Thunder roared, the rain stopped and stopped, stopped and fell again.
A torrential rain lasted for three days and three nights before it stopped completely. It seemed that the entire Shushan Mountain had been thoroughly washed, and the air was full of green and moist breath.
Early in the morning, the sky was still dark, and it was pitch black outside, but in the Shushan Mountains, more than a dozen large stoves on the Shaohuo Peak were already blazing into the sky.
In more than a dozen huge iron pots, there was only boiling water, and the pots were not covered, and the mountain wind was blowing.
Flourishing!
Luo Bei also got up to wash up, and tidied up his clothes carefully.
It has been over two years since I arrived in Shushan, Luobei has already grown half a head taller, from a child in the mountains to a quiet young man. And this day is also an important day for the entire Shu Mountain.
The biennial trial for new apprentices, the Sword Recognition Conference!
Any disciple who can pass the trial and examination can enter the forbidden Tianjian Peak of Shushan Mountain to find a sword embryo that is destined for him!
Shushan focuses on practicing the flying sword art. Even the disciples of Tianzhu Peak must have their own flying sword, because only those who use the sword will know what is good about a good flying sword and what it should be like. to refine.
Therefore, only those who can enter the forbidden land of Tianjian Peak and the sword tower, and who can get a sword fetus, are the real disciples of Shushan, and will be qualified to come into contact with the advanced techniques including various sword-cultivating techniques of Shushan .
It is already an exception for Luo Bei and others in Ge Lifeng to be awarded Dao Dao Zhi Cui Xu Jue. In the past, ordinary new disciples could only be awarded the same level of Zixuan Qi Jue. If you don't get the sword embryo, it is impossible to get in touch with the Dao Dao Zhi Cui Xu Jue.
People like Luo Bei and others now, even if they have practiced Dao Dao Zhi Cui Xu Jue to a very high level, it is equivalent to keeping a pile of money, and they don't know how to spend it, because like Zixuan Qi Jue, this Dao Dao Directly pointing at Cuixu is also not an offensive formula. Just like a samurai in the world, even if he has practiced internal skills, but he doesn't know how to punch or use internal skills to hurt others, it is useless.
Although the person who created this Dao directly pointing to the Cuixu Jue may only want to use it to maintain health and seek longevity, which is worthy of heaven. But today's ascetics, which one doesn't want to control a huge lethal spell
As long as you have cultivated to the fourth level of the Dao Dao directly pointing to the Cuixu Jue, combined with the Shushan Sword Jue, you can immediately reach the most superficial state of controlling the sword, and the sword control within a hundred steps is already many times more lethal than fists and feet.
What's more, in the sword tower of Tianjian Peak, there are not only the magic weapon flying swords refined by Shushan for many years and the magic weapon flying swords obtained by the disciples going out, there are also many magic weapon flying swords left behind by many Shushan seniors after their death. The seniors of Shushan will even keep their own skills and the best flying sword formulas in the flying swords, and leave them to the younger generation of Shushan who are destined.
The cultivation formulas hidden by some Shushan seniors are even more powerful than some of the top-level formulas in Shushan today.
The most important thing in cultivating the Tao is chance, and Shushan, who deeply understands this, has always been almost pious on this day, because not only is the flying sword a second life for the people in Shushan, but also on this day, all the disciples who participated in the trial are For the treasure diggers, no one knows what kind of treasure they will dig up, and no one knows whether any of them will have the chance to obtain the inheritance of some of the predecessors of Shushan that have been lost in the years and memories.
On such a day, disheveled clothes and being late will be considered disrespectful, and one will be directly disqualified from the trial!
It is absolutely impossible to be late, "Caishu, Linhang, you can't sleep either?" Luobei, who arrived at Tianyu Peak Mental Cultivation Hall under the starlight, saw at a glance that everyone was there except Xuan Wuqi. , and Luo Beicai greeted Cai Shu and Lin Hang, and Xuan Wuqi's foot had already crossed the threshold of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
"Now that we're all here, let's set off for Tianqing Peak. It will take a lot of energy today. Before you come, you should all be full, right?" Ming Hao's face was full of excitement and nervousness at a glance. , but said with a dark face, "If you haven't eaten it, then you don't need to eat it. You will even forget what I told you. If you fail the test, you can't blame others!"
"What's wrong with Master Minghao today? Could it be that he lost his temper in practice and his face is so dark." Cai Shu, who was walking beside Luobei, said secretly, "These few words are so confusing, they don't make any sense. It's not like what he usually says."
Caishu today is also the same as when Luobei was punished for the first time when he helped Luobei clean the wing room. His hair was coiled up and tied into a bun, but after two years, Caishu's neck looked even more serious. Slender and slender, with a bulging chest, it is no longer the same as before, giving people the feeling of a good-looking boy.
Glancing at Cai Shu, Luo Bei smiled and did not speak, but Gong Yang Jinbo behind him sneaked in, "I heard from a few senior brothers yesterday that Master Dan Lingsheng and the others went out of the mountain for business, and they have been waiting for a long time. He didn't come back, but news came back a few days ago that Senior Uncle Dan Lingsheng and the others might have been ambushed by Zhaoyao Mountain. Uncle Minghao might be so dark because he was worried about Senior Uncle Dan Lingsheng and the others."
"Master Uncle Dan Lingsheng?" The shadow of that strict but fair person appeared in Luo Bei's mind, and suddenly he felt a thump in his heart, and turned his head, "What kind of sect is Zhaoyao Mountain?"
"I heard that it is a land occupied by monsters. I don't know what it is."
"Then why do they have conflicts with our Shushan? Has our Shushan always had a feud with them?" Miao Mu couldn't help asking secretly.
"I don't know..."
"Now you can talk as much as you want, and I won't stop you." Ming Hao, who was leading the way, paused suddenly, and made a cold voice without looking back, "But when we reach the boundary of Tianqing Peak, if If you make any more noise, I will immediately disqualify you from the trial."
"Uncle Minghao, your words are unreasonable again. What if there is any sound, if someone really didn't eat before coming, and will be hungry later, what should I do?"
Caishu originally wanted to say this in secret, but when she thought of Dan Lingsheng who was even darker than Minghao but seemed to treat them well, she was a little dazed. Nothing left.
***
Tianqing Peak, a mountain located on the east side, is usually a forbidden area for ordinary disciples.
"what is that?"
From a distance, Luobei could see a mountain peak that was not tall among the Shu Mountains, but the top of this mountain peak was two canyons joined together, like two huge clam shells, which contained a bright pearl. The temple, and there is a thin white line pouring down, it is a beautiful waterfall, but what attracts Luobei is the dozens of purple lines rushing out of the huge square that is level with the sea of clouds. gas smoke.
When he got closer, Luo Bei could see clearly that around the square, there was a huge square tripod every ten or twenty feet, and the purple smoke that shot straight into the sky came from these tripods.
After walking a few hundred steps, Luo Bei, Cai Shu and the others really saw the scene on the square clearly, and these Ge Li's disciples all involuntarily took a deep breath.
The square in front of me with a radius of hundreds of feet is almost exactly at the same level as the sea of clouds. On the entire ground, there is a faint mist like a veil floating. This is the legend of immortality.
The ground of the entire square is cold under the feet, and it is all made of gold and iron, shining with a faint luster. This is the firmness, coldness and sharpness of Shushan Mountain.
The huge square tripods every twenty feet are the thickness of Shushan Mountain for thousands of years.
The continuous stove fire on the burning fire peak, the purple smoke rising from the square tripod.
The wind blows and the water rises, and the purple air comes from the east.
Yu Ruochen, who was wearing a purple Taoist robe, stood in the middle of the square, quietly watching Luo Bei and other Geli disciples walking into the square.
Standing behind him are Yan Jingxie, Zong Lezhen, and Bingzhuyun who are in charge of Geli, Jingshen, and Tianzhu respectively.
Zong Lezhen and Bingzhuyun, who were dressed in black Taoist robes and scarlet red Taoist robes respectively, had never been seen in Luobei before, these two legendary figures whose cultivation bases were not below Kunlun's top ten golden immortals.
It's just that there are too many people he hasn't seen at the moment.
Behind Yu Ruochen and the three of them, thousands of Shushan disciples stood densely.
Except for the new disciples, the people of Shushan Sect usually have no restrictions on clothing, but today, these thousands of disciples standing solemnly behind Yu Ruochen and others are all neatly dressed, wearing blue, black and red Taoist robes.
Solemn and majestic, awe-inspiring.
Just the sight like this made the pride feel like a mystery, and he couldn't help but feel a little dry in his mouth.
Looking at the disciples of Geli, Jingshen, and Tianzhu who arrived one after another, Yu Ruochen had a warm look in his eyes.
Because he thought that many years ago, he was just like them, looking at such a scene in shock.
But the more so, the more he couldn't allow Shushan to lose today's days in his hands.
"It's time to start!"
He slowly said this sentence to Yan Jingxie beside him.
The voice was not loud, but the words struck everyone's ears like gold and iron.
When he said these words, his eyes instantly became cold and sharp, and a murderous intent that he had never seen before flashed and disappeared in his eyes. An invisible breath, as sharp as a sword, as sharp as a wolf's smoke issued from him, straight to the sky.
Yan Jingxie, who had been standing coldly beside him, nodded, his cold and sharp aura swept away all the gentleness on the field, his hand seemed to just flip over, from his hand, to a hundred miles away In the air, it suddenly seemed like an invisible and transparent giant sword.
Transparent and crystal-like, the huge swords gathered across hundreds of miles disappeared in a flash, and disappeared in an instant, but on the distant mountain peaks, the sound of drums resounded throughout the entire Shu Mountain.
Luo Bei and the others watched in astonishment as Yan Jingxie congealed a giant sword that was hundreds of miles long out of thin air, and heard thunderous drums rolling towards him. Suddenly, like a mirage, a hundred miles away In the void, it seems that there is an extra mountain peak out of thin air.
"This mountain was hidden by the magic circle, and he let go of the magic circle with this kind of sword energy."
Luo Bei looked at the white mountain that seemed to appear out of nowhere, and just when such a thought appeared in his mind, Yu Ruochen saluted that mountain from afar, and said solemnly: "That mountain belongs to my predecessors in Shushan. The place where the sword is buried, as long as you can reach the sword tower in that mountain from here today, you can choose a flying sword yourself."
"As long as you can get there, can you choose a flying sword yourself?"
"So simple?"
All the new disciples present had just had such thoughts in their hearts, Bing Zhuyun, who was standing next to Yan Jingxie with his hands down, suddenly shook his hand and spilled nearly a hundred golden beans. And as soon as these beans landed, there was a brilliant silver light, and they turned into golden armored generals covered in golden armor and holding two golden swords.
"Scattering beans into soldiers?"
Seeing such a strange appearance, Luo Bei couldn't help but think of a spell he had read from the Shushan classics.
All of a sudden, there were countless rows of golden armored generals standing on the square, and the cold light flickering on the golden sword made people stop breathing.
At this moment, Zong Leliu, a Taoist with a white face and slightly fat face in a black gown, waved his hand, and a red light flickered, just like the first day he went to the Candle Peak to search for medicinal herbs. Quietly hung a red jade tablet two fingers thick.
"One piece each."
Reaching out to catch the red jade tablet that Zong Lezhen sprinkled in front of him, Luo Bei felt a coldness in his palm, as if his own blood had been sucked in. At this moment, Luo Bei saw that those golden generals standing on the square all shot out strange red light from their dark eye holes. The entire square seemed to have turned into a tragic battlefield in an instant, with a heavy killing atmosphere like a mountain.
"This doesn't seem to be some kind of magic spell, but some kind of magic weapon! What is this jade card!"
Luo Bei, Cai Shu, and Lin Hang had just glanced at each other, and Luo Bei had such thoughts in his mind, and he heard Yan Jingxie say coldly, "As long as you leave Tianqing Peak, these generals will be Start chasing and killing you. If you can't escape, just crush the red jade tablet in your hand, and these generals will not attack you again."
These golden armored generals are Bingzhuyun's favorite magic weapon, the Twelve Yuan Chen Vientiane generals.
This year's trial was to escape into Tianjian Peak under the pursuit of the golden armored general transformed from this magic weapon.
If he was blocked by these golden armored generals and couldn't escape to Tianjian Peak, then he obviously failed the test and couldn't get a sword embryo!
Although most of the thousands of disciples present saw that some of these golden armored generals had been sealed by Bing Zhuyun in advance, they were also clear in their hearts. The trial two years ago was only the bronze armor controlled by talismans. It’s just a corpse, those bronze armored corpses borrowed from the Ban’s family outside the Shushan Mountain, no matter what they are, are far from this golden armored god general. The difficulty of this trial is definitely more difficult than before. times!
And many disciples who had already inquired clearly about the content of the last trial, and even secretly prepared a lot of materials to deal with the bronze armored corpse, saw the strange red light in their eyes and the height of the golden armored general. The cold light on the golden sword on both hands made his face even paler.
