Chapter 1: Huanglongzong
The situation was urgent, and there was not much time to consider, Yang Ming quickly made a choice and said loudly: "Brother Xiong, take me and pretend to take me to fly!"
"Okay, let's go!"
The big bear snorted, and with a wave of the bear's paw, countless treasures flew out from behind him, like fireworks, bursting into clouds of white light in the air.
knives, swords, spears, whips, axes, tripods, mirrors, pens, talismans, nets...... Yang Ming looked at these treasures that shimmered with spiritual light, his eyes narrowed into bean sprouts, his hands covered his left chest, and his mouth snorted coldly-distressed!
The big bear is not soft at all, like a child lighting a cannon fight, having a lot of fun, listening to the sound of "bangbang", the big bear let out a "quack" laugh in his mouth, shouting: "Fly!"
Brother Xiong's subordinates are merciful!
Just when Yang Ming was about to speak, the surrounding scene changed, and he only heard a "boom", and he flew out of the system space, and his consciousness returned to his physical body.
The next moment, the huge palm had been pressed to the top of the head, and the distance between heaven and earth was only three feet!
At this moment, a soft white light enveloped him and flew out at an incredible speed.
……
Three months later.
In the slanting wind and drizzle, a young man in a blue robe held an oil-paper umbrella and walked on the wet and dewy forest path, looking stunned and couldn't help but fall into memories.
Three months ago, Da Xiong landed in this world with Yang Ming, and after that, he disappeared without a trace, no matter how Yang Ming called, he did not respond.
Yang Ming can only explore by himself, fortunately, this is not the first time he has crossed, he has long been accustomed to this kind of trip, and quickly adapted to this strange world.
In the past three months, he has also inquired about some information. The environment of this world is somewhat similar to the world of "Journey to the West", which is a reckless world where demons loom. Outside the area of human habitation, there are large areas of mountains and rivers and vast jungles occupied by demons.
The country where Yang Ming is currently located is called "Yue".
The country of Vietnam is vast. With a territory of thousands of miles, 33 large cities, a population base of hundreds of millions, only tens of millions of warriors, and a strong people, the earth is like a poor country compared to here.
There are three major forces in the Yue Kingdom, the royal family, the Exorcist Guild, and the Huanglong Sect.
When Yang Ming got the news, it was immediately the day when the Huanglong Sect opened the mountain once every five years to accept disciples. He is now going to Huanglong Mountain to take the introductory test.
"Sigh Rhythm ~~~"
A carriage rushed from behind the mountain road, crossed Yang Ming, but suddenly stopped fifty paces away.
Yang Ming glanced at it lightly, and continued to move forward in line with the principle that more things are better than less.
But when he passed by the carriage, the curtain suddenly opened, and a young man who was about the same age as him leaned out and arched his hand: "Brother Tai is also going to Huanglong Mountain, God is beautiful." It's better to get in the car and go with you. ”
"Then thank you brother. ”
Yang Ming glanced at it, closed the umbrella, and stepped into the carriage. He is a man of great art and courage, and he is not afraid of danger.
The carriage drove on.
"You're welcome, brother. The gate of Huanglong Mountain will be opened tomorrow, and it is rare to meet people in the same way at this time. In Xia Qingshan, you haven't asked for advice yet?" the young man asked with a smile. His face was slightly pale, as if he was ill.
The carriage looks very plain from the outside. There is nothing out of the ordinary, but the interior of the carriage is very comfortable. There was a small stove in the compartment, on which a jug of wine was warm, and the carriage drove along the rugged mountain road, but the jug did not spill any wine.
The coachman's whole body was covered under the hat, revealing only an iron-like arm, and the palm holding the reins was as steady as Mount Tai, according to the division of martial artists in this world, this person was a peak martial saint.
This world divides the strength of martial artists into four levels from low to high: martial artists, martial artists, martial sects, and martial saints.
Above the Martial Saint is the innate true person who has condensed the true element.
"In Xia Yang Ming, I have seen Brother Qingshan. The first person doesn't have a good chance, and heavyweights often appear at the last moment?" Yang Ming glanced at Qingshan Yuan with a deep meaning and said with a smile.
"Makes sense. Aoyama Yuan also laughed.
……
The carriage was not in a hurry, and drove at a very balanced speed, and arrived at the Huanglong Valley in front of Huanglong Mountain at sunrise the next day.
At this time, tens of thousands of martial artists from Tiannan and Haibei had gathered in Huanglong Valley, and the worst of these people was also a martial artist, who had long been invasive from cold and heat, and the frost and dew had no effect on them at all.
These people are placed on the rivers and lakes, and each of them is a sect master, but at this time, they all gathered in front of Huanglong Mountain and honestly waited for the assessment.
"When ......"
Not long after Yang Ming and Qingshan Yuan arrived in the valley, a bell came down from Huanglong Mountain and echoed in the valley for a long time.
The warriors resting in the valley suddenly lifted their spirits, like a sleeping lion waking up, and their sharpness was revealed.
"The mountain gate is open, the Qingyun Road is here, and the apprentice is on the Qingyun ......" A strong male voice came from the top of the mountain, the voice was not very loud and high-pitched, but it was full of stamina, and it was clearly delivered to everyone's ears.
The next moment, the clouds and mist that lingered in front of Huanglong Mountain dispersed, and a thousand zhang high green peak appeared in front of everyone, the mountain was covered with vegetation, lush, and there was a white stone road on this side towards everyone, straight into the green clouds, and from a distance, it seemed that someone had drawn a thin line with chalk on the verdant peak.
At the moment when Qingyun Road appeared, everyone flocked up, and this situation made Yang Ming unconsciously think of the station during the Spring Festival.
"Huanglongzong is the first sect of Dayue, known as non-genius does not accept, although there are many people who have apprenticed before, but in the end they can worship the mountain gate, and there are only dozens of people in each session. These dozens of people were divided into parts, and eight or nine out of ten of them only worshiped the outer sect, and the rest could become official disciples of the Yellow Dragon Sect. Qingshan Yuan seemed to see Yang Ming's thoughts, and said with a smile.
Although Yang Ming knew that the Huanglong Sect was the first sect in the Yue Kingdom, the news he heard was only like this, and he didn't know the details of the Huanglong Sect. ”
"Qingyun Road is only open for one hour every five years, Brother Yang, let's talk as we walk. Qingshan glanced at him from a distance and said lightly.
"Good. ”
Yang Ming agreed, and then set off and embarked on Qingyun Road with Qingshan Yuan.
The moment he stepped on the stone steps, Yang Ming's face couldn't help but move.
He felt an invisible pressure on his body, although this force was very small, but for Yang Ming, who had already been in the dark, this trace of pressure could also be clearly felt.
Seeing this, Qingshan Yuan smiled and said: "Qingyun Road was cast by the predecessors of the Yellow Dragon Sect, as long as the person who sets foot on Qingyun Road will be bound by the spell, and every time he goes up, this binding force will increase by one point." Qingyun Road has a total of 3,000 steps, and those who can pass through Qingyun Road to climb the Qingyun Hall must at least have the strength of a martial sect. ”
"Is this the beginning of the apprenticeship assessment?" Yang Ming sighed.
"No, it's just a pre-assessment screening to weed out some people who are indiscriminate. The assessment really began when it arrived at the Qingyun Palace. ”
Qingshan Yuan was thin and thin, with a sickly face, as if a gust of wind could blow him down, but this person walked on the Qingyun Road with great ease, and the wind under his feet seemed to be slow and urgent.
As they spoke, the two of them had already walked more than a hundred steps.
Qingshan Yuan continued: "There are five real tests, age, cultivation, qualifications, comprehension, and bloodline physique, a total of ten points. Those who score four points can become disciples of the outer sect of the Yellow Dragon Sect, those who score six points can become official disciples, those who score seven points can directly become elite disciples of the inner sect, and those who score eight points can directly become true disciples, but those who can score eight points are very rare, and they only see each other for decades. ”
"Brother Qingshan, do you know how to score specifically?" Yang Ming didn't know what reason this person had befriended him, but he finally caught a person who knew the inside story, of course, he had to ask clearly.
"Time is the natural enemy of a warrior, and age is about a person's future achievements. For real people, time is the most important and least important thing, and in the same situation, the younger the person, the more important it is. The Huanglongzong divides the age of those who are apprentices into four stages, those under the age of 20 get two points, those between the ages of 20 and 24 get one point, those between the ages of 25 and 30 do not get points, and those over the age of 30 are directly disqualified from apprenticeship. Qingshan Yuan answered all questions without the slightest impatience.
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "If there is a person who is just thirty-one years old, but he is in the innate real realm, will the Yellow Dragon Sect not accept it?"
Qingshan Yuan said with a smile: "A thirty-one-year-old real person will become a martial saint before the age of thirty, and at least a martial artist before the age of twenty-five, he can come to apprentice before the age of twenty-five." In the more than 3,000 years of history of the Huanglong Sect, there were indeed real people who were more than 30 years old who came to apprentice, and in the end, the Huanglong Sect did not accept that person, and the answer they gave was...... Huanglongzong is not a genius, and he only becomes a real person after he is over thirty years old, and his qualifications are too poor, and he has no qualifications to apprentice. ”
Yang Ming nodded slowly, the words from the Yellow Dragon Sect sounded a bit excessive, but the answer they gave was quite reasonable—there were more unreasonable things than that.
After five hundred steps, the speed of the climbers has slowed down, and Yang Ming and Qingshan Yuan have risen from the "tail of the crane" to the penultimate group.
"Cultivation is similar, people who don't cultivate in the Martial Sect don't have the qualifications to participate in the test at all, although the Martial Sect is qualified, but it can't be scored, the Martial Saint can accumulate one point, and the real person can accumulate two. ”
"Qualifications and comprehension are divided into ordinary, outstanding, genius and anti-heaven level. Ordinary ones are not accepted, and only outstanding ones have entry qualifications, but no points are allowed, one point is awarded for the genius level, and two points are awarded for the anti-heaven level. ”
"The first four tests are routine items, and the last test is an additional item, which tests whether the apprentice has a special bloodline and a special constitution, and people with a special bloodline and constitution can get an extra one or two points depending on the bloodline and constitution. ”
Qingshan walked on the side of the road from afar, and his voice was smooth and not strenuous at all.
Yang Ming couldn't help but speak, no wonder he said twice in a row that the Yellow Dragon Sect was not a genius.
At first, I heard him talk about the age test, and I thought that the test was relatively simple and the points were easy to get, but when I heard the later situation, this idea immediately disappeared without a trace. (To be continued......)
