Since there was not much movement on Ye Hong's side, and the time for the battle was short, not many people came to watch after hearing the movement, and some of them ended the battle without even seeing it.
"I'm late? Why is it over?"
"If you don't take an active part in watching the excitement, you won't even be able to pick up hot shit, so let's leave!"
"Are you talking human language?"
"You didn't see the battle just now, tsk tsk tsk~ The fierce battle between Li Hua in the middle stage of Golden Core on the third level of Soul Tribulation Realm, and Li Hua actually lost in the end."
"You are too ridiculous! Can a person in the Soul Tribulation Realm reach the Golden Core Stage?"
"Anyway, I didn't see it, so I don't believe it! But in the end Liu Yiyi was really sexy, so seductive!"
"You LSP! The focus is so damn special. Is that the point?"
"But the person who robbed the cave seems to be someone's attendant. The weapons they used were all earth-level spiritual weapons. I wonder which force they belong to?"
The onlookers who dispersed were talking in twos and threes. Liu Yiyi and Li Hua, who returned to the cave, had different thoughts. Wang Ming disappeared around the cave and did not know where he went.
Inside the cave, Ye Hong looked at the surroundings. The space inside the cave was not very large, and the furnishings were simple. There was a small table with a few stone benches, and a stone bed in the corner.
"This is too simple! It's just a cave dwelling, that's all!" Ye Hong complained.
Yan Song explained: "Brother Ye Hong, the caves on the mountain are all like this. Although they are a little crude, practicing here is very beneficial to improving your cultivation."
Ye Hong had to accept the fact that it was a bit shabby, but at least he had a place to sleep instead of sleeping in the open air.
"Living here, how would I know if someone came to challenge the cave?"
"If someone comes to challenge the challenge, the spar at the cave door will flash as a reminder, and the spirit gathering array in the cave will stop operating. At this time, if you are practicing, you can clearly detect the changes in the surrounding elemental power. Then you will know that there is someone outside the cave coming to challenge you."
Yan Song explained some of Ye Hong's questions one by one, not only the use of the spirit gathering array in the cave, but also the basic information of the three people Ye Hong challenged just now, their affiliations, etc.
Wang Ming, who was seriously injured by Ye Hong's sword, is the grandson of the third elder of the Kuang Shamen in the Central Region, and is in the early stage of the Golden Elixir; Li Hua is a casual cultivator, in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, and is now under the mentor Fan Wei of the Golden Dragon Academy;
That woman, Liu Yiyi, was from Butterfly Flower Valley. She was in the early stages of cultivating the golden elixir. She usually made few moves, and Yan Song didn't know much about her.
Yan Song himself can be considered a casual cultivator. Yan Song and his sister were originally members of the Jiyi Sect. However, due to the decline of the Jiyi Sect, his father, the master of the Jiyi Sect, died unexpectedly while exploring the ruins.
From then on, only Yan Song and his sister were left in the Jiyi Sect. After that, in order to make a living, they wanted to fulfill their father's last wish and strengthen the Jiyi Sect, so they embarked on the road of experience.
After passing the assessment of Golden Dragon Academy, he entered the academy to practice. He thought that after improving his strength, he would go back to revive the sect and develop it. Unexpectedly, his sister died while exploring the ruins of the secret realm some time ago. Now only Yan Song, the only seedling of the Jiyi Sect, is left. .
"I didn't expect you to be the young master of Jiyi Sect!"
"Brother Ye Hong, please stop teasing me. Now the Jiyi Sect has ceased to exist in name only. With my talent, it is impossible for me to revitalize the sect alone."
"Have confidence in yourself. I believe you can do it. Work hard to improve yourself. Even if you can't do it now, your next generation may not be able to do it. If the next generation can't do it, there will be the next generation. There will be endless generations of descendants. also.
As long as there is life and incense, there will always be people who will carry forward the Jiyi Sect again, and the Jiyi Sect will appear again on the continent. "
"Uh...Brother Ye Hong, you are thinking too far. I haven't even thought about it so much."
"Since you are the young master of the Jiyi Sect, I think your sect should have some kind of inheritance! Bring it to me to see if it's a treasure that can suppress the sect."
"Since the decline of the Jiyi Sect, there is only one Jiyi Sword left, but I don't know where my father kept the sword. My sister and I have not been able to find the sword since my father died.
The only remaining Jiyi Sword Technique was because I was not talented enough to understand it. Only my sister understood it a little bit, so the technique has been kept by my sister. This time my sister died, I think the technique was also left in the ruins of the secret realm. . "
Ye Hong listened to Yan Song's story and felt deep sympathy for Yan Song. I wanted to see the treasure of Jiyi Sect from Yan Song, open my eyes and increase the accumulation of knowledge, but now there is nothing. Yan Song is now in a state of despair.
From Yan Song's description, this Jiyi Sword Technique is still a very profound skill, but it's a pity that it can no longer be seen.
"Then what are your plans for the future?"
"I plan to search for the secret ruins after my cultivation reaches the Golden Core stage, bring my sister's remains back to the sect ruins for burial, and also recover the Ultimate Sword Technique. After all, that is the only thing my father left to us. I don't want it to be lost like this.
As for whether I want to revive Jiyi Sect in the future, I haven’t thought about it that much yet. I just want to do the things in front of me well.
Now that you know my situation, does Brother Ye Hong still recognize me as a friend? From the battle just now with Brother Ye Hong, it can be seen that you are a very powerful person. I am not on the same level as you at all, and I am not worthy of being your friend at all. "
Maybe it was because of the pain of losing a loved one, and now I was alone, feeling lonely and desolate. No one had been able to listen to Yan Song's story before. With Ye Hong, a person willing to listen to his story, Yan Song could tell a lot at once.
"Of course! Friends don't distinguish between high and low. Even if you are a poor beggar on the street in the future, I, Ye Hong, will still recognize you as my friend."
Ye Hong felt deep sympathy after listening to Yan Song's story. Yan Song was an easy person to get along with and had a good character. He also liked to make friends. Although Yan Song was just a poor young master now, he might be able to do so in the future.
You still have to seize this opportunity to get acquainted, since it won't do you any harm anyway.
Later, Ye Hong asked Yan Song why he didn't find a tutor in the academy to support him. Yan Song's answer was that he still couldn't let go of the Jiyi Sect.
Because once you choose an academy tutor to be your supporter and become a disciple, you can no longer regain the Jiyi Sect, have your own power outside, or join other forces on the mainland.
You can only devote your life to Golden Dragon College, teach at Golden Dragon College or be responsible for the affairs of Golden Dragon College.
The main reason is that the tutors at Golden Dragon Academy do not easily accept disciples, and the qualification requirements are extremely high. With Yan Song's own qualifications and talents, no academy tutor would be willing to accept him as a disciple.
Through Yan Song's explanation, Ye Hong learned that Jinlong Academy recruits students without any restrictions on power, but after the students are recruited, they will not be given a single teaching. Instead, the instructors of the academy will give group lectures every now and then to impart their cultivation experience.
The instructor of the academy will only provide individual guidance to his disciples. If you want the instructor to accept him as a disciple, you must be extremely talented and must be a casual cultivator. The instructors of Golden Dragon Academy do not accept people from sects in the mainland.
Therefore, most of the people in the academy who have sect forces behind them come to Golden Dragon Academy to gain experience and seek opportunities and make friends.
Or to find outstanding potential cultivators for your sect and recruit some more qualified casual cultivators to strengthen your sect.
Later, Ye Hong also learned from Yan Song that the dense forest before he entered the college was the college's protective forest, and the monsters in it were indeed kept in captivity by the college as Ye Hong had originally guessed.
In order to prevent students with low cultivation levels from sneaking out of the academy and to test the new students, the academy has raised a large number of monsters below the fourth level in the dense forest.
Jinlong Academy stipulates that any student of the academy who has not reached the Golden Core stage is not allowed to leave the academy and must concentrate on cultivating in the academy.
The monsters in this dense forest only have cultivation levels below the fourth level. As long as the students' cultivation level reaches the golden elixir stage, they are enough to deal with them. It is also a test given by the academy to the students.
This is also the reason why Yan Song said that he had to wait until the golden elixir stage before going out to find his sister's bones. He couldn't leave the academy until he reached the golden elixir stage.
Although Yan Song wanted to leave quickly and go to the secret ruins, given his current state, he had to seize the time to practice. Improving his cultivation was the most urgent thing.
After Ye Hong understood this, what he wanted to know most now was where the ninth-level demon core was, which was also the purpose of his trip to the academy.
"Do you know that there is a ninth-level wood attribute demon core in the academy? Do you know where it is?"
"I don't know if there are ninth-level demon cores, but demon cores are a type of spiritual material. The spiritual materials are all in the Gongren Hall of the academy. I think if there are, they should be there too."
"Gongren Hall? What is that place?"
Yan Song explained: "Gongren Hall is the place where tasks are distributed in the academy. When your cultivation level reaches the golden elixir stage, you can go there to receive tasks. I heard from my sister that as long as you complete the tasks, you can redeem spiritual materials, elixirs, and more there. Spar.”
"Haven't you been there?"
"I haven't reached the Golden Core stage yet. I can't accept missions when I go to Gongren Hall, and I can't leave the academy, so I haven't been there either. But I know where it is. If you want to go, I'll take you there tomorrow."
"Okay! Then you can take me around the academy tomorrow."
After the two chatted for a while, they saw that it was getting late, so Ye Hong prepared to rest in the cave.
Although the cave can accommodate two people, because he had just met Yan Song and was not familiar with Yan Song, he did not leave Yan Song to practice in the cave.
Ye Hong had no choice but to sleep on the simple hard stone bed for one night, planning to think of other options tomorrow to see if he could find a better place to live.
In addition to the demon core, Ye Hong also thought that since Jin Xuan gave him the jade token, Jin Xuan might be in the academy. If he could meet Jin Xuan, he would have to have a good talk with him.
In fact, Ye Hong has always been curious about Jin Xuan's identity. He only knows that Jin Xuan is the light envoy of the Light God Religion and does not know any other information. If Zhao Yan hadn't reminded him that Jin Xuan is a student of Jinlong College, Ye Hong would not have known about it. this matter.
They met Jin Xuan only a few times in total. Every time they met, Jin Xuan asked questions. When he asked questions, Jin Xuan never answered directly, and each time he left in a hurry, saying Just go.
Jin Xuan has a weird temper and is moody. Ye Hong usually doesn't dare to ask more questions and knows very little about Jin Xuan.
As for the matter of merging demon cores, Ye Hong has never dared to start. He was thinking about gathering all the demon cores, returning to Fenglei Continent, asking Liang Shixuan to help him, and then merging four ninth-level demon cores together.
If he could get it all together before his heart exploded and he lost control, Ye Hong would be more inclined to go back to Liang Shixuan to help him fuse it, so the risk would be much smaller.
