As a natural barrier between the two countries, the Zhongming Mountains are located on the border with Qinglin Kingdom to the south of Luobu Kingdom. The bell of the main peak rings like a huge wooden bowl with an upside-down clasp, and its grass is abundant, and the green forest is shady, and at night there will be countless roars of wild beasts, which often deter the faint-hearted from stepping at the foot of the mountain.

Daye Town is an ordinary town at the foot of Zhongmingfeng Mountain, and it is the only way for adventurers to enter the Zhongming Mountain Range. Juxiang Building, the largest hotel in town, was at noon, and the store was full of people as usual, shouting and shouting.

"Have you heard, the Sumeru faction will come to the town tomorrow to recruit disciples, and when Lao Tzu becomes an immortal tomorrow, he will keep your fragrant and spicy food. ”

"Forget it, the people in the fairy sect recruit all the little cubs with full spiritual roots, just you, the five big and three thick, or the next life. ”

The two men were sitting on the east side of the tavern, one of them was a burly man with a red scarf on his head, while the other was slightly emaciated, dressed in a cloth robe, with his hair casually draped over his shoulders.

The Sumeru sect is the closest immortal cultivation sect to Daye Town, and its masters are like clouds, which can be regarded as a medium-sized sect, and it is also a small reputation in Luo Buguo, and the matter of recruiting disciples in Daye Town tomorrow will spread everywhere like a hurricane, making the people in Daye Town several times more than usual.

"Little Er, serve the wine!"

Dahan shouted into the store, and after a while, he saw a child-like Xiao Er coming to the two with a plate of wine and food.

"Guest, you want a wine!"

"This little second looks very good, it's a pity to do things here, it's better to try your luck with the immortals tomorrow, hahaha. Dahan looked at Xiao Er standing at the table and said casually.

"The guest officer praised it falsely, the small ones are just begging for food, and the immortals or something are not something that a layman like me can talk about. Xiao Er's face was shy, and there was a heroic spirit between his eyebrows.

"Okay, it's okay to be an ordinary person with peace of mind, like us who lick the tip of the knife all day long, life is not easy!" The big man took a sip and said loudly, "This bit of silver is rewarded to you!"

"Okay, thank you, officer!"

The second child's name is Xu Hao, and his parents are monks, but since Xu Hao was very young, he went to the Zhongming Mountain Range, and there was no news after that, only leaving Xu Hao a piece of jade pendant, and it was the hotel owner who took him in and arranged for him to work.

The boss's son is called Wang Dagui, fifteen this year, one year younger than Xu Hao, and Xu Hao is a companion who has played since childhood, his father has relied on huge financial resources to get Wang Dagui a place for tomorrow's Sumeru faction, hoping that his son can become an immortal and soar in the future.

Since Daye Town is the only way for people to go to Zhongming Mountain, countless explorers have left footprints here, and various travel notes are scattered in the town.

When the store closed on this day, Xu Hao returned to his house, picked up the unfinished "Luo Bu Wan Beast Collection" on the desk and continued to study.

"Shimmering Eagle, a golden steel feather, a second-order flying spirit beast tiger striped python, looks like a tiger skin, contains highly poisonous teeth in its teeth, acts quickly, and is a third-order spirit beast"

Xu Hao's parents saw that Xu Hao had three spiritual roots at a very young age, and although he was not outstanding, he could be regarded as one in a hundred immortal cultivators. They left a jade pendant for Xu Hao, but it was actually a jade slip. It contains a recipe for the Qi training period and a partial map of the Zhongming Mountains.

Xu Hao has worked hard since he was ten years old, loves to read, although he has not been to the Zhongming Mountain Range, but he has a certain understanding of many spirit beasts and fairy herb elixirs, and he has taught himself the introductory exercises of the Qi training period.

"Knock, knock, knock. There was a quick knock at the door.

"It's me, Dagui. ”

"Come in. ”

Xu Hao immediately put down the book in his hand.

"Brother Hao, you're still studying so late."

"Yes, as the old saying goes, travel thousands of miles to read thousands of books, you should read more books in the future. ”

"Haha, forget it, I'm a big rough person, and I get hairy when I see a book. Dagui scratched his head, and then his face turned straight, "Brother, tomorrow is the day for the immortals to select disciples, my father got me a place, are you sure you don't want to participate, if you are with me, you will have to take care of each other." ”

"Dagui, how dare I have a relationship with an immortal like this, my brother won't go, when you become an immortal in the future, if you can still remember me as a person, then my brother will be satisfied. ”

"Well, why don't you think about it tonight, and maybe you'll change your mind. Dagui looked frustrated, but he still had a trace of expectation for Xu Hao in his heart.

"Well, it's so late, you better go back and rest early, or your father will beat you up again. ”

Sending Dagui away, Xu Hao couldn't help but have a trace of helplessness on his face, he had already guessed that Dagui would definitely come to persuade him tonight, and why didn't he want to go to the Immortal Sect, with his qualifications, he would definitely be able to occupy a place in the sect, but whenever he thought of his parents, he immediately dispelled this thought.

Xu Hao's parents were actually disciples of the Sumeru faction, and his father was even more qualified, and he was the leader of their generation, but he was also jealous of the people who came to the door, and was finally framed as a spy of his faction, and finally both of them were sent to the Zhongming Mountain Range in the form of a mission to assassinate them, and at the critical moment, they had to entrust the only friend of the year to entrust the fashionable and young Xu Hao to the hotel owner in Daye Town, and made a jade pendant that can only be opened by blood to Xu Hao.

Yu Peishang told Meng Hao the ins and outs of the matter, and warned him not to think about revenge until his strength was strong, so as not to suffer a disaster.

Xu Hao sat cross-legged on the bed, guiding the aura in the meridians to circulate in the body, all those who cultivate immortals do not need to fall asleep at night, as long as they meditate all night like this, they will be full of energy on the second day, and their cultivation will be stabilized.

The next day, Xu Hao woke up from meditation, and after some tidying up, he came to the hotel as usual, it was still early in the morning, but the store was already crowded, presumably because the Sumeru faction came to recruit disciples today.

"Brother Hao, get up so early. ”

Following the prestige, I saw Wang Dagui open the curtain of the back store, walked to the hall wearing a brocade satin, and said hello to Xu Hao.

"Yes, Dagui, I'm busy today. ”

Dagui's fat face showed a sense of expectation, and he whispered: "Brother, have you thought about it, are you really not going?"

"Hey, this kind of thing still depends on whether God gives me a chance. I wanted to say that I couldn't go directly, but looking at the look on Dagui's face, Xu Hao had no choice but to say this.

"Haha, brother, don't worry, I see that you are a martial arts material, as long as you want to go, you will definitely be able to go. Dagui's expression was relieved, as if he felt that Xu Hao had changed his mind, and went out humming a little song all the way.

Xu Hao let out a long sigh, and then opened up the things of the day.

Almost all of the people in the store who were dressed in strange costumes came to participate in the selection today, and even if they couldn't be real disciples, it was fascinating to be a registered disciple. But suddenly, Xu Hao's eyes stared, and he noticed a person leaning against the window on the west side of the hotel, this person was dressed in a cyan robe, with hosta hair tied on his head, a handsome face, and a thin sword at his waist, which looked out of place with everyone around him. The most important thing is that Xu Hao felt a trace of spiritual power fluctuation on his body.

This can be regarded as the first time Xu Hao has seen a person who cultivates immortals since his parents left, sensing that the fluctuations of this person's cultivation are about the second layer of qi training, he did not hesitate to send a spiritual power to the jade pendant, hiding the aura fluctuations on his body, this is one of the two spells left by Xu Hao's parents on the jade pendant, as long as the cultivation is not more than his father, too many monks can not sense the aura fluctuations on Xu Hao's body. Another spell is that it can help Xu Hao resist the full force of a mid-stage foundation building realm cultivator.

Xu Hao immediately withdrew his gaze, not wanting him to notice it, but maybe Xu Hao's reaction was a little slow, and the green-robed monk glanced at Xu Hao as if intentionally or unintentionally, and a hint of an intriguing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
