Chapter III: The Enemy's Tracks
Shang Tian slowly walked towards the Shangqing Palace. This Zixiao Palace, which seems to cover an area of only a few tens of kilometers, actually contains countless large and small spaces inside, and if they are all folded apart, it is estimated to be as big as ten earths.
Even if Shang Tian were to walk to the Shangqing Hall on foot now, I am afraid it would take several months.
However, there is naturally a solution to this situation inside Zixiao Palace, and the ubiquitous teleportation formation is specifically designed to shorten the distance inside Zixiao Palace.
But even so, after changing twelve teleportation arrays in a row, it took fifteen minutes for Shang Tiancai to enter the Shangqing Palace.
This is the most important hall of the Zixiao Palace, every time a major event occurs in the sect, the elders of the sect and the ten true disciples of the sect will be summoned to discuss the matter.
The so-called Ten True Disciples are not arranged according to the strength of the disciples, or what kind of competition is held.
The top ten true lineage disciples are personally selected by each of the previous generation of true lineage disciples, who have to go through the five major tests of Dao heart, Dao nature, root organs, qualifications, and luck, accumulate enough contributions to the sect, make all kinds of hard work, and obtain the consent of the master and the five elders of Zixiao, so that they can become candidates for true lineage disciples.
Then, in the case of breaking through to the Yuanying realm, after the previous generation of true disciples became Yuan Shen Zhenren again, they could become a new generation of true disciples and cultivate the ten fundamental divine powers of Zixiao Palace. The true disciples of each of these veins could only cultivate one of the ten fundamental divine powers.
Only after becoming a true person of the Yuan Shen can one choose two more fundamental supernatural powers, and only the master and the five elders of Zixiao of each generation can cultivate more than five fundamental supernatural powers.
Zixiao Palace's strictness in the selection of true disciples, and the care with the inheritance of the ten fundamental divine powers, all show the strength of these ten divine powers and the importance of the status of true disciples.
The top ten true disciples can be said to be the backbone of Zixiao Palace, and they are also the future leaders.
The process of becoming a disciple of the Ten True Transmissions is also an extremely arduous process. It often takes at least 70 or 80 years. It is not for nothing that it has been one or two hundred years long.
But just two years ago, a young man named Shang Tian actually became a true disciple of the Zixiao Palace's Ascension Immortal Palace, and became one of the top ten true disciples, and the time it took was only five years.
This mythical speed, although surprising, is expected by most people in the know.
Slowly entering the Shangqing Palace, the rest of the nine true disciples had already arrived. The position of the head teacher, as well as the positions of several other elders, were still vacant.
A girl in ancient costume beckoned to Shang Tian and said, "Xiao Tian'er, come here, we are talking about you." ”
Shang Tian smiled humbly, like an ordinary wooden boy, carefully hid his edge, and walked to the girl's side and sat down.
The girl's name is Hua Lily, and she is a true disciple of the Star Hall of Zixiao Palace, and she looks like she is only in her twenties. In fact, the years spent after the achievement of the Yuan Infant have been more than 700 years.
Seeing Shang Tian sitting over, she asked, "This time the Heavenly Court has ordered us to recover the earth. Xiao Tian'er, you are from the earth, tell us about the earth. ”
"Senior Sister Hua, can you stop calling me Xiao Tian'er." Shang Tian smiled bitterly: "I have already reported the information of the earth to the master Venerable and the Heavenly Court, and I summoned us over today." That's probably what I'm talking about, and you'll just hear them talk about it in a moment. ”
"Yo, you're only ten years old. Don't think that a long look like an adult is really an adult. Hua Lily knocked on Shang Tian's head and said, "In my place, you are Xiao Tian'er." Xiao Tian'er, tell me what the earth is like? I heard that they are all mortals there, but those mortals have no mana and can go to heaven and sea?
I stayed in the little immortal realm all day to cultivate, and I was bored and sick. Won't you tell me about the earth to relieve your boredom? ”
"Alright, Lily, don't embarrass him." On the other side, a heroic young man with a long sword on his back said, "I think it was Heavenly Court who told him to keep it secret, so he couldn't say it." ”
Shang Tian smiled, arched his hand towards the heroic young man, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Jianhui." It's just that no one can find that there is always a touch of coldness in the depths of his gentle smile.
This young man known as Jian Hui was a true disciple of Ten Thousand Sword Peaks of Zixiao Palace, and his time as a true disciple was the longest among the current top ten true disciples, and his cultivation was enough to rank in the top three among the top ten true disciples.
When Lily heard them say this, she pouted and didn't ask any further.
Not long after, an elder from the Zixiao Palace rushed to the Shangqing Palace, and they either came with the imperial sword, or came with light, and some of them directly broke through the air, or sent their own disciples, or even spirit beasts as representatives.
About two hours later, except for the head of Zixiao Palace and the five elders of Zixiao, everyone arrived one by one.
The reason why it took so long was related to the time concept of the people in Zixiao Palace. Because of the lifespan of hundreds of years and thousands of years, each retreat may be hundreds of years, so their concept of time is completely different from that of earthlings.
Two hours of waiting time is no different from ten minutes for them.
Everyone didn't show any impatience in the process of waiting, and some of them even seized the time to cultivate while waiting. And those who did not have a real body also went out to wander or retreat and cultivate.
Finally, a white-haired man wearing a purple crown and a purple robe walked into the Shangqing Palace, and behind him, there were five men and women of different shapes, they were the ultimate power of the Zixiao faction, the five elders of Zixiao.
Including the Zixiao Sect Leader, these six people are all above the Yuanshen Zhenren, and they have cultivated to the heavens who have reached the void, and they are only one step away from the transformation of the heavens and people, and each of them has the power to catch the stars and the moon and move mountains and seas.
……
At the same time, the Earth side was apparently unaware of the expeditionary force on the white land.
They are concentrating their efforts on deciphering the electromagnetic signals found at the edge of the solar system.
Pointing to the star map in the command room, where the edge of the solar system is located, one of the non-commissioned officers said, "This is where we found the electromagnetic signal and, according to the latest intelligence, the remnants of a large amount of thermal radiation." ”
There should be a vacuum in the universe, and thermal radiation, like stars in the night, is so obvious in the cosmic vacuum.
Hearing the non-commissioned officer's report, Xia Liekong frowned and said, "Have you checked the recent space records?" Did a civilian spacecraft pass by? ”
"We have checked the space records for the last six months, and no civilian or military spacecraft will pass by there, and the staff suspects that an unknown spacecraft is approaching the solar system." (To be continued......)
