Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 166
Qilin Cliff is located on the top of Kunlun Mountain. Legend has it that it was transformed from the body of the fallen Qilin ancestor.

On the edge of the cliff, a huge stone monument stands majestically.

The stele does not record the names of the people who have made great contributions in the past dynasties of Kunlun, only two lines of writing are faintly visible:
"When a unicorn steps on auspicious clouds, it is hard to get rid of it in the world."

Because the age is too long, the author of the two lines of characters is rarely known, and the source can be traced back to a long time ago.

Yuanshi Tianzun, the former master of elucidation, summoned all the spirits of the heavens on Qilin Cliff to explain the Hunyuan Dao and fruit, and educate the common people.Today, it is still a quiet and peaceful poetic scenery, the difference is that there is a bit more copper stink.

Su Ji held a wooden sign with "Nine Nine" engraved on it; Niu Zhu also had a wooden sign with "One Hundred" engraved on it.The serial number on the wooden board represents the ranking of the "Bay Test", and only those who have this wooden board are eligible to participate in the Qilin Yun Test.

When the two of them followed Daoist Huang Niu over the mountains and ridges to Qilin Cliff, there was already a sea of ​​people there.

Su Ji first saw Yin Jiuyou and Yun Yi talking and laughing like no one else, so he didn't bother him.Except for these two familiar faces, the rest are a group of unfamiliar registered disciples.

When all the disciples saw the three from Shanzhen Pavilion, they couldn't help laughing, and started discussing:

"Hey! Brothers, look! The three chefs are here!"

"This year, the iron trees are blooming and the horses are growing horns, and the cooks are here to compete!"

"I would like to see their weapons, is it a kitchen knife or a rice shovel?"

"Guess which one is Niu Zhu who was promoted by Master Chan?"

"I think it's a little fat, a little short..."

"No, no! That kid looks stupid, I think it should be the one next to him!"

When the disciples saw Taoist Huang Niu leading the two disciples, it was as if they saw a monkey showman leading two monkeys.Su Ji and Niu Zhu didn't know the reason, but Daoist Huang Niu knew it all too well.

Among the registered disciples participating in the Qilin Yun Examination this year, Chuanyin Pavilion has the largest number of students, with a total of 82 disciples shortlisted; Two disciples, Su Ji and Niu Zhu, were shortlisted.

Although there are only two people, this is already the largest number of finalists in the history of Shanzhen Pavilion.In the past, no one in Shanzhen Pavilion had ever participated in the Qilinyun Examination, because Shanzhen Pavilion did not teach as many spells as Chuanyin Pavilion and Jingxin Pavilion, so even if they could pass the "Baby Examination" and "Written Examination", they would definitely not be able to in the end. Pass the "martial arts test".

The elders of Shanzhen Pavilion are all selected internally, so their status is far lower than that of other elders selected through the Qilin Yun test.

Even so, Daoist Huang Niu was honored to be able to bring two disciples up to the Qilin Cliff today, and he felt extremely honored. When walking, he raised his neck higher than usual, as if he had already ignored the success or failure of the two disciples.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the ears of everyone, and immediately a figure appeared in the crowd, stirring up a cloud of dust.

All the disciples felt that it was difficult to breathe, and they could not help but retreat three steps away, especially those disciples of Chuanyin Pavilion who had keen perception, who were already oppressed by the momentum of the comers and couldn't breathe.

Although Su Ji didn't have such a strong reaction, he already felt the powerful aura brought by that figure.The strange thing is that the sense of breath made Su Ji feel inexplicably familiar, and even felt that he had seen that person somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The only thing Su Ji could be sure of now was that what appeared in front of him was the "that person" that Jiang Ling mentioned yesterday.That person's threat to Jiang Ling's becoming a disciple was even greater than that of Guo Han, who came from a famous family.

Regarding the identity of that person, Jiang Ling mentioned a little bit.It is said that he is a disciple of Taoist Tubie in Feiyun Cave, Jialong Mountain. "Earth turtle" is a kind of hard-shelled insect. The name "earth turtle Taoist" sounds a bit cut-off, but in fact he is a master of education with good roots.

Taoist Tubie's master is the grandson of Juliu, one of the Twelve Immortals of Yuxu. Disciple, naturally has a deep connection with Kunlun Mountain.

In contrast, Jiang Ling, as an outsider of unknown origin, obviously suffered a lot in terms of background.

Su Ji took a closer look, and saw that the man was covered in black: black armor, black pants, black boots, black gauntlets, and a black ghost-faced helmet. The whole body was shining with black oil. Big ants standing up.

That person's appearance was hidden in the ghost-faced helmet, really like a big soil turtle shrunk in its shell.Leaving aside his aura, his body odor alone is enough to overwhelm a large number of opponents.He exuded a strange stench, like the pungent smell emitted by insects defending their enemies, which made people have to stay away.

All the disciples held their noses one after another, and slowly backed away centered on that person, gradually spreading out in a circle.

The top of the cliff fell into a continuous silence, and time passed quietly in the silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Niu Zhu suddenly yelled, breaking the quiet atmosphere around him.

"Brother Bai! Look at the sky!"

Su Ji looked for Niu Zhu, and saw a huge rock with a flat top floating in the misty clouds.

Daoist Huang Niu looked up and introduced: "That's the Chuanyunyan in Kunlun Mountain. After cultivating to a certain level, monks can drive people across the stone and use the mysterious and clear energy to control the huge rock to travel thousands of miles a day. Can send distinguished guests to Kunlun. It seems that the elders of Chanjiao have arrived."

The giant Chuanyunyan fell from the sky like a colossus. Su Ji looked up at the sky, and the scene in front of him was quite shocking.

After falling from the sky, Chuanyunyan slowly stopped at the edge of Qilin Cliff, like a suspended viewing platform.

Looking around with his extraordinary eyesight, Su Ji saw many figures standing on the Chuanyun Rock. Among them were twelve white-robed veterans with their eyes closed and resting their minds. The leader was an old man with half black and half white hair.

Su Ji recognized the old man at a glance, it was Chai Song whom he met in Guo Han's attic that day.

Chai Song looked at the distant sky, glanced at the disciples and then landed on Su Ji, closing his eyes slightly, as if he recognized each other just like Su Ji.

"This place is so beautiful! It is indeed a place where gods live!"

Accompanied by a childish voice, the twelve white-robed elders opened their eyes at the same time, looking at the same place behind them.

Su Ji took a closer look and found a child walking out from behind the twelve white-robed elders, followed by a middle-aged man in official robes.

The child looked to be about the same age as Hua Rulang, about ten years old, wrapped in a brocade hat and mink fur, and dressed in a gorgeous imperial attire.

Prince Ji Gongyan!
After looking around nervously, Su Ji breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that his father, Xibo Jifu and Li Hongxi, did not come, otherwise he would have recognized his identity.

Ji Gongzhen walked down the Yunyun Rock, and under the escort of the twelve elders, came to the huge stone tablet on the edge of the cliff, and kowtowed three times.

Su Ji instantly understood the purpose of Ji Gongzhen's coming here.Qilin is the ancestral god of the Zhou family bloodline, which originated from the ancestor god Yinglong of the Yellow Emperor, and is one of the main branches of the bloodline of Yinglong.As the prince of the current dynasty, Ji Gongxuan should come here to worship the ancestor of Qilin on behalf of his father this time.

However, from Su Ji's point of view, the little prince seemed to want to use the excuse of worshiping the ancestor of Qilin, and wanted to take the opportunity to leave the palace, see the magnificent scenery of Kunlun Mountain, and join in the fun to see Qilin Yunshi.

"Father, you are here too!"

Hearing a familiar voice from behind, Su Ji looked back, Guo Han brushed his shoulder, and went straight to the middle-aged man beside Ji Gongxuan.

Su Ji immediately understood that the middle-aged man in official robes was Guo Han's father, Guo Shi's father who worked with Xibo Jifu in the same dynasty.

From this point of view, there are quite a few people who came to Qilin Cliff to watch the excitement this time.

However, what puzzled Su Ji now was why everyone he knew had arrived, but Jiang Ling never showed up?
