Dream Picking Records

At this time, the black tiger that had fallen asleep in the sun finally regained consciousness. He woke up, lay on the ground with his two paws holding the back of his head, howling in pain.

"You actually did this to me? You're even more evil than me!" Touching the swollen bump on its head, it couldn't help but let out a hiss, hiss sound.

As if he suddenly remembered something, the black tiger raised his head suddenly and found that the place where the herbs were before was now empty, without even a root left. The whole tiger was stunned.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo, who the hell stole the medicine!"

Seeing that the herbs he was guarding were gone, Hei Hu was so upset that he wanted to cry but had no tears. He was about to break into pieces. He had originally wanted to come in here to take a break, stroll around, and amuse his students under the pretext of guarding the herbs, but who would have thought that this would happen.

"I've been doing fine for so many years, how come I have to run into this bad luck? Which kid is so brave to do this?"

"The assessment isn't over yet, I guess there's still time to make up for it." Hei Hu no longer cared about the bump on the back of his head, and immediately followed after him, smelling the scent of the herbs.

Not long after, the black tiger followed the smell of medicine and reached the destination.

"So soon? Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

Black Tiger's heart was pounding faster and faster, until he found the medicinal soil scattered on the ground... Black Tiger's tightly taut nerves could no longer hold on.

"Oow, ow, ow!"

The cry echoed throughout the forest. When the members of the Gou Sect heard it, they were so frightened that they hurried on their way.

……

The sun that never sets hangs high above the top of the mountain, illuminating the entire secret place. It seems so far away and yet so close.

Ye Xiao and the girl were still playing and didn't care about Wang Xiao who had already reached the top of the mountain.

He had nothing to do, and was still very interested in the mysterious sound that had disappeared. He simply found a place to sit down and see if he could sense it again. Half a day passed like this, and the remaining five people finally arrived on the mountain platform.

During this time, Ye Xiao greeted Wang Xiao and then played with the girl.

Compared to Wang Xiao's calmness, the people who arrived later had exhausted all their strength and almost collapsed as soon as they came up. They didn't care about absorbing spiritual energy to adjust their physical condition, and just wanted to lie on the ground and relax themselves.

After a while, a portal appeared out of nowhere, and Heng Ping, who was in charge of the selection, walked out slowly. Before he saw anyone, his laughter had already reached the ears of ten people. It was obvious that he was still very satisfied with the result, although it was a pity that Cai De was eliminated.

Pingjun stroked his graying beard with his hand, smiling. The more he looked at the people in front of him, the more he liked them.

"Congratulations to you guys for completing the selection first and becoming the core disciples of our academy. After the assessment, the corresponding rewards will be distributed to each of you. Everyone will have their own exclusive residence. In addition, the scriptures in the Sutra Library will be completely open to everyone."

The ten people gathered together at this time, and their reactions were also different. The first four people were not moved at all, and it was a bit embarrassing to watch the balance. Fortunately, seeing Wang Xiao and the remaining five people excited, he was able to save some face. But when he saw the jade cards full of other things on Wang Xiao's waist, his facial muscles twitched.

How many people were robbed?

However, in fact he has been very low-key, and the jade cards were obtained passively.

"Grandpa, can I live with Sister Ye Xiao?" The little girl opened her clear eyes and acted coquettishly towards Hengjun.

Upon hearing this, Hengjun reached out and touched her head, and spoke in a kind and benevolent manner.

"Of course you can. This is your right."

"Great, thank you Grandpa!" The little girl hugged his arm and shook it gently with joy.

Junheng looked at the calm and indifferent boy, then at the ordinary boy. Then he put his hand behind his back, tilted his head and cleared his throat.

"Ahem, do you want to get a better reward?" Hengjun glanced at the two of them, observing their reactions.

Obviously, this whetted everyone's appetite, and even a few indifferent people became interested.

"Is it related to the legendary disappeared hundred steps?" asked the elegant young man.

"Yes, I think most of you have heard something about the academy." Junheng turned his back and looked at the sun in the sky. He was silent for a long time, probably reminiscing.

"Yunshan Sect, how glorious it once was! There were so many masters, and their students were everywhere. The disciples were respected by everyone in the world, and it was the undisputed number one sect. They shed blood and sacrificed for the earth back then, but they tried their best! The other many elders were also under the protection of the sect master, and they returned to the sect with serious injuries after the war. The sect master disappeared until the end of the battle. Alas, it is very likely that he died in the battle..."

At this point, his expression suddenly changed 180 degrees. His robes fluttered in the wind, and he said in a deep voice, "But some people are like bedbugs in the sewer, dirty and filthy, with extremely foul souls. After the high-ranking members of my sect were seriously injured and died of illness, they took advantage of the opportunity to attack us while we were recuperating, trying to retaliate and plunder our skills and treasures. If we hadn't received timely support from all parties, even the current Yunshan Academy would be gone."

Pingheng looked disappointed. "It's a pity that the glory and power that was once so prosperous and admired by all parties disappeared overnight. Many of our important things were looted, and the towering Yunshan Mountain, which was once a symbol, was also cut into several sections. My ancestors and some of the remaining disciples, under the protection of all parties, collected the scattered scriptures and established the current Yunshan Academy. The mountain with 900 steps under our feet is the most important part of it."

"Since it is the most important, why is it still preserved? Will the enemy be so merciful?" Wang Xiao also looked puzzled.

“It is said to be the most important, but also the most useless.” Hengjun said helplessly.

"Back then, the sect master placed a technique and a treasure into the missing hundred steps as the most important test for the sect's best disciples to find. At that time, all the major hostile forces also tried to search for them, sending out their most core disciples and trying every possible way to obtain them. It is said that only one person found the ladder and obtained some scriptures, but that person did not last long at the top and fell down, resting for a long time. All the enemies were helpless, and later, with the intervention of all parties, they made an agreement that we must not prevent the enemy from coming here to comprehend, and only then would this peak be returned to us."

Hengjun sighed and continued, "In the past ten thousand years, all parties have sent people to try their luck in order to obtain our clan's treasure, but they all returned empty-handed. Occasionally, a few people found the remaining steps but could not climb to the top. Seeing their lost and embarrassed looks, we, the descendants, can feel a little relieved. Just like that, gradually, no one came anymore."

After saying that, Hengjun turned around and looked at the spiritual girl, the extraordinary young man and the ordinary boy.

In comparison, Wang Xiao and Ye Xiao were brought back from outside by Yang Qian. They did not take the initiative to join the academy, so their backgrounds are slightly cleaner.

"So why don't you try your luck? Maybe you will get recognition!" Hengjun said jokingly, sweeping away his melancholy.

The five people who came up later hurriedly shook their heads. So many geniuses had tried it over the past ten thousand years, but they were bored and had no results. What about them?

The first nine hundred steps were exhausting, and they still haven't recovered. However, they turned their eyes to the five people who came up early. They had seen their performance on the steps, and each one was faster than the other. Therefore, they were happy to watch their performance. It was easy to be a spectator.

"Grandpa, do you have any tips about ancestral heritage?" Ye Xiao asked with a smile. The girl's sweet smile really won the old man's favor, but it was still a pity to get a negative answer.

"Young man, don't be discouraged. Didn't we say that someone obtained part of the scriptures? Back then, that person's fighting power soared, and he dominated an era. Later, he was called the founder and led his disciples to ascend to heaven."

Hengheng tempted him again, and he was also very emotional. After all, it was just a fragment of the scripture that was already like this. Since it was obtained by the enemy, although he was angry, he could do nothing about it.

Who doesn't want to be a powerful person? Seeing their trance-like look, Hengjun added: "How about it, do you want to give it a try? Just go to the altar over there and sit cross-legged to release your potential. The rest depends on your luck."
