The locust tree at the entrance of the village, the locust flowers are still flying slowly until they fall on the earth or on the bodies of the old and the young.

Mu Chuan's eyes were black, his legs were weak, his knees knelt heavily, looking at the pile of charcoal ruins in front of him, there was also this pile of open flames burning in front of him, the heat wave was blowing from time to time, his hair was a little curly, Mu Chuan's eyes looked at it blankly, he knew that this was the home of the water, the home that liked to call him Brother Xiaochuan and let him take him to the beach to touch the shells, but now, there was nothing. But he couldn't and couldn't believe that this was the small fishing village that gave birth to him and raised him.

"Ho... The young man covered his chest in some pain, his white fingers were a little blue because of the force, his heavy breathing sound was like a dilapidated bellows, and he was dizzy in his brain, and he almost fainted under excessive sadness. But a pair of broad hands held his shoulders, and the cool feeling slowly spread into Mu Chuan's body, making his brain slowly return to clarity.

"Sir?" After a moment, the young man raised his head and whispered to Mr. Mo, but his voice was a little hoarse, Mr. Mo looked at his proud protégé, whose eyes were full of energy in the past were now extremely flustered and lost their agility. Secretly sighed and couldn't bear it, so he had to comfort him in a loud voice: "I just took a cursory look at the air before, you are waiting for me here, waiting for me to come back." With that, he walked towards the village.

Mr. Mo had already released his breath before, and there was no breath of life in the village. But when Mu Chuan ..... thought of him, Mr. Mo felt a little unbearable in his heart, so he did his best to settle his destiny. In the middle of the road, there are still some embers, and ordinary people still can't stand the scorching waves. But Mr. Mo ignored this and kept striding forward, but the more he walked towards the center of the village, the more ugly Mr. Mo's face became, and anger obviously rose on Gujing Wubo's face in the past.

In the middle of the village, the house is the most and the fire is the largest, Mr. Mo's eyes are a little bloodshot, several women are lying on the ground, disheveled, a knife wound on the back is shocking, and the facial features blackened by the smoke and fire still have the last expression of his life - frightened, next to him are two young children, bleeding from the seven orifices, who have been dead for a long time.

"Click!" A crisp sound sounded from Mr. Mo's feet, it was actually the bluestone under his feet that was shattered, and a little ice crystals flashed in the cracks, and then, a circle of cold light visible to the naked eye took this as the center, and quickly expanded outward, and everywhere the cold light went, whether it was a burning house or a flickering ash that flickered, all the heat was gone, and if you looked closely, there were ice edges hanging in some places!

Mu Chuan shivered under the moon locust tree, and seemed to feel something in his heart, and when he looked up, Mr. Mo had a frosty face and walked out slowly. Mu Chuan hurriedly stepped forward, before he asked, when he exhaled, it was like a midwinter wax moon, and the white mist was steaming up, you must know that it is August now, and it is still very hot at noon.

"First... Sir..."Mu Chuan's words seemed a little choppy, and his body shivered involuntarily. Seeing this, Mr. Mo said secretly, and then the cold air around him receded like a tide, the temperature rose, Mu Chuan's body slowly relaxed, Mu Chuan grabbed Mr. Mo's arm tightly with both hands, and looked at the latter with earnest eyes: "Sir, the village ...... The villagers ......" and the words behind it, Mu Chuan was like a fish in his throat, and it was difficult to spit it out.

Mr. Mo sighed and shook his head. He noticed that the pressure on his arm was slowly decreasing until it was gone. Mu Chuan's hands hung down weakly, his body fell straight forward, and before he was confused, he only heard Mr. Mo's anxious call, "Father, mother, ......" This was Mu Chuan's last thought before the darkness in front of him.

The huge sadness on the young man's face still remained, Mr. Mo looked at Mu Chuan in his arms, sighed lightly, but he didn't intend to wake him up, fainted and let him slow down, thinking in his heart. Turning his head to look at the burned down fishing village, the mild color quickly condensed, and the cold light in his eyes suddenly appeared.

Cloud Gate, the central square of Paizhong, there is a wooden platform today, and there are several queues in front of the wooden platform, and most of them are teenagers. There were seven or eight people on the stage, and in the middle of the crowd sat an old man in gray. A middle-aged man holding a book looked at the sky, turned to the old man and said respectfully, "Elder Hong, the time has come. Elder Na Hong waved his hand impatiently to show that he knew, and he was a little unhappy in his heart: "Those elders are idle, and the apprentices below have all found seedlings. "Although Elder Hong also knows that this kind of thing is no wonder that the disciples below don't make efforts to find it, not only are there few people in this land, but even fewer can cultivate, as for those with good qualifications, it is impossible to find. But thinking that in a few months, the new students in the sect would be pressed to the bottom of the fire line, and Elder Hong still couldn't get along with this breath. Impatient, he didn't bother to stand up, and spoke directly from the seat.

"Today is the time for my Cloud Gate to beckon a new disciple, before you come here, you all know the purpose of this trip, Jackie Chan is a phoenix, or return to the world, it all lies here. Elder Hong pointed his finger, and everyone in the audience looked at it, and there was a half-human-high pillar standing in the middle of the stone platform, and a bead the size of a baby's fist was placed on the top of the pillar.

Elder Hong's speech did not have much passion, but the eyes of the young boys and girls in the audience were already very hot, the excitement was overflowing, and the square was inevitably noisy, the impatient look on Elder Hong's face was even more victorious, and the middle-aged man holding the book saw this, took a step forward and cleared his throat: "Quiet!" Hearing the voice of the audience gradually weakening, the middle-aged man continued to speak: "The tester will hold the bead in his hand, relax his body, now, the test begins!"

"You, come up!"

A thin young man came up, stretched out his hand and held the bead at the top, and after a while, the bead emitted a faint green light, and the middle-aged man glanced at it: "Lower grade Mu Yuan Body." ”

"Next!"

"Medium grade water element. ”

......

Time slowly faded, and some of the young boys and girls who had been tested were high-spirited, and some were depressed, and many of them were not Yuan at all, but the family was relatively wealthy, and the elders left a place to buy with a thought.

Wang Hao was very nervous in his heart, although there was a cultivator who said that he was a Yuan Body that night, but he didn't expect that it was divided into three, six, nine and so on, most of the people in front were mostly middle and lower grades, and only one person with a top-grade Earth Yuan Body appeared, and the honest young man had already been taken to the stage to wait quietly for the end of the test.

"Damn, how can I, Wang Hao, be a middle-class body. Wang Hao thought in his heart, and his palms were wet unconsciously.

"Why are you standing stupidly, come up!"

The cheers of a disciple on the stage brought Wang Hao back to his senses, Wang Hao hurriedly stepped forward, stood in front of the pillar, wiped his trouser legs with both hands, and gently held the beads, the expected light did not appear, Wang Hao swallowed his saliva with difficulty, his heart was already panicked, what happened?

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd that had already finished the test but had not yet left, and many of them were simply seeking some psychological comfort simply to see someone with inferior qualifications to them make a fool of themselves.

"No Element, ....." The disciple smiled secretly in his heart, and was about to send him off the stage, but before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred.

"Click. Several cracks appeared on the surface of the beads, and the slight sound made Wang Hao's palm that was about to leave settle again, and then, the beads released a dazzling red light, and the red light came out from between Wang Hao's fingers.

Wang Hao didn't understand what his own yuan body was, because the nervous young man's face trembled slightly, and his fair face looked a little weird in the red light.

"Click, click. Finally, after a few moments, the cracks were like cobwebs all over the beads, and with a few clear sounds, they shattered and fell to the ground. Elder Hong was swept away by the red light, a cup of tea spurted out, his big sleeves waved, and swept away the previous disciples, a stride actually came to Wang Hao, after a careful observation, his left hand flipped over, and he had already held a piece of something like a jade plate in his hand, grabbed Wang Hao's palm, and the hand flashed slightly, the latter's fingertips were slightly painful, and a drop of blood fell on the jade plate-shaped thing, and it was strange to think that the drop of blood had penetrated into it, and after a while, the white jade plate had been circulated with red light, like a treasure. When Elder Hong saw it, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile.

And this scene was inevitably seen clearly by the people in the audience, and after a moment of silence, the sound of discussion gushed out like an erupting torrent.

"Why did the bead burst all of a sudden?"

"Look at Elder Hong's appearance, it seems that that kid is in the sky?"

"I hate it, why am I not a metabody!"

In the midst of the discussion, there are doubters and envy, and there is no shortage of jealous.

"Hahaha! No, Ji Tailai! This small place can actually see the Yuan Body above the top grade, and my fire vein is about to rise! But I have to tell the door master about this. Elder Hong smiled, looked at Wang Hao carefully, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then pulled Wang Hao onto the stage, and said to the middle-aged man holding the book beside him: "The test continues." ”

"Congratulations, Elder. The middle-aged man with the book bowed and said respectfully. Elder Hong raised his hand with a smile and walked towards the inner door with Wang Hao, who turned to the crowd in front of him and said loudly: "Those who have passed the test stand on the left side of the stage, and those who have not tested will take the test normally!"

Everything in the audience was in order, and a dark-skinned disciple next to the middle-aged man holding the book waited for the people around him to disperse, and only then did he bow down to him in confusion and asked, "Uncle Shi, what happened just now, why did the Yinyuan bead break?" The pen on the book paused, the middle-aged man turned around and glanced back, and the two backs could still be seen in the corner of his eyes, the envy in his eyes flashed, and he sighed secretly in his heart, but he lowered his eyes again: "You know the effect of the Yinyuan bead." ”

"The disciple knows that the Yuan Bead is a test to see if it has the effect of the Yuan Body, and the stronger the light emitted, the higher the grade. "The black-skinned disciple has been in this Cloud Gate for two years, and he only entered the middle water element body at the beginning. The middle-aged man nodded: "That's right, but this Yuan Bead can only be tested up to the top grade Yuan Body, and there is nothing that can be done about it." The black-skinned disciple's eyelids jumped, and he also knew a lot about cultivators within the sect, and there were mutated elements in addition to the basic elemental body, but the young man emitted a red light, could it be ...... The middle-aged man looked at the senior nephew beside him and spoke.

"In the twenty years since I started, I have only seen such a scene twice, and that young man is a ground-level fire elemental body. ”

After that, the envy that could not be concealed was already on his face.
