Previously, on the way from Baopu Immortal Sect to Xuanyou Mansion, Duan Lingtian heard from Qi Tianming that Xuanyou Mansion had cultivated some powerful Immortal Lords from all directions for the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm...
There are several beings who have comprehended the six mysteries of a certain law, but there is only one being who has comprehended the seven mysteries of a certain law!
The being who understood the seven mysteries of a certain law understood exactly the 'Wood Law'.
"Zhou Hongjie."
Duan Lingtian remembered that person's name.
At the same time, he also learned from the discussion of a group of people in front of him just now:
Zhou Hongjie, as a person under the age of a thousand in Xuanyou Mansion who has understood the seven secrets of the Wood Element Law, has not been among the top twenty in the standings for almost a year.
"Comprehension of the seven mysteries of the Wood Element Law has not made it into the top twenty of the standings... It seems that the Immortal Lords of the Ten Directions trained by other immortal mansions for the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm are not fuel-efficient lamps."
As the elder brother, it is not difficult for Duan Lingtian to guess that the strength of the Shifang Immortal Lords sent to the Nantian Ancient Realm by other sixth-grade immortal mansions is definitely not weak.
Those sixth-grade immortal mansions must more or less have some immortal kings from the ten directions who are less than a thousand years old and have understood the seven secrets of a certain law.
Otherwise, with Zhou Hongjie's strength, how could he not be among the top 20 in the standings for so long?
As for Qi Tianming saying that Zhou Hongjie was the core disciple of Xuanyou Mansion, Duan Lingtian was not surprised.
In Xuanyou Mansion, the existences below the Immortal King level, except for some powerful Immortal Lords of the Ten Directions, are basically all 'disciples from outside the palace'.
Because, the test set by Xuanyou Mansion to become an 'Inner Mansion Disciple' is very difficult. Only the powerful Immortal Lords of the Ten Directions, or even beings above the Immortal King level, can successfully pass it.
As for the core disciples, they are basically those who have achieved breakthrough status as 'Immortal Kings' under the age of a thousand in Xuanyou Palace. It is not only about their strength but also about their talent.
Although Zhou Hongjie is still the Immortal Lord of the Ten Directions, his attainments in the mysteries of laws have surpassed most of the inner disciples in Xuanyou Mansion, and even the core disciples!
In addition, the reason why Zhou Hongjie's cultivation has not made further breakthroughs is entirely because Xuanyou Mansion asked him to suppress his cultivation.
Otherwise, he would have already broken through and become the Immortal King.
Because of this, Duan Lingtian was not surprised to learn that he was the core disciple of Xuanyou Mansion.
"The light screen condensed by the formation in the middle of the courtyard is the standings of the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm... Of course, the rankings listed above are only the rankings of this month. If you want to check the past rankings, you need to go inside Go check it out.”
Qi Tianming said to Duan Lingtian while leading Duan Lingtian into the mansion behind the vast courtyard.
Seeing Qi Tianming leading the way for Duan Lingtian, a group of Xuanyou Mansion disciples in the courtyard suddenly became curious about Duan Lingtian's identity, "Who is this young man in purple? I don't think I have seen such a person before..."
"It seems that Inspector Qi can lead him personally. He is not a simple person."
"Inspector Qi is by his side, and my consciousness does not dare to approach him rashly, but even if I am not close, I still detect some of his aura... He is not even a hundred years old!"
"Less than a hundred years old?"
"I originally thought he was the foreign aid that Inspector Qi found to help our Xuanyou Mansion compete for the top rankings in the middle of the Nantian Ancient Realm... Now it seems that I was overthinking it."
"Foreign aid? Foreign aid is not so easy to find... Not to mention that there are very few casual cultivators at the level of Immortal Lords of the Ten Directions who are under a thousand years old. Even if there are, they must have been found by other sixth-grade immortal mansions long ago. Basically, it takes turns Not to our Xuanyou Mansion."
…
A group of Xuanyou Palace disciples were full of curiosity about Duan Lingtian's identity as they spoke.
After all, having Qi Tianming, one of the top ten inspectors of Xuanyou Mansion, personally lead the way is not a treatment that ordinary people can have.
In addition, Duan Lingtian was less than a hundred years old, so they had to think about it.
"foreign aid?"
Duan Lingtian, who had just stepped into the mansion with Qi Tianming, heard the voices of a group of Xuanyou Palace disciples communicating behind him, and he couldn't help but be startled for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, he sent a message to Qi Tianming, "Old Qi, can we still find foreign aid?"
"Can."
Qi Tianming nodded, "Finding foreign aid does not violate the rules of the Nantian Ancient Realm... But the premise is that you can find it. Rogue cultivators, those under a thousand years old, who understand more than the six mysteries of a certain law are very, very rare. As for A casual cultivator who understands the seven secrets of a certain law and is less than a thousand years old is even more rare!"
"Generally, only casual cultivators are willing to serve as external aid to the Sixth-Rank Immortal Mansion... Those powerful and outstanding disciples from the ten major clans and five major sects who meet the requirements generally do not bother to help the Sixth-Rank Immortal Mansion go to the Nantian Ancient Realm. Zhongjing competes for the top spot in the standings.”
"Moreover, the ten major clans have express regulations that the children of the clan are not allowed to enter the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm. Once discovered, they will be expelled from the clan! Therefore, it is impossible for people from the ten major clans to enter the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm. There are some possibilities for the people behind the door, but they also need to be driven by very large interests, otherwise they will not be able to take action."
"And the major immortal mansions can basically not meet the requirements of the disciples of the five major sects... Under this situation, it is almost impossible for people from the five major sects to appear in the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm. Therefore, the major immortal mansions can The only foreign aid we are looking for is casual cultivators."
Qi Tianming said a lot, which also made Duan Lingtian realize:
Among the ten major clans and five major sects, there are many beings who have the ability to win the top rankings in the standings of the Southern Ancient Realm...
He was not surprised by this.
After all, the ten major clans and the five major sects are also the top forces in the Southern Territory, and are beyond the reach of ordinary forces.
Even forces at the level of the Blood Skeleton Killer Organization are inferior to them.
When Qi Tianming finished speaking, Duan Lingtian had already followed him into the mansion.
Behind the gate of the mansion is a spacious hall with more than ten counters on both sides of the hall, and deep in the hall is a stone platform with dense and complex lines and patterns carved on it.
"You can receive points jade tokens at the counters on both sides...and if you want, you can see the past monthly rankings of Nantian Ancient Realm through the counter."
"As for the stone platform deep in the main hall, it is the transmission point for the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm. As long as you are less than a thousand years old and have the points jade token of our Xuanyou Mansion, you can enter."
"Everyone can only receive one points jade token every month. In addition, each point jade token can only stay in the Nantian Ancient Realm for ten days. As long as the time is up, the teleportation in the points jade token will The formation will be triggered, sending the person holding the points jade card away from the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm, and his final points will also be fixed on the standings."
After entering the hall, Qi Tianming glanced at the counters on both sides of the hall and the stone platform deep in the hall, and explained to Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian suddenly realized.
"Lord Inspector!"
"Lord Inspector!"
…
In the main hall, people who recognized Qi Tianming saluted Qi Tianming one after another, and the rest also followed suit.
After a while, many people's eyes fell on Duan Lingtian with curiosity.
Like the Xuanyou Mansion disciples in the courtyard outside, they were full of curiosity about Duan Lingtian's identity.
What kind of identity could allow Qi Tianming, one of the top ten inspectors of Xuanyou Mansion, to lead the way here in person?
"Is it a foreign aid?"
Many people speculate this.
However, when some of them discovered that Duan Lingtian was just a young man who was less than a hundred years old, they gave up the idea and only thought that Duan Lingtian was a young master or a young master with some big background.
"Get him a points jade card."
Qi Tianming took Duan Lingtian to one of the counters and said to the middle-aged man behind the counter.
The middle-aged man, an ordinary elder of Xuanyou Mansion, couldn't help but be startled when he heard Qi Tianming's words.
Apply for a points jade card?
At the same time, under Qi Tianming's instruction, Duan Lingtian took out his identity token as a disciple of Xuanyou Mansion and placed it on the counter in front of the middle-aged man.
"This is my identity token. I want to apply for the points jade token and enter the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm."
As Duan Lingtian took out the identity token, even though it was only the identity token of an outside disciple of Xuanyou Mansion, it still caused a group of people in the hall to whisper:
"You can actually get the identity token of a disciple of our Xuanyou Mansion... This young man in purple seems to have an unusual identity."
"You are less than a hundred years old, and you must be going sightseeing when you enter the middle of Nantian Ancient Realm! Inspector Qi personally led the way, and he also had the identity token of our Xuanyou Mansion in his hand... You know, the identity token of our Xuanyou Mansion, Even the identity token of a foreign disciple is not that easy to obtain."
"That's right! Even Inspector Qi and even the three deputy palace masters can't help people get identity tokens without following the formal procedures of our Xuanyou Mansion... Unless it's the palace master, or Jiu The Palace Master of the Great Holy Palace intervened."
"In other words... this young man in purple has a direct relationship with the Palace Lord or the nine Palace Lords?"
"It's not simple! This young man in purple is definitely not simple!"
…
Although the whispers of a group of people were not loud, they were still heard by Duan Lingtian and Qi Tianming.
However, Qi Tianming didn't care about this.
Duan Lingtian, on the other hand, felt that these people thought too much.
Of course, he also knew that the reason why these people said this was entirely because of his age...
For a person who is less than a hundred years old, what is the purpose of entering the middle realm of Nantian Ancient Realm if not for sightseeing?
"You engrave your name on it first. After I confirm that it matches the name on your identity jade plate, you can then identify its owner with your blood."
The elder of Xuanyou Mansion behind the counter reached out and handed Duan Lingtian a points jade token.
As soon as he got the jade token, Duan Lingtian discovered that it was unusual.
Even if you don't integrate your own immortal power into it, you can still clearly detect the subtle power fluctuations contained in it just by holding the jade tablet in your hand...
