Chapter 3: Phantom Cloud Real People
"I've never seen the bloodline true disk emit such a pure light, which means that your bloodline is very pure. Elder Li patted Chen Zong's shoulder with a smile, and the joy in his heart was directly reflected on his face, which made Chen Zong's heart feel terrified, but fortunately, Elder Li did not investigate why the bloodline was very pure.
Because Chen Zong estimated that the reason why the light emitted by the bloodline true disk was so pure was closely related to his cultivation into the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood.
This is a secret, at least now the strength is insufficient, Chen Zong does not want to be known by anyone other than himself.
"Elder, if there is a demon beast bloodline mixed in, what kind of light will the bloodline really disk emit?" Chen Zong asked curiously.
"The light emitted by the human bloodline is milky white, and the light is upright, and the blood of the demon beast is black and red, dark and cold. Elder Li was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Go, follow me to see all the palace masters, Elder Ben can clearly tell you that you are going to have a great opportunity." ”
That tone made Chen Zong's heart beat faster.
The purpose of the bloodline test is to verify whether Chen Zong is a pure human race or a member of the Black Demon Sect, and the purpose is to focus on cultivating Chen Zong.
Now that you have passed the test, how will you cultivate yourself?
There is no free meal in the world, the truth Chen Zong understands, but some must be grasped when they appear, and some prices should be paid afterwards, and it is also natural, of course, the price paid must be within the scope of their own bearing, and they cannot violate their own principles.
Moreover, Chen Zong was also very curious about what the palace master of the True Sword Academy Palace was like.
In my heart, I can't help but feel a little apprehensive.
"Our True Sword Academy Palace has seven palace opening ancestors, and it has been passed down from generation to generation, and there are seven palace masters. Elder Li said as he left the ancestral hall with Chen Zong and walked to the other side, his attitude seemed to be much better than just now: "Because of the accident of this hunt in the Western Wilderness, four palace masters went out to inquire about the stronghold of the Black Demon Gate, and two palace masters retreated and cultivated, and there was only one palace master you could see. ”
"Dare to ask Elder, which palace master am I going to see?" Chen Zong asked.
The titles of the seven palace masters of each generation are different.
"This is the new palace master, Phantom Cloud Zhenren. Elder Li said with a smile.
"Phantom Cloud is a real person. Chen Zong felt that the word Phantom Cloud was very familiar: "Dare to ask the elder, is the Phantom Cloud real person and the Phantom Cloud Swordsman predecessor the same person?"
Generally speaking, the name of the strong will not be repeated, otherwise it will lead to conflict, and someone must give in, otherwise it will be life and death.
"Before the breakthrough, it was the Phantom Cloud Swordsman, and after the breakthrough, it was the Phantom Cloud Real Man. Elder Li smiled and said, "It is precisely because of the breakthrough cultivation that I am qualified to become one of the new palace masters. ”
In his heart, he was a little less apprehensive, after all, he had seen the Phantom Cloud Swordsman before, and he had been guided by the other party, this kindness, Chen Zongke still kept it firmly in his heart, but now, he still has no ability to repay.
The True Sword Academy Palace is very large, and the place where the seven palace masters live, is located in the innermost depths.
Each palace master's residence was different, and under the leadership of Elder Li, Chen Zong came to a small courtyard that looked plain.
Blue sky and white clouds, the small courtyard is quiet and quiet, with indescribable elegance and quietness.
Above the closed gate, a black plaque reads three white words: Phantom Cloud Residence.
Chen Zong stared at those three words, and could feel the lightness and elegance contained in them, which was a kind of flowing nature, as if the white clouds were fluttering and changing, and in the depths, there was a trace of sharpness and sharpness.
"Phantom Cloud Zhenren, Elder Li Zhengyi asks to see. Elder Li stood outside the door, his voice neither high nor low, and his expression serious.
"Please come in. The gentle voice came from the small courtyard, the wind was light and light, giving Chen Zong a familiar feeling, and the door of the small courtyard naturally opened gently inside.
The moment the door of the small courtyard opened, Chen Zong seemed to smell a very unique breath, and the whole person's body and mind also relaxed, but it did not appear loose.
Following behind Elder Li, Chen Zong took a deep breath and took a step, strode up the steps, and walked into the small courtyard.
Stepping in, Chen Zong felt as if he had stepped into another world.
Obviously it is just a small courtyard, but it seems to be infinitely extended, with blue sky and white clouds, the sky is high and the heart is wide, infinitely high, as if it has become a small world of its own.
But after Chen Zong's spiritual will was tempered by the seven statues of the Patriarch of the Ancestral Hall, he further improved and became stronger, and he soon woke up from this illusion, and directly in front of him, a middle-aged man in a cloud-white robe was sitting in a comfortable posture.
He held the sword in his right hand, horizontally in front of him, the sword body had cloud wisps, as if flowing, and his left hand held a fine soft white cloth on the sword body, wiped it carefully, and his gentle movements were gentle and focused eyes, as if he was treating his beloved, and his body was filled with a natural and peaceful taste, as if he had no quarrel with the world.
Elder Li didn't speak, and Chen Zong also stood quietly, his eyes moved away from the white-robed middle-aged man, and he looked around carefully, looking at it, Chen Zong's face was full of surprise, and there was a look of sudden realization in his eyes.
The layout around this small courtyard seems to be very simple, but in fact there is another mystery, the focus is on its placement, there is a sense of naturalness, as if it can fit nature.
It is precisely because of this that when I just stepped into this small courtyard, I gave birth to the illusion of being in a small world.
"I wonder who set it up?"
"Could it be that you are the predecessor of Phantom Cloud?"
While thinking, Chen Zong's gaze returned to the sword in the right hand of the Phantom Cloud True Man, which was the Liuyun Sword, one of the world's famous swords.
After carefully wiping it again, Phantom Cloud Zhenren gently put down the fine soft white cloth in his hand, and then wiped the Liuyun Sword in his hand into the sheath.
"Little brother, we meet again. "Phantom Cloud Zhenren's appearance is very ordinary, but his temperament is very unique, like the clouds of the Tianshan Mountains are changing, his eyes are clear, as if he can reflect the blue sky and white clouds, and his breath is high and wide, compared with the previous time in the Qiyao Martial Academy, it seems even more unfathomable.
"Disciple Chen Zong has seen the palace master. Chen Zong saluted: "Thank you for the guidance of the palace master that day." ”
"I'm just mentioning a few words, it's your ability to comprehend. Phantom Cloud Zhenren smiled slightly, as if the white clouds in the sky were rolling: "I just didn't expect that in such a short period of time, you can comprehend the three-in-one heart, eye and hand in one, step into the realm of martial arts, and even become a disciple of the True Sword Academy in such a short period of time." ”
"If it weren't for the guidance of the palace master that day, I wouldn't have been able to comprehend it earlier and step into the realm of martial arts. Chen Zong said that this is also true.
No matter how smart a person is, he must know how to go and have a way forward, otherwise he will only be confused and wandering, just like a chef with good cooking skills, he can make delicious dishes that everyone in the world will have endless aftertaste, but if there is a lack of ingredients and corresponding kitchen utensils, nothing can be done, and his skills are in vain.
The guidance of the Phantom Cloud Swordsman that day, although it was only a few words, was equivalent to opening a door for Chen Zong and pointing to a path, which invisibly saved Chen Zong a lot of time.
"You and I have met three times before and after, it is fate, and you have the talent to practice swords. Phantom Cloud Zhenren restrained the smile on his face and looked serious: "I originally wanted to accept you as a disciple and teach you carefully, but your talent is very high, and I am not qualified to be your master, but I still have to ask you, are you willing to practice sword with me?"
Elder Li, who was standing on the side, trembled involuntarily, his face full of surprise.
Phantom Cloud Zhenren only broke through to the Seventh True Martial Realm the year before last, and then became the seventh palace master of the True Sword Academy, in terms of age, he is the lightest among the seven palace masters, and in terms of cultivation, he is also the weakest, but in terms of strength, he is not the weakest, but ranks fourth.
The number one is the Nine Layers of the True Martial Realm, a Venerable Master, the strength is undoubted, you must know that the difference in strength between each level of the True Martial Realm is very obvious.
The second and third ranked are all True Martial Realm eightfold cultivators.
And the fifth, sixth, and seventh are all True Martial Realm Sevenfold, but their cultivation has reached the late stage of True Martial Realm Sevenfold and even the peak.
The cultivation of the Phantom Cloud True Person is only in the early stage of the Seventh True Martial Realm, but its strength can be ranked fourth, which shows that it is outstanding.
If he wants to accept apprentices, as soon as the news is released, I don't know how many people will break their heads to compete for opportunities, but now, Phantom Cloud Zhenren said that he is not qualified to become Chen Zong's master, how much does this depend on Chen Zong's talent.
The words of the real person of Phantom Cloud also shocked Chen Zong.
All along, Chen Zong has been cultivating by himself, and he knows very well the difficulties involved, and if he has the guidance of the Master, it will naturally be very good.
is also as the real person of Phantom Cloud said, when they meet three times before and after, and they have received their guidance, it is fate.
"I would like to worship my predecessors as teachers. As soon as the thought turned, Chen Zong took three steps forward, and was about to bow to the teacher in front of the Phantom Cloud Zhenren, and the Phantom Cloud Zhenren stretched out his hand in the air, so that Chen Zong could not kneel.
"Chen Zong, I am very satisfied that you have this intention, but I have already said that I can't be your master. Phantom Cloud Zhenren smiled, his tone was unquestionable: "If you are willing, you can practice the sword with me, I will teach you how much you can learn, it is your ability." ”
"Thank you, seniors. Since Phantom Cloud Zhenren said so, Chen Zong did not insist on apprenticeship anymore, but he kept this kindness in his heart.
"Chen Zong, you have to practice swords with the palace master. Elder Li admonished, and immediately looked at the real person of Phantom Cloud: "Palace Master, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." ”
Originally, Elder Li's purpose in bringing Chen Zong over was to let the Phantom Cloud True Man take a look, and then accept the Guidance of the Phantom Cloud True Man, but the current result was obviously much better than originally expected.
The difference between this and the personal disciple is just a name.
"Chen Zong, you go back and clean up, and after that, you will stay with me for the time being. Phantom Cloud said.
"Yes. "Chen Zong is also happy, feeling that living here, his soul is thorough, his mind is refreshed, and his distracting thoughts are not generated, which is more conducive to cultivation.
If the other disciples of the True Sword Academy knew that Chen Zong would be able to live in the Phantom Cloud Residence and accept the guidance of the Phantom Cloud True Person at all times, I don't know what kind of jealousy he would become.
You must know that even if it is the Seven Swordsmen, they are only qualified to accept the guidance of the Seven Palace Masters, but they cannot live in a place like the Phantom Cloud Residence, let alone accept the guidance at all times.
Soon, Chen Zong brought a change of clothes and other necessary items, and came to the Phantom Cloud Residence again, although the Phantom Cloud Residence looked very simple, but there were many houses, and a few people lived in it, it also seemed spacious.
