Chapter 343: Demon Slayer Island
"Former ...... Senior, what did you say?"
Chi Yu glanced at the old man in disbelief, and then his body couldn't help but tremble. For him, didn't he go through a lot of hardships to go to the coast of the North Sea just to participate in the Demon Slayer Island and make himself stronger?
Now, when he heard the old man's approval, he couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart after all. Passing the final test doesn't mean that he can reach Demon Slayer Island?
"Don't be too happy, if you can't pass the selection meeting on Demon Slayer Island, then you will still be sent back. As the Messenger, I'm only in charge of bringing you to Demon Slayer Island. Either way, though, you're one step closer to success. ”
"Thank you, senior!"
Chi You breathed rapidly, and suddenly made a junior salute to the old man. Although he came up with all this by himself, if he didn't have the guidance of the old man, he might not really have understood that deep meaning so quickly.
"You're welcome, since you've passed the test, I'll take you to Demon Slayer Island!" the old man smiled and nodded, then stood on the edge of the ice cliff and whistled. Immediately afterward, Chi You saw two dolphins swimming towards the two.
"Is that the creature?"
"That's right!"
After a brief conversation, the old man stepped on a dolphin first. Seeing this, Chi Yu also followed. The dolphin whined, then turned into a streamer and swam quickly north. Along the way, the two of them were silent, and soon they saw an island in sight.
......
Demon Slayer Island, founded in ancient times. As the name suggests, it is an organization that slaughters monsters. It once played a pivotal role in the great turmoil of antiquity. In other words, the people who originally created Demon Slayer Island were to give the mainland peace and stability.
The earliest mantra of Demon Slayer Island is to eliminate demons and defend the way, and promote the righteousness of heaven and earth. However, many years have passed, and since only one person is born on Demon Slayer Island every hundred years, some forces on the mainland have almost forgotten that there is such an organization.
But in any case, this organization has existed for tens of thousands of years, and the background is simply terrifying. No matter how forgotten it is, some high-level superpowers still have a great impression of this name.
In addition, what makes the forces on the mainland dare not forget is that the demon slayer kings born on Demon Slayer Island every hundred years must be anti-heaven monsters with great magical powers. If someone conflicts with them, then that person will be in bad luck.
Demon Slayer Island is located in the extreme north of the North Sea, and although the climate is harsh, the island has a powerful and specially arranged formation, making it habitable. In addition, due to its harsh environment, a dry demon slayer happens to get the best training.
The old man told Chiyou that at present, Demon Slaying Island is divided into two parts, the outer island and the inner island, and the number of new members recruited at a time is about 1,000.
In addition, there is a strict hierarchy system in Demon Slayer Island, and for the students of Demon Slayer Island, from low to high, they can be divided into junior demon slayers, intermediate demon slayers, advanced demon slayers, special demon slayers and demon slayer kings.
The five levels are not completely ranked according to strength, but to integrate the qualities of all aspects. Wisdom, courage and other qualities are indispensable. Only if you meet the requirements in every aspect will you be eligible to apply for the upgrade, which will be granted by the elders on the island.
Having said that, even the elders on the island have a clear hierarchy, but their title is to replace the word demon slayer with a mentor. The promotion system is not much different from that of the students.
Chi Yu stood on top of the dolphin, and little by little he approached the Demon Slayer Island. After a few hours, he finally landed on the land of Demon Slayer Island. At first glance, there is no such desolate scenery as the Far North, and it is even more prosperous than some cities.
"Senior, what do I need to do now?"
Chi You, under the leadership of the old man, came to the Demon Slayer Island. Looking at the city-like island, he lost his mind for a moment. Seeing this, the old man smiled slightly and said, "I'll take you to the registration office of the selection conference on the outer islands first, and then I'll help you find a place to settle down." ”
"Oh, good!"
Demon Slayer Island is so bustling that you can't imagine it's an island. According to Chi You's estimates, the area of Demon Slayer Island must be at least more than 9 million square kilometers. Such a large area is already comparable to some small landmasses.
Chi You followed the old man all the way and met many children his age. However, they all seem to have elders with them, but Chi Yu is alone. While walking towards the registration location, Chiyou couldn't help asking, "Senior, is the selection meeting difficult?"
Hearing this, the old man's breath stagnated slightly, and then he muttered for a while, and said, "Little guy, if it is according to your current strength, I'm afraid it is impossible to pass the assessment?"
"Why?"
"Alas, although the minimum requirement for Demon Slayer Island is the Tianyuan Realm, some people who have just entered this realm will not be able to withstand that cruel assessment at all. Besides, a person like you who cultivates in the wild path has irreparable sequelae. ”
"What after-effects?" Chiyu asked in a low voice, frowning.
"People who start cultivating in Yeluzi lack the assistance of herbs and pills, so they are easy to refine their bodies. In addition, although the foundation of the appearance seems to be solid, he doesn't even understand the true meaning of cultivation, and he just tosses and turns all the way?"
"Maybe you don't like what I'm saying, but it's true. If you want to refute it, then answer me first, what is practice?"
"What are the characteristics of the Yuan Layer Realm, the Micro Yuan Realm, the Spirit Yuan Realm, the Yuan God Realm, and the Heavenly Yuan Realm, and how should a cultivator cultivate this heavy realm?"
The old man's voice was very soft, but it brought a great shock to Chiyou. He was right, Chi Yu hadn't even figured out the most basic cultivation intentions. What is cultivation, why do cultivators have to divide into so many realms, and what is the profound meaning?
A series of question marks appeared in Chiyu's mind, and he couldn't find an answer at all. For a moment, he couldn't help but be stunned in place. I don't know how long it took for his body to shake suddenly, and he asked in a lost voice: "Senior, is there any solution?"
The old man glanced at Chi Yu deeply, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said, "Even if you know the solution, no one wants to do it." If you want to get back on track, the only way to cultivate is to abolish your current cultivation and rebuild the major realms of the past. ”
"What did you say?"
Chi You's whole body was shocked, and his face turned pale. I want him to abolish his current cultivation and rebuild his previous major realms, like this...... Is it possible?
"Hehe, don't think about it so much, the place to sign up has arrived!" The old man patted Chiyou's shoulder lightly and said encouragingly: "Little guy, your understanding is very good, you don't have to do what I say, practice hard!"
He nodded dumbfoundedly, his mind tumbling.
"Hey, Old Wen, you personally bring someone over, it's really rare!"
A voice sounded, but it pulled back the thoughts of Chi You and the old man. The old man glanced at the person who was talking to him and chuckled, "Xiao Zhang, what's so strange. Since he came over by himself, I will naturally be in charge of the work of leading!"
"Elder Wen, you...... What do you say?"
"It's nothing, hurry up and sign him up, I'm going to take him to find a place to live?" said Wen Lao impatiently.
"Oh, okay!"
It took the man a long time to come back to his senses, and he suddenly glanced at Chi Yu with a strange look in his eyes. He knew how perverted the assessment of the old man in front of him was, who knew that someone actually came from him, what a big miracle!
After completing the registration procedures, Wen Lao led Chiyou to an apartment concentration place. Seeing that Chi You's face was a little confused, Wen Lao smiled and said, "The apartment in front of you is a concentrated residence for students from the outer islands, you have to get along well with others!"
"Ah, isn't it one person in one room?"
Chi You's words immediately caused the people around him to pay attention to him. Those people, more or less, have a little understanding of the rules of Demon Slayer Island, where is like Chiyou, they don't understand anything at all. Yes, when someone heard his words, they couldn't help but sneer.
"Haha, little guy, think about it, if there is one person in one room, there are so many people on this island, and they must not live in the sea!" Wen Lao laughed, then patted Chiyou's shoulder again, and said, "Let's stay here!"
"During the time you live, there will be people who will be lecturing in that shed, and you can go and listen to it, and it may help you. After Wen Lao finished speaking, he pointed to a small shed not far away, where several students were already seated, listening attentively to the lecture.
"The selection meeting will start in ten days, and someone will call you then, I'll go first!" After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chi You's response, Elder Wen took the lead in walking into the distance. Seeing this, Chi You touched his nose, and a meaningful gaze appeared in his eyes.
......
Coming to the downstairs of the apartment building, Chi Yu looked up and found that the apartment building was six stories high. Glancing at the key in his hand, the three numbers 610 were written in big numbers. For a moment, he frowned slightly, this number meant that his residence was on the sixth floor.
"Alas, forget it, if you come, you will be safe!"
Chiyu shook his head and walked into the apartment building step by step. At that moment, an old man sitting in the doorway caught his attention.
The old man looked very old, dressed in a gray cloth coat, and the wrinkles on his face were enough to trap more than double-digit flies at the same time.
His eyes were yellow, his eyelids drooped, and he looked like he was in his last years. The sunlight in the building was just enough to shine on him, and the half-reclining chair looked comfortable.
Chi You stepped forward and said respectfully: "Hello senior, I am a new student, it seems that I live on the sixth floor here, do you need to check my house key?"
Hearing this, the old man stretched out his right hand without raising his head, and a hoarse and low voice sounded: "Little guy, take a look!"
Chi Yu hurriedly handed it over.
The old man took the key and shook it in front of his eyes, gave it back to him, and said softly: "Go, room 610 is on the sixth floor, the third room on the left hand, there is a sign on the door, don't go wrong!"
"Thank you, senior!"
After bowing to the old man again, Chiyou walked into his room. The old man kept his original posture still, and muttered: "A rare polite child, but it's a pity, the foundation is good, but the foundation is not strong!"
