Shen Qingluo and Xia Jinxi were naturally unaware of the conversation between the three great powers.
No, it can be said Xia Jinxi vaguely aware. Because it seems in this siege after auction that the protagonist and her friend show off their talent and being promised to become direct disciple of powerful master. This is a moment she longed for, that's why she immediately show her full strength hoping it can impress them.
This place is very close to Taisheng Sect. As early as the beginning of the battle, many cultivators in the sect had noticed it, and many escape lights flew out from the peak.
However, the next moment, these cultivators received a message from the great power in the sect, asking them not to take action.
It was precisely because of this that the strange black smoke spread for a while, but no middle or high-level cultivators came to deal with it.
The great power of Taisheng Sect did this to test the adaptability of Shen Qingluo and Xia Jinxi.
Once they were unable to resist, the three great powers would immediately take action to rescue them.
As the Silent Fire Art continued to be performed, the blazing fire devoured the thick black smoke bit by bit.
After about a cup of tea, the highly corrosive black smoke completely disappeared.
Shen Qingluo stopped pinching the art, and her tense mind finally relaxed. At this time, the second defensive talisman on her body also ran out of spiritual light and shattered with a bang.
Xia Jinxi came to her side, took a closer look, confirmed that her friend was not injured, and finally showed a smile of rebirth on her face.
"Qingluo, thanks to you this time, otherwise my path would have ended today."
Shen Qingluo shook her head, "To be honest, it was me who implicated you. Their target was me, and the person who threw the spherical object earlier, if you hadn't detonated two in advance, when three of them gathered together, the power would have doubled, and I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to handle it."
Thinking of the previous situation, Xia Jinxi's expression became solemn again, "What exactly is that black ball? I think I have learned a lot of treasures since I joined the sect, but I have never heard of this kind of thing."
As soon as the voice fell, a voice as bright as pearls and jade rang in the ears of the two people at the same time.
"This thing is called Shaling Pill, which is made by imitating the Juelingtongsha Pill of the Demon Sect. After it is sacrificed, no matter whether it is attacked or not, as long as it touches other objects, it will explode immediately. The black smoke is not only corrosive, but once the cultivator touches it, his spiritual power will be polluted in an instant. If it is not removed, even if he survives by chance, his cultivation will be difficult to improve."
Shen Qingluo and Xia Jinxi did not sense that there was anyone nearby, and there was a distance limit for the cultivator to transmit sound. The higher the cultivation, the farther the sound can be transmitted.
They immediately reacted that the owner of this sound transmission had a cultivation level far superior to theirs, and it was very likely to be an elder of the sect!
The next moment, the two felt a huge soft force descending on their bodies, and the whole person flew up uncontrollably.
Because their spiritual sense did not sense any danger, they did not resist.
The scene in front of them changed for a while. After landing again and standing firm, Xia Jinxi found that she was on a mountain she had never been to before, with a clear spring flowing not far away.
Her friend was right beside her. Looking ahead, she saw a woman with a cold face, hair tied in a Taoist bun, and wearing a dark blue Taoist robe.
Judging from her appearance, the woman was very young. Because of the huge difference in their cultivation, Xia Jinxi could not judge her bone age.
She bowed respectfully to her and was about to ask her when she spoke first.
"My Taoist name is Yunhua, and I am the leader of the Law Enforcement Peak of the Taisheng Sect. After the trip to Yanlan Cave Heaven is over, if you are interested in becoming my disciple, you can consider becoming my disciple together. Of course, whether you become my disciple or not depends entirely on your own wishes."
The name of Yunhua Yuanjun is well-known to all the cultivators in the Lingyun World. When she practiced the Killing Sword Dao and the Sound Attack Qin Dao together, she was able to cross levels and kill Yuanying when she was still at the Jindan level.
Now they are in the late Mahayana realm, and there are few rivals in the Lingyun World.
Xia Jinxi never expected that this great woman would actually express her desire to accept her as a disciple.
Yunhua Yuanjun was described in the original book. She was cold and taciturn, and had a clear distinction between gratitude and resentment. What was emphasized was her powerful strength, which had always been feared by many powerful people in Daoyi Sect.
Xia Jinxi was naturally willing to worship this person as a teacher, and Shen Qingluo was no exception.
Unlike most elders in the sect, Yunhua Yuanjun had a great reputation, and all cultivators knew her character, so they were naturally relieved.
The two immediately expressed their willingness. After receiving the reply, Yunhua Yuanjun's cold face rarely showed a smile.
"The sect competition will be held in two days, so prepare well."
Shen Qingluo and Xia Jinxi responded in unison. The next moment, the scene in front of the two changed again, but in a moment, they realized that they had returned to Yunxian Peak.
Not only that, there were also three storage bags that appeared with them. Judging from their colors and patterns, they belonged to the three Qi Refining Level 9 cultivators who were killed.
They killed three people, and according to the tacit rules of the cultivation world, the things that the three people originally owned became their trophies.
After putting away the spoils, she felt a little emotional.
"Is this the method of the great senior? It's like moving the world in a breath. I really hope that one day I can do this!"
Now that they have not really become disciples, when they mention Yunhua Yuanjun, they can only call her senior temporarily.
Shen Qingluo said with a smile: "Senior mentioned at the beginning that after the trip to Yanlan Cave Heaven is over, this sentence shows that the senior is very optimistic about us and believes that we can get into the top 100 in the sect competition."
"So we must do our best and not let the senior down!"
"Yes!"
That night, the two returned to their caves. After Xia Jinxi put on the spiritual weapon golden armor shield and green jade hairpin that she bought, she took out the green spirit beast egg and placed it on the open space beside.
There was a special person to identify the auction, but it was still impossible to tell what kind of spirit beast egg it was. She rarely paid attention to spirit beasts, so naturally she couldn't recognize it.
After thinking for a while, Xia Jinxi simply asked the Peach Blossom Fairy, "Do you know how to save this spirit beast egg?"
"The vitality in this spirit beast egg is indeed insufficient. If you can find some rare treasures of heaven and earth, such as the Qianling Green Fruit, crush the fruit after finding it, and apply the juice on the surface of the eggshell may work."
"Qianling Green Fruit? I've heard that the flesh contains rich vitality, but apply it on the surface of the eggshell? Are you sure it can be absorbed? Don't you need any skills or spiritual techniques to assist?"
"Absolutely sure! Although this spirit beast has not hatched, as long as it is still alive, the instinct for survival will drive it to actively absorb everything it can absorb and restore its own qi and blood vitality."
"Well, the Qianling Qingxian fruit is rare, but after I get into the top 100 of the sect competition and enter Yanlan Cave Heaven, I may have a chance to find some."
There are still two days before the sect competition begins. Xia Jinxi did not wait in the cave. After properly placing the spirit beast egg in space, she immediately devoted herself to cultivation.
The sun and the moon alternated, and with the sound of a grand bell, the sect competition officially kicked off.
At the first quarter of the morning, before dawn, Shen Qingluo and his good friend Xia Jinxi came to Xiwu Peak together.
There were many disciples participating in this sect competition, and the number of the draw was 10,000.
Because Xia Jinxi and Shen Qingluo both signed up on the last day, the corresponding draw number was at the end, which 9,998 and 9,999 respectively.
Xiwu Peak has been the venue for the sect competition since ancient times. The entire mountain is cut off from the middle, and the original mountainside position has become the top of the mountain. In this way, more fighting arenas can be set up.
There are a total of 5,000 matches in the first round. There are a total of 200 arenas in Xiwu Peak, which need to be divided into 25 batches.
The process of drawing lots uses a magic weapon, the spiritual stone. After this treasure is activated, it can change its size freely.
Xia Jinxi didn't know how the magic weapon worked specifically. She only saw the spiritual stone turned into a giant object as high as ten feet, and then a crack appeared in the center, swallowing all the draw numbers!
Not long after, the entire boulder lit up, and dense words appeared in the air and gradually enlarged.
Shen Qingluo and Xia Jinxi soon saw their own draw numbers.
Number 9,999 vs. Number 805, Arena No. 10, the fourth batch.
Number 9,998 vs. Number 1,300, Arena No. 81, the fourth batch.
