Killing God

Chapter 22 The Circle

Sitting in the middle of the stone steps, the two teenagers chatted without saying a word. By calming down the mood of escaping from death just now, while talking, they found that the two of them actually got along quite well. Although Sun You seems to be from one of the largest families under the Lingxiao Sect, his speech and demeanor are very casual and gentle, and he doesn't look domineering by relying on his family background at all; Shen Shi casually said a few words about his previous life It also brightened the eyes of Sun You, who grew up in Floating Cloud City and never traveled far, especially when Shen Shi inadvertently said some experiences of working in the shop to identify spiritual materials, which made Sun You's eyes shine even more , actually looked very interested.

As they talked, both of them felt that they were getting closer. Shen Shi traveled thousands of miles to Lingxiaozong alone. He was unfamiliar with the place and had no relatives. After a while, I also learned some trivial news from him inside and outside the Lingxiao Sect, mainly about the vassal families outside the sect, and my mood improved a lot, and I became happy unconsciously.

While talking, Sun You leaned closer to Shen Shi, and said with a low laugh: "According to what you said, you know almost all the ordinary spirit grass, spirit mine, pill, medicine and spirit materials?"

Shen Shi pondered for a while, shook his head, and said: "This is too full of words, I can't take it seriously. I used to work in that shop as a helper, so I know some common spiritual materials."

There was a trace of mystery on Sun You's face. Seeing that no one noticed here, he reached out and took out a small royal blue silk bag from his arms, handed it to Shen Shi, and said, "In that case, help me out." Show me this thing."

Shen Shi glanced at him, Sun You smiled, but with a bit of encouragement, said: "Look, look, help me find out what this thing is?"

Shen Shi unfastened the slipknot fastened to the buckle of the small bag, and shook the cloth bag, revealing a piece of yellow object inside, but after a closer look, he found that the object looked very ordinary, it was earthy yellow, and looked like a yellow object. The soil lumps, the only thing that is a little strange is that after taking out the cloth bag, it seems to emit a faint fragrance.

"Huh?" Shen Shi took a careful look at this, and when he turned his head to look at Sun You again, his eyes were different, and he said, "That's right, as expected, he's from a great family, and he's actually carrying this 'fire pendant incense' with him .”

Sun You laughed, and said, "Ah, you really have eyesight, and you can still recognize this thing... Uh," suddenly, his smile paused, and his brows were slightly frowned, but then he returned to normal. Glancing at the yellowish pimple in Shen Shi's hand, he said, "You just said that this is the incense?"

Shen Shi nodded, and said: "The incense of fire is the strange fragrance produced under the belly of the monster 'Lihuo Centipede', it is very rare, judging by the size and quality of this piece, it may only be produced by a monster of hundreds of years. This thing is most beneficial to monks in the Condensation Realm, and keeping a piece of it with you when you are cultivating to absorb spirit crystals can effectively relieve mental fatigue and increase the effect of cultivation by about [-]%, it is a rare spiritual material that can enhance cultivation."

As he said, he handed back the piece of incense stick in his hand to Sun You, with a bit of envy, and said: "It seems that your family values ​​you very much, but this incense stick is only effective in the Condensation Realm. , once cultivated to the state of God, it will almost lose its effect on monks, and if it is used from the refining state, the effect of the strange fragrance is too strong, it is easy to absorb too much spiritual power from the spirit crystal into the body, and it will be broken The foundation of Yu Mansion, if you want to break through in the future, there is no hope, not to mention, if it takes a long time, I am afraid that the body will be destroyed."

Sun You seemed to have become a lot more silent all of a sudden. He took the fire scorpion incense without saying a word, looked down for a long time, then gently retracted the small bag and put it away. When he looked up again, there was already a smile on his face , looking at Shen Shi's eyes, it seems to be a little different than before.

"Let's go." He patted Shen Shi's shoulder lightly, and said, "Although this stone step is difficult to walk, but the fairy fate is on it, I have to walk."

Shen Shi laughed, and said: "Exactly."

The two teenagers stood up at the same time, returned to the steep stone steps, and continued to climb upwards.

※※※

The two of them had already walked more than half of the stone steps, but they were delayed for a while because of this accident. Now that they walked forward again, they felt that walking on the stone steps seemed much easier than before.In this way, the two of them walked on the stone steps for another half an hour, and finally finished this difficult road of immortal fate and climbed to the top of Baixian Rock.

Different from the steep and steep stone steps, the top of the huge rock Baixianyan is flat, it looks like a flat ground was cut out by someone with a sword with a great supernatural power.At this time, before them, many people had already boarded here. Shen Shi looked around and saw a person dressed in the costume of a disciple of the Lingxiao Sect standing at intervals around the edge of Baixianyan, faintly surrounding him. It formed a circle, surrounding the teenagers who climbed the Baixian Rock.

And in the middle of the flat and spacious space at the top of the boulder, there are already many boys and girls standing at the moment. At a glance, there are probably more than two hundred people. It seems that there were already many people who walked before Shen Shi arrived at the bottom of Baixian Rock. People boarded here first.

After stepping on this flat and solid stone surface, Shen Shi finally heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and glanced at the stone steps that he had just climbed up, thinking of the scene of falling down not long ago, he was still a little bit afraid of heart palpitations.On the other hand, Sun You, who was standing beside him, looked around, especially when his eyes stayed on the indifferent Ling Xiaozong disciples for a moment, when he was pulling Shen Shi forward, he suddenly said softly: "I think if we really fell and didn't stabilize the fall just now, nothing might happen."

Shen Shi said "Huh?" and looked at Sun You with some doubts. Sun You pouted and motioned him to look at the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect who formed a circle around him, and said: "These people have high morals. It’s easy to say, wouldn’t it be a great bad luck if new disciples like us die today? So now that I think about it, even if something really happened just now, these brothers and sisters would come to hold us back .”

Shen Shi pondered for a moment, then nodded, feeling quite reasonable.

The top of the boulder is very spacious. Even though there are more than [-] teenagers standing in the middle, it seems that there is still a lot of room. , looked around casually, and saw that the Lingxiaozong disciples did not express anything, and there were still young people walking up the stone steps from time to time, it seemed that they still had to wait for a while.

It's just that he casually watched here for a while, and his eyes swept over those teenagers who came here before. After a long time, he gradually noticed something strange.

The crowd of more than two hundred people and young people who were constantly joining in from behind seemed to be standing in a disorganized manner, but in fact they were divided into several small circles. There were about 20 young people in the center. There are women, all dressed in bright clothes, and they are familiar with each other, and they are talking and laughing together as if there is no one else around.

And in the outer circle of these twenty or so people, there are about 50 or [-] people standing faintly. Although they are all about the same age, it seems that the youths on the periphery have a different attitude towards the youths in the center. A bit of admiration, and some of them were instructed by the teenagers in the center to run errands willingly, showing no dissatisfaction.

In addition, in a large circle on the outside, it is probably where Shen Shi is standing. The teenagers here seem to be very strange to each other, and they rarely talk to others. The teenagers seem to be cheerful, and there are not many people who are looking for someone to talk to.At the same time, in the outermost circle, people stood the most sparsely and disorderly, and it seemed that they did not form a circle at all.

While turning his eyes, Shen Shi actually saw the little fat man Hou Sheng who was full of hostility towards him. Seeing that he was standing in the second circle in the middle, his expression at this moment was completely different from when he was facing him before. Man, with a chubby face full of smiles, standing not far from another boy, looking at the brightly dressed boy from the corner of his eyes all the time, if that boy is The outstanding young man in the center of the crowd gave some orders or hints, and Hou Sheng would immediately come over to him, obeying the instructions or running errands, and seemed to be very respectful to this young man.

Shen Shi watched from a distance for a while, and suddenly heard a voice from beside him, but it was Sun You who came to his side and stood side by side with him. At this moment, he followed Shen Shi's gaze and looked forward, and said lightly: "Then His name is Hou Yuanliang, and he is an outstanding descendant of the direct branch of the Hou family."

Shen Shi turned his head and glanced at him, and said, "You know quite a few people."

Sun You shrugged and said: "No way, most of the vassal families under the Lingxiao Sect are within five hundred miles of Floating Cloud City, and the small families walk with each other. Many people have played together since childhood. of."

Shen Shi smiled, glanced at the center of the crowd again, pondered for a moment, and said: "So, those people standing in the middle..."

Sun Youjing said directly: "The more than 20 people in the middle are the direct descendants of some of the most powerful families today, and they are the most valued by the family on weekdays. Some of them have already registered in the Lingxiao Sect; The people next to them, some are descendants from aristocratic families who were selected because of their talents, and some were born to distant relatives who were related to these aristocratic families, anyway, they all depend on the faces of these direct descendants." Said He pointed at the place where he and Shen Shi were standing again, and said, "As for the circle outside where we are standing, I don't know any of them, they should all be commoner disciples that Ling Xiaozong accepted this time."

Shen Shi rolled his eyes, and then smiled again: "By the way, aren't you from the Sun family? Seeing that you know a lot of people, why don't you go and talk to them?"

Sun You sneered, as if he was about to say something, when suddenly, among the most central group of people, a young man dressed in white with a handsome face and a slender figure glanced at this place, just in time to see Sun You, and was startled for a moment , then smiled, waved his hands and shouted loudly:

"Second brother, when did you come up? Come here quickly."

The expression on Sun You's face changed instantly.
