Chapter 100: The Examination Begins
After the white lotus left, the water curtain cage dissipated by itself, and only Zhao Yi and the whimpering little beast were left in this space. Soon, Xiao Jinlin saw Zhao Yi's spirit body through the portal, and immediately flew towards Zhao Yi, wanting to seek his comfort.
"Well, we don't have anything to do with the wicked. ”
Zhao Yi hugged it, smoothed its scales, and said lovingly: "Don't cry, I want to find a way to make up for your origin." You yourself have to fight for your strength, work hard to cultivate, and strive to return to the Holy Spirit level as soon as possible, and teach the guy who beat you a hard lesson. ”
The handle touched its front hooves, and suddenly thought of the Holy Spirit who had just stayed in the lotus bone, and what the White Lotus said, Zhao Yi couldn't help but be stunned, and said: "You must be strong, otherwise your master will be bullied, you must not want to see me beaten, right?"
Xiao Jinlin nodded, whining, Zhao Yi said happily: "I know that you must have your heart for your master, we must support each other, and we will never bow our heads to the evil forces!"
Xiao Jinlin was infected by Zhao Yi's high emotions, broke free from Zhao Yi's arms, and roared into the sky, making a shocking sound, in response to Zhao Yi's words.
"Don't scream so loudly!"
Zhao Yi was frightened, hurriedly covered its beast mouth, and opened his mouth to say: "White Lotus is now on a bar with me, if you attract her attention again, it will only be me who is unlucky!"
Jin Lin in front of him opened his cute eyes and tilted his head to express his puzzlement, Zhao Yi said helplessly: "You better go back first, I'll call you if you have something." ”
Seeing it return to the Holy Pupil space, Zhao Yi sighed, swept in the direction where the white lotus had flown away before, and after finding the location of the Qifang Ancient Jade, he went straight into the second leaf to temper his spirit. Now he has no desire to rest.
The next day, when Zhao Yi saw Shen Yu and the two daughters, the other party looked at his swollen eyes with a shocked expression, and his heart was unclear.
"Zhao Yi, you... What's wrong with your eyes?"
Shen Yu asked stupidly: "I haven't seen you for one night, how did you become like this, and the corners of your eyes are still cracked?"
"It's... This one. ”
Zhao Yi's eyes rolled and he stammered: "Last night, my legs were inconvenient, and my mental strength didn't control my body well, so I accidentally fell off the bed, and my eyes happened to hit the corner of the table, so I made this miserable appearance." ”
"The table should be far away from the bed!"
Liu Xiaoyi was puzzled: "Brother Zhao Yi, can you fall so far?
Zhao Yi coughed, Shen Yu's expression moved slightly when he saw this, and he hurriedly said: "Maybe the table in his room is very close to the bed, Xiaoyi, let's not dwell on this matter, hurry up and get on the road, the time for the assessment is getting closer and closer, and it's not good if it's overdue!"
Liu Xiaoyi nodded, Shen Yu pushed Zhao Yi's wheelchair out of the inn, and the three of them hit the road again.
During this time, they also rescued a young girl who was surrounded by several wicked people in the barren forest and sent her back to the village. Bidding farewell to the reluctant woman, the three of them continued to walk in the snow.
The cold wind was blowing, Zhao Yi's heart moved, and the sword qi of the Haitian realm was moved, causing it to fly out quietly and penetrate into the ground several feet deep, and the sword moved with the person. While shuttling underground, a yellow energy cyclone was sucked into the sword body, and the entire sword qi changed from colorless to the color of rock and soil, exuding an extremely thick aura.
"According to what Bai Lian said, it has now entered the middle of winter, it is difficult to encounter thunder and lightning weather again, and there are no special elemental areas such as Lei Yuan and Lei Lin for me to sacrifice into Thunder Sword Qi, so I might as well sacrifice Earth Sword Qi first. ”
Zhao Yi sat in a wheelchair, his body was gently pushed by Shen Yu, and said in his heart: "The defense is already there, and the attack will be better with nine moonflowers." Listening to Bai Lian, Yuehua's power is far less than that of Thunder Sword Qi, but for me now, it is enough. ”
As he pondered these things, far behind him, where the three of them had walked, the ground suddenly collapsed, forming a ditch several feet deep, all the way to the place where they had stepped before. Zhao Yi didn't know this, and this ditch became a beautiful river when the first rain of spring came.
After a long time, a majestic giant city was imprinted in their eyes, and the three of them looked up and walked into the city with the font of 'Tiangang City' engraved on foot.
When they were in the city, they immediately knew that this big city built on the mountain was the area directly under the jurisdiction of the Tiangang Sword Sect, and even the name was 'Tiangang', which can be known from this point, it is said that the city lord is also an elder of the inner sect.
"It's good to catch up!"
Shen Yu said: "Tomorrow is when the sect begins to recruit disciples from the outside world, and Xiao Yi's realm and I are both in the middle of the Canghai Realm, which meets the minimum early cultivation requirements. But Zhao Yi, your breath seems to have been in the late stage of the Spirit Realm, are you sure you can pass the assessment?"
Zhao Yi said with a smile: "I have already stepped into the Canghai Realm with half a foot, and besides, the sect must be looking at strength and talent, I believe they will be more tolerant!"
"That's it!"
Liu Xiaoyi continued: "If they really don't accept Brother Zhao Yi, then their vision is really bad, and it doesn't matter if they don't enter such a sect!"
After a pause, he raised his eyes again and said, "There is still half a day, let's take a stroll here, it is so lively here!"
Shen Yu nodded, pushed Zhao Yi to look at this elf ghost who couldn't rest for a moment, jumping up and down, looking around.
Approaching the perfect time for the major sects to recruit disciples, monks and warriors from all over the world gathered in one city. As long as they are young men and women who have reached the age standard and started their cultivation to the Canghai Realm, they will all grasp this rare opportunity, and if they miss this time, they will have to wait for another three years.
Not everyone can afford to wait for three years, some people just missed the good youth, resulting in excessive age, and they can no longer enter the sect, they can't practice the most top-level exercises, martial arts, and they can't even eat a spirit pill.
Therefore, when recruiting people every three years, it is so hot and lively, and now the city is even more crowded. Even though it snows heavily, the streets are still crowded with people.
Hawkers and merchants of all kinds saw the business opportunity and set up stalls on both sides of the street. There are those who sell spiritual weapons, calling for blowing and breaking hair, and they are extremely sharp.
There are also those who shout for supernatural martial arts, and when Zhao Yi and the three of them passed by that person, he was swearing to a fat man with a fat head and big ears next to him, introducing a kind of spitting exercises: "This exercise is written by a real power, which can quickly absorb the essence between heaven and earth, and the spiritual energy in the spirit stone." When the exercises are completed, just exhaling a breath can kill a cow!"
"It's so powerful!
There are also those who sell panaceas, claiming that they can rise a small level by eating one, and they don't know if it's true or not, and they even dragged a passerby to sell it: "This little brother, seeing that you are skinny and vain, you may not be able to do that." On my side, in addition to the elixir that rises to the realm, there is also the golden spear pill. After you eat it, you will be majestic for a day and a night, and your energy will be unlimited! How about it, do you want to have one?"
The little brother's face was flushed, and he immediately raised his hand to shake off the other party's hand, and said in embarrassment: "Who... Who can't do that? Does Lao Tzu need you this? Lao Tzu can control three women in one night, and don't get out of bed for half a day, and look down on anyone, hum!!"
After saying that, he turned around and left angrily, and after a long time, he came back secretly, threw a bag of money, took the golden gun in his hand, and walked somewhere with a flushed face......
The hustle and bustle of the mundane filled the entire big city, and until midnight, there were still people roaming the streets of the city one after another, and Zhao Yi and the three of them had already settled down to rest.
Heavy snowfall overnight lifted the snow layer on the ground to a new height, and when the faint early sun rose, the land shone like a crystal world.
The crowd of people in the city poured out, walking towards the mountain behind Tiangang City, climbing the steep mountain wall like the sky, the spire of the majestic mountain should have touched the clouds, but it was cut straight and flat halfway up the mountain, leaving a vast flat land, covered with bluestone floors.
Figures climbed up from all around the mountain, gathering more and more, gradually crowding the open land. It is a cold winter, and it is on the high mountain, and there are many cold winds here, which make everyone's bodies tremble.
There is a special place on the edge of the broad land, I saw that there were two rather large stone swords inserted in the bluestone floor, dozens of feet away from each other, and everyone was facing there.
In the noise, there was a ripple between the two stone swords, and then a middle-aged man and two sect disciples wearing Tiangang sword clothes walked out together, and their feet landed on the bluestone slab on the edge.
Two of the sect disciples each carried an arm-thick iron chain in their hands, and the other end hung high into the air, as if they were tied to something.
The middle-aged man was also dressed as a sword, but on his chest were three heavenly swords that pierced the mountain, and his momentum shook the sky. The status in the sect is estimated to be relatively high, at least at the level of an elder.
He glanced around at the crowd of black oppressors, his spiritual power rose, and he shouted loudly: "Today is the day when my Tiangang Sword Sect recruits disciples once every three years, and like the previous rules, it is impossible for those who want to fish in troubled waters to enter our sect." Those who are over the age standard, those who do not reach the realm, please step down by yourself!"
The sound was as loud as thunder, shocking and small, which shocked everyone's hearts, and many people subconsciously retreated. Zhao Yi raised his eyes and saw that most of them were older or lower realms.
"Zhao Yi, are you sure you can do it?" Shen Yu was a little worried.
"My breath is very close to the Canghai Realm, it should be fine. Zhao Yi responded, in fact, he didn't have a score in his heart.
The middle-aged man glanced at the rest of the crowd again, frowned, and said, "It seems that some people are still restless, but it's a good thing that you have confidence in yourself." ”
Immediately, word by word: "Open, mountain, door!"
As the words fell, the two disciples each pulled the iron chain in their hands, and the sound of gold and stone sounded, and as the chain continued to pull, the chain body straightened, and the space behind them creeped like jelly.
I saw a hundred-meter-high space divine gate appear in the air, and the portal was like an inverted huge sword blade, with two iron chains connected to the sword. The two disciples continued to pull, opening a crack in the door from the sword spine of the portal, and a trace of cloud qi came out and floated towards everyone.
"This cloud!"
Zhao Yi exclaimed: "This is aura, it has been rich to the extreme, and it has turned into a cloud haze!
"Yes, no wonder everyone wants to become a disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect. Shen Yu was also surprised.
"I've heard for a long time that as long as you become a disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect, even if you don't pay attention to cultivating spiritual power, you will rise steadily, and even sleeping is unconsciously improving!"
Liu Xiaoyi's eyes turned straight and said coquettishly: "I also heard that the land of their sect is not in this heaven and earth, but in a secret realm. Now it seems that it is true!"
The crack in the door opened wider and wider, and the mountain gate of the Tiangang Sword Sect was finally completely opened, and the two disciples tied the iron chains in their hands to the hilts of the two previous stone swords.
But in the gate of the gods, the steps spread out, leading to a suspension bridge, the suspension bridge passes through the moat, and behind it is a flattened mountain peak and broad land, and in front of the wide ground there are two human-shaped stone statues, the stone statues are extremely huge, nearly twenty zhang high, all of them are holding swords and pestles.
The line of sight swept all the way to the rear margin, the mountains and rivers towered into the clouds, the hanging spring waterfall was hidden in it, and the jungle was dense, and the fierce beasts walked slowly, pacing and drinking dew. I can see birds of prey flying and crying in the sky, it is really a fairyland!
When everyone was amazed, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted: "The assessment begins!"
