Several thatched houses made of hay and bamboo are located in the center of the yard, surrounded by square areas divided by grooves, arranged neatly. Each piece of land is lush and green, with many familiar or unfamiliar spiritual herbs and some strange-looking plants, making the entire courtyard full of aura. Even a cultivator like the blue-robed young man feels extremely comfortable after taking a deep breath.
"Come into the house!" The owner of the voice became impatient when he saw him lingering.
The young man in blue robe smiled lightly and walked into the hut carelessly.
Lying in the room was an old man with a white beard and a sword on his back, lying on his side on a bed made of bamboo. He was holding a gourd in his hand. He looked a little drunk and his clothes were sloppy. He was looking dissatisfied at the young man in blue robe who had just entered. , "Well, you little Lu, you ruined my lunch break plan. Tell me how you can compensate me for my good sleep!"
"Disciple Lu Yibai, I have met my uncle!" The young man in blue robe stepped forward to salute the sloppy old man.
"Master-uncle, don't mention it. I was assigned to do some work this year and broke my leg while running. Oh my god, you and Junior Brother Huanzhen are so good at hiding here and enjoying the happiness. It's hard to find a meal for me!" The young man in blue robe was Lu Yibai. He said rather grumblingly, "Uncle Master, I came to you for two things. The first one is that Xuanji asked that the trial is about to begin!"
"Oh, when it comes to trials, just count the days!"
"There's one more thing!" Lu Yibai suddenly lowered his voice, "Uncle-Master, he is really a junior-disciple!"
"I asked him to go to Eagle Beak Cliff to fight with the Vajra Five Elements Ape above every day. He is probably being beaten right now!"
"This matter is related to Junior Brother Huanzhen. It would be best if he is not here!"
"What's going on!" Fuyaozi's expression changed, and he noticed something unusual in Lu Yi's words.
Lu Yibai then leaned over and whispered in Fuyaozi's ear.
After listening, Fuyaozi said with a strange expression: "Impossible, where did Zhao Jinyan find Mu Donglai's last words on the jade plate! It's true that this guy colluded with Shen Yuwei to assassinate Mu Donglai. Do you believe this? Mr. Lu, I don't believe it anyway. , do Zhong Lianlei and the others have any brains!"
"Uncle Master, of course I don't believe it, but the evidence that Uncle Zhao has obtained seems to be very sufficient. Moreover, although the leader ordered not to discuss this news, it has been spread privately among Xuanji! For this reason, the leader and my master also All the masters have discussed it for a long time and decided to put it on hold for the time being, unless there is conclusive evidence! The master asked me to make a special trip this time to deliver a message, in order to ask Junior Brother Huanzhen to go back and participate in the questioning trial to dispel that theory!"
"Let me think about it, let me think about it!" Fuyaozi squinted his eyes and started thinking.
"Master, I'm back. I knocked down that monkey today!" At this time, Li Huanzhen's voice came back into the house.
"Senior Brother Lu, why are you here!" When Li Huanzhen saw Lu Yibai, he asked happily.
"Ah! I haven't seen you for more than a year. Junior brother, you have already entered the human spirit realm!" Lu Yibai looked around at Li Huanzhen and said with a smile.
At this time, Li Huanzhen was completely different from a year ago. He saw that Li Huanzhen's true energy was emerging from all over his body, and his eyes were piercing and shining like stars. He felt the tyranny of Li Huanzhen's body. It's like a magic weapon.
What Lu Yibai didn't know was that during this year, Fuyaozi asked Li Huanzhen to fight with the monsters in the Southern Wilderness every day. At the beginning, some monsters with low cultivation level could beat him black and blue, and even worse At that time, there was only half a life left.
Fuyaozi then planted the elixir found in the Southern Wilderness on the outside of the bamboo hall, and used the elixir to nourish Li Huanzhen's body every day. This place is located on the edge of the Southern Wilderness. Not only is it relatively remote and quiet, but it is also The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely abundant, far beyond the comparison of ordinary spiritual veins, and it is no worse than the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered by the Xuanji Master Sect using magic circles.
In order to prevent stray monsters from invading, Fuyaozi immediately set up three more large formations outside the bamboo hall, so that he could truly be called stable, and then planned a training plan for Li Huanzhen.
So over the course of the year, Li Huanzhen's physique and the energy in his body became more and more refined. After that, the level of monsters that Li Huanzhen was able to challenge became higher and higher, and he went deeper and deeper into the depths of the Southern Wilderness. He even encountered monsters that even Fuyaozi The holy-level monster that could not be dealt with - the Purple Flame Beast of the Earth Soul, the master and the disciple had no choice but to flee, hoping to grow wings. After that, Fuyaozi no longer allowed Li Huanzhen to go deep into the Southern Wilderness. He captured a sect-level beast. The cultivated Vajra Five Elements Ape was imprisoned on the Yingzui Cliff near their bamboo hall, and Li Huanzhen was asked to challenge it every day. After half a year, Li Huanzhen finally defeated the Vajra Five Elements Ape for the first time.
"Junior brother, Xuanji is about to hold a trial. The master uncle asked me to deliver a message and ask my uncle to go back with you to attend the ceremony!"
"It's true. Since Mr. Lu has come here, you go and clean up, and we'll go back to Xuanji..."
The Taoist Trial is a grand event held every three years in Xuanji. In order to warn future generations and guide young disciples, Patriarch Xuanji Wanjun passed down this grand event of the Taoist Trial. Later, there was a ten-year discussion in the world of immortality. After the conference, the Dao Dao Trial became an internal qualifier for Xuanji to participate in the Cultivation Dao Association. The younger generation of disciples who won the Dao Dao Trial could represent Xuanji in this Cultivation Dao Conference.
It has been seven days since Li Huanzhen returned to Xuanji with his master Fuyaozi. The selection for the Wenwen Trial officially started today. Each lineage of Xuanji selected a number of disciples. First, each lineage selected four disciples to participate. In previous years, the main It is the seven main peaks of Xuanji that select disciples to participate in the competition. There is only one Fuyaozi in the Shangqing Peak lineage, so no one participated in previous years. But this time, the leader Zhong Lianlei specially added Shangqing Peak Li Huan. The real name has a deep meaning that only a few palm peaks can understand.
Three days after Li Huanzhen returned to Xuanji, he clearly felt that many Xuanji disciples looked at him strangely, with horror and disgust.
Especially the disciples from the Weapon Refining Peak and the Law Enforcement Peak, with even hatred in their eyes and anger in their eyes. Although most of Xuanji's disciples treated Li Huanzhen neither salty nor coldly, now they have a good relationship with each other and can still greet each other. The other disciples also avoided Li Huanzhen, as if there was something unclean about him. Only Lu Yibai still chatted with him as usual, but when Li Huanzhen asked why other Xuanji disciples saw him like this, Lu Yibai just Let’s say haha.
The master Fuyaozi told Li Huanzhen on the second night after returning to Xuanji that he had something to go down the mountain. The subsequent questioning trials would depend on his own performance.
