Infinite Lucky Emperor
Chapter 217 Newcomer (1)
"Cheng Huaiqian" was very excited in his tone and demeanor, as if he had already seen the bright future where he stepped into the fairy road and skyrocketed.
It's just that Cheng Huaiqian should not know the information about these indigenous worlds.
Xia Ruize looked at his lover's face and made such an expression, but felt hot eyes, threw the Guyuan Pill back in his hand, and refused in a cold tone:
"I don't want to! I don't dare to be brothers with Mr. Cheng again. Mr. Cheng stays away from me. Don't push me down the mountain again, it's a good deed."
After speaking, he left without looking back.
"Cheng Huaiqian" in the back looked hard, and with a flick of his hand, a few drops of blood stained on his hand were thrown onto Xia Ruize.
Xia Ruize "saw" this scene, but did not react immediately. He also wanted to see what else this person could do.
After walking alone for more than ten minutes, the mountain road ahead became more and more spacious. After turning a corner, there was a very open and flat open space ahead. There were already many young people waiting in the open space, and there were a few more in midair. The familiar fairy who stepped on the flying sword.
Wang Teng, the leader, saw Xia Ruize and announced, "You are the [-]th, very good, you are qualified to be my outer disciple of Qingyang Sect..."
But at this time "Cheng Huaiqian" followed Xia Ruize to the top of the mountain, and immediately retorted loudly after hearing the words: "I will report!"
"Cheng Huaiqian" interrupted Wang Teng's announcement, seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, "Cheng Huaiqian" said confidently:
"I'm reporting that Mr. Xia killed other people who participated in the selection in order to obtain the qualifications of outer disciples! This is what I saw with my own eyes! You can see that there are bloodstains on his body!"
Everyone's attention followed the finger of "Cheng Huaiqian" to look behind Xia Ruize, there was indeed some blood there.
Wang Teng, who stepped on the flying sword, saw this and said: "In this case, the ranking of the perpetrators will be cancelled, and the newcomer will be the [-]th, and he can become an outer disciple of my Qingyang Sect."
After speaking, he even gave Xia Ruize a disgusted look, and said coldly, "My Qingyang Sect doesn't want such vicious people!"
Xia Ruize: ...
Xia Ruize's expression was a bit astonished, and he was silent for a moment before saying:
"I demand the right to be heard!
I didn't harm others. On the contrary, I saw this Mr. Cheng push another person off the cliff with my own eyes.The two bottles of Guyuan Pill on his body were obtained from the victim's baggage. "
"You are cunning! You spout blood! You are still trying to drag me into the water, you are really a villain!"
"Cheng Huaiqian" immediately retorted.
Xia Ruize said unhurriedly:
"Since we insist on our own opinions, I don't think everyone in the Qingyang Sect will listen to one side. I still remember the location where that person fell off the cliff. Maybe the other party was caught by a tree on the cliff. Why don't you let the immortals of the Qingyang Sect stand in front of you?" Go rescue them, and let that person personally identify the perpetrator.”
As soon as these words came out, "Cheng Huaiqian" turned pale with shock, because Xia Ruize was an example of being pushed down the mountain and hanging on a tree and then successfully rescued himself.
Thinking of this, "Cheng Huaiqian" suddenly had a sinister look on his face, and suddenly rushed towards Xia Ruize, obviously repeating the old trick, trying to push Xia Ruize down the cliff and drag him to death together.
Xia Ruize was unprepared last time, so of course he won't be this time. He took a small step across his feet and turned slightly sideways to completely avoid the collision of "Cheng Huaiqian".
"Cheng Huaiqian" exerted too much force and couldn't hold back his momentum. Instead, he rushed down the cliff, and he was about to fall out.
Xia Ruize sighed in his heart, quickly stretched out his hand, grabbed the clothes behind "Cheng Huaiqian", and dragged him, not letting "Cheng Huaiqian" fall, let him accept the punishment.
"The facts are clear, this Mr. Cheng is the real murderer, please punish him severely!"
Xia Ruize said loudly.
Wang Teng on the flying sword looked around, nodded, and asked Xia Ruize, "How do you want to punish him?"
Xia Ruize didn't know how the laws of this world stipulated, so he said, "I should be qualified to become an outer sect disciple of Qingyang Sect. If so, let's punish him according to the rules of Qingyang Sect."
Wang Teng seemed satisfied with his answer and nodded again.
Suddenly, the air in front of Xia Ruize's eyes fluctuated like water ripples. He watched "Cheng Huaiqian" who fell to the ground disappeared, and hundreds of young people who were waiting in the distance also disappeared, and even Wang Teng, who was stepping on a flying sword, disappeared. gone too...
Instead, there is a tall and majestic mountain gate made entirely of white jade, with three golden characters "Qingyangzong" written on it.
Exquisite tables and chairs were placed on the large open space in front of the mountain gate, and many people who looked like immortals were sitting or standing, casting appreciative glances at Xia Ruize.
Xia Ruize: ...
"Wang Teng" who stepped on the flying sword disappeared, and Wang Teng, who was sitting on the seat, smiled at Xia Ruize and comforted him:
"Congratulations, you are the fifth person to pass the second test. You can become my outer sect disciple of Qingyang Sect. Just wait aside."
As he spoke, he pointed to a lawn not far away. There were four young people standing on the lawn. They probably passed the second level earlier than Xia Ruize.
Xia Ruize nodded, and walked to the lawn to wait.
The four people who passed the second level took the initiative to greet each other. They exchanged names, chatted briefly and then waited in silence. They didn't dare to make too much noise because the immortals not far away were discussing something enthusiastically.
Those immortals all looked intently at a small piece of brocade in front of them. The brocade swayed rhythmically in mid-air, attracting the attention of all the immortals like the most interesting object.
From the few comments he heard vaguely, Xia Ruize speculated that people from the Qingyang Sect could see the performance of other young people who participated in the "Inquiring Heart" test from the brocade silk, and the challenges encountered by others seemed to be similar to those he encountered. almost.
It seems that the people of Qingyang Sect want to select disciple candidates by observing the different behaviors of young people when they encounter setbacks, betrayal, temptation, wronged and other adversities.
This method is quite superior. In an extremely realistic environment, it is difficult for the person being tested to find out that what he has experienced is all fake, and it is easy to reveal his true temperament.
"This kid can't do it. He bought a bottle of Gu Yuan Pill, and then robbed the players behind him. His heart is really not firm."
"Hehe, I think that kid on the left is even worse. When he was pushed down, he only knew howling and didn't even try to save himself. Yoyo, he even pushed the person who rescued him down. His heart is really sinister."
"Hey, the one on the right has been wronged to death and can't even say a word to refute. It's not good to just cry. If it goes on like this, it will become entangled. This girl is too delicate."
……
Although Xia Ruize couldn't see other people's performance, he could guess something about what other people did just by listening to the comments.
Not long after, he witnessed the scene where a young man suddenly appeared in an empty place, and then Wang Teng announced that the other party could become an outer disciple.
The silly expressions on the faces of the young people who passed the test are quite interesting.It's just that Xia Ruize was puzzled, why hasn't Cheng Huaiqian come yet?
When there were more than 30 outer disciples, Cheng Huaiqian finally appeared. He glanced at Wang Teng who announced the result, and immediately fixed his gaze on Xia Ruize among the young people waiting beside him.
Not only were the people in the Qingyang Sect not angry, but they were interested to see if there would be any conflicts between the two. After all, they were deceived by each other's image in what they saw.
But Cheng Huaiqian walked straight towards Xia Ruize, stood beside Xia Ruize and said with a low laugh:
"Guess what I did to that man."
The tacit understanding made Xia Ruize immediately understand that the "that person" in Cheng Huaiqian's mouth referred to the self he saw in the test, and immediately asked curiously: "How is it?"
"I pushed him down the mountain three times." Cheng Huaiqian said meaningfully, the people around thought that Cheng Huaiqian hadn't recovered from the test of "asking his heart" and were warning Xia Ruize, but actually Cheng Huaiqian turned to the heart network and excitedly Said:
"The first time he pushed me down the hill, I dragged him down, and we climbed up together.
The second time he said that he had to kill the person in front to both enter the top [-]. I pushed him down again when I pretended to help.Hey, I didn't expect him to take a small path and run up from the mountain again.
The third time he accused me of hurting someone, I just pushed him down the hill. "
When he said this, Cheng Huaiqian stared closely at Xia Ruize's face, and his tone was showing off, a fake is a fake, it's a million miles away from the real one.
Cheng Huaiqian also realized that the "Xia Ruize" next to him had been replaced after he was recruited for the first time. At that time, Cheng Huaiqian was so curious.
He entangled with the fake "Xia Ruize" all the way, kept cheating each other, and didn't even care about his own way, just wanted to see how big the difference was between the fake and the real one.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that, except for the figured appearance, the fake has no similarity with the real one, so he naturally pushed the other person off the cliff again without hesitation.
Xia Ruize smiled helplessly, and displayed the tendencies he collected from the immortals of the Qingyang Sect to evaluate the candidates for his disciples, and said helplessly, "If you go too far, the Qingyang Sect may not pass you."
Fortunately, it may be because Cheng Huaiqian was only focused on "Xia Ruize" who was the first to attack him. Even if he acted too aggressively, he was regarded as revenge, and he was not labeled as "sinister". Otherwise, as long as the people of Qingyang Sect don't let him out, he will never be able to reach the end.
After waiting for two hours, the candidates for the first five hundred outer disciples and one thousand servants were officially announced.
Two groups of people stood clearly on both sides of the mountain gate, watching Wang Teng speak loudly down the mountain:
"The Qingyang Sect's recruitment for this opening of the mountain gate has ended, and the remaining people will be considered eliminated. Please go down the mountain and return by yourself."
A young man who was waiting to rob the newcomers in the rear and plunder the Guyuan Pill on Wenxin Road panicked when he heard the voice, and the illusion around him dissipated.
There are also people who have "killed" others and climbed the endless mountain roads. How can they think that they have not even seen the top of the mountain, and the selection has ended?
Of course, there were also people who were shivering while hugging the small tree between the rocks after being pushed off the cliff, but the phantom dissipated and he was lying on the stone steps.
……
The so-called "questioning the way of mind", the competition is not about who has the best physical strength to reach the top of the mountain first, but the different characters revealed by different responses after encountering an accident.
The Qingyang Sect did not conceal their intentions at all, and directly informed everyone of the name of "Questing Xinlu". The young people who participated in the selection should also know something in their hearts. There is no cure.
Xia Ruize knew that the final candidates for outer disciples and servants must have been influenced by Qingyang Sect, and those whom Qingyang Sect loved would be stuck in "questioning the way of thinking" for a long time, and there was still a lot of room for maneuvering in the middle. big.
But this has nothing to do with him, after all Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian have successfully ranked in the top five hundred.
After Wang Teng announced that the entry selection was over, he said gently to the five hundred outer disciples:
"Congratulations on successfully joining my Qingyang Sect. Starting tomorrow, you will start studying in the outer sect. I hope you will cherish this hard-won learning opportunity!
After a while, I arranged the accommodation with my seniors. If I want to go down the mountain to say goodbye to my family, I will go to your seniors to arrange it. "
When Wang Teng was speaking, a handsome young man in a blue gown walked up to a group of outer disciples and slowly performed a peer salute. Everyone immediately knew that this was the senior brother who was in charge of settling them down.
After explaining to the outer disciples, Wang Teng turned to a thousand servants again, and this time his voice was not so gentle, announcing:
"You have obtained the qualifications to become servants of the Qingyang Sect, and you also have a special senior brother to inform you of your obligations as servants. You can choose whether to stay in the Qingyang Sect or not. If you want to stay, you need to submit Shu Xiu."
As soon as these words came out, the five hundred disciples from the outer sect and the thousand servants looked at each other, one was delighted and the other was envious, and their emotions were almost condensed into substance.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian followed the senior brother in blue gowns into the mountain gate, and when they actually stepped through the mountain gate, the scene in front of them changed again. The front was no longer a tall mountain, but a gentle slope. The trees are shady, the flowers are blooming, and there are rows of houses lined up from not far to the end of the line of sight.
The senior brother brought five hundred newcomers to a courtyard, gestured with his hands, and said:
"The fifty sets of courtyards in the area ahead are the residences prepared for you, and you can choose the rooms in the order you arrive at the top of the mountain.
Five servants are arranged in each courtyard, and the servants will take care of your daily life.You are newcomers who have just arrived. If you have anything you don’t understand, you can ask me, and you can also ask the servants. They started before you, and they know the basic rules of Qingyang Sect, and they understand some simple questions about cultivation.
Ok, now you can choose the room. "
After speaking, just wait for the newcomers to choose by themselves.
The newcomers knew the order in which they arrived at the top of the mountain. The first young man who became an outer disciple walked out of the crowd. The senior brother took out a silver identification plate and handed it to him without much explanation.
Qingyang Sect is worthy of being a big sect, and the conditions it provides for its disciples are very superior.
In other words, the courtyard where I live is not small, facing south, and there are two rooms in each of the east, north, and west directions, five of which are for disciples to live in, and the remaining one is a study room that can be shared.There is also a small warehouse on the south side to store infrequently used items.
In addition, the outer disciples are equipped with servants, and these servants are responsible for taking care of the food and daily life of the outer disciples.
Xia Ruize ranked fifth, and soon it was his turn to choose. He chose a courtyard on the side, and chose the main room next to the study on the north side. A servant was already standing at the door of the room, respectfully following Xia Ruize into the room. The door, took out the tape measure and said that he needed to measure his body shape:
"Under Wuwei, brother sit down and wait a moment, I will go get your clothes and daily necessities for you."
After the measurement, the servant Wu Wei was about to leave the room.
Xia Ruize stopped Wu Wei, "Wait a little longer, when your roommate comes, you can measure it together and go get it."
While talking, someone wanted to choose Xia Ruize's room, Xia Ruize refused, saying that he already had an appointment with a roommate, and those who could choose a room at this time were those who were ranked high, and the other party didn't force him, so he chose the room next to him.
After waiting for a while, Cheng Huaiqian walked into the room. After Wu Wei measured Cheng Huaiqian's figure, he went to collect daily necessities together.
The two of them watched Wu Wei's light footsteps, and realized that this servant of the Qingyang Sect was not something ordinary people could be.
Soon, Wu Wei came back with daily necessities for two people. As outer disciples, each of them had three sets of blue disciple gowns, as well as a full set of daily necessities such as a change of clothes, towels, water basins, paper, pens, etc. school supplies.
At the same time, I brought back dinner. Two big food boxes prepared three dishes and one soup, two meat and one vegetable, and a plate of fruits after meals. I have to say that the living conditions Qingyangzong provided to the disciples were truly amazing. Very superior.
When Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were eating, Wu Wei stood by and told them some sectarian rules, including where to go to class every day, which elders usually teach, there are assessments every ten days, and there are big exams every month .
There is a rule that Wu Wei reminded the two emphatically that after each monthly exam, according to the ranking of results, ten outer disciples will be demoted to servants, and ten servants will be promoted to outer disciples.
Xia Ruize asked curiously: "Which batch of servants?"
Xia Ruize now knew that Wu Wei, who was in charge of taking care of them, was the previous batch of servants who joined the Qingyang Sect, but he didn't know which batch of servants they were competing with.
"It's the servants who joined the same batch as you, and the 1000 people who are ranked after the [-]th can choose to hand in a large sum of money to enter the Qingyang Sect to become servants.
The reason why it is necessary to hand in Shuxiu is because the same batch of servants can follow the outer disciples to listen to the lecture after completing the assigned work, and some people who missed the opportunity in the entry selection may be promoted to outer disciples.
So every time, more than half of the people would choose to stay in Qingyang Sect as servants. "
Wu Wei replied.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian looked at each other. They still underestimated the attraction of cultivating immortals. According to Wu Wei, if they wanted to stay in Qingyang Sect as a servant, they would not only have to work hard, but also pay a lot of money. , there are still many people flocking to it.
After dinner, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian took Wu Wei out together, planning to take a good look around the Qingyang Sect within the allowed range, and inquire about some news from Wu Wei.
It just so happened that a person came out of the next room, and the other person came forward to say hello:
"Hello, both of you. I'm Li Shunchen, from Jingu. We'll live in the same courtyard from now on, and we'll greet each other when we need something."
The person who came to say hello was a very festive-looking young man with a round smiling face who looked easy to get along with. Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian also responded with smiles and introduced themselves respectively.
As soon as he heard that both of them were from a small country, Li Shunchen proposed that the three of them go out together and stroll around. During the walk, he picked up some news about Qingyangzong that he knew in advance and chatted with them, and naturally revealed a lot of news.
Naturally, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian would not refuse. Li Shunchen and Wu Wei went for a walk, and they learned a lot about Qingyangzong.
Much more information than their identity background provides them.
It was getting late, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest. The servants had a special courtyard. After confirming that Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian no longer needed servants, and making an appointment to deliver breakfast the next day, Wu Wei left the courtyard of the outer disciples.
The next day, when it was just dawn, Wu Wei came with two big food boxes. After putting the food boxes away, he was busy fetching hot water for them to wash, which made Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian a little uncomfortable.
However, according to their personality, they also have servants to serve them at home, so they can't show too much discomfort.
When the two were having breakfast, Wu Wei, who was standing by the side, asked Cheng Huaiqian, "The sect's office in Qingyang City sent a message that a person who claimed to be your servant wanted to see you, do you see?"
Hearing this, Cheng Huaiqian was taken aback, and looked at Xia Ruize, then suddenly remembered that at the beginning of the mission world, he was accompanied by a servant who wanted to trick him.
It was only when Cheng Huaiqian was reminded that he remembered the servant he had forgotten thousands of miles away, but the servant who insisted on pouring water on Cheng Huaiqian had already sensed that something was wrong.
At that time, the first hurdle of Qingyang Sect's selection of disciples was over, and the servants couldn't find Cheng Huaiqian, thinking that there were too many people and got separated.It wasn't until all the people eliminated by Qingyang Sect left the foot of Qingyang Mountain, and the servants still couldn't find them, that they realized that something seemed wrong.
The servant continued to wait, and after the people who had been eliminated in the second stage left the foot of Qingyang Mountain one after another, he was unwilling to accept the possibility of his young master successfully entering the Qingyang Sect, and firmly believed that Cheng Huaiqian had already returned to Qingyang City by himself, so he hurried back to Qingyang City However, Cheng Huaiqian was not present in the inn where the master and servant stayed temporarily.
The servant who was told by the mistress to watch over Cheng Huaiqian, who tripped Cheng Huaiqian and drank the water mixed with laxatives at the critical moment, couldn't believe that the fifth son of the Cheng family could pass the Qingyang Sect's entrance smoothly after drinking the water he gave him. Enter the Qingyang Sect for the assessment!
But the person was indeed missing, so the servant had to find the office of Qingyang Sect in Qingyang City with the idea of trying it out, and then got a definite reply here that "Cheng Huaiqian" had indeed become an outer disciple of Qingyang Sect.
The servant who was stunned by the shock quickly asked to pass on the news that he wanted to see his son.
The news spread all the way to the outer door. At that time, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had already rested, so they informed Wu Wei instead.
"I don't need a servant by my side, let him go home and report his elders' safety."
Cheng Huaiqian said casually.
Wu Wei responded and expressed his understanding, and soon passed the news down the mountain.
The servant who couldn't enter the Qingyang Sect had no choice but to go home. He had to report back to the mistress as soon as possible.
The fifth son, who had been suppressed and excluded by the mistress of the house, actually entered the Qingyang Sect?He even became an outer disciple!This news is bound to shock the Cheng family.
Worried about his own fate in his heart, the servant didn't dare to delay too much along the way, and went tirelessly all the way to Chengyan Kingdom.
After eating and drinking, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who were in Qingyangzong, were led by Wu Wei to the place where they had classes. It was a huge courtyard with white walls and black tiles, called the Taoist Temple.
There is a high platform in the center of the preaching house, surrounded by a road paved with bluestone slabs. There are futons and low tables on the bluestone slabs, which are distributed in a circle around the high platform.
Futons and low tables are specially prepared for new disciples of the outer sect, and the seat arrangement follows the principle of first come, first served.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had learned about this rule from Wu Wei in advance, so they came early today, chose a seat in the third row and sat down, placed the paper and charcoal they brought on the low table in front of them, and prepared to take notes .
As a servant, Wu Wei could sit on the ground outside the futon of the preaching hall and was allowed to attend lectures together.
According to Wu Wei's account, he had actually taken these classes with the outer disciples who were in the same batch as him when he started. Now the outer disciples in the same batch mainly practice on their own, without arranging too many public classes. In order to take care of the servants of the new batch of outer disciples, the basic courses can be re-consolidated with the new disciples.
When talking about this benefit, Wu Wei's tone was somewhat joyful and proud.
There were more than 600 servants in the same batch that he had started back then, but only more than 200 servants were needed to take care of the new disciples. Naturally, he chose those who performed well among the servants.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian immediately understood that this was probably the reason why many people would rather pay a high price to send their family children to join the Qingyang Sect as servants.
Apart from the hesitation to serve people, the learning opportunities that servants get are not much different from those of outer disciples.
Because the two outer disciples who took care of him were willing to go to the lecture hall early to occupy seats, Wu Wei could also occupy a slightly front seat, so Wu Wei settled down Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian carefully and responsibly before going to the back to find a place Sit on the ground.
It is a very rare opportunity for the head of the sect to teach in person. Although they are all basic courses, there will definitely be more gains after listening to them again.
When the time came, a fairy descended from the sky and landed on the high platform in the middle. It was a graceful and luxurious female immortal cultivator. She looked around at the outer disciples, smiled gently, and began to talk about the things that outer disciples need to master. course.
"For you at present, the most important thing is to master the "Qingyang Mind Method" as soon as possible. Only when you really master the mind method, feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth enter your body, gather in the dantian, and break through to the first level of Qi training, can you It can be regarded as embarking on the road of cultivating immortals.
You have a ten-year time to specialize in mental methods, and then you need to shift part of your attention to other courses, such as exercises. Only by learning how to use methods can you show your strength.
In addition, courses will be arranged for Talismans, Pills, Artifacts, Arrays, etc. Of course, these will only arrange basic courses. If you are interested, you can study in depth by yourself.
Finally, I hope you will remember that exams will be arranged every ten days and every month.
The outer sect will give you one month to adapt to the rhythm of the Qingyang sect, and the assessment at the end of the first month will not eliminate the outer sect disciples.
But starting from the second month, the last ten in the monthly exam will be reduced to servants, and correspondingly, the top ten servants will be promoted to outer disciples, so you must pay close attention to it. "
The noble immortal on the high platform slowly came to Qingyang Sect's arrangement for the new disciples, and heard the expressions of the disciples below getting more and more panicked, but they didn't dare to protest at all.
After explaining the basic situation, the immortal began to explain "Qingyang Heart Method" in detail.
The immortal on the high platform waved his hand, and the five hundred jade slips flew towards the disciples of the outer sect, and they stuck them on the foreheads of the disciples. Immediately, a thousand-word heart method appeared in front of the disciples.
"This jade slip will be borrowed by you for three days. It can only be memorized and used by yourself. It cannot be copied or passed on to outsiders. Within three days, you must memorize it by heart!"
After exhorting, the immortal began to explain the contents of the mental method word by word in detail.
Although the fairy on the high platform had a gentle voice and detailed explanations, she didn't care whether the disciples below understood her or not, and she just continued talking for two full hours on her own.
Young people who have just been exposed to the cultivation of immortals are confused and dizzy. Even if they try their best to take notes, they are in a hurry.
Some people even passed out due to excessive energy consumption under tension because they watched the mental methods stored in the jade slips for a long time and couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the immortal's lectures.
As soon as noon arrived, the immortal finished his lecture and flew away by himself.
The winking servant hurried forward to help the outer disciple he was taking care of, but Wu Wei wanted to help, but Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had already got up on their own without giving him a chance at all.
"Bring lunch to your room."
After making arrangements, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian walked directly towards their residence.
With the mental method in hand, they can't wait to try to cultivate, and want to see the difference between the power principle of this cultivation world and the magic world.
There are no classes arranged in the afternoon, it is time for the outer disciples to comprehend and practice on their own.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had a discussion over lunch, confirming to each other that their understanding of the morning course was correct, and Wu Wei would help to add a few words from time to time.
After all, Wu Wei entered Qingyang Sect three years ago and started to practice "Qingyang Heart Method". Now he has reached the third level of Qi training, and his understanding of heart method is deeper than that of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian who just started practicing.
It's a pity that his cultivation results are not considered good among the same batch of servants, so he has been unable to get rid of his status as a servant.
The Qingyang sect has strict hierarchy. Even though Wu Wei has embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, since he is only a servant and not an outer disciple, he can only call the newcomers Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian senior brothers, and he must take good care of them.
After lunch, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian couldn't wait to sit down and try to practice "Qingyang Heart Method".
As soon as the "Qingyang Heart Method" was running, the two immediately realized that, similar to the process of introducing elements into the body in the magic world, the world of cultivating immortals also attracts the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into their bodies.
The two quickly attracted the surrounding aura. After entering the body, the aura circulated according to a specific route. Every time a cycle passed through the dantian, part of the aura that was originally in a gaseous state would turn into a liquid state and stay in the dantian. middle.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian immediately knew that this was their spiritual power, which was the result of working their minds.
They can perceive that their dantian is currently the size of soybeans. As long as the spiritual power transformed into liquid can fill the dantian the size of soybeans and burst it, they will officially break through to the first level of Qi training.
With the experience of practicing magic, the two of them are really familiar with the process of introducing spiritual energy into the body, especially after memorizing the route of spiritual energy, the speed of mental circulation is getting faster and faster.
At Shenshi in the afternoon, the spiritual power in Xia Ruize's body was already full of soybean-sized dantian, and Xia Ruize continued to run his mind. At the end of a certain Sunday, when the spiritual energy passed through the dantian, the new spiritual power exceeded the upper limit of the dantian.
Xia Ruize seemed to hear a slight "pop" in his ears, and then he felt that his dantian was broken, which meant that he had broken the first layer of restraint in his body. Outside the broken dantian was a layer of bigger dantian .
The shattering of the smallest layer of dantian also means that Xia Ruize has been successfully promoted to the first layer of Qi training.
After a successful breakthrough, Xia Ruize paused his practice, opened his eyes, got up and walked around the room, waving his hands and legs, feeling that the process of cultivation and breakthrough was easy.
Of course, the result of the easy breakthrough is that I feel that I have not changed much.
This is actually because his own physical fitness is already very high. If other ordinary people can break through to the first level of Qi training, they will still feel a little lighter in their bodies, and even their strength will increase a little.
Xia Ruize rubbed his chin, since he didn't feel tired at all, he decided to continue practicing.
So he sat down again and continued to exercise his mind.
Until night fell, Wu Wei didn't see any movement from Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian in the room. Seeing that the dinner he brought back was going to be cold if he didn't eat it, he had no choice but to knock on the door.
Soon, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian got up and opened the door, reaching out to take the food box from Wu Wei's hand.
Wu Wei, on the other hand, froze on the spot, staring wide-eyed in disbelief and asking, "You, have you made a breakthrough?"
For a moment, Wu Wei felt like a sledgehammer had hit him on the head, and was so surprised that he couldn't speak clearly.
He has only been in the third level of Qi training for three years, and the two outer disciples in front of him have only been in the door for one day, and only listened to the class for one day, and they have cultivated to the first level of Qi training on their own?
Wu Wei, who was hit so hard, couldn't recover for a while. He clearly realized the great difference in aptitude between people, and he felt very depressed for a moment.
The news that Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian broke through to the first level of Qi training gradually spread with Wu Wei's words. When the outer disciples in other rooms came to visit because they were too shocked, Wu Wei felt a little more at ease. Still a minority, not only hit him, but also hit others.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian didn't hide anything from the people who came to ask them, they both nodded and admitted that they had made a breakthrough.
This news has stimulated how many pretentious children of the big family who were originally proud of being disciples of the Qingyang Sect's outer sect suddenly felt threatened. The room began to practice.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian looked at each other with helpless expressions. They really felt that the whole cultivation process was easy and natural, but they didn't expect their performance to be a bit too outstanding.
However, outsiders' comments couldn't affect the two of them. After dinner, they didn't even go out for a walk, but closed the door and continued to practice in the room.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who have only stayed in the mission world for a few months at most, always have a sense of urgency, cherish the quiet learning opportunity at the initial stage of the mission, and try their best to squeeze the wool of the main god.
This practice lasted most of the night, and he took a nap after breaking through to the second level of Qi training.
When the sky is bright and get up early to prepare for a new day of classes.
Today's Wu Wei's attitude towards Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian is more respectful than that of the previous two days. If his care for the previous two days was due to the Qingyang Sect's rules and regulations, then today's respect comes from the heart.
He had a hunch that these two newcomers might soon overtake him, so he wanted to hug his thighs right now.
Wu Wei seemed to have completely forgotten his identity as a third-level qi cultivator, and completely put himself in the position of a servant, wanting to take good care of Xia Ruize and the two in every way.
Now Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian felt even more uncomfortable, and quickly said that it would be better for Wu Wei to maintain his previous attitude.
Let Wu Wei sigh.
As soon as Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian went out, Li Shunchen was already waiting in the courtyard. When he saw the two of them, he greeted them warmly and said:
"Senior Brother Xia and Senior Brother Cheng, I heard that you two have successfully promoted to the first level of Qi training, congratulations!"
Xia Ruize glanced at Li Shunchen, and because of the special connection between practitioners, he immediately knew that the other party had also broken through to the first level of Qi training, and immediately smiled and congratulated him back.
The three of them talked and laughed and walked towards the monastery. Li Shunchen came from a big secular family. Although he only started to practice formally yesterday, he had been influenced by his ears and eyes during his growth, and his understanding of the fairyland was better than that of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian. There were many more outsiders, and some of the information he said casually could help Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian fill in the gaps in their background knowledge.
Today, when Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian walked into the monastery, the people around them, whether they were the same batch of outer disciples or the servants who followed them, all focused their attention on Xia Ruize, Cheng Huaiqian and Li Shunchen next to them.
The content of chatting with each other is also unavoidable
It's just that Cheng Huaiqian should not know the information about these indigenous worlds.
Xia Ruize looked at his lover's face and made such an expression, but felt hot eyes, threw the Guyuan Pill back in his hand, and refused in a cold tone:
"I don't want to! I don't dare to be brothers with Mr. Cheng again. Mr. Cheng stays away from me. Don't push me down the mountain again, it's a good deed."
After speaking, he left without looking back.
"Cheng Huaiqian" in the back looked hard, and with a flick of his hand, a few drops of blood stained on his hand were thrown onto Xia Ruize.
Xia Ruize "saw" this scene, but did not react immediately. He also wanted to see what else this person could do.
After walking alone for more than ten minutes, the mountain road ahead became more and more spacious. After turning a corner, there was a very open and flat open space ahead. There were already many young people waiting in the open space, and there were a few more in midair. The familiar fairy who stepped on the flying sword.
Wang Teng, the leader, saw Xia Ruize and announced, "You are the [-]th, very good, you are qualified to be my outer disciple of Qingyang Sect..."
But at this time "Cheng Huaiqian" followed Xia Ruize to the top of the mountain, and immediately retorted loudly after hearing the words: "I will report!"
"Cheng Huaiqian" interrupted Wang Teng's announcement, seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, "Cheng Huaiqian" said confidently:
"I'm reporting that Mr. Xia killed other people who participated in the selection in order to obtain the qualifications of outer disciples! This is what I saw with my own eyes! You can see that there are bloodstains on his body!"
Everyone's attention followed the finger of "Cheng Huaiqian" to look behind Xia Ruize, there was indeed some blood there.
Wang Teng, who stepped on the flying sword, saw this and said: "In this case, the ranking of the perpetrators will be cancelled, and the newcomer will be the [-]th, and he can become an outer disciple of my Qingyang Sect."
After speaking, he even gave Xia Ruize a disgusted look, and said coldly, "My Qingyang Sect doesn't want such vicious people!"
Xia Ruize: ...
Xia Ruize's expression was a bit astonished, and he was silent for a moment before saying:
"I demand the right to be heard!
I didn't harm others. On the contrary, I saw this Mr. Cheng push another person off the cliff with my own eyes.The two bottles of Guyuan Pill on his body were obtained from the victim's baggage. "
"You are cunning! You spout blood! You are still trying to drag me into the water, you are really a villain!"
"Cheng Huaiqian" immediately retorted.
Xia Ruize said unhurriedly:
"Since we insist on our own opinions, I don't think everyone in the Qingyang Sect will listen to one side. I still remember the location where that person fell off the cliff. Maybe the other party was caught by a tree on the cliff. Why don't you let the immortals of the Qingyang Sect stand in front of you?" Go rescue them, and let that person personally identify the perpetrator.”
As soon as these words came out, "Cheng Huaiqian" turned pale with shock, because Xia Ruize was an example of being pushed down the mountain and hanging on a tree and then successfully rescued himself.
Thinking of this, "Cheng Huaiqian" suddenly had a sinister look on his face, and suddenly rushed towards Xia Ruize, obviously repeating the old trick, trying to push Xia Ruize down the cliff and drag him to death together.
Xia Ruize was unprepared last time, so of course he won't be this time. He took a small step across his feet and turned slightly sideways to completely avoid the collision of "Cheng Huaiqian".
"Cheng Huaiqian" exerted too much force and couldn't hold back his momentum. Instead, he rushed down the cliff, and he was about to fall out.
Xia Ruize sighed in his heart, quickly stretched out his hand, grabbed the clothes behind "Cheng Huaiqian", and dragged him, not letting "Cheng Huaiqian" fall, let him accept the punishment.
"The facts are clear, this Mr. Cheng is the real murderer, please punish him severely!"
Xia Ruize said loudly.
Wang Teng on the flying sword looked around, nodded, and asked Xia Ruize, "How do you want to punish him?"
Xia Ruize didn't know how the laws of this world stipulated, so he said, "I should be qualified to become an outer sect disciple of Qingyang Sect. If so, let's punish him according to the rules of Qingyang Sect."
Wang Teng seemed satisfied with his answer and nodded again.
Suddenly, the air in front of Xia Ruize's eyes fluctuated like water ripples. He watched "Cheng Huaiqian" who fell to the ground disappeared, and hundreds of young people who were waiting in the distance also disappeared, and even Wang Teng, who was stepping on a flying sword, disappeared. gone too...
Instead, there is a tall and majestic mountain gate made entirely of white jade, with three golden characters "Qingyangzong" written on it.
Exquisite tables and chairs were placed on the large open space in front of the mountain gate, and many people who looked like immortals were sitting or standing, casting appreciative glances at Xia Ruize.
Xia Ruize: ...
"Wang Teng" who stepped on the flying sword disappeared, and Wang Teng, who was sitting on the seat, smiled at Xia Ruize and comforted him:
"Congratulations, you are the fifth person to pass the second test. You can become my outer sect disciple of Qingyang Sect. Just wait aside."
As he spoke, he pointed to a lawn not far away. There were four young people standing on the lawn. They probably passed the second level earlier than Xia Ruize.
Xia Ruize nodded, and walked to the lawn to wait.
The four people who passed the second level took the initiative to greet each other. They exchanged names, chatted briefly and then waited in silence. They didn't dare to make too much noise because the immortals not far away were discussing something enthusiastically.
Those immortals all looked intently at a small piece of brocade in front of them. The brocade swayed rhythmically in mid-air, attracting the attention of all the immortals like the most interesting object.
From the few comments he heard vaguely, Xia Ruize speculated that people from the Qingyang Sect could see the performance of other young people who participated in the "Inquiring Heart" test from the brocade silk, and the challenges encountered by others seemed to be similar to those he encountered. almost.
It seems that the people of Qingyang Sect want to select disciple candidates by observing the different behaviors of young people when they encounter setbacks, betrayal, temptation, wronged and other adversities.
This method is quite superior. In an extremely realistic environment, it is difficult for the person being tested to find out that what he has experienced is all fake, and it is easy to reveal his true temperament.
"This kid can't do it. He bought a bottle of Gu Yuan Pill, and then robbed the players behind him. His heart is really not firm."
"Hehe, I think that kid on the left is even worse. When he was pushed down, he only knew howling and didn't even try to save himself. Yoyo, he even pushed the person who rescued him down. His heart is really sinister."
"Hey, the one on the right has been wronged to death and can't even say a word to refute. It's not good to just cry. If it goes on like this, it will become entangled. This girl is too delicate."
……
Although Xia Ruize couldn't see other people's performance, he could guess something about what other people did just by listening to the comments.
Not long after, he witnessed the scene where a young man suddenly appeared in an empty place, and then Wang Teng announced that the other party could become an outer disciple.
The silly expressions on the faces of the young people who passed the test are quite interesting.It's just that Xia Ruize was puzzled, why hasn't Cheng Huaiqian come yet?
When there were more than 30 outer disciples, Cheng Huaiqian finally appeared. He glanced at Wang Teng who announced the result, and immediately fixed his gaze on Xia Ruize among the young people waiting beside him.
Not only were the people in the Qingyang Sect not angry, but they were interested to see if there would be any conflicts between the two. After all, they were deceived by each other's image in what they saw.
But Cheng Huaiqian walked straight towards Xia Ruize, stood beside Xia Ruize and said with a low laugh:
"Guess what I did to that man."
The tacit understanding made Xia Ruize immediately understand that the "that person" in Cheng Huaiqian's mouth referred to the self he saw in the test, and immediately asked curiously: "How is it?"
"I pushed him down the mountain three times." Cheng Huaiqian said meaningfully, the people around thought that Cheng Huaiqian hadn't recovered from the test of "asking his heart" and were warning Xia Ruize, but actually Cheng Huaiqian turned to the heart network and excitedly Said:
"The first time he pushed me down the hill, I dragged him down, and we climbed up together.
The second time he said that he had to kill the person in front to both enter the top [-]. I pushed him down again when I pretended to help.Hey, I didn't expect him to take a small path and run up from the mountain again.
The third time he accused me of hurting someone, I just pushed him down the hill. "
When he said this, Cheng Huaiqian stared closely at Xia Ruize's face, and his tone was showing off, a fake is a fake, it's a million miles away from the real one.
Cheng Huaiqian also realized that the "Xia Ruize" next to him had been replaced after he was recruited for the first time. At that time, Cheng Huaiqian was so curious.
He entangled with the fake "Xia Ruize" all the way, kept cheating each other, and didn't even care about his own way, just wanted to see how big the difference was between the fake and the real one.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that, except for the figured appearance, the fake has no similarity with the real one, so he naturally pushed the other person off the cliff again without hesitation.
Xia Ruize smiled helplessly, and displayed the tendencies he collected from the immortals of the Qingyang Sect to evaluate the candidates for his disciples, and said helplessly, "If you go too far, the Qingyang Sect may not pass you."
Fortunately, it may be because Cheng Huaiqian was only focused on "Xia Ruize" who was the first to attack him. Even if he acted too aggressively, he was regarded as revenge, and he was not labeled as "sinister". Otherwise, as long as the people of Qingyang Sect don't let him out, he will never be able to reach the end.
After waiting for two hours, the candidates for the first five hundred outer disciples and one thousand servants were officially announced.
Two groups of people stood clearly on both sides of the mountain gate, watching Wang Teng speak loudly down the mountain:
"The Qingyang Sect's recruitment for this opening of the mountain gate has ended, and the remaining people will be considered eliminated. Please go down the mountain and return by yourself."
A young man who was waiting to rob the newcomers in the rear and plunder the Guyuan Pill on Wenxin Road panicked when he heard the voice, and the illusion around him dissipated.
There are also people who have "killed" others and climbed the endless mountain roads. How can they think that they have not even seen the top of the mountain, and the selection has ended?
Of course, there were also people who were shivering while hugging the small tree between the rocks after being pushed off the cliff, but the phantom dissipated and he was lying on the stone steps.
……
The so-called "questioning the way of mind", the competition is not about who has the best physical strength to reach the top of the mountain first, but the different characters revealed by different responses after encountering an accident.
The Qingyang Sect did not conceal their intentions at all, and directly informed everyone of the name of "Questing Xinlu". The young people who participated in the selection should also know something in their hearts. There is no cure.
Xia Ruize knew that the final candidates for outer disciples and servants must have been influenced by Qingyang Sect, and those whom Qingyang Sect loved would be stuck in "questioning the way of thinking" for a long time, and there was still a lot of room for maneuvering in the middle. big.
But this has nothing to do with him, after all Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian have successfully ranked in the top five hundred.
After Wang Teng announced that the entry selection was over, he said gently to the five hundred outer disciples:
"Congratulations on successfully joining my Qingyang Sect. Starting tomorrow, you will start studying in the outer sect. I hope you will cherish this hard-won learning opportunity!
After a while, I arranged the accommodation with my seniors. If I want to go down the mountain to say goodbye to my family, I will go to your seniors to arrange it. "
When Wang Teng was speaking, a handsome young man in a blue gown walked up to a group of outer disciples and slowly performed a peer salute. Everyone immediately knew that this was the senior brother who was in charge of settling them down.
After explaining to the outer disciples, Wang Teng turned to a thousand servants again, and this time his voice was not so gentle, announcing:
"You have obtained the qualifications to become servants of the Qingyang Sect, and you also have a special senior brother to inform you of your obligations as servants. You can choose whether to stay in the Qingyang Sect or not. If you want to stay, you need to submit Shu Xiu."
As soon as these words came out, the five hundred disciples from the outer sect and the thousand servants looked at each other, one was delighted and the other was envious, and their emotions were almost condensed into substance.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian followed the senior brother in blue gowns into the mountain gate, and when they actually stepped through the mountain gate, the scene in front of them changed again. The front was no longer a tall mountain, but a gentle slope. The trees are shady, the flowers are blooming, and there are rows of houses lined up from not far to the end of the line of sight.
The senior brother brought five hundred newcomers to a courtyard, gestured with his hands, and said:
"The fifty sets of courtyards in the area ahead are the residences prepared for you, and you can choose the rooms in the order you arrive at the top of the mountain.
Five servants are arranged in each courtyard, and the servants will take care of your daily life.You are newcomers who have just arrived. If you have anything you don’t understand, you can ask me, and you can also ask the servants. They started before you, and they know the basic rules of Qingyang Sect, and they understand some simple questions about cultivation.
Ok, now you can choose the room. "
After speaking, just wait for the newcomers to choose by themselves.
The newcomers knew the order in which they arrived at the top of the mountain. The first young man who became an outer disciple walked out of the crowd. The senior brother took out a silver identification plate and handed it to him without much explanation.
Qingyang Sect is worthy of being a big sect, and the conditions it provides for its disciples are very superior.
In other words, the courtyard where I live is not small, facing south, and there are two rooms in each of the east, north, and west directions, five of which are for disciples to live in, and the remaining one is a study room that can be shared.There is also a small warehouse on the south side to store infrequently used items.
In addition, the outer disciples are equipped with servants, and these servants are responsible for taking care of the food and daily life of the outer disciples.
Xia Ruize ranked fifth, and soon it was his turn to choose. He chose a courtyard on the side, and chose the main room next to the study on the north side. A servant was already standing at the door of the room, respectfully following Xia Ruize into the room. The door, took out the tape measure and said that he needed to measure his body shape:
"Under Wuwei, brother sit down and wait a moment, I will go get your clothes and daily necessities for you."
After the measurement, the servant Wu Wei was about to leave the room.
Xia Ruize stopped Wu Wei, "Wait a little longer, when your roommate comes, you can measure it together and go get it."
While talking, someone wanted to choose Xia Ruize's room, Xia Ruize refused, saying that he already had an appointment with a roommate, and those who could choose a room at this time were those who were ranked high, and the other party didn't force him, so he chose the room next to him.
After waiting for a while, Cheng Huaiqian walked into the room. After Wu Wei measured Cheng Huaiqian's figure, he went to collect daily necessities together.
The two of them watched Wu Wei's light footsteps, and realized that this servant of the Qingyang Sect was not something ordinary people could be.
Soon, Wu Wei came back with daily necessities for two people. As outer disciples, each of them had three sets of blue disciple gowns, as well as a full set of daily necessities such as a change of clothes, towels, water basins, paper, pens, etc. school supplies.
At the same time, I brought back dinner. Two big food boxes prepared three dishes and one soup, two meat and one vegetable, and a plate of fruits after meals. I have to say that the living conditions Qingyangzong provided to the disciples were truly amazing. Very superior.
When Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were eating, Wu Wei stood by and told them some sectarian rules, including where to go to class every day, which elders usually teach, there are assessments every ten days, and there are big exams every month .
There is a rule that Wu Wei reminded the two emphatically that after each monthly exam, according to the ranking of results, ten outer disciples will be demoted to servants, and ten servants will be promoted to outer disciples.
Xia Ruize asked curiously: "Which batch of servants?"
Xia Ruize now knew that Wu Wei, who was in charge of taking care of them, was the previous batch of servants who joined the Qingyang Sect, but he didn't know which batch of servants they were competing with.
"It's the servants who joined the same batch as you, and the 1000 people who are ranked after the [-]th can choose to hand in a large sum of money to enter the Qingyang Sect to become servants.
The reason why it is necessary to hand in Shuxiu is because the same batch of servants can follow the outer disciples to listen to the lecture after completing the assigned work, and some people who missed the opportunity in the entry selection may be promoted to outer disciples.
So every time, more than half of the people would choose to stay in Qingyang Sect as servants. "
Wu Wei replied.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian looked at each other. They still underestimated the attraction of cultivating immortals. According to Wu Wei, if they wanted to stay in Qingyang Sect as a servant, they would not only have to work hard, but also pay a lot of money. , there are still many people flocking to it.
After dinner, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian took Wu Wei out together, planning to take a good look around the Qingyang Sect within the allowed range, and inquire about some news from Wu Wei.
It just so happened that a person came out of the next room, and the other person came forward to say hello:
"Hello, both of you. I'm Li Shunchen, from Jingu. We'll live in the same courtyard from now on, and we'll greet each other when we need something."
The person who came to say hello was a very festive-looking young man with a round smiling face who looked easy to get along with. Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian also responded with smiles and introduced themselves respectively.
As soon as he heard that both of them were from a small country, Li Shunchen proposed that the three of them go out together and stroll around. During the walk, he picked up some news about Qingyangzong that he knew in advance and chatted with them, and naturally revealed a lot of news.
Naturally, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian would not refuse. Li Shunchen and Wu Wei went for a walk, and they learned a lot about Qingyangzong.
Much more information than their identity background provides them.
It was getting late, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest. The servants had a special courtyard. After confirming that Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian no longer needed servants, and making an appointment to deliver breakfast the next day, Wu Wei left the courtyard of the outer disciples.
The next day, when it was just dawn, Wu Wei came with two big food boxes. After putting the food boxes away, he was busy fetching hot water for them to wash, which made Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian a little uncomfortable.
However, according to their personality, they also have servants to serve them at home, so they can't show too much discomfort.
When the two were having breakfast, Wu Wei, who was standing by the side, asked Cheng Huaiqian, "The sect's office in Qingyang City sent a message that a person who claimed to be your servant wanted to see you, do you see?"
Hearing this, Cheng Huaiqian was taken aback, and looked at Xia Ruize, then suddenly remembered that at the beginning of the mission world, he was accompanied by a servant who wanted to trick him.
It was only when Cheng Huaiqian was reminded that he remembered the servant he had forgotten thousands of miles away, but the servant who insisted on pouring water on Cheng Huaiqian had already sensed that something was wrong.
At that time, the first hurdle of Qingyang Sect's selection of disciples was over, and the servants couldn't find Cheng Huaiqian, thinking that there were too many people and got separated.It wasn't until all the people eliminated by Qingyang Sect left the foot of Qingyang Mountain, and the servants still couldn't find them, that they realized that something seemed wrong.
The servant continued to wait, and after the people who had been eliminated in the second stage left the foot of Qingyang Mountain one after another, he was unwilling to accept the possibility of his young master successfully entering the Qingyang Sect, and firmly believed that Cheng Huaiqian had already returned to Qingyang City by himself, so he hurried back to Qingyang City However, Cheng Huaiqian was not present in the inn where the master and servant stayed temporarily.
The servant who was told by the mistress to watch over Cheng Huaiqian, who tripped Cheng Huaiqian and drank the water mixed with laxatives at the critical moment, couldn't believe that the fifth son of the Cheng family could pass the Qingyang Sect's entrance smoothly after drinking the water he gave him. Enter the Qingyang Sect for the assessment!
But the person was indeed missing, so the servant had to find the office of Qingyang Sect in Qingyang City with the idea of trying it out, and then got a definite reply here that "Cheng Huaiqian" had indeed become an outer disciple of Qingyang Sect.
The servant who was stunned by the shock quickly asked to pass on the news that he wanted to see his son.
The news spread all the way to the outer door. At that time, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had already rested, so they informed Wu Wei instead.
"I don't need a servant by my side, let him go home and report his elders' safety."
Cheng Huaiqian said casually.
Wu Wei responded and expressed his understanding, and soon passed the news down the mountain.
The servant who couldn't enter the Qingyang Sect had no choice but to go home. He had to report back to the mistress as soon as possible.
The fifth son, who had been suppressed and excluded by the mistress of the house, actually entered the Qingyang Sect?He even became an outer disciple!This news is bound to shock the Cheng family.
Worried about his own fate in his heart, the servant didn't dare to delay too much along the way, and went tirelessly all the way to Chengyan Kingdom.
After eating and drinking, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who were in Qingyangzong, were led by Wu Wei to the place where they had classes. It was a huge courtyard with white walls and black tiles, called the Taoist Temple.
There is a high platform in the center of the preaching house, surrounded by a road paved with bluestone slabs. There are futons and low tables on the bluestone slabs, which are distributed in a circle around the high platform.
Futons and low tables are specially prepared for new disciples of the outer sect, and the seat arrangement follows the principle of first come, first served.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had learned about this rule from Wu Wei in advance, so they came early today, chose a seat in the third row and sat down, placed the paper and charcoal they brought on the low table in front of them, and prepared to take notes .
As a servant, Wu Wei could sit on the ground outside the futon of the preaching hall and was allowed to attend lectures together.
According to Wu Wei's account, he had actually taken these classes with the outer disciples who were in the same batch as him when he started. Now the outer disciples in the same batch mainly practice on their own, without arranging too many public classes. In order to take care of the servants of the new batch of outer disciples, the basic courses can be re-consolidated with the new disciples.
When talking about this benefit, Wu Wei's tone was somewhat joyful and proud.
There were more than 600 servants in the same batch that he had started back then, but only more than 200 servants were needed to take care of the new disciples. Naturally, he chose those who performed well among the servants.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian immediately understood that this was probably the reason why many people would rather pay a high price to send their family children to join the Qingyang Sect as servants.
Apart from the hesitation to serve people, the learning opportunities that servants get are not much different from those of outer disciples.
Because the two outer disciples who took care of him were willing to go to the lecture hall early to occupy seats, Wu Wei could also occupy a slightly front seat, so Wu Wei settled down Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian carefully and responsibly before going to the back to find a place Sit on the ground.
It is a very rare opportunity for the head of the sect to teach in person. Although they are all basic courses, there will definitely be more gains after listening to them again.
When the time came, a fairy descended from the sky and landed on the high platform in the middle. It was a graceful and luxurious female immortal cultivator. She looked around at the outer disciples, smiled gently, and began to talk about the things that outer disciples need to master. course.
"For you at present, the most important thing is to master the "Qingyang Mind Method" as soon as possible. Only when you really master the mind method, feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth enter your body, gather in the dantian, and break through to the first level of Qi training, can you It can be regarded as embarking on the road of cultivating immortals.
You have a ten-year time to specialize in mental methods, and then you need to shift part of your attention to other courses, such as exercises. Only by learning how to use methods can you show your strength.
In addition, courses will be arranged for Talismans, Pills, Artifacts, Arrays, etc. Of course, these will only arrange basic courses. If you are interested, you can study in depth by yourself.
Finally, I hope you will remember that exams will be arranged every ten days and every month.
The outer sect will give you one month to adapt to the rhythm of the Qingyang sect, and the assessment at the end of the first month will not eliminate the outer sect disciples.
But starting from the second month, the last ten in the monthly exam will be reduced to servants, and correspondingly, the top ten servants will be promoted to outer disciples, so you must pay close attention to it. "
The noble immortal on the high platform slowly came to Qingyang Sect's arrangement for the new disciples, and heard the expressions of the disciples below getting more and more panicked, but they didn't dare to protest at all.
After explaining the basic situation, the immortal began to explain "Qingyang Heart Method" in detail.
The immortal on the high platform waved his hand, and the five hundred jade slips flew towards the disciples of the outer sect, and they stuck them on the foreheads of the disciples. Immediately, a thousand-word heart method appeared in front of the disciples.
"This jade slip will be borrowed by you for three days. It can only be memorized and used by yourself. It cannot be copied or passed on to outsiders. Within three days, you must memorize it by heart!"
After exhorting, the immortal began to explain the contents of the mental method word by word in detail.
Although the fairy on the high platform had a gentle voice and detailed explanations, she didn't care whether the disciples below understood her or not, and she just continued talking for two full hours on her own.
Young people who have just been exposed to the cultivation of immortals are confused and dizzy. Even if they try their best to take notes, they are in a hurry.
Some people even passed out due to excessive energy consumption under tension because they watched the mental methods stored in the jade slips for a long time and couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the immortal's lectures.
As soon as noon arrived, the immortal finished his lecture and flew away by himself.
The winking servant hurried forward to help the outer disciple he was taking care of, but Wu Wei wanted to help, but Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had already got up on their own without giving him a chance at all.
"Bring lunch to your room."
After making arrangements, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian walked directly towards their residence.
With the mental method in hand, they can't wait to try to cultivate, and want to see the difference between the power principle of this cultivation world and the magic world.
There are no classes arranged in the afternoon, it is time for the outer disciples to comprehend and practice on their own.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian had a discussion over lunch, confirming to each other that their understanding of the morning course was correct, and Wu Wei would help to add a few words from time to time.
After all, Wu Wei entered Qingyang Sect three years ago and started to practice "Qingyang Heart Method". Now he has reached the third level of Qi training, and his understanding of heart method is deeper than that of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian who just started practicing.
It's a pity that his cultivation results are not considered good among the same batch of servants, so he has been unable to get rid of his status as a servant.
The Qingyang sect has strict hierarchy. Even though Wu Wei has embarked on the road of cultivating immortals, since he is only a servant and not an outer disciple, he can only call the newcomers Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian senior brothers, and he must take good care of them.
After lunch, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian couldn't wait to sit down and try to practice "Qingyang Heart Method".
As soon as the "Qingyang Heart Method" was running, the two immediately realized that, similar to the process of introducing elements into the body in the magic world, the world of cultivating immortals also attracts the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into their bodies.
The two quickly attracted the surrounding aura. After entering the body, the aura circulated according to a specific route. Every time a cycle passed through the dantian, part of the aura that was originally in a gaseous state would turn into a liquid state and stay in the dantian. middle.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian immediately knew that this was their spiritual power, which was the result of working their minds.
They can perceive that their dantian is currently the size of soybeans. As long as the spiritual power transformed into liquid can fill the dantian the size of soybeans and burst it, they will officially break through to the first level of Qi training.
With the experience of practicing magic, the two of them are really familiar with the process of introducing spiritual energy into the body, especially after memorizing the route of spiritual energy, the speed of mental circulation is getting faster and faster.
At Shenshi in the afternoon, the spiritual power in Xia Ruize's body was already full of soybean-sized dantian, and Xia Ruize continued to run his mind. At the end of a certain Sunday, when the spiritual energy passed through the dantian, the new spiritual power exceeded the upper limit of the dantian.
Xia Ruize seemed to hear a slight "pop" in his ears, and then he felt that his dantian was broken, which meant that he had broken the first layer of restraint in his body. Outside the broken dantian was a layer of bigger dantian .
The shattering of the smallest layer of dantian also means that Xia Ruize has been successfully promoted to the first layer of Qi training.
After a successful breakthrough, Xia Ruize paused his practice, opened his eyes, got up and walked around the room, waving his hands and legs, feeling that the process of cultivation and breakthrough was easy.
Of course, the result of the easy breakthrough is that I feel that I have not changed much.
This is actually because his own physical fitness is already very high. If other ordinary people can break through to the first level of Qi training, they will still feel a little lighter in their bodies, and even their strength will increase a little.
Xia Ruize rubbed his chin, since he didn't feel tired at all, he decided to continue practicing.
So he sat down again and continued to exercise his mind.
Until night fell, Wu Wei didn't see any movement from Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian in the room. Seeing that the dinner he brought back was going to be cold if he didn't eat it, he had no choice but to knock on the door.
Soon, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian got up and opened the door, reaching out to take the food box from Wu Wei's hand.
Wu Wei, on the other hand, froze on the spot, staring wide-eyed in disbelief and asking, "You, have you made a breakthrough?"
For a moment, Wu Wei felt like a sledgehammer had hit him on the head, and was so surprised that he couldn't speak clearly.
He has only been in the third level of Qi training for three years, and the two outer disciples in front of him have only been in the door for one day, and only listened to the class for one day, and they have cultivated to the first level of Qi training on their own?
Wu Wei, who was hit so hard, couldn't recover for a while. He clearly realized the great difference in aptitude between people, and he felt very depressed for a moment.
The news that Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian broke through to the first level of Qi training gradually spread with Wu Wei's words. When the outer disciples in other rooms came to visit because they were too shocked, Wu Wei felt a little more at ease. Still a minority, not only hit him, but also hit others.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian didn't hide anything from the people who came to ask them, they both nodded and admitted that they had made a breakthrough.
This news has stimulated how many pretentious children of the big family who were originally proud of being disciples of the Qingyang Sect's outer sect suddenly felt threatened. The room began to practice.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian looked at each other with helpless expressions. They really felt that the whole cultivation process was easy and natural, but they didn't expect their performance to be a bit too outstanding.
However, outsiders' comments couldn't affect the two of them. After dinner, they didn't even go out for a walk, but closed the door and continued to practice in the room.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who have only stayed in the mission world for a few months at most, always have a sense of urgency, cherish the quiet learning opportunity at the initial stage of the mission, and try their best to squeeze the wool of the main god.
This practice lasted most of the night, and he took a nap after breaking through to the second level of Qi training.
When the sky is bright and get up early to prepare for a new day of classes.
Today's Wu Wei's attitude towards Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian is more respectful than that of the previous two days. If his care for the previous two days was due to the Qingyang Sect's rules and regulations, then today's respect comes from the heart.
He had a hunch that these two newcomers might soon overtake him, so he wanted to hug his thighs right now.
Wu Wei seemed to have completely forgotten his identity as a third-level qi cultivator, and completely put himself in the position of a servant, wanting to take good care of Xia Ruize and the two in every way.
Now Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian felt even more uncomfortable, and quickly said that it would be better for Wu Wei to maintain his previous attitude.
Let Wu Wei sigh.
As soon as Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian went out, Li Shunchen was already waiting in the courtyard. When he saw the two of them, he greeted them warmly and said:
"Senior Brother Xia and Senior Brother Cheng, I heard that you two have successfully promoted to the first level of Qi training, congratulations!"
Xia Ruize glanced at Li Shunchen, and because of the special connection between practitioners, he immediately knew that the other party had also broken through to the first level of Qi training, and immediately smiled and congratulated him back.
The three of them talked and laughed and walked towards the monastery. Li Shunchen came from a big secular family. Although he only started to practice formally yesterday, he had been influenced by his ears and eyes during his growth, and his understanding of the fairyland was better than that of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian. There were many more outsiders, and some of the information he said casually could help Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian fill in the gaps in their background knowledge.
Today, when Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian walked into the monastery, the people around them, whether they were the same batch of outer disciples or the servants who followed them, all focused their attention on Xia Ruize, Cheng Huaiqian and Li Shunchen next to them.
The content of chatting with each other is also unavoidable
