Chapter 20: Sectarian Trials
Su Xi returned to Penglai Mountain and found that Lin Qing still hadn't returned. She didn't care, without Lin Qing, it was more conducive to her to do things.
It took so many runes before, of course, it needs to be replenished in time. Otherwise, the next time you encounter danger, there is no way to deal with it.
She looked at so many talismans in Lin Qing's room, and a series of black lines appeared on her head.
Since Lin Qing can draw such a powerful talisman seal, as long as he takes it out and sells it, not to mention the rich one, he will not end up in such a dilapidated state.
Shaking his head helplessly, Su Xi was quickly attracted by the various talismans in the room.
After a few casual glances, she gave up her pick. Directly opened the big sack and stuffed the talisman seal in front of him.
The rune seal drawn by Lin Qing is extraordinary, even if he gets the first-level rune seal, he will not suffer.
Since Lin Qing, the master, is extremely irresponsible, then she can only figure out her own way.
After Su Xi searched for the talisman seal, sorted out the scene a little, and turned around and went back to the room.
After returning to the room, she sorted and put the talismans she got according to the talisman canons taught by Lin Qing, so that she could use them in time in case of danger in the future.
After sorting out the rune seals, Su Xi found that he was lucky, and there were many third-level runes mixed in the pile of rune seals.
The three levels of runes are spiritual, and they require special techniques and mantras to be activated.
After reading the book in the room for two days, Su Xi figured out all the third-level talisman seals. As soon as the thought in her heart relaxed, she suddenly felt a sore back.
Just as she stood up and wanted to move, she suddenly saw a thousand paper cranes floating in from the window.
As soon as Su Xi came into contact with the paper crane, a warm voice came from the paper crane.
After listening to the words, Su Xi suddenly realized, but his brows furrowed into a line.
In the transmission, it was instructed that in the afternoon, a big competition of the disciples of the younger generation of disciples below the Jindan period of the five major sects would be held. All eligible disciples must gather in the square to participate. As the only disciple of Penglai Mountain, she naturally couldn't run away.
Knowing that he couldn't escape, Su Xi had no choice but to simply pack up and walk towards the square at the gate of the Five Great Immortal Mountains.
Because she couldn't fly yet, when she walked to the square, there were already many people in the square at this time. In the dense crowd, many people were talking in low voices with the people around them.
"Did you know that although the difficulty of this trial is very high, the reward for the winner is far greater than before?"
"Yes, I heard that in addition to being able to select ground-level exercises in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, this time you can also enter the Tianyue Pool I Ching to wash the marrow, and when the time comes, it will not only be able to improve your cultivation, but also reduce the obstacles to cultivating your inner demons."
"Yes, it's a pity that this time the participants are also very good, and it will be even more difficult to get a good ranking."
……
Su Xi heard the words of the people around him, and learned more about this trial, and made a decision in his heart.
She has never been a rigid person, since there are shortcuts to take in cultivation, fools don't take them. The history books never focus on the process, but only on the final result.
Su Xi desperately wanted to regain his strength and take revenge as soon as possible.
After walking around, I saw the location of Penglai Mountain and began to walk over. Just as she was standing up, she suddenly noticed that everyone was looking at her with surprised eyes.
Everyone is curious, it has been almost a hundred years since anyone from Penglai Mountain appeared, why someone will participate this time.
Gu Li, who was standing on the high platform, looked at Su Xi, and the coldness in his eyes was even stronger. Su Xi still has the identity of a disciple of Penglai, so he can't be blamed. In this competition, Su Xi will definitely die.
On the square, there were suddenly 12 bells of Qingyue, and then an old man with gray hair and wearing a Taoist robe flew over from the air and landed smoothly on the high platform.
When everyone saw the old man appear, they knelt on the ground with a look of adoration.
Seeing this, although Su Xi didn't like this form of kneeling, he could only kneel on the ground according to the local customs.
In addition to being the head of Shu Mountain, Mengxu Daoist is also the mountain master of the Five Great Immortal Mountains within a hundred years, and has the right to command the Five Great Immortal Mountains.
He glanced at the disciples in the square and said, "The rules of this competition are still the same as before, all sect disciples must pass the three levels, and the last disciple who wins is the first place in the competition at this time......"
The voice of the head of the dream void road was not loud, but it could be heard clearly in every corner of the square.
After he finished talking about the rules of the game, he nodded to the people around him and signaled that the game could start.
After receiving instructions from the head of the Dream Void Dao, a slightly chubby man stepped forward. He didn't talk any nonsense, and after reciting some complicated incantations in his mouth, he punched a spell in his hand.
A red ball of light appeared on his finger and landed in the square ahead.
As the red light fell, there was a buzz in the sky above the square. Immediately after, a transparent, rippling hole of light appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing the light hole appear, the chubby man said expressionlessly: "Everyone enters from the light hole in front of them, and if a pillar of incense does not come out in time, it will automatically be counted as losing." ”
When everyone heard that there was a time limit, they naturally didn't want to waste it, so they walked in without hesitation.
No one in the light cave knows what will happen, so they must cherish time, otherwise they will be eliminated because of lack of time, which will make people angry to death.
As soon as everyone walked into the light hole, their situation in the light hole was immediately projected on the square, making it easy for everyone to observe.
Immortal cultivators, in addition to talent, are more important than their state of mind. If you don't have a strong enough state of mind, you can't go far at all.
Therefore, this trial is to test a person's state of mind. According to a person's heart, the trial will automatically conjure up the scene that a person fears the most.
Su Xi didn't want to be eliminated in the first round, so he hurriedly walked in.
As Su Xi walked into the cave, Gu Li's gaze did not leave for half a minute. He had no way to do anything at this level, so he could only start praying for Su Xi in his heart, hoping that she could survive.
After all, if he wants Su Xi to fail too early, then he still needs to waste his head thinking about how to deal with Su Xi later.
In the secret realm, Su Xi saw the boundless starry sky, and his body felt a familiar sense of weightlessness, as if he had returned to the previous interstellar world.
"Senior sister." Behind him, a familiar shout was heard.
Su Xi turned around when he heard this, and when he saw that familiar face, his heart, which had already been trained to be calm and waveless, fluctuated again.
She was seriously injured at the time, and it was Wen Chen who took the risk to save her. Later, in order to treat her injuries, Wen Chen sold his body and obtained medical resources......
appeared one after another, making her feel so kind in her heart.
"Xiaowen." Su Xi looked at Wen Chen, and for the first time in so long, a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.
Wen Chen took baby fat, and there was a sweet dimple at the corner of his mouth when he laughed. At this time, she grinned and grabbed Su Xi's arm and sprinkled coquettishly, "Senior sister, go back with me, I asked Mr. Liu for something good, I believe you can use it." ”
Looking at the smile on Wen Chen's face, Su Xi's face turned ugly.
She knew that although Mr. Liu was sanctimonious on the surface, he was actually a scumbag who deceived women's feelings. Now that he is so good to Wen Chen, he must be hungry for Wen Chen's body.
Now that she understands what kind of person Mr. Liu is, of course she has to protect Wen Chen. However, she knew very well that she couldn't remind Wen Chen directly, otherwise it would affect the relationship between the two of them.
In the previous life, she directly exposed Mr. Liu's true face, but not only did she not exchange Wen Chen's gratitude, but also made Wen Chen more confused by those people, and finally drugged herself, causing her to lose her combat effectiveness and die in Huangquan......
"Okay, I'll go back with you." Su Xi patted Wen Chen's head, took her hand and walked home.
Back at home, on the table, there was a black wooden box. There was a talisman on top of the wooden box, and there was a faint light flickering on the talisman seal. In the air, there was a smell that seemed to be burning.
Smelling this smell, Su Xi's face changed, and he looked at Wen Chen suspiciously, "This is?" ”
