Volume 1 Origins Chapter 5 The Selection of the Leader
After the three of them had already gone far enough and completely left the scope of the Heavenly Demon Sect, they also found that there were no people from the Heavenly Demon Sect chasing after them, and they were already relatively safe. The two brothers asked Yexing: "Why don't you go back to Taiqing Gate with them, don't go back to the Heavenly Demon Sect." Yexing said: "Forget it, I don't dare to go back, I don't have the face to see the master, and if I go back, it will make the master angry, we will separate here, you go back to Taiqingmen, and I will go back to the Heavenly Demon Sect." After the two brothers returned to Taiqingmen, the master went there for them, and they told the master all about their experiences in the past few days, and when the master learned about their experiences, he was furious, thinking that they were gambling with their lives, and if they were not careful, they would die. Then the two of them were severely punished, no longer let them go down the mountain, the master personally guided them, and urged them to cultivate every day, the two of them broke through one after another under the spur of these powers, and reached the early stage of the soul realm, the master watched the two of them break through, and smiled with satisfaction, this is the first time that the master has smiled since that happened.
Their master and those elders discussed together, among the remaining juniors, only the two of them have the deepest cultivation and the most rich training experience, whoever breaks through first in cultivation will be the next head, but it is too coincidental, these two people broke through together, and the problem came, who will succeed the head? If it is unfair in this matter, then the other party will definitely have opinions, in case it leads to any serious consequences, it will be more than worth the loss, there are countless examples of this in the cultivation world, so fairness must be guaranteed, those elders have thought of a way, it will be the trial of the hundred schools of the Immortal Sect to go to the Star Palace, but generally the people of the eight major sects are in the limelight, and the other small sects and small sects are just mixing a little cultivation resources in them, but those small sects and small sects can also pop up a dark horse from time to time, comparable to the excellent disciples of the eight major sects。
(The eight major sects are: Taiqing Gate, Human Emperor Palace, Heavenly Demon Sect, Demon Emperor Palace, Netherworld Sect, Dajue Temple, Fu Sect, and Formation Pavilion.) )
The Hall of Stars is a place where the bones of the stars are buried, and there are many rare treasures in it. It's just that this Xingchen Sanren is not a person from the Eight Great Sects, he is a casual cultivator, relying on his own talent to practice step by step, and he is also famous in the history of the cultivation world, and his cultivation is located in the late stage of the Xiaoyao Realm, at that time, none of the people of the Eight Great Sects reached such a realm, and the people of the Eight Great Sects were all pressed by the Xingchen Sanren and couldn't get up, but there was no way, the cultivation of the people was there, and they couldn't beat it, so they could only swallow their anger. Xingchen Sanren lived for a total of 8,000 years, and it took about 900 years to reach the free realm, and his cultivation at that time was relatively fast, and then because there was no opponent in the world, he began to feel a little lonely, and people at the same stage as him either had an accident and died on the road of cultivation, or there was no breakthrough in cultivation, and his age was limited, and he died naturally.
Later, he wandered in the world for a thousand years, experienced the ups and downs of the world for a thousand years, looked down on everything, and then lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and then spent thousands of years in the Stardust Palace, and finally died in the Star Palace, the Stardust Dao people also knew that those scattered cultivation difficulties were left, so they left a lot of cultivation resources, his inheritance and all the treasures were left here, among all his treasures, there is a Star Tower, this tower is used to detect combat power, can only enter one by one, can not be teamed together, the tower has a total of 100 floors, each layer is a puppet, defeat a layer of puppets even if you pass the level, you can enter the next level, there is a star list at the door, which is to show the ranking. Because Xingchen Sanren did not belong to any of the Eight Great Sects, after his death, the Eight Great Sects used the place where his bones were buried as a place of trial for these juniors.
The Hall of Stars is not accessible to everyone, and there are many prohibitions in it, and if you are a little careless, you may lose your life. Only people from the Five Visceral Realm and the Soul Realm can enter, and the age must be under thirty years old, of course, there is another possibility, that is, your cultivation is the same as that of the Xingchen Sanren, and it is also the late stage of the Freedom Realm, so you can walk sideways in it, but when you reach the late stage of the Freedom Realm, you don't care about this kind of thing at all. In the Hall of Stars, there will definitely be a fight between disciples, and if there is a fight, there will be death, no matter who lives or dies in the Hall of Stars, no matter who dies inside, they can't settle accounts after the fall, this is a rule set by all sects together.
Taiqing Dao and those elders decided to let them participate in this trial, and the results on the star list will determine who will inherit the position of the head of the sect, which is also fairer to deal with, without favoring any side. These decisions were not known to the brothers.
Soon it was the turn of the trial, and the elders took them to participate, and each sect sent very good disciples to participate in this trial, hoping to show off in this trial, so that other sects could see the outstanding disciples of their own sect.
The sects watched their excellent disciples enter the entrance of the Star Palace, but the Heavenly Demon Sect has the most disciples, which shows that the strength of the Heavenly Demon Sect is the strongest among all the sects, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect is the Night Star, and the Taiqing Sect is the least number of all the disciples. The elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect also laughed at the elder of the Taiqing Sect and said: "Yo, why is there only such a small number of people in the Taiqing Sect, you Taiqing Sect should be careful inside, in case even this person dies inside, it will be beautiful!" The elder of the Taiqing Sect retorted not to be outdone: "Our disciples are the elite of the elite, you Heavenly Demon Sect has sent so many disciples to participate in the trial, but be careful, if they are all left inside, it will not be good to go back and make a difference!" These two elders are fighting with their mouths, and neither will let anyone.
Originally, the elders on both sides of them said to the team leader that when they saw the other party's people, they tried their best to kill each other, and tried to let the other party die one more person, but the three of them turned out to be the same door, how to do it, this battle did not happen, and basically most of the people came out alive. Night Star met them in the trial, Night Star could see their realm at a glance, congratulations to them for stepping into the soul realm, they never knew the realm of Night Star, and always thought that they were the fastest cultivators of this generation, they knew that Night Star's cultivation was much higher than them, Night Star's cultivation was the highest in the trial, and Night Star was located in the late stage of the soul realm, and it was only one step away from transforming into a realm.
On the way back from the various sects, the elders on both sides were asking the team leader why he didn't start, and the elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect asked Yexing, and Yexing replied: "That pair of senior brothers have stepped into the soul realm, if it is one person, I can handle it, and if the two of them are together, they will still suppress me." The two senior brothers replied to the elder of the Taiqing Sect in this way, saying: "Tianxin has reached the late stage of the soul realm, the two of us are not her opponents, she still remembered the old feelings and did not do anything, otherwise we will definitely lose a lot." "When the elders of the Taiqing Sect saw them say this, they could only give up, after all, who would have thought that since the cultivation of the night star was higher than that of his two senior brothers, he had been hiding his cultivation in the Taiqing Sect before.
The competition between the two brothers in the Star Tower also came out, the senior brother Mandate of Heaven is even better, although the cultivation of the senior brother Mandate of Heaven and the younger brother of the Apocalypse is about the same, the actual combat ability of the Mandate of Heaven is a little stronger than that of the Apocalypse, so the Mandate of Heaven on the star list is also a little higher than the ranking of the Apocalypse, the news was transmitted back to the Taiqing Gate, and the elders and the Taiqing people of the Taiqing Gate all decided to let the senior brother succeed to the throne, and when they went back, the master talked to the two of them about this matter, and the senior brother only congratulated the senior brother, without a trace of dissatisfaction, and the senior brother joked with the senior brother, in the future, if you become the head, I will be your starter, and don't treat me badly at that timeThe senior brother smiled at the junior brother, and the master couldn't help but smile when he saw the unity of the two of them.
Since the position of the head of the family is decided, then it is necessary to choose a better day to hold the succession ceremony, and the head of the house looks at the day, and it is set two days later, but the night before this succession, the night star suddenly came, and sent a message to the senior brother Heavenly Mandate Daoist, and the Heavenly Mandate Taoist secretly saw her, after all, her identity is not suitable to appear in Taiqingmen, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. After seeing the night star, the Mandate of Heaven came back and went to see his junior brother Apocalypse, and then went to his master's residence, the master thought that he was going to take over as the head tomorrow, a little nervous, and kept asking him to relax, he was also so nervous when he took over as the head of the house, but the Mandate of Heaven took out a knife and attacked his master, the master never thought that the Mandate of Heaven would attack him, there was no defense at all, so he was hit, and the Mandate of Heaven killed the master. At that time, everyone thought that the Mandate of Heaven might have been manipulated by the Night Star, or it was going mad, and the disciples of the disciples on duty saw this scene, indicating that the Mandate of Heaven Senior Brother was very sober, and there was no sign of being manipulated and going mad at all. Many people don't understand why the Heavenly Mandate Daoist did this, and when he is about to become the head of the sect, why should he plot against his master and kill him? No one knows what happened? What is the Heavenly Mandate Daoist not satisfied with?
As soon as the head died, the Taiqing Gate was completely messed up, at this time, the Apocalypse Daoist felt that he was living in a dream, it felt like a dream, the reality told him that all this was true, the Taiqing Gate was messed up, there was always someone who wanted to come out to preside over the overall situation, the Apocalypse couldn't bear to let the Taiqing Gate run by the master be ruined, plus his cultivation was the highest among his peers, only he stood up, and only he was able to stand up, and only he was qualified to stand up, and the Apocalypse Daoist alone carried the burden of the entire sect. After the Mandate of Heaven killed his master, there was no place for him in the entire Taiqing Sect, so he escaped, and later appeared in the Heavenly Demon Sect.
"You only said part of it, it seems that there is another part that you haven't said, is it because you don't dare to admit what you have done?" said a disciple of the Taiqing Sect.
