White Deer Mountain.

Mountain flowers and frost leaves, cedar and bamboo, ancient vines on the stone, lush and purple.

There is a cold pool, a deep blue, the angry current pours above, the streamer sprays snow, and the stopper Yu Dai.

Look at it carefully, the four mountains are colorful, and the mind is clear.

I don't know when, suddenly a long roar came out from the bottom of the pool, clear and long, higher and higher, like a dragon's roar, like a roar, shaking the mountains and forests.

The next moment, the layers of green water spread out, surging upwards like a rosette, holding up a young man with a long figure, wearing a lotus crown, wearing a black narcissus robe, hanging a delicate bag at the waist, and his complexion was like jade, crystal clear.

As soon as the young man appeared, he opened his eyes, and when he saw the divine light, the water vapor condensed into a water lotus flower in all directions, competing to bloom, lush and fragrant

Seeing such a vision, all the disciples left behind in Bailu Mountain were shocked.

"It's Senior Brother Deng Zhi. ”

"It's great that my brother is out of customs. ”

"It seems that Senior Brother Deng's "Yunze Water Walk is Too Miaogong" is a great success, and he is qualified to compete for the top ten disciples. ”

"yes, that's great. ”

All the disciples gathered around, gossiping, some saying hello, some congratulating, and some talking to themselves, anyway, they all looked excited.

Deng Zhi was not angry, but listened with a smile.

"Senior brother, it's too good for you to get out of the customs this time, three of the top ten disciples in the sect have withdrawn, with the qualifications and strength of senior brother, you will definitely be able to ascend to the position. ”

A young girl with a round face folded her hands, her beautiful eyes full of adoring little stars.

She knew very well that her senior brother Deng Zhi was a well-known genius, and he was qualified to compete for the position of the top ten disciples back then, if it weren't for the so-called overall situation to take a step back, she would already be one of the top ten disciples now.

Now that he has been in retreat for fifteen years, "Yunze Water Walks is Too Miaogong" has been completed, and getting the position of one of the top ten disciples is simply handy.

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Deng is going to bring back a top ten disciple this time. ”

The others chimed in, their eyebrows fluttering.

When a person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven, this is the case in the world, and it is no exception in the immortal gate.

As long as Deng Zhi can successfully ascend to the top ten disciples, for them, ordinary disciples who are attached to Bailu Island, it is no less than a leap, going out and pulling the tiger skin, and there is no disadvantage.

It is precisely because of this that no matter how many contradictions there are in ordinary times, when it comes time to compete for important positions in the door, all factions, departments or forces will be unprecedentedly unified, work together, and twist into a rope, and this is where the interests lie.

After talking for a while, Deng Zhi stood up with his sleeves and said, "Senior brothers, I'll go see Senior Brother Lu first." ”

"It should be, it should be. ”

"Senior Brother Deng, go and come back quickly. ”

"Senior Brother Lu will definitely support it. ”

Everyone is blessed, and they all understand that their senior brother wants to be the top ten disciples, and without Lu Boyan's support, it is impossible.

"I'll come when I go. ”

A flash of water rose from Deng Zhi's feet, his body was pulled into the air, and then he nodded at the disciples below and headed northwest.

After walking for about half an hour, Deng Zhi pressed the head of the falling cloud and reached the ground.

When you look up, you can see the smoke in front of you, the sun and the moon are shaking, the mountain breeze is like autumn water, and the flowers are swaying and fragrant.

The golden light of the treasure flame soars into the air, the purple gas lingers, the crane stands on the branch, and the spirit deer drinks beside the spring.

It is not easy to be immortal in the four seasons, and the Tianzhu treasure is very large.

There was not much time, and the layers of auspicious light and rui qi dispersed, and a crane riding boy had never been, five feet tall, with delicate eyebrows, and said in a crisp childish voice, "Immortal Master Deng, Lu Zhenren summoned, please come with me." ”

"Good. ”

Deng Zhi straightened the Dao crown on his head, took a deep breath, and followed behind.

After a short time, the two came to the bottom of a cliff.

There is a thousand-year-old pine tree, draped over on all sides, the upper branch is not long, looking at it, it is like a canopy, and there are things in it, or like a green ox, or like a green sheep, or like a green dog, or like a green man, the light is strange and unfathomable.

There is a Taoist in Panasonic standing with his hands in his hands, his face is clear, his big sleeves are like wings, and layers of treasure light are overlapped behind his head.

Deng Zhi hurriedly took a few steps forward and saluted, "I've seen Senior Brother Lu." ”

Lu Boyan turned around, a warm smile hung on his face, looked Deng Zhi up and down, and said, "Senior Brother Deng's great progress in Xuangong is really gratifying." ”

After the two exchanged a few polite words, a Taoist boy offered fragrant tea, and Lu Boyan said directly, "Senior Brother Deng, are you here for the upcoming door-to-door competition?"

"Senior brother, can it be inappropriate?"

Deng Zhi's heart sank, and he had a bad premonition.

"With your qualifications, junior brother, you have the opportunity to compete for the seat of the top ten disciples,"

Lu Boyan's eyes were deep, his voice was like a golden stone, and he said, "However, Dongmeng Taiyi Immortal Cave Heaven intends to launch a disciple, and the master owed Chen Zhenren affection back then, so it is not easy to speak. ”

Deng Zhi's face changed, as white as paper, his body was shaky, and he asked, "But Chen Xiang of the Immortal Cave Heaven?"

Lu Boyan shook his head and said, "No." ”

"Lin Congzhi?"

"It's not. ”

"Zhao Xuanhe?"

"It's not. ”

Deng Zhi successively proposed that the Immortal Cave Heaven disciples who were most likely to compete for the top ten disciple seats were all rejected, and his face became even more pale, and he muttered, "In the past fifteen years, has there been any great new disciples in the Immortal Cave Heaven?"

Lu Zhenren pondered for a while, but still spoke, "The disciple launched by the Immortal Cave Heaven is named Xuanyuan Che, he has only been cultivating for more than ten years, and he is already a triple cultivator. ”

"More than a dozen years?"

Deng Zhi suddenly got up, and after a while, he cried and laughed, and said, "It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves." ”

The hardships of fifteen years of retreat, and the ambition after leaving the customs, have now taken a blow head-on, which makes Deng Zhi's expression suddenly and his heart full of feelings.

I have already conceded for the overall situation once last time, and if I let it again this time, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to become one of the top ten disciples in the future.

The scene of the past flashed like a horse and a platform, with the patience of the teacher's teaching, the ardent expectations of the younger brothers and sisters, the courage and diligence of the disciples of the same generation, and the hearts of the failed peers like ashes, Deng Zhi spit out a breath of turbidity, his expression was clear, and he said word by word, "Senior Brother Lu, I want to fight this time." ”

"Senior brother,"

Lu Boyan sighed and said, "You must know that our Dongtian can't give you much help this time, and you have to fight alone." ”

Speaking of which, he also felt sorry for Deng Zhi, this junior disciple of his is highly talented, has a tough heart, and is a cultivation seed

Deng Zhi gritted his teeth, suppressed the many complicated feelings in his heart, and said, "Cultivation is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and I have no way out." ”

At this moment, all the monks in the sect who were qualified to compete for the top ten disciples all stood up in their clothes, played their swords and roared, waiting for the upcoming competition in the door.

It's a dragon or a snake, in one fell swoop
