill fellow disciples easily.

They might have already started fighting.

After all, it is better than fighting for the unknown inheritance qualification.

Killing all other suitable successors and leaving only oneself is undoubtedly more in line with the style of the ancient monks.

Therefore, looking at the red-maned lizard and the black-scaled snake who were on the verge of a tense situation, the other five mountain masters were even thinking about whether to add fuel to the fire secretly.

It would be best if these two guys could just fight each other.

In this way, it is possible to eliminate two competitors at once, killing two birds with one stone.

But the red-maned lizard and the black-scaled snake are not fools.

They also knew that taking action now would do them more harm than good.

Therefore, after a brief confrontation, both of them were ready to put away their own magical powers and end this meaningless internal friction.

But at this moment, a cold voice came from behind the black-scaled snake.

"Get out of the way."

The black-scaled snake turned around and saw a strange male cultivator, with a white-haired girl with deer antlers on her head, suddenly appearing behind him.

Who is this guy? A new mountain master?

Looking at this strange monk, the black-scaled snake's brain began to work frantically.

Trying to find information about this strange mountain owner.

This meant that he did not give the other party a way out, but instead blocked the door.

In addition, he also displayed his demon body at this time, which was considered an active provocation to a certain extent.

So after seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time, the strange monk took action.

Ding! The crisp sound of a sword suddenly rang out in the hall.

No one even had time to see the true form of the sword.

Then I saw a cold light flash across the black-scaled snake's neck.

Phew!

The cold light easily cut off the black-scaled snake's throat and cut off its head on the spot.

However, cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage can basically achieve the level of immortality of their true spirit and indestructibility of their physical body.

The physical body no longer has any vital points in the absolute sense.

Therefore, even if its head was cut off, the black-scaled snake did not die.

His headless body instantly turned into a poisonous mist and moved to a relatively safe distance.

Then, the lonely snake head on the ground turned into a pool of venom in full view of everyone.

A brand new head soon grew on the black-scaled snake.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

However, perhaps because this new head was just born, not only was its skin pale, but the scales on it were also visibly softened.

The black-scaled snake stood in a corner of the hall, looking at the strange mountain master at the door with fear in his eyes.

Thinking back to the sword just now, the black-scaled snake still feels a lingering fear even now.

Because he didn't even see when the other party drew his sword.

In this way, his head was easily chopped off by the other party.

If the opponent's sword contains the sword intent of the great way.

Just this random sword strike would have seriously injured him even if he didn't die.

This guy... is definitely not an ordinary person.

In an instant, at the cost of a brain, the black-scaled snake made a judgment.

What made other mountain owners feel bored was.

The black-scaled snake was ready to fight with the red-maned lizard just because of a quarrel.

At this time, after having his head chopped off, he found a place to sit down without saying a word.

This is completely different from the previous situation where people would fight over a disagreement.

This made the other mountain owners around feel very bored.

After all, they thought that faced with such a great humiliation, the black-scaled snake might just explode and fight to the death with the strange monk.

But this guy is a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong. He sees that his opponent is not someone you can mess with.

I would rather lose face than suffer any loss.

I can only say that this guy must have some skills to be able to cultivate to his current level.

After expressing their feelings, the mountain masters in the hall secretly observed the strange monk who arrived last.

Who is this old monster who is hiding in seclusion?

Or is he some lucky person who suddenly had an encounter?

The mountain masters looked at Lu Chen who walked into the hall and began to think secretly.

Because of Gu Qie’s special way of cultivation.

As a result, it is not uncommon to jump a large level in a short period of time as long as the right conditions are met.

So they were not surprised to see a competitor emerge that they had never known about before.

Although it is not surprising, there is now a new competitor, and he looks like a tough guy who is not easy to deal with.

This is not good news for them.

The most important thing is that, apart from the sword just now, they knew nothing about Lu Chen.

It was almost unspoken that after the mountain masters looked at each other, they reached some kind of tacit understanding.

That is once we enter the formal selection.

Then they would work together to deal with Lu Chen, the strange cultivator, first.

After all, compared to those other familiar old rivals.

Lu Chen, this new opponent with unknown means, is undoubtedly more worrying.

And he showed no hidden hostility towards these mountain owners.

Lu Chen didn't care.

He brought the little white deer beside him and went directly to the center of the hall, where he chose a seat to sit down.

And because of Lu Chen's arrival, the originally bustling hall suddenly became quiet.

Everyone is calculating their own plans.

He was thinking about what to do next so that he could break out of the siege as much as possible and become the master of the mountain above millions of people.

Half a day later, no one arrived at the hall anymore.

This time, the list of mountain masters competing for the title of Dragon Lord is now complete.

As the door of the hall slowly closed.

A scantily clad woman appeared in a puff of smoke at the first seat deep in the hall.

"Oh, I thought the battle for the Dragon Lord this time would be more intense, but I never thought there would be only so few people."

"Yes, it seems that you are all very smart. You know how to deal with other competitors before the assessment begins. It's just that..."

As she spoke, the charming woman walked barefoot to the center of the hall and came in front of the red-haired lizard.

The woman made a sudden move, grabbed the red-maned lizard by the neck and lifted it up.

"...But didn't you check carefully whether there were any people I supported among the people you killed?"

"Tell me, you killed the candidate I arranged, how are you going to compensate me?"

The red-maned lizard, which had previously had a bad temper, was no longer as arrogant as before in the hands of this charming woman.

After all, the one who appeared in front of him was not a mere Nascent Soul stage mountain master like the Black Scale Snake.

But he is one of the few mountain masters and foxes in the Daqian Mountain sect.

If the other party wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.

In a hurry, the red-maned lizard said hurriedly: "I, I will follow the orders of the fox master in the future and die for him."

Hearing these words, the Fox Venerable, who had originally had a murderous and indifferent look on his face, now smiled sweetly.

"Oh, is that so?"

"In that case, I am not incapable of forgiving you."

As he spoke, Fox Venerable put it down, then turned to look at Lu Chen who was sitting next to him.

After all, among the eight people present, there were only the Red-maned Lizard and Lu Chen, and there was no other mountain master to protect them.

Although Lu Chen and the red-maned lizard may not be able to break through the siege in this selection and become the new mountain master.

Having one more subordinate at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage is also a good choice.

Especially at this time when there is a great opportunity that only comes once in a million years.

Therefore, the Fox Venerable did not bother to waste any more words, and came directly to Lu Chen, smiling and said: "What about you, little friend, do you want to bow down to me like him, or do you want to..."

The Fox Venerable raised his hand, and several fox tails appeared out of thin air, like a big net, covering Lu Chen's body.

"…are you ready to die right here?"

For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire hall became extremely depressing.

Everyone was looking at Lu Chen, curious about his choice.

However, even when facing a mountain lord in the Divine Transformation Stage, Lu Chen was not at all panicked and was surprisingly calm.

This is definitely wrong.

In the stunned eyes of everyone, a black sword dragon appeared directly behind Lu Chen and looked at Fox Venerable with fierce eyes.

"I choose the third option, killing you and... everyone here."

As he spoke, Lu Chen stood up.

There are many ways to obtain inheritance.

Lu Chen planned to choose the safest option.

As long as there is no one else, then I... am the only choice.
