Chapter 496 Ye Jun Comes
When Fang Qingxue looked dumbfounded at the pile of thick ancient books in front of him, and finally hugged them back to copy them helplessly, Medusa couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Sister, are those really the rules of the sect?" Qinglin's jaw dropped in shock.

"Of course!" Medusa said with a smile, "Have you forgotten my identity? I'm the punishment elder of the Feathering Immortal Sect. What rules are there? Is it up to me? Of course there were not so many rules before, but now there are Yes, I just made it!"

Qinglin couldn't help sticking out her tongue, feeling a little helpless towards Medusa's bad taste.

The two were chatting and laughing here, while the people at the foot of the mountain were waiting bitterly. However, for those young men who came to ask for immortality, it was a great fortune to see the smiles of the two fairies. , I'm afraid time flies too fast.

They didn't know that Medusa and Qinglin were also quietly observing them.

The terrain at the foot of the mountain is open, and there is a surge of people. There are tens of thousands of people gathered here, but it is not crowded at all, and they are all waiting for candidates to be selected.

And this is only the first day, and it will last for seven days. If there are so many people every day, you can imagine how many people will rush here.

These people come from dozens of surrounding countries, and they all have certain talents, but only a small part can stay. They must be talented and outstanding.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is even stricter than the emperor's selection of concubines.

"Sister, have you found Mr.?" Qinglin asked.

Medusa shook her head, Qinglin's eyes felt a little lost, and she didn't find Ye Jun's reincarnation.

"Don't be discouraged. Since Ye Jun can calculate that the reincarnation of the Mother of Lightning will come to the Yuhua Xianmen, he naturally has his own plans, and he may not come to the Yuhua Xianzong."

After a pause, he comforted: "Besides, there are seven days before the gate of the mountain is opened, and this is only the first day!"

Qing Lin nodded, but her eyes still couldn't hide her disappointment.

Although this is what I said, those who can come to seek immortality and ask questions are the same as receiving awards. I am afraid that I will be late, so I usually come early. Who will delay until the last few days?
Medusa comforted her, and immediately leaped to the top of the ladder, looking down at the mortals at the foot of the mountain, her voice was faint, majestic and concise, and could be heard clearly in every corner:
"The Feathering Immortal Sect, today, is recruiting disciples from all over the world. Anyone who can climb the ladder can be called a handyman. Those who can pass a hundred steps of the ladder can be regarded as outer disciples. Those who can pass three hundred steps can be regarded as inner disciples. Those who reach the [-]th level can be true disciples. Those who can climb to the top can learn from their masters!"

As soon as this remark came out, even many people in the Yuhua Immortal Sect were surprised.In the past, there was no such last rule.

It seems that the arrival of Fang Qingxue, the true disciple who climbed to the top of the 99 steps, made the head teacher feel that he was being compared in face, and wanted to recruit a disciple to compare others.

"Start!" With an order, the clouds and mist dispersed, and the ladder finally showed the true face of Lushan Mountain.

Everyone swarmed forward, frantically running forward, for fear of falling behind others.

However, some well-dressed people were not in a hurry to leave. They were all of extraordinary background, or they had heard the rumors of Yuhua Xianmen recruiting disciples, or some elders in their families had told them that they knew something about climbing the ladder.

They know that there is no need to rush.Recruiting disciples is based on aptitude, not entirely on speed.Besides, your speed is fast and your aptitude is not good enough, so you will be brushed off sooner or later.This is just like the journey of cultivating immortality, not to go faster than anyone else, but to go farther than anyone else.

Sure enough, climbing the ladder to heaven, although it looks very simple, just like an ordinary stone step, but there is a universe inside.

To go to the ladder, you must first pass through a dragon gate, which is similar to the existence of the demon mirror, and any disciples who have practiced other martial art skills, or disciples of the magic way, will be exposed when they pass through this place.This is also to prevent traitors from sneaking in.

"what……"

Suddenly, there was a scream in front.

In the dragon gate, a ball of golden light burst out and landed on a candidate. Suddenly, as if sulfuric acid was being poured down, black smoke billowed from the person's body, hissing, and he could not help screaming and rolling.

"Another evil thief wants to fish in troubled waters. Every time there are several such people, they are really bold and reckless!" Seeing this scene, the disciples of Yuhua Immortal Sect couldn't help but sneer.

But in a short time, the demonic man was directly corroded into a pile of yellow water, leaving only a few tattered muscle clothes on the ground.

The terrifying scene almost scared the people around.Many of these candidates are ordinary people seeking immortality, how have they ever seen such a tragic scene?Especially some timid women screamed in fright.

"Don't be nervous, everyone. This person is a thief of the Devil's Way. If he wants to sneak into the Immortal Sect, he will be killed. As long as you are innocent and have never practiced the Devil's Way, you will naturally not be attacked!" Immediately, there were disciples who maintained order Go forward and explain.

With peace of mind, the selection started again, and the crowd flocked towards the ladder again.In the direction of the flow of people, there were also a few figures who retreated quietly, wanting to escape.However, they had long been targeted by the disciples of the Yuhua Immortal Sect, and soon, several disciples of the Yuhua Immortal Sect followed them quietly. You don't need to guess what will happen to these people.

The ladder to the sky is not high, especially the first step, almost even children can climb it.

However, quite a few people were transported down by a beam of light the moment they climbed the first step.

Today, there are no fewer than hundreds of thousands of people who came to ask for immortality, but ninety-nine percent of them were sent back by the immortal light, and they were regarded as having no celestial fate.

"This is the spirit-exploring stone refined by the third generation patriarch of our Yuhua Xianzong. If you don't have the aptitude for cultivation, you won't be able to get there at all." Some disciples of Yuhua Xianzong whispered.

Many of the people who were sent out were very unwilling and moved forward again, but the result was no different, still the same.

There are many young disciples guarding the Yuhua Immortal Sect, and no one dares to make trouble. After being teleported back several times, those people had to leave dejectedly.

Seeing that the space in front was almost empty, those disciples of the princes and nobles with extraordinary identities set off suddenly and began to climb the ladder.At this time, some people have already climbed to the height of the hundred steps.

These children of princes and nobles are of extraordinary status. Before they came, the family had checked them, and only those who could practice would be sent here.

"My king will go too!"

A figure rushed out suddenly, and there was a sound of thunder. Immediately, everyone saw a figure rushing towards the ladder like a wind and thunder.

"Brush it down!" Some eliminated people secretly cursed.

However, they overthink it.

This person's aptitude is obviously extraordinary. After buying the ladder in one step, he can climb three or five steps in almost every step. The speed is extremely fast, and he rushed straight up. It took almost a moment to catch up with the person in the front.

"This person is the youngest son of the emperor of the Dali Dynasty. It is said that he has extremely high qualifications. The elders have already secretly favored him. He will guard the disciples when he gets started!" someone acquainted with him discussed in a low voice.

Suddenly, a cold snort came from the side: "What kind of bullshit prince, what kind of thing is he in front of me, Long Aotian!"

The person who spoke was tall and tall, and his head was horny. When he took a step, he was accompanied by the sound of dragon chant. His speed was even faster than that of Prince Dali just now!
"Could this person be Long Aotian, the No. 18 descendant of the Long Family? It is said that the ancestor of the Long Family was a disciple of the Yuhua Immortal Sect, and the Long Family's Shenlonggong also originated from the Yuhua Immortal Sect. It is really extraordinary!"

"It's really interesting to gather the masters of the world together. I, Ye Liangchen, will never be weaker than others in my life!"

Another person flitted out, his lightness skill was extremely high, he carried a long sword on his back, and climbed up the ladder like a sword fairy.

"It's Ye Liangchen who is known as the land sword fairy. He defeated the sword master at the age of 13, and his sword skills are extraordinary. Unexpectedly, he also came!"

"Who doesn't want to become an immortal? He is called Lu Jianxian, after all, he is just a mortal martial artist. How could he not yearn for the immortal way?" Someone tutted.

Climbing to the top of the ladder, Medusa and Qinglin, like banished immortals, came to the world, looking down indifferently.

Regardless of whether it was a prince or a martial arts genius who came up from below, they still couldn't arouse their interest. When they heard the word Ye Liangchen, the eyes of the two women fluctuated slightly, and then they looked at each other again.

"no!"

"He doesn't use a sword!"

The two girls shook their heads in disappointment.

After all, it was only for that Ye Zi.

And at this time, the pier thousands of miles away from Yuhua Xianmen,

A beggar was thrown from a merchant ship by two boatmen.

"Dumb, what are you doing here without money?"

The two boatmen scolded: "You are so old, you still have the face to rub the boat!"

The beggar fell to the ground, got up and knelt on the ground again, kowtowed a few times to the boatman, and said something silently.

However, the boatman was unmoved. They had seen this kind of person many times.Either they want to beg from the people on the merchant ship, or they want to take a ride with the wind and go to the next bustling place to beg.After all, the place where merchant ships transport so much goods must be extremely prosperous.

"Give."

A voice sounded.

The beggar raised his head and saw the young man in front of him handing over a money bag.

"Take it."

The young man put the money into his hand and said, "Stop begging, take this money, find a place to do some small business, stand upright and live a good life."

The young man's voice was very contagious. After the beggar was stunned for a while, his eyes were a little red. He was born a beggar and felt that he would be a beggar all his life. This was the first time someone told him that he could stand up and do a good job. one person!

"Yezi, get on the boat, we're leaving!"

cried the boatman.

"coming."

The young man responded, smiled at the beggar, and then quickly ran onto the boat.

"What are you meddling with?"

The two boatmen held the young man back, not worth it for him: "This man has hands and feet but doesn't work and only knows to eat for free. What's so pitiful?"

"You're just too kind."

The boatmen were scolding the boy, but they were not angry.

Ye Zi is a young man picked up by the captain at the beach two months ago. He seems to have been shipwrecked and forgot everything about himself.When I saw the leaves, I felt that the life of the leaves was very similar to myself, so I might as well call them leaves.

The captain felt sorry for him, so he accepted him as a boatman. The other boatmen didn't like him at first, but he was eloquent, lively and cheerful, and soon became friends with them.

"You're crazy to give away your hard-earned money."

"Isn't money just for spending? Why keep it!" Ye Zi smiled.

"You are too young, you will know when you are our age, no matter what, you have to save some money for retirement!" The boatman tried his best to persuade the young man not to spend too much money.

"Why do you want to support the elderly? I don't even know when it happened!"

"A person's life is very fast. Decades will pass by in the blink of an eye, and you will be old!" An old boatman sighed, "We are not gods. We will be old after living for decades. If we don't save some money, we will marry Wife and child, how to provide for the elderly in the future?"

"What's so great about being a fairy. Maybe I can live for hundreds of years!" The young man smiled.

"You're not a god, how can you live for hundreds of years?" The boatman laughed and said, "Only those gods in the legend can live for hundreds of years, thousands of years, or even immortality!"

"What gods can do, I can do too!" The young man was a little unconvinced, "How can there be gods? I'm going to see and see!"

"Hahaha..." The other boatmen laughed loudly, as if seeing themselves who were ignorant of the world back then.

"Want to meet the gods? Thousands of miles away, the Yuhua Immortal Sect is recruiting disciples. If you rush over now, maybe if you have the opportunity to learn from the Yuhua Immortal Sect, you will be able to see the immortals!" Someone said, feeling a little regretful and nostalgic, Said: "Back then, I was someone who had climbed the ladder. Unfortunately, I almost climbed a hundred steps. I didn't become an outer disciple, so I could only be a handyman. But what is being a handyman? Even if it is a handyman for a fairy slavery, not as free as I am now, but I have married three wives..."

"Old Wang, you also climbed the ladder back then? You really can't be judged by your appearance!" Someone exclaimed and enviously said: "If it were me, I would stay there. A few elixirs can prolong life and prolong life!"

"If you want to be a master, what is it to be a handyman?" The young Ye Zi snorted and said, "Even if you want to become a god, you have to be the most powerful one!"

As he said that, the young Ye Zi suddenly jumped off the bow of the boat.

"Hey, Ye Zi, the boat is about to leave, where are you going?"

"Fathering Immortal Sect, I want to become a Master! To be a Master!" The young Ye Zi's voice was full of determination, without turning his head.

The ceremony of recruiting disciples of Yuhua Xianmen is in full swing.

On the ladder to the sky, dozens of figures have already left the crowd far away. They have climbed more than 300 steps and can become inner disciples, but they are still far from the true disciples who have reached [-] steps. few.

In this way, time, six days passed in a flash.

On the ladder, the huge crowd has become empty, and the six-day selection is enough to screen tens of thousands of people.At this time, only a dozen or so people remained on the ladder.

These people have climbed more than 400 steps, and they are only one step away from the true position of [-] steps. They don't want to give up just like that.

Several people stopped, ate some dry food they carried with them, and after replenishing their strength, they continued to climb.

Time is getting less and less, and at this time, every time you climb a step, the difficulty will double.

At the same time, a little donkey came to the foot of the mountain.

On the back of the donkey, a young man, holding a piece of dog's tail grass in his mouth, wobbled on the donkey's back, driving the donkey towards the ladder unhurriedly.
