Chapter 432: Volume Ding: Rising to the Top of the Qingyun Ranking
After everyone looked at the lists, they were very excited.
The sect and family list is also divided into three lists.
The sect list is one list, the family list is another list, and the total list of the two combined is another list.
The most concerned are always the top ten, followed by the top fifteen, top twenty, and top thirty.
The reason why these four positions are the most important is that it is generally recognized that the top thirty sects are local sects with certain strength, the top twenty are large sects with global coverage, the top fifteen means that they have the strength to challenge the top ten, and the top ten, needless to say, can barely be called super sects.
The attractiveness of the list after the 30th drops sharply, and the list after the 50th, unless it is related to their own personal interests, will not be paid much attention by irrelevant people.
The difference between the sect and family list and the personal list is that the list positions are clear, and there will not be a name after the 50th.
But then again, even if there are subdivided rankings, will you pay attention to the gap between the 68th and 75th?
Unless you are a member of these 68 or 75 sects or have a close relationship with them.
But the top ten or even top thirty sects will definitely not care too much about these rankings.
Three years ago, the Chonghua Sect ranked 37th on the sect list and 19th on the overall list. Now the sect list has rapidly risen to 18th, and the overall list has jumped to 24th.
It is obvious that the Dao Palace has accepted the fact that the Chonghua Sect has annexed the Yuhan Sect and included Linghu Zui, the Purple Mansion True Man, in the Chonghua Sect. Otherwise, according to Shang Jiuling and others' initial judgment, if the Dao Palace did not recognize the annexation of the Yuhan Sect into the Chonghua Sect for the time being, the Chonghua Sect should be around 25th on the sect list and around 33rd to 35th on the overall list.
In addition to the Chonghua Sect itself, the Chonghua disciples are most concerned about their mortal enemy, the Baishi Sect.
The result is also a mixed blessing.
The good news is that the strength of Chonghua Sect is rapidly approaching that of Baishi Sect, but the bad news is that Baishi Sect is still growing further, and the speed is not slow. Even though Chonghua Sect has experienced three years of crazy expansion, it is still a certain distance away from it.
Baishi Sect ranks 14th in the sect list, and has entered the top 15.
The top 15 means that Baishi Sect has the opportunity to challenge the title of the top ten sects in the next few Dao Conferences. Of course, it is just an opportunity. There are countless sects that are in the top 15.
Entering the top 15, every advancement is not easy, and the competition is extremely fierce.
In the overall list, Baishi Sect also ranks 19th, entering the top 20.
The current Baishi Sect can be called a real big sect. After 20 to 30 years of preparation, the current Baishi Sect is really beginning to rise. The first to feel the chill it reveals is not Chonghua Sect far away in Hebei, but the former top sect of Yi County - Huanzhen Dao.
The relationship between the two sides is now tense and ready to explode.
The ranking of Huanzhen Dao did not change much this time. It moved up one place in the sect list and ranked 26th. It moved up two places in the overall list and ranked 36th. It has been completely left behind by Baishimen. It can be said that Baishimen has completely surpassed Huanzhen Dao and now has a huge advantage.
"Zhuang Wenjing, the leader of Huanzhen Dao, is here to visit?" Chen Huaisheng and his group heard the news as soon as they returned to the Taoist temple. They couldn't help shaking their heads: "It's too late to cram at the last minute. How can we get involved in this muddy water now?"
"Why not?" Fang Baoliu was surprised: "Just sit back and watch Baishimen defeat Huanzhen Dao, or even annex Huanzhen Dao and unify Yi County?"
"Baishimen can definitely defeat Huanzhen Dao, but it may not be able to annex it." Chen Huaisheng continued to shake his head.
"Could it be that Huanzhen Dao can still survive?" Fang Baoliu was puzzled: "According to the style of Baishimen, once Huanzhen Dao is defeated, it will definitely be eaten alive. The last time we retreated from Langling, Baishimen did not have the strength, but now, I am afraid there will be no such good thing."
"Zhenzhen Dao will definitely not survive, but Baishimen swallowing Huanzhen Dao will have a huge impact. I am afraid that it will directly enter the top ten sects. Not many people are happy to see this happen." Chen Huaisheng smiled, "Someone will jump out to intervene."
"But intervention will cost a price. Who is willing?" Fang Baoliu also understands this truth. Who can let others sleep soundly beside the bed? But courage requires strength. Just talking may not scare Baishimen.
Yi County is adjacent to Qiao County in the east, Huai County in the west, and Si County in the north. In addition, there is also an external force, Zijin Sect, in Yi County, which has not yet sorted out Yiyang Prefecture in three years. I am afraid that no one is willing to see Baishimen expand endlessly like this.
This is especially true in Yi County, a southern county that lacks powerful aristocratic families to balance and restrict the sects.
But are they willing to jump out and fight Baishimen directly?
Fang Baoliu is not optimistic about Zijin Sect or the sects in Huai County and Qiao County.
Zijin Sect has not yet sorted out Yiyang and needs to work hard. It simply does not have the energy, unless Baishimen wants to enter Yiyang directly, but now Baishimen is not so unwise.
And the sects in Qiao County and Huai County want to collapse the county to fight, are they ready for this?
In other words, there may be support and assistance, but a direct battle is hanging.
"It depends on all parties involved." Chen Huaisheng shook his head: "It is not our turn to consider such matters. The sect has not thought about returning to Langling and Yiyang for the time being. Can we continue to work quietly in Langling and Yiyang?" It is enough for Langling and Yiyang to maintain their current influence.”
"Indeed, we shouldn't think about this matter now, but about Lang Jun's own affairs." Fang Baoqi's eyebrows were full of pride, mixed with a bit of worry, "Tenth on the Qingyun Ranking, I don't know if it will be exciting. Many people, how many people will challenge you during this meeting?”
"I'm not too worried about this. According to the Qingyun List challenge rules, each sect cannot challenge more than one person, and the age cannot be one year older than the person being challenged..." Chen Huaisheng was calm and composed.
"I was only twenty-five at the end of last year. In other words, if anyone wants to challenge me, they can only be under the age of twenty-five. Haha, I don't know how many people in their mid-twenties have established foundations, so What I should be worried about are the people in front of me. The top five are all at the third level of Qi Refining and the second level of Qi Refining. I don’t need to take risks, but the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth place, two thirty Six, one is forty-two, and the other is forty-nine, they are all at the first level of Qi refining. It is the Tao Palace’s evaluation that their actual combat strength is stronger than mine. I am really not convinced..."
Chen Huaisheng is quite confident about this.
Of course there are a lot of foundation building, but the Qingyun Ranking is divided into fifty years old. There is almost no middle level of foundation building under the age of fifty, which is basically the first level of foundation building. Chen Huaisheng has seen the Qingyun Ranking until the 32nd level, which is the first level of foundation building. , and those who are not ranked from thirty-three to the last fifty are all at the peak of Qi refining.
In other words, there are only thirty-two people under the age of fifty in the entire Da Zhao cultivation world who are building foundations. Among them, there are two people at the third level of foundation building, three people at the second level of foundation building, and twenty-seven people at the first level of foundation building. Chen Huaisheng ranks first in strength. The fifth position among the twenty-seven people is already quite high.
The challenge on the Qingyun Ranking can be skipped, but if you say that the first level of foundation building can be skipped to challenge the second level of foundation building, or the second level of foundation building is important, it can be skipped to challenge the third level of foundation building. Whoever wants to challenge the foundation building with the peak of Qi refining must think carefully. Considered.
This gap is not as simple as the first-level distance between the first, second or third level. Almost no one can say that he can challenge the foundation building at the peak of Qi refining. Maybe there is, that is really rare in the world, and basically There are many geniuses like Yu Fengqian who lack the chance to become enlightened in the face of battle.
Even if there are people who are younger than Chen Huaisheng at the peak of Qi refining, Chen Huaisheng thinks that there may not be any. At the peak of Qi refining at twenty-six, are there even among the top three sects?
"But the list also said that for this challenge to the qualifying competition, foreign cultivators can also sign up. Five years of practice for a foreign cultivator is equivalent to one year of practice for a human cultivator..." This is what Fang Baoqi is most worried about.
The biggest change in the Taoist Association this time is that the foreign cultivators have been officially included in the personal list. In the past, although the Taoist palace recognized the foreign cultivators, they were only limited to sect battles, and the restrictions were very high, so there were very few foreign cultivators. Join the fray.
But this time, for some unknown reason, the Taoist Palace actually opened such a loophole and allowed foreign cultivators to participate in the individual ranking competition. In other words, foreign cultivators who are 110 years old can enter the Hidden Dragon and Tengfeng Ranking. Foreign cultivators under the age of 250 can challenge the Dragon Tiger Qingyun Ranking.
Chen Huaisheng also calculated that a cultivator like Xiong Zhuang who is more than 300 years old is already at the peak of foundation building strength, but when converted to age, he is already over 60 years old and is not qualified to participate in the Dragon Tiger Qingyun Ranking, but it also means that someone like When Xiong Zhuang was two hundred and fifty years old, he could participate in the competition for the Dragon Tiger Qingyun Ranking. And Xiong Zhuang had already transformed into two hundred and fifty years old, and he almost had the strength to build a foundation, so once this alien The inclusion of cultivation adds great uncertainty.
But for Chen Huaisheng, he is not too afraid of different cultivators.
Compared with human monks, alien cultivators have stronger offensive capabilities, but their defensive capabilities are more special.
Among the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, spells of wood, water and earth are not very sensitive to them. Neutral spells and metal spells are relatively better, but they are also limited. Only fire spells, including thunder spells, are not sensitive to these strange cultivators. It's the most lethal one.
And Chen Huaisheng just practices thunder magic, and the tamed alien beast is the Winged Fire Snake. It can be said that he is born with a lot of restraint against alien cultivators. Unless it is an alien cultivator that is much more powerful than himself, there are probably not many. A person is willing to choose his or her most breakthrough point.
The alien cultivators are not stupid. They also have connections among human cultivators, and they will inquire about the situation before challenging. Chen Huaisheng is definitely not a good target for the challenge, unless he is targeted.
