The number of ninety-nine is the extreme of heaven and earth, so it makes perfect sense for Qingxuan to choose to open the mountain gate on this day.

Although there was a spontaneous elimination, at least thirty people were still unscathed.

These people have great merit in terms of talent and temperament, or they are like several top family children, who are guarded by masters.

Shen Lian was not the first to arrive, nor was he the last.

The morning sun is rising, and the cloud ban that covers the mountain gate keeps spitting, and the smoke gradually dissipates, revealing a mountain climbing road.

The first to enter was a scholar, surnamed Lu.

This person is not a child of a family, he can't tell the history, and he is the same as Shen Lian, one of the three most mysterious in this group.

Someone tried to attack him, but each time he was unscathed, and as for the attacker, the next day, he left in shame.

Shen Lian guessed that this scholar surnamed Lu must have a means to attack the heart.

Although Lu Sheng is a scholar, he is tall and has a chivalrous temperament of generosity and tragedy.

After he entered, nothing strange happened, and the people behind him rushed in.

The second mysterious man was a thin, ordinary-looking weak young man, as if he didn't dare to speak loudly.

And one of the characteristics of this person is that you can easily ignore him.

Even if Shen Lian was keen, every time he had a meal, he would sit next to Shen Lian with the meal, and Shen Lian would be surprised.

If it weren't for Shen Lian observing him for a long time, I am afraid that he would have forgotten what he looked like several times.

If you don't even pay attention, you don't know where he's gone.

Few people found the strange place of the weak boy, only Shen Lian and a few people noticed.

Therefore, it is said that they are the three most mysterious people, but in fact, the weak boy has almost no name.

When Shen Lian stepped into this mountaineering road, he habitually looked back, although he was surprised many times, he was still surprised to see this weak young man.

The speed of the young man is not fast, and he can't even see the foundation of martial arts, and even falls.

But he still didn't hurry, got up and walked up the stone steps of the mountain.

Smoke curls up and covers everyone.

It was said that thirty people went in together, but once inside, it was as if they were in a different space, and no one else could be seen.

The people outside the mountain gate can't see what's going on inside, and the people inside don't know what other people are doing.

From the first day, people kept rolling out of the mountain road, hitting their heads and bleeding.

If anyone pays attention, they will find that these people who have fallen have actually killed people in the town.

A total of twenty-two fell out, obviously less than ten people, and it seemed that everyone ignored a problem, the mountain gate was wide open, and there was a deadline of half a year.

At the top of Qingxuan's mountain, there is a heavenly pond.

It emits a cold air like a white mist.

There are two old men playing chess under the tree by the pool, one in a red robe and the other in a gray robe.

Shen Lian was the first to reach the top of the mountain, he was not surprised, in fact, due to the strength of his divine soul, coupled with the "Shangqing Lingbao Natural Locking Heart and Mind Fixing True Solution", there were very few illusions that could confuse him when visualizing that innate god.

The so-called path of inquiry is actually based on illusion.

And to test these people who have not entered the immortal stream, it is impossible to be too profound.

Shen Lian saw the two old men, but the two old men did not leave him and played chess by themselves.

Three days and three nights passed, and Shen Lian still didn't see anyone else come out.

If he was an ordinary person, he should be complacent about how good he was, but Shen Lian didn't have much pride, because he knew best how many catties he had.

It's not easy to live on the top of this mountain, the mist in the cold pool of the Tianchi is really cold enough, so cold that Shen Lian has to resist all the time.

Even though he has all eight veins and is endless, he has not eaten or drunk for three days and three nights, and the loss of internal qi can be described as serious.

In fact, to this day, he can also absorb a little bit of heaven and earth vitality into his body, but he can't put it out.

In fact, he might as well stay in the path of inquiry, and the consumption is much smaller.

It wasn't that he didn't ask the two old men, but they didn't answer any of them, and he didn't know how long it would take.

Out of the path of inquiry, there is no other path, and there is a moat around it, which cannot be crossed.

Unless Shen Lian can fly.

At the same time, the wind was cold above him, and Shen Lian didn't dare to go out of his body, for fear of being blown away and ending up in a scattered state.

Waiting is not a very difficult thing, the most painful thing is the waiting of the unknown, the waiting of no expectations.

This kind of test can make a hero who fights with iron despair.

Shen Lian is a human being, if he has a heart, he will naturally have emotions, and that kind of pervasive despair makes him on the verge of madness.

But reason told him not to go crazy and let him continue to calm down.

There was fire in his chest, but his mind was cold.

He knew very well that he was on the verge of going mad, and he almost wanted to enter the path of inquiry again and go down the mountain, but a premonition told him that after going down, the fairy fate would be gone.

But sober rational analysis, in the end, there is no only fairy fate in the world, and Qingxuan is not the only one.

Shen Lian watched the game of chess quietly next to the two old men, no one knew that under his calm appearance, his madness could erupt like a volcano at any time.

Shen Lian gradually shifted his attention to the chessboard, and every time the two old men lost a son, it would take a long time.

His chess skills are not particularly superb, but he can still understand them, and black and white are evenly matched.

And the complexity of the situation is even more entangled, with a set in a set and a knot in a knot.

This is much more complicated than any internal qi practice route.

Shen Lian didn't speak, his attention was on the chessboard.

On the chessboard, black and white have less and less room for each, and it is about to reach the final stage, but it is difficult to see the winner or loser.

It's just that when Shen Lian watched these chess pieces fall into place, sometimes when he noticed a certain chess piece, there would be an acupuncture point on his body that beat violently.

Sometimes it's sunspots, sometimes it's whites, and so on.

When he constantly links the black and white, the beating acupuncture points on his body will also be connected and interconnected.

Human body acupoints ~ Dao is as dense as stars, and even many acupuncture points do not know the function.

He put the chess pieces on the chessboard, large and small corresponding to the acupoints ~ Dao on the body, a total of more than 300 acupoints ~ Dao, of which more than 100 acupuncture points were penetrated by him, the restless internal qi was greatly calmed, and the anger in his heart gradually subsided.

Only now did he understand that in this game of chess, there was a profound line of practicing qi and practicing martial arts.

It's a pity that before he finished watching this game of chess, the old man in the red robe waved his hand and messed up the chess game.

The gray-robed old man scolded: "You're going to lose, what does this mean?"

"This batch of three seedlings has arrived, it's time to return to the master. The old man in the red robe twisted his beard and smiled, with an expression of providence.

The gray-robed old man looked to the side, and behind Shen Lian, sure enough, there was a scholar and a weak young man.

As for the other people on the road of inquiry, they have all been eliminated, and I don't know if there will be seven more people in the next time, and ten people will be gathered.
