I have a special sword skill when I wear a book

The next day, Shen Yanye took Shen Lian to Mingxin Palace to talk with the elders about recruiting disciples. It was nothing more than a few elders setting up some checkpoints for assessment, and then asked Shen Yanye to decide whether it was feasible.

Every five years, Taiyi Sword Sect will recruit some disciples uniformly, and these disciples are all very young without exception, and most of them are children of casual cultivators.As Taiyi Sword Sect is one of the best sects of cultivating immortals, the threshold is naturally not low.In order to ensure the quality of the apprentices, the elders set the first hurdle for these disciples to walk up the Cloud Climbing Stairs without using any spells.

This level is an extremely test of the skills of the disciples.Although the Cloud Climbing Stairs is not ten thousand feet long, it is not something that anyone can easily climb up.If there is not enough cultivation, I am afraid that I will collapse before reaching one-third of the level.

And for those who have enough cultivation, ascending the cloud ranks is also a test of their character.Whether it is an ordinary casual cultivator or a sword fairy who is about to cross the catastrophe, few people are used to the speed of the magic weapon and the sword, and few people have the patience and are willing to measure the long mountain road with their feet.Therefore, the first test of ascending the clouds can screen out many people, leaving a small number of elites to accept the next test.

"...Those disciples who pass the Cloud Climbing Step will be led by several disciples in the sect, and enter the dreamland." Because Shen Yanye has never been in contact with these before, Elder Hua Ming explained to him patiently, "Those who passed Youmenglin's disciples will be accepted as masters, and we will check their qualifications to decide whether to accept them as direct disciples, and those who are not accepted as direct disciples will be taught by our direct disciples."

Shen Yanye nodded.The Phantom Realm is not a real place, but a Taoist realm transformed by spiritual power.In order to enter the dreamland, the person needs to breathe into meditation and cut off the five senses and six consciousnesses.In the illusion, their mental barriers will be magnified, turning into ghosts and ghosts to fight with them.Because those ghosts are transformed by spirit bodies, they will not cause any danger to people.What's more, there are core disciples protecting the Dharma, in case of accidents, it shouldn't matter.

"Thank you all elders for your dedication to sect affairs."

Shen Yanye sincerely thanked them, and the elders naturally smiled and said something like "I dare not do it".Although he had promised Elder Wuji at the beginning that he would take up the important task of being in charge of the sect, in fact he was only sitting on the position of suzerain.When these elders made up their minds, he was only responsible for making suggestions, and then handed them over to the elders for implementation.

"Elders, there is no need to decline. You have nothing to repay for what you have done to Taiyi Sword Sect over the years."

After finishing speaking, he showed a sincere smile.It's just that the arc of the eyebrows has slowed down slightly, but compared to his usual calm and indifferent expression, it has already added a little agility to that face.The elders responded with smiles one after another, but Yu Ling'er, who was standing behind Elder Wuji, looked at the young suzerain sitting on the top with very complicated eyes, who was the person she had admired since she was a child.

Shen Yanye seldom reveals his thoughts in front of outsiders, and rarely smiles. His handsome features are embedded in a face that is too indifferent, making it difficult for people to feel close; therefore, he finally showed a somewhat approachable expression today. Everyone present probably thought he was really in a good mood.

But Yu Ling'er knew that her senior brother was not such a cold person.

As long as he faced the red-clothed sword spirit behind him, the cold aura around him would subside, like a frozen lake gradually thawing under the sun.She gradually understood that apart from meditating and practicing swords, Shen Yanye would also comfort people, talk at length with people, and show a gentle smile to people without any scruples.

Her eyes fell on the sword spirit again.The man in red stood quietly behind Shen Yanye, his warm eyes quietly watching his master.Even though he got a human name, and even made many people in the sect change their views on the rumored fierce and bloodthirsty Jiehuo Jianling, but he never integrated himself into the circle of people.He has been wandering outside, looking only at the figure of one person.

It's frustrating...

The girl sighed.Although the voice was soft, she was standing behind his master, so Elder Wuji naturally heard her sigh.The old man followed her gaze, but he didn't know whether she was looking at Shen Yanye or Shen Lian.

So the old man also sighed in his heart - after all, children love each other, and his little apprentice is just a girl after all, and it is normal to be troubled by love, but for any woman, Shen Yanye has never been the so-called wishful man.

........................

The day of recruiting disciples was scheduled for two months later, and during these two months, Shen Yanye's life remained unchanged.These days are very peaceful, and there is no major problem within the sect like the disappearance of many disciples a year ago. Lingxiao Sword Sect and Qixia Pavilion, the two deadly enemies of Taiyi Sword Sect, were at the succession ceremony. After Rong Qiu was deprived of his whole body cultivation base and Dao foundation, they also learned to be good, and they have been keeping in touch with Taiyi Jianzong's well water.

As for other sects, such as Qingwei Sect and Luoxing Palace, there are many disciples and elders who have good friends with Taiyi Sword Sect, so they often come here to visit their friends, and they have nothing else to do.

Shen Yanye often holds a few volumes of Taoist scriptures and sits in the pavilion behind Qianling Peak—of course, he never leaves his sword.The sword spirit of Jiehuojian sometimes appeared behind him, chatting with him when he was tired of watching.

Shen Yanye often sits for a whole day, even if the sun is setting and the stars are rising, sometimes he will not return to his bedroom.Shen Lian persuaded him several times to no avail, so she just let it go—anyway, his master is a monk in the Ming Xu period, so how could he be so weak.

He told Shen Yanye his true thoughts, and unexpectedly, he got the master's smile again.Shen Yanye would not be moved by any praise, except for the affirmation of his cultivation and strength.

Ever since Shen Yanye learned how Shen Lian gets along with other people, many people in the Taiyi Sword Sect are not so afraid of him, especially the maids of Qianling Peak, they are in contact with him in the entire sect the most.

"Mr. Shen Lian cares about the suzerain." Chang Honge, the maid, looked at him, her beautiful eyes were full of sighs, "However, that's fine. There is someone who can care about the suzerain. We know that the suzerain's talent is astonishing, and the bones are born naturally." , but...he is not yet a weak crown after all. The suzerain has always had a cold personality since he was a child, except for Miss Yu, you are the only one in the whole sect who talks."

Shen Lian originally wanted to say that he would always protect his master, but his master is not the kind of existence that needs to be protected behind him.However, he is Shen Yanye's sword, and his mission is to protect his master.

"I will always stand by his side."

Shen Lian paused, after all, she didn't say the second half of the sentence, but there was an indistinguishable smile on her lips, a strange light flashed in her dark red eyes, and a trace of it that she didn't even notice. possessiveness.

——Shen Yanye gave him so much warmth, which made him yearn for the feeling of staying by his side, so it was impossible for him to let go.

——No one can get rid of Jiehuo Yaojian.Even if the sword spirit sets up a sword talisman and presents a loyal master.

........................

The days passed quickly, and the day of recruiting disciples arrived in a blink of an eye.Shen Yanye originally wanted to personally go through every level to review, but the elders considered that as the suzerain, he should look like the leader of a faction. If everyone sees that everything about the Taiyi Sword Sect requires the suzerain to personally investigate, Still don't know what to say.Therefore, when the trial of ascending the clouds and the dreamland was going on, he was only responsible for listening to the situation.He will not show up to meet them until the list of all the new disciples who have passed the trial is finalized.

The level of ascending the clouds is controlled by Bi Qiong, the first disciple of the elder Qingluan, but more cautiousness is required for the level of Youmeng.Although everything felt and encountered in the illusion is illusory, it is not a good thing to be trapped in the illusion for a long time, so Shen Yanye arranged for Elder Xuan Yuan's direct disciple Chu Li and Elder Hua Ming's only son Xuan Yun , and Yu Ling'er, three of the younger generation's disciples who have relatively high cultivation bases, protect the disciples who have entered the illusion.At the same time, he also arranged for some outside disciples to patrol back and forth to prevent accidents.

After passing the cloud-climbing stage, there are only a few hundred of the many seekers left.After the Taiyi Sword Sect sent people to settle them down and let them rest for a few days, they arrived at the Mirror Terrace led by Chu Li, Xuan Yun and Yu Ling'er.Although both Chu Li and Xuan Yun were older than Yu Ling'er, Yu Ling'er was the disciple of Elder Wuji after all, so they had no choice but to call her Senior Sister and take her as their elder.

"Junior brothers and sisters, congratulations on getting here. If you can pass the test of heart barrier today, then we will officially become fellow disciples. Please take care of me then."

"My name is Yuhu, and these two are your senior brother Chuli and senior brother Xuanyun. Today, the three of us will lead other brothers and sisters to protect the Dharma for you."

When she said this name, she actually felt a little strange, because this name was accompanied by too many bad memories.Yuhu is her real name, and Ling'er is given by Elder Wuji.On such a solemn occasion, the word "Ling'er" is obviously inappropriate, so she can only choose her real name.

Xuan Yun and Chu Li were dressed in Taoist attire, white clothes with wide sleeves, and they were very elegant, but this girl who looked like she was only sixteen or seventeen years old stood in front of them and spoke on their behalf, and everyone couldn't help talking .At this moment, the girl's face did not have a weak expression in front of Shen Yanye and Elder Wuji.

——Shen Yanye looked different when facing Shen Lian, and when she faced Shen Yanye, it was not the same as she faced other people.

The girl was not wearing the emerald green dress, but just like Xuan Yun and Chu Li, she was wearing an elegant white Taoist robe, and her long black hair was tied up by a white jade crown.The girl didn't put on makeup, and there was nothing else on her body except for the winter jade pendant and the silver tassel that fell from her forehead.This outfit made her look a little cold and serious, even somewhat similar to Shen Yanye, people only dared to look at her from a distance, and did not dare to go up to talk to her in person.

"The Bright Mirror Platform has always been the last test for beginner disciples. The formation map on the ground will send you into the illusion in your heart, where you will meet the things you can't let go of." Yu Ling'er said, "If you can If we successfully walk out of the illusion, then we will be in the same sect from now on."

When everyone heard her mentioning the formation map, they looked down subconsciously, and saw that the ground carved from white jade was really as smooth as a mirror.There are faint silver lines on the ground, which are not obvious because they are somewhat similar to the color of white jade.Some people with excellent eyesight stared at the formation on the ground, and it didn't take long for them to feel dizzy and dazed, as if they had been charmed.

Among the crowd, a woman in a bright yellow dress closed her eyes, and what she heard were the excited conversations of other monks:

"Did you know that the array of the Mingjingtai is said to be drawn by Gu Qingfeng, the law enforcement elder of the Taiyi Sword Sect!" A young man said excitedly, obviously pleased that he knew more than others , "It is said that the law enforcement elders of all dynasties are the elders with the highest mana cultivation in Taiyi Sword Sect!"

"Gu Qingfeng? That world-wandering Sanxian?" Some people around were obviously intrigued, "But it is said that he is practicing the way of swordsman?"

"You don't understand this, do you? Let me tell you, my cousin is a disciple here, she told me this - in fact, what Gu Qingfeng is most proficient in is not swordsmanship, but the method of formation! Legend has it that he... "

……

Everyone talked a lot, but Yu Ling'er didn't stop it.Her gaze swept across the crowd, and finally fixed on the woman in the yellow shirt, raising her eyebrows in a little surprise.

In the hustle and bustle, she lowered her head slightly, but Yu Ling'er could still see her face clearly.Her appearance was exquisite and beautiful, but she lowered her eyebrows, and the expression on her face was misty, as if she and the people around her did not exist in the same space, but this was not what surprised Yu Ling'er.Compared with other monks, she lacked the elegance that a cultivator should have, but was more dignified and dignified, like the daughters of princes and nobles in the mortal world.Yuling'er's heart skipped a beat, and a breath enveloped her, but the breath that came back made her even more speechless.

——This woman has internal strength in her body, but she doesn't have a little bit of cultivation!

Ordinary people, as long as they have internal strength, know some martial arts, but how long it is to climb the clouds, without the support of cultivation base, it is as difficult as climbing the sky!

The girl in a white robe frowned slightly, her eyes fixed on the face of the woman in the yellow shirt.In any case, she passed the cloud-climbing test—either she used some kind of cheating, or she had extraordinary stamina and perseverance, and she accomplished many things that monks could not do!

"Senior Sister Yu?"

Chu Li's voice called her attention back, and the girl noticed that everyone had gradually quieted down.Under Yu Ling'er's signal, everyone meditated on the spot and entered the state of tortoise breathing, and the woman in the yellow shirt also sat down.Yu Ling'er looked at her twice more, and then said to the two people behind her: "Let's start."

Like a gust of wind, the figures of the three moved to the three eyes of the array in an instant.The three of them nodded to each other, and then formed hand seals at the same time.The eyes of the formation were activated, and the formation was filled with white light in an instant, and the silver-white mist seeped out from the formation, enveloping everyone present and covering up the originally glaring sunlight.

The people around only felt that the sunlight that was beating above their eyelids suddenly disappeared, and then they were in a different place as soon as the spiritual platform was cleared.Some people see the scene of starvation and death everywhere, the mountains and rivers are poor, and some people see the scene of singing and dancing, prosperity and prosperity.What men see is mostly the scene after they have achieved fame, power over the world, or ascended after the catastrophe; while women mostly see the wishful man who will stay with them for a lifetime, because what they care most about is their heart barrier .

Although it is different from the Qingwei sect, which advocates cutting off love and love, Taiyi Jianzong supports disciples to have a heart of mortals, because although being clean and clean is the lifelong pursuit of monks, but leaving a little mortal in their hearts is closer to Taoism nature.Leaving a little dusty thought does not mean being bound by that dusty thought.People have no sense of dust, so they have no motivation to move forward, but when dust thoughts become demons, it will hinder the monks' pursuit of the Tao.

Trapped by demons, it is a small matter to lose one's cultivation base, but it is a big problem to go crazy and return to the soul, so it is of great significance for Taiyi Sword Sect to set up this level.

After everyone entered the illusion in their hearts, the fog gradually dissipated, and the sun shone in again, but the three of Yu Ling'er still did not get off the formation.They need to use their own spiritual power to maintain the operation of the entire array, while some other outside disciples who are responsible for patrolling patrol back and forth, and if they see someone showing extreme pain and coughing up blood They wake up from the illusion.

It didn't take long before some people couldn't hold on any longer. They were taken away by disciples one after another, but the woman in the yellow shirt kept sitting where she was with her eyes closed. There was no pain or joy on her face. What suffering.

Yu Ling'er thought she would lose in the first round, but she didn't expect that the sun was gradually setting to the west, and three-quarters of the candidate disciples around her were judged to be disqualified, but the woman in the yellow shirt still sat firmly in place.This illusion can push anyone into his heart-no matter how powerful or how deep he is, so Yu Ling'er is actually a little worried about her.It's not for anything else, she just doesn't want to see someone traumatized by the projection of her heart barrier, after all, she has no cultivation, so she still asks people to pay special attention to her.Unexpectedly, after the trial was over, the woman opened her eyes.She has successfully overcome the heart barrier!

"Congratulations, everyone. You have passed the test. From now on, you will be brothers and sisters." Yu Ling'er's voice filled the audience with a smile, "Next, there will be brothers and sisters to guide you back. Rest. After a few days of cultivation, you will be able to meet the suzerain and the elders. If you can get the true biography of an elder, it is really a great honor, and I hope everyone will cherish it."

There were only a hundred or so people left on the field, and they were all very happy when they heard Yu Ling'er's words.Those with a more cheerful temperament showed joy, while those with a calm temperament also showed a relieved expression.When Yu Ling'er told the people to take everyone back to rest, she took another look at the woman in the yellow shirt.

But this time, she met her gaze.The woman has a pair of beautiful almond eyes, and the light in her eyes is flowing, and she really has a bit of nobility.Yu Ling'er didn't get involved in the mortal world very much, and her understanding of the mortal world was limited to the descriptions of some disciples who were recruited into the sect.They said that the princes and nobles in the mortal world were all arrogant and domineering, but there was no arrogance in the eyes of the woman in the yellow shirt. Instead, she showed a friendly smile to Yu Ling'er, with a dignified and generous demeanor.

Yu Ling'er nodded to her.After a brief eye contact, the two looked away.The woman in the yellow shirt, together with several other women, was taken to Yueqi Mountain where the female disciples lived, while the male disciples were taken to Rixi Valley.Yu Ling'er looked at the direction they were leaving, and said to Chu Li who was standing aside and counting the list: "Junior Brother Chu, that woman in the yellow shirt..."

Chu Li didn't react for a while, and then followed Yu Ling'er's gaze to look over.Probably the other disciples were all wearing black and white, and the bright yellow dress seemed a bit conspicuous in the black and white.

"I only have a list of the new disciples, but I don't know their faces." Chu Li smiled.

"You are the person in charge of recording their names. Before they enter the mountain gate, they have to meet with you." Yu Ling'er said, "You have no impression of such a special person?"

"Okay... I can't say anything about you, Senior Sister." Chu Li spread his hands.She was right, he did have some impressions of this woman, after all, when she asked to accept the entrance trial, he kindly reminded her - because her dantian was full of energy, and she had no cultivation.

"Her name is Fengxi, and she is twenty years old." Chu Li said, "She claims to be the daughter of a martial arts family in the mortal world. The family business is inherited by her elder brother, and she came here to cultivate immortality by herself. ... Oh, what a nonsense .I didn’t start cultivating immortals until I was 20 years old, not even the Qi refining period.”

"You can't say that." Yu Ling'er said, "I think her performance is beyond my expectations. She can pass two checkpoints without any cultivation, maybe she is not an ordinary character....Junior Brother Chu, Why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing, I always feel that Senior Sister can finally focus on other people. That's right, don't always look at the suzerain, he is not the only one in this world."

Chu Li looks like a fool, but he is good at perceiving people's thoughts, not to mention that Yu Ling'er knows Shen Yanye's thoughts clearly from the whole sect.When Shen Yanye was present, Yu Ling'er was dressed up beautifully, she looked more like a mortal girl than a monk.And when Shen Yanye was not present, she looked like a senior sister...

...Of course, in a few years, when she is a grown woman, she might really look like a senior sister, right?Now that it looks like this, I always feel that something is wrong.

Yu Ling'er didn't speak, but just looked at him quietly for a while.Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xuan Yun walking towards this side, she turned around, and said to the two juniors:

"You have worked hard today, go back and rest early. We will present the list to the elders and suzerain tomorrow."
