The Prince of the World

Chapter 21: Promotion assessment

Views:

The Sutra Pavilion, where the sect's inheritance is located, is the sect's top priority.

Therefore, the Sutra Pavilion is extremely tightly guarded. It is said that the person guarding the Sutra Pavilion is an elder with secret realm cultivation.

The guards checked Yan Li's identity token before allowing him to enter the Sutra Pavilion.

The Dahuang Palace Sutra Pavilion is divided into twelve floors. The single floor is for practicing exercises, and the double floor is for martial arts.

Outer disciples who are new to the sect can enter the Sutra Pavilion for free and choose a Kung Fu and martial arts technique. If they want to enter again, they have to pay a certain amount of merit points.

In his previous life, Yan Li had entered the Scripture-Depository Pavilion many times. When he stepped into the courtyard of the Scripture-Depository Pavilion, he suddenly remembered a problem that he had ignored: that is, he was still an outer disciple and was not qualified to enter the third and third floors of the Scripture-Depository Pavilion. Four floors.

The sect has a clear rule that outer sect disciples are only allowed to enter the first and second floors.

Thinking of this, he planned to leave, but he thought that since he was here, there was no reason to go back empty-handed.

"Sand...sand...sand!"

Yan Li looked up and saw a rickety old man in gray clothes in the courtyard of the Jinglou, slowly waving a broom to sweep away the fallen leaves.

In a daze, he had a feeling that there was an indescribable special rhythm to the old handyman's messy and unstructured movements of sweeping fallen leaves. However, when he took a closer look, he found nothing.

Just as the other party looked up, Yan Li couldn't help but smile and nodded to him, and then strode into the Scripture Depository.

There are hundreds of bookshelves made of ironwood on the first floor of the Sutra Collection Building. The bookshelves are densely packed with numerous exercises, numbering in the tens of thousands.

This shows how rich the Dahuang Palace’s heritage is.

Among these tens of thousands of exercises, some were created by senior masters of Dahuang Palace, while the rest were collected by major disciples who went out to practice.

As the saying goes, learning from the strengths of others, the senior officials of Dahuang Palace encourage their disciples to collect other skills. At the same time, they will reward corresponding merit points according to the level of the skills.

This leads to the extremely large number of low-level cultivation techniques in the Great Desolate Palace. With so many techniques, the selectivity becomes extremely large. Often some inexperienced outer disciples enter the Sutra Pavilion for the first time and have not yet made up their minds about which technique to choose. You get a reminder that time is up.

Yan Li was now a Yuan realm warrior, so naturally he had no use for these low-level techniques. He didn't stay on the first floor for long before heading straight to the second floor.

The second floor is different from the first floor, but various martial arts are displayed here.

In the Tianhuang Continent, the country was founded on martial arts, with martial arts as its foundation, and all the people were martial arts. Therefore, over tens of thousands of years, the martial arts skills in the entire Wilderness Continent can be said to be endless.

Mildly accomplished martial artists like to create their own martial arts.

Although there are many martial arts on the second floor, reaching tens of thousands, Yan Li doesn't like them very much because these martial arts are all yellow-level martial arts.

He walked straight to a dilapidated bookshelf at the innermost part of the second floor. This bookshelf contained different martial arts skills from the other bookshelves. It only contained some incomplete martial arts skills.

Although these martial arts are incomplete, they cannot be underestimated.

Because Yan Li had heard some legends in his previous life, there were several core disciples who had read the incomplete secret books on the second floor and created their own powerful martial arts.

Of course, this is just a legend, and its authenticity needs to be verified. Yan Li was just trying to get lucky, and he didn't have big expectations in his heart.

He glanced at the "Shadowless Sword Fragment", "The Killing Fist Fragment", "Tianyin Sword Fragment", "Chaos Sword Fragment", "Destroying God Sword Fragment" and other martial arts fragments that numbered in the thousands.

Finally, Yan Li's eyes fell on a fragment at the bottom of the bookshelf, at the edge. For some reason, he became interested in this fragment.

He bent down and pulled out the martial arts book.

This is a fragmented secret book called "Tianhuang Sword". Turn over the yellowed paper: there are only three moves in the entire sword technique.

The first move: shadow stab

The second move: air stab

The third move: soul stab

Yan Li frowned slightly. After carefully studying the three sword techniques, he found that there was a strong sense of dissonance in the sword moves. Regardless of the speed and angle of the moves, they felt very weird.

If I had to use one word to describe this incomplete swordsmanship, it would be "cunning".

Referring to the sword, Yan Li tried a few gestures and felt a strong sense of nausea in his heart.

He was horrified: What kind of sword technique is this? It’s so weird!

It took a while after the practice stopped before the nauseating feeling slowly disappeared.

After staring at the three-move sword technique for a moment, Yan Li suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, this sword technique should have a matching technique before it can be used.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. Although the three sword techniques were quite strange and inconsistent, in terms of quality, it was definitely a very superb sword technique.

However, no matter how superb the sword technique is, it is still a discarded martial skill if it cannot be practiced. No wonder it is placed on the second level.

Putting this sword technique back to its original position, Yan Li planned to leave the Sutra Pavilion and wait until he was promoted to an inner disciple.

Choose the appropriate exercises to practice on the third floor.

After walking out of the Scripture-Depository Pavilion, Yan Li subconsciously searched for the figure of the old handyman in gray, but when he didn't find it, he left the Scripture-Depository Pavilion and went straight to the assessment hall.

The assessment hall is magnificently built, but there are not many people in it. Apart from an elder who serves as a staple food, there are only two deacons.

"Outer disciple Yan Li has met two deacons."

Entering the main hall and walking up to the two deacons, he greeted them with sect etiquette.

"Yan Li, are you here for the promotion assessment?" The two deacons' eyes fell on Yan Li.

Yan Li nodded.

"Come on, do your best to infuse your true energy." One of the deacons took out a stick that was one foot long with nine gems of different colors inlaid on it and handed it to Yan Li.

Yan Li knew that this stick was called a Zhenqi stick, and it was specially used to test the disciple's cultivation.

After taking the Zhenqi stick, the sea of Qi in Yanli's Dantian began to circulate rapidly. A powerful flow of Zhenqi flowed along the meridians, into the palm of the hand, and was finally input into the Zhenqi stick.

In an instant, the infuriating stick shined brightly, and all nine gems on it burst into dazzling light.

The two deacons who originally didn't care much about it suddenly widened their eyes and stared at the Qi Bang in Yan Li's hand. After a long while, they seemed to mutter to themselves, "Oh my God, all nine stars are shining brightly. Is it a sea of air made up of nine cyclones?"

As mentioned before, the stronger the Qi Sea is, the more outstanding the qualifications are. Generally, Yuan realm warriors use three cyclones to build the Qi Sea, but Yanli has nine, which is six more than them.

In other words, his qi sea alone is equivalent to three Yuan realm warriors, but often, one plus one does not equal two, but greater and two!

"I'll inform Elder Xuan!"

A deacon woke up and ran towards the side hall.

Yan Li didn't wait long before his eyes blurred, and then his wrist tightened and he was caught.

He subconsciously wanted to struggle, but he felt a powerful energy break into his body, sealing his whole body and making him unable to move. However, he quickly calmed down, because the one who suddenly appeared and grabbed his wrist was An old man with gray hair and a ruddy complexion.

He recognized this old man as Yin Changkong, the elder of the Assessment Hall.

"Hahaha! It really is nine cyclones!"

Immediately, a burst of extremely loud laughter broke out in his ears, causing his eardrums to itch.
