Chapter 10 It seems like he is really going to be in the spotlight now!
clang!
A long and ancient bell sound came from above the main peak, resounding throughout the entire Juetian Sect.
All the disciples stopped talking or practicing, and looked towards the highest point.
Cranes gather here, and the Milky Way stretches out like a waterfall to connect to each sub-peak.
Lead all the elders back.
In an instant, the red maple leaves on the mountain peaks in the clouds fluttered, and the palace hidden in it gradually emerged, magnificent and stunning, so stunning that it made people fascinated.
Jiang Jiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he stood below.
"It's different to see it in real life. It's so beautiful."
Today is the annual large-scale ceremony to check the disciples' cultivation. As new disciples, most of them are just there to make up the numbers.
Only the best few disciples are worthy of attention.
According to the plot, after today's spirit-testing ceremony, the disciples who have passed the minimum standard will be taken to form a contract with their natal sword, where they will pick up a small coal ball with wings. Yes, that is the Demon God himself.
Jiang Jiu decided that when the time comes she would do the opposite of what Ye Yiyi does: if she goes left, she would go right.
It's definitely better to stay away from her.
At some point, Yu Zimo had appeared on the main peak.
As the only disciple under Ji Chen, Yu Zimo is also the focus today.
Although he has an eye disease, he is very fast in cultivation, is gentle and polite, and has a very good appearance.
He was only 30 years old, but he had reached the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm a year ago, ranking first among all disciples, only slightly lower than the elders of each peak.
But in terms of combat power, Yu Zimo is probably better.
Because of Yu Zimo's appearance, the attention originally focused on Jiang Jiu decreased a lot, and everyone showed some admiration for this senior brother to a certain extent.
The moment Jiang Jiu's eyes met Yu Zimo, he looked away.
I offended him half a month ago, so it’s better for me to keep quiet now.
"Disciples, listen up! Today's spiritual energy testing ceremony will place a child stone from the spiritual energy stone and mother stone on each disciple. Place your hand on it, and it will reveal your current spiritual energy concentration."
"Once the spiritual energy stabilizes, the servants will record it and present it to the Sect Master."
A faint voice came from afar, but I couldn't make out who was saying it.
It came from the Jueyun Temple with its carved beams and painted buildings above.
All the disciples began to gather towards the Immortal Bridge, waiting for the distribution of the stones.
Ji Chen and a group of elders were sitting in the Jueyun Temple, waiting for the spirit-testing ceremony to end so that they could take the qualified disciples to the forbidden area to choose their natal sword.
Juetian Sect is the only sect that has the inheritance of the Sword Immortal.
Not only is the ancient evil demon sealed deep in the forbidden area, but there is also the foundation of the Juetian Sect, a top secret realm called Tianji Sword Tomb.
Many sword cultivators had died in battle there, and there were a large number of their natal swords that had not yet lost their intelligence.
If a disciple is favored by these ancient sword spirits that have experienced the erosion of time, it will add a top-level combat force to the Juetian Sect.
If it is not chosen, there are also sword embryos that the sect artificially places there for germination every year.
After being nourished by sword energy for many years, they are all top-notch treasures even if placed outside.
Although it is not as good as a sword spirit with intelligence, it is easier to train. If its cultivation level increases in the later stage, it is possible to give birth to a new sword spirit.
However, the ancient sword spirits were different. After all, they were not sword spirits that had been in harmony since birth. While they brought the benefit of a rapid increase in cultivation, they also had a certain risk of backlash.
Of course, if you have no talent for sword cultivation, you can also switch to cultivation such as alchemy cultivation, talisman cultivation, formation cultivation, etc. Although Juetian Sect is not outstanding, it is much better than small sects.
After all, only a few people can obtain their natal sword.
"The headmaster has recruited two disciples this year. Although they joined the sect a little late, their physique and talent are both exceptional."
"Should we make a bet on how many levels Jiang Jiu and Ye Yiyi's cultivation will reach?"
The second elder said with a smile.
"The Sect Master is very busy and doesn't have much time to discipline his disciples. Even if their cultivation is a little weak, there's no need to be too harsh on them."
The third elder glanced at Ji Chen, whose eyes were indifferent and ruthless, and spoke for him as if to rescue him.
"I bet it's the fifth level of Qi Refining. It's only been a month since I started practicing, and it's not easy to reach this level of cultivation."
Seeing that Ji Chen had no desire to speak, the Great Elder could only silently respond to the Third Elder's words.
"Hey, that's not right. They are the most outstanding disciples in this batch. Just saying they are at the fifth level is too much of an insult to our master. They should be at least at the seventh level of Qi Refining."
It's unclear whether the Third Elder was praising or had a deeper meaning in his words.
Ji Chen lifted his drooping eyelids and looked at the Third Elder with an indifferent expression.
"Zimo wants to spar with your senior disciple."
Regardless of whether this is true or false, Yu Zimo really wants to fight with others.
But this sentence hit the third elder's sore spot, and his face turned green instantly.
He was arrogant by nature, and the proudest among his disciples had just passed the Nascent Soul stage. If he were placed outside, he could even support a small sect, but under Yu Zimo's oppression, the little Nascent Soul stage disciple was simply vulnerable.
Having been suppressed for a long time, he has been feeling unbalanced for a long time.
Many people now speculate that if Yu Zimo is willing to give it his all, it might not be impossible for him to defeat the Third Elder himself.
After all, among the six elders, only the third elder is the weakest.
"Haha, Zimo is very talented, why not compete with the new disciples in strength?"
The third elder was choked for a moment and could only laugh dryly and try to save his dignity.
The tone sounded a bit gnashing of teeth.
The Great Elder looked at Ji Chen with some surprise. His temperament was somewhat similar to that of the Sword Immortal himself. He did not fight or compete, was not concerned with worldly matters, was detached from the world, and had no interest in anything.
No matter how much the Third Elder provoked him in the past, he remained indifferent.
It's really rare that someone would retort today.
Sure enough, looking into the eyes of several other elders besides him, it seemed that he was not the only one who thought so.
"The mother and child stones have already sensed the situation, and the child stones have already flown out one by one."
The Sixth Elder looked at the jade token in front of him and spoke at the right time.
The spiritual energy mother and child stone is also a treasure of the Juetian Sect. It can be used as a tool to test the cultivation level on a daily basis, and it can be used when a real war breaks out.
It can also be used to suppress evil deeds other than those of its own people.
As long as the child stone is carried on the body, it will not be marked as an enemy by the mother stone, and the exorcism effect will not take effect on one's own family members.
The conversation just now was not very pleasant, but everyone was still very curious about the level of Jiang Jiu's cultivation.
You should know that the fastest cultivation record at present was created by Ji Chen himself. He broke through the foundation-building stage in one month, which is comparable to the results of three or four years of cultivation for an ordinary person.
In the path of cultivation, the higher your level, the slower your progress.
Everyone in the temple focused their attention on the disciples, especially Jiang Jiu.
Soon, there were cries of surprise and doubt in the hall, and the second elder even stood up from his seat.
"Wait, this ginger wine..."
Ji Chen's eyes moved slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.
In fact, Jiang Jiu himself is also very panicked and at a loss.
She had no idea that even Ji Chen, the most beautiful girl on the mountain, lost his composure for her.
