Qinglian Gate is located on the Water Lotus Mountain 100 miles away from the county seat of Qinglian County in the northeast of Lelang Prefecture, about 80,000 miles away from Jiuhu City.

The Water Lotus Mountain Range, with a radius of more than 1,000 miles, looks down from the air, like a huge lotus flower, growing between countless criss-crossing rivers. And the water of the great river originates from the huge "petals" on the Water Lotus Mountains.

Looking from afar, the whole water lotus mountain is like a thunderstorm, the water lotus under the first rays of the sun, with delicate and bright dewdrops, magnificent and bright.

Riding the wind vulture, on the sixth day, Lin Le and Xia Wanxue came to the sky above the Water Lotus Mountain Range, and under the control of Xia Wanxue, the wind vulture flew straight towards a peak in the southeast of the mountain range.

There are no less than 100 large and small peaks in the Water Lotus Mountain Range, and the Qinglian Gate occupies the most important nine in the Water Lotus Mountain, plus the big rivers rushing down from the mountains, as if the Nine Heavens Milky Way fell to the ground, and the nine peaks and twelve streams of the Qinglian Gate are very famous in the whole Lelang State.

"Little junior brother, the mountain peak in front of us is Qinglian Peak, the main peak of our Qinglian Gate, and it is also the place where we will stay in the future, how about it, beautiful, right?" The summer evening snow raised the height of the wind vulture, and the two of them crawled from more than 3,000 meters in mid-air to more than 7,000 meters in an instant.

Lin Le stood on the wind vulture, only to see the towering mountains in front of him shrink in his eyes at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the sunlight shone out from the clouds and spread under his feet, as if the entire heaven, earth, mountains and rivers were crawling under him.

It will be the top of the mountain, and the mountains will be seen at a glance.

An inexplicable pleasure surged out of his chest, making him almost want to let out a long howl.

At this moment, under the bright and clean morning light, Lin Le only felt that the lead dust on his body had been completely washed away, and his body and mind were unprecedentedly light. At this moment, he seemed to be able to see the infinite Tao between heaven and earth with his eyes, breathing with his nose, tasting with his mouth, and listening with his ears.

Since the crossing, he first was anxious to protect himself in a strange world, and then he was unwilling to carry the hope of the family, and entered the Taoist Academy, he still didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief, the threat of the Sima family and Sima Tianchen made him use almost all the time to continue to force himself to be strong. Now, he won the championship at the Xianyuan Conference, defeated Sima Tianchen, returned to his hometown, and he finally completed the burden of the Lin family.

Without the shackles on his body, he followed Xia Wanxue all the way to fly on the vulture, Lin Le's heart gradually opened, and at this moment, following the vulture straight into the sky, the sky and the earth scaled in his eyes, and in the dark, Lin Le had another layer of understanding of the Tao.

After Xia Wanxue rode the wind vulture to climb to a height of nearly 10,000 meters, it actually only reached the mountainside of Qinglian Peak, and then fell on a huge mountain beam platform.

In front of the platform, there are simple and magnificent halls that are stacked with mountains and greens, hidden in the verdant mountains and forests.

As soon as the vulture fell, two young men in pale cyan robes had already greeted them.

"Uncle Xia!" the two men shouted very respectfully when they saw Xia Wanxue.

"Xiaowen, Xiaowu, this is my little junior brother, Lin Le, the disciple that the master just received, you are called Uncle Lin. Xia Wanxue seemed to be very familiar with the two, and introduced them cordially, "Little junior brother, the two of them are the apprentices of the third master, Sun Chengwen and Chengwu, you can call them Xiaowen and Xiaowu in the future." ”

"Chengwen and Chengwu have seen Uncle Lin. The two men looked at Lin Le, a look of surprise flashed in their eyes, and then said respectfully.

"The two teachers and nephews don't have to be polite. Lin Le hurriedly responded, with a can't help but surprise in his eyes, the faces of the two young men were around thirty, although Lin Le had already guessed that the status of the personal disciple of the head of the sect might be relatively high, but he still didn't expect to be called Uncle Shi as soon as he entered the door.

Under the leadership of Xia Wanxue, the two of them walked all the way to the main hall in the mountain, and behind the main hall group behind the platform, an almost straight and steep stone step paved a thousand zhang cliff, on the cliff, a more majestic and magnificent temple can be faintly seen.

Xia Wanxue introduced Lin Le as she walked: "Little junior brother, we have a total of three types of disciples in Qinglian Sect, outer disciples, inner disciples and personal disciples. Among them, the outer disciples are all Taoists below the four realms of Huaqi, and they usually cultivate at the bottom of the mountain, and they are not allowed to enter the inner hall at will without permission. The inner disciples are Taoist priests from the Four Realms of Huaqi to the Six Realms of Huaqi, and they follow their teachers to cultivate in various mountain peaks, and most of the people on Qinglian Peak are here. The personal disciples are the disciples of the major elders and heads of the sect, and most of their strength is similar to that of the inner disciples, but their age and talent are stronger than the inner disciples. If the strength of the disciples in the sect breaks through to the Seven Realms of Huaqi, they will be promoted to sect deacons. ”

"Senior Sister Xue, how many people are there in our Qinglian Sect now?" Lin Le asked curiously, he saw very few disciples along the way, and he couldn't help but guess in his heart whether the huge Qinglian Sect disciples should be similar to the Gu Xuan Dao Academy.

Xia Wanxue said: "The sect now has a total of more than 12,300 cultivators, and more than 30,000 miscellaneous servants, but more than 40,000 people are scattered on the nine peaks, so except for days such as trade fairs or sect conferences, there are very few people who can usually see them. ”

Lin Le nodded, there are more than 10,000 cultivators, which is already dozens of times stronger than the Gu Xuan Dao Academy, but after thinking about it, the cultivators of the Qinglian Sect plus the cultivators of the entire Qinglian County Dao Academy are only more than 20,000 people, and for the hundreds of millions of people in Qinglian County, the proportion has not even reached one in 10,000.

Walking through the tree-lined path between the halls, from time to time, disciples of the Taoist realm stepped forward to salute Xia Wanxue, and at the same time looked at him with curiosity, listening to the whispered discussions of the disciples, it seemed that he had joined the Qinglian Sect and worshiped under the Qinglian Fairy Sect The matter had already spread among the sects.

"Isn't it just a kid who defeated the waste of the two Qi Three Realms, and what qualifications do you have to become a disciple of the head of the sect?"

"That is, we have already reached the three realms of Huaqi at his age, if you want to talk about talent, Senior Brother Ling Feng reached the four realms of Huaqi at the age of eighteen, and reached the five realms of Huaqi at the age of twenty-three, and now it is less than thirty is already the peak of the five realms, and he can break through to the sixth realm at any time, this is a real genius!"

"I really don't know why the sect attaches so much importance to the wild boys picked up by these Daoists, we are the elites who have joined the Daomen since childhood!"

"Don't talk about it, hey, Senior Brother Ling Feng is here, there will be a good show to watch now. ”

Lin Le and Xia Wanxue came to the last hall in the forest, and were about to bypass the hall to the Qianzhang stone steps, when several young men and women suddenly walked out of the hall.

Lin Le was slightly surprised, this guy was only a little bit handsome than himself.

"Senior Sister Xia. The man at the head saw the two of them, with his chin held high, taking square steps, and walked over like a big rooster who had always been proud, his eyes swept indifferently on Lin Le, and said in a strange manner: "This must be the dark horse genius Lin Le junior brother at the Baibo County Immortal Yuan Conference, right? ”

"What Senior Brother Ling Feng said is yes, our disciples have been practicing hard in the sect for so many years since they were children, and they are full of Dao Fa, but they can't contribute to the sect, they are really ashamed to say, and they are overwhelmed with shame. Beside Ling Feng, another tall and thin young Taoist priest echoed in the same yin and yang spirit.

"Senior Brother Lu Feng, how can we compare with Senior Brother Lin Le? Senior Brother Lin Le won the championship at the Immortal Yuan Conference as a dark horse, and he didn't bother to join the Immortal Sect, but chose our Qinglian Sect, we should be grateful. Another short-fat man said.

"Shut up! Senior Brother Ling Feng, Senior Brother Lu Feng, Senior Brother Wang Han, as senior brothers, you are all personal disciples of the sect elders, you should lead by example, how can you be so rude?" Seeing the yin and yang strange demeanor of the three of them, Xia Wanxue said angrily.

Ling Feng smiled and said, "Senior Sister Xia, you have wronged us greatly, the three of us are all praising Senior Brother Lin, why are you rude?" As he spoke, Ling Feng's expression suddenly changed, and he said with contempt and mockery, "Could it be that Senior Brother Lin doesn't match what we said, he is simply a waste, so Senior Sister Xia thinks we are talking too much?"

"You" Xia Wanxue was angry, Ling Feng and the others have always liked to go against her, when it comes to quarrels, she is not an opponent at all, "Senior Brother Lin, don't be angry, these guys have always been like this, they must be jealous of you, let's go, ignore them." ”

Lin Le glanced at Ling Feng and the others, and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Xue, how can I be angry? I think that several senior brothers are very honest and dare to admit their shortcomings, which is very admirable. Of course, as a cultivator, faith is also very important, and as the head disciples, we should help a few more senior brothers, so that they can build up confidence, persist in cultivating, and not feel sorry for themselves like this. ”

When it comes to cold words and sarcasm, when Lin Le was wandering on the earth, he didn't have much experience, Ling Feng and the others wanted to give him a dismount as soon as they came, although Lin Le didn't know the motives of Ling Feng and the others, how could he easily comply?

Xia Wanxue Bingxue is smart, how can she not hear Lin Le's sarcasm, she followed Lin Le's words, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "What the little junior brother said is right, as the head disciples, we should learn to be tolerant." Senior Brother Ling Feng, several junior brothers, in fact, your strength is not bad, as long as you work hard, he will definitely have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to the sect one day, I believe in you. ”

Looking at Lin Le and Xia Wanxue, one smiled harmlessly, and the other swore an oath, as if it was really for them, Ling Feng and the others almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.

As a personal disciple who has joined the Qinglian Sect since childhood, they don't have any good feelings for outsiders like Lin Le who joined halfway, so they sneered as soon as they came, wanting to give Lin Le a dismissal, but they didn't expect that the words of a few people were all silently refuted by Lin Le.

What a brilliant-toothed boy! Ling Feng's faces changed red and white for a while, and the gaze that looked at Lin Le became fierce.
