"Big brother Bao, you said that this《 Diamond Force Codex》 is not complete yet? Could it be because the Nine Dragon Sect is forbidden from passing its cultivation technique to outsiders, that's why they held back? " Tie Lang took over the two handwritten volumes of the《 Diamond Force Codex》, and asked doubtfully.
"Where is it?" How could the sect hold back against the orders of the Grand Elder? Furthermore, this was originally not a secret manual passed down from the Nine Dragons Sect, but was obtained by the Great Clan Elder. "
"Oh? What's going on? "
"This …?" Fine! In truth, this was already considered an open secret among the five major sects of Jincheng City. Besides, Grand Elder also had his instructions, which was to tell the truth to the Iron Wolf brothers. Do you know that Jincheng organizes the elites of the younger generation to go on an adventure every five years? "
Tie Lang shook his head.
"Yes." Bao Yifan had already guessed that Iron Wolf would not be aware of this matter. Then he continued, "The five major sects of Jincheng City have all been training here for the past hundred years, and the young elites of the major sects have been training here for nearly a hundred years. And this《 Diamond Force Codex》 was comprehended by the Great Elder when he participated in Jin Cheng's adventure forty years ago! "
"What?" "One can actually study training manuals?" Tie Lang could not help but say.
"That's right!" There was an extremely strange place where he was training in. There were quite a few strange, ancient, murals. Grand Elder had studied the《 Diamond Force Codex》 from a mural after he had arrived there. However, according to him, he had not fully comprehended it. In the beginning, this was only the Nine Dragons Sect's secret. After the Great Elder, every Nine Dragons Sect disciple would head to that secret place to study. But later on, other sects also had disciples who participated in the experiential learning enter the secret place one after another. Some people were able to figure out this secret place, and there were also people who were able to comprehend some secret books. So right now, even though the five major sects and the various powers in the City Lord's Palace are not speaking about it, they already clearly know what this so-called experiential learning is. "
"Oh!" So that's how it is? " Tie Lang nodded, as if he understood something.
"Of course, it's not like anyone would be able to comprehend a secret scripture so easily. Only a talented genius would be able to do such a thing. Now, this matter had become a secret shared by the few major sects in Jincheng. If this secret were to be leaked, it would definitely attract a lot of attention and cause a lot of controversy. So, the Iron Wolf brothers still need to keep this secret for their own sake! "
"Since this secret is so important, why did Big Brother Bao want to tell me about it?"
"That's because the Great Elder has sent a message back, hoping that Brother Tie Lang will join Nine Dragons Gate and participate in this expedition!" Perhaps, with the comprehension ability of the Iron Wolf brothers, we can obtain a greater harvest! "
"Join the Nine Dragons Sect? This would definitely not do. Although Great Elder and I can be considered to have some contacts, I still have other matters to attend to and would not consider joining the sect. " Tie Lang shook his head as he answered.
"Little brother, you misunderstand! It's not that I want you to join the Nine Dragons Sect, it's just to represent the sect and participate in the experiential learning. This might be a good opportunity for you! Firstly, he would be able to compete with the young elites of Jincheng City, and secondly, he would also have the opportunity to go to the secret location to study. Maybe you can completely comprehend the [Diamond Force Canon] in your hands there? Even if he were to join the Nine Dragon Sect, it would be a rare blessing to the younger generation of Jincheng City. Yet you rejected it without even thinking? Could it be that little brother has some sort of prejudice against our Nine Dragon Sect? "
"Hehe!" Where is it? I just think it's good to be free and not used to being bound. If I don't need to join a sect, I can agree. In fact, I am very interested in the secret location that you mentioned! "I'll thank Great Elder and Big Brother Bao for their good intentions just like that …"
"Don't thank me yet. If you want to get this chance, you must first agree to one of the Nine Dragon Sect's conditions! " Bao Yifan said with a serious expression.
"Big Brother Bao, don't worry about it. As long as it doesn't go against the principles of our sect, as long as it is within our capabilities, we will definitely agree to it!"
"Heh heh, I knew you would say that." Bao Yifan laughed and continued, "In fact, this condition is not that complicated. I just hope that if you are able to comprehend any of the secret manuals, you must personally hand over a copy to the Nine Dragon School!"
"Good!" I agree! "I wonder what the time of the adventure is …"
"Ten days later!"
"Yes." "The time is just right …"
"..."
Three days later.
At the foot of Yuxiu Peak, 50 miles north of Jincheng City. At the foot of the mountain stood a towering gatehouse that was about seventy to eighty feet high. From afar, it seemed extremely extraordinary. At the center of the entrance, three large words were engraved — Nine Dragons Gate.
"Big brother Bao, your Nine Dragon Sect is really impressive!" For such a big place like Jade Soo Peak to be taken over by you all? " Tie Lang asked Bao Yifan, who was standing beside him.
"What is this? The territory occupied by the Tigerfang Gang was much larger than this! Compared to the Nine Dragons Sect, the Nine Dragons Sect could be considered to be quite low-key. It's said that the Black Wood Sect occupies the territory within a hundred mile radius, and is even more tyrannical! " The black yak replied.
After three days, the black yak had almost fully recovered. On one hand, it was because of the high level healing medicine given to him by Bao Yifan, on the other hand, it was mainly because of his body being too strong, which made his recovery much faster than an ordinary person's.
"Brother Niu is right. Nine Dragons Sect had always kept a low profile. Their disciples focused on cultivation and rarely left the mountain when they had nothing to do. "This is different from other sects …"
The three of them chatted as they walked, and before they knew it, they had already reached the mountainside of Yuxiu Peak.
As a matter of fact, many buildings had been built since the foot of the mountain. By the time they reached the mountainside, the buildings had already begun to line up. Layers upon layers of pavilions and corridors stretched to the peak of the Jadeite Temple. At the center of Nine Dragons Gate was the main hall, which was also the destination of Tie Lang's group — Nine Dragons Gate's Meeting Hall.
From afar, the grand hall was actually about the same size as the peak. It was about three hundred meters long and wide, and its entire body was white. Under the shine of the sun, it was extremely magnificent.
"Brother Ironwolf, there is one thing that I must remind you beforehand. The young disciples in the sect are usually quite stubborn and refuse to submit to others. Originally, the five slots to participate in this adventure were determined through layers of selection. However, this time, because of your appearance, and because of the recommendation of the Great Elder, a spot has been locked for you in advance. Therefore, the disciples of the sect can only compete for the remaining four places. If this were the case, there would inevitably be some arrogant individuals who would feel indignant and discontent. There might even be some who would dare to provoke Qin Wentian. "So …"
"Big Brother Bao, do you mean for me to endure for a while?" Tie Lang frowned and asked.
"To be honest, I did think so before I saw you. After all, the information from the Great Elder was full of praise for your ability to comprehend. To be able to cultivate the 'Diamond Power Codex' to the Perfection of the third layer within a month, that kind of ability is indeed something I have never heard of before. However, he also mentioned that your training is only at the sixth stage of the Genuine Force. So, I have always been a little worried in my heart about how you are going to face that possible challenge. But who would have thought that the reaper, Qin Ke, was also no match for you. I am actually a little worried for the young disciples of our sect now … " Bao Yifan looked at Iron Wolf with a smile.
"Hehe!" I understand! Naturally, I won't let anyone think that I obtained this spot in the name of the Great Elder! If I want to convince others, I will display the strength I deserve! " Tie Lang chuckled and said.
"These young disciples are indeed lacking a few setbacks, which is why they have developed a bad habit of looking down on others. A proper setback might be better for them. However, when Brother Ironwolf attacks, don't act the way you did with Qin Ke... "
"This is really a bit difficult!" I have always fought with people without sparing any effort. "However, since Big Brother Bao is helping me this time, it looks like I have to put some water in …"
"Hahaha …" Look at what you're saying! How bad are all of us Nine Dragon Sect disciples? Although these brats did not care about the reputation of the 12 prodigies, they still had some ability. "At least not much worse than that Qin Ke. You'll have to use all your strength when the time comes!"
"That's good! "Otherwise, it would be boring to fight …"
"Hehe, big brother Bao, can you also arrange some people to spar with me, Black Ox?" Upon hearing that there was a chance to spar, the black yak also became eager to give it a try.
"You?" Bao Yifan glanced at the black yak and said, "You should recuperate after you've recovered from your injuries." There are quite a few combat maniacs like you in the sect who want to compete with others all day long. As long as I register there, I guarantee that I will have the chance to fight every single day. If I win too many matches, what about the rewards? "
"Really? How could there be such a good thing? There was even a reward for fighting? Hahaha … I'll report my name first! "I can't even fight a few rounds a day, all the flesh on my body is itchy and itchy …"
"Hahaha …" Seeing how worried the black yak was, both Bao Yifan and Iron Wolf could not help but laugh out loud.
Watchful Mountain ran his horse to its death.
Although the mountain didn't seem far away, it still took them more than an hour to truly walk on it.
When they finally arrived at the main hall, Bao Yifan ordered Iron Wolf and the black yak to wait at the entrance while he went in to report.
Not long after, Bao Yifan walked out with a smile on his face as he looked at Iron Wolf and said: "We really came back at the right time." It seems that there are some things that are destined to be unavoidable. "
"Big Bro Bao, what's wrong?" Tie Lang blinked his eyes and looked towards Bao Yifan.
"We have just decided on four spots today, yet all the young disciples are determined to stay in the hall and want to personally seek guidance from the person with the fifth spot, right?"
"All of the young disciples?" Tie Lang swallowed his saliva and asked, "How many people?"
"All of them are under the age of 18. There are a total of 120 people who have the qualifications to enter the great hall to participate in the final competition!"
"Alright! Since I can't dodge it, then let's fight! " Tie Lang gave a low shout as his entire body released a torrential fighting intent. His eyes bloomed with a strange light!
Fighting, passion, and hot blood were Tie Lang's favorite lives.
"Mysterious Nine Dragon Sect disciples, let me show you …"
Tie Lang followed behind Bao Yifan and walked into the main hall.
