To the north of the Sword Sect Miscellaneous Courtyard, countless strange peaks are towering, and the vegetation of each peak is flourishing, and it is warm like spring all year round.

And in the place surrounded by the mountains, there is a huge valley, the clouds and mist in the valley linger all year round, and the five sword-shaped peaks are suspended in the middle of this valley according to the position of the five sides.

The birds on the peak are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the trees are lush and tall, and many ancient halls are looming in the fog, just like a fairyland on earth.

At the highest point of the central mountain, in a magnificent palace, two men with immortal wind bones were sitting at this time, talking to each other.

"Senior Brother Zhou, what is the result of the mysterious matter?" At the top of the list sat a middle-aged man wearing a golden crown, a long beard, and a face like a heavy jujube, smiling, this person was the head of the Sword Sect Ying Wuji.

"More than ten years ago, I heard that Xuanji was stranded in the Medicine God Valley and went to see the Lord of Qianmenglong Valley, but when I arrived, I was told that he had already left, and I thought it was a coincidence, so I didn't care too much. Later, he traveled all the way, chasing most of the Xuan Domain, just a month ago, it was rumored that he had entered the Broken Cloud Mountain Range, and when the main seat arrived, he had already left the Shangqing Sect. After thinking about it, he realized that he had the intention to avoid it, and he had no choice but to return to the sect. The handsome man sitting at the top of the table bowed his hand, and his words were full of helplessness. This person was none other than Zhou Lingtian who had returned from Lin Feng City.

"In that case, this matter is over!Senior Brother Zhou has bothered this time!" Ying Wuji was silent for a long time, nodded at Zhou Lingtian, and said with a smile.

"Brother Boss has said that in order to find out about that matter, it is worth the hard work of this seat. Zhou Lingtian smiled and replied, after a while, he suddenly frowned, as if he remembered something, and said with some hesitation:

"There is something I don't understand, and I hope that the master brother can solve it. "

"Oh, with the experience of the junior and brother, there are still things that I don't know, it seems extraordinary. Ying Wuji put away his smile and said with some doubts.

"At the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, the ancestors created the law and fought for their lives, wanting to be with the sky. However, the way of heaven is constant, eternal and unchanging, and all things have an end of time. Yin flourishes and yang declines, day pole and night comes, one profit and one loss, cause and effect cycle. On the way back, I saw that the sect had accepted a boy, and the perfect spiritual root had a psychic sword body. After seeing it, he personally calculated a hexagram, but found that the hexagram was disordered and the heavenly opportunity was not obvious. The so-called abnormal things must have demons, combined with that incident, does it indicate anything?" Zhou Lingtian said solemnly.

After hearing this, Ying Wuji's eyes flashed, and he pondered for a moment, and said: "Senior brother's way of divination is second to none in the sect, if you can't even calculate it...... Whatever it is, be careful. "

"What Senior Brother said is that this seat will return to the peak first!" Zhou Lingtian was slightly silent, got up and said.

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Lingtian stepped out and disappeared from the hall.

Seeing this, Ying Wuji shook his head helplessly, and then took out an object, and his face gradually became solemn.

Three days later in the morning.

Wisps of sunlight reflected the mist, and the sky around the entire courtyard was colorful and beautiful.

A bell rang, echoing in the square, it was the morning bell, it rang every day, but today it rang three more times than usual.

When the ninth sound was over, the square, which was still empty, was already crowded, and there were people pouring into the venue from the surrounding buildings, and at first glance, most of them were boys and girls of six or seven years old.

A teenager or girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was busy arranging their own places for the children who entered the field.

At this time, the square was divided into two parts, east and west.

In the center of the west square, there is a silver column about 49 zhang high and 4 zhang 9 feet in diameter, the column is covered with tadpole-like inscriptions, which looks a little messy but very neat.

In the east square, there is a bronze giant tripod with three legs and two ears at this time, this tripod is four zhang high, two zhang eight inches wide, and the pillars in the west field reflect each other, the tripod body is covered with yellow and red color, I don't know whether it is rust or bloodstains, the mouth of the tripod is covered by a huge bowl-like bronze.

Jing Yun looked at the bronze tripod in front of him, a little apprehensive in his heart, and muttered in a low voice: "This should be what the elders said about the assessment." "

The square was full of people, and time passed little by little, until it was almost noon when there was no crowd of people.

He sat bored on a white futon, and as far as he could see, most of the people sat quietly, but everyone's expressions were different, some were apprehensive, some were curious, some were nervous, everyone knew how important today was, and they were all waiting for the judgment of fate.

Of course, there are also some people with big nerves, who are talking loudly, such as Xu Budong and Zhang Bo.

When Jingyun came in, he looked for Zhang Yifang, and he hadn't seen him since he got off the boat that day. Moreover, there were so many people in the venue, everyone was wearing the same white clothes, and it was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack to find someone in the square of tens of thousands of people.

"Little ones, be quiet. "

Just when the two of them were about to make a move, a voice seemed to ring in their ears, and it was clearly audible.

Jing Yun raised his head and followed the sound, only to see that outside the door of the main hall, which was still empty just now, eight people had already appeared sitting on the chair at this time, and this voice was said by an old man in white who looked like he was about to enter the ground on the left.

"Old man Elder Lu Wei, the deacon of the outer gate, on behalf of the Sword Sect, welcomes the arrival of you little guys. With a gentle smile on his face, the deacon elder Lu Wei looked at the boys and girls who had quieted down in the hall and continued: "Presumably, when you came, I heard from the elders that the previous assessment is only a confirmation of qualifications, and there will be another real assessment. If you don't pass the assessment, there will be two choices, as for which two options there are, this is a later story, the old man just hopes that you can pass. "

Everyone in the audience listened quietly, for fear of missing a word, although they were young, they all knew that it was related to their future fate.

"The situation of this sect is different from other sects, it is not only for disciples with spiritual roots, this sect has a practice, and people who do not have spiritual roots can also go to their own broad road through hard work. Presumably, some of the little guys have heard that this kung fu can only be practiced by a very small number of people, which is also the reason why this sect accepts apprentices as a sword sect in the world. It is precisely because of this needle-in-a-haystack that you will come, so you little guys must seize this rare opportunity. Lu Wei looked at the seven or eight thousand boys and girls sitting quietly in the east square, and said meaningfully.

Jing Yun clenched his little fists, his eyes were full of determination, and he stared intently at the old man who was speaking on the stage, as if to say, "I will definitely succeed." "

Not only did he look like this, but the seven or eight thousand boys and girls in the field all straightened their waists, and even Xu Budong and Zhang Bo, who had always been hanging, were full of anticipation at this time.

"What the old man said next, the little ones should listen carefully. Lu Wei looked at the square in the east, nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to look at the other side, and continued:

"In the west square, the towering pillar is called the Spiritual Pillar, which is used to stimulate the spiritual energy in your spiritual roots. The specific method is very simple, after the assessment begins, the spiritual pillar will emit a powerful spiritual pressure and aura, forcing out the wisp of aura in your spiritual root, you only need to use your mind to introduce that wisp of aura into the dantian. In other words, you just have to think about it to go to the three fingers below your navel.

Of course, this also has something to do with the length of time you persist, the longer the time, the more aura emitted by the Spirit Pillar absorbed in your body, so the longer those who persist for a long time, the greater the Yuan Fetus condensed in the dantian, and the higher the future achievements. "

However, even if some people persist for a long time, the aura they absorb may not be as much as others absorb in the same time, which is a reflection of their qualifications. There are no absolutes in the world, you just have to work hard. Lu Wei paused with a solemn face, stroked his slightly gray beard and said with a smile.

After Lu Wei finished speaking, the children in the audience were suddenly stunned, it was so simple, they all had expectations in their eyes, they were eager to try, and they all had strong confidence in themselves.

But is it really that simple?

After a few moments, the same voice sounded again.

"Little guy in the east, you can understand that what you just said has nothing to do with you, and now it is about you. Lu Wei looked at the east square and continued.

"You have also seen that the bronze tripod in the middle is used to arrange the eyes of the blood condensation array. What is an eye? That's not what you understand right now. The Evil Blood Condensation Array is a formation created by the Blood Sword Patriarch tens of thousands of years ago, and the evil qi and blood qi emitted by this array are used to stimulate the faint aura in the root bone veins in your body.

Don't be surprised, although some people don't have spiritual roots, but as spiritual creatures created between heaven and earth, some people will be born with extremely rare spiritual energy in their bodies, and these spiritual qi will walk in the root bone veins. Therefore, some people's innate physique is far better than ordinary people, but relatively speaking, there is no one in ten thousand, and even rarer than those with spiritual roots. "

"Later, when the formation is opened, you only need to do one thing, and that is to insist on not fainting and do your best to persevere. The longer you persist, the more blood and evil qi emitted by the Blood-Destroying Condensation Array can mobilize the meager aura in your body and condense a primordial fetus where blood-shattering spirits coexist in your dantian. The primordial fetus is the foundation of cultivation. Your destiny is in your own hands. Lu Wei said solemnly.

The time was just noon, and the pins in the audience could be heard, and everyone was waiting for fate to come.

"Let's start!" the two people sitting in the middle seat, one of them, a middle-aged man with sword eyebrows and eagle eyes, and a white beard, said lightly.
