Ji Ruochen was invincible in the annual examination, and all the masters praised Ji Ruochen. Even Master Taiyin, who did not give in easily to others, gave him a few words of encouragement for the first time. In the eyes of Master Taiyin, Ji Ruochen no matter how fast his Taoism progressed or how secret his method was.

None of the mysteries are worth showing off, but the turtle-shrinking method he developed based on the innate hexagrams is really unprecedented and is quite commendable.

In fact, the Tao Te Sect can be traced back to more than three thousand years, with thick accumulation and thin hair. As the disciples of the Three Pure Realms are getting deeper and deeper, they have no idea how many sharp attack methods they have. When Ji Ruochen can reach the realm of the Supreme Purity, Ji Ruochen will do this again

If you can't get out, you don't know how many holes will be penetrated by the opponent's flying sword weapon.

Ji Ruochen had other plans in his mind. As soon as the annual examination was over, he devoted himself to studying the alchemy cauldron and the innate hexagrams. Master Ziyun and Master Shouzhen were overjoyed. In addition to giving them careful guidance, they also gave him many natural and earthly treasures.

It is used for divination and elixir refining. Needless to say more about the knowledge of elixir cauldron, it is impossible to make elixir without medicine. Although when the Taoism is deep, real fire can be used as a guide and spiritual energy can be used as medicine. Once this elixir is refined, the situation will change, and the world will change.

Alarmed. But even Master Ziyun didn't dare to try this method of alchemy. Ji Ruochen didn't know how many years and months it would take to use it. He was new to learning alchemy, so of course he had to consume a lot of materials.

And Master Shouzhen's innate hexagrams have been studied to the depths, which is really shocking. The magic materials and immortal materials spent in it are no less than the study of alchemy. Therefore, if Master Ziyun and Master Shouzhen had not spent their lives like this,

The effort of intensive research and the collection of materials alone are enough to deter many ascetics.

Since Ji Ruochen is obsessed with this at this time, the two real people will naturally respond to their requests. Although his number of failures is really high, the two palaces have collected it for thousands of years, and this bit of information is just a drop in the bucket. How can they take it seriously?

In fact, Ji Ruochen is very knowledgeable about hexagrams and elixirs, and he is definitely not as clumsy as he appears. Otherwise, how could he understand the incomprehensible method from the innate hexagrams? But it is clear that elixirs and divination can be successful at one time.

, he must do it in three parts. Most of the raw materials from the two failed attempts have actually been quietly dissociated by him and used to replenish his own energy.

Which of the materials given to Ji Ruochen by the masters was not filled with spiritual energy? Ji Ruochen supplemented it, and Dao Xingjingjing slowly caught up with him. But when he looked back, although there were countless disciples behind him, in front of him, Ji Bingxian and others

However, as we traveled farther and farther, the gap in our cultivation progress actually widened bit by bit.

Ji Ruochen knew that everyone had different talents and opportunities, so he couldn't force this matter. When he was dejected, he could only sigh.

Every day passed in a hurry, until Ji Ruochen saw the snow falling again, Ji Ruochen was shocked to realize that another year had passed.

The annual exams are approaching in the calm, repetitive and somewhat boring days. Ji Ruochen meditates in the middle of the night, and his heart is like the moon under the flat lake, which is as bright as a mirror and not a single wave of water is reflected.

Quietly, a girl's figure slowly rose from the lake. She lowered her head and wrung her hands in front of her, obviously upset. Ji Ruochen was standing beside her, the wooden sword held high in his hand trembling slightly.

, I don’t know if I should fight it.

A bright moon rises slowly, coating the lake with a layer of silver.

Ji Ruochen finally shot down with a sword, but on the lake under the moon, she was so graceful, how could there be any hint of pampering and arrogance? And there was clearly something else in that slender back. Ji Ruochen's heart trembled, his hand shook, and the wooden sword

He was harsh at first, then weak, and finally gave her a weak slap on the buttocks. What was originally a 10% punishment turned into 10% punishment and 90% frivolousness.

She looked back suddenly as if she had been shocked by electricity, and there seemed to be lightning and thunder where her eyes met. Without saying a word, the girl suddenly turned around and ran away, as panic-stricken as a frightened rabbit.

Only Ji Ruochen stood dumbly holding his sword.

He suddenly woke up from the illusion, and then he realized that he was still meditating and cultivating, warming up his true energy, and must not have any delusional thoughts.

Ji Ruochen sighed secretly, and after careful calculation, it turned out that two years had passed. In the past two years, Zhang Yin Yin never appeared in front of him again, and he was not on good terms with the disciples of Tai Xuan Peak, so he had no excuse to go to Tai Xuan Peak.

You. Taishang Daode Palace occupies an extremely large area, no smaller than a major city in the world. It is almost impossible to encounter it by chance on the road.

When Ji Ruochen thought of this, his heart was filled with excitement. The waves on the flat lake under the moon suddenly turned into huge waves in the sky! Suddenly, his mud ball moved, and a drop of blue water came out, slowly falling, and landed on the mysterious orifice.

.In an instant, Ji Ruochen's body was filled with a strange fragrance, his eyes shone brightly, and the essence in his chest was like a wave. He couldn't help but let out a long roar, the sound was like a dragon, and there was also the sound of bells and cauldrons in the middle. The roar went straight into the clouds and nights, and for a while

Everyone in Taichang Palace was shocked!

There are many disciples in Taichang Palace. After hearing the whistle in the middle of the night, they knew that another person had reached the realm of Taiqing Zhensheng. Everyone had been accustomed to this matter for a long time, so they didn't take it seriously and went about their business.

There are two other elders in the Taichang Palace, who are the disciples of Ziyang Zhenren. One of them is studying and the other is refining elixirs. After hearing the whistling sound, they both had doubts on their faces, but after thinking for a moment, they continued to read the books.

Alchemy has not been studied in depth.

Taoist Master Yunfeng was doing some meditation in a quiet room when he was suddenly awakened by Ji Ruochen's whistle. He also had a look of surprise on his face. He thought thoughtfully, got out of bed, put on his clothes, went to the outside, and began to rummage through the shelves full of Taoist canons.

I searched for it, and after a while I pulled out a copy of "Earth Immortal Chronicles" and began to study it carefully.

Ziyang Zhenren was holding a Daozang in his hand, pacing and reading. When the sound like a dragon's roar came through the window, he looked stunned, and the Daozang in his hand fell to the ground with a snap.

This night, there are still three days before the annual exam.

Ji Ruochen did not expect that he would meet Zhang Yin Yin in the first round of the annual exam. And it was not until Ji Ruochen entered the competition field that Zhang Yin Yin realized that he had heard the name called by the chief examiner correctly.

The two stood opposite each other and looked at each other for a long time. For a moment, neither of them forgot to make a move. In the blink of an eye, the winners and losers had already been decided in some competitions in the competition field nearby. Ji Ruochen and Zhang Yinyin were still standing still. The chief test leader noticed

Seeing the strange situation here, he couldn't help but frown. But one was a student taught by Master Ba Mei, and the other was the beloved daughter of Master Jingxiao. He didn't want to offend either of them, so he coughed several times as a reminder.

Only then did Ji Ruochen realize that he had lost his composure, so he raised his sword, clasped his fists, and said, "Yin Yin..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished his greetings, Zhang Yinyin seemed to be frightened. He suddenly raised the wooden sword and vibrated nine times in an instant. Every time it vibrated, a layer of water-blue brilliance appeared on the sword. By the ninth earthquake,

The sword body has been completely covered by the water-colored brilliance.

Ji Ruochen was shocked. He had no idea that she had cultivated such a powerful Kuishui Sword Qi. Before he could react, his eyes were filled with blue light, and Zhang Yin Yin actually controlled the sword with his body and rushed towards him! The sword hadn't even arrived yet.

, the fierce murderous aura has made Ji Ruochen's hair fly!

Ji Ruochen never expected that when they meet again two years later, Zhang Yin Yin would fight to the death!

He didn't have time to think about it, and acted instinctively. He lowered his head and passed Zhang Yinyin's wooden sword. Then, with his figure like smoke, he silently circled behind her, swung the wooden sword in a circle, and struck her on the back of the head!

It wasn't until the wooden sword was about to touch the back of Zhang Yin Yin's head that Ji Ruochen realized it and hurriedly exerted force on his hand to stop the wooden sword's movement.

The wooden sword was only a few minutes away from Zhang Yin Yin Ruyun's beautiful hair. Her black hair was pulled up with a purple and gold flying phoenix pearl hairpin inserted in it. A round pearl in the phoenix's mouth gently hit the edge of the wooden sword and bounced again.

go back.

Zhang Yinyin continued to charge forward. Although she found that Ji Ruochen was no longer in front of her, she still rushed forward a few feet and then stopped. She turned around in shock, and the beaded hairpin on her head suddenly broke into more than ten pieces, and her hair fell down like a waterfall.

.

Zhang Yin Yin's small mouth was slightly open, and there was no blood on his lips, and there were water waves flashing in his starry eyes. Ji Ruochen also didn't expect that Zhang Yin Yin would be defeated in one move, and he stood on the ground blankly for a while.

Zhang Yin Yin suddenly dropped her wooden sword, turned around and ran away. Her hair was flying, her skirt sleeves were dancing, and she was like a colorful cloud, slowly walking away.

The chief test master said loudly: "Ji Ruochen wins! The next competition begins!"

Another disciple came down to the field, clasped his fists and saluted Ji Ruochen, and called him "Senior Brother Ruochen" several times before Ji Ruochen, who was in a trance, heard him. When Ji Ruochen turned around, he saw that although this disciple was polite and polite, there was a hint of disdain in his eyes.

There seemed to be sarcasm in the smile.

"Please show mercy to Senior Brother Ruochen..." the disciple said. But there was no hint of humility in his words. As he said this, he took out a spell. The spell was dark yellow in color, indicating that it was made from heavenly secret grass.

The finished high-grade talisman paper is used as the base, and the talismans on it are quite complicated. At a glance, you can tell that it is a powerful Tianxin talisman.

Ji Ruochen's heart was in turmoil. Seeing how arrogant and hostile this man was, he immediately became angry. He didn't say much at the moment. After returning the gift, he took out a talisman from his arms.

The talisman paper is golden in color with aqua blue outlines. It is covered with densely packed cinnabar talismans, and a dark red seal is stamped in the middle. Blood flows on the talisman's surface, and the light of fire is looming.

The disciple was shocked and immediately shouted: "Senior Brother Ruochen, please show mercy!..."

A flash of fire flashed.

"Ji Ruochen wins!" The Taoist Master sang loudly first, then walked to Ji Ruochen and whispered: "Ruochen, you'd better not use these golden talismans of the Supreme Emperor. This is just the annual test of the Taiqing Holy Realm.

!”

Ji Ruochen looked at the charred disciple who was being carried out of the field and said dullly: "Can't the Emperor's Golden Talisman be used? That's fine, I also have a dozen Shouxu Jade Talismans."

The chief examiner was startled again and said hurriedly: "This is useless! If you touch it, you may be seriously injured!"

This time, it was Ji Ruochen's turn to be surprised and asked: "Why, a disciple in the true saint realm can't even stand the Void Jade Talisman?"

The chief examiner cursed secretly, thinking that you are favored by the real people, so of course you will be able to protect the body. How can other young disciples be covered in body-protecting magic weapons like you?

But he still had a calm smile on his face, stroking his beard and saying: "Ruochen, I know you are uniquely talented in talismans, but just to be on the safe side, you'd better just use the Tianxin Zhengtalisman."

Ji Ruochen nodded in agreement. But when the next opponent entered the stage, his face was as cold as frost, and his body was filled with murderous aura.

During this year's test, Ji Ruochen was injured in seventeen places, but he was still invincible.

After the annual exam, Ji Ruochen had a lot more magic weapon materials, and the courtyard with three houses was already a bit crowded.

At the end of the first month of the first month, Ji Ruochen was ordered by Master Ziyang to deliver a small box of medicinal materials to Master Yuxuan of Danyuan Palace. Master Yuxuan was very happy after receiving the medicine and simply asked one of his disciples to take Ji Ruochen around the entire Danyuan Palace.

Needless to say, the waterside pavilions of Danyuan Palace are gorgeous and exquisite. There are many strange birds and animals that Ji Ruochen can’t name wandering leisurely beside the flowers and rocks. This is the most unique thing about Danyuan Palace. Compared with these strange animals,

He was also a little overwhelmed by the young female disciples walking back and forth.

After a brief tour of Ruoda's Danyuan Palace, it was already dusk. Ji Ruochen said goodbye to Master Yuxuan and returned to Taichang Peak alone. However, when he visited Danyuan Palace this time, Hanyan was in retreat to clean up.

Xiu, so we couldn't meet each other.

Ji Ruochen felt a little disappointed in his heart. It was the first time he went to Danyuan Palace, and he accidentally walked on a side road. He wandered around and couldn't find the door, and instead walked deeper and deeper into Danyuan Palace. He walked for a while.

Realizing that something was wrong, I was about to find a disciple of Danyuan Palace nearby to ask for directions. Suddenly I smelled a faint fragrance in my nose. The fragrance was a bit strange, like a kind of floral fragrance, but it was floating in strands, and it was different from the ordinary floral fragrance.

Different. Moreover, the fragrance seemed to be conscious, retreating from Ji Ruochen's body as soon as it was touched, then avoiding Ji Ruochen from a distance and continuing to explore behind him.

At this moment, a white shadow flashed on the road in the distance, and a small beast that looked like a raccoon or a cat crossed the road. Following a wisp of fragrance, it rushed into a garden like lightning. In an instant, all the strange fragrances were gone.

He quickly retracted it and saw that the source was in the garden where the little beast disappeared. Before Ji Ruochen could understand it, the little beast's vitality suddenly disappeared.

Ji Ruochen was startled and ran along the road to the garden, looking around blankly.

On the other side of the garden is a row of side rooms, which look like the residences of the disciples of Danyuan Palace. The garden is full of exotic flowers and trees, there are many rockeries, and there is a pool of clear water, which is very elegant.

Under a rockery, a man in green clothes was standing, holding the little beast in his hand. The little beast didn't move, as if sleeping. However, Ji Ruochen's spiritual sense was so sharp that he already knew that the little beast was dead. I didn't know.

Why, the man's figure was blurry and he couldn't see clearly.

The man met Ji Ruochen's eyes, and suddenly let out a sigh. Ji Ruochen's eyes flashed, and then his neck tightened, as if he was being held by an iron hoop, and it turned out that he had been lifted up by the man with one hand.
To be continued...
