Mysterious Pill Palace.
Dragon-Suppressing Flat.
A large golden list with dragon scale patterns faintly emerging and the words “Dragon-Slaying” written on the top hung down from the sky above the huge True Dragon Flat, fluttering in the wind.
From a distance, it was like golden waves churning above the Dragon-Suppressing Flat.
“It is said that in ancient times, all the remaining evils of the dragon race in the Upper Clear Realm hid in the three thousand cave heavens and blessed lands of Chenglongtian. In order to prevent the dragon race from rising again, the major sects in Chenglongtian led by the Mysterious Pill Palace summoned all the cultivators in the world to gather in Chenglongtian to slay the remnants of the dragon race.
“And this Zhenlongping is the execution ground where human cultivators executed the remaining evils of the dragon race.”
On a viewing platform on the west side of Zhenlongping, Xiahou Qingyuan of Yuheng Mountain introduced to Xiahou You beside him.
Xiahou You asked with a slight frown：
“No wonder when I entered the venue just now, I felt an extremely strong resentment and murderous aura.”
Xiahou Qingyuan nodded and said：
“So later Xuandan Palace changed this place to the place for the inner disciples’ competition, and also the place for watching the battle of each session of the Dragon-Slaying Conference.”
“To suppress this resentment and murderous aura of the remaining evils of the dragon race in this way.”
Xiahou You nodded suddenly with a look of understanding.
Xiahou Qingyuan then said：
“Today is only for getting on the list, so there are not many people who come to watch the battle. When the Dragon-Slaying Conference officially starts, you can even see the cultivators of the upper realm come to watch the battle in the posture of mind wandering specially.
Xiahou You sighed：
“This momentum is much greater than that of the Golden Scale Conference and the Dragon-Slaying Conference.”
“Naturally.” Xiahou Qingyuan nodded, and then his eyes looked at the field again. “Among the five regions of the upper and lower Qing realms, the overall strength of Chenglongtian is the closest to that of the upper realm. Even the forces of the upper realm sects dare not cause trouble in Chenglongtian.
And just as the two were talking, there was a “clang” sound, and seven consecutive tolls of the bell rang out one after another.
Immediately following, I heard Elder Lu of Xuandan Palace, who was standing on the high platform right below the Dragon-Slaying List, loudly remind the cultivators who came to the list below the stage：
“In a quarter of an hour, the Monster-Slaying List will be taken away. Please, cultivators who have not yet made it onto the list, quickly come to the stage and hand over the chain.
”No waiting after the deadline！”
Upon hearing this, the cultivators watching the battle, including Xiahou Qingyuan and his sister, all turned their eyes towards Dongfang Yuejian and Xuanzhi below the stage in unison.
Apart from a few cultivators who were not able to successfully make it onto the list, currently only Dongfang Yuejian and Monk Xuanzhi were left and had not yet come to the stage to enter the list.
Of course, the most important reason for everyone’s such attention was because Dongfang Yuejian was the current head of the Dongfang Family, one of the five great families in Chenglongtian.
The cultivators watching the battle, especially those from Chenglongtian, not only wanted to see Dongfang Yuejian enter the list, but also wanted to see what rank Dongfang Yuejian could achieve when entering the list.
And the basis for the ranking of entering the list was naturally through the stone tablet on the stage, which tested the strength of the spiritual power of the chain in the hands of the cultivators who entered the list.
As everyone knew, the spiritual power in the chain would only increase with the number of times the carrier went through trials and tribulations together.
So the ranking of the spiritual power of the chain was basically equivalent to the ranking of the combat power of the team it belonged to.
More importantly, in the following Dragon-Slaying Assembly, corresponding dragon-slaying conditions will be provided for the team ranked according to this ranking to participate in the Dragon-Slaying Assembly.
The higher the ranking, the better the conditions.
Xiahou You looked at Dongfang Yuejian and Xuanzhi who still hadn’t stepped onto the stage below, and said with a tight frown：
“These two people should still be waiting for Young Master Taiping.”
Xiahou Qingyuan shook his head and said：
“Being blocked by a strong person like Du Heng of the Three Corpse Cave, it’s already not easy to survive. Don’t even dream that he will come to participate in this Dragon-Slaying Assembly.”
Regarding the matter of Xu Taiping being blocked by Du Heng of the Three Corpse Cave, the Upper Clear Cultivation World already knows it all.
And for someone like Xiahou Qingyuan, a disciple of a hermit family, he even obtained the news that Xu Taiping is still alive through the power of the sect.
However, even so, Xiahou Qingyuan still doesn’t think that Xu Taiping can come to participate in this Dragon-Slaying Assembly after being blocked by Du Heng and a group of upper realm powerhouses.
Xiahou You frowned and muttered：
“Until the last moment, no one can determine whether Young Master Taiping can rush over.”
Xiahou Qingyuan shook his head and said：
“Sister, even if he can come, participating in the Dragon-Slaying Assembly with a seriously injured body is not a good thing for him.”
Xiahou Qingyuan added：
“You should know that the danger of the Dragon-Slaying Assembly is no less than the battle between him and Du Heng!”
Xiahou You sighed, with a hint of anger in his eyes, and said：
“After this Dragon-Slaying Assembly, I will definitely find out the power that invited that Du Heng！”
Xiahou Qingyuan took a deep look at Xiahou You, hesitated to speak, but finally just shook his head helplessly.
“Dang！ ……”
Just then, in the bell toll on the high platform, seven consecutive sounds rang out again.
Immediately afterwards, the Elder Lu of the Xuandan Palace loudly reminded again：
“In half a cup of tea’s time, the Monster-Slaying List will be taken back. The cultivators who have not yet stepped onto the platform to enter the list, please step onto the platform quickly！”
After this sound, a commotion rang out on the stands around the True Dragon Flat.
Because they didn’t expect that Dongfang Yuejian was so persistent and was still waiting for Xu Taiping’s arrival.
However, this time, Dongfang Yuejian and Xuanzhi did not sit still anymore, but stood up together.
Seeing this, Xiahou Qingyuan nodded thoughtfully and said：
“It seems that Miss Dongfang can no longer wait.”
There was a hint of disappointment in Xiahou You’s eyes.
Immediately, accompanied by a sound of breaking the wind, Dongfang Yuejian and Xuanzhi successively flew and landed on the high platform in the center of the True Dragon Flat.
Immediately following, it could be seen that Dongfang Yuejian and Master Xuanzhi successively presented their respective Tongzhou Chains to Elder Lu.
Upon seeing this scene, Xiahou Qingyuan immediately took out a spiritual mirror.
It could be seen that what was reflected in the spiritual mirror in his hand was precisely the scene at this moment when Elder Lu on the high platform received the Tongzhou Chains from Dongfang Yuejian and Master Xuanzhi.
However, Xiahou Qingyuan did not look at Dongfang Yuejian and Xuanzhi on the platform. Instead, he enlarged the picture in the spiritual mirror in his hand and focused his gaze on the faces of those several heads of the Chenglongtian families below the platform.
Seeing this, Xiahou You couldn’t help but ask curiously：
Second brother, are you planning to find out the head of the family who invited Du Heng to stop the Taiping Gongzi from the reactions of these heads of the Chenglongtian families？
Xiahou Qingyuan nodded and said：
“Let’s give it a try. If that head of the family disguises himself well, I might not be able to tell anything.”
Upon hearing this, Xiahou You nodded.
Just as the two were talking, it could be seen that Elder Lu of the Xuandan Palace had already walked to the stone tablet with the two Tongzhou Chains in hand.
Then, it could be seen that Elder Lu raised one of the Tongzhou Chains and said loudly：
“The one who enters the list is the Dongfang family of Chenglongtian, Dongfang Yuejian.”
As he spoke, it could be seen that he placed Dongfang Yuejian’s Tongzhou Chain on the palm of a dragon claw engraved on the stone tablet.
The next moment, only heard a “boom”, a dazzling red light flew out from the stone tablet, and finally turned into a red sword light soaring into the sky.
“Bang！ ……”
Finally, in the astonished and shocked eyes of all the cultivators, this sword light actually flew more than three thousand zhang high in one go.
For a while, the whole field was in an uproar.
You know, among the cultivators who stepped onto the stage for inspection before, the one with the strongest spiritual power in the Tongzhou Chain was only able to make the sword light in the stone tablet soar to one thousand eight hundred zhang.
And even so, it was already the highest record in the recent Dragon Slaying Conference.
Then, in the midst of the uproar in the field, I only heard the Elder Lu holding up the Tongzhou Chain of Dongfang Yuejian and loudly proclaiming：
“Dongfang Yuejian, the sword broke through the clouds for two thousand one hundred zhang and can be ranked as A+ grade！”
As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar on the surrounding viewing platforms.
Because this was still the only A+ grade among the cultivators who stepped onto the stage for inspection so far.
