Chapter 140: Danhui (2)

The crisp sound of cloud panels still seemed to linger in my ears, but the silence in the open fire hall fell back into silence, and only the few thin wisps of smoke and fire at the top of the hall seemed to reveal what was happening in the silence inside.

In the depths of the Open Fire Palace, more than 50 zhang deep down is an alchemy spirit cave, in the past, the ancestors of the Lingxiao Sect Dantang who had vast magical powers and vast Taoism led to the earth fire with secret methods, and banned the formation, which became the most suitable place for alchemy. There is a huge circular grotto here, and there are twenty-two alchemy rooms around it, whether it is the quality of the earth fire or the configuration of the Dan furnace, it is second to none in the Lingxiao Sect, and I don't know how many elixirs have been refined here for many years, adding luster to the Lingxiao Sect, a famous family for ten thousand years.

And this important Dan meeting was held here under the personal auspices of Elder Yunni.

From early in the morning to now, the Dan Hui has no sign of stopping, and the Dantang disciples who participated in the Dan Club were directly assigned an alchemy room, and then the required spiritual materials were naturally sent in with all the configurations, and the rest was alone in this alchemy room facing the Earth Fire Dan Furnace, walking a tightrope-like dangerous path on the alchemy that could not be made at all.

Zhong Qinglu was in the fourth alchemy room on her left hand, and she was sitting on the ground in the corner of the alchemy room at this moment, her face was pale, her eyes were distracted, her breathing was a little short, and she could even vaguely see a little cold sweat on her forehead and sideburns.

After three rounds of alchemy in a row, even a monk of the Ning Yuan Realm will be a little unbearable in terms of physical strength, not to mention that today is not ordinary, the rules of the Dan Association have long been stated, and if you fail once, you will be eliminated, in contrast, the pressure on your heart may not be less than the pressure on physical strength, and it may even be excessive.

But when the third elixir came out, Zhong Qinglu only felt that the strength of his whole body seemed to have dissipated all of a sudden, and he couldn't care about anything else, so he casually found a place to sit down, leaning against the wall and resting.

A young female disciple of the Dantang came in and took away the baked elixir, with a little sympathy and a little envy, glanced at Zhong Qinglu, and then retreated silently. Zhong Qinglu turned his cheeks slightly, and was in a daze for a while, then stretched out his sleeves and gently wiped the sweat drops on his forehead.

After sitting like this for a while, the door of the alchemy room suddenly opened again, and the female disciple just now walked in again, holding a tray in her hand, which was full of well-configured spiritual materials, and then walked over and gently placed it in front of Zhong Qinglu.

Zhong Qinglu glanced down at the tray, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his face seemed to be a little whiter. The female disciple glanced at her with some concern, and said in a low voice, "Senior Sister Qinglu, are you okay?"

Zhong Qinglu was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "How many people are left?"

The female disciple hesitated, perhaps because she didn't want to offend Zhong Qinglu at this juncture, or because she wanted to have a good relationship with this senior sister who seemed to still have hope of holding out to the end and had a bright future in the future, she bowed her head slightly and didn't speak, but one palm on the tray suddenly bent out, her thumb bent, and the other four fingers straightened.

Zhong Qinglu glanced at her palm, nodded slightly, and didn't say anything more, the female disciple glanced at her, and hurriedly got up and retreated.

"Are there four more people......

When the door of the alchemy room was closed again, Zhong Qinglu was a little dazed, leaning against the stone wall and looking at the smooth stone wall above her head, she only felt physically and mentally exhausted, and at this moment, she had almost lost confidence.

She had thought that it would be a little difficult to fight for the opportunity to worship under Elder Yunni, but she never thought that it would be so difficult, and the senior brothers and sisters who competed for this opportunity with her were some familiar and some unfamiliar, and she had never seen them on weekdays, but in the past month, suddenly everyone seemed to have become strangers, and they were even more desperate in alchemy.

Perhaps, every monk, male or female, has a heart that yearns for higher and stronger, and it is really naïve to think that with a little talent and the support of his family, he can stand out.

She smiled slightly bitterly, her expression was slightly gloomy, saying that it was the support of her family, but in fact, in this critical day, how could the Zhong family, who had already fallen, really support her, and even the main materials of the spiritual materials she had honed during the retreat were mostly given by Shen Shi in private.

Thinking of Shen Shi, she couldn't help but see the figure of the man in front of her eyes again, now thinking about it, it seems that she hasn't seen him for a long time, and it should be that she should start the retreat as soon as she returns to the mountain, and it has been more than a month now, and I don't know what happened to him now?

When his father insulted him for no reason, he must have felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing the way he left angrily that day, he must have been angry, right?

Zhong Qinglu sighed softly, and suddenly felt a little inexplicably soft in her heart, maybe after going out this time, she would still find him and explain it to him, don't you.

It's just that all of a sudden she thought about it, if Dan didn't last to the end this time and lost, would he also be a little disappointed?

She pursed her lips slightly, thought for a while, and suddenly lost her smile, the smile was faint and gentle, thinking that since he regarded this as a transaction, then after he failed, he must have beaten his chest in his heart and said, what happened, he was blind, and threw so many things on a stupid person?

Thinking about it, her expression gradually became really happy, and even the original tiredness seemed to be reduced a lot.

Suddenly, the sound of the cloud board rose again, crisp but as if with a heavy pressure like a mountain.

Zhong Qinglu stared at the tray containing various spiritual materials in front of him, his eyes gradually cleared, and a little bit of tenderness was in his heart. She gently picked up the tray, took a deep breath, then suddenly smiled, stood up, but said to herself, and said softly:

"I'm not stupid!

The laughter was light but gentle, echoing in this alchemy room, as if adding a bit of softness, the woman raised her head and straightened her chest, and walked towards the Dan furnace that was surrounded by earth fire, the fire reflected her cheeks red, reflected in her bright eyes, and it was even more pretty.

※※※

Outside the Open Fire Palace, although the atmosphere is not as solemn and heavy as in the main hall, everyone knows that after these rounds, I am afraid that this Dan will be about to reach the end, if nothing else, at most there will be one or two more rounds, and the final winner of this game will be decided.

After all, there are almost no stupid people who can practice on Jinhong Mountain, including those Dantang disciples who participated in the Dan Meeting, and after half a day's work, almost all of them have been secretly spread, judging their usual alchemy level, coupled with their respective Dao realms, many people have already judged that the limit of these disciples can almost stick to this point.

Shen Shi and Sun You stood in the corner of the crowd, their faces also looked a little dignified, and Sun You said in a low voice: "Among the remaining four, including Zhong Qinglu, they are all Taoists of the Ning Yuan Realm, and they are all about the same age, after all, Elder Yunni values the future potential more in accepting disciples. However, one of them heard that he had cultivated to the high-level realm of Ning Yuan Realm, but he was afraid that in the end, Zhong Qinglu might not be able to beat him, and his physical strength would not be able to keep up. ”

In addition to the great effort required during alchemy, the Earth Fire Pill Fire is also comparable to ordinary flames, even for the cultivators of the Ning Yuan Realm, it is also a big consumption, not to mention that they have to pay attention to the Fire Spirit Pill from time to time in this situation, it is really impossible to miss half a point.

Sun You shook his head, his face showed a little fear, and said in a low voice: "Damn, what the hell are the people in this Dan Hall doing, a Dan will actually make it like this, is it a disciple or a victim?"

Shen Shi was silent for a moment and said, "Maybe that Elder Yunni is using this as a test to test everyone in the school." ”

Sun You nodded and said, "I can only think so." ”

Shen Shi glanced at him, suddenly his heart moved, after hesitating for a moment, he looked around, and then pulled Sun You to the other side of the no-man's land, Sun You was a little surprised, and said, "Okay, what are you pulling me here for?"

Shen Shi said: "There is something I want to tell you. As he spoke, he leaned over to Sun You's side, lowered his voice, and briefly told Sun You about what he had been favored by Elder Shutang Pu from beginning to end.

Sun You listened to it, his eyes lit up involuntarily, and finally he was even more surprised, and almost shouted: "What, you actually ......"

Before the words fell, Shen Shi had already covered his mouth, and Sun You made a few "woo" sounds, but there was joy in his face, and he hammered Shen Shi's chest hard, Shen Shi smiled and let go of his hand.

Sun You looked him up and down, laughed, but lowered his voice and said, "I can't imagine it, I can't imagine it, you stinky boy still have this kind of luck, hateful, I knew that I also learned more Five Elements Techniques back then." ”

Shen Shi snorted and said, "If you don't come, you will learn to be weird, but this matter is not decided yet, don't talk nonsense everywhere." ”

Sun You nodded and said, "I know, you can rest assured." ”

Shen Shi glanced at the Open Fire Hall in the distance again, and then pulled Sun You to walk over there again, and said at the same time: "But I still have to do me a favor now." ”

Sun You patted his chest and said, "Two of us, you can say whatever you want." ”

※※※

Outside the open fire hall, at the end of the day, some people waited impatiently and left first, and some people arrived later, but in general, the number of people gathered continued unabated, and a long hour passed in silence, but when the sound of the cloud board sounded again, it was already dusk.

The sunset slowly set at the end of the distant sea, and the dim light illuminated the sunset on the horizon, and in this little sunset glow, in the already somewhat thrilling cloud sound, two more figures walked out.

The swaying body, as if it was blown down, looked as if all the mental strength had been exhausted, the face was pale like a dead man, and there was a look of despair in his eyes.

There were Dantang disciples next to them who came over to help them walk away, Shen Shi and Sun You looked at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief, this time there was still no Zhong Qinglu. In other words, now there are only the last two left, Zhong Qinglu is one of them, and the next round of alchemy, everyone inside and outside this Open Fire Hall can see that it is obviously the final decisive battle.

Whether it is success or failure, the future is immeasurable or unknown, at this time.

The sound of whispering and discussion suddenly sounded again in the crowd outside the main hall, and the names of Zhong Qinglu and the other remaining disciple, Lin Jingde, were talked about by countless people almost at the same time.

Sun You turned his head, frowned slightly, with a look of concern, and said: "Lin Jingde is a high-level disciple of the Ning Yuan Realm, born in the Lin family of Liuyun City, and has always been valued by the family, this time I am afraid that I have smashed countless blood capitals, it is really better to ...... the end" He didn't say any more, just shook his head slowly.

I don't know when, the sky has darkened, and the disciples on the other side of the Dantang directly lit a few bonfires outside the main hall, and the blazing fire illuminated the nearby places, and it was also reflected in Shen Shi's eyes, looking silent, he seemed to have two flames burning silently in his eyes, silently staring at the open flame hall that stood majestically in the darkness.

What happened to her in the depths of that hall?
