The Cold Star Sect is one of the four major sects in the southern country, and today is the triennial disciple acceptance ceremony of the Cold Star Sect.

The cold mountain is majestic and tall, and at a glance, you can only see the ancient trees towering to the sky but not the specific scene, giving people a sense of mystery. There is a mountaineering road in the east, west, north and south of Hanshan, and the mountain road that is usually rarely visited is full of people at the moment.

Among them, there are young people from nearby towns, as well as sons of families in the city, and even young masters of noble and wealthy families in the southern country, all of whom came for the Hanxing Sect's apprenticeship ceremony.

Most of the people who have no background come alone, and those who have small assets in the family are accompanied by one or two servants, and those teenagers from big forces are riding in chariots and horses, surrounded by young maids on the left and right, and there are strong people accompanying them.

To the east, dozens of carriages were slowly moving forward on the road, and a huge building car pulled by a four-headed fire beast with a purple gold spirit wood as the body was the most amazing. The car is four times the size of an ordinary house, and the exquisite carvings and intricate arrangement on it are even more staggering, in short, you can see at a glance that the value of the car is very high. The young people in the small town who had never seen the world were stunned for a while, and the sons of the family who had a little insight were shocked in their hearts, because the fire lin pulling the cart was the symbol of the southern royal family.

There were several figures standing in front of the railing on the car, and standing in the front were an old man and two young people, a young man and a young girl.

"I heard that the first true inheritance of the Cold Star Sect has broken through to the rare nine-layer void, and the inner gate is a well-deserved senior sister." The young man in a purple brocade robe on the upstairs said to the girl next to him.

"So what, Brother Prince and Sister Xi are also in this realm." The girl on the side responded.

"Yes, the three of them are all one of the top ten powerhouses of the young generation in the southern country, and I don't know who is stronger." The boy said again.

"Of course, our royal family is stronger, the four major sects in the southern country can only compete with my royal family together, and that senior sister must be weaker." The girl said as a matter of course.

The young man didn't respond, and the old man on the side spoke, "Thirteenth princess, this is a bad word. In the territory of the Eastern Territory, our southern country is indeed the number one force deservedly, but the four major sects should not be underestimated. The four sects have also produced strong people in the past dynasties, and now the four top ten strong sects in the East Earth occupy a total of four seats, and we have four seats in the south, and two are in the rivers and lakes. It can be seen that the four sects have a deep heritage, which is also the reason why members of the royal family worship each sect every year. After speaking, the old man stroked his beard, looked at the towering cold mountain in front of him, and then said: "Among the four sects, this Cold Star Sect is the most unfathomable, and it has been more than 10,000 years since our Southern Kingdom, but this sect was established before our Southern Kingdom." After saying that, all three stopped talking, and the atmosphere fell silent.

To the north, on this road, there are mostly teenagers from ordinary people's families, with the hope of becoming a strong man, slowly climbing the mountain. One of the teenagers seemed a little out of place, and it seemed inaccurate to say that he was a teenager, because he was older than the teenagers around him.

Lin Qianye was occasionally a little confused, since he woke up a year ago, he inexplicably found himself in a strange mountain forest, and after calming down for a while, he felt that something was wrong again. Because he had forgotten where his home was, he had no memory of his past, only his name and age and other basic information. Oh, by the way, remember the bead that occasionally revealed a touch of blue color around his neck, Lin Qianye looked down at it and thought.

The territory under the jurisdiction of the southern kingdom is divided into nine prefectures, and the Hanxing Sect is located in the southwest of the southern kingdom, in the Haoran Mansion. Coincidentally, the place where Lin Qianye woke up was in Haoran Mansion, and it was not far from Hanshan. This year, he has been living in a small town near Hanshan, and this year coincides with the acceptance of disciples by the Cold Star Sect, after Lin Qianye heard about it, he decided to come and take a look, planning to explore his origin by the way. Lin Qianye looked at the towering ancient trees around him, on which there were small monkeys playing, flocks of birds, full of life, and then gathered his mind and continued to move forward.

Humans, demons and alien spirits coexist on the Houtu continent, 30,000 years ago, the demon clan wanted to dominate the Houtu, the human race and the alien spirits joined hands to resist the demon clan, the history of that war was called the rebellion of the Houtu, the three clans fought intermittently for decades, and finally the human race and the alien spirit repelled the demon clan and forced it back to the southern wilderness. The demon race and the human race can practice the same, and at the same time the physique is far superior to the human race, so the battle of the human race and the alien spirit although the demon race repelled the demon race, but they themselves are also heavy losses, that battle, the demon god of the demon race was sealed, the seven demon emperors died and disappeared, and the holy spirit of the human race also fell one after another after that war, and then tens of thousands of years of the three races of the human demon and the strange spirit have never produced the Holy Spirit, so the people of later generations will call that period of war history the year of the Holy Fall. And before the fall of those holy spirits, because they were worried about the future of the human race, it could be expected that the demon race would definitely make a comeback, in order to improve the strength of the human race, so the holy spirits created the book "The Recipe for the Derivation of All Things", and implemented it among the ordinary people of the human race, so that everyone has the opportunity to practice, in order to let the human race give birth to more strong people. However, the realm exercises after that are not for everyone to practice, but in the hands of the major forces, some of them have the latter realm, and some have the latter two realms, all of which are closely related to the strength of the forces. And the quality of the exercises is also high and low, and practicing the best exercises can make the practitioner stronger in the same realm, have a deeper foundation, and go further on the path of cultivation. And the Hanshan Sect, as one of the four major sects in the southern kingdom of the first overlord of the Eastern Soil, naturally there is no shortage of exercises that reflect each other in the later realms, and the quality is naturally superior, which is also a place that countless teenagers who have set foot on the cultivation flock to.

The name of the first realm of cultivation is called Red Dust, and the Qi of the Red Dust Realm is practiced, and the qi that is commonly practiced before the sixth layer is the "Qi Derivation Technique", and the qi derived before the seventh layer is only circulating in the body, so the cultivators before the seventh layer are only a little longer in qi and slightly stronger in body than ordinary people. And after reaching the seventh layer, cultivators will usher in a qualitative change, that is, the aura will be released, and the combat power will directly rise to a level.

The qi that different people manifest in the seventh layer is different, and at the same time, there are also high and low qi, and what qi is cultivated is related to each person's qualifications.

Halfway up the Cold Mountain, there is a huge square that can accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time. In recent decades, the apprenticeship test has been held here, and many teenagers have been here, and there is a lot of noise.

"Hey, have you heard, it is said that this apprentice collection meeting, Chen Jun, the son of the city lord of Qingshui City, is also here," someone said.

"Heh, who doesn't know that the cultivation genius of Qingshui City, Chen Jun, has already cultivated to the sixth layer of the Red Dust Realm at the age of sixteen" Someone took over the conversation.

"What is the sixth layer of the fifteen-year-old Red Dust Realm, I heard that the genius girl of the younger generation of the Su family in the neighboring city also came, and she also cultivated to the sixth layer, and she is only fifteen years old," someone else said.

"Don't say it, there are a lot of geniuses and heroes coming to this apprenticeship conference, and in the surrounding cities, as long as there are qualified teenagers, almost all of them come, and there are even people from other prefectures." The man who spoke first said again.

At this time, Lin Qianye had also arrived, but Lin Qianye had no acquaintances here, and he looked a little lonely alone, and he didn't talk to anyone, just listening to the words of the people next to him.

"Xiao Shi, I don't know if I can become an outer disciple of the Cold Mountain Sect, although I am already at the sixth layer of the Red Dust Realm, but I am already eighteen years old this year" A sturdy young man said to a petite girl beside him, "Brother Da Shui, I believe you will definitely be able to" The girl responded.

Poof, and then there was a burst of laughter next to him, and among a group of young men in brocade clothes not far away, a person who seemed to be the leader said, "The big man is quite self-aware, the conditions for accepting apprentices in the Hanshan Sect are different every time, let's just say the first two times, one is for teenagers under the age of thirteen who practice qi fourfold, and one is only for those under the age of sixteen who practice qi sixfold, do you think you can do it?" The young man shook his head.

The young man called Brother Da Shui lowered his head silently, but the girl next to him glared at the group of young people angrily.

At this time, there was a commotion in the crowd in the square.

A huge building cart pulled by four hideous beasts came to this place, there were an old man and two young standing in the front of the building car, the old man squinted, his hand stroked his beard, the young and the girl all looked arrogant, giving people a sense of superiority, and there were a group of guards standing behind them. In short, the teenagers in the square knew that this group of people should not be provoked.

On the east side of the square, on a luxurious carriage, someone lifted the curtain with his hand, "Sure enough, the southern royal family worships the four major sects every year. A cold voice sounded in the carriage.

To the south of the square, there was an equally luxurious carriage. A young man in a brocade robe walked out, the young man had red lips and white teeth, and the white jade around his waist was a bundle, which showed that he was by no means a child of an ordinary family. "Every year, the sects accept disciples, and there are large and small forces in the empire who send people to participate, this year, the Cold Star Sect is the most lively, except for the people of the imperial family, three of the seven god generals have sent people to come." The boy thought to himself.

Suddenly, the old man in the car said to the young man beside him, "Your Highness, here you are." ”

To the east of the square, the luxury carriage, a middle-aged man in black driving, said, "Miss, the people from the Cold Star Sect have arrived. In the square, beside those young people from big forces, the strong men who accompanied the escort all felt something for a while.

Lin Qianye raised up, looked at the high platform in the north, and said silently in his heart, "It's here." ”

"Quiet", suddenly three figures appeared on the high platform in front of the square, and the sound spread throughout the square, and the originally noisy crowd quickly quieted down, and this voice was the middle-aged man in the middle said, the middle-aged man was wearing a black long coat, and the clothes were embroidered with exquisite patterns, among which a cold pine was embroidered on the sleeves, and his face was serious. To his right stood an old man, with white hair and beard, and at this moment he was stroking his hair, with a little smile in his eyes, giving people a sense of kindness, just like an ordinary old man. There is also a woman, with a veil on her face, you can't see her real appearance, and the color of her clothes is different from the two next to her, the same pattern is purple, although you can't see the woman's face, but it doesn't prevent you from seeing the others. The woman is tall, and at the same time a pair of eyes are extremely moving, it is the kind that can like a person only with a pair of eyes, all the teenagers feel that this sister should not be very old, if you take off the veil, it must be a beauty who has captivated the country and the city.

"Everyone listen, the three of us are the outer gate elders of the Hanshan Sect, I am the memorial, and next to me are Yue You and Su Yu, and then the three of us will test you separately, and those who pass can enter the outer gate of my Hanshan Sect" The black-clothed middle-aged memorial in the center said expressionlessly.

"Ahem, the old man also said a few words" At this time, the old man next to the memorial said, and at the same time turned his head to look at the memorial, and said in his heart, it is really the same as the rumors say, it is not close to people, it is simply direct. "I believe that all young people have a basic understanding of cultivation, and I will briefly tell you about it, the first realm of cultivation, called the Red Dust Realm, this realm of qi cultivation, there is almost no distinction between superior and inferior before the sixth layer of this realm, because everyone practices the "Derivative Qi Formula", and the first six layers are only accumulating true qi, but when they reach the seventh layer, they begin to be different, which is the first watershed on the path of cultivation. After reaching the sixth layer, you need to perceive the heaven and earth, so that your qi is "spiritual", and only after you have a spirit can you release your true qi, and my Hanshan Sect has a holy place that can make the cultivators feel the spirit more efficiently, and it is even possible to feel the king of the qi, the source qi, which must be the reason why you trekked through mountains and rivers to participate in our Cold Star Sect's disciple acceptance ceremony. After the old man finished speaking, he turned his head and nodded to the middle-aged man next to him.

The middle-aged man's eyes swept the surroundings below, and he said in a faint voice, "During the test, the entourage must not intervene secretly, if someone secretly sees it as provoking my Hanshan Sect, don't blame me Ji for being unkind." After finishing speaking, his eyes focused on a few places in the square.

The old man in the carriage sighed and said: "This commemoration is stronger than three years ago, when he was in a draw with the nineteenth worship of our southern kingdom at the Eastern Earth Wind and Cloud Conference, and now looking at this weather, I am afraid that he has already entered the sea from the mountain, and the mountain realm has risen to the sea realm, if it weren't for his temper being too stinky, he would have been one of the high-level of the Hanshan Sect a long time ago." Two Highnesses, go. After speaking, he looked at the sky in the distance, as if he was remembering.

The boy nodded and stepped out of the carriage. Similar scenes also happened in different places in the square, and the strong men in the big forces were telling the younger generations.

At this time, the old man on the high platform spoke again, "If there is no problem, then this year's Hanshan Sect disciple acceptance test will start now." ”

When the teenagers in the square heard this, their expressions were all grim, and they looked like they were facing a great enemy.

After a while, a breeze blew, and there seemed to be no movement in the square, and many teenagers wondered in their minds, looking at the three people standing still on the high platform, what kind of test is this?

"Huh?, the air seems to be getting heavier." Lin Qianye felt the surroundings for a while, and said in his heart.

Gradually, some people began to notice the anomaly, and after a quarter of an hour, the air seemed to turn into a liquid, and everyone clearly felt a kind of pressure, as if it was about to crush the person.

The pressure continued to increase, and after an hour, every teenager in the square gritted their teeth and insisted on not falling, and around those teenagers who were still standing, there were also many people who were overwhelmed and sat on the ground.

Lin Qianye felt the pressure on his body, as if he didn't feel anything..., after thinking about it, he also made a look of being under heavy pressure, but gritted his teeth and insisted that I hadn't fallen down yet.

Three hours later, there were less than a thousand of the thousands of teenagers still standing in the square. At this time, the expressionless middle-aged man who was standing spoke, "Okay, those who are still standing now have passed the first test, and those who have fallen to the ground can go home before it is too late." Next, it was tested by Elder Su Yu. ”

Either openly or secretly, the strong men who accompanied them looked very relaxed throughout the test, because the teenagers who were born in big forces have not lacked elixirs to temper their bodies since they were children, and they have even taken heavenly treasures, and their physical strength is much better than that of ordinary people.

The thousands of teenagers who were still standing in the square suddenly felt a lightness on their bodies, their bodies trembled slightly, and they took a deep breath, ready to meet the next test.

Lin Qianye looked at the scene of the people around him, and secretly imitated it, took a deep breath, and slowly spit it out, giving people a feeling of exhaustion.

The masked woman on the high platform spoke, "Now it's up to me to start the second test." When the words fell, I didn't see any movement in her hands, and she still stood there coldly.

A breeze blew in the square, blowing the ends of Lin Qianye's hair, and she seemed to say that the test had begun? Lin Qianye thought, but there didn't seem to be any change.

After a while, the scene in front of Lin Qianye's eyes changed.

Lin Qianye found herself in an unfamiliar room, and in front of her was an equally unfamiliar bed. As if remembering something, I looked at my chest, well, the blue beads were still there.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open from the outside, "Husband, are you awake, do you feel better?" ”

Lin Qianye turned her head when she heard the voice, and her first reaction was that this woman was so beautiful. What caught her eye was a woman in a white dress, with a delicate face, a beautiful and unparalleled beauty, a little playful eyes, and a sense of cuteness, even if she was wearing coarse linen clothes, it was difficult to hide her delicate figure.

"May I ask this girl, who are you?, why do you call me husband, I obviously don't recognize you." Lin Qianye said.

"Husband, why did you wake up sick and even forget about the slave family, Jiang Langzhong in the town said that you just accidentally contracted the wind and cold ......." The woman burst into tears.

Lin Qianye was silent, what is going on?, why did you suddenly come here?.

"May I ask what kind of place is this?" Lin Qianye looked at the woman in front of him and asked.

"Husband, this is Qingshan Town, where we grew up." The woman blinked and replied, as if she was a little puzzled that Lin Qianye would ask this kind of question.

Qingshan Town, it seems that there seems to be such a small town around the foot of Hanshan Mountain. Lin Qianye said in her heart, "That girl has ever heard that there is a cold mountain near here, and there is a Cold Star Sect on the mountain. ”

"No, the lively place nearby is Mingcheng a hundred miles away. Husband, you and I are both from this town, and we have been childhood sweethearts since we were children. Marriages have also been set since childhood, and then my husband died, and my mother was depressed all day long, and soon after I also went with my father, and then I married into your family, and not long ago my father-in-law went to visit relatives at my mother's house with my mother-in-law. The two of us were the only ones left at home, and my husband had accidentally contracted the wind chill the night before, and then he woke up now. The woman noticed that Lin Qianye didn't seem to be very clear, so she said more.

Lin Qianye lowered his head, speechless in his heart, "Then can I go out for a walk?" Lin Qianye asked.

"Of course you can, husband, but wait for me, I'll go with you, and go to the river to do laundry by the way." The woman replied.

After a while, Lin Qianye went out with the woman in front of him who called herself her husband, and Lin Qianye also knew the woman's name, Su Miao.

Lin Qianye and Su Miaomiao walked on the side of the street, walking in the alley, relaxing physically and mentally. Look at the quaint streets around you, the busy people in the town, and a group of children chasing a big yellow dog running by. Suddenly, I thought for no reason, I don't want to pursue my origins, and it seems good to live my life here. After thinking about it, she turned her head to look at the woman next to her, and the woman seemed to feel something, and she also turned her head to look at each other, revealing a smile like a flower. Lin Qianye also smiled, laughing extremely easily and unguardedly.

When they reached the river, the woman put down the tub and began to wash her clothes. Lin Qianye lay on the shore with a piece of grass in his mouth, looking at the white clouds in the sky with a leisurely expression.

For the next few days, Lin Qianye lived with Su Miao. And every night when he went to sleep, Lin Qianye was very tormented, smelling the faint body fragrance of the woman next to him, and couldn't do anything, Lin Qianye was very uncomfortable. It was not the woman who resisted, but she said that her husband had just recovered from a serious illness and was not suitable for sexual intercourse. Lin Qianye didn't say anything, but in his heart he was also resistant to making a gift to a strange woman who had only known him for a few days.

According to the woman, Lin Qianye is the teacher in the school in this town. Lin Qianye, who recovered from illness, went to the school to teach during the day, and went home at night to eat the food cooked by Su Miaomiao, I have to say that the two are becoming more and more like husband and wife.

But this is not true after all, Lin Qianye said to himself.

On this day, Lin Qianye went out after dinner, and before leaving, he took a deep look at the beautiful shadow who was cleaning up the table.

"When you walk out of Qingshan Town, you should be out of the illusion." Lin Qianye thought at the edge of the town. The next moment, he resolutely walked out of the town.

Lin Qianye opened his eyes, and in front of him was the Hanshan Sect's apprentice acceptance square. The apprenticeship test should still be continuing, looking at the teenagers around him with their eyes closed, their brows furrowed and loose, Lin Qianye thought to himself. But my own test seems to be over.

Lin Qianye didn't notice that the masked woman on the high platform looked at him deeply at the moment she struggled for her eyes.

Suddenly, a voice came from the high platform, "This is the end of the apprenticeship test, the teenagers who have not yet regained their consciousness are eliminated, and the awakened teenagers participate in the third test." ”

On the square, there seemed to be an invisible force blowing, and those teenagers who were still addicted to the illusion were like waking up from a dream.

There are whispered sobs, saying that they saw their brother who had been dead for many years, and he couldn't bear to leave in the illusion.

Those who are frustrated are stunned, and they become the champion of the southern country in one fell swoop in the illusion, and they are riding horses in the streets of Sui'an City, and the buildings are full of red sleeves next to them, and they don't want to wake up.

Different people have different illusions, and in the final analysis, they are all aimed at the desires in people's hearts.

The strong men who came with the escort in the square all looked solemn, and they knew better. The Illusionist just now is a master who has cultivated to a high level. Nian Shi is an extremely rare type of monk, but anyone who has achieved cultivation is the best in the same realm, judging from the degree of illusion just now, this is at least a Nian Master of the Mountain and Sea Realm, but it is not clear whether it is the Mountain Realm or the Sea Realm. Naturally, there were also powerhouses of this realm among the people who came to escort them, but none of them dared to guarantee that they would be able to defeat that illusionist, including that Southern Realm Worshipper. And among the three people on the viewing platform, the powerful Nian Master is likely to be the masked woman.

"Now it's up to the old man to start the third test." The old man on the high platform said.

The hearts of the young people in the field sank, compared to the first two tests, this third test must be more difficult, and they were all a little uneasy.

Lin Qianye did the same, looked at the dark blue beads hanging on his chest, and said in his heart, don't be too strange.

"The third test is that those who have passed the first two tests and are under the age of twenty can enter my sect." After speaking, he continued, "Don't feel easy and lucky, after all, the Cold Star Sect has a rule that those who have not stepped into the Void Realm at the age of twenty will be expelled from the sect. Of course, you can also choose to stay and do handymen, and there is still a chance. ”

"Now you have a quarter of an hour to say goodbye, and in a quarter of an hour wait under the high platform." The middle-aged man said.

The two young men and women of the southern royal family returned to the car and said goodbye to the old man, "Grandpa Chang, go back, we are going to enter the Cold Star Sect." One of the girls said.

"Go ahead, practice hard in the Cold Star Sect, and if you have the chance, go back to Sui'an City to have a look, and after joining the sect, you can make more friends with some young geniuses." Chang's surname is enshrined in Huidao.

In the east square, the middle-aged groom said to the girl in front of him, "Going out is not as good as being in the family, there are many strong people in the Cold Star Sect, and some of them are no worse than our god generals, be careful in everything." ”

"Uncle Jiang, don't worry, I will be careful, and I will help me tell my father when I go back, please rest assured, my daughter will be careful." The girl replied.

Things like this happened in all sides of the square, and most of them were teenagers escorted by strong people, listening to the instructions of their elders.

"Alright, the time is up, the teenagers who have passed the test will quickly assemble in front of this place." The old man on the high platform said.

After everyone arrived, they saw the masked woman take out a small red flag, wave her hand, and the young man who passed the test disappeared with the two people beside her.

Seeing this, the teenagers who failed the test looked even more disappointed. Then the boy in the square receded like a tide, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun.

The strong men who came with the escort, acquaintances nodded to each other, and said hello, and then they also went down the mountain separately.

The young people came with longing, some got their wishes and some left disappointed, for those teenagers who successfully entered the Cold Star Sect, maybe the fate of their lives would change.

The triennial Cold Star Sect's Acceptance Ceremony has come to an end.
