Chapter 86: Nine Palaces

"Don't you know?"

Xiong Jianmu looked at Li Qingyun in astonishment and said so.

"I asked the great elder Yang Hai Aoxue. When she took down the Soul-Snatching Sect, she went to look for Ye Xiaoyu, but she didn't find any trace of Ye Xiaoyu in the end. Did she leave the sect a long time ago?"

Xiong Jianmu sighed and said, "It seems that you really don't understand."

"Sister Ye Xiaoyu has reached the state of great perfection of Qi training two years ago, but she has not yet established a foundation."

"It's because she has extraordinary talent and hopes to strive for a better foundation when she builds a foundation.

For example, we... we are satisfied with a medium-grade foundation, and we are happy with a high-grade foundation. For Sister Ye Xiaoyu's talent, at least a super-grade foundation, or even the legendary perfect foundation is worthy of her."

Li Qingyun nodded. He grew up with Ye Xiaoyu and knew that Ye Xiaoyu's cultivation speed was many times faster than his since childhood. She was always the highest level among her peers. In the first two years, she suppressed her realm and stayed in the great perfection of Qi training. I think this is the purpose.

"At that time, Situ Quan also valued her very much, but he had other purposes. These few days, I have checked the documents of the sect and found that there is a peerless sect called Qingluan Hall, which recruits students every fifty years across the entire continent, and the most recent recruitment examination was this year."

"It is said that every time a qualified disciple is sent in, the small sect that sends the disciple can get a considerable reward, so for the past two years, Situ Quan and the elders Xu Taihe have been doing their best to train Senior Sister Ye Xiaoyu."

"While you were entangled with Huang Quanzi and others, Senior Sister Ye Xiaoyu had been sent to the recruitment examination site of Qingluan Hall by the elders in the sect."

"She... left?" Li Qingyun's mind was empty, and he couldn't accept it for a while.

"But you don't have to worry, Sect Master. It is said that Senior Sister Ye Xiaoyu, with the cultivation of Qi training, can defeat the elders in the late stage of foundation building."

"Did she leave anything for me?" Li Qingyun asked anxiously.

Xiong Jianmu was stunned for a moment and said softly: "No."

"..."

"Oh." Li Qingyun lowered his voice.

But after a moment, he raised his head again and asked, "Where is she taking the test?"

Xiong Jianmu said, "It is said that the disciples in our Jiugong Dao area all went to the Jiugongs in various places for the test."

"Is that so..."

The Dihua Prefecture where Li Qingyun is located is affiliated with Muye Prefecture along with several nearby prefectures, and Muye Prefecture and several nearby states are all under the jurisdiction of a huge sect.

This sect is called Cangliu Palace, which is a nine-star sect.

And Cangliu Palace is a branch of an even larger sect, and together with the other eight palaces, it forms an even more gargantuan sect called "Jiugong Dao."

"Dao" is a higher unit than "zhou", and one "Dao" contains dozens of "zhous" and countless "fu".

Just like after Qingshan Sect unified Dihua Prefecture, Dihua Prefecture was renamed Qingshan Prefecture, and this Jiugong Dao was formed when the "Jiugong" unified the Dao that was originally unknown, and finally formed the "Jiugong Dao".

Such a sect composed of nine nine-star sects is undoubtedly a sect of the Daotong level.

Thinking of this, Li Qingyun looked serious and warned himself:

"Li Qingyun, you must not be complacent just because you have achieved a little success in this small place of Dihua Prefecture. You must continue to work hard. These are far from enough!"

"Ding, the host is determined and more confident on the road to the strongest sect. Reward the host with 100 genius points."

Li Qingyun curled his lips. One hundred points, really generous.

But the host's message immediately made Li Qingyun excited.

System: "The gate transformed by the system can help the host sneak into the secret realms of other sects at the cost of genius points."

"Is the assessment secret realm of Jiugong Dao OK?"

System: "Jiugong Dao [Yunmengze] Secret Realm:

Opening time: tomorrow at noon.

Strength limit: below heaven and man.

Resources: exotic beasts, exotic flowers and herbs, spiritual medicine.

Treasure land: Marrow washing pool, assists Qi training monks to condense the foundation of Taoism, standard configuration of Daotong-level sects, is the top foundation condensation treasure land in the cultivation world, with a chance to make progress Those who enter can condense into a perfect foundation for the Dao;

The Golden Core Pool, which assists the foundation-building cultivators in forming the core, is a standard feature of the Daotong-level sects. It is currently the top golden core condensation treasure land in the cultivation world, and has a chance to make those who enter condense into a top-level golden core;

The Infant Pond, which assists the Golden Core cultivators in forming the infant, is a relatively advanced Yuanying condensation treasure land in the cultivation world. "

"Gurgle." Li Qingyun swallowed his saliva. He has reached the false core realm. Recently, he has been worrying about how to form the core. Although his current realm is false core, without the golden core, he can only be regarded as a foundation-building cultivator.

If you form the core by yourself without the assistance of the treasure land, even if you are now a flawless foundation, there is a high probability that you will form a golden core of low quality.

Although the system can improve the quality of the foundation, who can guarantee that it can also improve the quality of the golden core? Even if it can improve the quality of the golden core... I don’t know how many genius points I will have to lose by then...

So, when forming the core for the first time, you must form the best golden core as much as possible. After all, a treasure land that specializes in assisting the formation of the core is definitely the top in the cultivation world and is definitely not in vain.

Besides, I still have to go to the secret realm to look for Xiaoyu, how can I not go?

Although time is a bit tight, the secret realm will be opened tomorrow, but I finally caught up.

But it’s time to bring Ping An and Xun Liang with me. They are not weak among the Qi training cultivators, so it’s good to go in and hone their skills.

…

After making up his mind, Li Qingyun went to the back mountain and called out several disciples who were practicing.

Ping An and Xun Liang were practicing the "Yuelu Swordsmanship" newly assigned to them by Li Qingyun in the back mountain, while the newcomer Pu Guangtou sat on the ground, lowered his head, and played with the sand with both hands in aggrieved manner.

Li Qingyun said: "Why don't you two bring your... junior brother to practice together?"

Speaking of the word junior brother, Li Qingyun looked at the bald man who was two or three times older than him, as peaceful as a little boy, and his face twitched.

When Ping An saw Li Qingyun coming, he threw away his sword and ran over to grab Li Qingyun's hand.

"Master, it's not that we don't take him with us, it's that he said that playing with a sword is too scary and he doesn't dare to use a sword." Ping An grabbed Li Qingyun's hand, shook it, and said affectionately.

Li Qingyun looked at the two-meter-tall bald man playing with the sand: "..."

"Forget it, then he doesn't need to learn swordsmanship."

"Oh, Master..." Pingan grabbed Li Qingyun's hand and twisted his feet back and forth. He obviously had something to say but was embarrassed.

"What's wrong?"

Ping An's legs were almost twisted into knots: "Well...can I not be his senior brother, but his junior brother? Well...I will be a junior disciple from now on, okay?"

Li Qingyun wondered: "Why?"

Ping An's face turned red: "Ping An knows that no matter how many children there are in the family, the youngest one is usually the one that causes the most pain... Ping An used to be the youngest child, so everyone loved me the most..."

Li Qingyun was dumbfounded, this little devil is safe, he is really a little devil...

Ping An's big black eyes rolled: "Master, okay? From now on, when Ping An is a young disciple, he must honor the Master well. He will give you water to wash your feet, beat your back and shoulders, go up the mountain of swords, and come down from the fire..."

"Stop, stop, stop! I promise you, I promise you!" Li Qingyun said hurriedly.

It's really unbearable for such a cute baby to act coquettishly.

"Okay, thank you, Master!" Ping An cheered and ran to Pu Guangtou. It seems that he will become Pu Guangtou's junior disciple in the future.

"You three, get ready and go out with me early tomorrow morning."

Ping An's eyes shone: "Do you want to fight, Master?"

"right."

The bald man who was playing in the sand looked extremely ugly. He turned to look at Li Qingyun with an expression as if he was about to cry: "Master, can I not go..."
