Chapter Thirty-Seven: Waiting for Work with Ease
On the second day, as soon as the genius was faintly bright, Yan Jingchen walked out of the miscellaneous office alone and walked towards the worship hall in the sect.
As the name suggests, the worship hall is the place to receive the offerings in the sect, although the Lu sect is a well-known immortal sect on the mainland, but it also has countless shops and businesses, after all, every monk who has become an immortal and entered the sainthood has amazing cultivation needs.
Coming to the front of the worship hall, Yan Jingchen stepped in and found that there was only one young disciple in the huge worship hall who was sweeping the ground with his head down, he walked over and asked politely: "Senior brother early, may I ask if the moon in the sect is received here?"
Hearing this, the young disciple stopped what he was doing, raised his head and glanced at Yan Jingchen and said, "The monthly salaries in the sect are handed over to the elders on time every month, if you have any questions, you can ask your master, I don't care about these here." ”
Yan Jingchen scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "My master is Sage Lu, and I have never received the monthly salary from the sect in the past few months, and I ask Senior Brother Lao to help check it." ”
"What are you talking about?!You are Yan Jingchen. The disciple who swept the floor obviously didn't expect that it was the disciple of the Sage Lu who came to find him, and after a slightly broken exclamation, he immediately seemed to be a different person, and respectfully saluted Yan Jingchen and said: "My name is Yang Hong, the master is not here today, I am alone here, and please come here with the saint." ”
Under the leadership of Yang Hong, the two walked back and forth in the worship hall several times, Yan Jingchen was confused by this drama-like action, and just wanted to ask, suddenly heard a strange sound under his feet, and the next moment he instinctively jumped back far away.
"Saints, don't be afraid, there are treasures accumulated by the sect for tens of thousands of years in the worship hall, and naturally there will be some unique anti-theft measures. Wait a minute, I'll help you check the latest monthly payment records. The young disciple patted a large cabinet that had risen from the ground and said.
Listening to his explanation, Yan Jingchen was also a little embarrassed by his overreaction just now. However, Yang Hong didn't care about these things, and saw that he took out a watermelon-sized ball from the cabinet that had just risen.
The ball is turquoise, I don't know if it is made of the above material, and it can be seen that this ball has excellent light transmittance, crystal clear like crystal.
Yang Hong held the round ball in his arms, and his mouth was full of words, and after a while, he said: "I checked just now, you have three months of monthly income that you haven't received, I don't know if you want pills, demon pills or other things." ”
Hearing that he could receive so many things, Yan Jingchen almost burst out happy, but he still held back his joy and said, "Just exchange some demon pills for me." ”
Coming out of the worship hall, Yan Jingchen was quite happy, he didn't expect that he had saved such a large fortune in the sect, and this time he received the moon salary, and he exchanged it for twenty demon pills. In this way, he has a few more chances of winning in the upcoming rookie competition.
After everything is ready, Yan Jingchen is now ready for everything, waiting for the arrival of the newcomer Dabi.
Early in the morning of this day, the sound of the bell spread to all corners of the Immortal Emperor City, and the newcomers within each of the five major sects were held on schedule.
Only fifteen people from the Lu Sect participated in the big competition this time, but nearly 100 people came to watch the battle. Everyone first gathered in front of the Yang Temple, and after listening to Elder Lu Fengzhi's teachings, they all moved to the martial arts arena.
After everyone was assembled, Elder Qingfeng walked out of the crowd and came to the center of the martial arts arena, pressed his hands on the ground, and suddenly exerted his strength, and saw that complex patterns appeared on the ground of the martial arts arena.
After the patterns on the ground were fully revealed, Elder Qingfeng spoke: "This time, the newcomer competition of the Lu Clan will use the form of a point system to select elite disciples. ”
Qingfeng paused, saw that no one was noisy, nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "This is a space circle I have set up, in the circle you can rest assured to fight, because it is only your divine consciousness that enters the circle, and those who are unable to continue the big competition due to serious injuries or death will be teleported back to the circle and return to their own physical bodies." ”
Hearing this, on the originally quiet and orderly martial arts arena, some people began to whisper, talking and discussing the old disciples of the sect who came to watch the battle, and among the fifteen people who were about to participate in it, none of them questioned it, quietly waiting for Qingfeng to continue to introduce the rules.
"Very well! I think you've prepared for the big competition, so I'll cut it short. There are twelve tokens hidden in this circle, and once each token is obtained, it will automatically release Dao power fluctuations towards the surrounding area, and all those in the circle will receive the specific location of the token. The big competition will end in four hours, and the final ranking will be determined by the number of tokens each person has earned. Or maybe the competition between you is too fierce, and the remaining number of people in the big formation becomes five, and the big competition will be terminated early. ”
Qingfeng introduced the rules, and then looked at everyone's faces full of expectations, the better the results in the newcomer competition, it means that the more resources they can obtain in the sect in the future.
"Since there are no objections, let's get started. Come, everybody, and I'll bring you into the circle. ”
Fifteen new disciples of the sect, including Yan Jingchen, came to the center of the venue one after another.
Qingfeng arranged for them to stand in a specific position, and when he passed in front of Yan Jingchen, his face was obviously a little displeased, and he pointed to a position near the center in the circle and said, "You stand in that position." ”
After the arrangements were made, Qingfeng silently recited the mantra in his heart, and the magic circle on the martial arts arena suddenly shone brightly, and the next moment everyone had already entered the formation, and only one of their bodies remained on the field.
"You said that in this big competition, those five people can stand out and represent our Lu Sect to participate in the big competition of Immortal Emperor City?"
"Of course it's our Baili Rong Senior Sister, she has already broken through to the Lidao Realm, and she is the highest cultivator among the newcomers. "There is such a lively event, and Cao Qianyan's participation is naturally indispensable.
As soon as Cao Qianyan's words came out, it immediately attracted people's opposition, "You are not right, I heard that Yan Jingchen, the disciple of the saint, is also in the realm of the Dao, and with the guidance of the saint, Baili Rong may not be higher than him in terms of cultivation." ”
"Hmph, just that dead monkey, I can knock him on his stomach with one hand. Thinking of that day, Yan Jingchen humiliated himself with a monkey fist, and the anger in Cao Qianyan's chest didn't hit anywhere.
"Don't make any noise, Elder Qingfeng has begun to call up the picture in the magic circle. ”
As soon as his words fell, Elder Qingfeng waved his sleeves, and fifteen different images appeared in the void, and everyone stopped talking, each looking at the juniors they cared about.
After Yan Jingchen entered the magic circle, he found that he was in a chaotic stone forest, where strange rocks were craggy, and there were twists and turns everywhere, making it impossible to discern the direction for a while.
As soon as he took a few steps forward, Yan Jingchen found that on a stone platform in front of him, a golden token was prominently placed.
Yan Jingchen was very surprised, and said in his heart that this token was too easy to find, as if it was deliberately placed in front of him.
For such an unreasonable matter, Yan Jingchen couldn't help but think to himself, could it be that Elder Qingfeng deliberately placed the token here in order to take care of me, and then he remembered that he had offended Elder Qingfeng a few days ago, and denied his speculation.
So he first silently noted the location of the token, and then moved a few boulders nearby to cover the token.
Anyway, there is still a lot of time, and getting the token too early will only make you the target of public criticism, so it is better to see more about other people's situations.
Logically speaking, if you want to be in the top five with twelve tokens, you must get at least three tokens. The scope of this stone forest is not very large, and after a while, Yan Jingchen walked out of the stone forest.
After walking out of the stone forest, Yan Jingchen began his wandering journey, and when he met several senior brothers with hurried expressions along the way, he would come forward to greet him warmly, and after these people glanced at him without exception, they left without saying a word.
Said to be losing, Qi Shi Yan Jingchen's range of activity has never been too far from the stone forest, because he has to always pay attention to the token that is hidden by himself, and by the way, see if he can find another one nearby.
Before I knew it, half an hour had passed.
"Boom!" a loud voice announced that the first battle had begun after entering the circle.
The battle didn't last long, and by the time Yan Jingchen arrived, the battle was basically over.
A man was lying on the ground with bruises all over his body, choking a few mouthfuls of blood from his mouth from time to time, and another man beside him was protecting a token behind him, looking at Yan Jingchen who rushed over with a nervous expression.
"Senior brother, don't get me wrong, I'm just passing by, you continue. Yan Jingchen explained seriously.
The man listened to Yan Jingchen's words, his expression was startled at first, it is said that he had just experienced a battle, if Yan Jingchen made a move at this time, he would definitely be able to take the token behind him as owned. After thinking for a while, he hugged his fists in relief and said, "Zhang Feng, a disciple under Xia Lu Yingzi, I don't know what the senior brother is called?"
"In Xia Yan Jingchen, I am fortunate to worship under the saint's door, today's competition in the sect is still early, and after all the twelve tokens appear, I also ask all the senior brothers to be merciful. ”
Yan Jingchen said very politely, but in fact, it became another meaning when it fell into the ears of others, that is, I won't kill you first, and I will make a move when you find all the tokens.
Zhang Feng adjusted his state a little, took the token behind him and said to Yan Jingchen: "There will be a period later!"
Seeing Zhang Feng away, Yan Jingchen closed his eyes, and after sensing the fluctuation of the token with a little Dao power, he complained faintly: "This is even more obvious than when I used to run with the blue water and orchid." ”
In the next two hours, Yan Jingchen successively sensed the fluctuations of the Dao power of the ten tokens, which were roughly distributed in the hands of seven people, and they were converging towards the same place.
