The sun is setting and twilight is falling. A bright moon rises, bringing a starry night sky. A group of stars with lazy eyes blinking scattered around the bright moon. The light gauze of clouds floats in the sky, as if hiding the ethereal fairyland of the palace, and the distant sky is connected with the earth, forming a beautiful scene of the unity of heaven and earth, and while enjoying this beautiful scene, a howl like killing a pig resounded through the night sky, breaking this beautiful scene.

"Ahh

In the Mixed Yuan Sect, several disciples who had returned from going out were telling their juniors and disciples about their experiences when they went out on an expedition, when they suddenly heard a miserable scream.

"What's the sound? Who screamed so badly?"

"Senior brother, you just came back from outside the mountain, I don't know, it's a disciple that Uncle Liu just accepted, I don't know what mistakes were made, such screams happen every night and last for about half an hour, it's been the seventh day, and the senior brothers on the mountain are used to it."

"It's the same as killing a pig, and I don't know how Uncle Liu punished him, by the way, what is the name of this new junior brother?"

"It seems to be called Xia Mingfeng or something."

"Xia Mingfeng, what kind of mistake will you make when you first come to the mountain?"

"Senior brother, don't care about that Xia Mingfeng, continue to tell us about the experience outside, a few of us have been staying in the mountain for two or three years and are still outer disciples, unlike the senior brother's cultivation has reached the melting period and entered the inner door, so you can go out for a walk" Hearing the praise of many junior brothers, the senior brother led by this senior brother told the outer experience for the junior disciples with a smile on his face.

In front of the door of the cave on the peak of the sect, Liu Chan quietly looked at Xia Mingfeng in the black and red pillar of light, and listened to Xia Mingfeng's screams without wavering, but although Xia Mingfeng in the pillar of light screamed, he had been silently guiding the demonic qi into the blood.

Half an hour passed, the pillar of light dissipated, Xia Mingfeng opened his eyes, a trace of red light came out of his eyes, and disappeared in an instant, Liu Chan looked at the red light flashing in Xia Mingfeng's eyes and was slightly stunned, and hurriedly asked about his physical condition, and used his true qi to probe and check, but he didn't find any problems. Seeing that the master frowned and thought about it, he didn't make a sound to disturb the master, and closed his eyes and began to refine the demonic qi.

At the time of the initial initiation, there was only a slight trace of demonic energy, but after seven days of demonic qi infusion, the original few wisps of weak demonic blood in the bloodline wandered all over the body, constantly devouring and digesting the demonic qi accumulated in the past few days, becoming more and more thick, and the growth of demonic blood could be triggered by the demonic qi infusion every day.

Now the whole body is surging with new demon blood and devouring ordinary blood and newly poured demon qi, every time the demon blood grows, I feel that my strength is growing, and I find that the wound on my wrist no longer feels pain, I opened my eyes and looked at the dagger in front of me, I felt as if I could break it without effort, picked up the dagger and cut my wrist again, only to see a white mark on the skin The skin was not broken.

Looking at the white marks on his arm, he smirked, and wanted to show his achievements to the master, only to find that the master Liu Chan was no longer beside him, so he hurriedly stood up and walked into the cave, and ran forward happily when he saw Liu Chan.

"Master, the apprentice has completed the seven-day demonic qi infusion, and the blood in his whole body has been refined into demonic blood."

Liu Chan opened his eyes and looked at the smiling face that couldn't be found in the disciple's eyes, and his originally serious face couldn't help but smile a little more: "Feng'er, how do you feel now?"

"Master, the apprentice feels very good now, especially since he has a certain degree of strength and physical strength. As he spoke, he took out the dagger, put his hands on both ends, and bent the dagger at once.

"Come, show the teacher how your strength has grown. After speaking, he threw a palm-sized stone from the ring in his hand and threw it to the ground in front of Xia Mingfeng.

Xia Mingfeng looked at the ring in the master's hand, looked at it curiously for a long time, and then looked at the stone that looked like iron ore under him, and felt a slight chill coming from the palm of his hand, and then picked up the stone with both hands, and found that the stone was very light to hold with one hand, and looked at the master suspiciously.

"Yes, now the strength of one of your hands has reached about two hundred catties, and the small piece of cold iron ore that you were a teacher just now is only about one hundred catties, and the defense of your physical body is not bad, so you must continue to work hard and cultivate seriously in the future." ”

Xia Mingfeng nodded seriously: "Master, the apprentice knows." ”

"Master, the apprentice still has something to ask the teacher to do. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Master, does the apprentice cultivate his mental strength first or the immortal method first?"

Liu Chan closed his eyes and pondered for a long time: "Feng'er, you can't be in a hurry, you should focus on the current state first, and you will know when the time is ripe." Hearing this, Xia Mingfeng showed a thoughtful look.

"Feng'er, you've been in the sect for so long, you're still an outer disciple, you will be automatically promoted to an inner disciple after entering the melting period, and the outer disciple needs to complete the task every month, and you've already said hello to the teacher, and you'll start doing task cultivation from tomorrow, now you go to your own residence, someone will lead you." ”

Xia Mingfeng bowed to Liu Chan and withdrew from the cave. Outside the cave mansion, there was already a disciple waiting in the costume of the sect.

"Little brother Xia Mingfeng, dare to ask your senior brother's surname."

"Senior brother is polite, don't have your surname Zhou, Zhou Mian" "Senior Brother Zhou, the younger brother has just come to the sect, please take care of Senior Brother Zhou"

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Xia Mingfeng followed Senior Brother Zhou Mian to the path down the mountain, admiring the night sky along the mountain road, and couldn't help but think of his parents at home, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Finding that Senior Brother Zhou was already waiting for him in the distance, he hurriedly ran to him and smiled awkwardly.

"Senior Brother Zhou, I thought about something just now"

Zhou Mian waved his hand and said: "Little junior brother, it's too polite, they are all disciples of the first line, are you homesick?" I have been in the sect for seven or eight years, and I am also homesick, but now that I have finally reached the melting period, you can also go out to walk and practice, little junior brother, you also have to work hard, and reach the melting period as soon as possible." ”

The two chatted as they walked, and the conversation was particularly speculative. After some distance, Zhou Mian took Xia Mingfeng to the outer disciples' living area, where a thousand small buildings were erected, and Zhou Mian took out a token from his hand and handed it to Xia Mingfeng.

"Little junior brother, you are the latest to join the sect, there are 1,000 outer disciples, your house can only be at the end, just pour demonic qi or spiritual energy into the room when you enter it. ”

"Senior brother is out of the way, I understand this. Xia Mingfeng took the token and said without dissatisfaction.

Zhou Mian arched his hand and said, "Little junior brother, I won't take you with you for the rest of the way, there are regulations in the sect that inner disciples are not allowed to enter the living area of outer disciples." ”

"Well, thank you brother for leading the way. After Xia Mingfeng and Zhou Mian exchanged a few more words, they said goodbye to each other.

Walking towards the building, Xia Mingfeng looked at the small buildings of the same system from time to time, and each building was marked with a number, and after turning for a long time, he finally found his room at the end of the building, and entered the room with a token according to Zhou Mian's method.

The things placed in the room are very simple, there is a table and a few stools, and on the right wall hangs the portrait of Qi Zhengtian, the ancestor of the mixed ancestor, there is an incense case in front of the portrait, an incense burner is placed on the incense case, and a few futons are placed next to the incense case, which can be used by disciples to sit and practice.

The second floor is the bedroom, there is a large bed in the bedroom, and there is a screen on the side of the bed, and there is a wooden bucket at the screen for bathing.

When I walked to the side of the bed and was about to sit down, I found that there was a black and white robe on the bed, and the black and white colors were distinguished by gray lines.

Next to the clothes, there was a piece of jade slip and a small cloth bag, and he took out the jade slip and put it on his forehead, only to see that his consciousness was instantly sucked into the space in the jade slip, and a few big characters of the sect's rules and regulations came into view, Xia Mingfeng looked at the floating font and began to look at it slowly.

After half a day, I exited the jade slip space, and then I figured out the purpose of clothes and cloth bags, the inner door must wear the clothes worn by the disciples, the outer disciples are black and white and gray in the middle, and the inner disciples are silver, the core is golden, the true transmission is purple, the elder and the first seat are purple-red, the head is purple gold, and the elder is purple and black.

After picking up the clothes and replacing them with the clothes that had been changed for a few days, the clothes that originally felt a little bigger were automatically reduced to the clothes that fit in an instant, which made Xia Mingfeng feel very novel. Then he took the cloth bag and muttered to himself: "Can the small Qiankun bag hold three cubic things?" According to the instructions on the jade slip, after biting his finger, he squeezed out a trace of blood and dripped it on the cloth bag.

After absorbing the blood, Xia Mingfeng opened the bag and found that it contained a small copper mirror, and also dripped blood into the bronze mirror, only to see a flash of inspiration. The bronze mirror shows a meter-long and one-meter-long light and shadow, showing various tasks and difficulty and contribution points and rewards, and there are several button-like appearances next to it, writing the word acceptance, and the others are posting tasks and discussion areas, and the hands flash on the bronze mirror to close the copper mirror.

There is also a bottle of Bigu Dan in the small Qiankun bag, and then after using the small Qiankun bag to collect the bronze mirror, he fell on the bed, thinking about the cultivation and contact of various tools and the use of various tools since he went up the mountain, thinking about the experience of a few days, feeling a burst of novelty, maybe he fell asleep unconsciously when he was tired, and his mouth kept snoring and grinding his teeth.

The first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone from the window outside the house to the house, shining on all corners of the house, and at this time, Xia Mingfeng's body made a knocking sound, as if something was hitting in his body.

A layer of black gas emerged from Xia Mingfeng's body, and suddenly a blood light emerged from his body, blood light and black gas were entangled around each other, gradually the black gas became less and less, and the blood light gradually brightened, until finally there was no trace of black gas in the air.

And the blood light began to spin into a whirlpool, absorbing the surrounding aura, and finally with a bang, the whirlpool exploded, and the air in the room was filled with blood mist, scattered on Xia Mingfeng's body, penetrating from his clothes to all parts of his skin, and then from his skin to his body and disappearing.

At this time, Xia Mingfeng opened his eyes and woke up, let out a sigh, his nose moved, and he smelled a little blood in the room, and the clothes were still the brand-new sect robes, no trace of blood was found, and he felt a little puzzled, and after checking his body, he shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

When he took out the bronze mirror to look at the selection task, he found that only the task of planting Linggu was suitable for him to receive, Xia Mingfeng, who had never been out of the house, let alone planting Linggu, thought about it, and finally had to accept it helplessly
