The Sword Dynasty - 264. Chapter 263

On a high cliff, among the people standing and watching the sword meeting, there was a middle-aged Meixu official wearing a blue official uniform.

Seeing Ding Ning stepping into the blue palace, the thin master next to him seemed very pleased, unable to calmly say to him softly, “Master Sikong, only the last sword test is left.”

There was no serious injury in this crimson sea of thorns, and Lie Yinghong, who ranked first on the talent list, had already withdrawn from the sword meeting, coupled with Ding Ning’s horrible use of sword skills. , Even this scheming master thinks that Ding Ning is very likely to win in the final stage of the competition.

In the eyes of this master, Ding Ning’s first place is just a struggle of spirit. His talent may have already won the favor of many people in the Minshan Sword Sect. As long as he enters the top ten, he will definitely get the opportunity to study in the Minshan Sword Sect. , It is even possible to get personal guidance from some legendary characters. At that time, this overwhelmingly angry teenager may be able to get a little longer, and their attention to this teenager, it can even be said that the investment capital may get some return.

However, compared with his joy, the middle-aged U.S. official next to him, the deputy chief of Lisi, Sikonglian, looked even more melancholy.

Sikong Lian shook his head slightly, and said softly, “You don’t know enough about her.”

The master was startled, and immediately wanted to understand who S Konglian meant by “she”, and his body suddenly became cold and stiff.

“She never put eggs in a basket. In the past battles with the Han, Zhao, and Wei dynasties, the battles she presided over, even after hundreds of deductions, the snake swallows a frog as safe as a frog, she will stay. She has a strong backing. She is only in a different status now. If she carefully examines the school, as a general, she is truly a victorious general who has never failed in a battle.”

Sikong even took a deep breath and said in a heavy and slow voice, “Anyone can guess that Lie Yinghong is her person, so Lie Yinghong will not be her most relied pawn, except for this habit of doing things… the most important thing is. The thing is, who doesn’t know her coldness in the whole world?”

“The palace lady Rong was the one who worked for her. Since palace lady Rong expressed her intention that she did not want Ding Ning to pass this sword meeting, it was not just the manpower arranged by the lady in advance that prevented Ding Ning from winning, nor was it just the back hand she left behind. .”

After a pause, Sikonglian’s voice became slightly cold: “Many people will naturally respect her meaning and help her accomplish such things. Her coldness not only makes people feel that there is no problem if they don’t oppose her, but will Many people feel that if they don’t help her, they will be severely punished.”

Master Skinny’s heart is getting colder and colder. This is a very simple cardinal question.

The fewer people on his side, the more brutal battles he will encounter in the next one-on-one sword test.

Even some candidates who had no hope of being promoted would fight desperately with Ding Ning because of the meaning expressed by the palace lady Rong.

There were not many friends standing next to Ding Ning.

Especially in the eyes of most people, many friends standing next to him find it difficult to pass this level.

…

Ding Ning walked into the blue palace. There was no furnishings in the blue palace. There was only a mossy stone path hovering in the center of the palace. The cool mountain breeze continued to flow down the stone path.

Ding Ning walked up the stone path slowly, and it took a long time to finally reach the exit.

The night is thick.

Outside the exit is the valley where they ate before.

In the humble shed, a few oil lamps were lit.

The flame of the oil lamp shone on his figure, making his shadow very lonely.

Ding Ning dragged a lonely shadow and walked into the shed. The food in the shed had been cleared. At this time, only some of the most common white gauze and some small but sharp steel needles were placed on the table.

Ding Ning took a steel needle, grilled it on the flame of the oil lamp for a while, then wiped off the smoke from the needle, and began to patiently and carefully pick out the broken wood thorns all over his body.

Jing Liuli’s figure appeared again on the cliff somewhere above that he couldn’t see.

She stared at Ding Ning for a long time, and the look of appreciation in her eyes became stronger and stronger.

The cleaner the wooden thorns are removed, the less burden the body will have in the next battle, and the easier the movements will be. Moreover, if these wooden thorns stay in the body for too long, they will inevitably cause other symptoms such as suppuration.

The process of picking out the wood thorns is not easy.

Picking out fine thorns under an oil lamp can be very exhausting, especially when the body is extremely tired. Such picking out of wood thorns will make people more tired. At the same time, every needle drop is actually a reminder of where the body is extremely Tingling, constant pain is also great for physical exhaustion.

However, Ding Ning could not see any anxiety at this time.

He chose extremely meticulously and patiently. Although Jing Liuli couldn’t see clearly, he could imagine that the wooden thorns that had fallen from the tip of the needle on the table in front of him had already piled up.

Geng Edge also looked at Ding Ning quietly in the dark.

He also made no secret of his appreciation for Ding Ning.

Many of the Minshan Sword Sects of their level can get into the eyes of Minshan Sword Sect, and get their attention or even appreciation. There may not be one or two students selected for many years.

It’s just that Geng Blade didn’t conceal his worry at all at this time.

He is also worried about the issue of the final base.

There are too few people on Ding Ning’s side, and the rules are the rules. Since the rules of the Sword Society have been established, even the Jing Liuli who set the rules of the Sword Society cannot be changed.

It is late at night.

Most of the teachers from the training grounds who watched the Sword Society on the cliff did not rest. Even the teachers who had been eliminated from their own training grounds were still paying close attention to every fragment in the crimson sea of thorns.

Among the three true disciples in the true sense of Baiyangdong, Shen Yi has already withdrawn. Except for Ding Ning, only Zhang Yi is left at this time.

In the eyes of almost all the teachers in the various practice places, Zhang Yi’s situation at this time was also extremely bad.

Unlike most students, Zhang Yi did not choose to walk in the stream or along the sides of the stream, but chose to walk through the thorny bushes.

He is not as fast as Lie Yinghong and so good at weaving soft armor, but he also doesn’t want more and more wooden thorns to penetrate his body, making his injuries more and more serious, and making himself more and more serious. The weaker.

So he chose to draw the sword and cut the thorns forward.

The sword he was holding at the moment was Zhao Jianlu’s hottest sword. The powerful heat naturally emitted made the thorny wood in front of him dry and brittle. It can be said that this place is the most suitable sword for opening a way forward.

However, his movements are always fast.

He always used a very fast speed to walk through this sea of thorns.

Maintaining a fast rate of continuous swords, even if the opponent is just grass and trees, there is no need to use true yuan at all, any swordsman will be very tired.

At this moment, Zhang Yi was sore all over, and bursts of intense fatigue continued to hit him like a tide, making him really hard to load, and the sword in his hand was as heavy as a mountain, and it became heavier and heavier.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yi felt some unusual movements in the surrounding wilderness.

Whether it is some ground tremors, the slight chill in the wind blowing on him from a distance, and the abnormal turbulence, they remind him that there is already a lot in this seemingly calm crimson sea of thorns. He doesn’t want to see it but soon Changes to be faced.

He is usually courteous and cautious. In the eyes of many people, he is an abnormal mother-in-law and hesitant to do things. However, any teacher familiar with him in Baiyangdong knows that he is also an extremely intelligent person like Ding Ning.

He also saw from the beginning that the stream was too silent and contained too many dangers, so he chose to walk directly among the thorns. At the same time, he did not impose a time limit on this level, inferring that even if he is more cautious , Even if he concealed his trail and carefully passed through here, there would definitely be something to find, so he kept walking through this sea of thorns at an extremely fast speed.

It’s just that this sea of thorns is too big, and there is a magic circle, which makes it extremely difficult for him to accurately grasp the straight forward route. Up to this time, although he has not directly encountered any danger, but the blue palaces in his eyes It’s still very far away, and in the surrounding wilderness, terrible changes are already happening everywhere.

He intuitively felt that some candidates had been eliminated.

At the same time, he intuitively felt that those terrible things had begun to hunt and search for candidates like him.

Perceiving the terrible movements in the surrounding wilderness, Zhang Yi looked at his hands that were shaking like very old people even though they were not exerting much effort. He took a deep breath, was silent for a moment, and then made the first step. A move that most teachers in the various practice places on the cliff had never thought of.

With a long sword in his hand, he cleared a space enough for a person to lie down. He slapped the ground firmly with a long sword in his hand, steamed the water to dryness, and turned the ground into a very hard dry ground. Then he lay down and kneaded himself. The most sore right arm for a moment, then closed his eyes and started to sleep.

“What does he mean?”

“Even if you are really tired, how can you sleep in this situation?”

“Is he not aware of the movement of these zergs?”

Some teachers in the practice area didn’t know what he was doing at first, and after finally determined that he had fallen into a deep sleep soon, several people couldn’t help but utter incomprehensible exclamations.

“Very bold.”

On the side of the cliff top, there was a very gentle sound, which made people feel the spring breeze blowing, and a very comfortable sound sounded.

The person who made this sound, Huang Zhenwei, who was wearing a pale yellow dress, shook his head slightly with emotion, “Really bold.”

His status in Changling is extremely noble, and there are naturally very few people who can stand near him.

It’s just that everyone who heard his voice could hear that his words were praise rather than scolding.

Tantai Guanjian stood at the top of a cyan palace in the sea of thorns at this time. He couldn’t help but feel a little emotional when he saw Zhang Yi’s behavior.

These disciples in Baiyangdong are indeed very interesting.

Even Zhang Yi, the most cautious and hesitant in the rumors, is actually quite unusual.

Zhang Yi slept extremely sweetly. Because of his exhaustion, he even made some snoring noises… He just fell asleep and did nothing. However, when he fell asleep, he also firmly attracted many people on the cliff. Gaze.

There was a group of imperial worms that had swallowed Xuan Frost insects, swimming like a real ranger in the thorn bushes not far from him.

Even the closest time to him was only less than half a mile away.

As long as Zhang Yi’s existence is discovered, Zhang Yi will directly suffer heavy losses in his sleep and quit this sword meeting.

However, Zhang Yi won the bet.

This group of imperial insects passed him by.

After two hours of deep sleep, Zhang Yi opened his eyes and woke up.
