You kid! You don't have to be so low-key! !

Changqing found an empty tree again and jumped up with Jiaocang in his arms. This time nothing unexpected happened and Changqing stayed there quietly all night.

On the second day, before dawn, the nearby town became lively. Many families brought their children and lined up in front of the mountain gate early, praying for their ancestors' blessings so that their children could successfully enter the immortal gate.

Changqing sat quietly on the tree without moving, watching the crowd outside the mountain gate in the distance gradually increase.

He shook his head and nodded again. The founding ceremony of the Yuling Sect will last for several days, and even if ten times the number of people come, they can still accommodate them.

Chang Qing shook his head because the Taoist sect had very strict conditions for recruiting people, with spiritual roots and talent for cultivation being the most important. However, spiritual roots were a rare commodity, with one in ten thousand. Furthermore, although the Yuling Sect had quotas for recruiting menial disciples, they had to pass tests to be evaluated, and the quota was limited, with only a few thousand people. There were probably hundreds of thousands of people who wanted to join the sect, so there were too many wolves and too little meat.

Chang Qing nodded because he seemed to see his own shadow among all living beings. If it weren't for this bizarre experience, how could he not be one of the living beings? And was this experience really what he wanted?

Changqing only felt that he was being pushed forward by an invisible hand.

Having experienced these life crises, do I really like this kind of life?

Is this kind of life really worth it?

a long time.

Chang Qing said to himself: "What's the point of complaining? If there really is a mastermind behind this, practice honestly. When you have the strength, you can find the mastermind and beat him up!"

Thinking of this, Changqing felt much better instantly. He took a deep breath, slowly exhaled his dirty thoughts, looked at the rising sun that was beginning to radiate light, and smiled slightly. Who can predict the road ahead?

A sudden realization arose in his heart, and his state of mind was reflected in his body. The surrounding spiritual energy suddenly poured down from the top of Changqing's head, starting from the seed in his sea of ​​consciousness, washing the blood, flesh and meridians throughout his body. Although the spiritual energy had not been refined, for some reason it did not harm any tissue in the body.

He quickly looked for a hiding place and sat down in a wooded area. He asked Jiao Cang to guard the gate for him, closed his eyes slightly, and fell into contemplation.

The spiritual energy roughly expelled impurities from the body's pores, covering the body's surface with an extremely fishy smell. However, the skin covered with dirt was shining with green light and was full of spiritual charm.

Gradually, the momentum of the spiritual energy weakened and no longer flowed in. After completing its task, the spiritual energy in the body rushed to the two extraordinary meridians in front and behind Changqing to open up them. The opening was completed in just an instant.

This was Changqing's first sudden realization, and it didn't take long. Half an hour later, Changqing's tightly closed eyes opened, and a hint of green light appeared in them.

Afterwards, he was a little confused by the two meridians that suddenly appeared. He had worked hard for nearly a year to open up two extraordinary meridians. Now, the two meridians that were opened up in a few breaths made Changqing's efforts seem so ridiculous. Changqing wanted to find a place to cry.

Chang Qing thought of those geniuses. They might have cultivated so fast because of this.

"What is this! Are you kidding me? Hard work is nothing compared to talent!" Chang Qing cursed inwardly, feeling like he was scolding the cook after dinner.

Feeling the two new meridians in the body, the spiritual energy flows freely. Perhaps it is the effect of "cutting the body" during the enlightenment just now. I feel that the blood and spiritual energy flow much more smoothly, making my perception more sensitive.

Changqing's face looked slightly bitter at this moment, and he did not show the joy of having achieved enlightenment at all.

Looking at himself as if he had crawled out of a garbage dump and smelling terrible, Chang Qing mobilized the spiritual power in his body to shake off the dirt. His clothes were no longer wearable, so he had to change back into animal skins.

As for the one that Yu Linglong sewed, um... it's too high-end, I'm afraid I'll get beaten...

It’s better to be a little transparent, it’s safe!

Return to the mountain gate.

By this time the sun had risen, and many disciples of the Yuling Sect had appeared in front of the mountain gate, wearing uniform clothing and standing on both sides. They looked dignified, fully displaying their energy and spirit, which was quite eye-catching.

Because it would last for several days, Changqing was not in a hurry. He wanted to see the process first to be more cautious. He stood in the distance, waiting for the host of Yuling Sect to announce the relevant matters.

Not long after, an old man with white eyebrows, white hair and white beard came flying on a white cloud from not far away. He had a very graceful figure and was dressed in a white silk robe embroidered with white clouds, flowers and birds. It was a bit gaudy, but it did not affect his beauty. He had an ethereal and otherworldly temperament.

The old man slowly descended, the clouds and mist dissipated in all directions, and his white clothes were gently blown by the wind, making him look like an immortal who had descended to earth, causing the people below to exclaim in admiration.

Changqing praised the old man's pretentiousness from a distance, saying he was really good at pretending!

The old man landed and looked at the tens of thousands of admiring eyes below. He felt secretly happy, cleared his throat, and said seriously:

"This is the opening ceremony of our Yuling Sect, which is held every few years. Our Yuling Sect is well-known even among the many sects in the southern part of Lingran Continent. It has been passed down for nearly ten thousand years and has cultivated countless top practitioners."

The old man was bragging about his business and recounting the glorious history of his sect. After a long while, he changed the subject:

"Today is the day to select new disciples. I believe that everyone must have come here for this purpose. Our sect emphasizes understanding, talent and perseverance."

"The assessment for entering the sect will be very strict and divided into three stages."

"The first stage is a test of perseverance, requiring the test takers to climb a high mountain within a specified time. They cannot rely on any external force, but can only reach the top of the mountain with their own strength and perseverance. Only those with firm beliefs and extraordinary perseverance can pass. Those who pass the first level can be accepted as menial disciples, but there are only a few thousand menial disciples available. I hope you will seize the time, as the number of places is limited and will be first come first served.

"The second stage is the spiritual root test. Those who pass this stage need to go to the outer gate square to take the spiritual root test. Only those with spiritual roots can pass this stage. Spiritual roots are a necessary condition to become a cultivator. Those with spiritual roots can enter the outer gate."

"The third stage is a test of comprehension. This stage requires the test takers to answer some difficult questions about cultivation within a specified time. Only those with high comprehension can pass. Although you are still an outer sect disciple after passing this stage, you have the opportunity to be accepted as a personal disciple by the elders, which is incomparable to ordinary outer sect disciples."

"The next assessment will last for three days. Only those who pass the assessment will be qualified to become disciples of the Yuling Sect."

The old man suddenly changed the subject.

"Don't you want to travel freely between heaven and earth? Don't you want to be a savior who exorcises demons and wanders around the world? Don't you want to have a Taoist partner who is as beautiful as a flower and as beautiful as a jade to explore immortality together?"

People outside the mountain gate craned their necks, hope and desire flashing in their eyes. Some had flushed faces, unable to suppress their fantasies, while others had begun to daydream, as if they had already lived that kind of life.

Changqing in the distance twitched his lips and exclaimed in his heart

"What a poisonous chicken soup!"

He looked at the people outside the mountain gate who were caught up in crazy fantasies and shook his head, because he found that only a few hundred people had calm expressions and were not tempted by these words.

The old man raised his lips slightly, and spoke in an impassioned voice:

"So what are you waiting for? Once you enter this door, the trial will officially begin. Your bright future is waving at you not far away!"

The old man pointed at a twisted portal that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Chang Qing was quite familiar with these words. After thinking carefully, wasn't this the line from the advertisement in the previous life? Even the tone was exactly the same, okay! There is also marketing in emotional cultivation!
