Zou Gou picked up Ling Yun's copybook and left.
"Thank you very much, shopkeeper!"
Ling Yun raised his hand to Wu De.
"Hi!"
Wu De waved his hand, "Even if the shopkeeper doesn't take action, I think the little brother can solve it by himself."
"However, in order to prevent accidents, my little brother can stay temporarily in this small courtyard of the shopkeeper,"
"How about following me to the ancient secret realm immediately after the battle on the Mountains and Rivers List?"
Ling Yun thought for a moment and realized that Zizhulin could not return for the time being, and he indeed had no other place to go, so he nodded in agreement.
Wu De turned his palm, and a red crystal stone the size of a thumb appeared in his palm.
As soon as the red fire crystal came out, Ling Yun suddenly felt a wave of hot air coming towards his face.
"This is also an object dug out from the ancient secret realm. It is called the essence of red flame and contains the ultimate power of fire."
"But because of the age, the energy has lost a lot, and a lot of impurities have penetrated in."
"How much you can absorb depends entirely on your own luck."
Wu De waved his hand, and the red flame essence flew towards Ling Yun.
"Thank you, shopkeeper!"
Ling Yun caught the red flame essence, feeling like he was holding a piece of red-hot iron silver, and he quickly wrapped it with his true energy.
"No need to thank me, your cultivation level is too low. Take advantage of these few days to try to improve your cultivation level."
"Otherwise, if you enter the ancient secret realm, you will have to rely on me to protect you, and I will be tired."
With that said, Wu De pointed to the backyard and said, "There are many rooms in the backyard. You can clean them up yourself."
"Shopkeeper, can you let Ning Xiaodong stay here too?"
Chu Tianyang may not cause trouble for him for the time being, but Ning Xiaodong may not.
Wu De said without looking back, "If he wants to stay here, no one will stop him, but he doesn't care about the food."
Ling Yun: "..."
"Brother Yun, you don't have to worry about me. You can rest assured and refine the red flame essence here."
"I have refined this pulse-opening pill, and I am going to see my master."
"Let's see you again on the battle for the Mountain and River List."
Ning Xiaodong clasped his fists and left.
Ling Yun came to the backyard, cleaned up briefly, then took out the red flame essence and started refining it.
The domineering power of fire entered his body, and Ling Yun felt as if his body was on fire.
That kind of pain made Ling Yun couldn't help but groan.
But as the Chaos Kaitianlu circulates, the power of these impurities-laden flames is transformed into true energy bit by bit.
And it turned out to be true energy with the attribute of fire.
It was much more powerful than the previous zhenqi in his body.
The true energy of these flames opened up three meridians for him at once.
The number of meridians opened in the body reached twenty-one!
He has reached the second level of Qi Condensation Realm!
"Good stuff!"
Ling Yun then continued to refine the essence of red flame.
On the other side, Wuji Peak.
After Ye Mengyan refined the Nine Apertures Golden Pill, she rushed over immediately without waiting for Cao Su.
Although Zhao Wuji was still wearing a golden robe, his pale face made him lose his former majesty.
"Greetings to Master, Meng Yan has refined the Nine Aperture Golden Pill."
Ye Mengyan bowed to the ground.
"It took a day, not bad."
Zhao Wuji nodded, then waved,
"Mengyan, come here and let me see your progress."
Ye Mengyan approached and released his cultivation aura.
"First level of Tongmai Realm?"
Zhao Wuji frowned;
A nine-aperture golden elixir, a treasure elixir that can transform one's body and soul, only allowed Ye Mengyan to be promoted from the seventh level of the Qi Condensation Realm to the first level of the Tongmai Realm?
Only ten meridians have been opened!
Is Ye Mengyan's martial arts too weak or too strong?
The martial body is too weak and the medicine absorbed is limited, so the improvement is not big.
The martial body is too strong, even if all the power of the medicine is absorbed, the improvement is limited.
Zhao Wuji's eyes moved down to Ye Mengyan's dantian, and he was more inclined to the second scenario.
So Zhao Wuji continued, "Mengyan, after Tianqi woke up in the ancestral land, he already knew all your performance in the entrance examination."
"Senior Brother Chu must...must be very disappointed."
Ye Mengyan squeezed her ten fingers together tightly in her sleeves, her hatred for Ling Yun unforgettable.
"I can't say I'm disappointed."
"I can't guess Tianqi's structure. He is not the kind of person who cares about the gains and losses of a time and a place."
"For example, this time he fought against the leader of the Demon Cult. Although he was injured, he went a step further and successfully condensed the Xuan Dan, becoming a martial arts master."
"For ordinary people, achieving martial arts master status is the pinnacle of life, but for Tian Qi, this is just the starting point."
"He is about to go to the ancient secret realm to condense the true body of the Dharma. Once it is completed..."
"I'm afraid he will become the only genius qualified to hit the Tianxuan Ranking in the Tianxuanwu Academy for a hundred years."
In Ye Mengyan's mind, the invincible image of Chu Tianqi using his human sword to fight against the leader of the Demon Cult emerged involuntarily.
She couldn't help but feel excited, "Senior Brother Chu is really a dragon among men. He is worthy of being the top genius of Tianxuanwu Academy. One day, I will be like Senior Brother Chu and be on the Heavenly Ranking."
On the Tianlist, only geniuses who have the potential to achieve the Tianhe realm are eligible to impact.
As for Tianxuanwuyuan, no one has been qualified to hit the Tianban for a hundred years.
But Chu Tianqi is about to break this fate and regain the glory of Tianxuanwu Academy.
Zhao Wuji said, "What Tian Qi means this time is that you not only have to retest your spiritual roots, but you also have to participate in the mountain and river ranking competition and win the first place!"
"Master, but I only have the first level of Tongmai Realm. Can I...can I do it?"
Ye Mengyan obviously lacked confidence.
"I heard from Elder Cao that the senior brothers and sisters who can compete for the top ten in the Mountain and River Ranking are at least high-grade Xuan-level talents,"
"And all of them have deliberately suppressed their cultivation to the tenth level of Tongmai Realm for more than half a year,"
"It's just to soar into the top of the mountain and river rankings, win big prizes, and then go straight to the inner courtyard."
Zhao Wuji nodded, that was indeed the case.
Those who dare to compete for the top ten on the mountain and river list are all talented and powerful people.
The reason why Tianxuanwuyuan set up this mountain and river ranking list and provide heavy rewards is to hone these talents.
"Meng Yan, in the early stages of martial arts, cultivation does not greatly increase combat power."
As he spoke, Zhao Wuji raised his palm, and a black scroll appeared,
"This is the ancient body-protecting secret technique that Tianqi brought back from the ancient secret realm - black iron rock armor technique. He asked me to pass it on to you."
"With this technique, Mengyan, you will be basically invincible in the battle between mountains and rivers."
"The next step is to learn offensive combat skills from my master. After this, don't you still have the confidence to compete for the top spot in the mountain and river rankings?"
Hearing this, Ye Mengyan was extremely surprised, "Thank you, Senior Brother Chu, thank you Master."
"Master, please rest assured, Mengyan will definitely not let you down again this time."
Ye Mengyan holds her head high and is confident. She has already imagined in her mind that she will win the first place in the mountain and river rankings under the spotlight of everyone, and then she will become famous throughout the Blue Wind County by detecting the heaven-level spiritual root.
Time is like running water.
Today is the biggest event in the outer courtyard, the start of the Mountain and River Ranking.
Early in the morning, the martial arts arena was already filled with flags and crowds of people.
Not only were many elders from the inner courtyard present in person, but they also wanted to select a few disciples.
All the famous people in Cangfeng County were also invited to watch.
This is the moment when Tianxuanwuyuan demonstrates its heritage and reputation.
clang!
Along with a heavy and distant bell, the noisy martial arts arena immediately became quiet.
A graceful and beautiful woman slowly rose into the sky,
Under the spotlight, her sexy red lips lightly opened, and her charming voice echoed throughout the audience:
"Fellow Taoists, I am the host of this year's Mountain and River Ranking Competition - Li Tianrong!"
