Cangxi Prefecture has a towering terrain and continuous mountains. However, if someone asks where the highest mountain is, people will all point to one place.

A high mountain stands like a sword, piercing through the clouds and standing on the plateau. There is a sect in the mountain called Spirit Sword Sect.

On the top of Lingjian Mountain, in an exquisite bamboo room, an old man wearing a sword-shaped hairpin looked at the clear starry sky, holding a bright silver long sword in his hand, the blade reflected starlight, with exquisite and complicated textures It flows like a wave, slowly upwards from the hilt of the sword, but stops abruptly halfway through.

The old man frowned, secretly thinking of an ominous omen.

"The sword light is interrupted, this is the sign of premature death, senior brother, are you telling your own fortune?" Following a voice behind him, a barefoot woman in a white robe was holding a khaki wine gourd in one hand, Holding a turquoise bamboo sword upside down, he appeared behind the old stargazer with the air of smoking and drinking.

The stargazing old man's deduction was interrupted, and he had to adjust his breath to stop work, and exhaled a foul breath from his mouth.

"Fifth Junior Sister, remember to knock on the door next time."

"I knocked when I was going out."

"I meant my door, not yours."

The master sighed again: "Why do you want me?"

"Borrow money."

"... If I remember correctly, you still owe me 20,000 spirit stones." The headman said with serious eyes.

The woman said bitterly and bitterly: "Oh, it's not that our Spirit Sword Sect is so poor, think of me as the fifth elder of the sect, the second master of the sect, the monthly offerings are only five hundred spirit stones, how long will it take to pay it off? Debt. Why don't you give me your seat, senior brother, and I can embezzle public funds to pay back the money... "

"Junior sister, if you really want to be the master, then..."

"Then you will give way to me? Brother, you are really kind and righteous!"

"I just want to say, if you want to be the head of the sect, you should stop drinking, lusting and making money first, retreat and cultivate for three to five years, and it will not be too late if you have achieved the achievements of the Nascent Soul Stage."

The woman in white immediately pretended that nothing happened: "Brother, lend me money."

"..."

"...Speaking of who you were divining just now, you look like you died young."

The senior brother in charge said in a deep voice, "Spirit Sword Sect."

Fifth Junior Sister's complexion changed, and she put down the drunken dispute: "No way!? The Spirit Sword Sect is about to be wiped out?!"

"It's not just the spirit sword faction. I'm afraid this sword light refers to the entire world of cultivating immortals. Do you still remember the legendary era of the end of the law... Alas, this sword light is broken from one-third of the way. I am afraid that the peaceful days of the world of cultivating immortals are only three years old." Five years. Could it be that one billion spiritual stones are really going to be used to sponsor the Ten Thousand Immortals League to repair the five prehistoric arks?"

"Spiritual Sword Sect's Star Divergence Technique is one of the few deduction methods in the world of cultivating immortals, and senior brother is the best among them, and he can't make mistakes. However, the fairy sword that senior brother just postponed to use doesn't seem to be the Nian Sword."

The senior brother in charge was stunned: "Isn't it the Nian sword?" He quickly lowered his head to look carefully, and the hilt of the sword was indeed not the word Nian, but...

At the next moment, the old man who had cultivated at the stage of transforming gods and was as powerful as the land of a state uttered a horrified cry: "How could it be a tea sword!? Doesn't this mean that there are only three or five cups of tea before the end of the law!?"

Fifth Junior Sister was also frightened, the wine gourd fell to the ground with a thud, and the golden wine juice gurgled out, but she didn't care.

"Senior Sect Master, how many times have I told you to be nearsighted and just wear glasses honestly? You can't tell the difference between years and tea... Forget it, now you only have a few cups of tea to start the Dharma-Ending Age, Senior Brother! Hurry up and pass the position to me, so that I can die a worthy death."

"...Even if I die, I will not shame the Spirit Sword Sect."

"I don't want to die with a monthly salary of five hundred spirit stones! I will die with regret!"

During the quarrel, time flies, and the last three cups of tea slip away quietly.

On the top of Lingjian Mountain, the place closest to the starry sky, the bright starry sky is extraordinarily dazzling, Zhoutian Star Dou revolves slowly and firmly, every star is shaking in a hurry, like pollen particles in the water observed under the microscopic mirror, That was a vision that had never happened in the Kyushu Continent for thousands of years.

The brothers and sisters looked at each other with the same shock in their hearts.

The star expansion technique is indeed true. The Dharma-ending Era has just casually descended on Kyushu, ready to mercilessly erase everything in the world of cultivating immortals.

At the last moment, the sect master brother spoke in a strange and deep voice.

"Junior Sister, there is something I wanted to say a hundred years ago but never had the chance. Now that the end of the Dharma is imminent..."

With the old but magnetic voice of the master, the words full of true feelings were sent to the ear of the other party. The starry sky trembled more and more intensely.

"I think it's time to tell you my truth."

At the last moment, the stars moved, the stars bloomed like flowers, and the night sky was as bright as day. A broom-like meteor pierced the sky.

It was Halley's Comet, the vanguard of the doomsday in the legend. When the comet landed, the vitality of the heavens and the earth dried up, and the end of the Dharma Era came... Lingjian Mountain was spread on the top of the mountain, and the great array that resisted the wind of the nine heavens trembled suddenly, as if the sky was about to collapse.

The bright eyes of the woman in white turned, and the reflection of a golden core was reflected in her eyes, spinning wildly. The bamboo sword dragged upside down was dragged by her, and it was drawn lazily upwards, but it brought a curtain of light covering the sky, as if it wanted to support the collapsed sky. stand up.

However, the sky did not change after all, the meteor passed by the mainland of Kyushu, and after the stars moved, everything returned to silence.

Fifth Junior Sister swung the bamboo sword from side to side in amazement, sensing the changes in the vitality of the world like a tentacle.

"It seems... all right?"

The woman then turned back to the senior brother who was in charge of the sect for verification. The senior brother's cultivation base was two realms higher than hers - although the woman would not be afraid of a real fight - he became an authority on the changes in the world.

The senior brother in charge looked lonely: "At least it's not the Dharma-ending era."

"Oh, the Great Expansion Technique can also make mistakes? But as long as it's okay, senior brother, why do you seem so disappointed?"

"nothing."

"It's rare to avoid the doomsday, so let's celebrate by reducing the debt."

"..."

After the doomsday crisis passed, thinking of the surging passion just now, the leader could only sigh in his heart. In addition, there are more doubts.

The Great Expansion Technique is not absolute, but the premonition of the day is not wrong, just now, the Kyushu Continent is really passing by from the end of the world.

For this crisis that came suddenly and went even more suddenly, the head of the sect was completely at a loss.

But one thing is certain, the influence it brings is penetrating the mainland of Kyushu little by little.

The old man looked up at the vast galaxy, sighed, and fiddled with the stars and swords again in his hands. After pondering for a long time, he said, "Survivors will have future blessings. After this crisis is over, it is likely to usher in the golden age of the world of cultivating immortals... by the way , when was the last time we held the Immortal Ascension Conference?"

Fifth Junior Sister opened her eyes wide: "Fresh, fresh food meeting?" Drooling was already involuntary while speaking.

The old man ignored her, and counted with his fingers: "At least it has been more than a hundred years, and the next time, it will be twelve years later, when the changes in the world should also appear, don't expect too much, if you can do it again Reviving the prosperity of a hundred years ago, there is hope for the revival of the Spirit Sword Sect."

When mentioning the revival of the sect, the smile on Fifth Junior Sister's face faded away, and she yawned for a long time, to which the old man just let out a wry smile.

"The heyday of a hundred years ago was missed by us. Only ten people of our generation are left in the golden generation. This time, no matter what..."

So Fifth Junior Sister couldn't even yawn, she let out a cold snort, turned and left.

At the same time, at the foot of Lingjian Mountain, in an unknown corner of Cangxi Prefecture, a baby was born with a loud cry.

——

As time goes by, the news that Halley's Comet passed by the mainland of Kyushu has become an anecdote. Few people know that the world they live in was once extremely close to destruction.

The people in Cangxi Prefecture are only concerned about one thing. The Immortal Ascension Conference of the Spirit Sword Sect, which has been suspended for nearly a hundred years, will be at the beginning of next month. I don't know who can stand out.

The so-called Immortal Ascension Conference is actually a grand ceremony for recruiting newcomers to the Cultivation of Immortals sect. Joining the sect opens the road of cultivation and leads directly to the avenue of the immortal family. However, it is no longer the age of ancient mythology, and only the grand ceremonies of the five top sects in the world of cultivating immortals are eligible to be called the Ascension to Immortals Conference.

The largest sect in the world of cultivating immortals, Shengjing Xianmen, which occupies the land of Zhongzhou; Kunlun Xianshan, which is known as the origin of cultivating immortals; Junhuang Mountain; also, if you want no one, no money, no foundation, no inheritance, God knows why it is listed as the Spirit Sword Sect by the Ten Thousand Immortals League!

The Spirit Sword Sect has few people and keeps a low profile. When it comes to sect power, not to mention the four top sects, it seems to be inferior to the ordinary top-notch sects. It has been a long, long time since the Immortal Realm held an Immortal Ascension Conference.

The news that the Spirit Sword Sect held the Immortal Ascension Conference has been circulating in Kyushu three years ago, and the age is less than twelve, regardless of the other conditions. Compared with other sects that pay attention to family background to the eighteenth generation of ancestors, it is simply unreasonable. As a result, aspiring young people all over the world are moved after hearing the news, villagers in remote mountain villages, sons of wealthy families and even princes of a country... The temptation of immortality is so strong that everything in the mortal world is dull compared to it.

At this time, there was still more than a week before the conference, and Lingxi Town under Lingjian Mountain was already overcrowded. Lingxi Town, as the transit point between the gate of Lingjian Mountain and the mortal world, has a permanent population of only a few hundred people, but now the floating population tends to exceed 10,000 people. At this time, not to mention the few inns, even the public toilets were set up with tents as a stopgap.

With so many people and so little land, bumps and bumps are unavoidable, especially the only Rujia inn in the town that can stand on the table is a battleground for military strategists.

boom!

In front of the inn, three figures flew out and rolled into balls on the ground. Two of them were tall and yelled with nosebleeds.

"Little girl, my master is the national teacher of the Canglan country, how dare you be so rude to us!?"

The young man with short brown curly hair who was obviously the young master was supported by the two of them to stand up. While bleeding from his nose, he looked at the sneering proprietress inside the inn door with unbelievably dull eyes.

He, Wen Bao, was so old that even his father had never hit him. Unexpectedly, he was slapped so hard by an inn proprietress!

The proprietress is not old, she looks only fourteen or fifteen years old, she wears a coarse cloth robe and an oily apron, but she looks proudly like a princess.

"Isn't the national teacher amazing? Your emperor comes and hits the same way! I said that this place is full of people, can't you understand people's words!? Now the princes of the Ming Dynasty are all squatting in the firewood room. The natives also want to force them to live in a house!? Isn’t it owed to smoke!? Is the whole Canglan country so uneducated?”

Wen Bao is a man of great national integrity. He was furious and roared loudly: "How dare you insult our Canglan Country!? Don't think that we are afraid of you just because you live in Lingxi Town! You..."

"Stop making a scene in front of my shop!"

Wen Bao hadn't finished speaking when he saw the proprietress frowned and swept her body away like the wind. The two bodyguards had superb martial arts skills, but they didn't have time to react. They watched the young master being kicked away like a sandbag. Gululu rolled down the ramp.

The proprietress is a businessman, and businessmen and people do good things. This kick looks heroic but soft. Wen Bao didn't feel much pain, but his whole body was numb and he couldn't move. He could only roll along the narrow ramp outside the shop. ah go ah go...

With the support of the bodyguards, Wen Bao returned to the door of the inn with a bruised nose and a swollen face. Although he wished to cut the proprietress into pieces, he didn't say a word, acquiescing to softness.

I can't accept it.

Lingxi Town is the transfer point between the gate of Lingjian Mountain and the mortal world. Under the protection of the gate, no grass or tree can be damaged by outsiders, let alone the proprietress of the inn. In the past few days, there is no one who does not believe in evil. The head of the bodyguard of the Crown Prince of Yan made trouble after drinking, and was beheaded by a passing monk with a sword. Compared with the Great Yan Kingdom in half a state, the Canglan Kingdom is indeed a small country, not to mention that the son of the national teacher is far inferior to the prince of a country.

Wen Bao hated and regretted in his heart. He knew the rules of Lingxi Town before they came. Before the meeting, gather in Lingxi Town. The family members of the applicants are not allowed to accompany them. There are at most two bodyguards. Then... abide by all the rules of the town.

If it weren't for the fact that the few people were so tired after traveling thousands of miles, and the proprietress looked like a village girl who was both rustic and fierce, the few people wouldn't be excited to make a fuss in the store. Now I don't know if the Lingjian Mountain Gate has already known about it. But the future is always cast a shadow.

The two bodyguards hesitated to speak, Wen Bao sighed in his heart when he saw this, he wanted to persuade himself to make amends, he is just the son of a dignified national teacher, and his status in Canglan country is even higher than the crown prince, and now he wants to bow his head to a village girl, I'm so upset!

Standing at the door of the shop, Wen Bao took a few deep breaths, his mood gradually calmed down, he didn't think about the humiliation just now, and he didn't look at the malicious and mocking eyes around him—these teenagers who are also of noble birth can usually play nice if they are at home. Chengfu, however, has no elders to discipline at this time, and there are many enemies. When attacking competitors, they spare no effort.

When Wen Bao walked into the inn, there was already a smile on his face, but the smile only lasted for a while.

Because the proprietress in front of the counter was also smiling, a far more sincere smile than him, and the smile was aimed at a young man who seemed to be eleven or twelve years old and dressed in plain clothes.

"Okay, one of the upper rooms, please wait a moment, and let someone clean it up."

Wen Bao immediately felt the grief and indignation of being betrayed by others, one room! ? Didn't it just say that the house is full, and even the princes of the Ming Kingdom live in the firewood house? What's going on with this upper room now

But this time, before Wen Bao came out, the other people in the lobby were filled with grief and indignation: "Miss Boss! What do you mean!?"

"Didn't you say you didn't have a house? Young master, I spent a thousand taels of silver and can't even live in a firewood house. What qualifications does he have to live in a house!?"

"Even if it's the Spirit Sword Sect, you have to be reasonable, right?"

"Boss, give me an explanation!"

Hearing the commotion in the lobby, the proprietress's professional smile suddenly turned into a icy wind and snow: "What's the noise? If you don't want to stay, you can get out! Do you think I am willing to serve you bastards?"

The proprietress' bad attitude immediately aroused public outrage. Seeing that a massacre was about to happen, some well-meaning locals passing by on the street pointed to the sign outside the door: "You foreigners, if you are not blind, just look carefully."

Immediately, someone ran out to watch, only to see Fengyin written next to the words Rujia Inn, signed by the person who carried the word.

Fengyin, when put out alone, is just a slightly literary term, but if you add the word "real person" after Fengyin, you will be a well-known peerless master in the world of cultivating immortals.

How tall is it? Lingjian Mountain is so high, living on the top of Lingjian Mountain, and being the head of a sect, this is Master Fengyin.

Protected by the inscription written by the head of the spirit sword, the princes were immediately reduced to the nuns of the crowd, and a group of people were ashamed and shameless.

However, the anger was hard to calm, and the focus of resentment shifted to the young man. The so-called accusation, the young man who was registering at the counter was sharp and turned his head. Although it is not very luxurious, it is clean and neat, which complements its people.

However, when it comes to temperament, how are the taizidans present inferior? After a brief shock, resentment boiled up again.

The boy raised his brows, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he coughed.

"Things are not what you imagined."

After a pause, he said again.

"I have no friendship with the proprietress."

As soon as this remark came out, almost everyone had a thought in their minds: Could it be that this person has an affair with that little proprietress!

This time, the anger of the tai sons and daughters dissipated a little, because, since there is an affair, there is nothing to do.

It's just that the proprietress behind the counter has flushed cheeks, like a volcano erupting.

Fortunately, the boy changed the subject in time.

"Lingxi Town is holding an event with rewards for the Ascension to Immortals Conference. One of the rewards is the accommodation coupons of Home Inn."

Speaking of this, the proprietress also confirmed: "That's it, he came here with a lottery ticket, you bastards just shut up."

After a moment of silence in the lobby, someone got up to find fault.

"The activities in Lingxi Town are clearly written on the leaflets distributed at the gate of the town. I have read them in detail, but there is never any mention of accommodation vouchers."

Another person echoed: "Everyone has received the rewards you mentioned before. They are nothing more than souvenirs such as wood carvings and amulets, but I have never heard of accommodation coupons. There are dozens or hundreds of people in this lobby. Why are there only Can he get the lottery?"

The proprietress dismissed this kind of question at all, tilted her head, and showed a contemptuous smile of inadequacy and conspiracy.

On the contrary, the young man explained patiently: "Because this reward is hidden, it will not be given to you on the spot."

The prince who found fault sneered: "Then tell me, how do you send it to us?"

"Oh, here's the process. First, talk to the old man who is handing out leaflets at the gate of the town. He will tell you the story of the town and inform you about all the facilities in the town, including hotels, inns, grocery stores, etc...here Only after listening patiently can the next link be triggered."

Hearing this, the tài girls in the lobby were dumbfounded. The old man at the gate of the town was talking vaguely and ramblingly. He could introduce half an hour just by the gate of the town. Who has the time to listen to him tell the whole story of the town!

However, the forest is big, and there are all kinds of chickens.

"At that time, I also finished listening."

The princes turned their heads to look, and many gasped, because they had already recognized that it was Hai Yunfan, the second prince from the Yuntai Empire in Yunzhou.

The Yuntai Empire is one of the most powerful countries in the Kyushu Continent, and Hai Yunfan is the most outstanding of the emperor's many heirs. When he was ten years old, people believed that one day he would remove his elder brother from the position of crown prince .

Unexpectedly, this second prince left behind an empire and came here to seek immortality!

Hai Yunfan's eyes were serious: "I have heard the old man's story, but there is no next link."

In the end, the boy laughed: "Why did he tell you clearly what the next link is? You need to figure it out yourself. After the old man finishes telling the story, he will cough a few times and say that he is thirsty. At this time, he will give him water to drink. "

As a result, Hai Yunfan shook his head: "I also gave water at that time."

The boy said again: "Then the old man will say that after drinking the water, he feels hungry instead."

Hai Yunfan: "That's right, so I asked my servant to share the dry food I brought with him."

Teenager: "He'll say thank you, but he's obviously not happy with the food."

Hai Yunfan frowned: "...and then?"

"Then I have to ask, but what dissatisfaction do I have? The old man will say that there is no dissatisfaction, but I suddenly remembered the thousand-layer cake from Zhendong Liuji."

"Then...you're going to buy him a thousand-feuille cake? Will he give you a hotel voucher?"

"It's not that simple. After going to Liuji's dim sum shop, the owner will tell you that the mille-feuille cakes are sold out. Keep asking, and I learned that the owner of the teahouse bought mille-layer cakes for ten people in one go. Go to the teahouse, boss I am busy playing chess with the guest, so don't bother him with the mille-feuille cake at this time, but secretly help him win, and then you will get a free mille-feuille cake, give the mille-feuille cake to the old man at the door, and the old man will I will give you a letter of recommendation. With the letter of recommendation, you can find the mayor. The mayor wants you to collect materials... Then go to the tailor shop... Then go outside the village... After that... Finally, give the copper ring to the old man at the gate of the town, and you will be able to Got the accommodation voucher."

After finishing speaking, the only sound left in the hall was the rushing heartbeats of the crowd.

The people came from all over the world, they were in high positions, and although they were young, they had seen and heard of all the new things, but hearing the young man's story about the origin of this accommodation voucher, he felt it was inconceivable.

If this accommodation coupon was deliberately designed by Lingxi Town, then the designer must be an idiot, at least someone with a brain problem. Who would have imagined such a heinously complicated procedure? As smart and careful as Hai Yunfan, he could only follow the second step and couldn't follow, but there were at least a dozen steps waiting to be completed! One is more incredible than the other!

And that boy is not the brain of a normal person, for this accommodation ticket, he ran around the town and outside of the town for at least a whole day! What's more, from the beginning to the end, no one told him that he would be rewarded if he persisted! Why is he

Even Hai Yunfan couldn't help asking: "You knew all this in advance?"

The boy raised his eyebrows: "Why do you need to know in advance? Seeing a huge task chain in front of you, any qualified adventurer will go all the way to the end!"

After speaking, he turned around and went up to the second floor with Xiao Er, his back was indescribably chic.

Hai Yunfan frowned, the boy's tone was so natural, as if only the mentally retarded could not understand, but... he did not understand.

But this is irrelevant, a voucher for a room is actually not very important, what is important is, who is this young man

At this time, the young talents gathered in Lingxi Town, Hai Yunfan has information in his mind for any reputation or even some specialty, but the young man in front of him has never heard of it. It stands to reason that this incredible reasoning ability alone is not An unknown person... Thinking of this, Hai Yunfan felt more and more unpredictable about this person. It is rumored that in addition to the sons of secular dignitaries, there are also children of the Xiuxian family gathered here, could it be...

Not far from the counter, Hai Yunfan quietly glanced at the register, just in time to see the person's name.

"Wang Lu...? I haven't heard of it."

"Wang Lu?"

In the lobby, there were many taizi with eye-catching eyes, and Wang Lu's reputation quickly spread in whispers.

"Could it be that Wang family from Lingnan Prefecture? I heard that there are many strange people in that family, so it fits well."

"No, I heard that there is a big enmity between Lingnan State and the Spirit Sword Sect. The Xiuxian family will never allow future generations to worship under the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Or the Shengjing Wang family?"

"Don't go to Shengjing Xianmen, come to Spirit Sword Sect to apprentice? Although Shengjing Xianmen has not held the Immortal Ascension Conference for a long time, it is not so difficult for the descendants of Shengjing Wang's family to join the Shanmen."

"Hey, the wishful thinking you guys are discussing, I don't know if people use their real names."
