Private room on the second floor.

I waited for half an hour.

Shopkeeper Qu belatedly walked in, took a sip of spiritual tea and sat down, and said with a smile, "I said something on Deacon Jindan's side, and let Master Shen Fu wait for a long time." ”

Shen Ping hurriedly said, "Shopkeeper Qu is polite, and I didn't wait long in the next place." ”

When Shopkeeper Qu was just about to ask what was the matter, his eyes lit up, "Master Shen's spiritual power is full of spiritual power and mellow breath, this is the completion of Qi training?" ”

"Haha, congratulations, congratulations!"

He seemed to be even happier than Shen Ping.

Shen Ping said helplessly, "Shopkeeper Qu, I am here for this matter, I don't know what specific conditions are required for the assessment of this talisman master?" ”

Several previous conversations.

The shopkeeper Qu didn't say it in detail.

This time, he tried to make a second-order mid-grade talisman seal, and found a problem, so he came over to ask for an understanding, if it was really unattainable, he could only give up and build a foundation.

After all, he is not young.

There can be no further delay.

Shopkeeper Qu didn't respond, but got up with enthusiasm on his face and said, "Master Shen, the conditions involved in the assessment of this special guest qing, Qu only knows a little bit about it, and the general station of the True Treasure Building in Qingyang City is only really clear to the deacon and above, and the assessment has to be applied to the deacon." ”

"Let's go, I'll take you to the deacon."

Shen Ping was stunned and couldn't help but say, "See Deacon Xia?" ”

Above the true treasure building is the deacon.

To be able to become a deacon, the minimum cultivation must be a Jindan real person.

Yunshanfang.

Although he had seen deacons, elders, and even infant elders.

But it was just a face-to-face meeting.

When I arrived in Qingyang City, I was only able to see the deacon, the first-class, the second-class guest, not to mention the deacon elder, even the second-class guest secretary was rare to see, and it was impossible to talk about making friends.

Now I suddenly have to deal with Jindan real people.

Let's be honest.

He was a little nervous.

Shopkeeper Qu said with a smile, "Don't worry, Deacon Xia treats people gently, besides, you are going to apply for the special guest secretary assessment this time, if Deacon Xia knows, he will definitely give his full support, which is a big deal for the general station." ”

See here.

Shen Ping took a deep breath and followed.

Jindan real people are rarely in the real treasure building.

However, there was something in the building today, and the shopkeeper Qu had delayed coming late because of this.

Therefore, Deacon Xia happened to be in the backyard wing.

Even if it's not there, of course.

Shopkeeper Qu also took Shen Ping to walk more at most.

The entrance of the wing.

Jin Dan's mana aura surged to his face.

"Deacon Xia."

"What?"

A gentle voice came from inside the door.

Shopkeeper Qu didn't say anything, but gave Shen Ping a look.

Shen Ping hurriedly stepped forward and puffed up his voice, "The junior Zhenbaolou third-class Fu Master Keqing, Shen Ping, came here today to apply for the special guest secretary assessment......

The voice has not yet fallen.

Deacon Xia's figure was already standing at the door, his mana aura was constricted, and his eyes swept towards Shen Ping, "I know you, the talisman assessment conducted in Yunshan Fang, you can pass the qi training period, and the rune level is not bad, but do you know what is the minimum condition for applying for the talisman special assessment?" ”

The last voice exploded in Shen Ping's ears.

Shen Ping's own spiritual power was running rapidly, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, suppressing the restless spiritual power and slowly saying in a deep voice, "Senior Qu once told me that you need to be able to make a second-order lower grade talisman seal during the qi training period!" ”

As he spoke, he released a trace of the foundation building period divine sense.

Deacon Xia suddenly smiled, "Come in." ”

The two walked into the wing room back and forth.

And the shopkeeper Qu still stood respectfully outside the door.

"Sit."

"Xie Xia senior!"

Shen Ping half sat on the chair, leaning forward slightly, with a respectful face.

The person in front of him is a real person from Jindan.

And being able to serve as a deacon at the general station, ordinary Jin Dan can't do it at all.

Deacon Xia said in a gentle voice, "Shen Keqing, you not only know the minimum requirements for the special assessment, but also have the foundation building divine sense during the Qi cultivation period, I think you can make a second-order lower grade talisman seal, but the conditions required to really pass the assessment are much harsher. ”

Shen Ping arched his hand, "Please also ask Senior Xia to inform." ”

Deacon Xia said bluntly, "Every special guest is the core of my True Treasure Building, so all applicants will first undergo a qualification assessment, and the evaluators need five Jindan real people, three of whom must have the ability of a second-order high-grade talisman master." ”

"After confirming your qualifications, the headquarters will send Elder Yuanying to escort you to a location, where you need to take three assessments, and if you pass all three times, you will get the Superior Guest Wood Card, but this is only temporary......"

Shen Ping was secretly speechless when he heard it, although he guessed that the special assessment would definitely be very strict, but he didn't expect it to be so complicated, and the qualification assessment alone would need to be assessed by Jindan real people.

It's time to come.

He vaguely felt that this special guest was really not simple.

"Shen Keqing, if you have any doubts, it's okay to say it."

Deacon Xia said seriously.

The general station of Zhenbaolou has been stationed in Qingyang City for so many years, and it is not that there are no applicants for special guest visits, but more than ninety percent have not even passed the qualification assessment, and as for the further three assessments, none of them have succeeded.

Even so.

Every time I met an applicant, Deacon Xia would tell me everything in detail.

Shen Ping raised his eyes and asked, "Senior Xia, I don't know what kind of conditions are required for this qualification, as well as the subsequent three assessments, such as the number of second-order lower grade talisman seals, and the efficiency ......?"

Deacon Xia shook his head slightly, "I can't know the content of the assessment, but I know that it seems to be different every time." ”

Shen Ping couldn't help but be disappointed in his heart, but soon asked again, "Senior Xia, how long will the assessment last, I won't hide it from you, the younger generation is old, if it is more than sixty, I am afraid it will be difficult to build a foundation." ”

Deacon Xia glanced at Shen Ping.

Almost instantly.

Shen Ping felt a divine sense attack, his face was calm, and his heart was slightly nervous.

"It's really not too young."

"But it's fine."

"As far as I know, the assessment lasts for up to two years, and if it goes well, it only takes one year, or even half a year."

Deacon Xia smiled and said, "What other questions does Shen Keqing have?" ”

Shen Ping stood up and bowed, "The juniors know everything, thank you seniors for your patience." ”

"So do you want to apply for the special guest qualification examination now?"

Hear this.

Shen Ping said solemnly, "Yes! ”

Deacon Xia stroked his palms and said, "Okay, you go back and wait patiently, I will arrange this matter immediately, and when the other Jindan assessors reply, I will let Qu Daoyou summon you, at most a month, I hope you will make full preparations during this time." ”

……

The entrance of the real treasure building.

The shopkeeper sent it out in person.

"Master Shen."

"The special guest secretary has a great relationship, and even this qualification assessment must be taken seriously."

"If you can actually pass the qualification, you will benefit immensely."

Hear the sound.

Shen Ping arched his hand and responded, "Xie Qu senior reminds." ”

Return to the small courtyard of Huiquan Lane.

The wives and concubines have not yet returned from Nancheng.

He sat alone in the hall and closed his eyes and recalled what Deacon Xia said, and a wave of enthusiasm slowly rose in his heart, he had worked hard for ten years of cold and summer, he had never slackened, nor had he hesitated, even if he was tired and tired, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Frost, rain and snow.

Sun and wind.

There was not a moment of shaking the heart of the aisle.

That's why we have such a level of runes.

And one more month is the time when fire refines real gold!

Suddenly opened his eyes.

Shen Ping's sleeve robe flicked out of the hall and into the talisman room.

Regardless of whether you can jump into the dragon gate or not.

He had to be fully prepared.

……

The days passed.

In addition to double cultivation, Shen Ping spent the rest of his time in the talisman room, allowing himself to maintain his proficiency in talisman seals at all times.

And so a month has come in the blink of an eye.

It's the end of the day.

He first prayed for blessings and meditated, then changed into a new embroidered plain white robe and stood in the talisman room, while his wives and concubines carefully arranged his sideburns and eyebrows, cleaned up any blemishes on his face, and then checked every texture of the robe several times.

The rest of the time.

The wives and concubines stayed by Shen Ping's side to accompany them.

Yu Yan was guarding the gate of the small courtyard.

They know that today is the most important day for their husbands.

The sky gradually turned white.

The morning dew spits fragrance on the tips of the young leaves of the jujube tree in the small courtyard.

When a flash of morning light pierced through the clouds and sprinkled into the small courtyard.

Shen Ping's teleportation talisman shook slightly.

The voice of the shopkeeper soon sounded.

"The qualification of the special guest begins."

"Please ask Master Shen Fu to come to the True Treasure Building for assessment!"

Shen Ping, who maintained his standing posture, took a deep breath.

Step out of the talisman room.

The wives and concubines followed.

The moment he stepped out of the courtyard.

"Husband!"

Wang Yun shouted to Shen Ping.

Go back.

Suddenly, I saw Yu Yan, Wang Yun, Bai Yuying, and Luo Qing clenching their hands into fists and waving towards him.

"Come on!"

He silently added in his heart.

Then he smiled and walked resolutely forward.

……

Zhenbao Building.

In the past, there were many monks in and out of the threshold, but today it is deserted.

Shopkeeper Qu stood at the door and waited.

Seeing a familiar figure not far away, he smiled and hurriedly greeted him.

"Qu senior."

"How can I ask you to greet you personally, I really don't dare to do it!"

Shen Ping smiled bitterly again and again.

Shopkeeper Qu shook his head, "Master Shen, you only need to remember one thing today, pass the assessment seriously and with all your might, and don't take anything else to heart." ”

Finally, he added, "Don't be influenced. ”

"Let's go!"

Shopkeeper Qu took Shen Ping across the threshold.

Wow.

Almost instantly.

Dao Dao's eyes converged.

There was not the slightest breath, and there was no spiritual pressure.

But Shen Ping felt the heavy pressure like a mountain.

The third-class guest secretaries stood on both sides.

He looked at him with a smile on his face.

Following the shopkeeper Qu all the way over, as soon as he stepped into the backyard, the pressure suddenly increased by 10,000 times.

Second-class guest secretary.

First class guest.

Even Jindan Zhenren Xia Deacon was standing at the door of the small courtyard hall.

There was curiosity and laughter in their eyes, but also confusion and disdain.

All kinds of emotions are superimposed.

Although there was no breath, there was not the slightest sound.

But this kind of quietness makes Shen Ping's every step feel like stepping into the sea of sword mountains and fire.

Qu shopkeeper leads in front.

But Shen Ping understood what the other party's words meant before.

Don't be affected.

In the face of this silent pressure.

How could he, a Qi cultivator, not be affected.

"No one."

"None of them are human."

Shen Ping kept hinting in his heart, he looked at the shopkeeper Qu, and couldn't help but secretly say that it would be good if it was Mu Yan.

Walked to the door of the hall with difficulty.

Deacon Xia said with a smile, "Let's go in." ”

The shopkeeper stood next to him and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please.

Shen Ping nodded and stepped in.

Unexpectedly, there was a beautiful woman sitting in the hall, with a shallow smile on the corner of her lips, wearing a brownish purple round-necked silver silk cloud brocade robe, and her delicate and enchanting figure was undoubtedly highlighted.

She stood up and walked a few steps, her round silhouette trembling slightly, "Shen Keqing, I am in charge of this special guest qualification assessment, and I will be by your side throughout the whole process, if you have any questions, you can ask." ”

"Come with me."

As she spoke, her waist twisted, and there was a more majestic roundness under her black hair.

Shen Ping followed unhurriedly.

His eyes fell on the round material and looked closely, and the tension in his heart quickly dissolved.

He smiled with relief.

Coming to the second room on the left side of the hall, the furnishings are almost exactly the same as the last time the third-class guest secretary was assessed.

The beautiful woman stopped and turned sideways, and the smile on her charming face seemed to be a little more.

"Shen Keqing."

"There are three second-order rune seal materials on the jade table, you just need to make them successfully."

"This is just the first step."

Listen to the beautiful woman.

Shen Ping looked at the jade table.

He was familiar with these three materials, which were the Armor Spirit Rune, the Thunder Light Rune, and the Falling Flame Rune.

But only in three copies.

That meant he had to get it right the first time.

"Senior, is there a time limit?"

"Nope."

"You just need to make it right to get through this first step."

Shen Ping nodded and walked to the jade table.

He closed his eyes for a moment.

Then meditate and pray again.

When he lifted the talisman pen, he did not hesitate to bury his head in making talismans.

To the right of the hall.

Five Jindan real people sat in a room.

They looked at the picture and showed a little surprise, in addition to testing the applicant's talisman level, the qualification assessment of the special guest secretary also needs to do some simple tests on the applicant's heart.

From the moment you step on the threshold of the True Treasure Building, the mental assessment begins.

In the face of a second-class, first-class guest who is higher than his own cultivation strength, that invisible pressure is difficult for ordinary people to bear, even tenacious people will also have pressure and need to adjust their mental state, but this one in front of him is quite fast.

But no one spoke.

They watched carefully.

The level of mental nature is passed, but the next talisman is not so easy.

Because no one can guarantee that all of them will be made in one go, and there are only three materials in front of him, even a second-order middle-grade talisman master in the foundation building period may not be able to pass safely.

So this step requires both strength and luck.

Feel the best in the hand.

Then it will be successful.

……

Shen Ping had been making talisman seals for a month, and at this moment, when he was sketching the first spirit pattern, the habit that was so familiar that it was almost engraved in the blood of the muscles came with the talisman pen.

He has no distractions.

There are only talismans in front of me.

This moment.

He seemed to have come to the scene of the golden light breakthrough, standing in front of the jade table and making talisman seals day and day, no matter whether he succeeded or failed, all that was left was the talisman seal.

The guests in the small courtyard all left.

But there are still some parts that didn't go, and sat in the side room to drink tea.

"The last qualification test was more than 200 years ago."

"It's a pity that although that one got the qualification, he still didn't pass!"

"Special Guest Secretary...... This Wei State, Jin State, Yue State and other twelve countries stationed, there has not been a single one in the past thousand years, and it is difficult to get it! ”

"Yes, even this qualification is extremely difficult."

Several second-class guests talked to each other.

They then looked at the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Qu shook his head and smiled, "Fellow Daoists, don't look at me, whether Shen Keqing can pass or not, Qu doesn't know!" ”

Someone couldn't help but say, "If it passes, the shopkeeper Qu will have a good relationship in advance." ”

The other guests laughed meaningfully.

The shopkeeper Qu said, "It's just an acquaintance, tea tasting, tea tasting, it is estimated that it will take a few days!" ”

"I'll wait for nothing, wait."

……

Inside the house.

The beautiful woman standing behind Shen Ping was more and more surprised in her eyes.

She really didn't expect that the Qi Cultivation Talisman Master in front of her would be able to enter the state so quickly.

When entering the house first.

Naturally, she noticed a different kind of gaze, even a burning gaze.

That moment.

The beautiful woman decided in her heart that the applicant would fail this time.

But now the first Thunder Light Talisman has only five spirit patterns left.

Especially the other party's control over the rune path is really strong, from beginning to end his rune pen has not slowed down, obviously the applicant has already been proficient in making this thunder light rune.

Moment.

Shen Ping put away the talisman pen.

The complex spiritual pattern circuit of the Thunder Light Talisman flickered in an instant, and the special rune paper and blood ink reacted rapidly and fused with the spirit pattern.

The first one was a success!

"Congratulations!"

When Shen Ping was taking the pill.

The beautiful woman said with a smile.

"Thank you."

Shen Ping closed his eyes and replied.

And the room on the right.

After seeing the first thunder light talisman successfully put down the pen.

Finally there was a sound in the room.

"Not bad."

"Okay."

"Okay."

Soon it was quiet again.

And after Shen Ping's spiritual power and spirit were completely recovered, he didn't rush to write, but stood up and walked around the room.

The beautiful woman smiled at the corner of her lips, and secretly said that she was still nervous, but she quickly noticed that the afterglow of the Qi Trainer was once again aimed at her brown-purple dress, especially in the rounded silhouette for several more looks.

She was both amused and speechless.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to remind him to focus, the afterglow moved away.

Soon.

Shen Ping came to the jade table again and worked hard to make talismans.

For the second material, he chose the Armor Spirit Rune.

Despite being made many times.

But the difficulty of the armor spirit rune is much higher than that of the thunder light rune, and the probability of failure is not low.

However, Shen Ping, who did not have the slightest pressure, waved the talisman pen with a relaxed expression, and quickly sketched the spirit pattern on the rune paper.

Time passed quietly.

The second armor spirit rune was successfully made in one go!

Inside the house on the right.

The five Jindan real people showed a touch of surprise on their faces one after another.

The armor spirit rune was completed in one go.

It's so precious!

"Good!"

"Pretty good."

"The heart is okay."

"Looks like this first step is fine!"

"Indeed."

There were two more voices in the room than the first time.

Then it was quiet again.

……

Inside the small courtyard wing.

The waiting Keqing still had patience, and even their faces showed anticipation.

Because the longer the time, the closer the person who is being assessed is to success.

But none of them showed anything.

It's still early after all.

……

The third part of the Falling Flame Charm is much easier.

Although Shen Ping didn't do it in one go like the Armor Spirit Fu again, it took nearly half less time than the Thunder Light Rune.

When the spirit pattern flickered and disappeared on the rune paper.

The beautiful woman's voice sounded, "Congratulations, congratulations to Shen Keqing for passing the first step!" ”

Shen Ping breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and saluted solemnly, "Thank you, senior!" ”

The beautiful woman was stunned, and reminded with a dumb smile: "Shen Keqing doesn't need to worry, first recover the spiritual power, the second step is more difficult." ”

Shen Ping nodded, quickly took the pill, closed his eyes, and meditated.

Three days have passed since then.

He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the beautiful woman, "Senior, the second step can begin!" ”

The beautiful woman's face showed a charming smile, and she waved her palm lightly.

The jade table in the house disappears.

Immediately after that, another jade table was displayed.

"Shen Keqing."

"The second step requires you to make a special sigil."

"It doesn't matter how many times you fail this time, you just need to succeed in the end."

……

Finally boarded!! Two in one will not be separated.
