Chapter 415 Quota Ownership
The Shadow Killing Pavilion was originally a killer organization in the Tianshui Realm. However, since the establishment of the Tianling Sect, which monitors the Nine Realms, the Shadow Killing Pavilion naturally can no longer assassinate others at will. Over time, the Shadow Killing Pavilion has become a mercenary organization similar to a escort agency, only accepting protection missions and not killing missions.
However, having said that, most of the training methods of the Shadow Killing Pavilion are still secret methods, such as hidden weapons, stealth assassinations, etc.
He Jiongming not only practices secret techniques, but his strength should not be underestimated. Like Mu Changsheng, he has defeated two opponents in succession.
After the competition was announced to start, He Jiongming was the first to attack. He was a talisman master and he started with three talismans.
"Golden Sand Talisman, Yin Kui Talisman, Ding Kong Talisman." Mu Changsheng recognized the three talismans used by He Jiongming at a glance.
Among them, the golden sand talisman is an attacking talisman. Countless golden sands are like a rain of pear blossom needles, attacking Mu Changsheng from all directions.
The Dingkong Talisman is a special kind of domain talisman. Its powerful force almost freezes the space around Mu Changsheng, hindering Mu Changsheng's actions.
He Jiongming used the last Yinkui Talisman on himself, which could conceal his figure. Even if Mu Changsheng used his spiritual sense to investigate, he could not find any trace. At this time, He Jiongming instantly turned into a killer lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Although the three talismans of He Jiongming were extremely well coordinated, unfortunately, their grades were not up to the seventh grade, and they posed no threat to Mu Changsheng at all.
Mu Changsheng stood still, with a gray light flashing on his body. That was the sixth-grade top-level Shadow Projection Talisman that he used for self-defense. Its effect was similar to that of the Shadow God Talisman, and it could rebound the enemy's attack.
The golden sands filled the sky but were all bounced in all directions. Originally, Mu Changsheng couldn't find He Jiongming's invisible trace, but the rebounding golden sands pointed him in the direction of He Jiongming.
There was an area where the gold sand did not bounce along the normal trajectory, which was obviously where He Jiongming was hiding.
Mu Changsheng instantly activated the sixth-grade top-level magic speed talisman. The opponent used the air-fixing talisman to slow down his speed, so he used the magic speed talisman to make up for that part of the reduced speed. As the two offset each other, the air-fixing talisman had almost no effect on him.
Mu Changsheng took two steps closer and instantly covered the area where He Jiongming was hiding with the Seventh-Rank God-Slaying Formation.
In the God-Slaying Formation, He Jiongming's figure showed up on his own initiative. For him, since he was already trapped, there was no point in remaining invisible.
"Seventh-grade formation!" He Jiongming looked at the formation in front of him, feeling suffocated and powerless. Even if he had many tricks, in the face of absolute power, he was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
After two unsuccessful attacks, He Jiongming chose to admit defeat, and Mu Changsheng won another battle without bloodshed.
Afterwards, Mu Changsheng fought five more battles in a row and won all five. Even if he encountered an opponent stronger than He Jiongming, he could win the game as soon as he used the seventh-grade formation.
Perhaps it was Xiao Jingshan's special arrangement. After Mu Changsheng won eight games in a row, his last opponent was Lin Yu. At this time, the outcome of the two was no longer important, because they had both won eight games in a row. No matter who won or lost, both of them could get a place in the refining process.
"I give up." "I give up."
Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu both shouted their surrender almost at the same time.
"You two seem to be in sync with each other." Xiao Jingshan said jokingly.
"Junior Brother Mu was just being modest." Lin Yu said calmly. She knew she would lose, so she chose to admit defeat.
"Since it doesn't matter whether we fight or not, we might as well not fight." Mu Changsheng explained. He was actually worried that he would not be able to stop and hurt Lin Yu. After all, this was not an illusion competition within the sect.
There are three places for the middle stage of tribulation, two of which are occupied by Mu Changsheng and Lin Yu, and the last place will be decided between Du Qiyu and Zhang Nanxun.
Zhang Nanxun is a cultivator from the Zhang family of the Tianshui Realm. The Zhang family, the Yingsha Pavilion, and the Huan family are considered the three major forces in the Tianshui Realm. They all have eight-realm strongmen in charge. The three families control the West Sea, East Sea, and South Sea of the Tianshui Realm respectively, and are evenly matched.
It is said that Zhang Nanxun is the legitimate son of the head of the Zhang family. His family background is even better than Du Qiyu's. In the end, it was Zhang Nanxun who won and won the last spot in the mid-stage of tribulation cleansing.
What followed was the selection of cultivators in the late stage of tribulation, and Ruan Xiong naturally participated in it.
After rounds of competition, Ruan Xiong won a spot for training with a record of nine wins and no losses. In addition to him, another disciple from the sect also got a spot.
In this way, the two major sects have already occupied six of the nine places for cleansing in the competition. Xiao Jingshan won the admiration of all the disciples present. They admired him for not only seeking real benefits for the disciples of the sect, but also protecting the reputation of the sect.
Then, it was time for the final auction for the tenth spot in the refining process. This auction was conducted without a reserve price, and the sound of bidding was endless.
The auction lasted for a full quarter of an hour, and the spot was finally won by Du Ruchang at a high price of 185,000 top-grade spirit stones. He naturally bought it for his son Du Qiyu.
It's not that no one can't afford a higher price, but the price of 185,000 top-grade spirit stones is already a big loss. A normal cultivator who is transcending the tribulation uses top-grade spirit stones to practice and transcend the tribulation, and breaking through a small realm cannot even use 100,000 top-grade spirit stones.
As promised, Xiao Jingshan distributed the 185,000 top-grade spirit stones obtained from the auction to the hundreds of tribulation-receiving monks who did not obtain the opportunity for cleansing. Each person received more than a thousand top-grade spirit stones. Although it was not much, it was a consolation after all, and the trip was not in vain.
"The matter has been settled. Everyone who should disperse should disperse. There are still many opportunities out there." Xiao Jingshan said to everyone, so that no one would disturb Mu Changsheng and the others from their training.
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Huang Fan also appeared at this time. He smiled and said to Xiao Jingshan: "Junior Brother Xiao, you have worked hard. From now on, I will take care of these people's branch veins and cleanse them. You should go and grab the treasure. Breaking through as soon as possible is the right way."
"Then I'll trouble you, senior brother." Xiao Jingshan said with a fist salute, and after the task was completed, he left, his figure disappearing from the spot immediately.
Huang Fan turned around and solemnly instructed Mu Changsheng and the other ten people: "Remember, after entering the branch vein, you are only allowed to absorb the branch vein's spiritual power to break through your cultivation. You must not do anything that damages the branch vein. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
"Yes." Mu Changsheng and others answered respectfully. They also understood the importance of the spiritual vein. Even if what was in front of them was just a small branch of the spiritual vein, it could not be damaged in the slightest. Naturally, no one would seek death.
Afterwards, the cleansing of the branch meridians began. Mu Changsheng would naturally give such a precious opportunity for cleansing and breakthrough to his own body.
Although the rule set by Xiao Jingshan is that one person can only get one chance to cleanse the branches, except for the Tianling Realm, the branches of the Tianshuang, Tianshui and other realms will appear in the future, and he will be able to fight for the opportunity to cleanse again. Mu Changsheng’s idea is that it would be best to use the branches of these realms for cleansing, so that both the original body and the clone can quickly break through to the peak of tribulation, and then enter the Divine Sea realm!
When Mu Changsheng stepped into the branch vein, he instantly felt the immense spiritual power of the branch vein. This was not ordinary spiritual power of heaven and earth, but the origin of a world, so it could help cultivators break through quickly.
Mu Changsheng and his ten companions dispersed among the branches and began their practice of breakthrough without disturbing each other.
However, no matter how fast the cleansing is, it will still take several days. Mu Changsheng does not plan to be idle during these days, so his clone in white goes outside to continue searching for opportunities and treasures.
Mu Xun, Lin Yu and Ruan Xiong had the same plan as Mu Changsheng and continued to form teams.
