In a majestic and ancient hall.

There were nearly ten Nascent Soul masters standing there, including Gu Dan’s master Shen Jiangyue.

"After the votes of the leaders of all the major sects, the demon race extermination order should come to an end."

At the front of the group of Nascent Soul Masters, Master Xu announced the news with a calm expression.

This is one of the human bases of the Changsheng Sect. Although the sect has not moved here yet, there must be a place to stay, and it is also convenient for everyone to discuss the overall situation together.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Yuanying masters on both sides looked at each other, and no one showed any shock or confusion.

If one can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, he must have lived for at least several hundred years, or even thousands of years.

They have seen too many things in the world, and there are almost no fools in the true sense.

Although the opportunity in Yuantian Realm is good, it is a place that is destined to be destroyed and is not worth it for them to really fight a big battle with the demon clan.

Otherwise, the consequences will be far more serious than losing a world.

Even ordinary people know that when faced with two evils, they should choose the lesser one. It is natural that these monks who have practiced for so long cannot fail to understand this truth.

Seeing that no one around him raised any objections, Venerable Xu nodded slightly, expressing his affirmation, and then said: "However, Yuantian Realm is the home ground of the human race after all. The demon race is invading in large numbers, and it is impossible to let them off so easily! Therefore, according to past practice, the life and death arena is inevitable.

However, according to the situation in Yuantian Realm, the one who will step onto the life and death arena this time will be a cultivator in the Golden Core Realm. As mentioned above, we must win but not lose. We cannot let the demon race look down on us, and we must also give an explanation to the human cultivation world. We cannot encourage others and destroy our own prestige!"

There are winners and losers in the arena of life and death, but the situations are different and the requirements are also different.

If the human race invaded the demon race, they would not be blamed too much even if they lost.

But since the source world belongs to the human race, it must be severely punished, and it is also to give a satisfactory explanation to other cultivators in the immortal world.

Otherwise, it would be too shameful to be defeated by the demon clan in their own territory. The lower-level cultivators would not mind, but the big guys above would also feel ashamed.

What's more, in order to enter the Source Heaven Realm, each sect has taken out a large amount of spiritual objects, elixirs, and skills, and benefited all cultivators through contribution points, which will definitely be retrieved in the Source Heaven Realm in the future.

If the demons occupied the three states, it would undoubtedly squeeze out the living space of some large sects. If they made less profit, they would lose money, not to mention that they were profited by the enemy? This was absolutely intolerable! Therefore, the above opinions were very clear. Each sect must send out its own true geniuses, and no one should be embarrassed. Even if they were really incapable, they must show their style.

If anyone dares to randomly select a Jindan cultivator to gain experience, or follows behind to take advantage of the situation, they will never be spared.

This is not some 'Tian Ji's Horse Race'; racial conflicts should not be underestimated.

"According to the calculations of the Saintess of Tianji Sect, this life and death competition may not be easy."

Venerable Xu then added another sentence.

"oh?"

Venerable Bai raised his eyebrows slightly. As a 'thug' trained by the Changsheng Sect, he was undoubtedly an absolute combat-type Nascent Soul. He was not very familiar with alchemy, but his cultivation was definitely the best among Nascent Souls. Who wasn't a world-famous genius thousands of years ago?

Time has gradually erased his past glory, but that doesn't mean he's old. He's just changed a place to continue to shine and has become a person in power. He no longer has to participate in the struggle among many cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.

"We humans have a rare golden elixir prodigy like Zhen Chi who only appears once in a thousand years. I can't say anything else, but I'm afraid no one in the entire golden elixir realm can be a match for Zhen Chi. Even the monsters in the Pantheon may find it difficult to match his brilliance."

Venerable Bai said in confusion: "Did the little girl from the Tianji Sect make a mistake in her divination?"

In fact, in the eyes of these Nascent Soul Masters, the demon race’s choice of the Jindan realm’s life and death arena is a kind of concession.

Knowing that they had a rare genius in the Jindan realm, they still dared to choose a Jindan-level demon king to participate in the battle. It was obvious that they were prepared to lose.

This not only gave face to the human race, but also avoided the further expansion of the war.

Even between completely hostile races, sometimes there is more than just fighting and killing. Secret calculations and exchanges of interests are inevitable.

"I'm afraid it can't be wrong."

Venerable Xu shook his head slightly. "That little girl is holding the Tianji Sect's Heavenly Principle Tablet, which is comparable to a Taoist artifact. Although that thing has not been completely imprinted by her, it is still a sure thing for her to divine things related to herself."

"We have a Dao Yun Jin Dan here, what can the Pantheon offer?"

Reverend Bai stroked his chin, puzzled.

As a combat-type Nascent Soul Master, consideration of combat power is of utmost importance.

As the "top-grade" product coveted by countless cultivators, the Flawless Golden Elixir is already of great benefit to the advancement to the Nascent Soul stage. However, Zhen Chi found a different way and took the path of the invincible Golden Elixir.

Of course, the price of this invincible Jindan road is not to be underestimated. Zhen Chi, who has already reached the perfect Jindan stage, has been unable to find a way to advance to the Yuanying stage. However, this does not affect his combat power at the Jindan level.

At least what Reverend Bai can be sure of is that even when he was young and in the Jindan realm, he would not be a match for Zhen Chi. If the three of them attacked together, he would still have a chance.

I can't say anything else, but isn't it easy for Zhen Chi to defeat three in a row? How to fight the monsters? "Who knows? Anyway, according to the hexagram, the invaders are not kind, and it is definitely not as simple as it seems."

Venerable Xu shook his head slightly.

It is not very difficult for humans to infiltrate the demon race.

But it is almost impossible to infiltrate the pantheon of the demon ruling class.

Without the blood of divine beasts, others won't even bother to look at you. Even though the dragon clan, which is extremely powerful among the demon clans, claims to be superior to the demon clan, they are not truly recognized by the Pantheon. It's just that the dragon clan has indeed joined the Pantheon.

Therefore, it is very difficult for humans to find out the real secrets of the Pantheon.

"No matter what cards the demon race has, or what plans the Pantheon has, it doesn't matter."

Venerable Xu looked around at the Nascent Souls present and said slowly, "Each sect has its own true genius, who is capable of defeating ten with one force. No matter what the plan is, just smash it!"

As soon as the conversation changed, Venerable Xu immediately said, "Regarding the candidates that Changsheng Sect needs to go into battle, is there any Yuanying Venerable who can recommend one or two?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the vast majority of Nascent Soul Masters in the hall did not even move.

Family members know their own business.

Even among the nine major immortal sects, each sect only has one spot, and in order to take care of the feelings of other sects, one person will be selected from other sects, proving that the nine major immortal sects are not denying them a chance.

This is no longer a question of too many people and too little porridge, but it is clear that only one person can be selected.

As for the situation of the Changsheng Sect, the Yuanying masters present were of course quite familiar with it. It was obvious which disciple had the most outstanding fighting ability, and there was not much controversy.

Even if one forcibly recommends one's own disciple, one has to first fight in the sect. Whoever wins will go. Rather than making a fool of oneself, it is better to just watch quietly.

Their disciples cannot be considered bad, it's just that there are always stronger ones among the strong. The arena of life and death is no joke. If you die accidentally, you are really gone. They must choose the strongest one.

Whether it is for the sake of the human race or for the sake of one's own disciples, forcing oneself to take the lead is just looking for trouble.

There was a brief moment of silence in the field.

After a moment, Venerable Bai smiled and said, "That is naturally my disciple Meng Xun. Meng Xun has been practicing Taoism for more than 230 years. He had already reached the Golden Core Perfection several decades ago. He only needs to break the final elixir. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a half-step Nascent Soul.

Whether it is magical powers, secret techniques, or personal cultivation, they are all top-notch, and he is especially proficient in fighting and killing, not much worse than I was when I was young."

Reverend Bai was the first to recommend his own disciple, and the others were not surprised.

As a branch of the Changsheng Sect's guards, they don't need to worry about refining pills. All they need to do is know how to fight, and there will be enough pills.

As the backbone of the Dao-protecting lineage over the years, Venerable Bai's disciples must be the best of the best.

Venerable Xu also nodded slightly. He certainly knew about his own genius, but it was not easy to make a decision on such matters, otherwise it would be like saying that other geniuses were not good enough.

Geniuses usually have tempers, and they don’t want to dampen the temper of their own genius.

If at that time some genius feels that this candidate is not good enough, or that he can defeat him, he will do it in his own sect and be done with it.

"I know Meng Xun. He is indeed a very good junior. I remember that he once challenged a Yuanying elder and lasted a hundred rounds. If his spiritual energy had not been exhausted, he would still have been able to fight."

Venerable Xu looked around and asked, "Who else has a different opinion?"

"I."

Reverend Zheng stepped forward and said, "My disciple Lou Yan has been practicing Taoism for 356 years. Although he only has a top-grade spiritual root, he is a rising star. He has honed his cultivation to the extreme. He is at the same level as the Golden Core Perfection and Half-Step Nascent Soul stage. He is only short of the final stage of Shattering the Core and Condensing the Nascent Soul stage.

Although there are many disciples who have reached the Golden Core Perfection stage among my disciples, I admire him the most. He has a calm personality, plans carefully before taking action, and dares to fight at critical moments. He is now ranked in the top 20 on the Tianjiao list. Even though he is still somewhat "unknown" in the world of cultivating immortals, he has the potential to be a late bloomer. "

Top-grade spiritual roots are not really bad, but if you have to choose the best of the best, then heavenly spiritual roots must be the most advantageous.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

But this does not mean that the spiritual roots are absolutely ahead.

That only means that one's own cultivation speed will be faster and the probability of being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage will be higher, but it will not have much impact on combat power.

Both are at the Perfect Golden Core stage and half a step into the Nascent Soul stage. Without considering the Nascent Soul stage, the two are equal, and it does not mean that one is inferior in combat power because of slightly inferior spiritual roots.

What's more, Lou Yan has practiced Taoism for an extra hundred years, so his foundation is extremely solid, and it goes without saying that he has studied hard and practiced diligently.

As a master, he must of course fight for an opportunity for his disciple.

If he could be selected, with the nine great immortal sects’ full efforts in training him, the probability of condensing his infant soul in the future would be even higher. He must fight for the only spot in the Changsheng Sect.

"I also know about that kid Lou Yan."

Venerable Xu's expression remained unchanged as he said with certainty, "Although Lou Yan has never become the top leader in the sect competition, he has always achieved quite good rankings. Now he is even able to occupy a place in the top 20 on the Tianjiao Ranking. He really deserves the title of late bloomer."

Regardless of whether it was the disciple recommended by Venerable Bai or the disciple recommended by Venerable Zheng, Venerable Xu just commented calmly and did not express his support for anyone.

Whoever wins goes, that's only fair.

"Okay, now that two geniuses have been recommended, who else thinks they can compete with Meng Xun and Lou Yan?"

Venerable Xu looked at the other Nascent Soul Venerables.

There was a slight commotion in the field, but no one stood up to speak.

Everyone knows their own business, and everyone knows clearly who can be beaten and who cannot be beaten.

Rather than forcibly recommending your own disciple and being humiliated by being pinned to the ground and beaten by other people's disciples, it would be more comfortable to just be a spectator.

It also saves us from bringing shame to our Master.

"It seems that no one has any objection."

Venerable Xu nodded slightly, "If that's the case."

"Wait a moment!"

Shen Jiangyue, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Many Nascent Soul masters looked over, quite puzzled.

Shen Jiangyue still has some weight in the Changsheng Sect. It’s not that her strength is necessarily outstanding, but as a single Kun cultivator who is also an alchemist, she naturally has quite a number of suitors who want to become her Taoist partner.

The Yuanying masters present naturally had to know about her situation.

All in all, Shen Jiangyue only has two disciples, one of whom was just accepted a few years ago, so he can be ruled out directly.

That leaves only that one.

"Um?"

Even Venerable Xu was surprised for a moment, "Venerable Shen, what do you want to say?"

"My apprentice also wants to try it."

Shen Jiangyue smiled slightly and said.

"Your apprentice?"

Before Master Xu could say anything, Master Zheng couldn't help laughing. "That little girl, she hasn't reached the Golden Core Perfection yet, right? Even if she has a natural spiritual root, she is definitely not as good as Meng Xun.

Even if you really want to get involved, you should take in more disciples first. You don't want your new disciples to die, do you? Hahaha."

After some teasing, it was obvious that Venerable Zheng still resented the fact that Shen Jiangyue jumped out and snatched away a disciple with natural spiritual roots.

Tsk, what’s the point of having fewer disciples sitting down?

It depends on how strong the master is!

He has been teaching his disciples carefully for hundreds of years, and his disciples are spread all over the Changsheng Sect, so he can naturally select the best from the best.

A man with only two disciples actually wants to compete with his disciples?

You're really asking for trouble.

Even the usually steady Venerable Xu frowned and said, "Venerable Shen, this is a matter of life and death. It not only represents the reputation of the Changsheng Sect, but also the reputation of the human race. You must not act rashly. Even if they are recommended geniuses, they must fight each other before they can represent the Changsheng Sect in the battle.

I also know your disciple. She has only been practicing Taoism for over a hundred years, right? She is not yet at the Golden Core Perfection stage. Although she has a natural spiritual root, she still needs more time to settle down before she can truly grow.

Forcing her to go through trials may not necessarily be a good thing for her own cultivation."

This is already a rather euphemistic statement.

Apparently, Venerable Xu also believed that Shen Jiangyue's first disciple was not qualified to compete with the disciples of Venerable Bai and Venerable Zheng.

Forced recommendation will not only undermine the confidence of one's disciples, but also bring shame to the master. Do not act on impulse.

"Who said I was going to recommend Lingyin?"

Shen Jiangyue said dissatisfiedly: "I want to recommend another disciple!"

"Another disciple?"

A trace of bewilderment appeared on the face of Master Xu, but he immediately reacted and even raised his voice a few notches involuntarily, "You want to recommend that Kong Zhai?!" (End of this chapter)
