Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

The "Three Elders" of the Xuanwu Empire do not refer to three fixed people. In fact, like Yaozi, "Three Elders" is just a title.

As for the candidates of the "Three Elders", they are not appointed by the empire, nor are they selected by the six super families, nor are they qualified by some kind of competition. Instead, they are selected by a very special organization. As for the name of this organization, it is the best-reputed alliance on the continent, "Merchant Alliance".

The Merchant Alliance does not belong to any empire, and has nothing to do with those aggressive super forces. However, it is not accurate to say that the Merchant Alliance is not aggressive. The power of the Merchant Alliance is mainly reflected in the hugeness of its organization and its terrifying absorption capacity.

The earliest Merchant Alliance is said to have originated in the land of chaos, and the earliest Merchant Alliance was also composed of some extremely weak chambers of commerce and exchanges.

Those super families, big forces, and big sects have strong military forces themselves, and they don't need to worry about being robbed even if they complete transactions across a long distance. But those small exchanges and auction houses will become the meat in the mouths of forces like Guilingmen and Blood Wolf Gang.

These small trading houses and auction houses were forced to make a living and could only choose to unite and keep each other warm, so the earliest business alliance gradually took shape in this form. However, because this business alliance was originally established for survival, its organization is relatively loose.

However, as this business alliance gradually grew, it gradually had an impact on the transportation and trading of goods on the entire continent. As a result, some large trading houses and auction houses also began to ask to join it, and were willing to abide by all the rules originally formulated by the "business alliance".

In this way, the business alliance gradually rose on the entire continent. Its loose structural characteristics made it not aggressive, but at the same time it had strong permeability, allowing the business alliance to spread rapidly on the mainland and continuously absorb "allies".

In the final competition of the imperial capital competition to select medicine children, the "three elders" elected by the business alliance will be invited every year to serve as the final judges.

Although the three old men who appeared in front of them had ordinary cultivation, each of them had a high status in their respective exchanges. The most important thing is that the three men's eyesight in identifying the quality of various items is far superior to that of ordinary people. In addition, the Chamber of Commerce has always been famous for its trustworthiness, so people are also very confident in the "three elders" elected by the Chamber of Commerce.

The three elders walked out of the main gate of Emperor Mountain. It is called the main gate, but in fact it is just a huge and magnificent cave, but because it is the gateway to Emperor Mountain.

The three elders slowly walked into the square, which immediately caused a lot of noise and discussion. The heads of the three families of Yaosu and Wang all looked very ugly. If they made a judgment now, it would undoubtedly be very passive for the three families.

The contestant of the Yao family was kicked out, and the remaining two people might not be able to hold on to the end, and Zuo Feng was almost ignored by them. If it weren't for Duan Yueyao of the Medicine Gate, the three of them would never accept to make a judgment now. At least under the previous alliance, the Medicine Gate where Duan Yaoyao was and the three major families had already stood together.

Among those who also looked ugly, there was also the head of the Gui family, Gui Zhong. His Gui family had been fully prepared before. Although they were not as good as Hua Zheng, Duan Yueyao and Yao Ling, he was confident that he could compete with them.

Moreover, he had clearly opposed the king Xuan Hong before. If Xuan Hong's side really got the crystal of the imperial formation, his doomsday would not be far away.

But just when he was about to lose his temper, a voice came over, and that voice clearly told him to stay calm and not to act rashly. Now Gui Zhong alone had no ability to control the situation. Even if he was unwilling, he could only grit his teeth and endure it temporarily.

In and out of the field, except for a few people who were still refining medicine, everyone else had already focused their attention on the "three elders" and the three people who had finished refining medicine.

The three old men wore different clothes, but the patterns on each piece seemed to have special meanings, and they should represent a force.

The three old men came to the table and selected a contestant's pills to carefully examine and taste them. These people observed very carefully, almost putting their eyes on the crystal bottle to observe carefully.

This crystal bottle is transparent in itself, and with the special treatment when it was carved into a bottle, the items in the bottle will be magnified from the outside, so that the details can be seen more clearly.

After the three old men carefully observed it, they would walk away together and take turns to look at the pills made by others. In this way, after the three of them moved twice, they would have looked at the pills of the three people present.

After the three old men carefully observed it, they gathered together and began to discuss. Xuan Hong, who was on the high platform, inadvertently lowered his head to look at the three old men, with a slight smile in his eyes.

The atmosphere at this time was originally very solemn, and Huang Tao of the Fengtian Dynasty came with a group of masters, which made the atmosphere here more gunpowder.

The three old men seemed to have a dispute over the quality of the pills. The three old men were arguing with each other, and one of them had a slightly ruddy face, as if he had really started a fire.

The somewhat angry old man seemed to have a disagreement with the other two. He swung his sleeves and was about to leave, but was stopped by the other two old men.

Xuan Hong was not surprised at all when he saw what was happening below, and he seemed very satisfied with the result.

Seeing that the old man who wanted to leave was forcibly dragged to stay, everyone looked over here. One of the two old men who had reached a consensus suddenly said, "The competition for selecting medicine boys has already come to a conclusion. Among the three people, Hua Zheng's pills are of the highest quality. This is our final evaluation result."

As soon as the man's voice fell, the old man who was forcibly dragged to stay shouted angrily, "No, your judgment has nothing to do with me, and this kind of judgment will never be made by our Duobao Pavilion. The reputation of our Duobao Pavilion is above all else. I will judge..."

Before the old man finished speaking, Xuan Hong on the high platform smiled sinisterly and interrupted the old man loudly, saying, "Since two people have reached a consensus, then this year's competition for selecting medicine boys has already come to a conclusion. It is the second son of this painter, Hua Zheng, who is the winner of the title of medicine boy."

The painter's Hua Yuan stared at Xuan Hong on the high platform, but there was no joy on his face. Before yesterday, he had dreamed of having someone in his family obtain the title of Medicine Son, help him get the crystal of the Imperial Array, so that he could control the great array of the imperial capital in his own hands, and let the painter dominate from now on.

But now, not only does he, the head of the painter family, have no power, but even the current painter has actually become Xuanhong's quasi-power. Whether Hua Zheng obtains the title of Medicine Son or the crystal of the Imperial Array, it has little to do with him, and he has a hunch that the painter's bad days are still to come.

Hua Zheng was ecstatic. As long as he could obtain the title of Medicine Son, his reputation would soon spread throughout the land of Xuanwu, and even other empires would know that this new Medicine Son Ming Hua Zheng was the elite among the elites on the land of Xuanwu. As for the crystal of the Imperial Array, he did not dare to be tempted. He knew that if that thing fell into his hands, he and his family would be in trouble.

Hearing Xuanhong announce that Hua Zheng had obtained the title of Medicine Son, Huang Tao was also full of joy, and he was ready to lead people to the square.

At this moment, several black shadows suddenly rushed out and flew towards their group of people. Because these black shadows were thrown out silently, except for a few people who saw the objects thrown out from where, most people have not even reacted yet.

Huang Tao seemed to be prepared. He released his spiritual field after a slight pause. The five strong men in the spirit refining stage who followed him also released their spiritual fields. These people not only protected themselves, but also protected the strong men around them, because everyone had guessed that the flying objects were not simple.

The black shadows came with amazing momentum and fell into Huang Tao's group in an instant. At this time, most people could see clearly that they were bloody meat balls. The moment those meat balls flew over, there was no fluctuation in them, just like a bunch of dead meat.

But when they fell into the crowd, the meat balls exploded instantly. It is hard to imagine that a flesh ball the size of an adult's fist actually contains a huge amount of flesh and blood. Every explosion is like a complete monster exploding in front of people, releasing poison.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."

The sound of insects chirping can be heard faintly in the flesh and blood, but people can't see anything else except meat scraps and blood drops.

Looking at the countless exploding flesh balls in Huang Tao's team from a distance, Yao Xun's eyes shrank slightly, and he said to himself coldly: "I didn't expect you to still study this thing all these years. It seems that the power is much stronger than before, but this thing still won't pose a threat to the strong men in the Refining Spirit Stage, but you..."

Just when Yao Xun was sighing to himself, he stopped talking before he finished speaking. He stared at the scene in front of him in a daze, a little bit unbelievable.

I saw that after those blood drops splashed on the warrior, they immediately seemed to have a strong corrosive ability, regardless of the obstruction of spiritual energy, and could directly penetrate the flesh and blood of the strong men in the Naqi Stage.

What shocked Yao Xun the most was that after those blood drops were sprayed on the spiritual defense of the strong men in the Refining Spirit Stage, they actually began to slowly erode it. This scene shocked almost all the strong men in the Refining Spirit Stage present.

You should know that the important factor that makes the strong men in the Refining Spirit Stage far superior to ordinary warriors in terms of both offense and defense is that the spiritual power itself is far stronger than the spiritual energy. If you want to deal with it, you can only rely on the spiritual power.

But the blood drops in front of them are clearly highly poisonous, and how can poison damage the spiritual realm? This shocked all the strong men in the Refining Spirit Stage, and at the same time, they felt waves of fear spreading in their hearts.
