The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 187 The Battle of the Taoist Academy
Time flies, and seven years pass by in a hurry.

Seven years, even for the monks who are most insensitive to time, and thousands of years are just a snap of a finger, is enough to demonstrate the power of the Ganges of time, obliterating, hiding, and even hiding some things from people's minds. Obliterated.

For Zhang Jingyuan, the martial arts tournament seven years ago caused numerous disturbances and shocks. Although he did not appear in the martial arts tournament for one day, he deserved to be called the protagonist of that year's martial arts tournament.

It has gradually been forgotten from the minds of most Longxiang Taoist Academy disciples.

Even in the past five years, the new disciples of Longxiang Taoist Academy have not even heard of Zhang Jingyuan's name.

As the saying goes, talented people have emerged from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. A new generation replaces an old one. Zhang Jingyuan, a guy who has barely appeared in the public eye and only has a certain reputation, is naturally the easiest to be forgotten. of.

Even starting from the second year, some people have been questioning that Zhang Jingyuan is just a show-off guy. Even Zhao Shiwen and the others' bragging is just to build momentum for Zhang Jingyuan.

If Zhang Jingyuan is really as amazing as Zhao Shiwen and others say, why doesn't he come out to participate in the martial arts competition?
As for what Zhao Shiwen and the others said in defense, Zhang Jingyuan was as open-minded and sincere as ever. He didn't care about these frivolous things, and even looked down upon them.

We are all monks, who doesn’t know who?

Who is not thinking about advancing bravely, getting ahead, getting more resources, fighting for that slim chance of survival, being promoted to foundation building, or even becoming the Golden Elixir Nascent Soul? Why are you, Zhang Jingyuan, an exception?

Therefore, there is only one truth, and that is that Zhang Jingyuan has only his name and appearance, and his real abilities are definitely not as great as he boasts.

And no matter how hard Zhao Shiwen and others defended Zhang Jingyuan, they would often be stunned by the other party's words, "It's a mule or a horse that comes out to run around." They were left speechless and didn't know what to say.

Although Zhao Shiwen and others had also begged Zhang Jingyuan, hoping that Zhang Jingyuan would take action to prove himself.

But obviously, Zhang Jingyuan rejected it.

For a Taoist like him who has lived for half an era and has stood at the top of the pyramid of the entire cultivation world in his previous life, what is there to care about in the mere disputes, slanders, and slanders during the Qi Refining Period?
Why would he interrupt his cultivation plan because of other people's slander?

Will the giant change himself because of the humiliation of the ant?

Obviously not.

Seeing Zhang Jingyuan's attitude, after a long time, Zhao Shiwen and the others could only pretend they didn't hear such questions again.

Furthermore, he believed that one day, when Zhang Jingyuan was willing to take action, he would shine as brightly as the sun.

Even Zhao Shiwen, the biggest "Zhang Chui" in Longxiang Taoist Academy, stopped talking. Naturally, the disciples of Longxiang Taoist Academy gradually forgot that there was such a big figure as Zhang Jingyuan.

"It would be great if Senior Brother Zhang is willing to take action."

Looking at the Qi Refining Dzogchen monk of Longxiang Taoist School who was knocked down on the ring by a disciple of Shanhai Taoist School and had to surrender, Zhao Shiwen couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly to Yuan Zifan.

"Senior Brother Zhao, these past few days, I have heard you say these words, and my ears have been filled with calluses. It's not like you don't know, Senior Brother Zhang..."

When Yuan Zifan said this, he suddenly couldn't say anything anymore, because deep down in his heart, he was extremely eager for Zhang Jingyuan to take action.

There is no way, these people from Shanhai Daoyuan are really bullying.

As for why there are disciples from Shanhai Taoist Temple in Longxiang Taoist Temple, it is because they are really children without mothers, which is a long story.

As we all know, next year is Longxiang Taoist Temple, and Lingbao Lake opens once every fifty years. On the opening day, the people from Shanhai Taoist Temple came precisely for the quota to enter Lingbao Lake.

It stands to reason that this Lingbao Lake is composed of various magical treasures donated to Longxiang Taoist Temple when its disciples passed away. What does it have to do with Shanhai Taoist Temple?

Furthermore, Shanhai Taoist Temple, as another great temple in the Yunhai Galaxy, is as famous as Longxiang Taoist Temple. Naturally, there are also treasure tombs similar to Lingbao Lake, which are called Baoting Mountain.

Even other Taoist temples will have similar treasure tombs, but the size, number and grade of magic weapons will be different.

I don’t know whether it was thousands of years ago, but the deans of Longxiang Taoist Academy and Shanhai Taoist Academy made an agreement to hold a Taoist ceremony one year before the opening of Lingbao Lake of Longxiang Taoist Academy or Baoli Mountain of Shanhai Taoist Academy. Yuanshan Gate Challenge.

By then, all Taoist disciples in the entire Yunhai Galaxy will be able to participate in this mountain gate challenge.

However, the prize is the entry quota to Lingbao Lake or Baoting Mountain.

But the quota to enter Lingbao Lake is not so easy to get. Disciples from other Taoist schools must be able to defeat the disciples of Longxiang Taoist School and qualify to enter Lingbao Lake.

In Longxiang Taoist Academy, only the top fifty disciples in Qi Refining Great Perfection can be qualified to enter Lingbao Lake. This is obviously an extremely harsh, even difficult standard.

You know, if you can be among the top fifty in the Qi Refining Dzogchen of Longxiang Taoist Temple, if you were placed in some second- or third-rate Taoist temples, you would definitely be as good as the chief senior brother.

In other words, for most Taoist schools, their only hope is whether their chief senior brother can succeed in the challenge.

If even the Chief Senior Brother fails, forget it. The entire Taoist Academy will just be a spectator.

As for what to look at, it is naturally to see how many Qi Refining Dzogchens ranked among the top fifty in Longxiang Taoist Temple can be defeated by Shanhai Taoist Temple, and how many places they can get.

After all, the entire Yunhai Galaxy, that is, the disciples of Shanhai Taoist Academy, can rely on their own strength to steal the quota from Longxiang Taoist Academy.

Generally speaking, if the number of places obtained by Shanhai Daoyuan disciples is within twenty to twenty-five, it is basically considered a draw.

This means that in the past fifty years, the strength of the disciples of Longxiang Taoist Academy and Shanhai Taoist Academy has been very different, because the number of places that can be obtained from Longxiang Taoist Academy and Shanhai Taoist Academy is basically similar to this number.

After all, some home court factors still have to be taken into account.

But if the number of places obtained by Shanhai Dao Yuan exceeds twenty-five, or even reaches more than thirty, it means that Shan Hai Dao Yuan will be stronger than Longxiang Dao Yuan.

So in the next thirty years, before the opening of Shanhai Taoist Temple's Baoli Mountain, the disciples of Longxiang Taoist Temple will feel a little short when they meet the disciples of Shanhai Taoist Institute, and they will not even dare to speak so loudly. .

And if we even lose the battle for the chief senior brother on both sides, we will be finished and we will be completely unable to hold our head high.

But what is helpless is that this time, the chief senior brother of Longxiang Taoist Academy will most likely be inferior to the chief senior brother of Shanhai Taoist Academy.

If he loses to Shanhai Taoist Academy in the quota, the consequences will be unbearable pain for the disciples of Longxiang Taoist Academy.

There is no way. Du Lingfeng, the chief senior brother of Shanhai Dao Yuan, was already the strongest among the disciples of Shan Hai Dao Yuan forty years ago. He is only one step away from the foundation building stage. It is even said that this chief master of Shan Hai Dao Yuan Senior brother, there have been cases of fighting against foundation-building monks.

The chief senior brother of Longxiang Taoist Academy, Ren Peiguang, just took over five years ago, and his strength and reputation are naturally far inferior to Du Lingfeng.

To put it bluntly, when Du Lingfeng became the chief senior brother of Shanhai Taoist Academy, Ren Peiguang was still at the seventh level of Qi refining. How could this compare?
Seeing that Zhao Shiwen looked angry after hearing his complaints, Yuan Zifan quickly changed the subject and said: "If you ask me, I blame Du Lingfeng. If it weren't for his poor qualifications and being unable to be promoted to the foundation building stage for a long time, how could such an embarrassing thing happen. "

Longxiang Taoist Temple and Shanhai Taoist Temple, this kind of activity of challenging each other's mountain gates before opening the treasure tomb, has been going on for about four to five thousand years. More or less, this place has been taken away. Although it is embarrassing, but Not bad actually.

After all, over such a long period of time, the strength of the disciples will also change due to talent, opportunity, and even the length of time they have practiced in their respective Taoist temples. After all, there will be peaks and valleys.

No matter which Taoist temple, there is no guarantee that it can always stay ahead.

Therefore, no matter which Taoist temple there is, there are actually cases where the opponent loses a lot and loses thirty or forty places in one go. If you are thick-skinned, this is basically okay.

But as the chief senior brother of the defending side, he doesn't lose much. After all, in this situation where the right time, place, and people exist, as the strongest combat force of the defending side, the possibility of losing is inherently high. Not big.

"Indeed, after all, you must know that this Du Lingfeng, Senior Brother Du, has faced the existence of Bai Buhui, and now Bai Buhui is about to be promoted to Jindan, and he has not been promoted to Foundation Establishment, so this time Shanhai Even if the Taoist Academy wins, I’m afraid they won’t be embarrassed to publicize it.”

After hearing what Yuan Zifan said, Zhao Shiwen's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had finally found an excuse to make up for it.

But listening to the tone of his words, I also knew that at this time, he had already acquiesced that Longxiang Taoist Academy was going to lose.

"By the way, that's the truth. Twenty years ago, when Bai Buhui led a team to Shanhai Daoyuan, Du Lingfeng was the chief senior brother of Shanhai Daoyuan. However, he was shot down by Bai Buhui with two shots. It can be called The chief senior brother of Shanhai Daoyuan who has lost the fastest in the past years, even if he wins this time, he has nothing to be proud of."

"I still have in my hand the image of Bai Buhui defeating Du Lingfeng twenty years ago. On the day of the competition, I will release it and show it to everyone. I will kill the majesty of Shanhai Dao Yuan and let them be so arrogant again. ."

Zhao Shiwen's words were like poking a hornet's nest, and other Chief Meng Yin quickly followed suit.

Anyway, there is only one main theme, and that is to blame Du Lingfeng for being too weak and not being promoted to Foundation Establishment for a long time, so even if he wins, it will be a weak victory.

"If you win, you will win. If you guys in Longxiang Taoist Temple think this way, then we should close the door as soon as possible."

However, at this moment, a cold voice suddenly floated from not far away.
