Originally, according to the estimate of the Taoist master of the third formation, Jiang Wuwang could only pass the sixth level at most because he was too young and had impure intentions in learning the formation.
In this way, he arranged for an older genius within the Immortal Formation Alliance who could pass the seventh level to act as a backup to attack him.
Then he would have an excuse not to accept Jiang Wuwei as his disciple. If that didn't work, he would give him the title of an ordinary disciple and dismiss him casually.
But I didn’t expect that this kid could pass the seventh level?
Things suddenly became a little difficult to handle.
For a moment, the Taoist Master of the Third Formation no longer had the leisure to drink tea, and instead focused on the next situation with a solemn expression.
If Jiang Wuwang only gets through the seventh level, although the matter will be difficult to handle, he can still think of another solution later, but what if...
No, impossible!
The Taoist Master of the Third Formation shook his head violently.
There is no way Jiang Wuwang can pass the eighth level!!
In fact, even the Taoist Master of the Third Formation himself, at Jiang Wuwang's age, could only barely reach the level of a Seven-Star Formation Master.
But what happened next made the Taoist Master of the Third Formation feel as if he had been struck by lightning, and the expression on his face could no longer be tense.
Because after spending half an hour, Jiang Wuwu actually managed to pass the eighth level and lit up the eighth star of the nine-star formation monument!
Although the eighth level was very difficult to pass, and I was kicked out soon after entering the ninth level, I finally passed a full eight levels~!!
Even Taoist Master Chang Geng, who had nothing to do with him, couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he saw this development, and he was extremely surprised: "Brother Sanzhen, I'm afraid you and I have underestimated Jiang Wuwang too much. I'm far less than three thousand."
At the tender age of just 2 years, he can achieve such achievements in the art of formation. This Jiang Wuwang can definitely be called a 'genius'~"
The faces of the Taoist Masters of the Third Formation also alternated between blue and white.
Previously, he was sure that this kid wouldn't be able to pass the seventh level, but he passed it.
Later, he was sure that this kid couldn't pass the eighth level, and others also passed it.
Is this kid Jiang Wuwang just here to slap his Third Formation Taoist Master in the face?
"Brother Sanzhen, maybe you are really biased against that [Wuwang Boy], otherwise with your attainments in the formation, the gap in prediction would not be so big." Taoist Master Chang Geng looked at Sanzhen Dao with some emotion.
Lord, he said matter-of-factly, "At this age and with such achievements, I'm afraid Brother Sanzhen may not be as good as you were when you were young."
His words were already polite. In fact, when the Third Formation Dao Master was Jiang Wuwang's age, his strength in the Formation Dao was far inferior to Jiang Wuwang's.
As soon as these words came out, the Taoist Master of the Three Formations became increasingly troubled.
He didn't want to accept Jiang Wuwang as his disciple at all, but he came according to the rules of apprenticeship and behaved like a monster. If he didn't accept him, he would be in big trouble.
The most important thing is that the Taishang Immortal Emperor will definitely question him, why ask, "Three formations, three formations, do you have any objections to this emperor? Why don't you want to accept Wuwei as your disciple?"
To be honest, of course the Taoist Master of the Third Formation has some objections to the Supreme Immortal Emperor, but he doesn’t dare to say it~
Then, most of all, all kinds of little shoes will come one after another. Will the Immortal Formation Alliance be able to survive in the future?
I'm afraid, he has accepted Jiang Wuwang's mantle.
unless……
Among the subsequent assessment crowd, there will be another young man who can pass the eighth level.
But, is this possible?
In an instant, the Taoist master of the third formation turned black as black as ink, and his mood was extremely bad.
****
And at the same time.
Under the stone tablet at the door, the elder of the Immortal Formation Alliance who was in charge of the assessment had already begun to sing with excitement: "Jiang Wuwu, who comes from the Supreme Heaven, passed the eighth level of the Nine-Star Formation Stele and was awarded the title of [Eight-Star Formation Mage]."
The elder's eyes were also filled with shock.
At such a young age, Jiang Wuwang is truly an unparalleled genius! At least, he is much better than when he was an elder when he was younger.
In the square, all kinds of exclamations, discussions, and cheers were heard endlessly.
On the other hand, Jiang Wuwang, who had just come out of the Nine-Star Formation Monument, had one hand behind his back, with a calm expression on his face, looking calm and unhurried.
In fact, at this moment, Jiang Wuwang was far from as calm as he appeared on the surface. On the contrary, he felt lucky in his heart.
According to his normal level, this eighth level was actually very difficult to pass. In the end, it was really just luck that made him pass it.
If he were asked to do it again, he probably wouldn't be so lucky.
However, thanks to him successfully passing the eighth level.
If he had only passed the seventh level, the seniors of the Third Formation might still have excuses, but once he passed the eighth level, no matter how prejudiced he was against him, the seniors of the Third Formation would definitely accept him as his mantle.
This time, luck is with me.
Facing the flood of cheers and praises around him, Jiang Wuwang became more and more proud, and a smile appeared on Jun's face unconsciously.
The breeze blew gently, and his black clothes swayed slightly, making him look even more chic and calm.
Seeing this, even Elder Zishuang and Elder Zhantian behind Wang Anye couldn't help but praise him.
"This boy Jiang does have his own skills. He is worthy of being the future quasi-god son carefully cultivated by Taishang Palace."
"In terms of pure formation techniques, Jiang Wuwang is probably the strongest among the younger generation, bar none..."
Although the two Dao Master-level elders are not majoring in formations, they have reached the level of Dao Master and have lived for a long time. Whether actively or passively, they will always learn various knowledge.
Naturally, they are also involved in formations. In terms of level, they are not comparable to Tao Master-level professional formation masters. But if they really go to the nine-star formation monument to test, they can become six-star or even seven-star formation masters.
It's all possible.
"What an ass, look at what that kid is capable of... Tsk tsk, he looks exactly like the Supreme Old Ghost. Could this kid be his illegitimate son?" Immortal Emperor Nanming's tone was sour, and he started to spread rumors irresponsibly.
.
In fact, Immortal Emperor Nanming also knew that Jiang Wuwang was quite capable. He was just unhappy.
At this time, even Elder Zhantian couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily to him: "Yangming boy, is it difficult to admit that others are strong? You sound so arrogant, you can do it~"
Immortal Emperor Nanming's eyes widened, and he was so angry that he slapped Zhan Tianhu away.
Are you an elder from the Taishang Temple or an elder from my Nanming Temple?
You traitor dog!
When Immortal Emperor Nanming comes on stage, he will of course be able to break through nine levels in a row and completely suppress that kid Jiang Wuwang.
But what happens next?
Could it be that he, the majestic Immortal Emperor, really wanted to worship that junior from the Third Formation as his disciple?
Besides, if his identity as a traveler in the mortal world is revealed and it is spread out. It is said that he, the dignified Immortal Emperor, actually ended up shirtless and bullied the children of the Taishang Palace, wouldn't the Nanming Immortal Emperor's face be completely lost?
"Boy An Ye, why don't you come up? We can't let the boy named Jiang be the prettiest." Immortal Emperor Nanming rolled his eyes and looked at Wang Anye.
Even if you want to cause trouble or cause mischief, you still need to find an agent.
"let me try?"
Wang Anye's eyes widened in astonishment, and after realizing it, he quickly shook his head: "No, although I know a little about the formation, I can only pass the sixth level at most. My main practice direction is in the sword formation."
"Sword array?"
Immortal Emperor Nanming glanced at the sword box behind Wang Anye and couldn't help but marveled: "You are really ignorant and fearless. Swordsmen who specialize in one sword can turn themselves into a poor man. You have a lot of swords."
...Uh, haha~~ It’s okay to be in the Da Luo realm, but what will you do when you get to the Hunyuan realm?”
In the opinion of Immortal Emperor Nanming, dual cultivation of sword formation is very useless.
Especially after reaching the Hunyuan realm, ordinary Hunyuan sword cultivators can specialize in a Hunyuan Taoist sword, and then they can combine the human and sword into one, slashing the sky and the earth with unparalleled courage.
But the situation is different for dual practitioners of sword formation. It is also a Hunyuan Dao sword. If it automatically hits people in the sword formation, can it have the same power as in the hands of a Hunyuan sword practitioner?
Even if you have a Hunyuan Dao Sword in your sword formation, plus a few holy swords, and a bunch of miscellaneous fairy swords, it will still not be able to compete with a pure sword cultivator.
No matter how many swords you have flying towards me, I will destroy them all with one sword.
This is why most pure sword cultivators are obviously poor, but there are still countless young people flocking to them.
There is no other reason, pure swordsman is handsome and strong~
When you are young and frivolous, who can resist the charm of one person and one sword, sweeping the world?
Of course, sword formation dual cultivation is not without its merits.
Suppose, just a hypothesis, your family is rich enough to be able to afford multiple Hunyuan Dao Swords in the Hunyuan Realm, and to collect a large number of holy swords to form a real Hunyuan Sword Formation. Naturally, it will become very powerful.
Strong, very strong.
Moreover, this kind of strength has no upper limit.
Just imagine, when a sword formation dual cultivator was in the Hunyuan realm, he made dozens of [Hunyuan Dao Swords] and hundreds of [Holy Swords] in one go to refining the sword formation. Isn't this just trying to catch and beat whomever?
No matter how strong a swordsman is, he will have to kneel down.
In fact, as long as you are rich enough and equipped with some divine swords, even the Immortal Emperor can join the ranks.
But the prerequisite for all this is to have money.
An ordinary monk keeps a lot of swords. Regardless of whether they can afford to buy them, the cost of maintenance and repair alone can make him bankrupt a hundred times. The Hunyuan Sword Formation is still a dream.
How could Wang Anye have expected that Immortal Emperor Nanming would be so full of inner drama?
Hearing Immortal Emperor Nanming's words, he didn't feel much at all, and said calmly: "Brother Yangming, I really like the dual cultivation of sword formation. As for the cost...it's okay, I can afford it."
Haha~
Immortal Emperor Nanming just smiled and did not dwell on this matter anymore.
Now his purpose is just to mess up the good deeds between Jiang Wuwang and the Supreme Immortal Emperor.
As for what benefit it would bring to him to stir up pornography? Of course there is none.
It's enough for him to feel happy.
"Boy An Ye, it's pretty good if you can pass the sixth level. Why don't you give it a try, maybe there will be a miracle~" Immortal Emperor Nanming changed the subject and smiled.
Wang Anye didn't want to talk to him and was about to refuse.
The result is the next moment.
Wang Anye felt like he was wrapped in an invisible soft force. Before he could react, he was instantly thrown to the front of the Nine Star Formation Monument.
Elder Zishuang and Elder Zhantian looked shocked. They realized something was wrong almost at the same time, and immediately wanted to reach out and fish the person back.
However, the two of them were a step too slow after all.
The profound energy in their bodies had just started to circulate when Immortal Emperor Nanming stopped them with a glare.
Two condensed voices fell into the ears of the two elders.
The two elders were stunned for a moment, and looked at the young man in front of them with shock and disbelief.
Especially Elder Zhantian, his expression changed suddenly and he almost fell to his knees on the spot.
Under the gaze of Immortal Emperor Nanming, he did not dare to make a mistake at all, so he had no choice but to follow the other party's request and send a trembling message to Wang Anye: "Anye, listen to my senior's words and break through the Nine Star Formation Monument."
At this time, Wang Anye still didn't know that he must have met a "master".
However, the other party didn't seem to have any ill intentions toward him.
He turned his head and glanced at Master Zhantian in the distance. Seeing that he was fine, he stopped thinking about it and prepared to act as he was told.
At this time, Immortal Emperor Nanming's joking voice also rang in Wang Anye's ears: "Boy An Ye, you can play whatever you want, and you can get through as many levels as you want. If you get stuck, it's okay, I will take action.
"
Before Wang Anye could speak, the elder in charge of the assessment had already noticed him and asked kindly: "Is this young master also preparing to take the assessment?"
A polite attitude naturally comes with prerequisites.
Wang Anye is well-dressed, has an unworldly temperament, and is already at the peak of the True Immortal Realm at a young age, which shows that he has outstanding qualifications.
The storage ring he wears on his finger is definitely not an ordinary sacred storage ring.
The sword box on his back is also made of extremely expensive materials, and there is a faint aura of the Hunyuan Dao Sword inside.
All these indicate that this young man has an extraordinary background.
Even if he is not as good as the Jiang Wuwang just now, he is definitely a young disciple carefully cultivated by some big force, and maybe he will be the quasi-god son in the future.
Zhuanxu Shrine is about to be born. Now is a time of great strife. Almost all major powers with money and resources are preparing for this. It is reasonable to cultivate two more quasi-god sons.
Although the Immortal Formation Alliance has a transcendent status, it is not in the same class as those major forces with Immortal Emperors at their command.
For a young man like this, if you jump in line, just jump in line~just treat him like another Jiang Wuwang.
"I'm Wang Anye, from [Wandao Xuantian]." Wang Anye didn't mean to put on airs. He raised his hand and saluted the elder and introduced himself politely.
Wandao Xuantian?
The assessment elder was slightly startled.
Wandao Xuantian is undoubtedly one of the Thirty-three Heavens.
Although the territory of Wandao Xuantian is not the smallest, the world group in the void is fragmented and messy, and there is often a huge sea of void between the worlds. By analogy, it is like an enlarged version of turbulence.
Islands.
In the past, Wandao Xuantian was under the joint jurisdiction of Nanming Temple and Ziwei Temple. Later, something happened to Wuji Temple, and this territory was squeezed into Wuji Temple as a habitat for reproduction.
Undoubtedly, it was a remote, backward, and poor place.
Could it be that this young man was born in Wuji Palace?
That's not right~ The Wuji Palace is so poor, and it is already difficult to train a Xinglan Goddess. How can it possibly train a second quasi-god son?
While the assessment elder's thoughts were racing, Wang Anye had entered the Nine Star Formation Monument through the gap in space and started the challenge mode.
Although Wang Anye modestly said that his level in the formation method was not solid enough, his level was not comparable to that of ordinary assessors.
Not long after entering the Nine-Star Formation Monument, he easily passed the first level, then started the second level, and quickly passed the third level.
It was at this time that Immortal Emperor Nanming's voice sounded in his ears again: "You are dishonest, your level of formation is called 'somewhat knowledgeable'? I think you are quite capable~"
"?"
Wang Anye raised a question mark, and then reacted suddenly, shocked: "Senior, are you really following me? Isn't this nine-star formation monument able to isolate all parasitic souls to prevent cheating?"
The conversation between the two people was conducted with spiritual thoughts. The Nine-Star Formation Monument should have been very sensitive, but it seemed to be "blind" and did not notice anything strange at all.
"Haha, do you think I'm joking?" Immortal Emperor Nanming said in a smug tone, "Although this Nine-Star Formation Monument is quite cleverly designed, how could it possibly be able to guard against me? You can just play around, I'll tell you the truth behind it.
"
This is really cheating...
Wang Anye felt a little uneasy and felt a deep sense of guilt.
Ever since he was a child, he has always done things upright and never engaged in crooked ways. His heart is full of positive energy. No matter how hard he studied in the clan school, he has never cheated.
How could he accept such a method that was obviously cheating?
He had already made up his mind that if this "senior" really tried to cheat, he would pop up the Nine-Star Formation Monument himself and end the assessment.
After figuring this out, Wang Anye no longer struggled, suppressed distracting thoughts and continued to pass the level.
The fourth level.
The fifth level.
Then comes the sixth level.
Such neat and fast breakthrough speed naturally attracted the attention of the Taoist Master of the Third Formation and the Taoist Changgeng.
The two of them couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
The fact that you passed the previous levels so neatly means that you still have some energy left. Maybe, maybe you can get through the eighth level?
However, they also knew in their hearts that this boy's hope was still very slim. After all, judging from the speed at which he could clear the level in the early stage, he was still a step behind Jiang Wuwang.
Fortunately, Wang Anye is not weak either. After all, he has many masters since he was a child. Although the formation knowledge he has learned is complex, it has a complete pedigree and a very wide range of coverage. It can be said that he has learned from the strengths of many experts.
A moment later, he successfully passed the sixth level, and the sixth star also lit up on the nine-star array tablet outside.
As of now, he is equivalent to having won the title of [Six-Star Array Mage].
However, after entering the seventh level, he encountered difficulties and was stuck at the last step of the seventh level. No matter how he changed his mind, he could not solve the last formation.
"You're only half a step away from passing the seventh level. At your age and level, you can be called 'excellent'. Zhan Tian has a good vision and has taken on a good apprentice." Immortal Emperor Nanming praised him.
It was obvious that Wang Anye's formation strength had reached its peak at this point, and it was his turn to take action next.
"Senior, wait a moment."
Sensing Immortal Emperor Nanming's intention, Wang Anye hurriedly stopped him: "I have one last trick that I haven't tried yet."
"?"
The Immortal Emperor of Nanming is inexplicable.
Now that it’s like this, what else can you do?
He was suspicious in his heart, but it was not easy to dampen the enthusiasm of the young man. After hesitating for a moment, he agreed: "Then hurry up, kid, don't waste time."
"Okay senior."
Wang Anye didn't hesitate, he raised his hand and made a sword gesture.
"Qiang!"
In the sword box, the Tiandao Sword was suddenly unsheathed.
The fierce sword intent swept out and filled the entire formation space.
When Immortal Emperor Nanming saw this, he was immediately speechless: "Boy, is this your last move? This formation space is testing your level in the formation, not letting you break it with force!
"
If the formation can be broken through with brute force, then what is the significance of the existence of this nine-star formation monument?
etc?
Isn't this the Tiandao Sword?
Immortal Emperor Nanming stared outside the Nine Star Formation Monument, and his expression suddenly became a little hard to describe.
Tsk~ That piece of shit Zhan Tian actually passed the Zhan Tian Dao Sword to boy An Ye?!
"Senior, I'm not planning to act recklessly." Wang Anye didn't know the twists and turns in Immortal Emperor Nanming's heart. He explained to Immortal Emperor Nanming seriously, and then waved towards the Heaven-Destroying Dao Sword.
The Tiandao Sword seemed to know what he was going to do, and flew over obediently, then quietly hovered a few feet in front of Wang Anye.
Wang Anye used his spiritual thoughts and flicked the hilt of his sword.
In an instant, the Tiandao Sword was spinning in the air.
At first, the Tiandao Sword rotated very quickly, but soon, its speed slowly slowed down, and finally stopped slowly. The tip of the sword revealed its sharp edge and pointed in a precise direction.
Wang Anye slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.
That’s it! You really don’t know the true face of Mount Lu, just because you are in this mountain!
Next, it's easy.
Then, Wang Anye worked hard and naturally broke the seventh formation, and then started to break into the eighth formation!
Is this okay?!!
When did the Tiandao Sword possess such a function?
No, no, no, that’s not right! This should be the luck of boy Anye...
Immortal Emperor Nanming was suddenly silenced.
When the seventh star on the nine-star formation tablet lit up, cheers filled the square.
Jiang Wuwang, who had always been calm as usual, suddenly had a leisurely expression on his face, and his eyes suddenly became serious.
A bad premonition came over him.
No way?
This kid can't really pass the eighth level, can he?
Such a twisting and turning situation surprised the Taoist Master of the Third Formation. He sat up straight without realizing it and began to feel a little uneasy.
"Brother Sanzhen, you seem to be saved." Taoist Master Chang Geng said with a smile, "At this level, he can at least be regarded as your direct disciple. Why don't you let him pass the eighth level secretly? In this way, the problem
Wouldn’t it be solved?”
Such suggestion made the Taoist Master of the Third Formation stunned for a moment.
But soon, he shook his head: "Cheating is not allowed. Senior Taishang has always been known for his stubbornness, and his spies must be watching here!"
However, the Taoist Master of the Third Formation had just finished speaking.
A faint voice sounded in his ears: "Sanzhen, what are you muttering about?"
Along with the sound of talking, the space in front of him and Taoist Chang Geng swayed slightly, and a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of them as if appearing out of thin air.
Taoist masters of the Third Formation and Taoist Changgeng were immediately shocked.
Before this figure appeared, they didn't even notice his existence at all! This was almost unimaginable for the two people who were already half-step Immortal Emperors.
It was also at this time that they finally saw the figure clearly.
It was an old man wearing a Taoist robe.
He looks a bit older, but his face is still rosy and shiny, and his figure is still tall and tall, not at all like the average old man.
His frosty white hair was fixed behind his head with a jade crown, not even a hair was exposed. His robes were also meticulously worn, without even a single wrinkle, and he looked very elegant.
The rich Taoist charm lingered around him, making his whole person seem to have a divine and holy flavor. Even if he stood still, the laws of heaven and earth seemed to be revolving around him.
However, the most impressive thing about him is his eyes.
Those eyes were deep and distant, as if countless thoughts had been deposited, and endless time seemed to have been deposited.
When they look at each other, they will unconsciously feel that time is passing by and time is ruthless.
If it weren't for the vague sense of illusion at the edge of his figure, no one would have realized that this was actually a projection.
!!!
Even if it was just a projection, Taoist Master Chang Geng and the Third Formation Taoist Master were so frightened that they trembled all over.
The two of them hurriedly stood up and saluted him respectfully.
"I have seen the Supreme God!"
"No courtesy." The Supreme Immortal Emperor waved his hand in a kind manner, "I heard that Wuwu is participating in the competition, so I just came to take a look. You just continue to watch the competition and don't pay attention to me."
Just take a look?
Sanzhen and Taoist Master Chang Geng didn't believe a word of this, but they didn't dare to show it at all on their faces. Instead, they both showed the same expressions.
"However, I have just seen that the boy named Wang Anye is not progressing through the level at the right level." The Taishang Immortal Emperor's profound gaze swept across the Nine Star Formation Monument vaguely, and the smile on his face became more friendly. "Perhaps one of them
There is something fishy, you might as well take a look and take a photo to avoid something unclean getting mixed in."
The Taoist Master of the Third Formation was stunned.
Is the Supreme Lord suspecting Wang Anye of cheating?
Dirty stuff?
What does that mean?
The Taoist Master of the Third Formation was confused, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what the Supreme Lord was talking about.
However, since the Supreme Immortal Emperor wants to see the passerby and take photos, then just watch it, and the Taoist Master of the Three Formations naturally does not dare to refute.
In order to prevent cheating and facilitate subsequent review, the performance of the challengers after entering the Nine-Star Formation Monument will be automatically recorded on the Tianji Photo Disk.
However, this kind of record is temporary. If no one retrieves it for a long time, the previous record will naturally be overwritten by the subsequent record. Of course, the time span of this "no one retrieves it for a long time" is also very long.
Now that Wang Anye has just passed the seventh level, the record is still fresh and naturally well preserved.
Soon, the Taoist Master of the Third Formation sent someone to obtain the photo record of Wang Anye when he passed the seventh level, and the three of them got together to check it out.
Everything was normal in the first half of the recording, until the second half of the recording was taken.
When the three of them watched Wang Anye take out a Dao sword and spin it in circles, and relied on it to pass the level.
The Supreme Immortal Emperor, the Taoist Masters of the Three Formations, and the Taoist Master Chang Geng all fell silent.
