17. Apprenticeship ceremony

Gu Ziyan slept so deeply this night that his whole body was a little stiff when he woke up.

The early morning sun shone on his face, making Gu Ziyan squint his eyes unconsciously. Next to him was an overturned medicine basket, but fortunately the herbs collected inside were still there, otherwise he would have been busy for most of the day yesterday.

How could he fall asleep here, though? He remembered last night......

"Ziyan!"

Turning around following the voice, Gu Ziyan saw the Baishu rushing towards him from the White Dragon Peak.

"I can be regarded as finding you, yesterday the head of the sect suddenly ordered each peak to open the enchantment, and you can't see your figure everywhere on the White Dragon Peak, it turns out that you came here." Baizhu Kankan stopped in front of Gu Ziyan, took a breath and then gushed endlessly, "I'll tell you, try not to go this way in the future." Next to this Qianhan Peak lives Uncle Mo, he doesn't like to be disturbed, and the disciples of the Taihua Immortal Sect will be specially told about this. “

"I don't know how, but I've been walking and walking here. I accidentally fell asleep here, and now my body still hurts......" Gu Ziyan stood up and touched his extraordinarily sore shoulder.

Of course, he couldn't sue Baizhu, he was "astrayed" because he was digging horse grass, so he ran out of the range of Bailong Peak.

"You're already very lucky, fortunately, this place is not too close to the location of the spiritual veins of Qianhan Peak, otherwise it wouldn't be as simple as a pain." Bai Shu pursed his lips, leaned closer to Gu Ziyan's ear and whispered, "Let me tell you, I heard that a disciple made a bet with someone before and ran to Qianhan Peak...... By the time someone found him a few days later, he had turned from the inside out into an ice sculpture that shattered into powder at the slightest touch. ”

Hearing this description, the corners of Gu Ziyan's mouth twitched, and he asked rhetorically, "Are you lying?" ”

Bai Shu blinked his eyes seriously, and then suddenly laughed: "You don't believe it, when I told those new disciples in previous years, they were very scared. ”

Gu Ziyan rolled his eyes angrily, this kind of talk can also deceive new disciples who have just come into contact with cultivation.

"Okay, okay, although the matter just now is a private rumor and can't be true, but it's true that Qianhan Peak can't enter at will. After all, that sword fairy is too cold, and even I feel a little afraid of him. Bai Zhu said as he picked up the medicine basket beside Gu Ziyan, "Let's go back quickly, the entrance ceremony will start in a while, if you go late, the elder will definitely say that I am unreliable." “

Gu Ziyan nodded, and just took two steps before he remembered something. He stopped Baizhu, who was walking in front, and asked hesitantly, "Baizhu, are there any spirit beasts raised on Qianhan Peak?" For example...... Bai Ze and the like. ”

"How could it be. Elder Mo Yong didn't even accept disciples and attendants, and was only focused on kendo and cultivation, how could he have the leisure to raise spirit beasts. Besides, Bai Ze is a legendary beast that only appears, and no one has ever seen it at all, right? Speaking of this, Bai Zhu turned his head and looked Gu Ziyan up and down, and finally smiled, "If you can ask this kind of question, I'm a little worried about whether you were hurt by the cold of Qian Han Peak." ”

I don't know why, since getting acquainted with Baizhu, Gu Ziyan began to have an urge to beat him from time to time.

However, the spirit beast that looked like Bai Ze in a trance last night was really just his own dream?

[Complete the Adventure "A Thousand Cold Falling Snow" and increase your chance value by 20.] 】

Just when Gu Ziyan was wondering whether to believe his memory, the system suddenly jumped out of a conversation to save him. Since the system says that the adventure has been completed, then what happened last night must be true.

But it seems that no one knows that there is a Bai Ze on Qianhan Peak...... Or is it that this is the only legendary beast that just happened to pass by?

[Your chance value is currently 42 points, and in some episodes, you can use chance points to make the current mission easier, so please don't miss the adventure quest that may be triggered!] 】

The so-called chance, in layman's terms, is luck.

Don't you see those protagonists who fall off the cliff and can't die, and have cheats when they enter a cave, which one is not lucky? It's just that in the Nine Heavens Realm, the ingredients involved in this luck are slightly more complicated, because it involves the number of days, so it is usually called chance.

So, before that, his chance value was only 22 points?

No wonder it's always so unlucky!

Following Baizhu through the two Hongqiao built side by side, he came to the sword platform on the top of Longshou Peak.

The area of the sword platform is very large, even if it is more than enough to accommodate the entire population of the Taihua Immortal Sect, so whenever there is an important ceremony, it will be chosen here.

Then through the wide sword platform, it is the Taiqing Palace, the main hall in the Taihua Immortal Sect.

The ground of the entire Taiqing Hall is paved with bluestone, and there are steps of different heights in the hall, and there are strict regulations on who should stand in which position. It is precisely because of these steps that it is easy to give the illusion that you cannot see the end of the main hall.

At this time, in the Taiqing Palace, starting from the entrance of the main hall, there were guard disciples, outer disciples, and inner disciples in order. On the first floor of the steps are the disciples of the elders, and on the two sides of the second layer of steps are the four elders of Xuan Huai, Xuan Ruo, Xuan Gu, and Xuan Jing.

Gu Ziyan, under the leadership of Baizhu, quickly found his place in the queue of new disciples who had already stood.

"Then I'll go to Master's side first, and you just need to wait for the elders of each peak to pick someone for a while." Baizhu stood beside Gu Ziyan and admonished again. After Gu Ziyan nodded, he turned around and trotted all the way towards the Taiqing Palace.

The hourglass on the sword platform shows that the time has passed noon, which is the original start time of the entrance hall, but I don't know why there is no intention to start in the Taiqing hall. This made some of the new disciples standing on the sword platform can't help but whisper to the people around them.

Retracting his gaze that had been falling in the Taiqing Palace, Gu Ziyan suddenly found that someone was looking at him. It wasn't the kind of casual glance that he was staring at, but almost staring at himself, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Looking along that line of sight, Gu Ziyan's gaze happened to collide with Su Qiong who was diagonally ahead.

The reason why I remembered it so quickly was because the new disciples were still wearing their own clothes, and the word "Su" embroidered on the corner of this young man's clothes quickly evoked Gu Ziyan's memory. However, Gu Ziyan is not in the mood to play a drama of "brothers recognize each other" now, or until the time is ripe, he doesn't want to have anything to do with the Su family at all.

Someone wanted Su Pu to die, so the original Su Pu was already dead, and Gu Ziyan was just a stranger who borrowed Su Pu's body to come back to life.

Su Qiong's afterglow also saw Gu Ziyan, and he was startled at first. Turning to the point where he didn't dare to be sure, he turned his head sideways and called out hesitantly: "Su Pu? ”

"I'm not surnamed Sue." And Gu Ziyan just glanced at him lightly, and then looked away after speaking.

Su Qiong still didn't give up, and Gu Ziyan's cold attitude reminded him of the day when he was in front of the Yuyue Gate, and Gu Ziyan was also disdainful in the crowd. So mixed with dissatisfaction, Su Qiong began to ask tentatively: "Why didn't I see you when I climbed the steps to heaven yesterday?" ”

"With so many new disciples, isn't it normal that you haven't seen me." Gu Ziyan didn't want to raise his head, his gaze just fell in front of him. Because the feeling emanating from Su Qiong's words really made him feel unfriendly. And that kind of look that actually doesn't have much strength, but is always high, and feels that everyone else has to hold his fascination confidence, is what Gu Ziyan hates the most.

Or is this attitude fundamentally the Su family's family inheritance?

The young man seemed to be annoyed by Gu Ziyan's careless attitude, and said reluctantly: "Impossible, I have never forgotten it since I was a child." Besides, yesterday I was the first group of people to reach the top of the Tribulation, and as long as I saw you, I would definitely have an impression. ”

"So, you're staring at me?" Gu Ziyan finally raised his eyes this time, but his eyes looked a little cold.

"I—How could I be staring at you on purpose!" The young man was pierced by Gu Ziyan's words, his tone became impatient, and the words he said were obviously a little inappropriate, "You are just a seventy percent spiritual root who is just qualified to enter the inner gate, but I was personally selected by Elder Xuangu as a personal disciple......

At this point, the young man's voice stopped abruptly.

He naturally knew that it was extremely inappropriate to say this kind of thing in advance before the end of the entrance hall. After all, it has not yet been decided, and it is inevitable that he will give a bad impression if he does so.

But I don't know why, since he first met Gu Ziyan in Biluo City and was ignored by Gu Ziyan, he had a knot in his heart. So much so that later, on the way to Taihua Immortal Sect, after witnessing that Elder Xuangu not only saved Gu Ziyan who was dying, but also brought him back to Taihua Immortal Sect, he had a hostile relationship with Gu Ziyan.

When he ascended the Heavenly Stairs yesterday, he didn't see Gu Ziyan appear, so he was a little skeptical that it was Elder Xuangu who gave Gu Ziyan the privilege of being exempted from the exam......

To this day, Gu Ziyan not only arrived later than all the new disciples, but was also personally brought by Elder Xuangu's disciple Bai Shu, which made the young man inevitably feel jealous in his heart, although he would never admit it.

"Oh, that's right." Gu Ziyan was like hearing something that he had already known, and his reaction was so flat that it couldn't be more bland.

On the other hand, several new disciples around them showed either envy or jealousy after hearing what the young man said.

It's Gu Ziyan's attitude, which is different from others and always doesn't care about anything, makes the young man extremely annoyed. Because this will make the teenager who always enjoys envious eyes feel that Gu Ziyan is looking down on himself.

"You-!" The young man's face was stained with a thin red of shame, but he couldn't attack because of the situation at this moment.

And Gu Ziyan just stood there quietly, as if it wasn't him who was talking to Su Qiong.

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and a sword light flashed in the sky above the sword platform, scattering down with a stream of snow like broken snow. In mid-air, there was a man dressed in white, with black hair like ink, and layers of ice and snow grew from the place under his feet, forming a ladder made of ice and snow in the void.

It seemed that everyone in the Sword Arena felt the chill he brought, and the crowd that had been whispering suddenly fell silent.

But this silence did not last long, and was replaced by the excited voices of more than one person who could not help themselves: "It's Mo Ji!" That was the Sword Immortal Mo who defeated the Cangyan Demon Lord under the sword in three moves! ”
