Chapter 49: The Introductory Examination Begins
These disciples who participated in the introductory assessment are the new blood of the sect, the future of the sect, and the hope.
In this assessment, the Great Elder of the Demon Shadow Sect will personally sit in charge, and the Sect Master will come forward to preside, which is a rare opportunity for countless low-level disciples and disciples to see the big names of the sect.
It has been two years since Chu Wei came to the Demon Shadow Sect, and the strongest sect leader he has seen is only Wan Mozi, and Chu Wei, the powerhouse of other sects, has not seen it at all, let alone the sect master, he doesn't know whether it is a man or a woman.
The entrance of the Nine-Layer Demon Palace is in the mountain behind the Demon Shadow Sect, and there is a large open space here, which is very vast.
At this moment, there was a sea of people in the clearing, not only on the ground, but even in the air, there were countless high-level monks standing in the air, they were either standing in the void, or meditating cross-legged on the magic weapon, or sitting on the back of the spirit beast, looking ahead.
In front of everyone is a cliff, and under the cliff there is a gray vortex door, with a diameter of about twenty or thirty zhang, which is the entrance to the Demon Palace.
There is an altar next to the entrance, on which there are many seats and a three-legged bronze tripod, and there is a stick of incense burning in the tripod, which is not lit.
The thousands of disciples who participated in the assessment were at the front of the crowd, isolated by black flags printed with fierce beast totems, and at the front stood the outer disciples, only a few hundred, in order were the registered disciples, about a thousand, and the remaining three or four thousand were miscellaneous disciples.
Among these people, there are also many old disciples, who are miscellaneous servants or registered disciples who have not participated in the assessment before, such as Huyi.
At this moment, Chu Wei was standing in the crowd where the miscellaneous disciples were, his expression was calm, and the expectation in his eyes was hidden by him.
Xu Xiaoxi and Chu Wei stood together, looking around curiously, their little faces tense.
"If there is danger, I will spread it, with the eldest brother here, I should be able to protect me from being expelled from the sect!" Hu Yi is a registered disciple, standing in the area where the registered disciple is located, looking like a tiger head and a tiger brain.
Hu Ya is in the rear at the moment, and can only watch the assessment.
Just when everyone was talking, the mist rolled over the cliff, and then, five black mist fell from the sky and fell on the altar to turn into five people.
Among them, two middle-aged men in dark purple brocade robes wearing black jade crowns, one was a man with eyebrows, and the other was a beautiful woman.
The other three were wearing cloaks, and among the three cloaked people was an old woman, her eyes were closed, as if she was blind, and Wan Mozi was also among them, and she was recognized by Chu Wei at a glance.
They descended and sat down on either side of the side seats, with two seats left in the center.
With the arrival of the five, everyone fell silent, and many people showed awe in their expressions.
A moment later, a purple light pierced through the mist above and landed in the center of the altar.
When the light dissipated, he turned into two people, one was an old man with a full head of hair and white eyebrows, he was wearing a purple-black cloak, his eyes were attentive, and when he looked at the crowd, his face showed peace, and he stood on the altar like a pool of clear stagnant water, without waves.
The other person was a middle-aged man wearing a purple jade crown and a purple robe, his expression was not angry and arrogant, and the coercion on his body was as if there was nothing, which shocked everyone.
"I'll wait to meet the Great Elder and the Sect Master." When the two arrived, everyone straightened up and bowed respectfully to the altar.
Chu Wei also bowed to the altar with his fists, looking at the sect masters on the altar who were intimidating from all directions, his eyes flashing.
The two nodded slightly, the white-bearded old man was the Great Elder, and he sat on the chair, while the purple-robed man did not move.
He took a step forward and said loudly: "I am the sect master Yu Chengfeng, my Demon Shadow Sect has been established for thousands of years, and the years are long and unfoundable, and it can stand tall in the world because of the strict screening of disciples, but those who pass the entry assessment are the elites of the sect and are treated preferentially." ”
"If you don't pass this assessment, don't be discouraged, the sect will also hold a small range of promotion assessments on a regular basis, as long as you pass, anyone will have the opportunity to get better treatment."
Yu Chengfeng, the sect leader of the Demon Shadow Sect, slowly looked at everyone, and his voice was faintly majestic.
Hearing the sect master's words, many disciples looked excited, and began to sharpen their fists, ready to show their strength in the assessment.
But Yu Chengfeng's next words made everyone's hearts tighten.
"In the assessment, because there is a demon suppression ring, you can teleport out of the demon palace in time when you encounter danger, but it does not mean that there is no danger, in the previous assessment, because you failed to use the demon suppression ring in time to be killed by the demon beast There are not a few disciples, I hope you don't be careless, but ......"
Yu Chengfeng's words changed sharply, and he said coldly: "If anyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, and escapes from the Demon Palace without even hunting a matching demonic beast, then stop blaming the sect for being ruthless, expel you from the sect, and fend for yourself." ”
"The sect can support the weak, but don't be greedy for life and fear death!"
For Yu Chengfeng's words, many people agree with each other, the cultivation realm is cruel, the weak eat the strong, the strong are respected, although the weak are difficult to move an inch, but those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, if they want to make a difference, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.
There may be a Paradise in the cultivation realm, but it is definitely very rare.
"There are nine layers of purgatory in the Senwei Sect, there are nine layers of demon towers in Wuxia Valley, and my Demon Shadow Sect has nine layers of demon palaces."
"The rules of the entry assessment are only said once in this sect, I believe everyone knows that the nine-layer demon palace corresponds to the number of soul casting times in the spirit casting period, and each layer has a corresponding level of demonic beasts occupied."
"The first item of the assessment, you must hunt the corresponding level or the core of the demonic beast higher than your own cultivation to be effective, and the second item of the assessment, you must walk out of the demon palace after the incense is burned out to pass the assessment."
"The kernel you hunt is naturally the more the better, and the longer you persist in the Demon Palace, the higher your grades."
After Yu Chengfeng finished speaking, his palm spread out, and a jade box appeared.
"Catch." Yu Chengfeng opened the jade box, pointed upward, and with a buzzing sound, it was dense, and countless black things flew out, landing in front of each new disciple without omission, and was caught by them.
"This thing is a demon suppression ring, and you will quickly drip blood to recognize the Lord."
"Only after wearing the demon suppression ring can you kill the demonic beast, and it can only be the beast killer who takes the beast core, and others will scatter when they touch it."
"Also, this sect reminds you that if the monster is killed by two or more people, the core cannot be retained."
When Yu Chengfeng said this, he immediately dispelled the idea of snatching other people's cores and cooperating with others to hunt cores.
"How so? I was going to ask someone for help, so what should I do? ”
"Damn, killing people is my favorite thing to do, but I didn't expect to be able to snatch the core."
"I think it's very interesting, I've heard from my brothers and sisters, the Demon Palace is a very strange place, I'm looking forward to it."
After everyone got the ring, they all began to drip blood to recognize the owner, after Chu Wei got the ring, he observed, it was pure black, very sleek, and had a metallic texture, but it did not drip blood, but was put into the lock empty bag.
Hu Yi on the side saw it and asked puzzledly: "Big brother, why don't you put on the demon suppression ring with blood?" ”
"It's not too late to wear it when you enter the Demon Palace." Chu Wei smiled slightly, and didn't say much.
Yu Chengfeng rose from the altar, faced the cliff above the whirlpool, took out a round mirror, was thrown out by him, and when he saw the wind, it rose, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a hundred zhang and stuck on the cliff.
"At the time of the assessment, the picture in the Demon Palace will be presented on the Xuanguang Mirror, and your every move may be noticed by us, so you can do it yourself." Yu Chengfeng landed back on the altar, faced everyone, and said, "If you meet the standard and want to return, you can inject spiritual power into the Demon Suppression Ring." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, this introductory assessment begins." Yu Chengfeng pointed to the incense burning in front of him, and the green smoke immediately rose.
At the moment when the incense was lit, the three figures in front of the crowd rose directly into the air and went straight to the whirlpool in front of them.
That is the three great Tianjiao of the sect, Song Jue, Yan Han, and Sima Jie.
