After Yang Xiu became a disciple, he naturally stood behind Mo Wen. Ling Yun and Liu Yiyi stood behind Xu Qiuyun. There was only Qianyu behind Zhao Yangtian, who seemed a little lonely in comparison.
"call out!"
A star fell from the sky and landed in front of the mountain gate, transforming into a mysterious star map. The brilliance in the star map bloomed so brightly that everyone could not open their eyes. In an instant, an old figure emerged from the star map.
Get out.
This man has white beard and hair, wrinkles all over his face, and a pale complexion, but there seems to be a sea of stars hidden in his eyes. His gaze is blazing, deep and mysterious. Dressed in simple gray linen clothes, he looks like an inconspicuous old man.
After the old man appeared, the three elders each bowed and saluted: "Master Wan." Only Zhao Yangtian said with a smile: "Xiangxiang, are you out of seclusion?"
As soon as these words came out, the old man's face visibly froze, and the other three elders also looked a little embarrassed. The new disciples didn't know why and couldn't help but snicker.
"Xiangxiang?" Qianyu didn't laugh, but was a little curious that such a energetic old man could have such a feminine title.
"This leader's surname is Wan and his given name is Xiang. In Qianyue Cave, everyone respectfully calls him Leader Wan. Only Elder Zhao dares to call him that." Seeing that Qianyu was a little confused, Ling Yun explained to Qianyu in a low voice.
.
"Elder Zhao, do you still remember that you borrowed a thousand yuan stones from me before I entered the customs?" Wan Xiang asked.
"Uh... well..." Zhao Yangtian smiled coyly and said, "What Master Wan said happened a year ago. How can I still remember..."
"I knew you would deny it." Wan Xiang was already prepared. He took out a piece of paper from the mustard bag and said, "This is the receipt you made when you borrowed the Yuan Stone. It has your signature and fingerprints on it. It's written in black and white. You made it."
What’s the explanation?”
The smile on Zhao Yangtian's face completely froze, and he stopped arguing. Instead, he smiled bitterly and said: "Master Wan, considering that we have such a good relationship, these thousand yuan stones will just..."
"No!" Wan Xiang refused sternly and said, "These thousand yuan stones will be deducted from your salary for the next year."
"Master Wan, can I pay my debts with my own flesh? Don't deduct my salary." Zhao Yangtian frowned.
"Who cares about your meat!"
"Master Wan, after all, we have been brothers in the same sect for decades. As the saying goes, a husband and wife are grateful for a hundred days. Although we are brothers in the same sect, our friendship with each other is deeper than that of a husband and wife..."
"Shameless!" Wan Xiang shouted coldly, "Who is your husband and wife?"
"Master Wan, I will repay the original amount of the Yuanshi that Yang Tian owes." Xu Qiuyun said.
"Forget it, I just wanted to scare Elder Zhao." Wan Xiang's expression softened, and Zhao Yangtian breathed a long sigh of relief, laughed twice, and remained silent.
"My name is Wan Xiang, and I am the elder of Qianyue Cave Heaven. Welcome all the little guys to Qianyue Cave Heaven." Wan Xiang said calmly.
"Who can tell me what cultivation is in your eyes?" Wan Xiang asked.
"Practice is to constantly break through the shackles of the body and pursue a higher and stronger state, in order to become an immortal immortal who can coexist with heaven and earth." Behind the elder holding a white fan, a young man with long blue hair answered confidently.
"The elder's name is Hua Yunfei, and the person who answered the question is named Yi Chen. I heard that he is from the East China Sea and is the strongest among the new disciples this time." Ling Yun whispered in Qianyu's ear.
"Stronger than you?" Qianyu asked.
"I have never fought against him. I only know that his strength is at the second level of the Solid Yuan Realm, and he practices water attribute techniques."
Qianyu's expression changed slightly. Yi Chen was similar in age to him, but his strength was far greater than his, which made him feel pressured.
"Is there any other answer?" Wan Xiang neither denied nor agreed, and continued to ask.
"There are three thousand ways to seek immortality. Each cultivator should find his own "Tao" and practice the "Tao" to the extreme, then he can attain the Tao and become an immortal." Yang Xiu put forward his own opinion.
"Yeah." Wan Xiang nodded slightly and said, "It's a bit close to what I thought. I thought that the word "cultivation" is actually very simple. You think of "cultivation" too complicated."
"Everything in the world can be cultivated. The grass absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and thrives, which is spiritual practice. The monsters absorb the essence of the sun and moon to form humans, which is also spiritual practice. Even mortals, even if they cannot condense the vitality of heaven and earth, work at sunrise and rest at sunset.
, can also be regarded as a kind of practice. But their practice is not in the body, but in the mind."
"Master Wan, the younger generation thinks that cultivators can live longer and stay away from illness, but mortals cannot escape birth, old age, illness, and death, so it cannot be counted as cultivation. They work day and night to survive, and they will eventually turn into a handful of loess. This is the law of the human world.
." Qianyu put forward a different view.
Wan Xiang's eyes stayed on Qian Yu and asked lightly: "What is the law?"
This question stumped Qianyu and he didn't know how to answer.
"The law is a kind of "Tao". It's just that this "Tao" is completely different from the "Tao" pursued by practitioners." After Wan Xiang explained, Qianyu nodded in confusion.
"Among the new disciples this time, there are actually two who have the Five Elements Aperture, one who has the No Aperture, and one who has... the Death Aperture?" Wan Xiang could tell the true and false nature of the new disciples at a glance.
Wuqiao, as the name suggests, the fairy orifice opens automatically when you are born, without the need for external force to open it. The Five Elements Aperture is also called the Divine Aperture, which is divided into five types: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The cultivator with the Divine Aperture is born without aperture, and will be able to open it in the Five Elements.
Occupy a natural advantage in a certain profession. For example, if a practitioner possesses the "water acupoint", practicing water-attribute skills will get twice the result with half the effort.
The absence of apertures is not common, there is only one in ten thousand. The Five Elements Aperture is as rare as the Death Aperture. It is rare to find in a thousand years and only one in billions. However, the Five Elements Aperture is like a powerful weapon for practitioners, but the Death Aperture is not for practitioners.
It's a big disaster.
Yi Chen and Ling Yun have the same physique and both have "water apertures", Yang Xiu has a "no aperture" body, and Qianyu has a "death aperture" body. The other disciples have no abnormality.
Wan Xiang was well-informed and could only admire the emergence of Five Elements Aperture and Wu Qiao. However, when he saw Qianyu's "death aperture" and Qianyu's "death aperture" had been broken, his expression changed.
Obviously changed.
"Little guy, how did you break your "dead orifice"?"
Qianyu hesitated for a moment and glanced at Zhao Yangtian. Zhao Yangtian motioned for him to tell the truth. He said, "Junior accidentally discovered the place where the senior princess died, and by chance learned the method of breaking the "death orifice".
"
"As expected." Wan Xiang sighed meaningfully, "I have always wondered why Elder Zhao made an exception for you this time since he has not accepted a disciple for more than ten years. It turns out it is because of her."
After pondering for a moment, Wan Xiang stopped talking about this topic and announced: "Four elders, take your disciples to get familiar with Qianyue Cave Heaven, and tell them the rules of Qianyue Cave Heaven."
"Master Wan, can I become your disciple?" asked a disciple behind Hua Yunfei.
Wan Xiang smiled calmly and said: "I already have a disciple, and I am planning to practice in seclusion and will not leave seclusion until a year later."
"Little guys, when we meet again in a year, I hope to see your progress." After saying that, the starry sky map appeared again around Wanxiang, and his figure turned into dots of starlight and disappeared into the starry sky map.
Qianyu did not leave because he had an appointment with Liu Yiyi.
"Disciple, why don't you leave?" Zhao Yangtian asked.
Qianyu told Zhao Yangtian the whole story. Zhao Yangtian smiled faintly, walked to Hua Yunfei who was about to leave, and said: "Elder Hua, I have something to ask you for help."
"Please speak." Hua Yunfei was personable and his tone was gentle.
"Two new disciples want to compete in the Spirit Gathering Technique. Elder Hua is a third-grade Spirit Gathering Master and is proficient in the Spirit Gathering Technique, so I would like to ask Elder Hua to be the judge."
"I'm very happy." Hua Yunfei readily agreed. (To be continued)
