(PS: Ask for recommendation votes)
Walking out of the stone house, Gan Qingyun found that the surroundings were all stone houses that were exactly the same as the stone houses behind him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAll stone houses are identical in appearance, arranged in an orderly row. In front of each row of stone houses there is a winding path, and these curved paths all connect to a large road that is extremely wide.
The foundation building monk beside Gan Qingyun stepped onto the path next to the stone house and walked towards the main road not far away. Gan Qingyun followed closely and rushed to the main road, and on the way, Gan Qingyun saw people walking out of the surrounding stone houses from time to time. These people were also a foundation building monk with a monk who had broken through the tenth layer of qi refining, and at this time, Gan Qingyun naturally understood that these stone houses were all teleportation arrays in the courtyards of various cities in Qingzhou.
After Gan Qingyun and his party walked on the big road, Gan Qingyun saw the end of the straight road. It was a huge mountain, but it was covered with houses. This can't be called a mountain anymore, Gan Qingyun feels that this is simply a city. The closer he got closer, the more carefully Gan Qingyun looked, and the more carefully he looked, the more shocked Gan Qingyun felt.
The entire mountain peak is towering into the clouds, Gan Qingyun can only see the peaks below the clouds, and as for the clouds above the clouds, they are covered by white clouds, and Gan Qingyun can't see them if he wants to. And the city wall, the wall of the cliff city is nothing compared to the city wall here. Gan Qingyun looked at the city wall in the distance, and he estimated that this city wall was nearly a hundred zhang high, to say the least.
"The mountain peak in front is the state courtyard of Haoran Academy in Qingzhou, and the state academy has regulations that monks under the age of a hundred miles with the state academy as the center are not allowed to fly. And those stone houses must have guessed that they are the destinations of the teleportation arrays of the various city courtyards. Your tomorrow's competition is at the top of this mountain, and the competition here is not real like the competition in the castle courtyard, so you don't have to worry about getting hurt. At the end of the competition, if you can finish in the top three, then you can go to the main hospital for the final competition. But I'll leave, and someone from the state will take you to the main house. The foundation building monk who was walking in front of Gan Qingyun said to Gan Qingyun as he walked.
After the foundation building monk finished speaking, she suddenly stopped, and she looked back at Gan Qingyun. He turned his head again, continued to hurry, and said with some sadness: "However, even if you can get a good ranking in the competition of the main hospital, it is not necessarily a good thing!"
"I don't know why Uncle Li said that?" Gan Qingyun asked with some puzzlement.
"If you get in the top 10 in the main hospital, you can enter the main hospital without conditions. However, those of you who are in the top ten have to enter a secret realm with the disciples selected by the other four sects to grab resources. However, every time the disciples who came out of it would be half as many as the disciples who entered, or even less. This Uncle Li said unusually calmly this time.
After listening to Uncle Li's words, Gan Qingyun stopped talking. At this time, Gan Qingyun thought that he would have to learn the use of the red gourd given by his ancestor first, so that he would have an additional means of saving his life. When the state academy is over, Gan Qingyun is still ready to see if he has time to go to the state academy's library to have a look. After all, the library pavilion of the state courtyard must be much better than the city courtyard, Gan Qingyun thought so and soon arrived under the city wall.
After entering the city, Gan Qingyun and Uncle Li were taken to their residence. After arriving at his residence, Gan Qingyun took out the red gourd given by his ancestor, and he probed his divine thoughts into the gourd. After a while, Gan Qingyun withdrew his divine thoughts.
I saw Gan Qingyun throw the gourd into the air, and after the gourd was thrown into the air, it quickly became larger. In an instant, there was a child-sized person, and Gan Qingyun's mouth was also chanting a spell. I saw that the top of the gourd of the red gourd that had become larger in the air had been removed at some point, and a black gas rushed out of the red gourd, which was the size of a snare, and there was a hoarse sound in the black smoke, and a normal eagle-sized condor flew out of it. This condor is completely black, but it is made of the black smoke. The figure flew around the room and then flew back into the black smoke. Subsequently, the black smoke was inhaled into the red gourd. After absorbing the black smoke, the size of the red gourd quickly became smaller, and when it was only the size of a palm, it fell into Gan Qingyun's hands again.
Gan Qingyun looked at the red gourd in his hand with satisfaction, and then put it into the storage ring. This red gourd was a treasure that the Jindan Master Ancestor had accidentally captured when he was young, and it had helped him save the day many times. It's just that after that Jindan Master Ancestor broke through to Jindan, this gourd had no effect on him. This will be given to Gan Qingyun, and I hope he can get the top three.
And the black smoke coming out of the red gourd was produced by the gourd's body, but the black smoke had no effect. It's just that the condor it produced has a lot of effect, and this condor is called the Iron Beak Condor. The iron-beaked condor, its power is the iron mouth. And its flight speed is not slow, if it is pecked by it, even if it is a skin refining perfection like Gan Qingyun, it will have to lose a piece of meat, not to mention those ordinary monks.
After putting away the red gourd, Gan Qingyun meditated for a while. By the time he opened his eyes again, the sun had already set. Walking out of his residence, Gan Qingyun came to a place suitable for watching the panoramic view of the mountain.
At this time, the place where Gan Qingyun was located was halfway up the mountain. He leaned against a fence and looked down the hill with his eyes. The mountain is brightly lit, like a city that never sleeps. And farther away are the rows of stone houses when Gan Qingyun first came. The stone houses are arranged in an arc around this huge mountain, and there are peaks farther away, but these peaks are one after another, unlike the "lonely city" where Gan Qingyun is now. The peaks are also fanned around the city, as if there is a small circle in a big circle, and a smaller circle in a small circle, and these circles surround the huge city.
Gan Qingyun stood there like this, looking at the bright lights and lofty mountains in front of him, he thought of his former self again. At that time, he had just walked out of Wolong Village, although he had nothing when he was away, but he still had a hometown, and there were some people who thought of him, although he was away at that time, he was not much lonely. Later, after becoming the prime minister under one person and above ten thousand, he had a big house and many servants in the house, but Gan Qingyun felt lonely and extremely lonely. Thinking of this, Gan Qingyun looked at the sky again, there was a bright moon in the sky, only this bright moon was still the same as usual.
The leaves are green and yellow, fall off when they are yellow, and grow again when they fall. The world has been changing, but the starry sky and the life and death parting of the world have not changed. Before he practiced, Gan Qingyun didn't go to bed early at night. Sometimes when he can't sleep, he will look at the starry sky at night. When I was a child, when it came to the festival, Gan Qingyun would use candy to trick Ah Hua next door to come out to play. Ah Hua is the daughter of the carpenter Wang next door to Gan Qingyun, and her full name is Wang Yiting. Wang Yiting likes to look at the stars in the sky, Gan Qingyun accompanied her to watch the stars, and Gan Qingyun also liked the starry sky at that time. This can be regarded as the reason why Gan Qingyun has always felt that the starry sky at night is the most beautiful, especially when the sky is full of stars. And that Ah Hua is Gan Qingyun's later wife.
Now, Gan Qingyun is looking at the sky again, and his heart is infinitely melancholy. At this moment, Gan Qingyun suddenly heard someone calling him behind his back, "Brother Yun, Brother Yun." Keep up!"
"It's Ah Hua. Gan Qingyun heard this voice and hurriedly turned around. At this point, behind him is no longer the house and walls from which he came. It was a crowded downtown area, surrounded by small vendors hawking, and a girl was standing in the crowd waving to herself, this girl was wearing two ponytails, and her delicate face was watching Gan Qingyun wave at him. This girl is Wang Yiting, but she is only about twelve or thirteen years old at this time.
Gan Qingyun looked puzzled, and he turned his head to look ahead of him again. The brightly lit houses and mountains are gone, replaced by a bustling street with people coming and going. Only then did Gan Qingyun realize that this place was no longer Qingzhou, or that he had fallen into a certain phantom array.
At this time, Wang Yiting had already come to Gan Qingyun's side. As soon as Gan Qingyun turned around, the beautiful girl was blushing and wanted to hold Gan Qingyun's hand. At this moment, Gan Qingyun saw that Wang Yiting had a huge flying sword slashing towards her on her head. Gan Qingyun wanted to push her away, but it was too late. The giant sword slashed at the top of the girl's head, and the girl's face suddenly turned into a hideous grimace, and the surrounding bustling streets had become gloomy and deserted.
A dazzling light suddenly emanated from the giant sword, and Gan Qingyun only felt a light in front of him, and then he couldn't see anything. After a while, the light dissipated, and Gan Qingyun opened his eyes, only to find that he was back in the state courtyard where he was standing just now. He looked back in a daze and saw that Uncle Li was standing behind him.
"You were disturbed by the Heavenly Demon just now, if I hadn't come in time, I'm afraid your consciousness would have been taken away by the Heavenly Demon. Let's eat this condensing pill first, and I'll talk to you about it later. As he spoke, there was an extra pill in Uncle Li's hand.
