【Chapter 083】Daojun Haoyan
【Chapter 083】Daojun Haoyan
Jun Han and Nangong Suhao walked side by side in front, while Ye Yishen and Nangong Chenyu lagged behind them by two steps.
As you walk through the door, you can see the entire house at a glance.
There are several very spiritual landscape paintings hanging on each of the three walls. The furniture made of thousand-year-old nanmu is carved with exquisite patterns. There is a display stand on each side, which is filled with magic weapons.
The first impression that the things in the house gave Nangong Chenyu was that the person living here was a wealthy man, making him feel as if he had entered a magic weapon shop.
Ye Yishen and Nangong Suhao did not have the same vision as Nangong Chenyu, but they could also see that the things in the house were not ordinary things.
After seeing the things in the main room, Jun Han couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. When he came yesterday, there was nothing in the room except a coffee table and a few chairs.
Sitting at the top seat in the main hall was a man who looked to be about 27 or 28 years old. He was wearing a white robe and a jade crown on his head. He had a handsome face, three-dimensional features and a pair of bright eyes.
He is Jun Han’s master—Daojun Haoyan.
He is also the supreme elder of Yunjue Palace.
At the same time, Daojun Haoyan is also a ninth-level weapon refiner.
Jun Han stepped forward and saluted.
"Greetings, Master."
Without waiting for him to introduce himself, Nangong Suhao followed suit and saluted: "Nangong Suhao greets Master."
Jun Han: “…”
Daoist Master Hao Yan: “…”
The air suddenly became very quiet.
After five seconds, the first person sitting there didn't respond. Nangong Chenyu took two steps forward, stood beside Nangong Suhao, and bowed to the man sitting in the first seat.
"Junior Nangong Chenyu greets senior."
Seeing this, Ye Yisheng also took two steps forward and performed the junior’s greeting: “Junior Ye Yisheng greets senior.”
Taoist Hao Yan came to his senses and quickly used his spiritual energy to lift up several people.
"I already know the purpose of your coming to Yunjue Palace."
Nangong Chenyu and the other two didn't say anything and let Taoist Haoyan look at them.
After a while, Daoist Hao Yan set his eyes on Nangong Su Hao: "Your name is Nangong Su Hao?"
"Yes, Master."
Nangong Suhao called "Master" very fluently.
Daoist Master Hao Yan asked: "I heard that you have a fire spirit root?"
Nangong Suhao nodded: "Yes."
Daoist Hao Yan continued, "Jun Han is my only disciple. Since he has chosen you as his Taoist partner, I will not object to you two being together."
Nangong Suhao thanked him politely: "Thank you, Master, for your help."
Seeing that Daoist Hao Yan didn't get to the point for a long time, Jun Han called out softly, "Master."
Taoist Hao Yan raised his hand and signaled Jun Han not to speak.
"Nangong Suhao, I would like to accept you as my disciple, but you must pass the test I set. Of course, if you don't want to take me as your master, you can refuse."
Although your fellow Taoist master and your own master are both masters, there is a big difference between the two.
Nangong Suhao knew it very well, so he replied without thinking: "I am willing to accept the test."
Daoist Master Hao Yan pointed at a painting on the far right wall and said, "Go stand in front of that painting for a quarter of an hour."
Looking in the direction of his finger, Nangong Suhao saw a landscape painting. This test seemed a bit strange, but Nangong Suhao didn't ask any questions and walked straight towards the painting.
After Nangong Suhao stood in front of the painting and made sure that he had entered the illusion in the painting, Daoist Haoyan set his eyes on Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen.
"You two have no master-disciple relationship with me. Two months later, Yunjue Palace will recruit disciples. At that time, you can participate in the entrance examination of Yunjue Palace with others."
"You will stay at Yunmiao Peak to practice for the next two months."
Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, senior."
The spiritual energy in Yunjue Palace is much richer than that outside. Practicing for one day in Yunjue Palace is equivalent to practicing for one month outside.
"This is our first meeting, so I don't know what you like." Daoist Master Hao Yan pointed at the things in the main hall and said, "Some of these magic weapons were made by me, and some were obtained by me accidentally. You can each pick two!"
Jun Han was very shocked by his master's attitude towards Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen. You know, as the only disciple of Taoist Haoyan, he doesn't have the privilege of choosing any magic weapon he wants.
Also, his master's tone of voice today was so gentle that it didn't seem like his real self. If he didn't know his master's abilities, he would have suspected that his master had been possessed by someone else.
What made him feel even more unbelievable was that Nangong Chenyu actually refused.
"No merit, no reward. Thank you for your kindness, senior."
Nangong Chenyu didn't want to refuse, but Daoist Haoyan's attitude was too strange. Even with the relationship with Jun Han, Daoist Hao Yan would not give them two magic weapons, let alone let them choose one at will.
"Are you thinking it's too little?" Taoist Hao Yan's tone was not as gentle as before, but contained a hint of displeasure.
Nangong Chenyu quickly rejected it: "It's not too little."
“Since you don’t think it’s too little, then go and pick one.” Taoist Hao Yan’s tone left no room for doubt.
Hearing the familiar tone, Jun Han knew that his master's gentle demeanor just now was all fake.
Although he didn't know why his master treated Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen preferentially, he knew that if Nangong Chenyu refused again, his master's hot temper would definitely not be suppressed.
"Xiao Yu, Yisheng, my master has many magic weapons, and he is also a weapon refiner. You don't have to be polite to him." As he said this, Jun Han winked at Nangong Chenyu and the others, signaling them to go and choose quickly.
Nangong Chenyu replied politely: "Then I will be disrespectful to refuse it."
Ye Yisheng thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness, senior."
Taoist Haoyan waved his hand, signaling the two to go and choose quickly.
Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen walked to the shelf on the left first. It is difficult to know the real functions of the various magic weapons on it just by looking at their appearance.
After a quick glance, Ye Yisheng's eyes fell on a five-colored umbrella: "Can an umbrella be used as a magic weapon?"
"You have a good eye. That is a seventh-level magic weapon, the Five Elements Lightning Protection Umbrella." Daoist Hao Yan explained, "When you are going through a tribulation, you can use it to resist the lightning tribulation. When fighting, it can absorb attacks from the five elements' spiritual energy."
It sounded very powerful, and Ye Yishen hesitated for a moment before taking the Five Elements Lightning Umbrella in his hand.
He walked forward while looking at the magic weapons on the shelf.
Before he knew it he had reached the end of the shelf. When he looked up, he saw the landscape painting hanging on the wall. Suddenly, the landscape painting in front of him turned into a farmyard.
He rubbed his eyes, and the painting in front of him was still a landscape painting.
Glancing at his movements, Daoist Master Hao Yan asked, "Ye Yisheng, what did you see in the painting just now?"
Ye Yisheng turned around to look at Daoist Hao Yan and replied, "A small farmyard."
A flash of surprise flashed across Daoist Hao Yan's eyes, and then he said, "I suggest you choose this as your second magic weapon."
"Senior, do you know what the purpose of this painting is?" Ye Yisheng asked.
"You will know once you recognize your master." Taoist Hao Yan did not say it explicitly.
Ye Yisheng: “…” It’s useless to ask.
However, he still listened to the advice of Taoist Haoyan and chose this landscape painting.
For Nangong Chenyu, a sword cultivator, other than the sword, all other magic weapons are dispensable. Therefore, the swords on the shelf were his first target.
Unfortunately, the attributes of the swords don't match his.
Seeing Nangong Chenyu's intention, Daoist Haoyan reminded him: "Nangong Chenyu, if you want a spiritual sword, you can go to the sword tomb in Jianxia Mountain."
"Thank you for telling me, senior." Nangong Chenyu silently memorized the place name Jianxia Mountain.
Daoist Hao Yan waved his hand and said, "You can take a look at the other magic weapons on the shelf."
"good."
Nangong Chenyu looked at the magic weapon on the shelf carefully.
Suddenly, a hint of green entered his eyes.
He walked over a few steps, reached out and took a piece of green dragon scale in his hand. The cool touch gave him a familiar feeling.
"Heart-protecting scales." He whispered softly.
Ye Yishen walked to Nangong Chenyu and happened to hear his murmurs. I asked curiously, "What is the Heart Protector Scale?"
Nangong Chenyu explained: "The hardest scales on a dragon's body usually have three pieces, located on the chest, which is an important defensive part of the dragon."
Ye Yisheng asked: "Do you want to choose it?"
Nangong Chenyu nodded.
Just based on the sudden sense of familiarity, he would also choose the Heart Scale.
Based on his feeling, Nangong Chenyu then chose a jade plate with a dragon carved on it.
"Senior, we have made our choice."
"Yes." Daoist Hao Yan pointed to a chair in the main hall and said, "Sit down and wait!"
Nangong Chenyu took a look at Nangong Suhao's condition before sitting down on the chair.
The painting in front of Nangong Suhao looks like a landscape painting, but in fact it is a world of its own. Only those who are pulled into the painting know what is going on inside.
Taoist Haoyan's purpose is to recruit disciples. Nangong Chenyu guessed that the painting should be a test of a person's will and character.
Nangong Suhao, who is trapped in the illusion of the painting, is facing various temptations. Sometimes it is a beautiful woman, sometimes it is gold, silver and jewelry, sometimes it is the throne, sometimes it is a mountain of sacred stones, and sometimes it is a treasure that can make people become immortals.
Nangong Suhao, who had never seen an illusion before, was completely confused at first. The beauty, like a fairy from heaven, was wearing sexy clothes and smiling sweetly at him. Fortunately, he quickly realized that something was wrong and did not fall for it.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Nangong Suhao woke up and escaped from the illusion. Because Taoist Haoyan asked him to stand in front of the painting for a quarter of an hour, he did not move even after he woke up.
It was not until a quarter of an hour had passed that he turned to look at Daoist Master Hao Yan: "Master, a quarter of an hour has passed. Can I come over now?"
Daoist Hao Yan said, "Hmm," "Come here!"
Standing in the middle of the hall, Nangong Suhao looked at Daojun Haoyan expectantly: "Master, have I passed the test?"
"Passed."
Daoist Master Hao Yan stood up and said to Nangong Chenyu and the other two, "You three just wait here." Then he said to Nangong Suhao, "Come with me."
Nangong Suhao followed immediately.
The two of them walked into the door on the left side of the lobby one after the other.
Nangong Chenyu asked Jun Han in a low voice: "Brother Jun, do you know what the senior took my brother to do?"
Jun Han: "Master is taking Su Hao to worship the ancestor."
At the same time, Daoist Hao Yan handed the incense to Nangong Su Hao: "This is the ancestor of our lineage."
