Chapter 13 The Old Man is in the Clan
Drifting Cloud Sect
The white clouds are light and the mist is filled, giving the green mountains and forests a hazy robe.
On this vast and lush mountain forest, the handsome and upright Ye Xin came to a grave with a bouquet of white chrysanthemums.
Suddenly, Ye Xin's pace stopped, and he looked at the few white chrysanthemums scattered in front of the grave in a daze.
After a while, Ye Xin lowered his hand holding Bai Ju, leaned to the side and said, "Why hide and hide, is it because you feel guilty about me, or are you afraid that I will demolish you." ”
Time seemed to stand still, only the breeze whined among the branches, blowing down the fallen leaves.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life walked out of the fallen leaves in the sky and looked at Ye Xin quietly.
"You're already better than me, and I'd have wanted to hide for a while. The middle-aged man shook his head with a wry smile.
Ye Xin suddenly roared: "Hide and hide, you know to hide, what are you hiding?"
The middle-aged man's body stiffened, and his eyes became more and more cloudy......
"Six Thousand Cloud Gate!"
At the moment of crisis, Rong Weifan suddenly swept from the sky, and the six thousand cloud gates met the fist shadow one after another, and he himself was lying on his back in the air, his arms were round, forming a vast circular mirror wall like a Fatu.
Rumble!
The shadow of the fist descended, and the sky collapsed. The golden-clothed leader's lore punch was weakened by the Phantom Cloud Array and the 100,000 Cloud Gate that was unstained in the night, coupled with Rong Weifan's desperate defense, the power was reduced by more than 10,000 times.
But even so, that energy still caused the Snow Lotus Thousand Ice Array that guarded the Night Mansion to collapse, so that the cultivators who were closely related to the formation suffered heavy casualties.
The Night Mansion was basically unharmed, but the cultivators who guarded it were more than half of the casualties.
In a pool of blood, Ye Haotian dragged his bloody body and slowly stood up, his eyes staring into the distance with all his might, which was the direction of home.
"It's Deacon Ye, quick, Deacon Ye is still alive. ”
Several cultivators who were in charge of treating the wounded hurriedly dodged over, but they were suddenly shocked.
In their line of sight, Ye Haotian's entire upper body was almost shattered, and even the broken sternum and broken internal organs could be seen in the blurred flesh and blood.
How is it possible that such an injury is still alive?
Ye Haotian slowly advanced under the horrified gaze of these people, they swallowed a few saliva in shock, and one of them trembled: "Ye ...... Deacon Ye, still deal with it...... Wound it. ”
This person spoke in an extremely low voice, as if he was worried that too loud would cause Ye Haotian's body to collapse.
Ye Haotian said weakly: "My injury, is there still a need to deal with it?"
Ye Haotian's words made the people next to him silent, indeed, even if they wanted to deal with it, they were powerless.
Ye Haotian walked slowly, and there was a wail around him, but those who wept bitterly were all shocked and silent when they saw Ye Haotian with blurred flesh and blood. They involuntarily gave way to a road, and that road led directly to the Ye family.
At this time, the Ye family's mansion had been buried by several boulders, and seeing this scene, Ye Haotian's body trembled suddenly, and it seemed that he was about to fall.
Suddenly, a subtle cry came from under the stones, although the voice was very light and thin, but it seemed to contain infinite power, and Ye Haotian, who heard the voice, was actually full of vitality again.
His broken body surged with great strength, and the dozens of tons of boulder were easily lifted, only to see a familiar corpse lying below, and below it was a crying baby boy.
"It's okay, there's a father here, it's okay. Ye Haotian picked up the baby boy and smiled with tears, "You won't be a fatherless child, I will guard you to grow up." ”
seemed to understand Ye Haotian's words, the boy's cry became weaker and weaker, and the pink little hands curled up unconsciously in the air.
Ye Haotian walked out of his memories and looked at Ye Xindao seriously: "I'm hiding from myself, I'm an irresponsible father." ”
Ye Xin stared at Ye Haotian fiercely, and the muscles in his face were trembling.
"Your mother's death is death, why are there so many?"
"In the world of cultivators, it is extremely normal for one or two relatives to die, and I still have a task to do, so I don't have time to listen to your crying. If you have time to cry here, it's better to work hard to refine your body, I won't go home once in a few years, and if I don't have the ability to protect myself, maybe one day I will die like your mother. ”
"I only care about your cultivation progress, don't talk nonsense to me, your father is a deacon, and you will become a deacon in the future. ”
"If there is no one to take care of you, I will help you find a new mother. ”
......
In the past, his father's cruel words were vividly remembered, and suddenly, Ye Xin suddenly knelt down, and his knees sank deep into the ground.
"I'm not filial. Ye Xin gritted his teeth with tears, he had learned from his stepmother Xiao Xiao that his father had been holding on with fatal injuries for more than ten years, just to protect himself from growing up, and deliberately stimulating himself, in fact, he wanted to let himself cultivate with hatred, so that he could be more quickly.
He can't afford this father's love!
――――――
Martial arts training ground
"Cultivator assessment, start now!"
Gu Huahao, who was dressed in cyan brocade, stood in front of hundreds of teenagers and girls and announced.
Next to him is a large black tripod, this tripod is about five feet wide and nearly four feet high, the black tripod is covered with traces of time, even in the bright sunshine still emits bursts of coldness.
"Jiang Ning, get ready to start. ”
Jiang Ning, a young man dressed in gray, walked out of the side of the crowd, came to Dading, and said softly, "I'm ready." ”
"It's OK to start. ”
After hearing the command, Jiang Ning closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and opened his arms to barely surround Dading. Immediately, his eyes widened, his legs suddenly exerted force, the green tendons on his arms burst out, and the heavy Dading suddenly left the ground.
When the bottom of the Dading rose to about three feet from the ground, Jiang Ning finally exhausted his strength, and with a "bang", the Dading fell back to the ground.
Jiang Ning put his hands on Ding's body, took a few breaths, and then looked at Gu Huahao, his eyes full of anticipation.
Gu Huahao smiled slightly: "The Dingzuo is just three feet from the ground, pass!"
......
The assessment of cultivators is divided into three parts, one is the strength to carry the tripod, the second is to move like the wind, and the third is to float like a flocculent, which corresponds to strength, speed, and flexibility.
The assessment of strength to carry the tripod is to rely on the strength to lift the heavy tripod, a tripod weighs 667 catties; the assessment of moving like riding the wind is to run a certain distance within the specified time, and if you want to pass, the speed must reach one breath and six zhang.
The most difficult test is the fluttering one, as the test subject needs to pass through a 100-meter "stake forest", which is flanked by iron crates that fire a large number of arrows as they move forward.
The arrow does not have a sharp tip, and its front part is made of wax and coated with red dye. Subjects must try to avoid the ground if they do not fall to the ground. If you fall to the ground or if you are hit by too many arrows in the process of advancing, you will be judged to have failed.
......
After three rounds of assessment, only about 60 of the hundreds of teenagers and girls remained. More than sixty prospective cultivators stood in line, looking at Gu Huahao in unison.
Gu Huahao said solemnly: "First of all, congratulations on passing the cultivator's assessment, but this doesn't mean that you are cultivators. Now I ask you, what is a cultivator?"
"Those who cultivate the energy of heaven and earth are cultivators. The crowd replied in unison.
"Not bad. Gu Huahao nodded, "Actually, this sentence is another way of speaking, that is, if you want to become a cultivator, you must have the talent to cultivate the energy of heaven and earth. Now that your body has reached the standard of cultivation, whether or not you can become a cultivator depends on whether you have this talent. ”
At this time, a middle-aged man walked over with dozens of books with dark blue covers in both hands.
At Gu Huahao's signal, the middle-aged man handed out the books to everyone.
When each of the teenagers and girls had a copy, Gu Huahao spoke: "What you have in your hands is the technique of cultivating the energy and qi of heaven and earth-Xuan Jue. This is the most basic and important exercise for cultivators, that is, the people in the heavens and the heavens, and they also use the mystical tricks to cultivate. ”
"Seven days, I give you seven days, if you can successfully cultivate Xuanqi, then you can become a true cultivator. But if you can't cultivate Xuan Qi, then you are destined to have no chance with the world of cultivators in this life. Did you hear me clearly?"
"Hear me clearly!" the crowd shouted in unison.
"Okay! Seven days later, take the secret and come here again. Gu Huahao looked around at the still solemn crowd, and was just about to announce the disbandment, when an alternative voice suddenly appeared in the crowd:
"My lord, why is it only given seven days? Isn't it three years for someone to step from a quasi-cultivator to a cultivator?"
The entire martial arts training ground instantly fell silent because of this person's inadvertent words, looking at the surprised eyes of the people around him, the person who spoke also felt that he should have touched something terrible, and immediately his face turned red, and he quickly retreated behind the crowd.
Gu Huahao fell silent in a daze, as if his thoughts had flown into the distance.
"Deacon Gu, how can you bother you, the deacon of the Deacon Hall, to do this kind of thing?" Behind him, a middle cultivator from the Zimin Hall walked over.
Gu Huahao shook his head, sighed lightly, and left directly, "It's just right, I'll leave it to you." ”
"This?" the middle cultivator was immediately stunned.
――――――
The mountain springs of several peaks of the Drifting Cloud Sect all converge in the same place, and that is the place called Mingxin Lake.
Mingxin Lake is the only lake in the Drifting Cloud Sect, but due to the steep terrain around it, it is rarely visited.
At this time, I saw a bamboo raft floating on the lake, and on it were four young people.
"We chose to practice the martial art of the Red Lotus Twenty-Seven Style, but the instructor didn't want to teach us, so he insisted that we come here to try our luck. A lean young man hugged his sword and snorted coldly, "I wondered, even if the Red Lotus Twenty-Seven Style is the most difficult martial art, it won't make Shang Xiu helpless." This is for us to practice martial arts or to enjoy the mountains and rivers, not to mention that the scenery here is not good. ”
"What do you know?" a pretty woman next to him glanced at him coldly, "The mentor naturally has his intentions, if my guess is right, Zhang Yuan, the daughter of the Destiny, may live here." ”
"What? Zhang Yuan, the daughter of heaven!"
The lean young man was shocked, and the other two also showed shocked faces, they had heard about the deeds of Ye Xin and Zhang Yuan, the two most dazzling people in the clan.
Among them, Zhang Yuan stepped into the upper cultivation two years ago, and on the day of his breakthrough, he created his own martial arts on the basis of the Red Lotus Twenty-Seven Style, and defeated an eighth-level cultivator in the Deacon Hall with this.
Now two years later, the legend about Zhang Yuan is becoming more and more magical, and some people even say that even the deacon hall master says that Zhang Yuan's strength is unfathomable.
Such a genius is in Mingxin Lake?
