Kong Ling yawned out of boredom, looking a little drowsy.
In fact, as a monk's strength improves, not only will he be able to live without grains, but even sleep will become dispensable. Often, monks rely on meditation to replenish their energy, and at the same time, they can improve their cultivation.
Gain, so many monks no longer need to sleep after their cultivation is advanced.
This is an era of true immortality.
Unless you are seriously injured or caused by other reasons, you must use hibernation to recover and adjust your body, then you need to enter the sleep state.
If Kong Ling yawns and looks drowsy, it's just because he is really bored.
So she stood aside and started practicing the sword technique for the 359th time.
It's not a profound swordsmanship, it's just a set of relatively common basic swordsmanship. However, some of the swordsmanship may have been improved and somewhat different from the basic swordsmanship that Su Anran knew. At the beginning, he
Because I watched this set of basic swordsmanship drills by Kong Ling several times, I felt quite inconsistent with these improved sword moves. The soul of obsessive-compulsive disorder in my body almost made a mistake. After all, these moves looked a bit antelope-like.
Jiao's randomness made him feel quite uncomfortable.
But when Zhu Yuan explained that these basic sword moves contain more than nine different changes, and can also form another set of advanced sword moves on their own... He said a lot of blablabla, with no trace of emotion in his tone.
Su Anran was astonished by his unabashed admiration and respect.
He deeply understood the difference between himself and the swordsman genius.
For example, he couldn't see any subsequent changes in moves. He just felt that this sword move was not standard enough and was uncomfortable.
But Zhu Yuan could see that these nine improved sword moves were the real essence - although he couldn't guess what the subsequent changes were, but judging from these changes, at least they would be.
There are eighty-one sword move action combinations. However, a set of sword moves usually does not have so many sword paths, so there must be many useless sword moves used to confuse people. If it really matches the movement route of the true energy, Zhu
Yuan estimated that this set of advanced sword moves should only have eighteen to twenty-seven moves.
But the real killing moves are probably only two or three.
He was a little regretful that he could not observe Kong Ling and his true energy to perform this sword technique. Otherwise, he thought he would still be able to guess a thing or two.
But this point is that Zhu Yuan is thinking too much.
Kong Ling is just a little ignorant of the world, but it doesn't mean that she is really stupid.
If Su Anran hadn't deceived the MAX skill, and hit the point a few times at critical moments, making Kong Ling believe it, Su Anran would have been beaten by Kong Ling. But from now on, Su Anran can still jump around, and Kong Ling
They have all boarded the pirate ship, which can also prove from the side that the educational ability of the Dian Cang clan is really not good.
"The other two teams don't dare to show their heads, right?"
Zhu Yuan and Su Anran, as leaders of their respective teams and not having a bad relationship with each other, were sitting together chatting at this time.
Kong Ling was practicing his sword by himself. Although the other three disciples from Beihai Sword Island were Zhu Yuan's junior brothers and sisters, in fact, their relationship with Zhu Yuan was probably not that good, because these three people gathered together and whispered.
There was no intention of getting close to Zhu Yuan in communicating.
"If there is no other way to clear the customs in this place, they must come here." Su Anran shrugged and said nonchalantly, "How about it, have you received the mission?"
Hearing Su Anran mention this, Zhu Yuan's eyes flickered a few times.
But he still nodded and said: "I got it...how did you make sure that I can definitely get the task?"
"Trigger mode." Su Anran laughed, "I heard you mention it before, and I have a general understanding of it."
"Really?" Zhu Yuan responded.
He could tell that Su Anran didn't seem to want to continue talking about this topic, so he didn't continue to ask. Although he did want to know how Su Anran could make his mission system controllable, because if
If he really knows this, he won't need to be so passive in doing things in the future, but unfortunately, Su Anran doesn't intend to completely expose this secret, and he is a little helpless.
If it had been anyone else, Zhu Yuan might have had the courage to try some more special methods.
But facing Su Anran, Zhu Yuan really had no such idea.
And even if Su Anran is forced to kill here, it will have no practical effect.
After all, death in the Sword Testing Tower does not mean death, and there is still a high chance that one can successfully escape. The small number of unlucky souls whose souls were crushed directly probably just have poor luck.
As long as Su Anran doesn't die and tells the story of him being killed here after he goes out, he may not have to leave Beihai Sword Island in the future - no, maybe he won't even be able to get out of Wanjian Tower. Otherwise, he doesn't want to
The reason for provoking Su Anran was not only because he was a disciple of Taiyi Valley, but also because Su Anran's growth rate was so amazing.
Although he didn't feel the aura of the Soul Condensing Realm on Su Anran's body, judging from all the swordsmen he had seen in the examination room so far, there was no one below the Soul Condensing Realm, so he was naturally very suspicious of Su Anran.
His true strength - in just a few months, he has stepped from the natal realm to the soul-condensing realm. This talent is quite terrifying.
Moreover, after the incident in the secret realm of the Dragon Palace Ruins, there are now many rumors circulating in the Xuanjie. Although there are some false news mixed in, Zhu Yuan actually knows a lot of relatively insider information because his sect is close to Beizhou.
For example, Su Anran did successfully escape from the Great Sage of the Mirage Demon, and even killed Ao Wei in front of the Great Sage - it is said that it is for this reason that the relationship between Beihai Sword Island and the Demon Alliance has changed.
It is quite stiff and it is impossible to return to the previous peaceful state. There have been more than ten small-scale conflicts between the two sides. However, because many large sects are currently stationed on the islands near Sword Island in the North Sea, the demon
The alliance did not dare to invade on a large scale.
But in contrast, the Demon Alliance has also launched retaliatory actions in Beizhou. Many human races that could still live peacefully with the demon clan have suffered. As a result, a large number of human sects and families in Beizhou have chosen to flee Beizhou.
state.
Zhu Yuan, who is currently not involved in the high-level affairs of the sect, is not very clear about the specific situation.
The only thing he can know is that Beihai Sword Sect has taken in most of the refugees, which has caused a certain degree of backlash and dissatisfaction within the sect. Zhu Yuan's not-so-smart mind naturally cannot figure out what Beihai Sword Sect has done
Why do we still take in so many refugees and give them a large degree of autonomy and status? The islands near the North Sea Islands are almost all allocated.
But because Beihai Jiandao is currently in troubled times, Zhu Yuan will naturally not have other inappropriate thoughts.
"It's not that I don't want to say it, but there are some things that I really don't know how to tell you." Su Anran was silent for a moment before speaking, "I can understand some things, but it's difficult for me to express them to you, and
There's a lot of uncertainty here."
"Uncertainty?" Zhu Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"Although I successfully let you accept the mission, regarding the specific method of completing the mission, your mission panel must show more than one completion method, right?"
Zhu Yuan's face showed a bit of surprise.
Su Anran took one look and was already sure that his guess was correct.
As for how to trigger tasks, Su Anran was also a gamer on Earth. What game has he never played? He even played some niche games that were not available in China, and even some excellent graduate games by students from foreign programming schools.
I can find them through some channels and channels, so I have some understanding of the task triggering judgment mode.
But Xuanjie is a real world after all, not a game world that has been restricted by rules and regulations.
Therefore, even if Su Anran understands the conditions for triggering the task, the task items, requirements, completion methods, etc. that are formed after the task is triggered are beyond Su Anran's control.
His original intention was to allow all teams to pass this assessment smoothly, so as to avoid unnecessary competition and sneak attacks.
After all, although Su Anran trusts Zhu Yuan, even if he wants to pass this test, Zhu Yuan will most likely not interfere. But when Zhu Yuan wants to pass the sword test stone in the ruins later, how can he ensure that the other two teams
Won't it interfere?
The answer is there is no guarantee.
So, does Zhu Yuan have any reason to just watch Su Anran pass the test safely, while he himself has to take corresponding risks when passing the test?
Even if he agrees, there is no guarantee that his junior brothers and sisters will agree.
So the problem eventually has to circle back to its origin.
Find a way that everyone can pass the test without conflicts and arguments.
This method is to maintain order.
Su Anran was certain that the task Zhu Yuan received must be related to this aspect.
But if he wants to maintain real order, he doesn't necessarily have to ensure that everyone else can pass the level smoothly. He can also let Su Anran leave successfully, and then he can sneak attack other teams to gain greater benefits - if it is
Others would definitely not do such a thankless thing. But Zhu Yuan is different. He is a person with a mission system. Maybe if he attacks other teams and prevents others from completing the level, that is the way he can get the most benefit.
.
"I still sincerely hope you can consider my proposal."
Zhu Yuan didn't speak, just sighed.
Then not long after, he stood up.
Because the ruins finally welcomed the other teams that he and Su Anran had been waiting for for a long time.
But it's not two, but three.
There are eleven people in total.
One of the largest groups has five people, and the other two groups have three people.
However, the five-person team obviously came from five swordsmen with different identities, and they obviously lacked enough trust in each other.
As for the other two teams, one of the three members also belongs to different identities, but they should have gone through a certain degree of running-in or understanding of each other, so the three of them are not as unfamiliar as the five-person team.
, the standing position is also relatively close.
Of the three people in the last team, Su Anran had met each other once.
That was when he first arrived at Wanjian Tower, when his fourth senior sister was killing people outside the door, these three people came out to join in the fun.
Su Anran didn't think much about it before, but now seeing these three people coming together, he also had some guesses about these three people: Maybe the idea of trying to give him and Ye Jinxuan power before was not from these three people, but they definitely
Also participated in it.
"Huh." Su Anran stood up, patted Zhu Yuan's shoulder, and said softly: "How much reward can you get for every person you eliminate here?"
Zhu Yuan was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Anran with a strange look.
"Those three people have a grudge against me." Su Anran gestured to the team on the left with his eyes.
Su Anran never considered himself a saint.
He doesn't have the Holy Virgin concept of letting the other person go after being bullied, and then talking about shaking hands and making peace, or about retribution.
He thought they were all idiots.
If someone tries to hit him in the face, he will punch the opponent directly. If the opponent has already hit him in the face, then he will definitely hit the opponent directly.
So now it is confirmed that these three people are enemies. Su Anran is not so kind and allows the other party to pass the level.
"I understand." Zhu Yuan nodded, "What about the others?"
"Like I said before, let them pass, it will be good for you and me." Su Anran whispered, "Sometimes, some benefits don't necessarily have to be obtained through your mission. You want to
Obtaining enough mission rewards has offended many people,
This is actually quite detrimental to your adventure in the mysterious world... In the past, you were weak and had no choice, so you had to do that in order to survive. I can understand it. But now you are gradually getting stronger, and you are not forced.
At the end of the road, I think it's time for you to think about the future."
Zhu Yuan was silent.
But Su Anran no longer planned to wait for the other party's answer. He took a step forward and said, "I think some of you should know me, and some of you may not know who I am. But it doesn't matter. Let me introduce myself first.
Introduction...I am Su Anran, a disciple of Taiyi Valley."
Hearing Su Anran's words, the team of five people all looked surprised.
On the contrary, the other two teams did not show any surprise, obviously they knew Su Anran's identity.
"I know you must be wondering why I am staying here. I believe you have been observing us for a long time." Su Anran laughed, "Probably in your minds, I should fight with Senior Brother Zhu.
Then you can easily reap the benefits... It's a pity that I disappoint you."
"Haha, Mr. Su is joking."
"We have no such idea."
The two sword cultivators in the group of five spoke, but the others did not answer.
Su Anran didn't care either, but he still smiled back at the two sword cultivators who spoke: "Actually, I don't care what you think. But I want to tell you a piece of good news now, that is, I have agreed with Beihai Jian
Senior Brother Zhu of the sect has discussed it. Everyone has already arrived on the fifth floor. There is only one last step left to observe the sword canon. Therefore, it is not a good thing to hinder everyone's luck and future, so we decided to let everyone
You can successfully pass this assessment."
"Are you telling the truth?"
This time, everyone reacted, and their faces showed great excitement.
"Of course it's true." Su Anran laughed, and then nodded, "I can even tell you the way to pass the level... However, I have a small condition here."
Everyone who originally looked excited suddenly became calm.
"Master Su, please tell me." One of the three sword cultivators from different forces spoke up to break the silence.
"All of you can successfully pass the level, except the three of them." Su Anran pointed to the trio on the left.
"Why?!" The expressions of the trio changed immediately, "Don't listen to him, he is trying to alienate you! As long as the three of us are eliminated, it will be your turn next! At this time, We should work together as one!"
"Why? Why are we enemies?" Su Anran said with an indifferent look, "When I came to Wanjian Tower before, your senior brothers and sisters tried to give me and the fourth senior sister a blow, but the plan failed. But since you plan to take action against us, Taiyigu, aren’t we enemies?”
"Do you have any evidence to prove what you are saying?"
"Why are you so naive? You still need evidence for this kind of thing?"
"Is it true that you, Taiyi Gu, act so domineeringly?"
"You're really right about this. Our Taiyi Valley acts in such a domineering manner." Su Anran nodded sincerely, "Don't talk to me about the overall situation, and don't reason with me. Our Taiyi Valley never behaves like this." It is unreasonable to talk about the overall situation. The only thing we believe in is to never break trust with others... Since you are trying to cause trouble for us, Taiyi Valley, then you must be prepared to be liquidated."
"you!"
"My condition is that when Senior Brother Zhu and I deal with these three people, I hope you will not interfere, because this is a personal grudge between me and them."
"Okay!" The other eight people looked at each other and quickly chose to retreat, leaving a safe distance from the three people on the left.
Su Anran only glanced at it, and then laughed: "I said that I made such a big noise here just now. Even Senior Brother Zhu has come over and has stayed here for so long without seeing anyone else coming. It turns out that You are planning to play the strategy of combining vertical and horizontal... It seems that you have already guessed that I will not let you go, so you plan to recruit other people to be swordsmen."
"You...you are talking nonsense." Someone yelled urgently, "Su Anran, don't go too far! We are already here, and we are just missing the last step. As you said, stop Our chance is to have a real mortal enemy, do you really want to do this?"
"Ha." Su Anran laughed, "You will be unlucky if you meet me."
"Do you even want to stop us?" Someone else said, "You are only in the natal realm. We may not be Zhu Yuan's opponent, but the three of us are all in the soul condensation realm. As long as the fish is dead and the net is broken, , at least we can drag you into the water together."
"If you want to hurt Mr. Su, ask me if I have my sword!" Kong Ling, who had been silent all this time, stepped forward and said, "Mr. Su's enemy is my enemy!"
The expressions on the faces of the trio became quite ugly.
"Senior Brother Zhu, let me ask you something."
"you say."
Although Zhu Yuan never said anything, he stood by Su Anran's side from beginning to end, which made his position very clear.
This is also something that the other three disciples of Beihai Jiandao cannot understand, because in their impression, their senior brother Zhu Yuanzhu is not an easy person to talk to.
He is the type to fall out with each other, and because of this, he has no friends in the Beihai Sword Sect.
But now, he is firmly standing on the same side as Su Anran, which really makes them feel incredible.
"If I kill them, will it be considered your achievement?"
Others may not know what Su Anran's meaningless sentence means, but Zhu Yuan understands it.
"Calculate."
"That's good."
Su Anran nodded, then turned to look at the other three.
He first pulled Kong Ling, pulled her behind him, and said softly: "Just wait and see how I treat them. This is a rare learning opportunity. If you watch carefully and study hard, how much can you learn?"
, it depends on your own ability to comprehend.”
Kong Ling's eyes lit up and he nodded excitedly: "Yes!"
Then, Su Anran turned to look at the other trio and said, "Well, don't blame me for really blocking your opportunity. I'll give you a chance. As long as you can receive my three sword energies,
If your senior brothers and sisters tried to harm me before, I will no longer come to settle accounts with you."
"Your senior sister has already figured this out, and the culprit has been eliminated."
"My senior sister has made it clear with you, but I haven't." Su Anran's smile disappeared instantly, "Since you don't want the opportunity I gave you, I have no choice but to ask you to withdraw from this test early."
"Wait a minute." Someone said, "As long as we catch your three sword energies, will this matter end here?"
"Of course." Su Anran nodded.
"good."
"Remember, after catching my sword energy, dodge does not count." Su Anran laughed again, "I don't intend to bully others. The three sword energy will attack the three of you separately, one person at a time... How?
?I am very friendly to you."
"Huh." The other party didn't answer, just snorted coldly.
Seeing how confident Su Anran was, how could they not know that Su Anran's sword energy was unusual.
But no matter how unusual it is, how much stronger can they think Su Anran can be if he is not strong enough to be in the realm of his own destiny? Even if he exceeds the standard and even causes them to be seriously injured, as long as they don't die, they can get through this level.
.After that, as long as they can successfully enter the next floor, even if they are eliminated immediately after entering, they will be considered a victory, because the real purpose of entering the sword trial building is not a test at all.
These basic assessment contents and methods of testing strength do not improve their strength much.
But the opportunity to observe the sword code after successfully entering the sixth floor is the reward they must strive for.
So now that the last step is needed, how can they give up?
"bring it on."
"Okay." Su Anran laughed, then raised his hand and three missiles and sword energy suddenly blasted out.
"It's just an invisible sword energy with almost no breath. Look at me breaking it!"
A long-haired sword cultivator shouted angrily, raised his hand and stabbed the invisible sword energy directed at him with a sword; and his other two companions, not to be outdone, also used their own sword moves.
Use Qi to perform anti-bombing moves.
Because in their opinion, apart from the fact that the sword energy is well hidden, there is no threat at all.
But Su Anran, as soon as the sword energy was released, had already dragged Kong Ling away quickly.
Zhu Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Then when he saw the three people across from him receiving Su Anran's sword energy, and the aura that destroyed the world when the sword energy exploded, he opened his eyes wide and roared in horror.
Said: "Damn it! What the hell kind of sword energy is this!"
At the same time, he turned around and left without looking back.
