The Shushan Immortal Sword List is actually not set up by the official.

The official term is "Shushan Competition Results", and its purpose is to award rewards based on the results.

However, every time the ranking results come out, they will quickly spread to all the peaks of Shushan, and everyone will judge the strength of the sword immortal based on the list.

For example, the three strongest men of Shushan, Lin Duanshan, Duan Fenhai, and Guan Shanyue, got the title of "strong men" and were talked about by everyone because they have been in the top four of the list for many years without any change.

As for the top-ranked Frost Sword Fairy, people generally don't mention her name.

To be honest, she is neither called "Frost Sword Fairy" nor "An Zhisu", but "Grass-Cutting Sword Fairy". The implication is "she is the knife and I am the leek", they are no longer the same biological species, so there is naturally no point in comparing them.

Now, Ling Yunpo has risen strongly, and with the realm of Xisui Stage, he has reached the second place, and ruthlessly defeated Duan Fenhai and Lin Duanshan, which naturally caused a sensation in the Shushan peaks.

At first, no one remembered his name, so they called him "Little Grass Mower" to distinguish him from "Grass Mower Sword Immortal".

Before he even got used to it, Jin Gangfeng spread the word that his senior brother Lin Duanshan commented that the other party had "the demeanor of a gentleman."

Cuizhu Peak was not to be outdone, saying that Senior Sister Guan Shanyue had also spoken, "Ling Poyun has the qualities of a strong man."

The former can also be considered as Lin Duanshan losing to a junior at the Marrow Washing Stage and feeling embarrassed, so he praised the other party to avoid losing face.

The latter caused a small wave of public opinion, because Guan Shanyue's remarks meant that she did not intend to challenge Ling Yunpo in the next seat challenge.

The meaning conveyed by these two people is obviously "he is on the same level as us."

When Duan Fenhai, the senior brother of Yulong Peak, also said that he "looks forward to the next competition with him", the disciples of Shushan gradually reached a consensus: that the usual three strong men have become the strong four.

It wasn't that the big grass-mowing sword immortal brought out a small grass-mowing sword immortal, but a Shushan disciple became one of the top four.

The former carries a derogatory and threatening connotation, but the latter has a normal meaning. It also indicates that Ling Yunpo himself has gotten rid of the influence of An Zhisu's bad reputation and has begun to enter the public eye of Shushan with a relatively positive impression.

"Breaking mountains and splitting seas, shattering moons and breaking clouds", the names of the four great swordsmen began to spread, leaving many people confused and thinking that one of the four great warriors was called "Ling Poyun"...

Let's not talk about the small talk for now. Anyway, the drawing of lots has ended. The Grass-Mowing Sword Immortal is first, the Cloud-Breaking Sword Immortal is second, and as for the three people, Broken Mountains, Split Seas, and Shattered Moon, they didn't even make it into the top ten.

Therefore, everyone began to look forward to these three strong men, who would launch a blatant attack in the seat challenge session, and fight with Poyun Sword Immortal for the top five seats in a bloody battle.

As expected, as soon as the seat challenge began, Duan Fenhai took the lead in designating Sima Changyan, the third place in the competition, to duel with him.

Sima Changyan tried his best to hold on, but was soon defeated in swordsmanship, and neither side even used Taoist magic.

In the audience, An Zhisu and Ling Yunpo stood side by side. Senior Sister An pointed at the audience and said:

"Brother, what do you think is the strength of this section of the sea?"

Ling Yunpo stared at it for a moment and said:

"I can't tell. Senior Brother Duan doesn't seem to have any weaknesses."

"Indeed." An Zhisu said affirmatively, "Duan Fenhai's real strength lies in the fact that he had sufficient experience in fighting against others before he practiced Taoism."

"Therefore, when you fight him, don't think about finding his flaws. This is probably because he is very experienced and has already made up for all his weaknesses in advance."

"Sima Changyan competed with him in swordsmanship, but did not use the sword's Taoist magic. This is because his flying sword is not as good as Duan Fenhai's. He would definitely not be able to win in a Taoist magic match, so it would be better to look for a chance to win in swordsmanship."

"The reason why Duan Fenhai didn't use Taoism was to conceal his own strength. You must know that during the sword fight, your every move was seen by others..."

At this point, she suddenly realized what was happening and smiled embarrassedly:

"But Junior Brother has the Qingping Sword, which can create a fog that covers the entire place, so there is no need to worry about that."

Ling Yunpo nodded upon hearing this, and had to admit that what Senior Sister An said made sense.

Although he had the "Green Mist Covering the Mountains" to conceal his figure, both Lin Duanshan and his senior brother Kunlun who had ambushed him in the palace earlier had come up with strategies to deal with them.

There is no such thing as an absolutely sure-win strategy.

As I said, the battle between monks is about "rank" and "trump cards".

Either you have a higher rank and can defeat the opponent with force and crush him directly.

Or it depends on who has hidden his cards deeper and brings them out to make the final decision at the critical moment.

He was thinking about something when he saw Lin Duanshan and Guan Shanyue also choose their opponents and defeat them.

So, apart from Senior Sister An who topped the list, the remaining top five spots were occupied by Po Yun, Fen Hai, Duan Shan, and Sui Yue respectively.

And then... nothing happened.

With the end of the last fencing match, the top 100 contestants of this competition were determined.

Ling Yunpo thought someone would come to challenge him, but he was ignored the entire time. He felt relieved, but he couldn't help but feel secretly confused.

However, his doubts were soon answered.

It turns out that the rewards for the top five seats in this Shushan competition are the same:

You can pick any item from the third floor of Shushan Huoyuan Cave and take it away.

After the ranking of the competition was decided, a Jindan Zhenren came forward and led An Zhisu, Ling Yunpo, Duan Fenhai, Lin Duanshan, and Guan Shanyue, a total of five people, to fly on swords to the Golden Summit of Emei.

Turning eastward from the sky above the main hall of the Golden Summit, there is a hanging cliff called "Sacrifice Cliff".

The sword immortals rode the sword lights, soaring down, passing through heavy clouds and mist, and fell into a big hole at the bottom of the valley.

Continuing down, we saw flames rising from below.

"This is the Fire Yuan Zhen Qi." Jin Dan Zhenren said calmly, "Hold your breath and concentrate, don't inhale the Qi."

Everyone held their breath immediately, and saw Jindan Zhenren took out a ruler and gently rotated it in his hand. Then several light flowers came out and enveloped everyone.

Ling Yunpo could see clearly from behind that it was the acquired spiritual treasure "Xuan Guang Ruler" owned by the Shangqing Sect of Mount Shu.

The light enveloped the entire body, isolating the red flames from entering the room.

Jindan Zhenren put away the Xuanguang Ruler and said:

"The Fire Element Cave is so huge and deep that even immortals can hardly explore its entirety."

"The deeper you go, the more intense the Fire Element Qi becomes, hence the saying that 'the Fire Element Cave goes straight to the center of the earth'."

"In addition, the further you go down, the more winding the passage becomes, with numerous intersections and changes that are difficult to remember."

"The Fire Elemental Qi also melted the rock wall, which then solidified again, making the route uncertain and making it very easy to get lost."

"From now on, you must not act arbitrarily. Otherwise, if you get separated, even gods cannot save you."

Everyone hurriedly agreed and followed the real person closely with their swords.

Jindan Zhenren's expression remained unchanged, he just led the way in front.

After an unknown amount of time, everyone finally arrived at a huge underground space.

At the bottom, there was a sea of ​​magma, which was constantly rolling and bubbling, with endless white steam rising.

It is surrounded by cylindrical inner walls, and there is a small cave every three meters, about the height of a forearm. Inside is a treasure, which is shining and radiant, filling the cave with brilliance.

Jindan Zhenren held down the sword light, waved his hand and said:

"You have a quarter of an hour to choose. No waiting after the time is up!"

So the five of them quickly activated their swords, spiraled around the rock wall and moved downstream, constantly using their spiritual sense to scan for the secret treasure in the nearby cave.
