The world is huge and full of wonders. The Xuanwu Continent is divided into two parts: north and south. The southern part is full of beautiful flowers and trees and the sun shines brightly. The northern sky is sometimes foggy and the visibility is only fifty meters, where spiritual beasts roam rampant.
Sometimes the heavy rain only lasts for a moment, and the scenery of flowers and trees turning into ice is very dazzling and colorful. Sometimes the sun shines and the ice crystals melt, and hundreds of flowers bloom on the trees.
There was a swamp everywhere filled with spiritual beasts, as if bathing in a holy bath, and a moment later the whole world was filled with mist again.
There were only some sect disciples, some family disciples and casual cultivators in the fog, hunting with fog light beads.
"Everyone should cooperate with each other and kill this level six spirit beast quickly before the heavy rain comes." An old man held a fog pearl and shouted to more than fifty teenagers.
Because he knew that once it started to rain heavily, all the fog would dissipate and the view would be widened, and all the spiritual beasts would come out in full force.
The rain is a good time for all the beasts to meet and give birth in the rain. For them, it is a nightmare and they will not be able to escape even if they want to.
At this time, a man was taking a young man flying through the mist. The young man was very curious about what the Xuanwu Continent would look like.
The man said to the young man: "This is the northern part of Xuanwu Continent, and it will be the place where you will go through training in the future, so you must be careful and try to enter the city or join the sect. After all, there is no water curtain and sky to protect you. There are many sects in such weather." The disciples are practicing and see that there are people below who are surrounding and killing the spiritual beasts."
The man took the young man and started to fly low. In an instant, the old man and a group of disciples noticed the backs of the two of them flying above them.
A group of young men and women were very envious. This was the real strong man who could fly freely regardless of the fog.
Among them was a girl who was stunningly beautiful. She noticed that the young man beside the strong man always felt a little familiar and yet strange to her, but she just couldn't remember where she met him.
"Don't be distracted and speed up. We have to rush to the nearby city. Where is the safest place." The old man had to remind them.
Their momentary distraction caused the sixth-level spirit beast to go berserk, and they were only a few seconds away from killing the three teenagers.
I saw the ice rain falling from the girl's sword, which instantly immobilized the sixth-level spirit beast, causing it to freeze and form a thin layer of ice.
This girl is Shen Yulan, the genius of the Shuiyun Sect. She was brought into the sect to practice by Lan Qianxun, the leader of the Shuiyun Sect, when she was five years old. She has been practicing in the sect for eleven years now.
Seeing the situation, a group of young men and women came forward and completely killed the fifth-level spiritual beast under siege, making them dance with joy for a while.
The old man quickly peeled off the necessary parts, took out a storage bag and put the fifth-level spirit beast away, then said: "Let's go, we will rush to the nearby city immediately. Tomorrow is the day when the sect selects disciples."
At this time, a middle-aged man and a young man appeared at the gate of Jishui City. The man showed a token in his hand and easily entered the city gate and checked into an inn.
"Mr. Xun, what should I do next?" the young man asked the middle-aged man.
"Yunquan, you are not very familiar with northern Xuanwu. Today I will give you a detailed explanation of what you should do then." Xun Li sat down and said.
Yunquan's ultimate goal is the Xuanjia South Sect, which is also the top sect in the north. But if he wants to enter it, he must be selected into it step by step, and first join a small sect to practice.
Hearing about the Xuanjia South Sect, Yunquan thought that the Xuanwu Sect where Xun Li belonged was actually a branch of the Xuanwu Continent, such as the Emperor Sect of the Xuanwu Continent.
“Mr.
"It's indeed a bit high. If I teach you a set of skills, you can gain some cultivation. No one in the small sect will notice it." Xun Li threw him a leather scroll directly.
Yunquan took the hand and watched it quietly. This technique is indeed very clever. It uses spiritual power to turn stars into spirals and hide them in the depths of the spiritual sea, like river stones in a river.
It took him half a day to form five star vortexes, allowing himself to become a spiritual warrior at the extreme level. I believe that no matter which small sect he goes to, it will definitely not be a problem.
At this moment, an old man outside the city gate was leading more than fifty disciples into the city. There were four small sect leaders on the scene who came out of the city to greet him.
"Elder Cai has worked hard all the way. Welcome to Jishui City. Your accommodation has been arranged. After you have rested, we will compete with each other."
One of the sect leaders smiled and said to Shen Yulan: "This must be our peerless genius in Jishui."
"Chen Yulan has met the four sect masters." Shen Yulan said very politely.
"Yu Lan is timid because of being close to home. It's better to take your mother back to the sect when you come back this time. You can't always leave her alone in Jishui." Elder Cai said to Shen Yulan.
"Thank you, Elder Cai. I will persuade my mother to go to the sect, but it's hard to say whether she is willing or not." Regarding this issue, she has never been able to figure out what her mother is.
They still knew something about the sect masters of the four major sects. Miss Shen's mother had some connections with Sect Master Lan and Sect Master Ji when she was young, but they couldn't explain it clearly.
After Yunquan finished practicing, he started walking alone on the streets of Jishui City. He planned to visit the four sects to see which sect was more suitable for him.
At this point, he discovered two strange places, one was the Lan Mansion in the south and the other was the Ji Mansion in the north.
The gates of the two mansions were closed tightly, and it seemed that no one was living there. There were many powerful spiritual martial arts cultivators guarding them all the time, and he couldn't tell their cultivation levels at all.
In the distance of Ji's Mansion, he saw a woman standing in front of Ji's Mansion and did not leave for a long time, as if she had some sad past, but no one drove him away.
The woman seemed to have noticed him, but she just turned her head and glanced at him, but didn't take him to heart.
Although the woman is classified as a commoner, it is not difficult to see that she was definitely a very beautiful woman when she was young.
That glance made his heart tremble. On the surface, she looked like an ordinary woman, but in fact she was an absolutely strong woman.
Led by the four sect leaders, the group stayed in a luxurious inn, which was right next to the inn where Yunquan was staying.
After Shen Yulan settled in, she left the inn alone and went straight to her home.
But when she got home, no matter how she shouted, there was no response from her mother. When she opened the door, she found that there was no one there, and she didn't know where her mother had gone.
The house was cleaned spotlessly and the bed was neatly folded. He must have been out not long ago.
Shen Yulan couldn't help but think of the past before she was five years old. Her mother didn't love her as much as other children. She had father's love and mother's love.
When she was a child, she once asked where her father was. Her mother beat her up and she never mentioned it again.
She has been sensible since she was a child, but she was often bullied for being a bastard without a father. She could only swallow it for fear of making her mother angry.
I remember one time when she was five years old, other children bullied her, and her master happened to be passing by. On the way home with her, he said he wanted to accept her as a disciple to discuss with his mother.
Master's behavior made her mother a little unhappy, and she was not allowed to enter the house. She seemed to have some unpleasantness with Master, and she didn't know what happened.
They seemed to have a quarrel when the master came out, and the mother finally kicked her out. Since then, she has entered Shuiyun Sect.
The woman who had been standing at the door of Ji Mansion for a long time finally turned around and left, with a trace of reluctance on her face.
Not long after the woman left, Yunquan also left. Now that he had some knowledge of the four sects in the city, he went straight back to the inn where he was staying.
At this time, Xun Li was sitting on the cave and asked Yun Quan which small sect he was going to enter. He knew exactly what was going on.
The four sects in the city were not big, with only about 500 people. The Mist Sect was the first to be eliminated, followed by the Hualing Sect. The Shui Lian Sect was not suitable either, but the Ji Shui Sect was acceptable.
He clearly distinguished the four sects, and Xun Li also nodded. Only the most suitable one is the best.
Yunquan was also very curious about the two empty mansions in the city, so he asked Xunli about the origin of those two mansions and why the empty mansions were still guarded by strong men.
Xun Li had some understanding of this issue. It was said that there was a great genius in these two houses. They had been close friends since childhood. Now one is the head of the Shuiyun Sect and the other is the head of the Tianshui Sect. .
Yun Quan was also very shocked after hearing this. In a small Jishui City, there were actually two sect leaders. It is no wonder that the two empty mansions are guarded by strong men.
"By the way, Shuiyun Sect will be in the city tomorrow and let the four sects conduct a competition to select disciples. If possible, you can go and see the Shuiyun Sect's criteria for selecting disciples. It will be beneficial for you whether you join Shuiyun Sect or Tianshui Sect in the future. Xun Li kindly reminded him that no matter which of the two sects he joins in the future, he will be mentally prepared.
"Okay, I will go to the meeting to observe the competition, and I can also know the current strength of the four sects. This is a good idea." Yunyue agreed.
When the woman returned home, she saw Shen Yulan sitting at home in a daze. However, seeing that her cultivation had reached the Lingwu Emperor realm, she felt no disturbance in her heart.
He didn't ignore her and just did whatever he wanted. He treated her like nothing. He didn't show any joy when his daughter came back. They didn't look like a mother and daughter at all.
After coming back, I felt that there was nothing to do, so I turned around and walked out of the house. I found a bottle of wine in my hand, sat on an old locust tree full of flowers and drank.
Shen Yulan woke up from her memories and felt that there seemed to be someone outside, so she got up and walked out.
She was seeing her mother drinking. In the past, she really didn't know that her mother could drink. She seemed to have a lot of things on her mind.
"Mom, you are back. There is something I want to discuss with you so that I can listen to your opinion." Shen Yulan said while sitting on the grass nearby.
The woman was still drinking the wine in her hand, as if she hadn't heard anything at all, and said to herself: "The past is like wine, are your ideals really so important? You can give up even the woman you like. .”
