Five Elements Sacred Secret

When Mu Xiaofeng heard Fu Yu say this, he also had some thoughts in his mind. He would definitely be able to practice faster if he went to the inner sect.

"Brother Mu, I think you can go if you have the ability." Yang Zhijun didn't know Mu Xiaofeng's ability, but he also knew that this opportunity was rare, so he persuaded Mu Xiaofeng.

"Let me think about it, brother." Mu Xiaofeng said.

Mu Xiaofeng wanted to go, but he was worried.

Mu Xiaofeng thought that his cultivation level could not be hidden from people with higher cultivation levels. If there really was someone with a much higher cultivation level who wanted to target him, he would be at the mercy of others.

"Okay, Brother, I'll go take a look." Mu Xiaofeng said after thinking for a moment.

The meal was quickly completed in a pleasant environment.

After eating, the two returned to their residence. Yang Zhiyun said that he had to seize the time to practice so as not to be bullied again.

Mu Xiaofeng returned to his residence and thought about the means he could use in the battle. The means he was going to use were mainly based on the gold attribute. Currently, he had both defensive and offensive means. He just didn't know how many Qi Refining Level 9 people there were in the entire outer sect. Mu Xiaofeng was still confident in himself at the Qi Refining Level 8. He only needed to consider the powerful Qi Refining Level 9 people.

Moreover, I only entered the inner gate, so I didn't need to consider the quality of my grades. Wouldn't the top ten be able to enter? Even if I got tenth place, I could still enter the inner gate.

The next day, the news about the martial arts contest spread throughout the entire menial service area.

Mu Xiaofeng also knew more details about the martial arts secrets, but another piece of news made him change his strategy.

The martial arts competition will be held half a month later, and the first place winner will not only be able to choose his own master but will also get a chance to enter the sea of ​​spiritual energy.

This sea of ​​spiritual energy is said to be a holy place for cultivation. Practicing in it for one day is equivalent to practicing outside for ten days. Isn’t this what Mu Xiaofeng needs most right now?

Moreover, you basically don’t need a master to cultivate yourself, but you can find a master who makes pills.

This made Mu Xiaofeng change his mind about just being the first one to enter, and instead he decided to fight for the first place.

However, the gold spiritual root that the alchemist showed was problematic. Who would want to learn alchemy if their spiritual root was not suitable for alchemy?

Mu Xiaofeng thought about it and decided to learn a new spiritual skill. Anyway, no one had seen him use a spiritual skill so far, and those who had seen him were already dead.

After thinking about it, only the people in the library knew the spiritual skills he had learned, but who in the library would care about a new disciple who had just joined. This made Mu Xiaofeng feel relieved.

There is still half a month left, which is definitely enough.

Mu Xiaofeng came to the library again. He sensed the formation when he scanned it with his spiritual sense. He didn't understand these things before. After reading the general outline of the formation, Mu Xiaofeng could tell at a glance that there was a formation in the library, but he couldn't understand what kind of formation it was.

The knowledge of the general principles of formations tells me that this is a formation, but I still can't figure out what kind of formation it is.

Mu Xiaofeng thought about it and realized that if a newbie like himself could understand it, then the formation of the sect's library would probably be of no use.

Mu Xiaofeng went straight to the wood-attributed spiritual skills, and this time he wanted to find some wood-attributed offensive and defensive methods.

For normal alchemy, wood attribute spiritual roots are the best, for refining tools, gold or fire attribute spiritual roots are the best, for formations, earth attribute spiritual roots are the best, and for talismans, there are not many requirements for the attributes of the spiritual roots.

The reason why it is the best is that other spiritual roots are not impossible, but the difficulty is greater. For example, in alchemy, wood-attributed spiritual roots and spiritual herbs with the same attributes are naturally much easier. Generally, when an alchemist recruits a disciple, he will look at the spiritual root attributes and choose a more suitable spiritual root for better development.

The same is true for spiritual skills. Although they are divided into different attributes, they can be used even if the spiritual roots are not of the same attribute. It's just that the effect of using them is quite different. For the same wood-attribute spiritual skill, the power of using wood-attribute spiritual roots and non-wood-attribute spiritual roots may differ by twice.

Mu Xiaofeng chose two books of attack and one of defense. The attack was a book of swordsmanship and a book of fists, the falling leaf swordsmanship, and no moving fists. The defense was also a kind of spiritual shield, called the Wood Spirit Shield.

The spiritual skills in the Qi Refining Stage are actually very simple. They can only be used after the foundation is established and the spiritual consciousness is formed. Mu Xiaofeng certainly cannot use the spiritual consciousness in the martial arts, so what he will compete with at that time is the spiritual energy.

Mu Xiaofeng was naturally not afraid of competing with those in the Qi Refining stage in terms of spiritual energy. He estimated that the spiritual energy he had absorbed since he started practicing Qi Refining was enough for an ordinary person to build a foundation.

Mu Xiaofeng planned to practice spiritual skills in the next half month. In fact, he could comprehend them very quickly because they were not difficult. Mu Xiaofeng had also learned gold-attributed sword techniques before, which were basically the same.

Half a month passed quickly and the martial arts competition was about to begin.

During this period, in addition to practicing spiritual skills, Mu Xiaofeng also absorbed all of his remaining nearly 3,000 spiritual stones. What made Mu Xiaofeng depressed was that even with this, there was still a big gap.

The martial arts decision arrived as promised.

The menial area and the outer gate are handled separately.

The open space in front of the rows of houses in the menial service area is the competition venue.

The outer sect has a special dueling arena, and there is not so much to be particular about during the Qi Refining Stage.

On the day of the competition, almost all the errand disciples were present. Yang Zhiyun came to find Mu Xiaofeng early. When he arrived at the venue, Mu Xiaofeng scanned the entire square and saw about five or six hundred people. The largest number of people were below the third floor.

On the stage in front was the deacon Li Jie who had originally brought Mu Xiaofeng here.

"Everyone be quiet."

"I will preside over the martial arts competition in the menial service area." Li Jie saw that everyone had quieted down.

"There are exactly forty people who signed up for the Miscellaneous District Martial Arts Competition, so we will have two rounds to decide the top ten. The opponents will be decided by drawing lots. After the top ten are decided, we will draw lots again to decide the first place."

After Li Jie finished speaking, seeing that no one had any objection, he continued.

"I have forty lots here. Those who draw the same number will be grouped together. By the way, let me tell you the rules. The martial arts duel will be held on this stage. If you admit defeat or are forced off the stage, you lose. You cannot kill people during the martial arts duel, but there are no restrictions on other means."

After saying that, he ordered someone to take out a huge box and said while looking at the box.

"Everyone who registered, come and take a lottery ticket. Don't come one by one randomly."

The people in the audience did not dare to act recklessly. Mu Xiaofeng observed that the people who took the lottery tickets were basically at the ninth level of Qi Refining. There were only four or five at the eighth level, and the rest was himself, who was at the seventh level.

Mu Xiaofeng followed the others and picked a number. He opened it and saw that it was number 17.

"The one who draws number one, come up." After saying that, two people who were at the ninth level of Qi Refining came up on the stage.

"Brother Zhao, I'm sorry." One of them bowed and took out a sword.

The man surnamed Zhao also took out a knife, and soon the two of them started fighting.

Mu Xiaofeng looked at it for a while and felt that it was uninteresting. This also gave Mu Xiaofeng a clear understanding of the strength of the ninth level of Qi Refining.

There was nothing outstanding in the first ten games, which greatly boosted Mu Xiaofeng's confidence. This made Mu Xiaofeng feel that the ninth level of Qi Refining was nothing special.

But Mu Xiaofeng soon realized that he should not underestimate anyone.
