Chapter 227 Outer Disciple
The pressure of the terrifying consciousness suddenly dissipated, and everything returned to calm.
Thousands of disciples suddenly cleared their minds and stopped cheering.
Everyone stared at Lin Mu blankly, as if in a dream.
If it weren't for the faint smell of blood lingering in the air, many people would think everything was too unreal.
The seven true disciples were either dead or injured. They were all defeated at the hands of Lin Mu and Shitou. No one was spared.
Such a sweep, crushing all strength, is heart-warming.
Thousands of outer sect disciples below all had faces filled with admiration and admiration.
These disciples in the Qi refining period rarely go out on weekdays and can only practice hard in the door.
Not to mention the fights between cultivators in the Spiritual Silence Stage, but also the fights between cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the number of times we have seen them can only be counted on one finger.
Today, by chance, I actually witnessed the battle of the true disciples in the sect in public.
The battle was extremely brutal. One of the seven true disciples was killed and six were injured. Lin Mu and Shitou were not spared either.
Lin Mu vomited blood, and Shi Shi was covered in blood. They were all seriously injured.
But for both of them, no matter how serious the injuries were, they were all worth it.
Because they are the winners!
Thousands of disciples witnessed the battles of cultivators in the Spiritual Silence Stage, and they were all delighted.
Many disciples did not cheer blindly after the competition, but their eyes were blurred and thoughtful, as if they had understood something.
Lin Mu and Shitou both had joy shining in their eyes, and they flew down together with smiles on their faces.
The two of them sat down in front of the main hall, and Luo Yan came forward with a smile on his face.
The three of them looked at each other with joy in their eyes, and everything was silent.
Luo Yan and the two of them stood in front of the Qianyu Hall, looking at the thousands of disciples below with their heroic figures.
The winner is full of glory, the loser has already left sadly.
With a smile on his face, Luo Yan looked at the thousands of outer disciples below and said slowly: "Lin Mu lived up to expectations and defeated several true disciples. His strength is obvious to all and there is no need for me to go into details. Even his disciple, Shitou, defeated four of them in succession. A cultivator in the Spiritual Silence Stage, your strength is also outstanding. If you become his disciple, you will most likely be able to reach this level in the future. At least, foundation building will no longer be an empty talk!"
The disciples below suddenly burst into cheers, their faces full of excitement.
As long as you become Lin Mu's disciple, you can build a foundation within ten years.
After reaching the foundation building stage, not to mention being like a stone, if you reverse the steps and defeat the cultivators in the spiritual silence stage, you can become invincible in the foundation building stage, and the harvest is also not small.
With a smile on his face, Luo Yan looked at the thousands of excited disciples below and said with a smile: "This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. There are only fifty people. I hope you will do your best and don't leave any regrets."
The disciples below all nodded and agreed loudly.
"We must try our best!"
"never give up!"
"Fight to the bitter end!"
…
Bursts of passionate sounds came and went.
No one wants to miss such a once-in-a-century opportunity.
Luo Yan was very satisfied with the reaction of the disciples below. He turned around and smiled at Lin Mu: "You have the final say in recruiting disciples this time. You will also make all the rules. If you have anything to say, please tell it to the thousands of outer disciples below. "
Lin Mu smiled and nodded, pondered for a moment, then stepped forward, looked at the thousands of disciples, and said loudly: "This time, there are only fifty disciples. The rules are the same as the usual outer disciple competitions, but there are slight changes. The top forty people in this competition are all qualified to become my disciples. I will select the other ten people who are worthy of training based on their performance on the field, so those with low cultivation levels do not need to be discouraged. As long as you perform well, you may still be selected. As for those who regret not being selected, don't despair. I will come again to recruit students ten years later, and you still have a chance."
Before Lin Mu finished speaking, cheers rang out from below.
Lin Mu's move can be said to be good news for people with ordinary spiritual roots. Many people even had tears in their eyes and couldn't help themselves.
The cheers of the crowd subsided a little, and Lin Mu said with a smile on his face: "Spiritual roots don't mean everything. The most important thing is hard work. I am just a Five Elements spiritual root cultivator, and my qualifications are ordinary. I am even better than you." Everyone is bad. If Elder Luo Yan hadn't brought me into the door, I would never have entered the world of cultivation. Time has proven everything, his choice was right, and I did not disappoint him."
Luo Yan stood aside with a smile.
Lin Mu continued: "Decades ago, I was a little handyman, being called around and bossed around. I only had a meager income, was being deducted from others, and was looked down upon by talented disciples. Today, in front of several In the face of thousands of people, I, a person with ordinary spiritual roots, can defeat three genius disciples who have been practicing for hundreds of years. The reason why I am telling you this is to tell you one thing: there is no absolute in everything. Spiritual roots cannot determine everything, as long as you work hard, there will be miracles.”
Cheers and applause broke out again below.
Lin Mu's experience ignited hope in many people's hearts and made them inexplicably excited.
"I hope that decades later, you can stand here and talk like me," Lin Mu said the last sentence with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, there were long cheers and non-stop applause.
Shi Jian stood in the crowd, looking up at Lin Mu with firm eyes.
He knelt outside the Thousand Feather Sword Gate for three full years before entering.
Now more than twenty years have passed, and his cultivation is only at the eighth level of Qi refining.
After he entered the door, he looked for Lin Mu and wanted to express his gratitude to him.
If it weren't for Lin Mu's kind deed that day, he would have knelt outside for thirty years without ever entering the door.
But unfortunately, Lin Mu had already left the sect by then.
When he came back today, his performance was extremely shocking.
Among the younger generation of Qianyu Sword Sect, no one can compete with Lin Mu anymore.
At the same time as he was happy, he also made up his mind to become Lin Mu's disciple.
In fact, it's not just him, other people also hold this idea.
Although these ordinary disciples of spiritual roots work hard in daily practice, due to their poor qualifications, their progress is really slow and they have been unable to build a foundation.
There are even many people who have been trapped in the tenth level of Qi Refining for twenty years and cannot break through.
Such a disciple, although his cultivation is at the tenth level of Qi Refining, has never taken the Foundation Establishment Pill, so naturally he cannot break through.
Foundation-building pills are hard to come by and are scarce in quantity. Qianyu Sword Sect will not release them easily.
Only those with excellent spiritual roots can be lucky enough to obtain one. By chance, they enter the foundation building stage.
It is difficult to find one for those with ordinary spiritual roots, so they can only wait quietly.
However, many people wait until their hair turns gray and become disciples of the sect later than themselves, and they all build foundations one after another, but they still have not received a foundation building pill.
Until his longevity was exhausted, he died in depression full of dissatisfaction.
This tragedy has been staged countless times.
This competition is a great opportunity for the disciples in the Qi refining stage, and many of them have decided to fight against the odds.
Cheng Ze worships Lin Mu as his teacher, and enters the foundation-building stage in ten years. His lifespan is doubled, and he can live for hundreds more years.
If you fail, you can only slowly wait for death.
It is a matter of life and death. No one dares to be careless and everyone is ready to go all out.
Qifeng returned to the square and hurriedly took the law enforcement hall disciples to take charge of signing up, drawing lots, and arranging the competition venue.
At this time, the two elders Liang Zheng and Hui Wen stood up and said goodbye to Luo Yan and Lin Mu.
After a few people exchanged pleasantries, Liang Zheng and Huiwen left.
The two of them didn't say anything, but in their hearts they were extremely envious of Luo Yan.
It was Luo Yan who took Lin Mu into his sect in the first place, but now Lin Mu's cultivation level has greatly increased, and his strength is almost unrivaled among the true disciples, and the golden elixir is just around the corner.
Luo Yan's status in the sect has also increased. The leader must give him face in the future, and he can no longer insist on having his own way and monopolizing power.
The two of them thought of their own situation again. Although they had no worries in practicing, they were no different from Shi Weihan's puppets.
Luo Yan looked at the two people leaving, his eyes flashing, then he turned around and smiled at Lin Mu: "Your Earth-faced Shield has been destroyed. Bring it to me to see if it can be refined again."
Lin Mu was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly took out the Tulin Shield from his storage bag and handed it to Luo Yan.
Luo Yan took the Tulin Shield and looked at it, silently.
The entire shield was riddled with holes, and it was too horrible to look at.
After a long while, Luo Yan sighed: "The material used in this shield is excellent. It is refined from thousand-year-old silica sand. Millennium-old silica sand is hard to come by, and its grade has reached the lower level of the spiritual level. But unfortunately, the person who made it is... It seems that the combination is not good, and the effect of the thousand-year silica sand cannot be fully exerted. The formation in this shield has been completely destroyed by the sword skill Xiaoxiang Muyu, and it can only be refined again. "
Lin Mu hurriedly asked: "Is it still possible to restore it to the original state?"
Luo Yan smiled and nodded: "Of course you can. I remember that there are two kilograms of star-sinking blue copper ingots in the door. They were refined with thousand-year-old silica sand and engraved with several fourth-grade defensive formations. The defense power is at least the previous five. Times! If we meet Xiaoxiang Muyu again, we will be able to resist it."
Lin Mu was overjoyed. If he could really repair the Tu Lin Shield, he would save at least 80,000 low-grade spiritual stones.
The 600,000 pieces of low-grade spiritual stones owed to Guyun before were already a heavy debt. If he spent tens of thousands more spiritual stones to purchase another defensive magic weapon, it would probably be even more difficult for him to afford it given his current weak net worth.
With just a few words from Elder Luo Yan, not only could he repair the Tu Lin Shield, but he could also increase the Tu Lin Shield's defense power by five times!
What a happy event indeed!
Luo Yan is good at refining weapons and is also a disciple of Tianzhu Zhenren. He is a master in refining weapons.
Lin Mu still feels that the Five Elements Ring is unbelievable, and many of its magical functions have not yet been used. Although Luo Yan's weapon refining skills are not as good as those of Tianzhu Zhenren, he is still more than enough to refine a top-quality magical weapon.
If Tulindun can be restored, Lin Mu will gain both fame and fortune from this fight, without suffering any loss at all.
The only regret is that the Shadowless Needle has turned into powder and is completely scrapped.
The Deadly Shadowless Needle has always been a secret trump card of Lin Mu. He has reversed the situation and turned defeat into victory many times at the most dangerous moments.
Now it was easily destroyed by Shi Weihan, which was really a big loss.
Shi Weihan's behavior made Lin Mu look down upon him, and the Jindan cultivators actually did it secretly, which was extremely sinister.
Luo Yan took the broken Earth Shield and said with a smile: "The competition will last for more than half a month, just leave the stone here. Just come with me and I will help you refine the Earth Shield. You can also watch and learn. One or two. The art of weapon refining is profound and profound. If you learn it, you will benefit a lot."
Lin Mu looked happy and hurriedly agreed.
After turning around and telling Shi Shi, Lin Mu left with Luo Yan at ease.
