Xu Ziyan was shocked. He immediately reacted and hurriedly closed the release of the virtual realm talisman. He used his mental power to scan it and found that in just one or two breaths, one-tenth of the spiritual energy on the talisman had been consumed. Slightly.

After some calculations, I feel that this virtual realm talisman can only last for twenty breaths at most. Now that it has lost one-tenth, there is about eighteen breaths left.

Xu Ziyan sealed the virtual realm talisman very quickly, and the power of the pill formation stage did not spread far. That's it, people in several rooms around Xu Ziyan's residence felt the kind of feeling that they had never experienced before.

The terrifying pressure. Xu Qingxue and several others were directly subdued by this pressure and fell to the ground. They were sweating through their clothes and almost peed. Fortunately, this pressure disappeared very quickly, and several people just felt suffocated.

I had to faint, and the coercion receded like a tide. Several people looked around blankly, not knowing what happened. But they vaguely remembered that the power came from Xu Ziyan's room, Xu Qingxue

The awe of Xu Ziyan and others immediately increased rapidly, and a thought passed through their minds at the same time:

"Boss Ziyan is the boss, and she has enough momentum. What state should she be in now? Didn't she get another breakthrough just now?"

Not to mention that Xu Ziyan understood the art of making talismans there, the day of alliance between the Han family in Juque City and the Xu family in Zhongdu City finally arrived. Many guests came from all parties, and the heads of the small and medium-sized families in the North came to attend the event in person.

This was a feast for the North, and many famous casual cultivators also came. Of course, Li Wanpeng, Xiao Rugui and Wu Meng from Zhongdu City appeared at the Xu family, with congratulatory smiles on their faces, but their eyes kept wandering.

A sharp light flashed on the ground. In the early morning of that day, Zhou Ba, the head of the Zhou family in Canglang City, and Yang Rui, the head of the Yang family in Nanlin City, also personally led some senior members of the family to the Xu family.

Xu Haoran and Han Kui naturally went to the gate to greet them hand in hand. After some hypocritical politeness, they all walked towards the central square of the Xu family. In front of the central square, the Xu family built a very tall and wide platform. The patriarchs of each family

and some famous casual cultivators were invited to the high platform. The masters brought by the clan leader and some not-so-famous casual cultivators had to sit in the pergolas built on both sides of the platform. Even the Xu family

The hall masters and elders were also sitting in the pergola near the high platform.

The inner disciples of the Xu family all acted as guards to maintain order at this time, because a large number of monks came from all over the north to watch the ceremony. These people did not have seats, but they were also the largest number, and they were noisy in the central square.

While chatting, sometimes they met enemies and tended to draw swords against each other. Fortunately, they all still remembered that this was the Xu family, one of the four major families in the North, and the patriarchs of the other three major families were also sitting there at this time.

He was on a high platform, so he could still hold back the hatred in his heart, but the verbal abuse was still indispensable, which made the inner disciples of the Xu family sweat profusely.

At this time, the disciples of the Xu Family Outer Hall have become waiters, constantly delivering tea and fruits to the patriarchs on the high platform and the guests in the pergola. Although Xu Ziyan has now revealed the first level of cultivation in the Qi Refining Period

, but did not enter the inner hall, so the inner hall naturally did not look for her. And her current cultivation level naturally did not belong to the outer hall, so the steward of the outer hall did not arrange for her to bring tea and water. Besides, the outer hall

All the stewards saw that day the patriarch personally led the family's senior officials to wait for Xu Ziyan outside Xu Ziyan's door. Who would find it uncomfortable to work for Xu Ziyan, who is no longer the outer hall? So. In the entire Xu family, Xu Ziyan became the only idle person.

's disciple.

At this time, on the high platform, the four patriarchs of the big families in the North were talking and laughing happily. No one mentioned what happened outside Zhongdu City in the wind and snow that night, as if it had never happened.

At this time, someone in the crowd under the high platform shouted:

"Clan Chief Xu and Chief Han, today is a great day for the two clans to form an alliance. I wonder if we can let the sons of the two clan heads compete with each other to add to the fun."

Xu Haoran looked for the voice, but could not find that person. When everyone in the audience heard this, they shouted together:

"I invite you two young masters to show what you have learned, to encourage the alliance, and to open our horizons for us."

Xu Haoran glanced to the side, scanning the faces of Li Wanpeng, Xiao Rugui and Wu Meng, and thought to himself:

"Did they arrange it? They wanted to use the young man's anger to create an accident. In this way, they could destroy the alliance between the Xu family and the Han family. Even if they couldn't destroy it, they would still leave a thorn in the side of the loser. However, they have some

You’re too anxious.”

However, Xu Haoran could not help but refuse to agree at this time. He thought about it in his mind. Among his two sons, Xu Lin's temper was still impulsive and his eldest son Xu Qi was more gentle. Moreover, Xu Qi's cultivation level

He and Han Cheng, the son of Han Kui of Juque City, happened to be at the second level of Qi refining stage, so it would be best if the two of them could make peace without damaging their harmony. Thinking of this, Xu Haoran turned around and looked at

Han Kui, who was sitting next to him, smiled and said:

"Brother Han, why not let my son Xu Qi and your noble master Han Cheng compete?"

"Okay." Han Kui happily agreed. When he saw that Xu Haoran sent his eldest son Xu Qi, instead of Xu Lin who had reached the fourth level of Qi refining stage, he naturally understood what Xu Haoran meant and faced the pergola under the high platform.

Han Cheng inside said, although his voice was not loud, it spread throughout the audience:

"Cheng'er, why don't you have a discussion with your senior brother Xu Qi? It can also be considered as adding to the fun of this grand ceremony."

"Qi'er, you should go too. Let's compete with your junior brother Han Cheng and gain some experience." Xu Haoran also said with a "haha" from the high platform.

In the center of the central square of the Xu family stands a ring, which is where the disciples of the Xu family usually compete in martial arts or have year-end competitions. After Xu Haoran and Han Kui finished speaking, two strong figures soared into the sky from the crowd.

.Drawed a beautiful arc in the air and landed gently on the ring.

Xu Ziyan, who had just finished practicing, quietly appeared behind the crowd and looked towards the ring. At this time, Xu Qi and Han Cheng on the ring had already exchanged hands. Both of them were in the early stage of Qi refining period.

, I just learned some basic spells, and it didn't look good, nor did it last long, so the two of them tacitly chose to compete with each other.

Both of them have family backgrounds, and their understanding of swordsmanship is naturally unique. They were indistinguishable in an instant, and their subtleties attracted those with lower realms under the ring. They were mesmerized by the sight and felt.

This time it was not in vain, and I benefited a lot from my mastery of swordsmanship.

However, in the eyes of people with higher cultivation level, this kind of play is too childish. After just a few glances, they curled their lips and lost interest. Those who drank tea drank tea, those who ate fruits ate fruits, and even started to

Chatting in a low voice. There was a young man in the pergola on both sides. His mouth was wide open, and his eyes showed extreme disdain. He took a bite of the fruit in his hand with a "click", chewed it twice, and "pop"

He vomited it to the ground again and threw the fruit in his hand on the table.

Looking up at Zhou Ba on the high platform, and seeing Zhou Ba slightly nodding towards him, he stood up suddenly, rushed out of the pergola like a big bird, hovered over the ring, stretched out his right hand and grabbed the air.

The wood spirit energy in the air quickly condensed, and a giant tree appeared in front of his right hand, waving his hand and hitting it between Xu Qi and Han Cheng.

"Boom~~"

There was a roar, and the huge tree was inserted in the center of the ring. Xu Qi and Han Cheng were shocked and staggered back. They retreated to the edge of the ring and almost fell. The two raised their heads at the same time, glaring at the slowly falling sky.

Zhou Hao. Zhou Hao slowly landed on the top of the giant tree. He was dressed in white and had long hair shawl. He had his hands on his back and his clothes were fluttering. He shook his hair and looked extremely coquettish. He curled his lips and said

:

"Two senior brothers, what are you two doing? Sword fighting? You two are the elites of the Xu family in Zhongdu City and the Han family in Juque City. The master of the family, Ye Lianqi period, how can you be in the north?

The heroes of the North are playing things of acquired nature in front of them, is it because they look down on the heroes of the North?"

On the ring, the expressions of Xu Qi and Han Cheng changed. Xu Qi's eyes were full of anger, but Han Cheng's eyes revealed complexity.

Xu Haoran's face on the high platform fell. He turned to look at Zhou Ba, the head of the Zhou family in Canglang City. He was about to say something, but Zhou Ba might as well speak first:

"Hehehe, Brother Xu, as elders, we don't have to worry about the matters between their children. Let them get familiar with each other."

When Zhou Ba said this, Xu Haoran no longer had anything to say, but his heart was awe-inspiring. As the leader of the clan, he immediately felt the difference from Zhou Ba's words and attitude, and looked at Yang in Nanlin City.

Seeing that he also had a look of approval, Xu Haoran felt that Zhou Hao and Yang Rui did not come to test the integrity of his Xu family this time, but wanted to demonstrate. Do they have any guard of honor?

Xu Haoran's eyes scanned the pavilion where the people from Canglang City and Nanlin City were sitting, and found nothing unusual. There was a strange face, but he only had the cultivation level of the first level of the foundation building period. Xu Haoran also

Didn't take him to heart.

During Xu Haoran's slight hesitation, a figure rushed out from the crowd, like a gun, sharply rising into the sky, and nailed to the ring with a "grab" sound. He looked at the figure coldly.

Zhou Hao, who was standing on a giant tree, burst out with a strong voice:

"The Xu family in Zhongdu City, Xu Tianlang is waiting to teach"
