Chapter 71 Means
The opponent Chen Yuan drew in the third round was a young monk wearing a blue robe, with narrow eyes and a slightly feminine temperament.
This person was none other than Huang Yunshang, the grandson of the patriarch of the Huang family in Cizhou, as recorded in the jade slip given to him by Mo Jingchun!
He, Xue Lin, Song Qingru, and several other powerful cultivators who came from immortal cultivation families all had lifelike images in the jade slips.
Chen Yuan was lucky in the first two rounds and did not encounter these people, but in the third round, he was unable to avoid them and met Huang Yunshang who was carrying a talisman.
Huang Yunshang frowned as he watched Chen Yuan's expression change:
"you know me?"
Chen Yuan did not answer, but slowly put his right hand on the storage bag.
Huang Yunshang wanted to ask again, but the foundation-building cultivator in the air said in a deep voice:
"The competition begins!"
Chen Yuan immediately took out the Blood Sword, made a hand gesture, and the Blood Sword made a cheerful sword sound, shot out, and slashed towards Huang Yunshang!
Huang Yunshang was not in a hurry. He touched his storage bag and a bronze mirror appeared in front of him.
He made a hand gesture and a beam of white light came out of the bronze mirror, shooting towards the blood sword and fixing it in mid-air.
Chen Yuan had expected this. The jade slip mentioned that Huang Yunshang had a magic mirror in his hand, which was a top-grade magic weapon that could freeze the opponent's magic weapon and was extremely mysterious.
After the blood sword flew out, he took out ten wind blade talismans and threw them out at once.
The talisman ignited without wind and turned into thirty wind blades, which took advantage of the opportunity when the bronze mirror froze the blood sword to slash towards Huang Yunshang.
The reason why Chen Yuan hoarded a large number of wind blade talismans instead of using top-grade magic talismans was because mid-grade magic talismans could be activated instantly, forming an overwhelming offensive.
When Huang Yunshang saw Chen Yuan activate ten talismans at once, even though he was knowledgeable, he was still frightened.
A mid-grade magical weapon was gone just like that. Even he didn't dare to do that.
The spell in his hand changed, and a second beam of white light emanated from the bronze mirror, destroying the ten wind blades.
At the same time, he took out a talisman, threw it in front of him, and muttered something.
After two breaths, the talisman burned out and turned into a wall of earth, blocking Huang Yunshang.
This earth wall is similar to the spell cast by the foundation-building monk on the first day of the Ascension Conference, but its hardness is incomparable.
Chi Chi!
The wind blades came slashing, and the earth wall lasted for three breaths before being shattered, but eight wind blades also collapsed.
There were still twelve wind blades left. Huang Yunshang stroked his storage bag, took out a silver flying sword, and shot it towards the wind blades!
Dangdang Dangdang!
The silver flying sword was extremely hard and it cut through nine wind blades in a row before being bounced away by the recoil force.
The last three wind blades were already at the end of their strength. Huang Yunshang took out a golden armor talisman, slapped it on his body, and it turned into a golden armor, which dissipated along with the three wind blades.
Huang Yunshang blocked Chen Yuan's powerful attack, and his heart eased a little. He sneered:
"But that's it..."
Before he finished speaking, a strange blood light flashed on the edge of the Blood Sword, and it broke free from the white light column and slashed down again!
At the same time, Chen Yuan took out a silver talisman with intricate patterns, and he made hand gestures and muttered something.
Just now he activated ten wind blade talismans at once, and for a moment he was running out of mana. He took a few breaths before launching the second wave of attack.
Huang Yunshang looked at the slowly burning talisman and felt a chill in his heart, knowing that this talisman was extraordinary.
He hurriedly activated the bronze mirror, and shot out another beam of white light to block the bloody sword.
laugh!
The white light came into contact with the blood light on the edge of the Blood Sword, and the blood light flashed and extinguished.
But the white light only dimmed a little, and the blood-red sword was still fixed in mid-air.
The blood light and the white light were similar in power, but the blood light first broke through one ray of white light and then collided with the second ray of white light, so it was at a disadvantage.
After Huang Yunshang blocked the attack, the spell in his hand changed, and he activated the silver flying sword to slash towards Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan kept chanting incantations, touched his storage bag, took out the Qing Ning Shield, and blocked in front of him.
clang!
The light shield transformed by the Qingning Shield shattered like glass, and a deep crack appeared on the main body.
But the silver flying sword was also hit by a huge recoil force and flew back.
Chen Yuan's face turned pale, but he continued to chant the curse.
According to the records in the jade slip, this silver flying sword is only a top-grade magic weapon, so why is it so sharp?
Huang Yunshang smiled triumphantly and once again urged the silver flying sword to slash towards Chen Yuan.
At this time, the talisman in Chen Yuan's hand had burned to only 10%. He looked at the silver flying sword that was coming towards him, and with a burst of magic power, the Qing Ning Shield transformed into a light shield and went straight up to meet it!
clang!
The light shield shattered into pieces, and a deep crack appeared on the Qing Ning Shield, almost splitting it in two.
puff!
The magic weapon was damaged and Chen Yuan was also implicated. He spit out blood and turned pale.
But after this delay, the talisman finally burned out.
A dark cloud slowly gathered above Huang Yunshang's head, with a few silver-white flashes of lightning flashing from time to time and making crackling sounds.
Huang Yunshang's pupils shrank:
"Thunder Talisman!"
The spell in his hand changed, and the silver flying sword and bronze mirror flew back and blocked above his head.
When the foundation-building cultivator in the air saw this dark cloud, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The Falling Thunder Talisman is a low-grade spiritual talisman, comparable to the attack of an ordinary foundation-building cultivator. If he were to take it, he would have to put in some effort.
Chen Yuan smiled coldly, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then pointed at Huang Yunshang:
"fall!"
Boom!
In the dark clouds, a silver lightning flashed from the sky and struck Huang Yunshang. Huang Yunshang frantically urged his magic power, and the silver flying sword went upstream, turning into a silver light and slashing at the lightning.
Two silver lights intersected, and the silver flying sword flew back, with the tip of the sword piercing three inches into the arena, and the sword body shook.
The lightning was blocked for a moment, and its falling speed slowed down a bit.
Huang Yunshang seized the opportunity, changed the spell in his hand, and the bronze mirror shone brightly. A thick white light beam as solid as a substance shot out from the mirror surface, heading towards the lightning.
Chi Chi!
The silver electric light and the white light column collided head-on and corroded each other.
In the end, the electric light was more powerful and suppressed the white light, falling on the bronze mirror above Huang Yunshang's head.
Crack!
The bronze mirror was surrounded by silvery-white electric light and was shaking constantly. The mirror surface was charred black and a deep crack appeared.
puff!
Huang Yunshang's body shook and he spat out a large mouthful of blood, staining his chest red.
"Very good, you forced me to do this!"
He touched the storage bag, and a gray talisman appeared in his hand, and he injected magic power into it.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan hurriedly activated his magic power, and a flash of blood appeared on the edge of the blood sword, and it slashed towards Huang Yunshang.
Huang Yunshang sneered, made a gesture with his hands, and the bronze mirror shot out an illusory white beam of light, which froze the blood-red sword.
"Even if Huang's magic mirror is damaged, it is still more than enough to immobilize a top-grade magic weapon. Once Huang activates the magic weapon, it will be your death!"
Chen Yuan remained calm, stroked his storage bag, took out the Qingyun Sword, and slashed at Huang Yunshang.
Huang Yunshang laughed when he saw Chen Yuan actually took out a mid-grade magic weapon:
"Is this your last resort?"
The spell in his hand changed again, and the bronze mirror emitted a second white light, freezing the Qingyun Sword.
At the same time, he kept injecting magic power into the gray talisman.
Wisps of gray light flew out from the talisman and condensed into the shadow of a giant axe, exuding a thrilling power.
Chen Yuan smiled coldly:
"I wonder if Brother Huang can still release the third mirror light?"
He stroked his storage bag, and a purple flying needle about an inch long appeared in his hand, which he threw forward.
Whoosh!
The flying needle turned into a stream of purple light and shot out!
Huang Yunshang's face changed drastically:
"A top-grade magical weapon! Impossible..."
He hurriedly deactivated the talisman and urged the silver flying sword to meet the flying needle.
But the flying needle was extremely fast and in an instant it flew in front of Huang Yunshang and pressed against his neck.
Huang Yunshang looked down at the flying needle, his expression extremely grim:
"Using three magical instruments at the same time, one of which is a top-grade instrument, fellow Taoist has a strong spiritual sense."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, recalled the bronze mirror and the silver flying sword, put them into his storage bag, and stood with his hands behind his back.
Chen Yuan then retracted the Qingyun Sword and the Blood Sword and said calmly:
"It was just a fluke."
Huang Yunshang smiled without commenting:
"Since you know Huang, you should know his background, right?"
Chen Yuan frowned and said:
"What do you mean, Brother Huang? The competition hasn't ended yet, so you'd better admit defeat first."
He mobilized his magic power and pushed the purple flying needle forward, and a drop of blood oozed from Huang Yunshang's neck.
Huang Yunshang felt the sharp murderous aura on his neck, but he didn't care. He said slowly:
"Huang's grandfather was the patriarch of the Huang family in Cizhou, a Jindan cultivator. The Huang family has been affiliated with Lingyun Sect for more than 700 years, and dozens of disciples have joined Lingyun Sect. Currently, there are two foundation-building cultivators who hold important positions in the sect..."
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes:
"Fellow Daoist Huang, are you threatening me?"
Huang Yunsang smiled:
"Huang doesn't dare, but I want to make a deal with you. If you are willing to give up this quota, Huang is willing to give you a large amount of spirit stones, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied."
Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and he looked up at the foundation-building cultivator:
"senior……"
The foundation-building monk said calmly:
"The winner has not yet been decided, and the competition has not yet ended. I will not interfere."
The smile on Huang Yunshang's face became even more intense:
"Fellow Daoist, you can think carefully about whether to choose a large amount of spirit stones and elixirs, or to insist on competing with Huang for this entrance quota. Although Huang's qualifications are not good, he is quite favored by his grandfather. If Huang loses his entrance qualification because of you, even if you enter Lingyun Sect, your life will not be easy."
Chen Yuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly laughed:
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Huang is determined to get this entry quota. If I disagree, will I be making an enemy of the Huang family?"
Huang Yunshang saw Chen Yuan's expression and was certain in his heart. He smiled and said:
"That's right. As long as you are willing to admit defeat, no matter if it's spirit stones or elixirs or top-grade magic tools, just ask for it. I can even speak in front of my grandfather and let you marry into the Huang family. From then on, you will have no worries on your path..."
laugh!
Before Huang Yunshang finished speaking, Chen Yuan suddenly activated his magic power, and a purple flying needle pierced through his throat, bringing out a string of blood beads!
Huang Yunshang opened his eyes wide, raised his hand to cover the wound on his throat, and stared at Chen Yuan with disbelief on his face.
Chen Yuan sneered:
"You are indeed a dandy boy. Your life and death are controlled by others, yet you dare to look down on others!"
I saw that several book friends raised some questions, such as the Ascension Conference, alchemists, spiritual roots, etc. These questions will be explained later. I pay the most attention to logic when writing books. I dare not say that all the settings are reasonable, but each setting is carefully thought out, so please rest assured.
