Chapter 1195 Gu Ye's Assessment
Xu Changshou glanced around the main hall and noticed that there were already six or seven people waiting for them.
Among them were three cultivators at the Mahayana realm: Venerable Honglian, Venerable Wanyan, and Venerable Guye.
In addition, there are Xu Ye's senior brother Yang Yanjing and Xu Ye's senior sister Zhao Xuemei.
The last one was a young man with a pointed chin, and his cultivation level was at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm.
At this moment, the young man with the prominent chin was scrutinizing Xu Changshou with a condescending gaze.
"Are you Xu Changshou?"
The one who spoke was Venerable Guye. Xu Changshou had privately asked him to refine pills, so he naturally knew Xu Changshou, but he pretended not to know him at the moment.
"Disciple Xu Changshou pays respects to Venerable Guye, Venerable Bailian, and Venerable Wanyan."
Xu Changshou clasped his hands and respectfully bowed to the three venerable ones.
Venerable Red Lotus glanced at Xu Changshou and said, "Xu Changshou, Xu Ye has told you about this mission, right?"
"Yes, Venerable Red Lotus," Xu Changshou nodded.
Venerable Honglian continued, "According to Venerable Guye's wishes, your group must have someone skilled in lightning attacks, so Xu Ye recommended you. However, Venerable Guye will test you to assess your personal abilities. Only after passing the test can you join this mission."
"Disciple understands," Xu Changshou replied respectfully.
Venerable Honglian glanced at Venerable Guye and smiled, "Junior Brother Guye, we can begin."
"Okay! Follow me!"
Venerable Guye glanced at Xu Changshou, then stepped out of the main hall and onto the platform at the entrance.
Xu Changshou followed and went out, and the others followed suit.
After glancing at Xu Ye, Venerable Guye said, "Xu Changshou, you are skilled in lightning attacks, right?"
Xu Changshou nodded.
Venerable Guye said, "Now, you have three chances to attack me with lightning-attribute spells."
"This……"
Xu Changshou was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly and said, "This disciple wouldn't dare!"
"Don't worry, you can't hurt me," Venerable Guye said calmly with a smile.
"All right!"
Xu Changshou nodded, his eyes flickering.
What methods should be used to attack Venerable Guye?
Venerable Guye spoke again: "Remember, you only have three chances, so you must unleash your strongest attack."
Xu Changshou smiled. Since there were three chances, things would be much easier.
He knows two types of lightning-attribute spells: Minor Lightning Punishment and True Lightning Technique.
The attacks of the Lesser Thunder Punishment Technique include: Thunder Interception Finger, Thunder Fist of Ten Thousand Thunders, Thunder Heart Seal, and other spells.
Among them, the Thunder-Intercepting Finger is the weakest attack, while the Thunder Heart Seal is the strongest.
For his first attack, Xu Changshou decided to use the Thunder-Intercepting Finger, and for his second attack, he would use the Thunder Heart Seal. If neither of these attacks would pass the test, then he would use the True Thunder Technique.
The True Thunder Technique is a level-one cultivation method, so it will definitely pass the test. However, in Xu Changshou's opinion, he should try his best not to reveal his level-one cultivation method.
His cultivation level is currently low, and revealing the True Thunder Technique too early would not do him any good.
"Thunder Finger!"
Thinking of this, Xu Changshou launched an attack. He quickly made hand seals, and endless lightning-attribute spiritual energy condensed in his hands.
then.
Xu Changshou extended his index finger and pointed it at Venerable Guye from a distance.
laugh!
A cylindrical, silver-white lightning bolt, as thick as an arm, condensed and transformed into a long rainbow, shooting towards Venerable Guye.
It was incredibly fast, like a thunder dragon sweeping across the sky, and in the blink of an eye it arrived in front of Venerable Guye, slamming down fiercely on him.
call!
With a wave of his sleeve, Venerable Guye unleashed a powerful gust of wind that shattered the cylindrical lightning bolt.
Looking at Xu Changshou again, a hint of surprise flashed in Gu Ye Venerable's eyes.
"Not bad!"
Venerable Guye nodded in satisfaction and said, "I never expected that among the menial disciples, someone could have mastered lightning magic to this extent. It's rare, truly rare."
"Thank you, Venerable Guye."
Xu Changshou clasped his hands in a fist salute and asked, "Does this disciple still wish to make a move?"
Venerable Guye shook his head and smiled, "No need, you have already passed the test and can go with us to carry out the mission."
"Thank you!"
Xu Changshou thanked him again.
He was somewhat surprised, though, because this was his weakest lightning attack, and he had actually passed the test so easily.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. With runes enhancing his attacks, any move he makes is much more powerful than the original.
The "Following the Person to Intercept Thunder Finger" technique is just an ordinary move, but in the realm of human-level martial arts, its attack power is absolutely top-notch.
Seeing that Xu Changshou had passed the test, Xu Ye smiled and said, "Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, I knew that Junior Brother Changshou would definitely pass the test. He is the most powerful. Back when he was in the Nascent Soul stage, he was the strongest fighter in our Canghai Sect."
Yang Yanjing nodded in satisfaction and smiled, "Since he passed the test, there's naturally no problem."
Zhao Xuemei also smiled and said, "Junior Brother Xu, your friend is quite good, more capable than I imagined."
"Humph!"
At that moment, a discordant snort suddenly rang out.
The young man with the pointed chin said, "He's just a menial servant, what's so great about him? If you ask me, it's better not to let him come on this mission. Letting him come will only be a burden to us."
"impossible!"
Xu Ye frowned and retorted, "Junior Brother Changshou is very powerful; his combat strength is unmatched among his peers."
"Hahaha!"
The young man with the pointed chin laughed loudly and said, "Junior Brother Xu Ye, you just said that Xu Changshou was invincible when he was in the Nascent Soul stage. Can the Nascent Soul stage represent the Void Refinement stage?"
"I……"
Xu Ye wanted to retort, but Yang Yanjing stopped him with a look.
He glanced at the young man with the pointed chin and said, "Junior Brother Song, there's no point in saying more. Since Venerable Guye and the others have agreed to let Xu Changshou go, what else can we say?"
"That's true."
The young man with the pointed chin seemed somewhat afraid of Yang Yanjing. Once the latter spoke, he stopped saying anything more.
"Junior Brother Changshou, come quickly!" Xu Ye waved to Xu Changshou, beckoning him over.
Xu Changshou nodded slightly and walked steadily toward them.
When he got closer, Xu Ye said, "This is my senior brother Yang Yanjing, and this is my senior sister Zhao Xuemei. You've met them before."
"Hello, Senior Brother Yang and Senior Sister Zhao," Xu Changshou greeted them with a smile.
"Hello, Junior Brother Xu!"
Both of them gave each other a friendly smile.
Yang Yanjing pointed to the young man with the pointed chin and introduced him: "Junior Brother Xu, this is Venerable Wanyan's eldest disciple, Song Qingwen. Junior Brother Song will also be with us on this mission."
"Greetings, Senior Brother Song." Xu Changshuo greeted him with a slight fist and palm salute.
"Ok!"
Song Qingwen simply grunted in response and didn't say anything more, maintaining a haughty attitude.
Xu Changshou showed no dissatisfaction with his cold attitude and continued to smile obsequiously.
Seeing his obsequious smile, a hint of disdain flashed in Song Qingwen's eyes.
