Mortal Seeking Immortal

For half a month, Ye Zhou insisted on practicing hard day and night. In addition to taking care of the medicine field during the day, he practiced the fire bomb technique and the ground sinking technique. At night, he took medicine and practiced the nameless technique.

In this way, day after day, half a month passed quickly.

In the morning of this day, when the first ray of sunlight shone on the small courtyard, the door that had been closed all night opened from the inside with a creak.

After practicing all night, Ye Zhou walked out in high spirits. He stood on the steps and took a few deep breaths of the moist and cool air in the courtyard, and then skillfully came to an open space.

He stretched out his right hand with a serious look, and after a moment, a high-temperature fireball as big as a small watermelon and flashing with strong light appeared in his right hand.

The terrifying heat wave spread out, and the dew on the ground was evaporating rapidly.

His fire bomb technique had successfully broken through to the realm of transformation yesterday!

After breaking through the realm of transformation, the fire bomb technique has basically reached the peak of practice, and is at the same level as Mr. Shu, whom he has always envied.

Of course, Ye Zhou's spiritual power is far inferior to that of Shu Lao. At the same level, Shu Lao is many times more powerful than Ye Zhou in the fire bomb technique.

Of course, releasing the fire bomb technique consumes more spiritual power.

It would take one or two years for an ordinary cultivator to practice a low-level spell to the ultimate level, but since Ye Zhou has taken the Jade Branch Fruit many times to enhance his soul, he has been able to comprehend spells much faster than ordinary people.

The soul is something that the sect does not test when entering the sect.

The soul of an ordinary person is not too abnormal, but the soul of some special people is naturally strong, with good memory, and they learn things faster than other people with weak souls.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if Ye Zhou reveals that his soul is stronger. It is reasonable and has the opportunity to gain the attention of the sect.

"Go." Ye Zhou waved his hand, and the fireball flew towards a boulder three meters away at an incredible speed.

In the blink of an eye, the fireball collided with the boulder, making a deafening explosion.

Large sparks swept out from the explosion.

Ye Zhou clapped his hands and summoned a thick earth wall to resist the flames.

When the residual heat dissipated, Ye Zhou looked at the original place and saw that the hard boulder had turned into a pile of rubble. Not only that, a large round pit half a meter deep appeared on the original place.

"This pit can be used to collect water, which will be more convenient for irrigating the medicinal fields in the future. Old Shu should not care about such trivial matters."

"If he fights Zhao Xu again, this fire bomb alone will be enough for him!"

"It's just that the consumption of spiritual power by this fire bomb technique in the transformation realm is too great. With my spiritual power of the fourth level of Qi training, I'm afraid I can only cast it five or six times."

"In the future, try not to use the fire bomb technique in the transformation realm unless it is absolutely necessary. The power of the fire bomb technique is already good." Ye Zhou recalled that a full fifth of the spiritual power in his body was drawn away at the moment the fire bomb was fired, and he muttered to himself with lingering fear.

He returned to the room and quickly meditated to recover the spiritual power he had just consumed.

Today is the day of the promotion competition, and you must ensure that you have sufficient spiritual power before participating.

Not only that, Ye Zhou also specially prepared some medicinal juices that can quickly restore spiritual power for this competition, in case of emergency.

When Ye Zhou walked out of the room with sufficient spiritual power, Shu Lao just came.

"Boy, there is still a chance to quit now!"

"Do you think that with your cultivation of the second level of Qi training, you can successfully advance to an outer disciple among hundreds of servants?" Without waiting for Ye Zhou to salute, Shu Lao scolded with a serious face.

If it were someone else, Shu Lao would never come here to dissuade him, but Ye Zhou is the most satisfactory servant Shu Lao has ever used. If he dies in this promotion competition, it would be a pity?

"Look at this big pit, Shu Lao." Ye Zhou saluted Shu Lao respectfully without explaining anything more.

Shu Lao's face changed, and he said with a little surprise.

"This is, this is... the Fire Bomb Technique of the Transformation Realm? Good boy! Not bad, not bad!"

"No wonder you have an excellent memory and made no mistakes when refining the elixir. Your soul seems to be much stronger than other chores disciples!"

"With this Fire Bomb Technique, you may indeed have a chance to take a seat, but be careful. For those who practice, life and death are often decided in an instant. In many cases, luck is more important than strength!"

"Go if you want to. I will leave the chores in my courtyard for you until the end of the competition." Seeing that Ye Zhou had made up his mind, Mr. Shu waved his hand and said no more.

...

In front of the Nameless Peak of the Blood Spirit Sect, there is a square about a hundred feet wide. There are four black giant pillars erected around the square. On the top of each giant pillar, there is a lifelike and ferocious monster carved.

The four beasts were either standing or sitting, with different postures, but their red eyes were staring at the square at their feet greedily, as if ready to pounce and devour people at any time, making the servants standing on the square feel cold on their backs and their hair stand on end.

When Ye Zhou saw the four ferocious-looking beasts, he almost thought they were alive, and his spiritual sense immediately scanned them. After finding out that they were just sculptures, he felt relieved.

He came to a corner where no one noticed and stood still, ready to carefully observe the strength of his opponents, so that he could be prepared in his heart.

Not only Ye Zhou, almost every servant participating in the competition in the square was quietly looking at and detecting the opponents beside him.

However, before Ye Zhou released his spiritual sense, he felt more than a dozen spiritual senses sweeping over him one after another. After sensing his cultivation level of "Qi Training Second Stage", these spiritual senses seemed to lose interest in him and quickly moved away.

Seeing that everyone was so tacitly aware of this, Ye Zhou also began to use his spiritual sense to detect the strength of these opponents with confidence.

After some investigation, he found that among the more than 150 servants who came to participate in the competition, there were more than 130 people at the peak of the second level of Qi training and more than 10 people at the third level of Qi training.

Among these more than 10 people, there were two people whose auras were much stronger than those of ordinary third-level Qi training, and it seemed that they had not just entered the third level of Qi training.

One of these two people was a sturdy young man wearing coarse cloth clothes. He was chatting and laughing with several servants at the peak of the second level of Qi training beside him, and a simple smile appeared on his honest face from time to time.

Although he looked very honest on the surface, Ye Zhou knew that he was actually meticulous. Among the dozen or so spiritual senses that just scanned him, there was the spiritual sense of this sturdy young man.

While chatting and laughing, he could always pay attention to everyone coming in and out of the square, even the most remote corners. Such a person pretended to be honest, and his mind was deep.

I don’t know how many people will fall for his honest appearance.

There was another person wearing a light blue satin shirt, looking frail, holding a folding fan, looking like a weak scholar, with several servants at the peak of the second stage of Qi training beside him.

This person was as strong as the sturdy young man.

If they fought alone, Ye Zhou might not be afraid of them, but they were accompanied by several servants.

If they attacked together, Ye Zhou was not sure that he could repel them one by one!
