Chapter 438 A Visitor From Yin Valley

Let alone the people from the Soul Palace who came to trouble Xiao Ling, even if those people from the Soul Palace did not come to find him, once Xiao Ling met them, he would naturally not show mercy.

After all, the souls of those guys are rare "nutrients" for the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. It is a good thing to add a few more high-quality soul bodies to the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. Why not do it?

When Xun'er heard the word "Soul Palace", the original tranquility on her pretty face was slightly restrained, and she frowned inadvertently, with a trace of disgust in her eyes.

The protector sent by the Ancient Clan to Xun'er when she went out this time had clearly told her that the undercurrent had already surged in Shengdan City at this moment, and the running dogs of the Soul Clan were lurking in it, obviously brewing some ulterior motives.

However, Xun'er was very sure in her heart. She firmly believed that with her brother Xiao Ling's current strength, it would be easy to deal with those villains of the Soul Palace.

When she thought of this, her slightly wrinkled eyebrows gradually relaxed, and her slightly worried look also eased a lot. When she looked at Xiao Ling, her eyes were full of tenderness and dependence.

"Dong!"

A melodious bell sounded, like an ancient call, abruptly breaking the tranquility of Xiao Ling and others' conversation.

The bell sounded clear and far-reaching, rippling between heaven and earth like ripples, and even the originally deafening noise was slowly suppressed by it and gradually quieted down.

As the bell sounded, the noise around gradually faded, and the world seemed to have been mute.

Countless eyes turned to the east side of the square, where a stone platform as majestic as an ancient tower stood proudly.

On the stone platform, the high-level Danta will appear, and everyone's eyes are focused there, looking forward to the opening of a feast.

Just when the afterglow of the bell sound had not completely dissipated, a burst of rapid wind breaking sounded abruptly, as if breaking the tranquility of the void.

Then, the space on the stone platform gently fluctuated, as if ripples appeared on the water surface, and more than a dozen figures slowly appeared, as if they were coming from another world.

Xiao Ling's eyes slowly swept over the sudden queue of figures, and finally, his sight was fixed on the three figures in the center.

These three people were not others, but the famous three giants of Danta.

The one in the center, with a head full of silver hair like snow, and a bit of immortal charm in the elegant flow, was none other than Xuan Kongzi, who had contact with Xiao Ling not long ago.

Standing on his left was an old man with a dark complexion, a serious face, and a serious expression. The light in his eyes was like lightning, so sharp that it seemed to be able to pierce people's souls, making people dare not look directly at it.

On the right was a beautiful woman in a gorgeous cheongsam. Her aura was similar to Xuan Kongzi, both of them were so ethereal and elusive.

Her face seemed to be forgotten by time, and she still maintained the appearance of a woman in her thirties, with a charm that made people look at her a few more times.

Xiao Ling was not unfamiliar with the identities of these two people. They were the other two of the three giants of Danta, Tian Leizi and Yao Chen's old lover, Xuan Yi.

The appearance of these three people seemed to take away the hustle and bustle of this world, and the surroundings fell into an almost pious silence.

In this endless sea of ​​people, countless eyes were like iron filings attracted by a magnet, focusing on these three figures.

The three giants of Danta, this name is already well-known in Zhongzhou, and even in the Douqi Continent, it is also a prestigious existence.

They usually only live in people's legends, and now they suddenly appear, which makes countless viewers feel an incredible shock...

"Hehe," the white-haired Xuan Kongzi walked forward steadily, his voice was gentle and penetrating, and it rang clearly in the ears of everyone present,

"I am Xuan Kongzi, on behalf of Danta, and welcome all the alchemists who come from afar. In the days to come, this will become a stage for you to show your talents..."

The whole audience was silent, even those who were usually unruly and ferocious had to restrain their arrogance at this moment, and dared not offend in the slightest.

Because the three people on the stone platform, their status and strength almost touched the peak of this continent...

"You all came from afar to gather together for the Alchemy Conference," Xuan Kongzi's voice was gentle and powerful, penetrating the silence, "I will not elaborate on it. Haha, this Alchemy Conference will still follow the previous tradition and be divided into three stages. The first stage is..."

Xiao Ling quietly listened to Xuan Kongzi's introduction to the selection rules of the Alchemy Conference, and confirmed in his heart that this information was roughly the same as what Ye Zhong mentioned.

Obviously, such rules have long become the standard model passed down by generations of Alchemy Conferences.

"As long as you can pass these three selections and stick to the end, you will be the champion of this Alchemy Conference..."

After Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, he looked at the crowd that was stirred by the word "champion", and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"The champion of this Alchemy Conference will not only be honored as a candidate for the Danta Giant, but also receive a scroll of soul cultivation secrets from ancient times. With this secret, it will no longer be an unattainable expectation to be promoted to an eighth-grade or even ninth-grade alchemist in the future..."

Wow——

As Xuan Kongzi's words fell, a deafening noise suddenly broke out in the dense crowd.

The eyes of countless alchemists turned red at that moment, burning with a desire for power.

The eighth and ninth grades, these almost legendary alchemist levels, were originally unattainable natural barriers for them.

However, if one can obtain the secret method of soul cultivation from ancient times, this seemingly insurmountable gap will seem to be greatly shortened, and it is even possible to reach the realm of dreams.

This temptation will have a fatal attraction for all alchemists, enough to make every alchemist present's blood boil with excitement.

However, when everyone was excited, Xiao Ling couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard Xuan Kongzi's words. He still remembered very clearly in his heart that the "Taiyi Soul Art" that he had obtained by chance many years ago was the treasure that was originally planned as the winner's reward in this Dan Competition.

It is precisely because of the unique cultivation effect of "Taiyi Soul Jue" on soul power, and as Xiao Ling, as a time traveler, that his soul talent is far superior to that of normal practitioners in the Dou Qi Continent, all of this has contributed to Xiao Ling's rapid improvement in soul power. This laid a solid foundation that enabled him to achieve the great spiritual perfection he has today.

Xiao Ling couldn't help but secretly think about it. Now that the "Tai Yi Soul Jue" fell into his hands, he wondered whether the championship reward of this Dan meeting would be adjusted compared to the original work. But then he thought about it and realized that this possibility was unlikely.

After all, precious techniques that can cultivate the soul are extremely rare and are extremely valuable to alchemists. As the holy land for refining medicine on the mainland, the Danta Tower definitely attaches more importance to such soul cultivation techniques, and is likely to have a similar backup of secret techniques in case of emergencies.

However, such thoughts only flashed across Xiao Ling's mind, and he did not dwell too much on this matter. After all, whatever the reward, the real test is yet to come.

Xiao Ling's eyes became firmer. He knew that he only had to go all out to win the Dan Club championship, and then all the answers would be revealed...

On the high stone platform, Xuan Kongzi glanced at the eyes that turned blood red with desire, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He looked up at the color of the sky, and then gently waved his broad sleeves, and an invisible wave spread, hitting the void, and once again triggered a deep and melodious sound of bells.

"The time has come. All contestants of level five or above, please enter the first level...the illusion of the soul!" Xuan Kongzi finished his words and pointed his finger suddenly at the center of the vast square.

There, the dark gray space is rapidly distorting and deforming, as if it has formed one strange dimension after another, revealing endless mysteries and mysteries...

"boom!"

As soon as Xuan Kongzi finished speaking, a strong wave suddenly erupted in the invisible crowd.

One after another, the figures shot out like sharp arrows. Their speed was as fast as swarms of locusts, covering the sky and crossing the sky, and they disappeared into the distorted space one after another.

The scene is so spectacular that one can’t help but be stunned...

Xiao Ling watched the figures pouring into the twisted space like a torrential rain. A faint smile appeared on his face, and a bright light flashed in his eyes, as if he was excited about the upcoming challenge, or perhaps I am full of expectations for this event.

Xun'er kept watching Xiao Ling and sensitively caught the changes in his expression. She gently held Xiao Ling's palm and used her fingers to exert slight pressure, conveying silent support.

Then, she gently stretched out her other hand, carefully pushed the few strands of hair scattered on Xiao Ling's forehead behind her ears, and said in a soft but firm voice: "Brother Xiao Ling, go ahead. No matter what the outcome, Xun I will be here waiting for you to come back..."

"Xiao Ling, come on! We must win the championship of this alchemy competition." Zi Yan, Medusa and others on the side also cast encouraging glances at Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling looked around and saw the concerned faces of several people wherever he looked.

A confident smile broke out on his face, and his voice was firm and powerful: "Don't worry, I am determined to win the championship of Danhui this time. Just be prepared and wait to see how I perform at this grand event that attracts the attention of the whole continent. Show your style..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ling gently let go of the fingers tightly intertwined with Xun'er's, and his body stretched slightly, instantly turning into a golden stream of light.

Under the gaze of many eyes around him, he did not hesitate at all and swept straight into the deep, dark and twisted space, disappearing from everyone's sight, leaving only an unforgettable light and shadow...

…

At the same time, on the top of a high tower in Shengdan City, a ripple like water waves appeared in the void. As the ripples spread, three female figures gradually emerged from the twisted space.

These three women all have otherworldly temperaments, as if they were fairies from the upper world descending into the mortal world.

The woman standing on the left is wearing a light blue gauze, with a graceful figure and skin as good as snow. Her eyes are dynamic and deep, as if the twinkling stars in the night sky have gathered in her pupils.

The woman on the right covered her face with a layer of gauze, revealing only a pair of bright eyes. Her whole body exuded a faint cold air, like a proud snowy plum blossom, lonely and pure.

The woman in the middle is wearing a long white dress, her long hair falls like a waterfall, her eyes are as clear as autumn water, and her face is breathtakingly beautiful.

Her whole body exudes an affinity that breathes the same breath and fate as the heaven and earth, as if she is the most harmonious existence in the world.

They stood on the top of the tower, with the breeze blowing and their clothes fluttering. They were so beautiful that they were intoxicating.

They stood quietly on the top of the tower, with the breeze blowing gently, causing their clothes to flutter, just like the clouds in the sky swaying gently. It was as beautiful as a painting, and it was enchanting.

However, such a peerless beauty seems like a corner forgotten by time. No pair of mortal eyes can capture the stunning moment.

"Sir, it seems we arrived a little late."

As soon as Suli stood firm on the top of the tower, she cast her eyes towards the bustling square below, raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, and said softly,

"The figure that just entered the illusion space, as expected, should be Master Xiao Ling."

Ning Yuxi on the side nodded slightly, agreeing with Su Li's guess. Although the three of them had just arrived here, the fluctuations caused by Xiao Ling were quite significant. Even in this noisy occasion, it was difficult to conceal his unique aura, so they were naturally able to clearly sense Xiao Ling's presence.

"He went in as soon as he went in. To me, it was just a trip with you two little girls. He didn't have much to do with that boy. If we talk about reminiscing about old times, it was between you, master and disciple, and him. "My feelings." Chu Wanqing responded casually with a calm expression and a hint of indifference in her tone.

However, there was a faint unnatural look in these words, as if she had some hidden emotions in her heart that she didn't want others to know, and she was just pretending to be cold.

After hearing Chu Wanqing's words, Suli and Ning Yuxi couldn't help but look at each other, with a subtle look flashing on each other's faces.

After getting along with the Supreme Elder during this period of time, they realized to some extent that there seemed to be some unknown connection between Chu Wanqing and Master Xiao Ling.

However, whenever the deeds of Master Xiao Ling are mentioned, the Supreme Elder always seems reluctant to talk more, with an indescribable alienation in his tone. This couldn't help but give rise to many doubts in their hearts, but they were unable to explore the truth.

"Let's go, let's go to Shengdan City and find a suitable pavilion to watch the game. I don't want to stand here blindly." Chu Wanqing didn't wait for Su Li and Ning Yuxi to respond, and then her figure flickered, and the air was filled with There was a slight fluctuation, and her figure disappeared in this space.

Seeing this, Su Li and Ning Yuxi immediately put away their suspicions, and their bodies quickly turned into two bright rainbows. Following closely behind, they quickly caught up with Chu Wanqing's figure and flew towards the northern region of Shengdan City. Sweep away.

…

Swish, swish, swish!

Looking at the crowd of people rushing into the fantasy level like locusts passing through, Xuan Kongzi on the high platform nodded slightly, put his hands in his sleeves, and said lightly,

"This year's Alchemy Conference is quite interesting. I didn't expect that even some old faces who have been silent for many years will show up..."

"Three Thousand Flames, its power far exceeds that of ordinary strange fires. It is an irresistible temptation for these old men who are involved in the world of medicine refining. Naturally, they will not miss this feast and come to have a look. after all."

Tianleizi, who was standing next to Xuan Kongzi, raised his eyelids slightly. His eyes were like lightning piercing the night sky, quickly passing over the figures pouring into the fantasy level, and he said with a hint of inexplicability in his tone.

"The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. The strength of today's younger generation cannot be underestimated. They are not inferior to these older generations. Even if those old guys try their best, I am afraid they will not be able to escape the fate of complete defeat in the end..."

On the side, Xuan Yi, who was wearing a gorgeous cheongsam, smiled softly and continued to add in a playful tone.

Xuan Kongzi chuckled and nodded to express his agreement with Tianleizi and Xuanyi's views. He gently stroked his beard and said slowly,

"Indeed, there are many amazing and talented people among the younger generation today. But the one that interests me the most is Xiao Ling. I really want to know how far he can go in this alchemy meeting. Whether we can stand out and finally win the championship..."

"Xiao Ling? Xuan Kongzi, if I remember correctly, your beloved disciple Cao Ying has touched the threshold of the spiritual realm and has the ability to refine eighth-grade elixirs, right?"

Tianleizi raised his eyebrows, with a look of surprise on his face, "You have always had high hopes and confidence in that girl, why did you suddenly turn your attention to other people?"

Xuan Yi also turned his head, with a trace of confusion in his eyes. She had met Xiao Ling several times before, so she naturally recognized Xiao Ling's outstanding talent.

However, Xuan Kongzi's remarks just now seemed to deviate from his usual style, which was quite surprising. Such an attitude is not in line with his usual behavior...

Facing the doubtful eyes of his two friends, Xuan Kongzi smiled softly, and a deep light flashed in his eyes.

"You two have never met each other since you had a chance encounter with that boy a few years ago. Therefore, you probably don't know yet. In the assessment of the five major families not long ago, even Ying'er and Dan Chen from the Dan family Even if we work together, we can't defeat Xiao Ling."

There was a rare hint of approval in Xuan Kongzi's tone, and his voice was smooth and low as he continued.

"Moreover, I also had some contact with that little guy later, and found that he was not as simple as he appeared on the surface. It was difficult for even me to completely see through."

"I have a hunch that Xiao Ling will definitely bring us unexpected surprises at this alchemy meeting."

Having said this, he gently stroked his beard, with an expectant smile on his face, as if he had foreseen the scene where Xiao Ling would shine at the alchemy meeting.

After hearing Xuan Kongzi's words, Tianleizi and Xuanyi couldn't help but exchange a look.

The information about Xiao Ling revealed by Xuan Kongzi was indeed unprecedented information for them.

At this moment, the curiosity in the hearts of the two people has been completely ignited by Xuan Kongzi's words. They are full of expectations for Xiao Ling's next performance, and are curious about what kind of amazing talent and strength this young man will show in this alchemy conference...
