Chapter 4: Top-quality spiritual roots
There was such silence in the field that you could hear a pin drop!
The white-robed young man who had scolded him before had a look of disbelief on his face, his eyes filled with jealousy and resentment.
Nangong Yingjunze had a dull look on his face, looking at the beam of light with ghostly eyes.
The leader, Master Yunyin, suddenly stood up and looked up at the sky. His usual majestic expression no longer existed, with a look of shock on his face.
After the strange silence, there was an explosion of discussion in the venue.
"Another Heavenly Spiritual Root! This doesn't allow anyone to live!"
"It's actually a heavenly spiritual root again, but what kind of attribute is this gray spiritual root? How come I've never heard of it?"
"You must be ignorant, gray is an extremely rare space spiritual root!"
"More than a monster, he is simply a beast!!!"
I saw Nangong Yingjun wailing with grief and anger on his face.
Qin Tian had come to his senses after experiencing the initial shock, and his face was even more ecstatic at this moment.
"I didn't expect that I actually have the talent of heavenly spiritual roots. If so, wouldn't my future path to immortality be bright?"
However, Qin Tian could not be happy for long.
I saw that the gray light pillar did not dissipate, but began to change color. In a moment, five colors of gold, green, blue, red, and yellow appeared on it.
For a time, a total of six colors were circulating, which was extremely colorful!
Seeing this situation, the smile on Qin Tian's face instantly froze.
The expression of the young man in white robe slowly recovered, and a sarcastic smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Nangong Yingjun's expression was also very exciting. Apparently things changed too fast and he couldn't react at the moment.
As for everyone in the venue, they started talking instantly:
"I thought this mountain boy had some bad luck, but it turned out to be a miscellaneous spiritual root!"
"Isn't it true? If beggars all have heavenly spiritual roots, then wouldn't the endless demon sea be filled with geniuses!"
"Looking at the number of these spiritual roots, they are really not ordinary miscellaneous spiritual roots, hahahaha..."
"After working on it for a long time, it turned out to be a waste..."
Human nature is like this, it is difficult to accept beings who are better than yourself.
And when they discovered that someone who was originally better than themselves suddenly became worse than themselves, this twisted psychological pleasure of revenge made everyone in the field not hesitate to use humiliating words.
As the sounds of ridicule and ridicule continued, Qin Tian's face gradually turned pale.
From heaven to hell, there is nothing better than this.
The head leader Yunyin Zhenren looked a little disappointed, and secretly said a pity in his heart. Then he sat back down and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
"Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, space, six series of "top-quality" mixed spiritual roots, barely qualified!"
The white-robed disciple holding the precious mirror announced loudly and slightly mockingly.
Even the words "excellent" and "reluctant" are emphasized.
After hearing this, Qin Tian finally came to his senses, his eyes looked slightly gloomy, but he did not do anything extreme.
After a long time, he slowly exhaled a breath and calmed down a little. Then he ignored the strange looks from the audience and walked straight towards the qualified disciples area.
"As long as you can step into the immortal path, even if your talent is a bit lacking, the worst thing you can do is work harder to make up for it in the future! If you give up easily, how can you be worthy of the hardships along the way!"
After going through all kinds of hardships to get here, Qin Tian naturally would not give up easily, and the perseverance he had cultivated for a long time would not allow it, so he could not help but secretly make up his mind.
"I am sorry for your loss."
At this moment, Nangong Yingjun came forward, patted Qin Tian on the shoulder and said "comfort".
The latter rolled his eyes, then ignored the guy and walked to a corner to stand alone.
At this time, the last person in the field, Zeng Aniu, who was also dressed as a beggar, happened to step forward.
As the treasure mirror shined, another five-color light pillar appeared, causing another round of ridicule and ridicule from the audience.
"Five elements mixed spiritual roots, barely qualified!"
When the white-robed disciple made a cold announcement, Zeng Aniu's face instantly turned red, and he walked towards Qin Tian as if he was running away.
In an instant, two beggars stood alone in the corner. This scene naturally aroused laughter from everyone.
Qin Tian has gradually adapted to it, and there is not much difference.
But Zeng Aniu felt a little embarrassed and looked down at the ground.
At this time, everyone in the field has completed the test.
After statistics, it was found that only more than 100 people qualified in the end, which shows the high elimination rate.
Soon, as many of the eliminated people dispersed with disappointed expressions, the venue gradually fell silent.
However, Master Yunyin stood up, faced everyone and said calmly:
"You qualified disciples, those who have cultivated themselves will come forward."
Although everyone was a little confused after hearing the words, they did not dare to disobey, and they had no way to hide in front of the head of Jindan.
Soon, a dozen people came out to stand in a row, and Nangong Yingjun was among them.
Seeing this, Master Yunyin didn't waste any time. He directly pinched out a simple seal with one hand. Suddenly, a white light curtain enveloped more than a dozen people. Then when they saw the light curtain, everyone's eyes instantly became dull.
"What is the purpose of joining our Qianyuan Sect?"
Master Yunyin's majestic voice sounded, and with the blessing of the power of divine consciousness, it penetrated his heart.
"Disciple Nangong Yingjun was forced to come here by the family!"
As Nangong Yingjun unconsciously spoke first, the voices of the remaining people also sounded one after another, and all kinds of reasons were all at once.
He even came for a certain female disciple, which made everyone laugh for a while.
"I was sent by the elders to sneak into the Qianyuan Sect and wait for the opportunity."
As the dark-faced short man opened his mouth with dull eyes and no consciousness, the atmosphere in the place suddenly solidified.
Upon seeing this, Master Yunyin's eyes flashed with a stern look, and then without hesitation, he stretched out his hand and slapped it in the air, shooting out a stream of true energy in the air.
In an instant, the short man's head exploded, and red and white things fell to the ground.
Immortal cultivators are cold-blooded and ruthless, treating human life as nothing, and their ruthlessness is evident!
Seeing this situation, Qin Tian couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and secretly he was even more grateful.
Fortunately, old man Xuan Lie had the foresight and did not pass on his immortal cultivation techniques. Otherwise, if he revealed what Xuan Lie had arranged, the consequences would definitely not be much better.
After all, the Cao family is said to be quite powerful within the Qianyuan Sect.
After a while, as the light curtain gradually dissipated, everyone woke up one after another.
But looking at the headless corpse lying on the ground, everyone obviously knew that they had passed through the gate of hell, so they were all filled with fear.
As for the leader, Master Yunyin, he gave a few instructions to several white-robed disciples, then waved his sleeves and shot out a ray of light, and flew away with that day's spiritual root Wu Xun.
When Yunyin's figure disappeared into the thick fog, the white-robed disciple who had scolded him no longer had any scruples at all.
So a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, he walked slowly towards Qin Tian, and said with a sarcastic tone:
"Waste is waste, and it will only stay at the bottom of the valley for the rest of its life!"
After hearing this, Qin Tian felt resentful in his heart, but he did not show it at all. Instead, he stood there without saying a word.
After all, the white-robed disciple had a good status and was a high-ranking immortal cultivator. It would obviously be unwise to force his way forward at this time.
But seeing that Qin Tian's reaction was dull, the white-robed disciple couldn't help but look more sinister. He immediately took two steps forward and approached, saying in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them:
"Boy, don't worry, your life in the sect won't be too boring in the future!"
After saying this, the young man in white robe winked at the person holding a precious mirror and testing the spiritual roots. Then he turned around and left with his sword in the air.
When Qin Tian saw this, a cold light flashed through his eyes, but he regained his composure in just a moment, and then continued to wait silently.
At this time, the qualified disciples left behind naturally saw some clues and understood that there was some discord between Qin Tian and the white-robed disciple, so they distanced themselves one after another to avoid being harmed by Chi Yu.
Only Zeng Aniu felt nothing, and still looked around blankly, looking like a simple and honest man.
As for Nangong Yingjun, he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly said using the method of transmitting sounds into secrets:
"The white-robed disciple's name is Cao Xu, and he is the young master of the inner sect Cao family. This person has always been narrow-minded and petty. You should be careful if you offend this person!"
Hearing this, Qin Tian frowned slightly at first, and then nodded with gratitude, without making any unnecessary remarks.
.............
At the same time, as the white-robed disciples left one after another, only the person responsible for testing the spiritual roots remained.
"I, Wang Lin, have taken over the sect's mission and am specifically responsible for arranging the residence of new disciples."
After Wang Lin gave a brief introduction, he pointed to the thick fog behind the tall stone monument and continued to introduce in an impatient tone:
"This dense fog is the sect's sect-protecting formation. It's called the fog-hidden water evil formation. It integrates the illusion formation, the killing formation, the trapping formation, and the defense. It's full of murderous intent and unpredictable. Follow me inside. After the formation, remember not to wander around and follow the pace and don’t fall behind, otherwise I can’t guarantee whether your life will be in danger.”
After speaking expressionlessly, Wang Lin didn't pause at all and turned around and walked towards the thick fog.
Seeing this situation, everyone naturally hurriedly followed.
After entering the formation, Qin Tian and others only felt that the surrounding environment suddenly changed, as if they were wrapped in boundless water vapor, and they were completely plunged into darkness.
Before they had gone far, everyone present was already soaked to the skin, as if they had been caught in a heavy rain.
On the other hand, Wang Lin in front of him had a calm look on his face.
Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the water vapor would automatically avoid it after approaching this person.
Seeing this situation, everyone still didn't understand that the clothes Wang Lin was wearing were probably the treasures of the Immortal Family and had the rumored effect of repelling water.
Just one disciple had such a magical method. Everyone couldn't help but look forward to the Qianyuan Sect who was about to arrive. They quickly followed Wang Lin's pace for fear of accidentally falling behind.
After walking for a full cup of tea, everyone felt their eyes suddenly light up. The white mist and water vapor next to them disappeared without a trace in an instant. It was obvious that they had walked out of the range of the formation.
Only when I looked back did I realize that a wall of white mist lay behind everyone, which was quite spectacular.
Everyone couldn't help but secretly marvel at the Immortal Family's methods.
After walking about a hundred feet further, as the view gradually broadened, everyone had reached a huge valley.
The valley is surrounded by lush green mountains, with white mist rising vaguely, making it look like a fairyland on earth. There are also four giant peaks rising to the sky, at least no less than a thousand feet high.
Sometimes there are cranes flying over the clouds, roaring and singing heartily, and there are disciples flying in the sky with swords, their postures are cool, comfortable and calm.
As far as the eye can see, the peaks are shrouded in clouds and mist, giving off a vague aura of mystery.
And in the middle of the four giant peaks, there are also mountains gathering together, and the peaks and ridges are verdant, which can be called extremely majestic. Although it is slightly inferior to the four giant peaks, it can be said that each has its own merits.
But the valley in front of everyone is just one of the mountains in the middle where they gather.
I saw grass growing in the valley, the fragrance of flowers lingering around my nose, and rows of exquisite wooden houses and lofts built against the mountain walls and stone cliffs, making it look like a paradise.
"It is truly a blessed land of immortals!"
Seeing this scene, everyone present couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Just at this moment, Wang Lin's voice suddenly sounded:
"This place is called Huaxiang Valley, and it is where the outer disciples live. There are thousands of inner and outer disciples in the sect, so there are several similar valleys.
Since you are just starting out, you are still the outer disciples. On top of that, there are inner disciples. You will be automatically promoted as soon as your cultivation level improves. "
After speaking concisely and concisely, Wang Lin pointed at Qin Tian and Zeng Aniu again, and said in a commanding tone:
"Except for you, the rest of you will live in the Flower Fragrance Valley from now on. Also, don't blame me for not reminding you, senior brother, that you must go to the Reward Hall within three days to collect the things needed for the entrance of outer disciples and complete the registration for joining the sect. Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Lin didn't wait for anyone's reaction, he called Qin Tian and he turned around and left.
Seeing this situation, the latter had no choice but to keep up, but there was a vague premonition in his heart.
