Catalog of Destruction

"That's not necessarily the case. Cold-faced Lei Jun is just presiding over the Dharma assembly. The inner disciples below are responsible for all the tests and tests. Even if those big families can't blatantly cheat, those inner disciples will definitely be responsible for minor issues. Turn a blind eye." Zhang Haiping interrupted Xie Gang's delusion.

"Aren't you afraid that we monks will bring the matter to the cold-faced Lord Lei?" The shy Zhou Dielan seemed to be used to the presence of several monks, and she dared to express her own opinions.

Zhang Haiping shook his head and said: "Dielan, you are too naive. If you do this, even if you join the Penglai sect in the future, it will be difficult. You may not be able to stand the trouble and quit the sect one day."

Xie Gang was very unconvinced: "When you enter the sect, you have your own rules and regulations. Why are you afraid of what those big families will do?"

Zhang Haiping looked at Xie Gang with a look of hatred: "Don't think about it, even if you don't violate the rules and regulations of the sect, those big families have many ways to deal with you, such as assigning you a time-consuming task every month, you still Are you not practicing anymore? Brother Shi Xian, are you right in your judgment?”

Now that Zhang Haiping was asking questions about him, Shi Xuan had to say a few words: "Sit upright if you are good. Those ghostly tricks that cannot be put on the table cannot affect me. Soldiers will block it, and water will cover it." Without a specific situation, it is naturally impossible to analyze it in detail. If it is a small trick within the general rules, then you can only tolerate it temporarily. If it exceeds the rules, Zhang Lutang and Cold-faced Lei Jun are not dead. If it is dangerous to your own life, then I can't blame myself for attacking first.

Seeing that Shi Xuan also supported Xie Gang and Zhou Dielan's ideas, Zhang Haiping was quite depressed. Just as the food was served, he vented his emotions on eating.

Zhou Dielan, who had always been shy, suddenly stood up and waved to the door: "Sister Yu, come over here!" After shouting, she found that the monks in the entire hall were looking at her. She was immediately ashamed, her face was red, and she wanted to put her face to death. Bury it in your job bowl.

Entering the door was a female monk in a crimson dress. She was also about twenty years old. She had a beautiful face, bright eyes and white teeth. Her snow-white skin was even more pink and tender against the bright red clothes. Her whole body was as delicate and beautiful as a burning fire. , but his expression was quite cold and arrogant, which was exactly the opposite of his dress.

"Haha, Die Lan, why don't you introduce this girl?" Zhang Haiping saw the female monk coming and stood up to greet her enthusiastically.

"This is Sister Yu Ruoshui, the one Die Lan mentioned just now." Zhou Die Lan, who could speak fluently in front of Shi Xuan and others, also stood up and introduced to the three of them.

Yu Ruoshui looked indifferent, and after returning everyone's greetings, he said to Zhou Dielan, "Why are you running around alone, and you are not afraid of meeting bad people."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Haiping and Xie Gang were embarrassed. Shi Xuan also felt that although Yu Ruoshui's name contained the word "water", he might not have a good temper.

Zhou Dielan waved her hands hurriedly: "Brother Zhang, Brother Shi, and Brother Xie are all good people." Then she repeated Zhang Haiping's words.

After listening to what Zhou Dielan said, Yu Ruoshui's expression softened. Perhaps he knew that his tone was too harsh, so he hurriedly said to the three of them: "My sister Dielan is shy and simple by nature. I'm worried that he will be deceived by bad people. Her tone was a bit urgent just now. "Although it was an apology, the choice of words showed that this girl rarely apologized.

As a man, Zhang Haiping couldn't dwell on this, so he changed the topic: "I heard that Miss Yu came with your family, why didn't you come with us?"

Yu Ruoshui's expression worsened again, and she blurted out: "Those guys know how to attract bees and butterflies. If you can't join the Penglai sect this time, go back and see if grandpa doesn't break their legs."

No one dared to answer the question, and Yu Ruoshui also knew that he had spilled the beans, so he had to sit aside with a straight face and said nothing. It was Zhou Dielan who asked the maid to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

"I wonder what level of cultivation you are now, Miss Yu? Let me tell you, Brother Zhang broke through to the out-of-body stage when he was twenty-five years old. It is really amazing." Xie Gang seized every opportunity to take a picture of Zhang Haiping Come on.

After Zhang Haiping heard this, he straightened his back slightly and puffed out his chest.

Yu Ruoshui's face showed a half-smile expression, and he opened his mouth, but there was no answer. Zhou Dielan, who was next to her, said softly: "Sister Yu broke through to the out-of-body stage last year. She was just twenty-two years old at that time."

The smile on Zhang Haiping's face suddenly froze, and Xie Gang's smile was also extremely embarrassing, but he changed his mind and immediately said loudly: "Miss Yu, you are a descendant of the family, and you were able to break through to the out-of-body state at the age of twenty-two. It's normal. Brother Zhang is a casual cultivator. To reach this point, he must be called a genius!"

Seeing that Yu Ruoshui just smiled and said nothing, Zhang Haiping's expression softened a little, but it was still ugly. Xie Gang saw Shi Xuan anxiously and asked Shi Xuan as if he was grasping a life-saving straw: "Brother Shi, you are also a casual cultivator, right?"

Shi Xuan nodded: "Exactly."

Xie Gang then asked: "It's much more difficult for casual cultivators to practice than for family members. That's true, right?" He looked at the others while asking.

Somewhat understanding what Xie Gang wanted to ask, Shi Xuan was secretly amused, wondering if this was shooting himself in the foot, and replied with a serious face: "Indeed."

Zhou Dielan, who didn't understand the situation, also echoed: "Indeed, my father and I also practice very hard."

Seeing that both of them agreed with his words, Xie Gang's smile became natural again: "In that case, isn't it amazing that Brother Zhang can break through to the out-of-body stage at the age of twenty-five? Brother Shi, I don't know when you broke through. What about those who are in the out-of-body stage? They must have suffered enough as a casual cultivator."

Shi Xuan didn't intend to make others look good, because at the recruitment ceremony, his cultivation level would be known to others. Lying at this time would make others think that Shi Xuan was deeply scheming, so Shi Xuan was very straightforward. He replied: "I broke through before I was twenty-one."

Xie Gang's smile immediately froze on his face.

Zhang Haiping wanted to smile, but no matter how hard he squeezed, he couldn't squeeze out a smile.

Only Zhou Dielan sincerely exclaimed: "Brother Shi, you have reached the out-of-body stage at such an age. You are really amazing. I think the Penglai Sect will definitely accept you as a disciple."

Yu Ruoshui, who had been silent all this time, was also a little surprised. It was rare for a casual cultivator to achieve a breakthrough at this age.

After that, Xie Gang and Zhang Haiping just immersed themselves in eating and rarely spoke. Shi Xuan, Yu Ruoshui and Zhou Dielan occasionally chatted a few words, and gradually became familiar with each other.

In the next two days, Zhang Haiping and Xie Gang met many monks and made friends on the boat, feeling very relaxed.

Zhang Haiping still greeted Shi Xuan politely and occasionally chatted with him, but he was not as enthusiastic as before. When Xie Gang saw Shi Xuan, he was extremely embarrassed and basically lowered his head and passed by.

Because Zhou Dielan lived nearby, and Yu Ruoshui often came down to see her, Shi Xuan and them met several times by chance, and they were considered ordinary friends.

That evening, a lush island appeared in front of the ship. There was a jade tower on the island, which was a hundred feet high and penetrated into the clouds.

The monks cheered because this island was the destination of this trip, Penglai Island's Yingke Island.

Shi Xuan and Zhou Dielan happened to meet on the way to the deck. Seeing Zhou Dielan walking back and forth, Shi Xuan asked curiously: "Miss Dielan, why don't you go to the deck? You have already arrived at the guest island."

"Hello, Brother Shi. I'm waiting for Sister Yu here. She'll be down soon." Zhou Dielan replied politely.

"Well, isn't Miss Yu going with some of her relatives?" Shi Xuan remembered that Yu Ruoshui did not come alone.

Zhou Dielan said with a slight embarrassment: "Sister Yu had a falling out with some of her cousins, so she asked me to wait for her here and go with her."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a female monk in a fiery red dress coming down from the third floor, it was Yu Ruoshui.

"Dielan, let's go. Well, Fellow Taoist Shi is here, why not come together?" Because there was a sound-suppressing formation between the floors, Yu Ruoshui didn't hear the two talking when he came down. When he saw Shi Xuan Still slightly surprised.

The three of them quickly walked from the boat to the small island. In front of them were hundreds of monks, and in front of them was a middle-aged man in blue robes. Behind him were eight young monks in black uniform robes.

Seeing that everyone on the boat had almost disembarked, the middle-aged man in blue robe said to everyone: "I am Li Zhen, the outer deacon of the Penglai sect. Please follow these outer disciples to the Jade Tower." The voice was not loud, but But every monk present heard it clearly.

Following several outer disciples, many monks walked slowly through the forest and walked for a full quarter of an hour before arriving under the Jade Tower.

This jade tower is beautiful and dazzling. The upper part is looming among the white clouds. It looks like a fairy home and has extraordinary majesty.

Entering the Jade Tower, you can see the steps paved with white jade winding and spiraling up to the end that is invisible to the naked eye. The sapphire building body hangs down one after another misty light, making the entire Jade Tower look like a fairyland. . As the light and shadow swayed, one could still vaguely see the jade smoke rising from the white jade steps. Everyone involuntarily took a deep breath and was shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of them. Even Shi Xuan, who had seen many modern special effects, was amazed. .

"So beautiful." Yu Ruoshui and Zhou Dielan murmured to themselves.

Seeing that someone was already walking up the steps, Shi Xuan coughed and woke up the two women beside him: "You two girls, I think our goal is to come to the top of the Jade Tower, so hurry up and go."

Yu Ruoshui and Zhou Dielan were slightly embarrassed and strode forward up the steps.

The jade tower seemed to be only a hundred feet high, but when Shi Xuan and the others were walking on the steps, they felt that it was much more than that, because they had been walking for half an hour, but the steps seemed to be very long.

"Brother Shi, how long do you think we have until we arrive?" Zhou Dielan was already panting.

At this time, Shi Xuan was thinking, could the test begin now? When he heard Zhou Dielan's question, he quickly encouraged her: "It shouldn't be far away, Miss Yu, are you right?"

Yu Ruoshui understood that Shi Xuan was trying to comfort Zhou Dielan. After all, in terms of the effect of physical training, monks in the out-of-body stage are much more durable than monks in the Qi-nurturing stage. He nodded and affirmed Shi Xuan's words: "Fellow Taoist Shi is right, it should be Coming."

I don't know if my wish came true, but after a while, a jade door shining with clear light appeared in front of me.
