Chapter Eighty-Four: The Divine Beast Eyes
"Brother Fang is right."
At this time, Luo Jingtian also came over and said:
"In the True Yuan Immortal Sect, there are three forces, the True Yuan Immortal King, the Hall of Elders headed by the Great Elder, and the Hualian Palace. As far as I know, the Hualian Hall has always been high and does not participate in the power struggle within the Immortal Gate, so excluding them, they can only be the Great Elders. β
"Hualian Palace?"
Fang Xuanzong frowned, this was the first time he had heard of this force.
"Hualian Hall is a force independent of the True Yuan Immortal Gate, it is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the Hualian Hall was originally a big immortal gate of the Immortal Gate, and it was friendly with the True Yuan Immortal Gate, but then it declined for some reason and could not be supported, so it was merged into the True Yuan Immortal Gate in order to seek shelter."
Luo Jingtian explained:
"Although the Hualian Hall is also part of the True Yuan Immortal Gate, in the past 10,000 years, the two sides have been clearly distinguished, and there is little intervention, which is said to be the admonition left by the first True Yuan Immortal King. Except for the critical moment of the Immortal Gate, at other times, the Hualian Hall hardly appeared. β
"I see."
Fang Xuanzong suddenly realized.
The 100,000 immortal gates in the immortal realm will kill each other every once in a while, and the chaos is incomparable, and countless immortal gates will decay and fall in the conquest, which was the case with the original Tianxingmen.
And in order to avoid the pursuit of the enemy and survive, some of the declining immortal sects will choose to merge into other stronger immortal sects and make a blood oath to seek protection, which is a very common thing in the immortal world.
"Hehe, Shen Stick, that Taoist companion of yours is from Hualian Palace, right?"
At this time, Xianhe looked at Luo Jingtian and said with a wicked smile:
"Moreover, looking at your thin and weak appearance, I think you are going to find your Taoist double cultivation again."
"That's right."
Luo Jingtian's face turned slightly red, but he quickly recovered and generously admitted:
"Qinglian is the elder of Hualian Palace, and I also know these things from her."
The crane who wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule it, saw Luo Jingtian admit it so readily, and suddenly lost interest in ridiculing.
"Tsk, we are all still working hard to enter the inner door, you have found the elder to be a Taoist couple, you kid is really deep!"
The crane couldn't help but sourly.
Fang Xuanzong was also a little surprised, as early as when he joined the True Yuan Immortal Sect, he already knew that Luo Jingtian had a Taoist companion, but he didn't expect his Taoist status to be so high.
Moreover, the True Yuan Immortal Sect was strictly hierarchical, and Luo Jingtian was just a small immortal at the beginning, how did he become a Taoist companion with a high-ranking elder?
Just as Fang Xuanzong was secretly thinking, in the sky above, the indifferent voice of the white-bearded elder sounded:
"The first level of assessment is over!"
Fang Xuanzong came back to his senses, only then did he notice that the hurricane on the field had all dissipated, and in the huge central square, from the original thousands, there were less than a hundred people left.
In the first level alone, more than ninety percent of the disciples were eliminated.
"It's cruel."
Fang Xuanzong said secretly.
"Congratulations on passing the first level of assessment, and then you are eligible to enter the Divine Light Secret Realm and conduct the second level of assessment."
Elder Whitebeard's voice rang out again.
As soon as the words fell, he waved the dust in his hand, and another hurricane flew out, directly rolling up the remaining disciples in the central square and flying towards the distance.
As for the disciples who were eliminated next to the square, he didn't even look at them.
Just after Elder Whitebeard left with Fang Xuanzong and the other promoted disciples, outside the square, in the corner where Fang Xuanzong's eyes had been focused before, on the originally empty white wall, a figure slowly walked down.
"The strength of this son has reached the high level of the Immortal Spirit Realm, so I have to inform the master quickly."
The man took a deep look at the direction Fang Xuanzong had left, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly disappeared.
β¦β¦
On the other side, Fang Xuanzong and the others, under the leadership of Elder Whitebeard, quickly came to another mountain peak.
This is an independent mountain peak in the Zhenyuan Immortal Gate, with sparse vegetation and strange rocks, and it is a barren mountain.
However, this mountain has an extremely loud name - Shenguang Mountain!
It is said that three thousand years ago, this is a blessed mountain of Zhenyuan Xianmen, the immortal aura is strong, the immortal trees are dense, and there are many spirit beasts gathered in it, but later there is a divine thunder falling on this peak, turning this mountain peak into a barren.
But blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and after the immortal essence of this blessed mountain was scattered by the divine thunder, it also brought a great creation.
Crown!
In that divine thunder, there was a powerful crown of light, which fell on this blessed mountain.
The majestic power of the crown of light rushed into the sky, attracting the attention of many strong people in the fairy world, and they came to scramble, including many powerhouses at the level of immortal kings, and even the legendary immortal emperor appeared, shaking for a while, but in the end of the battle, the crown of light was nowhere to be found.
A group of immortal powerhouses searched for several years to no avail, so they could only leave.
And this Fushan was later guarded by the Zhenyuan Sect at that time and renamed Shenguang Mountain.
"However, what does this Shenguang Mountain have to do with our assessment?"
After listening to the introduction, the crane on the side frowned and couldn't help asking.
Fang Xuanzong also turned his head to look at Luo Jingtian on the side.
"Hehe, this matter has to start with our current master."
Luo Jingtian smiled:
"Five hundred years ago, the current head of the sect succeeded to the throne, I don't know what's going on, I actually retraced the crown of light that fell from the sky three thousand years ago, this search is ten years, no one knows if the true yuan master sect found the crown of light, but after that, a secret realm appeared on Shenguang Mountain."
"Secret Realm?"
Fang Xuanzong suddenly frowned, and his heart was very curious.
"That's right...... but it doesn't matter to us, you'll find out next."
Luo Jingtian blinked his eyes and bought a pass.
Elder Whitebeard's voice rang out again:
"The second level of assessment, Guang Mian."
"In the world of martial arts, the crown is respected! If you can't sense and master the power of the Crown, you can't be called a strong person, and your progress in martial arts is limited, so what is assessed at this level is your affinity and control over the power of the Crown. β
"Next, I will teleport you into the Divine Light Secret Realm, and within half an hour, each of you needs to fuse at least one Crown Fragment to pass the assessment."
"Fragments of the Crown?"
Fang Xuanzong was stunned.
Before ancient times, in a very distant era, the Great Dao collapsed, and after that, the Great Dao condensed, condensed between heaven and earth and emitted light, something like the sun's corona, and the living beings in the Three Realms fused together, called the crown of light.
The crown contains the power of the avenue, each crown corresponds to a special ability, changing the heavens and the earth, bringing the dead back to life, among the martial artists of the same level, those who have the crown can often occupy a greater advantage in battle.
At the same time, the crown is also divided into innate crown and acquired crown, there is no difference between the two, the difference is only whether it is innate.
In these two categories, it is divided into many subcategories, such as "Dragon Elephant Power" is a power-type crown, "Undefeated Golden Body" is a defensive crown, "Stride Meteor" is a light body crown, "Meridian Heaven and Earth" is a space crown, in addition, there are healing crowns, luck crowns, and even time-type crowns, etc., all-encompassing, all kinds of wonders.
Among the Three Realms, only those who are blessed with profound blessings can obtain this special crown.
However, in addition to these complete crowns, there is also a fragment of the crown.
The Fragment of the Crown is a broken Crown of Light, which also contains the power of the Great Dao and the Rules, although the power is not as powerful as the complete Crown of Light, and the number of times it can be cast is limited, but it can also burst out with great power.
Moreover, the difficulty of fusing the coronal fragments is much lower than that of fusing the corona.
"But don't you two already have a crown? Do you still need to fuse the corona fragments? β
At this time, Xianhe couldn't help but say.
The crown of light is unique, not everyone is like Fang Xuanzong, there can be two or even three crowns of light in the body at the same time, among the three realms, almost all people can only have one crown of light in their bodies, and any more will repel each other, and they will be counterattacked by the crown, and the gains outweigh the losses.
As if in response to the crane's words, Elder Whitebeard spoke again:
"Those who have a crown of light, or who have awakened a crown of light, do not need to participate in the assessment, and can directly enter the next level."
Wow!
As soon as the voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.
No one thought that there would be such a provision in the second level of assessment.
In a short time, eleven of the nearly 100 people in the team stood up, including Fang Xuanzong and Luo Jingtian.
These are people who already have a crown.
All the people present entered the Zhenyuan Immortal Gate only after one hundred miles, and after the first level of the big waves and sand, they are basically the strongest top 100 people in the entire outer gate, and they can also be called talented and intelligent outside.
However, even if they are like them, including Fang Xuanzong, there are only eleven people who have or awakened the Crown, which shows how much the Crowns are cherished.
"Haha, this level is really comfortable, you don't have to do anything, you can advance directly, it's also so cool."
The Immortal Crane looked happy, as a pet, it could also follow Fang Xuanzong to advance together.
"Brother Luo, you already knew about this rule, right?"
Fang Xuanzong said.
Luo Jingtian smiled and said nothing.
The inner gate election may be an extremely difficult test for ordinary outer disciples, but for people like Fang Xuanzong and Luo Jingtian, who have already had a crown and have reached the immortal realm, it is like a junior high school student who has turned back to take the primary school exam, which seems to be pediatric.
ββIn the final analysis, the strength of Fang Xuanzong and the others no longer belongs to this level.
Some people are happy and some are worried, Fang Xuanzong and the others don't need to participate in the assessment, but the other more than ninety people can't be spared, looking at Fang Xuanzong and the others one by one, their eyes are full of grief and envy, but no one said anything.
At this time, Elder Whitebeard made another move.
With a wave of dust in his hand, a huge internal force slammed directly into a boulder next to him.
"Boom!"
In an instant, with a series of earth-shattering noises, the entire earth shook violently, and the earth and rocks cracked outward, as if some behemoth was drilling out of the ground.
Everyone was swaying, frightened, and retreated.
The vibration lasted for several breaths, and then quickly stopped, and immediately in front of everyone, a huge statue of a giant beast more than ten feet high appeared.
The giant beast had a dragon's head on its body, two wings on its back, and a pair of eyes that were wide open, and it looked extremely fierce.
At the moment when the giant beast statue appeared, a terrifying sword aura burst out from its body, straight into the sky, and the sword light directly illuminated the entire Shenguang Mountain, and at the same time, a bloodthirsty, murderous fierce aura filled the entire heaven and earth.
And on Shenguang Mountain, dozens of disciples who used swords, the long swords in their hands were buzzing and trembling, and they felt a great fear.
"What a terrifying sword aura!"
Fang Xuanzong was also secretly frightened.
Even with his current cultivation, he felt a deep fear in front of this sword qi.
"What kind of monster is this, just a statue, and it's so terrifying."
Xianhe also asked with a palpitation on his face.
"This is the Divine Beast."
Unexpectedly, this time it was Fang Xuanzong who spoke, he looked up at the giant beast statue in front of him, and said thoughtfully:
"The dragon gave birth to nine sons, the second of which was born of a dragon and a jackal, the jackal has a dragon head, a fierce and fierce personality, bloodthirsty and murderous, and the most resentful, and the world calls it a jaldew."
"Legend has it that Jairus was born with a strange birth, and when he was born, he held a sword in his mouth, and his sword aura was soaring into the sky, and it was extremely fierce, so many warriors in the mortal world would engrave his eyes on the sword ring and the hilt of the sword to increase his own powerful power. The sword qi from before is probably also related to this. β
The sword master kills, and the sword is born, and its killing aura is heavy, you can imagine.
