Chapter 273: Reflection of Earth and Stars, Competition between Cave and Sky
As Liang Shigu lowered his head and asked in a seemingly humble manner.
Standing in front of him, the book fairy dressed as a scholar hesitated slightly before sighing:
"What did you ask me for?"
"Actually, I do have something to ask you when I come here!"
After he finished speaking, no movement was seen from him, and the chairs in the room turned and aligned themselves.
Then Shuxian sat down on the chair and looked at Master Liang Gudao:
"Liang Shigu, how old are you this year?"
"..."
"You ask the students?"
There was some surprise in his eyebrows.
Liang Shigu did not hide it, but held his hands and said:
"After this winter, the student will be one hundred and thirty-one years old!"
"You ask this, do you have something to tell the students?"
When speaking, Liang Shigu had a humble tone and a natural demeanor.
But looking at the 'Book Fairy' in front of me, I still have some vigilant thoughts in my heart.
When the 'Four Saints Sect' invited him from Zhuxia, they used the countless books in the sect's library as bait.
Although he did not break his promise at this time, he was allowed to browse through the library.
But now that I'm here to look for him, I'm probably going to find him... I want to see the real thing.
"One hundred and thirty-one..."
Listen to what Liang Shigu said.
The fairy in the book sighed, but did not get straight to the topic.
Instead, the conversation changed:
"Liang Shigu, what do you think of our Four Sacred Sect?"
"..."
"Four Holy Sects?"
There is some thought in his expression.
Liang Shigucai cupped his hands and said:
"In the eyes of students, the Four Saints Sect is naturally full of outstanding people and talented people!"
"Students used to be on Earth Star, but they never thought... that there is such a fairy-like cave in the world!"
Following Liang Shigu’s words.
There was something strange on the face of the book fairy opposite him, and he said straightforwardly:
"Don't try to fight me here!"
"I can probably think of some of what you're thinking."
"You just blame me for tricking you from Earth Star into joining our Four Saints Sect?"
"..."
"This?"
His expression changed slightly. Liang Shigu just wanted to explain, but saw the Shuxian opposite him shaking his head and saying:
"No need to explain!"
"What you think is your business!"
"I came today because I have something important to discuss with you!"
All he said was a wave of his sleeves.
There was a square table between Liang Shigu and him, and there were even steaming refreshments placed on the table.
At this time, the fairy in the book poured a cup of tea by himself.
Then he stared at Liang Shigu and sighed:
"Liang Shigu, how did our Four Saints Sect come from... you also knew it before."
"In this day and age, the four sages of the 'pen, ink, paper and inkstone' in our sect have all fallen into a long sleep due to the decline of spiritual energy!"
"Only I, who was an inconspicuous book fairy back then, can barely get out and walk around!"
"Now that the tide is rising again, we are seeing a world of great contention!"
"But our Four Sacred Sect's talents are withering and there are no successors!"
Accompanied by the long sigh of the fairy in the book.
Liang Shigu's heart trembled.
I immediately thought of every detail of how he came to the Four Saints Sect.
Although this cave seems to have beautiful scenery and pleasant aura.
But Liang Shigu, apart from seeing some maids and servants here, really never saw a disciple of the Four Saints Sect.
Perhaps it was because the look in his eyes was not concealed.
The book fairy in front of me chuckled and said:
"Have you thought of it?"
"To tell you the truth... Now, apart from Lin Yue'e, who was looking for you in the beginning, I am the only one left in our Four Sacred Sect!"
"As for the maids and servants in the sect, they are not living people, but a group of mere spiritual puppets!"
Speaking of which.
Liang Shigu's expression changed, and then he thought of the fairy in the book who asked him his age.
At this time, some suspicions were already vaguely forming in my mind.
Before he could open his mouth to ask, the Shuxian opposite him had already continued:
"Master Liang, now the Dongtian Competition is about to begin."
"I would like to ask you if you can attend this Dongtian Competition on behalf of the Four Holy Sects?"
"It doesn't matter how many places you win...as long as you can find a place to go to the stars to find opportunities!"
"..."
"Going to participate in the competition?"
For Liang Shigu, Shuxian's request came suddenly... even somewhat inexplicably.
"The competition between the cave and the sky is to compete for a spot in the earth and stars to find opportunities?"
I chewed this sentence over and over in my heart.
Although Liang Shigu felt uncomfortable hearing this, he didn't show anything inappropriate.
Instead, the Shuxian opposite him shook his head and said:
"Do you think that I am putting the cart before the horse in looking for you?"
"You are originally from the Earth Star, but I asked you to find a place for the Earth Star for our Four Sacred Sect?"
Speaking of this, the Shuxian's handsome face showed a self-deprecating smile, and he said helplessly:
"Liang Shigu, even if you forget to eat and sleep, you will read ancient books here!"
"But my sect has hundreds of thousands of books. How many books can you read in just a few days?"
"Tell you, the star here is not the star there!"
"The places you seek for this time in the Cave-Heaven Competition are the reflections of the earth and stars reflected in the dark world!"
"But if you want to find opportunities in the reflection, it is much simpler!"
……
……
At the same time.
Earth Star, Zhoutian Xingdou Palace.
From the moment Lin Yuee came over and claimed to be delivering a message for Liang Shigu, to the moment Lu Yi showed a hint of power and pressure, it only took a moment.
When Lu Yi put away his escaping momentum and was about to continue asking Lin Yuee about Liang Shigu's current situation.
Suddenly a light flashed from his waist.
Then, a small and exquisite jade pendant rose into the sky on its own, shining brightly in Lin Yuee's awe-stricken eyes opposite.
Among them, there was a faint aura of terror that filled her with endless fear.
The next moment, a domineering female voice that was slightly familiar to Lu Yi sounded from inside.
"Lu Yi, I have something to ask you today! Why aren't you on your little island?"
"..."
"Oh?"
Listening to Xue Jiujing's words, Lu Yi didn't pay attention to the unquestionable domineering tone in her tone.
This Xue Jiujing is a remnant of the ancient Immortal Dynasty, and he is backed by a powerful divine sword.
If it weren't for the subtle relationship between the two at this time, the tone of speaking to Lu Yi at this time would have been even worse.
This is the thought.
Lu Yi simply frowned and said coldly in Lin Yuee's disbelieving eyes across from him:
"Xue Jiujing, if you want to find me... I must be here?"
"I don't remember that I have this kind of relationship with you!"
"..."
"Huh?"
Listen to what Lu Yi said.
Xue Jiujing, who was opposite him, was not angry, but chuckled with great interest.
Cai Tian said jokingly:
"What's wrong? I haven't even walked in yet...you want to show off your dignity as a husband?"
"Yesterday, Taishi Sword received a warning... It seems that a certain big shot who tried to protect you has changed his mind."
"You should already know about this, right?"
Although Xue Jiujing said these words in a joke.
But when Lu Yi heard it, his color changed somewhat.
Before he could think of what to say.
On the opposite side, Xue Jiujing continued to chuckle and said indifferently:
"Okay! This matter has nothing to do with me, Taishi Mountain!"
"I, Taishishan, want you to marry me, and what I value is your opportunity and your future!"
"Wait until I, the matchmaker, marry you and enter the house... Anyone who wants to touch you must ask me about the Supreme Sword of Mount Taishi!"
After saying that, his tone changed:
“I’m looking for something big with you today!”
"Return to your island quickly, the disciples sent by me... are already waiting on your island!"
After saying this, Xue Jiujing seemed not to want to talk to Lu Yi anymore.
The jade pendant that originally flew into the air on its own suddenly gathered all its aura and flew back to his waist.

From the time Xue Jiujing revealed his voice to the time when the jade pendant lost all his magical powers, it almost took an instant.
But just for this moment.
Lin Yue'e's expression when she looked at Lu Yi from the opposite side had completely changed.
If it were before, Lin Yuee would only have a little respect for Lu Yi.
But at this moment, the look in her eyes could even be called horror.
There is even a hint of fear in it.
"What?"
I saw a strange color in Lin Yuee's eyes.
Lu Yi's mind just moved, and he suddenly thought about it.
"Lin Yue'e claims to be from the Four Saints Sect. It seems... that she is no stranger to things in the cave?"
Thinking of the domineering scene of the previous expedition against Murong Jinjiao at Mount Taishi.
It is not difficult for Lu Yi to imagine that among the so-called "Three Hundred Caves"... Taishi Mountain's reputation is probably extremely hard.
The only thing that Lu Yi couldn't understand was why Xue Jiujing suddenly wanted to find him for something.
These thoughts are all momentary.
See the fear in Lin Yuee's eyes.
Lu Yi simply looked at her and said calmly:
"I already know everything you said!"
"Go back and tell Master Liang that after a while... I will go to the Four Sacred Sect to visit you!"
"I'll talk to him again then!"
As he spoke, Lu Yi's voice of spiritual thought spread thousands of meters nearby.
"Gather the manpower! Star Palace is returning to Dusk Island!"
With this sound it fell.
The countless helicopters that were originally scattered outside Zhoutian Xingdou Hall almost all shook.
Then, they all turned around and returned to the Star Palace like swallows returning to their nests.
In the huge star palace, countless equipment in the camp below were rolled up with divine light.
Then, it turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
……
……
At the same time, Dusk Island.
Since Lu Bu came to cause trouble last time, most of the ruins on Dusk Island that originally had a somewhat exotic beauty were completely destroyed.
For Lu Yi, this Dusk Island has no special significance.
Following his order, countless buildings with obvious modern styles have been erected on the island.
At this moment, inside the newly built ‘Twilight Island League of Nations Center’ on the island.
As the second-in-command on the island when Lu Yi was away, Jiang Wangbei was wearing a straight new League of Nations uniform.
With a dull expression on his face, he was walking around the building with two women in pink skirts.
These two women are Wan Qiu and Wan Rong who came back to Twilight Island last time.
Compared with the indifferent Jiang Wangbei and the later Qixing, Tank and others who can even be called restrained.
The two sisters look much more calm.
As he walked, he even asked Jiang Wangbei behind him with interest about the purpose of the numerous equipment in the building.
……
When Lu Yi controlled Zhoutian Xingdou Hall to bring out a terrifying roar of "rumbling" in the air.
The frivolous expressions on the faces of the two sisters suddenly disappeared, and some serious expressions appeared one after another.
"This movement should mean that my uncle is back."
With Wanqiu Wanrong's two bright eyes looking at the sky.
The roaring sound in the air gradually dissipated.
Then, Lu Yi, who was dressed in a pitch-black uniform, appeared at the main entrance of the ‘National League Ground Center’ at some unknown time.
"Lu Yi!"
Suddenly Lu Yi's figure appeared.
Jiang Wangbei, who originally looked indifferent, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the pressure on her from the pair of sisters in front of her was too great.
"Are you two?"
I suddenly saw Wan Qiu and Wan Rong.
Lu Yi only took a few steps toward the building, and the two women bowed their heads.
The verbal address made Jiang Wangbei, Qixing and others behind him stunned.
"It turns out that my uncle is back!"
"..."
From the back, Jiang Wangbei saw that these sisters had a hint of indifference and pride.
In front of Lu Yi, every bit of pride was gone.
At this time, her low eyebrows and submissive appearance are even like those of a maid from a wealthy family in ancient times.
At this time, Lu Yi glanced at the two people in front of him and said with a strange expression:
"The door has been sealed. If you two come here... your strength will be suppressed!"
"What is the big deal that requires Princess Wanjing to send you here?"
"..."
Following Lu Yi’s question.
The two sisters Wan Qiu and Wan Rong looked at each other with only a hint of embarrassment on their faces.
Lu Yi glanced at the two people and said:
"These people are my subordinates!"
"If anything happens, just say it"
At this point.
Wan Qiucai, the leader, bowed again and said:
"Uncle, the princess sent us two here to give you a badge for the 'Dongtian Competition'!"
"..."
"Dongtian Competition??"
Suddenly I heard Wan Qiu’s words.
A trace of thought appeared in Lu Yi's expression, and he immediately understood what the so-called 'Dongtian Competition' was for.
He simply frowned and said:
"Is this competition between the cave and the sky for the purpose of competing for the qualifications to come to the earth to find opportunities?"
Faced with Lu Yi’s words.
Opposite Wan Qiu did not hesitate, nodded directly and said seriously:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Exactly!"
"Now the three hundred caves are ready! Three people from each group will participate in the competition... to compete for a total of three hundred people."
"When the results come out, these three hundred people will be sent into the reflection of the earth and stars to look for opportunities!"
"What the princess wants this time is to ask my uncle to take us two sisters to participate in the competition to gain some limelight for our Taishi Mountain."
"..."
"Take you with me??"
This time, Lu Yi looked a little weird.
"Both of you are both golden elixir cultivators. Isn't this competition... limited to the golden elixir?"
Listen to Lu Yi’s rhetorical question.
Wan Qiu showed a sweet smile and complimented;
"My uncle is indeed well-informed!"
"But..."
During this meal, Wan Qiu's words... made Lu Yi's face even more weird.
"Now that the tide is reopening, it is a time of great strife!"
"This fight for opportunity is a big deal for all the sects in Dongtian!"
"How can it be possible to send a junior under the golden elixir to participate in such a grand event?"
"We sisters, at this time, we have already cut ourselves off from the realm... and fallen back to the realm of casting bodies!"
"Not just us, I'm afraid every sect and sect will deal with it this way!"
As Wan Qiu's seemingly natural words came out.
Although Lu Yi’s face looks strange.
But deep down in my heart, I am still a little bit shocked by the ruthlessness of these Dongtian Sect, or rather the disciples.
This state of self-destruction is easy to say.
It’s much scarier to do it.
Not to mention that when the realm falls, the soul and body seem to be cut into pieces by a thousand swords.
If you fall from this level, you will want to get back up.
The difficulty is no less than taking another step forward.
At this time, the two sisters cut themselves off and returned to the body, and then wanted to cultivate the golden elixir again.
It’s almost the same as when I wanted to go to Xiuzhenjun before.
