Heaven Defying Dark Empress

Chapter 158: Release the list!

Views:

After Ouyang Xuan gave Mu Tianyin a cold look, she began to cover her head and be herself.

This time, Ouyang Xuan wants to evaluate the elder Qingpao, which means that she must achieve at least 850 points in the examination of the first item. This is extremely difficult, not to mention the difficulty of this session is obvious. promote.

Ouyang Xuan was also under a lot of pressure.

After that distant bell tolled, the entire Ziyang Sect went quiet!

Alien beasts are forbidden to fly, and disciple Yaotong is forbidden to travel!

At this moment, the tumbling sea of clouds seemed to stand still, and could only vaguely hear the subtle breathing sounds of the hundreds of thousands of cultivators participating in the assessment among the many peaks, and the atmosphere was unusually tense.

The 100 test takers in the Twelve Halls of the main peak were writing mad books and answering the questions every breath.

It took Mu Tianyin a quarter of an hour to look through it from the beginning to the end, to get a preliminary understanding of the outline, and then slowly picked up the pen and began to write step by step from the beginning.

She looked serious, but not too tense.

In fact, the number of questions this time exceeded Mu Tianyin's expectations.

In the twelve halls of the main peak, there are four old invigilators on the front, back, left and right. They meditate cross-legged on the jade platform ten feet above the ground, as still as statues. income.

The main peak of Ziyang Sect is in the sky, the sundial of phantoms is timed, thousands of test halls are scattered across the mountains, and the hourglass is bit by bit.

Whether it's physical or mental, it's an ordeal.

This has only just begun, and some monks are already sweating profusely!

Not to mention the cultivators taking the test here, even those who are idle outside, can clearly feel this tension. For example, the two Xu Luyi brothers and sisters are restless.

"I guess Mu Jin should be able to pass 600." Xu Luyi said.

About one or two hundred positions is already very good. Even if you lose the Profound Fire Order, you can prove your ability, and you will not be despised and criticized by those people.

Especially Ouyang Xuan, who always spoke ill of Mu Jin everywhere, saying that he was not worthy of being a disciple of His Excellency.

Is she Ouyang Xuan worthy

Telling right and wrong, isn't that what it means!

Yuan Ye hesitated, "I see Xuan, we know Mu Jin's ability to identify different trees, but it only accounts for two or three layers. We can't say for the rest." He thought about it, if there was something Si nodded and said, "I've seen five hundred and it's almost the same. If you can get half of the points, that's already very capable."

"No matter five or six hundred, Mu Jin will definitely perform well anyway." Xu Luyi was still very sure of this.

"You too underestimate her." A clear and evil laughter suddenly remembered.

Xu Luyi's head turned dizzy, and when he turned his head, he saw Qi Yeran leaning against the gate of the small courtyard, with a handsome posture.

Her eyelids jumped fiercely, and she got up quickly, "Your Excellency the Emperor!"

How did this little ancestor come here

Mu Jin is not here now, they can't stand this big Buddha.

Qi Yeran glanced inward, then looked at the location of the 12th hall of the main peak, and lightly raised his lips, "My little lord, I guess she is at least 900 percent."

When Mu Tianyin didn't retreat before, there was no less and Qi Yeran in Ziyang Zonghuang, Qi Yeran naturally knew Xu Luyi and Yuan Ye, as well as here, just came a little late, the assessment has already started , No flying outside, he was stopped by a few old guys, and he couldn't get up to the 33rd Layer, so he got here by the way.

Anyway, there are two people who know something, and they can talk about Mu Tianyin together.

Just looking at Xu Luyi and Yuan Ye, even when Mu Tianyin was there, neither of them dared to intervene, let alone Mu Tianyin was gone now, the two of them were talking hotly, but now they are dumbfounded. go.

But the bottom nine percent

They also hope that the more Mu Jin, the better, but this is not too exaggerated!

That is the lowest level required by the main alchemist. They heard that Ouyang Xuan, who has been in the Ziyang alchemy for nearly 30 years, and whose talent in alchemy is talked about by many teachers, has taken the test so many times, and the highest is only 830. ten points.

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other, very dissenting in their hearts, but did not dare to refute.

"He didn't say anything before he went?" Qi Yeran asked.

Xu Luyi shook his head, "I didn't say anything."

Qi Yeran glanced at the two of them and felt bored.

In a flash, he disappeared, coming and going without a trace.

Xu Luyi and Yuan Ye were speechless for a while, and they were still thinking about Qi Yeran's words.

On the other side, in the main hall of the Thirty Heavenly Pavilion, the Four Heavenly Venerates from east, west, north and south, several pavilion elders, and some detached master alchemists also gathered together to discuss the affairs of the past few days.

Every time the Ziyang Sect is promoted, they attach great importance to it, and this time it is related to the fate of Xuan Huo Ling, and they are even more concerned.

Nanfang Tianzun retracted his gaze, "It has already begun."

"This year, there are some good seedlings." Some venerables have already targeted the disciples.

Nanfang Tianzun also laughed and said, "There are twice as many people as last time. You have a choice."

This prosperous scene makes all the Venerables feel happy in their hearts.

"It's just a pity." Nanfang Tianzun suddenly remembered something, and the brows that had just stretched gradually sank, "In recent years, our Ziyang Sect has not been able to produce an outstanding disciple."

Northern Tianzun shook his head and sighed, "Yeah, you see that the Tianji sect has the emperor Qi Yeran, the Yuheng sect has the Taoist Mu Qianjing, the holy girl Ye Chaoge of the Qingcheng School, the Yaogong has Lian Qingchen, even Ji In the family, there is Ji Wuyou who is unparalleled in the Northern Wilderness, and our Ziyang Sect is also one of the best sects in the Northern Wilderness, but we can’t cultivate a disciple who can stand up to the front, are you saying this!”

A pavilion elder also sighed, "A peerless and extraordinary cultivator like those few people can be met without a chance. What's more, our Ziyang sect has established a sect based on alchemy, which is a little more difficult than other sects of cultivating immortals."

"According to the old man, Ouyang Xuan, a disciple of Bai Lao, is not bad. He is only in his early thirties. He is about to be promoted to Qingpao alchemist. Dao Xiu spiritual power has also reached the Dao foundation stage. It is really rare. It is better to focus on training." The master alchemist proposed.

Bai Qiutian stroked his beard slowly, and when he heard this, his brows rose, and he couldn't help but feel proud.

His disciple, of course not bad!

If it wasn't for that stinky boy Mu Jin intervening, maybe after some time, he would really be able to be elected as the disciple of Lord Holy Venerable.

Who knew that Nanfang Tianzun shook his head, "Ouyang Xuan can't do it."

Bai Qiutian was stunned, his face a little ugly.

"Ouyang Xuan is not bad, her aptitude is outstanding, which is very rare." Northern Tianzun also knows that there is such a disciple in the sect, "But it is not a question of whether we focus on training, but her aptitude is compared with those of the five. It's not worth mentioning, it's incomparable at all, let me wait and train under gravity, and I can only look at it."

Northern Tianzun said this very directly, but it was the truth.

This matter has always caused many venerables to worry about it, and they feel that they can't raise their heads in front of some sects. .

Bai Qiutian was stuck in his throat in one breath, and he couldn't go down or go up.

But I have to admit that Ouyang Xuan is indeed top-notch in the sect, but compared with the five peerless cultivators, it is really not worth mentioning.

"If you put it this way, this old man has a choice." Feng Xiaobai squinted.

"Who?"

The other venerables immediately became spiritual.

Feng Xiaobai was stunned by the question. If he said it was Mu Jin, how would these old guys react

During this time, he also inquired carefully.

When they were in Shicheng, Mu Jin was able to fight Ye Chaoge. Although the latter suppressed his strength, he could directly see that when the two sides were at the same level, Mu Jin's Dao cultivation strength was no worse than Ye Chaoge!

Moreover, in everyone's eyes, Mu Tianyin was only a Daoist real person of Zi Yan.

But only he clearly knew that the kid was already at the late stage of Kailing, and Mu Jin told him personally, there should be no mistake, but at that time, it was not clear that this kid was the Mu Jin of Shicheng. If you look at it, did Mu Jin soar to the late stage of Kailing within a month of leaving Shicheng

"That's right!" Feng Xiaobai just thought of this, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

How terrifying is this

He forgot to tell these old buddies about this matter. Before, everyone cared about the Xuan Huo Ling, and didn't think about the way, let alone Dan Dao, just cultivate immortal talent, Mu Jin is better than Qi Yeran. Bad!

Gosh-

"Elder Feng?"

"Elder Feng, what's wrong with you?"

The doubtful inquiries of several Tianzun came from around.

Feng Xiaobai came back to his senses, and his tongue was still a little knotted when he spoke, "No, it's nothing."

This... he had to digest it first.

"It's surprising." Nan Zun laughed and teased, "It's rare to see Elder Feng so complacent, looking at that forehead and sweating."

Feng Xiaobai didn't reply, frowning and still thinking about it.

However, after Feng Xiaobai slowly accepted this matter, he didn't know if he could digest it. In fact, four months ago, Mu Tianyin formed a second spirit in Danhai, and he had already broken through the spirit transformation stage.

Several other Venerables smiled and didn't care much.

Northern Tianzun changed the subject and continued, "This Profound Fire Order will not be recovered until ten days later."

"Yeah, it's always kept by an outsider, and we are not very at ease. Although Mu Jin is a direct disciple of the Holy Master, in the hands of the Holy Master, and in the hands of a hairy boy, it is completely inaccurate. It's the same." Elder Youge said.

That means, don't several Heavenly Venerates bow their heads to Mujin

This is illegal!

"According to the old man, that kid can answer 20% to 30% of the things, even if he is capable!" Bai Qiutian was not there with Mo Liuxian, and his resentment was deep in his heart.

Northern Tianzun nodded, "It's almost there."

For a beginner, a hundred percent is already considered excellent.

"Two or three percent can send that kid?" Feng Xiaobai came back to his senses after hearing this, and didn't take it seriously, "Then you should underestimate that kid, I don't know anything else, so I won't say it, it's just different. I can tell the two or three percent from the wood, the old man can say that the kid can pass all of them."

This will be put on hold until we see Mu Jin's alchemy test results.

Moreover, the strength of that kid was secretly told to him before, and it is inconvenient for him to publicize it now.

"Why is Elder Feng so sure?"

"Of course the old man knows."

"How to say?"

The dossier assessment over there is in full swing, and these old guys are not idle, getting together to chat.

When the sun sets in the west, travel to the east.

In such a tense atmosphere where every second counts, three days passed quickly.

Throughout the thousands of examination halls, half of the people showed a state of scratching their ears and scratching their cheeks.

The condition of the Twelve Halls of the main peak is not much better.

Ouyang Xuan encountered a hurdle in his journey, and even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't see through the alchemy deduction.

Feeling agitated, she raised her eyes and glanced at Mu Tianyin.

This guy can hold his breath!

Ouyang Xuan saw that Mu Tianyin's face was not blushing or panting, her side face was expressionless, and she felt a little nervous in her heart, but she quickly shook her head to drive out those messy thoughts.

No, this guy must know that he basically can't, so he broke the jar!

Ouyang Xuan took a deep breath and calmed down.

She skipped the hardest Dando game and continued to answer.

Mu Tianyin slenderly held a pen, her eyes wandered, and she paused or wrote, her mood was always calm and quiet, her answers were methodical, and she passed one after another. If anyone had been paying attention to her, she would have found that she never skipped any one!

The fourth day has passed, and more than half of the time, many people's anxiety has become obvious, and their faces are red.

"Bump!"

On the side of the main hall, under the helplessness of the cultivator, the whole person's state was a little crazy. He grabbed his long hair and slammed his head against the table, making a violent thumping sound, and he was still there. Talking to himself.

The next second, the man was grabbed and thrown out.

The hall returned to silence, and only the sound of the files being flipped could be heard.

Ouyang Xuan's mood was also a little confused, and the hand holding the pen couldn't help shaking.

More than half of the time has passed, but she has only reached half of the position, and she has skipped a lot. This time, both the number of questions and the difficulty are completely beyond her expectations.

The fifth day has passed, and nearly half of the people have left the Golden Temple!

They have already done what they can do, and they can't do the rest at all. Ziyang Sect will never give out exam questions based on luck. They will continue to stay in it. In the end, they can only drive themselves crazy. It is better to hand them over. easy.

The flames fluttered lightly, and the sea of clouds was calm.

Except for the monks who maintained order, the nine thousand peaks were still not allowed to move around freely.

"Boom!"

The melodious bell rang, and those alchemists who were still insisting on the 'battlefield' trembled at the tip of their pen. The sixth day came, and there was still one day left before the deadline for submitting the volume!

It is much better than other examination halls. Among the twelve heavenly halls of the main peak, there are still more than half of the hundred people left.

Four invigilators from east, west, north and south were sitting like a mountain, with their old eyes shining like torches. They didn't let up from the beginning to the end. They maintained the order in the Golden Jade Hall and strictly monitored everyone's changes.

It can be seen that on the side of the main hall, a participating alchemist is pinching his fingers.

The old man's face was flushed red, and he could see that he was in a hurry, where he pinched his fingers to deduce the Dan Dao, shook his head and immersed himself in his own world, and his mouth was silent for a moment, and the whole person was a little nervous.

Looking at the other side, a monk stared at the volume on the table, his eyes widened, his cheeks bulged like a toad.

Won't!

This is not right!

Still not!

"puff-"

Anxious to get angry, he didn't hold back, and he directly spurted blood from his heart.

The invigilator alchemist was not surprised. The two went up to pack him up and took him away. One of them kept the file and sealed it.

Mu Tianyin raised her left hand and wiped off the blood that fell on her cheek. The right hand that was writing did not stop.

Ouyang Xuan's heart was pounding. The current situation was like an hour-long exam, with less than a quarter of an hour left to answer. Plus there were so many things, she didn't even have time to take a look.

Who is not to panic

If you can't achieve the results you expect, you have to wait another three years!

Ouyang Xuan's fingertips trembled, her consciousness returned to one, and she quickly calmed herself down. Naturally, at this time, she didn't care about seeing Mu Tianyin, so she quickly calculated.

The more you hurry, the faster you feel, and the sixth day goes by in a flash.

On the seventh day, when the sun first rose over the sea of clouds, Mu Tianyin let out a sigh of relief and closed the last volume on the table.

She rubbed her shoulders and stood up. Immediately, the examiner, Dan Shi, flew over from the jade platform. She stepped forward to collect her file, and then handed it to the person behind her to store it with a special seal.

Ouyang Xuan caught a glimpse of the figure in front of him standing up, and only then noticed Mu Tianyin who got up and left.

Mu Tianyin turned around, looked up and saw Ouyang Xuan staring at her.

The alchemist beside him made a gesture of invitation, Mu Tianyin retracted his gaze, followed his instructions, and left the side hall on the other side, walking slowly and looking a little tired.

Ouyang Xuan gritted her teeth and snorted.

Guizhou donkey skills are poor!

With half a day left, Ouyang Xuan did not dare to delay for a second and continued to work hard.

Mu Tianyin walked out of the twelfth hall of the main peak, and felt refreshed. Because the assessment was still over, flying between the peaks was forbidden, and she could not run around, so she went straight up to the 33rd Heavenly Hall.

Back at the Hall of Refining Medicine, Mo Liuxian was not there, but he met Feng Xiaobai who was searching for ancient books in the central book hall.

Feng Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, looked at the time outside, and then looked back at Mu Tianyin.

One old and one small, big eyes staring at small eyes.

Feng Xiaobai didn't speak, because he hadn't thought about what to say for a while.

Mu Tianyin didn't speak because she felt that Feng Xiaobai's eyes were very strange today.

Feng Xiaobai was holding an ancient scroll of scriptures and couldn't help but speak first. He once again looked at the morning glow that had just emerged from the sea of clouds outside, "This time, isn't it yet."

"Not here." Mu Tianyin shook his head.

"It's alright." Feng Xiaobai put his hands behind his sleeves and smiled cheerfully, "It's fine to finish what you can do, you don't have to force it, and the old man has just heard about it, this time the question is a bit difficult. Even an experienced Qingpao alchemist would have a very difficult answer."

With that happy look, his eyes almost narrowed into a slit.

"?"

There was nothing wrong with the words, but Mu Tianyin always felt that Feng Xiaobai was weird today.

"Then how do you feel?" Feng Xiaobai asked caringly.

Mu Tianyin glanced up and down, followed his words and said, "I have done whatever I can."

Feng Xiao let out a hum, nodded with satisfaction, and his auspicious radiance lighted up, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, "It doesn't matter, I can't do it this time, isn't there a next time, you are still young."

"… "

In the end, Mu Tianyin couldn't hold back and said directly, "Elder Feng, can you be more normal, so I'm panicking."

"You're not normal, you stinky boy!" Feng Xiaobai frowned angrily.

Mu Tianyin nodded, "Still get used to it."

Feng Xiaobai sighed silently in his heart, then calmly said, "I'm not afraid that your kid will feel a blow, this old man, I care about you with kindness, you still don't appreciate it, you are a white-eyed wolf."

Mu Tianyin raised her hand, "Okay, my fault."

"Ask you something." Feng Xiaobai put the ancient book in his hand on the bookshelf on one side.

Mu Tianyin respectfully said, "You say it."

Feng Xiaobai walked over to Mu Tianyin, flipped his long sleeves behind his back, looked at her carefully, and asked with certainty, "Your kid told this old man last time that his strength has reached the late stage of Kailing, is it true? I didn't lie. old man, am I?"

Mu Tianyin raised her eyebrows lightly, and after a few seconds of silence, she replied, "No."

Although it has now reached the transformation of the gods, but he said that before, it is correct, it is not a lie.

"You kid, I really have you!" Feng Xiao clapped Mu Tianyin's shoulders with both hands, causing her to stumble, and cut off what she was going to say next, "I only react now. come over."

Such a genius of Taoism, even if they can't get through at the top of the Dan Dao, they have to find a way to stay in the sect!

Mu Tianyin steadied, and wailed in a long voice, "Elder Feng—"

Feng Xiaobai coughed a few times, and instantly returned to his dignified appearance.

"It's okay, I'll come to my junior brother to ask for some books, but I haven't seen anyone. If he comes back, remember to let me know." Feng Xiaobai said as he walked out. Dude let it go.

This has to be thought through!

Mu Tianyin looked at Feng Xiaobai who was leaving in a flash, and shook his head quite speechlessly.

It's fine now, just make a few pills to wake up.

Mu Tianyin moved towards the inner hall of alchemy behind while moving.

Next, there is the real alchemy, and she will definitely participate.

The bell rang in all directions, like thunder.

Seven days passed, and the last remaining batch of participants left the field, almost all of them staggered out. It was almost more than a fierce battle.

Afterwards, the entire Ziyang Sect was boiling.

"Hey, I just remembered, why did I just get stunned, look at my pig brain."

"It won't work this time, I see, I have to wait for the next chance."

"It's over, it's a nine-petal lotus, not a blue lotus!"

"what-"

Numerous monks were like beasts released from their cages, in the sky and the ground, in groups of three or five to discuss the scriptures, shouting and roaring, and there were many complaints and complaints from all parties.

However, it is useless to say anything now.

The files of all the test takers are sealed with a special seal, and there is no chance of any modification, including several Heavenly Venerates in the east, west, north, south, and south. There will be any favoritism, there is no doubt, it has also been recognized in the screening and competition of the disciples of all sects.

All we can do now is wait.

Wait three days for the results to be announced, and three days later for the judgment of life and death.

Because after the results are released, it is estimated that it will be the same as the previous year, with six percent as the watershed, and among the two hundred thousand monks, there are basically only two or three hundred people left, who are eligible to participate in the second real elixir refining.

Nervous, anxious, impatient.

The three-day period is usually very short, but this time it is indeed stretched infinitely. For these waiting people, it is tantamount to another silent torment.

If anyone felt at ease, it was only Mu Tianyin.

Mo Liuxian has no roads for the past few days, so she stayed alone in the Thirty-third Hall to make alchemy. It's no use worrying.

Three days have finally passed.

At noon, the giant white jade plaza in front of the Nine Heavens Hall of Ziyang Sect was shaking one after another, and as dusk approached, it was still crowded with people.

"Tian Yin, I finally caught you!"

As soon as Mu Tianyin stepped out of the Thirty Layers Hall, she was caught by Qi Yeran.

Mu Tianyin glanced at him, her expression was a bit awkward, "You really are, you have been so prosperous everywhere, and now you are treated by the master alchemist, I admire it."

At this current position, only the main alchemist has the right to come over.

Qi Yeran smiled and said, "It's not because of you."

"Come on." Mu Tianyin flew out.

Qi Yeran smiled and said, "Why, you can see the result immediately, are you nervous now?"

Mu Tianyin tilted her head to look at him, and spit out two words that were a little flat, "Guess."

Qi Yeran choked, the corners of his mouth trembling.

The last touch of the sunset sank into the sea of clouds, and the stars among the mountains were dazzling.

"Look, that's the only direct disciple of Lord Mo Liuxian, Mu Jin."

"Who is next to him?"

"Heaven, he is the emperor of Tianji Sect!"

The two of them came to the front of the main square of the Jiuzhong Hall. One of them was the disciple of the Holy Venerable, and the other was the emperor of the Dimensity Sect. It was easy to fall to the front, and the people in the back directly avoided the distance of ten feet.

The top is the Northern Heavenly Venerate, and there are four pavilion elders, including Feng Xiaobai.

Such battles are rare.

The Northern Heavenly Venerate looked at the young robed youth who flew down from his body, his gray brows were deeply locked, his expression was so tangled, he looked at Feng Xiaobai on the side, and let out a deep breath.

He painted this kid like that before, how could he be so embarrassed to speak now? Besides, the Holy Venerable is afraid that he also has his own thinking.

Regardless of so many other things, let's take a look at this kid's Dan Dao attainments.

Yes, in the release of the list, even the few Heavenly Venerates could not know the news in advance. Over the years, they have been unified in the square outside the Nine Heavens Hall, and released the score list of the exam papers for everyone to see.

The current situation is just like when the title of the Gold List in the Mortal World!

As long as it is an orthodox cultivation fairy sect, there will be such a disciple assessment. This is the case in Xianyuan, and even more so in Ziyang Sect. Now that it is the final decision time, how can you not be nervous

There are already many people on the square, and the atmosphere is urgent. Your words and my words are noisy, and everyone's heart is even more anxious.

Ouyang Xuan had been waiting here for a long time, seeing the two people talking and laughing, their noses were almost crooked.

She didn't understand why Qi Yeran liked to stick to this stinky boy Mu Jin!

Ouyang Xuan first nodded to Qi Yeran with a full smile and great manners, and then looked at the young man beside him and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Mu is participating in the promotion assessment for the first time, I don't know how he will play this time. How is it?"

Although the difficulty has increased this time, she still has no problem reaching 800 points. If her luck is better, 850 points is not impossible!

She doesn't believe it, this kid can turn the world upside down.

Mu Tianyin only glanced at her, and didn't even bother to tick the corner of her mouth, she clasped her hands and walked forward slowly.

For a while scolding a street shrew, for a while a pure white lotus flower, this woman is really sick.

Qi Yeran also ignored it, smiled slyly, and walked forward with Mu Tianyin, the two of them ignored Ouyang Xuan in complete agreement.

Ouyang Xuan stared blankly at the two of them passing her by, her smile froze at the corners of her mouth, her hands trembling with anger, and she clenched her silver teeth, "Damn it, I will see you later!"

Ouyang Xuan slowly adjusted her breathing. She couldn't lose her temper in front of anyone, and she couldn't lose her temper in front of Qi Yeran.

"Look, it's Mr. Qin!"

"coming!"

There was an exclamation from the crowd in the first few rows, and everyone held their breath.

Qin Lao is the chief invigilator, and he is also the one who issued the list this time. Thousands of eyes gathered on the elders who walked down the high platform.

To be precise, it was the golden scroll in his hand!
