Wei Rongniang returned to Xianyun Peak the day before the head of the family's birthday. Also coming back with her were the elder He Jingxian, the senior brother Li Shaoyu, Deng Yuantong and the second generation of disciples who sat in the Penglai Palace.

They went on a trip to the Miasma Forest.

Before Deng Yuantong and Song Yun teamed up to kill the earth dragon in the sea of rotten leaves, cramping and peeling the skin to search for the soul to win the pill, although the harvest was abundant, I always felt that something was wrong, Yao Jiang spent a lot of effort to synthesize five Ma San, and even lost his life, just for these things on the earth dragon, it is a bit unreasonable. The two of them came out of the miasma leaf forest, discussed again and again, and were about to carefully search the sea of rotten leaves, when Song Yun suddenly received a flying sword transmission from the Hook and Sickle Sect Sect Master Lu, and urgently summoned her to turn back to Liushi Peak.

The master has an order, and he can't shirk it, Song Yun thought to himself, I don't know when I can go down the mountain, and in desperation, I simply gave the benefits to Deng Yuantong and gave Xiandu a big favor. Deng Yuantong made his own decisions, in addition to extracting a spirit, he handed over the body of the earth dragon and the inner pill to Song Yun, and hurried back to Xianyun Peak to report to the master. Xi Huzi was so shrewd, realizing that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he immediately ordered the Qingyang Hall to open the furnace to refine a batch of poison-repelling pills, which took more than a month to refine, and asked Elder He Jingxian He to go out of the mountain and lead his disciples to the Miasma Leaf Forest.

The earth dragon has been removed, there is no monster hiding in the sea of rotten leaves, He Jingxian and others spent half a year to find two "black heart lotus" from the depths of the sea of rotten leaves, no branches and no leaves, the flowers bloom with thirteen petals, and the heart is dyed like ink. He Jingxian regarded it as a treasure, and personally put the black heart lotus into the jade box, not allowing the second person to handle it, although Li Shaoyu and the others knew that they had found a good thing, they didn't even see it.

After the group returned to Xianyun Peak, He Jingxian immediately went to see the master, and the two discussed secretly in the Sanqing Hall for a long time, and when they left, He Jingxian's hands were empty, leaving the two black heart lotuses to Xi Huzi.

The black heart lotus in the sea of rotten leaves is born because of the miasma, nourished by the earth dragon demon qi day and night, it is a good medicine to blindly remove the dark wound, Xi Huzi has been looking for this black heart lotus for more than ten years, but he didn't expect to get it without effort.

On the birthday of the master, the inner gate, the outer door, and the trial disciples of the Xiandu gathered outside the Sanqing Palace, taking turns to congratulate the head of the family on his birthday, kowtowing and serving wine, Xi Huzi smiled and received the salute, his face was still gray, but his expression was much more relaxed.

After the ceremony, a cadre of outer disciples and trial disciples withdrew from Changying Temple, leaving only twenty-one inner disciples for the seven-year competition. Among the inner disciples, Xi Huzi personally passed on five people, the first disciple Xun Ye closed the life and death pass in the eagle's beak rock, only Li Shaoyu, Deng Yuantong, Liu Baizi, Wei Rongniang, and the second generation of disciples 16 people, including Wei 17, Qin Zhen, Xu Li, Xin Laoqi, Shi Ben and other five people have recently been promoted to the inner door, and the remaining eleven people have cultivated unevenly, the shallow ones have condensed into the Dao fetus, and the deep ones have been cultivated into swords.

The sword discussion in Chixia Valley is imminent, in addition to the head Xi Huzi, the elders of the Penglai, Qingyang, Zhuming, Baizang, and Xuanying halls are also present in person, paying attention to this big competition.

There were two rounds of big scores, and the second-generation disciples first recommended five people to compete.

Xun Ye only accepted one apprentice from Wei Seventeen, who had to appear, and the remaining four second-generation disciples were Zhao Zongxuan under Li Shaoyu, Xie Hu under Deng Yuantong, Han Tuo under Liu Baizi, and Duan Wenhuan under Wei Rongniang.

Fu Baoyuan, the palm print boy beside Xi Huzi, held a stick holder in his hand, inserting five bamboo sticks, and asked Wei Qiqi and the others to draw one each. This set of signs has a total of eight, which are heaven, Ze, fire, thunder, earth, mountain, water, and wind, Fu Baoyuan picked five of them, and as a result, Zhao Zongxuan drew the sky lot, Xie Hu drew the Ze lot, Duan Wenhuan drew the mountain lot, Han Tuo drew the wind lot, and Wei XVII drew the thunder lot.

The sky sign has a bye, the Ze sign is against the mountain, and the wind is against the thunder.

Finally avoiding Wei Qiqi, Duan Wenhuan breathed a sigh of relief, if he was defeated by the burning stick in front of everyone, this face would be a big shame! As for Xie Hu, who was under Uncle Deng, he knew some roots, and he was not very jealous.

Wei Qiqi put the thunder sign back into the lotter, and suddenly remembered that when he tried the disciple Xiaobi, Lu Shizhong drew a long lot, Xun Ye and Zhang Jinghe each drew a short lot, and the long and short sticks were put in the holder, how could they be the same length and couldn't see the difference?

He's a little distracted.

From beginning to end, Qin Zhen had been paying attention to his senior brother's every move, and at this time, seeing that his eyes were dull and thoughtful, he couldn't help but cough deliberately to remind him to concentrate. Wei Qiqi glanced up at her and bowed slightly, indicating that he knew.

Wei Rongniang looked at it one by one, and couldn't help but shake her head, is this lazy guy confident, or is he deliberately holding it up?

Fu hugged Yuanlang and said: "Senior Brother Han, Senior Brother Wei, wind and thunder go first!"

The two stepped on the bluestone ground one after another, stood opposite each other, and bowed.

Han Tuo was born in a peasant family, burly and stocky, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he looks a little honest, he has been worshiping under Liu Baizi for ten years, and his swordsmanship is superb, and he is only one step away from breaking through the Jianmang Pass, and among the second-generation disciples, his strength ranks in the top five.

He pulled out a short sword from his waist, rested the blade on his left wrist, and said in a deep voice, "Senior Brother Wei, please advise!"
