After the unhappy parting, Tang Zhening and Li Bai did not speak for three days - to be precise, Li Bai wanted to persuade one or two more, but Tang Zhening refused to communicate.

Originally, when he entered the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest, Tang Zhening planned to tell Li Bai about the future plans of the panda clan, but because of this, he was delayed.

But it's okay, this matter is not in a hurry.

She still needs to inquire about the development of the beast population in the sect. Chu Ji is busy, and it is impossible for her to act alone, so wait.

Unexpectedly, when she came out of the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest, Chu Jiwei was waiting outside.

"You ......" Tang Zhening was stunned, "You're not busy today?" ”

Chu Jiwei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but his expression was indifferent: "I have seen everything I should see, and the rest is to write an invitation." ”

"Handwritten?" Tang Zhening was a little surprised.

It's all His Holiness, and the invitation still needs to be handwritten?

Chu Jiwei took out an invitation card directly from the flower world and showed it to her.

The invitation was black, with dark gold patterns on it, low-key luxury and forced, and the moment it was opened, the scorching light exploded violently, and she avoided her gaze in time to avoid injury.

"That was ...... just now," she asked, not daring to open her eyes.

"The invitation is written with special ink and fusion of the stars, and ordinary people will die just by opening it. Your words are not fatal, but you will be temporarily blind and unable to read the content at all. Chu Ji said without hurry.

Tang Zhening said in hindsight: "You are ...... Angry? ”

Hearing this, Chu Jiwei's reaction was a little strange, and he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then said a little unnaturally: "I'm not angry." ”

"You're just angry!" Tang Zhening said unhappily.

In the past, Chu Jiwei would not have done this to her, even if it was only for a short period of blindness, he would not let her take such a risk.

He couldn't bear her at all grievances!

Thinking of this, Tang Zhening couldn't help but be stunned.

Actually...... Is that so?

"That's your delusion." Chu Jiwei was a little weak-hearted, and his tone was not very tough.

The eyes of the two met and parted as if they were burned.

"That's right!" Tang Zhening changed the topic uncomfortably: "You said before that I should go to Jiushengtai...... When do I go? ”

Hearing this, Chu Jiwei's expression became calm and said, "I have already arranged this matter for you, and I will accompany you tomorrow." ”

"That...... Has Aurelia been on the stage of nine? Tang Zhening had nothing to say.

Chu Jiwei nodded, "She walked to the fourth stage, with her age, she is already good, and now she is a disciple of the outer gate, and after a few years of training, she can enter the inner gate." ”

He knew that Tang Tang was looking for something to say, but ...... I don't know why, I just don't want to let her go.

"Oh, then I'll see her when I have time." Tang Zhening pulled out a dry laugh.

Chu Jiwei nodded, as if agreeing with her words.

"By the way, Senior Brother Xue said before that no matter what your identity, as long as you worship the Nine Gods Sect, you will have to go to the Nine Ascension Stage, do you also have to go to the Nine Ascension Stage?" Tang Zhening finally thought of a more technical question.

"I've walked by." Chu Ji said in danger.

Ha?

Tang Zhening looked incredulous, "Didn't you say that you hadn't been to the Nine Gods Sect before?" ”

"I just don't remember." Chu Ji said dangerously: "I said before that my master is my aunt and grandmother. When I was young, my parents would occasionally go to secret places together, and they couldn't take me there, but they didn't feel comfortable handing me over to their subordinates, so they always entrusted me to my aunt and grandmother. My aunt and grandmother once took me through the Jiusheng Terrace, I have no relevant memory, only heard my mother say that I went to the fifth platform, and I was qualified to be a disciple of the outer sect. ”

"Then ......" Tang Zhening was curious, "How old were you when you walked the Nine Ascending Stage?" "If you don't have memory, you must be very young, but you can go to the fifth station......

But I heard Chu Ji say dangerously: "Two and a half years old." ”

Tang Zhening's eyes widened, this is too perverted.

Chu Jiwei explained: "I was carried by my father to go through the gate of Salyo when I was born at the full moon, Lu Zhanting...... Don't look at those envoys, all of them seem to be at peace now. When I was young, they were trying to come out and break through, but they didn't toss me a lot, and when I was still breastfeeding, they were already being dragged by them to do all kinds of training. By the time I could remember, I had already mastered the basic applications of various weapons. ”

Tang Zhening: "......" What is this? Early education in the world of cultivators?

Chu Jiwei was a good talker, and he took Tang Zhening to Jiushengtai early the next morning.

"This is the Nine Ascending Platforms?" Tang Zhening raised his head, looked at the towering building in front of him, which seemed to be a tower and a tree, covered by tree branches, spiraling into the sky, and asked.

Chu Jiwei nodded, pointed to the inconspicuous cave door in front of him and said, "You walk in, and then climb up as much as you can." Every time you go up, the lights of that one will turn on, and if you go up to the ninth, not only will the entire nine-rise platform be lit up, but there will also be nine bells. ”

Tang Zhening stepped on his feet and looked up, "Can this Jiusheng platform only enter one person at a time?" ”

"Of course not." Xue Qiushu, who also came along, explained: "If there are many people, it is impossible to judge the number of units that each person has arrived at by the lights. But don't worry, the Nine Ascension Platform itself is a star weapon, and it will record the situation of every cultivator. ”

Tang Zhening didn't talk nonsense, waved his hand and said, "Then I'll go in." ”

[I'll help you go through the road first, and then you can know it again later. Tang Zhening said to Li Bai in the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest.

Li Bai was still a little awkward, but at this time, he still opened his mouth to remind: [Be careful, the first appearance of our panda clan depends on you. 】

Tang Zhening pouted, [It seems that there is a time when you don't rely on me. 】

As soon as the words fell, she had already stepped into the Nine Ascending Stage.

Suddenly, Tang Zhening felt that he had entered another world, and when he looked back, the door of the cave was gone, and in front of him was a road wrapped in light with no end in sight, and on both sides of the road was darkness that could not be seen.

Tang Zhening directly turned into the body and embarked on this road that he didn't know when it would end.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a realization rose in her heart: the first platform of the Nine Ascension Platforms should test the perseverance of the cultivators.

How long can a cultivator walk, how far can he go, and what he can go to test is not only talent, not only understanding, not just luck, but also the indomitable spirit of not giving up on himself in the face of setbacks, persevering in finding hope in desperate situations.

However, even if he sees through this, this level is not easy for Tang Zhening.

In such quiet and silent darkness, memories are too easy to breed quietly.
