Fortune Teller

The highest point of the mind space.

Nearly a hundred figures looked down from a distance, most of them were the Supreme Immortals, and there were also some Elders of Immortals from various branch halls.

As for the law enforcement envoys under the command of Elder Jiujian and Gu Xiuyun, they were nowhere to be seen at this moment.

During the general election of the Xi Palace sect, the law enforcement line was only acting as supervisors, and those who were really responsible for the test were the Supremes of each palace. At this moment, the test had just begun, so the law enforcement envoys were naturally not in a hurry to show up.

"As expected, these people only focus on climbing to a higher platform and completely ignore the opportunities behind the stone monument. This kind of mentality is really embarrassing for such a big task."

"They were also confused by the surrounding scene and lost their bearings for a moment. I believe they will react soon."

"So what if they react? Without the guidance of the stone tablets from the previous levels, how can they master an inheritance? One wrong step, one wrong step after another, and they have no chance to regret it."

The acting masters talked about it.

The test of the Xi Palace is, on the surface, a competition of who can climb a higher cloud platform. In fact, it is a competition of Taoist heart and understanding.

Those various stone tablets actually contain a hidden inheritance.

Only by advancing step by step from the first level to the ninth level can you master the entire inheritance.

Without the previous foundation, let alone a true master, even a realm master would have a hard time understanding the hurdles involved.

"The nature of mind is also part of the spiritual path."

An acting elder said coldly, "If you can't even maintain the most basic calmness, what qualifications do you have to pursue the great path? The purpose of recruiting them to the Xi Imperial Palace is not to cultivate a few useless true masters. At the very least, they must have achieved Only those with potential in the Eight Difficulties can be included in the waiting list of disciples.”

"That's what the elder said."

Everyone nodded.

The resources of the Xi Palace are also limited, and it is impossible to bring all practitioners under the sect. The most elite and potential juniors must be selected to train them, and potential cannot be seen based on cultivation level and age alone.

The Six Difficulties True Venerables must be stronger than ordinary Venerables?

Not necessarily, maybe the difference in cultivation years between the two parties is hundreds of times, one is close to one year, and the other has just embarked on the path of cultivation.

How do you compare these two people? Fighting head-on?

In addition, even those True Masters of the Six Difficulties who have been practicing for a relatively short period of time are not necessarily geniuses. Maybe there is a powerful force behind them, so they can reach the peak of the Six Difficulties in a very short period of time. However, no matter how big the background of these people is , and cannot enter the eyes of the Xi Palace.

Therefore, the Xi Palace set up a nine-layer cloud platform.

There are countless stone tablets in the cloud platform, but in fact, there are only three real tests.

…

The first is the blood-colored stone tablet, which tests not the strength, but the Taoist heart.

Choosing the blood-colored stone tablet is equivalent to choosing the path of killing. This path itself is not difficult to walk. As long as you kill enough people, you can condense the killing energy, but few can actually become the Seven Difficulties Realm Lord with this. Very few.

Because in the way of killing, the hardest thing is not the fight, but the inner demons.

Back then, Gu Xiuyun's mind and will were so terrifying, but his killing body was still almost invaded by the inner demon. You can imagine how difficult that level was, and this situation lasted for many years until he understood the third step of the killing system. Six rules to finally get rid of the influence of inner demons.

Gu Xiuyun is like this, let alone those ordinary true masters?

Even if those people can understand the rules of killing, they will be controlled by their inner demons, turn into monsters that are neither human nor ghosts, and finally disappear.

Those who can truly break through the inner demon barrier and become a strong person in the killing lineage... are almost rare.

Therefore, the blood-colored stone tablet is not a test of strength, but of Taoism.

Anyone who chooses this path will eventually face the test of the inner demon tribulation brought down by the Nine Cloud Platform. Only by passing the inner demon tribulation can they be recognized by the Xi Palace.

…

The second test is the various secret stone tablets.

Whether it is secret techniques, formations, or alchemy and weapon refining, what is tested is the practitioner's understanding.

Xi Palace has arranged so many stone tablets to let them choose the direction that suits them best. If this doesn't work, it only means that the person has poor understanding, and naturally he will not be able to catch the eyes of Xi Palace.

…

The third test, the simplest and most difficult, tests the will.

There are some stone tablets of will on each floor of the Jiuzhong Cloud Platform. Those who approach the stone tablets will be shocked by the terrifying will. If they can successfully walk to the monument, they can climb to a higher cloud platform.

As far as the Xi Palace is concerned, those with a strong will are undoubtedly the most talented people.

Because of the extraordinary will, it means that even if this person is not at a high level, he can still have combat power that is far superior to his peers. Even like Elder Tiandu, with the cultivation of Yan Zhenjing, he can exert combat power comparable to that of Elder Yan. .

This kind of practitioner is the most worthy of training.

Because the Xi Palace can forcibly create an ordinary Supreme Master using magical medicine and spiritual materials, but it cannot create an Acting Elder. The difference between the two is really too big.

…

Three kinds of stone tablets are respectively aimed at Taoist mind, understanding and will.

This is the real test of the Xi Palace.

At this time, nearly 10% of the cultivators who entered the mind space chose the blood-colored stone tablet. Most of the rest had low cultivation levels and did not dare to take that path. However, they had no idea that the Xi Palace had set a test. In the true meaning, one by one randomly selected a stone tablet and began to understand the secret techniques.

Only a handful of practitioners are looking for the stone tablet that best suits them.

Zhu Xi is one of them.

"Uncle Dongyan once said that there are nine rules in the way of destiny. The shadow of destiny that I comprehended belongs to the external cultivation method. The difficulty of cultivation is much higher than that of Tianji Deduction. Moreover, my talent is not very good, so I have been slow to Didn’t understand the rules of fate.”

Zhu Xi's face was neither sad nor happy.

In terms of talent, he is not as good as Dong Yan and Long Yang, let alone figures like Qu Zhonghe and Black Lock Mountain Master. After all, those people are top experts who have experienced countless catastrophes and emerged from practitioners as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River.

But he has a calm heart.

Zhu Xi came from humble beginnings. Once upon a time, the venerable realm was beyond his reach. But now, he has become a Six Difficulties True Master. This is due to the help of the Changhe Sect and his own efforts. .

He is like an ordinary grass. Although ordinary, he never stops moving forward.

After a long time.

Zhu Xi came to a stone tablet.

The stone tablet vaguely reveals the fluctuations of fate, which are weak and plain, but also hide a little aloofness, which is the yearning for strength.

"This is it!"

Zhu Xi had a smile on her face.

Although it was only a glance, he was already sure that this was the stone tablet he had been looking for for a long time.
