Chapter 8: Humble Peak

This peak, named Humble Peak, as its name suggests, has no magnificent scenery, no majestic momentum, no spiritual beauty fairy roots, and nothing surprising.

It is ordinary, almost desolate, like a wilderness, withered vines and old trees, faint crows, blood-colored sunset, a group of admiration, not like the main peak of Xianmen at all.

The clumsy peak is ruined, the rubble is endless, the artemisia grass is overgrown, the thorns are everywhere, and there is no mountain road left. In the sky, seven or eight shadows flew by, and when they passed by, they all froze, and then landed.

They are only in their twenties, and when they saw this main peak that had been silent for many years, there were people who came to look for fairy fate today, which made them feel very surprised, so they came to take a look.

"I've seen Uncle Li." There were men and women among the people who came, and after they finished saluting the old man, they all looked at Jiang Youda, Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue.

"Senior, what kind of test are you going to do?" Ye Fan asked the old man.

This old man, who was thin and a little weak, was the only person in Humble Peak's current door, named Li Ruoyu, he shook his head and said, "Actually, there is no need to test, no one has been here for many years, if you insist on staying, you will all pass the test." ”

Beside them, the seven or eight young Taixuan disciples all chuckled, they couldn't understand why these three people chose a declining main peak.

"I estimate that the qualifications of these three people are terrible, and it is impossible to be selected by other main peaks, so they came here to put them to the test."

"These two people are a little clever, they want to leave the tree by this means, but they don't know that it is useless at all, once they choose this mountain, they can't join other main peaks at all."

"Over the years, there have always been people who think they are smart, but in the end they don't end up walking away.

These young disciples whispered and sneered, they were the disciples of the main peak in front, where the lineage was now extremely prosperous.

In the face of several people's discussions, Jiang Youda seemed quite quiet, without the slightest sense of existence, he has never done a battle without interests, not to mention that he still wants to get all the secrets, and try not to be in the limelight as much as possible.

But Ji Ziyue couldn't bear it anymore, she was a member of the Ji family of the Ancient Family, when had she ever been wronged except for Ye Fan? Smearing her pink cheeks like a small flower cat, with only a pair of big eyes and a compelling aura, she glanced at these disciples, then looked at the old man, and said, "Senior Li, let's follow the rules and test us as we should."

"There's no need to ......," Li Ruoyu shook his head.

"Uncle Li, since they want to test and prove themselves, you can give them a chance." Not far away, those disciples were all chuckling.

"Yes, maybe they really have immortal bones, and they can raise the humble peak in the future, Master Li, you can try how they are."

This is also a manifestation of the decline of the humble peak, if it is the other prosperous main peak, they will never dare to intervene like this, even if they want to climb the mountain, they must pass the report. However, it also shows from the side that the old man has a good temper.

"Okay." Li Ruoyu nodded, he was old, staggered, and walked out of the dilapidated palace of the fortune place.

At the top of the humble peak, there is rubble everywhere, and there is not a single intact building. In the middle, there is an open field, where there are nine steps paved with jade, although the years have passed, time flies, but the jade is still crystal clear, not damaged, it looks soft.

"It turned out to be a ninth-order heavenly beech test." A female disciple was a little surprised.

Li Ruoyu, as the only disciple and elder of Humble Peak, sighed with emotion and said: "Five hundred years ago, the disciples of Fan Taixuanmen wanted to step up to the ninth-order heavenly rod and become a disciple of Humble Peak. ”

"There are really nine heavenly ladders, I have heard of it before, and I never thought of it on the humble peak."

"Now, the Nine Ladders are almost submerged in dust, this place is deserted, there is no longer the glory of the past, who else wants to climb the Nine Ladders."

"This place is not what it used to be, and it has long since declined."

The seven or eight young disciples whispered, very disapproving, and their words were full of contempt.

"Back then, how many amazing and brilliant characters climbed the ladder of heaven and were proud ......of it," Li Ruoyu sighed.

"Uncle Li, you can't always remember the past." Several of the young disciples chuckled out loud, very disapproving.

"The so-called test is to ascend the Nine Stone Steps?" Ji Ziyue was very curious and felt that there was nothing special about such a test.

"Yes, you can give it a try." Li Ruoyu nodded.

"Humble Peak's future genius, see if you can pass the test."

"You must stand firm, don't fail to step through the first step."

Several young Taixuan disciples chuckled, thinking that Ji Ziyue and the three of them were just playing tricks, and didn't believe that they could pass the test.

In the face of teasing, Ji Ziyue didn't care, her steps were light, like a fluttering butterfly, walking towards the nine-step ladder.

The so-called nine-step ladder is made up of nine kinds of ancient jade, with different colors, no bright divine light, only a little bit of crystalline.

Ji Ziyue ascended the first jade step, the green ancient jade brilliance flickered, rippling out, and she looked very relaxed. Taking another step, the second jade step suddenly blushed, and the red glow was a little bit, she felt the pressure, and her eyebrows frowned slightly. When the third step fell, the blue ancient jade was sprinkled with clear light, crystal clear, and she felt that her steps were heavy.

Step 4 and Step 5...... By the seventh step, she felt that it was difficult to take a step, and it was as heavy as a mountain.

She didn't know that Li Ruoyu had already shown surprise when she ascended the third ladder, and by the time she reached the seventh step, she was already dumbfounded.

"Bang"

Ji Ziyue's eighth step fell, the ancient jade sprinkled barnyard grass, and the purple jade ladder was trampled under her feet, she felt like she was carrying the blue sky, and she was overwhelmed.

"Pi"

The ninth step fell, and she stepped on the last step, and suddenly there was a burst of fairy music, five-colored light and heaven, and colorful gods appeared.

She successfully ascended the nine-step ladder, and the clumsy peaks were different.

"This ......" Li Ruoyu's face was full of shock, his body was trembling slightly, he almost couldn't believe all this, and said to himself: "In the past, I heard that people who can ascend to the seventh order can already be called immortal geniuses, and the humble peak has been passed down to this day, and I don't know if anyone has ever ascended the ninth heavenly step.

Next to them, the young disciples all had disbelief on their faces, none of them expected that it would be such a result, the declining Humble Peak really ushered in a peerless genius.

Ji Ziyue instantly understood the situation, and immediately regretted it, she thought that she would have to step on every ladder, but she never thought that there would be no need for this at all. She stuck out her tongue secretly, and said to herself with a sad face: "It's over, I don't want to come here to be in the limelight, what can I do now?" ”

"This can't be, is she better than the qualifications of the previous sage?"

"Over the years, most of the Nine Heavenly Ladders have been damaged, otherwise how could they all be passed."

Facing Ji Ziyue, who had ascended to the ninth order, several young disciples felt incredulous.

At this moment, a green rainbow flew from the main peak in front of him, and a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties landed down, arched his hand at Li Ruoyu, and said, "I've seen Senior Brother Li." ”

"Meet my uncle." Beside them, the young disciples saluted the middle-aged man.

"I just saw that the clumsy peak seemed to have a strange flash, and I came to take a look, I don't know what happened?" Uncle Shi just ......"

Several young disciples quickly told Fang Cai about it.

"What?!" The middle-aged man was also shocked.

The figure flickered, and seven or eight more figures descended, all white, also from the main peak in front - Star Peak.

After these people understood the situation, they all showed shocked faces, and then invited Li Ruoyu to the side, looking unspeakable.

Don't talk about Li Ruoyu, even those young disciples next to him also guessed their thoughts, and they must have been shocked by Ji Ziyue's qualifications and wanted to accept her as a disciple of "Star Peak".

"I see what you mean." Li Ruoyu sighed and said, "Now that the clumsy peak has declined, it is really a mistake for her to practice to let such a good talent and beauty stay here, as long as she is willing, you can take her away." ”

Several old men all thanked Li Ruoyu for giving up their hands, and robbing people of disciples like this made them a little embarrassed.

Next, although Ji Ziyue was reluctant to go to Xingfeng, but after being lured by several old men and promising that if the Humble Peak inheritance was opened, she could join Humble Peak at any time, Ji Ziyue joined Xingfeng with some reluctance, which made several old men smile.

When Jiang Youda and Ye Fan tested, their tacit performance was very inconspicuous, and they did not attract the attention of several old men, and stayed in Humble Peak.

In the end, Xingfeng and his party left with the rainbow and disappeared, and Humble Peak was deserted, leaving only Jiang Youda, Ye Fan and Li Ruoyu.

When night fell, the starlight in the distance was like water, sprinkling down, and the star peak in front looked very ethereal, shrouded in endless light.

Jiang Youda looked into the distance and felt a little surprised, Xingfeng actually hooked the stars in the sky, and the endless starlight condensed, where the waist was hazy, and the brilliance was like water, like a fairyland.

Li Ruoyu stood at the top of the humble peak and said: "That is the inheritance of the star peak, with the stars in the sky as the source force, cultivating to the extreme realm, and even communicating with the stars, allowing the stars to penetrate into the body, achieving the supreme immortal body, and the combat power is unparalleled." ”

"I believe that Humble Peak is not weaker than Xingfeng, and it will flourish again." Ye Fan was indeed very interested in the power of the stars, but he valued the secret technique of Humble Peak more.

"Five hundred years ago, the clumsy peak fairy mist was filled, the color was swirling, Qionglou Yuyu was located on the clouds, and there were many masters, which can be described as outstanding people, but unfortunately, it gradually declined......"

"How do you bring the legacy back to life? The Heavenly Ladder ...... "Ye Fan suspects that there may be a secret art inheritance in the ninth-order Heavenly Ladder.

Li Ruoyu shook his head and said: "The entire main peak is the scriptures, and the inheritance is not in the nine-step ladder. ”

"Does it have to be that way?" Ye Fan didn't believe it much.

"In the past 10,000 years, there has only been one accident, a former sage once obtained the cultivation method of the secret art when the inheritance was not present, and finally achieved the power comparable to the ancients, and the mana was world-famous." Li Ruoyu sighed.

"How did he get it?" Ye Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.

"No one knows. On his deathbed, he only said twelve words. ”

"Which twelve words?"

"If there is a lack of great success, if there is a big profit, if there is a big coincidence, if ...... clumsy"
