Hidden Corners

"Is it an innate ability?" Fuyunzi frowned, feeling that something was a bit tricky.

Originally, he only used the solution of Bailu as a trigger to stimulate the Faceless Sword Sect to take action.

But now it seems.

This white deer seems to have a lot of hidden strength.

'You can't even use the magic weapon I gave you. Zhao Chi is completely unable to test out this kid's full strength.'

He looked at Yun Ling not far away. The old guy obviously realized something and was approaching and communicating quietly with the leader of the Time Sect.

"The winner is the Faceless Sword Sect, White Deer!"

The people from the Yuheng Sect shouted loudly again.

Li Chengyi, as the leader of the four small swordsmen of the Faceless Sword Sect in the Qingying Group, had high hopes. At this time, he instantly defeated Zhao Chi, which made the people of this sect and the Time Sect cheer loudly.

He was neither arrogant nor impatient, bowed slightly to all parties, turned around and left.

This battle is over.

On the other side of the court, Bai He was slashed by a sword and flew away, with fire splashing out. In front of the Yuhengzong woman named Shangguan Zi, he couldn't even put up a trace of resistance and raised his hands several times to admit defeat.

"Take a rest for thirty breaths and then have a final battle to determine one or two."

The announcement sounded.

Li Chengyi came off the field and stood beside Huo Qingkong.

"There's something wrong with the Qingmu Sword Sect." He whispered.

"I know." Huo Qingkong replied, "Their elders have colluded with the Yuheng Sect. It seems that the two sides have joined forces."

"What should we do?" Li Chengyi frowned slightly.

"You kids don't have to worry. Elder Yun Ling is prepared, and I will take care of the rest." Huo Qingkong said calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a fiery sight was projected from not far away.

It is the Honglin Sword Dingzuo of the Qing Mu Sword Sect.

There was a burning fighting spirit in the opponent's eyes, and it was obvious that he had been waiting for this battle for a long time.

Soon, the final battle begins.

Li Chengyi and Shangguan Zi of Yuhengzong stood opposite each other.

There were only two of them in the entire huge venue.

"You are very fast, but victory or defeat depends not only on speed." Shangguan Zi's eyes were piercing, and he bowed slightly, holding the flaming sword on his back.

"Prepare."

The announcer sounded.

"The decisive battle begins!"

Sound waves spread, fade, and land.

"Instant prison!"

"Feiyan!"

The two drew their swords at the same time and charged forward.

Uh-huh! !

Green light and red light suddenly intertwined.

Everything is quiet again.

Li Chengyi gently sheathed himself, turned around and walked towards the end of the court.

Behind him, Shangguan Zi fell to his knees with a pop, a large bloody hole opened in his abdomen, and blood splashed all over the floor.

She was completely unconscious, her pupils were dilated, and she had fallen into a coma.

In that moment of fighting, the shock caused by the huge power caused her to lose her fighting ability in an instant.

Another move.

People from the four factions didn't pay much attention to the Qingying group at first. After all, compared to the big group, the Qingying group was just an appetizer and a warm-up.

But with Li Chengyi's successive moves, the upper limit of the Qingying Group's strength was rapidly raised.

And the sword just struck had even reached a level of four times the speed of sound that most deacons could not touch.

Such speed made everyone watching the battle feel shocked.

"The number of Yuan Seals remains unchanged. It should be the special ability of the bloodline talent." An elder beside the Yuheng Sect Master said in a low voice.

"Yes, not a bad ability." Sect Leader Yuheng nodded.

At this point, the Qingying Group of the competition came to an end, and Li Chengyi won the first place without any suspense, and was granted the privilege of one-day enlightenment on the Tianjie Monument.

When he returned to the Faceless Sword Sect camp, Huo Qingkong had been called by Fu Yunzi to prepare for the upcoming big group competition.

"We have nothing to do from now on." Bai He came over happily with a bandage on his face.

"Congratulations, senior brother!" He hugged his fists.

"Congratulations." Qiu Chen also approached from behind with a smile.

Zhaoyuan was also at the end. She was seriously injured and still staggers when walking.

"Congratulations." She lowered her head and forced out two words.

"It's just a small matter. Everyone has just started to practice the skills. It's just luck to win. Only later can we see the true potential." Li Chengyi said modestly.

"Bai Lu, you are too humble. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that you are much stronger. You deserve to be ranked number one." Bai He said seriously.

"But you have to be careful. That Shangguan Zi and Zhao Chi are both geniuses with strong bloodline talents. When their talents explode later, their strength will increase very quickly." He added.

"Well, I'll be careful." Li Chengyi nodded.

He looked around. There were forests everywhere in the surrounding mountains. Maybe he could look for some flowers to suck.

However, considering the weird atmosphere just now, he temporarily suppressed the idea of ​​leaving the team.

This competition seems a bit dangerous. Flower energy can be inhaled at any time, but safety must be the first priority.

Not long after, the big group competition began.

The elders of the Yuheng Sect personally took action to reinforce the protective formations on the field.

Sixteen people from the four factions came on stage one after another, facing each other in pairs.

The ending has no suspense.

No matter who he faces, senior brother Huo Qingkong is always a sword.

He didn't draw his sword, he even just used the sword of wisdom to dodge in an instant.

Victory and defeat are divided.

Whether it is the strongest master of the Time Sect or the last master of the Qing Mu Sword Sect, Ding Zuo.

It's all one sword.

The only difference was that among all the opponents, Ding Zuo was the only one who was not injured.

Everything flows from high to low like flowing water, as if it is natural.

Huo Qingkong won without any trouble.

In just one day, the competition ended.

When the sky darkened, the Yuheng Sect Master began to distribute rewards.

"The reflections on the Tianjie Monument are from Shangguan Zi and Bai Lu. As for the shedding of Tiansi silkworms."

With a cold expression on her face, she stretched out her hand and found a translucent golden silkworm shell lying quietly in her palm.

The silkworm shell bloomed with golden light, and golden mist was faintly escaping around the body.

"Huo Qingkong, it's yours." She gently tossed the silkworm slough.

The silkworm transformed into a golden thread, flew across the audience, and landed firmly in Huo Qingkong's outstretched right hand.

"Thank you, Master."

"Are you so confident that I will be as decisive as you expected?" Sect Master Yuheng looked at Huo Qingkong and said loudly.

"I don't dare, I just feel that with the sect master's magnanimity, I won't do such scandalous things." Huo Qingkong replied inexplicably.

"Courageous" Sect Master Yuheng's cold face finally revealed a hint of obvious appreciation.

The Qing Mu Sword Sect had made a reservation with her this time to completely eliminate Huo Qingkong, taking advantage of the loopholes in the competition before the Faceless Sword Sect and the Time Sect had not reacted.

The original reservation was for Da Bi Shang to take action directly, but she rejected it.

Even if Huo Qingkong is a once-in-a-millennium genius, with her status and strength, it would be too much to attack and kill the opponent personally.

Therefore, the action on the big competition was changed to the action on the way back.

The rise of the Faceless Sword Sect threatened the Qingmu Sword Sect, and the other party offered her a price she could not refuse.

Moreover, the original plan was actually to abolish Huo Qingkong.

But when I woke up this morning, the plan reported over there was suddenly changed to completely killing this person.

Yuheng Sect Master didn't know the reason, but this did not prevent her from feeling dissatisfied.

"Thank you, Sect Master." Huo Qingkong cupped his fists and saluted.

Li Chengyi watched the whole process from the side, and Shangguan Zi had already come to take him to receive the one-day reward of Tianjie Monument.

He followed the female disciple of the Yuheng Sect who was still injured, all the way away from the main field of the competition, and went around from the left into the depths of the Yuheng Sect.

The entire sect's environment is quite strange. At regular intervals, red swords will appear hanging on the walls and stone pillars.

The long sword did not burn, but hung quietly like some kind of decoration, motionless.

After walking through a long and deserted street and walking to a remote courtyard, Shangguan Zi pushed the door open and entered.

Inside is a square courtyard.

In the center of the courtyard stood a huge tree with a trunk four to five meters thick.

The giant tree is tens of meters high, like a giant building. In the middle of the trunk is a strange gray-white stone tablet engraved with text.

"You can stay here for one day, I'll take my leave first." Shangguan Zi said quickly.

"Okay. Excuse me." Li Chengyi nodded and stepped into the courtyard.

Standing in front of the giant tree, he looked up at the stone monument.

"What do you want? A child?"

A deep and old voice slowly came from the stone tablet on the tree trunk.

Creaking, the backyard door closed behind him. Li Chengyi looked back and saw that Shangguan Zi had disappeared.

"I want to obtain the perfect Seven Mind Holy Spirit Skill." Li Chengyi thought for a moment and said.

"Sorry, the fate has not come yet." Tianjie Bei replied.

"Then, what can you do?" Li Chengyi frowned.

"I can provide you with ancient traces for you to observe and understand, but it can only be achieved once." Tianjie Monument said.

Li Chengyi looked at the big talking tree and slowly approached it.

Suddenly stretched out his hand.

He gently touched the strange words on the stone tablet.

A cold, hard touch reached his mind.

"You should try the language of flowers." Li Chengyi narrowed his eyes slightly, and the Flower of Evil mark on his right hand began to slowly release purple light.

Suddenly, his eyes fixed.

‘Flower language: Good luck +2! ’

launch.

Buzz.

In a daze, something mysterious and unknown flowed out of his mark.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Flower of Evil information feedback appears again.

‘Flower language: Good luck +2 (The Tianjie Monument will deepen its fate with you, and the ancient traces will be doubled.)’

That's all?

I have accumulated good luck for so long, right? ?

Li Chengyi frowned a little. Is it just a simple deepening of fate? ? Just gone?

Uh-huh! !

At this moment, new information came out quickly.

‘(The further the fate between Tianjie Monument and you deepens, the ancient traces will appear twice as many!)’

‘(The further the fate between Tianjie Monument and you deepens, the ancient traces will appear three times more!)’

‘(The fate between Tianjie Monument and you has deteriorated, and the ancient traces displayed will be upgraded to super-ancient traces.)’

‘(The fate between Tianjie Monument and you has extremely deteriorated, and the ancient traces presented have been upgraded to ancient traces.)’

‘(Tianjie Monument thinks that you are its half-brother, and decided to show ancient traces for you to understand!)’

‘(Tianjie Monument looks at you as if you were seeing your biological father, and decided to present his most precious things for your understanding, doubling the immemorial traces!)’

'(Tianjie Monument looks at you as if you are seeing the Holy Lord of Mingzhu. He is the idol that he has sworn to follow all his life. Tears flowed down his face, so he decided to follow you with all his life from now on! The stone monument will show all the traces of his collection. And burn your life and life energy to help you gain enlightenment, and your understanding will be doubled when you gain enlightenment.)'

"." Li Chengyi was stunned, completely frozen in place as he looked at the large chunks of information that appeared inexplicably in his mind.

"This is so meowing! How can it be like this!??"
