It took Master and Disciple Jun Xiaomo and Tong Ruizhen three days and three nights to fly back to Qingfeng Sect from Xuyang Sect. The other elders of the Qingfeng Sect had already returned to the sect to report the matter to the sect leader because they were using teleportation scrolls. Overnight, the fifth elder Tong Ruizhen accepted a disciple who was only at the sixth level of Qi training. The incident spread throughout the entire sect.
Everyone is curious about what kind of person she is, who actually fell into the eyes of the fifth elder, who was so powerful that she even asked the fifth elder to break the rules for her, and became an official disciple of a high-level sect before she reached the foundation building stage.
Just when everyone was speculating wildly and rumors were flying all over the sky, the crane under Jun Xiaomo finally slowly began to land. What caught Jun Xiaomo's eyes was an emerald green peak surrounded by rich spiritual energy.
In fact, they could have arrived at the sect earlier, but Tong Ruizhen was still a child at heart. If he encountered anything that made him curious, he would stop and study it. If he encountered anything delicious or fun, he would also He would take his newly minted disciples for a walk, so much so that it took him until the third day to return to the sect.
As soon as she approached Qingfeng Sect, Jun Xiaomo felt a strong sense of oppression, as if there was an invisible force repelling her and not letting her get close to this area.
In order to resist this force, Jun Xiaomo spontaneously circulated the true energy in his body, but as they got closer, the force became stronger, making Jun Xiaomo inevitably turn pale.
"Oh, look at me, this old man, I'm really stupid!" Tong Ruizhen patted his head, took out a sign from the storage ring, handed it to Jun Xiaomo, and said, "Quickly put a drop of blood on this sign. It is the identity certificate of a disciple of the Qingfeng Sect. Without this sign, you will not be able to enter the Qingfeng Sect, and you will be directly killed by the sect-protecting formation."
After Jun Xiaomo took the sign, he quickly bit his index finger and dropped a drop of his own blood on it.
Soon, the blood seeped into the brand and disappeared. After a burst of blue light, the sign changed from blue to gold, with the words "Qingfeng Sect disciple, Jun Xiaomo" engraved on it.
This sign was tantamount to acknowledging its owner, and the pressure Jun Xiaomo felt instantly receded like a tide and disappeared.
"This sect-protecting formation is really powerful. I can feel the pressure even though it's still so far away." Jun Xiaomo said with emotion.
They are still a certain distance away from Qingfeng Sect, and they can't fly within a few sticks of incense.
"Of course, this formation to protect the sect was set up by my grandfather." Tong Ruizhen said proudly, with the word "pull" written all over his face.
Master's... grandpa...? Jun Xiaomo looked at the wrinkles on Tong Ruizhen's face and fell silent.
It was hard for her to imagine what her master's grandfather would look like and how old he was.
Of course, as a person in the world of cultivation, you cannot infer the other person's age based on his or her appearance. In his previous life, Jun Xiaomo was hundreds of years old, but he looked similar to someone in his twenties. This is related to the exercises practiced by cultivators and the time when they reach the Nascent Soul stage.
After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, unless something unexpected happens, the monk's appearance will not change again. Tong Ruizhen was an array master and talisman master, and he usually didn't put much thought into improving his personal cultivation. As a result, it took him a long time to break through the Nascent Soul stage, so he could only carry a mask covered with orange peels. Face.
Of course, he could also use pills and the like to make himself younger, but Tong Ruizhen really didn't care about these, so he just kept his appearance.
Putting aside all the vague associations in his mind, Jun Xiaomo's attention returned to the sect-protecting formation.
Although she can no longer feel the pressure of the Protecting Sect Formation, she can still feel a vague sense of mystery, and the closer she gets to Qingfeng Sect, the stronger this sense of mystery becomes.
"This sect-protecting formation is really powerful. I wonder what the consequences will be if you forcefully break into the Qingfeng Sect without an identity card." Jun Xiaomo thought to himself and murmured to himself.
Tong Ruizhen smiled "hehe", blinked at Jun Xiaomo, and said in a pretentious manner: "You don't want to know at all."
Jun Xiaomo: "..."
Does this mean "the consequences will be tragic and serious"
We can finally see the gate of Qingfeng Sect. The three words "Qingfeng Sect" written in wild cursive are engraved on the door, giving people a sense of domineering and domineering. The crane under Jun Xiaomo roared loudly, flapped its huge wings twice, and its huge body flew over the gate.
Many people in Qingfeng Sect heard this roar. In the meeting hall, several people wearing the clothes of inner disciples raised their heads and looked at the clear blue sky.
"Elder Tong is back." They whispered to themselves, with a glint in their eyes.
While Tong Ruizhen was still on the crane, he received a message from the sect leader, asking him to go to the meeting hall to speak.
There is no way, the world is huge, the sect master is the biggest. After the crane stopped, Jun Xiaomo and Tong Ruizhen jumped down one after another. Tong Ruizhen patted the spiritual pet on the head and let it find food by itself, and then said to Jun Xiaomo: "Disciple, originally the master wanted to take you directly I went to the place where I live and practice to have a look, but the sect leader just sent a message to the master, asking the master to go and talk to him, so I can only leave you behind for the time being."
"It's okay, Master, if you have something urgent, please leave first." Jun Xiaomo said with a smile.
"Then you should go shopping by yourself first. Remember to take the main road and don't go to those remote places, so as not to encounter some taboos. By the way, this is Master's special transmission note, which can be used to locate and call for help. Yes, it has certain defensive capabilities. You can hold it first, and Master will come to you after he finishes his work."
Tong Ruizhen said and handed a jade talisman to Jun Xiaomo's hand.
"Okay, thank you Master, please go quickly, lest the sect master will wait too long." Jun Xiaomo held the transmission talisman in his hand, with a warm smile on his face.
Although Tong Ruizhen was always a bit nagging, Jun Xiaomo also heard the true concern of a master for his disciples in these naggings. Therefore, even if Tong Ruizhen talked in a cliché, she would not feel upset. On the contrary, I felt very warm.
After a lifetime, Jun Xiaomo has long been able to distinguish clearly what is the most important.
After Tong Ruizhen left, Jun Xiaomo walked forward along the extending road. She didn't think clearly about where to go, she just thought that she would get familiar with the environment when she arrived in a strange place.
Jun Xiaomo walked forward aimlessly like this until a small pavilion and a large lotus pond appeared in front of him. In the lotus pond, lotus flowers of various colors have bloomed. They are colorful and beautiful. Jun Xiaomo's thoughts moved slightly and he walked towards the small pavilion by the lotus pond.
In Ye Xiuwen's cave, there is also a similar lotus pond and small pavilion. Looking at this familiar scene, Jun Xiaomo found a sense of familiarity in this strange place, and at the same time, a complex and unspeakable bitter taste surged in his heart.
Jun Xiaomo sat down in the small pavilion, looking at the koi in the lotus pond with some trance. After a moment, he lowered his eyes.
The koi in the lotus pond broke through the water, shining with sparkling light under the sunlight.
Jun Xiaomo was shaken back to her senses, and at the same time, she felt something strange.
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt like someone was observing her in the dark. The sight was like something sticky, sticking firmly to her body and slowly moving around her body.
This gaze had an indescribable meaning that made Jun Xiaomo's hair stand on end.
"Who?!" Jun Xiaomo's eyes suddenly became sharp, he turned around suddenly and looked around.
However, even if she released her consciousness, she could not find the source of this sight.
At this moment, a sound of footsteps and conversations coming from far and near reached her ears. As soon as she was interrupted by this sound, the uncomfortable sight just now also strangely disappeared.
Jun Xiaomo looked in the direction of the coming person and found that they were a group of monks wearing uniform uniforms. They should be between twenty-five and twenty-seven years old. The leader was a female monk. The runes on her belt were And accessories tell others about her extraordinary identity.
This was an inner disciple with a very high status. As for how high he was, Jun Xiaomo couldn't tell for a while.
"Hey, sister Leng Hui, we picked up a strange little kitten." One of the women standing next to the female cultivator said with a chuckle.
Kitten? ! Jun Xiaomo felt a chill at this title.
Moreover, I don't know if it was her imagination, but the eyes of these people looked at her with inquiry, contempt, indifference, and contempt, but there was no hint of friendship.
Jun Xiaomo thought, she shouldn't have offended these people, right? At least, in the first seventeen years of her life, she had never met these people.
The leading woman clearly saw the wariness in Jun Xiaomo's eyes, and a glint flashed in her eyes.
She removed the indifference on her face and put on a kind and friendly expression. She walked up to Jun Xiaomo and said to her: "This little sister is Elder Tong's new disciple, right? Welcome to Qingfeng Sect. , my name is 'Zhuang Lenghui', and I am the first disciple of Fenglai Peak."
It turns out that he is the first disciple of the Lord of the Peak. No wonder he has such a high status, Jun Xiaomo thought to himself.
However, what Jun Xiaomo couldn't figure out the most was where the first disciple's hostility towards him came from. Logically speaking, there should be no intersection between them at all.
Yes, hostility. Although the smile on Zhuang Lenghui's face showed just the right amount of friendliness, the coldness in her eyes could not escape Jun Xiaomo's eyes.
If you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it for the time being. Anyway, things will come to light sooner or later. With this thought, Jun Xiaomo also politely stretched out his hand, shook Zhuang Lenghui's hand, and said: "Senior Sister Zhuang, you Okay, my name is 'Jun Xiaomo', I just came to Qingfeng Sect, please give me some advice."
Jun Xiaomo's neither humble nor arrogant attitude made Zhuang Lenghui reassess her in her heart.
It seems that the new female disciple recruited by Elder Tong is more difficult to deal with than expected, Zhuang Lenghui thought silently, and the calculation in her heart, apart from herself, is probably even her closest Taoist friends and disciples in the sect. My best friend can’t tell either.
