Chapter 498
The City Lord's Mansion is located in the central area of ​​Yuanyang City. It is located in the most prosperous area and is heavily guarded. The tall palace attic is divided into several areas.

The Zongmen Hall is located on the east side of the city lord's mansion. Because it involves sect business, the streets around it are particularly lively. The headquarters of Wanbao Daochang and Yaowangdian are not far from here.

Yan Xu had no time to pay attention to him, and stepped into the Zongmen Hall through the hustle and bustle.

In addition to the guards, several formations circulated in the hall, and the soundproof ban blocked the noisy noise from the door. As soon as Yan Xu stepped into the hall, he immediately calmed down.

The entire hall is in the shape of a round arch, and in the middle stands an ice-blue statue of a mythical beast with teeth and claws.

This mythical beast has the body of a lion, the head of a dragon, and a horseshoe, with a pair of horns on its forehead. The horns and scales are fully visible, and it is as lifelike as a living thing.

Yan Xu calmed down and closed his eyes slightly, the phantom disappeared without a trace, and the statue of the beast stood quietly in the center of the hall without moving.

What happened just now is actually the illusion formed by the coercion of the statue in front of him in the sea of ​​consciousness. It seems like a long time, but in fact, only a breath of time has passed, and everything around Yan Xu is clear again.

"It's such a strong coercion that I can't breathe."

The three monks who walked together stepped into the Zongmen Hall behind Yan Xu, and one of them gasped in cold sweat. It took him five breaths longer to recover his consciousness than Yan Xu.

And the other companion beside him hadn't come back to his senses, he just stood there with a dazed gaze, and was patted on the shoulder several times before he came back to his senses.

"What happened just now? My consciousness seems to be imprisoned."

"Look at how promising you are, you can't even bear the coercion of the ice and fire unicorn statue, don't say I know you." said the middle-aged man in gray robe who was the leader of the three.

"Is this the statue of the Ice Fire Qilin? Just now it came back to life and almost swallowed me up." The companion sighed with lingering fear.

"You've learned a lot. There are statues of ice and fire unicorns in each of the eighteen cities of Daxia, which contain a ray of distraction to guard the country's luck. Therefore, the demon kings of the Southern Sky Demon Territory dare not approach. Once Xiaoxiao approaches, directly Suppressed." The gray-robed cultivator smugly showed off to his companion.

Compared with the unbearable situation of the two, the gray-robed middle-aged monk is much more unrestrained. This is not the first time he has come here, and he has been quite familiar with the coercion of the ice and fire unicorn statue since he has often run to the Zongmen Hall.

But even so, it took him two full breaths to wake up, half a beat slower than Yan Xu.

The three of them passed by Yan Xu. When the middle-aged monk in the gray robe passed by, he took another look at Yan Xu and said secretly: "This man is actually a breath faster than me. It seems that he often comes to the Zongmen Hall."

Yan Xu heard the conversation of the three, stroked his chin and carefully looked at the statue of the ice and fire unicorn.

Above the arched main hall of the Zongmen Hall, the hollowed-out roof leads directly to the sky, and the dazzling sunlight shines on the scales of the Ice and Fire Qilin, adding a bit of majesty to it.

In the dark, faint strands of purple luck surround the ice-fire unicorn statue, ascending into the sky in a spiral shape and disappearing into the void.

The purple luck mixed with dots of golden light disappeared into the vast sky together.

"The guardian animal of the Great Xia Dynasty is really amazing. It guards the luck of all directions in Central Continent. Its statue alone has such power. I don't know what level its deity has reached." Yan Xu sighed sincerely.

Ice and fire unicorn, ranked fifth in the list of ancient strange beasts. Although it is not the top existence in terms of blood, it is already quite terrifying, and judging by its posture, it is definitely at its peak.

The list of ancient alien beasts is only to select the potential of blood and talent, as for the ultimate strength, it depends on the realm of cultivation.

That's why, the King of Tuntian Mouse ranked No. 16 on the list of ancient alien beasts and was seriously injured by the Black Wind Demon King.

If an ordinary monster with bloodlines and magical powers had such a huge disparity in strength, it would definitely be killed on the spot, how could it escape half of its life.

The original ice-blue mythical animal statue suddenly turned crimson red, as if it was burnt red by fire. The ice-fire unicorn has two forms of ice and fire, and the statue also retains this characteristic.

Yan Xu withdrew his thoughts and walked straight to the service counter inside the main hall.

"Excuse me, what business do you want to do?" Yan Xu was greeted by a young and beautiful waitress with a sweet and moving voice.

"I'm here for the first time, and I'm here for sect certification." Li Yang had prepared the things needed for him, and Yan Xu handed them over.

"Your Excellency, you have just established a sect, right? I don't know how many sects you have certified?" The waitress asked softly after counting the things Yan Xu handed over.

"Earth-level one-star sect." Yan Xu replied.

The waitress was slightly taken aback, and immediately recovered her expression and said: "This is beyond my authority, please wait a moment, I will ask the deputy hall master for instructions."

The female waitress apologized, and hurriedly left the hall to ask the deputy hall master for instructions.

Soon, the waitress appeared again and led Yan Xu into a room in the inner hall.

The room is large, spacious and bright, and the style is the same as that of the main hall outside. There is also a statue of ice and fire unicorn placed on the table. Although there is no coercion, the workmanship is very fine.

A middle-aged monk in a blue robe with a peaceful appearance was sitting behind the desk, busy processing a document.

"Wait for me for a moment first." The middle-aged monk glanced at Yan Xu, and wrote quickly to finish processing the official document at hand.

Yan Xu nodded, indicating that he was not in a hurry.

After half a stick of incense, the middle-aged monk finished processing the official documents and put them aside. Then he looked at Yan Xu carefully, and then introduced himself: "I am Jin Zonghuan, the deputy head of the Zongmen Hall, and you want to certify the first-rank sect?"

"That's right, I'm Yan Xu, head of Haotian Sect, and I'm here specially for this purpose." Yan Xu replied bluntly.

Jin Zonghuan was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Earth rank sect, even if it is only a one-star rank, is completely different from Xuan rank sect, not to mention compared with Huang rank sect. It has already involved the luck of a country, Do you know?"

Yan Xu nodded. He had done his homework before coming and understood the Great Xia Dynasty's attitude towards the sect.

The imperial state in the cultivation world and the mortal country seem to have similar structures, but they are actually very different. Apart from the differences between monks and mortals, the most important thing is that they are born by luck.

The luck of a city in the Great Xia Dynasty can be seen in dots of golden luck, and golden luck is the top level of luck. I don't know how much purple luck it takes to gather such a little bit.

When in Beixingzhou, which country did not pay attention to luck, even the evil spirits outside the sky conspired in Beixingzhou to weaken the human race through luck.

The process of sect certification is actually to tie the sect and the luck of the country together.

The country recognizes the sect status of the sect, so that the luck of the sect will not conflict with the fate of the country, and at the same time, the luck of the sect will also enhance the luck of the country.

Conversely, if the luck of a sect drops sharply, especially the decline of the luck of the famous sect, it will definitely affect the luck of the country.

Yan Xu answered a few questions about luck in a regular manner, and Jin Zonghuan nodded repeatedly.

"Since you are clear, then I don't need to say more. Which method do you plan to use for certification?" Jin Zonghuan handed Yan Xu a booklet, which listed the conditions of the two methods in detail.

The first way is to send a team of envoys from the Zongmen Hall to consider the strength of the sect on the ground, including the cultivation of the disciples, the foundation of the mountain gate, mineral resources, etc., each of which has specific requirements.

Tianhaozong has already been evaluated by the master system, and the strength of the first-star sect is beyond doubt, but Yan Xu can't choose the first way.

Because, the main foundation of Tianhaozong is all in Wanxu Mountain, and the only one that can be inspected by outsiders is the newly established outer sect, whose superficial strength cannot meet the standard.

"I choose the second option, entering the Nantian Demon Realm to hunt and kill rare ninth-level monsters." Yan Xu said clearly.

"Are you sure you choose the second option? Don't worry, the results of the sect's investigation will never be spread. Our Zongmen Hall has always handled things fairly." Jin Zonghuan misunderstood Yan Xu's meaning.

Yan Xu smiled and said, "I'm sure I'll choose the second one."

If it was just a general secret, he believed that the Zongmen Hall would enforce the law impartially, but when it came to the tomb of the Immortal Emperor, Yan Xu didn't think the Zongmen Hall could still sit still, and he was afraid that the core figures of the current dynasty would come soon.

In that case, Tianhaozong would basically be finished.

"In normal times, I wouldn't bother with such nosy matters. Hunting and killing rare level ninth-level monsters will cost some money, but it should be affordable by the ground-level one-star sect. But the situation is different now. The border of the Southern Sky Demon Realm is more than one or two The Demon King sits in command, you enter the Nantian Demon Realm to hunt down the ninth-level monsters, isn’t it undoubtedly seeking death?”

Jin Zonghuan said earnestly, with a very sincere tone but a kind reminder.

Yan Xu understood the other party's good intentions, but he had to make a foray into the Southern Heaven Demon Territory, even if it wasn't for sect certification, he had to find an antidote for Tuntian Shuwang.

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Jin, but I've made up my mind, please fulfill it." Yan Xu said loudly.
