Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 452 - The more the merrier

It has been said that once a Heavenly Sea Pavillion disciple has broken through the spirit realm, he or she would be put into the spell formation.

If he or she is able to break through the formation, the disciple would have already mastered the Five Dragon Playing With The Pearl.

五龙玄水阵是天海阁的绝秘,不可能这样大喇喇摆出来给这么多人看,估计只是化用.但,就算是化用,能窥见一二真义,也是受用不尽.

The Five Dragon Mystic Water Formation is the Heavenly Sea Pavillion’s confidential secret, so it would be impossible that they are putting it out for a show.

It’s mostly like to be an incomplete replica, but even so, it would be beneficial if they are able to figure out some parts of the stunt from the formation.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.

一时间,不知道有多少人盯着这个五龙玄水阵.

The crowd’s eyes are all stuck onto the formation.

主座的末位,寇威露出若有所思的表情.

On the host table, Kou Wei seems to be deep in thought.

这事显然是众人合议,偏偏他这个十大弟子之首,却一点消息也没听到.

This is obviously a joint idea.

But as the first of the top ten disciples, he knew nothing about this.

呵,有意思了.

~Heh, it’s getting interesting~

“方师兄?”戴静予面露愕然.

“Senior brother Fang?” Dai Jingyu looked slightly shocked.

她本已向寇威告罪,不打算出席.可花满溪找过来,为了面上好看,最终还是打算出个场.但这一出,根本不在她预料内!

She had already informed Kou Wei that she would not be attending, but Hua Manxi came over to look for her, saying that it would look better if she was present.

~But this is not in her expectation!~

方镇神情自若,并没有给予回应.

Fang Zhen look to the front, not replying Dai Jingyu.

戴静予肚子里滚了几圈,终是忍下了.

Dai Jingyu gritted her teeth and calmed herself down.

这么多人看着,这个脸面,丢不起.

She couldn’t afford to embarrass herself in front of so many people.

掌门面色不变,笑吟吟道:”方镇,你摆出五龙玄水阵是做什么?莫不是要进去打上一场吧?”

The sect leader was still in all smiles.

“Fang Zhen, what did you arrange the Five Dragon Mystic Water Formation for?

Are you perhaps going in to fight a round?”

方镇向众位长辈揖了一礼,说道:”我辈皆是习武之人,不打怎么好看呢?”

Fang Zhen bowed to his elders and smiled thinly.

“Junior is a martial artist, how can I make it interesting if I don’t fight?”

主座上的长辈们笑了开来,其中一位长老道:”但你这个五龙玄水阵,是个变阵,想必另有关窍.到底玩什么花样,还不快快说来.”

The elders on the main table laughed heartily upon hearing him.

One elder than pointed to him.

“But the Five Dragon Mystic Water Formation is an ever-changing formation, so what tricks do you still have in your sleeves?

We are curious to know.”

“是.”方镇指着那虚影之中的五龙玄水阵,”诸位前辈请看,此阵撤去了杀伤之效,将关卡改为迷宫.今日既是太师祖的寿宴,若是见血,岂不伤了和气?因此,我与师弟师妹们想了这个法子,只比破关速度,不比招式.”

“Yes.” Fang Zhen pointed at the imaginary formation.

“Seniors, please take a look at this.

We have taken away the lethality of the formation and turned the checkpoint into a maze.

Since it’s the great martial grandfather’s birthday, we should refrain from seeing blood.

Thus, alongside with my junior brothers and sisters, we have come up with an idea.

To compete with the speed, and not skills.”

众人凝神望去,无不赞许点头.

The crowd stared at the imaginary maze before nodding.

离主座甚远的薛家席位上,许先生抚掌道:”妙啊!既是五龙玄水阵,要破关就必须动手.如此一来,既能打得好看,又不必见血.”

On the Xue family’s table which far away from the main table, Sir Xu clapped happily.

“Smart!

Since it’s the Five Dragon Mystic Water Formation, one must fight in order to pass the checkpoint.

With this, the crowd can enjoy the fight but nobody would be injured in the process.”

薛意眉头却不见舒展:”天海阁憋了这么多天,就只是如此?似乎太简单了…”

But Xue Yi still looks troubled.

“The Heavenly Sea Pavillion kept quiet for so many days just for this?

This is way too simple…”

九瑶宫的席位上,陆明舒提了提嘴角,却连个笑都没露出来.

On the Nine Jade Palace’s table, Lu Mingshu quirked up the corners of her mouth but she did not even flash a smile.

“陆师姐,有什么不对吗?”元榕觉得她这表情有点吓人.

“Senior sister Lu, is there anything wrong?” Yuan Rong felt scared at her expression.

陆明舒给她夹了个水晶包子:”少说,多吃.”

Lu Mingshu put another dim sum in her plate.

“Eat more, speak less.”

“…哦.”

“…Oh.”

另一边的谢长晖,毫无顾忌地把话说出来了:”公子,我怎么觉得天海阁的在使坏啊?”

“Young master, why does it seem that the Heavenly Sea Pavillion is playing tricks?” At the seventh truth platform’s table, Xie Zhanghui who is watching the scene blurted out.

谢廉贞拿扇子敲了敲他的头:”算你还没蠢到家.”

Xie Lianzhen smacked his head with his fan.

“Luckily you are still smart.”

谢长晖虚心求教:”那他们到底在使什么坏?”

“Then what are they trying to do?” Xie Zhanghui asked genuinely.

谢廉贞笑而不语.

Xie Lianzhen smiled and remained quiet.

主座上,程掌门笑问:”方镇,既有比试,那就有规则和赏罚,你这规则为何,赏罚为何?”

On the main table, Sect Leader Cheng smiled.

“Fang Zhen, since it’s a competition, there must be rules and prizes, right?”

方镇道:”倒也简单,掌门请看,此阵有两个入口,分别一左一右.谁先到达中心,谁就算赢.至于赏罚么…”他笑着拱手,”还要请诸位师长援手了.”

Fang Zhen nodded.

“The rules are fairly simple.

Sect leader, as you can see that there is two entrance, one of the left and the other on the right, the first one to get to the center would be the winner.

As for the prize….” He smiled and bowed.

“I will need the elders to help.”

“哦?”

“Oh?”

方镇指了指法阵中心那个平台:”将奖品置于中心,谁先到谁就得.我等小辈囊中羞涩,还请诸位师长赏些彩头.”

Fang Zhen pointed to the platform in the middle of the maze.

“The prize would be placed in the middle.

Whoever that reached first, will get the prize.

Junior is poor, so I will need elder’s help to sponsor me some gifts.”

众长老笑了开来,有人点着方镇,笑骂:”什么贺寿,这是掏我们家底来的!”

The elders burst in elder.

One on the main seat even pointed at Fang Zhen, laughing.

“Are you here for a birthday celebration or to make us poor?”

“诶,师伯所言差矣.”方镇一本正经,”太师叔祖何等修为,身外之物,早就不稀罕了.我等煞费苦心,才想出这个法子来.”

“Eh, senior uncle is wrong.” Fang Zhen looked at him seriously.

“Great martial grandfather is such a powerful cultivator that physical matters aren’t that important to him anymore.

I have put in a lot of effort to get this idea out.”

又是一片欢声笑语,末了,问海先生笑眯眯道:”好!就冲你们费的心思,这彩头我出了!来人,拿七宝珊瑚来!”

The elders than burst in laughter.

After sometime, Sir Wen Hai looked up in all smiles.

“Okay, for your effort, I’ll do the honor of sponsoring.

Take the Seventh treasure coral over!”

不多时,四个精壮的汉子抬着一物,送到主座上.

Not after long, four buffed looking man carried an item up the stage, and placed it in the middle.

蒙物的红绸一掀,周围顿时响起惊叹声.

When the red coloured cover is being lifted up, shierks could be heard everywhere.

“好大的珊瑚!”

“Such a huge coral!”

“颜色很正呢!”

“It’s so pretty!”

也有人奇道:”只是珊瑚,再大也就是个玩物,对我们没用啊!”

“It’s just a coral, no matter how huge it is, it’s just a toy that’s useless to use!” Some could not understand the commotion.

立刻被旁人白了一眼:”谁说只是玩物?你仔细看了,寻常玩物会这样宝光四射?这七宝珊瑚,其实只是借珊瑚的名头而已,实则由七种不同的宝物凝成,每一种都是上好的炼器之宝.”

His friend rolled his eyes.

“Who said it is a toy?

Look closer, why would an ordinary play toy shine in the manner?

This Seventh Treasure Coral is actually a not coral, but congealed out of seven different treasures.

Which is good for refining one’s weapon.”

“是这样吗?”

“Is that so?”

那人满眼羡慕:”据说七种合炼,能制神兵呢!”

His friend look at him, eyes shining brightly.

“It’s been said that this could be used to make spirit weapons!”

“神兵!”

“spirit weapons!”

这下真的轰动了.器分四种,凡铁,玄兵,宝器,神兵,每一种又分上中下三品.

And this caused a sensation.

There are four classes of weapons.

Ordinary steel, mystic weapon, treasured tool and spirit weapon.

In each class, they are than separated as lower, middle and upper class.

本界炼器术传承简陋,虽有不错的资源,武器一直捉襟见肘.上了融合境,才能弄一把玄兵,多数还只是中下品玄兵.出神境家底不错或深受看重的,或许能得一把宝器,实力普通的都是进入出神境甚久,才能换掉手中的玄兵.

The Tool Refining Technique in Lu Mingshu’s world is shabby.

Even though there have are abundant of reasources, weapon

神兵,那是传说中的东西.古夏有多少神兵,数都数得过来,多数在化物境手中,只有寥寥在出神境手中.

听说七宝珊瑚能炼神兵,岂有不眼红的?人人都想,天海阁果真豪阔,居然连这种宝物都拿出来给小辈当彩头.

谢廉贞却轻嗤一声,不屑道:”哪有那么容易?七种合炼制神兵,只是理论而已.七宝一体,本就很难分炼,能成功取下其一就不容易了,还想合炼成功?这玩意儿,也就能炼个宝器或提个品质吧!”

就算只是这个层次,也足够出神境趋之若鹜的.不过,七真观并不比天海阁穷,谢廉贞还有王妃的补贴,王妃连玄水珠都能一送送一串,他还在乎这个?

座中,问海先生笑道:”不能只我一人出血,你们这些当长辈的,怎么也该表示一下心意吧?”

他都这么说了,其他人岂能不凑趣?几位化物境都拿了东西出来,虽然不及七宝珊瑚,但也是难得的宝物.

这些东西,看得他派弟子眼热不已,只恨自己不是天海阁的,没机会弄到这些宝物.

这时,方镇上前一步:”多谢诸位前辈慷慨解囊,弟子这里还有一个建议…”

长老们一听建议两个字,又想笑又想骂:”说说,你又想出什么鬼主意了?”

“师叔师伯们怎么这么说?”方镇笑吟吟道,”弟子只是觉得,独乐乐不如众乐乐.长辈们赐了这样的宝物,也想叫诸位同道同乐.”
