The four new people who entered the eighth floor were two men and two women.
One of the women was Xu Yue, who had a relationship with Su Anran.
But at this time, Xu Yue's expression seemed a little strange.
There was a coldness between her brows, and her face was as white as a sheet of paper, and her whole body gave people a feeling of death.
Among the other three people standing next to Xu Yue, there was a man standing closer to Xu Yue. He had white hair, and his hair seemed to be quite smooth. But Su Anran felt an extremely strong feeling from him.
The evil aura, that aura was almost completely different from Xu Yue's death aura.
In addition, there is a man and a woman.
Su Anran has also met the man, but the other person has never met Su Anran, so the two parties naturally cannot talk about knowing each other.
This person is the current chief executive of Wanjian Tower.
Cheng Cong.
Wearing a green robe with a white lining, long black hair reaching her waist, soft facial features, and holding a simple long sword with a scabbard in her left hand, she looks like she has the temperament of a "gongzi as smooth as jade".
But at this time, Su Anran felt that if the other party put on women's clothes, she would have almost the same temperament.
This is the same effect as if Kong Ling wears men's clothing and looks handsome and heroic.
As for the last woman, she has a ponytail and a short gua attire. She doesn’t look like a sword cultivator at all, but more like a martial arts cultivator. Moreover, her skin color is wheat-colored, which is different from the women in this world.
Xiu's painting style of average white skin looks quite out of place.
However, although this girl's style of painting is different from other female cultivators, her appearance is not inferior to Xu Yue's, and perhaps because of her simple and capable attire, she has a bit more youthful vitality. In terms of style,
In other words, this female swordsman and Kong Ling belong to the same style type: whether it is women's clothing or men's clothing, they can easily control it and show their own characteristics.
Although the four people stood very close to each other and looked like a small group, in fact, from the distance between the four people, it can be seen that these four people were also wary of each other in private: Xu Yue and Na
The two men were obviously together, so Cheng Cong and the pony-tailed girl stood relatively close to each other. It could be seen that although the two people were not in the same camp, at least because of the presence of Xu Yue and the white-haired man, they
The two must also form an alliance to compete.
"Interesting." Ye Jinxuan chuckled, "This should be the largest gathering of swordsmen in the world in the past five hundred years."
After hearing the words of her fourth senior sister Ye Jinxuan, Su Anran looked at the other people and recognized their identities.
There were not many women on the World Sword Immortal List at that time. Even when Tang Shiyun was among them, there were only four. Therefore, apart from Ye Jinxuan and Xu Yue, the identity of the remaining woman was also unknown.
It's not difficult to guess.
Number five on the list, Mu Linger from Lingjian Villa.
Being able to stand so close to Xu Yue, it can almost be said that he trusts his back with peace of mind, and the identity of the white-haired man can be easily revealed.
Number six on the list is Bai Zizai from the Hidden Sword Pavilion.
In addition to Kong Buhui, Ye Jinxuan, Xu Yue, and Cheng Cong, there were actually six current sword immortals gathered on the eighth floor of the Sword Test Building at this time.
Su Anran was even thinking that if it weren't for himself and Kong Ling holding him back, the current lineup of six people could almost be said to be an all-star game for the current swordsman - because of the law of the king not seeing the king, no matter the current swordsman
No matter whether they are the current Grand Master, the current Heavenly Master, etc., unless it is a matter of great opportunity, they will rarely meet each other, let alone explore the secret realm together.
Just like this time, if Yin Lingzhu hadn't said it, those who set foot on the sixth floor of the Sword Trial Tower would have a chance to observe the sword canon. I'm afraid none of the six people present would have participated in the Sword Trial Tower assessment this time, because it was meaningless.
.
"It's a pity that Zuo Chuan was eliminated."
I don't know where Kong Bugui made the mistake, but he suddenly made an emotional speech, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute." Ye Jinxuan said angrily.
Zuo Chuan is from Lingjian Villa, and he is also the chief disciple of Lingjian Villa - Lingjian Villa has a special rule that no disciple of the family can be the chief disciple, so even if Mu Ling'er is stronger than Zuo Chuan, she cannot be the chief disciple.
The position of chief, outside even
Follow Zuo Chuan's command. After all, Zuo Chuan is the senior brother of Lingjian Villa. So regardless of whether Zuo Chuan and Mu Ling'er have a harmonious relationship, Zuo Chuan's elimination in the trial of the Sword Trial Tower is equivalent to a defeat.
Mu Ling'er must take revenge for the face of Lingjian Villa.
But when to take revenge and how to take revenge is also a science.
Kong Buhui opened his mouth to speak clearly at this time, which was really a brainless move.
"As long as there is a peanut, your brother will not be so drunk." Su Anran sighed.
"Brother superficial?" Kong Ling was confused.
"I will explain it to you when I have the opportunity in the future." Su Anran shook her head helplessly, "Anyway, remember, just stay away from Kong Bu Regret in the future."
"Okay." Kong Ling nodded.
Although I don’t know why, as long as Mr. Su said it, it must be right.
"I thought you would find Han Buyan, but I didn't expect you didn't." Ye Jinxuan no longer paid attention to Kong Fool, but turned to look at Xu Yue and others with a look of contempt, "There is Han Buyan, you might still be able to find him."
There was hope for a battle with me, but you didn't bring Han Buyan to play with you, which I really didn't expect."
"Even without Han Buyan, the combined strength of the four of us is enough to eliminate you." Bai Zizai said in a deep voice, with a strange golden color appearing on his face.
Su Anran knew that this was a symbol that the other party had absorbed Jin Sha into his body.
There are many types of evil spirits, but no matter what type of evil spirits they are, they will cause a certain degree of harm to the human body. Therefore, when monks absorb evil spirits for their own use, they will adopt some special methods: such as using some kind of magic weapon to absorb evil spirits, or
It is to seal up the evil spirit. No matter how outrageous it is, it is like "Evil Sword Qi", which directly opens a special organ in the body that can accommodate the evil spirit, and will never let the evil spirit wander around in the body.
But Bai Zizai is different.
He really absorbed the evil spirit directly into his body, allowed the evil spirit to stay in the meridians and acupuncture points, and replaced the true energy with the evil spirit.
In this way, he naturally needs to endure the pain of the evil energy hitting his body all the time. But on the other hand, replacing the true energy with evil energy can permanently improve his sword skills and the lethality of the sword energy for sword cultivators.
, especially the golden evil spirit, this kind of evil spirit can improve sword cultivation even more.
To use an analogy, Bai Zizai lowered his life limit in exchange for an increase in attack power.
Yes.
When evil spirit enters the body and replaces true energy, it will shorten the monk's lifespan. Although it does not directly affect the life span, the evil spirit will cause continuous damage to the body.
"You four?" Ye Jinxuan's sarcasm became even louder, "Xu Yue used a secret method to forcibly seal the deterioration of her injuries so that she could still fight, but how many swords could she actually use? Three swords? Four swords?
?...Ha. You even
The evil energy in your body is almost out of control, and the evil energy in your body has surfaced. How much fighting power do you still have? To be honest, if it weren’t for the secret art of your Hidden Sword Pavilion, which is a life-and-death struggle, you wouldn’t even be the eighth in a row.
I can’t even get in the building.”
"That's enough for you!"
"To deal with me?" Ye Jinxuan sneered, "What are you going to use to deal with me? Just because you two are disabled?"
"There are four of us. Even if Bai Zizai and I are sacrificed, it will be enough to expel you and prevent you from entering the ninth floor." Xu Yue said in a deep voice.
"Ha." Ye Jinxuan laughed, "Fairy Xuanyue, do you think that just because you have the title of 'fairy', you can really become a sword immortal? What is the reason that makes you so arrogant?
Do you think that you and Bai Zizai will be able to defeat me just by working together?"
Xu Yue raised her eyebrows.
But soon, she realized the problem.
From the beginning to the end, what Ye Jinxuan has been emphasizing is "the two of you", not "the four of you".
in other words……
Xu Yue turned her head sideways.
Sure enough, they saw Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er quietly retreating, putting a considerable distance between themselves and Bai Zizai. It was obvious that they no longer intended to interfere in their affairs.
"Are you fools?" Xu Yue was furious, "After Ye Jinxuan has solved the two of us, she will definitely take action against you as well. Do you think she might let you go? Why did you suddenly become stupid!"
"You are the one who is stupid, Fairy Xuanyue." Mu Ling'er suddenly chuckled, "Just now, when you and Ye Jinxuan were arguing, Cheng Cong and I had already read the contents on the stone tablet over there, and also knew the third chapter.
The assessment conditions on the eighth floor...you
In order to save Bai Zizai, he worked with us to forcibly expel Han Buyan. My brother Mu Yun had also been eliminated long ago. In addition, Zuo Chuan and Ye Yunfei were also eliminated, which meant that the final assessment on the eighth floor was only
There are only a few of us left."
"Kong Buhui and Ye Jinxuan are obviously working together. Even if the four of us can forcefully expel Ye Jinxuan, if you two are eliminated, Mu Ling'er and I will definitely be hurt. So who is Kong Buhui's opponent?
"
Cheng Cong took the words and said calmly, "Rikong Buhui and Ye Jinxuan joined forces, and the four of us can only protect ourselves. If we really want to expel them, I'm afraid the four of us will also have to answer.
Already."
"You shameless people!" Bai Zizai roared angrily.
"The grievances and grievances between you are originally between you. Why do you want to involve us?" Cheng Cong looked calm, "We are not fools. We naturally understand what you are thinking. We were originally together.
It doesn't matter if we join forces, but the assessment conditions on the eighth floor are obviously a bit special, so the agreement between us will naturally be invalidated."
"Actually, if you didn't forcefully use the secret technique just now, maybe you would have been able to get what you wanted, but it's a pity." Mu Ling'er shook his head, "Some things are probably destined by God. Because you insist on doing it.
We entered the eighth floor together, so things have taken a new turn."
"What do you mean?" Xu Yue asked in a deep voice.
"You are planning to start the team battle mode." Cheng Cong ignored Xu Yue and Bai Zizai, but turned to look at Ye Jinxuan, "Based on the current situation, there should be one more spot. How do you plan to allocate it?"
"It saves trouble to talk to smart people." Ye Jinxuan laughed, "You and Mu Ling'er compete on your own, whoever wins will give this spot to whom."
"I have no objection." Mu Ling'er said with a smile.
"Okay." Cheng Cong hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Why are you doing this?" Kong Buhui turned his head and looked at Ye Jinxuan in surprise.
"Although I know you don't have one, sometimes I can imagine that you do have a brain." Ye Jinxuan glanced at Kong Buhui, "After all, you are from the Dian Cang clan. It's not difficult to add a brain to yourself with a few strokes, right?
?If it really doesn’t work, you can just splash some ink on it and pretend.”
"Witch, you humiliated me again!" Kong Bu regretted and felt great regret.
"If you can't beat me, then shut up." Ye Jinxuan said indifferently, "Now let's take care of these two people."
Seeing that Ye Jinxuan and Kong Buhui suddenly attacked Xu Yue and Bai Zi together, while Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er met to fight, Su Anran was a little confused: What happened?
Why did it suddenly become like this?
"Do you know why they split into two battlefields?"
"I know." Kong Ling nodded.
"You know?" Su Anran was shocked.
"Sir, are you testing me?" Kong Ling looked at Su Anran's surprised look, she blinked her eyes, and then felt a little helpless, "Sir, I just don't know much about the human race, so I was chosen by my superficial brother.
I was just fooled, but actually I am not stupid."
"Is...is that so?" Su Anran coughed lightly, "Then tell me why my senior sister, your apparent brother, Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er started fighting."
"Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er have seen through our plan to enter the ninth floor as a team competition, so there can only be six people at most on the eighth floor." Kong Ling replied, "But they came in with four people, and then counting
There are four of us here, so there are eight people in total, so we have to eliminate two people... The two people from Hidden Sword Pavilion are undoubtedly the best targets, because both of them are injured. If it weren't for Cheng Cong and Mu Ling,
They cannot support the cooperation between your senior sister and my superficial brother."
Su Anran naturally knew this.
But what he didn't understand was why Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er wanted to fight among themselves again, and why Kong Buhui was so shocked.
According to the previous agreement, his fourth senior sister should enter the ninth floor with them.
So, he pretended to be profound and said: "Continue."
"Yes." Kong Ling looked at Su Anran's expression and guessed that her thinking was correct, so she encouraged herself to continue expressing her opinion, "In the team competition, there are three places to enter the ninth floor. Mr. Su and I will each get one, then
The winner of the competition between Mu Ling'er and Cheng Cong will get the remaining one."
Su Anran understood now.
In the eyes of Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er, he and Kong Ling represented the Diancang clan and Taiyi Valley respectively, and both Kong Buhui and Ye Jinxuan obviously gave up the opportunity to enter the ninth floor.
Given to the two of them. In the eyes of Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er, there is naturally a third place left to fight for, so what they are fighting for is the third place that can enter the ninth floor.
.
Because Ye Jinxuan had just made a promise to them: the winner would get the third spot.
Taiyigu's pride will definitely not go back on his word, because Huang Zi once said that Taiyigu can do whatever he wants in the outside world, but he must never break his trust with others, because this is the foundation of Taiyigu. This is why Cheng Conghe
After Mu Ling'er heard Ye Jinxuan's statement, she did not hesitate to give up her cooperation with Xu Yue and Bai Zizai.
Kong Bugui doesn't understand, that's because he is a demon and doesn't understand the weight of the three words "Tai Yi Gu".
But both Ye Jinxuan and Su Anran cared about them very much.
And thinking about what Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er said before, Su Anran completely understood.
If Xu Yue had not insisted on entering the eighth floor together, then in the same team battle mode, Cheng Cong, Mu Ling'er, and Bai Zizai would have united as one - of course, could they defeat Ye Jinxuan and Kong Buhui?
Cooperation is another matter, but at least Cheng Cong and Mu Ling'er will never give up their cooperation with Zangjian Pavilion like they are now.
Although in that case, the person who finally enters the ninth floor will most likely be Ye Jinxuan, instead of replacing someone like now.
But that's the reality.
You can't do everything smoothly, there will always be unexpected situations that happen.
Being able to achieve the current result is probably the best outcome.
But through this, Su Anran also realized something.
Taiyi Valley is really a golden sign in the mysterious world.
At least, in terms of "never breaking trust with others", all the clan sects in the Xuan Realm are willing to believe in the disciples who were born in Taiyi Valley.
