Chu Ran's news is very easy to check, he has been in the limelight since he entered the Shangqing Sect, and he can know about him as soon as he inquires. Xuanling Daoist listened to the news from the attendants around him, and frowned, he didn't like high-profile people who liked to be in the limelight. First of all, his impression of Chu Ran has been reduced a bit. And when he heard that Chu Ran was testing the root bone when he entered, his physique was very poor, and he was sick and weak, and his face became more and more unsightly.

The young attendant looked at his displeased look and said cautiously: "Although it is rumored that Chu Ran has a very poor physique and is riddled with illnesses and weakness, he defeated Qian Kun with one move and defeated the strong with the weak. Within a month of entry, he occupied the top of the task hall, and countless tasks were completed, and everyone in the door was amazed. Presumably, he is also deeply hidden, not as rumored. ”

Xuanling Daoren's brows loosened slightly, it is true, if it is not for his true talent and learning, how can he occupy the top of the task hall. Although he is only the leader of the outer sect qi refining stage, it can also be seen that this son's strength is good. But strength alone is not enough, it is just refining qi and cultivating, and what future can be seen, it still depends on the endowment and heart. Xuanling Daoist thought about it, hearing was false, seeing was believing, and he decided to go and see this Chu Ran in person. Since Lin Chuyang intends to accept him as a disciple, he, as a master, must strictly check for him, this first disciple is of great significance and cannot be mistaken.

Zhaohua Peak Thousand Cliffs

Chu Ran sat on the top of the cliff, meditating with his eyes closed, in front of him was an abyss, and the white clouds in the distance were like dogs. The wind that blew up from the bottom of the abyss blew his hair, and his face was indifferent, unstained with dust, like a blood-stained rose on a cliff, dazzling.

The aura around him was rich, several times that of other places, and these aura was pure and quiet, like a wisp of breeze enveloping Chu Ran. He had been in the cluster for three days, not moving, not eating or drinking for three days. The ascetic, the land of perception, assimilates with nature. Chu Ran fell into a wonderful realm at the moment, he was born with a physique different from ordinary people, perhaps it was an encounter since childhood, which made him have a deep understanding of human nature, nature, and Taoism.

The gray Daoist Xuanling Daoist came from behind, and he saw Chu Ran meditating in front of him, and his gaze was a daze. This is...... Epiphany? No, not really, more like ...... Boundary!

This is the realm of assimilation!

Assimilation with nature, harmony with nature, communication with nature, comprehension of the Tao!

Xuanling Dao people's faces could not hide their surprise, the so-called realm, mysterious and mysterious, the door of ten thousand laws. A realm is a mystery. The people in the world who can comprehend the realm can be counted on ten fingers, and these people are all brilliant people from the past and present without exception. Unexpectedly, the understanding of this son in front of him is so outstanding, he can comprehend the realm, and it is still known as the most mysterious realm of assimilation.

It can fit in with the ground, assimilate with nature, communicate with the assimilation of the Tao, and transform the wind, the rain, and the pine rain and dew. This is the root of the Tao, the cornerstone of all laws. This son has a promising future! Just this realm, he is enough to laugh at his peers.

Immediately, the Xuanling Daoist smiled and squinted, what a good vision! Good vision! Lin Chuyang, you have not been in tune for a lifetime, but this time it is an eye-opener! This son is given to you as an apprentice, it is all cheap for you! My own apprentice has picked up a big bargain, isn't that just me picking up a bargain? I consciously picked it up and I will be in a good mood.

The Xuanling Daoist looked more and more carefully at his future disciple, and said in his heart, Lin Chuyang, you have gone to shit luck! Such a brilliant disciple can be discovered by you. At this moment, it doesn't matter what kind of physique is weak or has poor bones. This son's comprehension alone is enough to make a group of Yuanying Dao Monarchs break their heads for him. In addition to its extraordinary, there is a more important thing in the realm of assimilation, which can be assimilated with nature, that is, the place of fit, the Tao is the clock! It's hard for such a person to succeed!

Chu Ran, who was incarnating nature and comprehending the Tao, sat motionless on the top of the cliff. Suddenly, from the cliff beside him, a slender snake crawled out. This snake was attracted by the rich and pure aura around Chu Ran, that quiet, peaceful and powerful aura was like a great tonic pill. This greedy snake was attracted to it, and when he opened his mouth, he wanted to swallow Chu Ran, a humanoid great tonic pill.

I saw that the snake ran out, and the slender snake had a huge mouth, as if it could swallow the ground. The Xuanling Daoist on the side was also surprised, and muttered: "Swallow the snake, I didn't expect that the spiritual object in this legend also appeared." ”

It seems that this son's luck is strong, and he is not an ordinary person!

The swallowing snake opened its huge mouth towards Chu Ran, wanting to devour him. The quiet and peaceful aura that surrounded Chu Ran instantly became sharp like a sword. As soon as it touched that aura, the snake swallowing instantly annihilated and turned into nothingness.

The Xuanling Daoist was shocked to see, it was really powerful! Killing people in the invisible Zheng

Such a powerful son, how can it be rumored that he is a waste? Xuan Lingdao muttered in his heart, and sure enough, the rumors are not credible.

The Xuanling Daoist stared at Chu Ran, and the more he opened it, the more he felt ...... This is familiar! This is familiar, where have you seen it?

The Xuanling Daoist pondered carefully, where had he seen this? He looked at Chu Ran's red clothes and suddenly remembered! He was plotted a few years ago, and he was seriously injured and escaped. Fortunately, he was rescued by the Linhai Bai family, and the reason why the Bai family appeared at that time was precisely because of a child!

Cause and effect, cause and effect in the past, effect today. Xuanling Daoist owes Chu Ran a saving grace, and sooner or later he will have to repay it. The Xuanling Daoist looked at Chu Ran, no, this cause and effect has to be repaid. Lin Chuyang accepted him as an apprentice, entered his disciple, and protected him for a safe life, which can be regarded as repaying this cause and effect.

Immediately, the Xuanling Daoist turned around and left, and he walked towards the head of the hall without looking back.

"Senior Brother in Charge!"

Hearing the voice of Xuanling Dao Rao from a distance, Xuan Qing, the head of the Shangqing Sect, who was discussing things with Mo Heng and Qi Xiuning, frowned.

"It's noisy, what kind of system!" Xuan Qing frowned and looked at the Xuanling Daoist, and said in a displeased voice.

Seeing that there were other people in the hall, the Xuanling Daoist immediately looked solemn, and said, "Senior brother, I have something to do with you." ”

"What?"

"My apprentice is going to take in the apprentice!"

When Xuanqing Daoist heard this, he looked at him deeply and said, "Your apprentice accepts apprentices, it is worth your surprise so much?"

The Xuanling Daoist suddenly glanced at his own head brother with a sad look, Senior brother, you don't understand my heart! There is a reason why I am so excited!

Xuanqing Daoist was stunned by his eyes, and said: "Chu Yang's heart is undecided, but it is inappropriate to accept disciples at this time. ”

"That's what I thought, too. "Xuanling Dao is humane, although he wants to repay Chu Ran's cause and effect, he is not a foolish person.

Xuanling Daojun said: "I want to settle this apprentice first, and then accept the apprentice when Chu Yang is married." ”

This is a common thing in the big sects, and it is difficult to find. When you encounter a seedling with good qualifications, settle down first, and then accept apprentices when the time is ripe, so as not to be snatched away by others. This is the so-called first strike is strong, and the last strike suffers.

Xuan Qingdao's eyebrows were relaxed, "Who do you fancie?"

"Chu Ran. "Xuanling Dao is humane.

"Who?" Xuanqing Daoist frowned when he heard this, and said.

"Chu Ran. "Xuanling Daoist again.

"......" Xuanqing Daoist.

Looking at the frowning face of the Xuanqing Daoist, the Xuanling Daoist realized that there was something wrong with this matter, and said, "Is there a problem?"

The Chu family in Kyoto is a terrible thing, this Chu Ran has suffered disasters since he was a child, and he doesn't know what his temperament is. It is rumored that his physique has been abolished, which is not a big deal. The important thing is that the cause and effect of this grievance between Chu Ran and those families in Kyoto will ...... in the future I'm afraid it's also a fight.

The Shangqing Sect belongs to the eastern part of the Xiuzhen realm, far away from the Central Plains, and the imperial family in Kyoto cannot implicate it. Daomen has always been quiet and inactive, pursuing the supreme avenue and transcending the world. Chu Ran's background is too complicated and involves many people, and Xuan Qing is clear about what kind of virtue his junior brother is. Such a person is really not suitable to be his junior disciple's apprentice. Although I have never seen Chu Ran with my own eyes, how many people who have encountered such an experience can keep their hearts?

Xuanqing Daoist looked at Xuanling Daoist and said, "Be cautious when accepting disciples, you can't be rash, this is Chu Ran...... You'd better look again, see again. ”

Xuanling Daoist was stupid when he heard this, and his senior brother suddenly changed his words, which must be dissatisfied with Chu Ran, and he did not agree with him accepting Chu Ran's subordinates. Although he didn't know the reason, Xuan Ling still came up with the fact that he had received Chu Ran's life-saving grace in the past, and at the end, he also said: "This cause and effect has not been delayed for a long time, my Dao heart has been blocked, and it is difficult to make progress in my cultivation for many years. ”

Xuanqing Daoist frowned when he heard this, it turned out that there was still this, the cause and effect could not be done, and the cultivation was hindered, but this was difficult to do.

There are many ways to repay cause and effect, and it doesn't necessarily have to be taken as a disciple. Suddenly, a cold voice came.

When Xuan Ling and Xuan Qing heard this, they turned their heads to look, but it was Qi Xiuning, who had always been silent, who spoke, only to see that his face was like ice and snow, and his voice was cold: "Since it is a life-saving grace, he saves you once, won't you pay it off if you save him again?"

The corners of Xuanling Dao's mouth twitched immediately when he heard the words, he had already heard that the first seat of this Ice Spirit Peak, people were like ice and snow, ignoring the world, not understanding the world, and seeing it today, it was really worse than the rumors.

"That's not the case. "In the past, he saved me by accident, and how could I have happened to appear when his life was in danger? ”

How can anyone remember that someone else died in distress, and then he went out to save people and repay the cause and effect? In this way, it seems deliberate, don't repay the cause and effect, but I am afraid that there will be problems in my own mind.

Qi Xiuning nodded when he heard this, and said, "Reasonable." ”

Qi Daojun, whose face was handsome and cold as ice and snow, thought, With me, how can I put him in such a dangerous situation? "In that case...... his face was expressionless, his voice was clear, "this cause and effect, you can find another way to repay it!"

"......" Xuanling Daoist.

The corners of Xuanling Dao's mouth twitched even more, and he said, "How can I listen, you seem to be very unhappy that I accept Chu Ran as an apprentice?"

Qi Xiuning's face was cold, and he said, "Yours is right. ”

Before the Xuanling Daoist could ask again, he said, "Because he will be my apprentice." ”

"!!!!" Xuanling Daoist.

It turned out to be an apprentice!

Mo Heng Daojun on the side looked surprised when he heard this, turned his head to look at Qi Xiuning, and saw that his face was as pale as ice and snow, cold and unkind, he suddenly smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I also took a fancy to him at a glance and wanted to take him as an apprentice." ”

"......" Xuanling Daoist.

Why did so many apprentices suddenly appear!

Don't be a Xuanling Daoist, even a Xuanqing Daoist was also surprised by this god, this ...... What's going on? Then Chu Ran really has such a great charm, attracting so many Yuanying Daojun to fight for him? Qi Xiuning heard this, raised his eyes, his dark eyes looked at Mo Heng without a trace of emotion, Leng Jun's face did not have a trace of popularity, the whole person was like ice and snow, his voice was cold, and he stated lightly: "He is destined for me." ”

"I'll be his master. Qi Xiuning said.

Mo Heng was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more. It is useless to rely on it, and everything will be known at that time. Although he has a good temper and does not like to fight, he must not be soft when it is time to fight, and he cannot let go of what he wants.

"When the time comes, let that kid choose for himself!" Mo Heng smiled rarely, and said, "It's not just us who accepts apprentices, but also that kid who apprentices." ”

Qi Xiuning didn't say anything when he heard this, his cold expression didn't move, but his cold and dark eyes flashed quickly.

The Xuanling Daoist listened to the confrontation between the two, and the temperature around him dropped sharply, and it was cold, obviously sunny and good, but it was as if he was in the ice and snow. Whether it is Qi Xiuning, who is as cold as ice and snow, or Mo Heng Daojun, who is cold and serious, these two have one thing in common, cold. Is this a violent collision between ice blocks? Because of a teenager?

Xuanling Daoist couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that his disciple is hanging! If it is him, he can still compete with these two. Replaced his unsuccessful apprentice, and there was no chance of victory. will really make trouble for him, but this also shows that the young man is excellent, otherwise how could there be so many Dao monarchs who take a fancy to him?

This scene in the hall of the head of the house has nothing to do with Chu Ran, he doesn't know that he has been looked at by others, so he is waiting for him to jump into the pot. He settled on the top of the cliff for ten, rain or shine, day and night. The dead leaves fell on his shoulders, the dust covered his hair, and he remained unmoved, and his mind was unmoved.

Ten days later, he opened his eyes, and his eyes were as dark as the night sky. His fingers moved slightly, the dust on his body fell, and the dead leaves swirled. He got up from himself, and the cold wind blew his wide robe, red like autumn maple leaves, black hair like satin, bright lips, and a face like a crown of jade, bright and flawless.

Li Xiang, who came to look for him, looked stunned. Chu Ran raised his eyes and looked at him with dark eyes.

"Congratulations!" Li Chang said, Chu Ran's cultivation has advanced, and at this time he is already at the eighth level of qi refining. Li Chang always felt that Chu Ran looked very different at the moment, not different. Could it be that it was because his cultivation had advanced, that he was like this? However, he had not seen this kind of distinctive temperament in any eighth-level Qi refining cultivator, cold, noble, erratic, unpredictable, like wind, like fog, and like rain.

"Something?" Chu Ran looked at him and said lightly.

Li Chang said: "My second uncle asked me to come and give this to you." ”

He took out a storage bag and handed it to Chu Ran, Chu Ran took it without looking at it, and he knew what was in the storage bag.

"Say thank you for being like your second uncle for me. Chu Ran said.

Li Chang grinned and said, "No, what does the relationship between the two of us have, there is no need to be so polite." Your business is my business!"

Chu Ran glanced at him deeply, what does that matter to your second uncle?

The corners of his lips hooked slightly, but Chu Ran's mood was weirdly happy, "I'm going to the mission hall next." ”

Li Chang's expression hesitated for a moment, he looked at Chu Ran, and said, "Are you going to Tu Bang again?"

"Nope. Chu Ran said.

Li Chang was relieved and said, "That's great, my self-esteem has been preserved." You don't know, our group of senior brothers are about to be hit to death by you, you are so young, why are you so stubborn?"

When Chu Ran heard this, the corners of his lips were hooked, and he said with a smile: "Don't worry, you won't have to worry about this soon." ”

Li Chang was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know why.

Chu Ran smiled mysteriously, but he didn't say anything more, turned around and drifted away.

Li Chang stood in place for a while, and suddenly reacted, could it be ......

That's impossible!

It's crazy!

How long has he been getting started?

Less than two months!

What Chu Ran meant by that sentence was that I was going to build a foundation soon, and after building a foundation, you would not be my senior brother, and in turn, you should call me uncle. Isn't it normal to be hit by Uncle Shi? There is a difference between building a foundation and refining qi.

The first entry was only the fifth layer of qi refining, and in less than two months, it was already the eighth layer of qi refining. Even so, it is still far from being built. Li Chang felt a little crazy, this is absolutely not true! Thirty years of foundation building is already talent, twenty foundation building is incredible, what about the age of twelve or thirteen to build a foundation if it is not a weak crown? Only the word demon can be described!

Chu Ran came to the mission hall again, and Senior Brother Zhang was already numb when he saw him.

He said, "Senior Brother Chu, please leave a way for the other disciples to live, don't be so cruel." "Senior Brother Zhang is simply speechless, I have never seen a disciple who is so keen on brushing up the task slaughter list, and the efficiency and speed are extremely high, this son is simply a cattle! Such a ferocious, how can he not be accepted as a disciple by a powerful grandmaster? Let him go to the outer gate to crush and harm others? Such qualifications, he should enter the inner gate.

, took out an object and gave it to him, and said: "This is a hidden task, not open to the public, you have enough permissions to take it." ”

Senior Brother Zhang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, these hidden tasks are very difficult and difficult to complete, so he can always stumble on Senior Brother Chu!

Chu Ran took it and took a look, and at a glance he took a fancy to one of the tasks. Get up, Chu Ran also knows the person who sent this task. It's no one else, it's the first seat of Bingluo Peak, Qi Xiuning, Qi Daojun.

Chu Ran frowned when he saw this name, how could he issue a task such as a given? A Yuanying Daojun issued a task of refining qi and cultivating it? If you look closely, it turns out that the place where the task is completed is a little special.

This is a gathering quest that requires the collection of ten bloodclotted plants. Coagulant herb is a commonly used herb with many medicinal effects and significant effects. However, it was scarce and difficult to obtain, and the cultivation realm usually replaced it with another herb. Chu Ran didn't know what Qi Xiuning wanted the Blood Condensation Grass to do, and of course he didn't need to know. The special thing about Blood Clotting Grass is that the place where it grows is very special, and it only grows in the Valley of the Immortals.

Immortal Spirit Valley is a secret realm in the cultivation realm, which can only be entered by qi refining cultivators, and is open three times a year, once in spring, summer and autumn, and once for a month. There is nothing else in this secret realm, and there are many spiritual grasses. Most of the spirit grasses traded on the market in the cultivation realm came from clusters. Every year when the Immortal Spirit Valley opened, countless Qi Refining Cultivators poured into it, just to collect medicinal herbs.

Chu Ran looked at this task with a thoughtful expression, this time happened to be the time when the Immortal Spirit Valley opened in the summer. He also needs spirit grass himself, and he goes to the secret realm of the fairy spirit valley, which is exactly what he wants. Looking down further, his pupils shrank suddenly, and the reward for this task was actually a sword intent!

Qi Xiu Ningsheng sword heart, sword dao attainments are transcendent, and it is a big opportunity to be able to get him to figure out his sword intent with a sword move! Chu Ran couldn't figure it out, but it was such a simple task, for Yuanying Daojun, this task was simply simple. He can casually find his disciples and monks to complete it, so why bother to come and issue a task at the expense of seeking the near and far, let alone this unbelievable reward.

Strange is strange, but there is a cheap and does not take advantage of the saddle! Who cares what these Yuanying Daojun with abnormal brain convulsions think, he just takes advantage of it! Without hesitation, Chu Ran took over this task!

"That's it!" Chu Ran said.

This time, Chu Ran only took one task, he turned around and left, and went back to Linzi Pavilion. This mission is not something that can be completed in three or two, and he needs to make some preparations. The Fairy Spirit Valley was open for a month at a time, and he went there this time not only to complete the task, but also for the spirit grass in it. He is now a veritable jar of medicine, and the medicine has not been broken.

Not long after he left the mission hall, a man hurried in.

This person's face is like a crown of jade, his figure is tall, and he has cultivated to the ninth level of qi refining, and his name is Meng Cheng. The taskbar he held in his hand was the one he had just read, he saw it from the top to the bottom, from the beginning to the end, he looked at it once, but he didn't find the task he was looking for, and he read it again, how could it not be?

No way, he obviously got the news. Meng Cheng raised his head, looked at Senior Brother Zhang, and said, "I heard that the Qi Shou of Ice Spirit Peak issued a mission yesterday?"

Senior Brother Zhang glanced at him, and said in a cold voice: "Yes!"

"Why isn't there this?" Meng Cheng said.

"No, you're picked up. Senior Brother Zhang said.

Meng Cheng's face suddenly changed, and he said, "Who took it!"

"Sect secrets must not be divulged. Senior Brother Zhang said.

Meng Cheng immediately gritted his teeth when he heard this, his face was very ugly, since he got the news of this mission, he immediately rushed here, but the result was still a step slower! This task was very important to him, or that was the reward of the task was very important to him! A sword intent, that was the sword intent of the Yuanying Daojun! Especially the sword intent of Qi Xiuning, the most famous sword monarch in the upper row of the sword path! As long as he could comprehend a little bit from it, it would be infinitely useful!

Meng Cheng pressed the emotions in his heart, took out a bottle of the best Huiyuan Dan and a bag of spirit stones to Senior Brother Zhang, and said, "I'm still bothering you to make it convenient." ”

Senior Brother Zhang glanced at him and said, "What are you doing?" You know the rules and precepts better than me, but I can't do anything about it, I'm sorry." ”

Senior Brother Zhang was disdainful in his heart, am I the kind of person who can be bought? For the sake of a few spirit stones and a few bottles of elixir, I can sell people? I look up to me too much! What does Meng Cheng want to do, Senior Brother Zhang naturally knows in his heart that he will not be the first to come to the door, nor will he be the last. The reward of that task is too attractive, not only a Qi refining disciple, but even a Zhujin Dan monk can't resist this temptation, that is a sword intent of Qi Daojun!

Chu Ran took on this task, it was chance, luck, danger, and test!

The mere fact that those who come in and covet the rewards of the mission is enough to give him a headache.

But, Chu Ran, would he care about this?
