Xiaobai is more than 2,000 years old, and in the one-horned deer, he can probably be regarded as in his prime.

Su Li touched its warm neck, thinking of Xiao Bai and Zhuyuan, and there was still a dull pain in his heart. Seeing Xiao Bai's appearance when she went crazy, she didn't hate it, perhaps, every life is more painful than herself.

"Xiaobai, I came this time to take away the Frost Grass. Su Li forced himself to walk out of the memories and looked at Xiaobai with a gentle smile.

Xiaobai rubbed her neck and raised her chin towards the other side of the pool.

Su Li said: "I don't have a spiritual root in this life, but I don't know what's going on, the root bone is not as strong as a mortal, and I can just practice some beast clan exercises." But if you want to sneak into Penglai to get some of my things back, you have to pass the assessment first. If the old men in Penglai find out that I don't have a spiritual root, they will definitely drive me out, as long as I take the frost grass, I can disguise myself with a spiritual root, and I can't detect the abnormality of that spirit stone. ”

The assessment of the third level of Penglai Immortal Sect is to test the grade of the spiritual root through the spirit stone. Generally, the spiritual roots of monks are divided into five elements, and there are a few special ones such as Su Yunhuang, who has dual spiritual roots, which means that she can practice the supernatural powers of two elements at the same time, and the strength of her spiritual power is far better than that of monks of the same level, which is extremely rare among monks. As for other single-attribute cultivators, what is the attribute of the spiritual root that they are born with, and the aura after refining it has the characteristics of that attribute. The spirit stone can't really spy on a monk's spiritual root, but only judge the quality of the spiritual root by detecting the attribute purity of the spiritual power, and the richer and purer the attribute elements in the spiritual power, the higher the quality of the spiritual root.

Su Li is an exception, she doesn't have a spiritual root, because the spiritual energy can't be refined and transformed, and she doesn't have the characteristics of any element, if she tests on the spirit stone, the spirit test stone will definitely have no reaction. However, if she took the Frost Condensation Grass and refined it, her spiritual power would show quite high-quality attributes for a long time. The Frost Condensation Grass has both the dual attributes of water and wood, but Su Li doesn't plan to let the two attributes appear at the same time, it will be too eye-catching, and sooner or later it will be seen as abnormal. She had thousands of years of cultivation experience, so she naturally knew how to separate two different attributes of spiritual power.

From the moment she knew that she had the opportunity to participate in the assessment of Penglai Immortal Sect, she had planned all this, so when Su Yunhuang asked her about the attribute of the spiritual root, she did not hesitate to lie to her and said that it was the water spiritual root.

"But if I take the frost grass with me, you will only be able to eat ordinary grass in the future. Su Li touched its chin and said, "But don't worry, after a while, the Langhuan Ancient Land will open, and there will be many thousand-year-quality immortal grasses in it, I will pick some back to compensate you!"

At this time, it was already the middle of the moon, and when the condensation of the Qin Spirit Frost was completed, Su Li no longer waited, walked to the other side of the pool with Xiaobai, squatted down, carefully brushed away the grass, revealing an inconspicuous grass hidden in the grass.

How many immortals and mortals are fighting for the frost grass, it looks like it is just a palm-sized white grass, cool to the touch, exuding a faint fragrance. Su Li took out a delicate jade shovel that had already been prepared from his body, like this kind of spiritual artifact fairy grass, it is generally impossible to touch the iron, otherwise the quality will be damaged, and only the jade can be contacted because it contains a trace of spiritual energy.

Su Li dug out the frost grass lightly, and the frost grass that had left the soil trembled slightly, and the grass blades were pulled inward, turning into a blue and white ball of light. Su Li remembered that Xiao Bai also took the frost grass in his mouth like this back then, and spit it out when he arrived at Penglai. As an immortal grass, the Condensing Frost Grass already has a certain sense of self-preservation, and if you just swallow it in your stomach, you can't get the essence of it, and it will take a lot of time to completely refine it. Fortunately, Su Li didn't need to completely refine the Condensation Frost Grass, as long as she refined a little, it would be enough for her to cope with the subsequent assessment.

Su Li sat down cross-legged and said to Xiaobai: "It will take some time for me to refine the Frost Condensation Grass, you can help me protect the Fa, and if someone from Penglai comes, you will remind me." ”

Xiao Bai rubbed Su Li's arm affectionately and let out a well-behaved low sound.

Su Li immediately stopped delaying time, and after swallowing the ball of light, he closed his eyes and meditated on refining.

The ball of light appeared in Su Li's spirit pool, flying around aimlessly, but there was no way out. Su Li ran the magic technique, and the spirit pool suddenly gave birth to a monstrous wave, wrapping the frost light ball into it. The abundant essence of water and wood suddenly overflowed, dyeing a piece of sea a light blue color. I don't know how long it took, the frost grass finally gave up resistance, and the ball of light trembled slightly, making a breaking sound, and changed into the appearance of a fairy grass again, quietly levitating above the vast blue waves.

Su Li was not in a hurry to refine it completely, seeing that it was soft, and that he also had enough water attribute spiritual power, he withdrew from the spirit pool, breathed a long sigh of relief, and opened his eyes.

"Look at the time, it's time for me to go. Su Li looked up at the sky, and met Xiaobai's reluctant gaze again.

"Don't worry, I'll come to see you again. Su Li smiled and touched Xiaobai's neck. "I said that one day I would take you to the heavens and help you find a beautiful doe. ”

Xiao Bai seemed to have a shy expression on his face, and he snorted without turning his face.

Su Li sneered. "I'm embarrassed to be a lot older, don't worry, anyway, I'm reincarnated in my life, and there will always be a life that can do it. ”

Although Su Li had a smile on his face, his eyes unconsciously dimmed. Xiaobai felt the sorrow in her heart, turned her head, and rubbed her neck with pity.

"Do you feel sorry for me?" Su Li stroked its warm fur and said lightly, "But I'm almost used to it......"

The people of Penglai Immortal Sect only felt that something was wrong when it was almost dawn.

"What?, Qin Lingshuang suddenly melted?" Above the main hall, all the elders looked at the monk who reported the news with wide eyes and disbelief.

Song Zhao felt that his head was very painful, the Slight Frost Forest had not had an accident for more than 2,000 years, why did something happen as soon as it reached his hands?

"Back to the elders, in the middle of last night, the Qin Ling Frost had already condensed, but in just half an hour, those Qin Ling Frost that had not yet been collected slowly turned into the soil and fell into the soil. ”

"Then why did you come back at this time?"

Song Zhao was also a little helpless. "Because at the beginning, it was only a few Qin Ling Frost that showed signs of melting, and the disciples didn't pay much attention to it, until half an hour ago, the assessment monks suffered heavy casualties, and many people withdrew from the assessment, and the disciples sent people to investigate around, only to find that there was no Qin Ling Frost in the forest. ”

The three main peak elders glanced at each other, their brows furrowed. "I'm afraid that Venerable Bai has made a mistake, so let's ask the sect master to come out!"

The Elder of Cloud Mist Mountain nodded and said, "I'm going to invite the sect master, you guys go and preside over the assessment first, if there is such a big thing, the candidates also need to be appeased." ”

In the past, because of the large number of Qin Ling Frost, a considerable number of candidates would rely on collecting and dodging to clear the customs, but this year, Qin Ling Frost suddenly melted and decreased sharply, resulting in candidates having to snatch each other in order to pass the assessment, and the competition was extremely fierce.

When Song Zhao reported that there were 4,000 candidates who had withdrawn due to injury, the brows of several elders furrowed even tighter.

Before the appointed hour arrived, the assessment was forced to be suspended, and all the monks gathered outside the frost forest with bleak faces, and the sun slowly rose in the east.

Because the elders of Yunwu Mountain went to invite the sect master, the two elders of Yunji Mountain and Yunxia Mountain presided over the assessment.

Elder Yunji Mountain was a monk with a fairy wind bone, his beard was white, but his face was white and smooth, and he looked like he was no more than in his early thirties. The elder of Yunxia Mountain is a woman, beautiful and dusty, but her demeanor is solemn and solemn, which makes people feel awe.

Elder Yunji Mountain sighed, turned his head and asked Song Zhao, "Are you saying that the Qin Spirit Frost collected earlier has not melted?"

Song Zhao replied respectfully: "Back to the elder's words, yes, the Qin Lingshuang that was collected into the jade bottle is safe and sound. ”

Elder Yunji Mountain nodded, and instead asked the remaining candidates, "Among you, there are monks who have collected the Soul Frost and stand on the left. ”

Hearing this, the monks who held the Soul Frost in their hands couldn't help but look happy.

The faces of several elders were even more ugly—there were only three or four hundred?

According to the original plan, they thought that there should be two or three thousand people who passed the assessment at this level, and then they would be screened according to the quality of the spiritual root, who would have expected that there would only be three hundred?

Seeing that Elder Yunji Mountain was silent, Elder Yunxia Mountain opened his mouth and said, "Senior Brother, do you think we should let the rest of the disciples re-evaluate, or should we only accept these three hundred this year?"

"The stakes are very high, next year is the period of Zhou Shan's discussion of the law, if it weren't for that, this year would not have accepted so many new students, only three or four hundred, I'm afraid that the sect master would not agree. ”

"That'...... Let's wait for the Sect Master to come before making a decision. ”

A few people were depressed, when they saw two rays of light passing over the frost forest and coming towards the place where everyone had gathered. The glow came in a blink of an eye, and after it landed, everyone saw the appearance of the two people in the glow, one was similar to the clothes of several elders, it was the elder of Yunwu Mountain, and the other was dressed in a Xuan-colored Taoist robe, with kind eyebrows and eyes, but it was the sect master of Penglai Immortal Sect, Xuanfeng Daozun.

"Sect Master. Several elders saluted the comer.

Xuanfeng Daozun glanced at it and asked, "Today is the day to select new students, didn't Rong Jun come?"

Elder Yunwu Mountain smiled and said, "Sect Master, have you forgotten, today is sixteen, and Rong Jun doesn't go out on the sixteenth every month." ”

Xuanfeng Daozun suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "It's really been a retreat for a long time, I don't know the time, no matter what, Rong Jun's temperament will not accept apprentices." ”

The Elder of Yunji Mountain took a step forward and truthfully reported the situation here to the Xuanfeng Dao Venerable.

"This ......" Xuanfeng Dao Venerable also frowned when he heard this, "Don't hide it from a few elders, this frost condensation grass is afraid that it will be eaten by Venerable Bai." ”

"What!" several elders were shocked, "this, this, how can you eat this!"

Xuanfeng Daozun smiled bitterly: "It's useless for the elders to be angry, this immortal herb is owned by Venerable Bai, for so many years, my Penglai Immortal Sect has also benefited a lot, if the Venerable wants to eat this immortal grass, we can only obey orders." ”

Venerable Bai can be said to be the longest-lived immortal beast of Penglai Immortal Sect, and it is the immortal pet of the ancestor Jialuo Zhenren, and his status in Penglai Immortal Sect is extremely transcendent, and the sect masters of all dynasties are respectful to it. Xuanfeng Daozun thought that he was smiling and selling well to Venerable Bai, but Venerable Bai ignored him, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"In the future, there will be no more spirit frost......" Yunxia Mountain Chief honestly regretted. This Qin Ling Frost is full of spiritual power far better than ordinary spirit crystals, refining a piece has the effect of penance for a month, and it contains the best water and wood essence, for the monks of the water and wood spirit root is a great supplement, long-term refining can even improve the quality of the spirit root, and on her Yunxia Mountain, the vast majority of monks are the second line of water and wood spirit root.

"It's useless to sigh. Xuanfeng Daozun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "These more than 300 monks who are lucky enough to harvest the Qin Spirit Frost will be directly admitted to the sect." The remaining 3,000 or so monks will be admitted to the outer gate for cultivation first, and after three months, they will take another re-examination and admit 1,000 to the inner gate. This assessment error is our Penglai's fault, this outer door practice for three months, so let's compensate those monks at that time. ”

"That's what the Sect Master said. Several elders nodded yes.

Xuanfeng Daozun set his eyes on the more than 300 monks who had Qin Lingshuang, and said with a smile: "These monks are also people with luck, and you also know that on the path of cultivation, sometimes luck is more important than talent." You first take these monks to the spirit stone assessment, choose the appropriate ones to be included in the sect, and the rest of these outer monks will be handed over to Song Zhao. ”

"Yes. ”

Several elders were about to make a move, when they suddenly heard an exclamation from Xuanfeng Dao Venerable: "There is actually a monk of the third level of Qi refining who has passed the assessment?"
