Half a month has passed since he entered Jiang Liejun's door, and Xiyun has been inquiring about the news of the artifact for half a month, although he has not inquired about the specific location of the artifact, but it is not nothing.

First of all, the current generalissimo of the Shenwei Army, Mu Shenwu, the strength of the Immortal Venerable, hopes to cultivate a group of young and extremely talented teenagers to form a team, and then serve as the escort team of the princes and princesses of the Wind and Thunder Empire to protect the princes and princesses into the Imperial Secret Realm Proving Ground. In addition, Xiyun also heard that the three holy sects each have a inheritance treasure, although they don't know what kind of treasure they are and what abilities they have, but it is certain that they all have very powerful powers, maybe the inheritance treasure of a certain holy sect is the legendary artifact.

Now that he knew that there was a one-third chance to give it a try, Xiyun proposed to Jiang Liejun that he wanted to participate in the selection of the escort team.

"If you have made up your mind, your father will support you, and you will definitely be chosen with your strength, so the old man wants to tell you a few words."

"Ask my father-in-law to teach me."

"There are five children in the Holy Shrine today. The eldest prince is the strongest but has no city government, and leading troops to fight is a good hand, but now there is only one dynasty in the entire Wind Thunder Prefecture, and there is no war in the four seas, so the eldest prince will not be able to become the next emperor. The second prince is thoughtful, his strength is acceptable, he is familiar with the way of the king, and he also has a high reputation in the court, and he is a strong candidate for the throne. The third princess is a girl, and according to the etiquette system, she is not qualified to compete for the throne, but today's saint is open-minded, and maybe the princess will inherit the throne and be the first empress of my dynasty. The fourth prince is humble, and there are many old ministers who support him in the court, and if he becomes the emperor, it will be a blessing for the people. But he lacks the domineering spirit to suppress civil and military officials, so he is afraid that he will not be able to convince the public. Although the five princes are young but extremely talented, they echo the dragon qi inherited from our dynasty at a young age, if he becomes the emperor, he can stimulate the power of the dragon qi of our dynasty to the greatest extent, and then our dynasty will not be restrained by the Three Holy Sects. ”

"What does the stepfather want to say?" Xiyun probably guessed what Jiang Liejun meant.

"As a father, he is an official and honest, and he never takes sides, but if you go to participate in the selection, it represents the meaning of being a father. Whether you choose the prince or the princess in the end, the old husband will support you. Your spiritual vein is special, the five elements spiritual vein, the dragon of the imperial road, you have long been famous inside and out, once you make a choice, there will definitely be a lot of eyes staring, so you must be cautious. ”

"Yun'er understands."

Xiyun said goodbye to Jiang Liejun and began to prepare for the selection, and after handing over the affairs of the family to Ding Ke, he came to participate in the selection under the leadership of Jiang Liejun.

"Teacher, you're here too."

In the Marshal of the Shenwei Army's Mansion, Jiang Liejun took Xiyun to meet the current Generalissimo of the Shenwei Army, Mu Shenwu. Mu Shenwu was wearing a silver armor, with a resolute face, a tall figure, and sharp eyes.

"This is the old man's righteous son Xiyun," Jiang Liejun introduced Xiyun to Mu Shenwu, and then introduced Mu Shenwu to Xiyun, "Yun'er, this is the current generalissimo of the Shenwei Army, Mu Shenwu, Mu Shuai." ”

"Mu Shuai is good."

"I have long heard that there is a young man with dragon veins and five elements in the teacher's family, and today I finally saw it." Mu Shenwu looked Xiyun up and down, and the dragon-shaped spirit veins that Xiyun had disguised were clearly detected by him, "The strength of the immortal general, it is really a hero out of a young man." ”

"Mu Shuai has won the award."

"Inside, please." The father and son were invited into the mansion by Mu Shenwu. A total of eighty-seven famous disciples participated in the selection this time, and they duel in pairs to determine the last ten to form the final escort team. Most of these eighty-seven people were the children of the ministers of the court, and there were also young disciples from the Three Holy Sects. The ministers of the court and the central government naturally hope that their children will gain an advantage and be chosen by the future monarch, so it is needless to say that there is no need to talk about the glory and wealth in the future. The mind of the Three Holy Sects is to assist an obedient monarch and continue to suppress the Wind and Thunder Empire. Although it is said that the Shenwei Army is extremely powerful, at most it is on an equal footing with the Three Holy Sects, and if the three Sects work together, it is estimated that the Shenwei Army will not be able to support it for long. The selection competition lasted for a total of seven days, and three of the final winners were disciples of the Three Holy Sects.

It's time for the princes and princesses to finally choose their own escorts to enter the proving ground. The people of the Three Holy Sects invariably chose the Four Princes, and the Four Princes were humble and had no ambitions, and they were the best to control. In the end, the four chose the second prince, the two chose the fifth prince, the eldest prince and the princess have not yet been chosen, and the last person who needs to make a choice is Xiyun.

"He's the dragon vein and the five elements."

"It's him, the strength of the immortal general, one person has nine of us."

"All his games are instant kills, and you can't see his true strength at all."

"Who will he choose in the end?"

"It must be His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

The other people who had already made their choice were talking, and Xiyun carefully looked at the princes and princesses present. Xiyun's only purpose is for the artifact, to be honest, the future of the Wind and Thunder Empire has little to do with him, but to act conveniently, it seems that the princess is the best choice.

"Your Highness the Princess." Xiyun walked up to the princess and knelt down on one knee to salute, everyone was very surprised that Xiyun would choose the princess, even the princess herself couldn't believe it, and hesitated for a while before letting Xiyun calm down.

"Childe, why did you choose to be a concubine?"

"I have no interest in conspiracy, and I only came to participate in the selection for the convenience of the future. The eldest prince has excellent strength, and even if he encounters danger, he believes that the old monsters of the royal family will go to the rescue. It's Her Royal Highness the Princess, a girl who stepped into a dangerous testing ground alone...... I don't want Your Majesty to lose her precious daughter. ”

"Is the concubine too weak?"

"The eldest prince is a skill honed in the army, and there are many enemies and demons on the battlefield, and only the eldest prince can win in the trial in terms of personal ability. You and several other princes have lived within the walls of the palace since you were a child, and have you ever killed demon beasts? Xiyun looked into the princess's eyes and said.

The princess was born very beautifully, with waist-length black hair and a snow-white dress, looking at Xiyun's clothes as if they were still the same style. Heterochromatic eyes, one blue and one pink, although only the strength of the Venerable, the spirit vein seems to be an ancient divine bird that is more advanced than Zhu Yu's body.

"Gong, Gongzi."

Xiyun stared at the princess like this until she looked at the princess shyly.

"The subordinate is rude." Xiyun turned his head to look around, then turned around, "Your Highness Princess, it's time to go." ”

"Okay, okay."

The princess followed Shioyun and walked forward. This so-called royal testing ground is actually an Immortal Emperor Secret Realm, but this Immortal Emperor Secret Realm is not the same as other secret realms, this secret realm belongs to the royal family exclusively, and every emperor of the royal family has the control of the secret realm and can open the secret realm at any time. And the first owner of this secret realm should be the ancestor of the royal family, and many immortal emperors in the royal follow-up seem to have walked out of this secret realm.

"Childe."

The princess stopped at the edge of a cliff, and she seemed to feel a magical energy calling to her from the depths of the abyss.

"What's wrong?"

"Below."

Xiyun also came to the edge of the cliff, and when he walked to the edge of the cliff, he pulled the princess back.

"There's a mysterious force down there, exuding an aura from the outside." Xiyun's eyes turned golden, and he looked towards the abyss, and vaguely saw that there seemed to be a palace under the abyss, "Do you want to go down and have a look?" ”

"Will it be dangerous?"

Shioyun looked at the princess to ask for the princess's opinion, and the princess looked at Shioyun's eyes, and at this time Shioyun's eyes had returned to their original appearance. The princess didn't seem to dare to go down, but she was really curious about what was down there.

"Let's go." Xiyun's heart moved, and the golden light surrounded himself and the princess, and then the golden armor attached to the two of them. The two of them jumped off the cliff on their front and back feet, and slowly fell to the bottom of the abyss, which was at least a kilometer deep according to the speed at which they fell.

"Go."

The tide clouds fused with the power of ice and fire, and a huge fireball was wrapped in ice, and the fireball wrapped in the ice ball flew into the air to illuminate a large area. The bottom of the entire cliff is east-west, running hundreds of miles from north to south, and the tide cloud sensed that the palace had been completely presented in front of the two of them at this time. The north and south limits of the palace are already touching the cliff face.

"Go in and have a look?"

"There won't be any danger, will it?"

"It's dark down here, not to mention ordinary cultivators, even demon beasts are difficult to survive underneath." Xiyun said, "Don't worry, there is no breath of human activity here. Xiyun's golden eyes scanned the entire palace and found nothing unusual.

"Okay."

The princess followed Xiyun into the palace, and as soon as Xiyun and the two entered the palace, the torches on the walls around the palace lit up, illuminating the entire palace. Xiyun retracted his strength, and the fireball wrapped in the ice hockey ball outside turned into red and blue starlight and dispersed, and the armor on Xiyun and the two disappeared.

"It doesn't seem like anything special." The princess looked around, and the interior of this palace was very ordinary, with the usual royal decorations, the usual high hall, and an ordinary dragon chair.

"Really?" Xiyun raised his hand and shot a burst of energy towards the dragon chair, the golden energy turned into a golden dragon and rushed to the dragon chair but was blocked by an enchantment, the dragon hit the enchantment and instantly dispersed into starlight, countless starlight was absorbed by the golden dragon statue coiled on the eight pillars in the main hall, and the eight dragons came to life in an instant, coiled on the pillar and stared at Xiyun and the two.

"Childe." The princess subconsciously grabbed Xiyun's arm, Xiyun looked at the eight dragons and summoned their own power, the golden dragon hovered around Xiyun and let out a dragon groan, and the eight dragons turned back into stone statues. Xiyun retracted his strength and took the princess's hand and walked to the dragon chair, as soon as he got close to the dragon chair, he was blocked by the enchantment, Xiyun put his hand on the enchantment, and the enchantment shattered as soon as he exerted force.

"Princess, please be seated."

Xiyun motioned for the princess to sit on the dragon chair, and before the princess could react, Xiyun forcibly pressed the princess on the dragon chair. As soon as the princess sat on the dragon chair, a powerful momentum radiated, and the hall was instantly filled with golden starlight.

"I didn't expect that five hundred years later, there would still be royal disciples coming to the old man."

An abrupt voice sounded, and the starlight in the hall slowly condensed into the appearance of an old man standing under the high platform.

"See the Ancestor." When the princess saw the old man, she quickly got up from the dragon chair, ran down the high platform, and knelt down in front of the old man. Xiyun walked slowly to the high platform, came to the old man, and bowed slightly.

"Get up." The old man in blond hair and brocade clothes motioned for the princess to flatten up, and then he looked at Xiyun again, and suddenly his expression stiffened, and he just wanted to kneel down and salute Xiyun, but was stopped by Xiyun's thoughts.

"The old slave pays homage to the Lord God." The old man saluted to Xiyun in his heart, and Xiyun nodded at the old man, and this matter passed.

"Dare to ask which royal ancestor is the senior?" Shioyun asked.

"Ah," the old man reacted, "The old man is a third-generation royal disciple, who practiced in the secret realm earlier, and specially built such a palace at the bottom of this cliff in order to ascend. Today, you have the opportunity to come here, and the old man will not be stingy with that little inheritance. Where are the royal descendants? ”

"The juniors are here." The princess knelt before the old man again.

"Take over the old man's inheritance."

"Yes." The princess raised her hands. Looking at the old man again, I saw that the old man raised his hand, and countless golden powers gathered towards the old man's hands, and finally turned into a full, pure golden spiritual power ball. The old man handed the golden ball of spiritual power into the princess's hand.

"The old man's time has also come, I hope you can fly to the upper realm one day with the old man's inheritance, and the old man is waiting for you in the upper realm......" The old man's voice gradually fell, and his whole person slowly turned into starlight and dissipated.

"Yes." The princess stood up with the golden ball of spiritual power in her hand.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, absorb and refine this spiritual power ball, and your subordinates will protect the Dharma for you."

"Thank you, Childe."
