Lin Yi returned to the Xianshan Cave Mansion and saw that the starfish was asking Wang Qi for advice, and Wang Qi also showed the starfish what he had felt without reservation. ｛｝

Seeing the state of the starfish, Lin Yi smiled slightly, and finally put his mind at ease. After he went out for a while, the starfish had already broken through to the fourth layer of condensation, and his current state was very good, calm and humble, not impetuous, which was the state that a cultivator should have.

In the next ten days, there were no monks among the outer disciples who came to trouble Lin Yi and a few people, and Lin Yi was also relaxed.

But Lin Yi could feel that there were still some monks with obvious hostility, maybe they were waiting for the inner gate assessment at the end of the year, and wanted to make some moves in the battle of the Heart Refining Palace.

Lin Yi didn't take this matter to heart, but instead studied the formation quietly, and used the time of more than ten days to finally complete the repair of the sixth-layer Murderous Qi Refining Heart Array, which can be regarded as completing the task entrusted by the sect master.

At the end of the year, most of the more than 3,000 disciples of the outer gate went to participate, and only some disciples with low cultivation did not have any certainty, so they did not participate, including Lin Yi and the others.

Liu Ye and the others were facing the wall for a month, holding their stomachs, and waited for Lin Yi to be taught a good lesson in the battle of the Heart Refining Palace, but they didn't think about it, Lin Yi didn't mean to participate at all.

This made Liu Ye and the others extremely unhappy, but they didn't dare to break into Lin Yi's cave mansion without permission, who knows what formation was arranged there, if it was calculated again, this face would be lost.

On the third floor of Xianshan, there are fifty cave mansions here, and the people who live in them are the top fifty among the inner disciples.

In one of the caves, a monk dressed in a light purple "colored" Taoist robe, his body was round and round, like a big water tank, and the big horse golden knife sat on a high seat in the cave, which was Li Zhenhai among the core disciples.

Below stood a monk, with a foundation of cultivation, dressed in black, burly, and more than eight feet tall.

"Meng Ye, I heard that Mu Qing didn't participate in this year's inner door assessment?" Li Zhenhai asked calmly.

The monk who called Meng Ye nodded and said, "That's true, it is said that after Mu Qing won Senior Brother Ma that day, he rarely left the cave mansion, and only occasionally went to repair the Murderous Qi Refining Heart Array before he came out. And I heard that Mu Qing plans to participate in the inner door assessment at the end of tomorrow. ”

"Hmm......" Li Zhenhai groaned, his eyes narrowed slightly, the cold light flashed inside, and he fell into deep thought.

After half a ring, Li Zhenhai said slowly: "Meng Ye, I'll give you a task." ”

"Senior Brother Li, please speak. ”

Li Zhenhai said softly: "This time the inner sect assessment will be challenged by the outer disciples of our Eastern faction, and you will deliberately lose the competition." ”

"Why is this?" Meng Ye's face changed, and he asked suspiciously.

In the inner door assessment, losing the battle with the outer disciple means that he Meng Ye will be reduced to the outer disciple again, and all his previous efforts will be in vain. The top fifty of the inner disciples were successfully challenged by the outer disciples, which was even more humiliating.

Li Zhenhai snorted lightly and said, "I heard that Mu Qing actually comprehended the subtle way, this is a bit tricky. Hmph, the fifth layer of condensation can actually challenge the eighth layer of condensation in a row, and it seems that there is still some strength left, this person is not easy to deal with. ”

Meng Ye was a little confused when he heard this, but he didn't say anything to ask.

Li Zhenhai paused for a moment and said, "So if you lose the competition, you will be demoted to an outer disciple again." I want you to defeat Lin Yi in the battle of the Heart Refining Hall in next year's inner door assessment. With your strength, it is never a problem to be promoted to an inner disciple again. As for the face, hmph, as long as the monk is not a fool, he can see what is going on, and no one will look down on you. ”

Meng Ye's face showed a trace of hesitation, and he frowned: "Senior Brother Li, I'm a monk who has built a foundation, and it's a bit too much to deal with him as a Qi Condensing Monk, with Senior Brother Liu, they should be enough, right?"

"Hehe, it's over, you're still too tender, this Mu Qing is not simple, if it weren't for my identity, I would like to take action myself!" Li Zhenhai's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

Although Meng Ye belonged to the monks of the Eastern Sect, he also had some resistance to this small method in his heart, and he really didn't want to become a disciple of the outer sect again for the sake of a Mu Qing.

Li Zhenhai seemed to see Meng Ye's hesitation, and said in a deep voice: "This Mu Qing's origin is unknown, his identity is suspicious, my move is also for the sake of the sect, and I must not let him blend into the ranks of the inner disciples." What's more, when Mu Qing first arrived in the sect, he made the monks of our Eastern faction plant a big heel, and in just a few days, Elder Tang, Liu Ye, and Ma Quan all fell into the hands of this kid, and this revenge cannot be avenged!"

Meng Ye muttered in his heart for a while, and said that his identity is unknown, and it is estimated that the last grievance is the purpose of what you want to do to Mu Qing.

Not all the monks of the Eastern faction are gathered together, many monks are only hindered by the power of the Eastern faction, afraid of being suppressed, so they join it, in order to cultivate a peaceful path, this Meng Ye is one of them.

Besides, Senior Brother Dongfang is indeed very capable of leadership, and his strength belongs to the top of the many disciples, and he is bold, so he can gather a large number of monks around him to follow.

After thinking about this, Meng Ye asked tentatively: "Senior Brother Li, is this what Senior Brother Dongfang meant?"

"Huh?"

Li Zhenhai's face changed, his eyes stared at Meng Ye faintly, the golden pill aura exploded, and a powerful divine sense of coercion instantly descended and fell on Meng Ye's body.

Meng Ye snorted at the impact of the sudden coercion, a layer of cold sweat gradually broke out on his forehead, and his breathing became heavier.

Li Zhenhai said coldly: "You don't want to do it?"

Meng Ye endured the pressure and hissed, "Senior Brother Li, I, I didn't mean that, I just ...... Feel free to ask. ”

Li Zhenhai snorted lightly, slowly retracted the power of his divine sense, and said in a deep voice: "Meng Ye, I, Li Zhenhai, have always treated you as a brother and the core of our Eastern faction, if you don't want to do it, just say it, I won't force you, I can send someone else!"

Although this is a nice thing to say and does not force it, it smells of compulsion everywhere.

How could Meng Ye not hear it, he smiled far-fetchedly, and said, "Senior Brother Li, don't worry, hand it over to Meng Ye, and you will definitely teach that kid a good lesson!"

Li Zhenhai smiled with satisfaction, but his eyes were extremely cold, and he said coldly: "The lesson is also severe, the sect is just not allowed to kill and abolish cultivation, but you can beat him to a cripple, make him afraid of your methods, and don't dare to be arrogant in the future!"

Meng Ye's face changed slightly, and he said, "This is a bit excessive, after all, he is a person from the same family." ”

But he didn't dare to say it to his face.

Li Zhenhai may also have sensed the inappropriateness in his words, coughed lightly, and said slowly: "This move is also for the good of Senior Brother Mu, otherwise, with his 'nature' to the cultivation realm, sooner or later he will suffer a big loss." It's better to sharpen his edges and corners in the sect, which is also a kind of exercise for him. ”

Meng Ye nodded and said, "What Senior Brother Li said is extremely true. ”

And Lin Yi, who was meditating and enlightening in the cave at the foot of the Immortal Mountain, didn't know that a storm was brewing in the sect against him, and after the previous battle of the floating stone, some monks had begun to pay attention to him and target him.

After Lin Yi repaired the Murderous Qi Refining Heart Array, he could barely sit still.

The first is to continue to comprehend the subtle way, and the second is to consolidate one's own cultivation. Lin Yi faintly felt that his cultivation grew too fast after building the foundation, and in less than half a year, he reached the middle stage of foundation building.

There seems to be nothing wrong with this on the surface, but Lin Yi has heard from his master that foundation building is the most critical point in cultivation, and only when he really steps into foundation building can he be regarded as coming into contact with the true cultivation path. Taking a step back, it is condensation, but anyone with a little qualification can condense qi, but not everyone can build a foundation. Further, it is Jindan, Shouyuan can slightly break free from the shackles of heaven and earth, reaching an astonishing five hundred years.

And the most important thing is that since this stage is called foundation building, it is a stage of cultivating and laying a good foundation, and it is necessary to build the foundation step by step. Just like the frame foundation of a restaurant, if the foundation is not built, even if the restaurant is thousands of feet high in the future, problems will gradually emerge after the wind and rain.

This immortal mountain as a whole is full of strong immortal aura, even if it is a cave at the foot of the mountain, Lin Yi can clearly feel the rich aura in it, which is enough to withstand the speed of absorbing the lower grade spirit stones.

Lin Yi speculated that the aura on the top of the mountain should be more rich and refined, and the cultivation speed on the top of the mountain would also be greatly enhanced, which was also the reason why the disciples of the sect were scrambling to go to the upper echelons of the Immortal Mountain to open a cave. The cultivation speed there may be able to reach the level of absorbing medium-grade spirit stones or even high-grade spirit stones.

But Haixing and Wang Qi are both in the condensation stage, and the concentration of aura at the foot of the mountain is enough to use. This also created an excellent cultivation environment for Haixing and Wang Qi, and after Lin Yi carved the Spirit Gathering Array, it invisibly increased the cultivation speed of the two.

......

Time flies, and half a year has passed since the last inner door assessment.

In Lin Yi's cave mansion, Haixing and Wang Qi were observing the blue sword qi in Lin Yi's palm.

Today's starfish has the cultivation of the peak of the ninth layer of condensation, and he is in Qianlong Mountain, he has shed his physical mortal womb and turned into a dragon. With the rich aura of Xianshan, with the assistance of Lin Yi's Spirit Gathering Array, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and his understanding of the transformation technique has also made a breakthrough.

As for Wang Qi, although he is only a mortal in the flesh, he is better than diligence, and he has not slackened in the slightest for half a year, and under Lin Yi's careful guidance, he has even reached the ninth layer of condensation.

Lin Yi's cultivation in the past half a year has not improved in the slightest, but his aura has become more and more vigorous, and it is more and more unpredictable, and there is a faint trace of sword light in the depths of his eyes, which is sharp and sharp.

This time is the time of the sect ****.

Lin Yi and the three of them didn't go to watch, but they heard about two major events.

Haixing has been in retreat for half a year, and Mingkong seems to be a lot more sensible, calming down and retreating, and even broke through to the Jindan stage in front of the sect **** and became a veritable Jindan monk. However, due to the fact that the breakthrough was not long and the foundation was not stable, the challenge to the core disciple Li Zhenhai was not successful.

But it still posed a great threat to Li Zhenhai, and he almost tried his best to defeat Mingkong.

Another blockbuster news is that one of the core disciples of the sect, a monk named Wei Xingchen, successfully passed the sixth-layer trial of the Heart Refining Hall and obtained the qualification to inherit the secret art of the sect, becoming the third monk among the disciples of the sect to obtain the qualification of inheritance of the secret art.

Lin Yi didn't have much interest in this qiē, he was just waiting for the inner door assessment at the end of this year......
