(Thanks to brother ‘yhaosheng withering’ for the reward! Thank you, brother!)
Shangguan Quan's face was full of anger. Not only was his magic weapon damaged, but a defensive treasure was cut into pieces.
Shangguan Quan still had his trump card in his hand but had not used it when he was stopped by his fellow disciples.
Li Xiu also looked at Shangguanquan warily. The elder of the Huanhe Sect happened to stand between the two and stopped the fight.
"Fellow Taoist Li Xiu has amazing magical powers, and the Huanhe Sect is willing to be defeated!"
The elder of the Huanhe Sect turned around and quickly transmitted a few words before Shangguan Quan sighed and put away the trump card in his hand.
Seeing that Shangguan Quan stopped taking action, the sword wheel formed by the 365 broken sword pieces above Li Xiu's head also flew to Li Xiu's feet.
Three hundred and sixty-five broken pieces of the sword collided and combined at Li Xiu's feet, and the next moment they turned into a huge silver-gold sword.
Li Xiu stepped on the giant silver-gold sword and flew back to the round jade platform.
"I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Li to be a sword cultivator! This is the first time Tan has seen a Fellow Daoist who can wield such a huge flying sword." Tan Che said in surprise.
At this time, there were only five people left on the circular jade platform, but these people looked at Li Xiu with a bit more fear.
"No wonder Fellow Daoist Shangguanquan was defeated so quickly. It turns out that Fellow Daoist Li's flying sword was mixed with that piece of Geng Essence!" Sun Hui from the Qingzhong Sect looked at the flying sword at Li Xiu's feet and said.
Everyone turned their attention to Li Xiu's feet again. Ma Rui of the Tiansha Sect glanced at the golden giant sword at Li Xiu's feet with his peripheral vision, and his face looked a little ugly.
…
"In this red bead competition, fellow Taoist Li Xiu of the Yuling Sect wins! Now, please invite fellow Taoist Tan Che of the White Water Sword Sect and fellow Taoist Ma Rui of the Tiansha Sect, who have drawn orange beads, to come to the ring to compete!" Yun Jizi said loudly.
Tan Che glanced at the thin young man Ma Rui, who jumped into the ring. The latter smiled sinisterly and slowly floated into the ring.
On the stands, all the Yuanying elders were still stuck in the fight between Li Xiu and Shangguan Quan.
Many people are transmitting news about Li Xiu's flying sword magical power and the unparalleled giant sword at Li Xiu's feet.
"Friend Taoist Mo Li, you are well-informed! Does Li Xiuyu's magical power of flying swords come from the Giant Sword Sect?" Huang Yue from the Qingzhong Sect asked in a low voice.
In the stands, Mo Li suddenly became the focus. All the Nascent Soul old monsters all listened attentively.
"The flying swords of the Giant Sword Sect are mainly heavy and cannot be split into hundreds of parts.
The branch of the Sword Alliance in Baidu Mountain has several sects that have many flying swords. It is said that the disciples of Xuanjian Sect have as many as thirty-six flying swords!
Although Xuanjian Sect is known as the number one sword sect in the Southern Region, none of their disciples can control hundreds of fragments like this!" Li Li shook his head and said.
"Haha, I have heard that there is such a sword sect that specializes in the magical power of splitting swords!" Venerable Wei, who had been watching the competition in the field, suddenly said.
"Oh? Please ask Venerable Wei to clear up our doubts.
Venerable Wei stroked his beard and said leisurely:
"It is recorded in the Qixuan Palace classics that thousands of years ago there was a hidden sect that could wield more than 300 flying swords at the same time to attack the enemy.
However, that sect has not produced a god-transforming sword cultivator for thousands of years! He has long since disappeared into the human world!"
Dongmen Yan and Han Jin looked at each other at this moment, both of them were shocked by Li Xiu's mystery.
…
Waves of blue sword energy are like fire and waves. Tan Che's sword energy is like a large-scale attack. If someone is swept by the sword energy, he will fall into the blue-white sword array.
In Li Xiu's thousand eyes, he could see the mist and air waves released by Tan Che being vaguely mixed with the light of the sword.
The sword formation of this white sword sect is mainly based on water mist sword energy, and the sword light is invisible without leaving a trace, but it does have some tricks.
In the white mist, sword energy occasionally shot towards Ma Rui and the strange refining corpse.
Ma Rui had a dark vine armor on his body. One hand held the square vine shield to protect himself, and the other hand held the imperial envoy's inverted green-black child's head lantern.
This magic weapon was extremely strange. A pair of beast eyes on the child's head stared closely at Tan Che. There was also a unicorn on top of his head. The unicorn hit the ground of the arena, making a small crater in the arena.
It has a green face and fangs, and the head is facing down. The base of the head is connected to a rattan rope and tied to the short and thick handle.
A stream of ghoulish evil energy seeped out from the head of this lantern, making this magic weapon even more weird.
White mist filled the air, and Tan Che's sword array was formed. The sword energy loomed and struck Ma Rui's rattan armor, making the sound of gold and iron clashing.
The rattan armor on Ma Rui's body is also a top-notch defensive magic weapon. Although he was attacked by sword energy, the chaotic sword energy could not cut through Ma Rui's magic weapon.
On the contrary, Ma Rui's corpse mandrill was constantly being attacked by the sword energy and suddenly went crazy.
The corpse mandrill directly broke through the cloak on its back, and its pair of gray-black fleshy wings spread out, and everyone could see clearly the whole picture of the corpse mandrill.
This is exactly the Yaksha mandrill from the Ten Thousand Cave Cave! This mandrill has a mask on its face, and several parts of its body are covered with protective gear made of gold and iron.
This Yaksha Corpse Mandrill was of a very high level, and its fleshy wings had a faint flash of silver light. All the elders in the stands exclaimed in surprise.
"This is Silver Winged Yaksha!"
"With this corpse demon, who is this person's opponent?"
Yu Lu from Tiansha Sect laughed heartily.
"Hehehehe, this Yaksha mandrill was caught by us at a great cost!"
Fairy Biyue's face was gloomy. This Tiansha Sect Ma Rui is much more difficult to deal with than the others! I'm afraid there will be some changes in the selection meeting this time.
…
On the ring, Ma Rui's thin figure flashed and jumped onto Yasha Mandrill's back. The lantern in his hand was like a fishhook with a line attached, the headbutt part was on the floor of the ring, but the handle was flying in the air.
Huh-huh!
The horned hammer was lifted up by Ma Rui, like a meteor hammer or a pendulum. Ma Rui used the weapon to hit Tan Che in the white sword array.
This meteor hammer was extremely spiritual, and the face on it was more like a ghost weapon. Tan Che was stared at by it, and he was left and right in the sword formation.
The sword energy was unable to cause any trouble to Mandrill and Ma Rui. On the contrary, Tan Che was attacked by Mandrill and Lantern Head Hammer and was forced to dodge in all directions, making it difficult to resist.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Tan Che shouted and admitted defeat.
"Orange bead competition, fellow Daoist Ma Rui from the Tiansha Sect won!"
Ma Rui flew back to the round jade platform, and several people looked at him with some fear. When Li Xiu came, Ma Rui deliberately threatened Li Xiu.
Li Xiu just smiled.
"The next battle between yellow beads will be between Fairy Biluo from Qianhuan Sect and Gong Fang from Baidu Mountain.
Please get out of here, two fellow Taoists!"
Perhaps it was because Tiansha Sect Ma Rui's corpse mandrills and magic weapons were too shocking before, but in this competition, the magical powers used by the two men were quite satisfactory and did not arouse the surprise of the Nascent Soul stage old monsters in the stands.
Gong Fang from Baidu Mountain only lasted for a cup of tea before he was forced out of the arena by Fairy Biluo's illusion.
This is the end of the second round of competition.
There are still Li Xiu, Ma Rui from Tiansha Sect, Fairy Biluo from Qianhuan Sect, and Sun Hui from Qingzhong Sect who has a bye on the ring jade platform.
Yun Jizi flew down from the stands, and there were only four people left out of the thirteen selections, so there was no need to draw lots for byes.
"Out of the four Taoists, four of them can choose their opponents in the next round. If there is no one to choose, Pindao will draw lots to decide which ones!" Yun Jizi said.
When the four of them heard Yun Jizi's words, Tiansha Sect Ma Rui looked at the three of them with a sneer. Fairy Biluo lowered her eyes, but Sun Hui of the Qingzhong Sect glanced at Li Xiu, as if he wanted to choose.
Same as him.
Seeing that the four people were silent, Yun Jizi took out four spiritual beads from his storage bag.
"Alas! Let's ask some fellow Taoists to draw lots and decide!" Yun Jizi sighed and offered the spirit pearl in his hand.
"Wait a minute! Li wants to fight with Daoist fellow Ma Rui. I wonder if fellow Taoist Ma Rui dares to challenge?"
