Chapter 15: Chaos is coming, and the big exam is changing
All the disciples who participated in the conferral test bowed down again and sat cross-legged on the ground in a proper manner.
Zhang Xiao also sat down.
No, why everyone seems to know what the next specific test is.
Only I don't know?
Fortunately, the master in charge of the host still said loudly according to the usual practice:
"The first level of the conferral test.
The golden light mantra is the fundamental method of my dragon and tiger mountain's dual cultivation!
If the golden light is not deep enough, going down the mountain will be in vain.
Within the time limit, those who survive one stick of incense are qualified, two sticks of incense are good, and three pillars of incense are preferred. ”
Master Bo slowly glanced at the disciples below, and suddenly stepped lightly on the ground with his right foot.
Under the disciples who participated in the assessment, the huge yin-yang fish suddenly spun.
The gossip map suddenly lit up with a misty white light.
"Golden Light Mantra - Recitation!"
Hundreds of disciples sat cross-legged with their backs straight, and chanted in unison:
"Heaven and Earth Xuanzong, Wan Qi Root.
Cultivating hundreds of millions of eons of eons proves my supernatural powers.
Inside and outside the Three Realms, only the Tao is the only one.
There is a golden light in my body, which reflects my body.
”
A golden light rose from the bodies of these hundreds of people, and this golden light was like a blazing flame, almost instantly reflecting that piece of light.
Zhang Xiao slowly closed her eyes, and instead used her spiritual sense and body to perceive everything outside.
There seemed to be an invisible force in the air and around it.
The pressure surged from all directions, and the golden light that had been diffused on the surface of the body was suppressed and retracted little by little.
It's like a giant holding himself in the palm of his hand and clenching his fists hard.
The original golden light has condensed a lot, and there is a feeling of heaviness, and the golden light that has been condensed to the extreme suddenly does not push back.
It's just stubbornly resisting, fighting against stronger and stronger forces.
The field was so quiet that even a pin could be heard.
The crowd of onlookers also temporarily stopped communicating and silently watched the assessment in the field.
Many people still have a trace of nostalgia in their eyes, as if they remembered the years when they were assessed.
As time passed, some of them began to breathe heavily, staring at the incense burner in front of them.
Two-thirds of the way through that stick of incense had burned.
Most of these were disciples of about 20 years, and it wasn't long after breaking through the golden light three inches.
In the words of Zhang Chengdao: "There is always a moment that touches you during the experience, some people catch it, and some people don't."
Three inches of golden light is just the beginning, time is fair after all, when life becomes thicker, your golden light is the same. ”
Therefore, after the golden light is three inches, the disciple will be allowed to travel down the mountain.
Zhang Xiao felt quite relaxed after getting used to that power, and even had the leisure to see other disciples.
Although the color of the Golden Light Mantra is generally golden, it seems to be slightly different for each person.
For example, the honest disciple who came to remind him at the beginning, his golden light had a heavy feeling, even a bit like earth.
He still had that silly smile on his face, and he was obviously relaxed.
There is also a disciple's golden light is very active, like a flame, smart and blazing, even if it shrinks to the extreme, it is still not to be outdone, occasionally it will expand outward, and then it will be withdrawn.
As everyone knows, when he is looking at others, others are also looking at him.
Among the onlookers, those who are more familiar with Zhang Chengdao have begun to ask curiously:
"Senior Brother Zhang, how did this kid in your family practice, this level of golden light, 13 years old?
It's all golden and clear, and it shines on my heart. ”
"Yes, this mind. I still remember when Senior Brother Zhang gave the big exam.
The golden light that came out of the fight between life and death is fierce, but in general, it is better than your son's, right? ”
"Tsk. The color is like gold and jade, and the shape is like water, this child's heart must be extremely warm, and Senior Brother Zhang has a unicorn! ”
"That kid in my family, at this age, asked me if he could resist with a golden light spell when he beat him and make me angry.
At that time, I told him with my actions, what can you resist with your kid's weak golden light spell like an eggshell?
A black tiger is as broken as a scumbag. ”
"Oh? Senior brother, do you still bring a trick to beat your own children? ”
"That's not it, it's comfortable to beat!"
"Learned, learned, learned."
Zhang Chengdao and Li Qingshu were already happy in their hearts, but they still had a calm and breezy expression on their faces, and they couldn't wait for others to say more.
At this moment, the incense stick had burned out, and at the moment when the incense was extinguished, the master flicked his fingers, and the second incense stick had been ignited.
Zhang Xiao immediately noticed the change.
If it used to be a continuous squeeze and slowly increasing force, now it has become strange.
The invisible power is extremely tricky, sometimes concentrated to attack a little, sometimes scattered, and suddenly disappears when you fight with all your might.
The feeling of being completely empty can make people vomit blood.
Before you can adjust your breath and mentality, the force comes out again and attacks a little.
Many people were caught off guard, only to come with an unwilling or surprised roar.
The golden light on his body disintegrated like a shattered eggshell into a cloud of light.
For a moment, the field was like fireworks exploding, and countless golden points of light were scattered in all directions.
It was just the moment the golden light collapsed, and those unpredictable powers also dissipated at the same time, as if they had never appeared before.
The faces of those failed disciples were ugly, some were unwilling and some regretted, and some were as calm as ever.
They stood up and bowed to the master who was standing at the forefront, and then consciously walked out of the field.
There were already people waiting there, and when they saw them coming, they immediately led them to the side hall.
There seems to be another arrangement.
In the square, where hundreds of people were seated, the golden light continued to explode, and all the onlookers watched silently.
Zhang Xiao finally felt the pressure at this moment.
The golden light slowly contracted, and I didn't move if you instigated it in every way.
In the eyes of outsiders, the golden light on Zhang Xiao's body is integrated, stable and excessive, but it seems to have a hint of agility.
As the second incense stick became shorter and shorter, the golden light of the surrounding disciples shattered faster and faster.
Even the crisp 'Kara' sound when it shattered was connected.
Someone kept shaking their heads with a wry smile and stood up, saluted and quickly left.
Soon, there were only a dozen or so disciples left on the field who had long been famous on Dragon and Tiger Mountain.
and Zhang Xiao.
Considering his age, even in Longhu Mountain, which is full of geniuses, it is quite rare.
"The children of the Young Heavenly Master's family are so talented?"
"The tiger father has no dogs, when the young heavenly master gave the big exam, the performance of the killing qi almost dyeing the golden light red is incredible.
Now his son is even more excessive, a 13-year-old child, Jin Guang is as stable as 31!
It also has the agility of a young man, which is an eye-opener! ”
"A good seedling of the future Heavenly Master."
The stronger the Heavenly Master, the better, this is the consensus of Longhu Mountain, and the powerful weirdness is all done by the Heavenly Master himself.
Just like the Peach Blossom Spring, just like the capital to suppress the dragon, if the Heavenly Master is not strong enough, then it is the entire Dao Gate that is unlucky.
It's not because you become a Heavenly Master.
It's because you're strong enough to become a Heavenly Master.
Besides, what is there to be a teacher in the sky, the power may not be much, but the responsibility is heavy.
Love who deserves.
The second incense slowly extinguished.
The disciples present all breathed a sigh of relief.
The test of the first two incense sticks in each big test is generally fixed, and everyone is somewhat prepared.
Of course, it's okay not to prepare, after all, it's just a way to test the intensity of the golden light.
As long as the standard is met, it is not difficult to pass.
For example, Zhang Xiao, even if he didn't know anything, he passed the test relatively easily.
But from the third incense stick, it is the Heavenly Master who asks the question, and it is different every time.
For example, in the last assessment, at the moment of the third incense, the Heavenly Master personally stepped out and gave a slap in the back.
If it is broken, it fails, and if it is not broken, it is directly counted according to the three incense sticks.
No one knows what kind of questions the Heavenly Master will come up with this time.
The master burned a stick of incense again, and the invisible power around him still did not dissipate.
I saw the old heavenly master holding his hands behind his back and said with a smile:
"This third incense"
He waved his hand, and the desks suddenly flew in front of everyone.
There are pen, ink, paper, inkstone, ground cinnabar, and cut yellow paper.
The rest of the disciples suddenly sighed in their hearts.
It won't.
"Those who draw ten runes will pass!"
Not only the remaining dozen or so disciples, but even the crowd of onlookers let out a neat inhalation.
It is already relatively difficult to hold up the golden light to resist under heavy pressure.
And in this case, draw ten kinds of symbols?
Is this not wanting someone to take the best?
Someone let out a muffled snort, as if in slow motion, and slowly stretched out his hand and picked up the brush.
After brewing for a while, I slowly put down the pen, but I just drew a stroke.
His face changed, and he was already so skilled that he could draw a talisman with his eyes closed.
Under the pressure, he couldn't even draw well, and directly drew a wavy line.
Almost everyone found out about the problem.
The muscles of the whole body are tense, resisting external forces, and the movements of the hands must be kept from deforming.
This difficulty has exceeded everyone's imagination.
Zhang Xiao gritted her teeth, but the hand holding the pen was still trembling slightly.
'Smack'! He summoned the golden light spell and fought against the all-pervasive force.
With his left hand, he held the forearm of his right hand.
The originally light spirit pen is now very heavy.
Although I am not trembling, it is still not a simple matter to draw the charm coherently.
After forcibly drawing half of the rune paper, Zhang Xiao only felt in a trance, and even the golden light spell could barely be maintained.
The movement of the arm immediately skewed.
Panting heavily, sweat running down her cheeks, but Zhang Xiao felt that it was difficult for her to even wipe her sweat.
No, you can't draw like that.
He glanced at the nearby senior brother with his peripheral vision.
It seems that everyone's face is flushed and more energetic, and there is no luster of Fu Cheng so far.
Zhang Chengdao and Li Qingshu's eyebrows were already wrinkled, and they looked at the situation on the field worriedly.
What is the Celestial Master doing?
The current difficulty has exceeded the limit of these disciples, and it will take at least several years of training to complete it.
One of the disciples shook his head, put down his pen with a wry smile, and dispersed the golden light.
It seems that I can't get this excellent one, but it's okay to be good, anyway, my expectation is good.
He was about to bow forward in salute.
The old heavenly master nodded at him slightly, and said lightly:
"This time it's a big test, you. . . Not qualified"
Eliminate?
The disciple's eyes widened and he looked at the Heavenly Master in disbelief, and Zhang Xiao and the other disciples also looked at him with shocked and confused eyes.
Isn't this just a U.S. exam?
Everyone has this idea, it's man-made, and there is a good foundation anyway.
The Celestial Master stood up, clasped his hands behind his back, and his face was calm:
"From today onwards, the big exam will be changed, and if you don't have enough ability, don't go down the mountain.
Chaos is coming, and going down the mountain is just a waste of life. ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and many even had a feeling of numbness on their scalps.
The chaos in the mouth of the Heavenly Master and the chaos in the general population are completely two different concepts.
No matter how much doubt and shock there was in their hearts, everyone bowed down in unison: "Obey the decree of the Heavenly Master!" ”
Zhang Xiao's attention was all on failing the big exam if he couldn't draw.
How does this work?
Another year? Who knows if it will be harder next year?
Since I knew that I had been conferring, I have worked hard for more than two years to get to where I am today.
How can I accept failure?
It's not just him, it seems that the rest of the disciples have been aroused with a kind of blood, and there are no mediocre people who can get to this point.
Everyone's eyes have changed, if it was a kind of best effort before, just to leave no regrets and see where their limits are.
Now, their goal is to push the limits.
The golden light faithfully reflected the changes in their hearts, and the originally somewhat dim golden light was like a raging fire at the moment.
It spread violently and desperately.
Even the most honest middle-aged man stared at him, gritted his teeth, and the flesh on his cheeks was stretched as if it was about to crack.
An angry roar came out of his mouth, and his subordinates were like a dragon and snake walking with a pen, and almost instantaneously drew a talisman.
This roar seemed to open the curtain, and the light of the runes flashed on the table.
Zhang Xiao's muscles were like tight strings, and the strength of his whole body was concentrated on his hands.
The muscles in his arms bulged out one by one, as if they were about to burst.
More than 700 days and nights, tens of thousands of repetitions, those who had sweated once condensed into one point at this moment.
One, two, three.
Sweat slid down his forehead and fell to the ground drop by drop, and the robe on his body was already soaked with sweat and stuck to his chest.
It's like washing.
His face had turned pale, and his eyes had become a little glazed.
His hands were shaking, and he could barely hold the pen in his hand.
Zhang Xiao tried to stay calm, but her body trembled uncontrollably.
The heart was beating faster, and each beat felt like it was about to jump out of the chest.
Lingjue was already issuing a warning, and Zhang Xiao could even feel her body wailing.
The original blazing golden light was slowly dimming, recovering little by little.
The mind starts to get confused, and you can't even concentrate on your thoughts.
A thick exhaustion overwhelmed him, as if he could get rid of it all if he just closed his eyes.
Sleep or that's it.
Zhang Xiao raised his head as hard as he could, his eyes were already covered with sweat, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
That's it. Abandon?
Zhang Xiao tugged at the corners of her mouth, revealing a stiff smile.
never
The next moment, his hair suddenly fell apart, and the wand around his waist jumped into his hand with a joyful hum.
The originally dim golden light suddenly fluctuated violently, as if it was returning to the light, and burst out with an incomparably brilliant light.
Zhang Xiao raised his head suddenly, my path is different from other people's.
Even if it's only for a moment, but I can do it.
Empty Spiegel!
The wand shook more and more intensely, and it impatiently took Zhang Xiao's hand and pointed it in front of it.
This is my way.
The Void is a talisman!
Pale blue rays of light formed in the air, rapidly intertwining, extending, and distorting.
In the shocked eyes of everyone, ten talismans like phantoms floated neatly in front of him.
I'm sorry, I'm in a very bad mood today, first audited, and then met a very annoying person, and was pestered by this annoying person for more than an hour.
It's so uncomfortable that I can't write anymore today.
