More than a hundred years ago, the Purple Cloud Sect was already the largest cultivation sect on the Qingyan Continent. At that time, the Baiyun Dao people were still in the middle of the Yuan Infant, and the Qingyun Dao people and the Chiyun Dao people were both in the early Yuan Infant period. As the head of the Purple Cloud Sect, the Baiyun Dao people decided to give up the position of head in order to break through the late Yuan Infant Ascend Spirit Realm as soon as possible.

However, Qingyun Dao and Chiyun Dao people have the same cultivation, who should take over the position of the head of the house, which makes Baiyun Dao people very difficult. Because, for Chiyun and Qingyun, who have always gone hand in hand in cultivation, who will be the head of the house has a very important relationship.

On the Qingyan Continent, the most lacking and rarest thing is the Ascension Order. Only those who possess this order can open the door to the interface they want and have the opportunity to ascend to the spirit realm. Otherwise, even if you are already in the late infancy, it will be useless.

The level of a practitioner's cultivation determines the difference in his or her own longevity. For ordinary mortals, most of them are under the age of 120, monks in the Qi refining stage usually have a longevity of 120 to 180 years old, monks in the foundation building period usually have a longevity of 180 to 260 years old, monks in the Yudan stage generally have a longevity between 260 and 500 years old, monks in the Yuan infant stage have a longevity of 500 to 1,000 years old, and monks in the transformation stage have a longevity of 1,000 to 2,000 years old.

In fact, the longevity of each stage of cultivation can be extended accordingly under the action of some special elixirs, but the extension is also limited. On the Qingyan Continent, there are not a few people who have reached the late Yuan Infant stage, but there are not a few people who have died because they have not been able to get the Ascension Order and finally exhausted their longevity.

Of course, there have also been attempts to find a spatial breakthrough point to enter the spirit realm. But very few people can achieve it, not to mention the difficulty of finding a breakthrough, even if you forcibly open the interface, it is a road to death.

There are a lot of dangers in the spatial interface, and abnormal channels are opened, and these dangers are difficult for you to avoid. Even if you are lucky enough to make a breakthrough, you don't know where it leads. Because there is not only one spiritual realm in the upper space. The spirit world itself is divided into the spirit fairy world, the spirit and demon world, and the spirit and ghost world, and the three spaces are connected in a triangle, separated by only one interface door from each other. Once you enter the spirit and demon realm or the spirit and ghost realm, the consequences are unimaginable.

It's not the same if you have an Ascension Order.

The Ascension Order is like a unique key that will open a door to the interface when you activate it. If you inject immortal energy, you can open the interface door to the immortal realm. On the contrary, if you inject demonic energy, you will open the door to the interface of the spirit and demon realm.

As for the cultivation in the late Yuan Infant period, it is because only when the cultivation reaches this realm can the Ascension Order be stimulated, and the spatial pressure when crossing the interface can be withstood and the physical body is immortal.

It can be seen that this Ascension Order is an indispensable thing in the Ascension Spirit Realm.

However, according to common sense, it should not be too rare, although the Ascension Order only appears in the Holy Land, but after all, one is born every ten years. No one in the Qingyan Continent has been flying for nearly a thousand years, so if you calculate it, you have to save at least a hundred Ascension Orders.

This is far from the case!

It is true that the Holy Land will give birth to an Ascension Order every ten years, but not every Ascension Order can be taken out of the Holy Land.

On the one hand, the place where the Ascension Order appeared was in a cave infested with fierce beasts, and it was also a spell failure area. Relying solely on martial arts, few people can kill so many fierce beasts and successfully obtain this thing.

On the other hand, when someone gets the Ascension Order and walks out of the third ban, they will encounter many strong enemies. In a critical moment, when they see that the Ascension Order that they have sacrificed their lives to gain is about to be taken away, many people will choose to destroy this thing first.

Because of this, more than a thousand years have passed, and the Ascension Orders stored in the entire Qingyan Continent together are only about a dozen. Sadly, the Purple Cloud Sect, a dignified immortal cultivator, has not even had a single ascension order so far.

The cultivation of Qingyun Dao and Chiyun Dao is comparable, but who is in charge, the difference is here. Because, under the same situation of cultivation, the head of the sect will definitely have the qualification to get the ascension order first. Just imagine, the first Ascension Order that the Purple Cloud Sect will get in the future will naturally be handed over to the person who cultivates to the highest Baiyun Daoist, and the second one will be handed over to the person who has cultivated the same but is the head of the sect.

In this way, losing the position of head means that the person who is in charge will have to wait for more. And I don't know how many years it will be, and I don't know if my lifespan is so long, and it is very likely that I will regret it for the rest of my life.

In this situation, the Baiyun Dao people were also quite embarrassed.

After some thought, he made a decision. With a limit of thirty years, whoever breaks through the middle stage of the Yuan Infant first between Qingyun Dao and Chiyun Dao will be the head of the house, and if the time is up, the two of them will not break through, and the strong will be determined through the fighting method.

This decision is actually beneficial to the people of Qingyun Dao. Because, although the cultivation of the two is comparable, the Qingyun Dao people have a slight upper hand in several battles.

However, at that time, the Qingyun Dao people were in the bottleneck of cultivation, and it was difficult to make a breakthrough in thirty years. In the face of this decision of the Baiyun Dao people, he could not guarantee that the Red Cloud Dao people would not make a breakthrough in thirty years. Therefore, the Qingyun Dao people decided to venture to the Northern Cold Land to find an elixir to break through the bottleneck.

In fact, the reason why he wanted to go to the Northern Cold Land was because the Qingyun Dao people were Ice Spirit Roots, and the elixir he needed to break through the bottleneck was only available in the Northern Cold Land. However, it is close to the Northern Demon Gate, and it is also more dangerous. Out of prudence, the Qingyun Dao people only told the Baiyun Dao people and the Chiyun Dao people about this matter.

What Qingyun Dao people didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived in the Northern Cold Land, he was ambushed and besieged by the combined efforts of several Yuan Infant Stage monks of the Demon Gate. Fortunately, he met Huo Wuyuan on the way to the Northern Cold Land, and with his help, he escaped from the siege and used secret techniques to protect the Yuan Shen.

However, Qingyun Dao people knew very well in their hearts that he had encountered an ambush as soon as he arrived there, indicating that someone must have betrayed him. With the cultivation and identity of the Baiyun Dao people, there was no need for him to do this at all, this person must be in the Chiyun Dao people.

In an instant, the Qingyun Dao people had the idea of revenge.

Originally, there was only Huo Wuyuan's hatred, but now that the Qingyun Dao people have fallen, they can be regarded as connected by the same fate. Qingyun Dao people have been looking for opportunities outside with Huo Wuyuan, and the two of them are ready to do both. If you meet a monk in the foundation building period or the Dan stage with good qualifications, the Qingyun Dao people will take him away, and if you meet a monk in the Yuan infant stage, you will cooperate with him.

However, the two have never encountered a suitable opportunity after searching for a hundred years. The monks they met were either too poor in qualifications or too low in cultivation. They had met a few of them, but none of them would agree to this.

By chance, the two of them found the Three-Element Divine Sword in the cemetery, and with their cultivation, they could see at a glance that this thing was not ordinary, so they stayed there and hid in the storage bracelet to practice. It's just that they didn't expect that those ghosts deliberately gave the divine sword and bracelet to Ma Yilong who was passing by because they were afraid of Huo Wuyuan.

In fact, they didn't fancy Ma Yilong's qualifications at all, and the two of them were just reluctant to follow the Three-Element Transformation Divine Sword, so they chose to follow Ma Yilong. Ma Yilong was able to come to the Purple Cloud Sect, which made them overjoyed. In this way, you can track down the truth about the murder of Qingyun Dao people and look for opportunities.

However, the people of Qingyun Dao have never dared to let others know their existence. Needless to say, the people of Chiyun Dao were the object of his suspicions. And his two disciples, Xuechen Daogu and Zhang Wancheng, could not determine whether they knew about his murder and whether they were involved in this matter.

For Qingyun Dao people, if the two of them are involved, they naturally can't believe it. On the contrary, if the two were not involved, he did not want the two to be involved. After all, the cultivation of the Chiyun Dao people is there, and the two of them don't have the ability to compete with the Chiyun Dao people at all, and it is meaningless to know it, and it is very likely to cause death.

Therefore, Qingyun Dao and Huo Wuyuan have always been hidden in Ma Yilong's storage bracelet. Their original intention was to find a suitable person first, and then turn around and take away the divine sword and healing spirit bead in Ma Yilong's hand after successfully seizing it.

In the past period of time, Huo Wuyuan also recommended several candidates to Qingyun Dao people, Wu Ying, Jiang Shuyuan, Wang Xian, and Liu Lin were among them. However, none of these people could satisfy the Qingyun Dao people.

An outer disciple like Wu Ying, like Ma Yilong, is not qualified enough, so he can't make the Qingyun Dao people look down on him at all. And Wang Xian, not to mention his character, he was originally a disciple of Qingyun Dao. I took away my own apprentice grandson, which is a bit unreasonable.

Jiang Shuyuan and Liu Lin have been secretly in frequent contact with the people of Chiyun Dao, and this has not been concealed from the people of Qingyun Dao and Huo Wuyuan. And it was this that made the Qingyun Dao people lose interest in the two. With the current cultivation of the Chiyun Dao people, for a long time, the Qingyun Dao people will not be able to take revenge at all. If you really succeed in seizing one of the two, you must directly contact the people of Chiyun Dao.

It's easy to expose yourself like this, not to mention, the enemy opposite who was originally on an equal footing with you, and you have to be wronged and begged to call each other a master, Qingyun Dao people really can't do it.

In such a situation, after waiting for so long, they didn't meet a suitable candidate, and finally Qingyun Dao people refocused their attention on Ma Yilong. Ma Yilong's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and the people of Qingyun Dao have seen it in their eyes, and Ma Yilong also has a divine sword and a healing spirit bead. Compared with each other, Ma Yilong is the best candidate. Regarding Ma Yilong's little trouble provoking Wang Xian, Qingyun Dao and Huo Wuyuan didn't pay attention to it at all.

In this way, after Ma Yilong fainted earlier, the people of Qingyun Dao finally made a decision and tried to take him away. It's just that the people of Qingyun Dao didn't expect that Ma Yilong, who had cultivated the intrusion of divine thoughts, he couldn't deal with it, and he fell for his tricks.

Qingyun Dao and Huo Wuyuan talked about the experience of the two, Ma Yilong nodded, frowned and pondered.
