Cultivation begins with the mysterious little tripod

Wang Fu's current aura is at the initial stage of foundation building, which is a medium-level cultivation level among the casual cultivators in front of the palace. However, Wang Fu did not intend to become a guest of the Wenren family based on his cultivation level. For outsiders entering the family, the higher the cultivation level, the more restrictions there are.

The initial stage of foundation building is just a cultivation level that exceeds the Qi Refining Realm but has just entered the Foundation Building Realm. It can be respected, avoid some unnecessary troubles, and also reduce the defense of the Wenren family.

With his means of making talismans and refining tools, casually showing some abilities is enough to make the Wenren family treat him as a distinguished guest.

After waiting for nearly an hour, the sun has set, and there are more than 20 cultivators who walked up the bluestone steps. On the platform square of the Guest Hall, there are already eighty or ninety cultivators sitting cross-legged.

Most of these cultivators are in the Qi Refining Realm, including old and young male and female cultivators. The Foundation Building Realm accounts for less than one-third, but most of them are middle-aged cultivators with deep thoughts.

At this moment, a ray of light rose from the high platform in front of the guest reception hall, and then the ray of light disappeared, and the three brothers of the Wenren family who had been hiding in the formation also appeared.

Just when the scattered cultivators were stunned, the only middle-aged man in the late foundation building stage among the three stepped forward and stood on the edge of the high platform. He then scanned everyone with a sharp and condescending look, and then spoke slowly:

"Welcome all Taoists to my Wenren family!"

"Let's not talk nonsense. The family's rules for recruiting guests have slightly changed from the past, so all Taoists please listen carefully to my next words. I will only say it once. If you are affected by missing any key information, it has nothing to do with me."

The people under the high platform looked at the three cultivators wearing the clothes of the Wenren family, listened to their words, and were slightly surprised, or looked at each other, or frowned and thought, and then they dared not neglect to stand up, slightly bowed, and made a respectful gesture.

Even a few late-stage foundation-building cultivators among the scattered cultivators were listening attentively.

Everyone knew that whether they could pass the assessment, successfully become Wenren family retainers, and obtain the qualification to practice in the "Spiritual Vortex" depended entirely on the three people in front of them. Naturally, they dared not neglect them in the slightest, thus leaving a bad impression and losing the opportunity to become Wenren family retainers.

The three people on the high platform were also satisfied when they saw everyone cooperate so well.

The middle-aged man in the lead nodded slightly, showing a solemn look, and then slowly spoke:

"This time, my Wenren family will only recruit six retainers. We will not look at qualifications and potential, but only at the final ability. In the six directions, only the six Taoist friends with the strongest means can enter my Wenren family, become retainers, and obtain the qualification to practice in the "Spiritual Vortex". As for the previous standards, they will be invalidated."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the scattered cultivators suddenly changed, and there was a little commotion, especially those cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm, whose faces froze and showed indignation. Their cultivation is not as good as that of the foundation-building stage. If the winner is determined only by the final ability, then there is basically no hope.

The middle-aged man listened to the noise, opened his mouth and uttered a cold shout containing spiritual power, and then immediately quieted down.

"This is the result of the unanimous decision of the elders of my clan. If you feel there is no hope, you can leave early." The middle-aged man said and looked around at everyone.

The cultivators below the stage looked at each other, unwilling to leave. Even the Qi Refining cultivators who felt that there was little hope would choose to stay and take a gamble. After all, the temptation of the "Spiritual Vortex" was too great. No one knew until the last moment whether they would be the one who laughed last.

What if there happened to be no Foundation Establishment cultivators in the path they were good at?

Seeing that no one left and no one was making a noise, the middle-aged man continued to speak, his expression became grim:

"Since no one left, then the selection will begin next. Daoists who are above the middle stage of Foundation Establishment and intend to become our clan's guests with their cultivation strength can stand up first."

As soon as the voice fell, several figures came out of the crowd, a total of six people, four men and two women, all of whom had strong auras. Even the middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivator among them looked confident.

"Zi Yue, you take these six Taoist friends to the martial arts arena of the clan and be responsible for their competition. The winner can directly become a guest." The middle-aged man spoke calmly, and after he finished speaking, the heroic man standing on his left responded.

Then he took two steps forward eagerly, glanced at the six people with a smile, and said:

"Six Taoist friends, please follow me."

As he said that, he summoned a flying boat, jumped into it, and then reminded them again.

"I heard that the martial arts arena of the people is in the clan. The six Taoist friends must not leave my side on the way, otherwise they will be seen by the patrolling elders of the clan and treated as spies."

"Don't worry, Taoist friend Zi Yue, we are awake." The six people all bowed and responded.

Then several people summoned their own flying spirit tools, drove them into the air, followed closely behind Wenren Zi Yue, turned into a long rainbow, and disappeared on the platform square.

After watching the few people leave, the middle-aged man turned to look at the rest of the people, and continued with an unchanged expression:

"Since the remaining Taoist friends do not rely on their strength and cultivation as their capital, they must have their own strengths. As the leaders of the eight hundred side sects, the pills, formations, instruments, and talismans are also the talents that our clan needs first. Of course, if any Taoist friend has made considerable achievements in other ways, he is not without opportunities."

"Now, please line up according to my instructions. I will select the leaders from each team later and then consider it."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he stretched out his palm and waved it. Five spiritual lights flew out and floated in five directions of the platform square. The light faded, revealing the true appearance of the spiritual lights.

It was five jade pillars. Four of them were suspended with the words "Dan", "Zhen", "Qi" and "Fu". As for the fifth jade pillar, although it looked ordinary, it actually included many side door ways.

"Fellow Taoists, these five jade pillars are spiritual tools specially made by the elders of our clan to select disciples. Line up according to your own skills." The middle-aged man retracted his palm and said loudly.

All the scattered cultivators immediately rushed to the five jade pillars.

Wang Fu mixed in the crowd and walked slowly to the jade pillar with the word "Fu". There were not many cultivators with him, but there was an old man in Confucian robes in the middle stage of foundation building. Seeing that the cultivation of others was not as high as his, the old man stroked his beard and smiled lightly, revealing a confident look.

He looked like he had won the game.

Wang Fu glanced at him and sneered in his heart.

As for the other few people, they were all in the Qi Refining Realm, and they were old and young. Except for a young woman in a white dress who had an unchanged expression, the others immediately looked like they had lost their parents when they saw two foundation-building cultivators in the team. They were discouraged and extremely disappointed.

There were many people gathered in front of the other four jade pillars, especially the Dan-shaped jade pillar, which actually accounted for half of the total number of people. Perhaps because there were too many people in this jade pillar, the middle-aged man had already told the fair-skinned young man to deal with it alone, and he flew to the middle of the square.

After looking around, he said in a deep voice:

"Fellow Daoists, now listen to me announce the rules."
