9. Redeem the hexagram for Ze

The man smiled, his eyes lowering as if thinking about something.

Soon, however, the traces of thought between his eyebrows slowly dissipated, replaced by the same amusing smile as before: "To be honest, I think your ideas are good, and I look forward to meeting you next time." ”

Although he had no way of knowing all the thoughts of the young man in front of him, he could see the part of the young man's eyes - this young man wanted to worship under the Cangying Sect.

It was originally a trivial matter, but he didn't have the time to take the boy into the house himself, and he had more important things to do, so he couldn't stay a little longer.

"Coincidentally, the Cangying Sect will select new disciples in Biluo City this year, and the calculation time is almost these days." The man in black changed his words, took out something from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Ziyan, "Although I can't help you for the time being, I don't want to be treated as a stingy person." ”

It was a palm-sized black brocade box, and when it was opened, three almost transparent immortal jades were placed in the center of the brocade box.

This is the finest immortal jade that is only produced in a few places in Juntianzhou, and its rarity makes it almost impossible to use it as currency. And because it is formed by absorbing the primordial soul that has been separated from the body near the jade vein, it is also called "soul jade".

Due to this special way of formation, the soul jade was able to improve the holder's cultivation by a whole realm over a period of time. After using it, the Yuan Soul and Aura in the Soul Jade will all be consumed.

Gu Ziyan didn't refuse, such things were very useful to him.

While accepting the black brocade box, he also took out the three-hundred-year-old Blood Yellow Spring from the secret package and handed it to the man in black.

For Gu Ziyan's refreshment, the man in black was very satisfied.

He took the Blood Yellow Spring into his arms, and then beckoned to the shopkeeper Su who was always bowing his head next to him: "This kid wants to know what he has seen and heard in the past hundred years, so you will tell him one by one." Don't forget, today he saved you and saved the Su family. ”

"Decay...... Got it. Shopkeeper Su bowed down and bowed to the man in black and Gu Ziyan.

In this worship, all the previous disdain has long been put away, and only respect remains.

After that, the man in black left in a hurry, and it seemed that there was indeed something extremely important.

And Gu Ziyan finally had the opportunity to find a comfortable place to sit down and begin to understand the things he had missed in the past hundred years. Although some unpleasant things happened before, the account of the shopkeeper Su is clear and detailed, and it is just right to tell the major events that have happened in the past hundred years......

About a hundred years ago, there was a battle outside Anlan City in Juntianzhou, which attracted a large number of cultivators to watch the battle at that time.

It was a battle between the Sword Immortal Mo Ji and the Demon Venerable Cangyan, and it was also an open and secret battle between the Immortal Dao leader Taihua Immortal Sect and the Demon Dao giant Cangying Sect.

But the battle ended quickly, so fast that everyone felt abnormal.

As if in the blink of an eye, Mo Yan was severely injured under the ice blade. Then Cang Yan suddenly fled outside Anlan City, but Mo Yan did not chase after him. He just stood silently in place, watching Elder Xuanhuai of the Taihua Immortal Sect and the other group chase after him.

A day later, the news of Cangyan Demon Venerable's death and soul disappearance spread throughout the Nine Heavens Continent, and along with his Yuan Soul, there was also the immortal sword Red Lotus left over from ancient times.

Three days later, Sword Immortal Mo Ji suddenly went into retreat.

After 70 years, not only did he not further cultivate, but he was punished by the head of Xuanxu Zhenren for ten years for some reason.

It is rumored in the market that although Mo Ji did not have any flesh and skin injuries in this battle, it only increased the creation of the mind and spirit, and he may not have been able to cultivate to perfection on the road of cultivation in his life, which is regrettable.

Compared to the Taihua Immortal Sect, the situation of the Cangying Sect at that time was even worse.

Cangyan Demon Venerable fell, but he never left a word about the next successor during his lifetime. This made the Cangying Sect unable to convince the people for a while, and several elders continued to fight secretly, and in less than a year, it was already in turmoil.

Coupled with the loss of the Demon Venerable of the ninth layer of the Transformation God, the Cangying Sect began to suffer repeated blows from other sects, including both the siege of the Immortal Dao and the robbery of the Demon Dao. In the past few years, the Cangying Sect has been in decline, and several elders have even left with their disciples and joined other sects.

Seventy years after everyone gradually forgot the name of the Cangying Sect, a person finally appeared in people's sights, and with the power of one person, he restored the Cangying Sect to its former glory.

This person is the Zhaoming Demon Monarch who is now in charge of the Cangying Sect, and the youngest Divine Transformation Stage cultivator in the entire Nine Heavens Continent.

Zhaoming ......?

When Gu Ziyan heard this, he suddenly felt that this name was somewhat familiar.

I silently recited these two words over and over again, but I couldn't remember where I had seen them, and finally had to give up.

"This Zhaoming Demon Lord acted ruthlessly, and after returning to the Cangming Sect, he abolished all the elders who had defected and cultivated, and removed the position of the elder in the sect, and only set up left and right envoys. At the same time, a large amount of immortal jade was used for the reconstruction of the Cangying Sect, and a large number of new disciples were recruited. ”

When Shopkeeper Su said this, he couldn't help but brush his gray beard, "The several sects that took advantage of the chaos to attack the Cangying Sect back then have also been bloodied one by one in the past few years, and even the Taihua Immortal Sect has not been spared. Just about half a month ago, Xuanjing, the elder of the outer gate of the Taihua Immortal Sect, was ambushed outside his cave, and the people of the Taihua Immortal Sect who came to stop him at that time also suffered heavy casualties, and finally alarmed the head of the Xuanxu Zhenren, and Xuanjing was able to pick up a life. ”

"Who is Xuanjing, isn't there only four high-level members of the Taihua Immortal Sect: Xu, Huai, Ruo, and Gu?" Gu Ziyan couldn't help but ask.

"This was also about a hundred years ago, when the Discipline Elder Xuan Huai introduced a young man to the head of the sect and married his only daughter to him. This person was the Xuanjing Elder who was later in charge of the outer disciples. ”

When Gu Ziyan heard this, he suddenly realized that this Xuanjing was probably his former eldest disciple Lin Jing.

Powerful beauty, Xuan Huai actually gave him such a promise, no wonder he betrayed without warning back then. However, the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, after a hundred years, he will not be able to escape the catastrophe, even if he is lucky not to die this time, one day Gu Ziyan will personally ask for an explanation.

However, because of this incident, Gu Ziyan had a good impression of the Zhaoming Demon Monarch who had not yet met.

"That's all you want to know." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"And one last question." Gu Ziyan lowered his voice and asked tentatively, "Who was that person just now?" ”

Shopkeeper Su shook his head and was silent.

Seeing this, Gu Ziyan understood that this was about an unspeakable secret, so he also left this Linglong Pavilion and ran towards the next destination.

In the most prosperous cities in every state, there is a place called Fish Leap Gate.

Since ancient times, it has been said that if the carp can cross the dragon gate, it can fly into a dragon, and the fish leaping gate is taken from this meaning.

This place is one of the few paths that people from other four continents can take to Juntianzhou before the Yuan Infant Period. Because of the various sects in Jun Tianzhou, every few years, they will send people to other states to collect teenagers with good qualifications.

The Cangying Sect is naturally one of them.

Because there are both immortal and demonic ways in these sects, in order to prevent unnecessary disputes, Yuyuemen is managed by a special person. Without exception, these managers came from the location of the Heavenly Stele Forest, the most revered holy place in the world - Tianshu Mountain.

Tianshu, that is, the hub of heaven and earth, can understand the will of heaven and spread it to the world.

Just like the stele forest in its mountains, no one knows when Tianshu Mountain was founded. It is mysterious and unquestionable, and it is in charge of all the most authoritative lists in the Nine Heavens Continent, proving its accuracy and authority for tens of millions of years.

And the most convincing thing about Tianshu Mountain is that it is the only absolutely neutral force in the Nine Heavens Continent. No matter the Immortal Dao or the Demon Dao, they are all treated equally, and it is impossible to be unfair for any reason.

You must know that being able to occupy a place on the list released by Tianshu Mountain is definitely the dream of most people.

When the footsteps stopped again, Gu Ziyan saw a long queue in front of Yuyue Gate.

As the man in black said in the Linglong Pavilion before, these days are the time for each faction to recruit new disciples. Not only in the vicinity of Biluo City, but almost the entire Yantian Prefecture who were interested in cultivating the truth had gathered here. As a rule of thumb, such scenes can go on for days on end.

Gu Ziyan walked to the end of the line, and compared to the crowd around him, he seemed particularly quiet.

That's right, he doesn't want to get involved in the affairs of the Su family at all now, even if he wants to help the dead Su Pu avenge, it is not suitable now. The most important thing for him now is to follow the tasks given by the system and do his best to worship a powerful teacher. When you have enough strength, you have the ability to take revenge on your grievances.

At the front of the procession is a long table with a black slightly transparent mountain stone next to it, and a pair of hexagram sticks on the table. These two things are the first test conducted by the people of Tianshu Mountain Gate, the spirit test and the hexagram.

The process of soul testing is very simple, as long as it comes into contact with that mountain stone, you can judge a person's spiritual root qualification from the color brightness. But it is not easy to meet the criteria for entering the Fish Leap Gate.

In the Nine Heavens Continent's cultivation law, the spiritual root is divided into purity in addition to attributes.

The purity of the spiritual root can reach up to ten percent, and the seven layers or more can be called the superior qualification, and the ten layers are also called the full spiritual roots, and the probability of appearing is one in a thousand. And within the Fish Leap Gate, only people above the fifth layer of spirit roots are allowed to enter, which means that about half of the people will be eliminated on the first try.

Compared to the soul test, the hexagram does not seem to have any effect. After all, this hexagram is generally known only to oneself, and most sects will not use it as an admission standard.

It's just that there was a rumor that the hexagram could determine a person's fortune in cultivation, otherwise why would Tianshu Mountain do so much? Therefore, there are many people who believe in this and thus take a fancy to the hexagram.

In the waiting procession, some people are happy and some are sad. As the people in front of the queue either left with regret or regret, Gu Ziyan finally stood in front of the long table that was not too big.

Reaching out to touch the mountain stone, Gu Ziyan immediately felt a wisp of breath in the stone penetrate into his body. This breath was a little cold, but it was very gentle in the meridians, and it waited until it had been running in the body for a week before retreating back the way it came.

Then the black mountain stone lit up, and the translucent stone shone like jasper. Only then can you see clearly that the inside of the mountain stone is empty, and the previous turquoise luster is like water that has been continuously injected.

Little by little, the water level rises inside the rock, and it sways to a halt after filling more than half of the space.

"Wood Spirit Root, seventy percent." The little boy who was standing next to the mountain rock and was in charge of reporting shouted out the results of this spiritual test and handed a letter to Gu Ziyan.

This letter is the admission letter of Yuyuemen, and it is also a letter of recommendation to be handed over to your favorite sect later. The results of the trial have been recorded above, and the subsequent sects will no longer conduct qualification tests.

Gu Ziyan was quite satisfied with this result, although the seventy percent spiritual root was not the best, it was enough.

After all, he was slashed once by the Jiujiu Heavenly Tribulation at the beginning, and it was a blessing that the spiritual root was repaired by the wood spiritual source, and of course he would not expect to have full spirit qualifications like the body he once had.

The Tianshu Mountain disciple sitting behind the table was wearing dark blue robes, closed his eyes and picked up the hexagrams on the table one by one, and then flexibly made a set of divination postures with both hands. After the sleeves covered with starlight patterns waved a few times, a piece of paper with the results of the hexagram fell into Gu Ziyan's hand.

When he opened this piece of paper, Gu Ziyan heard this Tianshu Mountain disciple who had always spoken little, and said in a low voice, "Congratulations".

The words on the paper are very special and can only be seen by the person. The font is flickering and flickering, and it seems to be the ethereal starlight in the night sky:

-- Redeem for Ze, the image of rain in the sky.

The judgment said: The redeemer, Yue also.

Zerun all things, happy and Xinxin, profitable, all of them are chaste.
