Xu Xiangying saw that the disciples who were watching the ceremony around him had already begun to leave, and when the door master and the elders had not left, he brought Liu Qingyi forward, squeezed to the gray-clothed deacon who was holding the box and whispered a few words.

The gray-robed deacon led the two men to the elders' table and bowed to them.

Lei Zhen motioned for Xu Xiangying to come forward and speak, Xu Xiangying hurriedly trotted up, bowed down and said a call to Lei Zhen and the others.

After a while, I saw Lei Zhen's eyes light up, and he suddenly glanced at Liu Qingyi, who was standing not far away, and said in surprise: "What? Promoted to Tongyuan Realm on your own? Tell him to come and have a look. ”

Xu Xiangying beckoned to Liu Qingyi, and saw Liu Qingyi walking up calmly and calmly, and came to stand in front of the elders' seat.

Lei Zhen swept his body with his divine thoughts, and Liu Qingyi only felt as if his body had been seen through, so he heard a hearty laugh from him: "This is really a blessing to invite the heavens, my Heavenly Beast Sect has added another Tongyuan Realm." When Feng Yan, He Yuanji, Nie Chong and others beside him heard this, they all glanced at Liu Qingyi in front of them with their divine thoughts, and they also looked surprised.

Nie Chong looked at Liu Qingyi, and said in disbelief: "Are you Liu Qingyi from Lanjun?" The one that the fairy beast summoned the civet cat? ”

After mentioning this, Lei Zhen and Feng Yan looked at Liu Qingyi carefully, and both of them remembered that this person was the Tsing Yi disciple who summoned the spirit cat in the previous sect competition, and the look of surprise on his face couldn't help but fade a little.

Seeing Nie Zhong asking, Liu Qingyi bowed down and replied, "It's the disciple." ”

Nie Chong asked again, "Why did you enter the Tongyuan Realm so quickly?" ”

Liu Qingyi replied: "After the disciple ran errands from Juntian City, he accidentally ate a purple lotus flower on the way back to his hometown, and after finding a cold pool to cultivate for a few months, he came out and advanced to the Tongyuan Realm, and the disciple was also a little inexplicable. ”

Before he returned to the door, he had calculated that most of these sect masters and elders were old and sophisticated, and ordinary lies were probably difficult to believe, and the lies needed to have a certain degree of truth and desirability to be effective, based on the purple lotus eaten in the Heavenly Beast Mountain, the story made up was not afraid of being seen through.

How do you know that when he said something, several elders of Nie Chong and the sect master Lei Zhen all looked wonderful, and there was some pity, and the white-bearded old man beside Lei Zhen said: "How can the treasures of heaven and earth be eaten directly, you are also lucky, you can happen to find a cold pool, and use the cold air in the pool to resist the fire of the purple lotus heart." If not, you'd probably have exploded to death by now, turning into a pool of blood. From this point of view, if you can use it to break through to the Tongyuan Realm, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. ”

When the white-bearded old man said this, Lei Zhen, Nie Chong, Feng Yan, He Yuanji and others all nodded again and again, and the six Tsing Yi disciples who had just been filled with Lingtongyuan on the side looked at Liu Qingyi with surprise in their eyes at this moment, and their faces were full of incredulity.

Lei Zhen groaned slightly, and said to the gray-clothed deacon disciple beside him: "Qinghe, you go and get a set of purple-clothed disciple Taoist clothes nameplate." Then he seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head to Liu Qingyi and said, "The surname is Liu?" Willow light clothes? The last time Yoshijun came back, he seemed to have mentioned the name. ”

On the side, Xu Xiangying said: "Door master, Senior Brother Qu came back last time and said that Senior Brother Liu had made great contributions in Juntian City, and it was spread all over our door. ”

Lei Zhen smiled when he heard this: "No wonder I am familiar with the name." Hurriedly called the gray-clothed deacon who was about to receive the order, and ordered again: "Qinghe, you take another purple spirit ring, and I will reward it with three thousand spirit stones." ”

"Slow!" Liu Qingyi raised his eyes to look at Lei Zhen, and said with a look of hope: "If you want to take it, you can take it together, the sect master, the disciple took over the task of exterminating the ghouls in the south kiln last time, and the door still owes me a lot of Lingyuan stones, saying that it will be sent together when I am promoted to the Tongyuan Realm." You see that I am now in the Tongyuan Realm, should I send it to me......"

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Lei Zhen's face was full of disbelief, and the few elders sitting next to him were also a little stunned.

Only Feng Yan's eyes flashed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, I happened to be on duty that day, and I also reported it to the door master afterwards." ”

"When you say this, I seem to have some impressions, how many Lingyuan stones did I owe him at that time?" Lei Zhen pondered.

"At that time, it was said that it was distributed in half, a total of fifty-seven thousand two hundred and five." Feng Yan recalled.

"So much?" Lei Zhen and several elders in front of him exclaimed in unison.

……

Heavenly Beast Hall, the second floor of the conference hall.

Lei Zhen and several elders sat down at the top in turn, and Liu Qingyi and six men and women in purple clothes lined up one after another, like seven lambs waiting to be selected under the gaze of the elders of the sect master.

Liu Qingyi was happy at the moment, one hand gently rubbed the spirit ring on his wrist, and said secretly: "The door is still trustworthy, and finally gave himself a lot of 57,250 spirit yuan stones, although all the rewards for meritorious service on the covenant of Ziyanguo are exempted, but it is only a small head." ”

Just thinking about it, he only heard Lei Zhen clear his throat and said loudly: "According to the practice of my Heavenly Beast Sect, the disciples in the sect can enter the inner gate when they have cultivated to the Tongyuan Realm, and worship under an elder or the master of the sect. In the past, most of the inner disciples worshipped Elder Feng and Elder He, Elder Peng Zhen was busy with the alchemy of the sect and had no intention of accepting more disciples, but Elder Nie was unable to teach the disciples because of his injury. ”

When Lei Zhen said this, he paused, and saw that everyone's eyes were looking at Nie Chong, and said with a hint of joy on his face: "Elder Nie has been injured since he returned from the Eastern Spirit Immortal Kingdom a hundred years ago, and the immortal beast Cloud-winged Bird was killed, and his own realm has slipped, and since then he has been in retreat and cultivating without caring about the world. It wasn't until the eve of this Spirit Selection Ceremony that Elder Nie officially came out, and he rebranded a cloud-winged bird and began to gradually handle the affairs of the sect. ”

When Lei Zhen said this, he smiled kindly at Nie Chong and said: "Brother Nie, on the last Spirit Selection Ceremony, I sent you to Lanjun to recruit disciples, just to let you do a little bit for the sect, and also to ask the major immortal sects in the southern realm to take a look, and the 'Hidden Immortal in the Clouds' who dominated the southern realm back then." ”

Hearing this, Nie Chong got up and bowed to Lei Zhen and said, "Sect Master, I, Nie, have been favored by the sect for many years, and I have made a small contribution to the sect after a hundred years of retreat. If there is something you command, but you are motivated, Nie will never shirk. ”

Lei Zhen also shook his seat and said: "Brother Nie, the situation in the north is unstable and the war is approaching, and Lao Feng and Lao He and I not only have to prepare for the battle in the north, but also teach many disciples under the seat, and it is indeed not enough." Elder Peng was busy with alchemy and had no time to accept disciples. I am afraid that the new Tongyuan Realm disciples will have to bear more on Nie Lao, I have already discussed with Lao Feng and Lao He, and only one person from each of these new disciples will be accepted, and the remaining four will ask Brother Nie to teach them together. ”

Nie Chong clenched his fists and saluted when he heard this: "I should do it, I don't dare to resign, the old man has not accepted apprentices for many years, so I am afraid that I will mistake the children of the sect." ”

Feng Yan smiled on the side: "Brother Nie is too modest. ”

He Yuanji also scolded on the side: "Old Nie, you old dog, you have been comfortable for more than a hundred years, and you still want to be lazy." ”

Nie Chong grinned when he heard this: "Okay, you choose first, and I'll take the remaining four." ”

Lei Zhen said to Feng Yan and He Yuanji: "Lao He, Lao Feng, you should choose first, you can have it." ”

He Yuanji pointed at Xiao Jingyan and said to Nie Chong: "This kid with Fengyun Eagle follow me, Old Nie, you should have no opinion, right?" ”

Nie Chong pursed his lips and said, "I have long known that you are a rare old ghost with an eagle boy, I don't fight with you, this kid is with you." ”

After He Yuanji's election, Feng Yan looked at a few people, his eyes wandered between Fang Rong and Bu Jiu, and finally stopped at Fang Rong's face, and said to Nie Chong: "Old Nie, how about this female disciple surnamed Fang enter my door?" After all, the rest were all male disciples, and it was also inconvenient for such a female disciple to be caught in the middle. Fortunately, my subordinate Manting is also a woman, so I can be with her. ”

Nie Zhong said: "It's okay, let her go with you." ”

Liu Qingyi and the disciples who were not selected, their hearts were like mirrors, Feng and He both chose the disciples who summoned flying beasts among the people to be taken in, and the reasons they said were high-sounding, but they couldn't hide the fact that they favored one over the other.

When it was the turn of the sect master Lei Zhen to choose people, he saw that the faces of those disciples who were not selected were not very good-looking, and several disciples who were next to Bu Gu had already set their eyes on Bu Jiu, and the disciples who were branded with strange beasts in several people were only Bu Jiu except Xiao Jingyan and Fang Rong.

Looking at everyone's almost tacit appearance, Lei Zhen only felt that his face was red, and he hesitated for a long time, and finally did not choose to summon the strange beast Bu Dove, and even Yan Kuan, who ranked first in the sect competition, was skipped by him, and only pointed his finger at Li Gongjun's head lightly, and chose such a person who was neither high nor low to deal with the matter.

Li Gongjun was pleasantly surprised when he saw that he had stumbled into the door master by mistake.

Liu Qingyi glanced at Li Gongjun, who was overjoyed, and thought of his dealings with the Hundred Flowers Immortal Valley in Juntian City, and thought: "This guy has entered the Lei Zhen lineage, and it is probably much more convenient to inquire about the important news in the door." I thought about it like this, but I didn't say anything, just silently calculated in my heart.

Nie Chong glanced at Lei Zhen in some surprise, and turned his head to the remaining four: "You and the other four people will be counted under my Nie Someone's door from today, you can go and pack up and prepare, and come to Tiantiping at three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow to wait for me." ”

After Nie Chong's words were explained, Lei Zhen, Feng Yan, and He Yuanji also arranged their own meeting time for the selected disciples, and then left one by one, and the people standing next naturally dispersed together.
