_Chapter 95: Choosing a Soul
It turned out that the soul-seeking trip of the four major sword sects in the first month of each year has continued for hundreds of years, and has become an extremely important event in the requiem country, and the Ascension Sendai was built for this purpose, which was specially used by a group of disciples to select sword souls. Although the citizens www.biquge.info of this requiem country are soul bodies, they are among the mundane, and they are like ordinary people, suffering from birth, old age, sickness and death. Who doesn't want to find a master of the immortal family, get out of the prison cage of this heaven and earth, and go to Bo a piece of freedom? It is an emperor's list, as soon as the first month arrives, the capital will be extremely lively and prosperous, regardless of people and beasts, but if you feel that you have some ability, you will gather here to ascend to Sendai and try your luck. Once you get the blue eyes of the immortal master, it is the carp leaping dragon gate, once you have the ambition, even if you don't have this opportunity in your fate, you can see the world, open your eyes, and after tea and dinner, it is also a point of conversation.
Seeing that the sword soul was about to be selected, all the disciples were eager to look forward to it, and Xing Chongchong followed the eunuch leader to turn a few ways and walked out of the palace gate. Then I saw that on the huge square, there were all souls, people and beasts were mixed, crowded one after another, and they stretched to several streets in the distance, and there was no edge in sight. In the midst of the raging crowds, there are dozens of rings standing in all directions, on which flags are waving, and the cold wind is cold, which is prepared for the soul body competition.
Although the crowd was dense, there were many soldiers to maintain order, and it was not very noisy. When he saw a group of immortal masters appearing on the stage, he suddenly cheered, and the sound shook the sky, and they knelt on the ground one after another, and said words of blessing and prayer, which were more pious. Seeing this scene, Tian Yan also had a little fluttering in his heart, not to mention the rest of the people.
He was intoxicated, but he heard Bo Wuxue say on the side: "Brother Tian, do you really have so much pleasure in trampling people under your feet?"
His face turned red, his heart was ashamed, and he hurriedly said: "I have grown so big, I have never seen such a formation, but I have lost my temper." ”
Bo Wangxue sighed: "I'm not mocking you, but I just feel it. When Forget Xue first came, he was not necessarily much better than Brother Tian. Saying that, he sighed again, and continued: "The bad roots of people are born with them, and if you want to make mistakes, there are many difficulties. ”
Tian Yan was speechless, looking at the dense crowd, stunned. The sound of the mountain and tsunami of prayer rumbled, and it could no longer be heard.
After such a while, it was finally calmed down a little. The disciples were instructed by Bo Wangxue to find a ring for each, and their own eunuchs waited for them to sit directly below, presented pen and ink, wrote the requirements of their selection on a big banner, summoned their natal sword weapons to hang in the ring, and waved them in the wind, which was clear at a glance.
Souls that consciously meet the requirements can step forward in order and show their performance. This is the first test, and only after the approval of the immortal master can he be qualified to go to the ring and compete again.
This time, Tian Yan was stumped, holding the pen in his hand, and he didn't leave a word for a long time. His Phaseless Phantom Sword was too strange, sharp and fast, calm and sturdy, and it didn't occupy any of it, let alone any additional spells attached to it. Although the skill of concealment and transformation is extraordinary, there are no special requirements for the selection of sword souls, and it is really necessary to write strongly, which is nothing more than a flexible mind and good at adapting to the eight words. How should such a general statement be considered? Do we have to come up with a few riddles that people can't guess?
He was thinking about it, but there were cheers coming out of the compartment, it turned out that a disciple had already written a request, and Hua Hua skillfully performed a sword method, and set the banner on the ring, causing the blood of all the souls to boil, and the sound of color shook the sky. He looked intently, and saw that the disciple's natal flying sword was as short as a dagger, and the book on the banner was proficient in the study of battle formations, and he had experience in battlefield confrontations.
This look at the effort, and bursts of sky-shattering cheers sounded in all directions, but a few more disciples completed it one after another, and the banner was displayed, and the requirements were either to value strength, or to care about dexterity, or to prefer foot strength, all of which were clear and targeted.
Looking at it all the way like this, after a while, all the disciples hung up the banner, and there were many repetitions in the requirements, thinking that if they met a good sword soul, under the heat of the eyes, there would be a scramble. In the end, there was only one person left, and he really couldn't put pen to paper, so he was lonely. Seeing this, the eunuchs around him thought that he was holding a big shelf, so he had the courage to curry favor and said: "Please also ask the immortal master to sketch it, if it is late, I am afraid that some good goods will be occupied by other rings."
Tian Yan was depressed in his heart, so he simply threw the pen on the inkstone and said, "If you don't write, this person is crowded, are you afraid that there is no good one?"
The eunuch said: "What the immortal master said is very true, even if it is so, I also ask the immortal master to sacrifice the flying sword to show a magical power, so that everyone can open their eyes." The villain serves on the side, and it is also honorable. ”
This is which pot is not opened, and the Phaseless Illusion Sword is transparent, silent, and silent, how can it be appreciated? Tian Yan's heart moved slightly, and he hastily fixed it on the ring, and sighed: "I don't know which one is born with a discerning eye, and can come and take a look." ”
The eunuch was inexplicable, seeing that this immortal master didn't do anything, just angry, he was a lame man who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, and stepped aside, too lazy to be courteous.
Bo Wangxue looked at it in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh, Shi Shiran was about to come over, holding the pen in his hand, and doing it in one go, but it was the four big words "fate to see yourself". The flag immediately floated up and hung on the ring, with a few words, a silver hook and iron painting, and suddenly there was a momentum of dust.
Tian Yan looked refreshed, and the sullenness in his heart had gone seven or eight points, and said with a smile: "This is a method, even if you don't get anything in the end, you will be a master." ”
Bo Wangxue said: "Brother Tian, your Phaseless Illusion Sword is very strange, I am afraid that this matter of selecting sword souls will not take an unusual path, everything is just as fate." ”
In this way, the first test was opened, and the souls each looked for a ring that matched their own conditions, and did their best to win the favor of the immortal master. From this point of view, it is the most lively in front of Tian Yan's door, with a surging crowd and an endless stream. The reason for this is the four big words of "fate to see yourself".
One of the reasons is that it is ethereal, but it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Since the immortal master said that he had a fate, if he didn't give it a try, how would he know if he was destined to be fate? In this way, the three sects and nine streams, birds and beasts, all came to try their luck and blocked this place. Even the elderly, weak, women and children, and the disabled are pitifully crowded forward to join in the excitement.
Tian Yan did not refuse, and the test questions were simple, so he only asked: "What did you see in the ring?"
I don't want the answer but it's unexpected and provocative. Some people are sprinkled, talking loudly, talking about their life and destiny, the past and the future, and putting gold on their faces. Some people pretend to be mysterious, bluntly saying that there is nothing to see, and all kinds of things in the world are nothing. There are even people who find their own way, and it is difficult to answer questions, so they ask Tian Yan what he sees, in order to be different. In short, there are all kinds of responses, and there are thousands of strange things, but very few people tell the truth, speak bluntly, and after deep thought, they can't help but be sad and lamentable.
After half a day, Tian Yan listened to the cocoons in his ears, and the great principles of life were loaded with a basket, but no one had a sense of the Phaseless Phantom Sword. Looking at the other rings, there are already some candidates sitting on it, and it is obvious that there is a lot of progress. Seeing that the sky is getting dark, I only heard the gongs and drums above the gatehouse, and today's selection will end here. He sighed slightly, accepted the Phaseless Illusion Sword, and returned to the palace with all the disciples.
Early in the morning of the second day, the disciples returned to their respective rings and continued the preliminary examination. Tian Yan is still crowded with people, and the threshold is broken, but he still finds nothing, and he wastes a day of hard work. When I returned in the evening, I saw that the people around me were full of spring breeze, smiling and groaning, and I had already won a lot of excellent candidates, so I felt a slight sour feeling in my heart, so I just moved forward without saying a word. When the disciples saw him behaving like this, they remembered that he had occupied the pit for the past two days, and he didn't, but they only felt that this person was acting in a profound manner, and he was so pretentious. Some vitriolic people couldn't help but ridicul around the bush, causing a burst of yin and yang weird laughter. He had no intention of dealing with it, and only ignored it, which only fueled arrogance and ridicule.
