Chapter 240 Thunder Shakes the Sky
Meng Qi nodded gently, without making any expression, but he was excited and happy in his heart. This was the feeling he wanted! Unfortunately, it was rare, so he had to enjoy it for a while!
Stepping onto the ring, Meng Qi's first opponent was Gao Yang, the "Iron Sword of Hui County". He was in his twenties, holding a long sword, and had a stern expression.
Seeing Meng Qi with a knife on his back, Gao Yang took a breath and saluted solemnly:
"Young Master Su, please teach me."
With these words, the joy and pride in Meng Qi's heart dissipated with the wind, and the whole person was neither sad nor happy, and adjusted to the best fighting state.
All the past things, the glory on his body, did not disturb his fighting spirit!
"Please!"
The long sword reflected the light, and the chill was chilling.
For more than a month, the martial arts examination was in full swing. Due to the fact that the ring competition was different from the life-and-death fight, the opponent could not use many life-saving methods. Meng Qi relied on his own strength and rushed all the way. With an undefeated record, he won the title of the champion of Huanzhou martial arts examination. He could go to Shendu to compete for the rank of Jinshi in the early summer of next year.
…………
A quiet courtyard near Zhou County, because the previous owner was the Qingshou Constable of Half-Step Exterior Scenery, the martial arts room was specially built to isolate most of the sounds and breath.
Meng Qi looked down from a high place and slashed with a long sword. In a short moment, he broke nine swords in a row, one faster than the other, one fiercer than the other, layer by layer, domineering and fierce, air and vitality swarmed in, and a loud rumble suddenly shook the house and the beams and pillars.
The nine-fold sword energy seemed to have turned into terrifying "lightning lights", which were extremely fierce, extremely masculine and extremely strong. They hit the ground with a bang, the rammed earth cracked, and the dust flew everywhere. The whole house shook violently a few times, making a clanging sound.
Meng Qi put away his sword and took a breath, his face showing joy. More than half a month ago, after the martial arts examination, he finally integrated the incomplete true meaning of "Shenxiao Jiumie" into the purple thunder sword technique. "Crazy Thunder Shocks the Nine Skies" was initially formed and could be used as his own external killing move. After nearly 20 days of repeated training, he basically mastered "Crazy Thunder Shocks the Nine Skies". Just now, he had a sword that he felt in his heart and it came naturally!
However, he did not activate the purple thunder energy stored in his dantian. First, it would make too much noise after using it. There were the Six Gates County Office, the State Office, and the Wang family's ancestral home nearby. There were many powerful people outside, and it was easy for people to discover clues. Second, the purple thunder energy depends on daily accumulation. It takes about three days to accumulate enough to use "Crazy Thunder Shocks the Nine Heavens" once, and the current amount cannot exceed three times, because it will conflict with the Golden Bell Cover Qi and the Eight Nine Mysterious Art Qi in the dantian.
"Finally, it can be used. Huh, I can wait for the death mission with peace of mind." Using "Crazy Thunder Shocks the Nine Heavens" once also consumes a lot of energy for Meng Qi. Controlling such a fierce and domineering swordsmanship can be said to consume a lot of energy. He was a little out of breath when he talked to himself.
He put away "Whisper", wiped his face with a sweat towel, patted his black clothes, left the martial arts room, brewed tea and read books to regulate his body and mind.
Knock knock knock, there was a knock on the door.
Meng Qi sensed a familiar breath and realized that it was Kong Yu who was visiting at night. He felt a little strange and got up to open the door.
"Old Kong, is there something?" After getting familiar with each other, Meng Qi was so casual!
Kong Yu stepped into the yard, closed the door casually, looked around, and nodded gently: "There is news about the Daluo demon girl."
"She came back from the Nine Heavens Ruins?" Meng Qi frowned slightly.
Kong Yu thought for a while and said: "Maybe she has been back for a long time, but recently she was punished for punishing the Luojiao traitors and revealed her whereabouts. It is suspected that she is traveling south by boat. Many powerful people from the outside are tracking her."
"With Gu Xiaosang's temperament and skills, it seems more like she did it on purpose." Meng Qi said in the tone of an old acquaintance. I wonder if she killed the true body of the descendant of Xuannv...
"The sect also judged so. Maybe she has other purposes." Kong Yu agreed with Meng Qi's view. Gu Yaonv's actions are unpredictable.
Meng Qi pondered for a moment, and asked solemnly: "I wonder what her current strength is?"
"I don't know what level that Luojiao traitor is in. Although she only has nine orifices, she has a rare treasure. She once fought a half-step Luojiao pursuer to a draw and escaped. In the end, she was killed by Gu Xiaosang. Because of the loud noise, she was exposed." Kong Yu gave a brief description, "She should be able to open the gate of life and death at any time, but she forcibly suppressed it and waited for her spirit, spirit, physical body and martial arts realm to be perfect at this stage, so as to make a perfect breakthrough, just like the 'Invisible Sword' He Jiu."
"Invisible Sword" He Jiu, the first on the human list, has not changed for three years!
It seems that Gu Xiaosang has gained something in the Nine Heavens Ruins, but it should not be too much. After all, with her current strength, it is difficult to go deeper... And she seems to have no conflicts with the upper echelons of the Luo Sect. Could it be that she really shared the location of the Nine Heavens? This is not her style... Meng Qi's mind flashed one by one, and he said: "Even if the half-step outer scene can't kill the judgment, the Luo Sect still has scattered people and twelve divine messengers. Why does she, a saint, need to take risks?"
As for the upper echelons of the Luo Sect, the Dharma King is known to the world. He is the "World-crossing Dharma King" who has achieved the "Vacuum Dharma Body". The leader of the Luo Sect is the sixth on the Heavenly Ranking. Some divine messengers are also famous and even on the Earth Ranking. Therefore, people with a little knowledge know that the Luo Sect has twelve divine messengers, including several masters.
What other ranks are there in the Luo Sect below the divine messengers? Outsiders don't know, but Meng Qi has heard the term "scattered people" from Gu Xiaosang, and suspects that it is a strong outer scene below the divine messenger, so he blurts it out.
"Sanren?" Kong Yu nodded thoughtfully without asking any more questions. After all, the Mad Blade Su Meng had "cooperated" with Gu Xiaosang for a period of time. "I also think there is a trick. The Luo Sect has a big family and a big business. How could they possibly trouble the Saint for everything? In short, you'd better be careful."
Meng Qi certainly would not be careless with Gu Xiaosang. The demon girl's mind is unpredictable, cunning, ruthless, who dares to be careless with her?
After reminding Meng Qi, Kong Yu smiled: "Xiao Meng, the martial arts exam has been over for more than half a month. Have you considered whether to join the Six Gates?"
Considering the hidden danger that his vest would be easily suspected by the Su Nu Dao if it was exposed, and considering the need for intelligence and resources, Meng Qi was inclined to join the Six Gates and be a spy, but now the death mission is imminent, which is only a few days away. If he agrees, he will have to wait for the response of the Divine Capital, and then travel a long distance to the headquarters of the Divine Capital. There is no benefit for the time being, so there is no need to worry about it and disrupt his mood.
"I will give you an answer in ten days." Meng Qi replied.
Seeing that there was a confirmed date, Kong Yu left with satisfaction.
Five days later, when Meng Qi was refining the eighth acupoint related to the mouth, his head was slightly dizzy. Even with his eyes closed, he could feel that the front was dark and then bright.
He opened his eyes and saw Qi Zhengyan, whom he had just met yesterday. He had no expression on his face, and was always possessed by a zombie. He saw Jiang Zhiwei, whom he had not seen for a long time. She was bright and beautiful, full of heroic spirit. Standing there, she was like a famous sword unsheathed. He saw Zhang Yuanshan and Fu Zhenzhen. Both of them had improved their auras, and it was obvious that each of them had made breakthroughs. He saw Luo Shengyi, who stood like a mountain, and had protective aura around him. He also saw Ge Huai'en, who was dressed as a Qingjin scholar, holding copper coins and wooden sticks, and looked like a god.
He also saw Ruan Yushu, holding a guqin, wearing white clothes, still cold and elegant, and still unworldly, but why was she chewing with her mouth?
"What are you eating?" Meng Qi blurted out.
"Langya dried dragon fish." Ruan Yushu pursed his lips, as if he was still not satisfied, and said coldly, "It's my favorite snack."
Jiang Zhi smiled: "So you were pulled in during dinner."
Ruan Yushu nodded slightly, looked at the guqin, and whispered: "No, I thought that the death mission was imminent and I might not be able to eat it again in the future, so I indulged myself to eat a little more."
"Indulge? You were very restrained before..." Meng Qi used his taunting skills.
Ruan Yushu's expression did not change: "Of course, I won't get carried away and bear the nickname of Crazy Knife."
"Haha, everyone flatter..." Meng Qi laughed dryly twice, the Ruan family's intelligence network is not bad.
Jiang Zhiwei chuckled, understanding Meng Qi's obsession with the nickname: "Little monk, after your battle with Wang Zai, I'm afraid you will carry the name 'Kuang' for a long, long time."
Meng Qi wanted to die...
"But I didn't expect you to make such great progress. In just a few years, you have become a young hero in the top 20 of the human list from a little monk who has not yet accumulated energy." Jiang Zhiwei restrained her smile and sighed, "How far are you from the seventh orifice?"
She didn't ask about the rest of her strength. The 19th on the human list explained everything.
Zhang Yuanshan and Fu Zhenzhen were whispering beside them, as if they were seizing the time before the death mission to be intimate.
"There is only one related orifice left, and then you can try to open the mouth orifice." Meng Qi did not hide it, "Zhiwei, what about you?"
"I opened the eighth orifice in the first month of the year, and I can already master the subtleties of refining essence into qi by myself." Jiang Zhiwei thought of the battle half a year ago, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, looking happy and happy.
Meng Qi looked at Ruan Yushu, Luo Shengyi and others again: "What about you? Have you all made progress?"
"Six orifices, the Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds have been practiced." Ruan Yushu said concisely.
Luo Shengyi smiled and said: "Nine orifices are open, the true qi is released, and the Nine Mountains Strong Fist is initially formed."
As a casual cultivator, he can't help but be a little proud to have reached this level.
"Four orifices are perfect, and a lot of healing and detoxification pills, as well as more special poisons, have been refined." Fu Zhenzhen talked about his efforts.
"Seven orifices, the blood burning and soul burning method has been mastered, which can beat most of the nine orifices." Zhang Yuanshan said calmly.
Ge Huai'en smiled calmly, "I also opened four orifices, and entered the 'Wang's Book of Changes'."
Although Meng Qi knew his own strength, his companions were not clear, so Qi Zhengyan still spoke: "Six orifices, the first four levels of Hun Tian Bao Jian."
Just as Meng Qi was about to discuss with his companions what to exchange, the cold and indifferent voice of the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation sounded:
"This is a death mission, so the mission details will be announced in advance. After that, you have a quarter of an hour to prepare."
Meng Qi and others breathed a sigh of relief, so that they could exchange in a targeted manner.
The Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation said calmly:
"In order to seek the Buddha's Dharma, the Tang monk Xuanzang traveled west. Under the protection of the Great Sage Sun Wukong, the Marshal of the Heavenly Peng Zhu Wuneng, the General of the Curtain Sha Wujing, and the third son of the Dragon King Ao Lie, he killed demons and monsters along the way, overcame 81 difficulties, arrived at Lingshan, sought the true Dharma, and achieved the right result. This is the Journey to the West."
Meng Qi was stunned when he heard it, and was happy and surprised. He was happy that he finally encountered the familiar world of reincarnation, and was surprised that with his strength, if he wanted to get involved in the Journey to the West, he would not even be qualified as cannon fodder! Sun Dasheng is at least at the level of Dharmakaya, and he is not an ordinary Dharmakaya!
Eighty-nine Mysterious Skills?
"This mission is eight hundred years after the Journey to the West, and demons are disturbing the world."
Meng Qi's expression was slightly dull, and I didn't know the plot again...
