After Fifty Years Of Fishing In Forbidden Areas, The Saint Begged Me To Come Out.

Xiao Chuan turned his head and glanced at Gu Yan, frowning slightly.

He naturally recognized this person and was very close to Her Royal Highness the Saint.

He learned from Mo Lan.

Gu Yan and Her Royal Highness the Saint are childhood sweethearts.

The two had a good relationship since they were children.

After they both joined the Xuantian Dao Sect, even though one was in the inner sect and the other was far away in the outer sect, they still kept in touch.

"Do you know this consultant?" Xiao Chuan asked.

"We had some interactions with each other when we were in the outer sect, and we defeated him many times back then." Qiu Wuji replied.

"He is also considered a talent, but it's a pity that he found the wrong opponent."

"Don't talk about the Cave Heaven Realm, even the Soul Refining Realm, you can handle it easily." Xiao Chuan said calmly.

"Senior Brother Xiao, please don't flatter me." Qiu Wuji said with a smile.

Gu Yan, who was not far away, saw that Qiu Wuji was only joking with the disciples on the side, paying no attention to what he meant. He suddenly felt that he had been greatly humiliated.

"Qiu Wuji, don't think you can escape by not saying anything and pretending to be dead. You'd better pray that you won't meet me in the first duel!" Gu Yan pointed at Qiu Wuji and said.

"Okay." Qiu Wuji replied calmly.

The conversation between the two attracted the attention of other disciples.

However, most of the Sifeng disciples knew Gu Yan.

After all, Gu Yan came from the outer sect. He came from behind, showed strong talent, and made his own name.

In this martial arts competition, Gu Yan can be regarded as Jin Guangfeng's seed player.

The elders and brothers of Jinguang Peak have high hopes.

Of course, what he is most famous for is not his strength and talent.

But the relationship with Han Yuerou.

The saint had appeared in public many times, and Gu Yan was right beside her.

If a saint wants to participate in the spiritual path trial, she needs four people with outstanding talents and powerful strength to serve as guardians.

Ten years ago, the empress chose three for her.

But the plan could not keep up with the changes, and one of the guardians died during an experience.

The other protector didn't know what caused the cultivation to stagnate and failed to fulfill his talent.

Now, the saint only has one confirmed guardian, and there are three more guardians.

Many disciples agreed that Gu Yan would become the saint's protector in the future.

After all, the relationship between the two is there.

Moreover, Gu Yan's talent and strength are outstanding.

If he makes a name for himself in this martial arts competition, he will probably become the Saint Protector.

"Isn't that Jin Guangfeng's advisor? Judging from his tone, he seems to be quarreling with someone."

"I said, this Junior Brother Gu is not only gifted, but also looks very talented. It's no wonder he is so close to the Saint."

"Are you handsome? He's average. I think the man he was quarreling with is more handsome. The short-haired man next to him is also quite handsome."

"Both of them are disciples of Ziyun Peak. I haven't seen them very often. I guess their strength and talent are just average. If you offend Junior Brother Gu, I'm afraid there will be no good results." Several female disciples discussed in low voices.

They naturally heard the conversations of the disciples around them.

However, in such a world where strength is respected, people just like to talk nonsense and point fingers.

If you care about this, you might as well dig a well and jump in.

When the martial arts competition begins, just use your strength to silence these people.

As time goes by, there are more and more people in the martial arts field.

There were streaks of light flying across the sky and landing on the high platform in front.

There are chairs one after another on the high platform, where the leaders of the Four Peaks sit.

As Yang Pinglong, the master of Ziyun Peak, took his seat, all the masters of the four peaks arrived.

There were three or two people sitting next to each peak master. They were all the elders in charge of each peak.

"It's time to begin." A fat man with a white beard and a friendly face said to the middle-aged man standing in front of him. He was Song You, the master of Jinguang Peak.

"Follow your orders." The middle-aged man accepted the order, then jumped down from the high platform and stood on the largest stone platform in the center of the martial arts field.

"Quiet!"

The middle-aged man shouted. This sound was full of energy and mixed with a strong spiritual power, which made most of the disciples' ears buzz.

The martial arts arena fell silent instantly.

Then, the middle-aged man said: "I am the third elder of Jinguang Peak, Ye Mo, the host of this martial arts competition."

"I announce that the Four Peaks Martial Arts Competition will begin now!"

"After discussions among the four peak masters, the first level of this martial arts competition is a realm test. All the disciples whose strength is below the Sea Transformation realm will be eliminated. The remaining disciples will fight in pairs, and their opponents will be determined by drawing lots!"

Ye Mo introduced the rules of this martial arts competition.

As soon as these words came out, it caused quite a commotion.

"I'm the second one, why is the threshold for this session so high? It's directly mentioned to the Sea Transformation Realm. What should I do if I only reach the Aperture Realm?"

"What else can I do? Just go home."

"That won't work. I have to stay and watch the battle."

"It's pretty good. What's so exciting about fighting below the Sea Transformation Realm? A strong battle can make people's blood rush!"

"Quiet!"

"All the disciples who have signed up, come up now for the realm test. Those who fail to meet the standards will be eliminated directly!" Ye Mo shouted loudly.

Suddenly, one-third of the disciples in the martial arts arena stood up.

Qiu Wuji and Xiao Chuan also stood up and walked towards the stone platform in the middle.

The martial arts arena is very large, with more than one stone platform used for fighting.

The central stone platform is the largest, surrounded by eight small competition platforms.

There are two people in charge on each competition stage, responsible for testing the disciples' realm.

Qiu Wuji and Xiao Chuan casually stepped onto a competition stage and lined up.

The deacons use a stone specially designed to test the strength of spiritual power to test the realm of their disciples. It is called Ji Ling Stone.

Only when the spiritual power reaches a certain intensity can the Ji Ling Stone shine.

And this strength standard is the Sea Transformation Realm.

It is impossible for warriors who have not reached the realm of sea transformation to make Ji Lingshi shine.

"Isn't this thing a test of spiritual power? It's very unfriendly to a pure physical training warrior like me." Qiu Wuji thought to himself.

Soon, it was his turn.

"Ziyun Peak Qiu Wuji." Qiu Wuji reported his name and mountain gate.

"Okay, put your hand on the Ji Ling Stone." The young deacon in front of him said.

"Let me try." Qiu Wuji put his hand on a transparent stone fixed on the stone pillar in front of him.

He released his energy and blood, but the stone did not react and did not emit light.

"It's still not comprehensive enough. It can't even detect the power of Qi and blood." Qiu Wuji shook his head.

For the sake of efficiency, the deacon shouted loudly without any hesitation: "Ziyun Peak, Autumn Boundless, eliminated!"

As long as someone fails to meet the standards, the deacon in charge will shout his name and declare him to be eliminated.

Gu Yan, who was on the other stone platform, burst out laughing after hearing Qiu Wuji's name.

He almost forgot that Qiu Wuji was just a pure physical practitioner.

Naturally, physical cultivation cannot cause the Ji Ling Stone to shine.

In other words, Qiu Wuji was not qualified to participate in the martial arts competition at all.

"Wait a minute, I am a physical practitioner, this spirit stone cannot test my realm."

"So what about physical training? If you don't reach the standard, you won't be able to participate in this martial arts competition." The young deacon replied.

"What's the use of having a realm? Just have strength." Qiu Wuji replied.

"Haha, boy, I think your tone is very crazy. Then prove to me that you have the strength to transform into the sea."

The young deacon suddenly became interested when he saw Qiu Wuji's arrogant words.

"Do you still have Ji Lingshi?" Qiu Wuji suddenly asked.

"Of course there are, there are still a lot of Ji Lingshi."

"That's okay." Qiu Wuji smiled, grabbed the Ji Lingshi with his palm, and exerted force.

Just hearing the sound of clicking, a crack appeared on this smooth round spiritual stone.

Then, the cracks grew crazily, covering the entire stone in an extremely short time.

"I...tm?!"

When the young deacon saw the dense lines on the Ji Ling Stone, his face was full of surprise, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a moment.

Although this spiritual stone is not a treasure, it is also an extremely hard ore.

Generally, it would be difficult for a warrior to leave a mark on the sword when holding it, but Qiu Wuji actually pinched it into cracks. This must be such a powerful force.

At the very least, it must be at the late stage of the Cave Heaven Realm! ?

Just as the deacon was stunned, there was a loud crash.

The Ji Ling Stone was crushed into pieces by Qiu Wuji and scattered on the ground.

"how?"

"Can I participate in this martial arts competition?" Qiu Wuji asked with a smile.

"Yes, I definitely can!" The young deacon took a deep breath.

Announced: "Purple Cloud Peak Autumn Boundless, just detected an error, now the detection is correct, passed the realm test!"

"What's going on?" Gu Yan, who was on another stone platform, heard the deacon's voice and became confused.

"That's fine, then I'll have a chance to defeat you with my own hands!" Gu Yan clenched his fists.

When Qiu Wuji turned around and walked off the stone platform, the young deacon's expression became solemn, and he murmured in his heart: "I didn't expect there to be such a strange person, without any spiritual power fluctuations in his body, with simple physical cultivation, but with such great power, he can The Ji Ling Stone was crushed to pieces."

"With such power, you must at least be in the late stage of the Cave Heaven Realm. It seems that this martial arts competition is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I don't know if my Jin Guangfeng lineage can win the first place."

The test of Qiu Wuji's realm is nothing more than a simple episode.

The deacon was very efficient, and the realm test was completed in just half an hour.

I don’t know without testing.

This test actually directly eliminated one-third of the people.

The number of disciples participating in the martial arts competition instantly dropped to one hundred and twenty-nine.

Ye Mo emphasized the rules of the martial arts competition and placed a box on the central stone platform with a bunch of bamboo sticks in it.

"All the disciples who have entered the next round will draw lots, and those who draw the same numbers will compete." Ye Mo said loudly.

Qiu Wuji went on stage and lined up to draw lots.

"It's you, surnamed Qiu!"

Just as Qiu Wuji was queuing up, a cold voice came from the queue next door.

Qiu Wuji looked back and saw who he thought he was. It turned out to be Xia Houjie, whom he had met once before at Danfeng.

This man is Xiahou Tang's biological brother.

Unfortunately, according to the rules of the martial arts competition, Xiahou Tang won the top three in the last martial arts competition and was unable to participate in this martial arts competition.

However, the younger brother should help pay back some of the debts owed by the older brother.

"What are you doing?" Qiu Wuji asked.

"Haha, I remind you that you'd better surrender when you meet me, otherwise, your life will be in danger if your fists and feet are blind!" Xia Houjie warned.

"Is your life at stake?" Qiu Wuji sneered, then stretched out a finger. "one move."

"ah?"

"Hahaha, did I hear you right? You said you want to defeat me with one move? You braggart, I hope you can still be so confident when you meet me!" Xia Houjie laughed.

It was Qiu Wuji's turn to draw lots, and he picked one casually.

It says "Lu Shiwu".

"It's a bye... I'm so lucky." Qiu Wuji was speechless.

One hundred and twenty-nine people, fighting in pairs, a total of sixty-four games.

Logically speaking, one person will get a bye in every round.

However, the situation of the martial arts competition is changeable.

Every year, many disciples abandon the competition, mostly because of excessive consumption or serious injuries in the previous round. Even if they advance, they will not be able to participate in the next round. The bye disciples will take up this position.

Qiu Wuji noticed two blazing gazes, naturally coming from Gu Yan and Xia Houjie.

"Sorry, I have a bye."

Qiu Wuji showed his number and said with a smile.

For him, it doesn't matter whether he has a bye or not.

But for Xia Houjie and Gu Yan, getting a bye was great luck.

Although the principle of the martial arts competition is communication first, no harm to human life is allowed.

But everyone doesn't want to lose, they all want to make a name for themselves in the martial arts competition.

So I will try my best in every game.

It often happens that both sides are injured, and they become unconscious on the spot and are unable to play in the next round.

Having a bye means one less game and one less time to waste.

This will greatly improve the winning rate of the next game.

"Good luck is only temporary."

Xia Houjie clenched his fists. Although he said so, he was really jealous in his heart.

Why is it not me who gets the bye?

Gu Yan looked at Lu Shisi on his bamboo stick and felt extremely pity.

Just a little bit, just a little bit close to meeting Qiu Wuji.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if I save you one fight. Now I don't need to use all my strength to deal with you." Gu Yan said coldly, then turned and left.

The martial arts competition begins today, but only the first thirty-two games will be played today.

The next thirty-two games will not be held until tomorrow morning.

Qiu Wuji didn't stay long and went back after watching a few shows.

late at night.

At the foot of Jinguang Peak Mountain, Han Yuerou and Gu Yan were walking side by side.

"Yuerou, I will definitely win the top five in this martial arts competition!"

"Just the top five... it's not enough." Han Yuerou shook her head.

"If the top five is not enough, then go to the top three. If the top three is not enough, then go to the first. I will definitely meet the standards of becoming your protector!" Gu Yan said with determination.

"There are many people in the Four Peaks this year who are not inferior to you in strength, especially Xia Houjie from Ziyun Peak... Do your best. If you can really win the championship, I will recommend you to the master." Han Yuerou thought for a while and said. .

"Win the first prize!"

Gu Yan clenched his fists, knowing that winning the championship would be too difficult.

Unless you are very lucky, but if you rely only on luck, you will not reach the end.

"Don't worry Yuerou, I will work hard!"

"I have said many times, don't call me by my name in the inner sect, call me Saint." Han Yuerou frowned slightly and reminded.

"I understand, Your Highness the Saint." Gu Yan nodded in agreement.

I felt unhappy, but there was nothing I could do about it.

His current strength and status are not worthy of Han Yuerou, and he is not even qualified to call her name.

"By the way, after Qiu Wuji was released, he joined Ziyun Peak and participated in this martial arts competition."

"How dare he participate in a martial arts competition?!"

"Hmph, with his strength, he is just asking for trouble." Han Yuerou said disdainfully.

"How is the battle going today? Will he lose or win?"

"Qiu Wuji was very lucky. He got the number Lu Shi5 and got a bye in the first round. Unfortunately, I was the number Lu Shi4, so I almost missed it."

"Those who rely on luck will not reach the end. Starting from tomorrow, I will be there to watch the battle in person. Qiu Wuji will pay the price for what he has done," Han Yuerou said coldly.

"It's getting late, I'll go back first." Han Yuerou glanced at the night sky.

"I send you."

"No need." After saying this, Han Yuerou jumped up and disappeared into the night.

"Middle stage of Soul Refining Realm!"

"Yuerou, I will definitely work hard to become stronger, catch up with you, and gain recognition from the sect!" Gu Yan clenched his fists.

Later, he returned to the residence of Jin Guangfeng's disciples and found the courtyard where Yang Feng lived.

Yang Feng is his opponent tomorrow.

Junior fellow students from the same sect, in the early stage of the Sea Transformation Realm, this is a battle without any suspense.

He could pay some price to persuade Yang Feng to abstain. In this case...

The next day, Jin Guangfeng performed martial arts.

The martial arts competition is in full swing.

It wasn't until noon, when the sun was hitting the club, that the last few games were played.

Just after the sixtieth game, Qiu Wuji raised his head and looked at the distant sky.

There was a rather fierce aura coming quickly from there.

Xiao Chuan beside him also followed Qiu Wuji's gaze.

Immediately, a stream of blue light fell from the sky and landed on the viewing platform in front.

Everyone screamed in surprise when they saw the people coming.

"Look, it's Her Royal Highness the Saint!"

"Saint Han Yuerou, she is here to watch the battle!"

Qiu Wuji looked from a distance and saw two graceful figures jumping down from a flying carpet.

Dressed in Tsing Yi, the unrivaled beauty, like an iceberg that is difficult to approach, is naturally the saint Han Yuerou, known as the Ice Fairy.

The short-haired beauty with a good figure and a mask who followed beside her was the Shadow Guard Commander Mo Lan.

"The person next to Her Majesty the Saint must be one of the four commanders of the Shadow Guard next to Her Majesty the Empress. It seems she is also a stunning beauty!"

"With the protection of the four commanders of the Shadow Guard, Her Highness the Saint is the only one in the entire Xuantian Dao Sect who is treated like this."

"No, Her Royal Highness the Saint is going to enter the spiritual path. She is the future successor of our Dao Sect. It is said that after Her Highness the Saint returns from training, her strength has advanced to the middle stage of the Soul Refining Realm!"

"In the Soul Refining Realm, Her Royal Highness the Saint has only been practicing for more than ten years, and she already has the strength of an elder. She is truly gifted!"

"This is too powerful. The Spiritual Path Trial of the Ancient Piaomiao Sect will start in ten years. By then, won't Her Highness the Saintess want to ignite the divine fire?!"

"Hiss... He is in the divine fire realm at such an age, and he also has an ice jade body, so terrifying!"

Qiu Wuji opened Xuantian's divine pupils and looked at Han Yuerou.

Although she had a magic weapon on her body to cover her aura, Qiu Wuji could still see through her realm.

Because after condensing the blood elixir, the power of the Xuantian Divine Eyes has been enhanced, and ordinary magic weapons cannot cover his Xuantian Divine Pupils.

"On the surface, it looks like she is only in the middle stage of the Soul Refining Realm, but the real state is already approaching the Perfect Soul Refining Realm. She has an extremely powerful ice breath in her body."

"Ancient spiritual body—Han Jade Ice Soul Body." Qiu Wuji narrowed his eyes.

…

The saint's status in Taoism is transcendent.

When the four peak masters saw Han Yuerou coming to watch the battle, they bowed their hands politely.

Seeing this, Han Yuerou smiled and nodded.

No matter what, these peak masters and elders are all his seniors.

Moreover, since each realm is advanced, necessary respect must still be given.

After some polite greetings, Han Yue Rou and Mo Lan sat down.

She looked around, her eyes scanning the entire martial arts arena.

Then, it landed on Qiu Wuji in the corner below.

"Oh, you saw me." Qiu Wuji noticed this cold gaze, squinted his eyes, and looked at him with a smile.

"Autumn is boundless..." Han Yuerou looked away.

"After all, he and I are not on the same level, and there is no need to affect my practice and Taoism for this person." Han Yuerou took a deep breath and thought in her heart.

Master is right. Over the years, my state of mind has been very unstable and I have been affected by too many external influences.

If this continues, it will affect future practice.

Therefore, she had to correct her mentality.

In this world, like the endless autumn, there are so many people with bad personalities and bad deeds. They are trash but think they are righteous.

If she cares about everyone, she might as well dig a hole to bury herself.

This time, when she came to watch the battle, she also wanted to witness with her own eyes that Qiu Wuji paid a heavy price for what he had done, and to be able to settle something in his mind.

"Yuerou!" Seeing Han Yuerou coming, Gu Yan clenched his fists and felt extremely excited.

Then, he turned to look at Qiu Wuji, with a cold light in his eyes.

"Qiu Wuji, you will definitely lose this time!"

The arrival of the saint caused a sensation, and under Ye Mo's control, the martial arts competition continued.

Immediately, the last game of the first round came.

Ye Mo stood on the stone platform and shouted: "The sixty-fourth match, Jin Guangfeng Gu Yan versus Jin Guangfeng Yang Feng!"

As Ye Mo's voice fell, Gu Yan stepped onto the stone platform in the center.

However, his opponent Yang Feng has not yet come to power.

Five minutes later, Ye Mo shouted: "Jinguang Peak Yang Feng abstained, and the disciple who had a bye in this round, Ziyun Peak Qiu Wuji, will take over!"
