Chapter 4 Mo Daojun Walks Early
Time is like flowing water, and it has been a year since Zhang Fan came to Lingyun Island in a blink of an eye. His cultivation had already recovered half a year ago, and he had even cultivated to the peak of his innate realm.
Early that morning, Zhang Fan got up early as usual and prepared to clean the stone steps and water the spiritual field. However, just as he was about to go out, a stream of slips fell straight at him, causing the broom in his hand to fall to the ground in fright, and his body suddenly sat on the threshold, making him uncomfortable.
The streamer fell, and a woman appeared, who was Narcissus. Without saying a word, she came to Zhang Fan and said, "Zhang Fan, go, the master has something to look for you." ”
"Really!" Zhang Fan said happily.
"Don't talk nonsense. Narcissus said coldly, and as he spoke, he pulled Zhang Fan onto the flying sword and turned into a streamer and walked up the mountain.
After a while, Zhang Fan and the two came to the Lingyun Fairy Cave Mansion.
"Fairy, are you really going to teach me to cultivate immortals?" Zhang Fan said in surprise as soon as he came to the cave. His body was eager to kneel in front of the Lingyun Fairy and kowtow nine times, and immediately bow to the master, but one hand was firmly grasped by the narcissus and could not move.
"You're not qualified enough!" said Lingyun Fairy with a shake of her head and coldly.
"This ......" Zhang Fan said hesitantly, but his handsome face froze.
"However, for the sake of your diligence in the past year, I can give you a chance to cultivate immortals. Lingyun Fairy said lightly.
"Thank you fairy, thank you fairy, fairy great kindness......" Zhang Fan thanked gratefully. His body trembled, and his face melted in an instant, red as the scorching sun.
"Don't be too happy!" said Fairy Lingyun coldly.
In an instant, Zhang Fan was silent like a stunned eggplant, looking at the changeable ice beauty in front of him in a daze. The look of surprise on his face froze completely.
"Last time, my Beiming sect lost a large number of Qi cultivation stage disciples in the Five Elements Secret Realm, and today the sect plans to recruit mortals with spiritual roots to enter the sect to cultivate and enrich the sect. I see that you are diligent and honest. I plan to send you to try, if you can pass the guò trial, then I will be a disciple of the Beiming Sect, and I will have the opportunity to cultivate immortals, if you can't ......" Lingyun Fairy said lightly. But she didn't say anything halfway through the sentence.
"What happens if you don't pass the trial?" Zhang Fan hurriedly asked. The Lingyun fairy was silent.
"You will die and die in the belly of a fish!" Narcissus said coldly.
"At this time, human life is like a mustard!" Zhang Fan couldn't help but say out.
"Hmph! I don't know anything! Who would pity those losers? Think about whether to go or not to go. Narcissus snorted coldly.
Although Zhang Fan was surprised in his heart, he was not afraid. Yan said: "Go, why don't you go?" Zhang Fan has already died a few times, why do you care about dying!"
The two women heard this. The ancient glacier-like face moved slightly, and the look of surprise was fleeting. It's a pity that Zhang Fan didn't see it.
Lingyun Fairy said lightly: "In this case, Narcissus, you take Zhang Fan to participate in the introductory trial." As for whether he lives or dies, it is up to him to decide. Narcissus said, "Yes." Master. With that, Zhang Fan walked out.
Zhang Fan was not surprised. Follow Narcissus out.
Lingyun Fairy looked at the empty cave and said slowly: "People in the world, those who are not afraid of death are dead. Unfortunately, no one heard her melancholy words.
Zhang Fan flew with Narcissus Edgeworth, left Lingyun Island, crossed the vast sea, passed through dozens of islands no less than Lingyun Island, and soon came to a wide island.
The two edgeworthies fell to the ground, and in front of them was a continuous mountain peak. Thousands of large ships docked on the beach not far away, and groups of restrained warriors hurriedly walked briskly to a crowded place below the mountain.
"Zhang Fan. In front of you is the registration office, and you go to the trial yourself. Narcissus glanced at the martial artists, and then at Zhang Fandao. Zhang Fan nodded and thanked him: "Thank you, fairy." The fairy will be sent in the future, and Zhang Fan will not hesitate to go to the soup. ”
Narcissus Leng blushed for a moment, then took out a jade pendant from the storage bag, handed it to Zhang Fan, and said, "Zhang Fan, this is the only piece of Beast Soul Talisman I have, which can withstand the full force of the ninth-layer cultivator of Qi cultivation." Don't leak it out if you take it, and don't use it until it's critical, otherwise you'll be in danger of your life. ”
Zhang Fan took the jade piece and looked at Narcissus in a daze, his heart was complicated, and he nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will pay attention." ”
Narcissus continued: "The people in the final level of the trial are all crazy, and if you don't pay attention to them, they will add up to each other, and even if you encounter anyone in trouble, you can't save them, you know?"
Although Zhang Fan felt uncomfortable, he still nodded.
Narcissus said again: "If you are injured, you must hide first, you would rather not cultivate immortals, but also save your life, you know?" Zhang Fan was puzzled in his heart, but still nodded.
Narcissus grabbed Zhang Fan tightly and said: "You have to remember everything I say, otherwise we will be passers-by from now on." Zhang Fan nodded and said solemnly: "Fairy rest assured, if Zhang Fan does not succeed in joining the Beiming faction, he will not have the face to see the fairy." ”
"Go ahead!" Narcissus said lightly. Zhang Fan nodded, and then left quickly.
Narcissus looked at the emaciated white shadow in the distance, and said coldly: "If you can't come out, I, Narcissus, will avenge you even if I die!" Unfortunately, Zhang Fan had already gone away at this time.
Zhang Fan came to the crowd and saw a large group of people crowded and pushing and looking ahead, eager to try, and noisy.
In front of the crowd, an old man shouted: "This time, my Beiming faction accepts apprentices, and the beginners need to pass the three levels of heaven, earth and man, and those who pass the pass can be my Beiming sect disciples." ”
The crowd fell silent when they heard this. The old man continued: "This first level tests everyone's perseverance, and those who can complete the ten thousand stone levels before dark can pass the first level." Now there are more than 100,000 disciples who have participated in the selection of the initiation of this sect, and for the sake of fairness to everyone, from front to back, one group of every 1,000 people will go up the mountain in turn. Now, the test begins!"
As soon as the old man's words fell, everyone rushed up desperately like a swarm, scrambling one by one, pushing forward and howling and rushing up the mountain.
Zhang Fan did not hesitate and stepped forward quickly, but he did not run stupidly and desperately, but ran at a constant speed. He has cleaned the stone steps, knows the truth in this, climbing the ten thousand stone steps seems simple, but how many people can persist to the end.
"Rush, rush, rush, rush......" The people behind Zhang Fan quickly overtook him one by one and rushed forward.
Zhang Fan said secretly: "Crazy, crazy!" said that his pace unconsciously sped up a little.
He climbed all the way up at a constant pace. There is no hurry, and his face is calm.
Before you know it, you have climbed hundreds of stone steps.
"Ah, not good. I can't run. Someone shouted in front of him. But the crowd didn't care and continued to climb.
"Ah, I can't do it either. It wasn't long before another shout was made.
Zhang Fan was slightly shocked in his heart, and when he saw that the people in front of him all had innate late stage cultivation, their qi was not weak, and they only ran less than a tenth of the time and didn't move, which was basically impossible. He looked at the stone steps behind him again. found that the people behind him had disappeared at some point, and he became the last one, but he did not accelerate for the time being.
"Is this stone path weird?" Zhang Fan said secretly. He walked at a constant speed. While silently sensing it, he noticed that there was a strange gravitational attraction between the stone path and his feet, and every time he took a step up, the stone steps became heavier.
"I see. I'll just say how can the selection of a sect be so easy. It turned out that they had already set up barricades on the road. Zhang Fan said secretly.
"Looks like I'm going to have to adjust my plans. If you waste time below, you won't be able to reach the top of the mountain before dark, even if you have the strength to get there. Those lunatics seem to have known the inside story a long time ago, which is why they were so unscrupulous in the beginning. Zhang Fan thought silently.
With a slight effort, his steps couldn't help but be a little brisker, and his speed of climbing the stone steps doubled.
Zhang Fan walked briskly all the way, and the number of people wailing on the stone steps behind him gradually increased.
"Hey, this stone path is so weird. I ran and ran, and my steps were unexpectedly weak. Ay. It seems that I'm not the material for cultivating immortals, so I'd better go home to the local master. A fat boy sighed.
"I can't give up yet, I can't run for a while, but I can rest for a while, I can run again, maybe I can reach the top of the mountain before dark. Someone got lucky.
"No matter, although tired is a little tired, let's hold on a little longer. Someone hesitated.
Zhang Fan walked silently all the way, ignoring the sighing warriors around him, and gradually, one by one the warriors were surpassed by him, and the first-level stone level was thrown under his feet.
Before he knew it, he had climbed to the 5,000th level, and beads of sweat appeared on Junxiu's face. The surrounding warriors gasped and staggered up.
"Rest for a while and then walk, I really can't walk. Someone sat down on the ground with a "snap".
"Let's hold on for a while and then rest. "Someone walked slowly, cheering himself up.
Zhang Fan didn't care about the warriors who were sitting or lying down, or sighing and sighing, he still moved forward.
He moved his breath slightly, his pace quickened a minute, and then he rushed straight up like a white wild horse.
"Hey, it's all my fault, how did I use up my internal breath in advance. Zhang Fan walked all the way, and someone shouted.
"Hey, brother, what are you doing so hard? We're almost up to level 7,000, and it's only noon, what are we busy with? Let's rest for a while. Someone discouraged.
"What a fool, don't run in front, only think about running when you get here, I see how you go up at the end. Someone said disdainfully.
Zhang Fan continued to move forward, ignoring the cynicism of everyone, and not caring about the compliments and envy of others.
"It's a good thing I didn't use the inner breath in the first place, otherwise I might have had to slow down a few steps here. Zhang Fan said happily. He thought about it and quickened his pace again and continued on his way.
The surrounding warriors staggered up the stairs one by one, some sighed, some were silent, but no one stopped.
"It's already eight thousand. Zhang Fan thought to himself as he continued to move forward.
The warriors around him were gradually left behind, but he was not happy about this and continued to move forward.
"Nine thousand. Zhang Fan thought silently. There are many fewer warriors around him, sweating like rain one by one, dancing their arms forward.
He didn't care about looking at the crowd and kept going.
"Hmm...... It tripled the gravity all at once. Zhang Fan was secretly surprised, no wonder those people looked sweaty, but he still walked forward quickly.
Zhang Fan leaped quickly, but when he saw that the martial artists around him didn't seem to be slower than him, he was horrified in his heart, and regardless of it, his pace sped up a few points.
The more Zhang Fan walked up, he found that the martial artists on the road were running harder, and none of them were a point slower than him, so he accelerated his pace again.
Seven hundred, six hundred...... 400 level, 300 level......
Zhang Fan thought silently, his steps quickened again and again, sweat soaked his clothes, but he didn't dare to stop, the people in front of him ran faster than him.
Zhang Fan gasped and continued to move forward, only to hear the "dong dong" footsteps of everyone moving forward, knocking on Zhang Fan's heart one after another, and he was a little faster.
"Level 100!" Zhang Fan said silently in his heart.
"Knock knock knock......" The footsteps became more urgent. The wheezing of the crowd was also more pronounced, dripping sweat soaked the stone path, but no one stopped or slipped, they desperately moved forward.
Zhang Fan gritted his teeth and sped up a few points. He climbed up at a rapid pace, not daring to stop.
"It's only twenty steps!" Zhang Fan quickened his pace again.
"Whew...... Call...... ...... whew, the wheezing of the crowd became heavier. Zhang Fan tried his best to move forward.
"Quick...... Fast...... Come ......" A fierce shout echoed in Zhang Fan's ears. Zhang Fan was in a hurry, roared angrily in his heart, and rushed out.
"Ninety-eight!"
A white shadow rolled down to the platform.
"Ninety-nine!"
"One hundred! Close the ladder!" an old man said coldly.
"It's okay!" Zhang Fan secretly congratulated, but as soon as he stood up, he saw a large group of men and women looking at him playfully, and when he looked back, he saw that the stone steps had long disappeared, and a haggard girl wrapped in wet clothes behind him looked at him fiercely, as if she wanted to swallow herself alive.
Zhang Fan shook his head, happy but helpless in his heart.
The old man glanced at everyone and snorted coldly, "You guys will rest here tonight and participate in the second level early tomorrow morning." After saying that, he turned into a streamer and flew away. (To be continued......)
