To the north of Qianqiu City, under the boundless clear sky, there is a line of green smoke as thin as a gossamer, crossing like a thread.
Wei Zhong hid in the escaping light, watched for a while, walked slowly towards a green mountain due north, and then pressed down the clouds.
This mountain is called Maoming Mountain.
Qianqiu City is also a place where immortals and mortals live together, and there are really not a few hidden cultivators among them. Thousands of years ago, this place may not have been well-known, but as the cultivation of the Zhu Fang Kingdom royal family gradually deepened, their reputation became more and more important, and so did the casual cultivators who gathered around them.
Gradually it increased.
The place where they live is roughly bounded by north and south. Most ordinary people live in the square in the south of the city, and the mountains in the north of the city and the Zhufang royal family are where monks gather.
Among the mountains in the north of the city, the Maoming Mountain in front of us is the most famous.
Because there are twenty-four "ice lakes" dotted in the mountain, the cold air floats and flows around, which is perfect for monks to move around the sky and exercise Qi.
Benefit the most from it.
This place originally had no fixed owner and was shared by scattered cultivators near and far. It was taken over by the Zhu Fang royal family more than a thousand years ago. However, Qi Liang, the leader of the Zhu Fang Kingdom of this generation, was a man of great courage and reopened the place more than 200 years ago.
, thus becoming a place of interest.
Qi Liang's move seemed generous, but in fact it was completely in line with the interests of the Zhu Fang royal family.
Because cultivating on that "ice lake" has many benefits, but it also has extremely high requirements for the practitioner's own qualifications and endurance. People who are not highly qualified and have great perseverance cannot try it. Even if the royal family occupies this place, it is actually very difficult.
Eighty-nine of them are also vacant.
It would be better to let them go. Instead, many outstandingly qualified casual cultivators came into the royal family's sight, virtually becoming a channel for testing and recruiting talents.
When Wei Zhong looked down at the twenty-four ice lakes that had been replaced by two circles, he couldn't help but wonder secretly.
After discovering that he had the unique ability of "changing the mind", Wei Zhong immediately wanted to test the method among fellow cultivators.
Maoming Mountain is the first choice.
However, in the memory of Maoming Mountain that was inexplicably implanted in Wei Zhong's mind, the Taoist cultivators here must be very prosperous.
Although the number of elite monks who are qualified to directly use the "Ice Lake" to practice is limited, and more than half of the twenty-four positions are used, leaving a small half vacant, it is normal; but those who come to cling to the fate, those who watch the excitement, and even
There are quite a lot of relatives, friends and retinues of elite monks.
The scene in front of me was far beyond my expectation.
There are only four small lakes where monks can be seen practicing attentively, and these four people are all alone, not a group of people.
What's even more amazing is that there is no difference in the cultivation level of these four people, they are all in the golden elixir realm.
This is not quite in line with Wei Zhong's intention.
What Unzhong expected was to find suitable candidates, simulate monks practicing Qi to different realms such as the Nascent Soul Realm, and observe the reactions of others.
While his thoughts were wandering, on the four small lakes, a person suddenly raised his head, looked towards the unintentional direction in the sky, and shouted: "Fellow Taoist, why do you need to hide your head and show your tail?"
Wei Zhong was slightly startled. He didn't expect that a mere golden elixir monk could have such a keen sense. He was not aware of it and was actually caught by this person.
Thoughts are spinning like lightning, and you can make a quick decision when you don't want to.
The true cultivation level she showed in this secret realm was that of the early stage of Nascent Soul. It would be better to try to show off her skills and directly imitate the popularity machine to see what kind of image "she" is in his eyes.
But just when he was about to practice the method, Wei Zhong had a strange intuition inexplicably - it seemed that imitating the image of a monk was easier than imitating a mortal. There was no need to find a real "template", he could copy it perfectly just by evolving his thoughts.
come out.
Wei Zhong was very thoughtful and immediately had an idea.
With a sudden thought, imagine that you are a powerful expert and see what happens.
However, she had never seen a single powerful person in the Mysterious Realm of the Yuan Dynasty with her own eyes. Even if she wanted to visualize it, she could not talk about it. So she simply changed her mind and borrowed the words from the world of Ziwei that she had seen during the Observation of Sama Yuan Dynasty.
Character image.
As soon as the light was turned on, it fell down unexpectedly.
At the same time, I thought silently in my heart, not hiding my body's energy.
This is not the Qi of "Weizhong" himself; it is the Qi of the character that appears outside and is simulated.
The person who just shouted was sitting cross-legged at a height of more than three feet above the lake. When he saw Wei Zhong approaching, there was an unbelievable look in his eyes, and his body suddenly straightened up.
Uncertainly take a closer look.
This person has slender eyebrows and bright eyes. He wears a small jade crown on his head, which is very inconspicuous. There is a black veil on his face, covering his face. But it is obvious that this person is very young both in appearance and real age.
He is young and among the people in the same realm, he is one of those who advance very quickly.
Guju
Wei Zhong stood up and said in an unusually mature tone: "Wu, this young man, can you tell me your name so that you can see your true face?"
The man hesitated for a moment, then finally took off the black scarf and said, "Loose cultivator in the Northern Territory, Chu Xiushi."
Only then did Wei Zhong realize that this person's forehead was faintly red, but his cheeks were faintly blue, and his face was divided into two colors. Although it didn't look ugly, there was an inexplicable dissonance. Maybe this was
The reason why he is wearing a hijab.
If you ignore this point, the person in front of you is actually an extremely handsome young man.
Before Wei Zhong could think of how to speak, the man in front of him suddenly bowed and said, "Does this senior want to recruit a disciple? If the Taoism is passed down from generation to generation, master and disciple, Chu can consider it; but if it is the secret method of heart seal,
I include the closed disciples who explored and asked about the Three Mysteries, please forgive Mr. Chu for being insensitive."
Hearing this, Wu Zhong was both surprised and amused.
Such pretentious people are very rare in heaven and earth.
Wei Zhong deliberately made a serious face and said calmly: "Asking at the mysterious entrance and receiving the fate is a great fate method that all the Taoists in the world dream of. What ability do you have to dare to make such arrogant remarks? Or are you making such arrogant words on purpose?
To dazzle the ears and eyes and play the hard-to-get trick?"
When he said the last sentence, his tone was very harsh.
Chu Xiushi seemed to be frightened by Wu Zhong's aura, and her body leaned back slightly. But her face remained calm, and she said slowly: "Senior, I know it clearly. Senior, do you know why there are so few people in Maoming Mountain in Qianqiu City at this time? Since Chu
If you stay here, your ambition will be self-evident."
"Otherwise, I should have followed the popular trend and rushed to Baiye City after hearing the news."
Wei Zhong originally didn't understand what Chu Xiushi was talking about, but after hearing the words "Baiye City", many thoughts in his mind suddenly became clear. The customs, history and events in Baiye City in the past hundred years flowed through his mind like a trickle.
, the same as when I saw the three-character plaque of "Qianqiu City" not long ago.
He immediately nodded and said, "That's right. Half a month ago, Shengze Tower in Baiye City established the thirty-third picture. It is rumored that Taoist fellows of Luzhuang on Nanxuan Immortal Island have recruited the closed disciples."
Chu Xiushi said: "That's right. We usually borrow the golden elixir cultivated from Maoming Mountain Ice Lake. There are usually between twelve to seventeen or eighteen disciples in the Nascent Soul Realm. Now there are only four people left, so naturally they are all here.
Baiye City went to join in the fun."
Wei Zhong was unmoved and said calmly: "What's the use of going to the late market at this time? Baiye City has encountered immortals for thirty-three times, and I haven't heard that two of them happened at the same time. You didn't follow the trend before
If you go, it only shows that you have good concentration, or that your judgment of the situation is very different from ordinary people. This shows your intentions, but it seems that your persuasiveness is not enough."
Chu Xiushi took a deep breath and said calmly: "Senior's words make sense."
"It's just that the last time I met the Immortal Picture was very different from the past. First, Shi Shangzhen, who was born in Dongxuan Immortal Island and was one of the Three Supreme Beings of Taihua, fought with the truth on the land, and then there was a mysterious Shangzhen hiding among the people in Shengze Tower.
There are subtleties in it, perhaps very different from the past. There are even rumors that the mysterious master has quietly returned to the attic. How can anyone who is really interested remain indifferent?"
Wei Zhong muttered: "What you said seems to make some sense."
While he was thinking about it, a bright light suddenly appeared in the sky, which was extremely eye-catching.
Like a flash of lightning, an extra person appeared on the lake here, forming a tripod between Wei Zhong and Chu Xiushi.
Wei Zhong was shocked. With such momentum, it was clear that the real shortcut master had arrived.
Taking a closer look, he saw that the person who came was extremely young. His eyebrows were as sharp as two swords, and his eyes were unfathomable. Their brilliance flowed, changing repeatedly between sharp and soft.
Wei Zhong didn't know whether his "mind-changing technique" would be effective against the short-term power. He was a little worried at first, but his face remained calm. But after the visitor looked at Wei Zhong for a while, he took a step back slightly.
His attitude is extremely prudent, and it is both inexplicable and surprising, and also has an indescribable flavor.
This person said: "Fellow Taoist, you are polite. I am a casual cultivator from Dongxuan Immortal Island. I dare to ask for your name."
Wei Zhong secretly concentrated on his thoughts, and as soon as he thought about it, he simply responded by his real name: "I am Wei Zhong."
Fucang nodded slowly and said: "As a wise Taoist friend, I have only seen one person in my life. The feeling you gave me is very similar to that person."
Immediately he frowned and remained silent.
Although Wei Zhong was surprised to see the visitor, he was still neither humble nor arrogant, and he couldn't help but secretly call him lucky.
It was both a fluke that my "mind-changing technique" was still effective against such a brilliant person, and also a fluke that I had chosen the right person.
The moment he saw Chu Xiushi, Wei Zhong chose to imitate the powerful master of the shortcut. His original intention was to randomly choose one of the nine powerful masters reflected in the Liuli Tianzhui; but when the matter came to pass, perhaps it was the desire for perfection that caused trouble.
, Wei Zhong still chose the strongest image of the shortcut she had ever seen - the image of the shortcut Gui Gui blameless in the "Five Realms of Identity" battle between Gui and Xuan.
If the simulation of qi is accurate, even though this person is not as good as "himself", he has not lost his qi.
This person is obviously not a good person. If he evolves the nine shortcuts, he will definitely not be able to suppress this person, and he may not have such a good tone to talk to him.
Fucang lowered his head and thought for a long time, then pointed at Chu Xiushi and said, "Is it possible that Taoist friend Wei Zhong has fallen in love with this boy and wants to be your Taoist priest? If so, it will be a bit difficult to handle."
