Chapter 7: Inner Door and Outer Hall Disciples
"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi!" this is what Jiang Shuyuan said to Wang Xian just now. At this time, this sentence was also said by Ma Yilong to himself in his heart. What he meant by saying this was not only to sigh that he was now down, but also to remind himself and remember Wang Xian's humiliation of himself.
He is not a narrow-minded person, but he is definitely not a lamb to be slaughtered, Ma Yilong told himself in his heart that he must Wang Xian pay the price for today.
The tests were carried out one after another, and the people who came to participate in the selection were soon all tested! The disciples of the inner gate and inner hall were selected in total, and more than sixty people were selected. Like Ma Yilong, there are about 200 people who have been tentatively designated as outer disciples.
Jiang Shuyuan stood up, bowed his hand to everyone, and said in a loud voice: "Those who have been designated as disciples of the inner gate and inner hall can leave with Senior Brother Wang! Those who were designated as disciples of the outer gate just now can stay and show their martial arts on the spot." Those with excellent martial arts skills can become disciples of the inner and outer halls. Those who are not selected will continue to be outer disciples!"
But before he finished speaking, Wang Xian had already left with the disciples who had been selected as the inner hall of the inner gate! Before leaving, Wang Xian snorted coldly at Jiang Shuyuan, and glared at Ma Yilong fiercely. It can be seen that even if Ma Yilong doesn't go to him in the future, he will take the initiative to find trouble.
"If you get cheap and pay it back~ you are a good person, you are really a complete villain!" Fang Ming, who was standing next to Ma Yilong, scolded Wang Xian's back in a low voice. Although his voice is not loud, it shows that he is a jealous and hateful person, which also makes him and Ma Yilong become lifelong friends in the future!
And before leaving, Wang Xian was not the only one who looked back at Ma Yilong, but also the jade girl Xin Ruyi. It's just that her eyes when she looks at Ma Yilong are full of encouragement, reluctance, pity, and love buried deep in her heart.
Under the leadership of Jiang Shuyuan and other Qi refining period disciples, Ma Yilong and the others came to the open place in the middle of the square and stepped forward to show their martial arts one after another.
Ma Yilong took a sword from the hand of a Qi refining disciple, and just practiced an extremely ordinary set of swordsmanship on the spot, but the speed surprised everyone. Jiang Shuyuan stretched out his thumb, and Ma Yilong was successfully selected as a disciple of the inner and outer halls!
These people were quickly displayed one by one, and there were thirty people selected together with Ma Yilong. There is a fellow disciple named Zhao Fan, he left a deep impression on Ma Yilong, not only did he shoot his sword quickly, but also the sword moves he used were also very peculiar.
There are also two classmates who impressed Ma Yilong, one is Fang Ming, who scolded Wang Xian angrily, and the other is Zhang Xian, who instigated right and wrong, these two people were also selected as the outer disciples of the inner gate.
"All of you have been selected as the disciples of the Inner Gate and the Outer Hall, come with me directly! The rest of the people will be arranged by these Qi refining disciples!" Jiang Shuyuan waved to Ma Yilong and the others as he spoke, and planned to take them away!
"In Xialiulin, I'm a step late, I don't know if I can participate in the election?" Jiang Shuyuan just turned around, and this voice came from behind him, the voice was very crisp and pleasant, and those who didn't know thought it was a woman's voice!
When Jiang Shuyuan heard this, he hurriedly turned around, and a young man appeared in front of him in an instant. Dressed in white, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, it was the white-clothed young man who had been hiding in the dark and talking to the people of Chiyun Dao before. And the reason why he wants to come out is naturally the meaning of the Chiyun Dao people. Jiang Shuyuan glanced at the willow forest and couldn't help but be stunned.
It's nothing else, with Jiang Shuyuan's cultivation in the early stage of foundation building, it can be seen clearly, Liu Lin now has the cultivation of the thirteenth layer of qi refining, and he will be able to build the foundation immediately! Moreover, when he arrived behind him, Jiang Shuyuan didn't even find out. This is enough to show that Liu Lin's real strength is not inferior to Jiang Shuyuan.
"This Daoist, it's a bit difficult for me to answer directly when you ask such a question! With Daoist friends having such cultivation at such an age, in fact, even if he enters the inner door and inner hall, it is completely possible. However, that Senior Brother Wang had already left. Otherwise, wait until I know the master?" Jiang Shuyuan looked embarrassed, and what he said was also the truth. Obviously, he has already made it clear that he does not want to wronged the other party, nor does he want to ask Wang Xian.
"This senior doesn't have to be embarrassed, as long as I can be like them, just be an inner and outer disciple!"
After Liu Lin finished speaking, he went directly to the disciple who was holding the test magic plate. The disciple also understood what he meant, and directly put the Dharma Plate in his hand, waiting for him to reach out and test it. Liu Lin smiled and pressed his palm on it. Everyone present was shocked, it turned out to be Erlinggen.
Without waiting for Jiang Shuyuan to say anything, Liu Lin grabbed another sword from the hands of a disciple and practiced a set of swordsmanship on the spot. The sword is danced with the wind, the attack is more agile, and the sword moves are more mysterious. Although the sword is far less fast than Ma Yilong, and the sword moves are not as peculiar as Zhao Fan, according to today's selection standards, it is enough to be an outer disciple!
"Daoist friends are so cultivated, they are two spirit roots, and they have this good swordsmanship, it is enough to be a disciple of the inner and outer halls! It's just that I can't help but be a little wronged!" Jiang Shuyuan looked at Liu Lin and said with a sincere face.
"There's nothing to be wronged about! I'm an ordinary casual cultivator, wandering around, which is very inconvenient. If you are lucky enough to worship the mountain gate, you will already be very satisfied!" Liu Lin also looked sincere when he spoke.
"Since that's the case, I'll be bold in making the decision, you can follow me!" Jiang Shuyuan nodded with a smile and directly responded to the matter.
Although Ma Yilong didn't know what Liulin came for, he vaguely felt that this person was not simple. In terms of cultivation, Ma Yilong naturally couldn't see anything. But when it comes to martial arts, Ma Yilong is definitely a master among masters. He could see that Liu Lin didn't have any swordsmanship skills at all, and these moves seemed to be presentable, but they were actually flashy.
Since Liu Lin has no foundation in martial arts and has the opportunity to enter the inner hall, he gave up the opportunity to fight for it, but he wants to be like them, willing to be a disciple of the outer hall, he must have come with a purpose. Ma Yilong thought of this instantly. He had to admit that after Shangguan Qiong's lesson, he had changed, and he would no longer look at everyone so simply.
Jiang Shuyuan didn't seem to see it, smiled slightly, and led everyone into the gate of the Purple Cloud Sect.
In front of him is a long bluestone staircase, judging from the traces left by the erosion of the bluestone surface by wind, frost, rain and snow, the Purple Cloud Sect has also been around for a certain number of years. The steps are flanked by steep slopes with tall trees, the upper ends of which are densely foliage that obscure the flowers and plants below.
Looking along the hillside into the distance, the hillside is connected to the valley, and the valley is connected to the hillside, and there is no edge in sight. In the nearby valleys, there are colorful flowers, springs, and streams. On the hillside in the distance, you can vaguely see many caves embedded in it.
Some tall mountain peaks, towering into the clouds, surrounded by mist, like a fairyland!
After walking for half a pillar of incense, I stepped on the last step, and my eyes suddenly opened up. It was another large clearing, much larger than the square outside the mountain gate. The other three sides of the clearing are dotted with paths leading to the various peaks.
Jiang Shuyuan didn't speak, and went directly to a path on the right, and Ma Yilong and the others naturally followed him closely. The crowd followed the path and soon appeared at the foot of a mountain.
In front of you is also a large square, and on both sides of the square are rows of halls with a very simple appearance. There are marks on the door beams of the main hall, some are alchemy rooms, some are book rooms, and some are meeting halls. On the opposite side of the square there are several paths leading to the hillside, each corresponding to a cave at the end.
Jiang Shuyuan led everyone to a conference hall and let everyone sit down. The chamber was spacious, large enough for four or five hundred people. After they were all seated, two Qi Refining Stage disciples walked in outside, holding a lot of books in their hands, each of them giving out three copies, one "Instructions for Cultivating Immortals", another "Introduction to Qi Refining", and one was "Sect Book Catalogue and Charging Guide".
Ma Yilong just opened it and looked at it a few times, then smiled. The book "Instructions for Cultivating Immortals" in his hand only introduced the situation of cultivating immortals in the entire Qingyan Continent, which was much different from the one that Shangguan Qiong gave him.
After everyone got the book, Jiang Shuyuan finally spoke. His words not only let everyone know a lot about the Purple Cloud Sect, but also solved many puzzles in everyone's hearts one by one.
According to what Jiang Shuyuan said, this Purple Cloud Sect had a figure who directly ascended to the Heavenly Immortal Realm tens of thousands of years ago. And now, under the influence of aura and various constraints, let alone the Purple Cloud Sect, only five people in the entire Qingyan Continent have entered the middle interface of the Ascension Spirit Realm in the past 10,000 years.
Because they didn't leave the Yuan Shen Lantern at that time, whether these five seniors crossed the four immortal gates in the interface, and whether they successfully entered the spirit realm, that is something that no one can say. And in the past thousand years, in the entire Qingyan Continent, there has not been a single cultivator in the late Yuan Infant Stage, who has made an attempt to ascend to the spirit realm.
Jiang Shuyuan also explained this test, which was similar to what the people of Chiyun Dao said, except that the ascension order was hidden.
