Chapter 170 Compensation
Should be the final test.
The pressure around Zhou Shu increased a lot, as if the grass on the thatched cottage had grown a lot longer, and the waves surged towards him, wrapping him tightly so that he couldn't move, his hands and feet were bound, and it was hard to move. to breathe.
This feeling was extremely real, he suddenly felt that all this was not perception, but real existence, and the surrounding thatch really grew over, endlessly.
Surrounded by boundless thatch, they are as sharp as knives, cutting on the body piece by piece, the pain is unbearable, but there is no trace of scar.
Is this a formula, a formation, or something else?
Zhou Shu couldn't tell the difference, but his mind would never be affected by them, and he would say what he shouldn't say.
With the sharp blade on his body, Zhou Shu still straightened his body and said loudly, "everything my disciple said is what I think in my heart, and there is absolutely no falsehood."
Shen Wen stared at Zhou Shu, and after a while, finally nodded, "Very well, it is really a blessing that the sect has a disciple like you."
He put away the wooden sword in his hand, and at the same time, the thatched grass around Zhou Shu disappeared, and even more strangely, the thatched cottage also disappeared.
The three of them stood on the top of the peak without any shelter.
With the disappearance of thatched grass, Zhou Shu gradually stood firm. His mind was shocked, and he suddenly realized that it was not the real thatched cottage, but Shen Wen's sword intent.
To use the sword intent to such an extent.
He couldn't release his consciousness, he could only perceive it with his five senses, so he couldn't see it clearly, but he never expected that such vivid grass was transformed by sword intent, completely false and real, Shen Wen's sword intent transformed into nothing but Afraid to reach the realm of perfection.
He looked at Shen Wen in shock and was speechless for a while.
"Do as you said before, Yunli."
Shen Wen didn't explain either, and said something to Yunli, then he drew his sword and stepped into the cloud, and there was no trace in an instant.
Zhou Shu silently stood there.
Those sword intents are as real as they are illusory. They not only have spiritual power but also spiritual consciousness. They can affect people's hearts more than formations and formulas. If the mind is a little unstable, they will be taken advantage of. Fortunately, Shen Wen's test would not exceed the range of Qi Refining Realm cultivators, and Zhou Shu's spiritual consciousness was far stronger than ordinary Qi Refining Realm cultivators, so he was not affected.
He looked at Yunli beside him, his expression was a little bit bad.
He has been wronged by himself, and he still has to be treated like this. If it were someone else, he might have exploded. However, he has been a human being in two lives, and he knows that he needs to endure more at this time, so he remains calm, but there are many grievances in his heart.
He really wanted to ask, why is this, and is it necessary.
Yun Li's expression was still calm, but the previous worries were gone, and a hearty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's a good thing you didn't say anything against the sect, which made me worry about you for a while."
Zhou Shu was slightly taken aback, "What will happen if I say so?"
Yun Li's face suddenly became a little serious, "What do you think? You are carrying a big secret that is related to the life and death of the Zongmen, but you have resentment towards the Zongmen, what will the Zongmen do to you?"
"The big secret..."
Zhou Shu murmured a few times in his heart, and suddenly realized, his heart was shaken, "Didn't I make a vow of demons about that matter?"
It suddenly occurred to him that there was indeed a secret about the life and death of the Heyin faction in him, the Secret Realm of the Sea of Sand, but he never thought of revealing it, because the secret realm that only he can safely enter is even more secret to him, even without an oath It is also impossible to tell others.
But the Zongmen didn't know what Zhou Shu was thinking, and kept focusing on Zhou Shu, worrying that Zhou Shu would feel resentful and leak the news of the secret realm of the Heyin School to other sects, which would put the Heyin School in a desperate situation.
It's no wonder that Shen Wen took such a test just now, only Yunli could find him, and the others basically didn't know about it.
Zhou Shu didn't think of this before, but now thinking about it, he feels a little scared. If he said resentment just now, he really dare not think about the consequences.
"If the resentment reaches the extreme, some people would rather break their oath and die. Fortunately, you are not such a person. Even if you are wronged, you still put the sect first. I believe that after this time, the sect will It’s going to do you a lot of good by putting more value on you.”
Yun Li nodded slightly, quite relieved.
Zhou Shu was still a little puzzled, "Since he was worried that I would reveal the secret, why didn't Elder Shen solve the matter earlier? Don't you worry about me leaking the secret during this time?"
"You can't blame Elder Shen. He just returned to the mountain, and he came to do it as soon as he knew about it. There was no delay. This matter involves the practitioners of the Pulse Condensation Realm and Elder Shen. The other peak masters have no right to deal with it, so they can only wait for Shen. The elders came back, but they didn't ignore them, because of you, the three peak masters had countless disputes, if Guo Feng master hadn't insisted on being loyal to the sect, I'm afraid you would have already..."
Yun Li looked at Zhou Shu with a wry smile.
Zhou Shu nodded, knowing that in the end he was just an outer disciple. If he knew such a secret in other sects, he would probably have been silenced by the sect long ago. Dead people keep secrets.
The world of cultivating immortals is cruel.
Yun Li continued, "Elder Zhao is still inside, Elder Yuan can't get out of seclusion, Elder Jin doesn't care about anything once he makes alchemy, and only Elder Shen can solve it. Don't be resentful if it drags on for a while."
"I see, I see."
Zhou Shu nodded understandingly, "Since it passed, how did the matter be resolved? What does Elder Shen want senior brother to do?"
"You don't have to worry, the Heyin faction has clear rewards and punishments."
Yun Li smiled, and took out a few things.
Zhou Shu's eyes were fixed on those few things immediately, and he couldn't move away.
"Don't worry, what's yours is yours after all."
Yun Li smiled, picked up a black arm guard and handed it to him, "This is a black light arm guard, first-grade high-grade, with two magic formulas, it is very suitable for body refiners, you can experience it yourself, it is absolutely valuable The price is better than many Tier 2 magic weapons. By the way, this magic weapon was made by Liu Yixiu, and it is one of the sect's treasures."
Zhou Shu took the wristband, quite angry, "Liu Yixiu, what's wrong with him?"
Mentioning this person made Zhou Shu very angry. Speaking of him, he was even more hateful than Hong Yuan. He not only corrupted the materials, but also insulted Xu Lie.
Yun Li nodded, "It's a very bad act to embezzle a disciple's materials. Even though he is a pulse condensing practitioner, he must be punished. Three hundred thousand will be deducted from his contribution, three years' supplies will be stripped, and twenty During the year, you can only refine weapons for the sect, and you cannot accept business from other disciples."
The punishment is indeed heavy. I don't know how long it will take to save 300,000 yuan. Moreover, I can only do things for the sect with good craftsmanship and cannot help other people refine weapons. It is tantamount to losing the biggest source of income.
Zhou Shu was a little relieved, but still felt regretful, "It's still not enough, it's too light. Is this magic weapon compensation, brother, what about my bullying?"
Yun Li shook his head, "Hua Feng, there is only one in the sect, and you have to rely on yourself to get it back. Although Hong Yuan resorted to tricks, he still bought it from Liu Yixiu with Lingshi. The sect cannot punish him for this, but you have to understand that not punishing him is not because he is Elder Shen's disciple."
Zhou Shu nodded, with a calm expression, "That's fine, it's just what I want."
Yun Li praised, "That's right, what is lost must be taken back with one's own hands. This is the true meaning of a cultivator's cultivation of immortality. If it is faked by human hands, it will be against the original heart. When you encounter injustice, you don't ask the sect for help, but directly ask the sect for help without any scruples." I admire his challenge, and even Elder Shen is very grateful, so he doesn't intend to hinder you, let you have a fair competition."
Zhou Shu smiled faintly, noncommittal.
Is it fair? It's not fair.
But he doesn't complain, knowing that there is little such thing as fairness anywhere. It's just that in the world of cultivating immortals, as long as he is strong enough, he can strive for fairness, and even define what fairness is. He looks forward to that day and is sure that it will come.
"I know what you're thinking. It's not fair. Regardless of your realm or cultivation level, Junior Brother Hong has already taken advantage of his status as a direct disciple. However, your cultivation environment is far inferior to his. You can't even take on the mission, so you can't delay it." Chores."
Yunli looked serious, "But what you did before deserves some fairness from the sect. If you want more, you need to work hard on your own. You don't have to complain. Every cultivator in the world of cultivating immortals comes here like this."
Zhou Shu smiled, "Brother, I never complain."
"The token of Panyu Cave, six months should be enough for you to cultivate to the tenth level of Qi Refining Realm."
A token fell into Zhou Shu's hand.
Looking at the token, Zhou Shu shook his head and smiled wryly. Most of the disciples dream of this thing, but it is of no use to him. He can only cultivate with liquid medicine because his energy channel is damaged. There is still one hidden in the storage bag, which has never been used.
Yunli didn't notice Zhou Shu's expression, and pointed to the other two things, "You need to choose one of these two."
A jade bottle, and a spiritual herb with only one leaf.
When Yun Li opened the jade bottle, Zhou Shu couldn't help being slightly taken aback, "Building Foundation Pill?"
Inside the jade bottle lies an almost pure and transparent pill, as blue as water, with a few ripples looming back and forth, it is not an ordinary thing.
The problem that was still entangled before seems to be easily solved now.
