Chapter 262 Unexpected Guest (Chapter Two in One)

   It is foreseeable that many things will change as positions change.

  If it is allowed to develop freely, the familiar classmates in the past will surely drift away.

   But if all of these are maintained by interests, it will be completely different.

   So in the past three years, Liu Yu spread his identity as a second-order alchemist intentionally or unintentionally. Sure enough, some familiar colleagues came to visit,

When    was questioned, Liu Yu frankly admitted his alchemy skills, and promised to sell some elixirs to these fellow students for a limited amount at a relatively favorable price.

   Of course, the number of elixir flowing out is definitely not too much, it should be in line with the number of normal alchemists, but the purpose is still achieved.

  Although there are all kinds of open and secret battles between the Yuanyang three meridians, but the ancestor of Tianfeng is pressing on his head, he still maintains a level of relative restraint, and does not fall into crazy internal friction.

  There is no lack of fighting and friction between the monks of the three veins, but there is also no lack of mutual exchanges in private, so Liu Yu's actions are not taboo.

   Sufficient contacts can reduce the dependence on the Yan family. Although the two sides are still in the "honeymoon period", it is not clear what will happen in the future.

   Liu Yu always likes to make plans early.

   Three years have passed, and tomorrow will be the apprenticeship ceremony. He paced back to the cave, and once again took a look at the rare spiritual herbal books.

   Memorize the shape characteristics, functions and growth conditions of various rare spiritual grasses, whether as an alchemist or walking in the immortal world, they are all useful.

  The lights in the hall stayed on all night, and the owner also kept the lights on for night reading and stayed up all night.

   On the second day, Mao Shi just arrived.

   Liu Yu, who had not slept for several days and nights, was still in high spirits. He put a few thick books of rare spirit sketchbooks into a storage bag, sorted out his clothes a little, and left the cave.

Although the cultivation base has reached the peak of the initial stage of foundation building, Liu Yu immediately ran the hidden spirit technique as soon as he left the cave, and hid the cultivation base mana for a small part. Fast forward to a small point.

  The use of high-grade spiritual tools in the early stage of foundation building is still too conspicuous.

   adheres to the principle of keeping a low profile as much as possible. Although he already has four high-grade spiritual tools in his hand, he is not ready to show it to the public until it is absolutely necessary.

   He will not blindly keep a low profile, but those who should be humble will still be humble.

   One patted the storage bag and took out the Soul Chasing Blade. Liu Yu skillfully controlled the magic weapon and soared into the sky, turning into a black light and flying towards Tongtian Peak.

  Jiang Qiushui also met the conditions for participating in the ceremony, but Liu Yu "discussed" with the woman and "persuaded" her not to participate. She agreed without any hesitation.

  Although the Primordial Spirit prohibition planted according to the magical method is extremely secret, it is still possible to discover it by careful investigation by the Jindan cultivator.

  If Jiang Qiushui's luck is valued by an elder, it will undoubtedly increase the variables.

   Liu Yu simply let this girl sit in the Venus Jade Pill Hall and not watch the apprenticeship ceremony.

  Tongtian Peak is the only fourth-order spiritual mountain in the range of Yuanyang Zongshan Gate. It has reached a level close to the fourth-order high-grade. It is the absolute center of Yuanyang Sect.

  The seven main peaks surround it for a hundred miles, and spread out from this mountain as the center. Generally speaking, the closer to the Lingshan Mountain of Tongtian Peak, the higher the level of Lingshan's spiritual veins, except for special cases.

This situation is said to have started after Yuanyangzong ruled Qingzhou and became the hegemon. It is said that the ancestor of Yuanying at that time washed the remnants of the previous generation's forces with blood, slaughtered all the disciples of his disciples, and used the great supernatural power of moving mountains and reclaiming seas on his spiritual veins. , forcibly migrated to Yuanyang Zongshan Gate, and created the current pattern.

  Tongtian Peak condenses the most essence of Yuanyang Sect. There are nearly 200 foundation-building cultivators cultivating in it. Elder Jindan also has more than ten people living here.

  Liu Yu rode the light for a while, until three hours later, a majestic Lingshan came into view.

  The bell of Tongtian Peak is sensitive and majestic, reaching an astonishing height of more than 3,000 meters. It is only surrounded by clouds and mists at the mountainside. As for the higher places, only a hazy black shadow can be seen through the clouds and mists.

   From a distance, it looks like a giant pillar supporting the sky, which seems to play a role in connecting the sky and the earth, connecting the two into a whole.

   In the eyes of ordinary mortals, or low-level monks, this is a legend and a myth!

   No matter how many times he saw it, Liu Yu was still shocked.

   Even if he has reached the realm of foundation building, under the majestic Tongtian Peak, he is as small as an ant.

   The distance gradually approached, Liu Yu calmed the ripples in the heart lake, retracted his gaze, and controlled the light to fall towards the foot of Tongtian Peak.

   On the top of the mountainside is the cave residence of Elder Jindan and Patriarch Yuanying. The cultivators of the foundation cannot go there for no reason, and the ceremony of accepting disciples is naturally held at the foot of the mountain.

   The sun was not so hot anymore, shining on a square at the foot of Tongtian Peak.

  This square is extremely wide, with a length and width of three or four hundred zhang initially estimated to be called Zhenyang Dojo.

  In the east of the square, many pavilions and waterside buildings are built, all of which are mainly simple and natural, not very luxurious and beautiful.

  If it was a normal day, some cultivators of foundation establishment would sit here and talk about the Dao, exchanging practice experiences and various knowledge, and if there was a disagreement with the idea, they would often be red-faced.

   On the west side of the square, five 20-foot-long and wide fighting platforms were built, all of which were made of black diamonds capable of refining top-grade instruments, which made countless monks sigh at the generosity of the sect.

   also invited a brilliant array master to take action, and engraved various advanced runes such as firmness, fire resistance, ice resistance, etc. on the fighting table, which are enough to withstand the fighting skills of the base-building cultivators.

  If a cultivator has newly developed a powerful spell, or obtained a powerful magic weapon, he can invite friends to come to the stage to learn from each other.

   Every few years or more than ten years, elders of Jindan appear here to preach and teach the experience of practice. If the elders are in a good mood for a certain period of time, they may be able to listen to the sermon for several years in a row.

   Of course, the monks who come here to listen to the sermon are not limited to those who live in Tongtian Peak in the cave dwelling. The monks who choose to open up a cave dwelling in Zongnei Lingshan can also come here.

  Liu Yuguang landed on the Zhenyang Dojo, put the Soul Chasing Blades in the storage bag, and then walked towards the building on the east side of the Dojo.

   At this time, there were nearly 200 monks scattered in the building complex on the other side of the dojo, either drinking spirit tea and spirit wine alone, or gathering in twos and threes to discuss current affairs, scolding Fang Qiu and pointing the country.

  Tongtian Peak Cave Mansion, even if it is at the foot of the mountain, can only be owned in the early stage of foundation building, so the disciples in the Qi refining stage generally cannot approach the Tongtian Peak, and naturally they cannot come to watch the apprenticeship ceremony.

   Therefore, out of the two hundred people, only a dozen or so people are in the realm of qi refining. Obviously, these people have a lot of background.

   As for the other 100 or 100 Foundation Establishment cultivators, most of them came to watch the fun. Liu Yu did not believe that there were so many cultivators who met the conditions. In that case, the competition would be too fierce.

   The feeling of cultivating is very comfortable, but the ascetic life has been dull and boring for ten years, and not all monks can bear it.

   It happened to be a once-forty-yearly event, and it was normal to be lively, he completely understood.

   Not to mention, maybe you can get acquainted in front of Elder Jindan?

  Liu Yu found the senior who was in charge of registration, politely handed over the Zongmen token, and briefly explained his situation, successfully registered and completed the registration.

   Then he turned his eyes and glanced at the pavilion and water pavilion, planning to sit in one place first. After all, the apprenticeship ceremony will only start at Xu, and there are still several hours left. It is too conspicuous to stand here all the time.

   "Junior Brother Liu, this way!"

   At this moment, a familiar voice came.

   "Cui Liang" and "Qian Zhijin"

   Liu Yu turned his head calmly, and saw two more familiar classmates, sitting in a small booth and greeting him.

   Cui Liang, a hungry ghost, is already very familiar with it.

   As for the more greedy senior brother, Liu Yu has a good impression of him. Although this person is a little greedy, at least he has good credit for collecting spirit stones, and he is still very principled.

   He likes to associate with this kind of monk who is trustworthy and principled.

With a smile on his face, Liu Yu walked over to the small pavilion, and when he got closer, he bowed his hands and greeted warmly:

   "Brother Cui, Brother Qian."

   "Senior Brother Qian, we haven't seen each other for many years. We haven't congratulated Brother Qian for building the foundation."

   "I didn't expect that in the previous sentence, you and I were both promoted to Foundation Establishment, and we didn't even need to change the title, which saved a lot of effort."

   Both are foundation building, so naturally the two of them won’t support each other, and they also stand up and hand in hand.

  Qian Zhijin smiled and said:

   "When I saw it that day, I felt that Junior Brother Liu was very extraordinary, and he was definitely not something in the pool."

   "It seems that today's guess is not wrong. Junior Brother Liu really broke through the bottleneck of foundation building."

   "What's even more rare is that the younger brother is also making great strides in the way of alchemy. If things go on like this, there will be a bright future in the future!"

   He said so, obviously already knew about Liu Yu's deeds.

   Qian Zhijin's mood was very complicated, but he saw with his own eyes that Liu Yu was promoted from an ordinary outer sect disciple to an inner sect in a short period of time. Later, he broke through the foundation building and became a second-order alchemist. It can be said that the road is smooth.

  The care of the Yan family? Or another adventure?

   Qian Zhijin is unknown, but he understands that such monks must not offend.

   "Where, where, Brother Qian has won the prize!"

   "It is also extremely dangerous to build a foundation under the ground. It was just a fluke that I succeeded. The alchemy thing is also a flash of inspiration, and it has just made great progress."

   "It's pure luck, and I can't be praised by Senior Brother Qian."

Liu Yu is already quite familiar with the   commercial blows, so he calmly diverted the topic with a haha.

   "Junior Brother Liu is here to participate in the apprenticeship ceremony?"

   "Then you and Junior Brother Qian might even become rivals."

   The three of them sat down in the chat room, and Cui Liang joked with a smile.

   "I'm just showing off my strengths a little bit. The choice is entirely up to the elders."

   "It has little to do with each other, the key lies in the choice of the elders, and it is not a competitor at all."

   "If the elder sees the right eye, it's not impossible to pick three or five in a row. If the elder doesn't intend to do this, it won't matter much in any way."

   Liu Yu shook his head slightly and said with a smile.

   "Junior Brother Liu is right, that's exactly what it is!"

  Qian Zhijin nodded lightly, agreeing with this statement, and then sighed softly.

   said here, the atmosphere suddenly became condensed.

  Cui Liang smiled when he saw this, and took the initiative to talk about some topics between men to adjust the atmosphere in the pavilion.

   As soon as he talked about this Qian Zhijin, he became energetic. The two had a "strange" smile on their faces, and they talked endlessly, as if they had a common hobby.

   "Money and **** don't separate families."

   Liu Yu sighed when he saw this.

   But if the two of them knew that he was already an "internal disciple", how would he feel?

   Next, Liu Yu listened most of the time, and occasionally inserted a sentence or two, but obviously he did not pay attention to it, and his eyes began to wander among the pavilions and waterside pavilions.

   The foundation-building cultivators present, only a very small part of him can be called by name, most of them are unfamiliar or familiar.

  Suddenly, Liu Yu's eyes stopped, fixed on a monk wearing a red robe, with a white face and fiery red eyebrows.

   It can be seen that his cultivation base is still in the category of newly promoted foundation building, but there is a faint evil spirit on his body, which can only be formed if there are too many monks of the same rank beheaded.

   "If you guessed correctly, this person is Zhou Yan, the famous "Little Flame Demon" during the Qi refining period, right?"

   Liu Yu flashed this thought. Although he had never met, judging from his cultivation and appearance, he was 80% sure.

   According to rumors, Zhou Yan is extremely talented in fire attribute spells.

   Those fiery red eyebrows are obviously due to the high level of fire attribute exercises, and their exercises are definitely not ordinary exercises.

   Maybe it was because he had been watched for a long time. The red-browed man who seemed quite aloof when drinking alone was aware of it.

   seems to be due to his nature, his eyes are a bit fierce.

  Liu Yu didn't secretly observe the guilty conscience that was discovered, and looked at him calmly, that bit of suffocation was like a breeze on his face.

   Two moments later, the two of them looked away at the same time.

   "Junior Brother Liu, this person is the Zhou Yan who made a big splash in the Cold Mist Camp and then returned to the sect to build the foundation."

   "This man became famous because of the battle of Lingshi Mine, and even several elders have heard of it."

   "With this person's reputation, I think he is very sure this time, and he is very likely to be favored by a certain elder."

   "It's not impossible to be directly accepted as a direct disciple, I really envy me!"

  Qian Zhijin noticed Liu Yu's gaze, so he opened his mouth to explain, and he looked envious, mixed with a trace of jealousy.

  Liu Yu nodded slightly after hearing this, thoughtfully.

   couldn't help comparing his own strength with that in his heart, and the answer he finally got was that during the Qi refining period, the two should not be much different.

   But when he reached the realm of foundation building, his cultivation, spiritual awareness, spiritual tools, spells, and many other aspects made rapid progress, and he should have far surpassed the opponent.

  During the conversation, waiting for a few hours did not feel long, and the time came to the end of the time.

At this time, the sky has dimmed, and the lotus lanterns with huge night pearls rose to the sky under the control of a monk, arranged into the iconic flame pattern of Yuanyang Sect, illuminating the entire Zhenyang Dojo. Bright as day.

   "The time has come, all the juniors and brothers who participated in the ceremony should stand up."

   "As for those who came to watch the ceremony, please stand in the building and watch the ceremony, and don't lose your dignity in front of the elders."

  When the time was up, the head of Zhuang Ziling stood on the square and used amplification magic to spread the sound throughout the pavilions and waterside pavilions.

   There are many famous monks in the field. Some monks can not buy the tent of Zhuangziling, but the elders of Jindan will come later, but they must not lose their etiquette.

   So the monks who participated in the ceremony walked out of the building, and the ceremony was to stay in the building and watch.

   Liu Yu and Qian Zhijin left the pavilion together and came to the square, waiting for the arrival of the elders.

   After a rough count, there were 63 Foundation Establishment cultivators participating in the ceremony.

   "There are about ten more people than before."

   Liu Yu raised his brows and came to this conclusion.

   Decided to participate in the apprenticeship ceremony. He naturally learned about this information. He knew that in recent years, there were generally around 50 people who met the conditions.

   Could it be that the sect was because of the war?

   shook his head, Liu Yu didn't think much about it, and waited quietly without looking sideways with his arms around his chest.

   But after some time passed, the elders still did not arrive. Some monks with insufficient temperament began to lose their temper. Although they did not whisper, they began to look around.

"That is.?"

  Suddenly, a cultivator looked towards the south and couldn't help but utter a surprised tone.

   Liu Yu moved in his heart and looked in the same direction.

  I saw the sky in the south, with a red and a white light, galloping at an extremely fast speed.

  As the distance gets closer, the spiritual pressure attached to the light becomes stronger and stronger. This level of spiritual pressure is also very powerful among Jindan cultivators.

   Even Liu Yu felt as if there was a huge boulder pressing down on his heart, and it was very uncomfortable like a scorpion in his throat.

   But what surprised him even more was that the magic weapon in the light had been seen in the Cold Mist Spirit Stone Mine, and the memory was very deep.

   The silver-white flying sword magic weapon of the waning moon valley! The red embroidered building magic weapon on the side of Piaoxue Pavilion!
