Chapter 5: The Colorful Thunder King
The Water Moon Sect's method of testing the Painted Butterfly Gate is different. The green cloth curtain enclosed a three-acre area. On the left and right sides are small rooms separated by green cloth, and the doors are covered with curtains. In the middle is a ten-zhang square open space.
Three chairs were placed above the clearing, and three nuns in pale yellow shirts sat on them.
About 30 people who passed the primary election stood on both sides, and the woman in the yellow shirt on the left hand talked about the test. These selected cultivators are both male and female, and the oldest is twenty-three or four, and they have cultivated to the highest eighth level of qi cultivation. They all stood respectfully and listened.
"A piece of yellow paper, a pen, and ink cartridges are all placed on the bookcase in the green cloth curtain. You draw the butterflies that come to mind on the paper, and it doesn't matter if you're good at Danqing. This paper, pen, and ink are made of the magic of the door, which can reflect the thoughts in your heart. After speaking, the yellow-shirted nun waved her hand lightly.
Several doormen led the selected ones to the sides and sent them into a small room separated by a curtain, which had a bookcase and a stool. As the yellow-shirted nun said, there are paper, pens, and ink cartridges on the bookcase.
Raden sat down on the stool, opened the cartridge, and stared at the yellow paper in a daze. I can't let go of Yi Fu'an in my heart.
After a while, I suddenly heard a person outside shouting, "Come out." Raden was taken aback. Hurriedly took the pen and dipped it in ink, and hurriedly drew a few strokes on the yellow paper.
Luodian has been a good reader since he was a child, and he also has some skills in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I was distracted for a while, and there was no butterfly shadow in my heart. I had to scribble based on my feelings.
When I looked at the butterfly I had drawn, I wondered. I've never seen such a butterfly before, and I don't know how to change it. I wish I could color it.
Thinking about adding a few strokes, there is no place to start. Suddenly, the butterfly on the yellow paper moved and flew up. The ink butterfly actually has a colorful color, and the pattern and color on the butterfly are the same as Luodian thought. Raden was satisfied. I'm just worried that the yellow-shirted nun will ask for the name of the butterfly. I don't know how to answer.
Butterfly circles Raden twice, and Raden knows that he is going out. Standing up and walking out, Caidie followed, fluttering around Raden.
Out of the small room, I saw that the selected ones were coming one after another, and there was a butterfly next to each person. The white-clothed male cultivator of the Water Moon Sect came over and let these people stand on both sides. Anyone who draws butterflies knows that it is time to wait for the final result.
The three yellow-shirted female cultivators sitting on the chairs looked at the thirty or so people, and the female cultivator in the center, that is, the master of the "Painting Butterfly Gate" that everyone speculated, changed her expression.
The two people next to the door master were also stunned, and the three yellow-shirted female cultivators all looked at the colorful butterfly beside Luodian.
Luodian stood in the last seat on her left hand, and besides, she was only a second-level Qi cultivator, and no one paid attention to her. Now the three nuns sitting on the chair all looked at her, and they all turned their eyes to Raden.
For a while, Raden became the focus, and in front of everyone's eyes, Raden was a little overwhelmed and lowered his head.
The door master beckoned, and Raden saw the corner of his eye and hurriedly walked over. When he arrived in front of the three of them, he saluted: "Junior Luodian, I've seen my senior." ”
"You painted this butterfly?" said the yellow-shirted nun on the left-hand side looked at the butterfly carefully. The master of the door and the nun on the right hand were also staring at the butterfly.
"Back to the seniors, it was painted by the younger generations. ”
The man in the frosty mask suddenly smiled. "Senior Sister Jiang Dan, she didn't paint it, could it be that you can't paint it?"
The door master teased, and the junior sister asked casually. Jiang Dan also smiled.
"Luodian, what's the name of this butterfly?" asked the yellow-shirted nun on the right. At this time, the door master beckoned, and the colorful butterfly beside Luodian landed on her palm.
"Back to the words of the seniors, the younger generations don't know. Raden was a little nervous.
The three yellow-shirted nuns seemed to have known Raden's reply for a long time, and they didn't take it seriously at all, and they all looked carefully at the colorful butterfly that stopped in the palm of the door master. After a cup of tea, the door owner seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "It won't be wrong." The other two were beaming. The colorful butterfly in the door owner's hand disappeared suddenly.
"Raden has seen this butterfly?" this time it was the door master who asked him personally.
"Back to the seniors, the younger generations have not seen it. Raden, who had just relaxed a little, became nervous again. I subconsciously bit my lip.
The master didn't seem to hear Raden's answer, as if he was thinking about something.
The moment he came, the door owner's face was cold: "I haven't seen it, and I don't know the name." What did the painting do? ”
Raden shuddered in his heart, lowered his head, and retreated to his place.
"Jiang Dan, Ai Kun. This is undoubtedly the 'Colorful Thunder King', and it is rare for anyone who can paint this butterfly for a thousand years. It must be done seamlessly, and don't let the rest of the sect know the details. The master of the door said to the two people beside him with a divine recitation.
Knowing what the door master meant, Jiang Dan on the left looked at the person opposite Luodian Xiu. She was also a seventeen or eighteen-year-old nun. The door owner and Ai Su also pretended to follow. All eyes were on this man.
Just like Luo Tian just now, the door master beckoned, and the female cultivator walked in front of the three of them. The door owner, Ai Kun, and Jiang Dan first looked at the butterflies they were carrying. After asking a few words, he suddenly changed color. Knock the man back.
More than thirty people were silent, and they couldn't figure out the temper of the three yellow-shirted female cultivators.
Basically, I followed the routine of the two just now, and it took more than an hour to check the butterflies of those who wanted to enter the wall. The butterflies were also collected.
"This time, it is too common for Wangcheng to choose apprentices, and several selected people have average spiritual roots, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to make great achievements. The door owner sighed.
Jiang Dan and Ai Kun also showed disappointed expressions. He stood up, walked up to thirty people, and ordered five people to come out. Raden is naturally one of the five.
The disciples of the Water Moon Sect sent the unsuccessful out of the green cloth mantle. Some people who were waiting outside gathered around and couldn't help but comfort their friends. Li Wumang didn't see Luodian among the people who came out, and he felt a little comforted in his heart. Although he was not included in the Tuoyun Sect. Luodian and Yi Fu'an have entered the big sect, and the seven sons of Acura have a good place to go.
A large silver boat rose from the green cloth curtain, and the platform and green cloth curtain of the Water Moon Sect suddenly disappeared. The silver ship soared upwards and disappeared in an instant.
Halfway through the hour. The platforms of the major sects disappeared one after another, and the green jade platform of the Tuoyun Sect also disappeared.
Li Wumang, who wanted to go to Lindao Sect to take a look, also dispelled his thoughts, walked back alone, and arrived at the city gate with a spirit stone. Entered the city and returned to the inn.
"Seven people went out, one person came back, and the feeling of being cold and lonely was not for a long time. Li Wumang returned to the room, made himself a pot of tea, and sat down at the table.
"The seven sons of Acura have their own belongings, and it seems that they all have some foundations, as Arc Guang said. Why did I leave alone and not be favored by the sect?" Li Wumang has always thought that he is a person of great luck because of the "Phoenix Mercy". The defeat of the Tuoyun Sect this time was more or less a blow.
Sit on the bed and practice "Peeping Dao Decision", looking inwardly at the dantian. The "phoenix mercy remains" is rotating in the dantian, and the inscription of the heraldic phoenix is still sealed on the blood beads. Li Wumang doesn't have to worry that the phoenix essence blood will snatch the aura. After nine weeks of practice, I have collected the gong and see that it is already unitary time.
Twilight remembered Lu Silai, took out the Shengyuan wooden box, and put it on the table. Lu Si woke up. ”
"Childe, Lu Si never slept either. I don't know what's going on with Childe?" Lu Si asked.
Li Wumang said the matter of the selection of disciples by the major sects outside the city today. "Lu Si, who can wear the black satin robe of Tuoyun Sect?"
"The black satin robe can be worn by anyone, but there is a 'Lu Dull Sect' in the sect, and the immortal cultivators in the sect are all wearing black satin robes. Therefore, no one else in the Tuoyun Sect wears such clothes. ”
"Aren't you and the Sixth Brother from the 'Lu Dull Sect'?" asked Li Wumang.
"My sixth brother and I are both 'reckless factions', but this time we went to the Ten Thousand Demon Sea Region and didn't want to be recognized, because we didn't wear a black satin robe. Lu Si explained.
"Your name is Lu Si, and below you is the sixth brother, there must be a junior brother in the middle, right?"
"What Childe said is that there is also a junior brother named Hua Wu. The immortal cultivators of the 'Lu Dull School' are all sorted by number after their surname. There are twelve people in total. Lu Si replied.
When he knew that the fourth brother and the sixth brother were disciples of the Tuoyun Sect, Li Wumang suspected that Hua Wu had something to do with the two, and sure enough. I don't know whose apprentice Tingyue is.
"In this way, the 'Lu Dull Sect' must be very powerful in the Tuoyun Sect, and there are as many as twelve immortal cultivators in the Dan Period. "Li Wumang doesn't want to mention Hua Wu yet.
In Acura, Li Wumang has seen two people in the half-knotted Dan period, and he has scruples with Ma Kui, and Hua Wu's Jindan is half of it. I saw Lu Si and the sixth brother again in the Ten Thousand Demon Sea, and I didn't think that the knot period was rare.
I just heard Wu San say that the Tuoyun Sect is known as a million disciples, and it is said that there are hundreds of immortal cultivators in the Dan period. Li Wumang was impressed by the immortal cultivators in the Dan period.
"That's natural, 'Lu Dull School' is the name taken by outsiders, and it is called 'Foolish Stream' in the door, in order to avoid the name of Lu Dull Ancestor. Bluntness is foolishness. 'Foolish flow' is the meaning of inheriting the Lu Dull Ancestor exercises. "There was a pause at this point.
Lu Si's divine thought said again: "Lu Dull Ancestor's cultivation ranks second in the Tuoyun Sect, and he is already in the late stage of the merger. Maybe in three or five hundred years, you will be able to enter the realm of transforming gods. The first-ranked Lu Ancestor is a cultivator in the early stage of the transformation of the gods, and he has been in retreat for many years. In the sect, the ancestor is naturally respected. ”
Li Wumang smiled after hearing this: "That being the case, isn't the 'foolish stream' an example of being domineering and oppressing his peers." ”
"The dull old ancestor protects the shortcomings, and the disciples of the 'foolish stream' have a bad reputation in the Tuoyun Sect, but they don't dare to go out of line. Lu Si told the truth.
"There's one thing I've always wanted to ask you, how did you and your sixth brother get to the Ten Thousand Demon Sea to find the bad luck of the predecessors of the Howling Sea Ape. ”
"Young Master, the Lu Dull Ancestor wants to refine a magic weapon, and the disciples of the 'Foolish Stream' will naturally do their best. My sixth brother and I have nothing to worship, and I heard that on an island in the Ten Thousand Demon Sea, there is a thousand-pound 'Burning Sun Fire Iron'. The two of them invited each other to look for it. Lu Si's thoughts went back to a few months ago.
