The divine soul perception floated to an infinite height, Du Heng came to the Dao Palace again, sat on the lotus platform, and with a fixed gaze, he saw the picture of the hundred zhang around the inn where he lived.

A figure appeared in the picture, and a series of spiritual lights of different colors lit up on the bodies of these figures, which represented his qualification potential.

"In the top 30 people list, there are already twenty people besides me." Du Heng looked at the scene in the picture and said secretly, "Among them, there are fourteen white, five cyan, and one purple......

"Sure enough, even if they are in the top 30 on the list, there are very few people whose talents can reach cyan, Senior Brother Xubai and Senior Sister Xuyue are cyan, Chu Jiu and Senior Brother Zhong are also cyan, and there is one person I don't know.

"The only purple color is actually Hui Zhi, the little monk of Liantai Mountain, which means that he may have the possibility of breaking through to the realm of the Divine Gate in the future?"

Three years ago, Hui Zhi had followed his elders to Jinxia Mountain and had a brief exchange with Du Heng, although there was no contact with him later, but it could be regarded as an acquaintance.

"Huizhi can be used as an alternative, but he still has to figure out his attitude towards the court before making a decision."

Du Heng selected a person and was about to withdraw from the Dao Palace, but suddenly saw an extremely dazzling golden light enter the picture displayed in the Dao Palace.

"What's this, it's so dazzling, golden legend?!"

Then, he looked at it fixedly, and immediately laughed again, "It turned out to be Senior Sister Cheng, well, with her qualifications, it is normal to have golden potential qualifications." ”

At this time, Du Heng had already seen the figure shining with golden spiritual light.

It was Cheng Yujun.

She can be called a natural swordsman, she has shown extremely dazzling qualifications since she was a child, and she is also favored by countless people, thinking that she can become a female sword god like Heavenly Sword in the future.

"Do you want to pull Senior Sister Cheng in?" Du Heng fell into deep thought, and said secretly, "With Senior Sister Cheng's qualifications and strength, it can definitely help me a lot in my future plans."

"This should also be regarded as an opportunity for her, with the foundation of the Sword Pavilion, after her Divine Gate Realm, I am afraid it will be difficult to bring her any improvement."

After thinking about it for a while, he made a decision to pull Cheng Yujun into the Dao Palace.

"It's best not to pull too many people for the first time, two or three will do." Du Heng's eyes closed slightly, and the thoughts in his mind turned, "If Huizhi is not suitable, I will pull Senior Sister Cheng in first, and then randomly pull a golden qualification from the unknown fog area in."

"If Hui Zhi is suitable, then add one more him, a total of three people, and three people are enough in the initial stage, and they can expand and do a lot of things.

"Next, it depends on what Tian Xing wants to do at this day's banquet."

……

Nanshan County, Zhongzhou.

In the ancient Zhou Dynasty, it was once a prosperous city famous all over the world, with an endless stream of merchants and pedestrians, people in the street market rubbing shoulders one after another, and almost every shop along the street was prosperous.

But now it is deserted, and there are few pedestrians on the spacious streets, let alone shops, not even a hawker walking the streets.

If it weren't for the occasional armoured soldier walking through the streets, it would almost make one suspect that this was a dead city.

In fact, this Nanshan county town is indeed not far from the dead city.

Since sixteen years ago, Chen Ju usurped Zhou as emperor, the country name Da Zhao, Jianyuan Huangjia, and the former emperor Li Wei was demoted to Nanshan Gong and placed under house arrest here, the once prosperous scene no longer exists.

The imperial court did not allow any play, singing, dancing, singing and other things that were considered amusement, nor did it allow merchants to sell goods into the city, and even the travel of ordinary people was greatly restricted.

This makes it completely difficult for many people to adapt.

But it didn't take long for the news that the former crown prince Li Yin tried to assassinate the emperor Chen Ju, the situation in Nanshan County became more severe, and the people were directly ordered not to go out.

Moreover, this situation is not just a day or two, but it goes on forever, and no one knows when it will end, and it seems that there will never be an end.

After a long time, naturally more and more people couldn't hold on, and people began to flee from Nanshan County, and it became more and more intense, and it became more and more out of control.

By now, this Nanshan county town has become such a lifeless and lifeless appearance.

And in the middle of this "dead city", a very luxurious mansion was built.

Whether it is masonry tiles or purlin pillars and beams, all of them are of the highest quality, and the carvings are exquisite, and all the standards are reproduced according to the royal palace of the old Zhou Dynasty.

This is the place where the Great Zhao court put the former emperor Li Wei under house arrest.

In the beginning, Li Wei could still walk around the garden.

But as Li Yin's failure to assassinate Chen Ju was exposed, he was ordered to stay in his bedroom in the future, and from that time on, he had completely lost all his freedom.

In the early morning of the second day of the third month of the sixth year of Chonghe, when the sky was just cloudy, Li Wei woke up from his sleep, got up and pushed open the window, first looked at the outside scene, and then looked in the direction of the imperial city.

He was an old man who looked to be about sixty years old, his hair was half black and not white, and the wrinkles on his face were normal, and he seemed to be an ordinary old man in the process of aging.

However, this simple and free robe, but it added a bit of chic to him.

Li Wei looked in the direction of the imperial city for a long time, and he didn't know what to look at, but he laughed when he looked at it, "Hahaha, yes, yes, the thief who steals the country deserves such an end!" ”

Then he closed the window again, returned to the table, opened the two boxes of pastries that had just been delivered, and poured himself a glass of wine.

Although he is under house arrest here, and he can't even leave his bedroom, he has delicious food and wine every day.

Li Wei picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, tasted it carefully, nodded and smiled: "It tastes good, but it's a pity that it's not mellow enough, just like this stolen national fortune, it's just a castle in the air."

"I hope the prince can succeed this time!"

……

On the third day of the third month of the sixth year of Chonghe, the Tianjiao banquet was held in the imperial city, and the Son of Heaven would also come to the banquet in person, which could be described as extremely grand.

From the place where the banquet attendees live to the palace, there are honor guards lined up along the way, and the momentum is extremely huge, which makes many people envious, and they can't wait to be the top 30 strong people on the list.

At this time, Du Heng was traveling with Cheng Yujun to the palace for a banquet, but when he passed by the crowd, he suddenly felt that there was a strange trace of power.

Ahead is the perimeter of the Imperial Palace.

Du Heng's brows furrowed slightly, and he said secretly: "Is it the arrangement that Tian Xing deliberately left behind, or is there another force interfering, and what is the purpose?" ”
