All around, there was silence.
Everyone watched the much-anticipated young genius ascend to the high platform, as if at this moment, they were sure that they were two geniuses who had emerged from the sky.
No one would doubt Zhang Chen's qualifications, because he was so precocious in his youth and had already proven that his spiritual sea was wide open, a vision that could only be achieved by extraordinary qualifications.
Seeing the expectant looks in everyone's eyes, Zhang Chen smiled in his heart, disapprovingly, and slowly walked forward. Chang Jing had heard about this man's deeds in Lingxiao Sect. After testing Lin Qingfeng's qualifications, he, who was already in high spirits, looked at the young man in front of him seriously.
Zhang Chen stretched out his hand, neither humble nor arrogant, with a calm expression. In Chang Jing's eyes, he even surpassed Lin Qingfeng. After all, Lin Qingfeng still had a young heart. Although he suppressed the joy in his heart, in Chang Jing's eyes, the expression on his face could still be seen. As for this person, Chang Jing couldn't see it. In a daze, the person in front of him didn't look like a young man, but as if he was his master standing in front of him. Chang Jing slowly put the spiritual energy into Zhang Chen's body. For a moment, his expression tightened and he was shocked, "No, this is not right."
Yes! No, this is too ordinary. The sour feeling when the spiritual energy enters is as usual, completely unlike the feeling when it entered Lin Qingfeng's body before. Zhang Chen slowly felt the spiritual energy entering his body. The spiritual energy flowed through his body like a long stream of water, and the breath in his body expanded, as if there was a huge pressure.
Zhang Chen persisted, and the pressure gradually gathered in his Dantian, forming a ball of light. The many meridians in his body were unfolding at this moment, greedily absorbing the spiritual energy. He vaguely felt a mark attached to his dantian, just like in his previous life, as if he was destined.
That is the seal of heaven, which recognizes the qualifications for every practitioner to practice.
God gives you hope.
It is said that in ancient times, the human race was weak and alien species were rampant. Human beings with fragile bodies were unable to deal with the ferocious beasts of the wild and were gradually being eaten away and on the verge of extinction. At that time, the human emperor Taiyu led his people to travel through the four regions, cross nine rivers, and climb thousands of mountains. He has tasted hundreds of herbs and experienced life and death, just to seek strength and wisdom that can help the human race overcome the difficult years and move towards the future. And how can power and wisdom be obtained so easily?
The clan members gradually withered away, and in the end there were less than a hundred people left.
Taiyu finally felt desperate and prayed to God.
God, no!
In the dream, Taiyu was in total darkness, confused and helpless. Only when he was about to sink deep into it did he find the light. Taiyu clung to this beam of light and did not dare to let it go. This light guided Taiyu and turned into a magic formula. Taiyu led his tribe to practice the secret method and obtain the immortal way.
The human race was able to reproduce.
Later generations asked what the name of this light was. It was the opposite of Jue. Taiyu pondered and wrote: hope.
-------
When I have no strength at this time, my wisdom cannot help me overcome the difficulties.
Then give your heart completely to hope, hold on to this light tightly, and never let it go. Zhang Chen's face turned red, as if Han Qing was opening his pulse. But Zhang Chen's expression did not change, because the spiritual energy turned into a beam of light, gathering in his dantian like hope.
For a moment, Zhang Chen only felt a sense of mystery, and a mysterious and mysterious feeling surged into his heart. His whole body trembled, his mind was agitated, and he was like an arrow from a bow, flying into the distance. At this moment, my mind went blank, and my body that was originally hot softened and seemed to fly up into the clouds.
Zhang Chen opened his mouth slightly and let out a breath of turbid air. At this time, he felt his body and realized that he was covered in sweat. Zhang Chen was slightly distracted and then recovered. He searched his body and found that spiritual energy had gathered in his Dantian.
All the meridians can be opened! This is his hope for eternal life. It is also the beginning of the great road.
Unlike Zhang Chen's comfort, Chang Jing's face looked a little weird for the first time. He looked at Zhang Chen, tried again in disbelief, and finally accepted the fact helplessly.
"Zhang Chen, spiritual bones."
The whole place fell into silence.
Zhang Chen put his mind away. When he heard the result, he was unmoved and smiled calmly, "As always."
"Is it really a spiritual bone? Did Immortal Master Chang Jing make any omissions?" The elder of the Youlin family couldn't believe it and spoke rashly.
When Chang Jing heard this, his face became solemn, and his sharp eyes swept over the clan elder who spoke, making the man shudder. Chang Jing said coldly: "Are you questioning me?"
"Don't dare." The clan elder said, and Zhang Chen turned around and calmly walked down the platform.
At this time, everyone reacted one after another. I didn't know who spoke first, and the crowd suddenly exploded, with unconcealable comments one after another.
"How is it possible! Zhang Chen is a spirit bone?"
"His qualifications are only spiritual bones!"
"He is a recognized genius among our generation, and his reputation is even greater than that of Lin Qingfeng. But he is just a ghost!"
The whole place was talking a lot, and all kinds of eyes were looking at Zhang Chen.
Zhang Yue's expression was complicated at this time. She looked at her brother who had grown up like a star and said, "Brother..." She still can't believe that her brother, who is such a genius and outstanding person, is just a human being. Spiritual bone qualifications.
She believed from the bottom of her heart that her brother would have immortal bones, and he might even have immortal bones that surpassed what ordinary people knew!
Not only her, Lin Ye, Mrs. Lin, and even Lin Qingfeng himself, but even the entire clan, including the entire Yuan Kingdom and some people from the Lingxiao Sect, all thought so.
But now, this result gave everyone a big slap in the face.
"Damn it, it's just a spiritual bone qualification, and he actually allowed me to use so many natural resources and treasures, and to take care of him with such good treatment for more than ten years, and I'm still afraid of him." Lin Ye clenched his fists tightly and sighed. His tone and face were gloomy and uncertain.
Mrs. Lin was both happy and angry. What she was happy about was that this guy was actually a silver-gun wax man. He had been pretending to be so powerful all these years, but when he opened his pulse, he turned out to be close to a useless person. What made him angry was that she was really fooled. , taking care of him like a buffoon all these years. But this can be considered a turn of events, and Zhang Chen and Zhang Yue will no longer have the chance to leave the legacy of their parents in Tianbao Pavilion.
Lin Qingfeng couldn't keep a calm expression. He regarded him as his biggest competitor, but he didn't expect that he only had spiritual bone qualifications. After going to Lingxiao Sect, he would only be an outer disciple at most, and he might even be demoted to a handyman disciple.
He was a little confused for a moment. He had spent the past four years trying so hard to deal with Zhang Chen. What was he trying to do, and all his efforts were in vain? After thinking for a while, he put away his thoughts. This piece of Chen would never be able to impress him again.
Some of the rest of the Lin family frowned, some talked to each other, and some couldn't help but sigh.
"How is this possible? The more qualified a boy is, the more he will show characteristics that are far beyond ordinary people!"
"This shows that characteristics do not represent qualifications, which can be regarded as a lesson. Everything is subject to the results of the pulse test!"
"Alas, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Fortunately, there is still Master Qingfeng, otherwise the Lin family would be really...sigh..."
…
Walking down from the high platform and back to the original position, the path was very short, but it seemed a bit long now.
Zhang Chen's face was calm, as indifferent as ever, and as smooth as ever. There were people around him. He could clearly see the expressions of other people, and he could also feel the gazes of those of his peers.
There was surprise, ridicule, schadenfreude, understanding, and even more disdain and indifference.
Compared to the same situation as in his previous life, Zhang Chen couldn't control his thoughts, as if he had gone back to the past.
At that time, I was in a state of embarrassment and was in a daze. I even accidentally lost my footing while walking up the steps from the high platform. My ankles hurt and I was lost. No one came to help me get up, not even my sister.
Disappointment, indifference, ridicule, schadenfreude, these countless looks and expressions are like an ice blade piercing my heart over and over again. My thoughts are blank, as if I have lost myself, my chest hurts, and there is nothing more sad than heart death.
It's like being on the top of a cloud platform and suddenly falling into the mortal world.
In a daze, he walked on the road and saw his past self in his eyes.
He knelt on the ground, his face changed from delicate to ferocious, and he looked at his bruised and bloody hands in disbelief, "Why..."
He dragged his sprained ankle and crawled on the ground like a bereaved dog, "This is not true! Is it right? How could I have spiritual bone qualifications? There must be a mistake somewhere. Elder Chang Jing must have made a mistake in the test... "
He was unwilling to accept his mediocrity, but when he raised his head, he saw a look of disappointment, "I should obviously use my own advantages to create a world after time travel!"
"I should obviously have the qualifications for immortal bones! I should obviously start the road of cultivating immortality in an unrestrained way and become what everyone calls the proud man of heaven!"
"not like this!"
"Dont look at me!"
"This is all fake! It's all fake, I'm just dreaming! Don't even look at me, get out!"
…
Zhang Chen looked at him with a calm expression.
The boy shed tears and growled: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I let others down! Sister, I am no longer qualified to protect you, I can't do it anymore!"
Zhang Chen looked at him, laughed dumbly, and asked: "Do you regret it?"
"I regret so much, I hate it so much, why did God play such a joke on me? I shouldn't have been so crazy before, I shouldn't have been so proud of my talent..."
"With my previous attitude, how will my tribe see me, and how will my sister see me!"
"My sister...how should I protect her? How should the two of us survive in the sect and the Lin family in the future!"
Zhang Chen was speechless and stopped looking at the boy who lowered his head, "It's okay."
Then, Zhang Chen raised his head and looked ahead, "The reason why life is wonderful lies in the journey of pursuit."
"Clan members? Relatives? What do they have to do with me?"
The young man looked at Zhang Chen. He stood up regardless of the pain, pointed at Zhang Chen and shouted: "You are ungrateful, you are heartless, you don't even care about your own blood relatives! You are a devil. , this is the devil's way, this is wrong! To become a monk, you should help those in need, save the common people, and repay your kindness!"
Zhang Chen was silent.
"Help those in need?"
Zhang Chen sighed.
"A chivalrous person?"
Zhang Chen took another step forward.
"Save the common people?"
The figure gradually moved further and further away from the embarrassed young man.
"Repaying kindness, blood relatives, love and hatred...the devil's way...ha."
Gradually, the figure of the young man faded away.
"Before we reach eternal life, both you and I are insignificant."
"Only achieving eternal life is the true meaning of the great road."
Zhang Chen raised his head, the light was still bright.
The boy behind him stopped making any sound.
Zhang Chen turned around and could no longer see the shadow of the young man.
"..."
"Maybe this is the difference between you and me, my previous life."
…
"Alas..." Everyone finally accepted this fact. Most of the elders of the Lin family sighed. The recording officer looked at the final list. There was only one name on it, "Next, Zhang Yue."
Zhang Yue was a little confused, and she didn't come back to her senses until the voice of the elder of the Lin family came.
She staggered forward, not looking like a lady at all, and almost fell down because of the too-long skirt. Fortunately, she was supported by a hand and held up.
"It's so embarrassing!" Lin Ye was a little bored.
The audience couldn't suppress the ridicule, and some teenagers even whistled indecently because of Zhang Yue's beauty, which made Zhang Yue even more embarrassed and angry.
Zhang Yue raised her head and looked at that person. All she saw was Zhang Chen's calm face.
Zhang Yue was a little at a loss. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
She looked around and felt that everyone was not paying attention. She looked at Lin Qingfeng unconsciously, but it seemed that Lin Qingfeng didn't see her and was minding his own thoughts.
Zhang Yue was very nervous, but at this moment she heard the calm voice of her brother beside her: "Go, the road is at your feet."
Zhang Yue was surprised. Zhang Chen was a little far away from everyone at this time, but Zhang Yue was very close. She could see clearly that her brother was so calm and indifferent. When he spoke, he even had a hint of joy. His tone revealed a deep sense of amusement.
Zhang Yue was surprised. She didn't understand why her brother looked like this, so calm, so indifferent.
"Isn't he qualified for spiritual bone? Why can he be so calm?" Zhang Yue's heart was full of doubts.
"Go." Zhang Chen said without saying anything more. Finally, he touched Zhang Yue's head, just like he did five or six years ago.
Zhang Yue looked dazed, and her body continued to move forward unconsciously.
"Even my brother has only spiritual bone qualifications. If it were me, I would probably only have mortal bones. In the future, I would probably marry an ordinary person, husband and raise children..." She was thinking a lot, and all her actions were just inertia, doing what she should do unconsciously. Although he was exercising, he didn't know that Chang Jing's expression in front of him suddenly changed a little.
It was Chang Jing's words that finally brought her back to her senses. At this moment, she had the whole audience watching, and everyone looked in disbelief.
"Zhang Yue, Immortal Bone Qualification!"
The whole place was boiling.
"Oh my God! Another Immortal Bone Qualification!"
"I didn't expect that the Lin family would have two immortal disciples! I didn't expect that it was not Lin Qingfeng and Zhang Chen, but Zhang Yue!"
"It's unbelievable. His brother still has spiritual bone qualifications. I didn't expect that when he came to Zhang Yue, a miracle happened!"
Zhang Yue was still a little confused, but Chang Jing smiled and said, "Congratulations to my future junior sister."
Before she could react, her hand was already held by another person. When she looked up, she saw Lin Qingfeng's gentle eyes, "Cousin, congratulations."
