Chapter 38 Ringing the Bell

The ranking competition between villages is hot, and each competition is very wonderful. The competition between the masters is indeed very fierce. It's just that many people are a little sorry that they can't see Gongsun Xuan. You know, the shock brought by Gongsun Xuan can be said to be the biggest in the whole martial arts competition.

It is very difficult to practice martial arts. Even if the island, a holy place of martial arts, has promoted martial arts to a very high level. For thousands of years, except for a few qualifications and their amazing ones, it has not taken decades to cultivate to the innate realm.

Promotion to the innate realm requires a huge true qi as a backing. However, the cultivation of true qi requires efforts overnight. However, there are also people who practice their true qi much faster because their skills are relatively advanced. But no one can break through before the age of 20. In thousands of years, the most outstanding one broke through at the age of 25.

To break through to the innate realm, it is necessary to open up the two veins of Rendu in the body, and the true qi will form a cycle in it. However, this second vein of Rendu is not so easy to get through. If there is a slight error, the meridians will be damaged, and it will be difficult to make progress in the future. The heavy one caused the rupture of the meridians, and from then on, it was disabled and could no longer practice martial arts. I don't know how many people are trapped at this level.

A few days later, the competition for the ranking between villages ended. This time, Wangjia Village won the first place, the second place is Xujia Village, and the third place is Baijia Village...

Wang Jiacun won the first place, which many people did not expect before the conference. The appearance of Gongsun Xuan shocked everyone.

Wangjiacun won the first place, and the happiest was Wang Mu. He looked like he had won the first place for Wangjiacun. The reason why he is happy is that this harvest is really too big. He bet on more than a dozen villages, just a few hundred pills. Can he not be happy? Not to mention that there are many village martial arts secrets.

When the fat man in Yanjia Village saw Wang Xueyou go to collect the elixir, he couldn't wait to tear him up, but it was a hindrance to his reputation and handed over the elixir very painfully.

There was also a village. When he saw Wang Mu go to collect the elixir, he stared at him angrily. Wang Mu did not lag behind. He puffed up his small eyes and stared back at him.

The ranking competition between villages is over, which means that the martial arts competition has also ended. Those who lost the election were dejected one by one. Those who were selected are very happy.

At this moment, the martial arts competition has ended, and the rewards of each village will be awarded by people from the Holy Land in a month. The participants of each village also followed their respective village heads to prepare to go back to the village. Those who have obtained the qualification to enter the Holy Land also follow back to their respective villages at this time. They only need to enter the Holy Land to sign up within a month. If you don't enter the Holy Land within a month, you will be regarded as giving up this opportunity, and you may never have a chance to enter the Holy Land again.

Before leaving, Wang Mu looked at Gongsun Xuan's eyes, full of encouragement. Gongsun Xuan knew that he hoped that he could successfully complete the three questions and become a registered disciple of the elders.

He doesn't care about these. He stayed just to see how difficult these three questions were.

Elder Mu stood on the stone platform, behind him, 15 old men stood behind him.

Gently took a step and came to the edge of the stone platform and looked at the people under the stage.

"Not bad." Elder Mu was very satisfied in his eyes.

"Guys, you all have a chance. If anyone can complete two of the three questions I gave, I will accept him as a registered disciple, and he will follow me to the temple to practice." Elder Mu said this to the first master in each village.

As soon as he finished his words, those people were all very excited. Although the registered disciple is very different from the official disciple. However, the benefits of being able to enter the Holy Land and become a registered disciple of the elder in the future are immeasurable. For these martial arts idiots, as long as they have the opportunity to learn martial arts, they don't care about anything else.

These people, the youngest, are also 60 years old. Originally, they were not qualified to enter the Holy Land. Even if they are now innate masters of the realm, they have missed the opportunity for various reasons. You can only stay in your own village, become a master, and cultivate the next generation of young people for the village.

Now, as long as you can complete two of the three questions, you can enter the Holy Land and become a registered disciple of the elder. This is a great happy event. The old faces were very excited, rubbing their hands and eager to try.

At their age, which one can be promoted to the innate realm is not qualified and intelligent. In their hearts, they all understand that these three topics are not so easy. However, for the dream in my heart, I decided to fight for it.

"Good. Since you all want to try, follow me." Elder Mu turned around and leaped deep into a valley without looking back.

Seeing Elder Mu leave, they quickly followed each other and exerted their light skills to the limit, for fear that they would fall behind and lose this opportunity.

Looking at these old men rushing to catch up, and there is no demeanor of the first master at all, Gongsun Xuan smiled bitterly.

He sighed and jumped up and followed. In his mind, he actually wants to know how difficult those three topics are.

In the depths of the valley, the terrain is undulating, and it is full of fog and overgrown with weeds.

At the foot of the mountain, a stream mewerps through, I don't know where it leads, and the water is gurgling.

Dozens of figures flew by, but slightly bent the half-meter-high weeds and were not trampled down.

Gongsun Xuan was so fast that he soon caught up with the crowd. When he arrived, he found that these people had stopped moving forward and seemed to have reached their destination.

Elder Mu stood in the front, beside him, with a huge stone, which was framed by a wooden shelf. The boulder is hanging in the air. If you look carefully, you will find that this boulder is a little different. At the bottom of it, it was hollowed out. That is to say, what hangs there is a boulder that has been hollowed out. It looks like a clock.

Behind the elder Mu, there is a pool of water, thick water vapor emerging from it.

"Today's three questions are actually very simple. That's ringing the bell.

"Ring the bell?" Everyone's heart moved and looked like the hanging stone. It seems that the stone bell is going to be ringed. However, there is only one stone bell here, and there are three titles. It seems that there are other things hidden here.

These shrewd old guys keep turning their eyes.

"Is it..."

Except for the stone bell, there is only a pool behind the wooden elder and the fog in the valley.

"Hmm. This stone clock is the first level. The rest are the water clock and fog clock. As long as some of you can ring the bell with your own skills, you can become a registered disciple of the old man and enter the holy place with him. Elder Mu took everyone's look and was very satisfied. However, his eyes were mainly shrouded in Gongsun Xuan. He wanted to know if this amazing teenager could ring more than two bells.

"Ah!" Everyone was shocked.

Sure enough, these three questions are really difficult.

This stone clock is the easiest to pass. People here, no matter who, can easily ring it.

And the water clock at the second level, maybe someone can ring it. But I'm afraid that no one can ring the fog bell in the third level.

This stone clock exists as an object, which is very easy. But it's also difficult. The stone bell is naturally made of stone. With the strength of everyone present, it can be easily broken with one punch. However, now it's not to break it, but to knock it off. Among them, it depends on how people grasp their own power.

And the water clock is **. If you want to ring it, you must first draw water from the pool and shape it into a clock. As for whether it can be ringed, I don't know.

And the fog, as a gas, is difficult to shape it into a clock, let alone ring.

These three questions are really more difficult than the other.

Everyone was silent.

Elder Mu didn't say anything. He got out of his way and stood on one side and looked at the crowd quietly, waiting for everyone to ring the bell.

Oh, an old figure came out. This person wears a white robe and is straight, like a sword. He has seen this man. The master of Baijia Village is as unfathomable as Xu Zheng.

For Xu Zheng, Gongsun Xuan had to marvel at his cultivation, especially under that knife, he was powerless to resist at all. If he hadn't suddenly entered the mysterious realm and blocked him with that punch, he would have been defeated by his knife.

This man walked to Shi Zhong and stretched out his thin hands. His index finger was side by side with his middle finger, and he clicked on the stone clock like lightning.

"Dong."

The stone bell was actually rang by him. Although the stone bell was ringed, it hung there and did not move.

"Good. Old Bai, your sword is really powerful. Some people in the crowd laughed and praised.

"I didn't expect his swordsmanship to reach this level. The sword just now was really fast. Even he and I are not sure enough to catch it. It seems that I still underestimated these old guys. However, why did these old guys give up fighting against me so easily in the game? Gongsun Xuan secretly guessed in his heart.

In the competition for the village ranking, he played a total of four games, and all the other villages gave up competing with him. He was also puzzled.

After the old man rang the stone bell, he did not stop. He walked to the pool and was slightly silent for a while. Then he made a move towards the pool, and with his move, a stream of water flew out of the pool and gathered in his hand. Grabbing this ball of water, the old man Bai did not immediately shape it into a bell, but thought about it. It seems that he is not sure to shape the water mass in his hand into a bell now.

For a long time, he threw the ball of water in his hand into the air.

Everyone couldn't help sighing for him, but they didn't expect him to give up so soon.

However, the old man Bai did not leave. He suddenly raised his hand, and a sword spirit emanated from his fingers, piercing the scattered water mass in the air. Under the impact of countless swords, the thrown water mass actually formed the appearance of a clock when it fell.

Taking this opportunity, the old man Bai rose into the air and pointed to the "clock".

"Ding."

A crisp sound spread in the valley.

Everyone looked at the falling drops of water in the air in astonishment.

A second after the white old ghost rang the "bell", the "clock" scattered. It seems that he didn't withstand the blow of the old white ghost.

The white old ghost fell gently on the ground, but his eyes looked at Elder Mu, as if waiting for his answer.

Elder Mu looked at the old white ghost and nodded slightly, "That's good. You have passed. With your strength, you are indeed qualified to be my disciple.

"Ah!" Some people in the crowd exclaimed secretly, and their eyes were full of envy. But as an old ghost who has lived for decades, their hearts are very stable. I didn't make a fool of anything.

After getting the affirmation of Elder Mu, the white old ghost was slightly happy. But soon he calmed down again. He still wants to try this third bell.

With the passage of time, the old white ghost has been standing there, and no one else has come forward to test it. It seems that they are waiting for the old white ghost to ring the third bell. During this period, the old white ghost also looked up at the fog and seemed to be ready to knock, but soon he did not move.

I don't know how difficult this third clock is compared with the first two.

After all, water is still stylish. As long as people with profound skills can absorb it. As for shaping it into a clock, it depends on their respective skills.

And the fog is just a gas, and a little action will disperse it. It is difficult to gather this thing, let alone condense it.

"Hey." For a long time, the old man Bai sighed, shook his head and walked into the crowd.

He gave up like this.

Seeing that the old man Bai gave up ringing the third bell, many people were a little disappointed. They all wanted to learn from the experience of old man Bai. However, although the old man Bai did not ring the third bell, he met the condition. Some people can't help but want to try.

Not long after the old man Bai returned to the crowd, a short but strong old man came out.

The old man has a eight-character beard and is swaying when walking. His face is facing up, which seems to be a proud person.

Before he walked to the stone bell, he slapped the fan-sized palm, which was a slap on the stone bell.

His palm rubbed against the air, and he faintly heard a sound of friction, which showed how strong this palm was.

"Dong."

The stone bell rang, but it was not broken. Not even a piece of stone debris fell down.

With the sound, but the stone bell was shaken by this palm.

"Squeaky, creak." The wooden shelf was shaken.

Seeing that he succeeded, the old man raised his chin to the crowd, laughed and was very proud.

"This old ghost is still this bad temper. Let's see how your bell rings. Someone in the crowd was very unhappy to see the proud look of the old ghost Yun.

The old ghost walked to the pool, raised his hand, and a ball of water flew into his hand. He learned from the old man Bai and threw the water mass into the air, and his palms quickly emitted a palm wind, trying to gather the water mass into a clock. However, under the wind of his palm, the water mass dispersed, forming a drop of water and fell from the air.

"Ah!" When the old ghost saw this, he was stunned for a moment. He was splashed by the beads of water on the spot, and his face was all wet.

Ah, haha. It's so funny." Someone burst out laughing in the crowd.

The old ghost's face suddenly turned blue, and then he stared at a pair of bull's eyes and looked at the smiling man fiercely.

"What, old ghost Yun, do you still want to vent your anger on me?"

"You..." The old ghost was angry and jumped up. He pointed his finger at the man, but he was speechless.

"What's wrong with me? At least I won't be embarrassed." The man didn't look at the old ghost, but looked elsewhere.

"Okay, that's good." It took a long time for the old ghost to calm down his anger, gasped, walked into the crowd, and casually found a stone platform to sit down. He stared at the man who laughed at him fiercely and didn't know what he thought.

After seeing the failure of the old ghost Yun, the crowd suddenly fell silent.

Soon, a tall and thin figure came out of the crowd, and this person was Xu Zheng.

He walked to the stone bell and easily rang it. After that, like the old man Bai, he used the knife gas to shape the water mass into a bell and ring it.

However, when he shaped the water ball into a clock, his means were much more skill than that of the old man Bai. Because he didn't directly carve the ball of water into a water clock with knife gas and then ring it.

After ringing the bell twice in a row, he did not ring the fog bell, but walked directly back to the crowd. It seems that he is not sure.

Seeing Xu Zheng's success, there were not only some ** in the crowd.

Three people, two of them succeeded. This is definitely an encouragement for others. Because the successful examples of the previous people have given them a lot of inspiration and experience.

As long as you ring the two bells in front of you, you can worship the wooden elder as your teacher. The most important thing is that you can enter the Holy Land and pursue a deeper martial arts.

So, a man came out and wanted to ring the two bells.

However, these two bells are not so easy to ring. When they were ringing the second bell, they failed.

Many people can't shape the water mass into a bell. Some people shaped the water mass into the shape of a clock, but it did not ring.

Soon, 45 people, only Gongsun Xuan did not try.

All the people looked at the teenager. We all look forward to him creating a miracle again.

The master wants to be the youngest here. Everyone here can be his grandfather. However, Gongsun Xuan's strength is stronger in this. After all, he can even defeat such a powerful person as Xu Zheng.

Now that Xu Zheng and Mr. Bai have rang the two bells in front of him, so with his strength, he should also ring these two bells. I don't know if he can ring the third bell.

Everyone is looking forward to it.

Looking at everyone shooting their eyes at him, Gongsun Xuan was slightly stunned and then a little helpless.

Even Elder Mu is looking forward to his achievements.

He sighed secretly and came out calmly. Originally, he just wanted to see what these three topics were, and he didn't want to do it himself at all. Now, everyone is looking forward to their miracle. If he doesn't go forward and ring the two bells in front of him, he is afraid that he will be scolded to death.

At the first bite of the clock, he gently punched.

"Dong."

The fist wind bombarded the stone bell, making a loud sound, echoing over the valley for a long time.

"Hmm." Elder Mu's eyes shrank slightly. He saw that Gongsun Xuan's punch had touched the punch. This seems to be the boxing of Xu Zheng's knife on the court that day. However, today's power seems to be much smaller than that of that day.

After ringing the first bell, Gongsun Xuan strode to the pool and meditated for a while. He reached out and sucked into the pool, and a stream of water followed him and gathered to the palm of his hand. As soon as the wrist turned, the water ball turned with the turn of the wrist and quickly formed a clock in the air. When the bell was formed, a chill spread and quickly froze the water clock. Now the water clock turned into an ice clock. He stretched out his other hand and flicked gently on the clock.

"Ding." A crisp sound came to everyone's ears.

"Wow. Damn it. That's also okay." Someone cursed in his heart. I regret that I didn't think of this method and missed this opportunity to enter the Holy Land.

Gongsun Xuan's hand is completely under the control of Zhenqi, pulling the water mass in the air with Zhenqi. Generally, people with profound skills can do it. And which of the people here is not a person with profound skills?

After ringing the second bell, Gongsun Xuan paused for a moment, looked at the fog on the pool, and thought for a moment.

Slowly stretched out his hand to the fog and opened his five fingers, as if he were holding something.

The true air in his body poured into his right arm and was dispersed into the air by his palm.

A chill spread. Slowly, the fog on the pool began to condense, and under the control of Gongsun Xuan, it slowly formed the appearance of a clock.

Other people on the shore looked at the condensing fog bell over the pool and opened their mouths one by one, which was very shocked. Although they expected Gongsun Xuan to bring them surprise and were all prepared, when the surprise really came, it was another expression.

Gongsun Xuan was also relieved to see that the fog was condensed into a bell under the control of his true qi. At the beginning, he was not sure whether he could form a fog bell. However, reality told him that he could really do it.

After the fog bell took shape, he flew up, punched out, and his fist hit the fog bell.

"Dong."

The melodious bells spread in the valley and echoed in everyone's ears.

This bell is the same as the real bell.

After ringing the fog bell, Gongsun Xuan's whole body fell into the pool. Just as he was about to fall into the water, he took a deep breath and gently put his feet on the surface of the water. With this power, his whole body flew up again. Gently landed on the shore.

And the water is filled with layers of ripples.

Silent. Everyone looked at the teenager quietly.

"Hey. Old. We are all old."

A melodious sigh resounded in the valley.
