Babel Castle.

Jiang Sheng had already made preparations before he came.

But I was still shocked by the small size of the city.

True Yang City was already quite a large city in his cognitive range.

In particular, this kind of ancient city is not like a modern city, with many options for high-rise accommodation of people.

The rapid increase in population means that the size of the city will reach an extremely terrifying number.

Under such a scale, whether it is administrative coordination or scheduling in all aspects, there will be huge problems.

It is not a simple matter to solve such problems.

And the Tongtian City in front of him looked at least twice as large as True Yang City.

Millions of people are gathered in this city, which makes this city feel like it is busy everywhere.

After Jiang Sheng and the others came to Tongtian City, someone soon greeted them.

After asking Jiang Sheng and the others about their intentions, they began to recommend themselves and could act as a guide.

Nie Yuandao: "I have long heard that Tongtian City is quite extraordinary, and those who come for the first time will definitely not be able to find their place, and now it seems that this is true." ”

"My Nie family also has a place to stay in Tongtian City, but let's find a guy to lead the way, otherwise I'm afraid we may have to take a lot of unjust roads, and in the end we won't be able to find a place."

After Nie Yuan finished speaking, he casually beckoned a person next to him to come over, told him the destination, and after taking out a few pieces of loose silver, the man walked in front with a smile on his face to lead the way for everyone.

After walking for more than half an hour in the crowded city, they finally stopped in an alley.

The Nie family's foothold is a small trading house.

It's just to sell some ordinary small items, just as a foothold for the Nie family here.

If you really want to transport goods and goods, the income from selling goods here will not be enough to cover the expenses along the way.

Jiang Sheng and the others were naturally also arranged to live in.

The Nie family had long known that the young master was coming, and everything had been properly prepared earlier.

Even Jiang Sheng and the others did not fall behind.

Everyone knows that Nie Yuan likes to make friends, and it is really strange if he goes on a long trip and does not bring a few friends over.

Jiang Sheng was very satisfied with this arrangement.

In a densely populated place like this, with a huge city, it would be too difficult to find the information you wanted to see without a local snake with you.

After a day's rest, the next day they were together again.

In the spacious guest room, Nie Yuan took a document and put it in front of everyone.

"These are the martial arts forces in Tongtian City that are recruiting disciples recently, and there will be different forces recruiting disciples every year, which is an unwritten rule, but there is one place that is more special."

Nie Yuan found one of the pages and said, "The Immortal Cloud Sword Sect recruits disciples all year round, but the entry requirements are extremely high, and few people can pass their assessment. ”

"Not only does it require strength, but there is also an age limit, but once you enter the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, the benefits are huge."

"Under this kind of entry condition, it is conceivable how strong is the strength of their door, and when the time comes, all kinds of resources can be used casually, and their strength will not improve rapidly?"

"What's more, I heard that this Immortal Cloud Sword Sect has a lot of background behind it, and they can even come into contact with aliens that we ordinary people can't reach at all!"

As soon as Nie Yuan said this, Jiang Sheng and the others were a little moved.

Shi Xing even asked, "Brother Nie, what are the requirements of this Immortal Cloud Sword Sect?" Are we qualified to go over? ”

Nie Yuan said: "Naturally, it is very harsh. ”

"The age is only twenty, and you have the strength to practice the skill realm, and the age is only seventeen, at least you have to have the cultivation realm."

"How are you doing?"

Shi Xing grinned: "That's no fun, I'm almost eighteen, and I haven't even reached the practice yet." ”

Qi Fei also shook his head and said that he had no hope.

They weren't disappointed in that kind of thing.

The tone of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect was too high, and it could be seen at a glance that this place was definitely not for ordinary people.

Therefore, Shi Xing and Qi Fei had already prepared in their hearts, so naturally they were not disappointed.

Nie Yuan also knew that the two of them might be a line behind, so he looked at Jiang Sheng and asked, "Brother Jiang, what about you?" ”

Jiang Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "There may be a glimmer of hope, what about you, Brother Nie?" ”

Nie Yuan laughed: "I only have a glimmer of hope, it's much worse than Brother Jiang." ”

Jiang Sheng didn't ask much.

His glimmer of hope is actually because he doesn't know the age of the original owner.

According to the standards of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, he has now reached the cultivation realm, and he should be around twenty years old this year.

But whether it is left or right, Jiang Sheng knows that it is not so specific.

After discussion, the four of them prepared to go to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect together to try their luck.

If you can't get by, go to other places to see if you can find your chance.

When the group of four came to the mountain gate of the Xianyun Sword Sect and expressed their intentions, they were led by the servants to the test bench at the foot of the mountain.

After they arrived, they found that this place really lived up to its name.

The martial artists who came to try their luck and participate in the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect test had already made this place look a little crowded.

Some people didn't look like they were qualified to enter the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect at a glance, but they still came.

The reason is that the testing process of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect is very standardized, and it can even be regarded as rigid.

But because of this rigid test rules, their test results give people enough convincing reasons.

As long as you take the test results of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and go to other sect gangs, they will also recognize it.

The Immortal Cloud Sword Sect didn't care about being taken advantage of, and for those of them who came to test their abilities, the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect also did not refuse.

It's also a benefit for these people.

Jiang Sheng looked at the weather in front of him, and had to sigh silently in his heart.

This Immortal Cloud Sword Sect was really a little different from what he imagined.

At least not that domineering feeling.

"It's always weird."

"Could it be that there are really many good people among the geniuses in this world?"

Jiang Sheng shook his head and didn't think much about it.

Who knows if this is the tradition of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.

Maybe the facilities here are more complete and easier to do, right?

However, the waiting time was far beyond Jiang Sheng's previous imagination.

No one moved forward in the square for a long time.

As time passed, Jiang Sheng felt a little impatient, and saw that someone had begun to set up tents in this square.

After Shi Xing inquired in the past, he found out the specific situation.

It turned out that the test time of this Immortal Cloud Sword Sect would take a long time because there were too many people coming.

Every day, there is a steady stream of follow-up people coming over, and the people in front of them can't be lined up at all.

If you really want to participate in the test of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, there is no other way but to wait here.

Jiang Sheng waved his hand, took out a few silver tickets, and handed them to Shi Xing.

Shi Xing understood, and it only took a moment for him to run back: "Brother Jiang, the front is all arranged." ”

"Now you can go and test it."

Jiang Sheng nodded and walked forward with Nie Yuan.

Everyone around him looked at Jiang Sheng's back, and a hint of envy flashed in their eyes, but they said with a hard voice: "Spending a few hundred taels of silver for this time is really wronged!" ”

Jiang Sheng walked all the way to the front, and someone gave him a waist card on the side.

Shi Xing and Qi Fei didn't choose to participate in the test, and they couldn't choose anyway, so there was no need to spend extra money.

Only Jiang Sheng and Nie Yuan were led up a path by a miscellaneous disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.

When he got to the top, Jiang Sheng also rolled his eyes when he saw that there was no one waiting in front of him.

This Immortal Cloud Sword Sect is sincere in letting those people line up.

It's very puzzling to test a talent and make it seem to be very private.

There's really nothing to say about this test of talent.

It's not much different from the usual testing process.

In the gazebo sat an old man.

Jiang Sheng walked up first, and the old man glanced at Jiang Sheng, but there was no wave in his eyes.

Then he pointed to the strange stone in front of him and said, "Just pour the blood qi in your body into it." ”

Jiang Sheng walked to the strange stone according to his words, his palm fell on the strange stone, and the blood and qi in his body surged, pouring towards the center of the stone.

Unexpectedly, he encountered a lot of obstacles in his past blood qi.

As the blood qi he infused with the past became stronger and stronger, a slight trace of blood gradually appeared on the strange stone.

The old man's eyes were downcast, and he didn't seem to be very interested in all this.

However, it was only after the blood in the strange stone suddenly flashed that the old man raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Sheng.

"Come here."

There was no doubt that this was the reason why Jiang Sheng had already mobilized the power in his body to the cultivation realm.

Jiang Sheng stopped the output of blood qi in his hand and came to the old man.

The old man stretched out his hand and put it on Jiang Sheng's arm.

"The blood qi in the body is pure and thick, it has entered the cultivation technique, and the talent is good, not those medicine jars."

After a while, the old man pinched Jiang Sheng's arm, then shook his head and said, "It's a pity that I'm old and unqualified, let's go down the mountain." ”

Nie Yuan felt a little unacceptable for a while when he heard that Jiang Sheng's strength had already reached the cultivation level, and he was still unqualified.

"Senior, this is a little unkind, isn't it?"

"My brother has already practiced, this kind of talent, one in a million, even if he is old, it must not be much bigger, this is not enough?"

The old man shook his head: "Insufficient is insufficient, his bone age is more than twenty, and more than one month, my Xianyun Sword Sect's thousand-year-old inheritance is like this, but it is not difficult for him, besides, you say that he is one in a million talents, and the old man also recognizes it, but let me ask, among my Xianyun Sword Sect, which disciple is not one in a million?" ”

Jiang Sheng nodded: "What the seniors said is reasonable, the juniors have something to ask, I don't know if I can bother the seniors to mention something?" ”

The old man nodded, and Xu responded on the premise that Jiang Sheng's talent was not bad.

Jiang Sheng asked, "I wonder if my predecessors have ever heard of the Iron Tiger Gate?" ”

The old man didn't expect Jiang Sheng to ask such a question.

He stroked his beard, and there was a look of remembrance in his eyes: "Iron Tiger Gate...... It's been a very old thing. ”

"You're lucky, if you were someone else, you might not know about it."

"Iron Tiger Gate, their predecessor was just a gang, but this gang, developed later, but we didn't dare to underestimate the Xianyun Sword Sect, when the Iron Tiger Gate was at its peak, it even overwhelmed our Xianyun Sword Sect, and the things at that time were really ......"

"You've cultivated the Iron Wire Fist of the Iron Tiger Gate, right?"

The old man said what Jiang Sheng thought in one bite.

Jiang Sheng didn't hide this kind of thing, and simply nodded straightforwardly.

The old man said: "The Iron Wire Fist is the foundation building true skill of the Iron Tiger Gate, and if you can cultivate the Iron Wire Fist to the highest level, you can continue to practice the exercises after the Iron Tiger Gate." ”

"The origin of the exercises of the Iron Tiger Gate is very great, and it is also extremely difficult for ordinary people to cultivate, and the master of the sect is a genius who can cultivate his exercises all the way to a very high realm, or it may be because the difficulty of this exercise is too high, since the master of the sect, few people can cultivate it to a very high level, so that the number of masters in the Iron Tiger Gate is seriously insufficient, and there are also a lot of people who have been angry with them before, so it will naturally slowly decline."

"If you want to find the exercises of the Iron Tiger Gate, my Xianyun Sword Sect does not have them, but in Tongtian City, there is a place where there are likely to be some residual exercises of the Iron Tiger Gate, and they have a great relationship with the Iron Tiger Gate, and it can be regarded as a different kind of inheritance, it depends on whether you are willing to go or not."

Jiang Sheng asked, "Where?" ”

The old man said, "City Guards." ”

Jiang Sheng felt a little stunned for a while, but this was normal.

So he arched his hand towards the old man and retreated.

After that, there was Nie Yuan.

His strength is not yet the cultivation technique, but only the cultivation of the marrow realm.

But to Jiang Sheng's surprise, this guy was only seventeen this year.

It just happened to meet the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect's standard for accepting apprentices.

This incident made Jiang Sheng stunned again.

It's not that he doubts Nie Yuan's strength.

It's just that Nie Yuan looks like he has an extremely old face, if you want to say that he is twenty-five this year, Jiang Sheng believes it.

Who would have thought that this product would only be seventeen this year?

After the old man accepted Nie Yuan, Nie Yuan came to say goodbye to Jiang Sheng.

There were many regrets in the words, but Jiang Sheng only smiled at this.

Although the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect was good, it was not the path he wanted to take.

The exercises handed down by the Iron Tiger Gate, this is what he really wants.

He was very curious about what kind of surprise the exercises after the Iron Fist would bring him, if the strength of the divine soul could be improved again, then he would have fully achieved the goal he had set before.

After saying goodbye to Nie Yuan, Jiang Sheng came to the bottom of the mountain, and Shi Xing and Qi Fei were still waiting.

They all felt very sorry when they learned that Nie Yuan had been recruited by the Xianyun Sword Sect, but Jiang Sheng did not enter the sect by one step.

When they knew that Nie Yuan was only seventeen this year, they were even more speechless.
