Su Yu was practicing in the palace when Qian Yu suddenly came over and said respectfully, "Son, Ye Qing, who you asked me to monitor, has now come to the Wuliang Dao Palace."
“He’s finally here”
Su Yu opened his eyes, slowly stood up, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
That branch of the Ye family has been destroyed for more than 100 years, and Ye Qing should have found out the truth. More than a hundred years ago, he made a bold statement that he would rather not stay in this Wuliang Taoist Palace.
Now that I have come to the Wuliang Dao Palace, I feel a little embarrassed.
However, according to the characteristics of the son of destiny, he should not become a disciple of Wuliang Dao Palace.
The position of the successor of Wuliang Dao Palace has not yet been determined.
There is no time limit for cultivation. Although there are still tens of thousands or even 100,000 years before the master dies due to old age, the position of successor must be determined in advance.
Not for anything else.
It is to consolidate the relationship within the Wuliang Dao Palace.
If the position of successor cannot be decided for a long time, there will be endless struggles within the Wuliang Dao Palace.
Because there is no time limit for spiritual practice, every practitioner has a very long lifespan, so time is not the most important thing for them.
Talent is the most important thing. If a person has great talent, he can still catch up even if he has practiced for many years longer than those around him.
Therefore, this time when Wuliang Dao Palace decided on the position of successor, it was also based on the other party’s talent, rather than on the other party’s cultivation.
However, it is not so easy to measure the strength of talent.
Therefore, the method used to determine the successor this time has not been announced to the public.
For this reason, the Elders' Hall of Wuliang Dao Palace also began to hold an emergency meeting.
In this magnificent hall, high-ranking figures of Wuliang Dao Palace gathered.
Each of them wore a Taoist robe and exuded a long aura.
"This time, the determination of the successor is different from the past. In the past, we could basically determine the successor based on the talents of many disciples. We did not need to explain to anyone outside the world the reasons for who we passed the throne to."
An elder spoke up.
"I agree. In the past, our Wuliang Dao Palace has never accepted a disciple like Su Yu, so we don't need to explain any election results to the outside world. This time we have to look after the Su family and take care of their face. Moreover, Su Yu has the dual talents of the Supreme Bone and the Hongmeng Sword Body. Such a disciple is very rare. If we don't pass the rumored position to him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the Su family."
The Great Elder spoke.
He really hopes that his apprentice can become the one who inherits the legacy.
Over the years, he has also carefully guided Su Yu.
You can teach many secret techniques to others and explain them to them.
However, this method cannot be used when facing Su Yu.
It is necessary to teach students in accordance with their aptitude. Every time he explains Taoism to Su Yu, he finds that his understanding is deeper than his.
The Great Elder often gained enlightenment from Su Yu's words.
So much so that most of the time he didn't even realize that he was still teaching Su Yu.
So much so that he was confused for a long time.
Finally I discovered that this was the power of the Supreme Bone.
With such a supreme being, he can be closer to the great Dao of heaven and earth, and all his understandings are closer to the understanding of the Supreme God King.
What is the concept of the Supreme God King? It is the highest level of cultivation in this world.
Although Su Yu’s current realm is not that of the Supreme God King, all his actions and all his cultivation paths are moving in this direction.
And there is another very important point, which is his Hongmeng Sword Body.
With this sword body, my understanding of sword cultivation will be more thorough.
The Great Elder had taught Su Yu many sword techniques many times, but each time Su Yu would point out the loopholes in the sword techniques and even come up with improved versions.
Of course there were also some sword techniques, and Su Yu did not raise any objections.
That sword technique was the one created by the former Supreme God King.
Su Yu did not raise any objection, but he felt it was very familiar, exactly as he had thought.
"If we only consider talent, the person who should be passed on this inheritance position is Su Yu."
Seeing that no one spoke, the Great Elder spoke again.
The headmaster nodded slightly in response.
"Su Yu has the distinguished status of the young master of the Su family. In addition, he has only been practicing in the lower realm for more than 20 years and has already ascended to the upper realm. With such a background and such a talent for cultivation, there is indeed no one more suitable to be the successor than Su Yu."
Seeing that the headmaster said so, the other elders nodded one after another, feeling that it was very appropriate.
Of course, there were also some elders who did not express any attitude.
Because they knew that in addition to Su Yu, there was another person whose talent was also very strong.
This person is Qin Xianer.
Her talent is very high, so high that it is somewhat abnormal. It is said that she has now reached the realm of true immortal.
It is higher than Su Yu's realm.
But this is also because she had spent her previous years practicing in the upper realm.
If she were to be placed in the lower realm to practice, it would be hard to say who would have higher talent.
The Great Elder sat in his seat without saying a word, but suddenly he moved and then spoke lightly.
“In the past, when we determined the position of successor, we always considered a person’s talent too much and ignored another very important issue, which is a person’s character.
If a person has bad conduct, no matter how powerful he is, it will be a great disaster for the Wuliang Heavenly Palace and even the entire lower world."
The status of the Grand Elder is so high that it even exceeds that of the Head Master.
So even though many people wanted to oppose his words, no one dared to speak out.
At this moment, the Great Elder could no longer hold back, and said with a gloomy face, "I wonder how the Great Elder can determine whether a person's behavior is improper?"
"Character can only be discovered after long-term observation, and it is urgent to determine the successor. The sooner the successor is determined, the more stable our Wuliang Dao Palace will be.
In the past, it’s not that people didn’t consider character issues, but rather that they first identified a person and then observed his character.
What we are doing now is not to observe the character, but to determine the position first."
The Great Elder was not convinced by the words of the Grand Elder.
Does he know what the Grand Elder is thinking
There have been many successors in the past generations. Many generations have set their sights on being the elders' apprentices.
Fortunately, the current headmaster does not have a close relationship with the Grand Elder, otherwise, the person who will inherit this time will be the Grand Elder's.
In Wuliang Dao Palace, he is the headmaster on the surface and his words are trustworthy.
However, all important decisions are made by the Supreme Elder.
Most of the time, he was the one controlling the entire Wuliang Dao Palace.
Many people know it, but no one says it out loud.
"If it were someone else, they wouldn't need to consider their character too much. But this Su Yu is different. Don't you know what kind of person Su Zongze is? This person is ruthless and cunning. In order to achieve his goals, he will do anything to achieve his goals. It can be said that he basically has no character.
As Su Yu is his son, he is not much better. If the elder is determined to speak for him, are you also such a person? "
The Grand Elder said solemnly.
The whole hall suddenly burst into a smell of sparks.
When the Great Elder heard this, his face turned gloomy. What did the Grand Elder mean
This is scolding him in front of so many people.
After all, he is the Grand Elder and holds a high position in the Wuliang Dao Palace.
But this supreme elder was too disrespectful to him.
However, he did not refute, after all, he was just a junior in front of Taishang Laojun.
"Stop arguing. We are only here to discuss countermeasures, not to quarrel or criticize anyone's behavior. We cannot ignore the Su family, and we have to be on guard against Su Yu, so this is an opportunity to choose the successor.
We need to break away from the past and come up with a foolproof plan.”
The headmaster watched the two quarreling and tried to persuade them.
Both sides have considerable influence in the Wuliang Dao Palace.
Especially the supreme elder.
However, the words spoken by the Supreme Elder just now did seem a bit too senior.
Taking advantage of his status as an elder, he actually began to scold the chief elder.
And it was an unfounded reprimand.
This is really not in line with the style of the monks of Wuliang Dao Palace.
"Why don't we let all the disciples go out for trials? I heard that you opened the Secret Realm of the Supreme Dragon King in the Blood Moon Mountains."
Just then, an elder said.
“The Secret Realm of the Supreme Dragon King
The headmaster fell into deep thought and said, "The Supreme Dragon King was a supreme god king in the dragon clan. He died for some unknown reason and left behind a secret realm. I never thought that this secret realm would be opened again. It opens once every 10,000 years. This generation of disciples is lucky to have encountered such an opportunity. In this case, let's do as the elder says, enter the secret realm, and obtain the Dragon King Secret Book inside."
"It's just that this Dragon King Secret Book is a legendary thing and no one can obtain it. If none of our disciples have obtained the Dragon King Secret Book, how can we determine the position of inheritance?"
An elder immediately raised a question.
The head master was very clear about this doubt. It was true that the Dragon King Secret Realm had been opened many times, but so far, no one had obtained the legendary Dragon King Secret Book.
"If no disciple obtains the Dragon King Secret Book this time, then the position of inheritance will be temporarily uncertain. After all, the position of inheritance is very important and cannot be easily determined. It is related to the future of our Wuliang Dao Palace.
Moreover, cultivation does not take time, so I believe that waiting for a few hundred years will not be a problem for these cultivators. It may affect the stability of our Wuliang Dao Palace, but it will be much less troublesome than randomly determining a successor."
The head teacher also spoke frankly.
He did not make any excuses about the complicated and intense power dynamics within the Wuliang Taoist Palace.
This trait has become common knowledge and there is no need to conceal it.
Even people from outside know that there are complicated forces and undercurrents within the Wuliang Dao Palace.
The Great Elder nodded slightly when he heard this: "But this trip to the secret realm requires a leader."
As soon as these words fell.
The Grand Elder immediately said, "Why don't I lead the team? I have been in the Wuliang Dao Palace for thousands of years and have never been out. I don't know what the outside world is like now, and I don't know how many thousands of years my old bones can live.
I don’t have much time left, and I want to go out and have a look. I hope no one will compete with me, an old man, for the position of leader this time.”
The Grand Elder even said such words.
The other elders had no choice but to remain silent.
"Since everyone has no objection, I will be the leader this time. I heard that Su Yu is very talented, and I have never met him. I might as well take this opportunity to get to know this young man. If he is really as good as the great elder said, I have no objection to giving the inheritance to Su Yu."
"But if this guy is indeed of bad character, then I will collect the evidence. If the Su family blames me for not choosing Su Yu as the successor, then I will use the evidence to prove it to them."
The Grand Elder said.
No one else had any objection to this.
Just think that the Supreme Elder is confused.
The Supreme Elder has been practicing for countless tens of thousands of years, and he can’t remember how many tens of thousands of years it is.
And his realm is just the Divine King Mirror.
A close master beside Su Yu, his strength has reached the level of God King.
What's more, the head of the Su family is now at the Divine Emperor level.
This is not something that Wuliang Dao Palace can afford to offend.
The Supreme Elder also needs to collect evidence of Su Yu's misconduct.
This is really ridiculous.
Even if we have this kind of evidence, what can we do
Is it necessary to argue with the Su family? The Su family has such strength, do they need to argue with her
Although the Grand Elder was old, his words seemed very childish, and did not seem like something that could be said by someone who had lived for countless tens of thousands of years.
The headmaster did not take these remarks to heart.
There is no way to argue with this supreme elder.
Since he wants to do it, we can only let him do it.
If he offended the Su family this time, it was his own business. If the two sides really came into conflict, the Wuliang Dao Palace would not protect its own supreme elder.
Many elders have been patient with this old man for many years, and now they don't want to tolerate him any longer. They even hope that he will do something ridiculous so that he can be beaten by the outside world and reflect on himself.
"This time, our Wuliang Dao Palace sent out a genius. The talents of Su Yu and Qin Xian'er alone are incredibly amazing, and the luck of these two is very special, especially Su Yu's luck, which I cannot fathom.
No one knows whether his luck is good or bad, the cloud of luck above his head is actually gray.
Qin Xian'er's luck is normal, and he is a person of great luck. If he goes out to train this time, he may get a great opportunity, and he may even get the Dragon King Secret Book."
One of the elders practiced the art of qi-gazing, and he explained it to everyone.
Hearing this, a strong sense of anticipation rose in the hearts of every elder.
With Su Yu and Qin Xian'er going out to gain experience this time, the reputation of Wuliang Dao Palace will surely spread again.
I really don’t know what kind of exciting fight I will encounter at that time.
The meeting ended like this, and there is still some time before the trial begins.
The selection method for the successor position was thus determined.
When the Supreme Elder returned, he was extremely angry. He immediately began to sit cross-legged and recite scriptures before he calmed himself down.
"Is this great elder planning to rebel?"
The Grand Elder groaned.
Every time a meeting was held, no one dared to question his opinions.
Even the head teacher is like this.
However, this time the Great Elder openly opposed him, which clearly showed that he did not take him seriously.
He has been in this Wuliang Dao Palace for who knows how many tens of thousands of years
I have witnessed the rotation of head teachers one after another.
He also participates in every generation of inheritors.
Every time a meeting is held, who dares to publicly offend him
This time, the Great Elder actually took the lead.
The Grand Elder had a hint of cruelty on his lips.
“This Su Yu had a demon bone when he was born, and he had to dig out someone else’s supreme bone to temporarily suppress his own demonic nature. It has been more than 100 years since this happened, and he still remembers it clearly.
Due to the huge influence of the Su family, other elders in the Wuliang Dao Palace also knew about this matter, but these elders never talked about it.
Su Yu is a demon. The demon bone in his body is extremely dangerous. He might burst out with demonic nature one day. He has lost his mind. How can we let such a person be the successor? Talking about his Wuliang Dao Palace, he was actually afraid to act.
These younger generations are truly ashamed of their ancestors.”
The Grand Elder became angrier the more he thought about it.
Just then, Qin Xianer came over.
"Master, I already have a clue about the young man you asked me to find, and he and I know each other."
Hearing this, the Grand Elder smiled and asked quickly, "Where is that young man now?"
"Junior Ye Qing pays homage to the Grand Elder"
At this moment, a divine rainbow descended and appeared in front of the great elder.
He and Qin Xian'er haven't seen each other for a long time.
When we met again after separation, I was surprised by the latter's breath. How long had it been since we last saw each other
Qin Xian'er has now reached the realm of true love.
Such talent is truly astonishing.
Ye Qing’s talent is not bad either.
But he is only at the celestial immortal realm now.
So Ye Qing admired Qin Xian'er even more.
However, he did not think much about matters between men and women, because he knew Qin Xianer's identity. She was Wuliang Daogong and the true disciple of the Supreme Elder.
How could a mere casual cultivator like him rival such a high status
So Ye Qing felt that there was still a big gap between him and Qin Xianer.
However, he had already made a vow in his heart to work secretly to narrow the gap between them.
However, Qin Xian'er was unaware of this ambition.
He did have a good impression of Ye Qing, but it was not the kind of good impression between a man and a woman.
Instead, I admire Ye Qing's character, his indomitable will, and my sympathy for his suffering.
It's just this blend of emotions.
He also didn't know that Ye Qing had misunderstood.
Of course, neither side made it clear, so they were still able to meet.
If both parties make it clear, then they will probably be awkward when they meet.
"Are you the Ye Qing that Qin Xian'er mentioned?"
The Supreme Elder raised his eyebrows and immediately used his divine sense to detect the boy's cultivation and talent.
It actually has the aura of the Supreme God King.
It seems that this person is indeed the young man whose supreme bone was dug out.
It has grown so big now.
The Grand Elder witnessed with his own eyes the moment the Supreme Bone was dug out.
Su Zongze was so cruel that he suddenly had something urgent to do during the mockery, so he left.
Otherwise, Ye Qing would have been dead by now.
After digging out the Supreme Bone, can he still be allowed to survive
Back then, it was the Supreme Elder who deliberately used means to create the scene of Ye Qing's fake death, so that the headmaster and the Su family could have an explanation.
The Su family has always been ruthless and cruel in doing things, and they always wipe out the roots of the trouble.
They will never allow someone to survive after their supreme bones are dug out.
The Supreme Elder was an upright man, and what he couldn't stand the most was this kind of spicy approach.
It's totally inhumane.
Fortunately, Ye Qing was later taken in by a branch of the Ye family.
He also found a way to break the shackles that prevented him from practicing.
The Supreme Elder's divine sense was able to detect many traces when he visited Ye Qing.
Through these traces, we can determine what kind of skills he used when practicing and how he recovered after his dantian exploded and his meridians were damaged.
"I heard from Qin Xian'er that you had a drug incident. I don't know what it was."
The Grand Elder came straight to the point without any hesitation.
"Please look"
Ye Qing handed the Grand Elder a piece of precious jade.
The Grand Elder first glanced at Ye Qing, then his spiritual thoughts entered the precious jade.
A look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
"Is this evidence true or false? Where did you get it?"
The Great Elder was overjoyed.
With this evidence, it can be proved that Su Yu possesses the devil bone.
Su Yu’s identity is terrifying.
Unlike ordinary people, if in doubt, he can just open the chest to verify the Taoist bone.
Su Yu is different. No one dares to verify the bones in his body.
Moreover, everyone's bones have unique secrets, especially the descendants of some big families, who do not want others to verify them.
Many large families are people with super strong bloodlines.
The reason they can become a big family is that they have a special bloodline, which makes them very talented and allows them to continue forever.
Through these bones, we can know their talents, their defects, and the secrets of their skills.
There are many forces in this upper world that specialize in practicing the art of bone gazing.
Therefore, everyone's Taoist bones must be carefully protected, and no one else should be allowed to view them unless it is absolutely necessary.
Because Su Yu’s Taoist bone cannot be verified.
Therefore, if one wants to prove that he is a demon cultivator, he must use some other means.
For example, this evidence can prove that Su Yu is a demon cultivator.
"The top-grade detection stone will not make mistakes in the test results. This is exactly what Su Yu found when he entered a secret realm during his training in the lower realm."
Ye Qing explained.
If the trap had not been set up in advance, it would have been almost impossible to capture any trace of Su Yu's demonic nature during this test.
"Who did this? Who is so bold?"
The Grand Elder asked hurriedly.
Even if he dared to suspect that Su Yu had a demonic nature, he did not dare to investigate secretly.
I dare not even set a trap secretly.
