198. Academy

Gong Yulan smiled: "Compared with the magic of the immortal family, what is the taste of power in the mortal world?" As for cultivating immortals, with the ability of the Gongtai royal family, it is indeed not difficult to send me into an ordinary sect, in the territory of Gongtai, Bailongguan and Ciyun Mountain are all sects within the four grades of the Wanxian League......" said, smiling slightly mocking, "But compared to the five top sects of the Wanxian League, the four grades taste like chewing wax, not to mention ......"

Gong Yulan looked at the sky and said with emotion, "Now except for the five major sects, almost no sect can really touch the Immortal Dao, there are more than 10,000 large and small sects in the Ten Thousand Immortal League, only these five families have truly mastered the way of detachment, and since they want to cultivate the Dao, they naturally cultivate the way of detachment, otherwise it is better to be a comfortable emperor." โ€

Yuan Yufei was surprised: "You know a lot." โ€

"Since you have chosen this path, of course you have to inquire a little more...... These are not any secrets, not to mention that who is not prepared for the immortal fate who has rushed to the foot of the Fire Refining Mountain to seek immortal fate now? Trembled? โ€

Yuan Yufei shrugged and smiled, and said in his heart that I am not, a strong life should be a naked test, prepare a ball.

The two walked side by side, and the golden bridge stretched all the way up, quite steep, but neither of them felt tired, and gradually advanced from the end of the line.

Looking at the young man who kept passing by, Gong Yulan said again: "Speaking of which, before this Immortal Ascension Conference in Spirit Sword Mountain, the five major sects have not opened the mountain gate so widely for a hundred years, and even if there is an occasional Immortal Ascension Conference, it is also restrictive, so this time it is really a gathering of wind and clouds." โ€

Yuan Yufei turned his head and looked around: "There are indeed many second generations, and this specification is enough to buy a Haitian feast." โ€

Gong Yulan said: "Hehe, these people are not only illustrious, at least as far as I know, more than eighty percent of them have natural spiritual roots, that is, organic monks. โ€

"What!?"

Yang Tianxin, who was following behind, was surprised, and couldn't help asking, "How do you know?" โ€

Gong Yulan glanced back and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate me, the prince of the Yuntai Empire, I can name most of the people here...... What's more, without some real skills, who dares to come to Lingjian Mountain? Among the five major sects, Lingjian Mountain and Kunlun Immortal Mountain are well-known ancient sects, and the stubbornness of Lingjian Mountain is still above Kunlun. โ€

Gong Yulan said that Yuan Yufei didn't care at all, but Yang Tianxin's face became more and more ugly, obviously remembering the bacon spirit and other things in his backpack. Although Yang Tianxin believed in Yuan Yufei, she was still very nervous. Yang Tianxin's cultivation is low, and her spiritual root is even worse, the main reason why she was selected by the Fire Refining Academy is that Yang Tianxin's alchemy skills are superb. After coming to the Fire Refining Academy, Yang Tianxin felt that she had no hope of being selected, and she was disheartened. Yuan Yufei encouraged her, and took the spiritual root cultivation method from Yue Wuying. Yang Tianxin regained his strength, but the cultivation of spiritual roots is different from natural spiritual roots. And Yang Tianxin only dared to use the spiritual root cultivation method to enter the Fire Refining Academy, because she believed in Yuan Yufei, Yuan Yufei said that the Fire Refining Academy of the spiritual root cultivation method she provided would definitely not be able to find it. Otherwise, decent people are very disgusted with this kind of acquired spiritual root. If he knew that Yang Tianxin's spiritual root had been cultivated, he would definitely not let her enter the Fire Refining Academy, and would have driven her out. In this way, Yang Tianxin's life reputation was ruined.

It is precisely because of this incident that Yang Tianxin swore that she would be loyal to Yuan Yufei all her life and be Yuan Yufei's personal maid.

However, Yang Tianxin was weak after all, so Gong Yulan promoted the cultivation of spiritual roots, Yang Tianxin was still very unconvinced, and she was also very worried, afraid that she would be discovered.

So Gong Yulan smiled: "But then again, in this Immortal Ascension Conference, the Spirit Sword Sect is only within the age of sixteen, but it doesn't mention anything about the spiritual root, maybe it has changed its stubbornness?" The remaining one or two adults out of the thousand people are here to gamble on this luck......" paused, "but I'm really not optimistic." โ€

While speaking, the group of three people had been walking on the golden bridge for a long time, gradually falling into the clouds, and the Lingxi Town behind them had shrunk to the size of a cardboard box, and Yang Tianxin followed closely behind the two, and he didn't dare to look back.

However, even so, the golden bridge is still endless, the clouds and mist in front of him do not stop, and there are constantly tired teenagers around him who are standing still, and before they know it, the group has gradually walked to the front of the team.

Yuan Yufei sighed continuously: "You sons and brothers are really weak, and they are physically exhausted after walking this little slope, and they were hollowed out by wine at a young age." โ€

It was an ordinary teasing remark, but Gong Yulan was surprised when she heard it, and opened her mouth but didn't say anything. Isn't Yuan Yufei tired at all? Gong Yulan felt exhausted? It's just that she has always been arrogant and didn't show it.

Yang Tianxin behind him complained: "Yuan Yufei, I feel extremely tired when I walk this way, and I can't hold it anymore." โ€

Yuan Yufei frowned: "When you eat at home on weekdays, you don't miss the fish and meat, why is it as useless as those waste firewood?" Didn't it just make you carry an extra food box? Wronged like this? โ€

Yang Tianxin was very aggrieved: "No, this road feels very weird, obviously I haven't gone too far, but tired people can't breathe......"

"Then breathe through your skin...... Forget it, give me the luggage, you can travel light. โ€

Yuan Yufei sighed as he took Yang Tianxin's backpack food box and carried it without difficulty.

"Weird, how do I feel easier walking than on flat ground?"

"Yuan Yufei, you have always been so weird......"

The master and servant walked forward as they spoke, but they didn't pay attention, and Gong Yulan on the side had a solemn face.

Without luggage, Yang Tianxin was much more relaxed, and once again kept up with Yuan Yufei's footsteps and climbed up. This time, I don't know how long I walked in one go, and there was already a sea of clouds and mist all around, and even the light of the golden bridge was disguised a little, and the three of them walked in the middle, and they couldn't even see the edge of the golden bridge.

Most of the previous ones have been overtaken, and only a few are still ahead, but they also seem to be out of breath.

At this time, even Yuan Yufei noticed the problem: "Isn't this road?" People who have broken the pure yin body will get more and more tired when they walk? โ€

"How can I!?"

"Then why are you sweating profusely?"

"I ......"

"Sure enough, it's still broken, Yang Tianxin, you really can do it."

Yang Tianxin almost knelt: "Yuan Yufei begs don't talk about it......"

Gong Yulan watched from the side, smiled, and said to Yuan Yufei: "You and Yang Tianxin are also extraordinary, you have insisted all the way to the present." โ€

"Is this a hairy extraordinary? If the people in the village can't even walk the mountain road, they are not as good as a pig, and this guy is Yang Tianxin, and his luggage has to be carried by Yuan Yufei, who is Yuan Yufei? โ€

Gong Yulan shook her head: "Your requirements are too high...... Okay, I'm very happy to go along the way, but there is a banquet in the world, let's separate here. โ€

"Huh!? What's wrong? โ€

Yuan Yufei's eyes widened, feeling disappointed. Talking all the way, it's not just Gong Yulan who is happy, Yuan Yufei has lived in Wangjia Village for more than ten years, and this is the first time I feel like I've found a confidant! I said before that I would cover him after going up the mountain, half of it was a joke, and half of it was true.

Although he is a mountain and wild horseman, Yuan Yufei really didn't take Gong Yulan, who is the prince, as an outsider.

Gong Yulan nodded at Yuan Yufei's kindness, and then explained: "It's nothing, I just feel that there is no need to go up recklessly, it's enough to get here." โ€

Yuan Yufei was still puzzled.

"If you don't understand, you don't understand, anyway, I've found a place that suits me, and I'm going to ...... next."

Gong Yulan walked up to Yuan Yufei and whispered, "Be careful of your friend Yang Tianxin, in the name of loyalty, but there is some anti-bone hyperplasia." โ€

At this time, a gust of wind was blowing, and Yuan Yufei couldn't help but close his eyes: "What did you say?" โ€

But when she turned her head, Gong Yulan had disappeared, and when she asked Yang Tianxin, Yang Tianxin also signaled that she was inexplicable.

The clouds and fog around him became thicker, and the body was hazy after opening five meters, Yuan Yufei touched his chin: "Could it be that he has gone with the breeze, and he has ascended to immortal?" โ€

"Huh?"

"Come on, let's keep going...... I don't know when it was a head. โ€

However, it didn't go very far.

It's not that the end has come, it's not that Yuan Yufei is physically exhausted, but that Yang Tianxin really can't walk.

Obviously, all the luggage had been put on Yuan Yufei's back, but as the two of them continued to advance, Yang Tianxin's physical strength lost faster and faster, and finally she almost fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

"I said, you ......"

Yang Tianxin didn't wait for Yuan Yufei to speak, and hurriedly said: "Yuan Yufei, you go first, Yang Tianxin is incompetent, so I can only send you here." โ€

"So I said at the beginning that you shouldn't come, and now I'll put on this face of righteousness and death......" Yuan Yufei looked at Yang Tianxin, who was almost paralyzed, helplessly, and finally shook his head, "Forget it, I can't leave you here alone, I'll rest with you for a while, alas, there are only a few people left in front of me...... I don't know what the benefits of being in first place are, but it's an achievement. โ€

Yang Tianxin was even more ashamed, bowing her head and being speechless.

Yuan Yufei didn't say more, put down his luggage and sat on the ground, but just as he sat down, the clouds and fog around him dissipated, the golden light was dim, and a lush valley suddenly appeared beside the master and servant.

Yuan Yufei opened his mouth wide and looked at the abruptly changed surroundings.

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Is this a crossing? โ€

"Congratulations to ...... two"

"Damn!? Where is the wickedness!? โ€

The sound that suddenly appeared behind him frightened Yuan Yufei into a spirit, but he jumped up and turned around, only to find that at some point, there were two more young men in blue and white robes behind him, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, although the color of the robes was different, the style was similar to the two black and white brothers in Luojinqiao, and they should be spiritual sword disciples.

The two disciples looked indifferent, and one of the older ones, Chong Yuan Yufei and Yang Tianxin, arched his hand: "Disciple of Xiaoyao Peak of the Fire Refining Academy, I am Zhang Ying, this is Lu Ming." โ€

Yuan Yufei sighed.

"Congratulations to the two of you for climbing all the way to this point on the Golden Bridge, according to the rules of the master's gate, you can return to the mountain gate with our brothers and sisters and enter the Xiaoyao Peak to cultivate."

"......" Yuan Yufei frowned and said nothing.

Zhang Ying did not urge, and silently waited for Yuan Yufei's response.

After a while, Yuan Yufei was still silent, but Yang Tianxin said softly: "This immortal, immortal, what do you mean...... We, already, have been taken over by your faction? โ€

Zhang Ying nodded: "Yes, that's right." โ€

Lu Ming added: "The Ascending Immortal Golden Bridge was built by the head of the sect to judge the qualifications of the monks. The better the qualifications, the farther you can go on the bridge, and if you can get here, you will meet the entry standard. โ€

Yang Tianxin was stunned for a moment, ecstatic: "This, is this true?" โ€

"It's true."

"Yuan Yufei! Did you hear that? We did it! We've been accepted by the Fire Refining Academy! โ€

Yuan Yufei shook his head: "Excuse me, who are the two who fell off the Golden Bridge before ......?" โ€

Zhang Ying's face was slightly unnatural: "They? They are the senior brothers of the Ethereal Peak. โ€ยท

"Ethereal Peak? Loose Peak? What's the difference? โ€

Zhang Ying sank his face: "Why are you asking so much?" โ€

Lu Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Senior brother, there's nothing to be embarrassed to admit...... From the outside, the Fire Refining Mountain looks like a lone peak, but in fact there are many peaks, the so-called Xiaoyao Peak is actually the outer gate of the Fire Refining Mountain, and the Ethereal Peak is where the inner gate is located, but the two senior brothers are not the same as us. โ€

Yuan Yufei smiled: "I'll just say, those two black and white are obviously much bigger than the blue and white shelves of you two." Then he was a little suspicious, "However, the Fire Refining Academy only relies on that golden bridge to admit newcomers?" Walk here and enter the outer door, and then what? What if you can enter the inner door in one breath? โ€

Lu Ming said: "Of course it's impossible, the selection of the inner gate of the Fire Refining Academy is extremely strict, and the qualifications, temperament, and immortal fate must be above the level, otherwise with qualifications alone, even the Heavenly Spirit Root probably won't be able to enter the eyes of the Ethereal Peak Lord, right?" โ€

Yuan Yufei: "Day." โ€

"Huh?"

Yuan Yufei smiled: "It's nothing, so for us newcomers, what is the point of wanting to enter the inner door?" โ€

Zhang Ying snorted coldly: "Want to enter the Ethereal Peak? That's also simple, well, from here all the way forward is the Ethereal Peak, you can walk, the peak master will naturally accept you. โ€

Yuan Yufei looked in the direction of Zhang Ying's finger, and in front of the long narrow road in the valley, another cloud and mist covered the way.

"How far is it?"

Lu Ming smiled: "Then it's fate, maybe it's far away, or maybe it's close at hand, the road to immortal ascension is normal." โ€

Zhang Ying asked, "How are you going to choose?" Is it to go back to Xiaoyao Peak with us? Or continue on this path to immortality? As I explained in advance, after this village, there will be no such shop. โ€

Yuan Yufei said: "That is to say, if you choose to continue, you can only go all the way to the Ethereal Peak?" โ€

Zhang Ying sneered: "That's right, either go all the way to the inner gate of the Ethereal Peak and enter the Fire Refining Academy, or the path to immortal ascension will end here and return to your red mortal world." Since you can't look down on us Xiaoyao Peak, don't expect us to be used as a guarantee, although Xiaoyao Peak is an outer door, you don't want sugarcane that people have chewed. โ€

"Do you want to say it so seriously? I don't think you're a third-class citizen of the Fire Refining Academy, and you can't be a waste of firewood. โ€

"What did you say!?"

Yuan Yufei shrugged: "In short, since you are here, and you know that the road to immortal ascension is not over, of course you have to go to the end in one go." โ€

"Hmph, don't regret it...... Don't think that Xiaoyao Peak is really inferior because it is an outer door, my Xiaoyao Peak senior brother is not much inferior to the true disciple. Among the 1,000 of you, there is not one in ten who can get here, so cherish your chance. โ€

At this time, Yang Tianxin also nodded and said, "Yuan Yufei, or ...... Let's go to Xiaoyao Peak, right? โ€

"If you want to go, you can go, why do you need to ask for my permission."

"Ah......" Yang Tianxin suddenly made a bitter face, "Yuan Yufei, I was specially sent by the city lord to take care of you, how can I leave you alone......"

Yuan Yufei smiled, looked at Yang Tianxin's wrinkled face, opened his mouth, and finally shook his head and said, "Anyway, I'm going to move forward, just follow if you want to." โ€

Zhang Ying glanced at the two of them.

"You two, don't regret it, let me remind you first, the second half of the path to immortal ascension is far more difficult than you imagined, and there have been no cases that have been successfully passed in the past three hundred years. In the past Immortal Ascension Conference, the disciples recruited were up to Xiaoyao Peak. The way for the Fire Refining Academy to recruit inner disciples is for the elders of the sect to go out and look for immortal fate. Maybe ten years, maybe a hundred years can find a good seedling. But the road to immortality is almost impassable. โ€

"It doesn't matter, I have been professionally adventurous for decades, and my nickname is Ascension Immortal Kaisailu, so why worry about the difficulties and dangers."

Zhang Ying tilted his head: "...... Hmph, that's all I'm saying, you'll do it yourself! โ€

Yuan Yufei laughed, and then waved goodbye to Lu Ming: "Then, Senior Brother Lu Ming, I look forward to seeing you again in the mountain gate in the future." โ€

Lu Ming also smiled: "There are a few newcomers I've seen before, none of them are as familiar as you, so I'll say one more thing, the road to immortal ascension is normal, and every grass and tree is fate." โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Is this a satire of someone's mercy? โ€

"Haha, what do you mean to realize it yourself, if you say more, I will be punished by the master, good luck!"

Zhang Yingyi pulled his junior brother: "Okay, I can't explain you like this...... The next wave seems to be coming, so let's get ready to welcome people. โ€

As the two spoke, they reached out and tore the mountain clouds around their ankles, and then slowly flew away from the valley and disappeared.

In the valley, Yuan Yufei and Yang Tianxin looked at each other.

"Yuan Yufei, is it really okay to give up like this?"

"Of course not, who said I was going to give up!? The level behind Xiaoyao Peak can make the world's talents helpless for more than 300 years, if you don't witness it with your own eyes, can you be willing? โ€

As a result, Yang Tianxin nodded very unhappily: "Willing, very willing!" Yuan Yufei You can come this far, I never dreamed of it, when you said that you were going to participate in the Immortal Ascension Conference of the Fire Refining Academy, the people in Beicang City thought you were crazy, and the city lord also told me before I went out, if I was eliminated and came back, I could go to the nearby big city with Yuan Yufei to relax, who would have thought that Yuan Yufei You really ...... Really come this far? โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Which step? The real path to immortality has just begun, right? โ€

Looking at Yang Tianxin's puzzled gaze, Yuan Yufei made an exception and explained his strategy experience for him.

"There are three main points, the first is what the two blue and white said, the road to ascending to immortality is a test of multiple elements, qualifications, temperament, and chance, and now we have just passed the qualification level, no, it is not even a real qualification test, but it is just a threshold that must be passed, and you are embarrassed to say that the road to immortality has come to this point?"

"But ......"

"But Xiaoyao Peak has opened its doors? Don't be stupid, the second point, that Lan Bai just said that the senior brother of Xiaoyao Peak is not much worse than the true disciple, even if there is an exaggeration, but he should also be an excellent talent, but such an excellent senior brother, why is he still staying in Xiaoyao Peak? Why not Ethereal Peak? โ€

"Why, why ......?"

"Just like the other people who come here and feel that they are amazing, and that it is a great honor to join Xiaoyao Peak...... That's the end of their limit. If you choose the easy difficulty, don't complain that you can't see the hidden plot. โ€

"Huh?"

"Forget it, you don't understand. What is the third point......

Yuan Yufei raised his head, his gaze became deeper in the clouds, but there seemed to be a flame burning in his pupils.

"As a raider, you should have the momentum to break through the clouds and the sky and break through all difficulties!"

"Huh!?"

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ In short, I must continue to walk, follow you or not, anyway, those two blue and white have already slapped their butts and left, and it is impossible for you to turn back haha! โ€

Yuan Yufei said, picked up his luggage again, and strode forward.

"In addition, Yang Tianxin, the next journey will probably be super long, get ready."

Yang Tianxin, who was already a little tired, asked, "How long is it?" โ€

"If you use a storybook as a metaphor, it's about 70,000 or 80,000 words."

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ That's really, really long. โ€

"The ethereal road is not as easy to walk as the Golden Bridge of the Fire Refining Academy." Above the long sea of clouds, an old man with gray hair stroked his beard and said in a deep voice.

"Senior Brother Dean set today's meeting twelve years ago, the world's elites gathered, it is indeed extraordinary, there are nearly 100 people who have walked through four-fifths of the Golden Bridge alone, but they are all geniuses who can enter Xiaoyao Peak with the spirit root attribute alone."

A young black-and-white-robed monk beside him smiled and said, "Master, doesn't he already have a favorite candidate?" โ€

The old man was disdainful: "Hmph, walking across the golden bridge can only show that the quality of the spiritual root is acceptable, it is not so easy to enter my Ethereal Peak, this hundred people, in the end, there can be ten left, it is not bad." โ€

As he spoke, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Well, there's no need to be so strict."

On the clouds, the two monks, one old and one young, were startled, and when they turned their heads, they were even more frightened.

"Courtyard, Senior Brother Dean!?"

Suddenly appeared behind him, and it was the leader of the Fire Refining Academy, the Fire Dance Real Man.

"Yo, don't be so nervous." Huo Wuzhen smiled and waved his hand, "I'm just here to take a look, behind the golden bridge is the Ethereal Peak of Senior Brother Cangcheng, this is the backbone of our mountain gate." โ€

Cang Cheng's face was serious, and he bowed his head and said: "Back then, Senior Brother entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, and Cang Cheng never dared to slack off in the slightest. โ€

"You've worked hard all these years, looking at the grand occasion of the Ethereal Peak now, it's really hard to imagine the scene back then...... However, since this conference is specially held, there is no need to be too strict with newcomers, if there is a agreeable one, accept it. โ€

Cang Cheng was a little embarrassed: "Senior brother, that's not in accordance with the rules." โ€

"Heh, the rules depend on the situation, the people of the Fire Refining Academy have withered for too long, don't you think it's time to have a lively time?"

"To be honest, I don't think it's enough to have one of the five junior sisters."

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ I asked her to help design the Immortal Ascension Conference, but it turned out to be a mess for me, and my brain was about to explode in the past few days...... Well? I have the impression that this kid has quite good qualifications, and it is worth paying attention to. โ€

As he spoke, the real person pointed to the clouds, and the two villains who had been transformed into clouds came to life, and they were the two masters and servants from Wangjia Village.

Cang Cheng was surprised: "Senior brother, are you very optimistic about them?" Well, these two guys did a good job on the Golden Bridge......"

"Heh, Jinqiao is just a gadget that you can do casually, you don't have to take it too seriously."

"Senior brother is humble, the Ascending Immortal Golden Bridge can accurately control the innate aura, the higher the quality of the spiritual root, the easier it is to naturally get the spiritual energy supplement, and it is easy to walk on the bridge, but the farther you go, the stronger the resistance, when the resistance and the power are equal, you can judge the best position of a person...... Although you can also overdraw your physical strength and continue to walk recklessly, if you consume too much physical strength on the golden bridge, you don't have to walk the road ahead. Although the principle is simple, the design is really ingenious, and it is best to use it to make a preliminary judgment of qualification. With the results of these two people, they should also be looked at differently by senior brothers. โ€

"Well, it's actually not me, it's Xiao Ling'er who is very optimistic about one of them...... It is said that the hellish quest chain was cracked. The qualifications are similar to what I saw before, between three or four grades, it's not bad. โ€

"So ......"

"It's okay, just follow the rules of Ethereal Peak, and it depends on his ability to go where he goes......"

As he spoke, a flaming sword talisman suddenly appeared, almost catching the dean's beard.

"Huh!? Who's this? It's okay to use the Fire Refining Academy Heavenly Fu to find me...... Sure enough, it's you! Do? Is it the end of the law?! Has the demons invaded!? What the? Overtime? You still have to work overtime to hold an immortal promotion conference, do you want to face!? Forget it, there is something to meet! Ouch, I'm so angry, the primordial spirit is going to collapse......"

It took a few breaths for the Fire Dance True Man to calm down his anger, but when he turned his head, the clear sky in his field of vision, and the clouds and mist surrounding the mountains were actually dispelled!

The young Fire Refining Academy cultivator had a shocked look on his face, and Cang Cheng was convinced: "The dean's cultivation is unparalleled, and a trace of residual strength can break through the cloud and mist array of the Ethereal Peak...... The junior and younger brothers are convinced. โ€

"It's only broken the first layer, not to mention the mere earth immortals, it's nothing in the Kyushu Continent, hehe, I went to the Ten Thousand Immortals League for a meeting ten years ago, and several elders are already cultivators in the Earth Immortal Stage."

"Hmph, demonstrations?"

"Excuse me, I've been sleeping from beginning to end anyway...... Forget it, don't talk too much, I'll go first, otherwise my sister will burn a few more heavenly runes, and I will go bankrupt...... Senior brother, I will leave the matter of the Immortal Ascension Conference to you, don't care what I say, everything will follow the rules. โ€

After the dean finished speaking, he walked away. Cang Cheng sighed, and through the cloud and mist array at the bottom of the Ethereal Peak, he saw Yuan Yufei and Yang Tianxin walking in the canyon.

Is it ...... to be favored by the dean and Xiao Ling'er at the same time? Although the dean said that everything came according to the rules, this kind of courtesy itself was already a violation of the rules.

"Focus on those two and hope they don't let me down...... Then, let's get ready for the logistics! โ€

The black-and-white monk nodded, and was about to leave......

"Oh yes, remember to tell your juniors and disciples to bring spirit stones and sword codex...... Alas, bring mahjong with you, this immortal ascension conference will probably take a long time, don't make it too boring......"

"Uh...... Master? โ€

"Hehe, remember to call your Uncle Zhou Ming, last time they won more than ten of our magic weapons through Mingfeng, this time I see that the master will help you win them back."

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Master? โ€

"This way...... It's long. โ€

In the long and narrow valley, Yuan Yufei and Yang Tianxin were both a little out of breath.

Yuan Yufei wiped the sweat on his head: "Alas, I can't feel the abundant help on the golden bridge...... The luggage seemed to be a little heavier. โ€

Yang Tianxin sighed: "Where did you get any help, Yuan Yufei, are you confused......?"

"yes, I'm tired, so you can carry the luggage."

"Uh......"

As he spoke, Yuan Yufei suddenly became excited, pointed to the front and said, "Look, the fog around is starting to thicken again, this is obviously a sign of entering the new map!" โ€

Yang Tianxin was as confused as ever: "What entered the new map?" โ€

Yuan Yufei explained: "You don't always think that the path to immortal ascension is a simple straight line, right? There will definitely be many levels designed in the middle to test a person's various qualities. If it's a root, knowledge, etc., it's just a golden bridge, and a test paper can test the depth, but how to test a person's temperament and fairy fate? Written test, answer sheet, personality test? If the Fire Refining Academy wants to fully test the newcomers, it must design a sufficiently complex scene on the path to immortal ascension, which may be a general scene, or an independent plane like a copy, and the fog around us is likely to be a buffer zone for switching maps. โ€

"Yuan Yufei, I don't understand what you're talking about at all......"

However, Yuan Yufei didn't seem to care whether Yang Tianxin understood or not, and explained to himself: "The Fire Refining Academy is a well-known ancient sect, the selection of disciples is very strict, and the number of people is sparse, generally speaking, the elders in the sect go down the mountain to find disciples on their own, and the sect is not suitable for mass production of immortal ascension conferences. That's why this time the mountain gate was opened to attract so many people. But the ancient school is the ancient school, even if the mass production ceremony will not be perfunctory, there will definitely be a process, and it will be more complicated than most people think......"

Hearing this, Yang Tianxin really couldn't help it: "Yuan Yufei, how do you know about the Fire Refining Academy?" โ€

Yuan Yufei actually only arrived in Huolian Town one day in advance, and the town had been staying in the house for a week, where did he get so much news? Is it really a Wenqu star who is born to know it?

"Of course, when you're doing the task chain...... Do you think I was in town that day just to run a mission? I listened carefully to the mission briefs at each mission point. Nowadays, many players are in a hurry for quick success and don't care about the text other than the mission objectives and mission rewards, but they don't know that the real value is precisely the mission brief! For example, when I finished the final link, the old man at the door would say that it was the first time that the Fire Refining Academy had held an immortal ascension conference in the past hundred years, and he had no experience, but because he had no experience, the energy invested would be very large, and even he, an old man who had been retired for many years, was hired back to guard the town...... The amount of information in this is staggering. But who can hear the average person? Those sons and sons want to inquire, but they don't even do the task, why should they give you the news? Because do you have money? In a town where five hundred taels of silver can't buy a turnip, money is a ....... โ€

Yang Tianxin didn't understand Yuan Yufei's emotion at all, but the disdain for others in his tone was vividly displayed, this kind of strong self-confidence had already been taught a lot when he was in Beicang City and Warcraft Forest, and he couldn't imagine that on the road to immortal ascension, his self-confidence still did not change!

Yuan Yufei is Yuan Yufei, Yang Tianxin said that he was not convinced.

According to Yuan Yufei, the fog on both sides of the valley is a buffer when switching maps, and behind the fog, there will be a new test, which is related to whether or not you can enter the inner gate of the Fire Refining Academy, Ethereal Peak.

Although Yang Tianxin didn't really understand the difference between Xiaoyao Peak and Ethereal Peak, Yuan Yufei seemed to attach great importance to it...... You can't go wrong with that.

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

The scope of the fog is much wider than expected.

thought it was just a short buffer, but when the two of them groped their way forward in the fog for an unknown amount of time, and still didn't find the way forward, even Yuan Yufei hesitated a little.

"Yuan Yufei, will we go the wrong way?"

"Nonsense, it's a road from start to finish, but you're telling me where we started wrong?"

"Uh......"

Yang Tianxin wiped a handful of sweat from her head and was speechless.

Yuan Yufei carried his luggage, although he had been insisting on exercising, he was only more tired at this time, so although his confidence was not reduced, he also slowed down and began to look around.

The effective sight distance in the mist was only less than three meters, and after that, he couldn't see it at all, Yuan Yufei only remembered that before he walked into the mist, he was in a valley road less than ten meters wide, and then he went straight ahead......

"Yang Tianxin, let's turn right."

"Huh? It's a cliff over there. โ€

"Not necessarily."

Yang Tian was happy for a moment, and followed Yuan Yufei to the right, but he thought that he would hit the mountain if he couldn't walk a few steps......

"Huh, what's the ...... It's weird, I remember that before entering this fog, the valleys on both sides were very long, why are they ...... now?"

"It's long gone in the valley, and the transformation of the map is done unconsciously...... I thought the fog was a buffer, but it seems that this is also part of the map. โ€

Yuan Yufei said, leaning down, his fingers twisting the dust under his feet.

"Yuan Yufei, is there anything wrong with this soil?"

"How do I know? It's not geology. Yuan Yufei said, patting the dust off his hands, "I thought I could find any clues in the soil, but it seems that it won't work." โ€

Yang Tianxin was suddenly a little worried: "Yuan Yufei, there won't be any danger, right?" โ€

Once Yuan Yufei lost his attention, Yang Tianxin felt that the fog around him had become hideous, as if he could devour himself at any time, this road to immortal ascension was not prepared for a person with such qualifications as Yang Tianxin in Beicang City. If it weren't for Yuan Yufei to take it, Yang Tianxin would have been unable to do it a long time ago.

"There's no danger, but there's no clue either."

"Huh!? Aren't we going to be trapped here? โ€

"Of course not, no clue itself is the biggest clue, I said, the road to immortality has to test a person's comprehensive quality, so luck, or immortal fate is also an important part. I have experienced when I was doing the task chain that people who cultivate immortals attach great importance to fate. โ€

"Uh, that means ......"

Yuan Yufei smiled: "In other words, there is actually no wrong way to speak of this road at all, and every direction symbolizes a person's chance...... In other words, as long as you look in one direction, you will get to a certain point, and a new map will appear. โ€

"Yuan Yufei, why are you so sure?"

"Do you still remember what the two blue and white said, every grass and tree is fate, isn't it just that you can walk whatever you want? What's more, if I were to design, I would probably do ...... When I was in Fire Refining Town before, I felt that the designers of the Fire Refining Academy's Immortal Ascension Conference were quite professional, and they should not disappoint. โ€

As he spoke, Yuan Yufei suddenly raised his head, his eyes seemed to pass through the fog, and he saw the top of the mountain standing on the clouds in the distance.

Fire Refining Academy, wait for me~

โ€”โ€”

At the same time, far above the clouds and mist in the valley, the ethereal peaks were already in chaos.

"Hell, why did the Elder Punish come here?"

"Hurry up and inform Master and Uncle Yu Fu that they have cleaned up the stall!"

"Black and white over there, you go to the Elder in charge to delay time!"

"Huh!? Senior brother, you are a true disciple, you should go about this matter! โ€

"Come less, the Elder Commander is stricter with the True Disciples! If I go, I will definitely be locked up and confined until the infancy! โ€

"Congratulations to Senior Brother on being about to turn into a Jindan old monster in the near future!"

"Congratulations, uncle! Lao Tzu is not even one step away from the Void Pill, and this confinement will not be able to come out for a hundred or two hundred years! Stop the torture elder! โ€

"Which of you is going to stop me?"

"Ahhhh

โ€”โ€”

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Senior Brother Cangcheng, Senior Brother Yu Fu, what are you doing? โ€

"Wow, ahhhh Who is it! Who is pretending to be Senior Brother Fang He! What a bold man, he dares to pretend to be the elder in charge, I will go to the Ming Dean to cure your crimes! If you have the ability, you can stay here and don't run! โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Senior Brother Cangcheng, have you made enough trouble? In addition, Senior Brother Fu, don't think about escaping with the Splitting Shadow Sword, you have already set up a star shadow screen before you come, and you can't escape. โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Senior Brother Fang He, the dean passed on your Xingchen Sword Codex, but he didn't let you use it to deal with your fellow sects! โ€

"As an elder in charge of punishment, if the criminal law is not used in the same sect, should it be used for the townspeople of Lingxi Town? You guys...... They are all dignified Heavenly Sword Hall elders, serving as the overseer of today's important sect's immortal ascension conference, and they are so derelict in their duties, and even blatantly violate the sect to gather people to gamble, you ...... According to the door rules, don't think about going out of the mountain in a hundred years. โ€

"Holy, won't you!? Which version of the door rule is this? โ€

At the Ethereal Peak, when the elders of the sect were arguing, suddenly a sword light came out of the clouds, turning into a black and white disciple and landing on the top platform.

The disciple's face was solemn, as if he couldn't see the mahjong table that had been knocked to the ground, and the red-faced academy elder who was noisy, and said in a cold voice: "Report to the elder, someone has already walked out of the cloud wave map. โ€

"What? So fast!? โ€
