After a while, the three elders and the onlookers from Lingjian Peak dispersed.
Xiao Yi and Li Hongyan followed Xiao Jianfeng and Qin Yuyan back to the Lingjian Peak Hall. As for Lei Luan, he found a small mountain peak to settle down outside the five peaks of the Lingjian Sect.
In the main hall, Qin Yuyan said with a smile: "Yi'er, you really surprised my mother. The aura of this Lei Luan is so powerful that even ordinary gods in the transformation stage are no match for it!"
Xiao Yi smiled and said: "My mother is now only one step away from the stage of becoming a god. If my mother likes it, I will go to the Dragon's Back Mountains to catch a fifth-level spiritual bird for my mother to use as a mount."
Just now, through his spiritual exploration, he found that both Xiao Jianfeng and Qin Yuyan had made great progress in cultivation. Xiao Jianfeng had already reached the early stage of becoming a god, while Qin Yuyan had also reached the completion of the Nascent Soul stage.
At this time, Xiao Jianfeng said: "Yi'er, for more than a year, your incarnation of Thunder Tiger has been wanted everywhere in the Wuyue Sect. Now that you have returned to the mountain gate with the fifth-level Thunder Luan, they must be suspicious. Are you sure you can deal with them?
?”
Xiao Yi smiled and said: "Now, it is time for our Spirit Sword Sect to conquer the world and unify the Song Dynasty. The Wuyue Sect is the next target! However, before that, I have to inherit the position of head!"
Hearing this, Xiao Jianfeng nodded and said, "Okay, in three days, we will decide on the candidate leader in advance."
…
The next day, news spread throughout the five peaks of the Spirit Sword Sect that the competition for candidates to be the leader was held in advance.
Even so, the second-generation disciples of each peak have no objections. Because their strength has reached the current extreme, it is difficult to improve in a short period of time, and a few months earlier will have no impact.
Two days later, more than a hundred people including the second generation disciples of the fifth peak of the Spirit Sword Sect and the third generation inner disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect gathered here at the Tai Chi dojo where disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect practiced sword practice.
The last candidate for leader was Lingxuan Peak Zheng Wentao, and the ones just behind him were Lingzhen Peak Wang Cheng and Lingyu Peak Shen Qingyao.
The rules of the competition are that sixteen second-generation disciples will decide the top three, and these three will have the qualifications to challenge the last candidate for master.
After Xiao Yi watched the battle for a while, it was his turn to appear on the stage.
"Xiao Yi from Lingjian Peak versus Zhu Hong from Lingyang Peak!"
Immediately, Xiao Yi's figure flashed and landed in the middle of the Tai Chi dojo, and three feet away in front of him was a middle-aged man wearing a red robe, it was Zhu Hong of Lingyang Peak.
Zhu Hong said calmly: "Junior brother, Feijian has no eyes, I advise you to end up on your own!"
Xiao Yi smiled and said: "Thank you, Senior Brother Zhu, for your kindness, please come!"
When Zhu Hong heard the words, he immediately stopped talking. The flying sword behind him suddenly unsheathed and floated in front of him, and then streams of red alchemy power was injected into the flying sword.
The red flying sword suddenly split into six, turning into six red sword lights and shooting towards Xiao Yi.
A layer of blue air shield appeared on Xiao Yi's body. Six red sword lights penetrated the air shield less than half an inch before a blue lightning arc counterattacked. Five of the red sword lights were defeated by the power of thunder on the spot. Only the red flying sword
The main body is still there, but the sword light has dimmed a lot, and it has returned to Zhu Hong's hands.
At this time, Zhu Hong activated his natal spiritual sword again, and the red light shone brightly. The flying sword turned into a red firebird with a wingspan of about ten feet, and with a cry, it rushed towards Xiao Yi.
Sword Light Differentiation is just a general sword technique for sword cultivation, while the special sword technique of the Spirit Sword Sect is the sword spirit transformation, which can greatly increase the power of the sword technique. Zhu Hong was originally only at the middle stage of Jindan cultivation, but after the sword spirit transformation,
Its power has reached the late stage of Jindan.
However, Xiao Yi just pointed a finger, a blue sword light shot out, turned into a blue thunder dragon, and collided with the red firebird!
The thunder dragon collapsed, and the red firebird also screamed, turning into the body of the red flying sword with dim light, and returned to Zhu Hong's hand in a flash.
At this time, Xiao Yi said: "Senior Brother Zhu, do you still want to compete?"
"you win!"
Zhu Hong sighed quietly and flew away from the ring.
At this time, the second-generation Jindan disciples and third-generation inner sect disciples who were watching all looked shocked. Xiao Yi actually defeated Zhu Hong without flying his sword. The cultivation he showed was truly terrifying.
Zheng Wentao, Wang Cheng, and Shen Qingyao, the three popular candidates for the leadership, also began to pay attention to Xiao Yi and began to regard him as a strong competitor.
Both Lingxuanzi and Lingzhenzi had worried looks in their eyes.
Immediately, after one round of competition, 16 people were eliminated to 8 people, divided into two groups.
Xiao Yi once again defeated a senior fellow from Lingzhen Peak and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.
At this time, it was the turn of a second-generation disciple of Lingxuanfeng to face off against Shen Qingyao for the first time.
Shen Qingyao's current cultivation level is only one step away from the peak of Jindan. She is far superior to her opponent and wins quickly.
Then came Xiao Yi versus Wang Cheng.
Wang Cheng's cultivation level was not inferior to Shen Qingyao's, but he was still defeated by Xiao Yi in just a few moves. Moreover, he also did not use his natal spiritual sword.
Immediately, the top three were decided, but Shen Qingyao and Wang Cheng gave up continuing to challenge the candidate leaders because they both understood the huge gap between themselves and Xiao Yi.
At this time, only Xiao Yi and Zheng Wentao were left duel.
The two flew to the center of the Tai Chi dojo and faced each other three feet apart.
Zheng Wentao said: "Junior brother, can you let me see your true cultivation?"
He knew that his probability of winning was very low, but he was still unwilling to do so and wanted to know how strong Xiao Yi was.
"good!"
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, blue sky thunder elixir surged out from his body, transforming into a terrifying thunder purgatory about ten feet in diameter, just like the God of Thunder in the world.
Zheng Wentao felt the terrifying energy emanating from the Thunder Domain, and his face turned pale, because this power far exceeded the limit that he could deal with.
Next to them, the three elders Lingxuan, Lingzhen, and Lingyang also looked surprised, because they found that Xiao Yi's strength had surpassed theirs.
Immediately, Zheng Wentao said: "Junior brother Xiao, there is no need to compete, I am not your opponent, you win!"
Xiao Yi took back the Thunder Domain,
Next, Xiao Yi became a candidate for the leader, and will officially inherit the position of leader three days later.
This is what everyone expected. Xiao Yi showed that he has a terrifying cultivation level that far exceeds that of Zheng Wentao. Even though he is only thirteen years old now, he has a combat power of Nascent Soul level and above, and he also has a fifth-level super spiritual bird mount, which is
The most suitable leader.
Three days later, the Lingjian Sect held a ceremony for the succession of its leader.
The five sects of Baihe Sect, Hehuan Sect, Qingmu Sect, Shenfu Sect, and Golden Knife Sect all sent their Jindanqi elders to attend the ceremony.
In addition, the Zhao family of the Song Dynasty royal family and the four major cultivation families of Wang, Xie, Zhou, and Chen also sent people.
At the ceremony, Xiao Yi took the leader's seal and golden order from Xiao Jianfeng with both hands and officially became the leader.
The four peak masters, including Lingjianzi Xiao Jianfeng and Lingyuzi, also officially abdicated and became supreme elders, no longer interfering in sect affairs. Zheng Wentao, Wang Cheng, and Shen Qingyao became the masters of the three peaks of Lingxuan, Lingzhen, and Lingyu.
As for Lingyang Peak, it was Zhu Hong who became the peak master.
The other second-generation disciples have also been promoted to elders one after another. And most of the second-generation disciples from the outer sect have also been promoted to elders from the outer sect.
The first thing Xiao Yi did when he took over as the head of the sect was to expand the number of disciples and recruit new disciples on a large scale. He also selected four outer sect disciples with good talents among the outer sects, promoted them to registered disciples, and gave them some spiritual pills.
But the rules have not been broken. All new disciples who enter the school are outer disciples. If they cannot establish the foundation, they cannot become inner disciples.
