Chapter 368: The competition for the ranking is heating up
"Let me take charge of the construction work in the core area?"
In the Jiaxu stronghold, Li Fan looked at Xue Mu and others who suddenly visited, and was slightly startled.
I just thought about it and then decisively refused.
"I'm not being modest. During the assessment at Langhuan Academy, my level of affinity with Tianxuan Mirror was just average."
"This point, Taoist friend Xue Mu can vouch for me."
"I accept your kindness, but my ability is limited and I cannot bear such an important responsibility."
"Senior Jiang's formation level is much higher than mine, and he is highly respected. I can see that there is no more suitable candidate than him."
Li Fan said sincerely.
The Master of the Nascent Soul Formation named Jiang Qigui looked at the unkind eyes of the monks around him and quickly responded: "Fellow Taoist Li Fan is joking. Your contribution is obvious to all, how dare I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Fan interrupted him with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, don't get me wrong, everything Li said is true and sincere."
"As we all know, the final construction process of the Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation requires communication with the central formation hub to facilitate continuous debugging in the future."
"This is indeed not what I am good at, and I am not deliberately refusing."
Looking at Jiang Qigui who was hesitant, Li Fan added: "I understand your worries, Senior Jiang. The construction of the outer and inner magic circles has put in a lot of effort but relatively little contribution."
"As for the central core area, it doesn't actually require much effort, but the contribution it can make is relatively much greater."
"Taking over the hosting duties at this time is suspected of forcibly picking peaches. You are afraid of being accused in the future, right?"
Jiang Qigui's old face blushed slightly when he saw Li Fan speaking out what was on his mind without any concealment.
Just as he was about to explain, he heard Li Fan say: "So that everyone knows that I am now half dead."
"The so-called ranking on the gold medal list..."
Li Fan paused to resolve the slight resentment rising in his heart.
He said calmly: "I don't care at all."
"The only thing I hope for is to make as many contributions as possible before I die."
"All I consider is the most efficient way to build the formation."
"So there is no need for Fellow Daoist Jiang to decline."
"Who else would you rather have such an important responsibility?"
After saying that, Li Fan glanced around to express his feelings.
Jiang Qigui's face turned red after hearing Li Fan's heartfelt words.
Take a deep breath and bow deeply towards Li Fan.
"In this case, I will be disrespectful!"
"I will definitely live up to the high expectations of fellow Taoists."
Jiang Qigui said in a deep voice.
Li Fan held his hands and said sincerely: "Next, I have to work hard, fellow Taoist."
Three days later, Huangfusong, accompanied by two black-robed monks, arrived at the Jiaxu stronghold.
On this trip, I received a message from Li Fan and the others, sending the Tianxuan Mirror, which is the central formation hub.
"I've met Senior Huangfu!" Li Fan saluted.
"You kid..." Fatty Huangfusong looked at Li Fan with complicated eyes.
"Good job!" Huangfusong patted Li Fan on the shoulder and said nothing more.
He took out a broken jade talisman, turned around, and completed the splicing with the jade talisman in the hands of the two black-robed monks.
In the unfolding light curtain, countless characters flashed past like a waterfall.
An imperceptible wave emitted from the light curtain and swept across the surrounding area.
It seems to be performing identity verification.
After a moment, the fluctuations retracted, and a simple, small and exquisite bronze mirror appeared from the light curtain.
The characters flowed into the mirror, and the light curtain disappeared without a trace.
Only the bronze mirror is left, floating in the air, with a quiet mysterious light emitting around it.
Huangfusong's expression was solemn, and he continued to make secrets.
Point towards the center of the white mist that eats away the stronghold.
The sea of fog rippled, as if there was something echoing him in the depths of the white fog.
Li Fan squinted slightly, that should be the core area of the Zhongtian Mystic Lock Spirit Array.
Sure enough, a moment later, a ray of cyan light cut through the white fog.
Heading straight towards the Jiaxu stronghold below.
The bronze mirror suspended in the middle.
Little green awns are all absorbed by the bronze mirror.
The green light surrounding it slowly became introverted and disappeared.
In the end, when the mysterious atmosphere around the bronze mirror was not revealed, and it looked like the most ordinary ordinary object.
Huangfusong finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out a vermilion square wooden box from his arms, and put the bronze mirror in it.
And when the bronze mirror entered the wooden box, the wooden box that originally existed physically turned into a red shadow under the gaze of everyone.
Then it gathered toward the center, turned into a red light spot, flew to Huangfu Song's forehead, and settled down.
Without explaining why he did what he did just now, Huangfusong said to everyone in a deep voice: "I will take care of the central formation hub until the installation is completed."
"Jiang Qigui, how long will this process take you?"
Jiang Qigui didn't hesitate at all and returned: "Within seven days, everyone can work together to complete it."
Huangfusong nodded slowly: "It's not too late. After the formation here is completed, I have to rush to other places."
After saying that, he looked at Li Fan, his expression somewhat relieved: "Thanks to Li Fan for working so hard, the construction progress of your formation is already among the fastest."
"As far as I know, Tianchen Prefecture, which currently ranks first in progress, has not completed the entire formation and should still be in the process of constructing the central core area."
"If you work harder, maybe you can overtake..."
Just as Huangfusong was encouraging everyone, an exclamation suddenly came from outside the meeting hall, where the Tianxuan Mirror was.
"What's going on? Why did the first place's points suddenly increase so much?"
"This time the gap between us and the second place is completely widened!"
The words fell into the ears of the monks present, and they looked at Huangfusong in a strange way.
"Ha... It's still a step too late. But there is still hope for you to compete for second place." Huangfusong was very thick-skinned and said calmly.
"Okay, without further ado, let's set off quickly." He ordered.
Just when everyone was preparing to go to the central area of the formation to complete the final work.
Another exclamation sounded, attracting Li Fan's attention.
"Huh? Look, Guo Yezhong, who has been ranked last, moved!"
"Indeed, although the points are pitiful and we are still at the bottom, we have finally started working."
……
Li Fan, Xue Mu, and Jiang Qigui looked at each other.
I suddenly felt a little strange in my heart.
It seems that Guo Yezhong's points gained coincided with the completion of the construction of the first Tianxuan Spirit Locking Formation?
Is there any connection between this?
Li Fan looked at Huangfusong, seeking the answer.
But the fat man shrugged, as if I had absolutely no idea.
