Chapter 278: The Founding Ceremony

In an instant, the situation reversed.

Just now, Zhao Ya was running in front and Xu Suanzi was chasing behind, but now it was Xu Suanzi who was running in front.

Seeing that Zhao Ya was getting closer and closer, Xu Suanzi couldn't help but grit his teeth, activated his Qinggong and body skills with all his strength, and ran towards the outside of the city like an arrow from a string.

In the blink of an eye, the guards pursued by Baihutang were left far behind.

But even so, Xu Suanzi still couldn't get rid of Zhao Ya after leaving the city.

Finally, after arriving at a mountain forest, Xu Suanzi suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhao Ya.

"Friend, why are you chasing me?"

Zhao Ya also stopped, stood not far away and looked at Xu Suanzi, then chuckled and said, "It seems you chased me first."

Xu Suanzi took a deep breath, "When I saw you noticed my whereabouts, I thought you were going to report to Baihu Hall, so I followed me."

"How do you know that I have discovered your whereabouts?" Zhao Ya was a little surprised.

"Because of the look in your eyes." Xu Suanzi said.

Zhao Ya was speechless.

He didn't expect Xu Suanzi to be so alert. He just glanced at him and he noticed something strange.

It seems that none of these people who are begging for food on the edge of a knife are easy-going people.

"But now I know that I misunderstood before, because with your Qinggong and body skills, you will definitely not be from Baihu Hall."

Xu Suanzi complimented openly and secretly, while looking around, looking for an opportunity to escape.

Zhao Ya laughed when he saw this, "Okay, you don't have to be so nervous. The reason why I looked at you in the inn was purely out of curiosity."

"After all, although you concealed it very well, your special walking habits still gave you away, because that is a habit that only people who are proficient in Qinggong and Shenfa can have."

"I'm chasing you now just because I want to ask you a few questions. I have no ill intentions towards you."

Xu Suanzi couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. The power Zhao Ya seemed to exude intentionally or unintentionally kept his nerves tense.

Although he didn't take action, Xu Suanzi could conclude just out of intuition that this man with excellent qinggong skills was also very strong.

Xu Suanzi would never want to be an enemy of such a person unless necessary.

So after hearing Zhao Yayan say that he had no ill intentions, Xu Suanzi breathed a sigh of relief and asked.

"What do you want to ask?"

"I just arrived in this foreign land today, so I want to know what the specific situation is here now." Zhao Ya asked.

People like Xu Suanzi must be very well-informed, otherwise they will get into big trouble if they go out and steal from the wrong people.

It's definitely not wrong to ask him about this kind of thing.

After Xu Suanzi heard Zhao Ya's words, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhao Ya suspiciously, and finally said.

"When you first arrived in Huawai, you also came to participate in the founding ceremony of the Thirteen Sects of Huawai?"

The opening ceremony?

A trace of doubt arose in Zhao Ya's heart.

Xu Suanzi also caught this point keenly and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Isn't this right? With your strength, some of the weaker true disciples among the Thirteen Huawai Sects are no match for you, so why are you still there?"

Maybe if you go to attend the opening ceremony of the mountain, you should directly recommend entering the mountain."

"So what exactly is this mountain opening ceremony?" Zhao Ya asked.

"To put it bluntly, it is the disciple recruitment conference held every three years by the Thirteen Huawai Sects and the major sects. At this time, warriors from the Huawai Land and even the surrounding areas will come, hoping to become the disciples of their choice.

The sect has made greater progress in martial arts."

Only then did Zhao Ya suddenly realize.

"So how are the sect forces in Huawai Land divided now?"

"Brother, it seems that you don't know anything. Don't you have any friends or relatives in the land of alienation?" Xu Suanzi said in surprise.

Zhao Ya shook his head, "No, I came here alone, without any source of information."

Xu Suanzi gave a thumbs up, "Awesome, let me tell you about it."

"First of all, the first tier naturally belongs to the Thirteen Sects of Huawai. These are large sects with long heritage and strong strength. They are also the most top-notch sects in the land of Huawai."

"Secondly, there are some major sects that are slightly weaker than the Thirteen Huawai Sects, such as Qinglian Gang, Qianlongfang, etc., which are all major sects that have become famous in recent years. Some of them are even inferior to the Thirteen Huawai Sects in terms of strength alone.

weak."

"Next are some medium-sized sects. Although these sects are inferior in overall strength, they are the largest in number. For example, the White Tiger Hall, Xishan Mansion, etc. are all medium-sized sects."

"Finally, there are some small sects that are not well-known. Some of them even have only a dozen people in total. But don't underestimate these small sects, because there are also extremely powerful ones among them."

After confirming that Zhao Ya had no ill intentions towards him, Xu Suanzi felt relieved and introduced the sect members of Huawai Land in detail.

After listening, Zhao Ya finally had a rough impression of the power structure of the Huawai Land.

Then he asked the most crucial question.

"How does Canglong Temple rank among the Thirteen Sects of Huawai?"

"Sangryu Temple?"

After hearing this name, Xu Suanzi looked at Zhao Ya with a very strange look.

"Friend, we have been talking for a long time. Are you old with Canglong Temple or do you plan to join Canglong Temple?"

"It's nothing, I'm just curious." Zhao Ya said.

"Then I have to give you a few words of advice. If you are old, forget it. If you plan to become a disciple, it is best not to choose Canglong Temple."

"Why?"

"Because Canglong Temple is now dead in name only."

This sentence was like a ground-breaking shock, so shocked that Zhao Ya's complexion couldn't help but change.

"What's going on? Doesn't Canglong Temple belong to the Thirteen Huawai Sects? How can it exist in name only?"

"It's true that it belongs to the Thirteen Huawai Sects, but you can't resist the internal divisions in Canglong Temple."

Speaking of this, Xu Suanzi sighed, "About twenty years ago, a peerless fierce man came out of Canglong Temple. When he was just thirty years old, he became enlightened and opened most of the meridians in his body.

, it can be said to be unprecedented.”

"At that time, Canglong Temple was in the limelight, but I didn't expect that the situation suddenly changed later. I don't know what happened. This peerless fierce man suddenly betrayed Canglong Temple."

"Following this, there was also a fight within Canglong Temple, which eventually split into two sects, the Northern and Southern Sects, which are now known as Southern Canglong and Northern Canglong."

"Although it is still very good in terms of strength alone, because of this split, the inheritance of Canglong Temple is incomplete. Coupled with various other reasons, Canglong Temple has been in a state of decline. Now it is the last among the Thirteen Huawai Sects.

Even during the opening ceremony of the mountain, some warriors would rather choose the Qianlongfang of the Qinglian Gang than worship at the Canglong Temple."

"Over time, without the fresh blood supply, the situation of Canglong Temple has become more and more unbearable, so I sincerely advise you, if there is really no other choice, it is better not to join Canglong Temple."

Zhao Ya fell silent after hearing this.

He never imagined that Canglong Temple, which his master Lu Dingtai cherished so much, would actually be reduced to this situation.

"Thank you for letting me know." After a while, Zhao Ya expressed his gratitude to Xu Suanzi.

Xu Suanzi smiled and said, "You're welcome. In fact, these things are not secrets. Anyone who is interested will find out after a little investigation."

"Then may I ask where the founding ceremony will be held?"

"After leaving White Tiger City, go westward. There is a mountain called Yulong Peak about 800 miles away. The opening ceremony of this mountain will be held in Yulong City under Yulong Peak. But if you want to go, you have to hurry up, because the mountain will be opened the day after tomorrow at the latest.

The ceremony is about to end."

"Okay, thank you!"

"Farewell!"

Xu Suanzi cupped his hands, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Zhao Ya stood silently for a moment, then turned around and returned to Baihu City.

After he entered the city, he discovered that there were significantly more soldiers patrolling the streets.

Not only that, warriors can be seen in many key positions.

It can be seen that the chase just now has alarmed the White Tiger Hall.

However, this seemingly tight defense could not defeat Zhao Ya at all.

With the help of the spirit turtle hibernation technique, Zhao Ya easily broke through the layers of defense and returned to the inn.

When he was booking a room, Zhao Ya specially booked a house with a window facing the street, so he didn't disturb other people at all and returned to the room through the window.

After returning to the room, Zhao Ya took a quick glance and saw the secret marks left on the door and the ground. He felt relieved knowing that no one had been here during this period.

What happened today also reminded Zhao Ya.

As far as body skills are concerned, almost no one in Dayan could catch up with him before, but a godly thief he met on the first day after arriving in Huawai Land was able to compete with him in Qinggong and body skills.

It can be seen that this place of Huawai is indeed worthy of its reputation. In terms of martial arts level, it is far from what Dayan can compare with.

You must not be arrogant and keep a low profile and be cautious.

In this way, Zhao Ya sat cross-legged and meditated all night, listening to the footsteps of patrolling soldiers on the street outside.

I checked out of the room early the next morning, then left Baihu City and headed to Jade Dragon City in the west.

For ordinary people in this era, eight hundred miles is simply a chasm, but for Zhao Ya, it was just a few hours of running at full strength.

It may take some time to identify the route at the beginning, but the further you go, the easier it becomes.

Because the number of pedestrians on the road has increased significantly, and most of these pedestrians are warriors.

These warriors gathered together in small groups, all running in the same direction.

Zhao Ya knew that these people should be going to Yulong City to participate in the opening ceremony.

So as long as you keep walking in the direction these people are walking, you will definitely find Jade Dragon City.

Because time was tight, Zhao Ya didn't care about day or night, and directly used Qinggong and Shenfa to fly along the mountain forest beside the road.

Because Zhao Ya's movements were extremely fast, most warriors didn't notice it at all.

But there are also some warriors who seem to be aware of it.

On the road three hundred miles away from Jade Dragon City, a group of people was walking slowly.

Leading the pack were several tall horses, each with a round horn on their head. At a glance, it was obvious that they were domesticated wild horned horses.

This kind of wildebeest runs fast and has strong endurance. The only disadvantage is that it is expensive and cannot be afforded by ordinary people.

At this moment, a graceful young man sat on top of a magnificent wildebeest.

This man was in his twenties, with red lips and white teeth, and a very good appearance.

But if you observe carefully, you will find that this man has an intimidating power in his movements, and he is actually a fifth-level warrior.

So when Zhao Ya flew through the mountains and forests beside the road at an extremely fast speed, most people didn't notice it, but this man suddenly turned his head and looked over with confusion.

But he only saw a few trembling branches, and nothing else.

The man urged his horse to the wildebeest in the center and said in a deep voice: "Father, have you seen it?"

The man in the middle is probably in his forties. He also has a very good temperament. Especially when he is looking forward, he has a somewhat majestic temperament.

He nodded when he heard this, "Of course I saw it."

"This human body method is really amazing." The young man sighed.

"Haha, Qing'er, now you know how many heroes there are in the world, so even you can't be proud!"

"Yes, father!"

"Hurry up and hurry up. This founding ceremony has attracted heroes from all over the world. Even if you can't join the Thirteen Huawai Sects, it's still good to see them!"

Just as these people were urging their horses to move, Zhao Ya had already arrived in front of Jade Dragon Peak.

This mountain peak is not very high, but it is beautiful. There is a city built at the foot of the mountain called Jade Dragon City.

When Zhao Ya came to the city gate, he saw people coming and going like crucian carp crossing the river, and most of them were warriors.

Among them, most of them are from the third and fourth realms, but there are also many warriors from the fifth realm.

These people spoke various dialects and crowded into the city like a vegetable market.

There will inevitably be friction during the whole process, but the tempers of these warriors who were arrogant in the past have all improved now.

No one cares about this. People only have one idea, which is to squeeze into the city and find a way to join the sect of their choice.

And if you dare to get into a fight during this process, not to mention wasting time, you will most likely be expelled from the city and lose your hard-won qualifications.

So no matter how big the hatred is, we have to wait until the founding ceremony is over.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Ya always had a feeling of déjà vu.

The sight of thousands of troops crossing the single-plank bridge really looks like the college entrance examination of later generations.

Although the crowd was crowded, with Zhao Ya's strength, he still easily got into the city through the gap.

After entering the city, I saw that there was nothing else on the streets, and they were all covered with various disguises.

"Xishan Mansion is the largest sect next to the Thirteen Huawai Sects. It has generous benefits. Once you are hired, you can enjoy the resources available to true disciples of other sects. It is your best choice."

"Jade Dragon Temple is a top-level sect with a long tradition and vigorous vitality. The temple master is young and powerful, and half of the thirty-six major meridians in the body have been opened. If there are any applicants, they will be personally guided by the temple master based on their performance."
