740: Chapter 223_3 740: Chapter 223_3 Liao Laotie heard the sound and became anxious at once, hastily calling out, “No, you can’t do this, you…” He wanted to say more.
But Mi Lian directly looked toward the constable at his side, and soon, the constable stepped forward and pulled Liao Laotie away.
“Behave yourself!”
“Cause any more trouble here, and you’ll be thrown into the dungeon!”
Then, Mi Lian turned to You Di, saying kindly, “You can talk with your mother for a while longer, and when we leave, we will take you with us.”
Having said that, he flew into the sky, and the Earth Observing Mirror in his hand once again shone towards the people behind him.
He resumed the selection of disciples.
Gradually, as each child was illuminated, and after more than a thousand people had been scanned, the color on the Earth Observing Mirror finally changed.
This time, a faint blue light emerged, dim and thin, like a slender thread.
Mi Lian hesitated for a moment, but he continued to shine the light on the next disciple.
Indeed, this person could cultivate, but his cultivation talent was too weak.
Even, they paled in comparison to the Ancient Immortal Body, which, despite its difficulty in cultivating, could still coalesce several Tao Bases.
But these disciples’ talents, to coalesce a single Tao Base, might take ten or twenty years, hardly suitable for cultivation.
As more and more people were scanned by the Earth Observing Mirror, the Hundred Peaks Sect finally began selecting disciples one by one.
Generally speaking, once the brightness reached the thickness of chopsticks, that disciple would be chosen.
However, like You Di with her astonishing talent, no more children of such caliber appeared again.
The crowd continually stepped forward.
In the sky, Little Bei Yan’s gaze quickly landed on a girl, exquisitely crafted like a jade sculpture.
He felt that this girl was extraordinary, and wondered if she might be another Immortal Body?
Under Little Bei Yan’s gaze, the Earth Observing Mirror soon shone upon the girl, and instantly, the whole mirror blazed brightly, emitting a golden light.
Following that, the light turned into numerous Sharp Swords, and a longsword appeared on the mirror as well.
Though merely a shadow, it gave the impression that it could pierce the Void, penetrate the sun and the moon, and it seemed as if everyone would perish under this sword.
That golden light was even more dazzling than the one that radiated from You Di before.
You Di already had an Immortal Body, but here was a light even more brilliant than the Immortal Body, a sword shadow that seemed as if it could pierce through the Earth Observing Mirror.
This girl…
“Ancient Immortal Body…”
“Only the Ancient Immortal Body could give off the impression of breaking through the Earth Observing Mirror!”
The expressions of the crowd turned curious.
The Ancient Immortal Body, known today as a Waste Body, was exceedingly rare, even scarcer than a regular Immortal Body.
Moreover, many Immortal Sects do not accept Ancient Immortal Bodies when recruiting disciples.
Otherwise, how could Four Treasures Peak take in four Ancient Immortal Bodies?
In fact, there had been discussions within the Hundred Peaks Sect before, whether to stop accepting Ancient Immortal Bodies, but for some reason, it was suppressed by the Sect Leader True Person at that time.
Now that the current Sect Leader True Person is in power, the matter was raised again, but once the four Ancient Immortal Bodies from Four Treasures Peak rose in prominence, no one spoke of it anymore.
The eyes of the crowd were instantly fixed upon Little Bei Yan.
Little Bei Yan finally understood why, when he secretly observed before, he felt the little girl had excellent cultivation talent, but also sensed she might not be suitable for cultivation.
It turned out that the little girl was an Ancient Immortal Body.
But this Ancient Immortal Body.
Although Little Bei Yan was the strongest among those present, he was unaware of many matters in the cultivation realm and looked curiously at Mi Lian beside him, asking, “What Immortal Body is this?”
“This…
there’s no record of it in the Earth Observing Mirror.” Mi Lian shook his head.
The Earth Observing Mirror, when inspected, displays a Sword Shadow.
Moreover, the major Immortal Sects share resources in this regard; it’s no secret.
Over the years, what sort of Immortal Body will manifest on the Earth Observing Mirror has been documented.
But the Sword Shadow before them had no record in the mirror.
Full of surprise, Mi Lian said, “That Sharp Sword has a golden light; such a shadow should be a Golden Sword Immortal Body, but the Golden Sword Immortal Body is an Immortal Body, not an Ancient Immortal Body.
Moreover, a Golden Sword Immortal Body doesn’t have that many flying swords.
Thus, we do not know what Immortal Body she possesses.
Brother Bei Yan, this disciple…”
“Of course, she must be taken in.
You continue to check; I will go down and speak with her for a moment.”
Little Bei Yan flew down straight from the air and landed in front of the little girl.
The common folk around, upon seeing this, immediately turned their attention to the little girl, and many began to discuss among themselves.
“This light seems to be stronger than the light from Liao Laotie’s daughter!”
“Does that mean that this little girl has better cultivation talent than Liao Laotie’s daughter?”
“Who is this girl?
How come I’ve never seen her in our city before?”
“Our city is so large, with so many children, how could you recognize everyone?”
“This little girl is different; such a beautiful child would have become known to everyone in Jijiang City if she were from here.”
“You’re right.
This little girl must have traveled here from another town to our Jijiang City.”
