At this time, everyone was passing through a river, which was not too deep, and at a glance it was already at the bottom, the water in the river was clear, and the grass on both sides of the river was probably full of green leaves because of the sufficient water.

When Lian Tuo looked down, he could vaguely see that many fish were swimming down the water, and some of them even swam to the surface of the river from time to time, sucking in the morning air and then quickly swimming down to the bottom of the river.

Across the river, another village in front of me is already far away, the sun is slowly rising in the sky, many people in the village seem to have woken up, and the smoke is rising from the roofs of many houses, twisting and turning from time to time with the breeze blowing, slowly dispersing in this world.

The crowd repeated this constant search, and after another half a day, they finally completely surveyed the more than ten villages behind it at noon on this day, counting yesterday, the five of them searched a full forty-three villages.

Among the forty-three villages, they have measured that there are nearly 100 people with spiritual qualities, but most of them have mediocre qualifications, a total of seventy-three people, and only fourteen people have reached the middle spiritual quality, and as for those with high-grade spiritual qualities, there is only one person in the entire forty-three villages.

"I've finally completed the task, after I go back, I must retreat and cultivate, and strive to step into the inner door as soon as possible!" "Senior Sister Yan Xuan, let's go back as soon as possible, it is estimated that the other teams have also completed the task on the way back." ”

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief as they looked at the seemingly endless mountain range behind the village at the very end, and two of the men whispered to Yan Xuan.

"Hmm,"

Yan Xuan tapped his chin when he heard this, and took the two young men with spiritual resources in this village with the others, and walked back and forth with flying swords.

In the central area of the village area, the other three teams had already returned one after another, and Lian Tuo, Yan Xuan and others had finally returned to this place after a two-hour flight.

In that clearing, a group of young girls stood at this time, densely packed with hundreds of people.

"More than 400 people, okay! After I go back, as the elder of the sect, I will allow a few of you to go to the treasure pavilion of the sect and choose one of the exercises to cultivate. ”

Looking at this group of young men and women who were all with spiritual cultivation, Elder Lin was overjoyed in his heart, and laughed loudly at the disciples of the Lingyi Sect.

"Thank you, Elder!" The disciples of the Lingyi Sect present, except for Yan Xuan and the three men who had been assigned to lead the team, the others couldn't help but show surprise when they heard this.

"It's okay, this is a reward for you, since we have completed the task, then we will leave for the sect immediately!"

Elder Lin said as he pinched his hands and pointed at the giant scorpion, and suddenly saw the giant scorpion's body move, and the scroll turned back, and the eerie-looking tail fell straight to the ground, directly into the ground and soil.

Immediately after, he pointed again, and a pale white light flew out of the sack in his waist and went straight to the tail of the giant scorpion.

The white light did not disappear at this point, but after a few flickers, it gradually transformed into a huge cloud compass on the back of the giant scorpion that was large enough to hold thousands of people.

The more than 400 teenagers and girls from various villages were stunned by the scene in front of them.

"Everyone go up the stairs, we are ready to set off, return to the sect!"

The cloud and mist compass was completely formed, and Elder Lin's sonorous and powerful voice came out again.

Under the orderly guidance of the disciples of the Lingyi Sect, nearly half an hour later, more than 400 people from various villages completely stepped on the back of the giant scorpion along the stairs formed by the clouds and mist.

When the last disciple of the Lingyi Sect also stepped on, the white light finally flashed and merged into the compass under everyone, forming a layer of light curtain that directly enveloped the edge and top of the entire compass.

The light curtain formed, Elder Lin raised his hand and pointed again, and the giant scorpion suddenly left the ground and sped towards the Lingyi Sect at an extremely fast speed.

This time, there was a light curtain to isolate the wind blowing, and everyone in the Lingyi Sect no longer used the spiritual energy to drive the sword in front of them to resist, but scattered around the edge of the compass, or quietly closed their eyes and meditated, or looked at the scenery along the way.

Yan Xuan and Lian Tuo stood at the left edge of the compass, both of them silent, looking at the village area that gradually disappeared from their eyes, each not knowing what they were thinking.

After a few moments, the faint sound of several people from the same village whispering to each other gradually came from the compass.

"Senior Brother Lian...."

Suddenly, Yan Xuan's deep voice broke the silence between the two.

"What's wrong?" Turning his head, Lian Tuo couldn't help but look at her suspiciously.

"When I return to the sect this time, I may soon have to follow my master to the Mingyue Sect to participate in the alchemy competition and learn the art of alchemy, perhaps, it will be a long time before I come back, at least a year, at most a few years..."

Looking at the white clouds that were swept by in the sky, Yan Xuan was silent for a while before speaking slowly.

"That.. Remember to tell me when you leave, I'll see you off...."

With her eyes looking at the white clouds, many words flashed in Lian Tuo's heart, and he said this sentence in a daze.

"Senior sister is not in the sect, you have to cultivate hard, I hope I can see that you can also fly with the same sword as me when I come back. “

His eyes were on Lian Tuo for a while, and Yan Xuan's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly again as usual. .....

Half an hour later, where the Lingyi Sect was located, the giant peak that the great array had transformed into slowly opened, and the giant scorpion directly penetrated into it.

Entering the sect, the giant scorpion flew straight to the huge square where everyone set off, and landed in a clearing not far from the square.

There were many people standing in the square at the moment, and among them, Yan Kong was impressive.

Next to him, there were two people who were as well-dressed as him, with their heads raised and their eyebrows raised, looking old and decayed.

The three of them stood under the huge statue in the center of the square, and in front of them were dozens of Lingyi Sect disciples uniformly dressed in light blue robes.

The giant scorpion landed, and the three of Yan Kong and the disciples of the Lingyi Sect all looked at the people above them.

Yan Kong and the three of them were smiling, and among the more than 20 disciples of the Lingyi Sect, some showed expressions of relief, while others were expressionless, and their expressions were different.

"Okay! Since my Lingyi Sect came to this marginal area, it has recruited so many disciples to enter my sect for the first time, although it will be less than half after the trial, it doesn't matter!

Among the three, the old man standing in the middle looked extremely relieved, and the old voice came into the ears of the returning Lian Tuo and the others.

The old man was unkempt and toothless, and he was wearing a wide purple robe, but it looked incompatible with his appearance, and at first glance, he couldn't help but give people an unbelievable feeling.

This person is the sect leader of the Lingyi Sect's generation!

Hundreds of years ago, when Lingyi Sect was still a medium sect, it was often known as a disciple of the Taishang Elder in the infancy of the First Yuan, and in a war of different races, all the strong people above the Lingyi Sect fell and none survived.

Then, at that time, as the only one left in the entire Lingyi Sect who had reached the late stage of foundation building, he had to fight against the arduous task of the sect's survival with other disciples who had reached foundation building.

Knowing that all the strong people in the sect's participation in the interracial war had fallen, he spent the next three hundred years desperately cultivating to improve his cultivation, and even did not hesitate to use the way of damaging the meridians in his body to forcibly break the realm obstacles of his own cultivation, and even swallowed countless pills used to improve his cultivation, and finally jumped from the late stage of foundation building to the strong man in the late stage of Yudan in the past two hundred years.

After more than 200 years, although Chang Yu's own cultivation has reached the late stage of the knot, the meridians in the body have already reached the moment of dying, and there is no hope that he can break through the late stage of the knot pill and reach the realm of the Yuan Infant in this life.

And with the passage of time, for more than three hundred years, several other sects that were medium-sized with the Lingyi Sect finally overrode the friendship of the sect after determining that there were no more Yuan Infant Stage monks in the Lingyi Sect, and snatched the Lingyi Sect Mountain Gate built on the source of the Lingyi Sect.

Under duress, Chang Yu had to take the disciples of Lingyi Sect to this fringe area with poor resources and thin spiritual energy to build a mountain gate again.

Although it is a marginal area, there are also many monks in Jiedan, and most of the sects that survive here are eyeing each other, and if they don't have the strength, they are destined to not be able to survive here.

Although he is said to be hopeless, with his peak in the late stage of the Yudan, he is an absolutely powerful cultivator in this area, but he can barely allow the Lingyi Sect to settle down here and slowly recuperate.

Now that a hundred years have passed, Chang Yu has finally decided to let Lingyi Sect open its sect widely, recruiting a large number of fresh blood, so that the strength of Lingyi Sect is expected to slowly recover and grow to its previous peak.

Now that he has found so many people in the first recruitment, he is naturally extremely happy in his heart.

These more than 400 people will be the capital that will allow the Lingyi Sect to grow slowly in the future.

And making Lingyi Sect strong again is the only wish of his Chang Yu who is still alive in the world.

"Sect Master, this time I found a total of four hundred and two people with spiritual root qualifications, including five with excellent and superior qualifications, forty with intermediate qualifications, and the remaining three hundred and fifty-seven people are all ordinary qualifications As for the reward, on the way back, I have promised to let the disciples who went with me enter the Sect Zangbao Pavilion to practice the magic powers, and I hope that the sect master will approve it!"

Elder Lin bowed his head and arched his hands, and said in a deep voice to Chang Yu.
