GBP Chapter 288 Dream 3
Chapter 288 Dream 3
Yun Ci entered the Xuanyuan Sect, gazing at its magnificent buildings, the senior disciples walking by in their sect robes, the chirping spirit birds flying overhead, the wide road that could accommodate ten carriages side by side, and the towering stone beasts on either side...
Her mouth opened into an "O" shape, and her eyes immediately sparkled.
Wow, this is huge! This must be where the gods live...
Yun Ci walked forward, turning her head left and right to look around.
As new disciples arriving for the first time, everyone was very curious about everything.
Praises and gasps of astonishment rang out all around.
"This is the first time I've ever seen such a big house..."
"Me too... My thatched house is crammed with seven people. This house could easily house thirty, no, fifty people."
"It was a boy dressed in tattered clothes," he said.
Yun Ci, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement.
Such a big house can definitely house a lot of people!
A young man dressed in fine clothes standing nearby immediately curled his lip in disdain.
A bunch of country bumpkins who've never seen the world.
However, looking at the magnificent building, a look of shock also flashed in the eyes of the young man in fine clothes.
"My goodness, I've seen these rare spiritual plants by the roadside in books, but I never expected to see them everywhere in the Xuanyuan Sect..."
"Look! Those are senior brothers from the sect. Their clothes are so beautiful, like immortals from a storybook..."
The new disciple said excitedly.
Several senior students who were passing by heard their words and looked at their youthful faces, and were filled with emotion.
They looked just like this when they first came to the sect to become disciples.
Now that the junior brothers have arrived, they have junior brothers to run errands for them and to be bossed around, hehe.
Yun Ci and the others followed the directions to the place where their spiritual roots were tested.
*
Outside, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, but inside, the world turned orange, and countless stones floated in the air without falling.
Ten towering pillars of different colors and patterns surround the central platform.
The tabletop is marked with the attributes "metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice..." in different directions.
Countless words and patterns surround a central area.
The pillar directly opposite the countertop, though without any pattern, is larger than the others and bears the three large characters "Testing Stone".
When Yun Ci entered, he saw that the people in front of him were having their spiritual roots tested, so he also went to the back of the line to wait for his spiritual roots to be tested.
"Low-grade metal spiritual root, low-grade water spiritual root, dual spiritual roots, half a pillar of light."
The senior uncle who was testing spiritual roots said this, and a disciple from the Discipline Hall took out a pen and wrote it down.
The person in front of him looked deeply shocked as he stepped off the stage.
The people behind them went up with trepidation.
"Low-grade wood spirit root, low-grade water spirit root, low-grade fire spirit root, three spirit roots, no pillar lights up."
The second person closed their eyes and immediately fainted.
The senior apprentice, who was testing his mental strength, couldn't help but shake his head.
This batch of students isn't very talented...
So far, not a single disciple with a superior-grade spiritual root has appeared; there is only one disciple with a mid-grade spiritual root...
Hey......
Those behind them became even more uneasy upon seeing this.
Yun Ci couldn't help but feel nervous.
Looking at the sky, hands clasped together, eyes sincere,
"May my ancestors and the Heavenly Dao protect me from being driven out. I can temporarily give up the large cave dwelling; a small one will do too. I'm not greedy..."
He heard that joining the Xuanyuan Sect would bring him a lot of money, and he didn't want to be kicked out.
The people around them, "..."
A sudden commotion arose in the crowd.
Yun Ci looked over in confusion.
The moment the man in white appeared, the entire world paled in comparison.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the person who looked as beautiful as a "god."
They had never seen anyone so beautiful; this person must be a deity...
Yun Ci was also stunned, her round eyes staring blankly at the man without blinking.
This person is so handsome, even more handsome than the officials' brothers he'd ever seen...
Suddenly, Immortal Venerable Jiqing looked over.
His eyes were as indifferent as a calm lake, as if nothing in this world could stir his heart that had been silent for thousands of years.
Yun Ci blinked and gave him a friendly smile.
The little boy was dressed in tattered clothes, carrying a basket woven from branches on his back. His bright and lovely face made his clothes look even brighter.
Even tattered clothes cannot conceal her bright and radiant beauty.
The Immortal Venerable Jiqing looked at that lovely smiling face and met those bright and clear eyes.
The quiet boy's heart suddenly skipped a beat, but his face remained calm and composed.
It's definitely endearing.
At this moment, the uncle who was testing spiritual roots came over. "Immortal Venerable, is there anything you need me to do?"
The Immortal Venerable has actually come here... Could it be that the Immortal Venerable wants to take on a disciple this year?
"Come and take a look. You can continue with your work and don't worry about me," the man said.
"Ok."
The senior uncle who was testing the spiritual roots quickly had a chair brought over and then continued testing the spiritual roots.
However, with Immortal Venerable Jiqing sitting beside him, the uncle who was testing his spiritual roots was somewhat nervous and restrained.
Looking at the man sitting there, everyone guessed which senior uncle from the sect he was.
The young men were invigorated, hoping to become disciples of this ethereal man.
Yun Ci received no response and did not care. He looked away and continued to wait for the spiritual root test.
One by one, people stepped onto the stage to have their spiritual roots tested.
Countless words and patterns are spinning at high speed.
"Inferior spiritual root, five spiritual roots, no pillar of light."
"Low-grade metal spiritual root, low-grade fire spiritual root, middle-grade wood spiritual root, three spiritual roots, one pillar shines."
"Mid-grade metal spiritual root, mid-grade earth spiritual root, three pillars shining brightly."
The uncle who was testing the spiritual root looked at the young man on the platform and wiped away his cold sweat.
Finally, we have a disciple with talent for cultivation.
"Low-grade wood spirit root, low-grade earth spirit root, dual spirit roots, half a pillar of light."
"Mid-grade metal spiritual root, low-grade fire spiritual root, low-grade earth spiritual root, three spiritual roots, two pillars shining."
"..."
"Next, Yun Ci."
"So his name is Yun Ci."
"He's really good-looking, hehe. I wonder if I'll be assigned to the same cave as him."
Yun Ci took a deep breath, walked onto the table, sat cross-legged, and closed her eyes.
The man stared at the young boy on the stage.
The images and text began to rotate, faster and faster.
Yun Ci felt his heart and mind suddenly go blank.
Five minutes passed, and the pillar and the test stone showed no reaction whatsoever.
People around started talking.
"Why isn't the test stone reacting?"
"That means he has no talent for cultivation..."
"That's a real shame... I'll have to travel all that way back again. I hope I can make it; I really don't want to go back..."
"He might not go back; he might become a menial disciple..."
Two more minutes passed, just as the uncle who was testing the spiritual roots was about to say "stop".
Five pillars of light immediately illuminated, and the testing stone turned green.
The uncle who was testing spiritual roots looked at the pillar that was only emitting a green light and immediately stood up excitedly.
"A superior-grade wood spirit root! A single spirit root!"
So far, he is the only disciple with a superior spiritual root, and also a single spiritual root.
A single superior spiritual root, extremely high talent, smooth cultivation, a once-in-a-century occurrence!
Not bad.
The master who tested spiritual roots looked at Yun Ci and liked him no matter how he looked at him.
After all, people don't like geniuses.
Yun Ci opened her eyes, heard the result, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She then stood up and walked off the stage.
Hehe, he can stay now.
At this moment, a figure stood in front of Yun Ci, and Yun Ci looked up at the cold-faced man in front of her.
Just as Yun Ci was about to ask a question.
The tall man lowered his eyes.
The jet-black eyes reflected the young boy, who was tilting his head back, his eyes clear and bright.
The man spoke in a detached voice, "Would you be willing to become my personal disciple?"
