Chapter 13 Apprenticeship to Xuantian Sect

"Steamed buns, hot steamed buns"

There is an endless stream of hawkers on the street, and the river slowly crosses, and I feel a lot of emotion in my heart.

Now, as a monk, he has long stopped eating grains and grains, and he meditates for months every time, and this feeling of being separated from the world makes his heart faintly complicated.

This Xuantian City is the territory of the Xuantian Sect, which is different from other mortal cities.

Although there are many mortals in this city, there are also monks with true qi in their bodies from time to time, but most of them are in the early stage of qi training, and high-level monks are rarely seen.

In a restaurant with extraordinary decoration, Jiang He asked for a pot of plum wine and two side dishes, and sat quietly, but his eyes looked at the street from time to time.

"Such a fellow Daoist, take the liberty of bothering, are you also here to worship the Xuantian Sect?"

Jiang He was sitting at the table drinking wine, and suddenly heard the man who led the seat of one or five big and three thick people clenched his fist and asked, quite a little Jianghu Qi, Jiang He turned his head to look at the big man in surprise when he heard this.

"I'm here to get started, listen to the words of fellow Daoists, is this Xuantian Sect going to recruit disciples recently?"

The big man looked at Jiang He and shook his head.

"It turns out that Daoist friends don't know about it, Xuantian Sect recruits disciples once every ten years, and they don't look at age, they only look at cultivation."

The big man took a sip of wine lightly and shook his head and made a gesture, but the elegance of this wine tasting was extremely incompatible with its appearance, and even a little funny.

"Of course, no matter how you recruit disciples, it still depends on their qualifications, I think that Daoist friends are not very old but they are also profound, you might as well give it a try, after all, with the protection of the sect, it is better than being a casual cultivator."

It turned out that the great Han saw that Jiang He was not very old, but his cultivation was in the middle of Qi training, and he thought that his qualifications were still good, so he opened his mouth to tell him, and Jiang He smiled when he heard this.

"Thank you for telling me."

But he thought in his heart, it seemed that this cultivation had indeed been covered up, so he left his seat with satisfaction and went downstairs, leaving only the big man sitting alone, his face flickering.

Jiang He returned home, thinking in his heart, this Xuantian Sect is extremely strange, but I am working so behind closed doors, I don't know when I will be able to reach the realm of foundation building.

Xuantian Sect, I'll give it a try, but be cautious.

On the second day, the river packed up and left slowly like a traveler.

In his heart, he arrived outside the gate of Xuantian Sect in one hour.

This sect is only twenty or thirty miles away from Xuantian City, if the river is sword-bound, it can be reached with less than a stick of incense.

It's just that the current situation is unclear, and the river has to be walked away, but it is also very fast.

Looking at the stone tablet engraved with the three big characters of Xuantian Sect outside the mountain gate.

Jiang He's face was slightly straight, and he was about to go up the mountain, when he suddenly saw a wave of water at the mountain gate, and two young Taoists stretched out their hands to block the road.

"Those who come stop moving, and the front is my Xuantian Sect"

Jiang He bowed his hand when he heard this.

"Two Taoist friends, wait a minute, I am here to apprentice to your sect, and I hope to walk in the door of convenience"

The two of them didn't doubt him, but they just said it right.

"Do you have a fuse, then?"

Jiang He shook his head and said no, and the slightly fat Taoist looked embarrassed when he saw this.

"There is no introduction, please wait for a while, go to the reception desk and wait."

Jiang He nodded yes when he heard this.

"Please also ask my brother to show the way"

The fat Taoist raised his hand and pointed to the mountainside.

"That's the lead station, you go quickly, or you won't be able to catch up with today's test."

When Jiang He heard this, he hugged his fists and thanked him, so he walked quickly up the mountain.

The stone steps in the mountains are neat, and after looking up, they disappear into the clouds after a while.

The mountain flowers next to the steps are splendid, there are cranes flying by from time to time, and the clouds and mist in the sky are shrouded, like a fairyland on earth.

Jiang He walked on the steps, his eyes flickering, and his heart was thinking back and forth.

"This Xuantian Sect is a famous sect of righteousness at a glance, why is that person a demon?"

In my heart, I was puzzled, so I came to the introduction platform, only to see that the guidance platform was crowded, so it was not lively, there were as many as two or three hundred people.

Although most of the cultivators were in the early stage of Qi cultivation, Jiang He had never seen such a monk, and with a flash of his eyes, he stood in the back row and waited.

"Brother Dao, Brother Dao, have you ever remembered me?"

Jiang He pondered, but when he saw that the big man in the restaurant waved at him that day, he couldn't help but look strange, Brother Dao?

"How dare I forget the grace of the message given to me by my fellow Daoists"

Seeing this, the big man squeezed over from the crowd, looking at Jiang He with a smile on his face, without the slightest hint of seeing the outside, as if the two were extremely familiar.

"Brother Dao is serious, with Brother Dao's qualifications, even if I don't tell Brother Dao, Brother Dao will know that this little entry test is not easy to catch."

Jiang He chuckled and joked when he heard this.

"Daoist friends don't want to lift, there are a few catties and a few taels in the heart, you understand"

Dahan didn't care either, and gave up his hands to be serious.

"In Xia Kou Zhun, it is a casual cultivation, this cultivation method was obtained by herding cattle when I was a child, but my qualifications are dull, and I have only practiced the fifth layer of qi so far."

Jiang He also smiled slightly.

"In Xiajianghe, it is also a casual cultivation, and it is also a way to step into cultivation by chance"

The big man touched his head and smiled.

"Then we look like each other, hehe"

As soon as the words fell, I heard a white-clothed old man coming on the mountain, the old man was kind and kind-eyed, his face was kind, and he was quite a bit fairy-like

The old man landed on the stage, and the dust shook off and looked at everyone, frowning slightly.

"Welcome to participate in the selection of disciples of my Xuantian Sect, my sect was founded three hundred and sixty hundred and fifty years, founded by the old man of Yunyao Patriarch, and now lives in one of the three sects of Cangyun Continent, if you want to enter my sect, you need to pass this Heavenly Mirror, you need to walk this floating bridge"

The old man said again.

"If there are thieves who want to fish in troubled waters, they can leave by themselves, ask the mirror of heaven to shine on all the demons in the world, and there are thunderous means to get rid of them, if you don't believe it, but please give it a try"

Then he said no more.

The two Taoists next to him slowly walked out and opened the leading table.

Test Start

Jiang He saw these hundreds of people waiting under the huge rock mirror one by one, and his heart flickered.

Demon cultivators can't pass the way, should I just leave?

While thinking about it, the big man next to him, Kou Zhun, smiled and looked at the river.

"This test is so simple, Brother Dao, let's go"

After saying that, he was going to pull Jiang He to go with him, the big man smiled innocently, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.

Although Jiang He is worried, there is no way, if he does not go, then he does not know when the day of foundation building will be.

So I made up my mind and gave him a try, and besides, I had the method of covering the sky and the sun to hide the breath, so I thought about it, and I had some confidence.

The ghost light of the rock mirror is pressing, and groups of monks have been illuminated unharmed, after all, where is there really this demon to defy the law.

Seeing that he was about to reach Jianghe, Jianghe was cautious in his heart, but his footsteps did not stop, and he slowly walked towards this heavenly mirror.

I saw that the mirror was full of light, the river could not open its eyes, the sense of mystery arose, the word river appeared on the mirror, when was born, where the ancestral home was on it, a few breaths, and the Taoist next to him urged.

"Next"

Hearing this, Jiang He hurriedly left, and his heart couldn't help but calm down, and secretly said that this Heavenly Mirror is nothing more than that.

Walking forward, a suspension bridge came into view, and the clouds and mist under the bridge were shrouded in mist, and there was an endless stream of people taking the test on the bridge.

"River, River"

When he came to the bridge, Jiang He seemed to hear someone calling him softly, and he was about to turn back.

But I found myself suddenly in the Nine Shadows Land, where this bridge can reflect the deepest things in the human heart.

Jiang He saw a sea of blood under the bridge, with severed limbs and stumps floating on it, and even more hungry ghosts climbing along the bridge cables, so he was ruthless in his heart, and was preparing to cast a soul trick to protect himself.

Suddenly, the soul trick in the body was working, but his heart was suddenly shocked, he put down his movements, and walked forward to let the hungry ghosts haunt him without stopping, this was an illusion.

Jiang He knew in his heart that with his heart, such an illusion could be lost for half a moment, which was enough to confuse the real with the false.

When the sun set, the test was over, and the old man in white still didn't say a word.

The Taoist next to him took out the roster record, and then read the names one by one, Jiang He realized that if the person who was born and the name and origin of the person reflected in reality on the mirror of the question, it meant that the person was acquiesced in entering the sect.

And the rest of the floating bridges are just to test people's hearts, and those who pass these two can enter the Xuantian Sect.

Although the test seems simple, Jiang He vaguely feels that it is not so simple, and the principle is not yet known.

"River"

Suddenly, when he heard the Taoist pronounce his name, Jiang He's face was straight, and he stood behind him and waited silently.

"Kou Zhun" Jiang He suddenly heard the name of the rough man, and his brows thought slightly, this big man is also extremely not simple, I don't know what his plans are to approach him.

Jiang He is cautious by nature, as early as when he was in the Xuantian City Restaurant, he felt that this person was wrong, and after today's contact, he felt more and more that this person was not simple, and it seemed that he had to pay attention to one or two in the future.

When it was slightly dark, the Taoist read the list of all the introductory disciples, a total of seventy-eight people.

I saw that the white-clothed old man took out a small boat in his hand, pinched the trick, and the small boat rose twenty zhang in the wind, and then jumped on Feizhou and said slowly.

Not up yet."

When the old man saw that the people were all together, the magic trick in his hand changed, and the flying boat fluttered up, roaring in the night and going straight to the temple on the top of the mountain.
