Chapter 256
It's about two and a half months before the opening of the Jiufeng ruins. The seven factions of Jiufeng and the alliance of scattered forces have reached Tiangang peak and Tianqi peak, which appear at the entrance of the ruins. They have set up a defense line around them, and the qualification competition for the retest in Jiufeng City has officially come to an end.
After a period of more than two months of selection, finally determined the final six places to participate in the re examination challenge.
After the top ten came out, they drew lots again for five rounds. The five who won naturally entered the top six, and the last place was the five who lost. They competed through cross circulation.
According to the overall performance, the ranking of the top six was also officially announced this afternoon. Su ranxue ranked first, Yunxiao of shuiyunzong ranked second, and ouyangjing of Cangyanshan, who had always been well behaved in the competition but kept winning all the time, ranked third. Mo Li was in the fourth place, and the fifth and sixth place were wrapped up by two disciples of Tieshu and Tieke.
Among the six places previously selected by scattered forces, the first and second place were students from the same medium-sized force in Jiufeng City, LAN Wufeng and Yang Luoping. The third is the only woman in the top six, Liu Caimei, a disciple from a force in Zhongzhou. Four to six are the three people who need to accept the re examination challenge, all from the strength of Jiufeng City, namely Qiuming, Luoyang and Mengchong.
After the qualification trials, Su ranxue took the lead in choosing the challenge object according to the ranking. Maybe in order to avoid trouble, Su ranxue chooses Qiuming, who is in the fourth place. That is to say, they only need to fight each other, and the winner will finally win the qualification to enter the ruins.
Yunxiao, who ranked second, chose Luo Yang, who ranked fifth before the challenge, while Ouyang Jing, who ranked third, chose Meng Chong, who ranked sixth.
Mo Li doesn't want to meet him until he finds out the bottom of Yunxiao, so he also chooses Meng Chong, the sixth. Among the two disciples of the tie family, tie Shu chooses to fight with Yunxiao, while Tie Ke can only meet Mo Li and Ou Yangjing.
The final result of the battle is that Qiuming vs. Su ranxue. Luo Yang, tie Shu and Yun Xiao are fighting for a place. Meng Chong, Ou Yangjing, Tie Ke and Mo Li compete for a place.
Seven days later, the re examination challenge officially started. It was held once a day. After a six-day duel, all 20 candidates who entered the site could be determined.
The fierce duel in Jiufeng city once every 20 years is coming to an end. Other people are all preparing for the coming battle, but Mo Li is called aside by dead wood at this time.
In the courtyard of wanmuguan elder in wanbaoge, two old people and one young people are sitting around the stone table. There are few dead trees. They don't have a pot of tea to drink and talk about, but they keep a serious face before they speak.
Beside the dead wood, Simon is also staring at Mo Li with a dignified face. The appearance of the two people sitting in danger makes Mo Li realize that the coming dialogue must not be simple.
"Li'er, the relic will be opened soon. You and xue'er must not make any mistakes in the final re examination challenge. This time, whether you can help zongmen find ivy is the second. There are more important tasks for you to complete!"
Sure enough!
Hearing the words of dead wood, Mo Li is more sure of the previous guess. It's more important than finding Ivy for WAN Muguan. You don't have to think about it.
"Master, please say it, disciple, remember it!"
At this time, Mo Li completely curbed the occasional cynicism. He knew that if the old man had to explain next, it would be the most arduous task for him to enter the ruins this time.
Looking at Mo Li's expression, the dead wood and Ximen burst into a sigh of relief. The young people in front of them may be arrogant sometimes, but they can still bear the heavy responsibilities.
"I'll tell you a story first, a story about Tianyuan in ancient times!"
Dead wood did not rush to tell Mo Li what the specific task was, but stroked the beard of his chin and began to tell a long story.
"In ancient times, the pattern of Tianyuan was not what it is now. At that time, there was no north land, no Zhongzhou, no Xichuan, no East Lake, and no Nanyuan. At that time, the Tianyuan continent was one. Under the prevalence of cultivation, super strong people could be seen everywhere!
It's just like the inevitable development. Prosperity will decline. A big scuffle broke out in the ancient Tianyuan, where the strong are like clouds. Countless super strong people fought constantly, and the war of destroying heaven and earth swept the whole continent in a short time. No one knows the specific reason why a scuffle broke out. It was not until the battle of the people finally led to the collapse of the whole continent that the powers who were addicted to fighting came to their senses! "
As soon as the old man opened his mouth, Mo Li was completely shocked!
The scuffle that swept across the whole continent, the fight that almost made the world collapse, what kind of supernatural power would it take to do it!
Mo Li kept swallowing. His voice was shaking. He looked at the old man and asked, "then... What happened later..."
"Later?" The withered wood sighed and said to youYou: "later, the ancient powers realized that continuing the scuffle would make the world disappear, so they decided to make a truce. But it's easier to destroy than to rebuild. Where is the world on the verge of collapse so easy to rebuild? In order to make up for the trauma after the war, countless powerful people disappeared. I don't know how many years of hard work our ancestors have worked together to build a magic weapon, which can be used as the pillar of the world, so that Tianyuan can continue. "
"Magic weapon?" Mo Li caught something in an instant, and his original mood was even more excited: "is that magic weapon in the ruins of Jiufeng?"
"Yes and no!"
"Yes and no?"
The ambiguous words of dead wood make Mo Li confused.
"Listen to me first!" Kuki motioned to Mo Li to listen patiently, and then went on: "the magic soldiers made by our ancestors became the pillar of Tianyuan, and the mainland began to rebuild after the war. Thousands of years have passed, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the mainland has finally stabilized. However, just at this time, a gorgeous demon was born out of thin air! It took him less than 500 years to surpass the supreme realm. Finally, he took away the magic weapon, jiuxiao magic sword, which supported the mainland with his cultivation against heaven. After successful refining, he began his journey of fighting for hegemony, which was called jiuxiao magic God at that time
Jiuxiao demon!
Just hearing the name, Mo Li can imagine the domineering appearance of that man at that time! In less than 500 years, he has broken through the supremacy and refined the magic weapon to support the mainland. Besides curiosity, Mo Li has more deep admiration for the evil mentioned in Ku Mu's mouth!
"Strength and ambition are often in direct proportion. Jiuxiao demon God got the help of the sword and gradually determined his ruling power over the mainland in the killing. But later, his personality became more and more violent, and eventually led to the joint crusade of the hidden strong on the mainland!"
Dead wood said here again and again, it seems that he also imagined in his heart how thrilling the battle between the strong of the whole continent and Jiuyou demon God was.
Mo Li was a little more puzzled at this time. Looking at the withered wood, he hesitated and asked, "master, according to what you said, jiuxiao magic sword is the pillar of Tianyuan continent. How did the mainland survive when it was taken away by the young man?"
Withered wood is stunned, white Mo Li one eye, just want to talk, one side silent for a long time Ximen old man light cough, preemptive opening way: "at the beginning, after the mainland experienced the scuffle, it is indeed on the verge of collapse, but after countless years of stability, even without the jiuxiao magic sword can continue to exist, so you understand?"
"I see!"
Mo Li scratched his head awkwardly.
Looking at Mo Li's appearance, the withered wood burst into a smile. In fact, when young people like Mo Li heard this story, he was surprised that they could keep calm now.
Rearrange the language, and then tell the story of the past of ancient times.
"At that time, there were countless wars between the hermit and the jiuxiao demon God. With the concerted efforts of all the people, they finally defeated the demon God. But in the final battle, the jiuxiao sword in the hands of the demon God was split in the duel between the two sides. At that time, the divine sword had already existed in consciousness. After the split, it turned into nine divine swords and scattered all over the world. The noumenon was still called jiuxiao, and it was not born after that. The rest of the eight were found by chance, four positive and four evil, and they have been found up to now.
The eight magic swords are full of vital energy, which are called Jinghong, JiangMo, zhantian and Zhuxie. The other four with incomparable evil ideas are: red phosphorus, blood, soul burial and world destruction. "
"I see!" Hearing this, Mo Li finally realized something, and opened his mouth to the dead wood to confirm: "is there any of the eight swords left in the ruins of Jiufeng?"
"That's right!" Kuki nodded admiringly and explained: "many years ago, a super strong man appeared in the northern mainland. He found Jinghong in the eight swords and became famous. However, after his death, his descendants entered the ruins of Jiufeng with a magic sword, and then did not come out again. Jinghong has been left behind in the ruins ever since! "
"So it is... Master wants us to go in and find the sword?"
"Yes Dead wood nodded and said a sentence that made Mo Li more and more surprised: "only when you find the magic sword can you break the ban on the spiritual vein of our northern continent and make the northern continent strong again!"
What? Break the ban?
Mo Li hasn't completely recovered from the legend of jiuxiao, so he is brought into a new doubt by the words of dead wood.
"I'll explain it to you." Looking at Mo Li's twitching mouth, Ximen cleared his throat and said, "although our northern mainland was not as good as Zhongzhou and Nanyuan before, our cultivation environment is more than a hundred times better than today. Thousands of years ago, the aura of the northern continent became extremely thin overnight. At that time, the ancestors of the seven sects had just established a faction. The seven sects, who had been fighting openly and secretly, put aside their gratitude and resentment for the time being and began to look for the reasons for the drastic changes in the northern continent. Finally, they found that it was because the spiritual roots of the northern continent had been banned!
The prohibition on the spirit pulse is very strong. The forefathers speculated that only the four swords of the eight swords, namely, Jinghong, JiangMo, zhantian and Zhuxie, can be broken! "
The basic spirit pulse has been forbidden! After listening to Simon's words, Mo Li faintly felt that he was getting closer to a plot that shocked the mainland.
After a period of more than two months of selection, finally determined the final six places to participate in the re examination challenge.
After the top ten came out, they drew lots again for five rounds. The five who won naturally entered the top six, and the last place was the five who lost. They competed through cross circulation.

The final result of the battle is that Qiuming vs. Su ranxue. Luo Yang, tie Shu and Yun Xiao are fighting for a place. Meng Chong, Ou Yangjing, Tie Ke and Mo Li compete for a place.
