Early in the morning, Ling Yunpo carried a broom and went out to sweep the floor.
Although it is the end of winter now, the temperature in Shushan has gradually warmed up, and there is less rain and snow.
Ling Yunpo was very free and cleaned the temple inside and out.
Suddenly, a sword light was seen descending from outside to the ground. It was An Zhisu who had returned from the mountain to buy wine.
"Junior brother!" An Zhisu showed a happy expression, lifted up her skirt, ran over hurriedly, and said, "I have great news..."
"The Baiyujing competition, right?" Ling Yunpo said calmly, sweeping the floor non-stop.
"How do you know?" An Zhisu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "This time, the Baiyujing competition will determine..."
"The top twelve seats." Ling Yunpo said again.
"That's right." An Zhisu said seriously, "I heard that the higher-ups have given the order that we at Shushan must take over at least half of it."
"Take half?" Ling Yunpo burst out laughing. He was really arrogant.
Putting aside other things, Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian from Kunlun Sect, and Luo Yan from Penglai Sect, these three are not only hard to beat in their own sects, but even if they were to face off against Shushan, Lin Duanshan and his group would definitely not be able to win.
Qiu Luo and the other person didn't say anything, my vest.
Xu Yinglian's advantage lies in the Great Light Fire plus the Phoenix bloodline. Both its rank and power are ridiculously high, and cannot be resisted without extremely powerful Taoist magic.
However, most of the Shushan sword immortals studied swordsmanship, and very few of them also practiced Taoism.
When you have to use Taoist magic, you can only use sword magic as a substitute.
Unfortunately, even if it is the same Taoist method, if it is sealed on a sword, the true energy consumption will be much higher than if it is studied by oneself - because there is a layer of flying sword to activate it, the true energy loss rate will be very high.
Therefore, when the Shushan sword immortal faces the Kunlun cultivator, if he cannot kill the opponent quickly, it will often turn into a battle of exhaustion of true energy, and eventually he will be worn out and defeated.
Xu Yinglian has the blood of the Phoenix and has practiced the "Nine Heavens Pure Land Realm Mantra", so the strength of his true energy is ridiculously high.
In addition to taking various rare secret medicines of the Purple Palace, such as the Golden Mercury Dan Hua Liquid, the Ten Thousand Years Ice Essence, the Yangxia Zhuming Pill, and the Nine-Transformation Zhufeng Pill, the Purple Palace has now become the Jade Palace, and the speed of true essence recovery is frighteningly high.
The monks outside the sect respectfully called her "Phoenix Fairy", and the monks in Kunlun called her "Little Qiu Changtian". It was not impossible to defeat her, but to kill her quickly... even Qiu Changtian couldn't do it.
Unable to kill quickly, and having to fight a protracted battle, with Xu Yinglian's true energy strength and her unyielding temperament and perseverance, the battle will only be dragged into the rhythm she is most familiar with.
Therefore, it means that among the twelve cities of Baiyujing, three seats have been reserved by Qiu Changtian, Xu Yinglian and Luo Yan.
If Shi Liuli had made adequate preparations before the competition, it would not be impossible for her to make it into the top 12 with her Taiwei Star Sand and Nandou Galaxy secret techniques.
But when it comes to "possibility", we have to take into account the favor of heaven on her. If this young lady really did something before the game and manipulated her fate, who could withstand it?
Ling Yunpo tentatively believed that as long as Shi Liuli really wanted to fight for it, there would be a place for her in the twelve seats.
In other words, on the surface it is a fight for six seats out of twelve, but in reality Shushan is fighting for six seats out of eight.
There will definitely be no problem for me and Senior Sister An. The difficulty lies in whether Lin Duanshan and the others can successfully enter the top twelve.
Let's not talk about Penglai for now. In Kunlun, Qiu Changtian's brothers and sisters were all the top disciples of their generation, taught by the headmaster himself, and practiced the "Nine Heavens Pure Land Realm Mantra", and their true essence was also ridiculously strong.
It can only be said that there is hope for Lin Duanshan and others to compete with them in the competition, but the difficulty is not small.
Ling Yunpo carefully recalled and thought about the matter, weighing the pros and cons. An Zhisu stood quietly beside him, not saying a word to disturb his thoughts.
But not long after, three sword lights appeared in the distance and arrived at the top of Qingluo Peak one after another. They were Lin Duanshan, Duan Fenhai and Guan Shanyue.
“Junior Brother Ling!” Lin Duanshan greeted from a distance, “Did you know that the Baiyujing Competition will be held soon…”
Before he could finish his words, An Zhisu glared at him, signaling him to shut up and not disturb Ling Yunpo's train of thought.
Lin Duanshan was also a good-tempered person. After being glared at by An Zhisu, he immediately smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
However, Ling Yunpo had already woken up. He looked up at Lin Duanshan and the others, bowed and said:
"Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother Duan, Senior Sister Guan."
"Hey! It's fine at other times." Guan Shanyue said jokingly, "This time I came before Duan Fenhai, why am I still the last one in the order of greeting?"
"Senior Sister Guan, you're joking." Ling Yunpo's expression remained unchanged, "The one in front is closeness, and the one in the back is respect."
"Oh?" Duan Fenhai also laughed, "Then I'm in the middle, so I'm neither close nor respectful?"
"No." Ling Yunpo smiled slightly, "Senior Brother Duan is magnanimous."
As a result, everyone was happy and admired Ling Yunpo's increasingly sophisticated social skills even more.
Getting back to the point, the reason why the five people gathered again at Qingluo Peak was naturally to discuss the Baiyujing competition.
Needless to say, Lin Duanshan has always had a close relationship with An Zhisu and Ling Yunpo, and it is habitual for him to consult with them.
Duan Fenhai's opinion of Ling Yunpo completely changed after the last time in the Giant Tree Secret Realm, because Ling Yunpo took the initiative to offer to stay behind to cover the retreat and fight against the crazy Taoist Daoye together with Senior Sister An.
This time, he came not only to discuss the Baiyujing competition, but also to bring the spiritual herbs picked in the Giant Tree Secret Realm last time and the corresponding purple mansion secret medicine to him and An Zhisu.
As for Guan Shanyue... she has always done things casually, but in hindsight it seems that there are some clues behind her actions. In short, it is better not to worry about her motives.
"The harvest from the last Giant Tree Secret Realm, a variety of Purple Mansion Secret Medicines, are all here after they are refined." Duan Fenhai took out two storage bags and handed them over. "If we divide them equally, the secret medicines that each person gets can improve their cultivation by about ten years."
"I have discussed this with Junior Brother Sima. You two stayed behind to fight to the death, so we will give you half of the money to make up for it. That is, each of you will have fifteen years of secret medicine. How do you think?"
"Senior Brother Duan is quite generous." Ling Yunpo took the bag with a smile. He neither expressed any objection nor carefully checked the pills inside.
Although the two of them took the initiative to stay behind to cover their retreat, the information about the location of the secret realm was provided by Sima Changyan. It is actually difficult to make a clear contribution if we really want to talk about their contribution... We can only say that the former is more important, but it is difficult to quantify how much more important it is.
Duan Fenhai and Sima Changyan each gave up five years of Huafu cultivation, which was reasonable. Ling Yunpo didn't want to haggle over the number of years, and An Zhisu naturally didn't care.
After putting away the storage bag, Duan Fenhai said seriously:
"Regarding the upcoming Baiyujing competition, Perry's goal is to take half of the top twelve seats."
"If you can make it into the top six, you're guaranteed to get a Vermillion Pill!"
Zhu Sui Dan... Ling Yunpo was a little dumbfounded.
Because of this thing, the last time Qiu Changtian broke the Jiejiao sword formation outside Penglai Island, the Chisong Immortal of Kunlun had already rewarded him with one.
He has already eaten!
