Chapter 50: Inner Door Selection
Let's say that there are almost more than 50,000 people standing outside the mountain gate of the Fallen Leaf Sect today, all of them are young men and women under the age of 30, most of these people are mortals, and some are disciples of low-level sects.
Although this Fallen Leaf Sect cannot be compared with first-class forces such as the Heavenly Machine Pavilion in the Zhongzhe Space, the Fallen Leaf Sect also had its own glory!
Five hundred years ago, the Fallen Leaf Sect had another name, the Fallen Leaf Divine Sect, which was a super-first-class force alongside Tianji Tower and Ten Thousand Buddha Gates. But because of a true disciple of the Fallen Leaf Divine Sect five hundred years ago - Ye Qing!
At that time, within the Divine Sect, there were some well-known organizational gangs, and the Ye Shengmen created by Ye Qing absorbed a large number of talented disciples, and there were more than a dozen true disciples in it, and Ye Qing's cultivation was also extremely terrifying, and he achieved the realm of flying immortals at the age of less than 100 years.
And Ye Qing could have led the Fallen Leaf Divine Sect to stand at the peak of Zhongzhe, but he didn't know that he broke with the Fallen Leaf Sect due to various changes, and the members of Ye Shengzong were also taken away and became the current Ye Shengzong.
This Ye Sheng Sect is now the first sect under the first-class forces, all because of the name of Ye Qing alone. And after this, the Fallen Leaf Sect gradually declined, and even the true disciples did not come out.
For 500 years, every time a gifted disciple in the inner gate was awarded a true disciple, he would disappear within three years without any reason. Until now, only Ziyin in the Fallen Leaf Sect has become a true disciple.
There are also rumors in the cultivation world that Ye Qing was afraid that the Fallen Leaf Sect would return to its peak and personally killed the genius. However, regarding the rumors from the outside world, Ye Shengzong and even Ye Qing himself did not express anything.
It is precisely because of the fault line of the true disciples that the Fallen Leaf Divine Sect fell off the altar and became a second-rate force, the selection of disciples of those first-class forces is generally selected once every ten years, and the selection is extremely strict, some not only consider their talents, but also consider the conduct of the disciples, sometimes 100,000 or even more people come to participate in the selection, from which a hundred or even only a few disciples are selected to enter the inner gate, and the Fallen Leaf Sect recruits disciples every three years, although there are tens of thousands of people, but most of them are mortals.
The first trial of the Fallen Leaf Sect is to climb the holy mountain, this mountain has a total of ninety-nine steps, the higher the talent, the further back it can be, and this mountain was carried by the founding patriarch of the Fallen Leaf God Sect with great mana, not only for the faΓ§ade of his own sect, but also for the reason for the trial of his disciples.
In the past, the first stage of the trial of the Fallen Leaf Sect was to climb the eighty steps to pass the first layer of the trial, but now as long as you pass the sixty floors and wait until the end of the trial hour, you can directly enter the inner gate, and this time is finally shortened to four hours.
Only since the founding master of the Fallen Leaf God Sect, he is the only one who has climbed to the top so far, and even Ye Qing has stopped at the ninety-eighth floor!
At the sound of an order, tens of thousands of people rushed towards the holy mountain, and when they stepped on the first step, several people fell directly down the cliff, and most of them were inexplicably shocked when they looked at the few people who fell!
The few people who fell down were all mortals, they didn't have any foundation, and it was normal for them to suddenly be unable to resist the pressure on this step.
After seeing this scene, many people looked at the towering ninety-nine steps and chose to go down the mountain. Others, not long after stepping on the steps, couldn't hold on, some reflexively left, some held on, and faced them with the result of death.
An extremely burly figure with unconsciously exuding brilliance on his body. This young man is the young master of the Longmen Sect who wants to fight with the Eastern Emperor Taiyi at the Yaochi Festival. The top geniuses who went to the Yaochi Festival this time were all touched after seeing Yang Yun and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi fight again.
Coupled with the reason for the 100,000 deserts a few days ago, Lieyang followed the ignorance down to the mountain gate to inquire about the reason, and after understanding it clearly, Lieyang chose to experience alone.
And when he came here, he happened to meet the Fallen Leaf Sect recruiting disciples, and he also heard the legend about the holy mountain, so he came here.
Lieyang looked at a young man not far from him, a mortal boy who was struggling.
"Leave, if you don't leave, you'll die here. β
The mortal boy looked at the road ahead and said, "I am an orphan, I have no relatives, and I work hard just to survive in this world, but God doesn't give me a chance, and now, the Fallen Leaf Sect is my only chance to survive!"
The mortal boy ignored the scorching sun's dissuasion and walked forward.
Lie Yang looked at such a young man and shook his head helplessly. Some things are destined by God, you will go up if you can't, and you will stop if you can't. Sure enough, the scorching sun didn't go long before the mortal boy fell off the cliff without support.
In the blink of an eye, an hour has passed, from tens of thousands of people at the beginning, to more than 300 people today, and at this time, there are only more than 20 people who can step on 60 steps.
At this moment, the scorching sun had already stepped to the eighty-eighth step, and his goal was not to simply pass the entry selection, but to pass the entire step.
When Lieyang came to the ninetieth step, he also felt the pressure on his body, and looked back at his back, thinking that he was the only one who could reach here alone, but he didn't want to be followed by a person wrapped in a black robe.
Just as he turned around, the black-robed man overtook the scorching sun and stepped onto the ninety-first floor, but he hadn't stepped forward for a long time.
"Interesting. β
Lie Yang looked at this black-robed man, and his heart was happy, he used to sit in the well and watch the sky, thinking that his talent was unique in the world, not long after, first experienced Yang Yun and Donghuang Taiyi, and then was the black-robed man on this holy mountain.
"Bump... β
When Lieyang stepped into the ninety-first floor, the whole person felt pressure, and this pressure was far more powerful than the previous ninety steps! This pressure actually came from the Heavenly Dao, making Lieyang unable to take a single step forward.
The scorching sun had to meditate and breathe, relax himself, and use himself as the base point to slowly integrate into the heavenly path above this step.
Strange, such a holy mountain, how could this Fallen Leaf Divine Sect be lonely and straight, if such a divine object is in my Dragon Gate, it can protect my Dragon Gate for a year and ten thousand years!
While the sun was still pranayama, the black-robed man who was on the same step stepped up and came to the ninety-second step, unlike before, this time the black-robed man did not stay too long, and came directly to the ninety-seventh step before stopping his body.
Finally, the scorching sun also began to move, stepping to the ninety-second step, the strange thing is that this Heavenly Dao coercion does not have the previous strength, and the more you walk, the weaker the Heavenly Dao coercion becomes.
When he was about to step to the ninety-eighth step, the whole person was shocked and flew out, and his internal organs were damaged.
"Idiot!"
The black robe glanced at the scorching sun that was shocked out, and then stopped at the ninety-eighth order.
"You... Ahem... β
Feeling his damaged meridians, Lie Yang hurriedly meditated and breathed, but when he wanted to use the aura around his body to incorporate it into his body, he found that he had no cultivation, just like a mortal.
"You found out?"
Lie Yang asked, looking at the black robe.
The black robe glanced at the scorching sun, "The courage of the horseman." β
After the black robe finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Lieyang, Lieyang also had a deep understanding at this time, and had always thought that he was brave and resourceful before that, but because he had nothing in his eyes, perhaps he decided in his heart that such a trial would be like a homely dish for him.
There is less caution in the road construction, and any danger is enough to kill oneself.
"Poof... β
Lieyang spit out a mouthful of blood, and he had an epiphany before, but he also had a bad worry, and his heart was immediately demons. The whole person of Lieyang also passed out. At the moment when he fainted, a golden spear flew out of his primordial infant, and it didn't take long for this spear to turn into a spiritual dragon, hovering over the scorching sun's sea of consciousness and the primordial infant, guarding the scorching sun's mind.
"Dragon Lance!"
In the void not far away, a person who was staring at the ninety-nine steps was dressed in a green shirt, and he shouted softly, revealing the origin of this gun!
And the white-haired woman who observed all this in the back mountain of the Fallen Leaf Sect also snorted lightly.
"Interesting, it looks like I'm back at the top. β
