Baiyun City, Heiyu Village, there are more than 100 households in the village, although the village is poor, but the people are simple.

The village is attached to a large lake called Blackfish Lake, which has been fishing for generations. The young people in the village generally go out early and return late to make a living by fishing in boats.

It was the height of summer, and under the scorching sun, a middle-aged man drove slowly towards the village with a donkey cart.

"Uncle Li is back!" shouted a child when he saw the donkey cart, and soon the cart drove into the village.

"Uncle Li, did you bring something delicious back from the city?" several children shouted around Uncle Li.

"Bring it, bring it, give it to you, you little guys, you're really gluttonous. As he spoke, the middle-aged man rubbed the heads of several children, then took out a handful of candy from his arms and distributed it to several children.

An old man was taking advantage of the shade under the tree, smiled when he saw this, and asked, "Xiao Li, do you have any news from your trip to the city this time?"

The man surnamed Li patted his head and said, "The village chief didn't say that I forgot, I read the notice in the city that the Qingshan Sect has started recruiting disciples again, just ten days later." ”

"Qingshan Sect has recruited new disciples again? I don't know if anyone in the village will go this time. The old man took a puff of dry flue, "It's good that no one goes, and no one in the village has been selected in recent years, and it has delayed my livelihood." Uncle Li said.

"yes. Let's not talk about that, how is the fish selling this time? It's all a good fish that has been specially selected, so it should be able to sell for more money. The village chief shook his head and asked again.

"This time the fish is selling well, and now it is rumored in the city that you can become smart by eating fish, and now the price of fish is much higher than the original price of fish. Uncle Li said with a raised brow.

"Then it seems that our village can make more money this fishing season, and this year will be easier. The old man laughed a few times and said.

At dusk, after the sunset, I saw a young man in the lake rowing towards the shore in a flat boat, "Brother Yi." I heard a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy shouting.

Chu Yi parked the boat and walked towards the boy, "What's the matter, Little Four?" "Have you heard? The Bluestone Sect is going to recruit disciples, just ten days later. ”

"Really, where did you hear that?" Uncle Li had just come back from selling fish in the city, he said. The boy said.

"That shouldn't be wrong, the Qingshan Sect only recruits new disciples once every two years, and the age cannot exceed thirty years old. ”

"But over the years, many people have gone to our village, all the way to the Qingshan Sect, but none of them succeeded, and they also delayed their livelihoods, and now it is the peak fishing season, and it is estimated that no one in the village went this time. ”

"I want to go, but my family won't agree, but Brother Yi, you can give it a try. "I'd like to give it a try. ”

Chu Yi has just turned eighteen this year, and his skin is a little dark because of frequent sun exposure, but his appearance is not bad.

His father died young, and he was raised by his mother since he was a child, and his mother raised him by doing chores for the villagers and with the help of the villagers.

Chu Yi is diligent and intelligent, and he has a good ability to fish at a young age, and he has also saved some money in the past few years.

Since his mother became ill due to lovesickness three years ago, coupled with his daily busyness, Chu Yi has lived alone.

Chu Yi remembered the rumors about immortal cultivators, it was rumored that immortal cultivators were the most powerful people in this Tianyuan Continent, they could turn mountains and seas and live forever, Chu Yi couldn't imagine what kind of power it was.

There is no country on this Tianyuan Continent, only a sect composed of immortal cultivators, and the city is dependent on the sect for a living.

This city with a radius of tens of thousands of miles is attributed to the Qingshan Sect, which opens the mountain every two years to recruit disciples, and the people who come must not be less than sixteen years old and more than thirty years old, which is an opportunity for everyone to jump into the dragon gate.

But the sect accepts people with the qualifications of cultivating immortals, and I heard that it is divided into three, six, and nine grades, but even the nine grades are also one in a thousand.

Even though tens of thousands of people go to the Qingshan Sect every year, only a few dozen people are selected each time. But even so, every time the Qingshan Sect chooses a disciple, there are countless people who go.

It was night, Chu Yi was lying on the bed tossing and turning, he wanted to try, and if he succeeded, he would climb to the sky.

Chu Yi gritted his teeth and made up his mind, he didn't want to live in a small fishing village for the rest of his life, he wanted to go out and have a look. Since his mother died three years ago, he has been left alone in the family.

He felt that he had the qualifications to cultivate immortals, because he had held a stone bead in his hand since he was a child. Since I was sixteen years old two years ago, every night when the moonlight shines on the stone beads, the stone beads will emit bursts of shimmering light.

He had always felt that this stone bead was related to the legendary immortal cultivator. Although he was young, he also knew that the husband was innocent, so he never told anyone.

Chu Yi took out the stone beads, and the moonlight outside sprinkled into the house through the window, and the stone beads emitted a faint light under the illumination of the moonlight, which was quite beautiful in a flash.

After playing with him for a while, he put him in a specially sewn pocket. Chu Yi looked at the moonlight outside, and fell into a deep sleep with his yearning for immortal cultivators. Outside, the moon was still shining on the earth, but there was silence all around.

Early the next morning, Chu Yi got up to pack his things, and there was nothing he could bring, after all, he lived alone and had nothing important.

However, after bringing some money and a few sets of clothes and some dry food that he had saved from fishing in the past few years, he thought about it carefully and took a knife and put it on his body, after all, the distance was far away, and he brought a knife for self-defense. After packing up his things, Chu Yi turned around and walked towards the outside of the village.

Although there was still some time before the Bluestone Sect recruited disciples, he had no horses, so he could only walk to the Bluestone Sect in advance.

In fact, it is not far to go to Qingshi Sect, it only takes a few days to walk, but the travel fee is also a lot of money for poor fishermen.

In addition, no one has ever succeeded, so fewer and fewer people have gone over the years. And this time, he was the only one in the village who went to the Qingshi Sect by himself.

The old people and children in the village came to see Chu Yi off, and the young people in the village had to go fishing to make a living.

The village chief touched his goatee and said in a hoarse voice: "I won't stop you anymore, you should be careful all the way." ”

"Brother Yi, you will definitely be able to become an immortal. Xiao Si shouted from the side.

Chu Yi took a deep look at everyone and this village where he had lived for eighteen years, turned around and waved his hand to the outside of the village, and said silently in his heart: "Goodbye, everyone." Goodbye, Blackstone Village. ”

Chu Yi walked to the cemetery outside the village, slowly walked to his mother's grave, was stunned for a while, and his eyes began to redden.

Suddenly, Chu Yi knelt down and kowtowed three times, "Mother, the child is gone, the child will definitely become an immortal cultivator, and he will definitely get ahead!"

With that, Chu Yi stood up, looked back at the place where he had lived for eighteen years, and then turned around and walked towards the west.

That was the direction of the Bluestone Sect, and that was the direction of his strength.

This time, he didn't look back.

This time, he's all the way forward.
