By Jishui Lake.
Several outer disciples are paving the way.
Yu Ye, Mu Sha, and Shang Xin were knocking stones, while Hong Qiaoer was helping. Angelica ordered Zhan Kun to move the stone back and forth, and scolded him from time to time. Ever since Zhan Kun asked for the spirit stone, he has been alienated by Angelica and others. He threatened to fake the test, which obviously offended the public. He didn't realize it, but he still worked hard without complaint.
Three months have passed since the mid-year competition.
The days are still peaceful.
After practicing every day in the wild, he would spend some time with Yu Xing, Li Xuan, and Dang Gui, or go for a walk by the lake, or chat in front of the cave gate. As for the expert I saw that day, he might be an elder, but because he was flying too fast, he couldn't see clearly the flying sword at his feet. As we all know, no one in Qizhou has cultivated to the state of transforming into gods and refining emptiness for hundreds of years, so how could such an expert appear in the Yunchuan Immortal Sect. After the four people were surprised, they gradually forgot about it.
Ming Ye's injury had recovered, and Mu Hu took good care of him, exempting him from the kitchen chores so that he could practice in seclusion. It is said that he has reached the seventh level of Qi refining, and he has said that he will not forget the defeat in the competition and the humiliation of the broken sword.
Although Chen Qi no longer openly provokes people, he is still sneaky. Once he encounters someone occasionally, he stays away with a mysterious smile. And he has good popularity in Jishui Peak, and he has made friends with a group of highly skilled disciples such as Gu Muzi and Yu Li.
Angelica dahurica seems to have disappeared. After the mid-year competition, she was nowhere to be seen.
"Oops, take a break!"
As soon as Danggui called for everyone to rest, he glared and said, "Zhan Kun, we are waiting for stones to pave the road. How dare you be lazy!"
Zhan Kun did not dare to argue and silently picked up a large stone weighing hundreds of kilograms.
Angelica Yi snorted secretly, with a look of disgust on her face. She then opened her clothes and fanned the wind with her palms, her two little eyes twinkling.
Yu Ye, Mu Sha, Shang Xin and Hong Qiaoer sat down to rest.
Yu Ye sat on a stone and said mysteriously: "I asked about it, Shenqitang is recruiting inner disciples. Are you interested?"
"hehe!"
Mu Sha smiled and said: "The inner disciples are all top-notch masters, we don't dare to think anything wrong!"
Shang Xin asked in confusion: "Didn't Uncle Chang say that he would choose his disciples from the winners of the mid-year competition?"
Hong Qiaoer asked: "Yes, why did you change the rules now?"
"ha!"
Yu Yeyi puffed up his chest and said, "According to what I heard, Uncle Hong Lie from Shenqi Hall was very dissatisfied with the last mid-year competition and wanted to advance the year-end Heavenly Judgment by two months. Select the best among the disciples of the inner sect. This matter has been approved by the sect leader, so there should be nothing wrong. And why the Heavenly Judgment One? It means that within the Kongtong realm, life and death are determined by heaven, and chance is determined by heaven. Can you walk out of Kongtong alive? The disciples of the realm all rely on God's will, so they are called Heavenly Jueers. Whether to participate in the Yunchuan Heavenly Jue is entirely based on volition..."
Musa, Shang Xin and Hong Qiaoer looked at each other in confusion.
The so-called Heavenly Determiner sounds a bit scary.
"Yunchuan Tianjue is two months ahead of schedule, wouldn't it be next month? The Kongtong realm is extremely dangerous, please think twice before proceeding!"
"Don't think twice, I don't dare to go..."
"I won't go either..."
Yu Ye lowered his head and looked at the hammer in his hand.
The hammer is different from the hammers in Yujiacun. It is made of a single piece of black iron. It is strong and heavy. With one hammer blow, it can easily smash a hundred kilograms of stone.
It is easy to smash rocks, but the upcoming Yunchuan Tianjue does not seem to be easy.
Whether to go or not is entirely up to one's own free will; whether to live or not is entirely up to God's decision. This is enough to show the danger within Kongtong.
"Yu Ye, what do you think?"
Dang Guiyi, Mu Sha, Shang Xin, and Hong Qiao'er all made up their minds to give up their trip to Kongtong Realm, but they wanted to know Yu Ye's decision.
"I..."
While Yu Ye was still hesitating, he heard someone calling him again.
"Yu Ye——"
On the hillside by the lake, a figure appeared, with a body like a green willow and eyes like autumn water.
"oh?"
It’s Bai Zhi. I haven’t seen her for a long time. She said softly——
"Let's talk."
She, Hong Qiaoer and others nodded in greeting and walked along the lake embankment.
Yu Ye slowly stood up.
"Hey!"
Angelica waved her hand and urged: "Senior Sister Bai invites you to talk, how dare you linger!"
Mu Sha, Shang Xin, and Hong Qiaoer showed kind smiles.
"boom--"
Zhan Kun just put down a stone, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and when he turned to leave, he cast a deep glance at Bai Zhi's back.
Yu Ye has been to the woods on the north side of Jishui Lake many times.
At this time, the forest was very quiet. No one else was seen breathing and breathing, only a figure standing on the edge of the cliff. It can be seen from the power radiating from her body that she has reached the perfect state of the sixth level of Qi refining.
"What do you want from me?"
When Yu Ye walked to the edge of the cliff, a breeze blew against his face. He crossed his arms and enjoyed the pleasure of the wind.
"Have you heard of Yunchuan Tianjue?"
"I don't know if it's true or not."
"It should be true."
"How to determine?"
"Mu Hu has received Ming Ye's benefits. If there is any trouble in the Immortal Sect, they will tell the truth. This matter has been spread throughout Jishui Peak, what are your plans?"
"It is said that Kongtong is dangerous and unpredictable, so it's okay not to go there."
"The reason why Yunchuan Tianjue is advanced is just to recruit disciples for Shenqi Hall. Wouldn't it be a pity if you give up this trip!"
"My cultivation level is low, I should be aware of myself."
"If that's the case, why did you go to all the trouble to worship at the Yunchuan Immortal Sect?"
"..."
The two stood on the edge of the cliff, more than ten feet apart, talking to each other through sound transmission, but no one outside could hear them.
"You have grown taller..."
When Yu Ye was silent, Bai Zhi's voice suddenly became gentle. He couldn't help but turn around, only to see the other party looking at him intently and saying softly——
"...You have grown up and are an adult. You are no longer ignorant and clumsy in your words, but you are calm, sophisticated, wise and brave. That day you injured Ming Ye, I was worried about you, who missed you In just a few words, the crisis has been resolved. Now Yu Ye’s name is known to everyone in Jishui Peak!"
Yu Ye couldn't help lowering his head and interrupted: "What do you want to say?"
"Go to Kongtong Realm!"
"No one is stopping you!"
"You stay with me!"
Bai Zhi suddenly became a little willful.
"Why?"
"Why do you accompany Yuxing and Li Yuan every day? Yuxing falls in love with you, and you also fall in love with her?"
"This is absolutely not the case. You are accompanied by Chenqi, Gumuzi, Yuju, and Mingye..."
"You are angry about this, so..."
"No!"
Yu Ye raised his eyes, feeling a little annoyed, flicked his sleeves, and turned to leave.
Bai Zhi smiled brightly and said leisurely: "I advise you not to be greedy for comfort and obsessed with the love of your children. Only by entering the inner door can you make a difference!"
Yu Ye did not look back.
Bai Zhi turned to look into the distance, with a pair of beautiful eyes showing a trace of confusion. Her chest rose and fell and she sighed softly, saying to herself: "Oh, is it a chance or a disaster..."
…
Inside the cave.
Yu Ye opened his eyes from sitting quietly.
More than a month has passed, and his cultivation of the fourth level of Qi refining has gradually become more complete. Not only that, after cultivating to the fourth level of Qi refining, perhaps due to the rich spiritual energy, the progress of cultivation has been significantly accelerated.
The improvement of cultivation is a pleasure.
And in two days it will be the day of Yunchuan Tianjue, so how should we choose?
The last time I talked with Bai Zhi, she actually tested her daughter's feelings. They didn't agree with each other, so they had to part ways. But what she said coincided with Yu Ye. Only by becoming an inner disciple can you make a difference. And he is not coveting ease, he has been waiting for the opportunity.
"Bang, bang——"
Someone knocked on the prohibition of the cave door, and then came the shout of Angelica Yi——
"Senior Brother Mu ordered us to go to the kitchen and wait for instructions!"
Yu Ye removed the restrictions and walked out of the cave.
It was almost dusk, and figures emerged from the caves halfway up the mountain. They were in small groups, talking and laughing, and running down the mountain.
Angelica stood waiting not far away, with two women beside him. Among them, Yu Xing was smiling, raising her toes and waving.
"Who is lecturing?"
"Uncle Chang Ming!"
"Why?"
"Maybe it's related to Yunchuan Tianjue!"
Perhaps it was dinner time, and groups of disciples gathered in the open space in front of the kitchen door.
Yu Ye only eats one lunch every day. As his cultivation level increases, his appetite becomes smaller and smaller. There were only dozens of low-level disciples accompanying the diners, but today at dinner time more than 300 people gathered, which showed that all the outer disciples had shown up.
"quiet!"
Mu Hu scolded.
When everything was quiet, he heard Chang Ming say: "Three days from now, it will be the day of the Yunchuan Heavenly Judgment. I hope that the disciples of Baichuan Hall will actively participate and can be selected into the inner sect. It is a rare opportunity! But the good or bad luck here is unpredictable, and life and death are unpredictable. , you all make your own decisions, those who are interested can register here, Mu Hu——"
Mu Hu raised a volume and a pen and gestured: "Who is willing to go to Kongtong Realm and leave a name?"
Everyone was talking a lot, some were fearful, some were hesitant, some were excited, and some were indifferent. Within a short time, dozens of disciples had left their names in the volume.
Yu Ye stood behind the crowd, waited for a moment, moved his steps, but was pulled by his sleeve.
It was Yu Xing who, although she didn't make a sound, was biting her lip, her eyes were watery, her delicate cheeks were filled with anxiety, and she was shaking her head at him.
Yu Ye smiled and gently took off his sleeves.
Dang Guiyi, Musa, Shang Xin, Hong Qiaoer, and Li Yun also waved their hands quietly to him, their worries unspoken.
Yu Ye walked past the crowd and walked forward.
He walked up to Mu Hu and wrote the word "Yu Ye" on the animal skin volume. As soon as he left his name, the bamboo pen was snatched away by someone.
Mingye!
Behind Ming Ye, there were Chen Qi, Bai Zhi, Gu Muzi, Yu Li and others standing.
It's as if you haven't seen it in the wild.
Suddenly I heard Chang Ming say: "Yu Ye, Hong Lie once asked me about you. Now go to Kongtong Territory so that you can take care of yourself!"
What does it mean to take care of oneself? What does the deacon of Baichuan Hall mean by this?
Yu Ye hurriedly bowed and then returned silently.
But they saw Angelica and the others looking lost and helpless. Yuxing's hands were tangled, with a look of resentment on her face.
On the other hand, Zhan Kun greeted him, stretched out his hand and praised: "Senior Brother Yu has extraordinary courage and powerful methods. He is truly the leader of our generation. I will definitely come back with a rewarding experience and become a blockbuster again!"
"Oh, thank you for your good advice!"
Yu Ye said perfunctoryly, but couldn't help but said curiously: "I thought Senior Brother Zhan was dumber than me, but he was so good at flattery and kept it hidden!"
"hehe!"
Zhan Kun smiled awkwardly, turned around and hid in the crowd...
