Chapter 439

Although the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is important in the celebration of the 400th anniversary of the Zhou family, there are not many monks who can really go to the scene to watch the ceremony.

But the "treasure hunt" is different.

The Zhou family has no restrictions on the accomplishments of monks participating in the "treasure hunt". Any friar under the age of 60 can sign up for a number plate as long as he symbolically pays a piece of inferior spirit stone, and then match according to the number plate drawn by lot for a separate duel. The winner enters the next round until the top 20 are determined.

By the time Zhou Yang and his important figures came from Chihu mountain to the martial arts competition field specially prepared by the Zhou family at the foot of the mountain, more than 20000 immortals had gathered here.

"This competition field has been reinforced by the array arranged by Zhou Guangxiang, the head of our Zhou family and the fourth-order array master, and has a special array for protection. After you go to the competition field, you friars can use your spells and tools to fight."

"However, I need to remind all Taoist friends that although the foundation building friar of my Zhou family will take care of you when fighting, you can't guarantee that you can save you in time. Therefore, if you find that you are defeated by your opponent, you'd better take the initiative to admit defeat."

"Once one party takes the initiative to admit defeat, the other party must not start again, otherwise it will not only immediately cancel the results and deprive the qualification to participate, but also be listed as an unwelcome person by our Zhou family and refuse to enter any oasis and square city of our Zhou family!"

"In addition, the second-order talisman can be used in the competition, but it is strictly prohibited to use the third-order talisman, third-order puppet beast and other things beyond the strength of the Qi training period. Violators will be disqualified and disqualified!"

"Finally, although we will not test the bone age of the winners now, if the monks who finally won the top 20 want to receive a reward from our Zhou family, they must pass the bone age test to prove that their age really meets the requirements before giving a reward, and punish those who try to muddle through with the punishment of abolishing cultivation, so if any of you are lucky, It's better to return the number plate in your hand now! "

On a huge square martial arts competition field covered by a khaki mask, Zhou Tongming, deputy hall leader of Zhou Jiazhan hall, is announcing the rules of fighting outside the field to those who sign up for the "treasure hunt".

According to Zhou Yang's request, the two "treasure grabbing conferences" will be held without any identity restrictions first, and then it will be the turn of the friars of the Zhou family.

This arrangement, of course, is to enable the friars of the Zhou family to increase their fighting experience and understand their shortcomings by watching the fighting methods of outsiders, so as to have a more eye-catching performance in the next fighting methods.

Soon after Zhou Tongming announced the rules of fighting, the "treasure hunt" competition officially began because of the arrival of Zhou Yang and others.

Originally, there were more than 12000 monks who signed up for the "treasure hunt", but after Zhou Tongming's last warning, as many as thousands of lucky people were scared to give up their number plates.

To verify whether a person is over the age of 60, only the friars in the foundation period need to perform a special third-order inferior spell "touching the bone".

These people who gave up originally thought that it was impossible for the Zhou family to carry out the "bone touching" test for everyone. Only then did they take a chance to gamble. Even if they were found, they just insisted that they might remember the wrong age, which was disqualification at most.

But they did not expect that the Zhou family would punish those who intended to muddle through by abolishing cultivation.

For an immortal, probably no punishment is more serious than this, and no one really dares to gamble his life at this risk.

At this time, after Zhou Tongming announced the start of the "treasure hunt", he immediately read out the names of the friars of the first team according to the lottery number plate.

"Zhang Meng, No. 1312 in group A, against Yang Fei, No. 421 in group B!"

At that time, a powerful and tall middle-aged man with seven layers of Qi training and a beautiful middle-aged female monk with eight layers of Qi training walked into the martial arts arena through the array shield, then reported their names and origins, and directly released their magic weapons to fight.

Because of the low mana of the friars during the Qi training period, the fighting time will not be too long. In addition, due to the space constraints, it is impossible for someone to drag time by moving.

So just in the past 30 days, Zhang Meng, who was mighty and tall, was pierced by a gold hairpin from the middle-aged female Xiuyang Fei's imperial envoy, and put the tip of the needle against his chest.

"Fairy good means, Zhang admit defeat!"

He looked at the gold hairpin in front of his chest. Zhang Meng, a powerful man, didn't waste much time. He directly admitted defeat, put away his magic weapons and walked down the challenge arena.

Next, the friars of the second team who were read the number plate and name immediately jumped into the competition field.

Although, the fighting methods of these low-level friars during the Qi training period are full of mistakes and omissions in the eyes of friars of Zifu such as Zhou Yang, which are not worth mentioning and are somewhat insipid.

But the monks in the Qi training period under the stage saw it with interest, and cheers came from time to time. They were never tired of seeing it, and did not care about the passage of time.

In this way, two days later, all the friars in the first round competed and determined more than 5000 people to qualify.

Then another day passed, and the second round was finished, with more than 2000 qualified.

The next day, after the third and fourth rounds, only more than 600 people were qualified to continue to participate.

When half of the sixth day of the competition passed, all the top 20 were finally selected.

As Zhou Yang expected, of the top 20 monks, 16 were from various immortal families. There were only four monks who came from scattered practice.

Naturally, all of these monks who can enter the top 20 are practicing Qi and nine levels of cultivation.

Because they had been fighting for five consecutive days, the 20 people were a little tired. Therefore, they were given two hours of rest before the final finals.

At this time, Zhou Yang, who had not spoken much, suddenly looked at friars Chen Ping'an and said with a smile: "Chen Daoyou, Nie Daoyou and Yan Daoyou, who do you think will be the first this time?"

The three people he named were all the heads of the purple family, and their families had younger generations who reached the top 20, including two from the Chen family and two from the Yan family.

"Although there is a suspicion of boasting, Yan believes that the person who finally won the first place must be Yan Shuanghua of my Yan Family!"

While Chen Ping'an and Nie Qiufeng are still considering how to answer Zhou Yang's words, Yan Nantian, the master of the Yan family, is full of confidence to support his children.

Speaking of it, Zhou Yang and the Yan Family in huohuling have also dealt with each other.

When he was in the foundation period, he was summoned by Xiao Bufan, a monk of the purple house of the yellow sand gate, using the "seven colors of clouds and smoke" for help. When he was summoned in the sand sea, he fought hand in hand with a Yan monk named Yan Yunfei. Later, he was recruited by Xiao Bufan to Chihu mountain oasis to protect the yellow sand gate.

Unfortunately, Yan Yunfei was unlucky. When the golden winged thunder Eagle attacked chihushan oasis, he unfortunately fell here.

Now Yan Nantian, according to his age and generation, should still be Yan Yunfei's nephew.

"Yan Dao is friendly and confident, but Chen is also more optimistic about Chen Yunsheng of my Chen family."

Chen Ping'an came back at this time, and also supported his younger generation with a smile.

"NIE is not as confident as the two Taoist friends. In the previous battle, Nie has seen that with the strength of Nie Hansha, whether he can enter the top three depends on luck. He can't compare with the genius of the two Taoist friends!"

Nie Qiufeng shook his head and whispered these words with a touch of bitterness around his mouth.

The "treasure hunting meeting" of the Zhou family has attracted the attention of the younger generation of friars in the boundless sand sea cultivation world. These families also want to take this opportunity to let their excellent descendants come out to see the world and see if they can get the award of foundation Dan.

But now the younger generation who has high hopes in his family obviously lags behind the other two younger generations of Zifu family in strength, which makes Nie Qiufeng feel better.

Although the strength does not mean everything, in today's "treasure hunt", the weak will lose an opportunity to get the foundation Dan and an opportunity that may affect a lifetime.

At this time, Zhou Yang, who asked, smiled calmly and said, "those Taoist friends might as well make a bet with Zhou. Let's each give a third-order treasure as a bet on a friar. If who wins in the end, how about this bet as a special reward for that friar?"

"Oh, who does Zhou Daoyou want to bet?"

Chen Ping'an's eyes flashed and looked at Zhou Yang with bright eyes.

"Don't say that Zhou doesn't give a few Taoist friends face, Zhou will press the scattered repair Li Hong to win the first place!"

Zhou Yang's face flashed with a smile, and he also said that he was optimistic about him.

"As soon as he broke up his practice, he was so valued by Taoist Zhou. It seems that Chen was wrong!"

Chen Ping'an was surprised and looked at a middle-aged man in black robe who was closing his eyes and recuperating under the martial arts competition field. That man was sanxiu Li Hong in the mouth of Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang refused to say anything more, but asked with a smile, "how about it? How many Taoist friends bet? "

"It's just a third-order treasure. Since Zhou Daoyou has this elegant interest, Chen is naturally willing to accompany him."

Chen Ping'an took back his eyes, nodded slightly and answered immediately.

Then Yan Nantian said confidently, "Yan also gambled."

"Although NIE is not optimistic about my younger generation, people fight for a breath. It's just a third-order treasure. Nie will not be disappointed." Nie Qiufeng pondered a little and answered with a smile.

"Well, let's wait and see."

Zhou Yang smiled with satisfaction and decided on the spot.

Then he glanced at another silent person not far away. That person was Zhang Yunpeng, the current leader of Huangsha sect.

The "treasure hunt" was also attended by the monks of the yellow sand gate, but they were just ordinary disciples with little strength. No one came here for those really powerful Qi training monks of the yellow sand gate.

The reason Zhou Yang also knows is that Zhang Yunpeng doesn't want those people to come.

Huangsha sect is not short of building Jidan now. As long as some gifted monks can easily get building Jidan from the sect.

According to Zhou Yang, in the past 20 years, the number of monks who have successfully built a new foundation in Huangsha gate has reached 30. It can be seen how much capital Zhang Yunpeng has put in.

"Families and sects are different after all. Even if the Huangsha gate is declining, it can open its door to attract talents from outside. It's not afraid that someone will turn against the guest."

"On the contrary, our families should be careful to recruit a monk, for fear of raising unfamiliar white eyed wolves."

"Many young monks with good strength have emerged in this treasure hunt. The Zhou family can take advantage of this opportunity to investigate and recruit more redundant people, so as to enrich the number of combatants among the bottom friars of the family."

Zhou Yang's heart moved, but he came up with another idea. Then, even if it was transmitted to the patriarch Zhou Guangxiang, he asked the nuns in the family who wanted to recruit a son-in-law to gather together. After the "treasure hunt" was over, he took this opportunity to hold another son-in-law recruitment meeting to see if he could catch some potential golden turtles and sons-in-law.
