On the ice island.
Fang Xia and Fang Wei were taken to the depths of a mine by a disciple of this sect who was like an overseer, and the two brothers and sisters looked at the ragged and strong miner in front of them, who was as strong as a beggar, and his consciousness came and went back several times on his body, without the slightest fluctuation in mana, just like a mortal.
The strong man took the jade card handed over by the two of them in his hand and played with it for a moment, then raised his head playfully and glanced at the twin siblings, and said, "You two are from Huangli Island?"
Although Fang Xia didn't know why Hu Zhenren gave their brother and sister a jade plaque to a mortal-like figure, she didn't neglect it, but said: "Exactly!"
"Okay, come with me!"
When the strong man heard Fang Xia's answer, he was actually a little excited for some reason, turned around and walked towards the depths of the mine.
Fang Xia and Fang Wei looked at each other, and followed behind the man, but after just taking a few steps, they suddenly found that the mana concentric core space all over their bodies had lost contact, just like a rootless duckweed, and it evaporated cleanly in a moment.
Fang Xia and Fang Wei exclaimed and hurriedly stepped back, only to hear the strong man laughing and saying: "It's all here, where do you want to leave?"
The two intended to parry, but they didn't have the slightest bit of mana, how could they be the opponent of the strong man, and they were knocked to the ground by the strong man one by one.
At this time, the two women next to her turned out of the mine shaft and saw the two people on the ground, one of them smiled and said: "Senior Brother Zhong, how can you knock them unconscious, aren't you afraid that Junior Brother Lu will settle accounts with you in the future?"
The strong man smiled "haha" and said: "The two of them are just candidate disciples that Junior Brother Lu has passed through my hands to test. It's so easy to learn my 'Lingxi Sword', and if you don't give them a long memory, it's okay, the remaining mining task for the last year is settled."
The back mountain of Tianling Mountain
Wang Qi was furious to see an ordinary woodcutter in front of him, the woodcutter seemed to have no primeval fluctuations all over his body, but his eyes were like knives, scraping around his body, leaving him at a loss.
After a long time, his eyes returned from the woodcutter, and a cold voice like metal friction sounded, saying: "Are you Wang Qi?"
Wang Qi was stunned and said: "It's Wang Qi below."
"That's good! ：
The woodcutter left a pole and an axe on the ground and said, "Pick up these things."
Wang Qi hesitated for a moment and asked: "I don't know what this one, well, senior, what are you going to do?"
The woodcutter squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Qi blankly, without speaking.
Wang Qi had no choice but to lean over and pick up the pole and axe on the ground, but at the moment when the pole and axe started, Wang Qi's body seemed to be suddenly imprisoned, Wang Qi was shocked, and hurriedly put the things in his hand still on the ground, but there was still no mana on his body to operate, and the core space seemed to be completely isolated from the bloodline.
Wang Qi suppressed the horror in his heart, looked at the person in front of him coldly, and said, "What did Your Excellency do, why did your cultivation disappear all of a sudden?"
The woodcutter was still expressionless, but there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes, but he said coldly: "Take up your pole and axe, and you will be an honest woodcutter under me for a while."
Looking at the woodcutter who turned to leave, Wang Qi's face changed and he didn't know what he was thinking, but finally picked up the things on the ground and followed.
Before the Dan Pavilion, an alchemy apprentice guarding the gate looked at the cowering disciple in front of him with a contemptuous expression, he had seen too many such people, and it was difficult to practice, many monks in this sect thought about going to the Dan Pavilion to see if they could learn a few hands of alchemy to use to protect themselves, but how could they know where the alchemist was so easy to achieve, the vast majority of people had to meet in the Dan Pavilion to break the blood, and the cultivation resources accumulated over the years or even decades were consumed in an instant, but they couldn't even become an alchemy apprentice, In the end, he could only leave in despair.
Thinking of this, the alchemy apprentice couldn't help but have a few playful lights on his face, coughed, and said, "Boy, what are you doing here, do you know where this place is? This is Dan Pavilion, do you know Dan Ge? You can come in casually?"
The monks who came and went in the Dan Pavilion saw this scene and smiled knowingly, they had seen the scene in front of them many times, the Dan Pavilion had always been very strict in selecting people, and few people could enter the eyes of the Dan Pavilion, but the status of the Dan Pavilion had always been ranked first in the True Spirit Sect, and there were many monks flocking to it at every moment, but ninety-nine of these monks were often taken advantage of the pleasure and returned in failure, and the cultivation resources accumulated over decades were consumed in the blink of an eye, and there were many people, making people want to cry without tears.
The remaining one may be able to practice a few elixirs, but it is extremely difficult to become an alchemist, if it is not to show a certain talent, Dan Ge will do his best to help in cultivation resources, relying only on the efforts of a monk himself, without huge financial resources behind him, he will definitely not be able to bear this kind of consumption.
The alchemy apprentice originally thought that his scolding should be able to scare away the monk in the early stage of hemolysis who had never seen the world in front of him: how many hemolysis stage monks, even the monks of the pill forging period returned in front of the Dan Pavilion, you are a small cultivator in the early stage of hemolysis, directly drink you away for your own good, really wait until you even put the last spirit stone for cultivation in it, then you really want to cry without tears.
For a while, the alchemy apprentice himself had a hint of superiority in his heart, feeling that guarding the gate in the Dan Pavilion was also higher than the other monks of the True Spirit Sect, but there was a hint of fluttering.
However, the scene of the alchemy apprentice's imagination of Xiao Xiu retreating in the early stages of hemolysis did not appear, but he uneasily took out a palm-sized iron plate from his arms, held it in his hand, and dodged his eyes, wanting to hand it over but being at a loss.
In this way, the alchemy apprentice was a little unhappy: the words have been said so clearly, how can this person not give up, look at his lewd appearance, where does he have the transcendent temperament of a monk of the Dan Pavilion, and he is still holding an iron plaque in his hand, well, could it be a token of a senior monk, this one should be more cautious, but such a character generally ends up worse, Dan Ge doesn't care what your identity is, for these monks who have backers behind them, although they are polite on the surface, they still slaughter a lot behind their backs, so that they can retreat in the face of difficulties.
The alchemy apprentice's originally somewhat displeased expression added a touch of mockery, and said: "Why don't you leave yet? Holding a sign in his hand, isn't he the child of a real senior?"
The monk quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is just, it's just a thing handed over to me by Immortal Master Fang Tao, I want to take it to the Dan Pavilion to take a look."
The alchemy apprentice's face was even more mocking: Immortal Chang? This is the name of the True Spirit Sect for some hemolytic period monks, it seems that the so-called monk behind this person is just a hemolytic period monk, Fang Tao? I've never heard of it.
The alchemy apprentice threw the last trace of respect out of the clouds, snatched the iron plaque from the monk's hand, and said, "What is this, bring it to me to see."
The iron sign is quite heavy to start with, and I don't know what it is made of, there is an alchemy furnace carved on the front, under the alchemy furnace is a blazing flame, and the back of the iron plaque is directly engraved with the word "Lu".
"What kind of thing is this?"
The alchemy apprentice couldn't see the reason in his hand, and laughed: "Just take an iron plate and want to sneak into the Dan Pavilion? Where did you come from?"
This is also the usual method used by those alchemy apprentices in the Dan Pavilion to ridicule those monks who think they have some status: Don't you have an identity? Dan Ge's identity is bigger than yours!
The alchemy apprentice looked at the monk whose face was flushed in front of him, curled his lips, the contempt on his face suddenly appeared, and even the interest in ridicule was gone, and he directly threw the iron plate to the ground, not bothering to talk to the person in front of him.
The monk hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch the iron plate, but the alchemy apprentice had expected him to do this, the iron plate contained a dark energy, which directly broke open a connecting mana sent out by the monk, and the iron plate accelerated and fell to the ground.
However, just when the iron plate was about to fall to the ground, a sudden "hey" sound came, and a soft force dissolved the strength on the iron plate in one fell swoop.
Everyone under the Dan Pavilion Gate was stunned at this time, and quickly bowed and saluted, even a few monks who were entering and exiting the door of the Dan Pavilion who looked like they were in the pill forging period, and said in unison: "I have seen Master Tao!"
Master Tao turned a blind eye to the people who were saluting in front of him, looked at the strange color on his face flashed with the iron plaque in his hand, and then turned the iron plaque upside down, and the word "Lu" appeared in front of him.
Master Tao took a breath, and the corners of his eyes jumped a few times, but he quickly calmed down, walked up to the somewhat cramped monk, and said, "Where are you from? What's the name? Who gave you this brand?"
This time, it was the turn of the alchemy apprentice who was just guarding the door, and the cold sweat fell on his face, the fool knew that he had hit the iron plate, that iron plate definitely had a great origin, but he really didn't know it!
Faced with Master Tao's question, the monk's face just now looked even more uneasy, but he still replied in a low voice: "Disciple Tian Yue has seen Master Tao, the disciple is from Huangli Island, this brand is given to the younger generation by Immortal Fang Tao."
Huang Li Dao, this kid is from Huang Li Dao, and there is a word "Lu" behind the iron sign, could it be said, could it be said......
The alchemy apprentice was no longer in a cold sweat, and now he was just experiencing a chill from his heart, trembling all over his body.
"I also have a brand like this."
Master Tao returned the iron plaque to Tian Yue, as if confirming something, the alchemy apprentice was already ashen.
"But yours is much better than mine!"
The alchemy apprentice was already about to cry without tears.
"Come in with me!"
Master Tao said to Tian Yue in front of him.
When he walked up to the alchemy apprentice, Master Tao glanced at the several alchemy apprentices standing at the door expressionlessly, and said in a cold voice: "I don't want to see something like this happen again in the future."
Tian Yue followed Master Tao into the Dan Pavilion, and the alchemy apprentice before sat on the steps in front of the Dan Pavilion door as if he had escaped death, panting heavily, where was there a trace of the temperament of a Dan Pavilion monk on his body?
