Chapter 5 A New World

Zhan Nianchuan stepped forward and gently placed his palm on the crystal ball.

Under his hopeful gaze, the entire sphere began to glow dimly.

After a while, Senior Brother Chen's face began to look ugly, and then his face began to twitch, muttering to himself: "Gold, wood, water, fire, earth, low-grade, low-grade, low-grade, low-grade, low-grade... puff!"

"I have never seen this kind of spiritual root that is so rubbish!"

The woman in green was also surprised. She glanced at Zhan Nianchuan with her bright eyes, shook her head and stopped paying attention.

Senior Brother Chen looked Zhan Nianchuan up and down, "How old are you for such a big man?"

"Fifteen." Zhan Nianchuan answered honestly.

Senior Brother Chen was angry and his eyes were cold, "Don't you know that our Xuantian Sect only recruits children aged twelve and below? Are you trying to fish in troubled waters!"

"Master Immortal, please don't be angry. This boy is here to do the handyman work." Zhan Nianchuan's posture was very low. He understood from the old man's words that it was impossible to be a disciple. Chance.

"A handyman?" Senior Brother Chen was stunned, and the woman in green was also greatly surprised, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Menial servants are the lowest form of existence in the sect. They can only work non-stop, with almost no opportunities for advancement. There are not many people to recruit in the mortal world. Generally, only the poorest families will send their children to them. Go and get some gold and silver.

However, when they saw that Zhan Nianchuan's face was dusty and his coarse linen clothes were torn and stained with blood, like a beggar, they understood that he was probably a child from a poor family who wanted to join the Xuantian Sect to make a living.

"It's okay to be a handyman, but you don't have any resources from the sect to be a handyman. You can only get paid by doing tasks, and your qualifications are too poor. It's basically impossible to become an outer disciple." The old man heard that Zhan Nianchuan only asked to do The handyman's expression softened and he made a few remarks.

"The boy is willing to work as a handyman and ask the immortal master to take him in." Zhan Nianchuan answered without hesitation.

As long as he could enter the Xuantian Sect, he would have a chance for revenge. As for being a handyman, he didn't care.

"In that case, stand on my left side." Senior Brother Chen said coldly, throwing a small burden to Zhan Nianchuan.

Zhan Nianchuan breathed a sigh of relief, took the baggage, and walked quickly to the left side of Senior Brother Chen.

When I opened the bag and took a look, I saw hundreds of taels of silver inside. It seemed that the money had been obtained by selling myself as a handyman.

In the end, there were only a dozen children left, and the test was quickly completed. Unexpectedly, among these more than ten children, another five spiritual roots appeared, but his qualifications were slightly better than Zhan Nianchuan. Three of the spiritual roots were middle-grade, and He also chose to work as a handyman.

"Hello, my name is Li Xiaoqiang." The child was very honest and thin, and timidly expressed his kindness to Zhan Nianchuan.

"Zhan Nianchuan." Sensing the nervousness of the children around him, Zhan Nianchuan smiled back.

At this point, the entire apprenticeship test has been completed. There are five people in total including Zhan Nianchuan, four men and one woman.

Zhan Nianchuan secretly lamented that there were nearly a thousand children in total, but only five had spiritual roots. The path to immortality was indeed elusive and difficult to find. Thinking of this, while feeling lucky, he couldn't help but feel deeply worried about his future.

The woman in green threw her red fairy sword, which quickly grew in size, and lightly jumped onto the sword. Her posture was agile and graceful, causing the crowd of onlookers to commotion and scream.

At this time, Senior Brother Chen turned to look at the five of them, and said calmly: "The fate of this world is over, and we say goodbye to the mortal world. I will take you back to the sect next. If you regret it, it's still too late."

After saying that, he pulled Lin Hongzhi onto the flying sword, and the other children slowly climbed onto the flying sword with the help of the woman in green.

"Stand still." Senior Brother Chen greeted, and the flying sword slowly rose in the envious eyes of everyone, hovered in the sky for a while, and then reached the horizon in a flash.

...

On the sword, Senior Brother Chen deliberately tested the children's nature, but did not release the protective essence. The strong wind above the flying sword scared the children so hard that their faces turned pale, and they lay on the flying sword and did not dare to get up.

Only Zhan Nianchuan looked calm, staring at the strange and magnificent scenery of the Xuantian Mountains below. The mountains were undulating and hundreds of rivers converged. This was the first time he personally felt the supreme power of the monks flying into the sky and escaping from the earth, which strengthened his belief in becoming an immortal and taking revenge.

Inspired by Zhan Nianchuan's indifference, Lin Hongzhi's face was full of fear, and he gritted his teeth and stood up. This made Senior Brother Chen nod secretly, this boy is extraordinary!

As for Zhan Nianchuan, Senior Brother Chen glanced at him casually. Although he had a good temperament, his qualifications were not ordinary. He was at the bottom of the sect and there was no need to pay attention to him.

As Lin Hongzhi stood up, Li Xiaoqiang also gritted his teeth, his legs trembling, and slowly stood up, side by side with Zhan Nianchuan, looking at the scenery below.

As for the other two children, they were lying on the flying sword and shivering, not daring to get up at all. After all, they were still half-grown children. The flying sword was flying thousands of feet high in the sky, and the sound of the whistling wind could be heard in their ears. All of this shocked them. Extremely afraid.

Seeing them like this, Senior Brother Chen frowned slightly and released his protective essence to create a barrier for them. The whistling sound of the air flow suddenly disappeared, which made the children relax slightly.

At this time, the woman in green chuckled and explained to them some things about Xuantian Sect to relieve their tension and pressure.

From her words, the five of them had a preliminary understanding of Xuantian Sect, and a corner of the mysterious world of immortality was revealed, which set off a storm in their hearts.

The Xuantian Mountains are actually just a corner of the Kunlun Mountains!

According to her, the Kunlun Mountains are vast and boundless, and Xuantian Sect is just a small sect at the outermost edge, which is not ranked among the sects in the entire Kunlun Mountains.

Xuantian Sect has been established for ten thousand years. There are seven inner and outer peaks. Among them, the inner peak Xuantian Peak is the main peak, which is the tallest and most majestic. The other six outer peaks are Lindan Peak, Qingya Peak, Chaoyang Peak, Tianwu Peak, Yunlong Peak, and Qingling Peak. The six outer peaks tightly surround the main peak.

The six outer peaks are responsible for recruiting and training outer disciples in the mortal world. Once the outer disciples break through the seventh level of Qi Condensation, they automatically become inner disciples and can enter the main peak. On weekdays, the inner and outer peaks do not interact closely.

This woman is called Tong Xi, and the white-bearded old man is her senior brother Chen Qizhi. They are all disciples of Lindan Peak. The peak master of their peak is Tong Dachuan, who is Tong Xi's father. Among the five people, except Zhan Nianchuan and Li Xiaoqiang, they will all be her junior brothers.

Hearing this, Zhan Nianchuan and Li Xiaoqiang looked at each other and saw the doubts in each other's eyes. Fortunately, Tong Xi then explained the reason, which made Zhan Nianchuan and Li Xiaoqiang feel disappointed.

"Miscellaneous servants do not belong to any peak. They are all managed by the Miscellaneous Servant Department. Don't be discouraged, you two still have a chance," she said, perhaps she felt that she was forcing comfort, and smiled unnaturally, "As long as you can cultivate to the third level of Qi Condensation within three years, and then pass the Six Peaks Selection, you can become an outer disciple and still be my junior brother."

Zhan Nianchuan and Li Xiaoqiang knew that there was little hope. This was obviously Tong Xi's comfort. They nodded silently, and Li Xiaoqiang's face fell directly.

"Three years?" Zhan Nianchuan was in a heavy mood. How could he cultivate to the third level of Qi Condensation in only three years?

What to do?
