Chapter 167: The Qingyun Trial

Two days later, in a secluded wasteland, Ren escaped 100 meters underground, dug a pit that could accommodate one person, set up a small spirit gathering array and a hidden spirit array, and began to clean up his loot.

The first thing to clean up was the storage bag of the monk who built the foundation.

Ren Xiaoyao found that in the storage bag of this foundation building monk, there were no large number of treasures that Ren Xiaoyao imagined, only more than 50,000 lower-grade spirit stones and more than a dozen medium-grade spirit stones, a small number of ordinary pills used by the foundation-building period monks who had little effect on the current Ren Xiaoyao, a berserker talisman and several ordinary other spirit runes, and then a cracked magic weapon spirit sword.

Counting it up, what really has an effect on Ren Xiaoyao is the wild soldier talisman and magic weapon, but it is not what Ren Xiaoyao can urge at this stage.

In this battle with the foundation building monks, Ren Xiaoyao spent several high-grade pills, used one iron armor talisman, four Shenxing talismans, and four impact talismans, damaged one overlord knife, and damaged hundreds of middle and lower grade spiritual weapons.

The gain is disproportionate to the loss.

"It's a loss!"

Ren Xiaoyao sighed inwardly and smiled bitterly.

It seems that you can't fight lightly!

However, Ren Xiaoyao was also very relieved that he had won this battle with the Zhuji monks.

Although he relies on the Black Mirror, he can let the free and the Black Mirror be indistinguishable from each other, and the Black Mirror is also his own combat power.

This shows that Ren Xiaoyao's current combat strength can compete with the monks in the early stage of foundation building.

However, if he could choose, Ren Xiaoyao would definitely not want to fight with the foundation building monk again, the danger was too great, and the cost was too great.

The fighting method between monks is compared to strength, among low-level monks, the most important embodiment of strength is net worth, if you carry out too many battles that consume your net worth, it is equivalent to consuming your net worth in vain and reducing your strength.

Putting away the things of the Tsukiji monk, Ren Xiaoyao took out a few bulging storage bags from his arms, and began to slowly clean them up again.

A few days ago, Ren Yao slaughtered all sides and got hundreds of storage bags.

But it was too inconvenient to put hundreds of storage bags on his body, so he gathered the contents of the storage bags that had not yet been cleaned up into a few storage bags and put them in his arms.

Those empty storage bags, because they couldn't be stored in other storage bags, and it was inconvenient to carry them all on his body, Ren Xiaoyao threw away the other empty storage bags after choosing more than a dozen storage bags of good quality.

In these storage bags for casual cultivation, there are large and small values, and in the storage bags with large value, there are tens of thousands of lower-grade spirit stones, hundreds of various alchemy materials, spiritual weapons, **, mineral materials, etc., all of which have good harvests;

In this battle of escape, he couldn't remember exactly how many monks Ren Xiaoyao had killed and how many storage bags he had gotten. However, obviously, Ren Xiaoyao's harvest is huge, there are more than one million lower grade spirit stones alone, plus some other materials, the total value is close to three million lower grade spirit stones, if you add all the things that Ren Xiaoyao had before, the total net worth of Ren Xiaoyao is close to five million lower grade spirit stones.

Of course, these so-called net worth, do not include the white snow ring on Ren Xiaoyao's body, the Eight Veins Flowing Spirit and the Transformation of Mortal into Immortals**, etc., nor do they include the refining materials that only some Yuanying cultivators of the ancient cultivation can use, and even that strange stone is not comparable.

The White Snow Ring, the Eight Veins Flowing Spirit, the Transformation of Mortals into Immortals and the strange stone are the most valuable treasures on Ren Xiaoyao's body, they all have the value of the sky, Ren Xiaoyao doesn't know their specific value at all, so they won't be counted in his net worth.

Five million is a number that makes Ren Xiaoyao dizzy, Ren Xiaoyao almost laughed out loud, and as a last resort, Ren Xiaoyao hurriedly meditated steadily, but there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Now that Ren Xiaoyao is far away from the Demon Beast Forest, the round-up has been lifted, and the danger has been greatly reduced. As long as you don't get recognized by others, you won't have much trouble under normal circumstances.

The next path is different from the past, and it's time for a change.

Ren Xiaoyao took off the purple gold mask, revealing his true face, two strands of white hair fluttering in the wind between his temples, and a slight crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, in addition, his knife-like face was matched with deep eyes.

Ren Xiaoyao was at the edge of the demon beast forest before, and he had been wearing a purple gold mask, and the only people who really knew his true face were Mu Lingqing and Li Xiaohong.

After killing Bai Jun, there will definitely be some other troubles in the future, so you must change your outfit, and giving up the purple gold mask to get back to your true face is the most important means of changing your identity.

After that, Ren Xiaoyao put away the blood cloud cloak and replaced it with another ordinary black mid-grade spiritual weapon, a black cloak.

This black cloak doesn't have much effect, but it can isolate the divine thoughts, even the divine thoughts of the foundation building monks, and they can't penetrate it, and there is another effect that it can prevent the spread of the breath in the body.

The blood cloud cloak is too eye-catching, and Ren Xiaoyao has already bought such a black cloak just in case, and now it comes in handy. Black Mirror is a fifth-level royal demon beast, and it is integrated with Ren Xiaoyao in a strange way, and in order to avoid attracting attention, Black Mirror must be hidden.

After the things were cleaned up, Ren Yao stabilized his feelings, changed back to his normal heart, and quietly cultivated at this 100 meters underground.

This cultivation is two years.

Two years later, Ren Xiaoyao came to Sunset City.

At this time, Sunset City, all kinds of low-level monks gathered, and it was very lively.

Sunset City is located at the junction of China, Ningbo and Qingdao, and is named because of the beautiful sunset scenery.

At the same time, Sunset City is also a very large-scale immortal cultivation city, and the vast majority of the people gathered in the city are immortal cultivators from all walks of life, but only a very small number of mortals live here.

In the eyes of the low-ranking monks, Sunset City is a place of hope and a place of fame. Because the Qingyun Trial, which takes place every thirty years, starts here, and the elite challenge between Qi refining cultivators every ten years is also held here.

The Qingyun Trial was of great significance to Qi Refining Cultivators.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Shang Dynasty, many independent spaces were opened up in various parts of the world for planting elixirs.

Later, the world changed drastically, Zhongzhou was transformed into a place of darkness in one day, and the Lishang Dynasty, whose main forces were concentrated in Zhongzhou, was destroyed and the dynasty collapsed.

After the fall of the Shang Dynasty, many dynastic legacies were divided up by various forces, and many relics disappeared.

Five hundred years ago, someone found a free and independent space with a large number of elixirs planted in it, which was later called Qingyun Space.

Qingyun Space was originally a low-level medicine garden during the Shang Dynasty, and it was a low-level space opened up during the Shang Dynasty, which disappeared after the Zhongzhou Rebellion.

After the appearance of the Qingyun Space, the monks found that the high-level monks could use a specific magic weapon to pull this space out of the free space and temporarily fix it in a specific time and space.

No, this medicine garden is used to grow low-level elixirs, when the Shang Dynasty opened up this space, the independent law of establishing such a space is that when the monks of the foundation building period and above enter this space, they will be eaten by the inexplicable power of this space, and those who are strict will even be destroyed.

In other words, this independent Qingyun space can only enter the Qi Refining Stage cultivators.

It has been almost a million years since the Shang Dynasty was destroyed, and even a weed in the Qingyun Space has become a refinement, not to mention those low-level spirit grasses.

A low-level spirit grass, if it grows for millions of years, if it does not die, it will inevitably become an anti-heaven elixir. Although the spirit grass also has a lifespan, no one has discovered it in this space for a million years, and there must be a large number of 10,000-year elixirs produced in it, and its value is incalculable.

Therefore, as soon as Qingyun Space was discovered, it immediately set off a frenzy of grabbing the elixir, and all sects and factions were vying for it, no one was willing to give up, and no sect could swallow it alone.

In the end, all the sects reached an agreement to use this space as a place of trial for the sect's qi refining cultivators, and each sect sent qi refining disciples to enter this space, each relying on their ability and chance, and how much elixir they can collect depends on their own creation.

Millions of years ago, the aura of heaven and earth was acceptable, and many elixirs were retained, but today, a hundred years later, the aura of heaven and earth has withered, and many elixirs have become extinct.

During the period of the Lishang Dynasty, Zhuji Dan was just a very ordinary pill to assist in building the foundation, but now, the three necessary materials for refining the Zhuji Dan, Shengyuan Grass, Purple Cloud Flower and Kongming Fruit are difficult to find in the outside world.

Because of the changes in the aura of heaven and earth, the three elixirs necessary for refining Zhuji Dan were no longer suitable for survival, and they gradually became extinct. Even if some of the big sects can grow some, they can only grow in small amounts.

This newly emerged Qingyun space originated from the Lishang Dynasty period millions of years ago, and there were a large number of these three elixirs left in it.

Because of this, Qingyun Space has become the main source of materials for Tsukidan.

For the Immortal Cultivators and high-level monks, this space is a treasure place to obtain the anti-heaven elixir, and for the low-level monks, it is the hope for them to build a foundation.

After five hundred years of uninterrupted picking, most of the 10,000-year-old elixirs in this space have been picked, and in order to continue the growth of the elixir in this space, the various sects have agreed that this space will be opened every thirty years.

In fact, this space can only be opened once every thirty years, because this space is free, and it is only possible to capture traces of this space at a certain time and place every thirty years. Before each opening, there is a competition of elite Qi Refining Stage disciples of each major sect, and the results of the competition are used to determine how many Qi Refining Stage disciples each major sect can send into it.

This space is opened once every thirty years, also known as the Qingyun Trial, and for the Qi Refining Period cultivators, it has the meaning of stepping into the clouds.

This has multiple meanings. If you find the refining materials of Tsukidan, you can exchange or refine Tsukidan to build a foundation. If you have the opportunity to find a thousand-year-old elixir or a thousand-year-old elixir and give it to the elders of the Yuan Infant Stage, the benefits will be endless.

This last benefit, whoever survives after participating in the Qingyun Trial will be valued by the corresponding sect and cultivated as the elite of the sect.

Qingyun trial, nine deaths and one life.

Although the space of Qingyun Trial was used as an elixir garden when it left the Shang Dynasty, when it appeared now, there were a large number of demon beasts living in it, and their strength ranged from level one to level seven.

The specific laws of space have less power to suppress demon beasts than humans, and the strongest of the demon beasts in this space is a seventh-level demon beast, and its strength is close to that of a monk in the late stage of foundation building.

However, because of the suppression of this space, the demon beasts in the space cannot condense the demon pill, at least until now, no demon beasts have been found to condense the demon pill. Of course, the sixth-level demon beasts and seventh-level demon beasts were only a very small part of the existence in this space, and the demon beasts that really threatened the trialists were a large number of fourth-level demon beasts and fifth-level demon beasts.

The competition between Qi Refining Stage monks, known as the Elite Challenge, is held in Sunset City every ten years, and each time it is extremely tragic.

Most of the participants in the Elite Challenge are elite disciples of the Qi Refining Period of the various sects in the Southern Heaven Alliance, and the competition ranking of the disciples of the Qi Refining Period is used to determine the strength ranking between the various sects, solve the distribution of some important immortal cultivation resources, and avoid unnecessary battles between the various sects, which is the most important purpose of the Elite Challenge held every ten years.

Another purpose of this Elite Challenge is to determine who can enter the Qingyun Space through the tournament rankings.

Originally, the Qingyun Space was jointly controlled by various major sects, and it had nothing to do with loose cultivation, and the first few Qingyun trials had nothing to do with loose cultivation.

However, there are also many powerful cultivators who do not belong to the sect, like some families, some immortal cultivator chambers of commerce, there are some powerful monks in them, and they maintain a close relationship with the sect of cultivating immortals.

What's more, among the immortal cultivators in the world, the largest number is casual cultivation, if you don't give these casual cultivators a chance to build a foundation, I'm afraid it will cause chaos in the world.

Therefore, in the later days, the Qingyun Trial also allowed casual cultivation to participate.

First of all, if you want to participate in the Elite Challenge, you can only sign up through the three top three chambers of commerce in Qingning.

After registering with these three chambers of commerce, the three chambers of commerce will qualify for the qualifiers, and the three chambers will sign up for the elite challenge for these registered casual practitioners.

Loose cultivators who are eligible to participate in the Elite Challenge, if they can compete for the top 100 in the Elite Challenge, can get a Qingyun Order, and each Qingyun Order can bring ten monks into the Qingyun Space.

In the Qingyun Trial, the number of Qi Refining Stage cultivators entering each time was exactly one thousand.

Whichever chamber of commerce participates in the Elite Challenge, it is equivalent to establishing an employment relationship with this chamber of commerce. If you win the Qingyun Order for the Chamber of Commerce, you will definitely get a lot of benefits.

The powerful Qi Refining and Dispersion Cultivator was also hired by the Chamber of Commerce, and if the elixir needed by the Chamber of Commerce was picked from the Qingyun Space, the Chamber of Commerce was eligible to purchase it at a reasonable price.

Regarding the Qingyun Trial and the Elite Challenge, Ren Xiaoyao had collected relevant information many years ago and had been paying attention to it.

Although Ren Xiaoyao now has a net worth of millions of spirit stones, the Zhuji Dan is basically out of stock in the market, and only a very small amount is still stored in some immortal cultivation sects, and Ren Xiaoyao can't get it. Therefore, the Qingyun Trial is the only way for Ren Xiaoyao to get Tsukidan.

On the other hand, there are too many elixirs in the Qingyun Space, and if Ren Xiaoyao wants to be more smooth in the cultivation process in the future, he must enter the Qingyun Space to fight.

After leaving the edge of the Demon Beast Forest, Ren Xiaoyao went a hundred meters deep underground, retreated for two years, and consumed the top-grade Gathering Spirit Pill on his body, and finally reached the peak of the eleventh order of qi refining.

After that, Ren Xiaoyao flew carefully all the way, avoiding the other monks, and after more than a year of travel, he came to Sunset City.

As soon as he entered Sunset City, Ren Xiaoyao found out that the Qingyun Trial and Elite Challenge would be held in about three years.
