296 Return to the Immortal Gate
296 Return to the Immortal Gate
A few months later, the Heavenly Void Immortal Gate.
Returning to the Immortal Gate and seeing the familiar peaks and palaces in the Heavenly Void Immortal Gate, Ye Chen was a little excited in his heart.
After five years, he's finally back!
When he left, he was a second-level disciple in the foundation building period, and his strength was insignificant among the second-generation disciples of the Xianmen, and he went to the Ulan Empire and other secular countries to carry out the Xianmen inspection mission. When he returned, he was a ninth-level cultivator in the foundation building period, and he had already reached the top level of the foundation building stage realm, and was eligible to participate in the pinnacle competition between the disciples of the nine great immortal sects.
In just five years, he has crossed the path that countless foundation building monks have pursued all their lives.
There is an island floating above the Heavenly Void Peak, which is the place where the ancestors live. The mountain in front of Tianxu Peak is where the Tianxu Palace is located, and the Tianxu Gate is heavy. The back mountain is where the Wang Zhang's family lived.
Tianxu Peak, back mountain.
Ye Chen wore a light plain white shirt, drove the flying sword to the foot of the mountain behind Tianxu Peak, then collected the flying sword and fell, walking on a winding moss stone step path in the back mountain. When he returned to Tianxumen, the first thing he did was naturally to pay homage to the head of the king. Other monks can not be used, but after all, he is the head of the family and the disciple, and the etiquette between master and apprentice must be followed. In addition, he also wanted to ask the head about participating in the Xianmen joint examination.
He walked halfway through the stone steps of the back mountain, and suddenly two taciturn white-clothed Zhuji guards flashed from the corner of the bushes beside the road, looking at him indifferently.
Ye Chen casually took out a dark token and lit it up.
The two guards glanced at the identity token in Ye Chen's hand, "Disciple of the Wang's Sect, Ye Chen?" They were slightly stunned and glanced at each other, this name was too unfamiliar. However, the head of the Wang sect does have such a disciple. Those who dare to pretend to be the head disciples in the Tianxu Sect are probably not born yet.
"Senior Brother Ye, please!"
They carefully checked the token, looked at Ye Chen, bowed their hands respectfully to Ye Chen, and disappeared into the bushes again.
Ye Chen then went all the way unimpeded, and came to a luxurious courtyard in the mountain behind Tianxu Peak, and as far as the eye could see, more than ten miles were full of immortal pavilions, full of spiritual flowers and plants, full of spiritual energy.
"Senior Sister Ying, look what this is! This is a fifth-order green spirit bead! I asked for it from the head of the family, and with this one, you will be able to raise all nine colors of spirit beads, and you can make a very powerful magic weapon. ”
At the entrance of the courtyard, four young and handsome male and female monks were laughing and talking. One of them, a man and a woman, is on the fourth floor of the foundation period, while the other two are on the fifth floor of the foundation building period.
One of them, a slightly thin man, holding a green spirit bead, was pleasing a charming woman in a green shirt.
They saw a white-shirted monk approaching from a distance, and when they turned their heads, they couldn't help but be stunned.
"Senior Brother Ye, Senior Brother Ye!"
"You're back?"
The slightly thin man opened his mouth and called out to Senior Brother, but when he found that something was wrong, he immediately changed his name to Senior Brother. The spiritual pressure aura on Ye Chen's body had obviously far surpassed them. You must honestly call you a senior brother.
The four of them recognized Ye Chen almost at first sight. It was not surprising that they were able to recognize Ye Chen at once. Because they went to the Ulan Empire with Ye Chen five years ago to carry out the Immortal Gate mission, they had a long time of contact.
"Senior Sister Wang Ying, Senior Sister Xu, Senior Brother Qin, Senior Brother Kang, long time no see!"
Ye Chen smiled faintly and nodded at the green-shirted woman and the other three. The woman in the green shirt is the queen of the king's family. The other three are Xu Ping, Qin Tao, and Kang Lijun.
They were all one of the few foundation-building monks that Ye Chen was familiar with in the Immortal Sect.
"Senior Sister Ying, is the palm here?"
Ye Chen glanced at the courtyard and said to Wang Ying in a flat tone.
"Well, my dad is here. Senior Brother Ye has something to do with my father?"
Wang Ying somehow suddenly felt a little cramped in front of Ye Chen, pinching the corner of her skirt with both hands, showing a trace of shyness on her face, and nodded in a low voice.
"It's nothing, it's just that I just returned to Xianmen and came to see my master. Senior Sister Ying, I'll go find Shizun, let's talk!"
Ye Chen nodded lightly, said goodbye to Wang Ying, and then entered the courtyard alone.
Wang Ying, Xu Ping, Qin Tao, and Kang Lijun were still in the shock just now and did not wake up.
"Ye Chen, how did he cultivate into a ninth-layer cultivator in the foundation building period?!"
Qin Tao was still stunned.
"Is he really Ye Chen?"
Kang Lijun was also full of disbelief.
In the past few years, they have traveled together in various parts of the Yunzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm, inspecting the countries under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Sect. Although he went to the secular world to enjoy the mountains and rivers under the banner of "entering the WTO to cultivate", he did not delay the time, and he was still cultivating when he was supposed to cultivate, and he also used a lot of elixirs.
In the past five years, their cultivation has also improved to the second or third level. This progress is already very good, and it is estimated that within thirty years, there will be a chance to rush to the realm of the late stage of foundation building. This is quite a rapid progress among the monks of the foundation building period. When they cultivated to the late stage of foundation building, they were only about fifty or sixty years old, and they were still very young monks for the two hundred years of life during the foundation building period.
They are the descendants of Brother Jindan, and they have so many elixirs in their hands. But Ye Chen, he was a casual cultivator, how could he cultivate to the ninth layer of the foundation building period?!
Wang Ying watched Ye Chen enter the courtyard, the mood on her face was obviously a little low, her heart was a little troubled, and she bit her lower lip. She is the daughter of the head of the house, but Ye Chen's attitude towards her seems to be very light, and he doesn't particularly care, and he doesn't even take a second look.
She glanced back at Qin Tao and Kang Lijun, who were still stunned, and suddenly felt inexplicable disgust and irritability in her heart, "Senior Brother Qin, Senior Brother Kang, you go back first! I'll go to my father and help me refine magic weapons." ”
Deep courtyard, a living room.
The head of the king got the porter's gift, and after a while, he met Ye Chen in the living room.
"Disciple Ye Chen, meet the master!"
Ye Chen came to the front of the hall and bowed to the head of the king.
Boss Wang looked at Ye Chen, who he hadn't seen in the front of the hall for five years, and his eyes were a little surprised, "You have cultivated to the ninth layer of the foundation building stage, how did you do it?"
"Back then, the disciple made meritorious contributions in the Earth Flame Mountain and was rewarded with 600,000 Spirit Stone Immortal Sects. The disciple pondered that he couldn't waste it, so he went to Wangtian City to buy and sell various materials, and earned a lot of spirit stones in the past few years. The master once instructed the disciple to come back to participate in the Xianmen joint examination, and the disciple did not dare to forget it at all. Over the years, relying on this spirit stone, he has been practicing diligently in Wangtian City, and successfully broke through the ninth layer of the foundation building period. When the disciple came back this time, he would follow the teacher's instructions and participate in the Xianmen Joint Entrance Examination!"
Ye Chen lowered his eyebrows and said honestly.
Master Wang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while. Back then, Ye Chen made a contribution, and he was happy for a while, so he asked Ye Chen to return to Xianmen in five years, in fact, he asked him to watch the battle of the joint entrance examination to increase his cultivation knowledge.
It's just that he didn't expect that Ye Chen would directly cultivate to the ninth layer of the foundation building period and participate in the joint entrance examination.
"It's fine. You are already at the ninth level of the foundation building period, and according to the regulations, you are qualified to represent the Tianxu Immortal Sect to participate in the Nine Great Immortal Gate Joint Entrance Examination. However, there are a total of 1,72 spiritual peaks in this gate, and each peak has a second-generation foundation building monk. As long as you reach the late stage of foundation building, you can compete for the joint entrance examination token of this course. There are a total of ten such tokens in the Heavenly Void Gate, and in the hands of the ten strongest foundation building late-stage cultivators, you just need to challenge them, get one of them, and replace them. You can go and try it!"
The head of the king groaned for a moment, and said with his hand brushing his green beard.
He didn't have much hope for Ye Chen to win the joint entrance examination token. It is not easy to rush to the ninth layer of the foundation building period in just five years of cultivation, and it is impossible to even reach an extremely high level of combat skills and spells. The fighting methods between monks are not just based on cultivation.
But it doesn't hurt to let Ye Chen give it a try.
"The disciple heard that only the five strongest foundation building monks could participate in the Immortal Gate Joint Examination. How could the Heavenly Void Gate have ten tokens, would it send ten people to participate in the battle?"
Ye Chen was a little surprised.
"No, only five main monks can play. The remaining five are reserve places, and if the main monk is injured in the big test, the spare monk will take his place. If no one is injured all the time, the backup monk will not be able to play. The specific number of people who will be the main force and which people will be on standby will be decided by the master and the ten elders together, and it will be known in a few days. ”
Master Wang took a sip of fragrant spiritual tea and said with a smile, "I have been busy with the affairs of the teacher these days, and I want to welcome the monks from the major immortal sects who come to take the joint entrance examination, so I won't keep you much." Go back and get ready!"
"Yes, the disciple won't disturb the master!"
Ye Chen saluted respectfully and exited the hall, before turning around and leaving.
Master Wang watched Ye Chen leave, but sighed.
Wang Ying had already arrived outside the hall, and after seeing Ye Chen and her father talking, she entered the hall and said a little strangely, "Dad, what are you sighing about?"
"I've been a little too negligent with him over the years. This son is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, his bones are too hard, I wanted to let him go and let him suffer a little, so that he could know how important his father's support to him is, but he didn't expect that after five years, he has been practicing outside, and he is already the ninth layer of the foundation building period. ”
Master Wang shook his head and said.
He regretted it a little in his heart.
At the beginning, although he accepted Ye Chen, the first monk of the three-year major examination, as a disciple, and wanted Ye Chen to completely integrate into the Xianmen royal lineage, Ye Chen was very resistant in his heart. So that the master and apprentice did not get along happily, and he didn't bother to care about this disciple.
I didn't think that Ye Chen would come back in five or six years, and he didn't have to rely on him as a master, and he had actually cultivated to the ninth layer of the foundation building period.
That's strength!
Cultivation aside, the ability to just do business is also very strong!
If he could have been more tactful and cordial back then, La Yechen would have entered the royal family, and he would also be a capable manager. You can hand over some of the transactions run by the Wang family to Ye Chen. With his status as a master and apprentice, it is still very promising to win over Ye Chen.
"Daddy can also win him over now, you are the head of Tianxu, except for the ancestor in Tianxumen, who dares not to give you face! He has just returned to Xianmen, didn't he honestly come to see you!"
Wang Ying pouted, a little unconvinced.
"Now?"
The head of the king smiled bitterly, "It's a little late now, his wings have long been hardened, if you want to cultivate for cultivation, you need to have a spirit stone, where do you need to see my father's old face." He came to visit me, which is the rule of keeping the teacher's door, but he may not have the heart to take refuge. Besides, Dad was also busy entertaining fellow Daoists of the Nine Great Immortal Sects during this time, and he didn't have time to greet him and let Senior Brother Xu go and talk to him, make up for it, so as not to be too angry.
