Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

"Dean Bai."

When the old man revealed his figure, everyone was surprised and saluted at the same time.

The dean here does not refer to the dean of the Taoist Academy. Just like the deputy dean is also called the dean by ordinary people, the old man is just the dean of the Formation Academy.

But even so, his status is higher than everyone present.

Dean Bai nodded with satisfaction and then said.

"Our Taoist Academy wants this boy."

But as soon as he finished speaking, someone stood up to object.

It wasn't Li Zhugan. At this moment, he was standing in the corner without saying a word, trying hard to pretend that he didn't exist.

The person who spoke was a man who looked meticulous and expressionless.

"Dean Bai, this is against the rules."

"You have to enter the inner courtyard in the end anyway, what's wrong with the rules?"

Dean Bai glared at the man, but the man was not afraid at all, and then began to speak seriously.

"According to Article 36 of the second volume of the Taoist Canon Code, all disciples must first study in the outer courtyard. After one year, their performance will determine whether they can join the inner courtyard."

"There were people who wanted to skip the outer court and directly join the inner court, and even sent a large amount of resources for this purpose, but our dean refused without any hesitation. This can show that..."

"Fart, that time it was just that the guy was too little. Look, if I were to bring you a heavenly or earthly treasure like a Dzi Bead or a Dragon Jade, would you think he would still refuse?"

"No matter how you slander our dean, this matter still won't work."

"Grandma, you have a little facial paralysis, you deserve a beating, right?"

"It's useless for you to scold me, the rules are the rules."

“Rules are meant to be broken!”

"No rules, no standards."

"Fang Yuan is a fart..."

"..."

The two people here were arguing, but the others quietly retreated to the corner.

"Come on, guess how long it will take to convince Dean Bai with facial paralysis."

Someone cheerfully suggested in a low voice.

"Dean Bai has a bad temper. I think his face will be beaten today." Someone shook his head.

"It's hard to say. Although Dean Bai likes to have a bad temper, he doesn't like to do anything. He likes to use formations to instigate people."

"What about the other freshmen? They haven't been evaluated and graded yet?" At this time, someone suddenly interrupted.

"..."

So everyone silently returned to the mirror wall, listening to the arguments behind them, and began to give their own evaluations.

……

Gu Xing returned to his room and locked the door before he had time to read the mysterious book.

【Human Face Tree】

【Weird biological species】

[The tree has a human face, it has a spirit, it can be said. It can bear fruit on the tree. The fruit falls to the ground and turns into a child. If the child is injured and dies, it can swallow all the damage, feed back to the tree body, and bear fruit again. In this way, there will be two lives in one life. , Two gives birth to four, the number multiplied, can be endless. 】

【? ? ? 】

Before Gu Xing saw the true identity of the weird one in the room, there was actually no information about the human-faced tree in the weird book, which was why he had never been able to understand the weird one.

However, Gu Xing was a little surprised that a big tree was imprisoned in a small room.

And when he thought about how many rooms like this there were in the entire Xinshengyuan, and how many similar weird ones there were, Gu Xing felt that the Taoist Temple seemed very mysterious.

After these things happened, Gu Xing couldn't sleep for a while.

In addition, he was also a little dirty and difficult to deal with, so he just sat on the chair and started practicing.

In this way, the night gradually passed, and the morning light shone on Gu Xing through the window.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the door, followed by Roy's voice.

"Brother Gu, are you awake?"

Gu Xing opened his eyes, first looked out the window, made sure it was clear outside, and then spoke.

"Wait."

"it is good."

And after saying that, he didn't move, he just sat.

After a while, Gu Xing got up and opened the door. Roy was indeed outside the door.

He stood outside the door leisurely, with a look of longing for today and the future on his face.

Seeing this, Gu Xing asked casually.

"What happened last night?"

"No." Roy shook his head, "I slept until dawn."

Gu Xing suddenly became confused about this. Could it be that what happened last night was just for him?

But then, Gu Xing discovered that what happened last night was not an exception.

A shout suddenly came out. The sound was not loud, but it reached Gu Xing's ears clearly.

"The freshmen all gather downstairs."

Gu Xing recognized the voice of the tall and thin man, so he took Roy downstairs.

When they got downstairs, they saw that many people who were fine yesterday suddenly walked out with a limp or bruises on their faces today.

"Brother Gu, what's going on with them?" Roy was surprised.

"Just ask them and you'll know?" Gu Xing didn't say much.

Before they could ask, someone came towards them, someone who came with them.

He rubbed his waist and bared his teeth and asked in confusion.

"Why do you look like nothing's wrong? You didn't face any test yesterday?"

"Test? What test?" Roy looked confused.

"Just last night, each of us was attacked by something strange. Afterwards, a very beautiful senior said that this was a test given to us by the Taoist Academy. They will divide us into classes based on our performance when facing strange things."

When Roy heard this, his face suddenly fell.

"It's over. I slept until dawn. They don't think I have any talent so they don't want me and won't even give me a test, right?"

"Don't worry, maybe they just forgot about you?" Gu Xing comforted him.

But Roy wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Rather than being looked down upon, being ignored seems to be more sad..."

"What about you, Gu Xing?" The man looked at Gu Xing.

"I met him, but he was stopped by the beautiful senior you mentioned."

Well, if he hadn't been stopped, there would have been another streak of gray mist on the secret book, and it might have given Gu Xing a strange ability.

But he didn't understand Gu Xing's words and said in surprise.

"Ah, will that beautiful senior still interfere in the test? Isn't he interested in you?"

"Be careful what you say." Gu Xing reminded him, "Maybe she is looking at us."

Suddenly the other party didn't dare to say anything more, and then the three of them walked towards the lanky man.

This time the tall and lanky man was not alone, there were four more behind him...oh no, six.

There are two others who are far away and seem to be discussing something, and the discussion is quite intense.

Gu Xing glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, and then looked at the freshmen who had arrived. There were many unfamiliar faces among them. It seemed that they were not the only freshmen in the Taoist temple.

It didn't take long for the new students to gather together, and those who came with them were still together, and the others were almost the same.

Seeing that the person had almost arrived, the tall and thin man coughed dryly and then spoke.

"Last night's meeting ceremony..."

"its not bad, right?"
