The Ji Family's Pride

Chapter 167 Qing Ping and Bei Ming

Inside the main hall of Tianmang Palace, over a thousand celestial immortal ancestors followed the Heavenly God Fu Hai and could not help but look at the dozen or so celestial gods and immortals who were chatting and chatting with each other. Seeing that they seemed to be chatting enthusiastically, they were naturally very curious.

But no matter how curious they were, the content of the conversations between cultivators at the level of gods and immortals was not something that they, the immortals, could listen in on.

What's more, Emperor Xia had already isolated the inside and the outside. Those gods and immortals could hear and see the outside, but from the outside, unless Emperor Xia and others were willing, it would be like seeing flowers in the fog.

"Xia Mang, who is the young man who fought with Xiao Lazi? I think the magical power he displayed was the world in his sleeves! How could such a magical power be learned by a little guy at the level of Wanxiang..." The Sea God said, and immediately looked at the Yellow Dragon God, "Is this little guy your disciple?"

Fu Hai Tian Shen couldn't help but think so. Huang Long Tian Shen was a disciple of the Three Pure Ones. He became a disciple of the Three Pure Ones very early. Although this Sleeve of Heaven and Earth was also a great magical power that existed in the bottom of the Taoist box, if Huang Long Tian Shen was very optimistic about this disciple, it was not impossible for him to ask the master to bestow this magical power.

Upon hearing this, Lü Dongbin immediately looked over and said, "Fu Hai, when you came here, didn't the Emperor Xuanwu explain the situation of this Immortal Fate Conference to you?"

"Let's talk about the situation of this Immortal Fate Conference? What's so special about this Immortal Fate Conference? It's nothing more than the gathering of turbulent luck in the Three Realms that can produce a few more talents! It's just a few Wanxiang Zhenren making trouble!" Fu Hai Tianshen shook his head. In his opinion, the fighting between these Wanxiang Zhenren was indeed very immature.

“By the way. Huanglong Tianshen, Donghua, there is an Immortal Fate Conference being held in the Daxia world, why are all of you here?” Fu Hai took a quick look and then asked. He also found it strange. A Pure Yang Immortal is a strong one in the Three Realms. It is quite rare for ten Pure Yang Immortals to gather together.

"Fu Hai, the Immortal Fate Conference held by Xia Mang this time is different from the previous ones." Huanglong God immediately raised his wine glass and looked at Fu Hai God from afar. Fu Hai God also raised his wine cup and drank the wine in the cup before speaking slowly.

"First, I don't have the ability to accept Junior Brother Qingping as my disciple! This World in the Sleeve was personally passed down by my master, the Three Pure Ones, which means that Junior Brother Qingping is his disciple. Second, I am the same as you. After this Immortal Fate Conference is over, I will take Junior Brother back to the heaven, to my master!"

"The disciple accepted by the Three Pure Ones?" Fuhai Tianshen was shocked. "The Three Pure Ones has not accepted any disciples for countless years! I was just wondering how I met you, Huanglong Tianshen, when I came here after being away from the Three Realms for a long time. It turns out that you, like me, are here to pick up my junior brother."

"Not only that, this time, in addition to Emperor Xuanwu and my master, even Daozu Chiming will accept a disciple." Lu Dongbin immediately laughed, "And the disciple accepted by Daozu Chiming will be selected from the top three decided in this Immortal Fate Conference. So you know the special nature of this Immortal Fate Conference."

"Oh? That's indeed very special!" Upon hearing this, the God of Sea became interested and his gaze fell on the clouds outside the temple again.

……

“Hahaha.” Inside the forbidden formation above the clouds, Ji Xiaoshan was extremely happy. He laughed loudly, “What a joy! It’s really joyful! Sloppy Senior Brother! Come again!”

"Hahaha! I also feel like I haven't had such a satisfying fight in a long time!"

Sloppy Master also laughed and said, "But Junior Brother Qingping! My Secret Art of Layered Waves has its limits. Although it can continuously stack the power of supernatural powers, it consumes too much divine power. Moreover, I have only just comprehended this Secret Art of Layered Waves not long ago, and now it has reached the limit of what I can control..."

"Senior Brother Sloppy, you..." Ji Xiaoshan was stunned, and immediately found that the huge turtle-snake shadow behind Master Sloppy was indeed much dimmer than before.

"Junior brother, go ahead for me! At least let me, the Black and White Academy, win first place in the Immortal Fate Conference once!" Sloppy Master smiled slightly and immediately stopped his magical powers.

"I surrender!"

Ji Xiaoshan looked up at the calm Sloppy Master, with an inexplicable expression. "Sloppy Senior Brother, what's your heart..."

He knew that although the sloppy master had learned the great magical power of Xuanwu, he did not know that he had become a disciple of the Xuanwu Emperor. Even so, he was still able to take it lightly when he missed the opportunity to become a disciple of Daozu...

He nodded and said, "Okay!"

……

"I have already ranked in the top three in this Immortal Fate Conference. Now I also have the opportunity to become a disciple of Daozu, even if Daozu Chi Ming does not choose me..." On the short journey from the forbidden formation to the main hall of Tianmang Palace, Ji Xiaoshan was thinking all the way, and his eyes fell on the magnificent palace not far away that exuded a strong aura.

"Even if I am not chosen, if I were to shamelessly become a disciple of Lu Dongbin... Besides, there is also the powerful immortal cultivator named Huang Long..."

……

Countless immortal cultivators in the imperial city all looked at Ji Xiaoshan in the water mirror. Emperor Xia and other celestial gods and immortals, as well as all the celestial immortal ancestors in the main hall of Tianmang Palace, all looked over.

At this moment, Ji Xiaoshan's tall and handsome figure was the most dazzling existence in the entire Daxia Imperial City.

"The first battle has decided the top three candidates!" Emperor Xia said. His majestic voice came from the imperial throne, spread to the entire Tianmang Palace, and echoed throughout the world.

In an instant, the entire Great Xia Imperial City was in an uproar.

"The top three immortal cultivators have been decided!"

"I had already been optimistic about Master Qing Ping in the Moonlight Landscape Painting. I didn't expect that Master Qing Ping would actually get one of the top three spots!"

"You were optimistic about Master Qing Ping in the Moonlight Landscape Painting? I remember that you were more optimistic about the genius Cangwu Eagle of the Cangwu clan!"

"This Master Qing Ping is truly a monster!"

……

Emperor Xia continued, "The second battle will be between the independent cultivator Black Stone Master and the Black and White Academy's Bei Ming Master." "Let Ji Ning fight Black Stone Master in advance?" Ji Xiaoshan's expression changed. "With Ji Ning's current strength, fighting against Black Stone Master... his chances of winning are not small."

Ji Ning was originally going to fight against Xia Mang Zishan when he advanced to the top three, but now he is facing Master Black Stone in advance.

"But if Ji Ning is interfered with by me... I wonder if he can still have the same sudden enlightenment as before..."

After all, the opportunity for sudden enlightenment is something that cultivators can only encounter by chance. That state of being in a state of no thoughts and everything being done as one wishes... is of great benefit to one's own strength.

……

Above the clouds and mist, inside the forbidden formation.

Ji Ning and Master Black Stone looked at each other from a distance. They both seemed to be standing calmly. But behind this calmness was the obsession of winning! They both wanted to enter the top three, and to enter the top three they had to defeat the opponent in front of them.

The two of them, one is a dark-skinned, bald, barefoot boy, and the other is a boy in a white robe. They have completely different temperaments.

"We meet again." Master Black Stone smiled slightly, "I heard that you and Master Qing Ping not only graduated from the same Black and White Academy, but are also from the same clan?"

"Yeah." Ji Ning nodded. He was a little unsure about Master Black Stone's relaxed look.

Master Black Stone looked at Ji Ning and said, "Master Bei Ming, I have seen you fight, and you are not as good as Master Qing Ping. Therefore, I must be among the top three in this Immortal Fate Conference."

"So you put yourself on the same level as him?" Ji Ning said calmly.

He said slowly, "If this gives you confidence... I have only been practicing for more than thirty years. And I have only been a Purple Mansion cultivator for more than ten years. It took me more than ten years to reach this level. And the countless battles in the Bright Moon Landscape Painting in a year are enough to offset the previous ten years of hard practice. And my strength is far beyond what you see."

"Only thirty years?" Master Black Stone's pupils shrank. The short period of time that Ji Ning had practiced was indeed frightening.

"Come on." Ji Ning looked at Master Black Stone calmly. This calmness was like the undercurrent beneath the calm surface of a river, and behind it was hidden an even crazier fighting spirit.

……

"Qing Ping." Yuchi Xiyue said, "You are Ji Ning's cousin. Can you tell who will win between Ji Ning and this Black Stone Master?"

At this moment, the two people in the forbidden formation outside had already started fighting.

Ji Xiaoshan turned his head and looked at Yuchi Xiyue and said in a deep voice, "Master Black Stone is good at the Fuxi stick formation. With the formation... he can completely hide in the formation. As long as Master Black Stone has time to set up the formation, the entire battle situation will be directly controlled by Master Black Stone. He can fight when he wants to and retreat when he wants. He is very difficult to deal with."

"According to what you said, with the help of the formation, Master Black Stone is invincible?" Yuchi Xiyue was puzzled.

"No." Sloppy Master also said, "This fight must be decided, and the use of the stick formation requires the consumption of energy and divine power. Junior Brother Bei Ming can easily drag it out until Master Black Stone's divine power is exhausted, and he will have no choice but to fight him. So the final decision will still depend on Master Black Stone's close combat! Of course, he can take advantage of the formation..."

"However... we traveled together in the Mingyue Mountain and Water Painting for a while before, and Master Black Stone is also good at close combat." Wan Nianfeng said. He had fought with Master Black Stone more than ten times, so naturally he was very familiar with his close combat ability.

Ji Xiaoshan smiled, "Princess Xiyue, don't worry. Ji Ning still has a trump card that he hasn't fully used yet! He needs to directly break through the formation of Black Stone Master. With Ji Ning's strength, there is a great chance that he can win this competition."

……

boom!
Sure enough, it didn't take long.

A thunderous roar was heard, and Ji Ning began to explode, using his three heads and six arms to perform the Star-Picking Hand with all his strength.

His six arms waved in the air, each of them contained endless power under the Star-Picking Divine Ability. The six immortal swords were under his control, and wherever the immortal swords passed, the restrictions of the formation were like fragile paper, being torn open easily.

In close combat, although Master Black Stone was also not weak and was on the same level as Xia Mang, Zishan and others, when Ji Ning was in a state of enlightenment in swordsmanship, every thrust of his sword contained the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, and the connection between the sword moves was smooth and natural, without any flaws.

Naturally, Master Black Stone was also unable to resist.

Master Black Stone looked at Ji Ning, feeling unwilling.

"I surrender!"

Wow!
As Master Black Stone admitted defeat, Ji Ning immediately put away his magical powers. His three heads and six arms slowly disappeared, and the six immortal swords were also put away by him. He returned to his calm and indifferent state.

He said calmly, "Although I may not be as good as my clan brother, True Man Qing Ping, defeating you is not as difficult as you might think."
