Chapter 43 Starry Unicorn (1)
Hearing Ye Hua’s reminder, Long Haochen suddenly felt a little regretful. However, after entering this area, he clearly felt that the funnel vortex surrounding the spiritual furnace in his chest was rotating significantly faster. Even if he doesn't practice meditation, his spiritual power will not increase much slower here.
"Tongming." A deep and old voice sounded at this moment.
Long Haochen was surprised. As his cultivation level improved, his mental power became stronger and stronger. He didn't know that his low spiritual power consumption when using skills was not only caused by the Son of Light's physical constitution, but also by his strong mental power. To a considerable extent. But at this time, he didn't notice anyone approaching at all.
“The ghost shadow of the main temple of repairing the city and his son Guiwu came to the holy mountain to choose a mount partner.”
The figure flashed, and the ghost shadow who had been lagging behind before came to the front with his son. Stand next to Master Ye Hua and Long Haochen.
An old figure slowly walked out from the front. His body was like a part of the light golden mist, and his breath was completely covered by the light mist.
The old man was a little hunchbacked. Not to mention armor, he didn't even have a samurai uniform, just a simple gray cloth. There are a few sparse white hairs around the bald spot. The wrinkles on his face can definitely serve as a weapon to catch mosquitoes and flies. There is no sparkle in his hazy eyes. He looked like he was dying, as if a gust of wind might end his life.
"Haoyue branched into Ye Hua, and brought his disciple Long Haochen to the Holy Mountain to choose a mount partner." Ye Hua's cold voice sounded. Even here, he could not change his habits.
The old man walked over very slowly and got closer. When Long Haochen saw his appearance clearly, he couldn't help but be startled.
The old man only had one arm, his left arm was severed at the elbow, his right eye was blind, and there was a huge scar on his face that extended from the top of his head to his chin. It looked as if his head had been split open.
While seeing the old man's appearance clearly, Long Haochen also discovered that his cold-tempered teacher had a look of respect in his eyes as he slowly bowed to the old man. The same goes for the ghost on the other side.
Long Haochen did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed the teacher and bowed respectfully.
Although Oniwu also bowed down after his father, there was a hint of disapproval in his eyes. He has been a proud figure since he was building the city's main temple since he was a child. Whether he is in the knight's temple or building the city, he is not polite to anyone who sees him. It was somewhat reluctant to bow down to such a disabled old man at this time.
The old man swept his eyes away from the four people in front of him, and said lightly in a hoarse old voice: "Take out your credentials."
"Yes." Guiying and Ye Hua agreed in unison. Guiying took another step faster and handed over a scroll. Ye Hua just glanced at him coldly, and then handed him a scroll.
The old man first looked at the scroll handed over by the ghost and nodded. Then when he looked at the scroll handed over by Ye Hua, he let out a sigh, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Long Haochen, looking him up and down.
Long Haochen vaguely knew that this scroll contained all the records after he entered the Haoyue Branch Hall, including his age and cultivation level.
At this time, being watched by the one-eyed old man, he felt a sense of inability to escape all over his body, as if the dim one-eyed eye had powerful penetrating power.
The old man's eyes quickly passed over him, then he waved to Guiwu and said, "Come here."
The ghost touched his son and winked at him.
Oniwu hurried forward, at least on the surface he was respectful. The old man raised one arm and landed on Onimu's shoulder seemingly casually. Onimu's body moved slightly subconsciously, as if he was about to struggle. However, when the skinny palm fell on his shoulder, his whole body stiffened instantly and he couldn't help it at all. Move half a minute.
A drop of sweat flowed from Oniwu's forehead. He clearly felt that the old man's palm was like a mountain. No matter how hard he exerted his strength, it was like a mud cow sinking into the sea.
"Well, eighteen years old. Allowed to enter. You can leave." The latter sentence was said to the ghost.
When he flipped his wrist, there was a long token in his skinny palm. The token was completely black. He handed the token into Oniwu's hand and said: "When encountering different levels of magical beasts, the token will appear in different colors. The lowest magical beast in the Holy Mountain is the second level, and the corresponding color is red, and so on, yellow, green, green, Blue, purple, white, silver. If gold appears, then it means you have encountered an aggressive monster. As long as it does not show closeness to you at the first time, stay away as soon as possible. If you are close to him, you can try to communicate with him mentally. If you don't want to communicate with him, you can continue to search until you find the target. The time limit is thirty days. If you still haven't found a suitable monster within thirty days, the token will appear red-gold. You will be teleported out in ten seconds and the token will be withdrawn. Do you understand? "
" Yes," Gui Wu agreed.
The scroll held in the old man's hand suddenly turned into flying ash, and a gray energy floated out and merged with the black token in his hand. The halo on the token flashed and returned to normal.
"Thank you, senior." Guiying respectfully saluted the old man and then turned around and exited the Holy Mountain. Guiwu did not dare to neglect, glanced at Long Haochen not far away, and stepped into the light golden mist. Among them, it disappeared in an instant.
The old man waved to Long Haochen, "It's your turn, young man, let me feel the age of your bones. See if you can really surprise me."
"Yes." After Long Haochen glanced at the teacher, he slowly stepped forward and stood respectfully in front of the old man.
The old man also put his hand on his shoulder, and a warm feeling suddenly came in. Long Haochen didn't move, just stood there quietly.
After a moment, a look of surprise flashed in the old man's single eye. After retracting his hand, he looked at him up and down again.
"Haoyue Branch Hall." The old man said solemnly.
"Junior is here." Ye Hua took two steps forward and saluted respectfully.
The old man turned his eyes and looked at Ye Hua, saying: "Where did you find this little monster? As expected, he is not yet fourteen years old. He has already become a great knight. And he is very clever. The strength is over a thousand. Even when the little guy Long Xingyu came here decades ago, he didn't seem to have such a talent. This is a real genius! Are you willing to report it to the temple for training? ”
Ye Hua's expression changed slightly. He did not expect that the mountain guarding elder in front of him would have a love for Long Haochen. Thinking about it, a weirdo like him might not appear in a hundred years.
"Senior, it's not that the junior is unwilling, it's just that in half a year there will be a selection competition for the Demon Hunting Group. The junior has confidence, and his teachings to him are no worse than anyone else."
The old man slightly After thinking about it, he nodded and said: "Okay. I'm too lazy to take care of these external affairs. It's up to you. My child, did you hear clearly what I just said?"
Long Haochen said respectfully: "Listen clearly."
The old man nodded and said: "Then you can go too. However, you are different from him. You can break through the Great Knight within twenty years old. One more privilege than him. If you don't find a suitable mount for you within thirty days, you can enter the teleportation array on the top of the holy mountain to randomly obtain a magical beast from another plane to serve as a mount. At that time, you can only try your luck. You will definitely find a suitable monster for you, but it is difficult to say whether it is strong or weak. It may even be a first-level monster. Therefore, you need to be careful during these thirty days in the Holy Mountain. Try hard. Do you understand?”
