Chapter 0822: The Revenge Returns
This time, there was no need to even pass it on, and the outer disciples of the entire Taiyi Sect already knew about Xu Bansheng's entry into the late stage of qi refining.
It was inevitable that a group of people came to congratulate them, but on the contrary, Pan Dongliu, Niu Bench and Chen Yuanliang, who were good friends with Xu Bansheng, fell behind.
They had long thought that when Xu Bansheng entered the late stage of Qi refining, the threshold would inevitably be broken, how similar was this to the situation when he first started? It's just that at that time, everyone went to see the excitement and wanted to see how the hatred spirit tortured a newcomer, but now, they wanted to establish a good relationship with Xu Bansheng.
It's only been three years since he started, and he has already refined the Qi Seventh Heaven, and in about half a year, the so-called first person from the outer gate will come back, and it will not be a problem for Xu Bansheng to refine the Qi Eight Heavens, and the Soul can build a foundation is still unknown. Even if the foundation is built, what then? After more than ten years of penance and complete experience and walking, how can it be compared to a person who has reached the late stage of qi refining in three years? At the beginning, the gap between Xu Bansheng and the enemy soul was four or five heavens, but now? Seeing that this gap is about to disappear. After Xu Bansheng also builds the foundation, I am afraid that the two will soon stand on the same starting line, and it will not take ten years for Xu Bansheng to leave the hatred far behind.
Which is stronger and which is weaker, has already made a judgment, and what Xu Bansheng is losing now is just his age.
Treating those disciples who had no friendship, Xu Bansheng only responded with vain and grievances, he didn't plan to make friends with these people, and he didn't have time to make friends with them. These people will be left far behind by him in the future. What if you make friends? Could it be that more than 100 years later, looking at their corpses and remembering their youthful years?
This is the cruelty of the world of cultivating immortals, some people can live for hundreds or thousands of years. And some people are destined to live only slightly longer than mortals, and compared to the long river of years, they can't even stir up the slightest wave.
Finally dealt with those disciples who couldn't even remember their names, Xu Bansheng took the initiative to leave the courtyard, and as soon as he walked out, he saw Pan Dongliu and the cow stool. and Chen Yuanliang has been waiting outside the hospital for a long time.
The four of them went to the market again, and returned drunk again without surprise. Not long ago, they also made breakthroughs. The Pan Dongliu Wagyu Cow Stool that had entered the Eight Heavens of Qi Refining was a little better, at least it continued to be ahead of Xu Bansheng, but Chen Yuanliang was stunned to find that he was already behind Xu Bansheng. After thinking about it, he still opened his mouth and called Xu Bansheng a senior brother.
It was only when the wine was hot that Chen Yuanliang said the suffocation in his chest, just three years ago, he had already refined the Qi Four Heavens, and in the past two years, his cultivation has progressed rapidly. But he encountered a pervert like Xu Bansheng, who went from the first day of qi refining at the beginning to the seventh heaven of qi refining today. It's just that he doesn't know Xu Bansheng's true cultivation yet, otherwise. I have to be even more discouraged, I'm afraid that even the mind of cultivating immortals will be much weaker.
Pan Dongliu and Niu Stool were still comforting Chen Yuanliang, saying that the two of them were just lucky to be ahead of Xu Bansheng now. In less than two years, Xu Bansheng is afraid that he will succeed in building the foundation, and the two of them, it will take at least five to ten years to build the foundation, unless there are other adventures. But. This journey of cultivating immortals is extremely cruel, how can there be so many adventures to speak of?
Between words. The three of them realized in a trance that the days when they could sit at the same table and drink with Xu Bansheng were numbered, and soon Xu Bansheng would enter the inner gate and become the predecessors of the foundation building, while they would continue to suffer at the outer gate.
This wine can't help but be a little dull.
Xu Bansheng is also helpless, he values Pan Dongliu and Niu Stool very much, after all, this is the only friend he has since coming to this world, but the difference in qualifications has led to the absolute gap in the future immortal journey, which is not something that Xu Bansheng can reverse.
The Five Elements Divine Transformation can enhance a person's qualifications, and Xu Bansheng has not thought of letting Pan Dongliu and Niu Stool also cultivate the Five Elements Divine Transformation. But firstly, this matter is very important, and secondly, even if they are allowed to cultivate the Five Elements Divine Transformation, what can they do? With their qualifications, it is difficult for Yuan Ying, and their cultivation in this life basically stops at Jindan. After cultivating the Five Elements Divine Transformation, his qualifications have improved by a bit, and at best, he is just a Yuan Infant. This is only the realm that they can finally reach, and if they want to turn into a baby, I am afraid it will take at least three or four hundred years for them. At that time, Xu Bansheng didn't know what kind of situation he had come, and the world and opponents he faced were no longer the same, did he still want to let Pan Dongliu and Niu Bench continue to be friends with him with complicated feelings?
The immortal path is so cruel, and it is not beneficial for anyone to pull out the seedlings and promote them, so just let it be natural and let this gap be gradually widened.
While drunk, the three of them stared at their blood-red eyes, and their eyes were full of jealousy when they looked at Xu Bansheng. There's no way, who can't be jealous of such a thing as talent?
After that, the three of them seemed to have consciously or unintentionally begun to keep a distance from Xu Bansheng, not deliberately to alienate him, but they also understood that Xu Bansheng and them were not really fellow travelers, if they were already free birds compared to many people, then Xu Bansheng was a goshawk hovering high above the sky. It's not that goshawks can't fly low, but if you let those little birds fly to the height of goshawks, it's absolutely impossible.
Rather than being forced to walk by the huge gap in the future, it is better to keep a certain distance now.
In this regard, Xu Bansheng is also helpless, he can't do anything, the fate between people is like this, there is always a time to dilute parting.
In his heart, he silently blessed Pan Dongliu and Niu Stool, hoping that their future journey of cultivating immortals would be smoother, and in addition, Xu Bansheng would not be able to do anything.
Another half a year passed, and Xu Bansheng was steadily on the master's conference and entered the Eight Heavens of Qi Refining.
The outer disciples were already a little numb to Xu Bansheng's rapid increase in cultivation, and it was no longer possible for these people to be very surprised by what happened to Xu Bansheng after only three breakthroughs in a year. On the contrary, if the growth rate of Xu Bansheng's cultivation suddenly slows down, this is news.
In a few days, there was a commotion in the outer gate, and it was time for the annual inner gate assessment, and all the disciples who had successfully built the foundation in the outer gate could accept the inner gate assessment on this day. Once passed, then you can enter the inner gate and become the senior in the mouth of the outer disciples.
And some disciples of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining can also make a request to the inner gate to take a foundation building pill and build the foundation today. If you succeed, you will naturally accept the internal assessment, and if you fail, you can only wait for the next year.
Zhuji Dan is not given for nothing, if the foundation is successfully built and passes the inner door assessment, and becomes an inner disciple, it will naturally be rewarded. That reward was enough to offset this Tsukidan. But if you fail to pass the assessment or fail to succeed in building the foundation, then you have to use the future monthly rules and a little deduction to repay the consumption of this foundation building pill.
In addition, the disciples who went out three years ago to experience and walk will all come back today, and if nothing else, Qiu Soul and Guan Kai are also among them. At this point today, who would not have thought that the hated soul and Guan Kai were taken care of by the inner gate back then and taken to experience walking? It's just that no one dares to make a fuss about this matter.
As the flying boats landed in the mountain gate, the disciples who had gone out to practice and walk in the inner gate came back one after another, and soon, the outer disciples also saw the appearance of a refreshed and even a face full of pride and self-satisfaction.
Guan Kai stood side by side with him, his spirit and spirit were no different from the enemy soul, the slight difference was that he showed a state of arrogance, but he was never arrogant, but the enemy soul was full of the appearance of looking down on the disciples of the outer sect.
There are thousands of disciples who have long been friends with the enemy soul to greet him, although the previous enemy soul does not look down on these people, but they will always have a false relationship with them, at least to keep a good face. But now, he completely ignored it, and when those disciples greeted him, it was air, and he couldn't see them in his eyes at all.
Those disciples retreated one after another, and only then did they notice that the eyes of the enemy were fixed on a person, and that person was Xu Bansheng.
Xu Bansheng still looked indifferent, he completely ignored the hatred of the enemy, and didn't seem to care about the hatred in the eyes of the enemy.
This made the hatred of the soul hate Xu Bansheng even more, and he only thought in his heart, I was stronger than you before, and because you and I were both outside the door, I couldn't do anything with you. But now, I have already laid the foundation, and the assessment of the inner door is a game for me at all, how dare you be so rude in front of me? The difference between the inner door and the outer door is not only sky-high? When I pass the examination of the inner door and confirm the identity of the disciple of the inner gate, I will definitely teach you a good lesson.
And Guan Kai didn't have anything particularly close to, and after greeting a limited number of disciples, his eyes also fell on Xu Bansheng.
Many people thought that Guan Kai also had a deep hatred for Xu Bansheng, but Xu Bansheng knew that in Guan Kai's gaze, even if it was not a feeling of affection, it would definitely not be hatred. Xu Bansheng believed that the teacher would definitely tell Guan Kai the truth, back then, it was he who went to the central government to beg the teacher, and Guan Kai had the opportunity to go out to walk and practice.
The content of the inner door assessment is absolutely secret, at least for the disciples who are not qualified to participate in the assessment, it is impossible to know the content of the assessment.
This year, there are only six disciples from the outer gate to participate in the inner door assessment, and four of them have successfully built the foundation in the previous years, and all of them have already attacked the inner door assessment at least once without results. This year, it is a new opportunity for them, once they pass, their identity will be turned upside down, and if they can't pass, they will still have to struggle at the outer gate.
The other two are only Qiu Soul and Guan Kai.
The six of them were assessed at the inner door together, and they were still on the martial arts arena, and when their hands were on the stone pillars in it, it meant that they had begun the assessment process.
However, in the time of a stick of incense, the enemy soul had already walked out of the martial arts arena, and the master of the Duyu Hall of the Internal Affairs Office, who was specially responsible for the assessment of disciples, announced that the enemy soul had passed the assessment.
All the disciples exclaimed, although none of these disciples had ever experienced the inner door assessment, but they also watched the assessment every year. Like the enemy soul, the disciples who passed the assessment so quickly, at least this batch of outer disciples have never seen it.
As soon as the hatred spirit came to the scene, he locked his eyes on Xu Bansheng's body again. (To be continued)
