Chapter 6: The Sun God Palace
She is always so outstanding, always surpassing everyone. Fortunately, this time I kept pace with her.
Ning Feng swallowed a mouthful of saliva
Soul Realm
Ning Feng had previously been in a state between dreaming and waking, and did not miss the words of several people at the previous location. At this moment, his mind was clear, and a flood of information surged in, making everything comprehensible.
It is also quite good to have thirty people, which is not worse than in previous years
Upon learning of the existence of deities and demons, how can one bear to live a mundane life
The middle-aged man in a yellow robe clapped his hands and laughed, pointing at the young man as he said: "This child is indeed fortunate, as at the last moment his spirit became clear, cleansing himself and emerging, thus gaining entry into the sect"
What?!
As soon as the words fell, Ning Feng slowly opened his eyes
My experience in the soul realm does not emphasize perseverance, but rather prevention, preventing me from leaving
I have not been cast aside by her
The mountain lords of the Sun God Palace each displayed a drastic change in expression. The Soul Realm has existed within the Sun God Palace for no less than ten thousand years, and every generation of disciples of the palace must venture into it. Never has such a situation occurred before
As soon as the white-robed elder finished speaking, the remaining mountain lords had yet to react when an unexpected change suddenly occurred
The scene before us is the most crucial test for the Sun God Sect in selecting disciples
rumbling
The old man in the white robe was utterly shocked, his slightly hunched body suddenly came to a halt, and his breath surged uncontrollably, like a solar storm ravaging the palace
Ning Feng was determined to seek immortality, and there was a father who, although he seemed unremarkable in the eyes of the world, was willing to risk everything and unreasonably believe in and support his son. Finally, at the age of thirteen, through a twist of fate, he entered the Sun God Palace.
Inside the palace, an aged voice resounded
The vibration does not originate from the outside, but rather occurs from within
Anyone who can endure the trials of the Soul Realm and awaken within the stipulated time will be considered to have passed the Divine Cleansing Tribulation
There is another one
How is it ... ... different ... ...
Ning Feng quickly got up, bowed respectfully, and walked towards Chen Danyi and the others.
In his eyes, there was a moment of bewilderment, which was soon transformed into clarity
Isn't this just a dream of yellow millet?
Brush!
Ning Feng was taken aback, and at the same time, his heart skipped a beat; an inexplicable flutter made his heart nearly stop.
Beside the old man in the white robe, a little girl who looked only about eight or nine years old responded while yawning
The time is approaching.
It turns out that the words spoken in the realm of souls were indeed inspired by my own feelings
Indeed, what you say is correct, Senior Brother. There is almost only a moment or two left before the Sun God Stone will lose its brilliance, it should come to an end here
Under the gaze of countless eyes, the realm of souls continuously collapses, sinking towards the center, with countless colorful and magnificent yet utterly meaningless scenes flashing by within it
Immediately, whether it was the few people at the front or the young men and women standing by the side, all turned their attention towards it
It was not for the imposing presence displayed by the old man in the white robe, but rather, something had emerged in his mind...
In an instant, the young man trembled all over, but soon his expression calmed down, exuding a sense of tranquility as if he had traversed through all tribulations.
Remarkably, the scholar Ning Feng within the realm of souls has no recollection of these memories
The most central part of the Soul Realm is the Nine Aperture Stone
At this moment, he is sitting cross-legged on the ground, with his hands naturally resting on his knees, and a white light is pulsating between his brows and eyes, as if he is breathing.
Suddenly, a beam of white light burst forth from the奇光 vortex, directly striking the center of the young man's brow
The so-called Soul Cleansing Tribulation refers to a secret ritual presided over by the elders of the sect, in which participating disciples immerse their souls into the Soul Realm
This is what it means to be destined
Their past three years of external experiences were not in vain, yet they are destined to be unrelated to the top sect, the Sun God Palace
In addition to the dozens of young men and women, there are more than twenty youths of seemingly the same age standing nearby, each displaying a look of lingering fear mixed with uncontainable joy
Apart from the old man in the white robe and the young girl, the others did not interject, but instead gazed towards the center of the palace
Why? Why is it different?
The young girl in white attire, with a round face, had just a moment ago shown a look of concern, but in the instant their eyes met, her small face became stern, displaying an expressionless demeanor
There are dozens of young boys and girls sitting cross-legged, some trembling all over, some frowning tightly, and some laughing foolishly... They are all peculiar and indescribable, with the only commonality being that all of them have their eyes tightly closed
Sixteen years ago, on a certain day, he was in a technologically advanced place called Earth before going to sleep; upon waking, he became an infant in Qianzhou, born with innate knowledge
Ning Feng could no longer maintain his composure, and his expression changed dramatically
After three years of hard work, fetching water and chopping firewood, solidifying the foundation, I finally reached the most crucial stage an hour ago: the Washing of the Spirit, the tempering of the Soul Realm
What I have experienced is completely different from what they have experienced
They certainly deserve joy
Since they awakened from the realm of their souls, they have become the inner disciples of the first sect of Qianzhou, the Sun God Palace, one of the seven sects of the world, which is a great honor
I never expected that this would be a marvelous world filled with immortals and demons, where one can attain eternal life and traverse the azure void
Nine Orifices Stone
In this world filled with deities and ghosts, the Four Books and Five Classics are only suitable for wiping one's bottom, what is the point of studying them
After three years of interaction, she is the girl he likes the most
I am too, but later I joined the Black Crow Army, it was truly difficult, several times I almost couldn't hold on.
At the foremost part of the palace, beneath the feet of towering statues several zhang high, an old man in a white robe spoke softly
To outsiders, Ning Feng's footsteps merely paused for a moment, and not even this slight change was noticed by anyone; only Chen Danyi seemed to sense something and cast a glance at him.
Ning Feng forcefully calmed his mind. Having lived for over twenty years in his previous life, plus sixteen years in Qianzhou and more than a decade in the Soul Realm, he was not an inexperienced youth who had never seen the world. He understood well that unusual occurrences often harbor hidden dangers, so how could he dare to reveal himself easily
As he spoke, the old man's gaze was fixed ahead, where a crystal, as large as a watermelon, floated, continuously emitting a bright milky white glow
Indeed, I have heard the elders of the sect mention it before. How did that saying go? It is as follows: Only the highly intelligent and the utterly foolish can remain steadfast and unyielding. Our soul realm assessment is designed to temper and manifest our will. Only those with unwavering determination and resilience can cleanse their spirit within the stipulated time.
It is evident that what they have experienced is the same matter.
He is Ning Feng, and he is also not Ning Feng
Suddenly
Qianzhou, Tiandu Mountain, Sun God Palace
The palace shook violently, causing everyone to lose their footing. The young men, including Ning Feng, were caught off guard and all fell to the ground.
Ning Feng and the other youths were swept away by the overwhelming force, each of them involuntarily flying backward until they crashed into the corners of the palace.
At the beginning, Ning Feng thought this was a world similar to that of ancient Earth, contemplating the pursuit of literature and poetry, as well as envisioning a life of indulgence and idleness as a wealthy young man.
Ning Feng could not be more clear; in the soul realm tribulation he experienced, there were the Great Anger Zen Master, the Sword Immortal, the Lake Maiden, and even a nest of mice that were invited to teach in the middle of the night, yet there were conspicuously no White Crow Soldiers or Black Crow Soldiers
For no apparent reason, he felt that this change seemed to be related to him
This is ... ...
Senior Brother Zhangmen, look!
Ning Feng's pupils constricted, and at the very center of the Soul Realm, in the place where the distortion was the most severe, he saw something that was incredibly familiar.
At the moment the mutation occurred, everyone present immediately knew the source of it
As I drew closer, the voices of excited youths, barely contained, faintly reached my ears
The youth who captured everyone's attention appeared to be only around sixteen or seventeen years old, exuding an aura of cleanliness, as if he were clean to the point of transparency
... ... ''
Ning Feng raised his head to glance at the Sun God Stone, which had awakened less than a breath ago. The stone was dim, its three years' worth of accumulated sunlight completely dissipated.
Ning Feng reminisced about the experiences of the past more than ten years, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face
They are either in the prime of their lives or have reached an advanced age, standing casually yet exuding an air of authority, showcasing their extraordinary presence
The entire palace was shaking incessantly, as if a giant outside were grasping it with both hands, intending to lift it and throw it away.
In the realm of the soul, that strange vortex of light twists into indescribable shapes, with the peculiar light within it rotating at varying speeds. Gazing upon it for just a moment can induce dizziness and a sensation of nausea.
What is going on
Ning Feng raised his head to take a glance, and standing beside him, there were only twenty-nine people who had emerged from the wash of the divine, making a total of thirty when including himself
Even the most extraordinary individuals cannot help but be momentarily taken aback by it
In the brief span of a single sentence, the brilliance of the crystal stone dimmed slightly, resembling a candle flame in the wind, poised to extinguish at any moment
Ning Feng smiled ever more cleanly and brilliantly
Awaken these children
Three years ago, there were three thousand six hundred people in the outer gate, yet only one hundred have managed to reach this point
His gaze swept over the young individuals who had arrived before him, ultimately coming to rest on a girl standing before the crowd
It is like this
The Divine Washing Robbery
The magnificent architecture stands tall at the summit of Tiandu Mountain, with copper as its bricks and red jade as its railings. The palace is imposing and solemn, overlooking the surrounding mountains
I wondered how it was that Su Tingyu, the pipa fish, and the lake girl all had such charming round faces; it turns out that one's daily thoughts are indeed tied to one's soul.
A middle-aged man in a yellow robe suddenly spoke up, simultaneously pointing a finger at a young boy who was sitting cross-legged on the ground
It is indeed too obvious
At the summit, the mountain lords of the Sun God Palace continued their discussions
The old man in the white robe stroked his beard and nodded, recalling, "This young man is named Ning Feng, right? He should be the last disciple of the Divine Palace of this generation"
It turns out ... ...
The time has come
Three thousand take thirty, not a single one remains out of a hundred, the difficulty of the immortal path reveals its clues from the very first step
Ning Feng gazed at the endlessly swirling vortex of strange light, as if he could see countless scenes through the vortex, with over a decade of time flowing by within it
The scholar, burdened with poverty, traverses thousands of mountains and rivers, encountering countless deities, fairies, and demons, seeking a single teaching yet unable to obtain it; all of this is not real
The old man in the white robe nodded gently at Ning Feng and said, "Ning Feng, you may rise and stand to the side."
What is the situation?
In addition to the two individuals, there are still seven or eight others standing at the foot of the statue, gazing at the Sun God stone
He observed intently; those young individuals, even without any means of communication, expressed their understanding of the experiences of those who had traversed the realm of the soul, all with expressions of deep agreement, showing no surprise at the discussions of those individuals
A simple sentence determined the fate of the remaining seventy youths
Chen Xiwei
In front of a group of young people sitting cross-legged, there is a vortex the size of a doorway, formed by the gathering and swirling of strange light, known as the Soul Realm
It is done
This time it was truly a stroke of luck; I nearly could not hold on in the Soul Realm, and I almost failed to be selected as a White Crow soldier
Ning Feng's footsteps came to an involuntary halt, especially upon seeing that more than twenty young people had mostly been prompted to discuss, quietly sharing their experiences in the realm of souls.
The old man in the white robe waved his sleeve, and the brilliant sunlight burst forth from within, enveloping the Sun God Stone and drawing it into his sleeve
This thought had just emerged in his mind when, in the next moment, the soul crystal, which everyone believed would exist forever, as if it had been there since time immemorial, vanished without a trace, like a fleeting dream or an ephemeral illusion
Rumbling rumbling—rumbling rumbling——
Now ... ...
