The runes on the golden "Taiyi Divine Transformation Tian'e Talisman" shone with spiritual light, and the two red characters "Gao Xian" written with blood and essence on it burned loudly in the shining spiritual light. This jade fifth-grade spiritual talisman also exploded into countless white jade fragments.

An abnormal blush appeared on Tai Ning's delicate little round face. The backlash of the luck connection after casting the talisman caused her Yin spirit to shake and her Qi and blood to surge. She could no longer control her own condition.

Tai Yuan, who was guarding the Dharma with a sword, saw Tai Ning's situation and didn't seem to care about him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tai Ning turned the Tianji beads in her left hand around, and with the mysterious changes of the Tianji beads in transforming her qi, she quickly dissipated the backlash she had endured.

Facing Taiyuan's concerned look, Taining smiled and said, "It's okay. Gao Xian's luck is very strong. The spell landed and connected the energy. I was backfired."

Tai Yuan couldn't help but shook his head: "Actually, there's no need to do that. The Tai Yuan Sword in my hand has become one with my destiny. With the power of this magic sword, it won't be difficult to wipe out Gao Xian."

"Gao Xian is a weird person. He is the biggest obstacle for me to take first place."

Tai Ning suppressed her boiling blood and now her expression has returned to normal. She has willow-shaped eyebrows, star-shaped eyes, a small and round face, white skin like jade, and an extremely delicate and soft appearance. The lake blue Taoist robe she wears is blessed with a one-yuan two-phase Yin-Yang divine scroll, which is mysterious and gorgeous.

Her voice was soft and sweet, and even when she spoke about wars and killings, she spoke in a gentle voice that sounded as graceful and moving as music.

Taiyuan looked at Taining infatuatedly, not knowing where he was for a moment.

He had liked Taining since he was a teenager and had liked her for hundreds of years. When he achieved Nascent Soul stage, he could have any beauties in the world he wanted, but he liked Taining even more.

It was also because of Tai Ning that he was willing to persevere in practicing swordsmanship for hundreds of years. Tai Yuan knew in his heart that he practiced swordsmanship because of Tai Ning's obsession, and as a result, Tai Ning became his swordsmanship.

If he gets Taining, it will be a blessing or a curse for him. If he doesn't get Taining, it will motivate him to keep moving forward. Of course, there is also a huge disadvantage, which is that he cannot refuse Taining's request.

Just like this time during the Taoist exam, when Taining asked him for help, he would rather give up his own future and help Taining with all his strength.

That's it. As long as Taiyuan sees Taining and hears her voice, he feels very satisfied and happy. It's all worth it.

Tai Ning had long been accustomed to Tai Yuan's infatuated look, and she also understood that this was more of Tai Yuan's self-obsession rather than simple love.

As long as Taiyuan is willing to help her, it doesn't matter what his emotional state is.

This Taoist test is extremely important to her. Only by getting the first place can she get the fifth-level artifact, the Heavenly Sound Mirror of the Ten Directions True Kings.

This item is very important for her cultivation. If she can get it in advance, it can save her at least hundreds of years of hard cultivation. At this time of great changes in the world, hundreds of years are too long, and who knows what kind of great changes will happen.

She had a vague feeling that Mingzhou would not last that long before a drastic change occurred. Before that, she had to at least achieve enlightenment and become a god before she was qualified to stand firm and protect herself.

Before, everyone gathered in front of the Wanxiang Palace. Tai Ning looked at the many Yuanying Zhenjuns and felt that Gao Xian was the biggest obstacle to her winning the championship, followed by Shui Qinghong, and then Wan Qingxia and Qingle.

Although the others had their own auras, they were not a concern. After all the calculations, only Gao Xian and his men were the biggest threat. Among them, Gao Xian was the most powerful, his form and spirit were perfect, and she could not see any flaws.

Tai Ning actually doesn't like fighting with others, and rarely uses spells against enemies. Although spells are mysterious and can eliminate powerful enemies without making any noise, they also come at a price.

But Gao Xian's goal was clearly the Great Five Elements Divine Light, and he had to get first place. The conflict between the two was irreconcilable. She had no choice but to strike first.

The Taiyi Divine Transformation Heavenly Evil Talisman is a fifth-level spiritual talisman. It has no direct killing power itself, but will only inflict heavenly evil on the person being treated, causing all kinds of disasters.

This sounds mysterious, but its essence is to destroy the cultivator's body and soul, making him mentally confused. On the other hand, its natural evil and yin energy will attract evil spirits, demons and other filthy things.

Gao Xian killed the phantom demon in the Abyss of the Sea of ​​Essence, and was cast with this talisman, which would definitely attract many powerful phantom demons.

Not to mention killing Gao Xian, at least make him exhausted and force him to leave the Abyssal Sea. As long as he doesn't kill enough phantom demons, he won't be able to enter the top eight. In this way, Gao Xian can be easily eliminated.

Tai Ning prepared three Taiyi Divine Transformation Heavenly Evil Talismans this time. He originally planned to cast spells on Gao Xian, Shui Qinghong, and Wan Qingxia one by one to exclude them all from the top eight.

The reason she was able to cast spells was actually because she read the jade slips left by Gao Xian and others in the main hall of Wanxiang Palace and gained some of their spiritual awareness from them.

In addition, the distance between the two parties is very close, so this spell will definitely lock on Gao Xian.

The result was not good. She had just built the altar to cast a spell, but was attacked by the talisman. Although she was not seriously injured, it had a great impact on her.

Tai Ning used the Heavenly Secret Bead to predict the future, but it was hard to predict whether it would be good or bad. This was actually a very bad omen.

She didn't know what secret method Gao Xian used to resist the Taiyi Divine Transformation Tian'e Talisman, she could only be sure that this talisman did not play much of a role.

After weighing the pros and cons, Tai Ning gave up on casting the spell. If she continued to do this, Gao Xian might be in trouble, but she would not feel good either. It might end up being a lose-lose situation for both of them.

There are also a number of powerful Yuanying Zhenjuns, and she can't just focus on Gao Xian alone.

Tai Ning said: "Let's focus on killing the phantom demon first. Let's get into the top eight first."

In the depths of the Abyssal Sea, Gao Xian was ultimately unable to find the person who cast the spell. Fortunately, the other party left traces of the spell.

When he gathers at Tianwutai, he will naturally know who did it.

Gao Xian was a narrow-minded person, and the other party secretly shot an arrow at him, so the feud was formed.

In the next few days, Gao Xian found that he had a strange attraction to the phantom demons. Often, before he killed one phantom demon, two more would come running over.

If Gao Xian had not refined the Pure Yang Divine Spear, he would not have dared to fight against so many fifth-level phantom demons. The phantom demon is brainless, but its ability to condense its primordial spirit is not fake.

It is different now. With each shot of the Pure Yang Divine Spear, he can always accurately observe the opponent's soul center and injure the opponent easily.

In addition, the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel is compatible with the yin energy here, making it easier to deal with the phantom demon.

Gao Xian also made an unexpected discovery. The Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel can absorb the spiritual core left by the phantom demon. The spiritual core can push the central restriction of this spiritual weapon to increase its power.

This kind of spiritual weapon can be upgraded in rank. However, different spiritual weapons have different ways of upgrading their rank. The conventional method is to increase the number of restrictions, which will naturally increase the power of the spiritual weapon.

The Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel absorbs the pure Yin energy of the Phantom Demon Core through the central restriction, increases the number of restrictions, and changes the material of the spiritual weapon from the inside out.

Gao Xian also accidentally used a move called Dark Moon Hidden Void. The brightly shining Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel suddenly shrank into a point, condensing the spatial magic power to the extreme and crushing the phantom demon to pieces on the spot.

The spirit core of the phantom demon was crushed by the Taiyin Mysterious Essence Wheel, and the spirit core's essence was naturally absorbed by the Taiyin Mysterious Essence Wheel.

The fifth-level spirit core is not common. Don't think that killing a phantom demon is as easy as killing a chicken, it's mainly because of the power of the Pure Yang Divine Spear.

Even if one were to use the fourth-order Zixiao Tianshu Golden Whip to subdue demons, it would be difficult to severely injure the fifth-order phantom demon.

There is actually a profound principle of life and death hidden in this. If Han Yue were here, even if he had the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel in his hand, he would have to risk his life to kill the fifth-level phantom demon.

Gao Xian was somewhat surprised by this discovery. In the past ten days, he had killed dozens of fifth-level phantom demons and accumulated a lot of spirit cores.

It would be great if you could use it yourself.

During the remaining few days, with the curse cast by the unknown enemy, Sister Lan was sick and listless, but she also attracted a large number of fifth-level phantom demons.

The fifth-level phantom demons all have their own territories, so it's not easy to find one. Now Gao Xian doesn't need to look for them, they all rush towards him like moths to a flame.

Gao Xian was very happy. He took this opportunity to get more Phantom Demon Cores and perhaps even upgrade the grade of the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel.

This fifth-grade lower-grade spiritual weapon was quite suitable for him to control because it matched the Moon Phase Sword. In the process of modifying the grade of the Taiyin Mysterious Essence Wheel, his consciousness would follow and penetrate into the spiritual weapon's restriction center, allowing him to refine the spiritual weapon faster.

This is a very good thing.

When the fifteen-day deadline was up, Gao Xian took Qingqing back to Wanxiang Palace.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

When Gao Xian arrived at the central hall, he saw the chief examiner Zhenye standing on the high platform of the hall. Below the high platform, dozens of Yuanying Zhenjun had gathered.

Most of these people could not hide their fatigue, and each of them looked very listless.

The phantom demons in the Abyss Sea were not easy to deal with. Everyone fought hard to get good grades. Everyone was surprised to see Gao Xian, who was full of energy.

After fighting for fifteen days, he was still so energetic. It was very abnormal! In comparison, Qingqing was much worse. She looked haggard and the light in her eyes was dim. It was obvious that she had experienced a long and hard battle and her spiritual power was almost exhausted.

Everyone suddenly realized that the old man was exploiting beautiful women to do work, and he was the only one who could be so calm and composed just because he was a hands-off boss.

Qingqing's identity was no secret. In fact, everyone knew that Qingqing was Gao Xian's pet, a young and beautiful Yuanying Sword Master!

Many Nascent Souls are naturally envious of this. It is very difficult to train a fourth-level pet beast, and to train it into a Nascent Soul Sword King, this cannot be simply measured by the pet beast.

Besides, Qingqing was heroic and beautiful. The original form of the black crane made her figure graceful, and practicing the Taiwei Feixian Sword Scripture gave her a kind of high and elegant demeanor of a flying fairy.

In terms of grace and appearance, Qingqing is also outstanding among all the female Nascent Souls.

When everyone thought of Qingqing being used as a laborer by Gao Xian, some people couldn't help but feel pity for Qingqing, thinking that she had followed the wrong person! Gao Xian probably guessed what everyone was thinking, and he found it a little funny, but there was no need to explain. Qingqing followed him just to help.

So this appearance is really because his cultivation is too shallow. Well, the many Yuanying present are similar.

Gao Xian also understood this very well. After all, he had three Yuanyings, and his consciousness was comparable to that of a god. Just two advantages were enough to crush all ordinary Yuanyings.

Gao Xian took the storage bag and walked forward to hand over the items to Zhen Ye. A middle-aged Taoist priest came over and took the storage bag. He counted the items one by one and made a record, then asked Gao Xian and Qing Qing to sign.

The two killed more than two hundred fifth-level phantom demons in the Abyss Sea, especially in the last five days, the number of phantom demons killed was several times that of the previous ten days.

He killed all the fifth-level phantom demons that he guessed were in the Abyss of the Sea of ​​Essence.

According to his calculations, a Yuanying Zhenjun can only kill a fifth-level phantom demon in a day. Killing a phantom demon is extremely risky and consumes a lot of energy. Even if these Yuanyings have magical powers and secret methods, it is difficult for them to continue fighting.

He took out thirty spirit cores and gave Qingqing twenty-nine spirit cores. This number of fifth-level spirit cores was enough for the two of them to easily enter the top eight.

Sure enough, the middle-aged Taoist priest who was in charge of checking the spirit cores had a subtle expression on his face. It was obvious that this number of spirit cores was far beyond his expectations.

Zhenye was a little surprised that this Gaoxian was really good at fighting, killing so many fifth-level phantom demons. This alone was enough to earn him a top rating.

Combined with the above-average evaluation of Wanxiang Palace’s problem solving, Gao Xian and Gao Qinghe can both securely enter the top eight.

The other Yuanying Zhenjuns were watching curiously from below. With Huashen Daojun sitting above, they didn't dare to use their spiritual sense to spy. But looking at Gao Xian's appearance, he should have obtained a lot of spiritual cores.

Gao Xian took Qing Qing down the platform and just saw Tai Ning and Tai Yuan coming in side by side. He glanced at Tai Ning's sweet and delicate face, with a polite and cheerful smile on his face, and nodded slightly.

The two sides had never spoken, but he knew that this woman was called Taining, a direct descendant of the Xuanming Sect, and her seniority was still higher than that of Uncle Master Qingle. Most importantly, she was a direct disciple of Zhenying, the master of Tianfu Hall.

Fan Qingyuan of Wanbaolou is from the Zhenying faction. He cooperates with Wanbaolou, so his relationship with Taining should be OK. I didn't expect that this woman was using spells against him behind his back.

Gao Xian recognized the aura of curse on Tai Ning, which could not be concealed in any way, unless Tai Ning abolished the Yin Shen and started over.

Tai Ning also knew that she couldn't hide it from Gao Xian, and when she cast the spell, she suffered a backlash, and the two sides established a subtle connection. She also smiled and nodded to Gao Xian.

The hatred was formed, but there was no need to show it on her face. She had heard that this Pojun Star Lord was greedy for money and lustful, so this hatred was not unresolved. Besides, she was a direct descendant of Xuanming, so she didn't have to be afraid of Gao Xian.

Zhenye noticed the subtle interaction between Taining and Gaoxian, but he didn't care. As long as the fight between the younger generations was not made public, he would not care.

Besides, he was not Gao Xian's babysitter. It was already worthy of Lu Xuanji that he could get an upper-middle evaluation for solving the problem.

At four quarters after noon, a clear sound of a jade chime marked the end of the assessment.

All ninety-seven Nascent Soul candidates were present, and everyone was standing under the platform waiting for Zhenye to announce the results.

Zhenye slowly took out the book and read: "Gao Xian, Tai Ning, Shui Qinghong, Qingle, Wan Qingxia, Gao Qinghe, Tai Cheng, and Tai Yuan are the top eight..."

Everyone looked at Gao Xian. It was unexpected that he could get the first place in the first two levels. Especially the level of Wanxiang Palace, which was prepared for the Xuanming Sect's own people.

This Pojun Star Lord really lives up to his reputation!

Gao Xian smiled and bowed in front of everyone's gaze: "It's just luck, I'm so ashamed..."

The expressions of all the Yuanying Zhenjuns were somewhat complicated. This guy looked so smug, but he didn't seem to feel ashamed or uneasy at all! Tai Ning, Shui Qinghong and other Yuanying Zhenjuns looked at Gao Xian silently, and they were full of fear for this famous Pojun Xingjun...
