..................
Half a day later, Zhong Xiu lived in the post house in the city.
Zhong Xiu put his bag into a small cloth bag, and after thinking about it, he took out a red spirit stone from it, put it away closely, and then put the small cloth bag behind him and walked towards the door.
In the small courtyard, a middle-aged man in a green robe wearing the costume of the Miaoyin Sect stood there, his cultivation had also reached the innate realm, his face was full of anxiety, and when he saw Zhong Xiu coming out, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Senior sister, why did you suddenly give up your qualification to ascend to immortality, such an opportunity is hard to come by!" said the green-robed middle-aged man.
"Senior brother, the matter has come to this point, what good is it to say more. Zhong Xiu smiled slightly.
The middle-aged man in the green robe was about to defend himself a few more sentences, but at this moment, a middle-aged man walked into the post house.
This person was dressed in a yellow robe, his face was capable, and the sleeve of his left arm was empty, as if he had broken an arm.
This person was the one who accompanied Princess Moonni to the auction that day.
Zhong Xiu and the green-robed middle-aged man were shocked when they saw this, and with the cultivation of the two of them, they didn't even notice that someone was approaching.
"I wonder who Your Excellency is?" asked Zhong Xiu.
"Don't get me wrong, there's no malice here. The one-armed middle-aged man had a kind smile on his face.
"This is Miss Zhong Xiu, in the next is Fei Qing, the guest elder of the Lushan Dynasty, today thanks to Miss Zhong Xiu's qualifications, Princess Yueni was selected. I am here to express my gratitude to Miss Zhong Xiu on the order of King Lu Shan. The one-armed middle-aged man said. took out a gift box from his body and handed it to Zhong Xiu.
Zhong Xiu's beautiful eyes flashed. Not as if surprised, he reached out and took it.
"Princess Yueni's cultivation is profound. The qualifications are also superb, and it is a natural thing to be selected for the qualification of ascending to immortals, and please take me to thank Princess Yueni. Zhong Xiu said.
The one-armed middle-aged man nodded, didn't stay long, turned around and walked out.
Zhong Xiu opened the box, and inside was a silver-gray ring.
"Storage ring!" the green-robed middle-aged man was taken aback.
Zhong Xiu calmly picked up the ring with two shallot-like fingers, dripping blood to recognize the master, and his divine sense penetrated into the ring.
The ring contained a lot of cultivation resources and pills. Spirit stones, magic weapons are readily available, and there are a lot of them.
She was silent for a moment, then removed the ring and disconnected from it.
"Senior brother, there are a lot of cultivation resources in this, please bring them to the master. Zhong Xiu handed the ring to the middle-aged man in the green robe.
"Senior sister, won't you go back to the sect with me?" The green-robed middle-aged man subconsciously took the ring, but when he heard this. I was taken aback.
"My little sister has some personal matters to deal with, so she won't return to the sect for the time being. Trouble Senior Brother to convey to the master for me, tell him not to worry, I will definitely go back one day. Zhong Xiu said.
The green-robed middle-aged man looked at Zhong Xiu's expression. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to persuade him, but he didn't say a word after all.
"Then it's troublesome Senior Brother. Zhong Xiu bowed to the green-robed middle-aged man. Walk outside.
......
Almost at the same time, the northern part of the Great Qin State.
This is already the extreme north of the Dongzhou Continent. Goose feathers and snow are flying in the sky all the time, and cold snaps are sweeping. Everywhere is a white world.
A huge mountain range is like an ancient beast lying in a raging snowstorm, eternal and eternal.
This huge mountain range is the famous Heishui Mountain Range of Great Qin, and a huge and majestic black river flows under the peak.
In such a cold place, the black river shows no signs of freezing, and the name of this mountain range is derived from this black river.
Where the great black river flows into the mountain range, there is a huge flat land, and countless huge buildings rise from the ground.
Among them, the grandest is a towering giant tower, the tower is hundreds of zhang high, compared to some of the surrounding sky peaks are not inferior, as if the giant towers in the wind and snow, let the wind like a knife, the blizzard is like rain, thousands of years overlooking this land of ice and snow.
At the top of the giant tower, a dazzling red light is emitted, as if there is a round of sun hanging on the top of the tower.
The giant tower, together with the huge buildings below, is brightly lit, and countless people can be faintly seen passing by in it.
This is where the main altar of the Heavenly Demon Sect is located.
In the midst of a huge palace, where thousands of people are gathered at this moment.
In the center of the main hall is a huge altar, the top of which is burning with a raging black flame, and in the center of the altar, there is a statue of a black man, with a black face and ghost horns, holding a three-strand fork, and his appearance is hideous.
In front of the statue, six figures stood side by side.
After a series of competitions and selections, the Heavenly Demon Sect's Demon Yang Ceremony finally decided the six winners today.
Among the six people, four men and two women are all young people, with a lofty spirit and outstanding demeanor.
Several people stood with their hands in their hands, calmly facing the crowd in the audience.
Among the six, the one standing on the far left looked excessively young, dressed in a gray robe, with a delicate countenance, and looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old at most.
If Shi Mu was here, he would recognize that this person was Feng Li, who had been in Fengcheng that day, and he actually appeared in the Heavenly Demon Sect, and he also participated in the Demon Yang Ceremony.
It's a pity that Shi Mu couldn't come to participate due to various reasons, otherwise he would have been surprised.
Feng Li was looking ahead without squinting at this time.
"Brother Feng, I didn't expect that there would be such a talent as Your Excellency in the Ganzhou Yin Demon Sect, it's really surprising. A bald young man beside Feng Li spoke.
"Sect Brother Falsely praised, at this point of strength, how can he be compared with a general altar disciple like Sect Brother, it's just a fluke. Feng Li said.
The bald young man smiled, seemed to be quite satisfied with Feng Li's answer, turned his head away, and didn't say anything more.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a black robe walked up slowly.
This person looks to be only in his thirties, with sword eyebrows and sideburns, and a short black beard on his mouth, which looks very elegant.
But looking at the appearance, this person looks like a Confucian. In fact, he was the Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect of the Great Qin Kingdom, Situ Hao.
A corner under the altar. Several black-robed men stood here, looking at the six people on the altar.
These people are the three people of the Black Demon Gate, mainly Jin Xiaochai.
Mo Ning's breath was faint at the moment. He had advanced to the early stage of congenital development, and looked at the six people in the ring, envious and jealous.
Beside him, Bai Shuixiu was still in the realm of a spirit level warlock at the moment, but his face was relatively calm.
The Demon Yang Ceremony did not deliberately limit the cultivation of the contestants, it seemed that more age and qualifications were taken into account, and the final selection was made according to a comprehensive ranking converted by certain rules.
Mo Ning and the others failed to enter the election after all, and they did not even rank in the top 30.
Mo Ning glanced at Jin Xiaochai in a blink of an eye, and they were in a group. Originally, only Jin Xiaochai was very hopeful of being selected, but in the last round of the competition, Jin Xiaochai met a strong opponent, was defeated, and finally missed the top six, although it was still ranked in the top ten, but the difference with the top six is not small.
But looking at Jin Xiaochai's expression at the moment, he didn't seem to care.
"Ladies and gentlemen. After several days of competition, the Demon Yang Ceremony has finally ended today, and six talents have been selected as they wished. Situ Hao said with a smile.
"As for the others who didn't make the cut, there are also major rewards for being in the top 10. You can pick it up later at the Deacon's Hall. Situ Hao paused for a moment and continued.
Under the altar, Jin Xiaochai glanced at Feng Li on the stage. Pouting, she was defeated by this man.
"This Moyang Ceremony has gained a lot. We are waiting for the Demon Gate to be favored by the Demon God, and our power is growing day by day......"
Situ Hao's voice lingered in the hall. Everyone around listened attentively, but Jin Xiaochai seemed to be a little absent-minded.
She flipped over and took out a jade plaque and rubbed it gently.
The light flashed on the jade plate, and a figure appeared, it was Shi Mu, and there were a few lines of small characters next to it.
"Damn, what the hell did you kid do in Tianyu City, he was wanted with the evil people of the Stygian Moon Cult......" Jin Xiaochai scolded in his heart.
At this moment, Situ Hao's words had already been finished.
"This is the end of the ceremony, you can leave and have a good rest. Situ Hao said.
Hearing this, everyone in the ceremony walked out one after another.
Soon, only seven people remained on the altar in the entire temple.
"Come with me. Situ Hao said a word to the six people and walked towards the depths of the main hall.
A moment later, the group stopped in front of a black gate with a plaque on it that read 'Heavenly Demon Palace' in three large blood-colored characters.
The three blood-colored characters seem ordinary, and the font is not outstanding, but it looks clumsy and unworkable, but the three big characters exude a special atmosphere.
Feng Li and the other six looked at these words, their bodies shook, and their breathing became a little short.
"Okay, the six of you are the winners of this Demon Yang Ceremony, and according to the usual practice, each of you can get a Demon Yang Pill. Situ Hao waved his hand, and six black boxes flew out of his hand and flew towards the six people.
The six hurriedly reached out to catch it.
"The nature of the Demon Yang Pill is special, you must calm your mind and calm your breath, and carefully refine it for 7749 days, remember not to forget. From today onwards, the six of you will be in retreat in this Heavenly Demon Temple. This hall was built by the predecessors of the Heavenly Demon Sect, which will help you to cultivate and improve, ascend as soon as possible, and serve the demon gods. Situ Hao said.
The six of them glanced at each other and agreed in unison.
......
In a small courtyard building of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
"Senior Sister Jin, are you leaving?" Mo Ning looked at Jin Xiaochai, who was already ready to go, and asked.
"Not bad. The two of you will collect my share of the reward, and then return to the sect as soon as possible. Jin Xiaochai took out a black cloak and put it on her body, wrapping her plump body.
"Then Senior Sister Jin, where are you going, and how can I tell the master?" Mo Ning asked.
"I'm going to go out and travel for a while, and then I'll return to the sect, so you can just tell the senior brother like this. Jin Xiaochai said a word, then ignored Mo Ning and the others, and walked outside.
Mo Ning and Bai Shuixiu glanced at each other, and some looked at each other.
Half an hour later, Jin Xiaochai stood near the Heishui Mountain Range, on a snowy plateau, looking at the vast snowfield in front of him, silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
A moment later, she leaped off the ground in a flash, and her figure quickly disappeared into the snowstorm. (To be continued.) )
