137: Huyan Zhuo Test

"Ah, yes, yes, Sect Master, rest assured, I will pass the test as soon as possible to serve the sect."

Hearing Jiang Chen urging him to take the test, Huyan Zhuo quickly swallowed the longevity fruit in his hand.

Then he took the last longevity fruit from the table, pulled the still bewildered Huyan Xiaoyao, and walked out of the main hall.

"Grandpa, what exactly is going on? What test are you going to take?"

After they were some distance from the main hall, Huyan Xiaoyao came back to her senses and asked Huyan Zhuo, who was still eating longevity fruit.

"Hehe, Grandpa has agreed to join Qingtian Sect so I can see you every day. Now, as long as I pass the test, I can at least become an elder."

"How about it? Isn't Grandpa amazing?"

Huyan Zhuo swallowed the last longevity fruit into his stomach, looking proudly at Huyan Xiaoyao.

"What? Grandpa, you're joining Qingtian Sect too?"

Upon hearing this, Huyan Xiaoyao's small mouth dropped open in shock.

Huyan Zhuo was a mighty Peak Great Emperor, one of the best existences on the entire Canglan Continent. Now even he wanted to join Qingtian Sect, which was simply too incredible.

"Alas, if it weren't for you, Grandpa wouldn't be willing to be subservient to others. You must understand Grandpa's painstaking efforts."

Looking at Huyan Xiaoyao's shocked expression, Huyan Zhuo deliberately put on a helpless facade.

"Hmph, for me? Old Thing, do you take me for a fool?"

Huyan Xiaoyao looked at Huyan Zhuo's helpless expression and mercilessly exposed him, saying, "You just ate a longevity fruit, didn't you? I think you're afraid of death and also covet my Qingtian Sect's Immortal Crystals, that's why you're doing this, right?"

"What 'for me'? Old Thing, don't you even blush when you lie?" Huyan Xiaoyao pouted and retorted.

"Heh, you little brat, your wings have grown hard, haven't they? How dare you speak to your grandpa like that?"

Seeing his intention exposed by Huyan Xiaoyao.

Huyan Zhuo glared, pretending he was about to punish Huyan Xiaoyao.

Although he indeed had that thought, he couldn't say it aloud. He was a dignified Peak Great Emperor; didn't he have any face?

"Hmph hmph, Old Thing, I must remind you, this is Qingtian Sect, and I am an Inner Sect Disciple of Qingtian Sect. If you dare to lay a hand on me, I will report it to the elder and have him settle the score with you."

Seeing that Huyan Zhuo dared to be fierce with her, Huyan Xiaoyao quickly brought up Qingtian Sect's elder to threaten him.

"No, no!"

Hearing that Huyan Xiaoyao was going to find an elder, Huyan Zhuo's eyes instantly softened. "Good granddaughter, how could Grandpa bear to lay a hand on you? You are Grandpa's precious darling."

Huyan Zhuo's face was wreathed in smiles.

He originally just wanted to scare Huyan Xiaoyao; even if they weren't in Qingtian Sect, he wouldn't bear to punish her.

And now that they were inside Qingtian Sect, he absolutely dared not entertain such a thought. After all, Qingtian Sect had three Great Emperors. If he touched an Inner Sect Disciple of Qingtian Sect, who knew what trouble might arise.

Getting a beating would be a minor matter then; if he lost the opportunity for the test, that would be a huge loss.

"Hehe, it's best if you don't. Then I'm going to cultivate."

Looking at Huyan Zhuo's benevolent face, Huyan Xiaoyao smiled smugly, then quickly ran towards the Time Pagoda.

"Hmph, you little girl, daring to threaten your grandpa. Just wait until I become an elder of Qingtian Sect, then I'll properly teach you a lesson."

Huyan Zhuo watched Huyan Xiaoyao leave, then found Li Big Saber, who was waiting in the square, ready to begin the test.

In the square.

Li Big Saber took out the illusion demon mirror and tossed it into the sky. After the illusion demon mirror widened to tens of zhang, he said to Huyan Zhuo, "Fellow Daoist Huyan, are you ready? The test is about to begin."

"Huh?"

Looking at the huge illusion demon mirror, Huyan Zhuo was bewildered.

He was a refining master; why would he not be tested on refining-related things, but instead be tested by a mirror?

"Great Elder, what is this? Aren't we supposed to test refining ability?" Huyan Zhuo came back to his senses and asked curiously.

No matter how he looked at it, this illusion demon mirror didn't seem related to refining, so he couldn't help but ask.

Facing Huyan Zhuo's question, Li Big Saber was not impatient, but smiled faintly, "This item is our Qingtian Sect's supreme treasure of illusion. Everyone who enters the sect must pass its test."

"Illusion treasure?"

Huyan Zhuo's expression became even more bewildered.

He was a refiner; if he wasn't testing his refining ability, what was he doing entering an illusion?

Moreover, he was a Peak Great Emperor. What illusion on this Canglan Continent could make him lose himself within it?

"Great Elder, are you sure the test only requires passing through this illusion treasure?" Huyan Zhuo asked again cautiously.

Passing through an illusion treasure was even simpler than testing his refining ability; he could basically go in and come right out.

After all, with his Great Emperor Dao Heart, which was as hard as iron, he had long been immune to all laws.

"Of course, Fellow Daoist Huyan, please enter. Once you pass the test, we will be fellow disciples." Li Big Saber smiled, urging Huyan Zhuo to enter the Illusion Demon Realm.

How could he not know Huyan Zhuo's thoughts?

Although a Great Emperor's Dao Heart was already firm, this illusion demon mirror was a supreme treasure given to him by Jiang Chen, and he had even gone in to play during his leisure time.

Before entering, his thoughts were the same as Huyan Zhuo's, thinking he would just go in and come out after a quick turn.

But that time, as soon as he entered, he fell into an extremely realistic illusion. If Wang Three Spears hadn't passed by, he wouldn't have known how long he would have stayed inside.

So, it was impossible for Huyan Zhuo to stay sober in the illusion demon mirror.

"Alright, Great Elder, then this old man will go in." Huyan Zhuo stopped talking nonsense and flashed into the illusion demon mirror.

"Buzz!"

As Huyan Zhuo entered.

The entire illusion demon mirror emitted faint hums, then the mirror surface flashed, and Huyan Zhuo's figure in the illusion appeared.

At this moment, he had already joined Qingtian Sect and was in a refining room, refining sect uniforms and other items day and night.

He was completely immersed in it, without the slightest hint of awareness.

As days passed, a large number of artifacts were refined by him, and during his rest, he would look at the sect disciples wearing the clothes he refined, a smile spreading across his face.

Just as he was pacing within the sect, three figures emitting the oppressive aura of Peak Great Emperors appeared above Qingtian Sect.

As the aura from these people spread, the void near Qingtian Sect cracked, and the Mountain Gate also collapsed.

Countless Qingtian Sect disciples, their faces filled with fear, fled in all directions.

"Hmph! How dare you!"

"Who dares to invade my Qingtian Sect?"

Huyan Zhuo, his face full of rage, instantly appeared before the three.

Facing three enemies of the same realm, he did not choose to flee.

Instead, he used his Emperor's might to fully block the three's aura, so that more Qingtian Sect disciples below could escape.

"Haha, your sect master has taken all the elders to the stars above. Today is the day your Qingtian Sect perishes."

"That's right, Qingtian Sect is doomed today."

"Die, how can you alone withstand the three of us?"

The three men sneered, attacking Huyan Zhuo with full force.

"Hmph, a few cowardly, hiding wretches dare to invade my Qingtian Sect. This old man will risk his old life today to take one of you down with me."

Huyan Zhuo burned his Emperor's body, fighting the three with his life.

He did this so that the three would have no spare energy to attack the lower-ranked Qingtian Sect disciples below, allowing these disciples to escape as much as possible, thereby preserving Qingtian Sect's young strength.
