On the ninth day of the third lunar month, the clouds and the moon covered Huanyue Peak.
The clouds and fog in the entire Huanyue Mountain are the thickest here, and the mist makes the scorching sun above the head look like a fantasy moon.
The peaks here are under the clouds and mist. When you look up, you can see the waxing sun like the moon. Several surrounding peaks rise straight into the sky, but only the Phantom Moon Peak is under the clouds.
Several mysterious illusion formations are arranged around an empty square in Huanyue Peak.
The entire arena is in the shape of an octagon, with the Tai Chi Bagua formation on the ground shining brightly. There are statues of alien beasts on the eight sides of the water chestnut, and the eight alien beast statues are faintly arranged in a formation. Each of the alien beast statues has a crystal in its mouth.
There is a stand with flashing runes suspended above the ring, and a layer of magic array light curtain wraps the ring inside.
More than thirty Nascent Soul Stage monks were sitting on the suspended stands.
Yun Jizi, dressed in white robes, stood in the center of the stand. Venerable Wei from the Qixuan Palace sat on the main seat of the stand.
Yan from the East Gate of the Yuling Sect, Han Jin, Mo Li from the Baidui Mountain, Qing Yun, Li Huo from the Ancient Yan Sect, Lu Yan, a middle-aged monk from the Baishui Sword Sect and Qu Wanren, and Yu Lu from the Tiansha Sect.
The elders of these sects sat in their respective positions in the stands.
The elders of other small and medium-sized sects, such as Huang Yue of the Qingzhong Sect and He Yang of the Danyang Sect. These people all sit at the bottom.
Yunjizi casts the sound transmission spell:
"Today is a grand gathering where our Yuan Luozhou colleagues gather together! Venerable Wei from Qixuan Palace is in Yuanluo State to select the comrades who will enter the Seven Spirit Island grand gathering.
I remember that the last selection meeting was also hosted by Venerable Wei. Last time, our Yuan Luo Province produced an outstanding person like Fairy Lingyi! She was appointed by the Qixuan Palace to enter Qiling Island, and two people from our Yuan Luo Province were shortlisted.
Unparalleled scenery!
Haha, this time we, the thirteen comrades in the early stage of Yuan Ying in Yuan Luozhou, have to fight desperately for a spot!
Pindao, please tell me the rules of this selection meeting!"
…
Li Xiu sat cross-legged on a huge ring-shaped jade platform, and twelve people of the same level as him were also sitting around the ring.
This ring-shaped jade platform is under the stands, and the elders of each sect can see the dozen of them at a glance.
The power of divine consciousness swept over these people, and Li Xiu really felt some powerful mana fluctuations.
When Li Xiu swept through the crowd, these people also explored the surrounding comrades.
The stronger the power of spiritual consciousness, the less likely it will be discovered by others.
Li Xiu can feel the power of other people's spiritual consciousness, but others cannot sense the detection of his spiritual consciousness.
Apart from Li Xiu himself, among the monks in this circle, a tall, thin man in gray clothes had the strongest magic power and was also the most obscure. Judging from his clothing, he was a monk from the Huanhe Sect.
A woman diagonally across from Li Xiu also had outstanding spiritual consciousness. That woman was a strong contender in this selection meeting, and she was also a female cultivator from the Qianhuan Sect who had become famous in Yuanluo Prefecture in recent years.
Occasionally, evil consciousness swept across Li Xiu's body. The thin young man surnamed Ma from the Tiansha Sect was also a very energetic person in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
When Li Xiu saw this person, he also looked at Li Xiu with a sneer.
Yun Jizi's voice sounded again.
"This time, thirteen people were selected and drawn in pairs to fight each other. One person got a bye.
After six people are eliminated, we still draw lots to catch pairs, and one person gets a bye!
The remaining four Taoists can choose their opponents, or they can continue to draw lots to decide their opponents!
Hahaha, there are no rules in the competition! But if you get out of the Phantom Moon Peak, you will automatically give up!
In addition, my fellow Taoists and I are all watching the battle between fellow Taoists in the air. If the elders of any faction rescue their fellow disciples, that faction will automatically admit defeat!
Of course, if you are not strong enough, it is best to admit defeat and give up!
Now it’s up to you fellow Taoists to draw lots to decide your opponent!”
Li Xiu had already known the rules of the selection meeting from other people. At this time, Li Xiu and the twelve monks of the same level were all looking above their heads.
With the sound of bells and drums, a cloud of milky white cloud fell from the stands, and the cloud slowly fell towards the center of the ring.
There were faintly dancing spiritual beads of various colors in the clouds and mist. Some of the thirteen people had already become impatient, and several big hands made of spiritual energy grabbed at the jumping spiritual beads of various colors.
Li Xiu also caught a spiritual bead. This spiritual bead was glowing orange and vaguely connected to a bearded man on the left.
The man with the beard also held the orange spirit bead in his hand. He looked at Li Xiu with unkind eyes. When Li Xiu looked at this man, the man with the beard smiled and stopped looking at Li Xiu.
Soon all thirteen people caught a spirit bead, and Yun Jizi from the stands said via voice:
"The spirit beads are divided into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and black. The fellow Taoist who drew the black spirit beads will have a bye in this round. The other fellow daoists who drew the same color spirit beads will enter the Huanyue Peak to compete.
Please invite the fellow Taoist who has drawn the red spirit bead to compete!"
There are two red spiritual beads, which were obtained by a middle-aged man and a young man in purple.
"The first red bead competition will pit Taoist Taoist Tong Dian from Tongjiapu against Taoist Sun Hui from Qingzhongmen!"
"The second orange bead competition pits fellow Taoist Li Xiu from Yuling Sect against fellow Taoist Shi Ji from Poisonous Spring Ridge!"
"The third yellow pearl competition, Fairy Biluo of Qianhuan Sect versus Taoist Fellow Kong Wenfeng of Tianqu Mountain!"
"The fourth Green Pearl Competition, Fellow Taoist Shangguanquan of the Huanhe Sect versus Fellow Taoist Luyang of the Danding Sect!"
"The fifth blue bead competition, Taoist Taoist Tan Che from the White Water Sword Sect versus Taoist Taoist Yuan Hong from Fengdu Ling."
"The sixth Purple Pearl Competition, Fairy Lingxuan of the Ancient Flame Sect versus Taoist Taoist Ma Rui of the Tiansha Sect."
"Fellow Taoist Gong Fang of Baidu Mountain who drew the black bead has a bye and will directly enter the next round of competition."
After Yun Jizi finished talking about the opponents, everyone on the ring-shaped jade platform also looked at their opponents.
Li Xiu looked at Fairy Lingxuan, a girl from the Ancient Flame Sect. This person was going to face Ma Rui, a skinny young man from the Tiansha Sect. It was considered the two major parties in the first round!
Judging from the mana fluctuations in this woman's body, Li Xiu could tell that she was much inferior to that Ma Rui! No wonder some people rumored that the strength of this generation's disciples of the Ancient Flame Sect was not as strong as the previous generation's Fairy Lingyi.
In terms of spiritual consciousness, Fairy Bi Luo from Qian Huan Sect has the strongest consciousness! This woman is currently passing by Li Xiu and Qiuxu Shiji.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The middle-aged monk named Tong Dian stood up, and the young man in purple on the other side also stood up on the ring jade platform.
The two people jumped off the Huanyue Peak Arena from the ring one after another, and the selection meeting began.
The middle-aged monk wields a large sword made of blue crystal stone, and protects himself with a bronze mirror in front of him. The figure of Sun Hui of the Qingzhongmen is reflected in the bronze mirror. This bronze mirror magic weapon is quite extraordinary.
On the other side, a gleaming golden chime appeared in front of the young man in purple.
Occasionally, there is a flash of light above the chimes, which makes a buzzing and trilling sound.
Tong Dian didn't say anything, he made a gesture of invitation to the young man in purple.
"Fellow Taoist Tong, I've been offended!"
Sun Hui, a young man in purple clothes, flicked the magic power in his hand, and several rays of magic power were injected into the chime.
The bells rang softly, with bursts of mysterious sounds, and the sound waves released by the chimes formed a white forbidden halo.
The young man in purple clothes disappeared in this halo, but Tong Dian, the wielder of the crystal sword, did not panic at this moment. The small mirror in front of him gradually stabilized as it flipped over.
The mirror light shines on Tong Dian's upper right position, and the reflection reflected in it is the Sun Hui of the Chime Bell Gate.
The crystal knife flew out, and where the bronze mirror illuminated it, a chime blocked it in front of the crystal knife.
When~~~
Trills reverberated, and the chime was struck backwards by the crystal knife.
The crystal knife turned quickly at this moment and headed towards Sun Hui's hiding place.
Sun Hui stretched out his hand and patted the chime bell, and he directed the chime bell to hit Tong Dian.
Just watch the outermost bell of the chime collide with Tong Dian, and a smaller chime bell stands in front of the young man in purple.
Tong Dian's crystal knife struck the smaller chime bell again, and he dodged to avoid the cover of the larger chime bell.
When~~~
There was another sound of impact, and a smaller chime fell out of the trumpet chime again.
Two chimes hit Tong Dian, and Tong Dian dodged again.
The two exchanged offense and defense. Tong Dian's Crystal Sword Control was extremely domineering and powerful, and more and more chimes were shelling out in front of the young man in purple, all the same from big to small.
…
"Fellow Taoist Tong, haha! Your Tongjiabao Heavenly Crystal Sword is indeed well-deserved!" Qing Zhongmen Huang Yue chuckled softly in the stands.
"Huang Yue, the ringing magic bell of the Chime Bell Gate is equally powerful!" the ancestor of Tongjiabao said with approval on his face.
