Chapter 58: The Test Ends
All the way to the Xuandao Sect.
Zhang Fengduan sat on the flying sword and didn't feel any bumps.
As long as you don't look down, it's no different from sitting on flat ground.
Also on the way there.
Senior Brother Feng roughly talked about the content of the assessment.
It's very simple, just two.
One is to enter the illusion, and the other is to test talent.
As for what the first illusion will go through, this varies from person to person...
..
After more than a month of stop-and-go flight.
On the morning of the forty-second day.
Senior Brother Feng seemed to be stuck, and took Zhang Feng to the front of Xuandao Sect Mountain, and today was the first day to open the door to accept disciples.
But Zhang Feng didn't look at the test disciples who were waiting at the bottom of the mountain, but looked at it from a high altitude and saw that the Xuandao Sect in the distance was a continuous mountain range, with small rivers, mountains and forests, and dozens of raised peaks.
On the way, I heard Senior Brother Feng say that there are all the elders, or some sect powerhouses.
And now in front of the mountain outside the sect, there are many disciples who come to test like themselves.
They were all from various regions of the Wind Continent under the rule of the Xuandao Sect.
But there are also some disciples, when they learn that their qualifications are not good, they worship the nearest sect.
"There are about 5,000 people who have come to the test today." Senior Brother Feng was controlling the flying sword while looking at Zhang Feng and said, "Although the test is fast, it is estimated that it can be completed in two or three days." But there's something to do tomorrow for my brother, so.."
As he spoke, he drove the flying sword past the disciples who were waiting at the bottom of the mountain and came to a valley behind the mountain.
After walking another hundred meters, he arrived at a wide field, the flying sword fell, and Zhang Feng walked down from it.
Senior Brother Feng waved his hand and put away the flying sword before he said, "If you go any further, you won't be able to fly with the sword." ”
Senior Brother Feng identified a direction and walked towards the north, "I know Deacon Fang from the outer gate, he will give the two of us some convenience and test it earlier." ”
"Thank you, Senior Brother Feng." Zhang Feng heard that he could still cut the line, that is, the sooner he got on the right track, the better, and followed Senior Brother Feng directly.
When they came to the bottom of a mountain in the northwest corner of the valley.
There is a wide mountain entrance here, and in front of the mountain there is a deacon who is writing a list of test disciples with a brush.
Senior Brother Feng walked over, 'cough' twice, and when he looked over, he immediately smiled and said, "Deacon Fang, don't bother, right?" ”
"Senior Brother Feng!" When Deacon Fang saw Senior Brother Feng, he immediately smiled.
At the same time, when he wanted to ask something, he looked at Zhang Feng not far away, and suddenly understood.
"This junior brother... Is that what Senior Brother Feng said a few days ago, Senior Brother Zhang? ”
As a deacon of the outer gate, Deacon Fang managed the outer gate and dealt with all kinds of people.
It's linguistically fine.
He came up, no matter whether Zhang Feng passed or not, or what, he just said 'junior brother', which made the cordial feeling come up.
"Deacon Fang." Zhang Feng hugged his fists and saluted, and the other deacon was polite.
When Deacon Fang saw it, he also smiled and hugged his fists, but he didn't write Zhang Feng's name, but instead pointed to the entrance and said, "The first batch of disciples for testing has passed." Senior Brother Zhang, hurry up, I have already added Senior Brother Zhang's name to the first batch. ”
As he spoke, the brush fell on the paper and Zhang Feng's name was written.
"Let's get in quickly." Senior Brother Feng also smiled and pointed to the mountain road.
But before Zhang Feng left, another flying sword fell in the distance, and three people came down.
"Senior Brother Feng is also here, I was just about to talk to Deacon Fang about something.."
The first one was dressed in a black shirt, and he was followed by two young men.
Deacon Fang understood and added two more names.
Zhang Feng took a look and understood that the person who came here was also a relation.
Not much to say.
As soon as Zhang Feng and Senior Brother Feng said goodbye to Deacon Fang, and then greeted the new senior brother, they walked towards the mountain road.
Wait to get out of this mountain road tens of meters long.
Ahead, there was a low, wide meadow.
However, there are some brightly colored flowers planted on both sides of the meadow.
Nowadays, many test disciples are standing in the middle of the flowers and plants, as if they are meditating on the fragrance of grass and wild flowers, and they have not taken a step forward.
There were still a few disciples standing in front of the meadow, but there were inscriptions on the dirt road under their feet that connected to the meadow, separating the 'fragrance of flowers'.
When they saw Zhang Feng walking out of the mountain road, they pointed to the rocky passage opposite the meadow.
Zhang Feng looked towards the aisle of the mountain rocks, and saw that some disciples had just walked out of the meadow, and they were turning back to look at the flowers with some fear.
Listen to Senior Brother Feng.
These flowers have the effect of deceiving people's minds.
The first is the illusion, which tests the perseverance of the heart.
Zhang Feng didn't speak, and walked towards the wide grass, avoiding the test disciples in front of him.
But as he walked, he saw the two test disciples turn around and run away in some fear, and almost bumped into themselves.
After walking through this meadow, Zhang Feng turned around and looked at it, and saw that as long as he ran away and ran away from this place, he would be asked to leave by the disciples on duty and be out.
But I didn't see any illusions.
Maybe I did.
I did feel a little uncomfortable just now, and my mind was a little messy, but with a long breath, my thoughts were disrupted.
After spitting out a few more grains of pollen wrapped in spiritual energy in his lungs, there was nothing left.
Don't think about it and keep going.
When they came to the side of the mountain road, the guard on duty saw Zhang Feng coming in one breath, but there was no surprise, but on the contrary, he pointed to the dozen or so disciples who were queuing in the distance.
They also came in one go.
Also, the people who can come here are one in a hundred.
As long as you have a firm mind, you can basically get by.
"Name." When a disciple on duty saw Zhang Feng coming to line up, he asked Zhang Feng's name.
"Zhang Feng." Zhang Feng continued to line up.
The disciple nodded, first wrote down Zhang Feng's name, and after remembering the few people who came again, he put the letter in a small box, and said 'go' again, and the small box flew towards the mountain peak about three hundred meters away.
Zhang Feng looked at the mountain peak in the distance, where clouds and mist were surrounded, as if he had been shielded by someone, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
Leave him alone.
When Zhang Feng was queuing, he recalled the second test talent that Senior Brother Feng said.
He said that as long as those who passed the test would be taken to a practice ground somewhere within the sect and awaited assignment.
As for the test, it is tested with a 'spirit stone'.
Wait for the queue to get closer.
Zhang Feng looked at a small table in front of him, and saw that there were a total of five scales on this palm-sized spirit stone, and there was a sealed aura inside, which would climb to which scale according to the level of talent of the test person.
The disciples who came to test all put their hands on the spirit stone.
But most of them are the first scale, 'Lower Grade Spiritual Root'.
Generally, those who can be selected from the sea can basically get by.
It means to be able to 'practice qi'.
But if you can get by, if there are no accidents in the future, it is basically the life of the outer disciples, and it is difficult to build a foundation.
Unless it is a second scale, 'medium-grade spiritual root', there is a chance to 'build a foundation'.
A person with this qualification is basically an inner disciple.
But in the future, if the foundation is not built, you still have to go to the outer gate, or become an outer gate deacon.
Senior Brother Feng is such a spiritual root, and he successfully built a foundation and sat on the inner door.
Deacon Fang was screened out.
And the foundation building monk is also a master in this world.
Including in a top sect like Xuandao Sect, the foundation building monks with the talent of the middle grade spiritual root are also the pillars of the sect.
Just looking at Senior Brother Feng, a monk who had just entered the foundation building, was given a third-order item by the sect, he knew that the sect attached more importance to the foundation building monks.
In other words, whether a sect is strong or not depends on the number of foundation building monks.
The Xuandao Sect has 620 foundations.
Third, the top grade, basically there is no accident to build the foundation, and there is a chance to form a 'golden pill'.
This kind of qualification is basically rare, and there is no one in a million.
Even if it is as strong as the Xuandao Sect, only a few elders, as well as some core disciples, have such qualifications.
Fourth, the best.
The Sect Master of the Xuandao Sect is such a qualification.
He practiced martial arts at the age of eight, built a foundation at the age of thirty, formed a golden pill at the age of seventy, and then established the Xuandao Sect in the chaotic war of the hundred sects in Fengzhou, and suppressed a radius of 100,000 li.
In ancient times, the suzerain of his Xuandao Sect belonged to the founding emperor.
When Zhang Fengzheng was thinking, he also walked to the table.
An assessment disciple handed the test spirit stone to Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng's palm slowly rested on it, and he saw that the aura in the spirit stone gradually climbed, reaching the scale 'three' from the beginning!
"Superior Spiritual Root.." The assessment disciple's eyes narrowed, and he was shocked.
Because he is only one, the next grade.
"Three scales.." The disciples next to him also cast their eyes, all of them were envious, and there was also a strong sense of jealousy.
But more disciples are ready to find a way to get close to Zhang Fengtao.
But in the next moment, the aura scale was rising again, and when it gradually reached four, the disciples next to him were no longer envious and jealous, but obviously frightened!
You must know that they are in Fengzhou and hear the legend of the Xuandao Sect every day, but they know what the four represents!
'The sect master is also the best spiritual root.... He's too..'
'This.. It's the best spiritual root! ’
The disciples thought in their hearts, and they no longer knew what words to use to express their inner shock.
It's just that Zhang Feng found that the aura in the spirit stone had not stopped, but as if he was attracted to himself, he wanted to break through the spirit stone that bound it and drill into his body.
But it was also at this time that the scale continued to climb towards the 'five'.
'Wow', a burst of golden aura shattered the test spirit stone.
Zhang Feng's heart suddenly tightened, and his palm was suddenly withdrawn, and it was placed on the Tang knife on his waist.
The disciple in charge of the test was stunned for a moment, but then turned around and bowed into the distance.
"What's going on.." The disciples who were testing nearby also didn't know what was going on.
But at the same time, three hundred meters away, on a mountain peak surrounded by clouds and mist.
"Qualifications, perseverance, are the dragon and phoenix among people.."
A middle-aged man with a majestic appearance withdrew his flying sword, got up, and looked at the elders waiting for orders.
"Before Zhang Feng stepped into the foundation and had no power to protect himself. Those who have seen Zhang Feng's qualifications today will be sent to the back mountain together, and will be strictly guarded by law enforcement disciples. ”
"Sect Master.." There are elders who want to say something.
The sect master looked at him, "This sect has made this move, and Zhang has sealed this matter." There is no need to discuss it again, and it must not be mentioned again. ”
