Before, without the stimulation of heavy rewards, only one-third of the people could survive the battle for the secret realm.
But after the heavy reward, not even a quarter of them were able to get out of the secret realm.
And among the living disciples, there are even fewer who can bring out the elixir.
Apart from serious injuries, most people gained nothing at all, let alone exchanged for those rewards.
Taiqing Sect's low-level disciple competition this time is different from the past. In the past, it was just a competition between new disciples, but this time it was a competition between new and old disciples.
The disciples in the sect had different opinions as to why such a competition was held.
As for Dabi's true intentions, I'm afraid only the top brass know about it.
When Shen Luo learned that the competition was about to begin, he was surprised. He did not expect that the competition would be so fast.
After staying in the Taiqing Sect for so long, he knew something about the situation in the sect, that is, the competition usually only starts after three years of entry for new disciples.
But now that the new disciples have only been here for more than a year, they are competing in such a hurry, and the old and new disciples are competing together. I really don’t know what the sect is thinking.
In addition, the requirements for this competition are very strict.
Only disciples who have reached the ninth or tenth level of Qi Refining are eligible to sign up.
Originally, Shen Luo had no intention of participating in this competition.
On the one hand, his cultivation level has not yet reached the required level, and on the other hand, he wants to be more comfortable and want to rely on taking care of the medicine garden to accumulate spiritual stones to buy Foundation Establishment Pills.
After all, when he was refining the Zhu Yan Dan, those few dozen materials cost him a lot of spiritual stones, and now he didn't have enough spiritual stones to buy the Foundation Establishment Pill.
He also thought about using a gourd to extract a random elixir and then sell it.
But this idea was incomplete and dangerous, and he was quickly rejected.
Just when he was indulging in taking care of the medicine garden, Master Yu told him that there were fifty more places in the competition this time.
As long as you are within one hundred and fifty, you can get a foundation-building pill and an intermediate spiritual stone.
Shen Luo's eyes lit up when he heard the news. The Foundation Establishment Pill was what he needed most, and he was a little excited about this competition.
Although the gourd can refine the elixir, he cannot guarantee that one top-quality foundation-building pill will allow him to build the foundation, so he needs more foundation-building pills.
There is still one month left before the competition, and he wants to upgrade his cultivation to the ninth level of Qi Refining within this month, but it is not practical to practice slowly by himself.
If he could be given a few months, he could steadily break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining by relying on the gourd spirit liquid.
It's a pity that he doesn't have that much time, only one month is left for him, so he plans to use the power of the elixir to attack.
With the power of the spiritual liquid and elixir in the gourd, he was sure that he could break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining in a short time.
Thinking of this, he approached Master Yu and made a request to practice in seclusion for a month.
When Uncle Yu heard this, he immediately looked at him with his beard blown, very dissatisfied.
He thought Shen Luo was really thinking about it. He was like this when he was refining elixirs before, and now he actually wanted to run to participate in the competition on a whim.
He immediately refuted him and told him to give up the idea and stay here to do good work.
He felt that it was impossible for Shen Luo to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining within a month, and what would happen even if he broke through.
With so many people participating in the competition, he may not be able to enter the top 150.
In short, he just didn't like Shen Luo very much, so he wanted to make him give up the idea of participating in the competition, and wanted him to stay here and take good care of the medicine garden.
Later, after Shen Luo argued hard, Master Yu reluctantly agreed to let him practice in seclusion for a month.
Before he left, Master Yu gave him a bottle of Huanglong Pill and said clearly: "Boy, seeing that you have been working diligently to help me take care of the medicine garden, Uncle Master, I will give you a bottle of pill out of mercy." Yao, I hope you can break through to the ninth level of Qi refining."
"But I'll say the ugly things first. If you don't have a breakthrough, just stay here and take care of the medicine garden for me."
After Master Yu finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left without looking back.
Shen Luo was left stunned on the spot, at a loss. Until Master Yu could no longer be seen, he lowered his head and looked at the bottle of elixir in his hand.
Huanglong Pill is a pill that can increase the mana of monks in the Qi Refining Stage. Its potency is far greater than the Qi Gathering Powder he has taken before.
Just this bottle of Huanglong Pill can sell a lot of spiritual stones in the market.
Now that it was given to him, he didn't expect that this Master Yu was actually a man with a sharp mouth and a heartless heart!
After Shen Luo put the elixir into his storage bag, he left the medicine garden and returned to Taixuan Mountain, arriving at the cave he had not lived in for a long time.
At first he wanted to stay in the medicine garden and practice in the thatched hut where he lived.
But considering that there is also a Master Yu who is in the foundation building stage living here.
He was very cautious and thought it would be better to avoid this place. It would be terrible if someone discovered the secret that gourds can extract impurities in elixirs.
Although Master Yu would not usually be like this, he was afraid of anything unexpected, so he had to be on guard against others.
Arriving at Shenluo, the cave he had not seen for a long time, he closed the door to the room as soon as he walked in.
Then he opened the restriction inside, and then he took out the gourd and elixir with satisfaction and began to refine it.
After the elixir was upgraded to the best elixir by the gourd's mysterious effect, he began to swallow the elixir and practice.
A few miles away from Taixuan Mountain, there is a small villa. This villa was established by a disciple of the Taiqing Sect a long time ago.
This place is usually closed, and is usually only opened when the sect is about to hold a competition.
Now there are only seven days left before the competition, and the small mountain villa is supposed to be closed.
Today is extremely lively, with a large number of disciples suddenly appearing here.
The reason why they are here is because there is a swap meet being held here.
The so-called swap meeting is to trade some things that you don't need with others.
It may be useless to you, but it is a good thing to others.
Whenever a swap meeting starts, a large number of disciples will gather here to trade for treasures.
The treasure exchange building is the largest attic in the manor. This is where the disciples of the Taiqing Sect conduct treasure exchange transactions.
At this time, the hall of the attic was already overcrowded, and there were people everywhere. They gathered here, waiting for the exchange meeting to begin.
In a very inconspicuous place among the crowd, there was a young man looking curiously at the layout of the hall.
This person was Shen Luo who had been practicing in seclusion for a period of time. During this period of time, he was in seclusion.
Relying on the Huanglong Pill and the spiritual liquid in the gourd, he finally raised his cultivation level to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
He originally wanted to go to Master Feng before going out and get the Foundation Establishment Pill first, but as soon as he left the house, he heard someone say that the exchange meeting was about to start.
