On How the Phoenix Hanged on the Crooked Neck Tree

Xiao Qinman thought that he would be screened out, but what he didn't expect was that what he was waiting for was not the pain of falling to the ground, but the noise in his ears.

There was a gorgeous golden light in front of him, Xiao Qin opened his eyes cautiously, and saw Qiao Yitong standing on the back of the Golden Crow. The golden light from the Golden Crow shrouded the entire stone platform like a ribbon or mist.

And beside him was a group of outer disciples who were as unknown as himself.

"You have passed the last test. From today onwards, you will be selected as inner disciples." Qiao Yitong smiled.

Xiao Qin looked around, and saw that many people were familiar faces. These people passed the first and second stone platforms with him. There were originally nearly a hundred people, but now there are only thirty or so left up.

"Dare to ask Master Uncle, what about the others?" A disciple asked respectfully.

"Because they were not mentally strong, they were thrown to the bottom by the Golden Crow." Qiao Yitong pointed to a large area that was wailing underneath.

At this time, the elder had already projected the situation of the stone platform on the third floor to everyone.Everyone only saw Qiao Yitong sitting on the back of the Golden Crow, and the golden light from the Golden Crow shrouded all the disciples who came up, and they didn't know what happened. Only then did they realize that just now Qiao Yitong manipulated the Golden Crow to confuse the disciples' thoughts, causing them to fall into a trap. The illusion of the Golden Crow's temptation.

"Senior Brother Qiao is so powerful," said a core disciple, "I heard from the master that this Golden Crow Bird has the powerful ability to psychedelic the enemy, and its own strength is extraordinary. It is an excellent spirit beast. But it is also extremely difficult to control , not only requires the person who controls it to have extraordinary strength, but also to have a good heart, so that he will not be confused by the Golden Crow Bird. Brother Qiao is only 16 years old, but he has already reached such a cultivation level, which really makes me ashamed in my thirties .”

The others didn't know what the Golden Crow Bird was, but they only understood it after hearing the core disciple's popular science, and they all showed envious expressions.

"Not only that, you must know that although a person who has nothing to do with spirit beasts can subdue spirit beasts, it is very difficult for them to obey their orders. Usually, spirit beasts will only obey orders that have signed a bloodline contract with them. Brother Qiao’s Golden Crow Bird was just a random one pulled from the Spirit Beast Garden. Brother Qiao was able to use it to simultaneously control dozens of people jumping onto the stone platform on the third floor, its strength is simply terrifying.” Another core disciple added.

Everyone didn't know what expression to show at this moment.Should it really be "talent first"?

The Creator is never fair, but just because the Creator is unfair to everyone, he is fair to everyone.

Qiao Yitong never cared what other people said about him, but said: "You are already inner disciples, do you want to go one step further and become core disciples?"

These people have just won the victory, so they are naturally high-spirited at this time, and immediately replied: "Yes!"

"Then... get out of the encirclement of this golden crow, and leave this stone platform by yourself!" Just as Qiao Yitong finished speaking, the golden crow uttered a clear and clear cry, and the golden light shot up from its body and went straight to the sky!The eyes of the disciples couldn't stand the strong stimulation, and they couldn't help but shed tears. In their blurred vision, the golden crow soaring beside the stone platform turned into three.Each is dizzyingly fast.They flew quickly beside the stone platform, their trajectories forming a golden circle, and there was no breakthrough at all.

Some disciples stepped forward and wanted to jump directly, but they were slapped back by the golden crow's wings, thrown away high, and landed heavily on the stone platform.

Seeing this, the other disciples tried to gather spiritual energy and attack the Golden Crow, but it was of no use except being pecked by the Golden Crow and running all over the ground.

A disciple wrapped his whole body with spiritual energy, trying to resist the hot flames of the Golden Crow, and rushed out of the encirclement, but his spiritual power was quickly burned by the flames of the Golden Crow. He couldn't stand the scorching air around the Golden Crow at all, so he failed.

During the whole process, Xiao Qin did not act hastily, but just quietly observed his teammates.Seeing his performance, Qiao Yitong nodded secretly.

Just when everyone tried their best to find a way out, Xiao Qin came out.

He began to condense his spiritual power, covering his body layer by layer with as much spiritual power as possible, wrapping himself layer by layer, directly wrapping himself airtight.

"Hey, don't waste your energy in vain. It's useless," said the disciple who had just wrapped himself in spiritual power. "Your spiritual power is no match for this golden bird."

Xiao Qin didn't pay attention to him, and just continued to add layers to himself. After making sufficient preparations, he spotted a moment when the Golden Crow paused, and rushed up quickly!Xiao Qin jumped up and landed straight on Jinwu's back. Jinwu didn't expect that someone would dare to ride on him. After being stunned for a while, he began to fly wildly, trying to throw this daring person from his back to the stone. on stage.

The golden crow kept spinning in the air, flying up and down for a while, and even started to shake, but Xiao Qin firmly nailed to its back.Regardless of his own hands being burned red by the golden crow's feathers.

"Hey, why isn't he afraid of being burned?" someone from the stands asked in a low voice.

"I don't know either. It stands to reason that Wang Bing's cultivation level is higher than his." Wang Bing was the one who just couldn't bear the temperature of the Golden Crow.

"I heard that he was working in the Lingzhi Garden before, and he planted the top-quality anode grass."

"That's no wonder. He must have been used to the high temperature of the anode grass. Taking care of the anode grass is the hardest work. Usually, an experienced senior brother is required to come. Why is it him this year?"

"You don't need to think about it. Who doesn't use free labor? It must be because his senior brother doesn't want to do it. But this year he was lucky, and he even planted the best anode grass, and now he is not afraid of the high temperature because he takes care of the anode grass all the year round. "The speaker couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "This is fate, no one can guess it."

Xiao Qin endured the scorching, his body was covered with sweat at first, and then his whole body was dry, as if roasted by fire. He tried his best to control the direction of the Golden Crow and let it fly away from the stone platform.The Golden Crow was still sane at the beginning, and still remembered the order Qiao Yitong gave him.However, the person on the back kept attacking it with spiritual power, causing it to suffer so much that it didn't know what to do anymore, so it rushed to the ground with it, trying to throw him to death.

Xiao Qin saw the timing, jumped off the Golden Crow's back, rolled twice on the ground, knelt on the ground firmly on one knee, and supported the ground with one hand.The sharp look in his eyes when he raised his head successfully made many female disciples scream.

Seeing this, the Golden Crow wanted to peck this annoying human.But he was summoned back by the sound of Qiao Yitong blowing the jade flute, so he could only cuddle up to him in aggrieved way, singing softly, as if he was complaining.

Qiao Yitong stroked the feathers of the Golden Crow amusedly, and said softly: "It's not your fault, it's because he is too fierce. There are still a bunch of people left to deal with. If you work hard for an hour, it will be over in an hour."

The Golden Crow seemed to understand what he said, and obediently continued with his work.However, after all, with Xiao Qin as an example to take the lead, even though the Golden Crow resisted fiercely, four people rushed out of the stone platform one after another.

The dull drum sounded, and the three-story stone platform slowly fell, returning to a circle on the original Tai Chi Square.At the same time, the spirit stone of the formation dimmed, and the selection contest ended like this.

All the people who were selected as inner disciples and core disciples stood together in two rows, and several inner disciples presented them with exclusive clothes for inner disciples and core disciples under Yixuan's instruction.

"This year's disciple selection meeting is officially over, and the number of selected disciples will be posted on Tai Chi Square one month before," Yi Xuan said in a loud voice, "to inspire everyone. The journey of cultivation is boundless, remember the purpose of your embarking on this road at that time .”

"Yes!" The eyes of the disciples were full of yearning for seeking immortality.

Qiao Yitong completed his task and felt very satisfied.Although the selected disciples still need to receive special training and need someone to teach them their homework and practice, Yixuan is responsible for the follow-up matters, and he doesn't care about it. He still wants to go to the library to find himself body matters.

However, Qiao Yitong's dream is doomed to be shattered.When he was immersed in thousands of books, Laixi came to him and told him a very unfortunate news for him——Qiao Guangyi had left the customs.

The relationship between Qiao Yitong and his cheap father, Qiao Guangyi, was really embarrassing. In order to avoid this kind of embarrassment, Qiao Yitong usually avoided him whenever he could.However, every time Qiao Guangyi leaves the customs, he will definitely test Qiao Yitong's practice, which is also an unavoidable practice.

Qiao Yitong rushed to Qiao Guangyi's execution ground with a strong heart to die.

Because of Qiao Guangyi's long-term retreat, he did not live in his own pavilion, but opened up a cave in Luoye Peak, where he often practiced, as his usual residence.

Falling Leaves Peak is piled with layers of fallen leaves all the year round, people walking on the road seem to step into a layer of fluffy blanket.The tip of the nose smelled the faint smell of leaves rotting in the soil.Qiao Yitong can't tell whether he likes this place or not, sometimes he feels that Qiao Guangyi is like this Fallen Leaf Peak, the mighty mountain is covered with rotten leaves.

Qiao Guangyi's cave is at the top of Luoye Peak, and it is the place with the strongest aura in the entire mountain.

As soon as Qiao Yitong entered, he saw Qiao Guangyi sitting on the stone bed, and Yixuan was standing beside him, listening respectfully to what he said.

"I have seen Master." Qiao Yitong bowed and saluted.

"Well," Qiao Guangyi's dignified eyes swept over his son critically, and he answered in a very indifferent voice, "How is your cultivation recently?"

Straight to the point right from the start?Qiao Yitong thought to herself, I've been busy with various things these days, and I haven't hugged Buddha's feet temporarily, how should I fool it?
