Chapter 140 Four Heartless Way

Although Lu Yang and the other seven people did not complete the final perseverance test, they persisted until the end, and they all walked more than half of the distance.According to regulations, these seven people can undergo the next round of assessment, and if they pass, they can stay in Jiuxuanzong and become registered disciples.However, because these people have passed through the thorn forest, their injuries are not serious, and they need to recuperate for a few days, so all the assessments are scheduled for three days later.

The seven people were taken to a house, one room for each, and the registered disciples were responsible for their injuries, recuperation and food.Those registered disciples took out a white medicine bottle, poured a light yellow liquid from it and smeared it on everyone's body.These liquids seemed ordinary, but after they were applied on the body, an unimaginable scene happened.

The wound healed at an astonishing speed. In just half an hour, a scar formed, and then the scar fell off, revealing the original skin.Looking carefully, there was surprisingly no scar left on the skin, just like the skin of a newborn baby, rosy in the white.After the named disciple applied the potion, he helped everyone onto the bed and left.

That night, Lu Yang woke up. He looked around and recalled what happened before he fell into a coma.Thinking that there are still ten feet left to complete the assessment, but there is no time, I feel uncomfortable.After a while, Lu Yang sighed, got up and got out of bed, and immediately walked out of the room.

Hearing a creak, the door of the room opened. Lu Yang was just about to go out for a walk, but he saw a young man in his 20s standing outside the door.The man was wearing a gray robe, and his appearance was ordinary, which belonged to the kind of appearance that was difficult to find in the crowd.When the young man saw Lu Yang, he was slightly taken aback. He obviously didn't expect Lu Yang to wake up so soon, and hurriedly said: "Little brother, your injury is not healed yet, you need to rest more."

Hearing this, Lu Yang's heart warmed up. The other party was an immortal, and he was so polite to him, so he hurriedly said, "Thank you immortal, where is this?"

The young man was startled again, and then smiled wryly: "I'm not a fairy, don't look at me living in the Nine Profound Sect, my status is not high, and I have never practiced immortality." When he said this, his eyes flashed Feeling helpless, the conversation changed: "This is the outer court of Jiuxuanzong, I am a registered disciple, little brother, don't call me an immortal in the future."

Lu Yang frowned, his eyes were full of puzzlement, and he clasped his fists like a fairy and said, "My name is Lu Yang, Lu of land, Yang of ocean, what do you call my brother?"

"My name is Wang Han." Wang Han, who is also a straightforward person, said with a smile, "If you don't mind, you can just call me Big Brother Wang in the future."

After Lu Yang clicked, he felt that this was an opportunity. If he failed the next round of assessment, he might have to take out the Nine Profound Jade Bi to enter the Xianjia sect.Lu Yang was very curious about the situation of the Xianjia sect, and couldn't help but said: "Brother Wang, I don't understand some things, I hope Brother Wang can explain a thing or two."

"It's easy to say." Wang Han glanced around and saw many registered disciples like him who were responsible for taking care of Lu Yang and others, either returning to the room to rest, or entering the room to take care of him, so he said: "It's getting late , if you want to hear it, let's go into the room and talk!"

The two entered the room, because there were two beds in the room, and after the two lay down, Wang Han said, "Lu Yang, just tell me what you want to ask!"

Lu Yang didn't talk nonsense, and asked straight to the point: "If I complete the next round of assessment and become a disciple of the Nine Profound Sect, can I practice immortality?"

Wang Han smiled wryly, waved his hands and said, "Lu Yang, you know too little about the situation of the Xianjia sect, let alone you passed the third round of assessment, even if you pass the first and second round of assessment, you may not be able to become a Formal disciples." He paused for a moment, then continued: "The Xianjia sect selects disciples based on aptitude and spiritual roots. If they don't have a single-attribute spiritual root, they can't become formal disciples at all."

"For example, me! I have a dual-attribute spiritual root, which is not bad among mortals." Wang Han said a little depressed, "If more than ten years ago, I could become a formal disciple with a spiritual root attribute like mine, but nine There are too many immortals in Xuanzong, and someone like me can only become a registered disciple. It is said that the selection of disciples has become more strict in recent years, and a dual-attribute spiritual root like me cannot even be a registered disciple."

Lu Yang thought that in the first round of assessment, there was indeed a pair of spiritual roots, and that person was still eliminated.

Wang Han glanced at Lu Yang, saw that he understood, and continued: "So! It is very difficult to become a registered disciple. Don't look at us staying in Jiuxuanzong. On the surface, we are very beautiful, and we are immortals in the eyes of mortals. In fact To put it bluntly, we are doing odd jobs for immortals. If we are lucky, we can become formal disciples after ten years of doing odd jobs. If we are unlucky, we can only work here as coolies for the rest of our lives."

"Ah!" Lu Yang was stunned, and couldn't help asking, "Is it that difficult to become an official disciple?"

"It's more than difficult, it's unimaginably difficult." Wang Han sighed again, and said slowly, "I just said that if you want to become a formal disciple, you must work as a handyman for ten years. You can't make mistakes in these ten years. You can’t fail to complete the task, otherwise, you will have to wait another ten years. When you perform well within ten years, you can practice the law, and you have to cultivate spiritual power to become a formal disciple.”

Hearing what Wang Han said, Lu Yang also felt that cultivating immortals was much more difficult than imagined, and asked again: "Brother Wang, the last round of assessment is luck, is it possible for me to pass?"

Wang Han was very familiar with this round of assessment. Seeing that Lu Yang was eager to know, he didn't hide it, and said, "The so-called luck assessment is not ordinary luck, but very good luck. It's always like this in previous years. You enter the Jiange, take out more than a dozen fairy swords, you choose a fairy sword with spirituality, whoever gets it can become a registered disciple, if you can't get it, all of them will be eliminated."

"Choose one person out of more than a dozen fairy swords, and the chance of success is indeed very low." Lu Yang originally thought that the final round of assessment would be easier, but he didn't expect the probability to be too low, so he hurriedly asked, "Is there any mystery in this assessment? For example Say, which direction to choose the fairy sword, or what kind of fairy sword can pass through."

Wang Han waved his hand, gave Lu Yang a look not to think too much, and said: "I advise you not to think so much. All of this is luck, but it is fate. Those fairy swords have no rules at all. I listen to others. It is said that in the past few decades, there are only a handful of people who have completed the last level, and there are only three people at most."

"So few?" Lu Yang's eyes widened. Doesn't this mean that the probability of success in the last round is infinitely close to zero?

Wang Han nodded and sighed: "Everyone in the world wants to cultivate immortality, but cultivation is far from as simple as imagined. What if you become a registered disciple? What if you become a formal disciple? The road to immortality is difficult, even if you If you practice hard day and night, you may not be able to break through to a certain level. Apart from spiritual root aptitude, you also need luck, and in the end, you even need understanding."

"What is comprehension? Don't say we can't figure it out, even the elders in Jiuxuanzong can't figure it out." The helplessness in Wang Han's eyes became stronger, "The way is ruthless, the way is ruthless! Boundless scenery is actually a road of no return, once you step into the Xianjia sect, there is no possibility of turning back, and now I regret that I came here to participate in the selection of disciples."

"Regret?" Lu Yang was taken aback, seeing that Wang Han was only in his early twenties, did he regret this?

Knowing what Lu Yang was thinking, Wang Han gave a wry smile and said, "Don't look at me as young. I have been here for eight years. The past eight years have not been very smooth. I made many mistakes along the way. I want to complete ten years. There are still five years to go without mistakes. Let me think again, can I not make mistakes in these five years? It is very difficult!!! Among the thousands of registered disciples, very few can learn the magic of immortality, and the only ones who have become formal disciples Just a few people."

Speaking of this, Wang Han paused for a moment, and then continued: "If I hadn't come here, I would have many choices. I could go home to farm, get fame, and do business. But now, besides doing odd jobs here, I don't know what to do. I can’t do it either. To put it bluntly, I work when I’m full, and eat when I’m done. This kind of life is day after day, year after year, and I don’t know when I will grow up.”

Lu Yang didn't know how to persuade people, but at this time he sympathized with Wang Han, saying: "Brother Wang, you persevere and don't give up. One day you will become a fairy."

"So what if you give up, so what if you don't give up? Maybe ### can become a fairy in the future, maybe you can only be a handyman." Wang Han looked at Lu Yang, and changed the subject, "Brother, if you are not selected, Don’t come here again in the future, the chance of success is really low. I suggest you go home, so that you can spend more time with your parents, instead of being like me, it is difficult to see your parents.”

"Parents?" Lu Yang smiled wryly in his heart, his mother is gone, so what if his father sees him, he is the patriarch of the Lu family, and he must consider the future of the Lu family in everything he does, even if he goes to see his father now, he may not be able to See you.Lu Yang didn't talk about this topic, but changed the subject: "Can't you usually go home?"

Wang Han shook his head and said: "You can go home once every three years, and you can only stay at home for three days each time. For three years, how many years does it take for a person to go home? Even if you go back every three years, how many times can you go back in total? When we grow up, we won’t be able to see each other a few times, if they get sick in the future, I’m afraid they won’t be able to see us for the last time before dying, hey!!!”

The two chatted until late at night before falling asleep. Lu Yang lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Before coming here, I always wanted to enter the sect of the immortal family and learn the art of cultivation. I came here, only to find that the gap between cultivating immortals and imagining is too big, and it is not the same at all.If you waste your youth here, and you can't learn anything, when will you be able to practice immortality and avenge your mother?

At this moment, Lu Yang was confused. He didn't know whether he should stay as a registered disciple or not.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Wang Han bid farewell to Lu Yang, asked him to stay here, and left.

In the early morning three days later, a familiar voice came from outside the room, and he said sharply: "You wait for the seven to come out! The final round of assessment will begin immediately..."
