Below the cliff is a large flowing river. At this moment, a man in white is standing by the river, staring at the river in a daze.
"As expected of his descendant, he has such a talent for cultivation! He can enter the inner sect with the cultivation of the Body Refining Realm. Our Tianyu Sect has been established for thousands of years, and he is the only inner disciple of the Body Refining Realm.
!If given time, his future will be limitless!"
A happy smile appeared on the face of the man in white, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and he immediately took out a jade talisman from his arms.
"Thirteen years have passed, and Zhou Tianlong has finally grown up! If he knew, he would be very happy!" The man in white thought secretly, and then crushed the jade talisman.
At this moment, in a mountain range tens of thousands of miles away from the Tianyu Empire, there was a person practicing.
The man was sitting cross-legged on the edge of a cliff, or to be more precise, suspended in mid-air on the edge of the cliff, with no support around him. The man's eyes were closed tightly, and endless energy from heaven and earth poured into him crazily.
in the body.
The man looked to be about forty or fifty years old. His face was as red as a flame, and his hair and eyebrows were also red. In addition, the man was wearing a fiery red robe. From a distance, he seemed to be floating.
Similar to a red cloud in mid-air.
The fiery red robe is embroidered with flame patterns, and there is a distinctive pattern on the left and right lapels of the robe. If you look carefully, the pattern on the left is a dark blue sea of stars, like the vast universe.
Generally speaking, the pattern on the right is a shining golden word, which is exactly the word "Li".
Suddenly, the man's eyes opened, and two sword-like sharp rays of light came out of his eyes.
As the man's eyes opened, an aura like an ancient god suddenly emanated from his body. In an instant, the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder thundered, the mountains were blown by strong winds, dust was flying, and in the woods,
Birds flew in panic, and wild beasts fled in all directions. All the monsters in the entire mountain range crawled down, trembling all over. Some low-level monsters even bled from their orifices and died instantly.
"It's him!" The man's face was full of shock: "This is the first time he summoned me in thirteen years! Could it be that something happened to Zhou Tianlong..."
The man suddenly turned pale with shock, slowly closed his eyes, and his body slowly became void, and then disappeared into this space.
Early the next morning, Zhou Tianlong went to the bush again, spent half the morning, and finally collected thirty demon crystals of the red-eyed thunder rabbit, and then returned to the sect.
Arriving at Jia Wu's room in Beizheng Pavilion, Zhou Tianlong presented thirty demon crystals. Jia Wu was immediately overjoyed: "Junior brother Zhou is indeed amazing. More than thirty people from our Liema Gang were not able to capture a red-eyed thunder rabbit.
To think that Junior Brother Zhou could capture thirty red-eyed thunder rabbits by himself!"
Jia Wu knew that with these thirty red-eyed thunder rabbit demon crystals, he could improve his cultivation level by two or three levels. However, the energy contained in these demon crystals was extremely powerful. Without extremely high cultivation level,
, it is also difficult to directly refine the demon crystals of demon beasts, so Jia Wu plans to ask Elder Yuqi tomorrow to let him refine these demon crystals into elixirs to remove the ** energy in the demon crystals and make it more powerful.
Conducive to his refining.
Immediately, Jia Wu raised his hand to Zhou Tianlong: "Thanks to Junior Brother Zhou this time, I, Jia Wu, would like to thank you in advance!"
Zhou Tianlong shook his head and said: "Senior Brother Jia, it doesn't matter whether you thank me or not. It's just something I asked Senior Brother Jia to do. I hope Senior Brother Jia can agree."
Jia Wu immediately nodded: "Don't worry, Junior Brother Zhou. During the three years since Junior Brother Zhou leaves, I will do my best to protect Zheng Fei and the others. No matter which gang in the inner sect wants to harm them,
First we need to see if I, Jia Wu, will agree."
At first, what Jia Wu was worried about was just that others would say that he agreed to protect Zheng Fei and the others because he was threatened by Zhou Tianlong. But now that Zhou Tianlong has given him benefits, Jia Wu does not have to worry about harming himself and the others.
Because of the reputation of the Liema Gang, they naturally agreed to Zhou Tianlong's request without hesitation.
Zhou Tianlong cupped his hands and said, "In that case, thank you so much, Senior Brother Jia!"
With the safety of Zheng Fei's eight people guaranteed, Zhou Tianlong felt as relieved as if a huge stone had fallen to the ground. He immediately told Zheng Fei and the others the good news, but said nothing to them about his plans to go out for training.
carry.
Hearing this, Zheng Fei and the others were also overjoyed. They had been worried about their revenge because they had offended too many gangs in the inner sect. Now that they saw that Zhou Tianlong could actually climb onto the Liema Gang as a big backer, all the troubles were gone.
All will be completely eliminated, and they are naturally very happy in their hearts.
Of course, Zhou Tianlong was vague about how he managed to climb up to the Lie Ma Gang through hard and soft tactics. Firstly, he was afraid that Zheng Fei and the others would be worried, and secondly, he felt that there was no need to tell them. Because in Zhou Tianlong's case,
It seems that these eight people, not to mention Zheng Fei, and the other seven people have long been regarded as his brothers. For the safety of his brothers, it is nothing at all to shed some blood and get injured.
Although Zhou Tianlong didn't say anything, Zheng Fei and the others knew clearly in their hearts that from Zhou Tianlong's serious expression when he left that day, they could guess that Zhou Tianlong's trip must be full of dangers.
More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Zhou Tianlong was practicing the True Dragon Body Tempering Technique. A member of the Liema Gang suddenly pushed in the door and said: "Junior Brother Zhou, several disciples from the gang have come and want to see the nine of you."
!”
Zhou Tianlong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly notified Zheng Fei's eight people, and they came to the meeting hall of Liema Gang. Now, the injuries of Zheng Fei's eight people are basically better, and during this period, because of Lie Ma Gang's
Under the protection of the caravan, neither the Viper Gang, the Sirius Gang, nor the Dire Bear Gang came to trouble them.
However, Zhou Tianlong also knew in his heart that he could hide for a while but not forever. Since they had offended these gangs, although these gangs did not dare to take action for the time being because of the power of the Liema Gang, they would not take action in the future if they were not protected. So.
In Zhou Tianlong's view, the safest way is to improve his strength so that he is not afraid of their revenge. Always relying on the protection of others is not Zhou Tianlong's style.
At this time, Jia Wu was not in the hall, and neither were the other members of the Lie Ma Gang. However, in the center of the hall, there were several inner disciples standing.
"Is it you?" Zhou Tianlong was stunned for a moment. He knew all these people, and they were all disciples of the great elder Yu Feinan. Yu Feinan sent people to invite him three times, so for the disciples of Yu Feinan, Zhou Tianlong also
Know a lot.
"Could it be that the Great Elder wants to call me over again to talk about recruiting disciples?" Zhou Tianlong frowned. After noticing Yu Feinan's ambition last time, Zhou Tianlong no longer had any good ideas about Yu Feinan, and he also felt uncomfortable in his heart.
He was even more determined not to join Yu Feinan's family.
No matter whether Yu Feinan is right or wrong, Zhou Tianlong has a special feeling for the sect leader Yu Dongyang from the bottom of his heart. Because he has no parents, and he is brought by Yu Dongyang to the Tianyu Sect, Yu Dongyang has some kind of special feelings for him.
In a sense, they are like his own parents. No matter who is right or wrong between Yu Dongyang and Yu Feinan, once any conflict occurs, Zhou Tianlong believes that he will stand by Yu Dongyang's side without hesitation.
"But if he wanted to talk to me about apprenticeship, why would he call the elder brother and the others?" Zhou Tianlong was a little confused.
Those disciples all knew Zhou Tianlong, and they all knew that Master valued Zhou Tianlong very much, so they all treated Zhou Tianlong very politely. They all stepped forward and said, "Junior Brother Zhou, we are here to inform you that tomorrow
It’s the day when the new disciples hold the apprenticeship ceremony. I hope the nine of you will rush to the hall on the third floor of Zhongxing Pavilion early tomorrow morning to participate in the apprenticeship ceremony!"
"Apprenticeship ceremony?" Zhou Tianlong was stunned for a moment: "Could it be that the sect master has left seclusion?"
The disciples didn't answer, turned around and left.
Zheng Fei and the other eight were all a little excited at this time. As long as the apprenticeship ceremony was held, they could join the disciples of their favorite elders, begin to accept the elders' guidance, and their cultivation speed would become faster and faster.
Zhou Tianlong was full of doubts at this time. He had heard Liu Yuchen say that the apprenticeship ceremony could not be held when the sect master was absent. Moreover, he was determined to become a disciple of the sect master. If the sect master was not around, then he might not have the chance to become a disciple.
The sect master has left.
At that moment, Zhou Tianlong didn't hesitate at all and hurriedly left Beizheng Pavilion and went to Liu Yuchen's place.
"The apprenticeship ceremony?" Liu Yuchen looked puzzled: "This apprenticeship ceremony is a relatively important ceremony in the inner sect. How come I don't know anything about such a big thing?"
"Besides, the master has not yet left seclusion, so how can he hold an apprenticeship ceremony?" Liu Yuchen was even more puzzled.
"If I guess correctly, this apprenticeship ceremony was held privately by the Great Elder!" Zhou Tianlong said.
"What?" Liu Yuchen was shocked. In the past few days, this great elder had given her a lot of shock.
Zhou Tianlong nodded: "The disciples who came to inform us are all disciples of the great elder. And, since you don't know about it, the great elder must have kept silent about this matter!"
"But why did the Great Elder do this?" Liu Yuchen was a little confused.
Zhou Tianlong frowned and said nothing, thinking secretly in his heart: "The reason why the Great Elder held this apprenticeship ceremony privately is probably because he wanted to take the nine of us under his sect without the other elders knowing about it.
Increase the power of his sect and prepare for him to compete with the sect leader in the future."
Of course, Zhou Tianlong only guessed half of it right. Yu Feinan did this just for him. As for Zheng Fei and the other eight people, Yu Feinan was not very interested in whether they could become his disciple.
Don't care.
At this moment, Zhou Tianlong was also very anxious: the sect leader was still in seclusion, and the great elder insisted on holding an apprenticeship ceremony during this time. What should he do if the great elder insisted on accepting him as a disciple tomorrow?
