Chapter 6: Heavenly Ghost Sect

Look at the scenery in front of you. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Among the majestic mountains, a heavenly staircase that stretches for more than ten miles appears in front of you, reaching up to the sky, and the far end disappears into the clouds and mist.

Looking at the heavenly steps in front of him, Xu Yang had mixed feelings in his heart. The immortal path will start from the feet, stride forward, climb the stairs, I don't know how long I have walked, and finally come to the end of the ladder. In front of you is a huge torii carved from white marble. The torii is supported by two huge round stone pillars on the left and right, and the stone pillars are carved with a huge dragon pattern, which is majestic.

Looking up, the crown of the archway is carved with dozens of heavenly ghosts of different sizes, dancing and hugging the plaque in the middle. The plaque is engraved with three large characters "Heavenly Ghost Sect".

Behind the archway is a layer of colorful light curtain, which cannot be penetrated by divine consciousness and sight. Xu Yang took out a round jade plate given by Tu Sanli before leaving, and according to the secret method taught by Tu Sanli, a white light shot out from the jade plaque, and disappeared into the light curtain.

The next moment, a gap opened in the light curtain after flickering. Xu Yang took back the jade plaque and walked straight into the light curtain, and the light curtain gap was automatically closed, intact as before.

Xu Yang, who entered the Heavenly Ghost Sect, looked at the scenery in front of him with a look of amazement. In the distance, there is a five-story hall built on the mountain, and the buildings around the hall are lined up one after another, connecting into a large area that cannot be seen, and its momentum is far more magnificent than the hometown county town that Xu Yang has seen.

At the foot is a huge square, the ground is paved with large bluestone bricks, and it is spotless. A number of neatly dressed disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect patrolled the square. Seeing Xu Yang coming over, one of them stepped forward and asked, "The disciple of the branch hall." ”

"Below is a new disciple named Xu Yang. As he spoke, Xu Yang took out a pitch-black token given by Tu Sanli and handed it over with both hands.

The front of the token is engraved with the word wind, and the back of the token is a black eagle. The guard took the token and looked at it, and said, "It turns out that it is a new entry disciple recommended by the Wind Ghost Hall, go to the disciple recruitment office over there to sign up." With that, he pointed to a two-story building in the distance.

According to Tu Sanli's plan, Xu Yang first had to participate in the baptism ceremony of the introductory disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect. In the past few days, the side effects of Xu Yang's cultivation of the Dark Fire Technique have begun to appear, and blood marks have begun to appear in the blood vessels of the wrist, accompanied by redness and swelling.

In the recruitment office, new disciples who have entered the door have come to sign up one after another. After Xu Yang reported his name, he was told that he would participate in the ceremony of the entrance of the new disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect five days later.

Five days later, at three o'clock, on the square of the Heavenly Ghost Palace.

There were more than 100 disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect who came to participate in the official entrance ceremony, and Xu Yang was among them. As the number one sect of the Ghost Dao on the Zhongyuan Continent, if the Heavenly Ghost Sect wants to become a disciple of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, it must be recommended by the various branches of the Heavenly Ghost Sect. Therefore, the vast majority of the disciples were cultivators who had close ties with the Heavenly Ghost Sect, and there were very few mortal disciples like Xu Yang.

The recommendation order for new beginner disciples is also extremely precious, and Tu Sanli's recommendation order is also a reward for performing the sect's mission in the Wind Ghost Hall.

In front of the Heavenly Ghost Temple.

On both sides of the square of His Highness, at intervals of two feet, there are ghosts of different shapes carved from black stone. Each of these stone carvings is more than two feet high, or squatting, or standing, or jumping, each face is hideous, adding a bit of mystery and majesty.

The Heavenly Ghost Hall is built on a platform more than two meters high, and there are railings made of white marble on both sides. Looking up, the main hall gate is more than three zhang high, and the door plaque is engraved with three golden characters "Heavenly Ghost Palace".

There is a pair of huge couplets hanging on the left and right of the gate, the golden font is engraved on two long plaques as black as ink, the left side reads: The heavenly ghost is free to swim in the cold, and the right side reads: The earth fairy is free to walk alone in the netherworld. The strange thing is that these big characters faintly flickered with a golden halo, which was soul-snatching, and people did not dare to look at it for a long time.

There are four flag stands on each side in front of the main hall door, and each flag stand is erected with a black rectangular flag embroidered with gold edges, and a ghost character is written on each flag, waving in the wind. Sixteen disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect stood neatly under the banner, neatly dressed and with solemn expressions.

As the hour approached, a group of more than 20 people came out from the moon gate on the side of the square. The old man at the head was tall, with a crown on his head, eyes like electricity under two thick eyebrows, and a wisp of black hair floating on his chest. Wearing a dark purple jacquard brocade robe, he walked in a breeze. It was Yu Cheng, the sect leader of the Heavenly Ghost Sect who presided over the ceremony.

A deacon disciple with a straight figure and a dignified appearance stepped forward and announced loudly: "Please invite the sect master Yu Cheng!" and then respectfully retreated.

Yu Cheng announced loudly: "The auspicious time has arrived, and the baptism ceremony of the disciples of the Heavenly Ghost Sect has begun. ”

"The Heavenly Ghost Sect worships the Heavenly Ghost and uses the ghost spirit power as an opportunity to break through the Immortal Dao. The fact that this sect can stand tall in the Zhongyuan Continent and prosper is only possible thanks to the blessing of the sect's ancestors and the continuous addition of new disciples. The following is the initiation ceremony of this year, please this door holy weapon. ”

As Yu Cheng's voice fell, I saw eight burly disciples walking neatly and carrying out a roofless sedan chair. In the middle of the palanquin is a one-foot-square rosewood box, and the golden runes on this wooden box are constantly flowing, emitting bursts of light. The large sedan chair was carried to the center of the platform, and the person carrying the sedan chair retreated backwards neatly.

Yu Cheng bowed respectfully to the wooden box, and then flicked his right wrist slightly, and a magic trick hit the wooden box. I saw the lid of the wooden box slowly rise and land on a tray prepared in advance. As the lid of the box opened, a white jade ruyi was revealed.

Suddenly, the aura around the platform rolled and surged with Ruyi as the center, and the wind and clouds changed.

I saw an ink-colored five-clawed dragon walking up and down in Yu Ruyi, which was particularly eye-catching and ready to come out.

"Perform the worship of the town patriarchal ritual. Yu Cheng gave an order, and everyone knelt down and saluted.

After the ceremony, Yu Cheng said to the four elders beside him, "I also ask the four Dharma Protector Elders to assist me in the opening ceremony of the Dharma weapon. ”

Yu Cheng and the four Dharma Protector Elders behind him stood separately in front of Yu Ruyi and cast spells together. Five huge and pure mana surged into Ruyi like a great river and a sea.

Under the infusion of mana, the little black dragon on the jade ruyi gradually became clear. Immediately afterwards, the little black dragon's body actually broke away from Yu Ruyi.

The mana of the five Yu Cheng people formed a multicolored halo that had been wrapping around the little dragon, and slowly fell into a huge copper basin containing clear spiritual water prepared in advance.

The originally clear spiritual water in the basin gradually turned into the color of ink, and strands of black mist overflowed. A moment later, the five cast a spell to remove the little black dragon from the water and release it back into Ruyi.

"This 'Guanghan True Dragon Ruyi' is a holy weapon left by the patriarch of the Kai School, and it is the treasure of this sect. This clear spiritual water has been washed by the Guanghan True Dragon, and it is full of netherworld energy. Each disciple below puts a little finger into the copper basin, and when the ghost aura fills the little finger, he immediately takes out the finger, and must not be greedy, in order to prevent the power of the netherworld from backing up. After the baptism of the holy weapon, you can cultivate my Heavenly Ghost Sect exercises. A deacon loudly told the introductory disciples below.

After listening to the order, many new disciples, led by the deacon elders, went up from one side of the steps, each put their little fingers into the copper basin, and then returned to the square from the other side of the platform.

Xu Yang walked to the copper basin, put the little finger of his right hand into the copper basin, and as soon as his fingers entered the basin, he felt a cold breath crawling up his little finger, and the little finger turned black in an instant. The whole little finger was slightly painful, and a trace of cool aura in the center of the little finger entered the veins in the body. When the whole little finger turned black, Xu Yang withdrew his finger and returned to the team.

After all the disciples returned to the square, the clear spiritual water in the copper basin became clear as usual.

"The initiation ceremony is over, you will officially become a disciple of the Heavenly Ghost Sect from today, you must remember the ancestral teachings, cultivate hard, and carry forward the Heavenly Ghost Sect. With Yu Cheng's clear voice, the entrance ceremony came to an end.

After the ceremony, each of the new disciples was given an identity card and an elixir called "Turning Pill". After returning to his room, Xu Yang took the Immortal Pill. With the effect of the drug, the original black little finger gradually became lighter in color.

After a night's rest, the black on Xu Yang's little finger had disappeared. Xu Yang stretched his waist, feeling as if he had grown an inch taller overnight, his muscles were much stronger, and the red marks on his arms that appeared in the cultivation of the Immortal Fire Technique were gone, and he felt that his whole person was full of strength.

Running the Hellfire Technique, the smooth speed is twice as fast as before. It seems that the power of the Netherworld is very effective in transforming the body, making it suitable for practicing ghost path exercises.

In the early morning of the next day, a group of new disciples were gathered together and led by the seniors of the sect to study in the "Teaching Hall". The hall is a place for new disciples to study, and the three days of the most basic introductory spiritual teachings are conducted.

Every morning, an elder from the sect who teaches will explain the basic cultivation knowledge for an hour. In the afternoon, the disciples practiced on their own. After three days, the disciples' spiritual veins were tested, and each disciple was assigned to different branch halls for formal practice according to the characteristics of their spiritual veins.

Xu Yang is a fire attribute spirit vein, and his qualifications are too ordinary, but his control of spiritual power is very delicate, and he was assigned to the Wood Spirit Academy, a branch of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, for cultivation.

The Wood Spirit Courtyard is a branch of the Heavenly Ghost Sect that cultivates heaven and earth spirit materials. There are countless kinds of exotic flowers and plants in the courtyard, mainly to provide alchemy and pharmaceutical materials for the alchemists in the sect.

The Wood Spirit Courtyard is located in a valley dozens of miles away from the Heavenly Ghost Sect Main Hall, and a huge wooden building complex is built against the mountain. The spiritual power of the wood attribute within a radius of ten miles is extremely strong. Walking into the Muling Courtyard, the fragrance of flowers and trees makes people feel refreshed.

On the main hall of the Wood Spirit Temple.

More than a dozen new disciples, including Xu Yang, stood respectfully under His Highness.

A plump woman in a light purple robe sat in the center of the main hall. His gaze swept down to His Royal Highness, and then said, "This Xiao Yue, as the head of the Wood Spirit Academy, on behalf of the Wood Spirit Academy and all the disciples, welcome you to join the Wood Spirit Academy for cultivation. From today onwards, you are the outer disciples of the Wood Spirit Academy, and I hope that you will work hard to cultivate in the coming days and become inner disciples as soon as possible......"

"Alright, you go down first. I'll send someone to arrange a place for you to stay. You will have a day off, and tomorrow you will be assigned specific spiritual tasks. Xiao Zhangyuan said.

After Xu Yang received the exclusive token of the Wood Spirit Academy, he was arranged to live in a wing room.

Early the next morning, Xu Yang received the task assigned by the Muling Academy to take care of the medicine garden. Since I am a newcomer, I am still in the learning stage. Xu Yang is only a simple task such as care, weeding, and insect control, and the selection, fertilization, and picking of spiritual grasses in the medicine garden are all completed by skilled old disciples.

The task of taking care of the medicine garden allowed Xu Yang to receive a small amount of corresponding spirit stones from the sect as a reward. If the task is completed well, the spirit stone reward will be slightly more.

According to the regulations of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, as an outer disciple, there is no special master. Only the best of the inner disciples will be accepted as apprentices by the elders of the sect and personally guide the cultivation. After completing the care of the medicine garden, Xu Yang spent most of the remaining time practicing the exercises recorded in the Immortal Fire Technique on his own, striving to improve his cultivation realm.
