In a compound in Kyoto City, a handsome man strokes the piano in the courtyard. Suddenly, a black shadow rolled in from outside the courtyard wall and came not far in front of the man. However, he didn't dare to interrupt the man's harp, so he could only wait quietly.

Soon the man's song ended, and the man in black stepped forward and said, "Tell the Holy Lord, news has come from Zhenzhou that the masters of the nine major factions have all returned, and they have now gone to their respective sects to preside over the affairs of demon extermination." ”

"Oh, that's interesting, Ye Qin's guy looks really old, and he actually made such a big loophole. The man smiled.

"Holy Lord, this time the people of the Nine Great Sects were able to return, thanks to a young man named Luo Tianlin, who led people to rescue the Nine Great Sects. "Humanity in black.

"Luo Tianlin?" A man in brocade clothes suddenly appeared at the door on the side, and when he heard this name, he couldn't help but exclaim, "The Luo Tianlin you are talking about is a man of the same age as me and extremely handsome?"

"Young Master, it is this person, according to the latest news, this person has established a gang called the Earth Group in Yunxuan City, Lizhou, and repelled the joint attack of the three factions of the Blood Demon Gate, the Bat Gate and the Demon Sound Gate, and is extremely popular in the Lizhou area. It is said that many common families have abandoned the worship of the Nine Great Sects and the Yunlu Immortal Residence, and have instead worshiped the Earth Group. The man in black replied immediately.

The man in brocade said: "Dad, I'll go to Lizhou, let me go and meet that Luo Tianlin!"

The handsome man shook his head and smiled: "I don't have to worry, if you want to take revenge, there is a chance, your most critical task now is to break through to the realm as soon as possible, and you don't have to worry about other things." As for this Luo Tianlin, his existence is still of some use to us, so don't touch him for the time being. Inform the Yao Sun Envoy to execute the plan immediately, this time I must succeed!"

"Yes, Lord of the Holy Lord. The man in black turned and walked away, quickly disappearing over the wall.

"Father, the sky is gone. The man in brocade also clenched his fists and left.

Looking at his distant back, a smile appeared on the handsome man's face.

For three whole days, the entire Yunxuan City was decorated with lights, one was to celebrate the defeat of the Demon Sect coalition army, and the other was naturally to hold a wedding for Duan Zhu and Su Xiaobei.

Ouyang Ling was really too idle, and she made a wedding full of wind and rain in the city, and the whole world celebrated. In the end, even Duan Zhu and Su Xiaobei were a little embarrassed. Many small forces are still secretly inquiring about where these two people are sacred in the Earth Group, and why their wedding is so special, so they rack their brains, give gifts, and toss. However, what they didn't expect was that the two of them were just ordinary members of the Earth Group, and everything was just because Ouyang Ling was too idle......

Su Xiaobei lay on the huge new bed and sighed to the man next to her: "Brother Duan, I really didn't expect that I would have such a day, not only to be able to see the light of day and be with you again, but also to have an enviable wedding, the deputy head of the door is really troubled." ”

Duan Zhu said with a smile: "Tianlin is like this, if it wasn't for my inspiration back then, I'm afraid I can only live my life on that desert island." ”

"Yes, yes, you're smart. "Su Xiaobei didn't have a good airway. Duan Zhu had already told her this story several times.

"Hehe, of course I'm smart, if I wasn't smart, how could I marry such a flowery and considerate wife. Duan Zhu said with a smile.

"You... Hmph, I won't tell you. ”

"Well, don't talk about it, the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, lady, I'm here. ”

"Hmm, you tap ......"

After a while, the house was full of spring.

"Tut, it's still Brother Duan who can coax girls, Brother Tian is like a piece of wood!" Ouyang Ling put her ear on the door frame and eavesdropped with a few little disciples.

"Ahem, aren't you all too idle to do, okay, double the training volume from tomorrow!" Luo Tianlin's voice came from the end of the corridor.

"Senior Uncle Ouyang, let's go first!" Several junior disciples immediately fled from the wind, leaving Ouyang Ling alone in the wind.

"A bunch of unrighteous boys!" Ouyang Ling muttered, turning around and preparing to leave.

"Xiao Ling'er. Luo Tianlin called her behind him.

"Hehe, Brother Tianlin, is there something wrong?"

"Aren't you very idle, go and help me run the Alchemist Guild, and ask Senior Linghu Mingqiu to come over, and say that the kind of elixir he said before has a way. Luo Tianlin said.

"Where am I idle. Ouyang Ling muttered.

"To go?" Luo Tianlin's eyes were smiling.

"Go, go, go, go right away. Ouyang Ling chuckled in her heart and quickly ran away.

Soon Linghu Mingqiu came to the headquarters of the Earth Group, and Luo Tianlin pulled him into the alchemy room. After half a day, the door of the alchemy room opened, and the faces of both of them showed happy looks. The red-grade pill Guben Pei Yuan Dan came out!

Luo Tianlin used the power of the five elements to decompose the medicinal power into five parts, each of which corresponded to a realm, which were the non-martial artist period, the first layer of the harmony qi realm, the third layer of the harmony qi realm, the first layer of the harmony body realm, and the third layer of the harmony body realm. These are the three stages of laying the foundation, and they are also the best stages to improve physical fitness and potential.

Linghu Mingqiu sighed: "I didn't expect that the elixir that I have been thinking about for so many years was actually produced in this way, which is too embarrassing." ”

"Hehe, I finally lived up to the expectations of Linghu's predecessors, and at the same time confirmed that the ideas of the predecessors were feasible. Luo Tianlin said with a smile.

"Alas, if Brother Luo had been born a few years earlier, my Alchemist Guild would definitely become the most powerful alchemy organization in the whole continent. Linghu Mingqiu sighed slightly.

Luo Tianlin didn't take it easy to accept this, so he just smiled. However, although the pill has been practiced now, it cannot be put into use on a large scale, because the cost of this pill is also frighteningly high, and the medicinal materials alone cost nearly one million silver taels, which is still because of the minimum consumption under the guarantee of Luo Tianlin's high success rate.

The ownership of this elixir is very troublesome. It is reasonable to give Zhuge Guo, but this is the first pill, and it is not clear if there are any bad side effects, and Luo Tianlin does not want Zhuge Guo to be an experiment. But if it is given to others, Luo Tianlin feels that it is a bit wasteful.

Thinking about it, he silently walked to Mo'er's room, knocked on the door gently, and Mo'er's voice sounded inside.

"Who?"

"It's me, Luo Tianlin. ”

"Come in, the door is unlocked. ”

Luo Tianlin pushed the door in, and Mo'er also got up from a meditative state.

"What, seeing that you are embarrassed, have you encountered anything embarrassing?" Mo'er walked behind Luo Tianlin and pressed his shoulder for him.

Luo Tianlin told her about Guben Pei Yuandan.

Mo'er smiled: "What's so embarrassing about this, you just tell Xiaotian about this matter and ask his opinion." ”

"Alas, it's not that you don't know Xiaotian's child's temper, if you say you want to do an experiment, you will definitely agree. Luo Tianlin shook his head and said.

Mo'er thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, then let's just study the Nine Heavens Contest and make a contest to win the pill, firstly, we can promote our Earth Group, and secondly, we can also use the pill to see the actual effect." ”

Luo Tianlin's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea, but there is a problem, in this way, Zhuge Guo will not be able to obtain this elixir, at her young age, it is impossible to win against those older children." ”

Mo'er smiled: "What are you anxious about, anyway, Xiaoguoguo is still so small, it is impossible to cultivate for the time being, if there is no problem with the pill, why don't you refine another one for her at that time." ”

Luo Tianlin suddenly realized: "You are right, this time we will simply take this opportunity to beat the reputation of our Earth Group." As for Zhuge Guo, I will also give her a chance. ”

Seven days later, a piece of news spread throughout Yunxuan City and the surrounding cities, the Earth Group had successfully developed a red-level elixir, which could improve the physique of cultivators before cultivating martial arts, until the breakthrough and the physical realm, it was not an exaggeration to describe it as a divine pill.

What made them excited was not the appearance of the Divine Pill, but the fact that the Earth Group actually released a word that the Earth Contest would be held in half a month, and the winner could not only directly become the inner disciple of the Earth Group, but also obtain the right to use the Divine Pill.

The participants in the competition were infants and children under the age of five who had not cultivated, regardless of gender, the poor and the poor. The method of the competition was not announced.

How do five-year-olds compete? And many ordinary families are extremely boiling when they hear the news. If you are lucky and win the championship, then this is a good opportunity for your child to soar.

As soon as the news spread, the number of people who signed up on the first day exceeded 100, and almost most of the school-age people in Yunxuan City signed up. Some of these people's parents were even from the Alchemist's Guild or the City Lord's Mansion.

The Earth Group doesn't care about this, doesn't care about the other party's origins, and lets them sign up.

Green Snake Ji also talked to Luo Tianlin about this matter, what if this is a spy sent by the other party?

Luo Tianlin smiled and said, "A child under the age of five, how much can he remember even if he is told by his parents? As long as he lives in the Earth Group for a few years, isn't it enough time to brainwash?"

The green snake Ji was stunned for a moment, and then there were no more doubts. It's just that Luo Tianlin's approach made her feel slightly dissatisfied in her heart, and she used methods against a child, which was also too disgraceful.

Luo Tianlin knew her thoughts, and only explained: "Don't worry, the so-called brainwashing is just to make him feel the atmosphere of our Earth Group, not to instill in him any incorrect concepts." I can't do the slave thing of a child. ”

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood. Only then did the green snake fully understand the other party's thoughts.

Luo Tianlin smiled slightly: "There is no need to apologize, you are also for the good of the Earth Group." Before, you always thought that I could break through to the Heaven Level, so I joined the Earth Group. But now I don't think you're going to leave even if I'm not here, right?"

Green Snake Ji's heart was shocked, the other party said well, in the year he was away, in fact, he had slowly integrated into this big family, and there was no rejection of his responsibilities at all, all of this was no longer a factor of Luo Tianlin alone. She finally understood what Luo Tianlin meant, even she would be assimilated by the atmosphere of the Earth Group, not to mention such a young child, her worries were really superfluous.

As time passed, more and more people signed up, not only from Yunxuan City, but also children from nearby towns. By the deadline for registration, a total of 365 people had signed up, and Yunxuan City had begun to become lively.

Although there were only a few hundred contestants, there were already more than two thousand escorts who came with them, plus some onlookers watching the excitement and other gang members who were trying to spy on intelligence, the flow of people in Yunxuan City suddenly increased. Luo Tianlin had already prepared for this, and many houses in the empty space were used as temporary inns, of course, this part of the income naturally belonged to those ordinary people, but it was just the unified management of the Earth Group. These ordinary people also trust the Earth Group a lot, and they have money to make, so they did not hesitate to respond to Luo Tianlin's call.

At the same time, Yunxuan City's pill sales, taverns, snacks and other industries began to become extremely hot, which made these people's favorability towards the Earth Group rise significantly.

In the backyard of the Earth Group, Zhuge Tian walked anxiously around the room. Yu Xueqing looked at him and sighed slightly in her heart. Even if he is his husband, the most important person in his heart is still Luo Tianlin.

"Ah Tian. Yu Xueqing thought for a while and said, "Do you think Brother Tianlin is good to us?"

"The hosts treated us like family, how could it be bad. ”

"In this case, the reason why Tianlin did not directly give the pill to Guoguo is obvious, this pill is obviously still in the research stage, he is not sure whether this pill has any effect, so he doesn't want Guoguo to do experiments. Yu Xueqing analyzed.

If this is the case, then Guoguo should participate even more, and if he does not participate, it will make outsiders suspicious. Since there is such a good elixir, how can it be used by his own people first, right?" Zhuge Tian is not stupid, he can also think of things that Yu Xueqing can think of, and there is more.

"Well, if you have to sign up for Guoguo, I'm fine. But there is one thing, you can't use your power to quietly let Guoguo win. Yu Xueqing warned. She didn't think that a one-year-old Guoguo could defeat a four- or five-year-old child.

"Thank you, Xue Qing. Zhuge Tian kissed her lightly on the lips and left the room.

Xue Qing glanced at the sleeping Zhuge Guo beside her and sighed slightly.

Three days later, the headquarters of the Earth Group. This time, the competition was not held outside, but in a two-story building. The building, which was overseen by Celestial herself, was originally planned to be nine storeys and has not yet been completed. This is a replica of the Falling Spirit Island Trial Tower.

The vast crowd of people crowded into the compound of the Earth Group headquarters, although the headquarters compound was very large, but it was still quite crowded with thousands of people, and Mo Ji had to arrange more people to be on guard.

However, in the end, only one guardian is allowed for each player to follow into the trial tower. Therefore, in the end, the people who entered the trial tower included the insiders of the Earth Group, a total of more than 400 people, and the others could only wait for the results outside.

It was not Luo Tianlin himself who presided over the competition, not Mo'er, the orthodox sect master, but Bing Xuechen, the director of the disciple management center. Since Zhuge Tian became the commander of the three armies of Yunxuan City, the original disciple management was handed over to Bing Xue Chen.

"Friends of Yunxuan City and friends from afar, thank you for trusting us Earth Group to participate in this competition of Guben Pei Yuan Dan. Before I begin, I have a few words that I want to make clear in advance. First, this competition is absolutely fair and just, every child who participates in the competition has a chance;Second, the child who wins the victory must join the Earth Group, and enjoy the treatment of the inner door address, if you can't accept this condition, please quit by yourself, if you don't return now, then it will be deemed to recognize this condition;Third, although there will only be one champion this time, but my Earth Group also recruits potential disciples, if you are interested in the friends can participate in the selection held by the sect after the competition, of course, this can only start from the lowest level of outer disciples, this is the rule of our sect。 Okay, without further ado, the competition will start right away. Bing Xuechen opened the door behind him.

The points she said had already been prompted in the registration instructions, and at this time, everyone naturally withdrew, letting their children enter the gate behind Bing Xuechen.

Yu Xueqing personally brought Zhuge Guo to the door and motioned for her to climb in by herself. Zhuge Guo actually walked forward by himself, and it seemed that there was something in it that attracted him.

However, although there are two or three-year-old children among the contestants, there is only one child like Guoguo who can't even walk.

Bing Xue Chen smiled at Yu Xueqing and signaled that she didn't have to worry.

The children enter a room filled with green mist, and this room is full of life, and this life is not created out of thin air, but comes from some strange stones placed here and there, but in addition to these stones, there are all kinds of things in the room, such as wooden swords, food, toys, etc.

Suddenly, a voice came from overhead: "Please take one item from the room, please note that you can only take one." ”

The children looked left and right, some of them were even a little overwhelmed, while most of them chose things like wooden swords or toys, while others chose the strange stones.

Soon, several disciples of the Earth Group appeared, taking the children who had chosen the non-stone out of the room and back into the hall.

Bing Xuechen said: "I'm sorry, these children have been eliminated, please take care of your children, if you are willing to continue the selection, please don't leave, we will conduct an open and unified selection later." ”

Yu Xueqing's eyes froze, there was no Zhuge Guo among the eliminated children this time, could it be that Brother Tianlin really released the water?

At this time, Zhuge Guo was holding a strange stone, as if he was enjoying it.

Shi Lifei, who was watching in the dark, was surprised: "I didn't expect Guoguo to have such an affinity for the wood element, could it be the legendary elemental affinity?"

"What is an elemental affinity?" Luo Tianlin asked.

"According to the predecessors of the Trial Tower, in this world, there is a special physique, and they have a strong affinity for a certain element, and such a physique is called an elemental affinity, and if it is like this, it is called a wood elemental affinity. There are also those children, who should all have an elemental affinity physique. Shi Lifei replied.

"This is a lot of people, according to what you said, the wood elemental affinity body should have an extremely strong talent for cultivating wood-based spells, why is it rare to see such a person on the Lingxiao Continent?" Luo Tianlin glanced at those children who had a sense of the wood-based formation stone.

Shi Li Fei sighed: "There is no way to cultivate a simple elemental affinity physique on the Lingxiao Continent, because there is no secret book for elemental cultivation on the continent. The elemental affinity physique will crowd out other elements, so it cannot absorb spiritual energy and turn it into spiritual power. ”

Luo Tianlin suddenly realized that this was not a human problem, but a problem of cultivating exercises. Then this time the Earth Group has picked up a big treasure! These children with a wood-based elemental affinity physique are cultivating top-notch elemental spiritual cultivators!

After the first round of screening, there are about thirty remaining children, although some of them are not elemental affinities, but they can also feel the life force emanating from the strange stones, indicating that their talents are good, so they also have a chance to enter the next round.

Entering the second room, the room was divided into three areas, one with a faint smell of heat, one with a cold smell, and only the third smallest area had nothing in it.

"Please choose an area by yourself and do not move after you have chosen. Shi Lifei's voice rang out.

Soon the thirty children were divided into three waves, three of whom chose the scorching area, ten chose the cold area, and the other sixteen chose the normal area. A few others ran over and over and seemed to have a hard time choosing.

What Luo Tianlin didn't expect was that Zhuge Guo was actually lying on the junction line between the cold breath and the scorching breath, half of his body was in the cold, and half of his body was in the scorching heat.

"Water, wood, and fire three-system elemental affinity!" Shi Lifei's mouth could no longer be closed.

Shuxiang's voice suddenly sounded in Luo Tianlin's mind: "Tianlin, let that child quit, I suspect that she is a full system of elemental affinity, if you cultivate the Nine Lines Divine Technique, it is not impossible to cultivate to the Heavenly Realm, this kind of divine skill physique, you don't need your solid foundation Pei Yuan Dan at all." ”

Luo Tianlin nodded, what is the concept of the nine-system elemental affinity, to put it simply, if there is a special nine-series element cheat, Zhuge Guo's cultivation will be extremely fast, and he will soon be able to master the whole system.

"Take Zhuge Guo and those children in the ordinary area out. Luo Tianlin commanded his subordinates.

Yu Xueqing, who was at the door, saw Zhuge Guo in her disciple's arms and quickly took it. Although she was quite happy about Zhuge Guo's elimination, she inevitably had some loss in her heart, which parent didn't want her child to be talented.

After two rounds of selection, the final champion was actually Tong Yunqing, the daughter of Yun Minghao, the daughter of the city lord's mansion, Yun Yiqing, her husband's family is the son of the city lord of Lizhou Maple Leaf City, Maple Leaf City is a small city in the east of Lizhou, and she was not invited. It's just that he just took Tong Yunqing to Yunxuan City to visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Yun Minghao suggested that his grandson try it, in his opinion, the Earth Group must be able to approach the existence of the Nine Great Sects or even surpass it in the future, of course such an opportunity cannot be missed, if his nephew can become a generation of powerhouses, he can also get some light as a grandfather.
