Chapter 33

"Hmm?" True Person Teng Qiu outside the hall suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the founder's statue, with a look of shock vaguely on his face.

An elderly Daoist in the hall held a pen in one hand and a book in the other, and at this moment his eyes were wide open, not daring to be distracted at all. He was specially responsible for recording the founder's grace. In the past few decades, this was only the second time he had seen such a big strange phenomenon. The last time was twenty years ago when Zhang Sheng was initiated.

The founder's statue suddenly had spirit in its eyes, and the whole statue seemed to come alive, lowering its head to look at the group of disciples kneeling and bowing.

True Person Teng Qiu looked calm, but one hand subconsciously gripped his sleeve tightly.

The founder's statue flowed with light all over its body, and suddenly a point of light flew out from its waist and merged into the body of Yan Ming of the East Sea.

This result surprised everyone, including Yan Ming's family outside the hall. Others didn't know and thought Yan Ming was a disciple of the Primordial Palace like others, but the Yan family knew very well in their hearts that Yan Ming actually belonged to the disciple of the cave heaven below, just borrowing to study in the Primordial Palace, and would have to find a way to record into the sect wall in a few years.

But now Yan Ming suddenly got the founder's grace, which was different. This was equivalent to being personally appointed by the founder!

The person in charge of the Yan family was a tall, strong, and fierce man, who was also Yan Ming's father. After reacting, he was so happy that he could almost not control himself. He took out a handful of pearls from his waist bag and was ready to scatter them into the crowd.

Fortunately, he immediately realized that this was the Primordial Palace, and most of the people standing around were high-ranking families. Among these families, the East Sea Yan family couldn't even squeeze into the top ten, let alone the top three. If these pearls were scattered, he would offend many people. Fortunately, he reacted fast enough, pulled back from the brink, and quietly took his hand back.

The old Daoist recording in the hall saw it clearly. That point of light came from the jade pendant on the founder's waist. That jade pendant was different from the crown, and it was also a magic treasure with a small origin, so the grace was naturally different from the ordinary. So the old Daoist made a mark on the side of Yan Ming's name and muttered to himself, "This is a person with wealth."

Several young deacon disciples beside him had long pricked up their ears, and when they heard this, they secretly wrote down Yan Ming's name.

Next, two more points of light flew out from the statue, coming from the jasper thumb ring and the book in its hand, respectively merging into the bodies of two teenagers. These two things had more origins, especially the book, which could additionally improve comprehension and played a huge role in crossing the tribulation and breaking through the barrier in the later stage of cultivation. This was a great talent, and the old Daoist naturally recorded it carefully, writing a full page eloquently.

But the founder's grace had not ended yet. Just as everyone was praising, an immortal sword suddenly became clear, shining brightly, and then a sword intent shot into Xiang Xiaoyu's body!

Although the founder had many treasures, when it came to the weight of killing, the four immortal swords were naturally second to none. This sword intent was obviously heavier than the previous grace.

The burly man slowly grinned, laughed loudly, turned his head to Zhang Sheng and said, "How about it? Is my Xiao Nian's grandson okay?"

Zhang Sheng nodded and said seriously, "Indeed not bad! Just one immortal sword less than I was."

Xiao Nian's smile froze on his face, and the words he was going to say later were all blocked back.

He looked Zhang Sheng up and down for a while, and said with a tsk tsk sound, "No wonder it is said that the disciples of the Heavenly Green Hall are all high in combat power! As a disciple of your hall, if the combat power is not high, I am afraid that you will not live for a few months outside."

Seeing that Feng Yuanjun County already had four people who had obtained the founder's grace, but the strange phenomenon of the founder's statue had not yet dissipated, there was some commotion in the crowd watching. Suddenly, a light shot out from the center of the founder's statue's eyebrows and merged into Behind Bao Yun's body!

True Person Teng Qiu raised his eyebrows, and a look of shock flashed across his face.

The old Daoist responsible for recording had a trembling hand, and his pen almost fell to the ground. The center of the eyebrows is the sea of consciousness, where the Imperial Scenery is achieved, and it is one of the most important parts of the Dao body. From this, it can be seen that the grace originating from the center of the founder's statue's eyebrows must be extraordinary.

But the old Daoist thought hard and searched his memory, but couldn't think of anyone who had received such grace. That is to say, the grace originating from the center of the eyebrows was likely the first time it had appeared.

The Bao family had extraordinary knowledge and were all ecstatic. Even the old man who had never changed his expression was rarely stroking his beard and smiling. The importance of this grace of Behind Bao Yun was likely still above Xiang Xiaoyu's immortal sword. But it was hard to say whether it was better or worse than Zhang Sheng's two immortal swords.

It was just that after Behind Bao Yun received the grace, the strange phenomenon of the founder's statue had not yet disappeared! So everyone's eyes fell on Wei Yuan.

Among the people present, there were many people with eyes reaching the sky, who knew a little about the specialness of Feng Yuanjun County. Wei Yuan was able to suppress many children of high-ranking families and break out of the unprecedentedly fierce Feng Yuanjun County, which was obviously talented. And as everyone knows, Wei Yuan's background is the Heavenly Green Hall, which is equivalent to having no background, so the gold content of this first place in the unified examination is greatly improved.

Therefore, everyone was curious, wanting to see what grace Wei Yuan could get, and whether it would exceed the record set by Zhang Sheng twenty years ago. If this was really the case, then the master and disciple would also be a good story.

At this moment, high in the void, two terrifying auras had been confronting each other for I don't know how long, and Wei Yuan's consciousness was sandwiched in the middle, completely unable to move. The gaze from high above was no longer examining Wei Yuan, but watching the desolate and ancient huge object. And that huge object seemed to be in another world, and at this moment was slowly approaching, as if trying to find a way to this world.

A sigh seemed to come faintly from high in the sky, and Wei Yuan's consciousness was no longer shackled, but returned to his body like a bird returning to its nest. All illusions disappeared.

At this time, everyone's sacrificial text had long been recited, but the strange phenomenon of the founder's statue did not disappear, so this batch of disciples had to wait. When Wei Yuan opened his eyes, he saw a piece of gray mist flying out from the huge stone stepped on by the founder's statue and merging into his body.

True Person Teng Qiu showed doubt, and the recording old Daoist was also stunned. This time he could be sure that there had never been any grace originating from the huge stone under the statue's feet.

A young ritual Daoist asked his companion in a low voice, "Isn't that stone part of the natural ground? Could it also be the founder's statue?"

The companion was also hesitant, "The statue is the statue, the foundation is the foundation... right?"

Not only the young Daoist was confused, but the recording old Daoist was also in a dilemma, not knowing whether this counted as the founder's grace. He knew very well that the huge stone under the statue's feet was not a separate piece, but part of the entire mountain body, and more parts were actually under the hall floor tiles. That is to say, the huge stone was actually part of the Empty Valley Hanging Green, and the founder's statue did not include this huge stone.

However, at this time, True Person Teng Qiu seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly said loudly, "All six disciples of Feng Yuanjun County have received the founder's grace! Next batch."

With the True Person speaking, there was no dispute about this matter. The old Daoist wrote like flying, and Wei Yuan was also considered to have received the founder's grace. Until the last stroke fell, the old Daoist suddenly remembered one thing, and his pen trembled.

Three thousand eight hundred years ago, when the founder came from the west with a sword and founded the Primordial Palace, the boundary stone he placed seemed to be under the statue.

This time, the six disciples of Feng Yuanjun County received the founder's grace at the same time, and the number even exceeded the sum of the previous four major states. As a result, no one dared to question the number of quotas in Feng Yuanjun County anymore, and could only sigh at the great magical powers and far-reaching layout of the gatekeepers.
