Chapter 580: Spirit Testing
It's time to start recruiting new disciples again.
Unlike the Star Gate, the Ancient God Sect recruits disciples every year. Newcomers will join the sect after each grand ceremony at the First and Second Peaks. The number of people in the third peak is much smaller, and there are qualification restrictions. Most of the time, the third peak cannot recruit people. But this time there has been a change. After Chen Luo, someone new has joined the Third Peak.
The disciples who officially join the Third Peak have different relationships with Chen Luo. The sect will arrange for the Third Peak disciples to attend the ceremony and get to know each other.
Chen Luo didn't go. He has been with Gu Shenzong for nearly four years, and he has never been to a similar event. Normally, he would arrange for Zhang Xi and Lingdong to help him complete such time-wasting things, but today the rules were broken.
“The environment is pretty good.”
A girl in a green dress came up from the bottom of the mountain. Her eyes looked around, as if she was choosing her own place to live. Ling Dong and Zhang Xi followed behind with grimaces, wanting to stop them but not daring to speak.
This girl is the new junior sister.
Like Chen Luo, this girl is also a registered disciple of Venerable Kuchai, and unlike Chen Luo, a rumored disciple, the girl was brought up the mountain by Venerable Kuchai himself. Because of this incident, several of them met Venerable Kuchai. An image that was completely different from what they had imagined. If the other party hadn't appeared in the Ancient God Sect, they would have thought that the old man was an old farmer down the mountain, and he didn't have the aura of Master Huixu at all.
"You go, I will practice here from now on."
The girl waved her hand.
"Junior Sister Le, this is Senior Brother Ding's training ground," Ling Dong reminded him.
But the girl completely ignored his meaning.
They were dismissed with a wave of their hands. The two of them felt miserable and could only keep calling Chen Luo, hoping that their senior brother would not blame them for this matter.
After sending the two of them away, the girl followed the mountain road to the bottom of the valley.
There is a waterfall here.
When the girl walked into the waterfall area, she obviously felt dizzy. But when she came back to her senses, the dizziness disappeared again. She didn't pay attention, walked to the bottom of the waterfall, looked at Chen Luo who was meditating here, squatted down and waved.
"Senior brother, where are you practicing?"
Chen Luo restrained his breath and opened his eyes.
As early as half a month ago, his first round of practice ended. The mixed strength in his body was gathered together by the fibrous roots and grew into two leaves. From the current point of view, the effect of these two leaves has not yet been tested, but the realm of body refining has been improved again, and the ancient Shen Sect's body refining method has reached the realm of transformation into gods.
He noticed the girl when she was going up the mountain.
The dizziness he felt before was caused by the formation he arranged outside.
Looking at this woman, Chen Luo's eyes flashed with surprise. He didn't expect to meet an acquaintance in the Ancient Shen Sect.
Le Qingzhu!
This woman was the friend he had contacted in the fringe area before, and she was also the first Taoist successor he knew. The news that Su Linlin became a saint of the demon clan was learned from her. Later, Chen Luo left the lower boundary of the edge area and cut off contact with the other party, not wanting to meet again here.
However, Chen Luo's current image is not his original appearance, but a brand new vest that was changed after invoking the Fire Demon Lord, the foundation-building monk of the Ancient Shen Sect, 'Ding Luo'.
The same goes for Le Qingzhu.
When Chen Luo met her more than 300 years ago, she was already at the peak level of Nascent Soul. Now that more than 300 years have passed, it is impossible to get back to her level with more practice. No matter how you look at it, there is a conspiracy in it. Reminiscent of the turmoil at the Star Gate, Chen Luo smells an aura called 'trouble'.
"Senior brother, the aura on his body is very strange. It reminds me of an old friend. Tell me, have we seen you somewhere?"
Le Qingzhu was also looking at Chen Luo.
The reason why she chose this place was because she sensed a familiar atmosphere. As a disciple of the Dao Sect, Le Qingzhu never believed in coincidences. In her opinion, all coincidences were man-made arrangements. The Dao Zong behind her has this ability.
There are thousands of wonderful ways to cultivate immortality, and she knows several of them.
"Your routine is outdated."
Chen Luo replied expressionlessly.
No matter what purpose Le Qingzhu had in coming to the Ancient God Sect, he didn't want to get in touch with it, and he wasn't interested in getting involved. Now he just wants to practice quietly and simulate the power of Tao Stone.
Nebula, an ordinary god, can pose a threat to him after using the Tao Stone. He has no reason not to study the power of the Tao Stone. Huapi Laomo also said before that there is a certain probability of reading the information of 'Tao' from the Tao stone and finding an opportunity to break through the realm and return to the void.
Chen Luo naturally couldn't give up this opportunity.
With the help of an external brain, he also successfully found a way. Refining White Spirit Stone Tea and Black Leaf Spirit Flower was the feasible method he found.
"Maybe I made a mistake."
Le Qingzhu didn't look into it carefully. The Star Gate was already in chaos, and more and more people would end up in trouble. Under the overwhelming trend, the Star Gate inevitably became the target of plunder. The sect has entered a real crisis point. If it cannot withstand this round of crisis. It will also become history like the Baixiandong and Qionghua sect.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the upper world.
Except for Shangjiu Sect, who dares to say that he can never fall? Even the Shangjiu Sect has encountered crises, and rotations have occurred thousands of years ago.
The brief exchange ends.
Le Qingzhu didn't stay too long. After confirming that Chen Luo was not someone she knew, she went to the top of the mountain and built a hut there. The two of them didn't interfere with each other, which was quite clean.
A few days later.
Le Qingzhu accepted a sect mission and went down the mountain.
Chen Luo was still practicing behind closed doors. The flower-backed turtle wandering outside came with the second round of supplies that Ding Jian and Yu Wenling had collected.
Star Gate Boundary.
Le Qingzhu fell from the sky riding on the breeze. There was already someone waiting here. Seeing Le Qingzhu's arrival, the figure below immediately stood up, revealing his hidden face. It was the man in green robe who met Venerable Kuchai not long ago at the back mountain of the Ancient Shen Sect.
"The people in the Star Gate have noticed something is wrong. The secret cover is not omnipotent."
As soon as Le Qingzhu fell, the man in green robe spoke.
"Even if you notice it, it's too late."
Le Qingzhu glanced at the man in green robe and said calmly.
"Is the thing buried?"
"Once the sixth-level stone talisman 'Heaven Collapse' is activated, even the Void Returning monks cannot quickly suppress it."
The man in green robe took out a jade talisman from his arms and handed it to Le Qingzhu.
"It's a huge investment."
Le Qingzhu took the stone talisman, sensed the power on it, and nodded with satisfaction.
The changes in the Star Gate were indeed beyond the expectations of the Dao Sect behind her.
Almost every Taoist sect has a plan similar to the Immortal Weapon, it just depends on whether they can control the red line. This time, Qunxing Sect stepped on the red line and touched some taboos, so it was besieged by the other Dao Sects. The group of people behind Qingpao played a big role in this, and the Star Gate was unknowingly tricked by them.
But no one cares about this kind of thing.
Daozong-level forces don't care about the process at all, they only care about the results.
What I saw were the benefits generated after the collapse of the Star Gate.
"Everyone takes what he needs."
The man in green robe said that he hated this thing about Dao Zong people the most. They cherish their reputation and would not enter the market without seeing benefits. They are the ones doing the dirty work! But fortunately, he also has his own purpose. As long as he can open the 'Black Bamboo Forest', he can break this barrier and aspire to a higher realm. If you're lucky, you might be able to be reborn on the corpse of the Star Gate and be promoted to a new Dao Sect.
"Then let's do this. Once the arrangements are completed from the Li Fire Sect, the plan will officially begin."
After putting away the stone talisman, Le Qingzhu turned and left.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to execute such a big plan by himself, and he would have to report to the sect on the follow-up matters.
"I have something I want to trouble you with."
"What's up?"
"Help me test Kuchai's disciple, who is also your nominal senior brother."
The man in green robe said. He had been prepared to fall out with his eldest brother before, but he never expected that the junior Foundation Builder who was 'accidentally killed' by him would come back to life and appear alive and kicking at the third peak of the Ancient God Sect. If the location wasn't too sensitive, he would have wanted to test this person in person.
This kind of uncontrolled variable is what he hates the most.
"good."
Le Qingzhu had similar thoughts, and even if the man in green robe didn't mention it, she would try it out.
That person is so weird.
Even Venerable Kuchai himself didn't understand why he accepted him as a registered disciple. He just felt a affinity with him. This is the most unreasonable part. Coincidences that can affect Master Huixu are the biggest unreasonableness in Le Qingzhu's eyes.
night.
The back mountain of Ancient Shenzong.
Venerable Kuchai was cutting down trees on the mountain. Chen Luo and Le Qingzhu were sitting in the yard watching him cutting trees. Their expressions were like those of guests who came to the mountain, neither of them looked like disciples. Venerable Kuchai doesn't care about this either.
After cutting the bamboo, he returned to the courtyard and sat down opposite the two of them.
I wiped the sweat with the towel on my shoulder, and took a sip of cold water from the bamboo cup.
"What's the matter with calling me here so late?"
After Master Kuchai finished drinking the water, Chen Luo asked. If it hadn't been for the summons from Venerable Kuchai, he would never have thought of leaving the mountain.
"Test it."
Venerable Kuchai glanced at Le Qingzhu next to him, took out a stone from the bamboo basket next to him, and threw it to Chen Luo.
Spirit measuring stone.
This thing is used to test the cultivation level. The piece that Venerable Kuchai gave him is more advanced than the ordinary spirit testing stone. It is a secret treasure at the level of god refining. Even if the cultivator returns to the void, the soul-detecting stone can detect the opponent's details.
The appearance can be changed and the cultivation level can be hidden, but the soul must be one's own.
This is common sense in the world of immortality.
I have never heard of anyone being able to change the frequency of their soul.
"Why are you testing this?"
Chen Luo showed doubts in his eyes, and the Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm brain in his body quickly changed. The moment Chen Luo's palm touched the spirit-detecting stone, the frequency of his soul was changed.
Foundation building is complete!
The spirit-detecting stone lit up, revealing Chen Luo's cultivation.
‘Is it really the Foundation Establishment Realm? ’
Le Qingzhu stared at Chen Luo the whole time, and after seeing the scale displayed on the spirit measuring stone, he subconsciously frowned.
‘Did I guess wrong? '(End of chapter)
