The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 145 Beast King Sect Outer Courtyard

Seeing him act like this, Su Yan just smiled slightly and strode forward.

The man used his luck to stop him and tried to force Su Yan to retreat.

But the next moment, he felt a huge force coming at him, and he staggered and was pushed to the side.

His face looked extremely ugly, and he felt ashamed and angry, and wanted to punch him.

Su Yan simply pressed his hand, grabbed his shoulder, and enveloped him with his aura, restraining him.

"Open your eyes and take a good look."

When the true artistic conception aura was released, the man's face suddenly changed and he didn't dare to move.

Su Yan laughed and strode towards the first echelon.

Although he was walking, each step could cover a distance of two or three meters, and in a blink of an eye he had crossed seven or eight people.

Those people were all geniuses from the eight great families. To be able to obtain the first-class recommendation order, they had to have at least the peak strength of the Yang Yuan Realm. The shadows of their true meaning released blocked Su Yan with their momentum.

Su Yan's body just bumped slightly, and with his steps, he was like a wild beast, breaking the blockades.

He took a step forward and landed on the back of the giant blue horn eagle, becoming the seventh person to climb onto the giant blue horn eagle.

The eyes of the seven people before fell on him, flickering and revealing surprise.

"Eighteen Styles of the Blood Tiger, are you someone Xiang Ge recruited?"

Zhao Dongjian, who was wearing green armor, looked at him and asked.

"I'm fortunate to have received the merit from Senior Xiang Ge."

Zhao Dongjian nodded slightly and hummed: "Xiang Ge has a good eye."

After Su Yan, the first-class recommendation candidates came up one after another and stood firmly. A careful count revealed that there were only more than ninety of them, of whom the children of the eight great families accounted for one-fifth.

Judging from their appearance, most of the remaining people are geniuses from the county towns. Less than one-fourth or one-fifth of the three hundred counties and towns can get a first-class recommendation order.

"One hundred first-class recommendation orders were issued, and ninety-five people actually showed up. That's good, at least ninety percent of them are here. Eleven of them are True Realm warriors, which is pretty good for this class."

Zhao Dongjian glanced at everyone and said, "The second-class recommendation order will find the back of the blue giant horned eagle, and the rest will find a black giant eagle each."

As Zhao Dongjian's voice fell, the second-class recommendation order and the remaining talents moved together and headed towards the blue giant horned eagle and the black-horned giant eagle beside it.

Everyone moved fiercely and competed with each other.

Zhao Dongjian had no intention of keeping everyone waiting for long. Not long after he finished making the arrangements, the leading giant green horned eagle had already spread its wings, and the demon energy stirred up a gust of air.

The powerful airflow even blew some warriors who had not yet gained a firm foothold off the black-horned giant eagle, making them look very embarrassed.

Zhao Dongjian glanced around and snorted coldly: "Waste."

The blue giant horned eagle took off, and the remaining black giant eagles did the same.

In an instant, hundreds of birds flew together, their bodies covering the sky and the sun. The sky was full of huge birds and beasts, which was a spectacular sight.

When the fierce gale came, a thin film of demonic energy condensed on the body of the giant blue horned eagle, isolating the air currents.

But the same is not true for the black-horned giant eagles standing by. Without the protection of the demon energy layer, they have to withstand the impact of the strong wind.

Clouds passed by on the side, and below you could see the mountains and peaks.

The giant blue horn eagle was extremely fast and in a short time it had already covered a distance of hundreds of miles, but the green mountains in front of it were still endless.

The mountain road was winding, and you could vaguely see the official road set up by the Beast King Sect, and a team was marching on it.

Further away, there are vast wilderness and forests.

After about half an hour, we entered three or four hundred miles into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. The spiritual energy became more and more dense, and the peaks became taller and taller, like a long sword rising into the sky.

Suddenly, the clouds and mist were broken by a sword, and the scene became clear.

Fairy mountains and famous rivers come into view, and rays of light linger around the mountain peaks.

There are countless high peaks, shaded by spiritual trees, towering strange rocks, and magnificent buildings stacked one after another. Wild beasts can be seen roaming around, and cranes and leopards come and go.

Everyone was dazzled by the sight. Even the children of the eight great families were shocked when they saw the Beast King Sect with their own eyes.

There is a difference between immortals and mortals. In the martial arts, whether it is body training or true meaning, it is just the realm of mortals.

If one reaches the Danqiao realm, one can live for five hundred years, fly into the sky and hide underground, and has entered the extraordinary realm.

And how could a sect that possessed a large number of Danqiao realm masters not be a martial arts sect?

This was not the first time that Zhao Dong saw these young people who wanted to join the mountain sect look so surprised.

He just waved his hand and controlled the three giant green horned eagles to fall towards the extremely huge square in the middle of the seven largest mountains.

Nine ancient black stone tablets, each a hundred meters long, stand around the altar, encircling it like silent guardian beasts.

The Jiubei Lingtai is several miles long and is built with tens of millions of lapis lazuli blocks. It is extremely wide and can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

The group of blue giant horned eagles and black giant eagles landed, but they only occupied a corner of the nine-stone spiritual platform.

Zhao Dongjian jumped off the back of the giant green horned eagle and landed on the stone platform.

Seeing this, everyone came down and stood up straight.

"Elder Yin, the disciples for this year's assessment have been brought in. There are 95 first-class recommendation orders, 872 second-class recommendation orders, and the remaining 1542 people."

"It's a little less. Dong Jian, please step back."

"As you command, elder."

Zhao Dongjian led his men to ride the giant eagle, drove away all the birds and beasts, and flew into the air.

Su Yan and others looked in the direction of the sound and saw an old Taoist in a green robe, with a white beard and an indifferent look, floating down from the stone tablet in the middle.

On the stone tablet, a black anaconda and a dark green dragon coiled its claws around the pillar, stretched out a huge dragon head, swam its body, and climbed up behind him.

The powerful aura made everyone shudder, and Su Yan also felt a sense of oppression coming towards him.

'Danqiao, not only him, but also the dragon has the strength of the third level!'

"I am the on-duty elder, Yin Mingchen."

Yin Mingchen glanced at the two thousand people and said calmly, "According to the rules of our Beast King Sect, since you have come here, you can learn the entire "Beast Subduing Seal Method." But there are some rules that must be explained in advance."

"The teachings of the seal method are to be passed on only to the person himself. If you pass them on to others, you will bear the consequences yourself. You have seven days to spend in the outer courtyard. After seven days, come here to take the test. Your success or failure is entirely up to you."

A bronze token flew out of Yin Mingchen's hand, and suddenly the nine tablets lit up with brilliant light.

The light gathered above the Nine Stele Spiritual Platform, and then fell like stars from the sky, carrying a mysterious true meaning and merging into everyone's body.

Su Yan only felt a buzzing sound in his soul, and his consciousness had already entered the sea of ​​knowledge. The mysterious sounds in his dantian seemed to turn into golden runes and slowly fell down.

Beast Subduing Seal
When Su Yan heard this voice for the first time, it immediately resonated with the beast-subduing mark he had sensed before.

His mind sank as he continued to comprehend. In just a quarter of an hour, he had fully grasped the Beast Subduing Seal Technique.

Su Yan opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he was shocked as he looked at the magnificent Nine-Stele Spiritual Platform in front of him.

Such a huge spiritual platform is not only not just a decoration, it also contains a power similar to sealing the spirit.

Although he had learned the "Seal Method to Subdue the Beast", this method of perception seemed to skip the process and only let you know the result through perception.

He knew how the Beast Subduing Seal worked, how to practice it, and how to use it.

But the only thing is that it is not easy to teach others. At least it is not easy to do until you reach the highest level and master it thoroughly.

Su Yan's awakening attracted Yin Mingchen's slight gaze, but he only took a second look.

After about an hour, everyone woke up one after another. Those who had gained enlightenment and those who had not yet fully comprehended it were all awakened one by one by the disciples of the Mountain Protection Army.

Yin Mingchen has disappeared again, replaced by Zhao Dongjian.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the outer courtyard."

Before entering the peaks, all outer disciples and servant disciples can only stay in the outer courtyard.

After entering the mountain gate, he no longer rode the giant eagle, but instead rode a cunning ox beast.

They rushed along the mountain paths between the peaks, followed by the disciples of the Mountain Guard Army who led the way, and arrived at several mountain ranges.

Hidden in the trees, there are houses and courtyards in the mountains, large and small, lined up one after another. At a glance, there are no less than one or two thousand houses.

"This is the outer courtyard of Lion Mountain. There are also the outer courtyards of Tiger Mountain and Dragon Mountain. They are all home to outer disciples and servant disciples. There is no difference. You have seven days to live and eat. The servants will guide you and take care of everything."

Zhao Dongjian handed the man over to a few managers, all of whom were true realm warriors. They looked naive, but their strength was not weak.

Following the steward's instructions and guided by the servants, everyone came to the outer courtyards.

Although there is no difference, there are still distinctions between A, B, C, and D.

Su Yan had a first-class recommendation order and had reached the realm of true artistic conception, so it was natural that he was assigned to the first-class courtyard.

There were six other people in the courtyard with him, all of whom were at the True Artistic Realm level of cultivation. They were among the first group of people to board the giant green horn sculpture that day.

"Meeting is fate. I admire your demeanor that day. May I know your name?"

After the servants left, the six people in the courtyard were not in a hurry to return to their rooms.

Among them, a young man in white clothes and holding a sword, with ordinary appearance, bowed and introduced his name to Su Yan. His name was Zhou Tai.

Su Yan raised his eyes slightly and replied, "Su Yan of Yuncang Town."

Several people exchanged names. Among the six people, four were warriors from Nantian City, Qing Tianyi from the Qing family, Ouyang Lingling from the Ouyang family, Zhou Tai from the Zhou family, and Du Rushong from Baibao Pavilion. The remaining two were from the two county towns of Lufeng County and Nanyang County, namely Ni Hai and Zhuo Hao.

After hearing about Su Yan's origins, Ouyang Lingling, Ni Hai, and Zhuo Hao all looked a little puzzled.

Yuncang Town, what an unfamiliar place name. How could such a place produce such a youthful and authentic artistic conception?

Qingtian raised his eyes slightly, curled his lips, and looked cold. He was indeed from a small place.

Only Du Rushong frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then said: "But it is under the jurisdiction of Bailu County?"

"Exactly."

Ouyang Lingling said, "A hero's origins are not judged. Brother Su has been able to stand out from such a place. He will definitely make a name for himself during the assessment and earn a lot of contribution points."

"Contribution point?"

Su Yan narrowed his eyes and showed curiosity. Ni Hai and Zhuo Hao had similar expressions.

Ouyang Lingling smiled slightly, and looked pretty in her green dress.

"Whether it's a first-class recommendation order or no recommendation order, one of the tests can be exchanged for contribution points based on the assessment results. This is considered a favor from the sect, allowing us to exchange them for some sect treasures."

Ni Hai frowned: "You guys in Nantian City don't even know what the assessment is?"

There was thorn in his words, and he was not so close to the warriors of Nantian City.

Du Rushong frowned slightly, and Zhou Tai was also quite displeased.

Ouyang Lingling glanced at him and said in a lighter tone, "Brother Ni, do you have any objections to us?"

Ni Hai was speechless and at a loss for words for a moment.

Qing Tianyi snorted, "Ouyang Lingling, this is a thankless task. Why would I say anything more to such a peasant? Even if I did, I would be the only one to win first place in the assessment."

Ni Hai was so embarrassed after being scolded by Qingtian.

After all, he was still a young man at heart. He was angry and snorted coldly: "It's just that we have the upper hand in terms of resources. When the assessment comes, it's still unknown who will win."

He left in anger, picked a room, pushed the door open and slammed it shut.

Qing Tianyi glanced at him disdainfully, turned around and left without paying attention to Ni Hai's reaction.

Everyone was quite embarrassed for a moment, but Su Yan found it quite interesting.

"Qing Tianyi's temperament is even more arrogant than his sword."

Du Rusong snorted. Ouyang Lingling didn't respond, but simply said, "Brother Qing has always been like this. Please forgive me."

Zhuo Hao took advantage of the situation and asked, "Miss Ouyang, what assessment are you talking about?"

"Refining one's artistic conception is an essential part of the Beast King Sect's multi-year assessments. The first place winner will receive 1,500 contribution points, the second place winner will receive 1,000 contribution points, and the third, fourth, and so on, with contribution points decreasing in order until the tenth place."

Ouyang Lingling did explain some things about the assessment, but the atmosphere was not right and everyone dispersed.

Su Yan returned to his room, a smile on his face, and muttered to himself, "After all, he's a disciple of an aristocratic family. I want to make friends with him, but I also want to find out his secrets. It's quite interesting. These contribution points should be quite valuable."

Although Ouyang Lingling and the others showed their desire to make friends, their identity as being from Nantian City increased their arrogance.

As long as they don't come from other Lingnan prefectures or other large county cities, they may not pose a threat in their eyes.

In the remaining few days, we met many times when going in and out.

Ni Hai completely stopped interacting with these people. Although Su Yan had some communication with him, it was not much.

Everyone was familiarizing themselves with the Beast Subduing Seal, and there were also some booklets and texts titled "Introduction to the Beast King Sect" that the steward had instructed servants to bring.

The name is simple, but what it contains is quite useful. It gives an overview of the affairs of the Seven Peaks and One Valley, and also introduces some of the institutions within the Beast King Sect, such as the Sect Affairs Pavilion, Martial Arts Storage Building, Weapon Refining Building, and Alchemy Building.

The few days of stay in the outer courtyard were not only for a thorough understanding of the "Beast Subduing Seal Method", but also for these assessment disciples to establish a preliminary understanding of the Beast King Sect.

It can be said that the person who designed this process has something.

From the Zongwu Pavilion.

Over the course of seven days, the outer courtyard gradually gained a few more people, all of whom were those who had risked their lives to cross the hundreds of miles of mountain roads, amounting to about one or two hundred people.

When the time came, the disciples of the Mountain Guard came to the outer courtyard of the Beast King Sect again, summoned all the disciples who were taking the test, and went to the Nine Stele Spirit Platform together.

Everyone gathered at the Jiubei Lingtai, and above the Lingtai, another group of people had already arrived there.

There are Danqiao Zhenren of the seven peaks and one valley, as well as sect envoys who are responsible for inspecting the counties and testing young talents.

"You look in good spirits. It seems you've found some good candidates."

Zhao Dongjian saw Xiang Ge, his eyes moved slightly, and he started speaking.

Xiang Ge narrowed his eyes slightly: "How can I compare with you? Lishan County is a wealthy place, and there are many children of the Qing family. You are the one who has selected many talents."

One of them is from Canglong Peak and the other is from Baihu Peak. They are disciples of the same generation and do not get along well with each other.

"Are you envious? It's a pity that you don't have the ability to patrol the entire Kuriyama County."

Xiang Ge snorted coldly: "What a big tone."

Zhao Dongjian shook his head and said calmly: "Don't be arrogant, speak with your strength."

Xiang Ge glanced at him and said, "Oh, how about a bet?"
