From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 358 Bai Yun asks his conscience
Li Yang was also in the cloud, even right there on the scene, watching the 20,000 candidates rushing into the cloud with excitement and nervousness.

Because of the mystery of Yang Shen, the candidates around him couldn't see Li Yang at all.

Wang Shuhuan guessed correctly. There was indeed a formation in the clouds. The clouds dispersed in the morning and then re-shrouded the area. This was Li Yang rearranging the formation.

In the mist, Li Yang was looking at tens of thousands of newbies with great interest when a female Taoist in a plain robe walked straight up to him.

Li Yang glanced at it and shook his head helplessly.

Damn it, the Dao Heart is really a bug. His method of concealing his soul's breath cannot be hidden from this girl Yubao.

Yubao walked in the mist, looking left and right, as if he was taking a leisurely stroll in the garden. He then raised his head and looked at Li Yang in confusion: "Li Zhenjun, your first test seems a bit simple. Can it screen out people?"

Li Yang shook his head and said seriously: "This is a simplified and reconstructed formation of the Ghost Gate Formation and the Locking Mountain Formation. I call it the simplified version of the Soul-confusing Formation."

"This formation must be simple for you, but it is not so easy for ordinary people with complicated minds to pass..."

Li Yang smiled mysteriously. Just as he finished speaking, before Yubao could react, many candidates who were groping forward in the mist suddenly showed signs of abnormality.

In just a moment, ugly scenes emerged in the mist. Some people were extremely angry for no apparent reason, with fire in their eyes; some people suddenly burst into tears; some people suddenly laughed and danced. The worst one was the candidate who threw himself at the female candidate next to him with his eyes wide open and his body trembling.

The sudden scene caused the clouds and fog to be filled with loud shouts of fear.

The diffuse fog made me feel uneasy in the first place, and now my companions were going crazy for no apparent reason, which made the feeling of panic reach its peak.

"Humph!"

Li Yang snorted coldly, stretched out his hand, and immediately took those emotionally out-of-control candidates in the clouds and mist and broke through the clouds and landed at the foot of the mountain.

Most of these candidates who lost control of their emotions were still in a daze. It took them a long time to wake up from their strange emotions, and they were covered in cold sweat.

"What's going on? Wasn't I in the cloud? How did I come out?!"

"Strange, why was I so angry just now? It was like I wanted to kill someone?"

"Do you see that person above the clouds and mist? Is that the True Lord?"

"Master Zhen, please give us another chance! It was just an accident, I was not like this originally!"

The smarter ones reacted instantly and kowtowed towards Li Yang, begging for mercy.

Li Yang was high up in the clouds, and he just glanced at them indifferently. His voice echoed throughout the fields from Baiyun Mountain:
"The five colors make one blind, the five sounds make one deaf, the five flavors make one's mouth numb, hunting makes one's heart crazy, and rare goods hinder one's progress."

“If you can always let go of your desires, your mind will be calm; if you can clear your mind, your spirit will be clear.”

"If you can't control your own desires, you will definitely cause trouble and harm others if you are accepted into the mountain gate!"

When the candidates who were picked out of Yunwu heard this, they immediately knew that they had been eliminated and had no chance of entering the Taoist Academy. While they were upset, some of them were so angry that they mustered up the courage to start shouting loudly.
Intimidated by Li Yang's power, there were only one or two shouts at first, but gradually the sounds became louder and louder, as if to show that the law cannot punish everyone.

"Why do you say that you can't cultivate immortality if you're in a bad mood? I've seen protagonists with bad tempers in novels!"

"Can I be given another chance if I fail? In ancient times, could I take the imperial examination repeatedly?"

"I didn't lose control of my emotions just now. The selection criteria are up to you, Master, to judge!"

There were so many different things like this. Li Yang frowned and summoned his spiritual energy: "Silence!"

Squeak... Squeak... "The reason has been made clear. Baiyun Taoist Temple is not a charity. I don't need to explain it to you any more. Those who are eliminated should leave as soon as possible. If there is any trouble again, the latter will be responsible for it themselves!"

An extremely sharp sound instantly attacked everyone's eardrums.

Logically speaking, after hearing this, everyone should have known what was good and what was bad. However, seeing that the immortal fate was gone and there was no hope of entering Baiyun Taoist Temple, it was inevitable to go to extremes. In such a scene and such an atmosphere, who could remain calm?

The noise died down only for a moment, then started up again.

boom!
A powerful pressure suddenly came from above the clouds. The eliminated candidates at the foot of the mountain all ducked down, their legs going limp and unable to control themselves.

After the feeling passed, they looked at each other, and their faces turned pale.

"If you cause any more trouble, you will bear the consequences at your own risk!"

There was silence.

The efficiency of screening out candidates was very fast. Li Yang and Chi Yanhong, who were hidden in the mist, had full spiritual awareness and every moment, candidates who were out of control of their emotions were picked out from the mist.

As more and more candidates lost control of their emotions due to elimination, the waiting area at the foot of the mountain was filled with candidates in a short time.

The candidates who were eliminated earlier looked at the people around them who were gradually being eliminated, and suddenly they felt relaxed. An indescribable feeling grew in their hearts, and they were filled with satisfaction and pleasure.

Yubao patrolled among the clouds and mist, helping Li Yang to control all the candidates who were out of control of their emotions.

She was a little puzzled as to how such a simple test could eliminate so many people.
"Through the clouds and fog, you have passed the first test. The rest of the candidates please keep your mind calm and move forward as quickly as possible!"

Yubao, Zhu Ling and Zhao Ziyao reminded loudly, and the remaining candidates in the mist looked at each other, trying their best to maintain their composure.

Wang Shuhuan was in a very bad situation in the clouds and mist, with beads of sweat all over his forehead.

Many illusions appeared before his eyes.
In a trance, he saw a shining blue sword ball and a bright girl with a high ponytail.

That was what made him admired by everyone, but it was also what made him fall into the abyss and turn into dust.
It is what makes him successful, but it is also what destroys him.

He seemed to see again the girl with the high ponytail standing on tiptoe and looking at him with curved eyebrows.

Wang Shuhuan smiled, looking at the bright and beautiful girl who appeared in front of him again, and his smile was extremely sad: "The first time we met, you fought for the sword pill in Fangshan, and then you knelt on the misty Qingcheng Mountain, stubbornly refusing to get up."

"The second time we met, you were lying on the table sickly, drinking milk tea, trying to resist the restricted future, and asked me if I could help you."

The smile on Wang Shuhuan's face slowly faded. The high-ponytailed girl in front of him looked at him innocently, with a puzzled look on her face.

"The third time we met, you were like a little phoenix covered in pearls and jade, standing proudly in front of me, saying you wanted to help me with a look of pity, but in fact you wanted to squeeze out the last bit of value from me."

Wang Shuhuan's voice was very calm, as if he was telling someone else's story.
He knew that the girl in front of him was his own illusion, a very beautiful illusion that existed only in his own consciousness.
His hand slowly touched the girl's face, and the girl put her face on his hand at the right time, looking very gentle and cute.

Wang Shuhuan closed his eyes, unable to bear to watch any longer:

"Unfortunately, you are not her."

"Besides, even if it's her, she's not worthy of being my inner demon now."
