Shen Luo just waved his back to him, and walked away without rest.

Master Qinglian looked at his leaving back, his eyes flickered slightly, and the figure suddenly disappeared in place.

……

Time flies, it is several days later.

In the Sumeru Valley of Putuo Mountain, in a huge square covering an area of ​​thousands of feet, the voices of people were full of people, and it was very lively.

A large number of Mount Putuo disciples gathered around the square, discussing the upcoming Immortal Apricot Conference enthusiastically. The busy handymen on weekdays also had a lot of free time today, and they also came to watch the grand event.

Together with Bai Xiaotian, Shen Luo came to Sumeru Valley under the leadership of an elder deacon of Mount Putuo.

Before the two could enter the valley, they heard a loud shout: "Friend Daoist Bai, Fellow Daoist Shen."

Shen Luo looked back, and saw a tall man in blue armor walking towards them quickly, leaving behind the deacon elder of Mount Putuo who was guiding him.

He is more than nine feet tall, with neat short hair and a beard around his mouth that is longer than his hair. He is carrying a huge sword with the width of a door on his back. Looking from a distance, he looks like an iron tower standing in front of him.

"Fellow Daoist Zheng." Bai Xiaotian shouted with joy on his face.

It was Zheng Jun, a disciple of Jujianmen who also came to participate in the Fairy Apricot Conference.

"Two friends, how are you getting ready?" Zheng Jun stepped forward and asked with a smile.

"What is there to prepare for? It's just a competition of comrades. Friendship comes first, competition comes second." Bai Xiaotian said with a smile.

"Can you cheer up? I don't have much energy after what you say." Zheng Jun said helplessly after hearing the words.

"Fellow Daoist, I don't believe that. You don't want to show yourself in front of Senior Sister Lin Qianqian in Emei?" Bai Xiaoyun said with contempt upon hearing the words.

Unexpectedly, when Zheng Jun heard the words, the roots of his ears were slightly reddened, but he did not hesitate, and directly admitted:

"That's what I said, but with Senior Sister Lin here, even if I have no idea about Xianxing, I still want to help her fight for it."

When Bai Xiaotian heard the words, he subconsciously glanced at Shen Luo and didn't say anything.

Immortal apricot, taking it can increase lifespan by at least 200 years, how important is this to immortal cultivators at their stage, who really doesn't want it?

However, he came here this time more because he wanted to help Shen Luo win the fairy apricot.

While the three of them were talking, they had already walked into the valley, followed the passage leading directly to the square, and walked onto the white square.

Along the way, the Putuo disciples talked and pointed at Shen Luo and Bai Xiaotian, some praised him for being handsome, some said he was mediocre, and some compared Shen Luo with one of their senior brothers.

As for more, it was a sneer at the rumor about Nie Caizhu.

Shen Luo heard it in his ears, but he didn't take it seriously, his expression was indifferent, and he looked at the environment in the square quite relaxedly.

In the middle of the square, stands a ten-foot-high statue of a female god, holding the fearless seal in her right hand, and a jade bottle in her left hand. Behind her, thousands of arms are spread like peacocks. It is a statue of Avalokitesvara with thousands of hands.

Right in front of the statue, there is a lotus pond of nearly [-] zhang. Inside, the lotus pavilions and vines are blooming brilliantly. The surrounding lotus leaves are as green as jade, matching the pink petals, which is extremely beautiful.

At this time, several people were already standing by the lotus pond. Seeing them approaching, they each reacted differently.

One of them, a pretty woman with a slender figure in a light green dress, greeted them first, and warmly greeted them:

"Junior Brother Zheng, Junior Brother Bai, Junior Brother Shen..."

This woman is exactly the senior sister Lin Qianqian that Zheng Jun was talking about. In the past few days, through Bai Xiaotian's connection, several of them have become acquainted with each other.

Shen Luo and the others hurriedly returned their salutes. Zheng Jun, who was originally calm, smiled a little more after Lin Qianqian walked over, but he seemed a little reserved.

After Lin Qianqian, a young Toutuo in a blue Zen robe and a young monk in a moon-white robe walked over at the same time, raised their palms at the three of them, and recited a Buddha's name.

Although Shen Luo had never met these two, he also learned through Bai Xiaotian, the God of Ear Reporting, that the former was Kulin Zen Master from Qinglian Temple, and the latter was Chiyue Zen Master from Jiuhua Mountain.

Among them, although Qinglian Temple is under the command of Buddhism, it is unique and does not follow most of the rules and regulations.

Mount Jiuhua is even more unique. It belongs to the lineage of the underworld, and is an extension of the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's orthodoxy. The exercises pay more attention to crossing ghosts and eliminating karma.

Chapter 0802

"I'm Shen Luo, I've met some fellow Taoists." Shen Luo bowed to everyone, and turned his gaze to the person behind them.

It was a tall woman, dressed in a gray and white Taoist robe and a Taoist female crown, her face was covered with a white gauze, covering her face.

Seeing Shen Luo looking over, the woman also looked over without hesitation, but she didn't seem to be going forward to say hello.

Shen Luo could only smile awkwardly, and cupped his fists at him, but the woman still didn't respond.

After they walked back to the lotus pond, it was still under Lin Qianqian's recommendation that the woman opened her mouth and spoke a few words to Shen Luo and the others.

Only then did Shen Luo learn that his sect was Taiyingguan, a Taoist sect with only female crown disciples.

At this moment, two beams of light shot from a distance in the sky and slowly descended.

When the light escaped to the ground, a halo radiated from it, and two figures emerged from it, one with an ordinary appearance and one with an extraordinary handsome appearance.

Seeing the two people appear, especially when the handsome man in snow-white clothes smiled warmly at everyone, the disciples of Mount Putuo suddenly burst into applause.

"Senior Brother Zhou, it's Senior Brother Zhou..."

"Senior brother Zhou Yu, you are simply astonished..."

"Junior Sister Nie is really blind, how could she reject Senior Brother Zhou..."

The voices of people outside the square were endlessly discussed, many people were rejoicing, but also very angry for Zhou Yu.

……

Wei Qing frowned slightly, showing a little disgust at this scene.

Zhou Yu, who was still enjoying this kind of treatment, noticed a slight change in the expression of the man beside him, immediately raised his palm and shouted, "Quiet."

In an instant, a layer of gentle and majestic sound waves rolled over the square, and the discussion of the crowd suddenly stopped.

"Thanks to the support of all the friends, this year's Fairy Apricot Conference was held as scheduled. Mr. Zhou was entrusted by his master to preside over this conference. If there is anything wrong, I hope you will forgive me." Zhou Yu said.

"The whole process will be presided over by the disciples in the sect?" Shen Luo was surprised and asked in a low voice.

"This Fairy Apricot Conference itself is for junior disciples to exchange ideas, so the full authority is given to the disciples to host. We are also here alone, without the company of the elders. Besides, don't underestimate this Senior Brother Zhou Yu, he He has only practiced for more than a hundred years, and he is already a monk in the early stage of Mahayana." Lin Qianqian took the initiative to explain.

Hearing this, Shen Luo frowned slightly, but said nothing more.

At this moment, he was still thinking about another thing, which was why the people from the Dragon Palace had not been seen for so long, even though the journey was far away, it shouldn't have come at this time, and they hadn't shown up yet.

At this moment, I suddenly saw a pale yellow light flying towards me from a distance, and my figure spun lightly, like a goose-yellow butterfly slowly landed on the square.

Shen Luo's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth could not help but smile, Nie Caizhu is here.

"Junior Sister Nie, why are you here?" Zhou Yu, who was speaking, froze and asked.

"I met Uncle Wei, Senior Brother Zhou." Nie Caizhu stepped forward and saluted.

Wei Qing just nodded and didn't speak, he just wanted the ceremony to end as soon as possible.

Zhou Yu thought of a certain possibility, and an imperceptible anger flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"Junior sister was ordered by the head of the sect. In order to break the bottleneck as soon as possible, today I will take the place of Senior Sister Lu to participate in the Fairy Apricot Conference." Nie Caizhu said with a smile on her face and clasped her fists.

"Swapping just before the battle, this..." Zhou Yu frowned slightly, and said in embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter, since it is the order of the head, I will obey it." Wei Qing said before he finished speaking.

"Yes, thank you, Senior Uncle Wei and Senior Brother Zhou." Nie Caizhu smiled, saluted the two of them, and walked towards Shen Luo and the others.

Seeing her coming, Bai Xiaotian tactfully moved aside, leaving a space for Nie Caizhu.

The latter walked over naturally and stood next to Shen Luo, boos immediately erupted from the audience.

"Cousin, what's going on?" Shen Luo asked via voice transmission.

"For the sake of Xianxing, I will help you." Nie Caizhu said simply.

Upon hearing this, Shen Luo's eyes were filled with smiles, and he didn't continue to ask any more questions. This answer was enough.

"By the way, do you know why no one from Dragon Palace attended the meeting?" He suddenly remembered this and asked.

"I heard from Master the day before yesterday that something went wrong inside the Four Seas Dragon Palace. Donghai just passed on a letter saying that he would be absent from the meeting, but did not give a specific explanation." Nie Caizhu replied.

Hearing this, Shen Luo couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart.

Outside the square, Li Shu and Wu Ming were standing side by side in front of the crowd. Beside them stood a slender woman with a straight nose and slanted eyebrows. She was wearing a black robe and her hair was tied up high. Dressed up like a man.

"Senior Sister Lu, what's going on?" Li Shu looked at the situation on the stage and couldn't help asking the woman beside her.

It was none other than Lu Ying who was replaced by Nie Caizhu.

"What else could be going on, for the sake of her fiancé, she begged me to give up the quota... I really don't know what's so good about that kid Shen Luo." Lu Ying sighed and said helplessly.

"The head over there..." Li Shu asked tentatively.

"There is no order to be the head of the sect. She is the one who cut it first and then played it. This time it will inevitably be dragged down, and a punishment will be inevitable." Lu Ying said with an even more frustrated expression.

"You just continue to die..." Wu Ming, who was on the side, couldn't help sneering in his heart when he heard what the two said.

When he told Zhou Yu about the relationship between Shen Luo and Nie Caizhu the day before yesterday, although the latter seemed calm, his fists on the table could not help but clenched tightly, and the joints turned white.

Wu Ming believed that the more intimate Shen Luo and Nie Caizhu showed, the sharper Zhou Yu's shots would be in the future.

"This play is really getting more and more interesting..." Wu Ming felt complacent and couldn't help muttering.

"What play?" Li Shu asked, looking at him in a daze upon hearing the words.

Wu Ming looked embarrassed, quickly waved his hands, and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing..."

Li Shu didn't say anything after hearing that, and turned her gaze to the stage again.

After a brief gaffe, Zhou Yu regained his composure and continued: "This year's Fairy Apricot Conference is slightly different from the previous ones due to the small number of participants. Experience in the secret realm."

"Experience in the secret realm, what kind of comparison is this..."

"It's not a competition, what do you think..."

The surrounding audience immediately talked about it.

"The secret realm...is the Hualien secret realm reopening?" Some older disciples had already guessed something.

In the square, everyone in Shen Luo was quite surprised, obviously they didn't know it beforehand.

Chapter 0803

"Quiet, you don't need to be confused. The whole process of this competition will be presented to everyone through the Xuantian Mirror. You just have to watch it carefully." Zhou Yu suppressed the chaotic state of the scene, and then said slowly.

As his words fell, behind the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara statue on the square, a burst of cyan glare lit up, and seven huge bronze mirrors shining with cyan light rose slowly, suspended in mid-air.

Each blue-light mirror reflects a yellow halo, which looks more blurred than the copper mirrors used in ordinary homes.

But then, Zhou Yu pinched a formula with both hands, and raised his hand to shoot a blue light one by one towards the yellow copper mirror with seven sides and ten feet high.

As the blue light flew in, a ring-shaped rune was reflected on the mirror surface of those copper mirrors, and then a layer of blue light lit up from the center of the rune, and spread towards the surroundings, quickly dispelling all the yellow light on the mirror surface. sweep away.

The specular halo dissipated, and landscape pictures with different appearances were soon revealed on it.

Among the crowd, many of them saw this magic weapon for the first time, and they couldn't help feeling amazed, and they all let out a sound of amazement again and again.

"What is shown on the Xuantian mirror is the scene in the Hualien Secret Realm. You can use this to watch the performance of the fellow disciples in the secret realm. Next, I would like to invite Uncle Wei Qing to explain the competition in detail for the participating disciples." Rules." Satisfied with everyone's reactions, Zhou Yu nodded and said.

Hearing this, Wei Qing hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, and said:

"Fellow daoists, this Hualien secret realm trial lasts for seven days. After the secret realm is opened, you will be randomly teleported to the border area of ​​the secret realm. Who can pass through the obstacles in the secret realm first and reach the neem tree in the center of the secret realm?" , take down the command flag placed there, and you will win."

When Shen Luo and the others heard the words, they all began to secretly think about the rules Wei Qing said.

"Uncle Wei, what if no one can go to the neem tree after seven days?" Lin Qianqian asked first.

"The trial of the secret realm is limited to seven days. If no one wins after seven days, then the meeting will end in failure for all members." Wei Qing said slowly.

"Senior Wei, if someone arrives under the neem tree ahead of time and gets the command flag within seven days, what should we do? Will the trial end early?" Shen Luo also asked.

"No, staying in the secret realm for seven days is a test in itself." Wei Qing shook his head and said.

"So, if someone gets the command flag in advance, he must guard the command flag to prevent others from snatching it until seven days later?" Shen Luo pondered.

"You understand well, that's exactly what it is. And I would like to remind you that the person who gets the command flag must stay under the neem tree, and must not hide his tracks and escape elsewhere." Wei Qing said.

When everyone heard this, their expressions couldn't help changing. They all frowned and thought about it.

In this way, the Fairy Apricot Conference this time will be much more difficult than the previous ones. If you want to win, you must not only compete everywhere in the secret realm, but also strive to get under the neem tree as soon as possible.

But once you get the command flag, you will become the target of public criticism. It will naturally become extremely difficult to accept the constant challenges of others and persist until the end.

Shen Luo felt depressed, and even felt that the sudden revision of the trial content this time was precisely set up by the head of Qinglian to target him.
