Chapter 357-2: True genius and false genius, Peacefully returning to the True Immortal Academy (2)
……
"Senior Black Robe, where is this?"
At this moment, in front of a misty mountain, two people stopped here. The person who spoke had beautiful facial features being tall and straight, giving people a feeling of sunshine and cheerfulness.
It was Jiang Chen and Hei Pao, who were far away from the territory of the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom, running all the way.
With the powerful cultivation of the black-robed old man, the two of them quickly traversed a distance of millions of miles, pa.s.sed through several teleportation formations in the middle, and finally left the range that the battle could reach.
The sight in front of him made Jiang Chen feel a kind of Immortal energy and indescribable dignity.
The atmosphere was peaceful with verdant trees, pavilions with flowing springs and waterfalls, flying cranes with roaring beasts.
"This is the Divine Ruins Sect. Within a radius of ten thousand miles, this force is the strongest. From today, you will practice in the Divine Ruins Sect. According to the inheritance I taught you, within one month, you will be able to become a cultivator of the Spiritual Sea Realm. If there is any accident during this time, you can crush the jade talisman, and I will show up to save you."
The black-robed old man pointed to a cyan boulder beside him and said, on which were written the simple and grand two characters "Divine Ruins".
Jiang Chen nodded, his expression a little solemn, "Okay, Senior."
During this period of time, he had become very clear about the power of the Demonic Art of Ten Thousand Transformations. Speaking of which, this was an extremely vicious cultivation inheritance, and it needed to devour other people"s cultivation.
But after accepting this inheritance, Jiang Chen was relieved.
In this world where the strong ate the weak, nothing was more important than strength, this was what the black-robed old man taught him.
Jiang Chen was not ignorant, after several days of struggle, he also wanted to understand, and with his modern thinking it was easier to accept all this.
In order to become stronger, what about mutilating the rest of the cultivators? In this world, being weak was a sin, and only the strong could survive.
"I hope you don"t disappoint the old man."
The black-robed old man nodded, and his figure quickly disappeared.
Then Jiang Chen took a deep breath and strode towards the Divine Ruins Sect Mountain Gate in front of him. From a distance, he saw two teenagers kneeling there, seeming to be begging for mercy.
"Let"s go, your apt.i.tude is too ordinary, even if you work hard." An old man in front of the mountain gate shook his head slightly.
"Immortal Master, please give us another chance." The two teenagers kneeling there were very stubborn, unable to kneel for a long time, and kept kowtowing.
The old man sighed and said, "You guys have been kneeling for half a month, and I"m not a ruthless person, but rules are rules, your apt.i.tude is really too mediocre, you really can"t pa.s.s the test, so hurry down the mountain and leave."
The two teenagers were incomparably desperate, and the words had come to this point, and they also understood that even if they knelt down again, there would be no hope.
The Divine Ruins sect was the best cultivation sect within a radius of ten thousand miles. It was said that it was attached to the Divine Ruins Dao sect, and the Divine Ruins Dao Sect was an affiliated force of the Hidden Ji family.
As long as they could worship at the Divine Ruins Dao Sect, from now on, even if they were just a handyman disciple, it would be enough for them to be prosperous for a lifetime.
But when he heard this, Jiang Chen"s expression was calm as ge quickly walked over. He didn"t have any sympathy for these two teenagers.
"Daoist brother, wait!" Among the puzzled eyes of several people, Jiang Chen was the first to speak.
"You are…" The old man was about to turn around and leave when he heard the words, he frowned and looked him up and down, a little puzzled.
"Daoist brother, I"m here to be an apprentice." Jiang Chen opened his mouth and said, very confident in his cultivation talent.
"You are too old, even if you have roots, it is not in line with the rules. Our Divine Ruins Sect only accepts disciples under the age of eighteen."
Old Daoist"s voice was gentle, he didn"t drive Jiang Chen down the mountain because of his age, but persuaded him instead.
"You are over eighteen years old, and you still want to become an apprentice? Didn"t you see the rules of Divine Ruins Sect?"
The two teenagers carefully looked at Jiang Chen"s clothes and found that he was wearing very tattered clothes. He didn"t look like he came from a big family at all, and their expressions suddenly became very contemptuous.
The mortals who could cultivate in this world either had a powerful background or were rich.
A ragged and beggar-like person like Jiang Chen, even if he was talented, he did not have the money to buy many cultivation resources.
"Daoist brother, I believe that my qualifications will help make Divine Ruins Sect an exception."
Jiang Chen didn"t care about the sarcasm of the two teenagers, smiled, and said confidently.
"Make an exception and take a test? It"s just ridiculous."
As soon as they heard this, the two teenagers immediately laughed, their words were all contempt and sarcasm towards Jiang Chen, "A beggar is still trying to cultivate, and if he says something that will make Divine Ruins Sect make an exception? You want to make us laugh to death?"
Although Jiang Chen didn"t want to get to know them in general, at this time, being so despised by others, he still felt very unhappy in his heart.
However, his energy-raising skills were still very good, and he still maintained a calm and confident expression on his face.
He believed that with the eyes of this old man in front of him, he should be able to see his extraordinary physique and bones.
"If you really want to be an apprentice, you should know the rules of my Divine Ruins Sect before doing this. If you"re here to make trouble, don"t blame me for being rude…"
However, what surprised Jiang Chen was that when the old Daoist in front of him heard these words, he suddenly changed his gentle expression and became a little sullen.
The old man felt that Jiang Chen was here to play tricks on him. If he was very confident in his cultivation talent, wouldn"t it be bad to join other Great Sects?
Why did he rush to Divine Ruins Sect?
"Daoist brother, listen to my explanation. I really came here to become an apprentice with sincerity, but because of the long distance and long journey, I encountered many beasts on the road, escaped from death, and many servants lost their voices, so I was the only one left. It was difficult to survive, and I could only eat wild fruits along the way until I arrived here…"
Jiang Chen hurriedly explained and began to tell how dangerous and miserable his journey was, and he was almost dumbfounded when he heard the two young men mocking him just now.
Hearing this, although the old man"s face was a little unbelievable, it also eased a lot.
Still, he insisted,
"Rules are rules. You are already older than the best time to cultivate, so please come back. Since the establishment of the Divine Ruins Sect, I have never accepted a disciple over eighteen years old…"
Jiang Chen"s brows furrowed, he didn"t expect him to say so, this old man still didn"t want to let him test his apt.i.tude.
Could it be that at this time, he could only crush the jade talisman and seek the help of the black-robed old man?
But if he couldn"t even solve this kind of thing, wouldn"t it seem that he was too incompetent and useless?
"Puff!"
"Just give him a chance."
However, at this time, a burst of crisp and pleasant laughter suddenly sounded from the mountain gate, as if immortal fruit fell on the jade plate, like the sound of heaven.
Hearing this voice, Jiang Chen was shocked and immediately looked over.
He saw a young girl appearing near the mountain gate, standing on a white jade step, her hair was soft and without any decoration as if it had a sparkling l.u.s.ter.
The girl was wearing a long goose-yellow dress, tall and slender, with a feeling of being out of the dust like a mountain elf.
Her face looked very ordinary and not surprising, but the eyes were very large, clear and divine, as bright and moving as the moon.
Seeing this person, the old man in front of the mountain changed his face, was very respectful, and hurriedly saluted, "Greetings, Young Lady."
The girl nodded slightly, her eyes fell on Jiang Chen, and she pursed her lips and smiled, "That beggar, why don"t you come in quickly?"
Jiang Chen was a little stunned, but at this moment, the spirit of the Immortal Boat’s words sounded in his mind.
"Xiao Chen, this girl"s ident.i.ty will not be simple, you have to be careful."
"I"m not a beggar, my name is Jiang Chen."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen quickly reacted, smiled at the old man at the door, and then immediately strode towards it.
Although the old man looked puzzled, he didn"t dare to ask any more questions.
"Xian Shi, who is that girl?"
The two teenagers were also stunned for a while, but they didn"t expect the beggar who was mocked by them just now changed his fate and entered the Divine Ruins Sect. They were instantly envious and jealous.
"Miss… how can you inquire about her?"
Hearing this, the old-fashioned Daoist who had a very gentle face suddenly changed his previous appearance and became very cold, and asked.
The two teenagers were startled, and they didn"t dare to stay for a long time. With envy and jealousy towards Jiang Chen in their hearts, they got up and climbed down the mountain and left.
