5. Ascend the ladder
Three days later, tens of thousands of people gathered at the foot of the mountain of the Haoyang Sect, all of whom came to participate in the assessment, although their identities were different, but they all wanted to be admitted to the Immortal Cultivation Sect and become an immortal cultivator. However, so many people may not be able to enter the Haoyang faction in the end, but only a hundred. Among them, those who can enter the inner door may be counted with one hand, and those who can become registered disciples can have one.
Lin Xi didn't expect that if he wanted to return to the sect, he would have to take the test again.
There are a few people who have not yet stepped on the road of cultivating immortals and want to flirt with women from good families, Cang Ao has been yearning for justice since he was a child, and he is going to do this kind of unfair thing, he first showed his identity, the second prince of Beiyan Kingdom, but the identity of the other party is not low, he is the son of Gongqiang Kingdom, and his identity is comparable, so he naturally wants to try his skills.
One is the fifth order of Qi training, and the other is the fourth order of Qi training, and there is nothing to look at when they fight, but because both of them are rich people, they have a lot of magic weapons to take out, which soon attracted a group of onlookers, and some people even showed greed, Lin Xi glanced at the few people who coveted the magic weapon of Cangao, Cangao was targeted, and I don't know how many treasures this little guy still has, and he can't show his wealth. It is not a good thing to have too many magic weapons before you have absolute strength, and while ensuring safety, it also brings danger.
Lin Xi manipulated Wuji to separate the two.
"Who is it? β
Wu Tian, the prince of the Gongqiang Kingdom, was interrupted by the flying sword and fell to the ground in embarrassment, while on the other side, Cang Ao was supported by Lin Xi, standing steadily, raising his head proudly, and showing mockery to Wu Tian in his eyes. Several of Wu Tian's followers immediately helped Wu Tian up.
"Daring, do you know who this is? Dare to beat our son, you don't want to die. Wu Tian's little follower Xu was used to following Wu Tianyao's martial arts, and he made a lot of nonsense in front of the Immortal Cultivation Gate Sect, pointing at Lin Xi and Cang Ao.
Lin Xi put away his sword: "Everyone, today is the entrance assessment of the Haoyang faction, so let's leave some strength in the assessment." β
"Hmph, it's a matter of minutes for this son to enter Haoyang, I advise you to kneel down and lick your shoes for this son. β
is also a nobleman, this Wu Tian is obviously not at the same level as arrogance, and it is really rampant to speak for others. There was a chuckle from the crowd, with a slight mockery, Wu Tian thought it was Lin Xi's ridicule, but it wasn't, he looked around to see who dared to laugh at him, and finally found out that the source of the sound came from the top of his head.
He looked up and saw two men in Haoyang's uniform standing on top of the flying sword.
"At such a young age, I have such a tone, and I don't know how to cultivate. The man with a tear mole in the corner of his left eye asked contemptuously.
"I see that you are fifteen, but your cultivation is not as tall as this boy younger than you. "In the world of cultivating immortals, no matter what family background you have in the earthly world, only strength is the last word.
Wu Tian was so humiliated by these words that he hated and annoyed, but he couldn't say anything to refute it. After all, no matter how stupid he is, he knows that whether he can take the exam or not is all in the hands of these two people, and he dares to provoke the people who participate in the assessment at will, but he doesn't dare at all these people, so he can only swallow his anger, but even if he lowers his head, his eyes are still very fierce.
Qing Su and Wang Rui are the guides of this assessment, although the two are outer disciples, they are also the top existence among the outer disciples, it is Qing Su who just opened his mouth to scold Wu Tian, he is the three spirit roots, and now he has built the late stage of the foundation, and he is about to get married. And Wangrui also stepped into the late stage of foundation building two months ago.
The two stared at the dense crowd of participants in the assessment, and finally their eyes fell on Lin Xi and Cang Ao, as well as the eighteen-year-old child and the girl in blue. This year's examiners are really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, it seems to be wonderful.
"In Xia Haoyang, the outer disciple Qing Su. β
"In Xia Haoyang, the outer disciple of the sect Wangrui. β
He is the guide and supervisor of this assessment. β
"The two of us will lead the assessors to participate in the assessment. β
"And supervise everyone, you can ask me any questions about the assessment. β
"The Luoyang faction selects disciples strictly, prohibits cheating and other behaviors in the exam, and those who find it will be expelled from the assessment. β
"What if you cheat and don't get caught!"
When Qingsu and Wangrui were taking turns talking about the assessment rules, the girl in blue who had just been noticed by the two suddenly raised her hand and asked excitedly.
Qing Su chuckled: "Since you can not be discovered by us, this is also a kind of strength." "Compared with Wangrui, who is seriously introduced, Qingsu's personality is much more jumpy.
Of course, Qingsu's words won Wangrui's nod of approval. The strength of the immortal cultivation world is supreme, and there is nothing more important than strength.
"That's right. The blue-clothed girl's fingers brushed the corners of her mouth, revealing an inexplicable smile.
"Okay, do you have any questions?" asked Wangrui.
Nowadays, everyone just wants to take the exam quickly, so naturally there is no problem.
"Then let's just come with me. β
Qingsu and Wangrui Edgeworth took a step towards the top of the mountain. Everyone looked at each other, and then no one wanted to fall behind, so they desperately chased after them as fast as possible, and some people even concentrated their spiritual power on their feet and stepped on this ladder to catch up with the two as soon as possible. Seeing this, Cang Ao also wanted to follow suit, but was stopped by Lin Xi.
"Don't waste your spiritual power, go up step by step. β
Lin Xi participated in this assessment four years ago, and naturally knew the power of this immortal ladder, this immortal ladder has a total of 9,999 steps, if ordinary people are afraid that they will run out of strength if they step on a few steps, and it is the same for immortal cultivators, the lower the cultivation, the more difficult it is to climb, and it is simply stupid to waste spiritual power to climb the mountain in the early stage.
Cang Ao naturally listened to the words of his fairy sister, and obediently climbed up like an ordinary mountain, and sure enough, after walking more than a hundred steps, he saw many people lying on the steps, unable to take a step again, and those who used spiritual power just now had already exhausted their spiritual power, and climbed up with their physical strength, but without spiritual power, they only climbed a few more steps.
The speed of people climbing in the early stage was not obvious, when they climbed hundreds of steps, the gap was already visible, and when Cang Ao looked back, most of them had fallen halfway through, and there were very few people who continued to walk in front of them.
"Take a break. Lin Xi stepped aside and waved to Cang Ao.
This ladder is in a hurry, Lin Xi, who has climbed once, is naturally familiar with it, although four years ago, because she was weak, she was also halfway up and could no longer move forward, and now Lin Xi has long been able to fly with a sword, but the plot is written, in order to get rid of the unwillingness four years ago, she still has to go through this road.
Lin Xi took out the water bag and asked Cang Ao to drink first, and then took out the dry food, according to the normal speed, it is estimated that he will have to climb for two or three hours, and only when he is full can he have the strength to go down. Cang Aohan smiled and took the dry food in Lin Xi's hand.
"Sister Fairy is just thoughtful. Cang Ao once again seized the opportunity to praise Lin Xi.
Although he was disgusted when he saw the coarse grain in his hand, because it was given by the fairy sister, he wanted to eat it all.
"Alas~It's quite well prepared~"
The girl in blue appeared beside Lin Xi and them at some point, her hands behind her back and laughing.
"Would you like some?" Lin Xi handed her the dry food.
This little girl is not simple, she looks about the same age as Arrogant, she is already in the foundation period, she can fly up directly, but she walks up on the same feet as them. The girl in blue was also wearing a gorgeous dress, but she didn't care about coarse grains, so she took it and ate it.
"Thank you, sister, you're so nice. She thanked her sweetly.
But Lin Xi felt that the girl was smiling and not smiling, but Lin Xi didn't feel malice from her, it should just be a child's curiosity, after all, Lin Xi was the second foundation building stage strength among everyone except her, and in order to understand the opponent, she deliberately approached. The girl in blue broke off a small piece of dry food with her fingertips.
"It's time to eat, Xiaoqing. β
With the girl's words, a small turquoise snake came out of the girl's sleeve, the little snake was only two fingers thick, and although the mung bean-like eyes looked nothing, if you looked closely, you could feel a little chill from it. However, such a little snake is very well-behaved in the hands of the girl. This kind of reptilian creature, even Cang Ao showed a little fear, but the girl was not afraid at all, as if what she had in her hand was not a poisonous snake, but a cat and a puppy.
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, this is my name Bing Qili, and this is my friend Xiaoqing. After feeding the snake girl, she introduced herself, and asked Xiaoqing to greet the two, Xiaoqing called the bright red snake hyacinth, and the sound of "ε²ε" came into the eardrums, but there was no greeting for half a minute, but it was more like a threat, Bing Qili also said that Xiaoqing liked them very much.
It won't be the kind of food I like. Lin Xi thought lightly, when it came to food, the gluttony saw that the little snake was still a spirit pet little snake, so he also came up, Bing Qili was confused by the appearance of the gluttony, just as it was to greet Xiaoqing, he stretched out his hand and asked Xiaoqing to get closer.
"You two have a conversation. β
The two beasts were observing each other, due to the gluttonous aura, Xiaoqing only thought that the other party was an ordinary spirit beast with no combat effectiveness, and the gluttonous brain was full of snake meat, delicious!
He opened his mouth!
Gluttony bleated aggrievedly, isn't this snake meat just for eating! Lin Xi retracted his foot, fortunately he kicked it in time, otherwise it would be a performance sheep swallowing a live snake.
Bear with me, I'll make you something to eat at night. You go to play by yourself first, as long as you don't eat people, don't hunt near this Haoyang faction, whatever you want.
Lin Xi spread the word to the gluttony through the contract, if he didn't do this, the gluttony would lose his temper, and the plot would be ruined by him. This Bing Qili is not a small person at first glance, can her snake eat it casually?
"There's enough time to rest, let's go. The matter of Lin Xi kicking the spirit pet quickly passed as she changed the topic.
This time it's not just the two of them, this Bing Qili is also by their side, this Bing Qili seems to be very interested in the two of them, often asking some things that they don't have, if they talk to the two of them, they seem to be naΓ―ve, but they grew up in the palace, and they are still very human, and Lin Xi's character is originally upright and kind, and while answering Bing Qili's questions, he also asked her rhetorically, although Bing Qili lied a lot, he didn't get much information from Lin Xi.
A few people chatted while walking, and when they were tired of walking, they didn't look like they were here to participate in the assessment, but like they came for an outing, but now except for a few people who are still climbing the mountain with cultivation above the fifth or sixth level, the rest of them have long been eliminated. At the front of the line was the eight-year-old boy, huddled with the others, and there was no one around him. Although he is a loner, his pace of progress has not slowed down in the slightest.
At the age of eight, he practiced qi perfectly, and sure enough, there are really many talents among the examiners.
