Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation with the game panel

Elder Xuan, who was disheartened, looked at Xuan Zhengqing's determined eyes, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat: "But the sect competition is a competition of the overall strength of the sect. If those people hadn't left, we might not have fallen too far behind in ranking if we had fought hard, but now..."

He did not say the rest of the words, but looked at the only remaining disciple of the sect behind him, shook his head and sighed again.

Xuan Zhengqing clenched his fists and said nothing.

Three months later, the immortal cultivation world held a sect competition and readjusted the sect rankings based on their strength.

This competition was held in the Golden Flame Sect. The Taixu Sect had declined, and now the most recognized strongest sect was the Golden Flame Sect. The Huanyue Sect followed closely behind, also wanting to compete for the position of the number one sect.

All the major sects in the world of immortal cultivation gathered together, but no one came from the Taixu Sect, which was once the number one sect. Instead, the Jinyan Sect sat in the chief seat.

The rules of the sect competition are: each sect selects 200 of its strongest fighters to fight one-on-one with other sects, and the results are decided by drawing lots.

The cultivation levels of the remaining disciples of the Shenxiao Sect are uneven. Except for dozens of elders headed by Elder Xuan, the combat power of the others is basically not good enough.

Others were not optimistic about the Shenxiao Sect either, and they all discussed, "Although the Shenxiao Sect is not as miserable as the Taixu Sect, it is not much better. The Chaos Massacre killed nearly 50% of the disciples. Now some have left and some have stayed. It is not easy to gather 200 high-level fighters to participate in the sect competition."

"Yes, it's really sad. Previously, the Shenxiao Sect could at least be ranked in the top eight, but now, I'm afraid it can't even be ranked in the top thirty-six..."

These people did not avoid talking to the people from the Shenxiao Sect, as if the Shenxiao Sect was no longer worth their attention.

In the first round, the Shenxiao Sect drew a low-level, second-rate sect. There were no Immortal King-level warriors on the opposite side, only dozens of Cave Void Realm warriors. The Shenxiao Sect had already crushed the other side just by looking at their combat power.

But obviously, people from other sects did not expect that the Shenxiao Sect, which only has a few thousand people now, actually has so many high-level combat forces.

"I heard that most of the disciples of Shenxiao Sect had left, but now it seems that there are still many high-level fighters. It is true that even a centipede is still alive even after death..."

This battle was almost a unilateral crushing victory for the Shenxiao Sect. Although this result was already expected by everyone, they never imagined that the battle would end so quickly and so easily.

After all, Xuan Zhengqing was the only one who took action in this battle. Before the others even made a move, all two hundred people on the opposite side had been knocked off the stage.

This made the people from other sects sit up straighter and their expressions no longer as casual as before.

They could see clearly just now that Xuan Zhengqing and his sword were so powerful that no one could stop him. The overwhelming sword intent descended from the sky, as if it was wrapped in a thousand pounds of force, and instantly drove everyone off the stage.

The mighty sword energy and dazzling spiritual power intertwined with each other and lingered on the field for a long time.

"Is this a secret technique?" someone exclaimed.

"Yes, this level of sword secrets is really...amazing..."

On the tenth day of the sect competition, the top ten sects had already been identified.

The rankings of other sects were okay, except for the Shenxiao Sect, a low-level sect that was previously determined by everyone to not even make it into the top 36, which actually fought its way into the top ten.

At this moment, everyone in the Shenxiao Sect looked heroic and high-spirited. Elder Xuan had a look of satisfaction on his face. He was already satisfied to be in the top ten. After all, the Shenxiao Sect had only been fluctuating between eighth and sixth place before.

In the seating area, some people who had left the Shenxiao Sect felt mixed emotions.

When Xuan Yue was here, Xuan Zhengqing's brilliance was completely overshadowed by him, so that they didn't even know that Xuan Zhengqing's current attainments in the way of the sword had actually reached a level that was beyond the reach of others.

He stood there with a sword, like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, with the momentum of one man blocking the pass from ten thousand.

The ranking competition within the top ten lasted for three days.

The last day was the first sect battle between Shenxiao Sect and Jinyan Sect.

But the day before, when the Shenxiao Sect and the Huanyue Sect were fighting, the battle was very difficult. Many elders were injured and temporarily unable to fight.

To the extent that when the Shenxiao Sect faced off against the Jinyan Sect, it had to use some low-level combat forces to make up the numbers.

The arena was huge, and both teams were overwhelming in terms of momentum alone.

When the battle reached the middle stage, half of the disciples from the Jinyan Sect were still on the field, while only Xuan Zhengqing was left from the Shenxiao Sect.

Xuan Zhengqing raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his lips. When he raised his eyes to look across, the fighting spirit in his eyes was frightening.

It seemed as if he was not here to fight for the first place in the sect, but to fight for a chance of survival in the realm of the dead. He was like a pupil appearing faintly in the darkness, or like a sharp blade hanging high in the sky, causing people to feel inexplicably oppressed.

The leader of the Jinyan Sect swallowed his saliva and then summoned everyone to form a battle array. Before the formation was formed, Xuan Zhengqing's figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.

"He's going to use his secret technique!" The people in the seating area were very excited. Xuan Zhengqing's self-created sword technique shined in this sect competition, and everyone was deeply impressed by it.

"The Huanyue Sect was also defeated by this secret technique. Otherwise, it would be hard to say who would win..."

"The last person who could suddenly comprehend such a powerful secret technique was Immortal Xuan Yue. I have to say that the Xuan family is really lucky. First there was Xuan Yue, and then there was Xuan Zhengqing. I thought the Shenxiao Sect would wither away, but who could have expected that it would actually reach a higher level?"

"With this secret skill alone, even if the Shenxiao Sect only has a thousand people, no one would have any objection to it being firmly in the top ten. But being second... I'm afraid some people would not accept it."

"Yes, the ranking of sects naturally depends on the overall strength of the sect. Even if Xuan Zhengqing is very powerful, he is just one person. So what if he ranks second in the end? I'm afraid other sects may not recognize it."

At this time, the star general in the seating area was looking at Xuan Zhengqing's figure on the stage with burning eyes.

......

Just as everyone was discussing the matter, they were surprised to find that Xuan Zhengqing did not use the secret technique that they were familiar with before.

I saw a dazzling golden light rising from the high platform, and the vast power of the Immortal King spread out. Everyone on the stage was shrouded in the golden light, like a pillar of light reaching the sky.

Countless complex patterns quickly spread out on it, and the formation within it grew rapidly in a splitting manner, with one becoming two, two becoming four, and four becoming eight.

In this powerful symbol domain, formations are linked one after another, and if one step is wrong, all steps will go wrong, and danger is lurking everywhere.

Many people on the stage triggered the formation when they moved, and they vomited blood immediately. In order to avoid more serious consequences, they immediately crushed the jade beads and left the stage.
