Liao Tianxing had a long, long dream. In his dream, he seemed to be back in the illusion of the ladder to heaven, back to the boat on the sparkling lake in the late autumn.

But this time he was the only one on the boat, there was no old man in charge of the boat, and there was no beauty who cooked tea, he was the only one, regardless of the direction, and went with the flow. Enjoying the beautiful scenery of the lake during the day, looking up at the moon at night, singing and chanting, forgetting hatred, forgetting stress, forgetting all the things that make him unhappy, following his own heart, let it go.

Liao Tianxing in the dream is very comfortable and relaxed, forgetting the time, wandering casually on the vast lake, leisurely.

But there is always a time to wake up from dreams.

This is a quaint and humble hut where Liao Tianxing woke up.

Facing him was an old carved wooden table, on which a set of purple sand tea sets was dark in color and old. The crimson window ridges are covered with ravines, as if they have been baptized by a long time, and the dark yellow window paper is pasted on them, and the early morning sun shines through it, sprinkling mottled marks on the ground.

The old bookcase and bookshelves stand in a corner of the room, the brass incense burner on the bookcase reflects the soft light under the sunlight, and there are all kinds of pen, ink, paper and inkstone next to it, and a few thin sheets of rice paper are spread on it at will, and the ink on the paper is not dry, as if someone has just learned calligraphy here. Liao Tianxing picked up the paper, and a beautiful fly-headed small letter came into view, which seemed to be written by a woman. But the pen is a little jerky between the lines, and it seems that the person who wrote is not very old.

Liao Tianxing put down the notebook, walked to the window, pushed open the window, and suddenly, the chirping birdsong broke into his ears. The house was in a courtyard with a small garden rustling in the breeze and a few unknown birds frolicking on the branches, from which the sound of birdsong came from.

On the other side of the small garden grows a large tree, the crown of the tree is like a canopy, the trunk is thick, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, several people can not hug each other, the roots of the tree are like a dragon winding out from the ground, almost covering most of the courtyard. There are a few under the tree, and a few stools next to them, which seem to be used for drinking tea in the cold.

"What a quiet and elegant courtyard, even if ordinary people live here, they can prolong their lives, right?" Liao Tianxing thought to himself, "Is this the legendary Baiyun Immortal Sect?

When he was pondering alone, the small door in the courtyard "squeaked", a white figure pushed the door in, Liao Tianxing looked carefully, it was a man in white, wearing a simple white robe, long hair tied up, dressed as a Taoist priest, carrying a sword behind his back, walking in the robe fluttering with the wind, like an immortal in the sky floating out of the dust.

The man walked in front of Liao Tianxing, smiled before saying a word, and said gently: "Senior brother, you have finally woken up, the apprenticeship ceremony has begun, and I am ordered by the elders to wake you up to go to apprenticeship, but I didn't expect you to wake up early." "After that, I should take Liao Tianxing to the place where the apprenticeship ceremony was held.

Liao Tianxing followed him according to his words, only to hear him say again: "I am Situ Nan, I joined the Baiyun Sect ten years ago, but I am not as powerful as you, junior brother, I actually climbed to the end of the ladder to heaven, and within a hundred years, only you and Meng'er stepped on the thousandth steps." He looked at Liao Tianxing with some envy, and said: "In fact, according to the difficulty of the ladder to heaven, you can enter the outer sect to practice above level 700, and Tianjiao like you will definitely be vigorously cultivated by the sect." ”

Liao Tianxing smiled shyly. In fact, he has always been like this, either not doing it or doing it best!

This place seems to be on top of a large mountain, and the place where Liao Tianxing lives is on the mountainside. He and Situ Nan went all the way up, I don't know how far they walked, before they reached the peak, Liao Tianxing raised his eyes, and saw that the white clouds were surrounded, and the surrounding fairy mist was misty, and they seemed to be above the clouds, looking into the distance, the majestic sun was shining dazzlingly, reflecting the entire sea of clouds into gold.

The top of the hill is a huge square, five huge pillars stand in the clouds, on which are carved with the huge statues of the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, the Xuanwu and the unicorn roaring in the sky, and the five shining gems of different colors are shining in the mouths of the five giant beast statues, which are extremely mysterious and breathtaking in the ethereal clouds.

In the middle of the square, on a high platform, there were several elders of the White Cloud Sect, but the main seat in the center was empty.

At this time, there were already many people in the square watching, all of them were white robes, fairy wind bones, elegant as immortals. According to what Situ Nan said on the road and Liao Tianxing, except for the disciples who were on a special mission, the disciples of the White Cloud Sect basically gathered here. I heard that someone climbed to the top of the ladder of Babel, so I came to observe it.

Liao Tianxing was brought by Situ Nan to a group of people, this group of people was about twenty people, dressed differently, they were the promoters of the White Cloud Sect this time, and the trials on the ladder of Tongtian had reached more than seven hundred.

"Bell..." A distant bell seemed to come from the sky, signaling the beginning of the ceremony.

Among the seats on the high platform, an old woman in a purple shirt stood up and volleyed to the center of the square, and suddenly, a powerful coercion swept through the entire square like a storm, and all the disciples of the Baiyun Sect suddenly stopped talking to each other, and looked at the old woman in the middle of the square, with a hint of fear in their eyes.

The old woman looked around at everyone and said for a while: "I am the elder of the Baiyun Sect Punishment Hall, and the main punishment. You can also call me Elder Meng. She paused and continued: "This time my Baiyun Immortal Sect's apprenticeship ceremony has been successfully concluded, and in this apprenticeship, many talents have emerged, and there are even young talents who have climbed to the end of the ladder to heaven. Her gaze paused at the place where Liao Tianxing was, and then said: "Believe me, with the addition of these seed disciples, the White Cloud Immortal Sect will be even stronger, and I also hope that you will not fall into the prestige of my Immortal Sect!"

After summarizing the apprenticeship ceremony, Elder Meng explained the rules of the apprenticeship ceremony for the new disciples: the five stone pillars in the square are left over from the ancient sages, which are used to test the compatibility of each new disciple with the corresponding attribute of the stone pillar, and the more radiant the person, the stronger the qualification of the attribute.

Although Elder Meng is old, she is strong and has few enemies, she is upright, she has been in charge of the Baiyun Sect Torture Hall for more than 40 years, and all the disciples respect and fear her, although they have long known these rules, but no one dares to show impatience.

After understanding the rules of the test, the new disciples walked past the five huge stone pillars one by one in order, and the five stone pillars flashed bright or dim light from time to time, and suddenly, the stone pillar representing the white tiger was bright with red light!

It was the one who lost his mind on the ladder and shot at Miss Qin Er!

At this time, the gem in the mouth of the white tiger carving emitted a dazzling red glow, and even pierced the clouds, obscuring the midday daylight!

In mid-air, Elder Meng's eyes flashed with a gleam. The White Tiger Lord killed, and this big man was furious when he was on the ladder to heaven, and he was the disciple she needed in the torture hall.

Elder Meng appeared in front of the big man before everyone reacted, and said, "This son has entered my torture hall!"

Everyone was in an uproar, they had never seen the ruthless Elder Meng so out of shape, nor had they ever seen a new disciple with such an amazing talent. She has always shown people with a serious face, and now she is so solemn about the big man in front of her, which shows that he has good qualifications and talents.

However, there was one thing that Elder Meng did not reveal to the other elders present, this great man was the legendary Huangquan Demon Body.

The so-called Huangquan Demon Body is not really the demon in the Yellow Spring, but blesses his body with the qi of the Nine Shades, sacrifices his body and forgets to die, and the flames of the Nine Shades burn the sky and boil the earth, and the power is monstrous.

The elders on the high platform sighed one after another, they didn't grab this disciple with great potential, but there were still a few people who didn't have their turn to be tested, including Liao Tianxing, who was the only one to get on the fixed point! So, their eyes lit up one after another, staring at Liao Tianxing's direction, waiting for him to be tested.

At this time, suddenly the green dragon statue burst out of the blue light! The emerald green light was vibrant, enveloping the entire square. Everyone was bathed in this blue light, only to feel comfortable, and some old injuries and hidden diseases were all cured. And the person who makes the green light bloom is the second miss of the Qin family!

This time, Elder Fu of the Medicine Hall reacted the fastest, and directly turned into a blue light, rolling that Second Miss Qin and disappeared in an instant.

Everyone was stunned, and Elder Qian jumped to his feet even more angrily, he scolded and scolded: "This old medicine jar is becoming more and more undisciplined, although it is suitable for medical Taoism, it can't be turned into a demon wind and run away directly with the big girl of other people, right?"

Everyone was in a row, Elder Qian and Elder Fu were fighting every time they met, and they had wins and losses against each other, but this time it was obvious that Elder Fu had a slight advantage.

Liao Tianxing stood at the end of the line, apprehensive. Although his root bones are good, he is born with blocked meridians, so he can't cultivate, and he doesn't know which statue he can light up the gem on it. And the person in front of Liao Tianxing is the son of the Qian family.

After some waiting, it was finally the turn of the last two.

The descendants of the Qian family still had an indifferent expression, and even had a blade of grass pulled down from nowhere in their mouths, and their shaking of their heads made the elders on the high platform shake their heads one after another. Elder Qian, who had a poisonous mouth and a black belly, couldn't help it for a long time, and he said hatefully: "Look at this little bastard who looks like a hanger, no matter how good his qualifications are, it is difficult to become a big deal." My generation of cultivators should be strict with themselves, abide by their duties, and cultivate hard, and see what he has become!"

All the elders present slandered one after another, talking about intemperance, you are the first old medicine jar and the second, and others have no chance to compete for your ranking.

And the children of the Qian family didn't seem to hear Elder Qian's criticism of him, and slowly walked through the five stone pillars by themselves.

The Green Dragon Pillar has no reaction, the White Tiger Pillar has no reaction, the Vermilion Bird Pillar has still not responded, and the Xuanwu Pillar has no reaction either.

Now even the children of the Qianjia family themselves doubted themselves, could it be that their qualifications were so poor? But when he walked past the Qilin Pillar, the entire stone pillar actually lit up!

In the purple light, everyone seemed to see a unicorn from the primeval world, roaring and majestic, and in front of it, all the beasts had their proud heads down. Its eyes were domineering and boundless, like an emperor who reigned over the world, looking down on its subjects! In an instant, it was fierce and imposing.

Everyone froze.

This unicorn stone pillar has stood here for more than a thousand years, and no one has ever been able to touch its light, let alone let it manifest the true soul of the unicorn, and today, the children of the thousand families have actually awakened it!

On the high platform, after a few rays of light, it was empty.

"This is my disciple!," Elder Qian grabbed the hands of the disciples of the Thousand Families and shouted at the other elders.

I don't know how his fat body used his body technique, but he came first and arrived in front of the children of the thousand families before the other elders.

He seems to have forgotten how he arranged his family when the disciples ascended the ladder to the sky, and he also seemed to have forgotten that just now, he was still swearing on the high platform that this son was "difficult to become a great weapon".

At this time, Elder Qian's face turned red, and he didn't care whether the thousand families wanted to or not, so he dragged the others away.

Everyone was helpless, there was really no way to meet this old scoundrel.

Finally it was Liao Tianxing's turn, he tidied up his clothes and walked forward with a solemn face.

Liao Fanzhi once said that Liao Tianxing is extraordinary, but to what extent is it "extraordinary", even he himself wants to know.

However, just as Liao Tianxing was about to pass by the first stone pillar, a white light from outside the sky fell into the field in an instant, and everyone looked at it, and after the light dissipated, a jade slip was revealed, which was crystal clear and brilliant.

"This is the Sect Master's Seal!" one of the elders exclaimed. It seems that Liao Tianxing's son is indeed talented against the sky, and the sect master who has been in retreat for many years is actually paying attention to the apprenticeship ceremony here!

Subsequently, someone in the elder group input mana into this jade slip, and suddenly a white light bloomed, and an old woman's voice came: "There is still a lack of a scholar in my retreat, so let this Liao family boy come to my cave to study ink and copy books, restrain his mind, and make plans for cultivation!"

Everyone was stunned, what does the sect master mean by this? A talented potential disciple actually wants to copy a book to restrain his mind? The sect master's actions are really unfathomable, and people are puzzled.

Liao Tianxing breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that he couldn't light up a single stone pillar, and then he, the person who had climbed the ladder to the sky, would lose his face.

However, it is good to copy books, and at the same time, you can increase your knowledge while constricting your mind, and you may be able to find a way to change your body from the vast classics of the Baiyun Sect. For the loss of the horse, I don't know if it's a blessing, that's the truth.

He was calm, ignoring everyone's surprised gazes, and under the leadership of a white-clothed disciple, he headed towards the sect master's retreat.

From today on, he is the first scholar in the Baiyun Sect who has not cultivated but stayed in the place where the sect master is cultivating.
