Qingyang Gate, the main peak, inside the Zhenghuang Hall.
At this time, three elders gathered, but Qingyangzi was missing.
After everyone arrived, Zhong Ding asked: "This year's Jingzhe Enlightenment Stone has undergone many changes, and the results are not satisfactory. Moreover, the Sky Stone has been silent, and we don't know when it will revive. There are really not many disciples recruited in our sect, because Awakening There are a lot of good seedlings that have been lost due to the Divine Pill. Those who can survive the backlash of the Awakening Pill, if their qualifications are acceptable, just accept them."
Zhou BuTong and Wei DeDao nodded one after another.
Zhong Ding asked again: "Junior sister, how many of your disciples have survived?"
Ai Ling shook her head and said, "I couldn't survive it."
Zhong Ding nodded, said nothing more, and looked at Wei Dedao who was different from Zhou.
Wei Dedao said: "There are three people left in my sect. Among them is a girl named Yang Xueer. Although her qualifications are average, her mind is quite flexible."
Zhou Tongtong said: "There are two people left in my sect, and one of them is a girl named Zhu Ziling. She has acceptable qualifications and is a stable person who can be cultivated."
Ai Ling raised her eyebrows.
The two people mentioned by Wei Dedao and Zhou Tongtong were both women, and she had heard these two names mentioned by Zeng Xu Mushan.
Before Wu Shi, Xu Mushan had contact with them. If I remember correctly, what these two women Wu Shi received should be the Hanxi Inviting Moon Technique, not the Qingyang Royal Flame Technique.
Zhou Tongtong suddenly turned around and said to Ai Ling: "Junior sister, I have a heartfelt request for my brother. Among the four of us, you are the only one who has mastered Hanxi Inviting the Moon Technique and has the highest attainment. I'm afraid I taught the wrong Ziling. Can you please Are you going to guide me on your behalf?”
Wei Dedao also agreed upon hearing this: "Indeed, my disciple Xue'er also hopes to learn the Han Xi Inviting the Moon Technique, but this aspect is not our strength after all. If we can get the help of our junior sister, we can also add more talents to our Qingyang Sect."
Ai Ling sneered and said: "The two senior brothers have made good plans. You have accepted a good apprentice, but you want me to teach you?"
Wei Dedao and Zhou Butong heard the words and looked at each other. They both saw embarrassment in each other's eyes and didn't know how to answer the question.
The number of Wu Shi this year is much smaller than in previous years, and most of them have lost hope due to the backlash of the Awakening God Pill. However, the disciple they chose, Wu Shi, did not get the Qingyang Royal Flame Technique that they are good at. .
In particular, Zhou BuTong took a step ahead of the Wei Dynasty and took Zhu Ziling under his sect. After Zhu Ziling survived the backlash of the Awakening Pill, he valued her even more.
When Zhu Ziling realized the stone, she had already taken twenty steps. Although she did not shine brightly in front of Gu Chen and Xu Mushan, she was still an unexpected dark horse.
Also acting as a dark horse is Li Daqing, who also realized the Qingyang Royal Flame Technique and is their more ideal disciple.
It's a pity that Li Daqing had a good relationship with Chen Ying and was accepted by Chen Beifeng first.
Even if they have the status of elders, they cannot steal disciples from Li Daqing's sect.
Zhong Ding said: "Junior sister, although you and I have our own masters, we also belong to the Qingyang Sect. In any case, we are cultivating disciples for my Qingyang Sect. As the elder of my Qingyang Sect, I should consider talents for the sect." yes."
Ai Ling half-smiled but looked at Zhong Ding and said, "I heard that the head brother accepted a disciple named Chen Bingbing before Wu Shi. It seems that what Wu Shi got was also the Han Xi Inviting Moon Technique. Senior brother, do you want me to help you too?" Teach disciples?”
Zhong Ding nodded and said: "Nowadays, the world of immortal cultivation is not at peace, and there may be major changes. It is always good for my disciples to have more strength. I am afraid I have to ask my junior sister for this matter."
Ai Ling snorted coldly.
Zhong Ding and the two elders said this at the same time, and she couldn't refuse. As Zhong Ding said, the suspected birth of the Wu Clan put them under a lot of pressure. Now the news has spread to various sects through Qingyang Sect. Various sects have stepped up preparations to deal with possible disasters.
Moreover, this year's Jingzhe Enlightenment Stone, the number of new disciples accepted by Qingyang Sect is much less than in previous years.
"Let them climb Yanlai Peak on their own, and I will teach them."
Hearing this, Zhong Ding and the two elders both smiled.
When Ai Ling said this, she actually agreed.
Climbing a mountain is just a matter of time and effort, even for an ordinary person. Moreover, Yanlai Peak is not a dangerous peak.
Ai Ling would agree mainly because of Xu Mushan's consideration.
These three women knew Xu Mushan, and when they arrived at Yanlai Peak, they could more or less keep Xu Mushan company. At the very least, they could help Xu Mushan recover from the loss of so many junior brothers and sisters.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Ai Ling had other things to do and didn't want to stay any longer.
Zhou Tongtong hurriedly asked: "Junior sister, when can my disciples and the others go to Yanlai Peak?"
Ai Ling left a lukewarm comment: "Let them go climbing on their own, whenever they want."
Before the words left her mouth, Ai Ling had disappeared.
The remaining three people looked at each other in confusion, Zhou BuTong and Wei Dedao smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
Wei Dedao's eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly asked: "Brother, has the child named Gu Chen survived the backlash of the Awakening Pill?"
Zhong Ding shook his head and said: "From the news coming from Donglai Peak, it seems that there is not yet. It seems that there is probably no hope."
Hearing this, Zhou Tongtong immediately shook his head and said, "It's a pity. Looking at the visions he caused when he realized the stone, what he gained was not simple."
Wei Dedao agreed: "Indeed, I just don't know what he got. In my opinion, it is unlikely to be Qingyang Yuyan Jue or Hanxi Yue Jue. At that time, he only walked between the sun and moon stones and did not get close to any stone. , but that location is special, and it’s possible that he obtained these two techniques at the same time.”
Zhong Ding shook his head and said nothing more.
He already knew that what Gu Chen got was neither the Qingyang Yuyan Jue nor the Hanxi Inviting Moon Jue. He had personally confirmed this, but he didn't know what it was.
Feeling the different gazes between Wei Dedao and Zhou, Zhong Ding said lightly: "It is indeed a pity."
After a pause, Zhong Ding continued: "No matter what he gets, no matter how amazing his qualifications are, if he can't survive the backlash of the Awakening Pill, he will be nothing."
Thinking of the state of those who failed to survive the backlash of the Awakening Pill, Wei Dedao and Zhou Tong looked at each other, feeling pity for Gu Chen.
Even though they didn't want Gu Chen to be too outstanding, they had to admit that such a twelve-year-old boy had truly unique aptitude and character. No one among his disciples could match him. He was the best they had ever seen since they started practicing.
Walking out of the Zhenghuang Hall, Wei Dedao stopped at the same pace as Zhou.
Zhou Tongtong suddenly asked: "Senior brother, I have a question. Can you explain it to me?"
Wei Dedao nodded and said, "Junior brother, it doesn't matter if you say so."
Zhou Tongtong said: "The Jingzhe Enlightenment Stone this time is very different from previous years. There have been many changes. There are very few people who have passed the Enlightenment Stone test. But even though they are few, there are some seedlings that are worthy of recognition, but like This girl Yang Xueer..."
Zhou Tongtong paused and then said: "With all due respect, Yang Xueer has nothing outstanding in terms of qualifications or understanding. Why would senior brother take her under his sect?"
Wei Dedao smiled bitterly when he heard this, shook his head and said: "There are too few disciples of Wu Shi this year, and most of them have not been able to survive the backlash of the Awakening Pill. Look at Junior Sister Ai's Yanlai Peak, not a single one is left. Are you going to leave? But at least she accepted Xu Mushan, and you accepted Zhu Ziling, junior brother. I have no choice. Although Yang Xueer is a girl with poor qualifications and temperament, she has a flexible mind and a paranoid personality. This is not true at all. It’s an advantage, but it’s still an advantage. Besides, didn’t she survive the backlash of the Awakening Pill? I think even if she’s a little worse, she shouldn’t be much worse.”
Zhou Tongtong's doubts were not completely solved, but he stopped asking and said: "Junior Sister Ai's attainments in Hanxi Inviting the Moon Art are the best in our sect. With her guidance, I believe that both you and my disciples can become talented. It should be done sooner rather than later, I will go back and give instructions and let Ziling go to Yanlai Peak by herself."
Wei Dedao nodded and said: "How about we let them be our companions? I believe that the master brother arranged for Chen Bingbing's nephew to come out for the same purpose."
Zhou Tongtong nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, let them go together so that we can take care of them."
The two of them made a tacit understanding and left.
