Dragon The Lone Survivor Chapter 10

Rowan picked up Yu Yi, wiped it clean, rubbed its face lovingly a few times, and put it back on the pillow.

Nolan said coldly: "Don't put it here."

Rowan always takes Yu Yi with him wherever he goes, or rather, Yu Yi follows him, but he doesn't mind.

But Nolan has always been very mean to Yu Yi...

"What do you care? The sun is about to set." Rowan said unconvinced. Whenever the moon rose and the sun set, he would always speculate on the other Nolan, but the other Nolan would never do such boring things.

"...Okay." Nolan smiled sarcastically and said in his heart, you are always bright and sunny, aren't you?

It’s just that no one cared about their differences before, but now, haha.

"Are you talking to him? What did you say? Why do you always treat Yu Yi like this?" Rowan saw his expression and asked curiously. He had already seen that these two seemed to be able to communicate with each other.

"Nothing." Nolan said lightly.

"Then why do you play Yu Yi? Are you illiterate?" Even though the Yu Ling disciples Rowan had met often complained about Mo Jing's arrogance, most of the time, they were proud of this Yu Ling specialty like Finn.

"That's because it's too ugly." Nolan said casually, "How about this, if you hold me tonight, I won't play it anymore in the future?"

Rowan was silent for a while, picked up Yu Yi, and said, "Hold on!"

Yu Yi: ...

Nolan almost laughed, but his face was still very stern, "How about this, as long as you touch my fingers, it's not too much, right?"

Touch the tip of the claw, that seems to be okay...

Rowan slowly stretched out his hand, clenched his other fingers, and only stretched out his index finger stingily.

Nolan sensed someone's vague discomfort in his heart, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. He hooked his fingers around Rowan's, immediately relaxed his brows, and sighed with satisfaction.

...

"It seems that there are not as many people borrowing books today as usual."

Rowan took a look and said, "His calculation ability is also very good. He can roughly count a group of small fish swimming by."

"It seems to me that it's almost the same... maybe some people have secretly gone to watch the fun. Today is the day of Jinque's selection of immortals." Finn said. He was not as sensitive to the number of people as Rowan. "Brother Rowan, do you want to go and watch?"

The Yuling Sect would occasionally accept new members, but every sixty years, there would be a large-scale recruitment, with a deacon specifically responsible for this matter, selecting disciples with good aptitude from all over the country.

Finally, just outside the Golden Palace of Yuling Sect, at the main gate, there will be another test for admission into the sect, commonly known as "Selecting Immortals from the Golden Palace."

After that, I became a disciple of Yuling from then on. However, I could not even see the true face of Yuling Sect, and my fate ended outside the Golden Palace.

This year is another year for selecting immortals.

Rowan was really interested. All the humans he had seen so far were cultivators. But when Jinque selected immortals, they would select the best seedlings from the mortals. It was said that there were some differences between the mortals and the cultivators in the human race.

Finn turned back into a bird. Thanks to Nolan's daily efforts, Rowan's spiritual power has recovered and he can use his own magic weapon. He no longer needs to rely on him and can walk on the cloud by himself.

The two ran to the Jade Pass behind the Golden Palace and watched the excitement from afar. They were not the only ones there, and everyone hid in their own place.

The first time Rowan came to Jinque Yuguan was when he arrived at Yuling Sect. He did not stay here for a long time, so he only took a look at Jinque and did not go to Yuguan.

He had heard about the origin of the Jade Pass from Nolan. In the past, Yu Zhao split the mountain with one sword, so there was this "Immortal Cutting the Jade Pass". Now that he came up, Rowan discovered that there was a stone statue on top. "What is that?"

"Oh, there is a statue erected for Master Yu Zhao by an admirer. Back then, he stood alone on the cliff for a hundred years to comprehend the sword art, and with one sword he slashed through the Jade Pass, achieving the way of the sword. After he passed away, people later erected a statue in this place to commemorate him." Finn explained. He grew up in the Yuling Sect and was like a know-it-all. He didn't know where the remaining water from Lan Yu Ze was.

Now the Jinque Immortal Selection has not officially started yet. Rowan walked closer and saw that the Yuling Sect also had many talents. The stone statues were carved vividly. The stone statue was originally a man carrying a sword. He had handsome features, eyebrows flying into his temples, eyes slightly closed, as if he was in enlightenment, his hair and clothes were blown by the wind, his waist and back were straight, showing more proud.

Rowan immediately said: "Hey! This---"

He took Yu Yi off his head and compared it. Yes, it looked like Yu Yi, even the sword looked similar! However, Yu Yi was much smaller, and both it and its sword were black.

"They look alike!"

"This is not surprising. Those ink spirits are somewhat similar to the authors of the articles. After all, they carry their literary spirit. Yu Yi also inherited some sword spirit, so they are even more similar."

Rowan found it quite interesting and compared the big and small. "If I write a work, will there be a little Rowan?"

Finn smiled awkwardly, wanting to say something but stopping himself, not daring to speak.

Not likely.

Brother Rowan, have you forgotten that it takes a genius to obtain the legacy of the ancestor Chang En and turn it into ink essence? What you wrote is just a piece of waste paper...

At this time, under the leadership of the sect's deacons, the disciples who came from all over the place and arrived at Yuling also began their trials.

Coincidentally, the one summoned by the deacon was a member of the Mirage Clan. As soon as the Mirage Monster opened its mouth, it spewed out Mirage air.

These humans have not yet embarked on the path of cultivation, so how could they resist? After being surrounded by the mirage, their expressions all became dazed, and they fell into the illusion he created.

"What will they see?" Rowan asked.

There are many kinds of illusions. Some are like what he did, creating a fake Nolan, and some are like the mirage monster, creating a larger one. They can't see what each person saw.

"They are all different, but they are mainly to test one's character," Finn said.

There are too many difficulties on the path of cultivating immortals. If you can't get through this, then it's pointless to join a sect, and you can't even enter the Ningning realm.

The first realm of the twelve realms of cultivation, the realm of tranquility, requires the cultivator to stop thinking and stop being disturbed by the outside world. Although it is the first realm, it is a lesson that many cultivators need to constantly consolidate their cultivation in the future. They may encounter this problem from time to time, and they must remain calm no matter what goes well or badly.

The way to longevity is to have a long-term ambition!

Not long after, a human emerged from the illusion and regained consciousness, proving that he had passed the trial and came out on top.

Then, some people woke up one after another, and some failed. Finally, the deacon asked the failed ones to stand together and ordered them to be sent back.

Those who succeed can officially enter the Yuling Sect.

But at this moment, the human who won the first place said: "... Immortal, I also want to go back."

The deacon's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "Have you thought it through?"

"yes."

"Go with them over there. Someone will take you home."

"That number one... why did he leave?" Rowan couldn't figure it out. "Didn't he pass the trial? He should have a strong character."

Finn scratched his head, "I'm not sure either. It seems that this has happened before. Some humans are very strange. They are willing to give up the path to immortality and spend a hundred years in the mortal world."

One of them grew up in the Dragon Clan, and the other grew up in the Yuling Clan, and neither of them could really understand the human race.

Seeing that the Jinque Immortal Selection had ended, they were about to go back and enter the Jinque. Those who had just joined the sect also came in and looked at this fairyland with amazement on their faces.

The mountains are tall and graceful, surrounded by clear water, the boat is floating gently, and there is a faint sound of graceful chanting.

"They'll get used to it soon, let's go." Daoya smiled and left with Rowan, nodding politely to the deacon as he passed by.

The deacon also returned the greeting with a smile, and there was no sign at all that he had ever opposed Rowan becoming the chief minister.

The new members looked at them in amazement for a while, but suddenly someone shouted: "Liar, monster, this is not Yuling Sect! Let us out quickly!"

The deacon frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

After finally being selected in the Golden Palace, you are so happy that you go crazy?

The man looked crazy and said to his companions: "Listen carefully, everyone. The people on the river are chanting 'He was once the king and the tyrant, but when cooked he looks like his mother.' If this is the Yuling Sect, which says 'The way is natural, and the art is like Yuling', how could anyone chant such a thing!"

When everyone heard this, their faces changed: That makes sense!

I didn't expect the world of cultivation to be so complicated, and there is such a bold sect, taking advantage of the fact that mortals don't know much about immortal sects, and using the name of Yuling Sect to cheat people.

For a while, the voices of "liar" and "let me out" were heard everywhere...

deacon:...

He was thinking frantically, how to explain this!

The one above is a disciple who lost a fight with their master Han and took it as punishment? Then what do you say about Master Han's hobbies? Even he would think he was a liar.

...

"I heard that the new disciples started making trouble..."

"For some reason, they all shouted that the deacons were liars and asked them to be released."

"Ah, how could this happen? This has never happened before in the Jinque Immortal Selection Program."

"It's really strange. If there were any problems with these people, why weren't they eliminated outside the Golden Palace?"

Rowan heard everyone discussing this in the book forest, and he was surprised. "When I was watching the fun earlier, everything was fine. It seems that the deacon is not capable enough! No wonder he opposed me to be the chief minister!"

He did not forget about the incident just because the other party smiled at him when they passed by. He even did not care that he did not want to be the host in the first place.

Finn also felt strange, always felt something was wrong, but couldn't put his finger on it...

Rowan's words interrupted Finn's thoughts again, "Many people have borrowed this book by Chen Miaoxiang. What is it about?"

"Oh, Miaoxiang Yuanjun, she is the master of my great-uncle, and she ascended to heaven a long time ago." Finn said with great yearning, "My biggest regret is that I didn't live a few years earlier to meet her once. You know, the cultivation world calls her Yiran Yuanjun, because everything she does seems to be particularly easy. It is said that when Yiran Yuanjun participated in the Jinque Immortal Selection, the elders in the sect wanted to accept her as a disciple. She first practiced the fire method, and later she practiced to the 'listening to thunder' realm (the fourth realm). Suddenly she wanted to change to water magic, and she changed it all at once, and it seemed that she was not affected at all. She wanted to learn to refine tools, and she was particularly good at it. The sect also provided her with a lot of good materials.

"Yuan Jun's path to immortality was too smooth. She had never accepted a disciple in her life, and she had reached the eleventh realm. Suddenly she wanted to accept a disciple, and she accepted her great-grandmaster... Then you know how powerful her great-grandmaster is. The technique that her great-grandmaster practiced seemed to be created by Yuan Jun for her disciples. Anyway, this is not a book written by Yuan Jun on purpose. It is her old notes, which the sect master ordered people to compile into a book. People still like to borrow it to read. Yuan Jun has many wonderful ideas in techniques."

"No wonder so many people borrow it." Rowan also nodded appreciatively.

But Finn still felt that he was too calm, "Brother Rowan, why are you so calm!"

Rowan: "Haha, I still think that Master Fangcun is the most powerful, he can carry so much water."

Michiya: ...

Although there was nothing wrong with this reason, he still felt something was wrong. Maybe it was an illusion. How could he hear sarcasm?

It's great that Rowan can express his appreciation. The ancient powerful ones are like carp crossing the river. Some of their deeds are lost, and the human race doesn't know about them. The dragon race has lived longer and knows about them.

Not to mention the distant past, why did the entire dragon clan ascend to heaven?

It was the Dragon King and Treasure King who did it at that time.

Chen Miaoxiang's journey to immortality was smooth, but Zhenbaojun "ascended to immortality with one word", revealing the secret of heaven. Not only did he go alone, he also brought his entire clan to the immortal world...

Of course, except Rowan.

"Brother Rowan..."

Xuan Wuzi appeared out of nowhere, holding a bamboo basket of fruit in his hand. "The weather has been a bit dry recently. These are the fruits I picked from my own field. Enjoy them for you."

Deyi Field is the Yuling Sect’s own field. Unlike ordinary people’s fields, the plants here grow very fast and can meet all the needs of the sect’s disciples.

When Rowan and Finn saw Xuan Wuzi, they both turned away.

Xuan Wuzi has no credibility now.

Xuan Wuzi said aggrievedly: "Brother Rowan, Lord Han, I really regret this time. Please forgive me for being so generous. The new magic I have been researching is almost successful. I want to find some ideas. Why don't you give me some advice? Your illusion is so powerful..."

"Humph!" Finn hated him for being in cahoots with Dong Wei. It was a pity that Rowan forgave him once. "You guy, I think you have a head of granite - you will never repent!"

Xuan Wuzi: ...

Alas, he was unwilling to do so before.

But now, he really sees things clearly, accepts his fate, and no longer thinks about anything else.

Those black spirits also came out one after another, pointing at Xuan Wuzi, and sharing the same hatred with Zhu Han.

Xuan Wuzi was despised by the Mojing, and shamelessly pestered Rowan: "Eat one, eat one..."

Rowan: "No! Go away!"

Xuan Wuzi even half squatted on purpose, so that he was not as tall as Rowan, and it seemed that he really did not have the sense of superiority when facing Rowan, "It's very sweet, have one, Master Han, I know you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, I have recently collected some new works of Yun Zi Ran..."

"A human race with sweet words." Rowan said coldly, and Yu Yi also helped him fold his ears up and blocked his ear holes, "If you don't leave, I will do it!"

Everyone in the book forest was watching the play with empathy. Xuan Wuzi's experience, however, gave them a great warning at every step.

Suddenly, there was an unignorable cold breath. When he turned around, he saw that it was Master Shang's uncle dressed in white who walked in, heading straight towards Zhu Han and the others.

How could my uncle-master appear in the forest of books?

Well, this is also a somewhat familiar problem. They didn’t think about this issue carefully some days ago, and they were deceived by Rowan just like Dong Wei.

This is the fatal point of illusion. Fake is fake after all. Illusion has loopholes. Once it is exposed, that's it. This is also a test of the foundation of character that has been laid since the Ningning Realm (the first realm).

As long as you stay calm and don't be frightened by this almost real aura, you will figure it out. It is impossible for your uncle-master to appear here. This must be fake.

Xuan Wuzi also thought of this, and still smiled: "Brother Rowan, there is no need, please show mercy."

He thought to himself, even if it happens again, at least you will change the sect leader this time. If you continue to use my uncle-master, he will have no chance of defeating me.

Ah, I got closer, I saw it for the second time... It really looks like the real thing! It is worthy of being called a big clam!

"Uncle-master, please come back later. I will apologize to Brother Rowan first." Xuan Wuzi said jokingly, while silently repeating "fake, fake, fake" to himself. This was a good opportunity to break through the barrier in his heart, and he mustered up the courage to push the phantom hard.

...Hmm? Why didn't you push it?

Even feel like you're flying out?
