Chapter 34 Chapter 34 Damn, I want the same one
Bai Lu was still thinking about how to say it to Huo Xuexiang. His sudden action really caught Bai Lu off guard. What else could she say now?
Huo Xuexiang and Boluan Xianjun both went offline. Bai Lu immediately interrogated Ning Yanhu, staring at him eagerly: "Big Sister, what did the Sect Master say to you? Does my master have any doubts about the broom?"
He felt that there was something wrong with this communication and wanted to find out. Could it be that his master had been frightened by a broom monster like Xian'er when he was a child? Didn't his master ask this question once when Xian'er came to Xuanshan before?
"I was just wondering what your relationship is. I can't talk to my uncle." Ning Yanhu was even more confused than him. He stared at him eagerly, "Tell me, have you ever heard of a broom being used as a magic weapon?"
Bai Lu: “…”
He was a little panicked...
Well, there is indeed a broom as a magic tool.
Fortunately, the eldest sister still rested her chin on her hand and muttered to herself, "But now I also doubt whether there is any previous experience..."
Who is the monk riding a broom in Liuxian Gorge?
Bai Lu was so annoyed that she ate another piece of melon. No, she had to find a chance to find out more... He was really wronged. What's wrong with him riding a broom? Why do you also hunt witches in this world?
Just wait and find an opportunity to introduce your broom to your mentors and change their stereotypes.
"Don't eat it yet." Ning Yanhu didn't even know when he took out the melon, "Those junior brothers and sisters who went back early, they had signed up, but now they are vacant, and there is no time to call people over.
"Because I signed up under the name of Xuanshan, Yujing Palace said that it was okay to change someone else. I just asked Master if he wanted to take you guys in for the first round to see the excitement and experience it in advance."
"Eh, is it okay?" Bai Lu wasn't particularly interested in fighting, but he knew that Liang Mangu really wanted to see it, and had always said that he would definitely join in after he was upgraded a hundred years later.
“Naturally, the Red Dust Trial has allocated quotas for big sects like us. In fact, there are also independent cultivators who sign up at the Foundation Establishment stage, although basically none of them can pass the first level.” Ning Yanhu said.
"If you can't handle the first level, you can crush the token given by Yujing Palace to end the trial. It's not shameful to be in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Moreover, Master also said that with those...unique magical instruments and formations of yours, you might be able to pass the first level and set a record for our Xuanshan. Well, you have to sell those things anyway, and everyone will know sooner or later, so you might as well get some ranking."
Bai Lu: “…”
My Chinese is not good to begin with, and now I can’t tell whether it’s a curse or a compliment…
Bai Lu originally came to the market, and they wanted to set up a stall to sell some things, but Bai Lu wanted to stand together with her classmates, so she said, "I... I'll watch them!"
…
“Oh my god!!!”
Liang Mangu laughed wildly. Although he said that we were not good enough in the foundation building stage, he had secretly dreamed about it before he set out. For example, if Senior Brother Pei Zhaoting had an accident during training outside, leaving a vacancy, he would have to play, and then...
Ahem, I didn't mean to curse you, but now it has come true.
“Wow, we are only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, will we be bullied if we go in?”
"That's unlikely. We are from Xuanshan, and we have more people. We should be the only ones who can bully others by taking advantage of our power."
"Stop talking nonsense. When have Xuanshan disciples ever bullied others by taking advantage of their power?"
"Then we can start with us."
Ning Yanhu said with a dark face: "Why don't you just not go in."
"No, no," Liang Mangu hugged the corner of the eldest sister's clothes and said flatteringly, "We will definitely compete seriously and show the heroic spirit of Xuanshan disciples."
So does our stall setting have to be delayed, or is it that... Bai Lu is distracted.
"Brother Bai, you must also participate! You said you would speak up for the Foundation Establishment Stage!" Liang Mangu grabbed Bai Lu's hand again. Bai Lu was one of the best fighters among them. They were all in one place for the first level, and if everyone cooperated sincerely, wouldn't it be wonderful if they could really hold on to the end.
Bai Lu patted Liang Man Gu: "Okay, I'm just thinking about how to do our business."
.
According to Bai Lu's understanding, the selection of the Red Dust Trial was roughly divided into three stages: the audition, the points competition, and the finals. The competition would be held in the artificial secret realm formed by the gathering of energy in Yujing Palace. It was not held in a real venue because they were afraid of harming the external natural environment, and the Wood Clan of Huanhuazhou would protest.
In the first stage of the audition, many registered contestants will be placed in the same secret realm, and can only carry a certain amount of magical instruments, talismans, elixirs and other external objects, which must be homemade. It is said that when the rules were not so strict before, some Foundation Establishment cultivators went in and survived to the end by dodging and using a large number of elixirs prepared in advance. Only then was the rule changed.
Those who have not been defeated by the strange beasts in the secret realm, or who have not been teleported out of the realm by crushing the jade token within seven days, will be considered to have passed the first level.
These beasts are all species that are aggressive and can cause harm everywhere. In this stage, they often gather in groups based on the sect. Even independent cultivators will gather together, because the beasts will also gather together. The beasts released will become stronger and more numerous. When everyone is together, it will save some energy at the beginning and last longer.
Even for a sect like Xuanshan Immortal Sect, perhaps only one-third of the representative teams would survive to the end.
Ning Yanhu suggested bringing the crazy people from the logistics team, and the other brothers and sisters agreed unanimously. After all, the quota was vacant anyway, so why not bring them in to add some "fun". In the past days, the people of Xuanshan had had enough fun anyway...
Pei Zhaoting, who had gone out early, had also arrived. He learned that some of his fellow disciples had been replaced as the new batch of disciples to go in and experience the experience together. With his arrogance, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.
Even if he was not well-informed, he knew the reputation of this batch of junior brothers and sisters, and even had Ding Douhua secretly learn about the formation.
When all contestants have arrived, the Red Dust Trial is officially declared to begin.
Bai Lu was present with the team. He was still wearing Xuanshan blue shirt. However, when he came to Huanhua Island, he inevitably decorated himself with local characteristics. In addition to the flower ring given by the red willow man, the velvet flower brooch on his chest also became a floral element. He wore a flower bell headband on his head, and the kite was still swaying in the wind. It was so complicated that people could see at a glance that the Snow Feather Sword was worn on his body, and it also felt like a decoration rather than a magic weapon.
Others looked at the Xuanshan team, and many people speculated which one was the legendary Sword Master disciple who also came. These days, there has been a rumor that the Sword Master disciple has also come, but it is not known whether this news is true or not, and Ning Yanhu always keeps silent about it.
These suspicious glances swept over the high-level disciples, and when they fell on Bai Lu, they were mostly attracted by her appearance and decorations. Most people would not guess at first glance that this was the Sword Master disciple who always wielded only one sword.
The Yujing Palace held a formal ceremony, and even invited Xifeng Xianjun, who was at the third level of no-power, to give a speech, which made the audience very excited.
This was the first time Bai Lu saw the legendary Three-Undying Ancestor. He looked like a stone or a flower, blending into the environment. Although inconspicuous at first glance, he was actually very radiant.
Those who have reached the Three-Nothing Realm usually practice in seclusion and rarely come out to see others.
"It is said that there are three "no's": no surrender, no ignorance and no return. So what exactly does this teacher "no"?" Bai Lu asked curiously, and the person she asked was naturally Liang Mangu, who had a good memory.
"I don't know about that. Perhaps only the people in Yujing Palace know." Liang Mangu shrugged. "The so-called not submitting to fate, not being ignorant of one's nature, and not returning to the mortal world, in fact, the three realms are called together because they are all difficult to explain clearly, unlike the previous realms that have theories from predecessors.
"There is even a saying that after entering the Three No Realms, it is possible to go from the No Submission Realm to the No Return Realm in one day, or it is possible to suddenly fall out of the Three No Realms before ascending. Only very few people can truly ascend to become immortals and never return. Anyway, it can be summed up in two words: Immortal Fate."
Abstract again...
Bai Lu got a headache after hearing this. What's the difference between saying it and not saying it?
Xifeng Xianjun was giving a speech, and many people below couldn't help but stretch their necks, wishing that Xifeng Xianjun could look up at their heads to see the Qi. Xifeng Xianjun was also a legendary figure. He had traveled across the twelve continents with his two whips, and he also promoted the Qi-observing technique of Yujing Palace and made many accurate predictions.
However, he had not appeared in public for hundreds of years since he entered the Three No Realms. Now that he had emerged from his seclusion, all the cultivators, whether participating in the competition or watching the competition, could not help but puff out their chests.
——Just kidding, who hasn’t dreamed of being looked at by the Immortal Lord Xifeng and then being declared “this boy has the bones of an immortal”?
Unfortunately, Xifeng Xianjun didn't look at anyone, he just opened the secret realm and said, "Gentlemen, please."
That’s not bad, Lord Xifeng, please open the curtain for us!
Rays of light were like a meteor shower in the daytime, all falling into the vortex-like entrance to the secret realm.
The Xuanshan team mixed in and entered, leaving only Luo Luoniao and an uncle-master behind to guard the camp.
When they first set out, everyone is relatively close to each other and chooses their own path. Most people will choose a well-defended terrain to set up camp.
There was a familiar sect standing relatively close, looked over at Xuanshan, and spoke to Ning Yanhu: "If you, Xuanshan, can't choose disciples, you can send fewer people. Why did you even bring in Foundation Establishment Realm people?"
Ning Yanhu glanced and saw that the person who was speaking was an old acquaintance of Xuanshan, a disciple of the Qingtian Sword Sect, another one who had been beaten by Uncle Huo before... He had been in the same field with Uncle Huo before, and now he was in the same field with their generation.
The other party's eyes were still wandering over several disciples around Ning Yanhu, trying to find out which disciple of the Sword Master was it. There were two or three people equipped with swords, the lowest being at the Xuanguan Realm and the highest being at the Tinglei Realm. They all looked like they were very tenacious in their cultivation of the mind. Which one of them was it?
Ning Yanhu said bluntly: "You should think about how to hold on to the end. Even if there is no Sword Master this time, we still have us."
…
The monks from Yujing Palace brought in the flower mirrors that were a specialty of their palace. Unlike the manual water mirrors used in Xuanshan’s surveillance cameras, the Yujing Palace’s was a plant mirror.
The flower mirror was specially cultivated using fairy magic. After the petals opened, one could cast a spell to see the scene in the secret realm - as long as there were plants in that place.
Since the world is connected, it is not surprising that plants and trees have special ways of communicating.
This flower mirror is placed in a pot at a distance. It is huge in size, like a round screen, and it is high-definition.
However, there are so many contestants, and it is impossible to broadcast to everyone, so they are all moving around. The monks of Yujing Palace will manually control it and broadcast wherever is more lively.
Luo Luoniao was also outside, and he had taken a magical instrument for taking pictures. He also had a mission, which was to record some outstanding contestants. Liang Mangu also asked him to record their heroic performances as a souvenir.
Xuanshan Immortal Sect is one of the teams that attracts the most attention from the audience.
In the real-time footage, most groups work together to kill the strange beasts that appear one after another in the secret realm.
At the beginning of the competition, the disciples of Xuanshan were at ease. They only needed one disciple to go into battle to resolve the crisis. To them, the attack from strange beasts on the first day was nothing.
Pei Zhaoting held up the formation plate and released a raging fire, killing a fish monster that jumped out of the pond.
On the other side, a few of the Xuanshan disciples acted differently from everyone else. When they saw Pei Zhaoting kill a fish monster, they quickly went up and dragged the fish body over, whispering, "This piece was burnt by Senior Brother Pei. What a pity..."
Ding Douhua has already set up the barbecue grill and lit the fire.
Bai Lu took out the alchemy furnace and kneaded the dough.
Finally, under the watch of countless cultivators from the Red Dust Trial, several Xuanshan disciples grilled fish with bread and ate and drank heartily. There was also a cloud floating overhead, blocking the sunlight.
"?"
"...Wait, I see, those disciples who cook seem to be only at the Foundation Establishment stage, food cultivators?"
"How could there be food cultivators in a place like this? Did Xuanshan Immortal Sect bring them in to play?"
"They don't fast? They eat so deliciously, am I here to see you eat?"
"I'm convinced. I'm jealous of you..."
These people ate and drank so much that they really didn't look like they were here to explore a secret place. Pei Zhaoting, Ning Yanhu and others from the same team beside them seemed to be in two different styles even though they were in the same place.
Xuanshan's die-hard supporters couldn't help but say, "How could Xuanshan's disciples be like this? Did they really go in to have fun? It's not easy to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage. They are relying on the support of their senior brothers and sisters, otherwise they would have been torn apart by spirit beasts long ago. They really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!"
Some people were dissatisfied with these low-level cultivators who ate and drank so easily, and felt that they were relying on the strength of the sect to be idle. They were not as good as those foundation-building cultivators who relied on elixirs to survive to the end. At least they survived very seriously.
It was also at this time that vines were seen swaying in the dense forest in the real-time picture.
At first glance, I thought it was the wind that moved it, but upon closer inspection, I saw that the vines were actually alive and were moving towards the Xuanshan juniors from behind. Their eldest sister was enjoying the cool air nearby and seemed to be unaware of it.
"Hmm?" Bai Lu had just collected some nice-smelling herbs in the secret realm and put them away. He was chopping some bamboo and branches to make something. He turned his head and asked, "Did you charge Shen Yuntian?"
"I have charged it." Ding Douhua said vaguely while crunching the bread, otherwise how could she eat and drink with peace of mind.
Oh. That's good.
I saw the vines sneaking silently behind me and suddenly revealing their true form. This was not a vine at all, but a giant python whose skin could change color and become invisible.
The giant python's body stretched three or four times its size, flying wildly in the air and rolling towards the few people!
"Shen Yuntian" above his head was immediately triggered, and shot out densely packed arrows, nailing the giant python to the ground from one inch to seven inches!
The speed and power are amazing. What a great automatically triggered magic weapon.
A fish that had escaped the net jumped over from the other side. Ding Douhua's array plate lit up, and the movement was so small that it was almost undetectable. The entire giant python disappeared...
"Where did it go?"
"It shouldn't be possible to transmit it back to Xuanshan from such a distance, right?"
Ding Douhua said with a grin, "It was passed on to the team of the Sky-clearing Sword Sect. They secretly set it up at the entrance."
"oh--"
Everyone gave Ding Douhua a warm round of applause, saying that this junior sister is truly a person of character!
Then everyone dragged the giant python over with a smile, smelled it, and said, "Hmm, it looks like it can be used to make snake soup. Go wash it."
Overseas audience: “…………”
No, now I admit that you, the foundation-building monks, have something going for you...but is there something wrong with you?
What’s even more wrong is yet to come.
These Xuanshan disciples just left the team like that.
…
Wu Ding Hai's disciples fought hard with the monsters and defeated a group of cloud lizards before they sat down to rest.
A disciple on the periphery was drinking tea to replenish his spiritual power. Suddenly, he heard a tinkling bell and almost jumped up in fright. He looked to the side and saw five green-robed cultivators emerge from the bushes, pushing a bamboo and wood cart with many odds and ends hanging on it, such as pens, talismans, array plates, and a cloud on top, decorated with some flowers and plants. In addition, there was a whole row of food and daily necessities... It felt like they could set up a stall right away. No, maybe this was setting up a stall?
Because when these people met him, they would ask him, "Daoist friend, would you like to buy something?"
The disciple was in a trance.
He is in the secret realm of the Red Dust Trial, not in the market outside, right?
The other disciples of Wu Ding Hai also noticed the movement here, and stood up and asked vigilantly: "Who is it?"
——Although the first stage of the first level involves fighting monsters, there are only so many places to qualify, so you must be on guard.
"We are disciples of Xuanshan, you are from Wudinghai, right?"
The Xuanshan signboard is still very useful. Sure enough, after the people on the opposite side looked at them carefully and confirmed that they were wearing Xuanshan clothes, their expressions relaxed a lot.
"I noticed you were nearby, so I came to say hello to you fellow Taoist." It was hard to feel bad for Bai Lu when he smiled. There were two flower bells hanging on his head, which was quite cute, although it didn't quite fit in with the atmosphere of bloody struggle here.
"Well, hello." Wu Dinghai's Jin Sunzhi looked at them suspiciously, not knowing what these foundation-building disciples Xuanshan brought were doing. Would Ning Yanhu send his junior brothers and sisters to be cannon fodder? There were only a few popular contestants, and Jin Sunzhi was well-known, so it was no wonder he was worried.
However, Jin Sunzhi's worries were misplaced.
What do these people want to do? Of course, they want to set up stalls!
Bai Lu thought about it and realized that they really couldn't set up a stall outside, but then she thought, isn't this the biggest sales booth in Hongchen Trial? Setting up a stall outside is not much different from setting up a stall inside.
Immortal cultivators cannot be defeated by the environment! I want trials, and I want to set up stalls!
Although the magic tools that can be brought in are limited, they can implement an order system. And magic tools and talismans can only be brought in a limited number, but things that do not contain spiritual power can be brought in at will...
Bai Lu said innocently, "Fellow Daoist, we have some magical instruments produced by Xuanshan here. They are very useful. Just now, several of us foundation-building disciples killed a giant python with these instruments! If you want to see, we can also handle the beast tide later as a display. Here is the pre-order form. Fill it out if you want. We also accept special orders."
Ding Douhua and Meng Caiqing gestured and drew to show off their magic tools as he introduced them, and even gestured to the plants broadcasting around them...
Jin Sunzhi and his fellow apprentices: "?"
The monks watching outside: "..."
"There are some cultural and creative products here that you can buy right away. They don't contain spiritual power, but you can buy them right away. You guys are tired from fighting, so buy some to change your mood."
Bai Lu continued to show them other products on the car, which were also developed by him and his fellow junior students. He was the overall designer, while others were responsible for creativity and technical support.
Every time the Red Dust Trial Market is held, it is mainly for practical purposes. Everyone takes the opportunity to sell their own magic weapons, materials, etc. Many interesting magic weapons will be produced here. In addition to magic weapons, they have also found another way to make souvenirs. No spiritual power, but really beautiful.
In addition to the commonly used stationery, bookmarks, notebooks, rulers, etc., these cultural and creative peripherals also include brooches, pendants, ornaments, etc. The patterns on them are creatively designed with the theme of Red Dust Test, and some also contain elements of Huanhuazhou and major sects (this can also be customized according to the sect). For friends of the demon clan, there are also peripherals of the Ancient Five Emperors series.
According to Bai Lu's demonstration, the pendants can be placed on the shoulders or buckled in front of the chest. These ornaments even come in extra-small and extra-large versions. They were originally intended to be sold to the indigenous Mu tribe in Huanhuazhou, who have special body shapes.
But when Bai Lu wore the super small version and the super large version, it was actually quite interesting, and one might even think that his little kite was also specially made in a mini version.
Not only are they useful, but there are also edibles, such as cultural and creative desserts, ice cream and small cakes in the shape of Yujing Palace made with fruits and vegetables that are special to Huanhuazhou.
After all, the ultimate goal at the beginning was to set up a stall, and the products are really rich.
"We also have blind boxes. You get one hundred spirit stones for each blind box draw." Bai Lu leaned on the cart, the kite was flying and the flower bells were swinging.
Why is there gambling involved?
Wu Dinghai's disciples were all stunned:... What on earth are these people doing here? !
Jin Sunzhi felt that all his doubts were like a punch on cotton and fell into vain.
Moreover, Bai Lu's facial features were beautiful and charming, and her green shirt also looked gorgeous. She had a headband on her head, and on that headband hung two bell-shaped flowers with silk threads, which made crisp sounds in the wind, just like wind chimes.
He was probably also an artifact cultivator, which was why he had so many artifacts. Every time he picked up an object, no matter what it was, it seemed to fit right into his body, matching perfectly and instantly attracting attention.
Not to mention how the Wu Ding Hai disciples at the scene doubted their lives, some of the onlookers watching the real-time video had already erupted with similar voices: "Damn it! I want the same one as his!"
