On the long stone steps, figures one after another are working hard to climb up.
Under the pressure of those Nascent Soul Patriarchs, they had to bear greater pressure with every step forward. They had to use all their magic power to block it, but few gave up, and no one was willing to stay where they were.
The Jiuyou List is only ranked once every ten years. Who doesn’t want to be on this list and enjoy the honors in the next ten years?
As for those disciples who gathered in the same place after the golden elixir was turned, every time they climbed a step, many people could be eliminated. They were similar in strength, and their number exceeded a hundred. The Jiuyou Ranking only took a hundred, and there were destined to be some.
Some people are on the list, some are off the list.
Everyone has similar abilities, and no one wants to be the one who fails, so the competition for this position is extremely fierce.
And in the frontmost positions, those second-generation immortals who have reached the sixth level of the Golden Core are also climbing bravely, not giving in to anyone.
It is inevitable that they will enter the top 100 of the Jiuyou Ranking, but the top ten is not certain. Even though they are still in the top ten, when the Xuanyin Sect, Soul Refining Sect and Puppet Sect take action, half of them will
They will all be squeezed out.
Sure enough, just a quarter of an hour later, several powerful auras approached from behind them, and then easily surpassed them.
Several people looked at their retreating figures and wanted to catch up, but under the huge pressure coming from above, it was extremely difficult to even take a step.
Yuan Zhi, who has the same surname as the ancestor of the Xuanyin Sect and a god-forming ancestor, is exactly fifty years old this year and has the strength of the seventh level of the Golden elixir. Yang Quan of the Puppet Sect is also the seventh level of the Golden elixir, and Zhang Qing of the Soul Refining Sect.
A month ago, I broke through to the eighth level of the Golden Core.
As for the top three, their strength is much greater than those three.
Liu Yang of the Xuanyin Sect, Ouyang Long of the Soul Refining Sect, and Qin Song of the Puppet Sect all have five spiritual vein golden elixirs, and the golden elixir of one attribute has reached the ninth rank, and its strength has long exceeded the limit of a single spiritual vein golden elixir.
.
Furthermore, the Holy Lady of the Xuanyin Sect has not taken action. Calculated this way, there are only three spots left for them in the top ten of the Jiuyou Ranking.
It has to be said that the difficulty of entering the top ten in this Jiuyou Ranking is the most difficult in history. Normally, with the sixth level of the Golden Core, you have a chance to reach the top of the list, but this time it is not even guaranteed to be in the top ten.
Liu Yang, Ouyang Long, and Qin Song were far ahead with their strength far exceeding the others, and were on the same stone steps very close to the peak.
This time, the three of them are determined to get the five Nine-turn Golden Pills.
They are all fellow practitioners of the Five Spiritual Meridians. They major in a certain spiritual vein after the golden elixir period. One of the five golden elixirs can greatly increase their mana. Although the other four are not suitable for the spiritual veins they major in,
It has no effect, but it can be exchanged with others.
Only golden elixirs of the same attribute can be fused and absorbed with each other, but the monsters hunted have various attributes, and various demon sects often exchange demon elixirs with different attributes.
Somewhere in the void, Li Yu looked at Nangong Chan beside him and asked, "Aren't you going yet?"
There is a time limit for climbing the level. After five hours, the competition will end. Of course, the sooner you climb the level, the better, so that you have enough time to challenge more levels.
Nangong Chan was about to go to the stone steps, but there was a figure faster than her.
A young man flew out from a crowd somewhere, quickly climbed up the stone steps, and soon surpassed those demonic disciples who were in the first level of the golden elixir. In just a few breaths, he defeated those who were in the sixth level of the golden elixir.
The second generation of immortals were all left behind.
This scene immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Judging from the speed at which he climbed the steps, it far exceeded that of the sixth level of the Golden Core. However, except for the saints of the Xuanyin Sect, all those with such strength in the Demonic Way were already on the stone steps.
That person was obviously a man, so naturally he couldn't be a saint from the Xuanyin Sect.
But what shocked people was more than that.
After this young man, four more figures flew out from the crowd. Like that young man, they were extremely powerful and easily surpassed everyone except Liu Yang, Ouyang Long and Qin Song, occupying four to eight positions.
Bit.
Afterwards, the speed at which they climbed the stairs, although not that exaggerated, was still moving forward step by step. It was only a matter of time before they caught up with the three people.
The sudden change caused some silence around the entire mountain peak.
Which sect of the devil is this powerful person from?
The strength of each of them is not weaker than Liu Yang and Qin Song, but those three are cultivated by their respective sects at all costs, even if they are from the Xuanyin Sect and the Soul Refining Sect.
Only one giant can be cultivated.
And there were five people who suddenly appeared just now, and whose strength directly matched those three people.
To be able to participate in the competition for the Nine Nether Rankings, their age cannot exceed fifty. Having such strength before the age of fifty has little to do with their talent, but only depends on the resources controlled by the sect.
And there is only one sect in the entire world of immortality that can do this, and that is the Tiandao Sect.
At this time, Liu Yang and others also recognized the identities of the five people.
Qin Song's expression changed and he said in shock: "Tang Yuan, Xue Tingfeng, Situ Jing, Ma Yuan, Liu Shan... why are these Tiandao Sect disciples here!"
They have been famous in the world of immortality for a long time. Thirty years ago, when Qin Ker and Nangong Chan were not born, they were already invincible at the same level, but this kind of invincibility was only limited to the devil.
Compared with disciples of the same age as those from Tiandao Sect, they are all inferior in terms of cultivation and magic weapons. These five people are of the same era as them, but they are always on top of them. They all need to hide when they meet outside.
Walking.
These people are now stronger than them, this is normal.
But the problem is, this is the Demonic Ceremony, how could they appear? They are not from the Demonic Path!
Although the elders of the demonic sects in charge of this ceremony did not know those people, they also realized that something was wrong. Elder Xuanyuan immediately looked at one person and said in a deep voice: "Chi Yan, what's going on with your Demon Flame Sect? Those
Who is he?"
He could see clearly just now that those people all flew out from the Demon Flame Sect disciples.
An old man with red hair, who was called "Red Flame" by Elder Xuanyuan, said with a smile: "Elder Xuanyuan, don't worry, those are my disciples of the Demon Flame Sect, and they are definitely no more than five years old.
Ten, it meets the requirements of the ceremony."
"Fuck your motherfucker!"
Before Elder Xuanyuan could speak, an elder in black from the Soul Refining Sect cursed angrily: "How powerful are you, the Demon Flame Sect, that you can cultivate five people under the age of fifty who are at the peak of the ninth level of the Golden Core? Do you think you are?"
Tiandao Sect?"
Although he was pointed at the nose and scolded, the red-haired old man was not angry at all. He still kept a smile on his face and said: "They are disciples of Tiandao Sect, but they all married disciples of my Demon Flame Sect as Taoist companions.
, he is considered to be half a disciple of the Demon Flame Sect, so why can’t he represent the Demon Flame Sect in the ceremony?”
"What?"
"A person from the Tiandao Sect married a disciple of your Demon Flame Sect?"
All the Nascent Soul experts were greatly surprised when they heard this.
Although only disciples of the ten sects of the Demonic Path can participate in the Demonic Dao Grand Ceremony, if you do not belong to the Demonic Dao yourself and your Taoist companion is a disciple of the Demonic Dao, the restrictions can be relaxed. In the previous Demonic Dao Ceremony, each sect has competed for rewards. Please
There is a precedent for prodigies from other forces to participate in the ceremony.
But this is the first time that Tiandao Sect has intervened in the Demonic Ceremony.
The righteous path has always disdained being associated with the demonic path, and the Tiandao Sect is the worst among them. The previous Tiandao sect explicitly prohibited its disciples from becoming partners with the demonic path, but this time, they actually let such talented people marry demons.
A disciple of Yanmen?
And their purpose for doing this is obvious, it is nothing more than for those high-level demon pills.
Although the demon pill is precious, with the status of Tiandao Sect, to do such a thing is undoubtedly to lower one's status and refresh the bottom line of the leader of the righteous path.
No, today’s righteous sects no longer recognize Tiandao Sect as their leader.
The once aloof Tiandao Sect actually colluded with the Demon Flame Sect, which was beyond their expectations.
They were vaguely aware that today's world of immortality is undergoing a change that has not happened in a thousand years. The righteous path has changed. After this ceremony, the demonic path may also make waves...
But these are things for the future, and the current issue is the current battle for the Nine Nether List.
If there are five in the top ten on the Nine Nether List of the Demonic Path, or even the top five are all disciples of the Tiandao Sect, the entire Demonic Path will lose face, and the demon pills that each sect has gathered together will be given to others in vain.
The Demon Flame Sect has betrayed the Demonic Way. Elder Xuanyuan's face darkened and he said: "This does not comply with the rules of the grand ceremony. The five of them cannot be on the Nine Nether List."
The red-robed old man from the Demon Flame Sect asked: "May I ask fellow Taoist Xuanyuan, which rule of the ceremony does this not comply with?"
Elder Xuanyuan was speechless for a moment.
When each sect set the rules for the ceremony, they did not expect that Tiandao Sect would do such bottomless things in the future. Apart from Tiandao Sect, even Kunlun Shushan would not be able to cultivate such geniuses in a short period of time.
If the rules are temporarily modified, it will undoubtedly tell everyone that the devil cannot afford to lose.
Those who pay attention to the Nine Nether List are not only the demonic path, but the entire world of immortality.
Even if the ceremony is to be restructured, it will only start from the next session.
If the rules are not changed, the biggest benefits of this ceremony will be taken away by the people of Tiandao Sect.
The Nascent Soul Patriarchs of various sects could not make up their minds for a moment.
Several people from the Xuanyin Sect, the Soul Refining Sect, and the Puppet Sect sent messages to ask for instructions from the ancestor of the sect's transformation of gods, and the instructions they received were that everything should remain as before.
Although this was not the outcome they wanted to see, the actions of Tiandao Sect and Demon Flame Sect were indeed within the rules allowed by the Grand Ceremony. They asked the elders of Demon Flame Sect to provide evidence, and they directly transferred the Taoist companions of those people
I brought it over, obviously prepared for it.
Not far from these Yuanying Patriarchs, Li Yu was also watching the development of the situation.
Unexpectedly, the wealthy Tiandao Sect was also interested in those demon pills.
Since the Fairy Dao Conference, other sects of the Right Path have drawn a clear line with them, and their behavior has become more and more unrestrained.
They had done this kind of thing before in Kunlun, but now they didn't even let the devil go.
But in this matter, the Demonic Dao is also responsible. Who made such an important ceremony full of bugs? Those disciples of the Tiandao Sect don't have to pay anything. They just need to marry a few female cultivators from the Demonic Flame Sect, and everything will be done afterwards.
You can abandon them at will, or even pretend to be Taoist companions.
The key lies in the cooperation of the Demon Flame Gate.
As a Demonic Sect, either Tiandao Sect has given Demon Flame Sect any benefits, or they have already taken refuge in Tiandao Sect.
Li Yu was originally thinking that it would be inappropriate for him, a disciple of the righteous path, to compete for something like the Talent List in the Demonic Path, but now he has no worries.
He flew to Elder Xuanyuan and put forward his idea.
Elder Xuanyuan looked at him in astonishment and asked, "My little friend, you want to try it too?"
Li Yu smiled and said, "Join in the fun."
Relying on his friendship with Li Yu, he would have agreed to any condition that was not excessive, but the ceremony had its own rules. There were so many strong men from other factions around him, and he could not control them alone.
He could only shake his head and said, "But you are not a disciple of the devil."
Li Yu pointed to the people at the front of the stone steps and said, "They are not either."
Elder Xuanyuan explained: "Although they are not, their Taoist companions are. There are such rules in the ceremony."
Li Yudao: "My fellow Taoist is also a disciple of the devil."
Elder Xuanyuan was stunned and said uncertainly: "Are you a Taoist companion?"
Have he and the Saint already progressed to this point?
Li Yu said embarrassedly: "Actually, we have already made a private decision for life..."
When Nangong Chan came over, he was stunned on the spot.
When did they make a lifelong commitment?
She hasn't agreed yet!
No, he didn’t mention it either!
After Elder Xuanyuan came to his senses, he was surprised and happy, and asked: "When did you and the Saint..."
Li Yu explained: "It's He Qing'er..."
Anyway, Qing'er is not here. When I pass by her later, I can ask her to confess.
Nangongchan's expression recovered, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Elder Xuanyuan's surprised expression instantly turned to disappointment: "He Qing'er..."
This kind of thing was originally going to be verified by Qing'er, but she was still on the stone steps now, so he could only confirm it with her afterwards. And he didn't doubt Li Yu's words at all. In just one month, the little girl had gone from the Qi refining stage to
After getting so much from the Five Spiritual Meridians Golden Pill, you must have paid something back.
He said to Li Yu: "In that case, you go ahead."
The Yuanying Patriarchs of the other sects also had no objections.
This Demonic Dao Ceremony is already chaotic enough. Five geniuses from Tiandao Sect have appeared. The appearance of another Kunlun Young Master is not something that is difficult to accept.
They were surprisingly unable to see through Li Yu's cultivation. They didn't know if he had any powerful magic weapon or if he had practiced some mysterious techniques.
According to the information possessed by Demon Dao, Li Yugang had formed the elixir from the Five Spirit Veins not long ago, but if Xuanyin Sect asked him to refine the elixir, he would definitely have to pay a big price, and it was very likely that he would be given the demon elixir. And based on his status in Kunlun,
Other resources will also be obtained, such as the golden elixirs of the elders who have returned to the ruins. I am afraid only he himself knows how strong he is.
After getting permission, Li Yu and the demon girl flew to the stone steps together.
The two of them walked forward and soon arrived at Qing'er's location.
Li Yu set up a soundproof barrier and sent a message: "Qing'er, remember, no matter who asks you when you go out, just say that we have made a lifelong commitment and have become a Taoist couple."
The girl was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief on her face. Then she took Li Yu's arm, looked at Nangong Chan gratefully, and said, "Thank you, Saint, Qing'er will come back to see you often..."
