Immortal Palace Longevity

Yuanyang Sect, Tongtian Peak.

A ray of light as dark as ink fell on the Zhenyang Dojo, revealing a figure with black hair and black robes.

This person is Liu Yu!

On the ninth day after completing the True Inheritance assessment task, and just after finishing his daily practice, he received a message from the sect and came here to participate in the ceremony for promotion to the True Inheritance.

At a glance, there are many monks on the dojo, and they are all familiar or unfamiliar fellows from the foundation building sect.

But even if they were strangers, Liu Yu knew their names, so he wouldn't have the embarrassment of not being able to pronounce them by name when they meet on the left.

After all, immortal cultivators have a photographic memory, and there are only a few hundred Yuanyang Sect foundation-building cultivators. Even if they have never interacted with each other, it is still easy to collect simple information.

"Senior Brother Liu, congratulations."

Qian Zhijin quickly walked closer, cupped his hands and said.

He had a spring-like smile on his face, but his heart was very complicated. He was both envious and a little jealous. It was really sad.

Thinking back to those days, Liu Yu was just an ordinary outer disciple, with a cultivation level of only the fourth level of Qi Refining.

He wanted to choose a better outside chore boy and offered him spiritual stones as a benefit, calling him "Senior Brother Qian".

But now that times have changed, the status of both parties has undergone great changes.

The other party has soared into the sky, rising step by step from an ordinary outer sect disciple, and now he is about to become a true disciple, and he now has to call him senior brother.

That is the true position!

There are more than 400 people building the foundation of the sect, but there are only a few dozen people who are lucky enough to be listed as true successors.

Everyone is a leader among their peers, and their status far exceeds that of ordinary foundation-building monks.

After being specially trained by the sect, the chance of condensing golden elixir is also much higher than that of ordinary monks.

He was really impressed that the other party was able to ascend to the position of True Successor with his cultivation in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Liu for ascending to the position of True Successor. The success of the Golden Elixir is just around the corner!"

However, Qian Zhijin had rich experience, so he suppressed all the complicated thoughts and sorrows in his heart and said sincere congratulations.

At this moment, he was also happy and fortunate.

No matter what, his relationship with Liu Yu is pretty good and they can barely be considered "friends".

The other party's future is soaring into the sky, which is not a bad thing at all.

If you encounter any difficulties in the future, maybe you will ask for help from the other party? !

"Senior Brother Qian, you're welcome."

"Liu is just practicing step by step. He was able to obtain the position of true successor, all thanks to the cultivation of the sect and a bit of luck."

"As for the words that the golden elixir will be perfected, you must not take it seriously."

Liu Yu smiled heartily and said politely.

Mu Xiu is bound to be destroyed by Lin Feng. Although he is about to become a true disciple, he still does not want to be too high-profile.

"Senior Brother Liu is already the venerable master of the True Inheritance, and I would never dare to accept the title of Senior Brother."

"Never mention it again, never mention it again."

Regarding the title of senior brother, Qian Zhijin waved his hands repeatedly, expressing that he could not accept it.

More than ten years have passed, and he and Liu Yu have been building foundations at about the same time, and now they have reached the middle stage of foundation building.

However, there is a huge difference in status between true disciples and ordinary disciples. Even if their cultivation levels are the same or even higher, the latter must address the former as senior. This is the etiquette of the ancient sect.

Calling him senior is just polite. After all, the rules of the sect are there, and Liu Yu, as a person who enjoys privileges, cannot possibly violate them.

He has no intention of shaking the sect's rules and order that have been passed down for thousands of years.

While they were talking, a blue ray of light fell not far away, revealing the figure of a cold female cultivator.

It was actually Li Buyu!

With a slight smile on his cold and cold face, Li Buyu put away his spiritual weapon and walked over.

"It's just a trivial matter, why bother Senior Sister?"

Liu Yu hurried up to greet him and said so after saying hello.

"The position of true successor is no small matter, and from now on it will no longer be comparable to mediocre people."

"Junior brother is promoted to true successor. As a senior sister, of course I have to support the scene."

Li Buyu suppressed his smile and said seriously.

"Thank you, senior sister!"

Liu Yu heavily handed over his hand.

He could feel the goodwill of the other party, and the Li family's help was also indispensable for the success of getting the position of true successor, so this thank you was sincere.

Liu Yu skillfully dealt with the fellow disciples who came to congratulate him. Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Yu ended the conversation in time.

Turning his head, he nodded slightly towards Jiang Qiushui and Ji Ruyan who were following him. With a flick of his sleeves, he quickly walked up to Tongtian Peak.

After passing through the area where the foundation-building monks were at the foot of the mountain and entering the mountainside where Elder Jindan's cave was located, Liu Yu slowed down slightly.

But no matter what scenery there is on the way, there is no stopping at all.

Finally, when we reached the top of Tongtian Peak, we paused.

Liu Yu saw a mottled ancient palace.

The ancient palace is only the size of a basketball court, and the entire body is made of bronze-like material, glowing with a blue-black color.

Although it is neatly and cleanly maintained, it can still be seen from every corner that this ancient temple has gone through a long period of time to leave such mottled traces.

Those are the traces washed away by the power of time, those are the carvings of time.

Liu Yu glanced at it and immediately felt a sense of vicissitudes that had passed through the years.

The small hall has gone through the years and has been preserved since distant times. It seems to carry the weight of history!

Timeless!

Directly above the palace door, there is a square plaque with the three characters "ancestral hall" engraved on it.

Perhaps because it is too old, the gilt font has faded.

The hall was a solemn place, and the birds and flowers outside were peaceful. In such an environment, Liu Yu unconsciously held her breath.

I don't know why, but I can no longer feel contempt in my heart.

At this time, there was a female cultivator wearing apricot yellow robes standing outside the Patriarch's Hall. She was stopping to look up at the small hall, and seemed to be looking at it carefully.

She looked solemn and thoughtful, as if she was reminiscing about the sect's past.

Wei Xiaoqin!

"Why is this woman here? Could it be...?!"

Liu Yu's heart moved.

This woman was the leader of the Qingfeng team with him, and her performance in the battle of Yan Kingdom was not much worse than her own, and she received forty-five points of merit.

It took longer than him to build the foundation. If he had accumulated some merits before, it would not be difficult to meet the basic requirements.

No matter how this woman passed the test, now that she is standing here, it undoubtedly means something.

How sharp is the spiritual sense of the Foundation Establishment monk?

In addition, he did not restrain himself when observing, so he was quickly noticed. Wei Xiaoqin turned around and saw the person coming, with a look of surprise on his face.

The matter of promotion to a true successor will usually be announced to the entire sect only after the ceremony has been officially completed.

Before that, if they didn't take the initiative to spread the word, it would basically not be known to other monks, so neither of them knew about each other's affairs in advance.

"Junior Sister Wei."

Liu Yu walked forward and said hello lightly.

Wei Xiaoqin returned the favor with her hand, and then fell silent.

Gu Xi

The Patriarch Hall is a solemn and solemn place, and it is quite inappropriate to have casual conversations here, so after the two briefly greeted each other, neither of them had the intention to speak.

If he was accused of disturbing the peace of the Patriarch and was disgusted by Elder Jindan who presided over the matter, he would be ready to cry without tears.

…

In this way, another two quarters of an hour passed.

When the sun rose to the middle of the sky and shone brightly on the earth, three powerful golden elixir-level spiritual pressures suddenly appeared.

Two of the spiritual pressures seemed familiar to Liu Yu. He turned around and saw that they were Master Changfeng and Elder Qi Yuntian.

As for the last elder, he didn't know him.

Two foundation-building disciples were promoted to true successors, and three Jindan masters were actually dispatched, which shows that they take this matter seriously.

True disciples are specially trained and shoulder the heavy responsibility of the sect's inheritance. They are the core among the core, and the "Three Heroes and Four Heroes" are the best among them.

If you walk in the world of immortality, it represents the face of the sect to a certain extent.

Therefore, the sect has always been extremely cautious in selecting true disciples and will never relax its requirements.

In the past dynasties, most of them remained around twenty people, and when they were prosperous, they only had thirty people.

Even with the help of the Li family and the Yan family, Liu Yu still met the requirements in all aspects. In order to complete the assessment tasks, Liu Yu still worked hard for more than half a year.

This was even when he secretly used his hidden strength, which shows how difficult it is to be promoted to a true disciple.

There are more than 20 true successors among the more than 400 foundation-building disciples. For ordinary monks, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to become a true successor.

Without extraordinary luck or extraordinary family background, it is almost impossible.

"Disciple pays homage to all master uncles."

When the three elders appeared, Liu Yu and Wei Xiaoqin reacted quickly and immediately bent down to salute, not daring to slack off at all.

When he bent down, he could feel the eyes of the three Jindan elders falling on him, looking up and down.

Liu Yu couldn't help but be secretly frightened by being observed so carefully by the Golden elixir monk at such a close distance.

The "invisibility technique" is quietly operating at full strength, lest its secrets be discovered.

On the other side, Wei Xiaoqin was also under tremendous pressure, but the elders did not speak and she did not dare to raise her head at all.

.

.

Every improvement in a monk's realm is a leap in the essence of life.

The two of them were like fragile sheep being watched at close range by the tiger at the top of the food chain. You can imagine the pressure they endured.

But being looked at carefully is normal.

The three elders who presided over the promotion not only wanted to preside over the promotion, but also made final considerations.

After contact, the elders will promote you only if you think you can take on a big job.

If you feel overwhelmed, all your efforts will be in vain.

"Get up."

It seemed that a long time had passed, and it seemed that it was only a short moment. Liu Yu heard the voice of Master Changfeng in his ears, and he slowly straightened his waist.

Where they stood, the three elders were nowhere to be seen.

After this incident, Liu Yu was determined.

He, Li Changkong's named disciple, is somewhat related to Master Changfeng, and he has fully met the requirements of true teaching in all aspects, without any fraud.

As long as you don't make any mistakes next time, there shouldn't be any accidents.

"call"

Beside her, Wei Xiaoqin also stood up and slowly exhaled.

It can be seen that she is under a lot of pressure to face the three Jindan elders.

"Junior Sister Wei..."

Liu Yu's expression was as usual, and his heart had returned to calm. He looked at each other and walked towards the Patriarch's Hall.

He crossed the threshold lightly and walked into the hall in a dignified manner.

Liu Yu looked solemn and quickly glanced around the hall, taking in a panoramic view of the situation inside the hall.

The decoration of the Patriarch's Hall is simpler than imagined.

On the central wall, there are portraits of the Yuanying Patriarch. There are small words on the portraits, briefly recording the deeds of the Yuanying Patriarch.

There were tributes placed on the offering table, and all the sacrificial utensils were next to it.

In the hall, the incense burner with three legs and two ears was emitting smoke rising from it, lingering in the hall.

As for the three Jindan elders, they were holding a few incense sticks and paying respect to the portraits of the ancestors of all generations.

Seeing this, Liu Yu and Wei Xiaoqin stood in the center of the hall with their hands down, quietly and without saying a word.

After the ceremony, the three elders including Changfeng Zhenren turned their heads and looked at the two people who had been waiting for a long time.

"Wei Xiaoqin, sixty-seven years old, in the middle stage of foundation building..."

"Excellent character, both moral and talented, can be a true disciple."

Elder Qi spoke slowly.

First, he briefly told Wei Xiaoqin's background, then talked about her contributions to the sect, and the official tasks she had performed.

Finally, after the summary, he announced that she could be promoted to a true disciple.

"It seems that this ceremony is mainly presided over by Elder Qi."

"Changfeng Zhenren and another elder are just going through the motions and serving as witnesses."

Liu Yu thought to himself.

At this time, Elder Qi, who looked old-fashioned and serious, opened his mouth and scolded again:

"Why don't you come forward and salute the ancestor?!"

Wei Xiaoqin immediately responded, followed the way of the three elders just now, picked up three incense sticks, lit them, and saluted solemnly in front of the portrait of the ancestor.

After the ceremony, the three incense sticks were inserted into the furnace, and the ceremony was considered half completed, but he still knelt on the mat without getting up.

Although cultivating immortals is against the will of heaven, some geniuses and monsters may not even respect the heaven and earth, let alone kneel to the heaven and earth.

But for the sect, respecting teachers and passing on the torch are the first priority.

If even the ancestor is unwilling to kneel at the time of promotion to the true teaching, how can it be said to be "respecting teachers"? .

Such a person who does not respect his teacher and respects the way of the master will naturally not be promoted to the true disciple, and may be eliminated at will.

"The sect has taught you the skills, given you resources, and cultivated you into a talent, so that you can achieve today's achievements."

"As a true disciple, you should be a role model for ordinary disciples. From now on, you should abide by the sect rules and spare no effort to develop and expand the sect."

"......"

"If you dare to betray your teacher and ancestors, kill your fellow disciples, and violate the sect rules, there will be no place for you in heaven and earth, and the sect will definitely eliminate you."

"If you can do all of the above, you will make a heart demon oath, and from now on you will be the 23rd true disciple."

Elder Qi's old-fashioned and serious face was filled with inexplicable majesty, which made people afraid.

Every word and every sentence was upright and grand, and seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

Liu Yu took this scene into his eyes, his face remained serious, but there was no ripple in his heart.

Wei Xiaoqin had been prepared for a long time, and there was no hesitation when she heard it.

She immediately kowtowed heavily, knelt on the mat, faced the portraits of the ancestors of the Yuanyang Sect, and began to swear to the inner demon:

"Disciple Wei Xiaoqin, today I am promoted to the position of the true disciple, I will be loyal to the sect and abide by the sect rules..."

Wei Xiaoqin spoke very slowly, almost word by word, swore to the inner demon, and uttered the oath of loyalty to the sect.

In fact, the three elders did not have any special requirements, and this inner demon oath was not particularly strict.

According to Wei Xiaoqin's oath, as long as she did not betray her teacher and ancestors, kill her fellow disciples, and do all kinds of "treasonous" things, there were almost no restrictions.
