Shangguan Xing stood next to Ouyang Luo. She was originally talking to Ouyang about her future plans. Suddenly seeing this scene, her voice slowly fell silent.
Then he looked at Wei He in a daze.
She suspected that she had seen the wrong person.
But after repeated confirmation many times, she realized that this was the truth.
"What...what's going on?!".
"What else can happen? The man in your yard before is named Wei He. He is indeed a top genius who can enter the high-level vision like me." Ouyang Luo sneered. Looking at Wei He, his eyes slowly emerged.
Fighting spirit.
He had heard about the other party's record. Before joining the sect, he was able to defeat the Wu Shi sect's two Dingfei Zhenren with one against two.
It's comparable to his record.
Now, I'm afraid it's stronger than before.
He really wanted to know who was stronger, himself or the other party.
"But, the seventh floor...hey." Ouyang Luo suddenly pushed aside the sluggish Shangguan Xing, jumped up, and landed next to Wei He.
call!!
Likewise, the protective power on his body suddenly emerged and swept around him.
Like Wei He, he has also reached the seventh floor!
The two people's eyes met, and they both saw a hint of seriousness in the other's eyes.
"I'll tell you that despite your virtues and abilities, you are qualified to be listed as an inner mountain seed with me." Ouyang Luo grinned, "Now it seems that there are two reasons..."
"..." Wei He glanced at him and was too lazy to pay attention. He looked away and fell on Shao Qingzi.
"Okay, okay!!" Shaoqingzi also didn't expect that these two top geniuses, who were only listed as inner mountain seeds, would reach the seventh level so quickly.
Such qualifications and talents are enough to compare with the direct chief Wan Wenchun.
The crowd around them was boiling, and no matter whether they were direct or external, they couldn't help but make a sound and start shaking.
It took less than a year to reach the seventh level of perfection. With such a talent, even if you go through extreme Zang training, you can challenge Wan Wenchun, the immediate chief.
This time, two seeds appeared in the outer department at once. Together with Wan Wenchun, three people entered the inner mountain in this batch!
Much better than in previous years.
In many cases, there may only be one or two people entering the inner mountain for several consecutive years, but this year there were actually three people, which is considered a big explosion.
"You two, after this is over, you can follow me into the inner mountain and go to the Inexplicable Temple." Shao Qingzi looked at Wei He and Ouyang Luo, and the more he looked at them, the happier he became.
In recent years, the number of people directly connected to the sect has gradually become less and less, while the number of people outside the sect has increased. This outbreak is undoubtedly good news.
He suppressed his thoughts, sent a message to several deacons present, explained some things, and then asked Wei He and Ouyang Luo to return to their positions.
The rest continued with the rest of the competition.
The two of them have shown their seventh-level cultivation. There is no need to compete. They will definitely be able to enter the inner mountain.
But they are not better than others, and the others have to continue.
Wei He returned to his position and saw Liang Huyao staring at him with a burning gaze, but he hesitated to speak.
Then he knew that he was eyeing his position as a strongman.
"Brother Wei..." Liang Huyao said impatiently. "If you have any conditions, just accept it! I will try my best to do what I can!"
"What can Brother Liang give in exchange?" Wei He asked back.
He will not directly give a place just because they live in the same compound and know each other well.
Liang Huyao is too smooth and has a deep and realistic nature, which is different from Zhou Muqing.
Zhou Muqing has been focusing on martial arts all year round. In fact, his personality is simple and easy to master.
But Liang Huyao is different.
This rhetorical question made Liang Huyao calm down. He carefully sorted out what he could give and what Wei He needed.
Just thinking about it again, he couldn't think of any help he could give Wei He.
At this time, Zhou Muqing walked over openly and stood beside Wei He, indicating his position.
If she doesn't make it clear as soon as possible, no one knows what the dirty tricks around her can do.
Wei He glanced at her and said nothing.
It may be enough to find someone who can be used. There is also a position of a strongman, which may be used in exchange for benefits...
After the two seeds of the external department were determined, the subsequent competition was not attractive to Shao Qingzi and other senior officials.
Soon, another hour passed and the assessment was over.
Everyone separated.
However, there were many people gathered around Ouyang Luo and Wei He, most of whom were from foreign factions.
Many of these people didn't say anything, they just came forward silently, bowed, and then handed over a piece of paper they had just written.
These represent the prices that each person can offer.
Ouyang Luo put away the note and looked at Wei He, suddenly feeling familiar.
He looked at Shangguan Xing next to him and saw that her pretty face was pale and her eyes were tense.
"What? Are you worried? Or regretful?"
"But that's right. You are already in the same house as that person. If you are sensible and have a good relationship, you might be able to get the position of a strongman easily like that woman."
Ouyang Luo is just warlike, not stupid. A stupid person can't practice such high martial arts, let alone live to this day. How can he not be able to read the opponent's thoughts?
Shangguan Xing didn't say a word, just clenched her teeth, but continued to show a smile on her face.
"I have no regrets, it was just an accident. In fact, I have already calculated that Brother Ouyang is the most suitable choice for me."
"That's okay." Ouyang Luo said with a smile.
Shangguan Xing smiled back.
Just looking at Zhou Muqing next to Wei He, she felt that she would be lying if she said she didn't regret it.
Only she herself knows what she paid to get a position with Ouyang Luo.
Shao Qingzi looked at this scene with a smile and said nothing.
There is no rule in the door that cannot be exchanged like this.
Besides, being a mere warrior is not a big deal.
After the two of them had collected all the notes, he clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to disperse.
"Let's go. I'll take you to the inner mountain. We'll choose a strongman later. Now let's confirm your identity. After that, you can go in and out of the inner mountain at will."
"Thank you, senior brother." Wei He and Ouyang Luo saluted together.
"Next, you should also consider which branch of the inner mountain you want to worship." Shao Qingzi said with a smile.
The three of them left the martial arts field together, followed the mountain road, and soon arrived at a long mountain climbing step.
Wei He looked up at the mist-shrouded mountains above.
This is another mountain gate in a different location from the ones he has been to before. They are all passages that can go up to the inner mountain.
"Let's go."
Shaoqingzi's feet were a little lower, and the person moved upwards lightly.
Ouyang Luo and Wei He spread out their body skills together, followed closely behind, and quickly climbed up the steps.
The gray-white steps passed quickly beneath them, and the three of them quickly landed on a jade-colored platform surrounded by white mist.
The moment he landed, Wei He suddenly felt his whole body tremble and suddenly looked towards a mountain wall on the right.
The mountain wall is as tall as a person and has an irregular shape, but its surface reflects a gleaming white light, with faintly feminine curves flowing through it, as if it is emitting some kind of strange radiation all the time.
"This is Xuancha Jade. If you want to enter the inner mountain blessed land, you must walk through here. Next time you come up, if you don't walk through here, you will not be able to truly enter the blessed land. Can you remember it?" Shaoqingzi warned.
"Remember it." Wei and He responded quickly.
The three of them walked past Xuancha Jade and walked about ten steps further. The fog in front of them slowly faded and dispersed.
I don’t know when the sky started to get cloudy.
"Follow me." Shao Qingzi said, spreading his body and running forward quickly.
Wei He and Ouyang Luo exchanged glances and followed closely.
After running upward for a few breaths, the sky became darker and darker, and finally an ancient gray-black Taoist temple slowly appeared in front of me.
There were lights flickering in the Taoist temple and figures sitting by the windows.
Shao Qingzi paused, stopped in front of the Taoist temple gate, clasped his fists and spoke forward.
"Three senior sisters, this batch of external seeds have been brought into the inner mountain, please confirm."
"Thank you for your hard work, let the two of them come in." A gentle female voice came from the Taoist temple.
Wei, Ouyang and Luo immediately stepped forward and walked into the Taoist temple gate at Shaoqingzi's signal.
Before entering the door, Wei He looked around.
There was darkness all around.
There were no stars, no moon, nothing in the sky, just darkness.
There is nothing around the Taoist temple, except for the cold mud that can be felt on the ground.
It was pitch black in all directions, and only the light from the lights in the Taoist temple could barely illuminate the ground outside.
Wei He turned around and looked behind him.
The place behind them was obviously where they had just walked, but it was also pitch black and nothing could be seen.
"Come in, Wei He." The gentle female voice came out from the Taoist temple again.
"You don't have super-sensory eyes, so you can't see many things."
Wei He's heart trembled, and various speculations flashed through his mind.
But now, the most important thing is to move forward!
After so many years of wandering, he finally... finally had hope and could truly touch the truth...
Looking up at the mysterious Taoist temple in front of him, Wei He raised his feet and walked inside step by step.
The crisp sound of footsteps was like the only sound in the entire Taoist temple.
Wei He and Ouyang Luo entered the main hall of the Taoist temple one after the other.
In the hall, three figures wearing black robes sat in a triangle shape.
The three people's seats were just in front of Wei He, Ouyang Luo and others who came in slowly.
And the one at the front, at the apex of the triangle, was the blindfolded senior sister Wei He had seen before - Yuandu Zi.
"It's faster than I thought." Yuanduzi smiled slightly and looked at Wei He.
Wei He reacted immediately and understood the identity of the other party, and quickly bowed his head in salute.
"Wei He is a foreigner and has met three masters!"
On the other side, Ouyang Luo also saluted the three of them respectfully.
"Ouyang Luo, a foreigner, has met three masters."
"Wei He, Ouyang Luo, it's time for you to make a choice. Among the three meridians, choose one as your future direction." Bai Hezi on one side chuckled.
"I am of the ghost-headed lineage, and I mainly focus on ever-changing things."
"I belong to the Qianliu lineage, mainly water-cold rapids." Qingmeizi said bluntly.
"I am a mountain lock, and the main thing is thousands of mountains and thousands of locks." Yuanduzi said.
Wei He raised his head and looked carefully at the three people in the main hall in front of him.
The lights around him flickered, and in a daze, he saw a figure shaking on the ground.
The shadows of the three Taoists were vaguely cast on the ground by the lights.
They were three strange and huge black shadows, swaying and squirming on the ground with the light, like living creatures.
Wei He's heart moved. When he lowered his head to consider, he carefully distinguished the shadows of the three people.
Among them, Yuan Duzi's shadow is obviously larger than that of the other two.
Coupled with Yuanduzi's previous action of sending him ointment, he made a decision in his mind.
"I choose the Guishou lineage!" Ouyang Luo on the side was the first to speak out.
"I choose... the Suoshan lineage!" Wei He also said.
hiss....
In an instant.
In the entire main hall, except for Kai Yuanduzi, everyone else was at this moment.
Everything suddenly turned into black smoke and slowly dispersed.
Wei He was startled. He looked up and saw Yuanduzi smiling.
"Don't be nervous, I just blocked your sensory communication with other people. You are still where you are."
"Next, it's time for you to get to know the truth..." Yuandu Zi stood up.
"Originally, your successor should not be me, but you and Ouyang Luo are the most talented people in our sect in recent years, so we will make an exception this time."
Yuan Duzi walked down the steps step by step until he was in front of Wei Heshen.
"Wei He...Have you ever seen the real world?"
She gently stretched out her hand, a hand as flawless as white jade, and placed it in front of Wei He.
"hold my hand."
Wei He looked at this hand, and felt an indescribable palpitation spreading down his chest and throughout his body.
All the strength in his body slowly gathered and emerged unconsciously.
Then.
Reach out….
Extend slowly, little by little.
He looked at his fingers, bit by bit, step by step, gently touching Xiang Yuanduzi's hand.
In comparison, the skin of his fingers was like rough rocks, while Yuanduzi's hands were like the finest flawless white jade.
Snapped.
Suddenly, Yuandu Zi grabbed his hand and held it tightly.
Boom!!!
A loud noise exploded in Wei He's mind.
He was dizzy and exhausted, and there was a sudden sound of lightning and thunder in his ears.
Everything in front of me began to change rapidly, then became blurry, and then became clear again.
Click.
A bolt of lightning exploded outside the Taoist temple, illuminating everything for a moment.
Wei He raised his head suddenly and his pupils suddenly shrank.
