Volume 1 Catechumens Chapter 14 Acceptance

In the martial arts hall, more than 100 people stood there neatly, silent.

The reason why it is so quiet is because today is the day of the assessment, and on the other hand, because of the person who presided over the assessment.

The immortal standing in front of everyone to preside over the assessment had a very peculiar appearance, he was wearing an animal skin coat and a furry hat. There was a small beast's head in front of the hat and a large tail behind the hat - if you look closely, it was made of the fur of a large squirrel.

It is now the end of April, and the climate in Da Viet is already very hot, and it is impossible to wear slightly thicker clothes. But he was wearing a thick animal skin, but he couldn't see the slightest bit of stuffiness, which showed that his cultivation was indeed profound, and he was not invaded by cold and heat.

If it's just like this, what really deters everyone and makes them dare not speak rashly is the words and deeds of this immortal.

"My name is Dagon, and I'm the chief examiner of this one." His voice was thin and high-pitched, sounding like a squeaking illusion, "To tell you the truth, I'm not a human, but a monster." ”

His words startled many people, but many remained calm – clay, for example.

"Many of you have seen me, and these days, I have been patrolling outside, responsible for destroying all the demon beasts that have invaded the vicinity of Qingniu Townβ€”I'm sure many of you have seen how I 'eliminate' them."

He grinned, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.

"To be honest, I hate dealing with the Terrans, because the Terrans are too troublesome, and they can't just eat like monsters. However, this time, the head approved me to preside over the assessment, and gave me a privilege......"

He looked at the crowd with bad intentions, and the two small eyes under the squirrel skin hat glowed a faint green light, making people fidget.

"The boss said that if anyone dares to make trouble, I can take a bite-"

As he spoke, his mouth grew violently, and in an instant it became like a doorway, enough for an adult to walk in directly.

"-Eat him!"

Along with the fishy wind and terrible words came an indescribable eerie aura, and at least twenty or thirty immortal seekers sat on the ground in fright, while almost all of them screamed.

Wu Xie was one of the very few people who didn't scream because he was chatting with Jasmine.

Before the Great Gon Immortal Master could put on a terrifying face, Jasmine was already shouting excitedly, "What a big squirrel! If you skin it, you should be able to make a high-grade spirit rune! ”

"You can also make spirit runes?" Wu Xie asked curiously, "Didn't you say last time that you would only have some simple spells?" ”

Jasmine's smile suddenly fell, and even the ears on the top of her head drooped a little: "Yes...... I forgot that I don't know how to make talismans...... Alas! It's a pity that the brothers who are good at talisman making are gone, otherwise ......"

"I think with the character of those senior brothers, once we recognize each other, we will definitely die before this squirrel, or we will be reduced to the point where we can't die."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That seems to be the case......"

Because of the distraction from chatting, Wu Xie felt far less terrifying pressure than others, so he seemed calm and calm. In a group of frightened people, it seems particularly abrupt.

Dagon's gaze swept over everyone, stayed on Wu Xie for a moment, nodded secretly, and then changed back to the appearance of an ordinary person, announcing the assessment method with a big grin.

"You've been studying this naivety for ten days. Have you learned something, know for yourself. Now, I feel like I've learned something, and I'm standing still; If you feel that you have nothing to learn, you can retreat to the back by yourself - don't try to play tricks in front of me! ”

He smiled coldly, and his gloomy gaze swept over everyone, as if studying who was more delicious and who was not so delicious, and people trembled from the bottom of their hearts.

Under this terrifying gaze, many immortal seekers retreated and chose to give up.

In less than half a minute, at least a third of the more than a hundred immortal seekers retreated to the back, and some of the remaining people had their eyes flickering, although they were not able to learn anything, they still had the idea of luck, and wanted to get by.

After a few more moments, making sure that no one had stepped back, Dagon smiled, his smile full of hideousness.

"Excellent! Very good! This is a snack to eat! ”

His gaze suddenly became extremely terrifying and ferocious, and in an instant, every immortal seeker who stayed in place felt as if he was about to rush towards him and swallow himself in one bite!

"Help!"

"Don't eat me!"

"Immortal Master spare his life!"

"I'm quitting!"

……

The chaotic screams and begs for mercy were connected, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while.

But Dagon didn't pounce.

Including Wu Jie, almost ten masters had a powerful momentum on their bodies, and they actually withstood his arrogance in an instant.

But they only lasted for a moment.

In the next moment, Wu Xie couldn't stand it anymore, and one of them planted out of his head, and turned into a rolling gourd with other masters who sensed the killing intent and exploded.

They were skilled in martial arts, and they only rolled on the ground to regain their footing, but with this rolling kung fu, at least a dozen or so immortal seekers were thrown far behind by the sudden wind, and they fell to pieces.

"There is no shame in learning nothing, you can't succeed yourself, and you have future generations. Dreams are meant to be pursued for many generations. But if you want to get by, you can't do it! ”

I don't know when, Zhang Long has already appeared in the martial arts hall, looking at everyone seriously.

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and both those who retreated voluntarily and those who were left behind by the wind disappeared without a trace.

A moment later, a group of people with blank expressions appeared in an inconspicuous place in Wu'an County. Their memories are a little vague, and they only remember the deep regret, and only the square bamboo sign in their hands can bring them a trace of comfort.

At the same time, there are also some people who appear in the place that used to be Qingniu Town, which is deserted, with no trace of houses in sight, only a long loess road leading to Wu'an County in the distance.

There was still a little horror on their faces, but more despair. More than one person frantically searched for it, but found nothing, and cried at the end.

All this, Wu Xie and the others can see clearly through the projection created by Zhang Long's spell.

"On the road to immortality, the first priority is 'sincerity'!" Zhang Long said solemnly, "I don't care what kind of thoughts you have, and I don't care about your origin and origin, but I ask you to treat your own path of seeking immortals with sincerity - this is our respect and responsibility for yourself!" ”

"Why do you want to learn the 'Theory of Innocence'? Have you thought about this? His gaze swept over everyone and said slowly, "The immortal road is rugged and bumpy, full of thorns, and the steps are difficult. If you can't see your heart clearly and keep a sincere heart, sooner or later you will go astray. When the time comes......" He paused, and there was a little more shadow in his voice, "I'm afraid I'm going to really trouble Dagon......

Including Wu Jie, everyone couldn't help but shudder.

This small episode didn't delay a lot of time, but the original team of more than 100 immortal seekers suddenly decreased by nearly half.

The next few days were nothing special, and if I had to find something to talk about, it would be that the ten masters who took the initiative to resist Dagon's momentum had been universally respected by the immortal seekers.

People respect the strong, especially when they are willing to stand up for everyone.

Some people may say that this is a foolish act, but the reason why the strong are respected is precisely because they not only have a strong strength, but also bear the responsibility that matches this strength.

Otherwise, they would be nothing more than beasts in human form, and they would only gain fear from people.

On the first day of the fifth lunar month, everyone got up early in the morning, and when the sky was just dawning, everyone had already gathered in the lecture hall.

According to the notice I received yesterday, the content of the next assessment will be announced today.

The immortals didn't let everyone wait for a long time, and as soon as the sun came out, Mr. Zhou came to the lecture hall.

The immortal, who plays the down-and-out grocery store owner, still retains the attire of the time, dressed in shabby and pedantic face. He was not good at words, and he didn't give any speeches, but he just told everyone the topics of the assessment dryly.

"There is a hill in the east of Qingniu Town, called Niutou Mountain. The highest peak on the mountain is called Oxhorn Peak. As long as you can reach the top of the Ox Horn Peak before the fifth day of the fifth month of May, you will be considered to have passed. ”

"It's that simple?" A balding hunk couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, that's it." Zhou Zhou didn't have the majesty of an immortal at all, just like an ordinary small businessman, he nodded and replied.

"And when can we go?" Luo Yu asked.

"You can do it nowβ€”but I suggest you don't rush." Zhou Zhou said, "Both Niutou Mountain and Niujiao Peak are easy to find, the peak is not steep, and the mountain road leads to the top of the cliff." This is the most difficult test, not about climbing mountains, but about other things. ”

"Can you tell me what exactly is being tested?" A little girl with a sweet smile asked crisply.

Zhou Zhou shook his head: "I can't say that you have gone to the Natural Knowing Dao - but remember, your intentions must be sincere, especially to face your true heart." ”

"The road to seeking immortals, only true and sincere, remember! Remember! ”

After saying that, his whole person turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared without a trace.

Wu Xie and the others, you look at me, I look at you, after a little discussion, I still decided to set off now.

Although the immortals told them not to worry, how could they not be in a hurry now?

Along the way, the fairy fate is already close at hand, now let them wait?

"I swear from the bottom of my heart! I don't want to wait a quarter of an hour! Tao Tu looked at the mountain that looked like a cow's head in the east of Qingyang Town, stared at the peak shaped like a cow's horn, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

Wu Xie Ha Lu Ha smiled and patted the shoulder of this partner who had been seeking immortals with him until now: "Then what are you waiting for?" Let's go! ”

Dozens of immortal seekers hurried towards the Oxhorn Peak like travelers who had been thirsty in the desert for several days and suddenly saw a spring.
