Chapter VII Jianlu Assessment

For the next two days, Shen Chuan stayed in the Sword Pavilion.

Under the peak, between a sparse bamboo forest, an independent house is Shen Chuan's new residence. This place is not far from Mu Yuyin's residence, she lives on the outskirts of the bamboo forest, which is a complex of buildings where many disciples of the Sword Lu live. It's just that I haven't seen her for the past two days, and she seems to be busy with something.

Shen Chuan fell in love with it as soon as he came: the environment is quiet and the air is refreshing.

There are many classic buildings in the Sword Pavilion, and there are a large number of classics in the classic buildings, all of which are the summaries of the experience of the sages in exploring the eight wildernesses, and they are collected into a book with bamboo slips, and they are hidden in many classic buildings that are nine stories high.

The Classics Building was not guarded, and as soon as he entered, he began to learn about this great wilderness without sleeping or eating.

According to Mu Yuyin's arrangement at the beginning, he should be practicing the first chapter of the Sword Sutra now, but Chihai Lingjun did not agree to her proposal. This couldn't help but make Shen Chuan wonder: Why was Chi Hai Lingjun so confident in himself?

Shen Chuan knew that in fact, he didn't know anything, except for the brute force that came from nowhere, the only Heart Sutra was still incomplete, and he suspected that the Heart Sutra he knew was just a preface.

Looking at those disciples of the Sword Lu in a hurry, Shen Chuan vaguely understood that a large number of people had gathered at the foot of the mountain in the past two days, all of whom had come to participate in the recruitment assessment of the new disciples of the Sword Lu. According to Mu Yuyin, the Jianlu assessment is attended by people from various empires, from any family, nobles, and even royal families, those people have certain talents, and they generally start practicing since childhood...... He went to participate by himself, which can be described as a dark eye and a touch to the end.

"Although time is limited, I have been reading non-stop in the Classics Building for the past two days, and I have a general understanding of the world. ”

After coming out, Shen Chuan thought in his heart that he would definitely go to the Classics Building more often if he had time in the future. Walking alone back to the edge of the complex, he stopped past the sparse bamboo forest. The complex could be seen from a distance, and Shen Chuan looked around to see that there was no one, and sat down on the spot.

"The Heart Sutra is about purifying the mind, and the purpose of the verses in it is nothing more than that. ”

"These abilities go a long way in calming my eyes, but can they still be used against enemies?"

Shen Chuan had a bitter face, he couldn't figure out what Mu Yuyin had said about the Heart Sutra that had prevented the battle of the Demon God.

"The so-called pure mind only affects oneself, what impact does it have on outsiders?"

Suddenly, he thought of the snake that day. Why did it flinch when it saw the blue light emitted from his hand? Although he didn't know why, as soon as he recited the Heart Sutra silently, the place where his mental power was concentrated would emit a blue light that had a calming effect, which was not offensive in any way.

"Maybe it's because ...... This Heart Sutra is too 'broken'. ”

As soon as he thought of this, he had to think of his own life experience. Chihai Lingjun deliberately concealed his background, so there are advantages, but as Mu Yuyin said, unknown dangers may come at any time.

"When I am successful in my cultivation and walk out of the Sword House, there may be a way to find out. ”

"The way of the sword takes a long time. According to what they said, I can't monopolize swordsmanship, according to what I learned in the classics building in the past two days, there are many ways for human beings to cultivate, and the more famous ones are rune masters, swordsmen, body refiners, array mages, alchemists, and refiners...... There are even demon cultivators, monks, how should I choose?"

But soon, he realized: "Except for the swordsman who has an opportunity to practice now, the body refiner may also be good, and the rest will have the opportunity to learn again in the future...... Since I can't do it alone, then I'll first look at the hundreds of schools, and then find the right way for myself!"

After making up his mind, Shen Chuan found his own direction, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy.

What he never expected was that the decision he made today would coincidentally achieve his reputation as "stealing the holy hand" in the future, and thus let him find a place in this wilderness, which is a later story.

Time in cultivation always passed quickly, and Shen Chuan now took the time to silently recite the remaining Heart Sutra in his mind several times a day. Because he found that this had the advantage of giving him better control of his eyes, and after meditating, a feeling of well-being made him even more enthusiastic about it.

Moreover, he faintly felt that the blue light emitted from his body when he cultivated the Heart Sutra could improve people's physique. This can't help but make him reverie, is this the reason why he is more powerful?

He remembered that when he fought against the puppets of the disciples of the God Refining Sect on the outskirts of the primeval forest, it seemed that out of instinct, he was able to resist the attacks of such forces. If the puppet hadn't hit him, but a man-high rock, he would have believed that the stone would have been shattered!

In a flash, it was dusk again, and the disciples of Jianlu came back one after another, and Shen Chuan began to hide in the bamboo forest again to eavesdrop on their conversation...... This is the homework he must do in the past two days, so that he can understand what is happening under the mountain - Mu Yuyin did not teach him how to pass through the dangerous cloud area.

The most important thing on Sword Pavilion Mountain is the bamboo forest, he eavesdropped from afar, and was not discovered by those disciples.

Moreover, he found that after cultivating the Heart Sutra, his hearing had increased significantly, and he could even faintly hear the subtle sound of bamboo leaves falling to the ground in the forest!

"What are you doing here?"

A voice suddenly appeared behind him, startling him: Could it be that the eavesdropping was discovered? Strange, how could this voice be so familiar?

Shen Chuan hurriedly turned around, and saw Mu Yuyin's white forehead, a pair of clear eyes looking at him suspiciously.

"Sister, you're finally back, I'm eavesdropping here!"

He didn't have any reservations about Mu Yuyin, and the twelve-year-old was a little dependent on this girl who was three years older.

"Eavesdropping?"

"yes!"

“...... Early tomorrow morning, follow me down the mountain, and the Jianlu assessment has begun. Mu Yuyin spoke as concisely as ever.

"How will I take the test, will I have to fight?"

Mu Yuyin stood in the bamboo forest and looked at him. He's a boy who seems to be weak, but he has amazing strength in his body, as for martial arts...... It's just going to mess around.

She nodded silently, and Shen Chuan suddenly made a bitter face.

"I really can't, you can follow me when the time comes. ”

Looking at Mu Yuyin's expression, it seemed that he had made this decision with great difficulty.

However, Shen Chuan still said excitedly: "That's really good!"

In the early morning of the second day, Shen Chuan and Mu Yuyin went down the mountain together.

The environment around Jianlu was very strange, at least in Shen Chuan's eyes, even if it was a hearty day, there were still large clouds floating in the air. If only he had known these things before, but after going to the Sword Pavilion, he understood that there were some formations in it to protect the mountaintop residence.

According to a certain book in the Classics Building, all the sects on this continent, even some families, or the residences of alien beasts with spiritual wisdom will have similar protection formations.

He didn't look at anything else in the classic building, but he got to know this desolate continent, focusing on understanding the many sects and forces on this continent. Among them, he paid special attention to the Great Xia Empire, because there was actually a "Xia" in the name of this empire, which made him think of his name called Xia Wuchuan...... After learning about it, he was amazed, and he also learned that there was a profession of rune master in the Great Wilderness.

At the foot of Jianlu Mountain, seven giant peaks surround it. Jianlu Mountain itself occupies a radius of several miles, plus seven peaks, and the area belonging to Jianlu is estimated by the market, at least occupying a radius of nearly 100 miles! If he walked on foot, he believed that if he was given a month, it would be difficult for him to stop at the foot of each mountain.

But fortunately, the disciples of the Sword House were able to fly with the sword! This discovery dispelled the curiosity in Shen Chuan's heart, so it was much easier for them to travel between the mountains.

So the flight of the sword gave birth to an infinite yearning in his heart!

The first time, definitely the first time, Shen Chuan assured, it was the first time he flew on a sword! Mu Yuyin stood in front of Shen Chuan, Shen Chuan put one hand on her shoulder in silver armor, and under the feet of the two of them was a giant version of a sword...... Mu Yuyin's strange-looking but beautiful sword. At this time, the two of them flew in the air in a volley, passing through the clouds, and flew down from the top of the Sword Pavilion Mountain, targeting the foot of the Sword Lu Mountain.

"Sister, this ...... It's amazing, you can teach me!"

Mu Yuyin no longer refuted Shen Chuan calling her sister, otherwise it would be difficult for the two sides to communicate. This also gave her a reason to discipline him, otherwise he would have really given her a headache at some times.

"Yes, you'll learn it soon. ”

"Really?"

Shen Chuan didn't expect her to agree, but then Mu Yuyin didn't say much. Not long after, a majestic mountain peak, the two in flight were like ants on the peak, gradually shrinking, until they disappeared at the foot of the sword.

......

It was the first time Shen Chuan had seen so many people, and he could remember it.

In the crowd, there were golden yellow cloak chariots pulled by unknown beasts, on which sat a few young men and a few servants, there were quaint chariots, riding some young people and a few middle-aged people with their eyes closed, and even more, they rode directly on the top of a big tree on a huge bird and beast that could fly...... But more often than not, there are different forms of lone rangers at the foot of the mountain, and most of them carry a sword in their arms.

"Oh no, Sister Mu forgot to remind me that I should also go get a sword!"

Behind the crowd, Shen Chuan regretted. He wants to be assessed by the sword, how can he not have a sword?

At this time, Mu Yuyin had already walked to the foot of the mountain in front of him, where there were dozens of people dressed as disciples of the Sword Mansion, and behind them was a lush forest. There were at least a thousand people in the bustling crowd, and Mu Yuyin asked Shen Chuan to wait at the edge of the crowd first, and he was happy to stand on the periphery.

"This brother. ”

Shen Chuan turned around and saw a young man with the same empty hands walking over, and he heard Shen Chuan's whisper.

"Don't you have a sword with you?"

"I came in a hurry, and I forgot about it...... My name is Zhong Hao, what do you call my brother? It is said that the assessment of Jianlu is extremely dangerous, and when the time comes, they will also take care of each other. ”

The man named Zhong Hao was actually only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a strong figure and sharp facial features, and his whole body made Shen Chuan feel like he was as his name...... This must be a bold person!

However, hearing his words, Shen Chuan frowned.

I have to take care of each other? Although you may also have some martial arts, you are definitely not as good as Sister Mu!

After thinking about this, Shen Chuan's face turned straight, and he put on a stand and said: "Brother Tai has misunderstood! I am already a disciple of the Sword Mansion, you are a newcomer, right? I see that your bones are clear, you will definitely be able to enter the Sword Mansion, I allow you to call me Senior Brother in advance!"
