【Oriental Assembly Hall】

There were many people standing in the meeting hall. On the main stage of the hall stood Danhua, Yunzhi and others. In the middle of them stood a man in his thirties, eight feet tall, wearing a gold rhombus crown with long hair. Pinned upright behind his back, this man has regular features, a tall figure, and a serious expression at the moment.

This person is none other than Qi Luo, the chief disciple of the Eastern Sect’s Alchemy Hall.

Qi Luo stared at a blurred picture frame floating above the meeting hall, and the image in the picture frame was Qianqiu who witnessed the bloody killing.

Many practitioners came in one after another in the meeting hall, and everyone's expressions were either happy or worried.

"Senior Brother Qi, isn't this too cruel?" Yunzhi asked as he watched Qianqiu being tortured.

Qi Luo showed displeasure and said helplessly: "I didn't do this. The ecstasy was put away by your Yanyu Hall."

"You! Aren't you trying to burn bridges by crossing the river?" Yunzhi said angrily.

Danhua walked to the front and said, "That's almost it. How about this? I can't stand it anymore. Aren't you afraid of causing irreparable damage to this child's soul?"

"You are too cruel!" Standing next to Dan Hua was a small man with a mustache. He was a few years older than Qi Luo and looked a little older. This man was Gong, a disciple of the Fire Control Hall. Gao Liang, he said again: "This scene, even me, an outsider, is frightened when I see it."

"Actually, it should have ended when Qianqiu chose to exchange his life for the lives of the villagers, right?" Yanyu asked, and then added: "As for the 'character' test, he has already passed it, why not?" Finish?"

Qi Luo didn't turn around and said, "I want to see how much this disciple's mental endurance is."

"Senior Brother Qi, he is only eighteen years old! Don't you think about how strong he can be? This illusion is a hundred times more real than a dream. You and I both came here like this." Danhua said excitedly.

"Junior brother Danhua, don't be anxious. Look, he still hasn't collapsed after holding on until now." Qi Luo pointed at Qianqiu.

While several people were discussing, a disciple came up to report: "Brothers and sisters, only Qianqiu is still in the illusion. The rest have completed the test. Those who failed the test have been sent down the mountain, and those who passed the test have been sent down the mountain. Arrive at the meeting hall. Except for Qianqiu, there are a total of twenty-nine people who passed the 'character' test this time. The first person to arrive at the meeting hall was Huangfu Qingyu, the second was Bie Ling, and the third was Yu Wenhua."

"Yes, I understand." Qi Luo asked his junior brother to retreat, "Just ask them to wait a little longer."

"I understand." The junior brother who made the report replied before retreating.

Yang Xian and others in the audience also saw Qianqiu's situation on the screen.

Yang Xian shouted to the people in front of the hall: "That's enough! Do you want to play him to death?"

"It's painful enough for you to test us, why do you let Brother Qian continue to suffer?" Erzhu, who passed the test, also said with dissatisfaction.

Bieling waved his long whip and shouted: "Stop!"

"How presumptuous! Isn't the Eastern Conference Hall a place where you can shout loudly?" Qi Luo cursed angrily, "Those who are not convinced can just go down the mountain on their own, no one will stop you."

Danhua came out to smooth things over: "You three, don't make trouble. Qianqiu is fine."

At this moment, Qianqiu, who was sweating profusely and pale, walked in slowly outside the hall. There were several Eastern Sect disciples surrounding him, for fear that he would fall.

Qianqiu smiled miserably and said: "What other tricks are there? You Eastern faction can just use it! I, Qianqiu, will follow."

Yang Xian and Erzhu saw Qianqiu coming and hurried over to give him a hand.

Yunzhi and Yanyu looked at Qianqiu and sighed softly.

"Everyone's illusion is different. The weakest parts of your heart will be shown in the illusion. What's wrong? Can't you hold on?" Qi Luo asked lightly.

The meeting hall was silent.

"Whether it's an illusion or reality, I can withstand it." Qianqiu said with a smile, sweat still flowing.

In fact, Qianqiu hated Qi Luo who was standing in front, but she was also very grateful to him for strengthening the weakest link in her mind.

What's sad is that the things in the fantasy seem to have really happened, and I still have lingering fears.

If he hadn't been hacked to death by the one-eyed dragon, he didn't know if he would have woken up. Although the illusion was painful, it also indirectly sharpened his mentality.

Qi Luo looked at Qianqiu, nodded, and said to everyone: "Okay, everyone, I would like to congratulate you all for passing the three rounds of tests and officially becoming disciples of the Eastern Sect. The first two rounds were conducted by Junior Brother Danhua from Fumutang, and Junior sister Yanyu is responsible for the rhyme of the Yanyu Hall, and I am Qi Luo of the Alchemy Hall, and the person next to me is Junior Gong Gaoliang of the Fire Control Hall. The third round is not to test anything else, but to stimulate your inner The most noble side of character, I’m glad that you all can come out of the illusion and stick to your bottom line.”

"Senior Brother Qi, how did we enter the illusion?" someone in the audience asked.

"You added Ecstasy to your diet last night, and the Yama flowers unique to Dongfang Mountain were planted in your courtyard. As soon as the Yama flowers take effect, you will naturally enter the illusion after taking a rest." Yunzhi explained.

Yanyu then said: "These two herbs are not toxic by themselves, but when combined together, they will be a little different, which is why the illusion comes from this. From now on, we will be brothers in the same sect. If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

"Senior Sister Yanyu, where are the earth element brothers and sisters?" someone asked again.

Yanyu looked at the disciple who asked the question and replied: "Sister Zheng Lulu, the senior sister of Jiangtu Hall, went down the mountain to do some business, so she was not here today."

Danhua stepped forward and said: "Junior brothers and sisters, there will be a formal apprenticeship ceremony tomorrow. Don't worry. Today we are just announcing the test results on behalf of several masters. Later, brothers and sisters will take you to the corresponding There are other residential courtyards in the Shufa Department.”

Yuan Lang, who was standing in the crowd and also passed the test, asked: "Then how will the practice be carried out in the future?"

"In the future, the training will be determined by the respective masters. We don't know very well, but morning classes will be held every day. On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, everyone can take a day off." Danhua said.

"Senior Brother Danhua, I heard that our sect has a library, which contains many secret contract techniques and techniques, right?" Yuan Lang continued to ask.

Danhua thought for a moment: "As for the library, everyone can go in and study as long as they are free."

Everyone chirped and asked a lot of questions.

The weak Qianqiu found a place and sat down uncomfortably.

"Brother Qian, are you okay?" Yang Xian asked worriedly.

Qianqiu's eyes were empty, and he looked in front of him and said, "Lao Yang, do you know? How painful is that feeling of powerlessness?"

"Although I can't feel the pain, I know you are very sad now. I can't help you with anything. All I can do is stay with you. Brother Qian, I admire you for what you do." Yang Xian held his hand tightly. Said while holding Qianqiu's hand.

"I watched them killing and killing, and I felt that my face was splattered with blood. I didn't know if it was blood or tears, but I didn't know if it was blood or tears. At that time, I was thinking that if I could use magic, I could save those people. Poor people." Qianqiu said and tears fell again.

Bieling rolled up his long hair, squatted down and said to Qianqiu: "Although you failed to save them, at this moment, you are their hero."

"I feel so useless, I can't even save that child..." Qianqiu cried, holding her head.

Erzhu patted Qianqiu on the back and comforted: "Brother Qianqiu, don't think about it, those are all fake."

Qianqiu raised his head and said firmly: "The illusion is fake, but what I feel is real. There are so many powerful people in this world, what if it is real next time? Sooner or later, we will meet people like you again. Are we still helpless against the monster in Miss Sun?"

Qianqiu stood up slowly, motioning to Bieling and Yang not to help him, and said softly: "I want to be alone for a while."

Looking at Qianqiu's lonely back, Erzhu asked doubtfully: "Farewell sister, Brother Yang, do you think Brother Qianqiu can get out of this shadow?"

"He will become stronger, I believe in him." Yang Xian said seriously, then looked at Bieling and Erzhu and asked, "What do you think?"

"I also believe that Brother Qianqiu will become even more powerful." Erzhu said with a simple smile.

"I...I think he will become more mature." Bieling also answered with a smile.

Erzhu looked at Bie Ling and smiled, and said excitedly: "Sister Bie, you are smiling!"

Yang Xian looked at Bieling, and whispered to Erzhu: "Your sister Bieling is angry because of one person, and her smile is also because of one person."

"What do you mean?" Erzhu asked, rubbing his head.

"You'll probably understand when you're older," Yang Xian said with a smile. After the audience had finished speaking, he left the meeting hall.

"Is your name Bieling?" Suddenly a voice came from behind Bieling.

Bieling turned around and saw Huangfu Qingyu, who was free and easy.

"My name is Huangfu Qingyu. I watched your competition in the second round of testing. I think you are very strong. Can we get together to communicate in the future?" Huangfu Qingyu said politely.

Bie Ling looked at Huangfu Qingyu, nodded lightly, and said, "I know you, Huangfu Qingyu, let's talk about it when we have time."

"Yes, it's a deal." Huangfu Qingyu turned around and left with satisfaction when Bieling agreed.

Erzhu looked at Huangfu Qingyu and said enviously: "I wish I were as powerful as him. I don't have to worry about others bullying me."

"Then practice well." Bieling said without saying anything and walked out of the meeting hall.

【Oriental Gate】

Qianqiu held the black cloth and sat quietly on a huge rock in front of the door. Sitting here, he could just see the wonderful scenery of the sea of ​​clouds on the top of the mountain in the east.

After looking at it, he suddenly took out the jade pendant in his arms and looked at it carefully.

At this moment, Heibu suddenly rushed over and swallowed the jade pendant.

"Heibu, don't!" Qianqiu couldn't stop him in time, Heibu had already swallowed the jade pendant into his mouth.

Before Qianqiu could say anything, the black cloth began to roll around on the ground, looking extremely painful.

"Heibu, what's wrong with you? Heibu!" Qianqiu looked at Heibu and seemed to be choking. He hugged Heibu and shook it desperately, hoping to make it spit out the jade pendant.

After shaking around, Heibu finally opened his mouth and spit out the jade pendant, but the color of the jade pendant changed.
