Chapter 21: Is This the Tenth Peak?
!!!
"Big Brother !!"
Sikong Xuan looked at the stumbling block on his way to accepting apprentices, and opened his mouth to glare at Wu Fa.
"Hehe, senior brother, don't tease the little junior brother." Lu Yan glanced at Sikong Xuan, suddenly thought of something, and laughed softly.
At the same time, the people present, except for Wu Fa, Sikong Xuan and Lu Li, all received Lu Yan's transmission at the same time.
"Senior brother, you are so bad, you bully the little junior brother every day."
Xu Qing also opened her mouth softly.
"That's right, senior brother, why are you like this, you always do something to destroy the feelings of your senior brother." Jiang Yanyin echoed compassionately.
"You ???"
Wu Fa looked at the people who quickly defected, his face was heartbroken, and at the same time, he was a little puzzled.
Why did these people who wanted to accept Lu Li suddenly turn against each other?
But Wu Fa is also worthy of being the person in charge of the meritorious peak of Senluo Mountain, and seeing that he can't win Lu Li, he hurriedly changed his words and said:
"Haha, in fact, the senior brother just wanted to make a joke with the little junior brother, and you know that my father doesn't know when he will die......"
Hearing this, Lu Li couldn't complain for a while.
And looking at Sikong Xuan in front of him, Lu Li hugged his fists and smiled: "I don't know if Sikong seniors are willing to accept juniors as apprentices?" ”
"What do you think?"
Sikong Xuanyan smiled at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, and asked Lu Li rhetorically.
"The juniors feel that the seniors may have snickered in their hearts that they could receive such a good apprentice from the juniors."
Lu Li said with a smile.
"Indeed."
Sikong Xuan nodded seriously.
Such a sincere reaction made Lu Li a little overwhelmed.
"Okay, let's all disperse, junior brother, you go back and take Lu Li to familiarize yourself with our Senluo Mountain, and then we will discuss when the apprenticeship ceremony will be held in two days, and I will have to talk to my father about this matter later."
Wu Fa clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to leave.
"Let's go, I'll take you to get to know you one by one later."
Sikong Xuan first said hello to everyone, and then took Lu Li away.
It's just that the two didn't know that after Sikong Xuan and Lu Li left one after the other, the people who had already dispersed returned to the main hall again.
……
Following behind Sikong Xuan, looking at the surrounding palaces, pavilions, waterfalls and lakes, Lu Li suddenly had some doubts.
"Master, are we still in Senluo Mountain?"
"Do you think Senluo Mountain is the area at the top of the mountain?"
Hearing this, Sikong Xuan opened his mouth to explain: "Actually, the place we are in now is the real Senluo Mountain, which is constructed by an independent secret realm obtained by our mountain master when he traveled to the mainland with Li Cangqian's predecessors when he was young. ”
Secret realm of independence?
"Master, what is that secret realm?"
Lu Li couldn't remember how many times he had heard the word secret realm, and at this moment, he had the opportunity to hurriedly ask.
"The practice is divided into nine steps, namely the upper three steps, the middle three steps and the lower three steps, of which the next three steps are Qi training, foundation building, and Jindan; The middle three steps are divided into Yuan Infant, Transformation God, and God Refining; The first three steps are to smell the Tao, ask the Tao, and plant the Tao.
And the secret realm is the product left behind by the monks above the realm of the gods. ”
"Then Master, what kind of cultivation are you now?" Lu Li nodded thoughtfully, and then asked again.
"As a teacher, he is currently in the late Yuan infancy."
Sikong Xuan said flatly.
"What about the masters?"
"Your master is now in the late stage of refining gods."
"Then why is your cultivation so much different from that of the master?"
"Because of an accident."
"Huh?" Lu Li was a little puzzled.
"You'll find out later."
Sikong Xuan didn't explain, just sighed, showing the story.
Then he didn't say anything more.
Lu Li could see that he was lacking in interest, and seemed to be hiding something on his mind.
So I didn't ask any more questions.
The Ten Peaks of Senluo are actually ten peaks that are far apart.
And Lu Li and Sikong Xuan were at the second peak at this time, that is, the range of the meritorious peak held by Wu Fa.
So the two of them need to go down the mountain first, and then Edgeworth will go to the tenth peak.
"Calm down on the flying sword, don't think about it, if it's your first time with Edgeworth, try not to look down."
Sikong Xuan summoned the flying sword, looked at Lu Li and admonished.
"The disciple knows, and the master is relieved."
Lu Li's eyes lit up as he glanced at the flying sword at Sikong Xuan's feet, patting his chest and saying.
"Okay, come up then." Sikong Xuan nodded.
As Lu Li stepped on the flying sword, Sikong Xuan's heart moved, the spiritual power in his body flowed, and the flying sword under the feet of the two of them instantly soared into the sky.
Lu Li looked at the flowing clouds on both sides, and couldn't help but secretly glance down at his feet.
Then when he saw the pavilions the size of his thumb and the flying sword he stepped on no more than the width of a palm, Lu Li couldn't help but be dizzy for a while.
And then there's the nervousness that comes after the excitement.
"Calm down, if you can't fall, if you're really afraid, you can grab my fairy robe."
Sikong Xuan sensed the nervousness of Lu Li behind him and said softly.
Lu Li nodded, stretched out his hand to grab Sikong Xuanxian robe, and then asked curiously, "Master, why can you stand so steady?" ”
"Because I've been studying for a long time." Sikong Xuan's voice came calmly from the front.
"Do you still have to learn Edgeworth's flight?" Lu Li asked puzzled.
He always thought that as long as the realm was reached, he could fly with the sword.
"Edgeworth has to be learned, flying has to be learned, and Edgeworth has to be learned."
Sikong Xuan understood what Lu Li was thinking, and opened his mouth to explain.
"Edgeworth Flying looks simple, but it actually involves the nested use of many spells, including the control of flying swords, the continuous use of wind protection, the use of aerial techniques, and the caster's anti-interference training."
Listening to Sikong Xuan's explanation, Lu Li nodded enlightenedly.
This is the benefit of having a teacher.
Teacher, preach and teach to solve doubts.
If Lu Li didn't know anything before and could only rely on his own guesses, then now he has someone to rely on.
Although he and Sikong Xuan have only met for a day, fate can only be summed up in four words.
"Master, can I ask why you wanted to take me as an apprentice before?"
In the middle of his thoughts, Lu Li suddenly asked.
"Why?"
Sikong Xuan paused for a moment when he heard this, and then a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
"Because I think you're funny."
"Is that the reason?" Lu was puzzled.
"Isn't that enough?"
"I thought that you saw my qualifications and potential, so you came up with the idea of taking me as an apprentice."
Lu left the mouth.
"Qualifications and potential are not worth paying attention to for people like me, they will only make your path easier at the beginning, but in the future, what you value is your mind and resources, so this is also the reason why your master has been looking for apprentices for more than a thousand years and has not found a suitable candidate.
There is no shortage of talented people in the world, but most of them will not become prominent monks, but most of them will die due to many accidents along the way.
Therefore, for cultivators above the Yuan Infant, accepting disciples no longer values talent, after all, relying only on talent, 100,000 geniuses may not be able to cultivate a Yuan Infant realm. ”
Sikong Xuan shook his head and said.
"That, Master, it's my first time as an apprentice, if there's something wrong, you can bear more." Lu Li suddenly spoke.
Sikong Xuanyan heard that the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, "It's okay, I'm also the first time to be a human master, and I have no experience." ”
As his words fell, Lu Li noticed that the height of the flying sword began to drop, and hurriedly looked ahead.
But not far ahead, half of the bare mountain peaks jumped into view.
Why is it said to be half a mountain?
Because this mountain peak is as if someone has cut it halfway up the mountain.
Only a flat and bare cross-section remains.
In the cross-section, among the gravel, stands a wooden house with a personal artistic style.
"This is the tenth peak."
Sikong Xuan stopped the flying sword in front of the wooden house, then turned to look at Lu Lidao.
"Because of some accidents, I am the only one on the tenth peak at the moment, and you are the second person.
In addition, tomorrow I will prepare you a waist card for the identity of the deputy peak master.
When the time comes, it will be more convenient for you to go to other peaks. ”
"This is the tenth peak?"
Lu Li looked up at Sikong Xuan, and then glanced at the towering giant peak not far away, as well as the strange flowers and plants and streamer fairies on the giant peak, which was a little difficult to accept.
"Yes, because of some accidents, the tenth peak became like this."
Sikong Xuan said with some embarrassment.
"Could it be that the enemy invaded, and our tenth peak bore the brunt of it, and then suffered heavy losses?"
Two major battles instantly appeared in Lu Li's mind, and the scene of many flying swords floating behind Sikong Xuan's back and fighting with the enemy in the air.
"It's not ......"
Sikong Xuan's face was even more embarrassed.
"It's just that I wanted to cultivate the mountain spirit of the tenth peak mountain range on a whim before, but I failed, and then I had to cut down the upper half of the mountain range that had become a demon......"
