Originally, Zhang Yan didn't know how the assessment of the ancient sword sect of the Dao was carried out, but now when he heard someone mention what the assessment was about refining the Dao of the Gods, he hesitated for a moment and decided to go up and ask the thin young man about it, so that he could better deal with it, and he didn't have to wait until tomorrow to be caught off guard.

Zhang Yan walked through the customers coming and going in the pharmacy, and in a few steps, he came to the side of the thin young man and the burly young man, bowed slightly, and said slowly: "Two Taoist friends, take the liberty to disturb me, I have just arrived in the next place, and I don't know anything about the assessment of the ancient sword sect's apprentices, and I just heard the two Daoist brothers mention what kind of refining gods, I don't know if I can tell the younger brother one or two?"

"Daoyou is serious, this assessment of refining the Dao of God, the merchants in this city, all know it in detail, it seems that Daoyou did not inquire carefully, this is also normal, Daoyou should also be a casual cultivator, just arrived, this inquiry also has a doorway. It was the thin young man who spoke, soft-spoken, elegant and unfazed.

The burly young man saw that his words were interrupted, and he was only slightly stunned for a moment, and when he heard that the swarthy young man in the old clothes and carrying a broken umbrella who came up before him also asked the same thing as himself, he simply crossed his arms in front of his chest and stood aside to listen.

Zhang Yan knew that he was only hesitant and anxious just now, too presumptuous, interrupted the conversation between the two, and apologized slightly to the big man, after hearing the words of the thin young man, his heart suddenly changed, no wonder the old man of Baoyun Pavilion yesterday was reluctant to say to himself, not because of the problem of the spirit stone, that is, he wanted to make a stunned young man like himself suffer, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

"It's really a casual cultivator in the next place, and I don't know what I'm doing, so I took the liberty to inquire, I don't know what is the mystery and power of refining the Divine Dao?"

"The Divine Refining Dao is in the depths of this Xuyun Valley, it is in the Xuyunfeng Canyon, from the beginning to the end, about a thousand zhang away, don't look at this canyon is not long, but there is an ancient powerful composite formation shocking array there, which has the effect of refining the heart and strengthening the soul of the monk, but the consumption is very large, if there is no strong perseverance or the treasure to resist, it is not easy to go through the whole process. The thin young man didn't seem to be answering Zhang Yan's question, but explaining to the two of them, and said with a chuckle.

"I see, in Xia Zhang Yan, thank you Brother Dao for solving your doubts this time!" Hearing this, Zhang Yan's heart was full of surprise, and he was also relieved about the assessment, for him who had condensed his divine sense, this refining of the Divine Dao was no longer difficult for him.

After speaking, Zhang Yan didn't stay long, the elixir was also purchased enough, and now that he has heard about the general assessment, he should go back and make all preparations, even if he has the advantage of divine sense, he can't take it lightly, and he should go all out to face everything wholeheartedly.

Just as Zhang Yan said goodbye to the two of them, and just stepped out of the pharmacy, he was stopped by another slightly hoarse voice.

"This fellow Daoist, please stay for a step or two!"

Zhang Yan stopped, turned around and saw a slender young man in a white robe stopped by him, followed by two beautiful girls, at a glance, very beautiful and refined.

Slightly stunned, he didn't know what the purpose of this person was to stop him, but he also happened to see the thin young man and the giant axe man who were still in the pharmacy, glanced at each other, and hurriedly walked out with a surprised look on his face.

"This fellow Daoist, I don't know what happened to Lu Dao's call?" After being slightly stunned, Zhang Yan slowly asked.

The two girls behind the young man in the white robe also looked puzzled, unable to understand why the young man stopped the swarthy young man in front of him whose cultivation was only at the seventh level of qi refining.

"In Xia Li Qian, this is my distant cousin Rong Chengxin. Li Qian pointed to a girl in white palace clothes, smiled at Zhang Yan and said, "As for this friend who is in my lower cousin, Shangguan Xiang." ”

Rong Chengxin, who was dressed in a white palace dress, looked beautiful and quiet, an elegant Wanfu, and slightly saluted Zhang Yan.

"In Xia Shangguan Xiang, what is your name, boy?" Shangguan Xiang was dressed in red, and the red belt outlined her newly developed figure, but it was also convex and backward, which was eye-catching, and the whole person revealed a brutal and pungent.

"Uh...... In Xia Zhang Yan, the two girls are polite!" It was the first time that Zhang Yan had contact with a female monk at such a close distance, and it was the two who were so purple that they were not inferior to Xiao Tian'er, but he was only slightly embarrassed, his eyes were not wavering, and he turned to Li Qian, "Li Daoyou, I don't know what it is?"

Zhang Yan was a little inexplicable, he and the few people in front of him had never met, let alone knew each other.

"That's the case, several of us are from scattered cultivation, tomorrow the assessment of the ancient sword gate is about to begin, just a little observation, found that the Taoist friend seems to be also a loose cultivation, so I took the liberty to call the Taoist friend, mainly to ask the Taoist friend, if you are willing to join us, to tomorrow's assessment, encounter danger, there are many people, and there are many to take care of, and the danger will be one point less. Li Qian saw that Zhang Yan was slightly embarrassed in front of the two girls, so in order not to be more embarrassed, he hurriedly explained.

"Oh, isn't the assessment of the Ancient Sword Sect just refining the Divine Dao, if you can't pass the assessment, it will take your mind at most, and you should have no worries about your life, right?" Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, and said in confusion.

"This ...... Luo Daoyou, didn't you make it clear to Zhang Daoyou about all the assessments?" Li Qian suddenly turned around and asked the thin young man who came out of the pharmacy.

"Ahem, in Xia Luoda, I wanted to say all the assessment content just now, but seeing that Zhang Daoyou seemed to be in a hurry to leave, I couldn't finish it......" Luoda blushed slightly and apologized slightly to Zhang Yan.

"Hehe, I see, since that's the case, I'll finish this assessment at one time, in fact, this assessment is the same as before, on the day of the opening of the Divine Dao, the elders of the Ancient Sword Gate will wait at the valley mouth, and the monks who want to participate in the assessment must be registered and registered, and the bone age shall not exceed thirty, and those who pass the assessment will generally be included in the door, as for whether it is a registered disciple or an outer disciple or an inner disciple, it depends on the individual's creation. ”

Li Qian slowly spoke, pondered for a long time, and continued: "However, this Divine Dao refining is only the assessment of the first level, and the second level, according to some seniors, is a secret realm, called the Valley of Troubled Water, also known as the Netherworld, which is full of elixirs, and there are more treasures left by ancient monks, but it is also full of dangers, dangerous places and countless demon beasts.

"But this is not the most dangerous, the most dangerous is the monks who participated in the assessment, because this chaotic water valley, there are a total of six entrances, which will be opened every fifty years, and the six entrances, except for the Xu family under the power of the ancient sword gate, control here, the other five are in the Jianxia Gate, the Ethereal Palace, the Corpse Refining Gate, The Xuanfeng Sect and the White Bone Sect are within the scope of their power, so these six sects are all holding a large-scale apprenticeship event at the same time every fifty years, with this chaotic water valley as the assessment, the monks of each assessment, in order to be able to get a better status and resources after entering the sect, they can't help but want to compete for more elixirs and treasures, therefore, the cruel fight in the assessment is absolutely inevitable. ”

After listening to Li Qian's introduction, Zhang Qian was stunned for a moment, his heart tightened, and at this moment he understood that the assessment was not as simple as he thought before, he frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Can you ask Li Qian, Daoyou, in the assessment of previous years, what is the survival rate of monks entering it?"

Li Qian frowned slightly, hesitated, took a deep breath and said: "At most, forty percent, so I just took the liberty to invite Daoist friends to join us, if we enter it, a few of us will collect enough elixir, advance and retreat together, and then find a safe place, wait for the end of the secret realm time, and the survival rate will also be greatly improved." ”

"Plus Daoyou, and the ...... invited by Luo Daoyou Zeng Daoyou. Li Qian turned around and pointed at the burly young man, who seemed to be seeing it for the first time, and thought for a while before remembering the burly young man's surname.

"I was careless, I forgot to introduce!" Luo Da patted his head at this time, turned to point to the burly man beside him, and said, " Li Daoyou, this is the Zeng Daoyou I mentioned before, my childhood hair small, iron buddy, Zeng Yuexiong, when we were there at the same time a drought and locust plague, all the crops were not harvested, plus a large number of locusts transit, not to mention the crops in the field, even the grass and the leaves on the mountain, were destroyed beyond recognition, and then the disaster intensified, suddenly thousands of miles of red land, hungry prisoners, Xiaoxiong and I were fortunate to survive, but scattered, and now it is not easy to get together again. ”

"Now Xiaoxiong is also willing to join us. ”

After Luo Da finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.

"In Xia Zeng Yuexiong, I have seen you!" Zeng Yuexiong looked like a tiger's back, with two arms and green muscles, and when he spoke, the urn was as loud as a bell.

"This is very good, we will have one more success in this assessment, I wonder if Zhang Daoyou is willing to join us?" Li Qian's face was overjoyed, and he turned to Zhang Yan and asked.

"In this way, Li Daoyou, and everyone, let me go back and think about it for one night, at this time tomorrow, I want to see you here, and give you an answer, I don't know how?" Zhang Yan groaned for a while, and finally replied.

"Why not, Daoist friends go back and think about it, after all, there are more people and more people, and there is more safety!" Li Qian was not surprised by Zhang Yan's caution, but took it for granted.

"Then I'll take my leave first, and I'll see you here tomorrow. ”

Zhang Yan said goodbye to a few people and left with a heavy heart.

"Brother Li, this swarthy kid is young, and he is only at the seventh level of Qi refining, isn't it a burden to invite him to join the gang?" Shangguan Xiang couldn't help but ask in confusion when he saw Zhang Yan leaving.

"That little guy who is not a little thin is only at the seventh level of the Qi refining stage, how can I not see his cultivation?" Zeng Yuexiong, who had never said a few words before and after, was puzzled at this time.

"Oh, it seems that the other party really has this treasure or technique to hide the aura. But it's not a burden, I think since Li Daoyou invited him to join the gang, I think you also have your own plans. Loda shook her head at this time and said hesitantly.

"Hehe, I didn't think much about it, I just suddenly felt that I should invite him to join the gang, but if it was really a burden, we were separated, and when it came to the crisis, it was one more shield. Li Qian's brows furrowed, and he suddenly sneered, "Brother Li is not ruthless, but cultivating the immortal realm, the weak eat the strong, and besides, we are all loose cultivators, we must learn to be flexible, you have to remember." ”

Zhang Yan bought a slightly better Dan furnace and alchemy charcoal fire in Fang City, and then hurriedly returned to the room of the inn, his face extremely ugly.

"Forty percent survival rate?" Zhang Yan sat cross-legged at the head of the bed, thinking of the words of the young man just now, he already had a sense of retreat in his heart, this ancient sword sect's assessment was simply a joke with his life.

"Whether or not to participate in the assessment, or just give up and leave, and worship other sects, but if this is the case, I don't know how much time it will take, and other small sects, entering it, in addition to being a helper for people to collect resources, it is difficult to get good exercises and good cultivation resources, which is also the reason why so many scattered cultivators rush to participate in the assessment of the ancient sword sect. ”

Zhang Yan's brows were tightly locked, his face was hesitant, and his eyes looked out of the window, dazed.
