The number ninety-nine is the ultimate number in heaven and earth, so it makes perfect sense for Qingxuan to choose to open the mountain gate on this day.
Although there was a spontaneous elimination, at least thirty people were still unscathed.
These people have a lot to offer regardless of their talent and character. They may even be like the children of several top aristocratic families, protected by experts.
Shen Lian was not the first to arrive, nor was he the last to arrive.
As the sun rises, the clouds covering the mountain gate keep puffing and puffing, and the smoke gradually dissipates, revealing a climbing path.
The first person to enter was a scholar named Lu.
This person is not a child of aristocratic family, and his background cannot be told. Along with Shen Lian, he is one of the three most mysterious people in this group.
Someone tried to attack him, but every time he was unscathed. As for the person who attacked him, he left in shame the next day.
Shen Lian guessed that the scholar surnamed Lu must have some tricks to attack people's minds.
Although Lu Sheng was a scholar, he was tall and had a generous and tragic chivalrous temperament.
After he entered, nothing strange happened, and the people behind him filed in.
The second mysterious man was a thin, average-looking, frail young man who seemed to dare not speak loudly.
And this person has a characteristic, that is, you can easily ignore him.
Even with Shen Lian's keenness, every time he sat down next to Shen Lian with his rice, Shen Lian would be surprised.
If Shen Lian hadn't observed him for a long time, he might have forgotten what he looked like.
Even if you don't pay attention, you don't know where he went.
Few people noticed the strange things about the weak boy. Only Shen Lian and a few people noticed it.
Therefore, they are said to be the three most mysterious people. In fact, the weak young man has almost no reputation.
When Shen Lian set foot on this mountaineering road, he habitually looked back. Although he was surprised many times, he was still surprised to see this frail young man.
The young man was not very fast, and he did not even have any knowledge of martial arts. He even fell down.
But he still stood up and walked up the stone steps.
The curling smoke obscured everyone.
It was said that thirty people went in together, but once inside, it was as if they were in a different space and no other people could be seen.
People outside the mountain gate can't see what's going on inside, and people inside don't know what's going on with other people.
From the first day, people kept rolling out of the mountain road, hitting their heads and bleeding.
If anyone pays attention, they will find that these people who fell down have actually killed people in the town.
A total of twenty-two people fell out, obviously less than ten people. It seemed that everyone ignored one problem. The mountain gate was wide open for half a year.
On the top of Qingxuan Mountain, there is Tianchi.
It exudes cold air like curling white mist.
There were two old men playing chess under the tree by the pond, one in red robe and the other in gray robe.
Shen Lian was the first to reach the top of the mountain. He was not surprised. In fact, due to his powerful soul and the "True Explanation of Shangqing Lingbao Naturally Locking the Heart and Concentrating the Mind", there were few problems when visualizing the innate god. Illusions can confuse him.
The so-called questioning of the mind is actually based on illusion.
Moreover, it is impossible to test these people who have not entered the Senryu to be too advanced.
Shen Lian saw two old men, but the two old men did not leave him, minding their own game of chess.
Three days and three nights passed, and Shen Lian still didn't see anyone else come out.
If he were an ordinary person, he would be complacent about how outstanding he is, but Shen Lian doesn't have much pride, because he knows best how little he weighs.
It's not easy to live on the top of this mountain. The water mist in Tianchi Hantan is so cold that Shen Lian has to use his energy to resist all the time.
Even though all his eight meridians were connected and he was alive and well, he had not eaten or drank for three days and three nights, and his internal Qi was severely depleted.
In fact, he can still take in a little bit of heaven and earth energy into his body, but he can't make ends meet.
In fact, he might as well just stay in the inner world, which would consume much less money.
It's not like he hasn't asked the two old men before, but they didn't answer any of them, and he didn't know how long he had to wait.
After leaving the mountain climbing road, there is no other path. The surrounding area is a natural chasm that cannot be crossed.
Unless Shen Lian can fly.
At the same time, the wind above him was so fierce that Shen Lian did not dare to leave his body, for fear of being blown away and ending up in a state of disarray.
Waiting is not a very difficult thing. The most painful thing is the unknown waiting, the waiting without expectations.
This kind of test can make even a tough hero feel desperate.
Shen Lian is a human being. If he has a heart, he will naturally have emotions. The pervasive despair makes him on the verge of madness.
But his reason told him not to go crazy and let him continue to calm down.
There was fire in his chest, but his mind was cold.
He knew very well that he was on the verge of becoming possessed, and almost wanted to enter his mind again and go down the mountain, but a premonition told him that after going down, the fairy fate would be gone.
But a clear and rational analysis shows that Qingxuan is not the only one with immortality in the world.
Shen Lian quietly watched the chess game next to the two old men. No one knew that under his calm appearance, his madness could erupt like a volcano at any time.
Shen Lian gradually turned his attention to the chessboard. It took a long time for the two old men to make a move.
His chess skills are not particularly superb, but he can still understand, and the black and white pieces are evenly matched.
And the situation is so complex that it is even more entangled, with tricks within tricks and knots within knots.
This is much more complicated than any internal energy path.
Shen Lian didn't speak, his attention was focused on the chessboard.
On the chessboard, the black and white stones each have less and less room. It is about to reach the final stage, but it is difficult to determine the outcome.
It's just that when Shen Lian watched the chess pieces fall into place, sometimes when he noticed a certain chess piece, an acupuncture point on his body would beat violently.
Sometimes it is a black piece, sometimes it is a white piece, and so on.
When he continuously connects the black and white seeds, the beating acupuncture points on the body will also be connected and connected with each other.
The acupuncture points on the human body are as secret as the stars, and even the functions of many acupuncture points are unknown.
He matched the size of the chess pieces on the chessboard to the acupuncture points on his body. There were more than three hundred acupoints in total. More than a hundred of them were penetrated by him. The restless inner energy was greatly calmed down, and the anger in his heart also calmed down. Gradually subsided.
Only now did he realize that this game of chess actually had a profound qigong and kung fu route in it.
Unfortunately, before he could finish watching the game, the old man in Zhupao disrupted the game with a big wave of his hand.
The old man in gray robe cursed: "You are about to lose. What does this mean?"
"This batch of three seedlings has arrived. It's time to report back to the leader." The old man in the red robe twisted his beard and smiled, with an expression of God's will, what can you do to me.
The old man in gray robe looked to the side. Behind Shen Lian, there was indeed a scholar and a frail young man.
As for the other people on Wenxin Road, they have all been eliminated. I don’t know if seven more people can come up in the next time to make up ten people.
