When Ning Que gently opened the old book by the bonfire, an aura slowly emerged from the yellowish paper. This aura was calm and serene, as if it did not belong to the human world. In a flash, it floated up to the sky, as if it was going to disperse into the winter clouds and never return to the page.
Because this aura was too calm and tranquil, it couldn't repel anything in the Winter Wilderness. However, it didn't fuse with anything, not even those soft cloud threads. This was not resistance or rejection, but rather, it maintained its silent nature and didn't even want to come into contact with it.
Without contact, there would naturally be no mutual effect. It was still the quiet winter clouds and the frost forest in the Wilderness. Even the cultivator with the most powerful Psyche Power in the world could not discover the aura emitted by this book.
However, the sky could. Because the blue or gray sky was a mirror, an omnipresent mirror that belonged to Haotian. Therefore, it could clearly reflect the appearance of the aura.
The low-hanging clouds in the winter sky were like old cotton mattresses that had absorbed enough water. After the "Ming" Handscroll of the Tomes of Arcane was opened, they quickly reacted. The thick clouds twisted and tore violently. Then, they entangled and swallowed each other. In the end, they separated from each other and turned into countless independent clouds.
Among the tens of thousands of clouds, the distant blue sky was revealed. It was because of this background that these clouds had a clear sense of suspension and became countless silent stones floating in the air.
Ning Que looked up at the cloud stones in the sky and thought of the hundreds of millions of jagged rocks in the Great Blockage Formation outside the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine. He seemed to understand and feel something in his heart. He sighed with emotion and remained silent.
…
…
Somewhere in the black Wilderness.
Ye Su was looking at the sky and observing the clouds. His hands were behind his back, as if he had already grasped the thin wooden sword. His head was raised high, as if he had already leaned against the thin wooden sword. His clothes were very thin, as if they would flutter with the cold wind in the Wilderness. The expression on his face was also very thin. It was a kind of thinness formed by a kind of self-deprecating indifference.
Another place in the black Wilderness.
Dunn was also looking up at the sky and observing the clouds. His hands were hanging by his side, tightly gripping them like two firm stones. His head was raised high, like a boulder on the edge of a cliff that was about to fall. His fur coat was very thick. No matter how the cold wind blew on the Wilderness, it did not leave a trace. The expression on his face was also very sincere. It was a kind of calmness formed from understanding the truth.
Another black wasteland.
Xia Hou gently lifted the reins and slowly raised his right hand, signaling the dark armored cavalry around him to stop. Then, he raised his head to look at the tens of thousands of clouds in the sky that looked like suspended rocks. He could not help but recall the mountain gate that he could see day and night many years ago. He thought of many things, and a few traces of pain flashed across his steely face.
At this moment, there were many people in the Wilderness. They did not have the ability to come into contact with the tranquil aura that leaked out from the Tomes of Arcane, but they could see the strange phenomenon in the sky. They could see the independent clusters of clouds that did not merge with the heaven and earth.
So they were shocked, and then silent.
The oracle of the Great Divine Priest of Revelation was true.
The "Ming" Handscroll of the Tomes of Arcane appeared in the Wilderness.
Regrettably, people could only look at the sky and observe the clouds to know that the Tomes of Arcane had appeared, but they did not know where in the Wilderness the Tomes of Arcane had appeared.
…
…
"Senior Brother, since the Tomes of Arcane are in your hands, why didn't you tell them before?"
"They didn't ask me, and … I really didn't want to tell them."
"That makes sense. You can't tell anyone except the people of the Academy."
"Yes, if I told them, they would definitely come to rob me. I don't want to fight with them. I've said that I'm not good at fighting. Xia Hou and the others are very strong. It's very hard to defeat them."
Ning Que noticed that Eldest Brother did not say it was very hard, but just hard. He could not help but laugh after being startled.
"Youngest Brother, what are you laughing at?"
"Nothing. I just think that Eldest Brother is really a wonderful person."
"Oh? What's so wonderful about it? "
"Everything is wonderful."
"Well, I don't really understand this sentence."
"Eldest Brother?"
"Youngest Brother?"
"How do we close this Tomes of Arcane? We can't always leave it open. The reaction of the sky is so strong. What if someone really finds the traces and chases after us? "
"There are usually three steps to close the Tomes. First …"
"Eldest Brother."
"Youngest Brother?"
"There's something strange about this Tomes of Arcane. I took a look at it and my sense of perception was so shocked that I want to vomit blood. That's why I want to close it. Now that I'm talking to you, I feel like vomiting blood even more. So can I trouble you to help me?"
"Oh, I see."
"Eldest Brother?"
"Youngest Brother?"
"Why don't you talk?"
"Didn't you ask me to help? When Jun Mo was young, he got angry easily when I talked to him. At that time, he was like you just now, saying that he wanted to vomit blood. The so-called help, of course, is to shut up. "
"I'm talking about the book … Of course, I'll remember the precautions when talking to you in the future."
"Oh, I see."
A hand reached out from the reddish firelight. It was Eldest Brother's hand. The cover of the old book was extremely heavy for Ning Que, and it was mixed with infinite pressure. Just a glance at it would make his sense of perception shake and break. However, it did not show any abnormality in Eldest Brother's hands, and it was closed with a gentle lift.
As the pages were closed, the tens of thousands of clouds in the sky gradually dispersed and merged with each other. They returned to the gloomy and continuous stretch of wet cotton wool, covering the whole Wilderness.
Those powerhouses in the Wilderness who sensed the celestial phenomenon and looked up at the clouds were silent for a long time. Then, with mixed emotions, they left silently.
It was almost dusk. A very faint red sunset shone through the clouds and shone on the cold forest in the Wilderness. The warm stream, which was like a young girl's hair, reflected countless golden threads. The Big Black Horse jumped like a clumsy monster sparrow by the stream. The beautiful young Talisman Master in a white coat chased after it. The color of the bonfire by the forest was getting darker and darker.
Eldest Brother put the leftover potato skin at his feet and asked slowly, "Did you find the Haoran Sword?"
Ning Que did not find the Haoran Sword that belonged to Youngest Uncle in the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine. But he knew what Eldest Brother really meant. So he nodded and said, "It's not the real sword, but I found it."
Eldest Brother looked very relieved and happy. He sighed and said, "That's good."
After a moment of silence, Ning Que asked very seriously, "Senior Brother, why did you choose me to inherit Youngest Uncle's mantle?"
The "Ming" Handscroll of the Tomes of Arcane had always been in the Academy. Of course, the Academy would not compete with other sects. It could only be for the mottled sword marks left by Youngest Uncle and the aura that wanted to return to the sect. Those sword marks and aura represented Youngest Uncle's spirit and mantle. They had been wandering outside because the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine was covered.
Decades later, the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine was opened according to the Heavens. It was at this time that the Empire and the Academy changed the plan for autumn practice and asked Ning Que to lead the team to the Wilderness. Now he naturally understood why.
However, there were so many Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters in the Back Mountain of the Academy. He had the lowest state and the least experience. He had never met the Headmaster of the Academy. Naturally, he was not the most favored one. So why did he inherit Youngest Uncle's mantle?
"Because this is your Lucky Chance, Youngest Brother."
Eldest Brother looked at him with a gentle expression. His clean eyes seemed to be able to see through Ning Que's heart.
Ning Que murmured and repeated, "Lucky Chance?"
"What is Lucky Chance? In Headmaster's words, it is those inexplicable but natural karma. However, Headmaster doesn't believe in Lucky Chance, but I do. In my opinion, Master Lotus, the Divine Hall for a thousand years, the Desolate Man's invasion of the south are all the same. Youngest Brother, you are the same. "
Eldest Brother said, "You wanted to enter the Academy, so you entered. His Majesty needed you to come to the Wilderness, so you came. You could feel Youngest Uncle's aura, so you went. When night came, the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine, which had been sealed for decades, opened. You were there, so you entered. There's no need to use logic to explain it, and it can't be explained. But it has its own cause and effect. So this is your Lucky Chance, not mine, not Jun Mo's or the other Junior Brothers and Sisters'."
Ning Que raised his head and looked at the vast Snow-capped Mountain in the distance. He thought about how he had left Chang 'an when he was young and grew up in the south of Min Mountain. Ten years later, he came to the north of Min Mountain. As the youngest disciple of the Academy, he inherited Youngest Uncle's mantle. It seemed that something had really played a role in this.
After an unknown period of time, he finally got rid of the inexplicable melancholy, and when he turned around, he met his Eldest Senior Brother's gaze that was as clean as pure water. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then he felt slightly sad.
When he mentioned the Front Gate of the Devil's Doctrine to Eldest Brother, he did not mention the most secretive part. This was the reason for his sadness. When he met Eldest Brother for the first time in the Academy last spring, he was afraid of Eldest Brother's cleanliness and the aura that made people unable to hide their sincerity. Now that he knew that Eldest Brother was his Eldest Brother and would definitely treat him well, he naturally did not fear him anymore. However, he felt more struggling and painful.
Should he tell Eldest Brother about joining the Devil?
It was almost night and the stars were already out. Darkness was about to cover the entire Wilderness. The bonfire by the frost forest looked brighter and brighter. As the winter wind blew, the flickering flames illuminated Ning Que's face.
Ning Que looked down at the bonfire in front of him. After a long silence, he finally made up his mind and said in a slightly tense voice, "Eldest Brother, did Youngest Uncle join the Devil? Was that why he was punished by Heaven? "
Eldest Brother looked at him quietly and said, "Yes."
Ning Que raised his head and asked, "Then I inherited Youngest Uncle's mantle …"
Eldest Brother said with a smile, "The Haoran Sword has the Great Spirit, and the Great Spirit has the Great Spirit. I have also learned the Haoran Sword."
Ning Que shook his head and said, "No."
Eldest Brother seemed to know what he was struggling about. He waved his hand to stop him and said with a smile, "Youngest Brother, if you really don't know how to face some things, then you can talk to the teacher about it in the future."

(At a certain resort, I'm quite lucky. While many authors can't go online, I can. I can hold on. I'll definitely not be disconnected tomorrow. It's just that I'm not good at writing. If my writing is a little rough, please forgive me.
Then, I strongly recommend Skeleton Fairy's new book, Templar. The book number is 2336338. I'm also very curious as to what kind of story this hot-blooded fellow will come up with in the Xianxia world.) (To be continued.) If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me.
