Ning Zhuo heard the voice of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.

"You...you are the palace spirit of Lava Fairy Palace?" Ning Zhuo was surprised and asked immediately.

"Yes, yes, little master. You can call me Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit." The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit spoke in a low voice. This simple sentence made it take several breaths.

Ning Zhuo frowned and asked again: "What happened to you? Are you injured?"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit coaxed him, "Yes, little master. My condition is closely related to the Lava Palace. Now that the Lava Palace has been severely damaged, my condition has also become very bad."

"Especially some time ago, a wave of red-flame monsters formed and attacked the Immortal Palace. I had to let the Taoist master's mechanism participate in the fierce battle. This made my already bad condition even worse."

Ning Zhuo had no doubts.

While exploring the Fairy Palace, he had speculated on the state of the Palace Spirit and guessed that its situation was worrying.

At this moment, the weak voice of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit confirmed Ning Zhuo's guess.

Ning Zhuo said: "Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, you called me master. I just passed the test. Am I now the master of this Lava Fairy Palace?"

Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit couldn't help but roll his eyes in the main hall, took a deep breath, and pretended to be weak: "Just a little bit more, little master, you are almost successful."

"So, in fact, I am not the master of the Immortal Palace yet." Ning Zhuo said.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit took another breath. It knew that Ning Zhuo was not easy to deal with, so it was fully prepared mentally.

It explained: "I just can't wait any longer. My little master, do you know how long I have been waiting for a qualified successor?"

“My condition is getting worse and worse.”

"Young Master, please come quickly. If you pass the palace examination and defeat the other competitors, you can officially become the master of the Immortal Palace."

Ning Zhuo then asked, "What is the palace examination?"

Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit then explained: "According to the old master's rules, the palace examination is the highest standard of selection. Those who pass the selection and reach a certain standard will be given a corresponding position in the Lava Immortal Palace."

"Those monks who have mastered relevant positions can use the relevant facilities in the Lava Fairy Palace and obtain certain permissions, which will make it more efficient to win contributions from the Fairy Palace."

"Palace Examination..." Ning Zhuo's eyes lit up.

When he just checked the rewards for clearing the level, he still felt very disappointed that he had not found a way to become the Palace Master.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, he received active contact from Gong Ling.

"Then how do I take part in the palace examination?" Ning Zhuo continued to ask.

Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit: "In order to select the new Palace Master, the old master arranged two routes."

"The first is to enter the Immortal Palace, do many things for the Immortal Palace, and accumulate contributions."

"When contributions accumulate to a certain level, monks can obtain positions. There are many levels of positions, and monks need to be promoted continuously according to the levels. Only when they reach the fourth level or above can they be qualified for the palace examination."

“This route is more difficult.”

"The second one is to enter the Immortal Palace with your soul, which is relatively simple. The trial disciple only needs to open up one path among Buddhism, Taoism, and Demonism to be eligible to enter the palace examination."

Ning Zhuo listened attentively to the explanation of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit and began to understand a little.

To use an analogy that is not so appropriate.

A cultivator who enters the Immortal Palace is like a clerk serving as an official. He accumulates merits and information step by step, gets promoted step by step, and finally rises to the king's palace.

The cultivators whose souls entered the Immortal Palace were like those who entered the Imperial Academy and became disciples of the emperor. Once they finished their studies, they would be favored by the emperor and have the opportunity to ascend to heaven in one step.

Ning Zhuo had doubts in his heart and asked directly: "Almost all the cultivators who entered the Immortal Palace are outsiders and have not mastered the three sects' methods. Is it really appropriate to let them become palace masters?"

Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit: "This is a special arrangement by the old master."

"The old master treats all things in the world equally."

"In his heart, there is no distinction between near and far, close and distant."

"All he wanted to do was to leave behind the Three Great Dharmas and look forward to his successors carrying them forward."

"But the conditions are still a bit harsh, as we have to wait until the monks have made some progress in practicing the three sects' methods and one of them has passed the palace examination to become the city lord."

“Even if an outsider cultivator becomes a palace master, he is still subject to the constraints of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit and the Immortal Palace rules and cannot do whatever he wants.”

"Besides, there are always higher mountains. It is possible that the outsiders have mastered a technique that is better and more suitable than the three sects' techniques?"

"As expected of you, you are the Great Master of Three Sects." Ning Zhuo couldn't help but sigh after hearing the explanation from Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.

Ning Zhuo asked in detail: "Long Yuan Huo Ling, you are in charge of the entire Lava Fairy Palace. Can you tell me who my strong opponents will be in the upcoming palace examination?"

Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit: "Indeed, there are several."

"The strongest one is none other than Zhu Xuanji. He is a member of the Nandou royal family and has a token. He can be recognized by the Lava Immortal Palace based on his innate level."

"He had previously presented three Quasi-Golden Core-level mechanical puppets in succession, which instantly made a huge contribution."

"Now, he has found the lost Mechanical Demon General of the Immortal Palace. Once he turns it over, it will definitely be a huge contribution, enough for him to obtain the high position of the second rank."

Long Yuan Huo Ling went on to introduce the next five people.

They are Shu Zhongjun from Quanshu Building, Yang Chanyu from Bukong Sect, two Jindan disciples from Taiqing Palace and Zixiao Pavilion, and Meng Chong from the City Lord's Mansion.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit is more in favor of the strength of these people.

Among them, Meng Chong, who possesses immortal qualities, was ranked last.

"This is just the candidate that Xiao Ling is more optimistic about at the moment."

"After them, there is another group of monks with stamina. After developing for a period of time, they will also be able to participate in the palace examination."

In this regard, Long Yuan Huo Ling highlighted the cultivators that the Meng family had specially recruited at great expense in order to seize the Immortal Palace.

Ning Zhuo didn't expect to have so many competitors.

At the same time, Meng Chong is also one of the only two people who can participate in the palace examination in this route of soul entering the Immortal Palace.

Zhu Xuanji comes from the royal family of Nandou. From the very beginning when he appeared in Huoshi Fairy City, he has been the focus of attention!

The Quanshu Building is a super sect that is determined to accept all the skills and classics in the world. It is completely understandable that the Book Master responded to the call for talents and quietly participated.

Yang Chanyu... Ning Zhuo was deeply impressed by her.

Yang Chanyu came from Bukong Sect, whose disciples were always versatile. It was not surprising that Yang Chanyu had attainments in mechanical devices.

It is worth mentioning that the weapon she used to attack Luo Shang was a mechanical crossbow! There is no need to mention Meng Chong.

The other two golden elixirs are the true disciples of Taiqing Palace and Zixiao Pavilion. These two sects are super sects, similar to Bukong Sect and Soul-Devouring Sect.

Among them, Taiqing Palace has a small population but a very long history. Zixiao Pavilion is huge and is currently in its heyday.

Ning Zhuo: ""There are so many people competing for the city lord, why do you want to recognize me as the new lord? Why do you want to join me in advance?

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit smiled and said, "Young Master, I also made this decision not long ago."

"You are the first trial disciple to cultivate the three skills to the ninth level. Compared with those outsiders, you are of good origin!"

"Your spiritual roots and five elements are balanced, and your talent is outstanding."

"You have mastered the magical power of hanging people's lives, and you also have my Buddha Heart Demon Seal. This precious treasure is the lost seal of the Palace Master of Lava Fairy Palace."

"This is fate."

Ning Zhuo was not too surprised when he heard that the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit knew that he had mastered my Buddha Heart Demon Seal.

After all, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit is the palace spirit of the Lava Fairy Palace. He knows the secrets, so it is not surprising that he can sense my Buddha Heart Demon Seal.

Especially every time Ning Zhuo drew out the power of the treasure seal, it would flow in along the thread of life. From the perspective of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, this flaw was very huge. It was enough to judge that Ning Zhuo possessed the Buddha Heart Demon Seal! After communicating for a while, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit prevaricated Ning Zhuo with the reason that his condition had declined and he had to rest, and took the initiative to end the conversation.

It lay on the throne, feeling extremely tired.

It knows very well that Ning Zhuo is very smart and sharp, and has a rigorous mind. In this respect, Meng Chong can't even come close to him! Therefore, it is a difficult challenge for it to appease Ning Zhuo.

Judging from the current communication results, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was successful.

It has to do this.

After the recruitment order, its situation deteriorated.

Ning Zhuo, Zhu Xuanji, Shu Zhongjun and other cultivators appeared one after another and ventured into the Lava Fairy Palace. The pressure on the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit could be imagined.

It felt that it was alone and powerless, and was forced to come up with a plan to form alliances.

In specific implementation, it is to first gain the other party's trust, and then let the other party fight with the target person.

As long as these people confront each other, the pressure on the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit will be drastically reduced.

It is the one that is besieged, the one that is stormed.

The pressure on it is too great! Someone must share its pressure.

“It’s really hard for me.”

"So many people against me?!"

"How can I pursue my own freedom?"

The dragon turtle fire spirit daydreamed hundreds of years ago.

At that time, it was still a free fire-walking dragon.

Fire is the source of its power and magma is its paradise.

It travels in the magma and rushes around in the sky.

It acts violently and recklessly.

Until one day, a huge shadow covered it.

It looked up and saw an extremely huge palace with mechanical devices.

It roared.

As it rushed into the sky, ripples of flames spread through the air, and the hot breath made the surrounding magma boil even more.

A huge wave of fire burst out from the crater, which seemed to burn the entire world to ashes.

It is extremely confident in its own strength and never bothers to play any tricks!

It rushed forward.

It became the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.

For a long time, it was trapped in the huge cage of Lava Fairy Palace.

It spent countless thoughts and efforts to destroy the Lava Fairy Palace step by step.

But now, too many people have flocked here, frantically trying to earn contributions and repair the defects of the Lava Fairy Palace.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was forced into a desperate situation and could only resort to conspiracy and trickery and do things that it once disdained the most.

"Everything for freedom!" The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was furious.

"For freedom, I can do anything!"
