Killing God

It was a sunny day, the sky was high and the air was crisp, the sun was high in the sky, and its light was so bright that it illuminated Jinhong Mountain, a fairy mountain in the sea, like a dream, magnificent and majestic.

There are many temples in the middle of the mountain, which is where the daily activities of many Ling Xiaozong's direct disciples above the Ning Yuan Realm gather. The scale is huge and there are many pavilions. Many newcomers can't figure out the situation here, but with Sun You, all of this is naturally not a problem. When he was on Qingyu Island many years ago, Sun You had already shown a strong talent for listening to news.

"...Although there are many halls on this mountain, after staying for a long time, you will understand that the most central place is the sea viewing platform under our feet."

Listening to Sun You's words beside him, Shen Shi looked around, and saw that the two of them had just stepped over the stone steps and boarded a wide and flat square. The ground was paved with large sapphire bricks. The ten-acre land is surrounded by large and small palaces, and several passages lead from the gaps between the palaces and pavilions to farther up the mountain, connecting more palaces in the distance.

Including the Elixir Hall, which Shen Shi visited once yesterday, is also in a conspicuous position around the viewing platform, but no one explained it to him as carefully as Sun You did today.At this moment, there are people coming and going on the Guanhai Terrace, most of them are dressed in the costumes of Lingxiao Sect disciples, their popularity is not low but they don't appear to be very noisy.And behind the two, there are more than a dozen stone steps, large and small, connecting to this viewing platform from all directions.

Looking back, this sea viewing platform is in a place with a very wide view in the middle of Jinhong Mountain, without any occlusion, you can see the sea and sky at a glance, and the sea and sky are so vast, and the blue waves are as blue as a mirror, it is really heart-warming If you are proud, no matter how much depression you have, it will dissipate.

In addition, the most striking thing on the Guanhaitai Square is the seven large pillars standing in the middle of the square, which are more than [-] feet high and pure white. There are coiling dragons and phoenixes, lifelike, at a glance, it is like seven giants looking at the sea from the mountains, swallowing thousands of miles.

Seeing Shen Shi looking at the seven gorgeous jade pillars, Sun You said with a smile: "These seven jade pillars are called 'Hongjun Pillars'. According to legend, they are the patriarch Jing Cheng, who founded our Lingxiao Sect, after the war between monsters. The ones brought back from the Demon Emperor's Palace in Tianhong City have been erected here for ten thousand years."

Shen Shi looked at the tall and majestic seven huge jade pillars, nodded, and was full of admiration.

Sun You smiled and gave him a hand, and the two continued to walk forward. At the same time, Sun You turned to him and said, "I said Shitou, do you really not remember anything about the past few years?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Shen Shi's face, he laughed dryly, and said: "Yeah, anyway, after the accidental explosion of the magic circle three years ago, I was in a daze. Already in Guiyuan Realm."

Sun You clicked his tongue twice, looking very surprised, and Shen Shi also sighed in his heart. This reason was told to him by Du Tiejian, so that he would deal with it in this way whenever someone asked him in the future.At that time, Shen Shi also felt that it was a bit unreliable after hearing it, and he always felt that it was a bit too perfunctory, but Du Tiejian said carelessly: Anyway, it's not all lies, including the most important teleportation circle. The real person from Huaiyuan has recognized the door here, so who can care about anything?As for the tiny teleportation circle, it is an important discovery that is unheard of, but now that the magic circle has been destroyed, there is no proof of death.

In short, facing Sun You's question in the morning, Shen Shi could only bite the bullet and repeat the reason. It seemed that although Sun You was very surprised, he didn't have any more suspicions.I haven't seen each other for three years. Although the two are of different ages, Sun You's friendship with Shen Shi doesn't seem to have faded much. After the two met, they seemed to have returned to the days on Herring Island. They were very cordial for a while .

Sun You led Shen Shi all the way forward, his words seemed to be as much as before, he kept talking beside Shen Shi, and said with a smile: "At first, I was worried that you would be trapped in the Qi Refining Realm and have many troubles, but unexpectedly You bastard, you actually broke through the realm on the first night back to the mountain, you really never expected, haha."

Shen Shi smiled and said: "It's just luck, by the way, after I left, what happened to the people who broke the border on the island?"

Sun You shrugged his shoulders and said, "Among our group of disciples back then, it seemed that we were really a group of elites. The first one to break through to the Condensed Yuan Realm was of course that monster Gan Ze, who is also in our group now. The only genius among the people who broke through to the middle level of the Condensed Origin Realm in just three years. In addition, in the next six months after him, 19 people successively cultivated to the Condensed Yuan Realm, including Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu. , this young master is undoubtedly a genius."

Shen Shi laughed, patted him on the shoulder hard, and said with a smile: "I can't tell, it's amazing."

"Hey." Sun You laughed, and then he pointed his fingers and said casually: "These 20 people were the first to reach the Yuan Condensation Realm, and then in the next three years, four or fifty people broke through the realm, um... you The He Xiaomei I knew before went up the mountain in the second year, and that Jiang Hongguang was a year later. In short, there are quite a few of those new disciples who have made great achievements. After I went up the mountain, I heard from the seniors of the sect It is said that such a high number of talented people is extremely rare, and it may take three to four hundred years to see it once."

Shen Shi nodded with a smile, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. In the last year on Qingyu Island, his progress in Taoism was actually not bad, and it might not be impossible to squeeze into the first batch of disciples who broke through the realm, but ... Well, anyway, it's useless to think about it now.

He shook his head slightly, put this useless thought behind him, and said to Sun You: "Where are you taking me now?"

Sun You chuckled and said, "I'll take you to get the money."

Shen Shi was stunned, Sun You smiled and pulled him forward, and at the same time began to explain to him in detail, and told him some rules on Jinhong Mountain in Lingxiaozong.

Once the outer sect disciples on Herring Island successfully cultivated to the Yuan Condensation Realm, they would be eligible to climb Jinhong Mountain and become personal disciples.After becoming a direct disciple, there are no longer so many restrictions and rules on Herring Island. In contrast, the school rules for these Yuan Condensed Realm disciples Ling Xiaozong are much looser, and there are also many corresponding benefits.

One of these is that each person can receive fifteen spirit crystals from the sect every month.

Shen Shi was very thoughtful, and after hearing this, he pondered for a moment, and then realized that the number of these fifteen spirit crystals should be just enough for the minimum guarantee for the disciples in the Condensation Realm to practice every month.Ling Xiaozong is indeed a famous sect in the world. This handwriting may seem inconspicuous, but considering that there are thousands of disciples on the mountain, the amount of spiritual crystals spent every month is definitely not cheap, not to mention what Sun You said. The treatment of the disciples of the Yuan Realm, the brothers of the Shenyi Realm with a higher level of Taoism in the sect, and even the Dazhengs of the Yuan Dan Realm, the number of spirit crystals they get every month is several times or even dozens of times higher than this.

Such a huge expenditure of spiritual crystals must be based on the huge spiritual vein deep in the Jinhong Mountains. Sure enough, the spiritual vein is the foundation to support a cultivation school.

However, it is absolutely impossible for a monk to cultivate by relying solely on this little spirit crystal. Do you want to eat the spirit pill?Do you want to use the spirit weapon?Do you want to learn miraculous skills?There are many natural resources and treasures in front of your eyes, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort. Are you greedy?

Therefore, even the direct disciples of the Lingxiao Sect still have to work hard for the Lingjing and many spiritual resources for cultivation.

Unlike being imprisoned on Herring Island and not being able to go out, once they reach the Yuan Condensation Realm, Ling Xiaozong does not forbid their disciples to go out for a walk in the clouds. In fact, Ling Xiaozong encourages this. Every day, there is a sea-crossing fairy boat under Jinhong Mountain. Those disciples who can't fly across the sea can be sent to Haizhou. Of course, every time they take a boat, the cost is indispensable, a spirit crystal.

When he heard this, Shen Shi suddenly recalled some memories on Herring Island back then, and a bad premonition flashed in his heart, and he quickly asked Sun You, and sure enough, he heard Sun You continue to say that this Lingxiao sect needs some help. There are places to spend psionic crystals almost everywhere.

Most of the elixir and miraculous medicines in the Hall of Elixirs that can play various auxiliary functions in improving Taoism practice need to be purchased with spirit crystals, and they are expensive; of course, there are some panacea that are not purchased with spirit crystals, but that is Because these spirit pills are of a higher grade, Ling Xiaozong did not sell them directly, but raised the threshold. If the disciples want these powerful spirit pills, they must use another special school "mysterious talisman".

"Mysterious talisman?" Shen Shi was startled for a moment, took out the cloud talisman from the wishful bag, and said, "Is it related to this?"

Sun You glanced at the wishful bag hanging on his waist, then shook his head and said, "It's not the same as the cloud talisman, it's like this." He also reached out his hand to touch his waist, and it was also hung there. He was holding a wish bag, but it was yellow, and after a while, a black jade ring with a black color but shimmering faintly appeared in his hand, which seemed to be about the size of a cloud talisman.

Afterwards, through Sun You's explanation, Shen Shi roughly understood the purpose of this mysterious talisman. In fact, among the direct disciples, just like Herring Island back then, there will still be many tasks assigned in the Lingxiao Sect, some of which are easy and easy. Some spirit crystal rewards will be given, and some important and difficult tasks will reward a special kind of mysterious talisman count, which is specially accumulated on the unique talisman of each person.And if this kind of mysterious talisman has accumulated to a certain number, it can be exchanged for some excellent things in Lingxiaozong, such as pills, spiritual weapons, magic weapons, and even powerful Taoism and supernatural powers.

At first glance, it seems to be a bit troublesome and cumbersome, but after Shen Shi thinks about it carefully, he faintly feels that this sect rule seems to be aimed at those aristocratic families who are invincibly rich. Those descendants of aristocratic families?With this mysterious talisman, at least in the distribution of the higher level and the most important spiritual material resources, it will be relatively fair.

But if so, presumably once the rules on Herring Island are completely relaxed, and the children of the aristocratic family can immediately get the complete support of the family after reaching the Yuan Condensation Realm, they will immediately distance themselves from ordinary disciples in terms of cultivation. ?

In this world, where is the real fairness?

Shen Shi shook his head and didn't think about it anymore. Anyway, it's useless to think about this kind of thing. After carefully recalling Sun You's words just now, he said cautiously, "According to what you said, we Once you go to Jinhong Mountain, you will have to rely on yourself to earn Taoism and supernatural powers?"

Sun Youdao: "Not necessarily, one is that the disciples who have just entered the Yuan Condensation Realm can go to the school to choose a Taoist magical power for free. Of course, there is only one chance, and it will not be that kind of peerless fairy method, but it should be enough for self-defense. Second, it depends on your chance. If you are lucky enough to be picked up by those great elders in Yuandan Realm and accepted as their disciples, then the Taoism and supernatural powers they teach will naturally depend on the relationship between master and apprentice, and will not care about spirit crystals. In addition Otherwise, probably we can only rely on our own efforts.”

Shen Shi nodded, then said with a smile: "In this way, it seems that most people are fair. By the way, those Yuandan elders have many disciples. Have you been looked at by others?"

Sun You sneered, and said angrily: "Don't mention it, those elders in Yuandan Realm are all high and high. They either travel around the world or practice in seclusion all day long, and they have been in seclusion for more than ten or twenty years. You don't see a single person in a hurry. Not to mention the painstaking work of recruiting disciples. More than 20% of the thousands of direct disciples on this mountain have to cultivate by themselves, and I am no exception."

Shen Shi laughed, and said: "Then among our group of disciples, are there any lucky ones?"

Sun You said: "Yes."

Shen Shi let out a "huh" and said, "Who is it?"

Sun Youdao: "There are two people who have been formally recruited by the elders, one is Gan Ze, and the other is Zhong Qingzhu." He paused for a while, and suddenly added, saying, "But I heard that the presider of the alchemy hall Elder Yun Ni loves Zhong Qinglu very much, maybe she will be the third."

Shen Shi nodded, but his mind was reminded by the other fame that Sun You said just now, and said: "By the way, I forgot if you didn't tell me, Zhong Qingzhu had a good relationship with us back then, and now she... …how was it?"

Sun You suddenly frowned for no reason, saw a trace of unhappy expression flashing across his face, snorted, waved his hands, and said:

"Forget about her!"
