chapter 3 Opportunity from heaven casts ancient veins

"Pattering~~~"

A light rain began to fall in the sky, as if it was saying goodbye to those who were leaving, and it seemed to be washing away the filth in the world, and the air became much fresher.

William Ye walked on the stone road.

He had never found the road leading to the External Cultivation Academy so difficult.

My steps have never been heavier.

The road that used to be completed in a short time now seems to have taken a year and has not been completed yet. It is so long, so bumpy, and my feet are so heavy.

It's getting late.

Along the way.

The gossips of the people in the Internal Cultivation Academy never stopped, and they kept buzzing in his ears.

"Are you walking so slowly because you want to stay in the Internal Cultivation Academy?"

"Get out of the Internal Cultivation Academy quickly. The External Cultivation Academy is your destination for the rest of your life. Don't ever think about coming back again. Every time there is a genius like you, the resources of us people will be reduced!"

"Looking at his lost look, he must be stupid, right?"

"I think you are crazy. Not everyone can bear this kind of blow!"

"It would be better to die!"

"..."

call--

The night wind blew by and it was very cool.

Amidst such rumors, William Ye dragged his long figure and left the Internal Cultivation Academy.

"Crack!"

"Boom!"

Thunder exploded in the sky.

"Crash!"

It rained heavily.

On the ground, big raindrops splashed water, but they dissipated in the blink of an eye.

The raindrops fell and hit William Ye's face, body and hands.

He felt some pain.

"Boom - boom -"

It suddenly became dark.

Thunder rolls.

It rained heavily.

The brothers in the External Cultivation Academy hurried to their respective residences one by one.

in a blink.

In the originally chaotic External Cultivation Academy, there were no more people to be seen on the road.

William Ye dragged his tired body, looked at the rain-covered road on the ground, and walked towards the unknown front step by step.

After being demoted to the External Cultivation Academy , he first had to report to the Hall of Stewards of the External Cultivation Academy , and then he could be assigned his own residence and some basic equipment.

In the pouring rain, when he arrived at the Hall of Stewards in the External Cultivation Academy , he almost had no energy left to speak.

Standing at the door of the Hall of Stewards.

Looking up at the middle-aged man sitting behind the long table, William Ye weakly opened his mouth with difficulty, but before he could speak, a small wooden sign was thrown out from behind the long table.

at the same time.

A word full of dissatisfaction floated:

"snort!"

"Now that I've been demoted, I have to have the awareness I need. Don't you even know how to be punctual? If you hadn't delayed me, I should have arrived at Goulan an hour ago. I might have entered my Stella house by now. Such a gentle place..."

"The residence assigned to you is No. Dingjiujiujiu in the southeast corner. The small mud house is about to collapse. You can repair it yourself another day, so as not to waste family resources."

The Elder of the Hall of Stewards waved his hand, and a small wooden sign flew out.

"Hurry up and get your identity tag and get out!"

The small wooden sign flew out and fell into the rain.

William Ye bent down to pick it up with difficulty.

Just bend over.

There was another crash overhead.

"Bang!"

The door of the Hall of Stewards was slammed shut.

In his peripheral vision, William Ye saw the elder of the External Cultivation Academy hurriedly leaving with an umbrella, and the road he left was not the direction back to the residence of the Elder.

There is water on the ground.

William Ye reached out and picked up the small wooden sign.

On the rain-soaked wooden sign, there were only three words engraved on the front:

William Ye.

On the back of the wooden sign, there are two words engraved:

External Cultivation Academy.

He straightened up with difficulty.

William Ye held the small wooden sign and glanced around confusedly. After identifying the direction of the earthen house at No. 999, he once again dragged his increasingly heavy steps towards the distance step by step.

"Boom!"

Dark clouds over the city.

An oppressive and dull aura spread across the world, as if a peerless ferocious beast was about to awaken at this moment and want to swallow up all the evil in the world.

Streams of silver lightning danced in the sky, accompanied by rolling thunder, as terrifying as the world was annihilated.

What Cultivator are most afraid of is thunder.

In this kind of weather, most Cultivator are reluctant to go out.

William Ye was hungry and cold, and the scenery in front of him became blurred.

Halfway there, in the pouring rain, he saw a dirty little girl running from a distance, holding a tattered bamboo basket in her arms.

The little girl ran towards him.

When passing by Ye Xiaotian, the little girl glanced at him. After recognizing him, she immediately stopped in her hurry. Her clear eyes were full of worry:

"Brother William, I heard that you are coming to the External Cultivation Academy today. It turns out to be true. Have you been assigned a place to live? Do you want me to take you there?"

William Ye was in a daze.

He didn't know who this little girl was, but the other party obviously knew him.

I thought I was here to ridicule him again, but it turned out not to be the case.

He forced out a smile with difficulty:

"The earthen house at No. 999, Ding."

The little girl's clear eyes were stunned for a moment, and then she said happily:

"We are neighbors!"

"No one wants to live in that direction. There are a thousand mud houses, and the total number of people living there is less than 200. They are all unwanted servants."

"Brother William Ye, you are so powerful, how could you be assigned there? I heard people say that no matter how bad the people from the Internal Cultivation Academy are, they are still in the A-grade small courtyard. How could it be..."

The little girl's face was full of confusion.

William Ye didn't say much.

There are some things that such a little girl cannot understand.

"It's raining too much, let's go home first."

The little girl pulled William Ye tattered clothes and led him towards the T-shaped earthen house in the External Cultivation Academy.

Not long after.

The two of them arrived at the place where the servants lived.

The little girl first took William Ye to the front of Tsuchiya No. 999.

"Here, brother, your earthen house is here."

One of her thin little hands was placed across her forehead to protect her from the rain, and the other thin little hand was raised, pointing with a thin finger to a small mud house in the heavy rain.

William Ye took a look.

It's exactly what the Elder of the Hall of Stewards said.

This earth house is really going to collapse.

One corner of the earthen house was tilted, and the thatch on the roof had long been turned into a pile of mud by the heavy rain and fell to the ground. It was unclear whether it was muddy water or rotten thatch.

"Squeak~~~"

The little girl pulled William Ye to the door of the earthen house, stretched out her skinny hands and pushed open the door.

"Crash!"

It was also raining in the earthen house, which was not much different from outside.

The little girl glanced at the room and pondered for a moment in her clear eyes:

"Brother William, why don't you come to my place? My house is not leaking and there is some wood for you to make a fire to keep warm, otherwise you will get cold."

William Ye waved his hand.

He still had some idea of ​​what life was like for ordinary people in the External Cultivation Academy.

If I use the little girl’s wood, she will have no more firewood for cooking tomorrow. Servants like them who are not taken in by cultivators live below the food and clothing line every day, doing the dirtiest, most tiring and most tiring things. Dangerous work.

"No, you can go home. Thank you."

The little girl looked at William Ye, her clear eyes flashing, and she didn't insist anymore.

After she helped William Ye into the earthen house where it was also raining heavily, she waved her hand, closed the door and left.

Amidst the patter of rain.

Through the cracks in the rotten wooden door, William Ye saw the little girl putting one hand on her forehead to protect her from the rain, holding the tattered bamboo basket in her arms tightly with the other hand, stepping on the water with her bare feet, and hurried towards the not far away place. A mud house ran.

William Ye watched the little girl run into a mud house.

He glanced at the number of the earthen house:

Ding——nine-nine-six.

Seeing the little girl enter the house, William Ye felt relieved.

He looked around his earthen house and saw that there was nothing except a bed made of stones and a rotten chair.

and.

Grass has grown on the stone bed and chairs.

never mind.

After William Ye murmured to himself, he looked at the corner of the bed where the rain was smallest, the only place where he could get shelter from the rain, so he moved over, huddled up, and leaned against this corner.

The rain flowed from his body, mixed with the blood on his hands, and dyed his clothes light red.

"Bang!"

He punched the wall.

"Why?"

William Ye was angry.

It was to protect Scarlett Fu that he was seriously injured by the man in black and Spirit Vein were disabled, but the other party was the first to propose breaking off the engagement.

So heartless?

The more he thought about it, the more the anger in his heart became uncontrollable.

This anger was not only directed at Scarlett Fu, but also at the disappointment of the Ye Family. He was thrown into the External Cultivation Academy like garbage, and everything he had had was taken back.

No compensation, no comfort.

Looking at the earth wall full of pits, he punched it again in anger.

"Bang!"

"Crack!"

William Ye was in pain.

This punch seemed to hit a hard stone, because not only did he feel the excruciating pain, but he also heard the sound of his fingers being broken.

Remove your fist and take a look.

"Huh?"

William Ye was shocked.

Through the light of lightning, he saw on the wall in front of him that the stone that broke his finger turned out to be a gray stone bead.

The stone beads were stained with the blood on his hands.

But.

William Ye immediately realized something was wrong.

because.

The blood stains on the stone beads were not washed away with the rain. Instead, they were soaked into the stone beads a little bit visible to the naked eye.

next moment.

Without waiting for William Ye to react.

"call out--"

A small sound broke through the air.

In William Ye's astonishment, the stone bead flashed away, hit his eyebrows, and disappeared directly into his forehead.

He only felt a pain between his eyebrows, as if he had been pricked by a needle.

"what?"

William Ye expression changed drastically.

Although his Spirit Vein are completely destroyed, he can still live his life like an ordinary person.

But it would be terrible if he was possessed by something evil. When the time comes, he would become someone else's puppet, and such a life would be worse than death.

Stone beads enter the body.

After wandering around in his mind, he seemed a little disappointed.

then.

The stone beads went all the way down to his ruined Dantian.

After walking around in the broken dantian, William Ye once again felt the disappointment coming from the stone beads.

Immediately afterwards.

The stone beads began to swim through the meridians of William Ye's body.

After seeing that his Spirit Vein were completely destroyed and he was worse than a useless person, there was a hint of excitement in Shizhu.

moment.

The stone beads returned to the dantian, and the gray stone beads began to glow and heat. William Ye clearly saw nine colors escaping from the stone beads and rushing toward his veins.

pain!

Excruciating pain!

"boom!"

In the dantian, a white flame suddenly emerged.

The fire began to spread rapidly in his Dantian and tendons.

"Bah!"

William Ye felt that his whole body was being roasted in the fire. The heat and pain were intertwined. The pain reached his soul. The extreme pain of watching his flesh and bones being burned and melted could only be understood after experiencing it personally. I understand.

"melted?"

"this……"

Even though he was in severe pain all over his body, William Ye was distracted at this time.

He saw his broken dantian melting, his broken Spirit Vein also melting, and energy of nine colors swimming in his dantian and tendons.

The tendons, Spirit Vein, Dantian, and sea of ​​consciousness were all burned away.

Such pain was tantamount to burning him alive. It hurt so much that his vision was blurred and his head was about to explode.

He felt like he was going to die.

"What the hell is this? Damn it!"

After cursing in his heart, Darla couldn't control his eyelids and pulled them down. The pain exceeded the limit he could bear, and he fell into a coma from the pain.

but.

Before he was completely unconscious, he faintly heard a sentence from the stone beads:

"The divine bead appears, good fortune is passed on, the ancient veins are forged, a new master is born..."
