Once the top eight rankings are determined, the list of opponents will also be determined.
The first pairs the eighth, the second pairs the seventh, and so on.
Gao Xian's first battle was against Tai Yuan, which was exactly what Tai Yuan wanted. Tai Ning attached so much importance to Gao Xian, which made him very unhappy.
What Pojun Xingjun, just brag about it in a small place like Wanfeng County. Xuanming Sect is the center of Mingzhou, and geniuses are born in large numbers.
There are dozens of Daojuns who have reached the state of transformation, so what can a mere Yuanying Zhenjun do? With the Taiyuan Divine Sword in his hand, he could kill this Pojun Xingjun and let many Yuanying know the strengths and weaknesses of their Xuanming Sect! Taiyuan was full of fighting spirit at this moment, holding the hilt of the sword and looking at Gao Xian coldly, his eyes as sharp as a sword.
Gao Xian noticed that Tai Yuan was full of momentum, so he smiled and bowed: "We are going to fight on the Tianwu stage, so please show some mercy, fellow Taoist."
"I will do my best to compete with you on the Tianwu Stage. Saying that you should show mercy is not only an insult to me, but also disrespectful to our sect."
Taiyuan scolded Gaoxian without any hesitation, his attitude was tough and a little overbearing.
Many Yuanying couldn't help but look sideways. Everyone knew that the so-called "showing mercy" was just a polite remark, and no one would take it seriously. Taiyuan's harsh reprimand surprised many Yuanying Zhenjun.
They were both Yuanying Zhenjun, so even if they wanted to fight, there was no need to tear each other apart like this. After all, it was not a personal grudge, and there was no grudge between them.
Qingle couldn't help but frown slightly. Taiyuan was an extreme and arrogant person, but it was not normal for him to lose his composure like this. Was it for Taining?
Tai Ning was a very scheming person, and everyone in the sect spoke highly of her. However, Qing Le did not like Tai Ning very much, because she was too smart and it was very tiring to get along with her.
Gao Xian is also smart, but he doesn't usually play tricks. It's very easy to get along with him. This is also why Qingle likes Gao Xian.
No one who can achieve the Nascent Soul stage is a fool. You always play tricks, how can others not see it! Qingle was a little worried that Gao Xian was irritated. Although Taiyuan was arrogant and extreme, he might have other purposes for doing this in public.
After all, this is the Xuanming Sect. If Gao Xian loses his composure in front of Huashen Daojun Zhenye, the situation will be unpredictable.
Gao Xian was not angry at all. He bowed his hands and said seriously, "Fellow Daoist, you are teaching me that I was a little frivolous. On the Tianwu Stage, I will do my best to fight with you."
Taiyuan was a little surprised. This guy was quite cunning. He didn't know what to say, so he could only ignore Gaoxian with a cold face.
On the high platform, Zhenye couldn't help but secretly shake his head. Taiyuan used such a clumsy method to provoke Gaoxian. I don't know if it was naive or what. Maybe he stayed in the sect for too long and didn't know how high the sky was!
You have to know that Gao Xian was born as a casual cultivator, climbing up step by step from a small market on the edge of the East Wilderness. If he hadn't been scheming, how could he have achieved what he has today! Zhenye wanted to sigh when he thought of this. Although the Yuanying Zhenjun of the sect had also gone out to experience, they were all born too high and had never really suffered.
Compared with this kind of high-ranking cultivator from the bottom, they lack a bit of energy. Of course, there is also a problem with the bottom-level background, that is, they are short-sighted and easily get carried away when they see a small profit.
Gao Xian is also famous for his greed for money and lust.
Zhenye doesn't want to worry about these trivial matters. If you want to compete for the first place, you have to show your skills. This is also the meaning of the Taoist exam. If everything is prepared, you won't cherish it.
The great way is in conflict, the human way is in conflict.
The changes in the world have caused all living things to fight for a glimmer of hope. Without this awareness, one can only turn into ashes in the catastrophe of the world...
Zhenye said loudly: "Gather at Tianwutai at noon three days later. Those who fail to arrive on time will be regarded as giving up..."
After saying this, Zhenye flicked his sleeves. Divine light shone on the ground of the hall, and the next moment, many Yuanyings were already outside the Wanxiang Palace.
The many Yuanying Zhenjuns exchanged a few polite words and then dispersed in twos and threes.
Gao Xian glanced at Qingle, and Qingle used his spiritual sense to transmit his voice: "I want to go back and practice in peace to prepare for the battle..."
After fighting hard in the Abyssal Sea, Qingle was exhausted. She needed to rest and recuperate to prepare for the battle in three days.
"I have a wonderful method of dual cultivation that can restore your energy in one day..." Gao Xian said seriously.
Qingle was very excited. At their level, the method of dual cultivation was still very useful. Gao Xian was not only known as the master of love and romance, but his "The Great Joy of Yin and Yang in the Universe" was praised by many powerful people. They believed that although this method was simple, it had already achieved the wonders of dual cultivation of yin and yang.
"really?"
"I can still lie to you."
Gao Xian promised: "If it doesn't work, I will give you all my energy. I guarantee you will be full of energy!"
Qingle rolled her eyes at Gao Xian, saying that he was just talking nonsense. But she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.
After returning to Lanfangzhai, Gao Xian sent Qingqing to rest, and he took Qingle with him to comprehend the supreme Dharma together.
Although the back of the Fengyue Treasure Mirror is all about love and romance, after repeated upgrades, it has long since left the scope of dual cultivation.
For example, the Yin-Yang Wheel and the Red Dragon Swallowing the Moon, these two orthodox dual cultivation methods had long since mutated. The Red Dragon Swallowing the Moon had become Sister Lan's magical power.
In addition, there is the Qiankun Yinyang Creation Cauldron, which is indeed a very wonderful dual cultivation secret method. Even if he has locked Yue Shenxiu, he cannot practice this method with others.
Fortunately, he now has a different vision and insight, and has his own unique understanding of the dual cultivation of yin and yang. In addition, Sister Lan's Taishi Ou Shen, this top-level secret technique, has been added.
His spiritual awareness is strong, and he can grasp the subtle changes of Qingle exquisitely, so he can perfectly match Qingle's secret method of cultivation.
Sure enough, within a day, through the secret technique of dual cultivation of the Yin-Yang Wheel, Gao Xian not only swept away the slight fatigue accumulated over many days, but Qingle was even more radiant, and his Yin Spirit reached an extremely harmonious and perfect state.
"Well, I didn't lie to you!"
Gao Xian hugged Qingle proudly and said, "Practice for another two days, maybe you can make a breakthrough in your cultivation."
Qingle pushed Gaoxian aside and sat up. She said seriously, "That won't work. Practicing dual cultivation is too joyful and will greatly affect my fighting spirit. I need to calm down and accumulate my energy in the next two days and not indulge in joy."
As she spoke, she quickly put on her clothes. Before leaving, she reminded Gao Xian: "Taining is determined to win this Taoist exam. She is not sure she can beat you, so she must find Fan Qingyuan from Wanbao Tower to help pass on the message. You have to think carefully, this beauty is not that simple..."
"I won't be tempted by beauty. I'm not that kind of person..."
Before Gao Xian could finish his words, Qingle had already disappeared. It was a bit disappointing that he was gone just when he was having a good time.
Gao Xian lay lazily on the bed, thinking about what Qingle said, and he couldn't help feeling a little hesitant.
If Tai Ning insisted on going to bed with him to apologize to him, would he accept it? This woman was very scheming and even plotted against him. She was not a good woman.
However, she is pretty... pretty and fun, that's enough. Who cares if she has any intentions? I won't live with her!
The curse mark on Sister Lan's body has almost faded. This kind of curse is not enough to kill people. He is not the kind of person who will take revenge for a slight grievance.
He had no choice but to kill people before, but now that he has the money, he still wants to be a good person...
However, I could never give the first place in the test to anyone else.
Although Gao Xian likes to have fun, he knows what is important and what is not. The Great Five Elements Divine Light is related to the great matter of enlightenment. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a great cause for the ages, and even a great cause for the ages is not enough to describe it.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Not to mention Fan Qingyuan, even if Tianfu Palace Master Zhenying came, he would not give in. Of course, it was almost impossible for Huashen Daojun to show up for such a thing.
If Zhenying wanted to take care of this matter, he could just go to the sect directly. Why waste time on a junior like him? There was even less need to worry about the Xuanming Sect.
If Xuanming Cult wanted to decide the first place, they would not hold a competition. The risk is too great. If others really saw that Xuanming Cult was playing tricks, the Lord of Mingzhou would lose all face.
Gao Xian pondered the details and felt that there was no big problem. Since Qingle was gone, he could use the time to refine the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel.
After several days of testing, Gao Xian discovered that the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel contained spirituality. This spirituality was probably similar to that of plants and trees, with only some instincts but no real wisdom.
In fact, the so-called divine weapons do not have real wisdom, but they are more spiritual and can better cooperate with practitioners to control the magical weapons.
According to some records, only the sixth-level top-level artifacts can produce spiritual wisdom, like a seven or eight-year-old boy. However, such spiritual wisdom is often more troublesome.
For cultivators, the stronger the spiritual power of a divine weapon, the better it is. Instead, the easier it is to control, the better. This is a huge difference.
Having said that, although the spirituality in the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel was not high, it knew to actively devour the Phantom Demon Spirit Core. It naturally became more familiar and recognized the Gaoxian aura it fed. This also allowed him to more deeply master the central restriction of the Taiyin Xuanjing Wheel and further exert the power of the spiritual weapon.
At night, Gao Xian had been refining weapons for most of the day and was about to take a break when the Xuanming Order in his sleeve began to buzz.
Gao Xian took out the Xuanming Order. The runes on the order were shining brightly. It was obvious that someone was communicating with him through the Xuanming Order.
His consciousness touched the Xuanming Order, and he received a message from his consciousness through the shining rune. It was Fan Qingyuan who invited him to go to Wanbao Tower at noon tomorrow, saying that there was something important to discuss.
"Qingle really got it right..."
Gao Xian hesitated for a moment, but decided to go. He was not after Tai Ning's beauty, but mainly because he had a partnership with Fan Qingyuan, so he had to give her the honor.
Mr. Zhou said: The world of martial arts is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom.
Gao Xian was very clear that he was an outsider. Now that he had to rely on Fan Qingyuan's Wanbao Tower to get things done, he couldn't be too self-righteous.
We should give him the face he deserves. Besides, there's nothing to be afraid of just chatting. He's not a child, he won't lose his mind after being coaxed a few times.
The next day, Gao Xian explained everything to Qing Qing and he came to Wan Bao Tower alone.
When they arrived at the 13th floor, Fan Qingyuan personally came to the door to greet them, looking quite enthusiastic. Tai Ning stood beside Fan Qingyuan, smiling sweetly and gently.
The two sides greeted each other politely and praised each other for a few words before entering the house and taking seats as host and guest.
Without waiting for Fan Qingyuan to speak, Tai Ning stood up and bowed deeply: "Daoyou, I secretly cast a spell on you in the Abyss Sea. It was too rude and too presumptuous. I hope you can forgive me..."
Gao Xian was a little surprised. This person made everything clear as soon as he opened the door. If he didn't give him a way out, how could he step down?
Fan Qingyuan watched quietly from the side. She actually felt that Tai Ning's move was a bit risky. Looking at Gao Xian's three hundred years of experience, we know that this person is deep-minded, capable, and ruthless.
Looking at his direct sales method, it can be said that he has a deep understanding of human nature and can be called extremely wise. If you offend such a person, you can't just pretend to be obedient and honest and get away with it.
This Tai Ning is her uncle, and he is also the direct descendant of the Zhenying Patriarch, so he is highly respected. She will do her best to help him, both in public and in private. She just hopes that Gao Xian will be more sensible and not embarrass everyone.
Fan Qingyuan is still willing to cooperate with Gao Xian to sell books. This is a sure-win business. The key is that it can also be used to spread the influence of Wanbaolou downwards, which is very important.
Gao Xian didn't look at Fan Qingyuan. The fact that he invited them to dinner had already shown his attitude, that is, he was endorsing Tai Ning. He was not afraid of Fan Qingyuan and Tai Ning. What kind of storm could these two women stir up?
Even the Xuanming Sect, he didn't care much. As long as he got the Great Five Elements Divine Light, he could gain a foothold anywhere in the world, and he didn't have to stay here.
However, we must first obtain the Great Five Elements Divine Light.
Gao Xian smiled at Tai Ning and said, "So it was you who cast the spell. It is indeed magical and powerful..."
Tai Ning also understood what Gao Xian meant. Saying that her magic was powerful was not a compliment to her, but a reminder to her that this matter could not be dismissed with just a few words.
She took out a golden jade slip from her sleeve and held it in front of Gao Xian with both hands. "This is the Great Five Elements Extinction Sword Scripture. It is a gift I prepared specifically for you, fellow Taoist. Please accept it..." (End of this chapter)
