Chapter 5 Root Bone Testing
Looking at Chen Chong, who was listless beside him, Ye Lingchuan couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of the world.
Soon after Huang Liang left that day, Chen Chong received a spirit talisman transmission and arranged for Ye Lingchuan to live with him until the root bone test was over. Looking at the wooden house he was in, Ye Lingchuan felt very satisfied, knowing that he had been sleeping on the grass in the back mountain for the past two days.
Thinking of the root bone test that Huang Liang said in his mouth, Ye Lingchuan turned his head sideways and looked at Chen Chong.
"Senior Brother Chen, what's going on with this bone test?"
Chen Chong glanced at Ye Lingchuan, snorted, and spoke angrily.
"My Sword Sect is looking for more than 10,000 miscellaneous disciples every year, and it is said that it is miscellaneous servants, as you know, it is actually the first step to get started. And the way to select official disciples from among these miscellaneous disciples is the root bone test. ”
"The root bone test is a judgment of your own immortal cultivation qualifications, the better your qualifications, the greater the possibility of going further on the road of cultivating immortals, and you will naturally be valued by the sect and given better cultivation resources. ”
"The root bone test, regardless of background, has nothing to do with identity, the only criterion is the quality of your qualifications. As long as you can shine in the root bone test, all the peaks of the Sword Gate will rush to find you as a disciple. Speaking of the last sentence, Chen Chong himself felt funny, what qualifications could a teenager with amnesia who was found casually have.
"Then how is this bone test conducted?" Ignoring the expression on Chen Chong's face, Ye Lingchuan then asked.
Chen Chong's face was a little impatient, but when he thought of his senior brother's instructions, he had to patiently explain, but his tone couldn't help but be a little unfriendly.
"Why? I want to know in advance and prepare, I'm not afraid to tell you, even if you know, you can't do anything about the hands and feet, the root bone test, relying on the sword pillar. ”
"Sword Pillar?"
"That is the treasure used by the sect to test the quality of the disciples, it is said that it is the treasure obtained by the ancestor of the Sword Sect by chance, and it stands in the center of Tianxing Square, and it is also the place where you want to go to the test. ”
"There are a total of ten sword diagrams on the sword pillar, arranged in order from bottom to top, according to the level of the measured person's qualifications, a different number of patterns will be lit, the more sword diagrams lit up, the better the qualifications, which is also the basis for your peaks. ”
"Well, it's easy. Ye Lingchuan nodded after hearing this, looked at Chen Chong, and suddenly felt a little curious in his heart.
"From now in that sword gate, how many people have lit up ten swords during the test?" As soon as the words fell, Ye Lingchuan saw Chen Chong looking at him with an expression like a fool.
"How many people? Are you a cabbage on the side of the street when the Ten Swords are the Sect! My Sword Sect has been established for more than 3,000 years, and the one with the highest talent is the current head, and the sword diagram has been fully lit up nine times during the root bone test, and no one can compare with it throughout the ages! Cultivation has been brave and diligent all the way, and he has cultivated for thousands of years, and now he is in the late stage of transforming into a god, and he deserves to be extremely talented. At the mention of the head of the Sword Sect, Chen Chong's face was filled with reverence.
"Don't say that you are in charge, Senior Brother Bai Yu of Dongyang Peak, Senior Sister Xiao Qianning of Qixia Peak, and Senior Brother Ying Xi of Yunxi Peak, when they first conducted the root bone test, they lit up the Eight Sword Diagrams, and they were directly accepted as personal disciples by the peak masters of the three upper peaks. ”
"As for the Ten Swords," Chen Chong shook his head, "For three thousand years, there hasn't been one. ”
Looking at Ye Lingchuan with slanted eyes, Chen Chong couldn't help but show a mocking look.
"You know, the difference between the sword diagram is one sword, and the gap will be huge, with you, it would be good to have two or three swords during the test, and what ten swords do you want, I really don't know how thick the sky is. ”
Caressing the long sword on his lap, I don't know why, hearing this, Ye Lingchuan didn't feel a little difficult in his heart, and even surged out an extremely strong self-confidence. Ye Lingchuan couldn't help but secretly laugh, probably his previous qualifications were not bad. Thinking of this, Ye Lingchuan raised his head, and a bright smile was on his face.
"Qualifications, who can say for sure?"
The powerful look that suddenly erupted on the young man's face made Chen Chong, who originally wanted to be sarcastic, stunned. At that moment, the boy seemed to be a little dazzling, making it impossible to look at it directly. After standing for a long time, Chen Chong suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head away in shame, and let out a cold snort from his nose.
"Hmph, then I'd like to see how many sword diagrams you can light up. ”
Looking at the smiling and silent young man beside him, Chen Chong felt a feeling of depression in his heart, flicked his robe, turned around and walked out of the door. Pushing open the door, Chen Chong saw Huang Liang standing not far from the room and looking at him with a smile. As soon as he wanted to speak, he saw Huang Liang shake his head, beckoned, and turned around and walked into the distance.
Following closely behind Huang Liang, Chen Chong wanted to speak, but he didn't know where to start, and he felt even more depressed in his heart. At this moment, Huang Liang, who was walking in front, stopped, turned around and looked at Chen Chong with a smile.
"What's the matter, you're not happy?"
Chen Chong opened his mouth, glanced at Huang Liang, closed his mouth again, lowered his head and did not speak.
"Don't you understand why I'm so optimistic about him?" Looking at Chen Chong, Huang Liang smiled dumbly and said.
"Yes. Chen Chong, who replied hard, saw that Huang Liang didn't speak, gritted his teeth, and opened his mouth in one go.
"Senior brother, I admit that it was wrong for me to think he was an idiot before, but, in the end, it's just a teenager I picked up casually, how good can his qualifications be. The junior brother didn't understand, why was he so good. ”
Looking at Chen Chong with an angry face, Huang Liang shook his head and chuckled, turned around, looked up at the sky, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.
"Why, I don't know. ”
"Senior brother, you don't know either?" Chen Chong's originally angry face froze on his face.
"yes, I don't know. The confusion in Huang Liang's eyes disappeared, and he turned to a smile, "I don't know why, when I saw him that day, I felt that he must be very strong, stronger than you and me." Although he has forgotten everything and has not cultivated at all, I have a gut feeling that his future is limitless. ”
"So I begged my master to exempt him from his miscellaneous servants, and let him live with you and let you take care of it. I know that there is no basis for this, but doesn't it mean that as the cultivation reaches a high level, the whims in the dark are often extremely accurate? So this time, I want to trust my instincts. ”
Chen Chong on the side rolled his eyes, please, senior brother, people's cultivation is profound, how can you reach the realm of the master, you are a little monk of the eighth layer of condensation, you have the feeling in the dark, how can you let those elders who are married to the Dan Yuan Infant live. Of course, he only dared to slander these words in his heart, and never dared to say them.
Ignoring Chen Chong's careful thoughts on the side, Huang Liang thought about what he had done this time, and there was something incredible in his heart. Is this what he did? Looking at his hands, Huang Liang frowned, it seems that this time he is afraid that he is a little slack. But after thinking about it, there is nothing wrong with indulging like this once in a while, Huang Liang's brows stretched again, and he walked slowly and leisurely into the distance with his hands behind his back.
Chen Chong, who was on the side, muttered in his heart, came back to his senses, and saw that his senior brother had already walked into the distance, so he hurriedly chased after him. Neither Huang Liang nor Chen Chong thought that the young man they brought back would become so dazzling in Jianmen in the future.
Three days went by in a flash.
When Huang Liang came to Chen Chong's door and was about to push the door, the door opened from the inside.
Looking at Ye Lingchuan who walked out onto him, Huang Liang's outstretched hand couldn't help but stop in mid-air. The young man was dressed in a cyan sword robe, and he carried the cyan sword behind him with a long white belt. The sword eyebrows and starry eyes are radiant, and the already delicate face makes people feel good. But the look on the young man's face has been seen for a long time, but it makes people feel a trace of sharpness, and it makes his eyes hurt a little.
"Senior brother, let's go. Looking at Huang Liang, who was stunned in front of him, Ye Lingchuan tilted his head and spoke.
Huang Liang, who came back to his senses, hurriedly withdrew his hand, coughed lightly, and turned around and walked towards the bottom of the peak. Is this still the young man that Chen Chong brought back, Huang Liang thought with some incredulity. Chen Chong, who was originally annoyed by being bluffed by Ye Lingchuan, saw this scene, and his heart suddenly balanced. If your own senior brothers are like this, then you have nothing to be ashamed of.
Walking all the way, looking at the other boys and girls walking around him, Ye Lingchuan recalled when he came. At that time, I couldn't control my own destiny. In the face of the purple python, he could only close his eyes and wait for death, and in the face of Chen Chong, he could only choose to obey. Also, I don't know who made me lose my memory. And all this is because I am not strong enough.
Clenching his fists tightly, Ye Lingchuan's eyes gradually became a little sharper. I want to be stronger, so strong that no one in this world can let me do what I don't want to do, there is no place I can't go, no one can stop my pace! And my own memory, no matter who it is, this account must be calculated.
Seeing that Ye Lingchuan, who was originally delicate and gentle beside him, had an extremely sharp aura rising from his body, Chen Chong swallowed his saliva and quietly moved to the side, and began to agree with Huang Liang's thoughts in his heart, because his cultivation of the third layer of condensation qi also began to have some induction.
As Huang Liang turned over a mountain peak, what appeared in front of Ye Lingchuan was a square that was countless times larger than the last time.
Sword Gate, Tianxing Square.
"The morning classes of the disciples of the various peaks of the Sword Gate are all held on this Tianxing Square. There are 100,000 disciples of the Sword Sect, and the scene every morning is spectacular. Huang Liang explained to Ye Lingchuan, looked for it now, took the two of them to find a place in the square, and sat down cross-legged.
The square was full of people, and the faces of each miscellaneous disciple were full of excitement and apprehension. Looking at all this, Ye Lingchuan, who just wanted to speak, raised his head suddenly, only to see a long rainbow in the sky, and in an instant, he came to the sky above the square, and when the light dissipated, an old man in a white robe appeared in front of everyone.
"Root bone test, start. ”
