The layout of the ice city is quite regular, the square city is divided into two parts: the south city and the north city, the north city is a residential area, the city lord's mansion is also in the north city, the south city is the trading area, in addition to the daily necessities trading area, there is a special trading hall for monks in the south city, the trading hall does not have a unified institutional management, but provides a special trading place for the monks, and the ice city does not have an auction meeting.

When Li Mo and the three of them were wandering around the city, the white-armored guard hurriedly entered the City Lord's Mansion. The current city lord of Ice City is called Meng Jian, a monk in the late stage of the Spiritual Realm, born in the Drift Ice Palace, his cultivation is not high in the palace, but he is good at handling various affairs, so the palace sent him to sit in the Ice City.

Meng Jian was tall and looked extraordinary, at this time he was sitting on the throne of the city lord, his brows were slightly furrowed, and not far in front of him, the white-armored guard stood bowed.

"Zhang Fang, can you see clearly, is it really an elder order?" Meng Jian asked the white-armored guard.

The white-armored guard Zhang Fang nodded and said, "The little one can see it clearly, it is indeed the Elder Order, and it is the token of the Seventh Elder!"

"The token of the Seventh Elder?" Meng Jian's eyes froze, and then he fell into deep thought.

Seeing that the city lord was thinking, Zhang Fang bowed, and then withdrew.

"This matter is very important, and it must be reported to the palace immediately!" A moment later, Meng Jian stood up, and then with a clear whistle, a giant eagle roared, Meng Jian's figure flashed, and he reached the back of the giant eagle, and the giant eagle spread its wings and disappeared.

After about a cup of tea, the giant eagle stopped in front of a large hall, which was built on a mountain peak, and the momentum was magnificent, and three big characters were written on the door of the temple, "Tianshu Palace". Meng Jian got down from the giant eagle and walked towards the main hall, there were two young men in Tsing Yi standing in front of the main hall, and the two young men in Tsing Yi first saluted respectfully when they saw Meng Jian, and then asked, "Senior Brother Meng, do you have something to ask to see your master?"

Meng Jian nodded and said, "I'm tired of the two junior disciples passing it on." The taller young man in green clothes said, "The master happens to be in the hall today, senior brother will wait a while, I will go and pass it on to you!" and then walked towards the hall. The remaining young man in Tsing Yi with a lower head grinned and said, "Senior brother, I haven't seen you for a long time, what interesting things have happened in Bingcheng recently?"

A smile appeared on Meng Jian's face, and he said, "Bingcheng has been fine lately, it's just that it's about to recruit new disciples!"

The young man in Tsing Yi rolled his eyes and said, "That senior brother is busy, why don't I help you?"

Meng Jian glanced at him with a smile and said, "Yun Fei, you want to be lazy again, you and Yun Peng have to cultivate hard, Li Sleeve under Uncle Lu and Wei Xiang under Uncle Mo have both advanced to the middle stage of the Spiritual Realm, you and Yun Peng don't slack off, my Tianshu Hall is the head of the six major halls, you don't want to fall into the name." ”

The young man in Tsing Yi said with a bitter face: "Yun Fei knows, Senior Brother Yun Peng and I must work hard to cultivate and strive to achieve good results in the test at the end of the year!"

Meng Jian nodded with satisfaction, his two junior disciples have excellent qualifications, but they are a little more playful, and they will have to beat and beat often in the future.

At this time, the slightly taller young man in Tsing Yi walked out of the hall and said to Meng Jian: "Senior Brother Meng, the old man will let you go!"

Meng Jian nodded and said, "Trouble Senior Brother Yun Peng!" and then walked towards the hall.

A middle-aged man in the hall sat cross-legged, with a thin appearance and a free bearing, it was Qin Yuan, the head of the seven elders of the Drifting Ice Palace and the hall master of the Tianshu Palace. Qin Yuan is a monk in the late stage of the Pulp Cleansing Realm, the head of the Seven Elders, and the most powerful in the palace.

Meng Jian bowed respectfully, and said, "Disciple see Master!"

Qin Yuan nodded and said, "Jian'er, you ask to see me, but is there something?"

Meng Jian said: "The day of accepting apprentices in the Drift Ice Palace is approaching, and the disciple not long ago found out that a young man with the Elder Order of the Seven Elders had come to apprentice to the master, and he had come to report to the master. ”

"Senior Brother Mu's Elder Order?" Qin Yuan was slightly startled, and then said, "Could it be that the young man is the successor chosen by Senior Brother Mu, has Senior Brother Mu fallen?"

Meng Jian thought for a moment, then hesitated: "According to the guard Zhang Fang, that young man didn't know that the token in his hand was an Elder Order, and mistook it for a Xuanbing Order. ”

Qin Yuan nodded and said, "What is the name of that young man, and how is his cultivation?"

Meng Jian said: "The surname Li is a single name, and the cultivation is in the late stage of the True Yuan Realm. ”

"Li Mo. Qin Yuan read it again, and then fell into deep thought.

Meng Jian thought for a moment and said, "Do you want to report this matter to the other six senior uncles, or bring Li Mo into the palace?"

Qin Yuan sighed lightly and said: "Senior Brother Mu has been away from the palace for nearly a hundred years, and his Kaiyang Palace has been abandoned for a long time, and the resources of the Kaiyang Dynasty have been divided by my six halls, this Li Mo's origin is unknown, his cultivation is too low, and it is not appropriate to enter the palace rashly, and the old man is nowhere to be found, I still see him in person and say, okay, you can retreat!"

Meng Jian answered yes, and then bowed and retreated.

At this time, it was already late at night, and the ice city fell into silence, and the welcome pavilion was even more silent. Li Mo also fell asleep, and the fatigue accumulated after days of rushing seemed to be released at once, and Li Mo slept very deeply. The cold moonlight shone on Li Mo's face, and Li Mo's face changed many expressions, sometimes angry, sometimes happy, sometimes sad and sometimes joyful, as if telling his life.

In front of Li Mo's window stood a middle-aged man in white, with a clear appearance, it was Qin Yuan, the Great Elder of the Drifting Ice Palace.

Qin Yuan looked at the ever-changing look on Li Mo's face, his face showed a bit of understanding, and after a while, with a flick of his right hand, Li Mo's face showed a trace of peace, and he slept even deeper. Qin Yuan's figure flashed and disappeared.

Li Mo seemed to have had a long dream, and the memories of the past few years seemed to be recalled from his mind and replayed, and when he woke up the next day, his head ached faintly, and he was tired like never before. After thinking about it for a long time and not understanding what was going on, Li Mo sat cross-legged and began to cultivate, although he didn't have to take the entrance test, he wouldn't relax his requirements for himself because of this.

Just when Li Mo was practicing, the five elders of the Drifting Ice Palace, that is, the five hall masters, all received a summoning order from the great elder Qin Yuan. There are seven halls under Xu Lingzi, the palace master of the Drift Ice Palace, which are the Tianshu Palace, the hall master Qin Yuan, is the great elder, and the cultivation is in the late stage of the marrow washing realm; the Tianxuan Palace, the hall master Lin Muyan is the second elder, and the cultivation is in the middle of the marrow washing realm; the Tianji Palace, the hall master is the third elder Mu Jianqiu, and the cultivation is the middle stage of the marrow washing realm; the Tianquan Palace, the hall master is the fourth elder Mo Han, and the cultivation is the middle stage of the marrow washing realm; the Yaoguang Palace, the hall master is the fifth elder Lu Jingyu, and the cultivation is in the early stage of the marrow washing realm, the Yuheng Palace, the hall master is the sixth elder Yuan Qingzhou, and the cultivation is in the early stage of the marrow washing realm; the Kaiyang Palace, the hall master is the seventh elder Mu Li, and the cultivation is in the late stage of the opening spirit realm, but the seventh elder Mu Li disappeared after leaving the palace, and the vein of the Kaiyang Palace was temporarily interrupted。

After a while, the five hall masters arrived one after another, gathering in the main hall of the Flowing Ice Palace, the Ice Spirit Palace. As a great elder, Qin Yuan sat on the main seat, and the other five hall masters sat down on both sides. Qin Yuan waved his hand, and the idle people in the hall retreated, leaving only the six hall masters.

Mu Jianqiu, the rough-looking Tianji Hall Master, was more anxious, and as soon as he sat down, he asked, "Senior Brother Qin, what is the matter with summoning me?" The other four elders also had a trace of doubt in their eyes, after all, the six elders hadn't gathered for a long time.

Qin Yuan glanced at everyone and said, "This time I summoned all the junior brothers and sisters, there is indeed something important, yesterday Meng Jian told me that it was a young man named Li Mo who came to the Ice City with the elder order of Senior Brother Mu and wanted to join my Drifting Ice Palace." I personally checked it last night, it was indeed Senior Brother Mu's Elder Order, and I cast a soul dream on Li Mo, and learned that he was indeed the descendant of Senior Brother Mu, and Senior Brother Mu had fallen three years ago!"

"Senior Brother Mu has fallen, who did it!" Lu Jingyu, the master of the Yaoguang Palace, changed his face slightly, and couldn't help but blurt out, he looked no more than thirty, and his appearance was extremely beautiful. Several other hall masters also had their eyes flashing, waiting for Qin Yuan's next words.

Qin Yuan snorted coldly and said: "Luo Li of Luo Tianzong coveted Senior Brother Mu's nameless exercises, and injured Senior Brother Mu with tricks, and then Senior Brother Mu forcibly used secret techniques to destroy Luo Li, and finally died of backlash, before he died, Senior Brother Mu accepted Li Mo as a disciple. ”

"Luo Tianzong is too deceitful, I'm afraid that he won't succeed!" Mu Jianqiu snorted coldly and said.

Yuheng Hall Master Yuan Qingzhou sneered and said, "The palace master has already made a ban, we and other elders are not allowed to leave the Extreme North Ice Field, and Senior Brother Mu will inevitably be taken by others if he goes deep into the land of the Northern Xuan Continent." ”

"Hmph, according to what Senior Brother Yuan said, Senior Brother Mu is to blame?" Mu Jianqiu said coldly, he was impatient and strong, and he had always looked down on Yuan Qingzhou, who had a little bit of energy. Among the seven elders of the Drifting Ice Palace, Qin Yuan, Mu Jianqiu, Lu Jingyu and Mu Li are the personal disciples of the palace master Xu Lingzi, and the other elders are the apprentices of the previous elder, so Qin Yuan and the other four have the closest relationship, and the other three elders consciously walk together.

"Senior Brother Mu is serious, Senior Brother Yuan didn't mean that, but it is also true that Senior Brother Mu violated the precepts in the palace, but the deceased is gone, let's discuss how to deal with the aftermath!" Lin Muyan's calm voice sounded. Lin Muyan was tall and extraordinary, and he was the most prestigious elder besides Qin Yuan.

"Luo Li has been killed by Senior Brother Mu, let's write down the grievances with Luo Tianzong for the time being, the top priority is to discuss Li Mo's problem!" Qin Yuan said.

"What else to discuss, call the kid surnamed Li up for everyone to see, the Kaiyang Hall has been vacant for many years, and it is time to have an owner. Lu Jing said that Mu Li and her are both disciples of the palace master Xu Lingzi, and Mu Li is the youngest among the same sect, and she was very loved by her when she was in the Drifting Ice Palace, and she was also the most concerned about the affairs of Mu Li's death.

Qin Yuan's face showed a slight look of embarrassment, and he said, "Li Mo is still in the True Yuan Realm now!" The elders were speechless for a while.

Yuan Qingzhou sneered and said, "Since this is the case, what else is there to discuss, just bring that kid surnamed Li into the outer door, and make a decision after he opens his spirit." ”

Mu Jianqiu snorted coldly and said, "Since Li Mo holds the Elder Order, he is the elder of my Drifting Ice Palace, how can he be regarded as an ordinary disciple?"

Yuan Qingzhou snorted and said, "In case that kid can't open the spirit, then wouldn't my Drifting Ice Palace have an elder under the spirit opening realm, can he become a laughing stock like Senior Brother Mu?

Mu Jianqiu retorted: "I didn't say that I would immediately give Elder Li Mo the position, but I can't treat him as an ordinary disciple, I can trust Senior Brother Mu's vision!"

"What's wrong with Senior Brother Mu, Senior Brother Mu doesn't have a place where he can't live in the Drifting Ice Palace, Master Yuan should not forget, your Yuheng Palace has taken up a lot of resources belonging to the Kaiyang Palace!" Lu Jingyu couldn't help but sneer.

"That's enough!" Qin Yuan snorted lightly, "What does it look like to quarrel around!" After a pause, Qin Yuan glanced at everyone and continued: " I have a compromise method, everyone listen to it, although Li Mo holds the order of the elder, but his cultivation is really too low, and his age is still young, not suitable for the position of elder immediately, yesterday I saw that he has excellent qualifications, and it is not difficult to open the spirit in the future, let's take it for three years, if Li Mo can open the spirit within three years, I will personally accept him as a disciple, and give him the position of elder after he cultivates enough, if he fails to open the spirit within three years, we will make a decision. In the next three years, you can also observe how his heart is, what do you think?"

Lin Muyan took the lead in nodding and said, "Senior Brother Qin's words are very reasonable, and Junior Brother agrees. ”

Yuan Qingzhou also nodded in agreement, and then Mu Jianqiu and Mo Han also nodded.

Lu Jingyu thought for a while and said, "Little Sister agrees with Senior Brother Qin's method, but the resources that should be given to Kaiyang in the past three years can no longer be distributed to the halls. ”

Qin Yuan said: "There is no problem with this, I believe that all the junior brothers have no opinions!" After saying that, he glanced at Yuan Qingzhou, Yuan Qingzhou smiled and said, "Of course the junior brother has no opinion." ”

Qin Yuan nodded and said, "By the way, in order to make the test more fair, don't tell Li Mo the truth about the token for the time being, and you don't contact him privately, especially Senior Brother Mu and Senior Sister Lu." ”

Lu Jingyu and Mu Jianqiu glanced at each other and nodded helplessly.

Qin Yuan waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's disperse!" Everyone arched their hands and retreated.
