The final destination is a tall and beautiful mountain.
“This is the Holy Maiden Peak.”
This peak was not completely covered by clouds, and a large part of it was exposed, allowing Zhou Qing to see some of the scenery clearly.
The mountain flowers are in full bloom, the streams are flowing, the bluestones are like sculptures, and the ancient pines are welcoming guests, full of vitality and vigor.
Butterflies are flying, birds are singing and animals are chirping, the atmosphere is full of inspiration and vitality is almost visible.
These scenes and objects are not simply beautiful. From the perspective of practitioners, one can see more. They are incomparably magnificent and gorgeous, and exude a tranquil atmosphere.
It makes people subconsciously feel solemn and think that this place is sacred and inviolable.
Excluding some extremely special places, the environment of Holy Maiden Peak can be said to be the best in Suzhen Palace.
"There is nothing better than this in the fairy mountains."
Zhou Qing's praise was sincere.
The Holy Maiden Peak is so rich in the vital energy of heaven and earth that it can be seen with the naked eye.
The vaporization and liquefaction of the vital energy of heaven and earth actually happen here, and it is extremely gentle, without any wildness, and can be easily refined by people.
If you practice in such an environment, as long as your talent is not hopelessly bad, you will eventually be able to achieve something.
“You are overrated.”
Jiang Yanyao smiled, then took the lead and stepped onto the mountain.
"When you go to Xuandu Temple and become a true disciple, you will also have a sacred peak of your own."
Zhou Qing followed and said at the same time: "There is no Holy Son in Xuandu Temple."
What this means is that no other true disciple will be treated like you.
Saint Suzhen is special and incomparable to all other true disciples in Suzhen Palace in all aspects.
Jiang Yanyao said: "The ten great disciples of Xuandu Temple are also well-known throughout the world, especially the first disciple, who is a role model for all disciples of Xuandu Temple."
Then she glanced at Zhou Qing and said, "I think you will have a place in the future Xuandu's top ten true disciples."
"Hahaha." Zhou Qing laughed.
"Then I'll lend you my good words."
There are no holy sons or holy daughters in Xuandu Temple, but there are also distinctions between the true disciples.
The ten most outstanding ones are the ten true disciples, and their treatment is obviously better than that of other true disciples.
Among them, the first true disciple is extremely famous and is the face of the disciples of Xuandu Temple, and is comparable to the most outstanding geniuses of other forces.
Especially after the first true disciple has fully grown up, the chance of becoming the master of Xuandu Temple will be greater.
With experience like the First True Teaching, your resume will look very good and be extremely competitive.
Of course, this is only a theoretical opportunity.
After all, if the current abbot of Xuandu Temple does not pass away, the temple will probably not re-elect a abbot.
If you want to become one of the top ten true disciples or even the number one true disciple, there is no shortcut. You can only rely on your talent and strength to overwhelm all other true disciples and reach the top step by step.
Even if the master of Xuandu Temple, with his status as an immortal, forcibly designated a person as the first true disciple, people would not be convinced unless that person could surpass all others in skills.
Lu Qingmo was once one of the ten true disciples of Xuandu. It was a legendary experience for him to be able to obtain peerless Taoist skills outside.
However, even with the ten true teachings of Xuan Du, there is no guarantee that one can grow up smoothly. Once an accident occurs, one will die and his path will be cut off.
From the establishment of Xuandu Temple to the present day, many geniuses have fallen.
Zhou Qing naturally also wanted to become one of the ten true disciples of Xuandu, or even the first true disciple.
If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish? Besides, this is not just a simple title, there are endless benefits.
For example, after being promoted to a true disciple, one can directly get a Tianwuxue reward, but if one wants to learn it later, it is not free.
But if you can rank among the top ten, you can directly get the Tianwu School rewards again, and you may even have the opportunity to come into contact with peerless magic skills.
These are real benefits. If you don't fight for them, others will fight for them and enjoy them.
On the way to the mountain, I met some small animals, perhaps we could call them monsters.
For example, squirrels, cats, birds and so on.
They are not afraid of strangers. Instead, they will take the initiative to come to Zhou Qing and the others, play with them, and give them some mountain fruits.
Zhou Qing could feel that these monsters were very intelligent and peaceful. They did not have any savagery or bestiality in their hearts and would never hurt anyone.
Zhou Qing sighed: "There are auspicious beasts in the blessed land."
"They can't be called auspicious animals, they are just some cute little guys."
Jiang Yanyao became more gentle and approachable when facing these little animals.
Zhou Qing has always felt that this saint lady is very different from the geniuses of the major sects.
Occasionally, they would meet a few disciples practicing in the mountains. After seeing the two of them, these disciples were obviously surprised at Zhou Qing's appearance.
However, they just saluted Jiang Yanyao from a distance and did not come over to disturb her.
The saint does things without them questioning.
Even if the saint brought a man back.
After they left, Zhou Qing asked in a low voice: "Are all these disciples from the Holy Maiden Peak?"
"They trust me, and I get along well with them, so they are willing to join the Holy Maiden Peak."
Jiang Yanyao replied, "Most of them are inner disciples, with a few Su Zhen disciples."
"When the next Saint appears in the future, they will also leave Saint Maiden Peak with me."
When Zhou Qing heard this, he was secretly surprised that there was actually a true disciple practicing in the Holy Maiden Peak.
Although different from Xuandu Temple, in Suzhen Palace, true disciples are also qualified to have an area of their own where they can call the shots.
Coming to the Holy Maiden Peak to practice means that they have given up on being independent and chosen to follow Jiang Yanyao.
But on second thought, Jiang Yanyao will definitely inherit the position of Palace Master in the future. By then, all the Su Zhen disciples will be equivalent to following her.
It's just the difference between later and earlier.
If we follow now in advance, we will be the dragon's loyal minister. Isn't that equivalent to avoiding decades of detours?
What a smart man.
Speaking of the next generation of Saintess, Zhou Qing had actually imagined something before. That is, after Shen Yu came to Suzhen Palace, was there a possibility that she would directly cause a reaction from the Suzhen Palace's immortal artifacts, and then be directly designated as the next Saintess...
You want to ask him why he thinks this way? Isn't it written like this in the storybook?
But it turned out that he was overthinking.
This world is so vulgar.
They went all the way to the top of the Holy Maiden Peak, which was Jiang Yanyao's residence. Normally, if anyone came to see her, they would meet here.
In a small palace, Zhou Qing sat down and said with a smile:
"As I walked along this path, I felt even more that this was a fairyland."
“If I am lucky enough to become the true disciple of Xuandu Temple, I just hope that my True Disciple Peak can be half as good as this fairy mountain.”
But before Jiang Yanyao could say anything, the sound of footsteps was heard outside the hall, and someone came running towards them, accompanied by loud shouts.
"Sister! Sister! Are you there?"
Then a short figure rushed in. Just as he was about to run towards Jiang Yanyao, he saw Zhou Qing and stopped.
A pair of clear big eyes stared at Zhou Qing with curiosity, as if wondering who he was.
The visitor was a little girl, and Zhou Qing thought she was about twelve or thirteen years old.
Jiang Yanyao waved at the little girl and said:
"Huanhuan, this is my sister's friend, her name is Zhou Qing."
The little girl said crisply, "Hello, brother."
Zhou Qing smiled and nodded, "You too."
The little girl ran to sit next to Jiang Yanyao. Jiang Yanyao smiled and touched her head, saying, "Zhou Qing is here to see Junior Sister Shen. He and Junior Sister Shen used to study in the same martial arts hall and they were very close senior and junior sisters."
"Oh!" The little girl's eyes lit up, "So he's Sister Yu's junior fellow apprentice!"
"That's also my junior fellow apprentice!"
"You can't say that. Zhou Qing is not a disciple of Suzhen Palace." Jiang Yanyao asked:
"You came to see me, what's the matter?"
"I came to practice with my sister."
"Then you go to our training place first. I'll come to accompany you later. Zhou Qing and I have something to talk about."
"OK!"
The little girl was very obedient. She said hello to Zhou Qing and ran out again.
Zhou Qing looked at the energetic and vibrant little girl's back, smiled, and said:
"Is there such a young disciple on the Holy Maiden Peak? But I think her cultivation is very good."
More than good, such a young child is already a warrior at the Tendon and Veins Realm, and most likely he is not even at the level of a beginner at the Tendon and Veins Realm.
She could kill Zhou Qing, who was the same age as her, with one punch.
Jiang Yanyao said: "Huanhuan has a special physique, it is the Jade Yin Body, whether it is martial arts training or soul training, it is very helpful. She is thirteen years old this year, but she is already very good."
"She is already a true disciple of Suzhen Palace."
The top Taoist master at the age of thirteen?
Zhou Qing was shocked. In that situation, they were probably identified as true disciples as soon as they entered the sect, and they were the same group of people who appeared directly in Rome.
But this is normal. The descendant of the deceased Tongtian realm has the body of Yuyin and is completely trustworthy. He can be directly regarded as the true disciple without any problem.
And as expected, at the age of thirteen, he has already reached the tendons and veins realm.
You have to know that in Heiyun Town, if one has reached the tendons and veins realm at the age of sixteen, he can already be called a genius.
But such a thirteen-year-old girl has already reached more than the initial stage of tendon and vein cultivation. If the genius of Black Cloud Town were placed here, he would be defeated by such a child.
The top Taoist school is truly amazing.
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
But, is there a special physique...
Such people are indeed blessed by nature and are born geniuses in cultivation.
This special genius who was rarely seen outside before, now I actually met one as soon as I entered Suzhen Palace.
And there must be more than one case like Yao Huanhuan. From this, we can infer that the situation at Xuandu Temple is probably similar.
When Zhou Qing gets there, he will probably find that all his peers are perverted.
Su Zhen's trip will show Zhou Qing the power of a top Taoist sect.
Jiang Yanyao directly told Zhou Qing about Yao Huanhuan's Jade Yin Body, which seemed a bit careless and not careful enough.
But there is actually no problem.
Which family has produced an outstanding disciple and what is so special about him is not something that will be kept secret.
In the future, the name Yao Huanhuan will surely be known to the world, and by then her Jade Yin Body will certainly no longer be hidden.
Suzhen Palace has the confidence to allow disciples to fully display their talents.
"When I was thirteen, I was probably still playing in the mud. I didn't even know what cultivation was." Zhou Qing smiled helplessly.
"But there are people who are already Jinmai Realm warriors at the age of thirteen, and who have mastered the Su Zhen Zhen Chuan, and who could kill me at the age of thirteen with one punch."
“No comparison.”
"You are too modest." Jiang Yanyao shook her head.
"You have cultivated to this point in one year, and it has been useless. A genius like Huan Huan is far inferior to you."
It would be fine if there was no comparison, but once there was a comparison, one would find that Zhou Qing’s previous cultivation career was truly against the will of heaven.
A thirteen-year-old tendon warrior is truly amazing.
But how to evaluate less than a year of bone refining and daily travel? When Jiang Yanyao first arrived in Heiyun Town and learned about Zhou Qing's news, she was shocked and felt a little unbelievable.
Otherwise, how could Cui Yaozhi, Feixian Daozi and other true disciples of top Taoist sects have that attitude towards Zhou Qing?
It's because its performance is so shocking that we can't look down on it.
The more extraordinary one's background and the more knowledgeable one is, the more one can understand the horror of such performance after knowing it.
Local forces in Heiyun Town, such as Tenglong Martial Arts School, only felt that Zhou Qing's training speed was too incredible, but they had no specific idea of his specific level.
But Jiang Yanyao, Feixian Daozi and others know it.
This incredible performance must involve many things.
"Huanhuan and Junior Sister Shen have a very good relationship. Although they have only known each other for more than two months, they are already very good friends."
Jiang Yanyao added: "Sometimes when I don't have time, Huanhuan always plays with Junior Sister Shen."
"That's good."
Zhou Qing agreed that Shen Yu should build a good relationship with such a Su Zhen genius. Even if one does not think from a utilitarian perspective, this would allow Shen Yu to live a happier life here.
It's always good to have more friends.
"There are still many empty houses in Suzhen Mountain. They were built by the former disciples of the Holy Maiden Peak and were left behind. I did not demolish them."
"You can find a room to stay in and wait for Junior Sister Shen to come back."
"It's troublesome."
"It's not a big deal." Jiang Yanyao paused and continued:
"In the next few days, I'm afraid some disciples will be curious about you and may want to compete with you. After all, many people in Suzhen Palace know your name."
"If you are willing, just agree to them. If you are not willing, it doesn't matter."
Zhou Qing was slightly surprised, "The disciples of Suzhen Palace know me?"
"Of course, you are a peerless genius born in Black Cloud Town without any support from any sect. How could the disciples who went to Black Cloud Town not mention you to their friends in the palace?"
Jiang Yanyao smiled and said, "It's a legendary experience, isn't it?"
"But don't worry, no one will force you, and nothing unfair will happen, and no one will have ill will towards you."
"This is Saint Maiden Peak, no one dares to mess around."
It was just a simple sentence, but it revealed unparalleled confidence and a sense of... arrogance.
This is my territory, no one dares to offend me or go against my will! This is the Suzhen Saint, who possesses a status and majesty that is incomparable to other true disciples.
Even a master at the Biluo Tongtian realm cannot force Saint Suzhen to do anything.
Saint Suzhen only needs to listen to the words of the previous saint because she is her master, but she does not have to follow her every word.
Because apart from the master-disciple relationship, their status is equal, and they are the same when it comes to immortal weapons.
For example, in Xuandu Temple, although the first true disciple is the leader among the disciples, it is impossible to say that every Xuandu true disciple is convinced by him and does not covet his position.
The second true disciple is only one step away from the first. Doesn't he want to go up? Don't other true disciples want to sit on the first true disciple's throne? They all want to!
But in Suzhen Palace, any true disciple is below the Saint. How can you sit in the position of the Saint?
If you don't succeed when you get started, you will never have another chance in the future. You can't even think about it. It's useless even if you think about it.
Who dares to go against the Saint, or even directly become the Saint's enemy...
Then, Suzhen Palace could lose a true disciple.
This is the status of the Holy Lady Su Zhen, which is so lofty that it is almost abnormal.
However, the Suzhen Saint Ladies of all generations were not arrogant and domineering, and they would not do whatever they wanted in the Suzhen Palace just because of their status.
So, imperceptibly, everyone has no resistance to this phenomenon.
What can you resist? You can't change it, so you can only accept it.
"In fact, I have long admired the demeanor of Su Zhen disciple." Zhou Qing said with a smile: "If there is a chance, I would also like to see how big the gap is between me and the top Taoist geniuses. When the time comes, I will ask Su Zhen disciple to show mercy."
Zhou Qing behaved very modestly. Jiang Yanyao was so kind in someone else's territory, so it was impossible for him to directly say that he would beat ten people.
But he really wanted to have a fight with Su Zhen's disciples.
Since his debut, he seems to have never fought with the true disciples of the top Taoist sects, and has never had the chance to witness the style of the top geniuses.
This is also a regret, and now there is a chance to make up for it.
Moreover, as they are both top-notch sects, he will try fighting with Su Zhen’s disciples first. Then, when he arrives at Xuan Du Temple, he will be prepared for the strength of the disciples there.
When you go to Xuandu Temple, you will also have to compete, and it will be more intense. The competitors are no longer the same as before.
It is probably not so easy for Zhou Qing to cross the border and kill the enemy as easily as before. He needs to work harder.
As for directly challenging the number one genius in Suzhen...
This is meaningless because Zhou Qing just wants to see the quality of the top Taoist genius, not to be beaten.
In terms of martial arts, Jiang Yanyao must have been promoted to the Bone Refining Realm before the age of twenty.
Zhou Qing was not sure whether he had made the breakthrough at the age of nineteen, eighteen or even younger.
But one thing is certain, Jiang Yanyao’s current cultivation level is very high, even Zhou Qing cannot see through it, it is absolutely impossible that she is just in the initial stage of bone refining.
There is no need to talk about the faster soul cultivation in the early stage.
Su Zhen's number one prodigy jumped an entire realm to fight, wouldn't that be appropriate? So fighting with Jiang Yanyao...
He felt it would be better to fight with Yao Huanhuan.
With that kind of Su Zhen Zhen Chuan, he can beat ten of them, no, he can beat a hundred of them!
Fortunately, when the Mountain God tested everyone, he did not choose the method of direct fighting and sparring, otherwise Zhou Qing would not have been able to make the first charge.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Yanyao left. She had to go and practice with little girl Huanhuan.
Jiang Yanyao also told him about some places on the Holy Maiden Peak that he could not go to.
Zhou Qing left the palace and strolled in the mountains and forests. Soon, he heard footsteps behind him, and several girls came straight towards him.
There was curiosity and eagerness on his face, but no hostility.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing smiled slightly.
He is like a piece of gold, and the person who grinds gold has come.
