Since the city was founded, the first sect recruitment conference held in Kaiyan City ended with the decisive battle between Su Xing and Lu Tianying, and ended with Su Xing's unexpected victory.
On the second day after the conference, news came from the City Lord's Pavilion that three of the top four contestants were selected by the elders of Yuezhao Sect.
And the only one left was naturally Su Xing, who accepted the invitation from Wanjian Clan Chief ** Lingyan on the Fengyuntai.
Su Xing left in a hurry. He did not stay at home for long. He just listened to his father's instructions and then set off to leave.
Before leaving, in addition to Su Yicheng bringing him a lot of money and clothes, he also met Que'er. After not seeing him for several months, the childish look on the girl's face weakened a bit, and then became more serious.
It had a somewhat mature charm. He took Que'er to wander around the city, and after listening to the girl telling him many stories, they parted ways in front of the city gate.
Although the mountain gates of Yuezhao Sect and Wanjian Sect were not far apart, due to the friendship between the two families, the two elders were unwilling to go with the other party. So, they embarked on two different paths.
Heading to the forest mountain road of Wanjian Sect.
The flying snow in early winter has covered the mountain roads with snowflakes. Even today, under the warm sunshine, it is still snowy and windy. Looking around, the mountains are covered with white snow.
On the road, two carriages were driving slowly, one behind the other.
The weather-beaten face of the carriage driver in the back was now red from the cold, but the strength of the whip he wielded in his hand did not diminish at all.
There were three people sitting in the carriage. Zhou Qinghan and Li Feiyao faced the road ahead and sat opposite Su Xing. The three of them were all wearing cotton clothes. They had not yet become warriors and they could still clearly sense the temperature between heaven and earth.
"Now that you and we are disciples of the same sect, you should call us Senior Sister."
In the sedan, Li Feiyao had a cheerful expression on his face and said to Su Xing while waving his pink fists.
"Of course, Senior Sister Zhou, Senior Sister Li." Su Xing was already used to Li Feiyao's weirdness, so he immediately chuckled and responded obediently.
"Junior Brother Su, do you know the two female disciples that Zhou Hongyun took away this time?" Zhou Qinghan's eyebrows frowned habitually when he spoke, and his almond-shaped eyes fell on Su Xing, with a serious look on his face.
"Exactly," Su Xing looked at Zhou Qinghan beside him and continued: "One of them is my sister Su Ying, and the other is the maid Que'er who grew up with me."
Hearing the word "maid", the two girls in front of the boy showed great interest.
After saying that, Su Xing seemed to suddenly remember something, and quickly asked: "By the way, two senior sisters. Que'er told me yesterday that Zhou Hongyun accepted her as his disciple, it seems because of what she is... Innate Yuan Ti
?Have you two senior sisters ever heard of this kind of physique?"
"oh?"
Zhou Qinghan and Li Feiyao opened their mouths slightly, both showing expressions of surprise.
After the two of them glanced at each other, Zhou Qinghan said: "So that's it... the maid named Que'er is actually an innate Yuan Ti. It's no wonder that Yue Zhaozong wants to accept her as a disciple."
She then looked at Su Xing, who was opposite her. Seeing that the young man was still confused, she smiled and said, "There are two types of physiques for martial arts practitioners in the world: innate and acquired. The most common one is acquired Yuan Ti, just like you
Like me, the spiritual root exists in the Dantian, but it cannot actively grow. It requires martial arts disciples to practice their skills and provide vitality."
Hearing this, Su Xing looked strange.
It seems that he does not belong to the Houtian Yuan Ti, after all, he did not even have spiritual roots in the beginning.
"The innate Yuan Ti is a one-of-a-kind physique. Not only do warriors have spiritual roots in their Dantian, but their spiritual roots can actively absorb the vital energy of heaven and earth when the warrior is not practicing meditation. People with this physique
, the speed of cultivation is more than three times faster than ordinary people."
Just as he was talking, Li Feiyao on the side suddenly pointed to the back of his body.
Zhou Qinghan smiled and continued to explain: "The senior sister you saw next to Elder Jiang earlier is the Xiantian Yuan Ti. She entered the martial arts path late, and only successfully tempered her body last year, but now she is already in the Hua Yuan realm.
At the peak, if it weren't for some reasons, she would have been able to break through to the Immortal Realm long ago."
Saying it, the two girls looked at Su Xing's dumbfounded expression with half-smiling smiles.
Just because they remembered the same expressions when they learned the news.
Su Xing's brain had stopped spinning long ago, and his heart was filled with turbulent waves. To advance from the entry level of body tempering to the peak of Huayuan in just one year, what kind of martial arts talent is needed to achieve such speed.
He knew very well that even with the help of the top-level Yuan Formation, it would be difficult for him to keep up with this speed.
A wry smile couldn't help but appear on his face. Sure enough, in the face of real talent, all means are just tricks.
"Then...will Que'er do the same thing?"
A terrible thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
A family maid surpassed all the martial arts geniuses in the entire city in just one year.
Is such a maid... really a maid?
"Next time we meet... I really don't know who has a higher status..."
He said this sentence helplessly, and the young man had a black line on his head. In front of him, Zhou Qinghan covered his mouth and laughed after hearing the words. Li Feiyao didn't care about his image, and laughed so hard that his branches trembled.
In this way, the three of them had a leisurely stroll and learned about each other's stories.
Three days later.
Just hearing two shouts from outside the sedan, the carriage's wheels turned slower and slower, and finally stopped.
Su Xing stretched out his hand to open the door curtain for the two senior sisters, letting them get out of the sedan first, and then followed him out of the sedan.
The first thing we entered was a series of mountains covered with white snow. Among them were several peaks like sharp knives, but the tops of the mountains were covered by layers of white clouds.
Mountains, waves and peaks are layer upon layer.
It seems that everyone has arrived at the destination of this journey.
After bidding farewell to the coachman, the leader, Ling Yan, took out a silver whistle from her arms, put her reddish lips on the whistle and blew gently, and a sweet whistle suddenly jumped into the clouds and spread thousands of miles away.
In a moment, eight or nine white cranes flapped their wings and flew towards the crowd from the clouds in the mountains. After waiting for a few breaths, several cranes landed on the ground around a few people.
Spirit beast!
Su Xing, who observed the crane at close range, immediately recognized the type of crane.
All spiritual creatures in the world are divided into mortal and spiritual beasts. Mortal beasts are very common and live in thousands of forests. However, spiritual beasts mostly live in areas rich in vitality, such as the mountain range in front of them. It would be easy for Su Xing to stay far away.
I can feel the strong vitality rushing towards my face.
"Let's go."
Jiang Lingyan said softly and took the lead to sit on a white crane, followed by everyone.
Su Xing sat on one of the white cranes, flying thousands of miles high in the sky, flying through the clouds and mist, feeling like he was in a fairyland.
After everyone had a cup of tea, the white crane beneath them suddenly chirped a few times and began to slowly fall.
Looking down, Su Xing saw three extremely conspicuous peaks, and next to each peak, there were several less conspicuous hills.
Looking carefully, there are many Sword Sect disciples in yellow robes on each mountain, sitting neatly on futons in the open space, listening carefully to the speech of the teacher standing in front of everyone.
There were many sword-wielding disciples waving their swords in front of the wooden piles in the open space where they practiced. The sword light flashed and countless horrific scratches covered the wooden piles. Immediately afterwards, martial arts boys came forward to replace them with new ones.
wooden stakes for him to practice.
Looking again, he saw a few white cranes flying towards him. There were men and women sitting on the cranes, laughing and chatting. Su Xing knew that they were going down the mountain to do a sect mission.
He couldn't help but sigh that the appearance and life in the sect were very different from those in the family, like two worlds.
When the morning sun emerged from the clouds and mist, and the heart-warming sunshine shone on everyone, there was another crane call, the height dropped, and the white crane slowly flew down on a small mountain peak with everyone.
There were thatched huts stacked on top of this mountain peak, and spacious Taoist temples stood there. They landed in front of one of the Taoist temples.
At the entrance of the Taoist temple, a middle-aged man wearing a yellow robe with a sword at his waist was standing in the middle of two stone lions, waiting for everyone to arrive.
"I've been waiting for a long time."
With a smile on his face, he extended his hand to greet everyone respectfully.
