The situation inside the Tianchi gradually became calmer, the churning fog gradually thinned out, and the vision slowly became clearer.

The three cultivators stood up and began to watch the state of the people in the Tianchi, selecting young people with good qualifications, and every time they saw that a person had a strong light and a strong brightness, they recorded it, and when they saw that a person's light was pitiful and the brightness was minimal, they shook their heads, and only two of these thousands of people had good qualifications along the way.

At this moment, when a Taoist saw Lu Shen, there was no trace of light on his body, thinking that he was dazzled and wrong, and carefully checked it several times, but still did not find a trace of light, he had never seen this situation in more than ten years of practice, and he had not even heard of it.

Hurriedly shouted to the other two cultivators: "Second, have you ever heard that when you enter the Heavenly Pond to baptize, your whole body has no reaction?" ”

When the Dharma Daoist heard this, he already understood that Lu Shen had not succeeded this time, and sighed helplessly: "Hey, you will know later, continue to check the next one."

Lu Blind was also paying attention to everything in Tianchi Lake, looking at Lu Shen's state at this time, he put away the guqin and smiled slightly, now I am afraid that he is the only one on the field who knows how perverted Lu Shen's cultivation talent is.

Inside the Tianchi Lake, everything around them had returned to calm, as if nothing had happened, and the three cultivators hurriedly opened the barrier of the Tianchi Lake and lured everyone out.

After everyone stood up, the Dharma Daoist stood up and said to everyone: "The baptism of Tianchi is just to help you open the Tianchi, if you really want to practice, you have to pass the breath test, use the Tianluo in my hand to introduce the heaven and earth aura into the body, and store it in the Tianchi after traveling for a week." ”

All you have to do is put your hands on the compass and visualize with your heart what it would be like when you were baptized. The speed at which the compass lights up is the speed at which you are affinity with the aura of heaven and earth, and this is also the speed at which you will draw qi into your body in the future. ”

"No matter what method you use, as long as it is successfully lit, a standard Tianluo will be generated from it, even if you step into the first layer of the Drinking Qi Realm. After speaking, the three Taoists nodded and signaled to begin.

The three of them teamed up to release a huge compass two feet high, and the huge compass projected small compasses one after another, appearing in front of everyone and letting everyone touch.

Ten minutes later, there were four people who successfully obtained the compass and reached the drinking breath realm.

Those who can pass the test in ten minutes are basically the children of the family, with excellent cultivation resources and equipment, plus they have been trained to learn how to practice since childhood, and it is easy to pass the test.

Two hours passed, and a large part of it slowly took to get Tianluo and reach the Qi Drinking Realm, and it was only barely enough to reach the Qi Drinking Realm.

Four hours have passed, and a large number of people have obtained Tianluo, and the vast majority of them have obtained Tianluo by luck, and there is even a trace of heaven and earth aura in their bodies, but getting Tianluo means that they can indeed practice.

Eight hours passed, and the people who participated in the test ended the test except for Lu Shen, and at this time the crowd was obviously divided into several piles, with ordinary talents surrounding the talents in the middle, and almost no talents in the outermost areas.

The people on the periphery bowed their heads and bent over, extremely flattering, and then looked at Lu Shen's side, everyone wanted to look at the plague god, hiding far away.

Slowly, the crowd began to chatter, "Is it okay or not, it's been so long, even a pig has succeeded." ”

"You don't know yet, this person's name is Lu Shen, he hasn't succeeded for ten years, and he may really be a pig. ”

"Don't talk about pigs, pigs are smarter than him, he's just a piece of rubbish, garbage. ”

"Waste, garbage......" The crowd began to make a commotion, pointing at the landing sink.

Listening to everyone's discussions, that Daoist understood what the sigh of the Dharma Daoist just now meant.

Although Lu Shen didn't have much idea about everyone's discussions, ten years had made him look at these things very lightly, and his hand was still pressed on the compass, hoping that there would be a glimmer of hope, after all, this was really the last time.

Another two hours passed, Lu Shen had reached the limit, his eyes dimmed, he couldn't figure out why he was the only one who couldn't succeed, even if there was a Tianluo, he could be regarded as able to practice.

At this moment, Lu Shen felt dizzy, and fainted due to lack of physical strength.

When he woke up the next day, Lu Shen found himself lying on the bed, he turned over and walked to the big tung tree outside the village, where the blind man was playing the piano.

Lu Blind noticed that Lu Shen woke up and began to play a song like ups and downs, the sound rose and fell like a person wearing white clothes, facing thousands of enemies fighting on the battlefield, being cut down once, standing up once, being cut down and standing up again, and so on, and finally only one person was left to face the sea of corpses and blood.

After the song is played, the hero also stepped on the sea of corpses and blood, raising his sword to win the world.

At this time, the blind man pointed to the ant's nest under the big tung tree and said, "Do you know what cultivation is for? Do you know why heaven and earth are called heaven and earth?"

Lu Shen looked at the ant nest, they climbed up and fell down like they did four years ago, and continued to climb up. He has been answering this question for ten years, why is his grandfather asking again?

At this moment, Lu Shen remembered all the things he had experienced in the past ten years, and he felt that a divine light appeared as if everything was in front of him, but it was too late, and it was useless to know the answer now.

Lu Shen was about to say that he had given up, when suddenly it rained heavily, and the rain washed away the ant nest, but more ants moved clods of soil and built a mound of soil to resist, Lu Shen slowly squatted down and looked in.

The blind man appeared behind Lu Shen and said: "It seems that you have found the answer you think, do you remember the last time I asked you what cultivation is, and you told me that you want ants to climb up, and you are really competing with heaven and earth, and you also have to compete with heaven and earth." ”

"You only see the ants climbing up, but you don't see the weather getting cloudy, you see the ants climbing up, but you don't see the ants bringing clods of soil, finding food, and building mounds of earth outside the nest step by step to prevent rain. You think that they are actually competing with heaven and earth in their cultivation, but you have thought that without them is just to live, they are just for a goal, whether they have paid attention to your vision when they are practicing. ”

When Lu Shen heard Lu Blind's words, he muttered to himself: "Other people's eyes, the purpose of cultivation." The eyes of others, the purpose of practice. ”

The blind man looked at Lu Shen's enlightened appearance, knew that Lu Shen had succeeded, and said to him: "You don't have to use Tianluo to practice, there are thousands of people practicing when there is no Tianluo. If you feel that you understand the purpose of your practice, I will take you to a place for you to practice. ”

Lu Shen understood that this place that Blind Lu said would turn his life upside down, and Blind Lu was asking him: Do you have the courage to touch this place?

Lu Shen immediately said: "Grandpa, please take me there, I am willing to continue to explore what cultivation is in my practice, I must become a cultivator, I want to know what I will practice for." ”

At this moment, the weather cleared, Lu Shen's eyes shone brightly, and the Pisces plate on his chest also flashed, as if he agreed with his statement.

Lu Blind asked Lu Shen to stand up, and Lu Shen said suspiciously: "Grandpa, what are we going to do?"

Lu Blind didn't pay attention to Lu Shen, but said to himself: "Qingfang Village was not called this name before, in the genesis era, there was a Heavenly Emperor who walked out of here, this Heavenly Emperor was respected as the "Green Emperor", and later in order to commemorate this Heavenly Emperor, the name of the village was changed to Qingfang Village, which has been used until now, and this ancient paulownia tree was planted by the Heavenly Emperor. ”

"There is a story in the village that when the descendants of Qingfang Village want to practice and have this qualification, they can go in from this place to find opportunities. ”

Saying that, Lu Blind opened a dark grid from under the strings of the guqin, and took out a round sign from it, from which a city was depicted, but half of the city collapsed and was filled with fire, but the other half of the city was full of vitality, and a towering giant tree appeared, which was the same as the ancient paulownia tree in front of him.

It was supposed to be a scene of conflict, but it was particularly harmonious because of a back figure at the junction, this man looked at the city, holding a broken military flag with a blue character written on it.

Lu Shen suddenly felt a sense of desolation when he saw this scene, and felt that this scene was familiar, as if this was his past memory.

Lu Blind looked at Lu Shen and explained: "This is the brand that has been passed down from generation to generation in Qingshanfang, and he has only one function, which is to open the portal of this ancient paulownia tree." But for thousands of years, no one has ever entered, so no one knows what it means behind the door. If you really want to practice, you can go in and try it, but you only have one chance, and if you fail, you can't go in again. ”

After speaking, Lu Blind pressed the sign on the tree, and the sign melted into it instantly, and slowly a black void portal appeared on the trunk of the tree.

Lu Blind turned his head to Lu Shen and said, "There is only one chance, you have to work hard." ”

"This time I will succeed grandpa, when I come out, I will definitely succeed" said Lu Shen and prepared to go in.

"Wait" Lu Blind suddenly turned around and called Lu Shen, neatly packed up Lu Shen's clothes, straightened the Pisces card again, touched Lu Shen's head again and said, "Go, since you want to practice so much, it's always a way to go over and see." ”

This was the first time Lu Shen saw Lu Shen helping him sort out his clothes after he became conscious. Lu Shen looked up at Lu Blind, and a bad premonition was born in his heart.

"Go ahead, or the portal will disappear in a moment. As he spoke, he began to urge Lu Shen to go in.

When Lu Shen heard this, he glanced back at the villagers in Qingshanfang and waved at them.

The little dog also waved at Lu Shen, Lu Shen looked back at the little dog and said, "When I come back, we will practice together." ”

After saying that, Lu Shen walked towards the portal, and just as Lu Shen's whole body entered the portal, a beam of turquoise light shot straight into the sky, and he suddenly saw a group of cultivators flying from afar.

Lu Shen wanted to remind Lu of the blind man, but before he could say anything, he was sucked in by the portal.

After Lu Shen entered the portal, Lu Blind took back the sign, and the surrounding villagers pinched a trick to change their appearance, and at the same time saluted Lu Blind: "Meet, Master Si Li." ”

Just now, he was a little dog who was still a child, and he turned into a petite spirit animal.

I saw him standing on the shoulder of the blind man Lu and said: "My lord, do you say that this is good, isn't it a bit too ruthless to let him deal with such a future, after all, he doesn't know anything." ”

At this time, Lu Blind was no longer an old image, I saw that he was tall, wearing a white plain robe, a black auspicious cloud belt tied around his waist, a silver-white hair draped behind him, his appearance was extraordinary and gentle, and a pair of black eyes looked at the cultivators flying in the distance.

Lu Blind shook his head and said calmly: "Time is running out, the passage of the heavens and all worlds is about to be opened, let's do it as planned." The blind man looked at the bronze tree, his face was a little worried: "I hope all this is still too late, and the future will depend on you, young master." ”
