When all the cultivators came to the Asking Question Platform, they had already seen Zhao Qi sitting quietly in front of the Asking Questioning Platform.

Zhao Qi was dressed in white, sitting cross-legged on the high platform, the sun shining on his body, looking like an ancient Buddha standing here for thousands of years.

At this moment, all the cultivators subconsciously closed their mouths and refused to make any sound, for fear of disturbing the tranquility at the moment.

Everyone stood on the asking platform, and they didn't dare to act rashly for a while, but just stood quietly.

Fortunately, after a while, Zhao Qi opened his eyes slightly, and after seeing everyone, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Sit ......"

Zhao Qi's voice seemed to have a special power in it, and this word reached everyone's ears, only making everyone feel refreshed, and all the fatigue along the way was swept away at this moment.

Everyone sat cross-legged below according to what Zhao Qi said, raising their heads to look at Zhao Qi sitting on the high platform, this scene was very similar to the sermon scene described in all the picture scrolls.

"The Tao is very good, and the name is very famous. The beginning of the nameless heaven and earth, the mother of all things......"

In his first sermon to practitioners, Zhao Qi began with the most well-known Tao Te Ching.

His voice was not loud, but it was clear to every corner.

His eyes reveal a mysterious wisdom, as if he can penetrate into the heart of each person.

"You can think of the Tao as a kind of rule between heaven and earth, in which all life and life are within this rule, and all living beings have Tao.

Now that you have entered the Tao and stepped into the door of this Xuan Academy, you have officially become cultivators.

In addition to the various subjects that I study on a daily basis, I also hope that you will have a deeper understanding of the Tao. ”

While speaking, Zhao Qi slowly spread out his palm, and in everyone's surprised eyes, Zhao Qi's palm actually bloomed a flower.

But soon the flower withered in an instant, and the withered petals fell on Zhao Qi's hand and gradually disappeared, but where the petals gradually fell, new flowers bloomed again.

"The alternation of the sun and the moon is the way, and the falling flowers are also the way.

In essence, whether it is innate qi or conception, it is a part of the acquired in our body, and it is also the two sides of the opposite of yin and yang.

To take the simplest example, let's take the Taoist basic technique palm thunder as an example.

The innate qi is the qi of heaven and earth, and the acquired qi is the qi of gestation.

There is no difference between the root of the essence of the two, so there is actually a hidden heaven and earth in the human body, and the palm thunder that we can attract is drawn from the heaven and earth in this body. ”

As the words fell, the flower in Zhao Qi's hand was instantly destroyed by the thunder, and a strong electric light lingered around Chaoqi's body, making all the cultivators couldn't help but leave their sight and chose to avoid the edge for the time being.

"But if the palm thunder can be completed and can attract the innate qi through the acquired qi, then the power you can exert is not just the power in the body."

Zhao Qi pinched his hands, and the originally cloudless sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and when lightning and thunder roared, a great coercion was placed on every cultivator's body, making their hearts feel shocked.

This process didn't last long, Zhao Qi just waved his hand, and everything returned to normal in a short time.

"It's too early for you to find out what the Tao is.

The purpose of everyone's cultivation does not need to be set up from the beginning to such a mysterious degree, after all, even Lao Tzu did not say in the end whether the Qing Dao exists by the river and where.

The goal you have now set for your practice is the end of the four years, during which time all the power you can wield will be the foundation for your own protection. ”

The expressions of all the cultivators present began to become solemn.

As Zhao Qi said, when they first entered the cultivation, they never thought of becoming immortals or transcending the immortal realm.

All they want to do is to take their destiny into their own hands and reverse the inevitable future of humanity.

In this trail, Zhao Qi re-established the direction of cultivation for all cultivators, which also generated great motivation in their hearts, and in the next practice, this motivation will also support them to go further and further.

During the more than an hour that Zhao Qi preached, all the practitioners felt that they had entered a very special state.

At this moment, they seemed to have a connection with everything in heaven and earth, but they didn't know that in the process of preaching, Zhao Qi had been spreading his power intentionally or unintentionally, and he was also invisibly raising the upper limit of all cultivators' cultivation.

The cultivators who can come to the Xuan Academy are all elites selected from tens of thousands of people, and the first criterion for them to be able to enter the Xuan Academy is to be able to sense the existence of qi, and this realm was named by Zhao Qi as Feeling Spirit.

Zhao Qi's sermon did not last long, because he knew that practitioners needed time to digest his words and understand the deep meaning.

He smiled gently, closed his eyes again, and sat quietly on the podium.

The practitioners sat silently below, their hearts filled with shock and awe.

Zhao Qi's words were like a key that opened their understanding of the Tao and stimulated their enthusiasm for cultivation.

They begin to understand that spiritual practice is not only about increasing strength, but also about understanding and exploring oneself and the world.

After Zhao Qi's sermon ended, the practitioners did not leave immediately.

They were also immersed in Zhao Qi's words, trying to draw more wisdom from them.

They began to think about their future and how they could better control their destiny.

Zhao Qi looked at them, his heart full of relief.

He knew that these young practitioners would be the hope of the future, and they would use their power to change the world.

"Remember, you are cultivators, and your path is difficult, but your responsibilities are also great."

Zhao Qi's voice sounded again, this was his last exhortation to the cultivators.

The cultivators nodded in unison, their eyes full of determination and determination.

They are ready for the challenges ahead.

Zhao Qi looked at them with a smile, he knew that he had completed his mission. He hopes that these young practitioners will take his teachings with them and forge their own path to create a better future.

……

With Zhao Qi's trail, the cultivators began to be more attentive in the training of other projects in the future, and their beliefs in their hearts became more and more firm.

In the Fu Pavilion, the academicians were explaining more high-level talismans, and the cultivators were taking notes carefully and conducting tests of imaginary enemies in class.

When the Xuan Academy was first established, a special formation was set up in each classroom.

At this moment, as the academician mobilized the formation, all the cultivators saw a flower in front of them, and in just a moment, they realized that they were in a void place.

In the scorching heat, there is no grass growing in this area, and magma can be seen flowing under the violent ground.

More and more flesh-and-blood figures crawled out of the ground and approached these cultivators, who were the object of their training.

"It's."

The cultivators looked at the scene in front of them in amazement, and their hearts were filled with shock.

"This is the enemy we face as humanity."

The voice of the lecturer suddenly sounded in everyone's ears, shocking the cultivators' hearts.

"Although these enemies are not real, they can inflict substantial damage on you within this formation.

But at the same time, they also give us the opportunity to grow and give us the possibility to surpass ourselves. ”

Zhao Qi's figure slowly appeared in the void, and he looked at every cultivator, his eyes full of anticipation.

"These enemies created by the formation are a replica of the power that we ran through the research on the remains of the demons in Dongshan Prefecture back then.

The enemies you have encountered so far are only one-tenth of the overall strength of the demons that invaded Dongshan Prefecture back then.

Your mission is to protect our world, our loved ones, our friends. ”

The eyes of the practitioners were full of determination and determination. They know that it is their responsibility and that they have to do it.

"Now, you need to use what you have learned to fight these enemies. Remember, every battle is a test for yourselves and a tempering of your cultivation. ”

The academician's words fell, and the cultivators immediately took action. They began to invoke what they had learned and began to fight against these void figures.

The academician stood quietly to the side, he looked at these young cultivators with relief in his eyes.

……

In the following days, the study of the Xuan Academy became more intense, but the enthusiasm of the cultivators for learning did not diminish because of this.

They are working hard to cultivate every day, whether it is the spell Dao method, or the alchemy and the gods.

Zhao Qi has been accompanying them in this process, he often comes to explain some problems to them, and often comes to give them encouragement. His presence fills every practitioner with strength.

After all the cultivators had completed their basic training in the techniques, they were finally able to be handed over to the team members.

On this day, Zhang Zhenshan led the team members to stand at the Dao platform, waiting for the arrival of the cultivators.

After this period of training, they already have a little dust on their bodies.

When the cultivators curiously gathered around the Daoist platform and stood in front of the team members, they also looked at these people curiously, and since they came to the Xuan Academy on the first day, they noticed that these people had always followed Zhao Qi's side.

But in such a long period of study, I have never seen these people come to teach, so everyone is quite curious about the identity of these people.

After everyone arrived, Zhang Zhenshan stepped forward and swept over everyone present with a stern face, and then said slowly:

"Fellow Daoists, during the three-month study in the Xuan Academy, you have mastered the basic knowledge of magic and have the qualifications to become a true cultivator.

Next, everyone's study plan was handed over to us, and each of us present represented a different path of tree cultivation.

Next, I hope to discover your talents and find the right direction for you to practice.

I want you to be not just a practitioner, but a warrior, a warrior who can stand up and protect others in times of danger. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhenshan pointed at the volley talisman in the air, instantly triggering the golden light charm between heaven and earth, and several swimming dragons wandered between heaven and earth. He solemnly said:

"What I represent is the method of the Dharma, which is based on charms, and the Talisman leads to the heavens, and all the Dharmas are one. This power originates from heaven and earth and has existed since ancient times. ”

The cultivators were amazed, they had never seen such a strength, and the strength that Zhang Zhenshan displayed was completely different from their previous basic training.

They exchanged glances with each other, their hearts filled with awe and anticipation.

Immediately after that, Wang Wuchen took a step forward, raised his foot and lightly stepped on the ground, and a light blue shock appeared in it.

The five elements of the direction are wandering one after another, and the eight directions are dazzling.

He said in a deep voice:

"What I represent is a formation based on the horoscope, and the formation is a world of its own. In the formation, anything is possible. ”

The ancient knife in Zhang Lingyuan's hand released a scorching heat, and with the appearance of the over-the-shoulder dragon, Zhang Lingyuan's body exuded an ancient aura.

In front of the cultivators, it was as if they saw a behemoth, and the strong pressure made it difficult for them to breathe.

Zhang Lingyuan said with a firm look in his eyes: "This is the power of the bloodline martial arts!" ”

The successive displays of the three of them shocked the cultivators, and they also subconsciously focused their attention on the one-armed Li Yiran.

Li Yiran was still holding the wine gourd, and when he saw that everyone was looking towards him, he immediately waved his hand in a chic manner:

"I'm not as fancy as them, and they're all conspicuous bags. I have this sword, which is better known as kendo. ”

While speaking, Li Yiran waved his sword casually, and it was this sword sutra that suddenly set off a violent wind, and the stone lion beside the cultivator was cut off by this sword. The power of this sword amazed everyone.

Each of the four represents the four paths of cultivation, and the strength they display also aroused great interest among the practitioners.

But they don't have to choose what they like, but they have to go through some tests by four people, and they will only choose from the 10,000 people who are suitable to follow this path and have the talent.

Ten thousand laws do not cross those who have no fate, especially when it comes to cultivation, and they cannot be forced. This is the principle they adhere to, and it is also their reverence and respect for their practice.

After the demonstration on the platform, Zhang Zhenshan, Wang Wuchen, Zhang Lingyuan and Li Yiran stood neatly on the stage, their eyes firm, and their momentum like a rainbow.

They faced the cultivators in the audience and said in an impassioned voice:

"You are the hope of the Metaphysical Academy and the future of our country. You have the responsibility to protect the world, your relatives and friends.

Now, choose your path and start your spiritual journey! ”

The cultivators were so encouraged that they began to face the four team members and set them up for an assessment.

Some cultivators began to perform the method of captivity in front of Zhang Zhenshan, hoping to get Zhang Zhenshan's approval.

Some cultivators came to Wang Wuchen's face, and Wang Wuchen only had one request, that is, they wanted to lay out a formation that was enough to satisfy him.

As for Zhang Lingyuan, who was silent, the assessment method was even simpler, that is, all cultivators who wanted to take this path attacked him, as long as they could touch the clothes, they would be considered to have passed.

However, when he came to Li Yiran, he did not set up any problems for the cultivators, nor did he let them show any strength.

Looking at the hundreds of cultivators standing in front of him, Li waved his hand, and the academicians in the back brought wine jugs respectively.

"One for each person, drinking and talking."

Naturally, the cultivators who didn't know why didn't dare to refuse, even if they didn't drink alcohol on weekdays, they couldn't help frowning at the moment and forcing themselves to take a few sips.

Seeing that several other team members had already started various tests with their cultivators, this group of cultivators who were ready to follow Li Yiran were at a loss.

As if noticing their curious and confused eyes, Li Yiran finally spoke:

"Do you know why you were allowed to drink?

Because the path of the sword is not as mysterious as their talisman and formation, and the requirements for talent are actually not as harsh as theirs.

Swordsmanship requires not talent but heart, so whether or not you can achieve success on this path does not depend on how advanced your swordsmanship is, but on your heart. ”

While speaking, Li Yiran slowly stretched out his remaining arm, and stood in front of him with his sword:

"If you cultivate this heart well, you can cut it without a sword in your hand."

As the words fell, Li Yiran's sword finger slashed out in the air, and at that moment, in the eyes of the cultivators, he seemed to hold a sharp sword in his hand.

"Click!"

A large tree not far away was broken at the waist, and the cut where it broke was very smooth.

The cultivators' eyes widened, and they froze in place for a long time before they looked at Li Yiran again.

"Do you understand now, if you want to take this path, I won't set any assessment for you.

This road is simple and simple, but it is also difficult to say, if you want to achieve great success in the way of the sword, you must first cut your own seven passions.

The heart is calm and the sword is sharp, and the heart is quiet. ”

The cultivators nodded their heads one after another, cultivating a unique teaching method, which did give them more insight into kendo.

Zhao Qi, who was not far away, saw this scene with his hands behind his back, and Kang Lei beside him was already smiling from ear to ear.

"These members of your team really have their own strengths, some are calm, some are decisive, and some are confusing."

Zhao Qi smiled and nodded:

"It's true that the four of them have their own characteristics, but they are all very good practitioners. Their presence makes me look forward to the future of the cultivation world. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Qi suddenly turned his head to look at Kang Lei: "Brother Kang, what do you think?" ”

Kang Lei smiled and said, "I think the four of them are like the four parts of a sharp sword, and no one can do without them."

And our mission is to help them sharpen their swords and make them stronger. ”

The figure that the two are talking about is stretched narrow by the sunset, and this scene seems to be frozen for a long time, more like the handover of two eras......
