Chapter 398 Sword Contest III
In the previous battle, after Song Qingming borrowed the Ecstasy Flag to hide his figure, he was indeed hidden inside the Blue Water Bell at first. After the attack from above weakened slightly, Song Qingming found an opportunity to sneak out from under the Blue Water Bell. Then he borrowed the Hidden Spirit shirt to hide himself in the smoke.
The old man in yellow had been focusing on attacking the Bishui Bell. He didn't even notice that Song Qingming's body had moved. In the end, he chose to attack the Bishui Bell rashly, which also played into Song Qingming's hands. He suddenly attacked at close range and broke the person in yellow who had been protecting him. The black bronze mirror on the old man's body.
After suffering a blow from Song Qingming, although the old man in yellow was not defeated, he temporarily lost the black bronze mirror, a powerful protective weapon. In the following battle, Song Qingming did not give him another chance and borrowed the power of the Blue Water Bell. The defensive ability directly launched a fierce attack on it at close range.
Apart from the black bronze mirror, the old man in yellow only had a second-grade low-grade defensive weapon of very average quality. After being attacked at close range by Song Qingming holding a black silver knife, he quickly fell into a disadvantage. Somewhat unwillingly, he persisted for a while, but was still defeated. After watching Song Qingming defeat him, he directly got a seat in the top ten.
After defeating the old man in yellow, Song Qingming did not expect that he would enter the top ten. In fact, the old man in yellow, as his last opponent, was not much weaker than Song Qingming. The main reason why Song Qingming could win the final victory this time was I still relied on the sharpness of the several magical weapons in my hands.
Another point is that in order to reflect the true combat level of all monks, this sword discussion conference prohibits all participating monks from using consumable spiritual objects such as talismans and elixirs that have a greater impact on the outcome of the battle. The old man in yellow, as a A monk who is proficient in magic will definitely be a master in using talismans, and he will indeed suffer some small losses in this.
After Song Qingming's side ended the battle, it was soon the other monks' turn to take the field. He quickly retreated to the sidelines to watch the battle, and patiently watched the competition between other masters.
In the next competition, the fighting skills of the monks on the field have almost reached the late stage of foundation building. Being able to watch the competition between monks of the same level at close range is a rare opportunity for Song Qingming to improve his own fighting skills.
After more than a dozen battles, the round of sword competition finally ended. Among the ten winners, in addition to Song Qingming himself, there was also an old acquaintance he met in Jinyun Pavilion. Fang Wuqian.
This time when he came to Tuoyun Mountain, Fang Wuqian's cultivation had already reached the eighth level of foundation building. Because he had dealt with Fang Wuqian in the Fuyun Mountains before, Song Qingming also knew a little about his strength. Fang Wuqian could enter the top ten. The name Song Qingming was not surprising.
What Song Qingming didn't expect was that Huang Shengxin, whose cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level of foundation building for many years, actually lost to an ordinary casual cultivator who only had the eighth level of foundation building in the last battle, and failed to enter the top ten. name.
From this battle, Song Qingming also saw some clues. If it were placed a decade or two ago, with Huang Shengxin's strength, even if the opponent's skills were somewhat restrained, he would never lose to his opponent in the end.
Although Huang Shengxin still looks rosy and energetic when he goes out this time, his longevity is not far away, and his own vitality has obviously begun to slowly lose. It is estimated that in another four or five years, Huang Shengxin's I am afraid that even the opponents in the middle stage of ordinary foundation building may not be able to defeat them.
After selecting the top ten in this sword competition, the next step was to compete for the top three. This time Song Qingming was a little unlucky. He met a strong man who had performed exceptionally well in the previous rounds of competitions. The person is Lin Yutian, an inner sect disciple on the ninth floor of the Xiaoyao Sect.
Lin Yutian came to Tuoyun Mountain with his master Chu Fengping this time. Song Qingming had actually recognized him from the first day he appeared behind Chu Fengping.
Song Qingming had met him at an auction of Tiandan League many years ago. At that time, Lin Yutian had a little conflict with the Ma family monks from Tiexian Valley in order to compete for a talisman that appeared at the auction, but in the end he still had a conflict. The monks sent by the Ma family had more spiritual stones and got the talisman.
Facing this opponent who was obviously stronger than him in terms of skills, cultivation and magical weapons, even though Song Qingming tried his best in the following battle, he was quickly suppressed by the opponent and fell into a disadvantage. In order to save himself some energy, Song Qingming thought about it and simply gave up in advance.
Like Song Qingming, Fang Wuqian had the misfortune to meet the top three contenders in the Sword Discussion Conference, Fairy Qiudie.
However, Fang Wuqian was not willing to accept that he was only in the top ten. Although he knew in his heart that his opponent was stronger than him, he still went all out to fight with Fairy Qiudie. Although he still ended up in a somewhat awkward position. He was defeated, but he still received applause from many monks who were watching the battle.
In the end, after several rounds of fierce competition, the top three in the Sword Discussion Conference fell on Lin Yutian, Fairy Qiudie and a tall, fat old man who was a casual cultivator. The three monks also got their wish and got one each. The reward of a second-grade high-grade magic weapon is really a bit enviable to others.
Song Qingming, Fang Wuqian and other cultivators who entered the top ten were not surprised. They each received a Moon-Watching Pill. Although the Moon-Watching Pill was much less valuable than the rewards for the top three, for Song Qingming and others, participating in a sword-fighting conference and getting a second-level middle-grade pill worth 500 spirit stones for free was enough to make them satisfied.
After the sword-fighting conference ended, the Tuoyun Mountain Trade Fair immediately entered its final stage. The Jinyun Pavilion also directly took out a batch of the finale spirit objects and placed them directly on the high platform on the third floor.
Among these spirit objects, there were three foundation-building pills alone. In addition, there were many second-level high-grade spirit objects that were rarely seen in normal times. Even the third-level spirit object that was extremely rare, such as the Barrier-Breaking Pill, Song Qingming saw several in a row.
However, these spirit objects cannot be bought with spirit stones casually. Ancestor Chen, a Jindan cultivator who has practiced for hundreds of years, naturally will not lack these thousands or tens of thousands of spirit stones. What he wants are those spirit objects that can be useful to him, the Jindan ancestor.
It is the same as what Song Qingming had seen before. As long as you can take out a spiritual object to impress him, no matter it is the Foundation Establishment Pill or other spiritual objects, you can directly exchange it. Of course, if the value of the spiritual object you take out is not equal to the spiritual object you want to exchange, both parties still have to take out spirit stones or other spiritual objects to make up the difference.
