Chapter 147: The pioneering period

Views:

Young Master Ye Luo told him that Tongtian Pavilion was a mysterious sect founded by Lou Ban's disciples after his death, and they wanted Lou Ban to be posthumously canonized as a saint.

Young Master Ye Luo also said that Tongtian Tower has an idea, which seems to be to build a bridge to the sky, to the fairyland.

At that time, Young Master Ye Luo just said it casually, and Su Yun also just listened to it casually without taking it to heart.

Unexpectedly, the people in Tongtian Pavilion actually came to him and called him the Pavilion Master!

He just took a box from Lou Ban and helped him fulfill a last wish. What did the Pavilion Master have to say

Su Yun handed the wooden box to the dumb senior brother and said with a smile: "Lou Ban is my stall mate, it is only natural for me to help him without asking for anything in return. Since this wooden box is something that only the master of your Tongtian Pavilion can use, then I will return it to Tongtian Pavilion today, and you can choose another master."

The young man was stunned and said in a lost voice: "You don't want the key? Do you know how important this key is?"

Su Yun shook his head and said with a smile: "It was not originally mine. I only took it as a favor. Since this key is extremely important to you, you can just take it back."

The mute senior brother held the wooden box, feeling a little overwhelmed.

The young man looked at the wooden box with a gloomy expression. He wanted to take it, but he didn't dare. He laughed and said, "You don't want the key of the great saints and teachers of all ages. I..."

He stretched out his hand tremblingly, trying to grab the wooden box, but when his fingers were about to touch the box, he suddenly retracted them.

Su Yun was surprised, but he didn't take it to heart. He smiled and said, "Since the box has been returned to your Tongtian Pavilion, my responsibility has also been entrusted to you. I would also like to trouble you to send me back to Wenchang Academy, by the way."

He remembered something and said quickly, "The Shuofang Tong family has dug up some of the Jiehui monsters. These Jiehui monsters may come back at any time to rescue their God King..."

Suddenly, the young man seemed to have made up his mind. He gritted his teeth, grabbed the wooden box, stuffed it back into Su Yun's hands, and said in a deep voice: "Since Master Lou has already chosen the next Pavilion Master, then you are the Pavilion Master. Only if you are not kind enough, or die, can another Pavilion Master be chosen!"

Su Yun was stunned.

Yingying on his shoulder whispered, "Master Su, I think this key may not be a good thing. Either the key is extremely dangerous, or the position of the Master of Tongtian Pavilion is extremely dangerous."

Su Yun was alert.

The young man's eyes fell on Yingying, and he said in surprise, "It turned out to be Miss Yingying. When did Miss Yingying leave Wenyuan Pavilion and Tiandaoyuan?"

Although he said this, he whispered to the dumb senior brother: "Senior brother, she is the book monster of Tiandao Academy. The things about our Tongtian Pavilion must not be spread to others. She will be killed later."

The mute senior brother nodded quickly.

Book Monster Yingying said angrily: "Bu Qiurong, I heard everything! I will help you find books when you enter Wenyuan Pavilion!"

"Miss Yingying, I was just kidding." The young man Bu Qiurong said, then he glanced at the mute senior brother and reached out his hand to quietly wipe his neck.

Book Monster Yingying stood up from Su Yun's shoulder, clenched her fists, and said angrily: "Bu Qiurong, I saw everything!"

The young man Bu Qiurong made a gesture of invitation. Su Yun walked out of the small building. Bu Qiurong led the way in front. They saw that a passage had appeared inside the Jiehui Mountain at some point, leading to the interior of the Jiehui Mountain.

The last time there was unrest in Jiehui City, Su Yun used a wooden box to control the dusty sky and mobilized the power of the Great Holy Spirit Soldiers to cut off Jiehui Mountain and bury the Jiehui Monster God King Palace inside the mountain.

Unexpectedly, the mountain was opened up so quickly.

The young man was walking in front, clearly walking in the air, and stone steps kept flying and appearing under his feet.

Su Yun followed him and saw the stone steps flying with his footsteps. They would disappear when he moved his feet away and reappear when he stepped on them again.

Book Monster Yingying stood on Su Yun's shoulder, hugged her shoulders and sneered, "The study of architecture is nothing more than this."

Su Yun smiled, picked her up and put her in the air.

Yingying ran in the air, laughing. Small stone steps kept appearing under her feet. No matter where she ran, the stone steps would appear there, always supporting her steps so that she would not fall.

"The Pavilion Master probably doesn't know the origin of Tongtian Pavilion yet."

The young man Bu Qiurong said, "Tongtian Pavilion was built during the early days of the Yuanshuo era. Civilization had just begun to rise on the land of Yuanshuo, and city-states had emerged. It had not yet been unified, and there was not even an Emperor Yuanshuo. At that time, something happened. Pavilion Master, do you know what it was?"

Su Yun shook his head.

The young man Bu Qiurong said: "At that time, there was a piece of heaven and earth outside the sky, which fell to Yuanshuo, which is now Tianshiyuan."

Su Yun's heart skipped a beat. Is the origin of Tongtian Pavilion related to Tianshiyuan

The young man Bu Qiurong said: "This piece of outer heaven is called Tianshiyuan because it comes from the direction of Tianshiyuan star field. In addition to this reason, it is said that people at that time also saw another strange sight."

The book monster Yingying didn't know much about this either. She hurriedly stopped, flapped her paper wings and flew up, landing on Su Yun's shoulder. She took out a pen and a book from somewhere and started writing and drawing, taking careful notes.

"Those people saw that there was another world outside the sky. The fallen Tianshiyuan was a city in that world, so people called it Tianshiyuan. Tianshiyuan means the city in the sky."

The young man Bu Qiurong said: "And that world outside the sky, some people call it the fairyland. Unfortunately, the fairyland only appeared for a short time, and this world disappeared immediately after it appeared. At that time, many strong people tried to rush into the fairyland, but these people disappeared without a trace. Later, people saw the spirits of these people in the ghost market of Tianshiyuan."

Su Yun suddenly had a creepy feeling. The people who rushed to the fairyland disappeared. When he saw them again, they had become ghosts in the ghost market, which was somewhat creepy.

"The smartest spiritualists at that time established the Tongtian Pavilion and tried to explore the mysteries of the fairy world, so they called it Tongtian. Later..."

They came to the interior of Jiehui Mountain and saw Jiehui lamps hanging inside the mountain. A dozen strange men with their faces covered in robes stood in front of the wall, waiting quietly, their shadows stretched long by the lights.

The young man Bu Qiurong stepped forward and said, "Later, during the reign of Yuan Shuo, the great emperor of Yuan Shuo went on an expedition overseas. He saw that the overseas lands were barbaric and the people lived in caves and trees, so he lost interest and turned back. However, the spiritualists from Tongtian Pavilion also followed the army overseas and discovered the first Jiehui City underground."

"Is there also a Jiehui City overseas?" Su Yun was shocked.

The mute senior brother had already arrived in front of the wall, grinning and waving to Su Yun and the others.

"After Tongtian Tower discovered the Jiehui City, they tried to explore the secrets within it, but accidentally alerted the underground Jiehui monsters, which then discovered more secrets."

The young man Bu Qiurong stood in front of the dusty sky, stopped and said, "If you want to know this secret, you have to become the master of Tongtian Pavilion."

The mute senior brother looked at Su Yun expectantly, and behind Su Yun, the eyes of those strange people whose faces were covered by robes also fell on Su Yun.

Yingying stopped recording, stood up, and whispered in Su Yun's ear: "He said so much just to tempt you to agree to become the leader of Tongtian Pavilion. If there were any benefits to becoming the leader of Tongtian Pavilion, they would not have buried the key with Lou Ban, and would not have waited so many years to select the leader."

Su Yun coughed and asked tentatively, "The classmate in the building should have passed away for many years, right? Why hasn't Tongtian Pavilion chosen a leader in all these years?"

"I chose it."

The young man Bu Qiurong sighed and said, "After Master Lou passed away, we buried the key and selected the smartest young men from all over Yuanshuo and sent them to the Tianmen Ghost Market. But none of them were qualified. In the first year, we sent forty-two young men to the Ghost Market. Of these forty-two, sixteen were from Yuanshuo Tiandao Academy, and the other twenty-seven were from the public or overseas."

At this time, another voice came, saying quietly: "If you want to become a Pavilion Master, you must pass the tests of the Pavilion Masters of all generations. The Pavilion Masters of our Tongtian Pavilion are all talented and wise, and the tests of the Pavilion Masters of all generations are very strict. Therefore, it is natural that the Tiandao Academy scholars cannot be in the eyes of the Pavilion Masters of all generations."

Su Yun looked at the man and took note of his voice.

The young man Bu Qiurong continued, "When selecting the leader of Tongtian Pavilion, it is natural to prefer to have no one rather than someone who is not qualified. Ten years later, Tongtian Pavilion selected another group of young geniuses and sent them to the Ghost Market, but..."

Su Yun frowned and asked tentatively, "But no one was chosen?"

The young Bu Qiurong frowned and shook his head, saying, "No. Tongtian Pavilion has elected a new Pavilion Master. This generation of Pavilion Master is extremely talented and wise, even better than previous Pavilion Masters! However, a foreign country attacked Yuanshuo, and the young Pavilion Master participated in the battle and died in the battle..."

Outside the dusty sky, everyone in Tsutenkaku fell silent.

The young man Bu Qiurong said, "The last selection was ten years ago, and another group of geniuses were sent to the Ghost Market. But no one could be as talented as the previous Pavilion Master. Since then, Tongtian Pavilion has not selected a new Pavilion Master. Until the New Year, when we offered incense to Master Lou again, Master Lou said that he had selected a new Pavilion Master."

Book Monster Yingying leaned over to Su Yun's ear and whispered, "Did you pass that damn Pavilion Master exam?"

Su Yun shook his head and whispered, "No."

Book Monster Yingying was puzzled: "Then why did Lou Ban say that you were the new Pavilion Master he selected? What if the previous Pavilion Master refused to acknowledge you?"

"Master Lou said that you are the one that all the pavilion masters have nodded to."

Bu Qiurong looked at Su Yun and said in a deep voice: "In the Ghost Market, all the Pavilion Masters have tested you and are very satisfied with you. And Master Lou was the last one to nod."

Su Yun was shocked and thought of his fellow vendors in the Tianmen Ghost Market.

Could it be that many of the stall owners are the owners of Tongtian Pavilion

But where do their tests come from

At that time, I was just a little blind man. For six years, I kept climbing up to the ghost market along the fairy rope, setting up a stall in the ghost market, eager for the opportunity to see the light again.

Su Yun never remembered what tests he had gone through.

"I am not your leader."

Su Yun placed the wooden box in front of the dusty sky and shook his head, saying, "I just became friends with the past Pavilion Masters and set up a stall together. You should choose a better Pavilion Master. I don't think I have the qualifications or talent."

He took a few steps back, turned around and walked out.

"If you don't agree, the entire Shuofang will be reduced to ashes!" Bu Qiurong shouted behind him.
