C19 The entrance test

"Cang Xuan Empire has a vast region of nearly ten thousand kilometers. In this region, there are various large and small sects and clans of Spiritual Cultivation, and it is hard to count them all. Vast Expanse Sect is one of the top sects, together with the Gu Yue Sect and the Thousand Demons Sect, they are known as the Three Major Sects. Furthermore, the Vast Expanse Sect and the Gu Yue Sect are both righteous sects, while the Thousand Demons Sect is a large sect of the devil sect. Both sides are often fighting and clashing, and although it is extremely sinister in general, I heard that there is a trend of devilish strength dissipating in recent years … " As if he could tell that Qin Kong knew nothing about the outside world, Zi Feng planned to teach him a lesson.

Zi Feng knew a lot of things, it could even be said that he was ancient times and modern times.

Talking with Zi Feng for a long time almost certainly benefited Qin Kong.

As for Qin Kong, being knowledgeable and knowledgeable was not his strong point, but when it came to abilities, for Spiritual Cultivation who had just stepped onto the road of Spiritual Cultivation, almost no one in the world could surpass him, so in this aspect, Zi Feng was greatly enlightened.

Of course, this was only limited to their cultivation realms. The two of them didn't have it, nor were they able to communicate much regarding the cultivation of their innate techniques.

On the other hand, because Zi Ying could not interject with any words, it did not take long for him to fall asleep.

The night passed silently, and soon, the next morning arrived.

After washing up by the river, the three of them quickly used the Soaring Cloud Technique to ride the fog, and headed in the direction of the Vast Expanse Sect.

During the conversation last night, Zi Feng and Zi Ying had already known that Qin Kong was also going to the Vast Expanse Sect, and they were obviously very happy about it.

Furthermore, even though they had met Qin Kong by chance, they shared a similar feeling.

… ….

The Vast Expanse Sect was located to the south of the Cang Xuan Empire, and it was relatively close to the border.

From Zi Feng's introduction, Qin Kong came to understand that the Gu Yue Sect was located in the northwest of the Cang Xuan Empire and the Thousand Demons Sect was located in the northeast of the Cang Xuan Empire.

Judging from the map, the three major sects were just like three empires, with their heads in the air!

The three of them rode the clouds and mist, traversing the vast expanse of heaven and earth.

If Qin Kong was alone, his speed would be faster. But now, in order for Zi Feng and Zi Ying to keep up, he deliberately lowered his speed.

Of course, Qin Kong did not let the two of them see anything.

Fortunately, the three of them were not very far from Vast Expanse Sect, and it wouldn't take long for them to arrive there.

… ….

The place where the Vast Expanse Sect was located was in the Vast Expanse Mountain Range. The Vast Expanse Mountain Range.

All stars surrounded the moon. In fact, it meant that the main peak of Vast Expanse Sect was surrounded by other peaks of different sizes. Perhaps looking down from above didn't feel that deep, but if one looked down from the sky, they would feel a deep sense of shock.

The scenery of the Vast Expanse Mountain Range was undoubtedly the best in the entire Cang Xuan Empire. Unfortunately, there were not many people who could admire him.

If a mortal came to this place, it would be impossible for them to step foot in Spiritual Cultivation's territory. Although Spiritual Cultivation and mortal aren't completely existences from two different worlds, in many aspects, there were still many aspects where the two were clearly distinct.

If one wasn't a member of the Vast Expanse Sect, one could either find a reason or find trouble here. In short, they would not stay for long and was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery.

In contrast to how few people there were in the past, the Vast Expanse Mountain Range was bustling with noise and excitement.

At the entrance of the Vast Expanse Mountain Range, streams of people flowed in an endless stream, forming a long, winding line that stretched off into the distance without end.

In the crowd, there were both men and women, but most of them were very young.

Even though the Vast Expanse Sect's method of accepting disciples was not entirely based on the concept of being an elite, it was not like there were no rules for it either.

Vast Expanse Sect only recruited Spiritual Cultivation s below the age of twenty with elementary stage.

If one was over twenty years old and still possessed elementary stage, then one would basically be considered an existence without any talent, and it would be difficult for one to have any great achievements in one's entire life.

Vast Expanse Sect didn't expect every disciple that was recruited into a sect to become a famous big shot, but they had to at least have the demeanor of a middle-aged man. After all, this was the only way to guarantee that the sect's strength would remain at a very high level.

Therefore, even if every time Vast Expanse Sect recruited a disciple, it would attract Spiritual Cultivation from all directions, and in the end, a majority of them would return to their homes.

… ….

Around the afternoon of the second day, Qin Kong and the other two finally arrived at the Vast Expanse Mountain Range.

Qin Kong saw the long queue of people from afar, if he did not have a good understanding from Zi Feng, he would be shocked.

After the three of them landed, they quickly entered the queue.

Because they were outside the mountain entrance, Qin Kong and the others could not see what was going on inside.

However, since the three of them dared to come all the way here, they naturally wouldn't be lacking in patience.

With some idle chatter, coupled with the occasional conversations of others, it was soon morning of the next day.

Suddenly, a grand voice rang out. It was as if a great bell had rang out, seemingly without end.

"All the new disciples that have come to participate in the Vast Expanse Sect's disciple recruitment conference, this old one welcomes everyone here. Next, please follow the order and enter!"

After this voice was heard, the long stream of people immediately began to move like a coiled python, zigzagging forward.

After an unknown period of time, it was finally Qin Kong and the other two's turn.

Soon, they reached the entrance of the Vast Expanse Mountain Range.

However, after entering, the three of them were shocked by the scene in front of their eyes.

It was a boundless prairie that was filled with green grass and flowers. It was luxuriant with flowers, and there were blue and white clouds covering the sky.

At this moment, all the many Spiritual Cultivation who had entered earlier were gathered on the plain.

Without a doubt, this situation was different from what everyone had imagined.

Zi Feng looked around, and then suddenly reacted and said: "Could this be a part of the heaven and earth?"

As if hearing Zi Feng's words, in the next moment, Guan Xingzi, who could only hear him but not see him, finally revealed his true appearance.

Standing on the multicolored cloud, wearing a Seven Stars Daoist Robe, with white beard and hair, with a solemn expression, he looked like a sage, like an otherworldly expert.

"This place is the inside of my heaven and earth ring, named half an acre in radius. If you want to join the Vast Expanse Sect, you must pass two tests, Firstly, it is the test of the Divine Heart s, and this test is also the most important test, because as long as you pass the first test, you will be able to become a member of the Vast Expanse Sect, and of course, if you do not pass the first test, it is not impossible." If you can pass the second test, you must be able to join the Vast Expanse Sect, and the treatment of the Divine Heart will be better. Alright, we will now begin your test. Leap out of the pit! " After Guan Xingzi finished speaking, the ground not far in front of him suddenly caved in, as if it were a landslide.

After a short while, a crater of thirty meters in diameter appeared before everyone's eyes. It was so deep that the bottom of the crater could not be seen.

"This pit, could it be the entrance to the Netherworld Kingdom?" Seeing such a situation, some Spiritual Cultivation s could not help but whisper to themselves.

It was unknown if it was because the Taoist temple star had trained to the point of having walls and ears, or because it had two clairaudient ears, that he could actually hear what this Spiritual Cultivation said clearly.

The next moment, he revealed a faint smile, acted like a teacher, and said in a gentle tone: "Young man, the Spiritual Cultivation's world, has always been a pit, if you want to escape the pit, then you must jump into it first. Don't hesitate anymore, let's begin!"

Very quickly, one of the Spiritual Cultivation at the very front walked forward, and immediately leaped into the air. Although he had a trace of hesitation, it was only in the face of the terror of the unknown, and no matter what, Vast Expanse Sect would not harm them.

After entering the pit, this Spiritual Cultivation did not make a sound.

In the next moment, a heart-shaped shape suddenly appeared in the air above the giant pit, and it looked quite similar to the Divine Heart.

At the same time, an emotionless voice that was as cold as a mountain sounded.

"Two Awakening Heart, passed the test!"

Hearing that, Qin Kong focused and indeed, he saw two holes on the top and middle of the heart.

Of the two holes, one was slanted downwards and the other was slanted upwards, as if it was left behind after being stabbed by a sharp blade.

After someone volunteered to give it a try, the Spiritual Cultivation behind him naturally followed suit one after another.

Qin Kong's gaze locked onto the space above the crater, yet he could not help but mutter to himself in his heart: "I don't know, exactly what rank is my Divine Heart at?"

Before meeting Zi Feng, Qin Kong did not know that the Divine Heart s were divided into different ranks.

In fact, just like Qin Kong, many of the Spiritual Cultivation s in the world didn't know about this point.

This was because the rank of Divine Heart was not something that could be revealed without a doubt. Something that could be seen with a single glance would only be detected through special methods.

As for the so called special method, it was basically only possessed by sects with a certain amount of strength and great Spiritual Cultivation Clans. It was not because of how mysterious it was, but because it was impossible to sustain without sufficient financial resources.

Furthermore, there were some differences between the Spiritual Cultivation and clan. To them, the grade of the Divine Heart was not that important. It was fine if they did not know it.

There were a total of nine ranks in the Divine Heart s. They were: One Enlightenment Heart, Two Apertures Intelligence Heart, three orifices and sharp heart, Four Apertures Communication Heart, Five Apertures Profound Spirit Heart, Six Apertures Void Heart, Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart, Eight Apertures Intelligence Heart, and Nine Apertures to High Heart.

Although it looked like the grading of Divine Heart was determined by the acupoints on it, in reality, it was not that simple. An additional acupoint was different from an additional one.
