After Xiao Zhan entered Huayan Sect, he immediately contacted Liu Ruyan.
Not long after, Liu Ruyan flew from a distance and landed next to Xiao Zhan.
She looked at Xiao Zhan and asked softly:
"what's the matter?"
Xiao Zhan smiled and said:
"Senior Sister Liu, is there any way to get Sun Hu and others to join the Huayan Sect?"
Liu Ruyan shook her head:
"If you want to join the Huayan Sect, you must pass the entrance examination."
Xiao Zhan hummed:
"Are there any exceptions?"
Liu Ruyan took a deep look at Xiao Zhan:
"have."
"The Supreme Elder, or the direct descendant of the sect leader, can join our Huayan Sect unconditionally."
Xiao Zhan asked again:
"Is there any other way?"
Liu Ruyan thought for a moment, nodded and said:
"Unless you have made a great contribution to the sect, you can apply to the sect."
Xiao Zhan thought for a moment and took out hundreds of kyanites with a wave of his hand:
"Are these enough?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Liu Ruyan's eyes:
"Where did you get so many kyanites?"
Xiao Zhan said half truthfully:
"I got it by accident after we separated."
Liu Ruyan obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't ask further questions.
"These kyanites are not enough for Sun Hu and his three brothers to join the Huayan Sect."
"It's possible that you won't even get a spot."
Xiao Zhan took out some more elixirs.
Liu Ruyan nodded:
"There should be hope of getting some spots."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan was silent for a few seconds and then put away all these things, leaving only five kyanites.
"Senior Sister Liu, I will give you these five kyanites."
Liu Ruyan asked in surprise:
"are you sure?"
Xiao Zhan said yes.
Liu Ruyan was not pretentious. After putting away the five kyanites with her hand, she said truthfully:
"I asked the Weapon Refining Hall to tailor a weapon for me, and I really need kyanite."
"In exchange, whatever you need, as long as I have it, I can consider giving it to you, or I can find a way to get it for you."
Xiao Zhan shook his head.
He knew very well that in order for the three brothers and sisters Sun Hu and Gao Yuan to join the Huayan Sect through the back door, it would take a lot of effort. ..net
The most precious thing on his body now should be the remaining four drops of Demon Emperor's spiritual fluid.
But the fact that Xiao Zhan had the Demon Emperor's spiritual liquid in his body would inevitably lead to death once others knew about it.
Seeing Xiao Zhan shaking his head, Liu Ruyan thought for two seconds and suddenly said:
"There is another way."
"The disciples of the Huayan Sect are divided into three levels, I believe you already know that."
"Generally speaking, outer disciples and inner disciples do not have any privileges."
"But core disciples have certain privileges."
"And among the core disciples, there are nine swordsmen in total."
"Each swordsman is allowed to carry nine sword attendants."
This was the first time Xiao Zhan heard about 'Jianzi' and 'Swordsman'.
Liu Ruyan continued to explain:
"Our Huayan Sect has a sword left by the founder of the sect. It is also the number one weapon of our Huayan Sect. It is called the Huayan Sword."
"The Huayan Sword contains the energy sealed by the Patriarch. Whoever can wield the Huayan Sword is the candidate for the next head of our Huayan Sect."
"And the swordsmen are the nine disciples selected from all the disciples of our Huayan Sect who can activate the Huayan Sword."
"You can understand that the nine swordsmen are
He is the candidate for the next head of our Huayan Sect. "
"As for the sword attendants, they are the followers of the nine sword masters and obey all the sword master's orders."
"In the past history of our Huayan Sect, when a swordsman succeeded as the sect leader, his nine swordsmen also became prominent people, and their strength was also very powerful."
Xiao Zhan fell into deep thought again.
Seeing Xiao Zhan like this, Liu Ruyan shook his head and said:
"If you want to become a swordsman, you must first apply for a test to see if you can activate the energy of the ancestor sealed in the Huayan Sword, and whether you can be recognized by the Huayan Sword."
"Secondly, you have to defeat any one of the nine swordsmen before you can take his place."
Become the sword of Huayan Sect.
Xiao Zhan began to weigh it in his mind.
It would be safer for him if he didn't join, and he wouldn't come into the sight of the senior leaders of Huayan Sect.
It's just that this won't allow Sun Hu and others to join the Huayan Sect.
The three brothers and sisters Sun Hu, plus the six Gao Yuan, have exactly nine places. As long as Xiao Zhan becomes one of the swordsmen, they can stay in Huayan Sect.
Xiao Zhan also knew very well that no one could be a simple swordsman of the Huayan Sect. It was not an easy task for him to replace others.
However, if he succeeds, he will not only be able to keep Sun Hu and others, but also get more training resources, allowing his strength to develop at a faster speed.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Zhan looked at Liu Ruyan and asked:
"To whom should I apply?"
Liu Ruyan said truthfully:
"Normally, it needs to be recommended by the elders, and finally a unified test will be conducted at the end of the year."
"If you want to take the test alone, you must find the Supreme Elder who guards the Huayan Sword."
"If that person doesn't agree, you have to go find an elder to recommend you and wait until the end of the year."
Speaking of this, Liu Ruyan's eyes flashed with disappointment:
"I also participated in the test last year, but unfortunately, I have no fate with Huayan Sword."
"The Supreme Elder's surname is Hei, and his name is Hei Qunfeng."
"Elder Hei rarely participates in the affairs of the sect and is responsible for guarding the Huayan Sword."
"But he has one class every month."
"What you may not know is that this Elder Hei is the number one swordsman in our Huayan Sect."
"Every time he teaches class, the number of disciples watching is the largest."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan took out his disciple's identity card. After injecting a little energy, he saw the identity card emit a curtain of light.
Under Liu Ruyan's guidance, Xiao Zhan soon saw a dark-skinned old man with a square face, explaining the knowledge of swordsmanship calmly.
Liu Ruyan reminded:
"Elder Hei lives in Huayan Pond, the forbidden area of our Huayan Sect."
"It's impossible for you to go directly to him, so I suggest you ask directly."
"This jade token allows you to ask questions."
With that said, Liu Ruyan demonstrated it to Xiao Zhan.
He used his own energy to write a line of handwriting in the air, and with a wave of his hand, the line of handwriting penetrated into the light screen.
In the picture, the black elder paused for a moment, frowned slightly, but did not respond, but continued what he had just said.
Liu Ruyan looked at Xiao Zhan and said softly:
"Let's see if Elder Hei replies to you in a while. If not, go to other elders and see if they are willing to recommend it to you."
After saying that, Liu Ruyan jumped up, flew high into the sky, and disappeared from Xiao Zhan's sight.
Xiao Zhan looked calm at this time.
If the black elder is unwilling to let himself take the assessment alone, then it is not unacceptable for him to find a way to ask other elders to recommend him and wait until the end of the year to take the assessment.
About two hours later, a golden light condensed a line of writing in front of Xiao Zhan:
"An hour later
, come to Huayan Pool. "
Xiao Zhan smiled and immediately jumped into the sky, flying towards the direction of Huayan Pond.
Huayan Pond is the forbidden area of Huayan Sect, located in an endless bamboo forest.
After Xiao Zhan arrived at the outer area, he found that many disciples of the Huayan Sect were patrolling.
"This junior brother," several disciples flew in front of Xiao Zhan and said in a deep voice:
"This is a forbidden area, junior brother, please leave."
Xiao Zhan said truthfully:
"Elder Hei asked me to come."
Hearing this, several disciples were stunned:
"Junior brother, are you going to take the test?"
Xiao Zhan nodded.
These disciples said nothing more and turned to leave.
At this moment, an old and distant voice sounded:
"come in."
Xiao Zhan then rushed into the bamboo forest.
Not long after, Xiao Zhan came to a quiet place.
Here, there is a quiet courtyard and a small two-story bamboo building.
At this time, an old man was sitting cross-legged on the stone slab in the middle of the yard, looking at Xiao Zhan calmly.
Xiao Zhan cupped his fists and said softly:
"I've met the Supreme Elder."
Elder Hei nodded lightly:
"Under normal circumstances, I would not agree to let you take the test alone."
"This is all for the sake of that girl Liu Ruyan."
Xiao Zhan nodded, probably guessing it.
He would not think that he was lucky, nor would he think that Elder Hei would agree to him because he had nothing to do.
Elder Hei stood up at this time and motioned for Xiao Zhan to follow him.
Behind the bamboo building, there is a pool with mist and boiling water.
Xiao Zhan noticed that there were nine ice crystal-like stone monuments around the pool, which were constantly emitting low-temperature cold air.
Elder Hei said slowly:
"These nine stone tablets are made of Earth Yin ice to suppress the high temperature emitted by the Huayan Sword."
"If not, I'm afraid the entire Huayan Sect would have been burned to ashes."
"This is the power of the Huayan Sword."
"Although every sect leader can use the Huayan Sword, they cannot exert the true power of the Huayan Sword at all."
"Our Huayan Sect has also been looking for someone who can truly control the Huayan Sword and lead our Huayan Sect to a higher level!"
Having said this, Elder Hei was silent for a moment and said to Xiao Zhan:
"Step forward."
Xiao Zhan nodded, walked a few steps forward, and stood at the edge of the pool.
Just for a moment, Xiao Zhan frowned.
The cold air emanating from the ice on the earth and the heat waves constantly evaporating from the pool water made him feel as if he were in a world of ice and fire, making his whole body extremely uncomfortable.
After seeing Xiao Zhan's reaction, Elder Hei nodded and said:
"Keep going."
Xiao Zhan took another step and was already standing on the water.
At this moment, the fiery breath instantly enveloped Xiao Zhan. Not only that, Xiao Zhan also felt as if he was locked by endless sword energy, and he would die if he was not careful.
Elder Hei frowned slightly:
"continue!"
Xiao Zhan mobilized his energy, formed an energy shield on his body, and took three steps in a row.
The next moment, surging blazing sword energy bombarded Xiao Zhan without warning.
Xiao Zhan flicked his wrist and held a white bone sword in his hand. As he waved his hand, a piece of sword light shot out, colliding with the sword energy blasting towards him.
For a moment, the entire Huayan Pond was filled with sword energy and the sound of explosions was constant.
