Chapter Three Hundred and One: The Reckless Man Standing Under the Dangerous Wall
This Soul Searching Technique was copied by Ma Guang, and it didn’t contain much content. The Yousha Sect provided paper and pen when copying. If Zhou Tai wanted to copy this handwritten manuscript, he would have to find something to copy by himself. There is no storage space.
The contents inside cannot be exposed, the cave is not allowed to be destroyed, and carvings on the stone walls are not allowed. It will be a problem if the foundation building monks' spiritual consciousness finds out. Although some things can be done secretly, it is not good if it is too blatant.
In the end, Zhou Tai got two wooden boards to record.
Although I could memorize it, it was safer to copy it down. I checked it again to make sure there were no mistakes, and then Ma Guang left.
Although he had acquired the technique and could understand it clearly, Zhou Tai still had a cautious attitude towards the technique due to the increasingly serious suspicion he had cultivated in the world of immortal cultivation.
Although it is a bit unreasonable to teach the skills that reward the top ten people at will, Zhou Tai felt that it was because he was literate and could copy relatively quickly, as well as those who were illiterate and could not read.
The number of low-level monks who will eventually learn it will definitely not be small.
This sect is so weird, even mortals who can't read are accepted. Zhou Tai doesn't know whether the children who come to the sect are taught literacy, but it is certain that no one teaches these young people here.
It is difficult for mortals to survive. Even those who live in Shengxian City have better conditions, but there are still many who are illiterate. Some families have exhausted all their efforts to stay in Shengxian City.
When they first came to Shengxian Valley, the low-level disciples who were illiterate only learned about the content of the exercises from the low-level disciples who could read by using the resources distributed by their sects. Some started practicing without caring about anything else, and some followed up.
It took a lot of resources to learn how to read. Now that the ten-year period has passed, many people who are illiterate are starting to learn how to read.
Thinking that there might be some purely illiterate people who went to Shengxian City to test their qualifications and recruit disciples, Zhou Tai's opinion of the third-level Yousha Sect became worse and worse, and he confirmed that these low-level disciples were inferior to the handymen of Liuyun Sect.
of.
After Ma Guang left, the entire cave fell into silence again. Zhou Tai thought that he should leave?
You can use a soul measuring board to observe the surrounding situation. Zhou Tai has long discovered that during the Yin evil month every year, there will be a valley in the surrounding area where all the light spots representing the Qi training period disappear, and then several monks in the foundation building period appear.
After cleaning up the empty valley, two foundation builders were left waiting for the new disciples who were about to arrive.
There was usually nothing going on. It can be said that Zhou Tai spent most of his time observing the situation in the surrounding valleys. At first, there was no danger. Later, he felt that there should be no danger, so he began to often enter the Lingbao-level soul-finding board to practice.
In the light spots of the Qi period, I found that there are valleys similar to this one, and even the style of the caves is the same. These valleys are called Shengxian Valley.
Those Qi-training monks did not disappear all at once. They all disappeared by climbing mountains and flying boats. The area where they disappeared was suspected by Zhou Tai to be the sect of Yousha Sect, because the locations of these Shengxian Valleys are all around that area.
area.
Zhou Tai has never seen those Qi training monks who left. Maybe he was unfounded. Those people just went to practice in the sect. But one thing is that the Yousha Sect monks lied, saying that they had reached Qi training nine.
You are not allowed to leave the Immortal Ascension Valley before reaching the third level, but those monks who disappeared in the Qi training period have not reached the seventh level, not to mention the ninth level of Qi training.
It is very likely that these Qi training monks will never have the chance to advance to the ninth level of Qi training.
When he discovered this back then, Zhou Tai thought about leaving directly, but he was a little reluctant to leave, especially when he found out that the reward for the top ten was the Soul Searching Skill, and he didn't want to leave.
In fact, the Soul Searching Technique will be issued. Zhou Tai knew it before. After all, he was monitoring so many Qi-training monks, but he couldn't get it before. After entering the light spot, he only had a distant field of vision, and his spiritual consciousness could not be used.
, there is no way to observe the technique at all. If Ma Guang didn't take the initiative to send it, he would find a way to get it. Although there may be problems, the temptation for Zhou Tai to be able to search for souls is too great.
Summarizing the rules and investigating the monks in the Qi training period, they found that there are a total of twelve Shengxian Valleys, with a cycle of twelve years. Therefore, Zhou Tai and other low-level disciples will be transported to the sect by flying boat twelve years after entering the Shengxian Valley.
within the door.
Once you enter the Yousha Sect at that time, you will either encounter opportunity or great terror, and the probability of crisis is much greater. Now that you have the soul-searching method, you can say that your wish has been fulfilled.
After thinking about it all night, Zhou Tai saw Fei Youzhou coming to the valley he created the next day and picking up Ma Guang and other ten Qi-training monks. After all, Zhou Tai decided to wait and see. After all, there was still some time left before twelve years.
time.
Normally speaking, it is safest for a gentleman not to stand behind a dangerous wall and fly far away, but Zhou Tai feels that he is not a gentleman. He has spent most of the past ten years decorating and practicing. How can a gentleman pretend to be a gentleman for so long?
The habit becomes natural.
If you give yourself a position, then Zhou Tai will think that a reckless man is more suitable to describe himself. A reckless man who thinks a little too much will often weigh the pros and cons, but sometimes he will just ignore it, just like now when he knows that danger may be approaching.
But he still didn't want to leave.
First of all, he was curious, which made him reluctant to leave. What was the Yousha Sect doing? Is it really cultivating disciples? If not? What was it doing?
The second is the Soul Searching Technique that he just got. It is not complicated. Zhou Tai is confident that he will learn it soon, but it is not safe. Since there are many monks here who know it, Zhou Tai wants to see if there is anything wrong with it after someone uses it.
This can determine if there is any problem with this technique. He can't trust this kind of technique that is released at will.
In the end, this is only a third-class sect. If nothing else, the strongest monk in the sect is Yuanying. This is the biggest reason why Zhou Tai dares to stay. If it were a second-class sect, he would have learned it sooner.
How far did you run?
More than two months later, Feizhou once again stopped in the Immortal Valley and sent back Ma Guang and ten other Qi-training monks. Everything seemed to be normal, and Ma Guang came to Zhou Tai's house as expected.
In the cave.
"I can see my family during this trip!" Zhou Tai asked first.
"I see, everything is fine." Ma Guang, who had a normal expression on his face, became brighter when he heard about his family.
"There is one thing I have always been curious about. I wonder if I can get an answer from Brother Ma."
"But it doesn't matter."
"Brother Ma returned to Shengxian City to represent the sect to select disciples. I want to know how the selection was made and what the criteria were. I entered the sect in a daze and didn't know what my qualifications were!" While saying that,
Zhou Tai began to pay attention to the changes in the other person's expression.
Hearing this, Ma Guang's expression became a little strange, and then he began to speak slowly: "There is no qualification test, we just look at the power of qi and blood. As for how to look, just tell me that you are tall, fat, and strong.
"
Zhou Tai, who thought so, asked again: "Then why do you stretch your hands to your head?" Just looking at the appearance, there is no need to stretch out your hands.
Just as Ma Guang was about to answer, a burst of spiritual consciousness swept past him, easily destroying the spiritual consciousness of the two of them. It turned out that the foundation-building monks of Yousha Sect had begun patrolling again.
It wasn't until this spiritual consciousness disappeared and the two people who were quiet and still arranged their spiritual consciousness around their bodies that they resumed conversation again.
"Brother Zhou also looks at the Soul Searching Technique. In fact, it is just a state of running the Soul Searching Technique all the time. If you feel that there is spiritual consciousness in the person participating in the test, or when the soul searching hand is placed on the opponent's head,
, if you show a look of fear, you should use Soul Search without hesitation..."
Ma Guang's answer made Zhou Tai realize that the hand he once thought was harmless actually contained such danger.
"Isn't it dangerous to directly search for souls without controlling the opponent?" Zhou Tai wondered.
"The sect requested this, and we don't know why. If the other party resists, the soul search will not be completed. Maybe they just want some people to take the initiative to be exposed." Ma Guang expressed his guess.
"Is anyone being soul-searched this time?"
"No."
After the two chatted for a while, Zhou Tai found that something was wrong with the other party's state. In fact, he had noticed it from the beginning, but it seemed more obvious now.
"Brother Ma, you seem worried. Is there any trouble? If there is anything I can do to help, just tell me."
"No." Ma Guang denied Zhou Tai's guess, and then continued: "Now I have practiced Qi at the sixth level, and Brother Zhou, you have only practiced at the fourth level. From now on, I will give you all the Qi Gathering Pills, waiting for us
The cultivation level is the same."
Hearing that he had to give himself a Qi Gathering Pill again, Zhou Tai nodded even though he didn't use it. He will enter the Yousha Sect in two years. The result is unknown, and he might leave early. For Ma Guang, in Zhou
From Tai's point of view, it was easy to obtain the soul-searching technique from the opponent. If he defeated himself and thought of other methods, it would be worthy of his two random attempts.
The two chatted some more, and Ma Guang said goodbye and left, but a few days later, he came again.
"Brother Zhou has never been able to repay his kindness to me. It is only right to repay the Qi Gathering Pill. If there is anything else I can do, just ask!" The other party said in a serious tone.
Regarding this, Zhou Tai said that there was nothing wrong: "The road of cultivation is long, and there are many things that you don't have to rush for. And there is nothing I want to do at the moment."
In the end, Ma Guang still wanted Zhou Tai to say something he could do to help.
"What can you do with your cultivation now?" The other party was a little self-aware. Zhou Tai had to remind him that there were many things he wanted, but the other party simply couldn't do it. The only thing the other party could do was something Zhou Tai didn't want to do.
The other party does it.
Because Ma Guang can also use the Soul Searching Technique, if the other party can use it once, it would be best to let Zhou Tai see if anything bad happened. But now that Ma Guang is considered a friend, this is a bit deceptive.
Zhou Tai didn't want the other party to do it, not to mention that if he wanted to use it here, he would have to find a low-level disciple, and it was impossible for a monk whose soul had been searched to survive. Killing people here follows the rules of the Yousha Sect.
He was going to be executed. In a certain sense, it could be said that he was asking the other party to die, so how could he open his mouth?
Even so, if Zhou Tai chooses to leave early, he has no intention of taking the other party with him. The future is unknown. Maybe Yousha Sect is the opportunity for the other party. If he takes the other party away, he may hold grudges in the future.
Hearing Zhou Tai's words, Ma Guang's expression changed a little, and then he lowered his head and his tone became low: "I also know that I can't do anything now, but I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future."
"Why did you say that?" Hearing the other party's obviously wrong tone, Zhou Tai knew that the other party was hiding something, which was not unexpected. It would be strange that the other party would have no reservations about him.
After hesitating for a while, Ma Guang finally spoke in a low voice: "I don't know whether I should say something or not. After all, it's just my guess."
"Tell me about it and let me analyze it for you!" Zhou Tai estimated that the other party also felt that the Yousha Sect was a little suspicious of the purpose of these low-level disciples. He wanted to know if the other party knew something that he did not know.
Hearing this, Ma Guang's face showed confusion and fear, but he finally spoke.
"I have always felt very good about the sect, and have been practicing hard. I have never doubted anything. And when I returned to Shengxian City again, I also gave ten of us some extra money to share with our families. I have no doubts about this.
More grateful.”
"On the second floor of Feizhou, all ten of us Qi-training disciples have their own private room. If you want to answer questions for the new disciples, you can answer them. If you want to be quieter, you can go back and stay. There was nothing when you went there, but in
On the way back to the city this time, Feizhou experienced some vibrations for some unknown reason, and for some unknown reason, maybe there was a small problem with the formation, but I could vaguely hear the conversations of the monks on the third floor in my single room." He said here.
His face was a little pale, and he raised his head and looked around with a somewhat frightened look.
Seeing the other party like this made Zhou Tai anxious. Should he just say no after hearing something? He stopped talking. Is this to heighten the atmosphere? Although he thought so in his heart, he didn't say anything more. He knew what was going to happen next.
It will come out.
"There's nothing else, but I heard something that the entire Yousha Sect has less than a hundred foundation-building disciples!"
"That's it? What's the point!" Isn't it normal for a third-class sect to build less than a hundred foundations? Although I think there are so many low-level disciples every year, it doesn't mean anything. They are stuck in foundation building, right? After all, Ma
Even though he is a monk, he knows less about this than Zhou Tai, who used to work as a handyman.
"Is this really nothing?"
"It's really nothing!"
In the end, Ma Guang left in despair. From this moment on, Zhou Tai lost a lot of his good impression of Ma Guang. It was obvious that the other party must have heard a lot, but he did not tell him, otherwise it would not be like this.
At best, the other person may be afraid of putting more pressure on themselves. The situation is really bad, and speaking out will not help. But there are so many things in the world that are just in the name of being good for you.
