One day later.
To the west of Nanyanzhou City is Yuxiu Peak, where the gate of Julingshe is located.
"Could that guy be tricking me? This kind of weather has nothing to do with 'decline'..."
It was early in the morning, but many people had gathered at the foot of Yuxiu Peak. They were either teenagers or young adults, either alone or accompanied by their family members.
These people came from nearby or further places to try their luck in the entrance test of the Djinn Society.
As the "former" overlord force in the Southern Yanzhou region, even if the Giant Spirit Society weakens and loses most of its inheritance, in the eyes of ordinary people and small-power warriors, being able to join here and become a member of it is both an honor and an opportunity. .
Jiang Yan stood on a higher ground and looked around, finding more people bathing in the morning light and coming from further away.
"Fortunately, I inquired about the news in advance and came early."
While muttering to himself, he took advantage of the situation and pinched something in his palm. It was a token of dark color and unknown material, with a serial number engraved on the surface:
"Pick up eight."
This means that Jiang Yan can complete the entry test in the morning without having to wait.
"No. 1 to 100, please follow me into the mountain gate for testing."
Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a golden robe and carrying a long knife ran down from Yuxiu Peak and shouted loudly to the people in front of the mountain gate.
…
…
Mixed in the crowd, following the golden-robed man, Jiang Yan and others crossed the foot of the mountain and arrived step by step at a square in the middle of Yuxiu Peak.
The square is not big, and the whole square is covered by white jade slabs of equal area. In the center, there is a person standing, with his back to everyone.
At this moment, hearing the sound, the man turned around.
This is a man, he looks to be in his twenties, has a pretty face, a high nose, and gray-brown eyes.
"Uncle Chu." The man in golden robe came to this man, raised his hands and cupped his fists, and said respectfully:
"The first group of people who worship the mountain today have been brought here."
"Yes." The young-faced man nodded his chin slightly to express his understanding. He immediately raised his head, glanced at the team in front, and said in a commanding tone:
"I am only responsible for picking out the alchemy realm warriors among them."
…
…
"The Giant Spirit Society always pays equal attention to qualifications and character when selecting its disciples, and even more so for the latter."
In a spacious hall, Chu Danyang looked up at the five Dan realm warriors standing below and said directly:
"You and the rest of you are already in the Alchemy Realm. Your martial arts path is almost finalized and it is difficult to change. I also understand the purpose of joining our Giant Spirit Society, which is to go one step further and obtain the Talisman Realm cultivation method."
The warriors present, including Jiang Yan, nodded slightly and agreed with the man's statement.
The man continued without pausing:
"It's just that the law should not be taught lightly, especially the Talisman Realm cultivation method. What's more, you are like joining halfway. The sect doesn't understand you, what kind of people you are, and what kind of past you have.
"So, before verifying your martial arts qualifications, the sect needs to have a general understanding of your basic situation."
Having said this, he slapped his hands lightly, and several young men also wearing golden robes came to the hall with pens, ink and papers, and gave each of the five Dan realm warriors present a copy.
"Just briefly describe the basic information about each other. It doesn't need to be too detailed, and there is no need to reveal any secrets.
"Haha, as long as you are not lurkers of some evil forces."
After the five people sat down and unfolded the paper, Chu Danyang gave a simple instruction.
This is inconsistent with the information I heard. The Giant Spirit Society did not have such censorship in the past. Why has it changed this time? Jiang Yan sighed silently, knowing that what he was worried about had still happened... but he could not confess the fact that he had practiced martial arts for less than two years, and he could not reveal some of his "secrets" just for such a training method.
Closing his eyes, Jiang Yan tried his best not to show a different expression than others, imitating others, picked up a pen, and made up a story at will.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the five people started writing one after another, and the things they described were taken away by the men in gold robes standing beside them.
"alright."
Seeing them complete the first step, the young man nodded gently, then put his right hand into his pocket and took out something simple in style and green in color.
"This is a sect instrument. It was modeled on the 'Heart Mirror' by a certain ancestor. It's called Ming Ling, and it has..."
While introducing this instrument, Chu Danyang released his grip on it and let the instrument called "Ming Ling" float in the air by instinct.
"Heart Mirror"... "Ming Ling"... Just by listening to the name, you can tell that this thing is related to the spiritual aspect. Jiang Yan retracted his gaze from observing this green instrument and fell into deep thought for a moment.
"Your Excellency, you can directly tell me what to do next!"
At this time, a man with a full beard and thick black eyebrows among the five people stepped forward and interrupted Chu Danyang's words, looking a little irritable.
He has no patience at all. Could it be that his emotions were distorted by the Fire Department technique... Chu Danyang's expression did not change, but his eyes stopped vaguely on the bearded man's face... Ever since these people entered the hall, the test has been going on here we go.
He paused and continued to organize his words:
"The next thing you have to do is..."
At this time, the mirror device called "Ming Ling" floated to a high altitude, and the mirror surface emitted a silvery light, covering the entire hall.
The man's voice came at the right moment:
"What you have to do is to say three sentences under the witness of 'Ming Ling'. The specific description is:
“The contents of my previous handwriting are true and there is no falsehood;
“I have no ill intentions towards the Giant Spirit Society and I have no other purpose in coming here;
"I do not belong to evil forces and do not serve secret organizations."
Under the silver light, the man's words were repeated over and over again, like a nightmare or a whisper. They kept ringing in Jiang Yan's ears, as if they would never stop.
In such a scene, the five of them seemed to be infected. At different times, they followed the man and repeated without their control:
“The contents of my previous handwriting are true and there is no falsehood;
“I have no ill intentions towards the Giant Spirit Society and I have no other purpose in coming here;
"I do not belong to evil forces and do not serve secret organizations."
again and again.
…
…
"Unfortunately."
"None of the five of you passed the test of the sect. In the first, second or third testimony, what you said was different from what you thought. You lied."
I don't know how long it took, but after Jiang Yan recovered his spirit, Chu Danyang, who had already put away the "Ming Ling" equipment, just said this, then with a cold expression on his face, urged them to leave.
Is this a failure? Is that mirror so magical?
Sure enough, special-shaped instruments have some indescribable abilities that make people unable to guard against... Walking out of the hall and going down the steps, Jiang Yan, who was at the end, suddenly raised his head and looked at the same person with interest. The other four "losers" have divergent thinking:
The five people failed together, which means that among the five of them, at least one answer in the three "asking minds" was not in line with their own conditions, and many of them were not even in line with their own conditions.
So, among these people, which one belongs to the "evil force", the kind that can be killed hundreds of times without being wronged.
"Well, this bearded man looks very evil. You don't need to think too much to know that he is a ruthless character and has killed many creatures. He is very suspicious.
"This short woman doesn't look like a nice person. I always feel like she looks at people in the wrong way. She seems to be looking at food, which is also very suspicious."
"besides……"
After making random guesses, a few people arrived at the foot of the mountain and immediately blended into the increasingly turbulent crowd. They separated and walked in different directions.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yan turned his attention to the "most suspicious" bearded man, turned his steps, and followed him calmly.
The bearded man crossed the crowd and came to a narrow and rugged mountain road like a familiar road. He walked down step by step and walked into the shadow supported by tall ancient trees. He did not find Jiang Yan who was deliberately "hidden" at all.
"Well, let's stop here. Use the image of a masked stranger to quickly suppress it, and use the secret technique of 'Mind Seizing Illusion God' to control the inquiry."
I hope it doesn't make a mistake... Jiang Yan covered his face, no longer concealing his energy, turned his body skills, and rushed into the dense forest and came under the shadow.
However, as soon as he reached the depths of the mountain road, in this environment where ancient trees covered the sky and the morning light was difficult to penetrate, Jiang Yan paused and stopped moving or chasing after him.
A crimson soft thing lay softly on the ground, soaking the surrounding area red, "blocking" his way forward.
"he died!"
Without any basis, just by intuition, Jiang Yan knew that the red liquid that occasionally bubbled up in front of him and was still flowing around was the last remnant of his newly grown beard.
"It's not like the Djinn Society did nothing."
Recalling those three words of "asking one's heart", Jiang Yan suddenly turned his head, as if he was going to overcome many obstacles and see clearly into the depths of the Giant Spirit Society.
