After Ying Changfeng and Lin Hai finished their discussion, they returned to the main hall and asked whether the elders should fight or not. However, the issue of who should be Xiang Shen's master was ultimately left vacant just like Xiang Jianjue.
This incident did not affect Xiang Shu. The next day, she received the disciple token and sect rules book personally sent by the fifth elder, and was arranged to learn how to read under Mr. Menzhong.
This matter was a complete waste of time for Xiang Shen, but since she had made up her mind to keep a low profile, she never did anything shocking and just stayed in the school, leaving early and coming back late every day, pretending to study hard.
In fact, she only dedicated a ray of thought to the class, and the rest of her thoughts were on cultivation.
It was not easy to practice in the school, but it freed her mind to figure out what happened with the ice sword move she used in front of Luo Qingyun.
Ice spirit root.
Ever since she struggled to suppress the ray of ice energy when testing the spiritual roots, she had been guessing whether it was ice spiritual roots.
As the true energy in her body gradually transformed into stable ice-based true energy in the past two days, she was completely sure that her spiritual roots had indeed changed.
This change came after she practiced the "Ancestral Seal".
Before practicing the "Ancestral Seal", she had indeed not yet cultivated her true essence, but at that time she did not sense any ice breath in her body.
It is not so much that Luo Qingyun encountered danger that caused her to explode her potential and stimulate the ice spirit root. It is better to say that the "ancestral seal" unearthed the potential of this physical body and made the ice spirit root's potential reach the critical point before she had a chance. Exploded in one fell swoop.
This is the fourth level of ancestral seal.
If she goes deeper in the future, will her spiritual roots change again?
Xiang Shu couldn't help but think that Si Wuyue must know about this, but it's a pity that she can't see him now.
"Luo Shen!"
The old master on the podium gave a soft drink and clicked on the content on the slate behind him, "You can tell me the meaning of this passage."
Xiang Shu immediately stood up, cleared his throat, and answered clearly. The content of his answer was almost word for word exactly what the old master said.
The old master couldn't grasp the reason and could only say: "Very good, sit down."
After class, the children dispersed in a hurry, and Xiang Shu was no exception. She was eager to go back and continue studying her spiritual roots.
The old master looked at Xiang Shu's leaving figure and couldn't help but sigh.
"What? It's rare to see you sighing, and there are students that our great elder cannot teach?"
Hearing the sound, the elder turned his head and saw Ying Changfeng, and immediately smiled and said: "Why are you here, kid? Isn't the door busy?"
"Come here and take a breather."
Ying Changfeng pulled out a chair and sat down, saying, "You haven't answered me yet."
"It's not the little thorn you found."
The great elder snorted coldly and sat down.
Ying Changfeng suddenly laughed and said, "What did that boy Jian Jue do again?"
"Jian Jue is a fifteen-year-old boy, what do I care about him?"
The great elder shook his hand and replied, "It's Luo Shen."
"Luo Shen?"
Ying Changfeng was really surprised this time, "I heard several elders praise that the child is well-behaved and has a sweet mouth. How come he has become such a thorn in your side?"
"That girl is very well-behaved and learns things quickly."
Thinking of the situation just now, the elder couldn't help but sigh again: "But every time I come to class, I always feel that the girl is not listening at all. But when it comes to the test of what she said in class, she can answer the questions flawlessly. It's really... ...I’m so angry!”
Ying Changfeng couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Elder, are you angry about this? Maybe the little girl is so talented that she can do two things at once."
The great elder nodded thoughtfully, "You are right, extraordinary people should be treated as extraordinary things. I will arrange a test for her. If she can pass, this literacy class can end early."
"Then I won't disturb you, elder, from teaching our new generation of geniuses."
Ying Changfeng stood up and patted his sleeves, showing a hearty smile: "I'll see you next time."
"You kid, please take it easy."
The Great Elder said in a low tone: "No one in the sect blamed you for what happened to your master back then. Don't bear everything on your shoulders. The situation of Wanjian Sect is much better than it was back then, but the foundation is shallow and cannot stand. Stormy weather.
The new generation of disciples cannot carry the cauldron, and we still have to rely on you to sustain the sect. Please discuss with us when encountering problems, and seek stability in everything. Do you understand? "
Ying Changfeng turned around and smiled, "Elder, you still don't understand my temper? Don't worry, I can hold on."
After saying that, Ying Changfeng waved his hand and left.
The great elder watched him leave blankly, sighing secretly.
If Tianqing Pavilion hadn't caused trouble a hundred years ago and Shuan Ji was still alive, the underworld might not have been so easy to invade.
Unfortunately, nothing can go back.
…
On this day, in front of Wanjianmen Sutra Pavilion.
Xiang Shen stood among a group of fourteen or fifteen-year-old children. He looked extremely petite, attracting frequent glances from the surrounding teenagers.
Xiang Yu looked calmly at the main entrance of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
After half a month of studying and learning in a pile of carrots, the old master finally freed her with a test, and arranged her into an older team in advance, where she began to be exposed to the sect's classics.
This step is to allow the disciples of the sect to establish their initial understanding of the world of cultivation.
After a while, the elder opened the door and the children poured in.
"I heard you all clearly. You must memorize every book on this shelf. If you can pass the test in three months, you will be able to officially come into contact with the way of cultivation. If you fail, you can only continue to waste time here. Time, do you understand?"
"Here!"
The children's voices were clear and clear, and they all responded. Then they immediately separated and picked up the books on the bookshelf to memorize it silently.
Xiang Shu seemed a little unhurried, looking over the rubbings on the bookshelf, flicking his fingers casually, and took down a volume.
The mark on this file clearly belongs to Thousand Stars Palace, but the last signature on the cover is Thousand Stars Pavilion.
When did Qianxing Palace start the intelligence business?
Opening the file thoughtfully, Xiang Shu read ten lines at a time, his eyes gradually changing.
What is recorded in this file is the major events that happened in the past hundred years.
The first is the break between the five major sects and Tianqing Pavilion.
Although this matter has not been made public, Qianxing Temple and Tianyan Sect have successively established Qianxing Pavilion and Tianyan Ji to drive out the Tianqing Pavilion branch of the territory, which is an extremely obvious signal.
Nowadays, the power of Tianqing Pavilion is not as strong as before, and the branch pavilions have long been expelled from various sects. In other cities, Tianqing Pavilion, Qianxing Pavilion and Tianyanji also stand in a tripartite relationship, and their relationship is very delicate.
Xiang Shen narrowed her eyes slightly, and she expected such a change in the situation.
Even if Liu Huang is killed by her, what he did is already known. Once trust is shaken, the living space of Tianqing Pavilion will be squeezed, which is normal.
The second thing recorded in the file is the Earthly Yin Demon.
"One hundred and three years ago, the female cultivator Xiang Shu used her own power to re-establish the gate of the underworld, risking her life to block the invasion of the underworld.
The various sects in East Continent thought they would have at least five hundred years to prepare for war, but unexpectedly, within seventy years, Yin demons appeared one after another in various parts of East Continent.
The gate of the Underworld is still submerged in the black tide, and no one knows how the Underworld demons arrived. These demons are all murderous monsters with confused minds. Everywhere they go, they kill and destroy all lives. "
There are few details in the dossier, but it is enough for a preliminary understanding.
It turns out that the boundary gate she set up is still there.
Xiang Shu put the file back, and there was a glimmer in her eyes. She still remembered the glance in that void space, and she saw the scene in the underworld.
There were also many mortals and monks there. Judging from their appearance, they were no different from the people from Dongzhou, and she did not see any existence similar to the Earthly Demons.
If it wasn't the underworld, where did these demons... come from?
The thought passed away in a flash, and Xiang Shu continued to look through the files on the bookshelf, gradually learning more details about the past hundred years.
For example, the Little Blessed Land where Wanjianmen is located is actually related to what she did in the East Continent Competition many years ago.
Back then, she participated in the war as Wan Jianmen, which eventually made Wanjianmen the number one in the East Continent Competition, and also made Wanjianmen's situation extremely embarrassing.
Fortunately, the old sect master did not lose his mind because of this, and simply dedicated the First Blessed Land to the Thousand Stars Palace for disposal.
The First Blessed Land was originally in the territory of Fengyue Sect and was occupied by Fengyue Sect. Now it was nominally classified as Qianxing Palace, so this matter naturally turned into a deal.
The details of the game between the two sects are unknown. In short, everyone was happy in the end, and the Wanjian Sect was rewarded by the Thousand Stars Palace. They moved from the barren mountain to this small cave heaven to develop, and the clan gradually prospered.
It took half a day to read all the books on the first floor, and Xiang Shu also understood the current situation of the cultivation world in Dongzhou.
But what surprised her was that everything was mentioned in these files, except for one thing.
Incense Hall.
She didn't see any description or even mention of Incense Palace in these files.
Why is this?
But among Lin Hai and others, it seems that this matter is not avoided.
Xiang Shuo was thinking about this even while eating. Luo Qingyun looked distressed. The child didn't know how to take a break while studying.
She picked up a piece of meat and put it in Xiang Shen's bowl, and said softly: "Why are you so lost in thought? Eat quickly so that you don't get hungry while reading in the afternoon."
Xiang Shu came back to his senses, took a few mouthfuls of rice, looked at Luo Qingyun for a moment, and suddenly said: "Mother, do you know about Incense Palace?"
Luo Qingyun paused immediately with the chopsticks in her hand and said in a deep voice: "Did you see the Incense Palace in the sect's books?"
Looking at Xiang Shen, she heard another meaning in the words.
It seems that the incident of the Incense Hall is not recorded in the sect’s classics, probably because the Dongzhou Sect has explicitly prohibited it.
Moreover, Luo Qingyun even knows this, who is she?
She was thinking this in her heart, but she shook her head and said, "No, but I remember that at the Niangniang Temple, Senior Brother and the others said, does Niang know?"
Luo Qingyun stirred gently with her chopsticks and showed a light smile: "Those are all matters of immortals, how do you know? Eat quickly. Don't think about asking your senior brother about this matter. The most important thing for you now is to practice. Don’t worry about other things.”
"knew."
Xiang Shu responded and continued to eat.
