As the empress who breaks off her engagement at the beginning, I choose the evil little black lotus.

Chapter 10 The second memory fragment 4000 words

Those who have won three games in a row will all be recorded. But someone like Su Yan, who shows his ability to completely crush his contemporaries, will actually be recruited by several holy places without even having to go through the cutscenes.

"Little friend, our Spring and Autumn Thousand Years Palace is willing to provide you with a volume of cultivation techniques of the fifth level of the Xuan level. A ninth level of the Xuan level spiritual beast, a ninth level of the Xuan level weapon, one hundred Earth Origin Pills, and ten cleaning techniques every month. Zhu Dan."

"Haha, you are so stupid. Our Tianshan Mountain Villa will double what they have."

"We at Qiansi Palace can also double the amount, and we can also betroth the daughter of the head to you."

As soon as Su Yan stepped off the ring, the group of Holy Land elders who were originally putting on airs, cherishing their feathers, and putting on airs suddenly changed their style completely.

It was as if they saw their own son, and everyone gathered around him.

Among them, the beautiful elder with big round eyes from Muhua Palace was also included.

She also wanted to fight for Muhua Palace.

However, when she heard the offers from several other holy places, she immediately gave up.

Their Muhua Palace has been declining since its leader explored the restricted area and did not return for a long time. Not to mention compared with the Jiuyou Sword Washing Pond of the Eighth-Rank Holy Land, there are also some gaps compared to the other three Ninth-Rank Holy Lands.

"Our Muhua Palace can also provide you with a fifth-grade Xuan-level cultivation technique, one hundred Earth Source Pills and ten Marrow Cleansing Pills every month. If you are interested in alchemy, I can give you all I have to teach you."

The voice of the elder, a beautiful woman with big round eyes, was so low that she hardly attracted any attention.

"In addition to what is mentioned above, our Spring and Autumn Thousand Years Palace can also provide three thousand source crystals every month."

"Haha, our Tianshan Mountain Villa will give you six thousand per month."

"We, Qiansi Palace, promise to help you capture a third-grade or higher Xuan-level spiritual beast after you break through to the Wuzong realm."

At this time, several holy places are still increasing their investment.

But in the next moment, all their voices were suddenly interrupted by a cold and solemn voice.

"Join Jiuyou Sword Cleansing Pool, and you will become a direct disciple of a quasi-king."

As soon as the one-armed elder of Jiuyou Sword Washing Pond said this, everything fell silent.

Several elders of the Ninth Grade Holy Land seemed to have turned into sculptures at this moment.

Quasi-king refers to the third level of Martial Lord Realm, the Martial Lord of Huagai Realm.

There are many dimensions to evaluate the grade of a holy land, but the most important one is the strength of the strongest person in the holy land.

Most of the time, the world of Shiyuan is still dominated by the weak and the strong. Without absolute strength, no matter how many resources there are, it cannot be defended.

The Ninth Grade Holy Land must have at least one Xiaozang Realm Martial Lord sitting in charge.

The Eighth Grade Holy Land must have at least one Great Tibetan Realm Martial Lord sitting in charge.

The seventh-grade Holy Land must have at least one Huagai Realm Martial Lord sitting in charge.

If the facts are true, as the one-armed elder said, the Jiuyou Sword Washing Pond will be the place where the people will advance from the eighth-grade holy land to the seventh-grade holy land in the near future.

After coming back to their senses, several elders from the Spring and Autumn Thousand Years Palace, Tianhuo Mountain Villa, and Qiansi Palace had completely given up the idea of ​​recruiting Su Yan.

Facing the eighth-grade holy land, they can still compete, but facing a future seventh-grade holy land, they are not even qualified to compete.

A fool knows how to choose.

The one-armed elder looked at Su Yan, waiting for his answer.He had no doubt that Su Yan would agree.

However, in full view of everyone, Su Yan went over to pick up Gu Nanyi, who had just finished competing for three rounds. Then, he directly bypassed the one-armed elder in Jiuyou Sword Washing Pool and headed towards the round-faced beauty in Muhua Palace behind. The elder woman walked away.

"Senior, Nan Yi and I want to become your disciple."

For a moment, everyone's expressions were frozen on their faces.

"You, aren't you making fun of me?"

The beautiful elder with a big round face from Muhua Palace asked stutteringly.Subconsciously, he pinched his thigh hard with his hand.

"Of course, we are serious."

Su Yan smiled, and there seemed to be so much in that smile that it actually made the round-faced beautiful woman and the elder stunned.

The face of the round-faced female elder in front of him seemed familiar yet unfamiliar to Su Yan.

Elder Lin Wanyue of Muhua Palace.

In his previous life, he performed mediocrely in the Holy Land assessment and was accepted by Lin Wanyue, while Shen Xiaoxue entered the Jiuyou Sword Cleansing Pond.

But in Su Yan's memory.Master Lin Wanyue has always looked like a man with white hair. Suddenly, seeing her face when she was young seems a bit strange.

Lin Wanyue was just a Xiaozang Realm Martial Master and a sixth-grade alchemist. She was mediocre in terms of both strength and alchemy skills.

But she can count Su Yan's few relatives in her past life apart from Su Beishan.

During the 500-year entanglement with Shen Xiaoxue, every time Su Yan was tired and discouraged, he would return to Muhua Palace, drink tea and play chess with Lin Wanyue, refine elixirs, plant medicine, and lick wounds.

Without such a safe haven, Su Yan might not have been able to survive for 500 years.

Even if he came back to life again, Su Yan would still remember that day, Lin Wanyue, who was already old and frail, with white hair, dared to stand in front of Shen Xiaoxue, who was already a sub-sage, and said to her:
"Although Su Yan's parents are gone, he still has me as his master. Even without you, Su Yan is not homeless."

"Master, in the last life, you had to worry too much because of the wrong people you trusted. In this life, I have found the right person, and I will never repeat the tragedy of my previous life." Su Yan grabbed Gu Nanyi's hand and said, He said silently in his heart.

But others who didn't know this naturally thought that Su Yan was crazy.

Several elders in the Holy Land shook their heads. Even Lin Wanyue herself and Lin Wuhua, the stern-eyed female elder from Muhua Palace, felt as if they were in a dream.

Not far away, Shen Xiaoxue looked at Su Yan in disbelief.

Suddenly, I felt that the Su Yan I had known for nearly 20 years seemed to be fake.

She really doesn't know what's going on in Su Yan's mind right now. It's really unreasonable.

However, at this moment, the familiar system prompt sounded again.

"Ding, the system prompts, please host and Su Yan join the same holy land. The reward will be memory fragments of Su Yan's previous life."

Shen Xiaoxue…

"Boy, you'd better think about it again, don't get carried away and regret it for the rest of your life."

The one-armed elder looked ugly, and Su Yan's choice was like a slap in the face to their Jiuyou Sword Washing Pool in public.

I will only regret one thing in my life, and other than that, I will never regret it a second time.Su Yan said lightly.

"I don't know what's wrong!" The one-eyed female elder of Jiuyou Sword Washing Pool who had been silent all this time spoke for the first time, but her voice was a bit colder than that of the one-armed elder.

She turned her gaze to Shen Xiaoxue who was not far away, and judged: "In the future, this woman's achievements will be far above yours."

In this world, choice is more important than talent at all times.

After finishing her words, she looked at Shen Xiaoxue and waved.

"Are you willing to join the Jiuyou Sword Cleansing Pool?"

The one-armed elder also looked at Shen Xiaoxue.

In their evaluation, although Shen Xiaoxue's level is slightly lower, her potential is no less than that of Su Yan.

However, under the spotlight, Shen Xiaoxue looked indifferent and said nothing.

This scene made the one-eyed female elder who was washing the sword in Jiuyou frown greatly.

The next moment, the three words that came out of Shen Xiaoxue's mouth were really like a bolt from the blue.

"I reject."

"What?" The expressions of the two elders of Jiuyou Sword Washing Pond at this moment were more than just wonderful.

Shen Xiaoxue took a deep breath, her chest rose and fell, and it could be seen that she was also very uneasy.

She looked at Lin Wanyue who was also stunned: "I also want to join Muhua Palace."

No one can imagine it, no one understands it.After Su Yan, Shen Xiaoxue also chose to join a ninth-grade holy land at the bottom.

This also includes Su Yan.Because in her previous life, Shen Xiaoxue clearly chose Jiuyou to wash the sword pool.

The butterfly effect of his rebirth was so great that it affected the empress's choice.

Su Yan shook his head.

What does Shen Xiaoxue want to do?He didn't care, as long as it didn't affect him and Gu Nanyi.

Among all the people, only Gu Nanyi knew clearly that Shen Xiaoxue came here for Su Yan.

The one-eyed female elder who was washing the sword in Jiuyou was so angry that she vomited blood on the spot, and the other one was not much better.

Lin Wanyue and the Diaoshaoyan female elder from Muhua Palace were naturally overjoyed.I really feel that the proverb that things like pie in the sky should be changed.

...

Before heading to the Holy Land, Su Yan and others first returned to Beishan City to say goodbye to their families.

Shen family, in Shen Xiaoxue's boudoir.

The system prompts that the task is completed. Do you want to use memory fragments now?

Shen Xiaoxue was lying on the bed wearing only a light gauze, looking at this system prompt indifferently.

Just for this reason, she joined a ninth-grade holy land that was at the bottom of the entire dynasty.

After taking a deep breath, Shen Xiaoxue chose to use it.

As her consciousness fell into a trance, the familiar boudoir in front of her disappeared and appeared above a barren mountain.

That's right, it's a barren mountain.

Shen Xiaoxue looked down and saw nothing on the entire mountain except a rough stone house.

There are very few birds and animals, let alone human beings.

At this moment, Shen Xiaoxue looked towards the sky as if aware of something. In the distance, a figure was flying towards here.

Soon, he saw it clearly.That turned out to be Lin Wanyue.

He just looks older than he is now.

Lin Wanyue landed in front of the stone house, looked at the closed door and sighed softly.

She stood quietly in the night for a moment, put down a bamboo basket in front of the door, and turned to leave.

But at this moment, the people in the stone house seemed to hear the movement outside, and the closed door was opened from the inside at this moment.

"master!"

A call came from inside the house.It's Su Yan.

Shen Xiaoxue looked at Su Yan.

At this time, he was obviously older than in the previous memory fragment.Most of his black hair has turned white, and he has a slovenly appearance. He does not look like the handsome young man from Kitayama City when he was young.

Shen Xiaoxue couldn't help but frown.

The master is here, why is it so silent?
Su Yan took Lin Wanyue into the house, and Shen Xiaoxue's consciousness also followed.

This place is like an alchemy room. The display is very monotonous. Except for an alchemy furnace, there are various single rooms scattered on the floor. There is not even a bed.

"You said you won't be able to get out of seclusion until you refine the barrier-breaking elixir. I don't dare to disturb you," Lin Wanyue said with a wry smile.

"I have already mastered the barrier-breaking pill."

When it came to the Barrier-Breaking Pill, Su Yan's tired eyes clearly gained a sparkle.

He took out a jade bottle from the Qiankun Ring and said happily to Lin Wanyue.

"With this barrier-breaking pill, Xiaoxue can successfully break through the mental barrier and reach the sub-sage realm."

"He is refining the barrier-breaking pill for me!"

At this moment, Shen Xiaoxue's pupils couldn't help but tremble violently.

She had heard that to break through from the Martial King realm to the Sub-Saint realm, one needs to go through 99 mental obstacles.

It can be said that almost all Martial Kings will be trapped in this step, unable to cross that threshold throughout their lives.

There is only one person in ten thousand who can break through 99 mental barriers on his own.

The Barrier-Breaking Pill is a pill that helps break through mental barriers.

However, although there are prescriptions for this kind of elixir, it is said that no alchemist in the world can refine it.

In his last life, Su Yan actually refined the barrier-breaking pill for him.

Even if Shen Xiaoxue doesn't know how to make alchemy, she knows that this process must be extremely difficult.

However, when she learned that her disciple was successful, Lin Wanyue's face did not look happy, but instead showed an unspeakable complexity.

After several breaths of silence, she sighed and spoke with difficulty.

"I came here this time to tell you that Shen Xiaoxue broke through 99 mental barriers on her own three days ago and became a sub-sage."

boom!The jade bottle containing the elixir fell to the ground.

Su Yan looked dazed, as if he had turned into a sculpture at this moment.

"Disciple, you have spent ten years working on this barrier-breaking pill. Now that things have come to this, it is time for you to start practicing again. If you don't break through to the Martial Master Realm, your lifespan will be short."

Shen family, in Shen Xiaoxue's boudoir.

The white toes moved slightly, and Shen Xiaoxue woke up leisurely.

This memory fragment ended with Lin Wanyue's last words.

However, Shen Xiaoxue sat blankly on the bed for a long time before coming back to her senses.

In order to refine the barrier-breaking elixir for her, Su Yan actually wasted ten years.

However, in the end, ten years of hard work was still in vain.

What kind of loss and despair it was.

At the same time, in the city lord's mansion.

Su Yan gave Gu Nanyi a lot of realm-breaking pills, as well as perfect quality earth source pills.

With these elixirs, coupled with the third-level Heavenly Skills Dahuangdong Tianjing, Gu Nanyi will not have any bottlenecks all the way to the magical realm.

As for the realm of supernatural powers, it cannot be broken through by relying solely on the realm-breaking pill.You need to enter the forbidden area of ​​​​the devil and collect the fragments of condensed magical powers.

This is also the reason why warriors join the Holy Land.

The holy land often holds the path to one or several demon restricted areas. If a casual cultivator without experience and inheritance secretly enters the restricted area, it will be a life-and-death situation.

Of course, people like Ouyang Zhefeng who have a father named Wu Zun are exceptions.

Gu Nanyi had received Su Yan's teachings several times, and at this time, her cultivation had reached the level of the Xuanfu realm. After returning to her own small courtyard, she took another realm-breaking pill and broke through to the realm of enlightenment. .

However, neither Su Yan nor Gu Nanyi noticed that the Breaking Realm Pill that Gu Nanyi took at this time was still the version of the omniscient old man.

There was nothing unusual about Su Yan taking this realm-breaking pill.

Although Gu Nanyi said that she could suddenly hear Shen Xiaoxue's heartbeat, she didn't associate it with the special realm-breaking pill.

So, just as Gu Nanyi broke through to the enlightenment stage, her eyes were in a trance.

The next moment, her consciousness appeared on a barren mountain.

In front of him was a house with a closed door.

Just when she was at a loss, she saw Lin Wanyue flying from a distance, putting down the bamboo basket, and the door opened, revealing Su Yan's figure.
