Although he knew that the people of Chiyun Dao and Wang He must be discussing how to design themselves, Ma Yilong was helpless. All he could do, in addition to being cautious, was to cultivate desperately to improve his self-preservation.

Three days later, at night, Ma Yilong was cultivating in the cave when he suddenly opened his eyes. Under his divine thoughts, he found that several figures appeared more than a hundred feet outside the cave door, but a few figures just gathered in one place and whispered a few words, and then immediately separated and scattered.

Ma Yilong was suddenly surprised, those figures all had black cloths covering their faces, and they couldn't see their faces clearly. However, Ma Yilong did not get up and walked out of the cave door, but just sat quietly and observed everything outside the cave.

After a cup of tea, a figure appeared in Ma Yilong's sight, and quickly came to Ma Yilong's cave door. Ma Yilong was surprised and delighted, with a look of surprise on his face, opened the door of the cave, and let the visitor into the cave.

Ma Yilong never dreamed that the person who came would be the friend Xiang Yang who had made friends on the black market.

On the same day, Ma Yilong challenged at the level of the black market, defeated Xiang Yang, and later ransomed him, and the two became friends. However, the two have not met since. Now seeing Xiangyang again, Ma Yilong is very happy.

However, when he saw the cultivation of the twelfth layer of Xiangyang Qi refining, Ma Yilong sighed in his heart. At that time, he and Xiang Yang were both cultivators of the fourth layer of qi refining, and now he is still refining qi at the eleventh layer, and Xiang Yang is above him.

Since the last time he separated, Ma Yilong has been cultivating desperately, and with the support of powerful spirit stones, he has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he has made rapid progress. But he didn't expect that Xiangyang's progress would be faster. Ma Yilong himself knows that no matter how good Xiang Yang's qualifications are, it is impossible to have such an improvement speed under normal circumstances, and it must be his master who plays a major role. At this moment, Ma Yilong finally realized the gap!

"Brother Xiangyang, how did you come to the Purple Cloud Sect?"

"Brother Ma doesn't have to be surprised, the martial arts competition of the five major factions is coming, and I am here to send the list of participants!"

"What list?"

"Brother Ma is so confused! There are so many disciples in the five major sects, it is impossible for all of them to participate in the competition. According to the previous practice, the other four major sects had to select the disciples who participated in the competition in advance, send the list to the Purple Cloud Sect in advance, and wait until the day to temporarily draw lots to decide the opponent. Originally, I couldn't have taken my turn to do this errand, but I always wanted to come and see Brother Ma, so I took the initiative to get it from Master!"

"I see! But I'm really confused, what is the purpose of the five major factions holding such a competition?"

"The area of the Ziyun Mountain Range is vast, the spiritual energy is abundant, and there are many spiritual stone mines. Every ten years, the five major factions have to redivide the management area and the distribution of spiritual mines. However, the five major factions have always had a good relationship and work together with the outside world. In order not to hurt each other's feelings, their allocation of resources and the decision on the initiative were not determined by the level of their predecessors in the Yuan Infant Stage, but by this competition! The points of the Fighting Law Conference were used to determine the spiritual mines and geographical division of the Ziyun Mountain Range, and the points of the Martial Arts Conference were used to determine the command of the trip to the Holy Land: as for the selection of relatives, it was purely for the purpose of contacting feelings!"

Hearing Xiang Yang's explanation, Ma Yilong nodded with a smile, he vaguely saw a glimmer of hope. However, Ma Yilong immediately became confused again, and said in surprise: "But, what happened to the scene before you appeared just now?"

Xiang Yang smiled bitterly: "I have already met Fang Ming during the day, I know everything about Brother Ma! Just now Fang Ming deliberately took some of the outer hall disciples to perform that scene, in order to lure away the people who are monitoring here! Don't say anything superfluous, what Brother Ma needs me to do is just say it!"

Ma Yilong pondered for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "I really can't think of anything else I can do besides cultivating hard to improve myself! If I really need your help that day, I will definitely speak!"

Xiang Yang patted the storage bag with one hand, and one treasure after another flew out and landed on the table! Xiang Yang pointed with his hand and said with a smile: "I have already regarded you as my brother in life and death, don't say anything, you choose!"

Ma Yilong nodded towards Xiang Yang gratefully, and then focused his gaze on the table. There was an object that instantly entered Ma Yilong's eyes, this thing was the same as an ordinary mid-level spirit stone, whether it was the shape and size, or the fluctuation of spiritual power, there was no difference in the slightest!

However, this item can be stored in Xiang Yang's storage bag, and it will definitely not be a mid-level spirit stone. After Ma Yilong looked at it a few times, he gently picked it up and held it in his hand, and looked at Xiang Yang with a puzzled look.

"Brother Ma don't have to be surprised! This thing is called the Sound Stone, which is refined with a medium-grade spirit stone, and the purpose is naturally to hide people's ears and eyes, and its function is only one, that is, it can record the sound within a hundred zhang and restore it after casting the spell. Of course, if it can be refined with high-grade spirit stones or top-grade spirit stones, the range of inclusion will also be increased a lot! However, this thing needs to be refined with a special charm, and the probability of success is extremely low. In the decades that my master has been refining, he has only refined three or five pieces! If Brother Ma is useful, he can take it!"

Ma Yilong smiled and nodded, and handed the radio spirit stone to Xiang Yang, and after Xiang Yang showed him how to use it on the spot, he handed it back to Ma Yilong's hand. Then Ma Yilong glanced at the other treasures and shook his head gently.

Xiang Yang saw that Ma Yilong had no intention of choosing again, so he didn't say much, took the treasure, glanced at the situation outside the cave, and left with a smile! Ma Yilong watched Xiang Yang leave, and never said a word of thanks.

Just like after he helped Xiang Yang that day, Xiang Yang did not thank him, because they had already identified the other party as brothers who lived and died, and there was no need to say anything, and the words of thanks could only shorten the distance between them.

Ma Yilong looked at the radio spirit stone in his hand, and a bold plan suddenly rose in his heart. When Ma Yilong told Qingyun Dao and Huo Wuyuan about this idea, the two immediately nodded. Anyway, Ma Yilong's situation is already like this, even if it doesn't succeed, it can't have worse consequences.

When Zheng Jiang came to see Ma Yilong the next day, Ma Yilong first inquired about the recent situation, then took out the radio spirit stone and a letter, handed it to Zheng Jiang, and told Zheng Jiang his thoughts with a smile.

"What, do you want me to put this thing in the main hall, and you want me to send a letter to Master Baiyun again? No, no, this is absolutely not good!" Zheng Jiang was so surprised that he almost jumped up in surprise and waved his hand again and again.

"Senior Brother Zheng, do you still have a choice?" Ma Yilong looked at Zheng Jiang with a smile, although he didn't say anything, but the threat had already been revealed!

"Senior Brother Ma, I have been doing my best for you, and I have not hidden the news from you in the slightest, can't you harm me?" Zheng Jiang frowned and looked at Ma Yilong with a pitiful look.

"Senior Brother Zheng is too worried! I am reluctant to harm you, having you can save me a lot of trouble! You take a good look at the things in your hand, there is no difference between them and an ordinary mid-level spirit stone, and it will not attract the attention of others at all. As long as you find a chance for the head of Chiyun to leave the main hall, you can do it. There is a certain place to store spirit stones in his main hall, and if you mix this thing in it, who can know!" Ma Yilong said lightly.

"It's okay to do this, the head of the sect will go to see Baiyun Master Ancestor once every ten days, and I will have a chance to do it today! But how can I give this letter to Baiyun Master Ancestor?" Zheng Jiang said with a puzzled face.

Ma Yilong smiled and waved his hand, walked up to Zheng Jiang, and whispered in his ear. After listening to Ma Yilong's words, Zheng Jiang sighed lightly and nodded with a wry smile.
