Zhang Ruochen caught up with the tall and thin man, stood beside him, walked side by side, and asked curiously: "Just now, what do you mean by saying you are different from me?"

The tall and thin man stared at the front, without any intention of talking to Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen said again: "If you tell me the reason, I will tell you the reason."

Perhaps it was because Zhang Ruochen was a disciple of the Changsheng Academy. Or perhaps it was because the tall and thin man was indeed curious about Zhang Ruochen's abnormal behavior. Finally, he spoke: "My cultivation has reached the eighth change of the eagle and the dragon. Even if I swallow the Holy Spring, I will not be able to break through to the ninth change of the eagle and the dragon."

Zhang Ruochen nodded suddenly, and it turned out to be so, saying, "So, you plan to wait until you break through the ninth transformation of the fish and dragon, then take the Holy Spring, use the power of the Holy Spring to comprehend the Holy Way, and thus impact the realm of the semi-saint."

"good."

The tall and thin man stared at Zhang Ruochen: "Don't tell me, you have also reached the eighth change of the fish and dragon? Although I can't see through your cultivation, I know that your realm is still quite different from the eighth change of the fish and dragon."

"Awesome, I am worthy of being the eighth-changing powerhouse of the Yulong."

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, "It's okay to tell you. The reason why I don't stay in the first holy spring to improve my cultivation is because I want to go to the top of the second mountain to get the holy water from the second holy spring. If I have the chance, I also want to go to the top of the third mountain to take a look. It's only one day in a month, why do I waste my time on the first mountain?"

The tall and thin man's mouth twitched slightly, looked at Zhang Ruochen carefully, and said, "I really didn't expect that such an arrogant person had appeared in the Changsheng Academy. With your cultivation level, being able to pass the first level of the second level of mountain will be enough to cause a sensation in the Liangyi Sect."

Obviously, the tall and thin man did not believe that Zhang Ruochen could reach the top of the second mountain, but only felt that Zhang Ruochen was a madman who overestimated himself.

Previously, when he saw Zhang Ruochen saving the Holy Disciple who fell off the cliff, he thought Zhang Ruochen was quite humane, and they were also disciples of the Changsheng Academy, so he wanted to make a friend with Zhang Ruochen.

But just because of what Zhang Ruochen said just now, the only feeling of his affection for Zhang Ruochen was gone.

The tall and thin man walked straight forward and never said a word to Zhang Ruochen again.

What you say is called self-confidence.

What you say but cannot do is called arrogant.

Zhang Ruochen always felt that he was a confident person. If a person didn’t even have confidence, what else could he do?

Seeing the tall and thin man leaving without looking back, Zhang Ruochen just shook his head and smiled, without any emotional fluctuations. He walked to the foot of the second mountain with his hands on his back.

Before the two of them arrived, dozens of holy disciples gathered here at the foot of the mountain.

The monks who can come to the second level of mountain are naturally not simple characters. They are all rare among the Holy Disciples.

In front is a green stone wall a hundred feet high, and the stone wall is full of words cut out with swords.

Compared with the words at the foot of the first mountain, the words here contain more powerful kendo power.

Just standing under the stone wall, the monks could feel the stinging pain in their skin, as if there was an invisible sword energy hitting them.

Moreover, the words on the stone wall are quite obscure and extremely difficult to understand.

There are even some texts that have never appeared on the books, but are the fonts and shapes created by the ancestors of the Liangyi Sect.

Such words are called "Sacred Literature".

In the crowd, Zhang Ruochen saw Xu Changsheng and Gai Hao. At this moment, Gai Hao was fighting with a translucent figure. The two were in a difficult position to separate, and the sword energy was everywhere.

After about thirty moves, Gai Hao was hit in the chest by the translucent figure's sword, tearing a half-foot-long bloody mouth, and immediately defeated.

"Failed to pass the level."

The translucent figure turned into a text and flew back to the stone wall.

Gai Hao finally failed to pass the first level of the second mountain.

However, his record was recognized by everyone present. With the third transformation of the Yulong, he could fight against the guardians of the second level of the mountain for more than 30 moves. Only the holy body can be so powerful.

Gai Hao was defeated and immediately took the healing pill and retreated to the side.

"It is worthy of being a holy body. Such a young swordsmanship has reached this level. At most, Gai Hao should be able to pass the first level of the second mountain in three years." said a holy disciple who had changed the ninth transformation of the fish and dragon.

This Holy Disciple is 85 years old and looks like a middle-aged man. His cultivation is naturally quite profound. Once he steps out, he gives people the feeling of collapse of the earth.

He walked to the bottom of the stone wall and selected one of the words. Then the words fell off and condensed into the figure of the guardian.

"Bang bang."

After fighting for sixteen moves in a row, this disciple of the Holy Legend, who was the ninth transformation of the fish and dragon, was beaten out by the guardian.

The challenge failed.

Although this disciple of the Ninth Transformation of the Holy Legend of the Yulong, his understanding of swordsmanship is not as good as that of the third Transformation of the Yulong, so he only blocked the sixteen moves of the guardians.

From this we can also see how perverted the test of the second mountain is. Even the Holy Body and the Holy Disciple of the Ninth Transformation of the Yulong are difficult to pass the first level.

Someone noticed Zhang Ruochen and the tall and thin man and said in surprise: "Hey! Two newcomers rushed through the third level of the first mountain and came here."

"It's interesting. Both are holy disciples of the Changsheng Academy. When did the Changsheng Academy become so strong?"

"In the past thirty years, every sect competition has almost always ranked at the bottom of the rankings. How could two geniuses appear at once?"

The arrival of Zhang Ruochen and the tall and thin man caused a lot of restlessness in the second mountain. After all, which monk who could come to the second mountain was not a famous figure?

The Holy Disciples present turned their heads and looked over.

When Xu Changsheng saw Zhang Ruochen, he snorted softly. Obviously, Zhang Ruochen was able to come to the second mountain, which made him feel quite disdainful.

Finally, someone recognized the identity of the tall and thin man, his face changed slightly, and he immediately sent a message to all the Holy Disciples present.

"It turned out to be him."

When they learned of the identity of the tall and thin man, the other disciples of the Holy Legend also showed a look of surprise and doubt. They immediately retreated left and right, giving way to the tall and thin man.

Only three people still seemed calm and relaxed, and did not feel panic because of the arrival of the tall and thin man.

The first one is Xu Changsheng.

The second one is Qin Yufan standing under the stone wall.

The last person stood on the edge of the cliff in the distance. Her delicate body was blocked by a layer of white clouds. Her figure was very slender, her legs were straight and slender. Although she could not see the facial features on her face clearly, she could see the soft curves of her figure outline.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at her from a distance, and could roughly guess her identity. He should be the proud daughter of heaven who had reached the clarity of swordsmanship as soon as she was born, Qi Feiyu.

Xu Changsheng stared at the tall and thin man and said, "Candong, you are finally willing to return to the sect. I thought you would fight in the battlefield of the Ruins for the rest of your life."

The tall and thin man said, "If the swordsmanship conference was about to be imminent, I would not have come back."

"Since I'm back, let's fight!"

Xu Changsheng's voice contained a powerful sound wave, and a surging holy aura surged out of his body. In an instant, a huge martial soul phantom, thirteen feet high, condensed behind him.

"rustle!"

Suddenly, sand and stones flew at the foot of the second mountain, and the strong wind whistled, like hundreds of wind blades passing through the air.

Zhang Ruochen stood in the distance, quietly watching, and muttered to himself: "It turns out that he is the Blood Sword Silkworm Dong, and he is indeed a strong opponent."

Although Zhang Ruochen had never fought with Can Dong, he could still sense the power of this person, which was a bit unfathomable.

Then, Zhang Ruochen's eyes stared at Xu Changsheng again.

Xu Changsheng is younger than Can Dong, and he looks like he is in a fierce fighting spirit. In fact, Zhang Ruochen saw Xu Changsheng's eyes quite calm. It can be seen that this person is not an impulsive person, but a brave and resourceful person.

Another amazing person.

Even Zhang Ruochen was a little anxious and wanted to see what kind of scene would be like when Xu Changsheng and Can Dong fight?

Faced with Xu Changsheng's challenge, Can Dong seemed particularly calm and said, "I am here to explore the second level of mountain. I don't want to waste my energy at the foot of the mountain. As long as you are strong enough, we will definitely have a chance to fight during the sword fighting."

Xu Changsheng restrained his fighting spirit and said, "Since that's the case, let's compare, who can go further in the ancient sacred mountain."

Xu Changsheng walked to the bottom of the stone wall first, raised his head, glanced at the stone wall, and said, "Although I have already passed the first level of the second mountain, this time, I want to challenge two words."

All the Holy Disciples around were shocked. No one expected that Xu Changsheng would dare to challenge the word "two at once".

The two words mean that he has to fight against two passers-guards alone. Compared with challenging one passers-guard, the difficulty is greater than twice as high.

"Will Xu Changsheng be too confident in his swordsmanship?"

"Talking two words at once should be a great challenge for him."

"Wow!"

On the stone wall, two characters separated at the same time, turned into two translucent figures, and attacked Xu Changsheng at the same time.

Three figures fought together and fought fiercely. Except for Qin Yufan, Cannabi and Qi Feiyu, the rest of the people retreated far away, fearing that they were accidentally injured by the sword energy.

Zhang Ruochen held his chin with his hand, observed for a moment, and said to himself: "If you want to pass this level, the sword realm must at least reach the initial level of clear sword heart, and you must also practice Jianyi to the third level."

According to Zhang Ruochen's judgment, Xu Changsheng almost cultivated Jian Yi to the fourth level. With his strength, he still had a certain chance of winning against two passers-guards at the same time.

Half an hour later, Xu Changsheng used a ghost-level mid-grade swordsmanship to defeat the two passers-by and pass this level.

At some point, Han Qiu stood silently behind Zhang Ruochen, staring at Xu Changsheng in the distance with a pair of beautiful eyes, and smiled with red lips and white teeth: "The word challenge can actually win. Xu Changsheng should have practiced Jianyi to the fourth level, which is really amazing."

Zhang Ruochen was not surprised that Han Qiu was able to pass the third level of the first mountain.

Zhang Ruochen said without looking sideways: "Junior Sister Han Qiu, you'd better stay a little further away from me."

Han Qiu stared at him with a resentful look and said, "Didn't you always like me? Why did I take the initiative to approach you? You began to reject me again? Aren't you no longer the cat who likes to steal fish?"

"Have you never heard the four words "Beauty and Beauty"? If your Senior Brother Xu saw me so close to you, he would probably say that I was teasing you. In this way, wouldn't I become his rival for no reason?" Zhang Ruochen said.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen felt a pair of sharp eyes staring at him, so he looked over with his eyes and happened to face Xu Changsheng's eyes.

Zhang Ruochen smiled bitterly and said, "Look! Every time he is too close to you, he will always be hostile."

Han Qiu narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled slightly, and whispered in Zhang Ruochen's ear: "Originally, I have decided to give you a chance to pursue me, but I didn't expect that you were a coward. Could it be that you were scared by Xu Changsheng's stare at me?"

Xu Changsheng stood under the stone wall and saw that Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu were not only close to each other, but also talking and laughing, and a feeling of jealousy arose in his heart.
