Chapter 20: Into the Cloud Valley

As soon as the time limit of an hour passed, the examination papers in the hands of the candidates magically floated up one after another, like maple leaves, floating towards the three deacons.

There was only one question in the exam, but the answers were strange, and the three deacons didn't take long to read all the answer sheets for this year, and actually picked out fifty answers that were close to the correct ones.

"Fifty people is already a lot, and it seems that this year's outer gate is much more lively than in previous years. ”

Lang Qianli still smiled, touched his white chubby chin and said, Yang Yifan read out the names of fifty people respectively, and the young man who was named hurriedly stepped forward, all of them were overjoyed, among these fifty people, Bai Yi's brothers and sisters and Gao Ren were impressively listed, but there was no name of the county lord Gao Tian.

Yang Yifan glanced at the fifty young people opposite, and said loudly: "You have a lot of luck and passed the big exam, from today on, you are my outer disciples of the Cangyun Sect, and the others can disperse and come back to the exam next year." ”

The orders of the immortal family, how dare the other young people disobey, and after a while, the people who did not pass the exam gradually dispersed, and the more than ten Taoist priests called out the flying boats again, each carrying three or four, followed by the flying swords of the three major deacons, and took fifty young people far away.

On the edge of the meadow, the county lord Gao Tian looked at the young man of the Bai family on the wooden boat with a trace of reluctance, and suddenly felt empty in his heart.

"Sister, go back and tell Daddy that I passed the exam!"

Gao Ren's shout reduced Gao Tian's loneliness, the county lord raised his jade arm lightly, waved his hand slowly, and didn't know who he was saying goodbye to, but the girl's heart already had a hazy concern.

The Cangyun Sect is located in the northern part of the Great Pu Kingdom, and is built near a strange scenery called 'Qingshan'.

Qingshan, in fact, is a mountain range of the general name, the mountains are like a green ocean, the flying insects and beasts in the mountains, deep and quiet, there are more clouds and cranes swimming, fireflies flying, every summer night, tens of thousands of fireflies will be the depths of the mountain range dotted into a strange ocean, like the reflection of the stars.

The main peak of this mountain range is located in the center of the mountain range, called Qingshan, high into the clouds, if you look up at the foot of the green mountain, you can only see half of the mountain, the other half is hidden in the clouds and mist, it is very magnificent and mysterious, it is the wonders of Qingshan, so that Qingzhou is named after this.

From leaving Qingshui City at noon, it was not until evening that everyone came to the vicinity of Qingshan.

The outer gate of the Cangyun Sect is not in the mountains, but is built in a valley on the periphery of the mountains, this valley is the entrance of the Qingshan Mountain Range, and only by walking out of the valley can you really reach the mountains, because the valley is like the entrance of the Cangyun Sect, so it is called 'Cloud Valley'.

The valley is a huge area, full of vegetation, greenery, and a crystal clear stream that flows from the mountains and runs through the valley.

As soon as they entered the Cloud Valley, the young people who came here for the first time suddenly opened their eyes wide, and their faces were full of novelty.

Walking on a quiet path, Bai Yi looked around, nodded slightly, and under his perception, a stream of aura that was several times purer than the outside world floated from the depths and almost spread to the entire valley.

It seems that in the depths of this Cloud Valley, there must be a spiritual vein.

Feeling the abundant aura, Bai Yi immediately came to the conclusion that in the cultivation realm, there are three kinds of spiritual veins, which are low-level, intermediate-level and high-level spiritual veins, and on the other hand, the spirit stones produced by the three spiritual veins are low-level, intermediate-level and high-level spirit stones.

The more advanced the spiritual vein, the more precious its value is, the spiritual stone is the foundation of the cultivator's life, and the spiritual vein that produces the spiritual stone is a rare resource that the major sects compete for, in order to compete for a spiritual vein, it can even cause a vicious battle between the two sects.

This kind of cultivation realm is the most basic common sense, and the outer disciples who have cultivated for a few years will feel it deeply, how can Bai Yi not know, but according to his estimate, the spiritual veins in the depths of the Cloud Valley are at most the level of low-level spiritual veins.

Next to the path are some towering ancient trees, the trunk is surrounded by branches, in the crowd, a young man who has just passed the immortal examination passed by a huge vine when he felt novel, raised his hand and touched it twice, it was very strange to start it cool.

He was so bad at this touch that he saw that the green vine actually writhed, and suddenly a huge mouth of blood poked out from the end of the vine, and this vine turned out to be a dark green giant python!

The appearance of the giant python caused an exclamation, this kind of python more than three feet thick, can easily swallow people in one bite, who can usually see it, and scared these young people who came to the outer door for the first time, especially the one who owes his hand, he was directly frightened in place, with his mouth wide open and his face full of horror, and he forgot to run.

Yang Yifan, who was walking in front, heard the movement, looked back, raised his hand and slapped a palm in the air, pressing a faint spiritual power towards the giant python.

This giant python is just a common beast in the valley, and when it was alarmed, it burst out and hurt people, and when it felt the aura cover, it immediately closed its big mouth, climbed the ancient tree in gray, and merged with the vines again.

Yang Yifan's palm was actually not powerful, it only played a deterrent role, and the giant python inhabited the Cloud Valley all the year round, so he naturally knew the horror of the cultivators, and he didn't dare to make a mistake at all.

Although it has no power, the ability to raise its arms to surprise the python still attracts the amazement of the new disciples, and people yearn for cultivation even more.

Seeing this scene, Lang Qianli showed a low smile, and said in a deep voice: "The novelty of Cloud Valley is more than that, when you get to the valley, you will open your eyes, and when the time comes, you will have a good taste of the cruelty of the cultivation realm." ”

With a strange smile, Long Qianli left first, and it was not until half an hour later that these new disciples finally entered the central area of the Cloud Valley.

In the depths of the Cloud Valley, there is an extremely open lawn, and the surrounding mountains form a natural wonder, like a deep well, which obscures people's vision, and in addition to the lush ancient forest and mountains, there is only a line of sky overhead.

Around the lawn, there are quaint wooden houses, in which the figures are shaking, it should be the residence of the outer disciples, in the center of the lawn, there are huge pieces of bluestone, there are dozens of pieces, there are actually huts built on the bluestone, each piece of bluestone not only has a hut, but there is also a wooden man standing in front of the door of the hut, which looks very strange.

After the new disciples were brought here, the three deacons handed them over to a middle-aged disciple and left.

The middle-aged disciple first led everyone to a large wooden house, and said to an old man in his fifties in the room, "Senior Brother Li, these are the new disciples who have entered the outer gate this year, and I will bring them to receive the Feilu Sword and the elixir. ”

The old disciple in the room looked up, and while rummaging through it reluctantly, he asked lukewarmly, "Have they tested the spiritual root?"

"Just entered the valley, Deacon Yang has already gone to inform the sect, presumably the deacon elder will arrive later. ”

"There are quite a few people this year, and I don't know if there will be a spiritual root body, if you have a spiritual root, then you will be lucky. ”

The old man surnamed Li muttered, distributed a simple wooden sword to the new disciples, and then gave each person a porcelain bottle and a gray robe, and explained numbly: "The name of the sword is Feilu, made of reedwood, and it can cut down ancient trees after being transported into the aura, and the pill in the bottle is called Tongmai Dan, and each person is given ten pills per month, the effect is to smooth the meridians, and taking it will help with cultivation when running the mental method." ”

After getting the wooden sword and the elixir, the new disciples were very excited, they had heard of the elixir, but they had never seen it, but they didn't expect to get ten pills just after entering the outer gate, and they had it every month.

Glancing at the elated new disciple, the old man surnamed Li sneered: "Don't be too happy, although the elixir has been given to you, but whether you have the opportunity to eat it in your stomach or not depends on your ability. ”
