The latest chapter is now available! Book lovers, hurry back!
The Green Lotus Sect.
The Northern Yue Kingdom, a Nascent Soul cultivator's power.
The sect has been passed down for over five thousand years and has gone through several generations of Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
Although it has fallen into decline, there is still a Nascent Soul stage cultivator holding it together.
Within the sect, there are nearly forty Core Formation cultivators, and they are quite well-known within the Northern Yue Kingdom.
now.
Inside the Azure Lotus Sect, the triennial Inner Disciple Grand Competition is underway. The results of the competition will affect the eligibility to enter the Azure Lotus Secret Realm, as well as the ownership of top-grade magic treasures.
Once you win the title.
Then one can become a core disciple of the Azure Lotus Sect and enter the core level of the sect.
Above the grand competition.
Seated atop the high jade lotus platform was a kind-faced old man in a blue robe, the hem of which was embroidered with exquisitely detailed lotus patterns.
On the other side, each side was accompanied by two sect elders at the late Core Formation stage.
All the Foundation Establishment stage inner disciples were doing their utmost to impress the sect's patriarch, using magic weapons, talismans, cultivation techniques, and spirit pets in turn.
The various combat techniques were dazzling.
"The lotus seeds in the Azure Lotus Secret Realm are about to ripen. If we can win the championship this time..."
"With the addition of several lotus seeds, the sect will surely produce another core disciple capable of reaching the Nascent Soul stage in the future."
To the right of the ancestor, a gaunt old man with a full head of white hair spoke with a hint of excitement in his voice.
"That's natural."
"In my opinion, Elder Chen's eldest grandson has exceptional talent and possesses a powerful magic weapon, so his chances this time are extremely high."
"However, Elder Wang's granddaughter has excellent wood attribute aptitude. If she had participated in the inner disciple competition in the past, she would definitely have had a chance to enter the secret realm. But this time, she can only regret it."
A thin, green-haired old man on the left shook his head and said.
They would occasionally glance at each other as they spoke.
The method to open the Azure Lotus Secret Realm is in the hands of their ancestor. If they could allow those two talented disciples to enter the secret realm this time, wouldn't that be a wonderful thing?
But that depends on what their ancestor is thinking.
All they could do was mutter a few words from the sidelines.
"well."
"The chance of forming a Nascent Soul, even with the assistance of a Nascent Soul-forming artifact, is at most 35%, and the other chance is also 30%."
The rest are less than one or two tenths.
"Is this the foundation of my Azure Lotus Sect?"
Wang Changfeng, the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Azure Lotus Sect, felt a sense of powerlessness.
Over the years, none of the disciples selected by their Qinglian Sect have met his approval.
If this continues, he will pass away in two hundred years.
Who in the Azure Lotus Sect is capable of shouldering the responsibility?
Just as Wang Changfeng was pondering something, a terrifying divine pressure that made his heart tremble suddenly descended from the sky and enveloped the entire area of the Qinglian Sect.
"That oppressive aura!"
"Transformation...transformation into a god!!"
Wang Changfeng's eyes widened immediately, a look of disbelief flashing across them.
How could a Nascent Soul stage cultivator come knocking on their door? Their Azure Lotus Sect, located in a place with a fourth-order low-grade spiritual vein, could not possibly have anything that would attract the attention of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
In the eyes of Nascent Soul stage cultivators, the best things in their sect are probably no different from the junk on the roadside.
How could that be!?
In an instant, Wang Changfeng recalled a series of memories, pondering whether their Qinglian Sect had offended anyone.
now.
The disciples and elders of the entire sect competition were all frozen in place like statues. Under the oppressive force of the Nascent Soul stage, which was like a towering mountain pressing down, their bodies were unable to move at all, as if they had been cursed.
Now only Wang Changfeng can walk freely.
Swish!
In an instant, the old man in blue robes with a weathered face appeared in the void more than ten steps in front of Wang Changfeng, as if he had appeared out of thin air, and his speed was extremely fast.
"Junior Wang Changfeng of the Qinglian Sect pays respects to Senior!"
"Senior, do you have any instructions? This junior will do my utmost to serve you!"
Sweat beaded on Wang Changfeng's forehead as he knelt directly on the ancient blue lotus stone platform, bowing his head and asking in a respectful tone.
The elders at the Core Formation stage and the disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage around them remained motionless, only glancing at their grandmaster out of the corner of their eyes, their hearts filled with unparalleled shock.
"Come with me and let us unlock the secret realm behind this mountain."
"I want to take a look at your secret realm."
The old man in blue, Qi Yuan, looked down at the Nascent Soul stage cultivator kneeling on the ground.
The entire Nascent Soul sect here has been thoroughly searched, and there isn't a single spiritual cultivator with fourth-order bloodline aptitude.
The only thing that remains unclear is the location of that secret realm within the sect. There is a very active spatial node in the back mountain, which is clearly the location of the entrance to that secret realm.
Divine senses could not detect the secret realm.
We need to get this little Nascent Soul stage cultivator to open it.
If we actually find it, we'll be incredibly lucky.
A spiritual cultivator with no significant background and the aptitude of a Nascent Soul bloodline, if nurtured into a Nascent Soul stage spirit pet in the future, will naturally have a great advantage when fighting among those of the same level.
If you encounter that old demon Zhou from the Hun Tian Sect again in the future, he will definitely envy you for having a spirit pet with the potential to become a Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Yes, senior."
Wang Changfeng, who was kneeling on the ground, heard what the Nascent Soul stage elder said and a sense of doubt arose in his mind.
He knew all too well what was inside that secret realm.
Even the fourth-tier green lotus in that secret realm only had lotus seeds that had just matured; apart from that, the rest were all third-tier spiritual objects.
Could a Nascent Soul stage monster really come here just to steal the lotus seeds of their Azure Lotus Sect?
Who would believe that if I told them that?
In the blink of an eye, Wang Changfeng transformed into a streak of azure light and headed towards the back mountain. Qi Yuan followed closely behind, and in just a few breaths, they arrived at an ancient stone platform on the back mountain, surrounded by eight stone statues of dragon-headed Qilin beasts.
With a thought, Wang Changfeng took out a magic token capable of opening secret realms from his sea of consciousness. After injecting his Nascent Soul stage magic power, the array patterns on the token were activated.
Each of the eight stone statues emitted a remarkable fluctuation of spiritual energy.
A vortex covering an area of more than ten feet appeared in the middle of the stone platform.
Qi Yuan grabbed Wang Changfeng, and the two entered the Azure Lotus Secret Realm together.
In the secret realm.
Qi Yuan's divine sense, being at the Nascent Soul stage, swept across the area, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes a few breaths later.
No.
That little guy with the Nascent Soul stage bloodline talent is indeed very good at hiding his abilities. This is the third Nascent Soul stage power that Qi Yuan has visited.
Without hesitation, Qi Yuan left the secret realm. Looking at Wang Changfeng standing behind him, he casually took out a blue talisman, which contained an extremely strong fluctuation of Nascent Soul power.
"You can leave this item within the sect."
Exclusive! An exclusive interview with Black Tiger True Monarch Z and behind-the-scenes details of the creation of "Seeking Immortality Through a Hundred Lifetimes: From a Low-Ranking Corpse to an Eternal Demon God," available only on Cola Novels.
"It must not be brought into the secret realm."
After Qi Yuan finished speaking,
It then transformed into a barely perceptible wisp of blue light, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.
A few breaths later.
The overwhelming pressure of the Nascent Soul stage that had enveloped the entire Azure Lotus Sect suddenly dissipated, but Wang Changfeng was at a loss as he looked at the blue talisman floating in front of him.
He now understood that this senior in the Nascent Soul stage seemed to be searching for something.
The reason for letting them open the secret realm was that their divine sense was definitely not enough to cross over and explore that secret realm.
This is something that could make a Nascent Soul stage monster go to such lengths to find.
It is highly likely that he is also a Nascent Soul stage being.
Are they enemies?
Or is it some kind of treasure?
Or perhaps some kind of spirit pet?
There are too many possibilities, but no matter what, this talisman is always a sword hanging over the heads of their Azure Lotus Sect.
This is a spiritual object capable of attracting a Nascent Soul stage expert.
However, fortune and misfortune are intertwined.
With this talisman, if other Nascent Soul stage sects attack their Azure Lotus Sect, even just showing off this talisman would be enough to intimidate those ignorant Nascent Soul stage forces.
Immediately, Wang Changfeng sent out a talisman to inform the elders who were in the sect's grand competition that the competition would be postponed.
Those disciples in the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining stages were momentarily stunned by the divine sense pressure of the Nascent Soul stage cultivator, which greatly depleted their spiritual energy.
Continuing the competition will not yield any results.
All disciples can go and rest; the event will resume in six months.
...
...
a few days later.
Mount Akiyama.
Noon.
The autumn wind was bleak in the mountains, and the ground in the mountain forests looked like it was covered with a red carpet.
At this moment, on the back mountain of the Four Seasons Academy.
Inside the secluded cave.
The stone door of the cave, which had been closed for several days, slowly opened, and a handsome young man in a white robe walked out. His sleeves fluttered without wind, giving him an otherworldly and refined air.
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Su on successfully advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage!"
Congratulations, Junior Brother Su!
The leopard demon Black Earth looked at the young man who came out, and his eyes lit up. Such a young early Foundation Establishment cultivator was very likely to advance to the middle Foundation Establishment stage in the future. At that time, the two second-tier spiritual veins, White Bone Ridge and Giant Bone Peak, might change hands.
They can take over two second-tier mountains in Qiulan Mountain, but at least one.
"Senior Brother Black Soil."
"Senior Brother Huangyue."
"It was truly a stroke of luck that Junior Brother was able to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage this time. It's all thanks to the Foundation Establishment spiritual items Senior Brother Huang Yue prepared for me; otherwise, the breakthrough would have been extremely difficult!"
Now that Lin Li has advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage in this life, he can naturally address these two Foundation Establishment cultivators from Qiulan Mountain as fellow Daoists.
"Junior brother is too modest."
"Oh, right."
"This is a congratulatory gift from Junior Brother Shan."
"He is currently stationed in the spirit mine and cannot easily go out. This is a second-grade low-grade spirit crystal material that he refined from the spirit crystals he has accumulated in the spirit mine over the years, and forged a second-grade low-grade flying needle."
"After being refined, this flying needle can be considered a valuable asset when fighting against opponents of the same level."
Immediately, Huang Yue raised his hand and took out a deep red wooden box from his storage bag. Inside the box was a flying needle interwoven with red and blue colors. The flying needle was only three or four inches long and was very thin.
Lin Li's divine sense landed on the flying needle, and then he transferred a wisp of his own foundation-building mana into it.
hum!
A red and blue magical energy fluctuation was released from the flying needle. It suddenly flew out of the wooden box, turned into a swift afterimage, circled around Lin Li a few times, and then landed in Lin Li's palm.
"The flying needles that Senior Brother Shan gave me are really good."
"I will definitely thank you when I see you again in the future."
A hint of joy appeared in Lin Li's eyes.
These second-tier flying needles are indeed quite good. It would take at least several decades of accumulation to extract such a small amount of second-tier material from that spirit stone mine, and in most cases, extracting second-tier material depends on luck.
"Your senior brother Shan is indeed very thoughtful."
"He intended to sell this item in Xuanyu City."
"I didn't expect to give it to you directly, junior brother."
Heitu chimed in from the side.
"Junior brother, when will the Foundation Establishment celebration be held?"
Huang Yue continued to ask.
"Just listen to Senior Brother Huangyue."
Lin Li cupped his hands and said.
"it is good."
"In that case, let's do it on the eighth day of next month. Then we can send invitations to White Tiger Ridge and Giant Bone Peak, as well as Hundred Flowers Peak, Xuanyu City, and to Fellow Daoist Sun behind the Sun family's weapon-refining shop."
After pondering for a moment, Huang Yue spoke.
"Senior brother."
"Should we still invite Giant Bone Peak?"
"Over the past ten years, after their deeds at Giant Bone Peak were exposed, their style and actions have become increasingly ruthless."
"Lady White Bone is practicing some kind of secret technique or supernatural power; at least several hundred Qi Refining cultivators have been killed or injured."
"Even the reputation of our Qiulan Mountain and Baihu Ridge has been affected to some extent."
"Those Qi Refining stage cultivators don't dare to migrate to our area anymore."
Hei Tu frowned and spoke up.
"Junior Brother Su's advancement to Foundation Establishment is the most important event for our Qiulan Mountain. Although Giant Bone Peak is known for its evil cultivation practices, we can use this Foundation Establishment celebration as an opportunity to see if they dare to come."
"If they come, they can also glean something from the other side."
"However, in my opinion, those fellow Daoists from Giant Bone Peak and White Bone Ridge probably won't come."
"That's why we invited two fellow Daoists from Hundred Flowers Peak, as well as Fellow Daoist Sun from Xuanyu City, who has been cooperating with Qiulan Mountain for many years."
Huangyue replied.
"By the way, Junior Brother Su."
"The Sun family, an immortal clan that runs a weapon-refining shop in Xuanyu City, is someone we should pay attention to. Xuanyu City is a third-tier high-grade spiritual vein immortal city. If Junior Brother Su wants to advance further in his cultivation in the future, it would be more reliable to go to Xuanyu City for advancement than to our Qiulan Mountain."
"When we exchange spirit stones with the Sun family's weapon-refining shop in six months, I'll take you to Xuanyu City."
Hei Tu spoke up.
Subsequently, Huang Yue gave Lin Li a control talisman from the Qiulan Mountain array plate. With this talisman, he could freely enter and exit the array barrier of Qiulan Mountain, and he could also use the talisman to mobilize the power of the array to enhance himself.
When fighting other cultivators of the same level in Autumn Mist Mountain, the combat power can be increased by at least 20% with the help of the formation.
...
at the same time.
From outside the forest of white bones on Giant Bone Peak, three streaks of light, like black smoke, flew over and landed inside the cave in the mountainside, which was filled with the aura of corpses.
