Chapter 435 Solemn Oath

Chapter 435 Solemn Oath

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 of the Foundation Establishment School.

But even if they are strangers, Liu Yu still knows their names, so they won't be embarrassed when they meet on the left and don't know their names.

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 the situation has 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 about 20 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 level 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, the relationship between him and Liu Yu is pretty good, and they can barely be regarded as "friends".

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

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. Being able to obtain the position of true successor is all due to the cultivation of the sect and a bit of luck."

"As for the words about the great success of the golden elixir, we 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 true successor, 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 the foundation 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. As a person who enjoys privileges, Liu Yu certainly cannot 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.

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 took one look 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 hall 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, right?!"

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 formal ceremony is completed.

Before that, if they didn't take the initiative to spread the word, it would basically not be known to other monks, so the two of them didn't know 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.

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 is accused of disturbing the peace of the Patriarch and is disgusted by Elder Jindan who presides over the matter, he will 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 disciples, 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 was still busy 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 only more than 20 true successors among the more than 400 foundation-building disciples. It is simply difficult for ordinary monks 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.

However, it is normal to be looked at carefully.

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 like a long time passed, and it seemed like 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 is Li Changkong's registered disciple, and he is somewhat related to Master Changfeng. He considers himself to have 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 normal, 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 next to it.

From the incense burner with three legs and two ears in the hall, curls of incense are rising, lingering in the hall.

As for the three Jindan elders, they were holding several sticks of incense and saluting the portraits of the ancestors of the past generations.

Seeing this scene, 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, Master Changfeng and the other three elders all turned around 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 conduct, both moral integrity and talent, can be a true legacy."

Elder Qi spoke slowly.

First, he briefly told Wei Xiaoqin's background and resume, and then talked about his meritorious service to the sect, as well as the official tasks he had performed.

After the final summary, it was announced that he could be promoted to a true disciple.

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

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

Liu Yu secretly thought.

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

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

Wei Xiaoqin immediately responded. Following the example of the three elders just now, he picked up three sticks of incense, lit them, and saluted solemnly in front of the portrait of the Patriarch.

After the ceremony, he inserted three sticks of incense into the furnace. The ceremony was half completed, but he still knelt on the futon and did not get up.

Although cultivating immortals is an act against heaven, some geniuses and evildoers may not even fear heaven and earth, let alone kneel to heaven and earth.

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

If even the Patriarch is unwilling to kneel down when he is promoted to True Inheritance, how can we say "respecting the Master and respecting the Tao"? .

This kind of person who does not respect his teacher will naturally not be promoted to the true successor, and he may have to clean up the family.

"The sect taught you the skills, gave you resources, and trained you to become a talented person, so that you can achieve what you have today."

"As a true successor, you should be a role model for ordinary disciples. From now on, you should strictly abide by the sect's rules and spare no effort for the development and growth of the sect."

"."

"If you dare to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors, kill each other in the same sect, or violate the sect rules, there will no longer be a place for you in heaven and on earth, and the sect will definitely clean up the door."

"If you can do all of the above, take the inner demon oath, and from now on you will be the twenty-third true disciple of this generation."

Elder Qi's prim and serious face carried an inexplicable majesty that made people intimidating.

Every word he spoke was upright and majestic, and seemed to be deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Liu Yu took this scene into consideration, keeping a serious look on his face, but not a trace of emotion in his heart.

Wei Xiaoqin had already been prepared and did not hesitate at all after hearing this.

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

"Disciple Wei Xiaoqin is promoted to the position of true successor today. He will definitely be loyal to the sect and abide by the sect's rules."

Wei Xiaoqin spoke very slowly, almost word by word, swearing to the inner demons and swearing to be loyal to the sect.

In fact, the three elders have no special requirements, and this inner demon oath is not particularly strict.

According to Wei Xiaoqin's oath, as long as he does not deceive his master, destroy his ancestors, kill fellow sect members, or do all kinds of "rebellious and unethical" things, there are almost no restrictions.

Thanks to book friend Fengfeng Feifei for the 3,000-point reward!
