In the square outside the main hall of the Dark Cult, a dozen carriages were neatly arranged. In one of the carriages, a young man with unkempt hair and dirty face was curled up in a corner of the carriage. He looked at the confused and confused faces of the young men around him and thought to himself.
This youth was Long Jun. After he had parted ways with Long Xiu and left Qingcheng Mountain, he had relied on begging for a living. He hadn't expected that because he hadn't eaten for several days, he would actually faint on the official road.
Although he didn't know where he was, Long Jun wasn't as lost as the other children. After all, in Long Jun's heart, no matter how bad his life was now, it couldn't be worse than his life in the past seven years.
Moreover, Long Jun had a kind of expectation in his heart, a kind of expectation for strength.
Just a moment ago, Long Jun occasionally peeked out of the carriage and found that the carriage he was riding was actually moving in the sky. Long Jun's heart skipped a beat. He looked around and saw that the carriage was heading towards a mountain. A black pillar of air shot up into the sky from the top of the mountain, and there were five mountains of five different colors around it.
Although Long Jun didn't say anything, his heart was filled with excitement. He knew that he might have a chance to be like Long Xiu.
The carriage entered the manor on the mountainside of the black mountain. Long Jun began to secretly size up the manor.
There were many black fake mountains in the courtyard, and they emitted bursts of black fog, which was exactly the same as the black pillar of air that soared into the sky from the top of the mountain. There were all kinds of animals and plants that Long Jun had never even heard of, let alone seen before. However, the animals and plants on this mountain had the same characteristic, which was that they all emitted a faint black light.
Long Jun sized it up for a while and didn't see anything else. After all, it was impossible for Long Jun to discover the various array formations. Although the number of array formations here had reached an outrageous level, it was impossible to see them.
"Two protectors, five envoys, this is the place. The children are in these carriages.”Just as Long Jun was feeling a little tired, a flattering voice was heard.
Then, a sinister voice sounded." Call them out.”
"Yes, Lord Gold Messenger." The flattering voice first lowered its voice and then shouted at the convoy,"The brats in the car are all out.”
Hearing his voice, Long Jun and the other children all timidly crawled out of the carriage.
"Whoa!" Looking at the children in front of them, the seven of them frowned. Back then, in order to complete the mission in a hurry, Zhu Can did not bathe the children after he brought them here, causing them to be dirty. Even Long Jun, a professional wanderer, did not seem too outstanding among them.
"This Zhu Can." Water Emissary Nangong Shanrou sighed and said to the other six,""I don't think any of us will test their aptitude one by one.”
Everyone frowned and nodded in agreement.
"How about this, the seven of us can each choose ten people at will. As for their aptitude, it will depend on their luck. What do you think?”Nangong Shanrou glanced at the crowd.
“。。。Alright then."
Although they weren't very satisfied, everyone still decided to agree. After all, no one could lower themselves to test the aptitude of these children who seemed to have crawled out of the garbage dump. Moreover, it was fair to do so.
Everyone had already reached an agreement, so they each chose ten people to return to their respective mountains.
It should be mentioned that the entire Mountain Range of Death was where the headquarters of the Dark Cult, one of the Three Dao and One Cult, was located. It had already been introduced that the entire Death Mountain Range was made up of six mountains. They were the Central Underworld Mountain, where the Main Hall of the Underworld Cult was located. Sect Leader Duan Wuji, Left Protector Lan Tu, and Right Protector Zhangsun Hong lived there. The surrounding five mountains were occupied by the five divisions of the Dark Cult, and each of the five envoys was in charge of one mountain and one division.
After distributing the children, the ordinary-looking fire emissary Dongfang Yan led the ten people he had chosen to the Fire Sect Manor of the Blazing Mountain in the Five Elements Mountain. Long Jun was among the ten children.
This time, he randomly selected ten children. Although some of them were not satisfied, the fire emissary was very satisfied. Not for anything else, but because he could finally have an equal opportunity with others.
In the Dark Religion, although the Fire Envoy was in charge of the Fire Sect, due to his limited aptitude, his strength was the weakest among the Two Guardians and Five Elements Envoys. This also led to the Fire Envoy always getting the last and the worst whenever there was a good thing. This was also the reason why the two brothers, Wu Yuan and Wu Fang, who were guarding the mountain gate, made fun of the Fire Envoy.
However, this time, thanks to his disciple Zhu Can not bathing these children, he had the same qualifications as everyone else. The fire emissary was extremely happy. Naturally, Zhu Can's position in the fire emissary's heart had risen by a large margin.
After returning to the Fire Sect's manor, Dongfang Yan called all the Fire Sect disciples in the manor to the hall, saying that he had something to announce.
The Fire Sect was indeed the weakest among the eight sects of the Dark Religion. There were only 17 disciples in total.
After everyone gathered in the main hall of the Fire Sect's manor, Dongfang Yan sat in the middle of the main hall with a happy expression. He pointed at Long Jun and the other ten people and said with a smile,""This time, my Fire Sect has added another ten disciples. You have to properly guide the ten junior brothers in their future cultivation, understand?”
When the Fire Sect disciples in the main hall saw that their master Dongfang Yan had spoken, they all agreed. However, when everyone saw the appearance of the ten new junior brothers, they could not help but laugh at the same time.
At this moment, the beggar-like Long Jun and the other ten people were emitting a stench, causing everyone in the hall to feel nauseous.
"Alright, Seventeen, take the ten new junior brothers down to wash up.”Dongfang Yan also felt that something was wrong and ordered the people in the hall.
"Yes, Master." A skinny young man walked out from the crowd and said to Long Jun and the others,"Junior brothers, follow me."
With that, he led Long Jun and the others out of the Fire Sect's main hall and went to the waterfall at the back of the mountain to bathe.
After they left, Dongfang Yan coughed lightly to attract the attention of the disciples.""Alright, let's get down to business. Zhu Can, come out.”
"Yes, Master." When Zhu Can, who was originally standing in the crowd, saw his master call out to him, he knew that he was about to be awe-inspiring and hurriedly replied loudly.
Dongfang Yan looked at Zhu Can and said with a smile,"Zhu Can, you've done a great job on the mission the Cult Master sent you. It wasn't in vain that I spent so much effort to help you fight for it. I'll give you your reward this time when you come to my bedroom.”
"Thank you for your pity, Master. It's all because of Master's good teachings.”Zhu Can made a symbolic humble gesture and even flattered him, causing everyone to feel disdain for him.
