Chapter 297: Hard to Find
"The three Qi Refining 11th level demon cultivators, our disciples were outnumbered and weak, and were really no match for them. We could only hide in a remote village for a while, and only came back after the demon cultivators left." Shi Yue said calmly.
On the way back, Shi Yue thought about this problem. After all, he had been missing for more than ten days, and it was hard to justify it without a suitable reason.
It was true that he was hunted by demon cultivators, but they were not hunted by three Qi Refining 11th level cultivators, but by Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. However, he could not say it out. Once he said that he was hunted by Foundation Establishment stage demon cultivators, it might expose the secret of Haoyue Flying Boat.
You know, some Foundation Establishment stage disciples may not have a flying spiritual weapon, let alone Qi Refining stage disciples.
"So that's the case. I heard from Junior Brother Chen that you are proficient in the art of talismans? Is this true?" Chen Xiangdong's eyes flashed, his tone changed, and he asked in a deep voice.
"I only know the basics. Maybe I am proficient in talisman making for people like Senior Sister Chen who don't know how to make talismans, but compared with other talisman makers, I only know the basics." Shi Yue said with a stiff face.
"I believe you also know that our sect and the other four sects want to accept that person with a natural spiritual root as their disciple, but this boy is very interested in the art of talismans and has said that he wants to worship in a sect that is proficient in the art of talismans. Therefore, our five sects will hold a talisman making competition, and each will send a Qi training stage disciple to participate. Among our Qi training stage disciples this time, there are very few who have studied the art of talismans. If I send you to represent our sect in the talisman making competition, do you have the confidence to win the first place?" Chen Xiangdong's face condensed and asked in a deep voice.
"This... I dare not say for sure. If Uncle Chen sends a disciple to participate, I will definitely do my best." Shi Yue pondered for a moment and said seriously.
How could he dare to guarantee such a thing? If he failed to win the first place, Chen Xiangdong would put a hat on him, and it would be difficult for Shi Yue to get rid of it. If it was serious, he might be held accountable.
"Try your best? How sure are you to win the first place?" Chen Xiangdong raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.
"I haven't competed with the talisman makers of the other four sects, so I don't know how sure I am." Shi Yue thought for a moment and said so.
Chen Xiangdong clearly wanted Shi Yue to issue a military order, but Shi Yue was not so stupid. He kept vague and didn't give Chen Xiangdong any handle.
"Brother Chen, we don't have many Qi Refining disciples. There are only three disciples who know how to make talismans, including Shi Yue. Let them compete, and the winner will represent our sect to participate in the competition!" Liu Rong on the side suggested with a flash of his eyes.
"Okay! Then let the three of them compete to see who can draw the most fireball talismans within half an hour, and represent our sect in the competition three days later." Chen Xiangdong thought for a moment and nodded.
Shi Yue heard this, hesitated for a moment, and said with a stiff upper lip: "In reply to Uncle Chen and Uncle Liu, I have an unwelcome request, and I hope you two uncles can agree."
"Unwelcome request? Tell me! What request?" Chen Xiangdong frowned and asked lightly.
"I have been traveling for a few days and I am a little tired. I wonder if you can let me rest for a day and compete again tomorrow." Shi Yue said carefully.
"Okay! Tomorrow is tomorrow. The talisman-making competition will be held here at 7:00 tomorrow. You must not be late." Chen Xiangdong thought about it and agreed.
"Oh, Uncle Chen, Uncle Liu, when I was hiding from the demon cultivators, I met a boy with spiritual roots. I thought that the sect was recruiting disciples, so I brought him back. I wonder if he can join the sect?" Shi Yue thought of Li Yan and asked.
"How is his spiritual root aptitude? If it's too bad, the sect won't accept him." Liu Rong said with a frown.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry. I have tested him with the spirit measuring ruler. He has three spiritual roots and his aptitude is average, not bad." Shi Yue replied truthfully.
"How old is he? If he is over ten, he must undergo routine assessment."
"He is eleven years old, but he has not practiced yet. He will definitely not pass the assessment. I wonder if I can recommend him?"
"According to the rules, inner disciples can recommend one person to join the sect. If you have not recommended other cultivators, you can bring this person back to our sect. However, according to the rules, our sect will only give this person an identity. We will not be responsible for all his expenses. He has to earn them by himself or you can provide them." Chen Xiangdong thought for a while and said slowly.
"Disciple understands. I recommend him to join the sect just to thank him for helping me when I was avoiding the demon cultivators." Shi Yue nodded, looking normal.
"It's up to you! Go back and have a good rest. Come here to compete at 7:00 tomorrow. Don't be late." Chen Xiangdong waved his hand, signaling Shi Yue to leave.
Shi Yue responded and turned away.
"If we had known there would be such a competition, we would have brought out all the Qi Refining disciples who are proficient in making talismans." Liu Rong sighed as he watched Shi Yue's departing back.
Chen Xiangdong shook his head and chuckled, saying, "It's hard to predict what will happen in the world. To be honest, Luo Fuhai's family has always had a good relationship with the Ancient Sword Sect. He should have joined the Ancient Sword Sect, but who knew that he suddenly released news that he was interested in joining other sects. Hehe, this is a demon with a natural spiritual root. Not long ago, one appeared in the Wind and Fire Sect, and now another one has appeared. I remember that the last time such a demon appeared was thousands of years ago. That person was accepted by the Ancient Sword Sect and carefully trained. He eventually became a great monk and protected the Ancient Sword Sect for a thousand years. This laid the foundation for the Ancient Sword Sect to be ranked as the first sect in the Tang Dynasty."
"Yes! It stands to reason that such a genius is hard to find in a thousand years. This time, two of them appeared at the same time. It's really amazing. This kind of genius is related to the rise and fall of the sect. Any sect is scrambling to accept it. I don't know what unfair treatment Luo Fuhai encountered. He actually didn't follow the instructions of his family to join the Ancient Sword Sect." Liu Rong nodded and said curiously.
"Who cares! The disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect have always only practiced swordsmanship and rarely know other skills. This boy is very likely to join one of our four sects. I guess the Jindan-stage cultivators in the Ancient Sword Sect who are responsible for recruiting disciples must be furious! The evildoer with a natural spiritual root should have joined their Ancient Sword Sect. Now, whichever sect's representative wins, this boy will join that sect." Chen Xiangdong said jokingly.
······
At the Ancient Sword Sect's garrison, Liu He knelt in a wide hall with a face full of regret.
In front of him sat a tall middle-aged man and a beautiful middle-aged woman with a peach-like face.
"Brother Chen, Junior Brother Liu has been kneeling for a day and a night. I think we should let him get up! There is no need to keep kneeling." The beautiful middle-aged woman glanced at Liu He and advised him reluctantly.
