Chapter Twelve The Mirror of the Corpse

Zhu Jiu was not surprised by the result of this battle, and did not have blind faith in Sunset.

Rather, it comes from the fact that Sunset has hunted high-level zombies three times in the past two days, and it is also the reason why the battle ended with one blow like this.

Sunset's monster green skeleton has unimaginable tenacity and seems to be indestructible. So far, only when Zhu Jiu saw Sunset for the first time, it was damaged by magic flames when it was one level lower, but it was still glorious.

It circulates and quickly returns to its original state.

Zhu Jiu is not sure whether such strong bones are due to absorbing the residual essence of the four ferocious beasts of heaven and earth, or because Sunset itself is unusual, or because of a combination of the two, and it will take a long time to verify.

The two claws of the setting sun brought together two high-level corpses, lowered their heads, and absorbed the soul fire of the two corpses to reserve energy for their next evolution.

The two teenagers standing aside screamed and fell because the soul fire of their respective demon corpses was extinguished. The Sea of ​​Consciousness Talisman was broken, and their souls were seriously damaged.

Zhu Jiu turned his head and looked at the old monster in the center of the hall. The old guy nodded slightly. Zhu Jiu had a sinister thought in his heart and gave Sunset a killing order in his mind.

The setting sun immediately jumped out, killing the two teenagers with its two claws.

Seeing the Sunset Soul Fire spreading out and starting to refine the bodies of the two young men, Zhu Jiu looked gloomy, and a trace of ferocity suddenly appeared on the young man's face. He glanced at the many young men in the hall and found that no one dared to look at him this time.

.

Zhu Jiu felt no complacency in his heart. These people did not dare to look at him, just because they were afraid of the power of the sunset. Once their power exceeded the sunset, they would immediately have a different look on their face, and a sneer flashed through his heart.

The old monster's sinister laughter sounded again in the hall. The old guy laughed for a long time before saying with joy:

"It seems that I am very lucky. Both groups of supervisors have good materials for practicing law. In the next hundred years, I can no longer supervise this nonsense of recruiting new people. Hey! Someone, send Zhu Jiu to rest, and we will evaluate him in the fourth round.

There is no need to participate, just study directly at the Dharma Cultivation Hall tomorrow."

After the old monster finished speaking, the old servant behind him walked out slowly. Zhu Jiu nodded and greeted the many examiners in the hall, and quickly left behind the old servant. Sunset also followed Zhu Jiu and left the hall together.

Zhu Jiu followed the somewhat stooped old servant through several majestic and wide hall courtyards. He found that the buildings here were mostly dark colors, eerie and silent, and there was an inexplicable feeling of depression while walking.

There are very few people in the courtyard, and the occasional pedestrians are servants passing by in a hurry. No one is ever seen talking to each other, which further highlights the strange solemnity here.

The old servant and Zhu Jiu kept silent and walked straight for about half an hour before they came to a palace building that was extremely wide and covered an area of ​​several miles.

The whole building is dark blue, with faint lights flashing from time to time on the surface, just like the stars in the sky suddenly falling into the earth. It is full of oppression. The architectural style is square and round, and it is more than hundreds of meters high. Standing in front of the temple, it is difficult to see it at a glance.

Its top is majestic and majestic.

The main door of the main hall was open. There was a huge ink-colored plaque on the door, which read the three golden characters of "Xiu Dharma Hall". It looked majestic and noble. I don't know if it was due to an illusion. Zhu Jiu vaguely heard the words in the plaque when he followed the old servant and passed under the plaque.

There was a sound of wailing...

After entering the main hall, Zhu Jiu followed the old servant and the two staff in the main hall as they walked around the first floor of the main hall. They received disciples' sundries such as clothes and identity tokens, and were assigned to an independent room on the fifth floor.

It is about more than 200 square meters in size. The decoration inside the house is elegant and comfortable. The tables, chairs and other utensils used are all precious objects. They are in classical style and are used for daily living.

After everything settled down, the old servant who rarely spoke finally turned around and said to Zhu Jiu:

"You will have six years of study time in this cultivation hall. When you are sixteen, there will be an assessment. What will be checked is your cultivation progress here. If you can satisfy people, you will become one of the seventeen elders in the sect.

A direct disciple of a certain ancestor will be assigned to each of the outer halls and become a member of their command. Can you possibly understand the difference?"

Zhu Jiu thought for a moment, nodded and answered quickly:

"Disciple understands that if you perform well here, you will belong to the direct strength of the sect, and the resources and opportunities are different from others. Otherwise, you will be picked up by the major outer halls like those young people who are still taking the assessment.

But now it’s definitely worse than that.”

The old servant seemed a little surprised. He looked at Zhu Jiu carefully with his cloudy old eyes, and said in a still hoarse and low voice:

"Although your physical fitness is a little poor, your mind is extraordinary, and your understanding and soul power are also extraordinary. However, smart people often lack perseverance and determination to move forward. They always want to take advantage of situations, and cultivation requires the most important thing is to never regret it.

I hope you can learn from my determination."

Zhu Jiu was awestruck and watched respectfully as the old servant's rickety figure slowly walked out of the main entrance of the Dharma Cultivation Hall. He said hello to the two staff who were following him, and returned to the room assigned to him on the fifth floor.

Standing in front of the door of the room made of thousand-year-old ancient wood were three extremely respectful servants, two men and one woman, who were assigned as servants to Zhu Jiu as an entry-level disciple.

The two men were both in their twenties and relatively strong. It was said that these two men knew the rules and places of the Corpse Shinto very well, and they were assigned to Zhu Jiu to run errands and do miscellaneous tasks.

The remaining girl was just fourteen years old, with a fair complexion, some baby fat on her face, and a fairly delicate appearance. She was responsible for taking care of Zhu Jiu's daily life and other chores.

The three of them were all dressed in white and looked extremely neat and tidy. The sect's meticulous arrangements allowed all disciples to save all their time and concentrate on practicing the Dharma without having to worry about trivial matters.

Zhu Jiu briefly communicated with these three people and knew that they had to go to collect the practice method tomorrow at the earliest. The meals were delivered, and the three of them were driven out by Zhu Jiu with a wave of his hand.

After the three people left, leaving only the sunset standing quietly in the room, Zhu Jiu finally had the first time to be alone in peace and quiet after being reincarnated and woke up. He couldn't wait to take off a bronze piece tied by a metal chain from his neck.

The copper piece looks like it is made of brass. It has an ancient style and is simple and unpretentious. It is round and slightly larger than a coin. There are mottled traces of time and years on both sides of the front and back. It looks extremely ancient and looks a bit like hanging around the neck.

Items such as longevity locks used by wealthy families.

This copper plate traveled through time with Zhu Jiu, and his grandfather had kept it on his neck since he was born in his last life. It is said to be called a corpse mirror, and it is a kind of ward off evil spirits used by corpse hunters in western Hunan.

When Zhu Jiu looked at the corpse mirror again at this moment, he felt a blood-connected kindness welling up from the bottom of his heart.

Staring at the bronze mirror, Zhu Jiu murmured to himself:

"Are you the one who protected my reincarnation? You miss your hometown as much as I do, huh! In fact, it's not bad here. At least you can practice, which has opened a gap in the door to immortality that countless people have pursued throughout the ages. Now that we are here, we

I must live well in this world and try my best to go to the farthest end to see it. If you have a spirit, you must help me."

The bronze mirror that was holding the body tightly in his hand suddenly emitted a ray of heat, which made Zhu Jiuxian unable to hold it. The increasingly hot bronze mirror made him feel like he was holding a burning flame in his hand!
