In front of the gate of the Taiqing Pavilion, only nine people reached the finish line this time. The rest were eliminated. Yi Tian's result was good this time. As expected, he was ranked seventh. This way, he wouldn't attract too many people's attention.
After a while, Elder Sha, who was in charge of the test and selection, hurriedly flew over and stopped in front of the gate. He said to everyone, "The nine of you now come up in order to exchange your identity jade cards."
Then the person in front of the line stepped forward. Elder Sha took off the jade bracelet on his hand. Then he took out an identity jade card and engraved the identity information on it. Then he dripped a drop of blood on it to confirm the identity.
The rest of the people followed suit and finished the process one by one. After ten breaths, Elder Sha said again, "New disciple, follow me to the main hall to participate in the disciple selection ceremony."
Yi Tian, however, inadvertently raised his eyebrows. This disciple selection ceremony was indeed a troublesome matter. Looking at the excited looks on the faces of the people around him, they were basically hoping to meet a powerful master and have a backer.
But he was very dissatisfied with this. If he worshipped another master, it would definitely be a big obstacle to his cultivation. But he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face. He dared to stand at the back of the line, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to find an excuse to avoid this matter.
With his cultivation, it wouldn't take long for him to advance to the Spirit Severing stage. Did he have to worship an old monster at the Body Integration stage as his master? Then maybe his secret would be exposed soon.
Not long after, a silver Fu Zhao fell from the sky and flew in front of the line of people. Elder Sha hurriedly stepped forward and took down the Fu Zhao. Then he looked at it with a little doubt on his face. Shaoqing turned his head and slowly walked to Yi Tian, "Brother Yi's cultivation has reached the middle stage of Spirit Severing stage, so you don't have to participate in the disciple selection ceremony. The sect master has arranged for you to be assigned to the West Mountain Spiritual Plant Garden. You can report there directly."
After that, he took out a map jade slip and handed it over, "You are new here and not familiar with the place. Go to the Ancestral Hall to report first. After registering on the register, you can report to the Spiritual Plant Garden."
Yi Tian was stunned when he heard this. It was obvious that this was the intention of the upper echelons of the sect. Although it was very beneficial to him, he didn't know why it was arranged this way.
After thinking about it, his face revealed neither joy nor anger. He directly stretched out his hand and took the map jade slip. Then, he replied, "In that case, Junior Brother will take his leave first. This time, I have troubled Senior Brother Sha."
Three breaths later, the group set off again, leaving Yi Tian alone in the same place. After everyone left, Yi Tian took out the map and quickly scanned it with his Divine Sense. He was able to clearly identify the markings on the map.
The blessed land of the Taiqing Pavilion was even larger than the Qingfeng City, and nearly seventy percent of it was classified as a forbidden area. That was the territory of Body Integration Stage cultivators and Grand Ascension Stage Patriarchs. As for the remaining 30% of the territory, it could be considered vast but sparsely populated. There were only two to three hundred people living in such a large territory. Moreover, most of the people gathered in the Spirit Mountain Paradise behind the main hall. Only a few people would choose to open up their cave in a remote area.
As for the Spirit Plant Garden that he was responsible for, it was even further away. It was located in the West Mountain of the sect. A radius of two hundred miles belonged to the scope of the Spirit Plant Garden, and there weren't many people opening up cave residences around here.
His gaze turned to the main hall of the Taiqing Pavilion and many other facilities. After looking around, he found that the sect's internal alchemy and weapons departments were all close to the two sides of the ancestral hall. Only the Qingtian Bureau was alone on Wuliang Mountain in the east.
He had long wanted to go there to pay a visit. After settling down, he would think of a way to find out the actual situation. He heard that there was an official Earth Fiend Ranking stone tablet at the foot of the mountain where the Qingtian Bureau was located. These places were quite interesting. He must be able to meet the cultivators of other sects who were guarding the ranking.
After thinking about it, his gaze swept across the ancestral hall. He directly found the closest path and flew straight there.
An hour later, when he arrived in front of the ancestral hall, he found that it was deserted. However, he didn't dare to be careless. The cultivators guarding the ancestral hall should be at least in the Spirit Severing stage. Perhaps one or two old monsters in the Body Integration stage would come.
Walking to the ancestral hall, Yi Tian cleared his throat and called out respectfully, "New disciple Yi Tian reporting to the ancestral hall."
After calling out like this three times, there was a faint echo. That voice seemed to be directly transmitted to his ear, "Martial Nephew Yi, come in."
Hearing this, Yi Tian directly walked into the hall. Looking around, there were a few rows of lamp racks. On them were the soul lamps. The names of the disciples were engraved on the lamp bases.
In the depths of the hall, there was a three-foot portrait on the wall. It was just that there were three people in the portrait.
He didn't recognize the other two, but he recognized the appearance of the person on the left at a glance. Wasn't that Li Fire Palace's Ancestral Master Wu Ye? Seeing this, his heart trembled. Could it be that this Taiqing Pavilion originally had something to do with the Li Fire Palace? It was just that his face didn't show any flaws. Even his eyes were completely hidden.
Under the portrait, there was a cultivator in a plain robe sitting cross-legged. He should be the elder of the ancestral hall.
Yi Tian hurriedly walked up and saluted, "Disciple was ordered to come and pay respects to the ancestral master. May I know how to address the elder?"
"This King is Qin Gehuai. Since Martial Nephew Yi is here, pay respects to the ancestral master first."
"It turns out to be Elder Qin. Disciple greets you." Yi Tian replied respectfully, "But I don't know if the portraits here are all the seniors of the Dacheng stage?"
Although these words were asked knowingly, Yi Tian also pretended to be confused.
Qin Gehuai smiled and replied, "It is indeed so. Stop talking nonsense, why don't you go up and pay respects?"
Yi Tian didn't dare to say more after hearing this. He walked forward directly and bowed to the three people in the portrait from left to right. After standing up, he saw Qin Gehuai had appeared behind him at some point. He took out a jade token and handed it over, "This is the token of the West Mountain Spiritual Plant Garden. You go there and cultivate well. Remember to hand over the required spiritual plants according to the requirements of the sect every hundred years. If you feel that there is not enough manpower, you can find a way to go to the Shangqing Daoism to find some attendant disciples. Go. "
Seeing that it was fine, Yi Tian didn't doubt it. After putting away the jade token, he hurriedly left.
After turning around and leaving, Qin Gehuai's eyes lit up. He took down the portraits of the three people in the ancestral hall, revealing the portrait of only one person behind. After doing this, he said, "Come out. Don't mention today's matter to anyone."
In an instant, an old man in his fifties walked in from the back of the ancestral hall. He respectfully said to Qin Gehuai, "Disciple obeys Martial Uncle Qin's orders."
Then Qin Gehuai's figure became blurry. Not long after, he disappeared from the ancestral hall.
A moment later, in front of the Qingling Cave in the Taiqing Pavilion, Qin Gehuai respectfully reported, "Reporting to Master, Yi Tian has been settled."
"Did he have any suspicions in the ancestral hall?"
"Disciple didn't talk too much with him." Qin Gehuai replied, "Just as Master expected, he did indeed pay respects to Martial Uncle Wu Ye first, then you and Martial Uncle Wu Yuan."
"As expected, the descendants of Martial Brother Wu Ye are all cunning. It is understandable that he did this. However, don't make this matter public. Did I tell you to erase all the information about him in the Qingtian Bureau? "
Qin Gehuai said solemnly, "Disciple has suppressed all the information about Martial Brother. Previously, I also gave him a nonexistent name, Cheng Qingyun."
"That's good. Wait a little longer. The next demon disaster will depend on him."
