Wang Tiezhu looked at the white jade bottle in front of him and swallowed secretly.
You know, according to the previous rules of the competition, the top three with the highest scores each only had one Heart Sword Pill, but he got three by himself!
"Senior Brother, isn't this bad? My score shouldn't be among the top three, right?" Wang Tiezhu said this, but his eyes were fixed on the jade bottle containing the Heart Sword Pill.
Seeing his appearance, Zhou Huaying just smiled lightly.
"It doesn't matter, due to the interference of the Demon Sect, the sect has re-formulated the reward rules. You are the well-deserved first place. In addition, this year's Sword Heart Lotus has a bumper harvest, so the number of Heart Sword Pills is far more than in previous years. I will give you
, you can rest assured and continue."
"Reformulated the reward rules?" Wang Tiezhu scratched his head, feeling a little curious.
"I wonder who the next few are?"
Zhou Huaying said with a smile: "Liu Weizhi and Zhang Tingruo tied for fifth, Ye Huanxi ranked fourth, Lu Qinan ranked third, and the second place is a disciple of Third Master Uncle named Xu Jianxing."
"Xu Jianxing?" Wang Tiezhu looked puzzled. He had no doubts about the ranking of the next few.
That kid Lu Qinan dared to take action against the God of Confusion, and it was reasonable to get third place, but he had no impression of this "Xu Jianxing" at all, so how could he get second place?
Seeing his confused look, Zhou Huaying started to explain.
"Xu Jianxing did not enter the central mountain forest. During the first twenty days of the competition, he stayed in a cave on the periphery and lived happily. Near the end of the competition, he came out to find a low-level demon cultivator to interact with.
It’s just that at that time, Leng Ming’s plan had been launched, and you were all trapped in the Thousand Souls Netherland. He couldn’t find the demon cultivator along the way, so he went deep into the central mountain forest.”
"At the junction of the central mountain forest and the outer periphery, he met a patrolling demon cultivator, whose level was much higher than his own, so he escaped with the help of the air-controlling wind-walking talisman.
But the power of the talisman was limited after all. Near the sect's station, he was chased by the demon cultivator. Finally, he used himself as bait and sent out the spirit sword, so the second and third uncles were able to understand the place of trial.
Something unexpected happened and I arrived in time to save you."
After listening, Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but be in awe of this junior fellow student named "Xu Jianxing", and he must get to know him if he has the opportunity.
"So, Junior Brother Xu's injury is serious?" Wang Tiezhu asked worriedly.
"Well, I'm still in a coma now, but I haven't hurt my roots, so it's not a serious problem. I can recover after a few more days of training." Zhou Huaying said.
"That's good, that's good."
Wang Tiezhu nodded, it would be a pity if a person like this were to lose his life because of this.
As he was thinking this way, Zhou Huaying continued: "According to the previous reward method, the top three will receive a medium-grade spiritual weapon, but in view of your performance, the sect has decided to let you enter the Tianjian Cave and get a selected spirit weapon.
Sword of opportunity."
"Tianjian Cave?"
Wang Tiezhu was confused again. Why had he never heard of this place?
"Well, the Heavenly Sword Cave is located under the Heavenly Sword Hall at Lingtai Peak. It contains the spiritual swords of the deceased predecessors of the sword sects of the past dynasties, and their grades range from medium to top grade.
The spiritual swords among them are all magical and extraordinary, even the middle-grade spiritual swords have their own uniqueness. But after you enter, you cannot choose freely, but the spiritual swords choose you."
"That's it!"
Wang Tiezhu was overjoyed. He had been thinking about where to get a spiritual sword before. Wouldn't this opportunity come?
After understanding these things, he asked about the situation of Leng Ming and Huoshen, and Zhou Huaying also told him the information they currently had.
"Leng Ming was extremely stubborn and refused to reveal where he got the news about the sect competition. In the end, he had no choice but to let Elder Qin Ming use the soul-searching technique.
But I didn’t expect that his soul would be banned. Once the soul body was separated, it would instantly turn into ashes. In the end, I only knew that the person who planted the ban on him was about the same strength as Elder Qin Ming.”
"Ultimate wilderness?!"
"It should be said that it is at least an extremely desolate environment."
Wang Tiezhu frowned when he heard this. The person who leaked the news was actually so powerful!
But why would he reveal the news to Leng Ming?
If he really wanted to get rid of the new generation of disciples of the Litian Sword Sect, wouldn't it be a matter of a blink of an eye for him to do it himself?
Zhou Huaying did not notice anything strange about Wang Tiezhu and continued: "As for the confused god you mentioned, according to what the second and third uncles said, they did not see anything consistent at the scene, and they returned to the place of the incident afterwards.
, and no strange aura was detected.”
"But judging from what you said, this confusing god is good at using illusions. The colorful light it spits out should be the 'mirage light' emitted by the 'mirage pearl'. It should have used this method to hide itself at that time.
Only then could I escape."
"Mirage? Mirage?"
Wang Tiezhu was a little helpless because it was something he had never heard of.
"Legend has it that in the depths of the East China Sea, there is a strange monster. It holds a magic bead in its mouth and can emit colorful lights. As soon as people see this light, their wishes will come true. This monster is a mirage, and the words in its mouth
The bead is the mirage bead, and the colorful light is the glow you see."
"Of course, you also know that the so-called dreams come true are just hallucinations that people have after seeing mirages. They can arouse the desires deep in the human heart and then express them in the form of illusions.
This ability has nothing to do with the realm of strength, but only with people's desires. The deeper the desire, the more realistic the illusion, and the more difficult it is for people trapped in it to break free. You can wake up from the illusion in time, which shows that your heart is
There are no distracting thoughts and the Taoist mind is clear, which is really good!"
Listening to Zhou Huaying who kept praising him, Wang Tiezhu blushed a little.
He knew in his heart that he was able to escape from the illusion that confused God, not because he had no distracting thoughts in his mind, but because he had a piercing eye that could break through illusions and see through all things.
If it hadn't been for it, he would have been trapped in an illusion like everyone else, tied to a ghost tree, and eventually turned into Leng Ming's training nourishment.
"Anyway, you should meditate and cultivate first. When Xu Jianxing wakes up, we will arrange for you to enter the Tianjian Cave."
After giving Wang Tiezhu a few more instructions, Zhou Huaying turned around and left Xiaoranju.
Looking at the jade bottle containing the Heart Sword Pill in front of him, Wang Tiezhu did not choose to take it now, but put it into the Xutian Realm with his backhand.
After thinking for a moment, he took out a few more items from the Qiankun bag and arranged them on the table.
These items are nine dog pictures, several talismans and a sword talisman.
The sword talisman was entrusted by Senior Brother Lu Mingqi to Senior Sister Ye Tianyao as a gift. It is said that his three sword intentions are stored in it.
