Chapter 29 The elders’ praise, Xuan Zhen!

Chapter 29 The elders’ praise, Xuan Zhen!
Inside the threshold of Stepping Immortal Courtyard, many young people from all over the country were taught a lesson by the two Taoists from Yuhua Sect before they actually set foot into the immortal gate.

Chen Zheng, a person who did not even participate in the assessment, was called by the two Taoists even as his junior brother.

That was so intimate.

And Chen Zheng will be given the first assessment when he joins the queue.

Yuhuamen, too realistic.

"Hey, why wasn't it Senior Sister Fang Qingxue who recommended me to take the outer sect assessment?"

"This man was able to fight across levels and kill a demon equivalent to the ninth level of the physical body. He is so cruel. No wonder he is favored by the fairy of Yuhua Sect. I must never offend him in the future..."

Everyone had mixed feelings and sighed, looking at Chen Zheng with envy, wishing they could take his place.

"Thank you, two brothers."

Chen Zheng ignored the various looks from everyone, put away the snow sign given by Fang Qingxue, and smiled faintly at the two Taoists in front of him who were trying their best to please him.

He was not surprised at all.

Whether in the secular world or in the spiritual world, it is common to flatter the powerful and look down on the weak, and to treat people with different tastes according to their status.

It’s just that in the secular world it may be expressed more tactfully, while in the world of cultivation where great power is attributed to oneself it is more direct.

Moreover, these two Taoists look arrogant, but they are just relying on the reputation of Yuhua Sect. In fact, they are weak inside and their cultivation level is only at the secret realm of physical body.

Fang Qingxue is in the secret realm of supernatural powers and is a true disciple. His status is much higher than those two and he can be on equal footing with the elders.

Strictly speaking, the true disciples of Yuhua Sect are even more respected than the elders.

Because there are only more than a hundred true disciples, but there are four or five thousand elders.

There is also a right that the elders cannot match, and that is the qualification to compete for the position of the headmaster in the future.

"We are all brothers, it's only natural."

"Junior Brother Chen, please come with us. I will go and explain the situation to the examiner and let you enter as soon as possible."

The two Taoists smiled like two chrysanthemums and enthusiastically led Chen Zheng into the Stepping Immortal Courtyard.

As for the others, I didn't even bother to look at them.

Don’t you have feet?
Won't you catch up?

Seeing this scene, everyone felt resentful in their hearts and followed with their heads down.

Soon, Chen Zheng and everyone followed the two Taoists through a winding corridor, passed rockery, lakes, gardens and other things, and came to a vast hall.

This hall is very spacious, with a length and width of three thousand steps, and can accommodate ten thousand people.

When people stand in it, they feel insignificant.

In the center of the hall stood an old man with drooping eyelids, white hair and beard, and a look of immortality.

"Junior Brother Chen, that is our Yuhua Sect's outer sect chief examiner, Elder Ma."

The two Taoists said something to Chen Zheng, then quickly walked to the old man's side, bowed respectfully, and whispered something.

"Oh, Fang Qingxue's people?"

The old man opened his eyes upon hearing this and looked towards Chen Zheng with a serious expression.

"Meet Elder Ma."

Chen Zheng clasped his fists in response, without lingering on Elder Ma for too long, and instead looked towards a dark door at the end of the hall.

Swish!
There was a pair of red eyes in the two holes on the door, staring at him, revealing a cruel look, as if they wanted to eat him in one bite.

Chen Zheng knew that the owner of those eyes was a divine puppet, whose prototype was an underground demon.

It should be noted that in the Xuanhuang world, there are three common demons: heaven, earth, and man.

He had seen the demon when he was on the Forty-nine Islands.

The underground demons are the demons living in the underground world.

The intelligence of demons is similar to that of humans, but they are extremely bloody and brutal. They often emerge from deep cracks in the ground that connect to the underground to burn, kill and loot. They are a major concern for many dynasties.

Of course, immortal sects like the Yuhua Sect would often assign tasks to their disciples to slay demons and eliminate evil in the many dynasties under their command.

The divine puppet inside the sect was captured by the disciples of Yuhua Sect and brought back to the sect. The elders wiped out its mind, leaving only the killing instinct in the puppet.

He is also the opponent in everyone's assessment.

as predicted.

Elder Ma raised his hand and pointed at the door deep in the hall, and said loudly: "I believe you have heard about the content of my Yuhua Sect's assessment. Yes, it is a divine puppet refined by an underground demon. As long as you defeat it, you will become an outer sect disciple!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

"The outer sect assessment of Yuhua Sect is actually about defeating a powerful puppet made by an underground demon?"

"The underground demons are invulnerable to swords and guns and are extremely cruel. No wonder those who failed the assessment and returned were either missing arms or legs. They were all trembling with fear and kept it a secret."

"This test is too difficult. Someone might even die..."

Everyone's faces changed, turning visibly pale, and some even considered giving up.

Most of them are children of aristocratic families from the major dynasties under the Yuhua Sect, and there are even quite a few princes and princesses, otherwise they would not be able to get a recommendation.

Correspondingly, many people were just like Xiao Shi, who had been spoiled since childhood. When faced with a ferocious demon like the Divine Puppet, they could not help but feel fear.

What if you lose your life while fighting with the divine puppet, wouldn’t it be an unjust death?
There is still plenty of wealth, beautiful wives and concubines waiting for them to enjoy at home.

"Humph!" Seeing everyone shrinking back, Elder Ma said coldly: "Do you think it's so easy to step into the immortal path?"

"Let me tell you, the way to immortality is to be fearless in heart, to kill all demons, both inner and outer demons! It is also a way to overcome all obstacles and seek the true self!"

Elder Ma's eyes were as bright as lightning, sweeping across the crowd and finally landing on Chen Zheng.

He said in a friendly manner: "Chen Zheng, you were introduced by Fang Qingxue. Now stand in the middle and take the first test. Set an example for this group of people."

"it is good."

Chen Zheng did not hesitate and took a few steps to the big circle in front of Elder Ma.

"Open the door."

Elder Ma snapped his fingers, and a beam of light shot out from his fingertips and shot into the dark portal in the distance.

Wow!

The fog that blocked the dark portal suddenly dissipated.

Chen Zheng looked over and saw a humanoid creature standing inside the door. It was about ten feet tall, with black scales all over its body, like a shell. It had two high horns on its head, fangs and a wide mouth, claws on both hands like hooks, and bloodshot eyes.

This is the underground demon.

Swish!
As soon as the demon saw Chen Zheng, a bloodthirsty look flashed in his eyes. His muscles and bones made crackling sounds, and he jumped with his legs, rushing out as fast as lightning.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

While still in mid-air, the Earth Demon let out strange howls from its mouth, like devilish sounds penetrating into the brain, making many people's scalps numb and their heads dizzy.

"It's noisy."

Chen Zheng frowned, took a step forward, and slapped the aggressive demon with his palm.

boom!
The demon exploded on the spot.

"it is good!"

Elder Ma nodded in satisfaction and gave Chen Zheng an admiring look: "You are so neat and tidy. You are not affected by the magic sound at all. You are very good. From now on, you will be my outer disciple of Yuhua Sect."

"You are too kind, senior." Chen Zheng smiled back and returned to his original position.

People were not surprised that he could kill the divine puppet with one blow, after all, they knew that he had even killed the Ninth Heaven Demon.

"Next person……"

Under the chairmanship of Elder Ma, the assessment continued.

Another powerful puppet jumped out from the door.

One young man after another came on stage.

Someone was injured and failed, but was rescued in time by Elder Ma and luckily managed to save his life.

There are also people who are quite strong and possess magical weapons, and they pass the test smoothly.

Many people were so frightened that they cried and told Elder Ma that they wanted to withdraw and not take the exam.

"Get out of here!"

Elder Ma looked grim and kicked these cowards out of the hall.

"Alas, it would be great if there were more people as talented as this boy."

Elder Ma couldn't help but look at Chen Zheng who was being taken away from the hall by two Taoists, and sighed in his heart.

The number of people who pass the assessment is related to his "performance".

Even among the outer disciples he recruited, if anyone could cultivate to the secret realm of magical powers and become a true disciple, the great elder in the Yuhua Palace might reward him with a "Yin Yang Longevity Pill"!
Unfortunately, ever since Fang Qingxue appeared, the quality of the outer disciples who have recently joined the sect has become increasingly poor.

I just wonder if the disciple named Chen Zheng can bring him a surprise?
Estimated to be hanging.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye.

The assessment is over.

Less than 10% of the candidates passed.

And Chen Zheng, under the earnest guidance of the two Taoists, had already received the necessities distributed by the sect to disciples, left the Stepping Immortal Courtyard, and came to the "Woxian Courtyard".

Woxianyuan is very large, with thousands of independent courtyards inside.

In addition, there are Liuxianyuan, Qingxianyuan, Jingxianyuan, Qianxianyuan, etc. in Yuhua City, which are all residences of outer disciples.

"Junior Brother Chen, this courtyard is the residence we have chosen for you. Please bear with it for now and change it after you become an inner sect disciple."

"Thank you, two brothers."

"Haha, Junior Brother Chen, you are too polite. We will leave first. As long as you do as we say, you will soon become an inner disciple with your strength. It is not impossible for you to win a place in the next Mountain and River Ranking Competition and receive rewards from the sect."

"By the way, Junior Brother Chen, my name is Yang Xuan, and his name is Yang Zhen. We are brothers."

The two Taoists brought Chen Zheng to a courtyard, talked for a few words, left their names, and then tactfully said goodbye and left.

Chen Zheng had just arrived and needed to adapt to and familiarize himself with many things. Although the two brothers were eager to make friends with him, they could not disturb him too much.

Otherwise, it will be too much and become annoying.

 The recommended PK failed, so miserable
