"Let's go out and take a look. What do you think?"
"That's not good! The Immortal has made it clear that we are not allowed to leave here."
"What are you afraid of? I am a genius with dual spiritual roots. The sect will not give up on me."
"this……."
The night is getting dark, and something is brewing in the dark.
The next day, Ningxia and the others were taken to the gathering place yesterday. As soon as she entered the venue, she felt something was wrong in the atmosphere. When she walked to the front, she found that there were more than a dozen children tied up in front of the team, whining and screaming with cloth balls in their mouths.
They were led by the immortal leader past these children and then back to where they were yesterday. The whole place was silent except for the painful groans of those who were publicly executed.
The steward waited until all the teams had passed the children in front before he walked forward calmly.
"Everyone present here is the future pillar of our Wuhua Sect. As long as you join our Wuhua Sect, the sect is very willing to work hard to train you. Regardless of your talent, you can always get a place in Wuhua, as long as you work hard enough."
He changed his tone and looked contemptuously at the children kneeling on the ground: "Of course, what I am talking about does not include you. The sect will never tolerate debt collectors who make their own decisions. If you haven't joined our Wuhua Sect yet, The sect cannot afford to be so arrogant."
The Taoist in charge motioned to others to pull these eyesores down. "We, the Wuhua Sect, will never destroy human life, but these little guys have already glimpsed the fairyland. According to the law, their fairyland should be cut off and sent back to their hometowns."
Ning Xia shuddered when he heard the words, Duan Xian Road, it sounds like nothing. But isn't it torture to let a person who has seen the wonderful world lose the opportunity to seek immortality? And if you are sent back to your hometown, you will be ridiculed for the rest of your life.
It's really cruel, but think about it, the continent is so big, and there are so many talented people. Bringing back a group of disobedient people doesn't see any benefit to the sect.
"Here, I would like to congratulate you all for passing the first level of the entrance test. Next, is your real entrance test." Seeing everyone preparing for the entrance test, the Taoist Steward showed a smile on his serious face: "Don't be too nervous. Uncle Master, too. For those of you who came here, you haven’t entered the path of immortality yet, so we won’t let you go into battle to kill the enemy, it’s just a small test.”
The little carrot head, who had been frightened by the harsh immortal leader just now, felt a little uneasy.
He gave everyone a blank jade plaque. It was smooth and flawless. The whole piece of jade was extremely transparent. It was a fine jade stone. Even a child who was born into wealth would be surprised, let alone a country bumpkin like Ningxia who has only seen fakes in modern times.
While Ningxia was still drooling over the jade token, the Taoist in charge explained the purpose of the jade token responsibly.
Ning Xia dubiously placed her forehead against the jade plaque as she was told, silently reciting her name, and the simple seal characters appeared on the jade plaque out of thin air. Very good, I can’t understand it at all! She admired the artwork in her hand and put it in her arms with satisfaction. If she sold it in modern times, she would be rich.
The next step is to verify the spiritual roots again. Ning Xia observed the powerful-looking big guy in front of him and thought seriously, compared to this, that small stone plate is indeed a bit crude. It is said that there is a one-in-a-trillion chance that something is wrong with the stone plate, so it needs to be checked again before entering.
Fortunately, Ningxia didn't fall prey to the one-in-a-trillion evil, and successfully channeled three kinds of spiritual power into her jade tablet. She didn't expect that the Xiuxian sect also knew how to paint in an impressionistic style, and the colors were mixed quite nicely.
However, she seriously doubted that this link was specifically designed to catch imposters! No, another person with no spiritual roots was brought up, and that person was still trying desperately to defend himself that he had one before. Brother, the chance is one in a trillion. In ancient times, it was one in a trillion. If your test is really wrong, your luck will be invincible.
Now the team has been reduced by half again, darling, so many replacements? When Ningxia saw the Taoist priests, they all had expressions of normality. It seemed that they were used to it. No wonder they needed to test again.
"Oh my God, it was just a small test as promised? What's going on!" Ningxia looked up and saw a forest filled with smoke. There was no one, not even an insect. Where are the friends who came with me? How could she get out of this!
Just a quarter of an hour ago, a group of people from Ningxia followed the steward to a high white wall. The wall was moist and translucent, and there was no flaw under the light. It was probably made of a whole piece of jade.
This is probably the Wenxinmen Gate that the heroine encounters. Ning Xia remembers that the book details the heroine’s mental journey on the second level of the Zongtian Ladder, but there is too little ink on the first level of the Wenxinmen Gate. Therefore, Ningxia does not know what this test is about.
No, I was tricked. How on earth do you get out of here? Although it's not exactly invisible, it's bad enough that you can't tell the difference between people and trees within three meters. She silently took back the hand she just thought she had reached out to her friend, but it was another tree.
She walked around randomly, but still had no clue. Even if she could find herself walking in circles, it would be better than not knowing where she was now.
How on earth do you get out! She really wanted to enter the inner sect. Although her talent did not meet the qualifications to be directly selected into the inner sect, she could become an inner sect disciple as long as she passed two levels of selection.
Ningxia definitely doesn't want to confront the heroine at the outer door. Although the heroine was initially a handyman disciple, the halo and golden fingers of the protagonist are not decorations. Ningxia also has ambitions to seek immortality. What if her eyes are swollen in the way?
Entering the inner door, her environment will be much safer. Not to mention the abundant resources, by the time the heroine came up, Ningxia had already established her footing. When the time comes, there are so many powerful people in the inner sect, and the world outside is so big, there is no way she can offend Wang Daya no matter what.
It's useless to make wishful thinking, she has to pass this level. Ning Xia remembered that the person in charge said that walking out of the Questioning Heart Gate before sunset would be considered a passing grade. Of course, she couldn't see it here, and it should be referring to the time in the real world.
Wait... Ask the Heart Gate? It can't be what she thinks! With the mentality of giving it a try, she closed her eyes and walked forward blindly. Sure enough, those trees are all fake. If you don’t look at them or think about them, you won’t hit them.
Then, just keep going like this. Ningxia didn't stay alone for long. After walking for a few minutes with her eyes closed, she felt like she had passed through a membrane and arrived at a windy place.
Ning Xia opened her eyes, and there were many Taoists standing in front of her, all looking at her in surprise. The steward raised his eyebrows and asked, "Little girl, it only takes one stick of incense to pass! Have you seen enough of the scenery?"
Don’t you feel guilty giving this kind of question to children? Fortunately, she, Ningxia, had received a political education from the Great Celestial Dynasty, so she knew a little bit about idealism.
"Didn't the Immortal say that there is only one way to ask the heart?" Ning Xia pretended to be enigmatic. Anyway, you can get out by closing your eyes and walking blindly, or you can get out by following the winding path in the forest. Of course, a straight line between two points is the shortest.
The immortal master somehow caught up with Ning Xia's brainwaves, and laughed loudly: "What a smart little girl. I'm sorry everyone else has taken detours."
"Okay, I will give you a mark myself. Don't be proud. Keep working hard." The Taoist Steward marked the jade sign of Ningxia. She put the sign in her arms and smiled happily. She was still one step away.
