Mortal Seeking Immortal

After returning to his residence, Ye Zhou released several spirit insects from his insect control bag, preparing to select some powerful spirit insects to participate in the spirit beast sect assessment.

The most powerful spirit insect Ye Zhou had was the spirit armor beetle, but the spirit armor beetle was an ancient spirit insect, and its identity was too eye-catching. In order to avoid attracting attention, Ye Zhou did not plan to use the spirit armor beetle this time.

After a selection, Ye Zhou's eyes were fixed on the mutant spirit insect centipede.

The centipede had swallowed the Jade Ice Silkworm before, and then swallowed a lot of insect feeding pills and high-year spirit plants. Its cultivation had reached the twelfth level of Qi training. Its body size was twice that of an ordinary centipede, and it could spit out poisonous cold air, which could corrode the formation, and it was a means of fighting against the enemy in battle.

As soon as the centipede was released, it climbed up and rubbed Ye Zhou's arm affectionately. Ye Zhou casually threw it a feeding pill. The centipede happily took the feeding pill and walked to the side and began to swallow it.

But it was not safe to only take out the centipede, a spiritual insect, to participate in the competition. Ye Zhou's eyes were on the group of ice soul red-eyed spiders as big as goose eggs.

This ice soul red-eyed spider was hatched when Ye Zhou was living in seclusion in the valley, and the male and female spiders swallowed the bad eggs of the spiritual beetle.

As soon as this group of ice soul red-eyed spiders was released, they automatically split into two groups.

One group was ordinary, non-mutated ice soul red-eyed spiders with only the third level of Qi training. Perhaps because they felt the powerful aura emanating from the centipede, they did not dare to move and all huddled together.

The other wave was a few mutant ice-soul red-eyed spiders, whose cultivation had reached the eighth level of Qi training. Their white jade-like bodies were evenly covered with black threads, and their mouthparts were dark gold in color, which was different from those of ordinary spiders.

As soon as these mutant ice-soul red-eyed spiders left the insect-controlling bag, they looked at the spiritual insects released around them with a covetous look, as if they were ready to rush up and devour them at any time.

Since these mutant ice-soul red-eyed spiders were hatched, Ye Zhou had not yet tested the power of the mutant ice-soul red-eyed spiders. He casually placed a Qi training top-grade flying sword in front of the group of ice-soul red-eyed spiders.

With Ye Zhou's order, these ice-soul red-eyed spiders rushed to the flying sword at a very fast speed, opened their dark gold mouthparts, and bit the Qi training top-grade flying sword with a click. Instantly, densely packed small pits appeared on the flying sword.

"I didn't expect that this group of ice soul red-eyed spiders actually inherited the good teeth of the spirit beetle."

Ye Zhou put away his flying sword, put all the spirit insects into the insect control bag, and put the centipede and the mutated ice soul red-eyed spiders in another insect control bag.

Afterwards, Ye Zhou sorted out the items he got from some cultivators in the secret realm, selected the spiritual plants and elixirs he needed, and piled all the remaining items in a storage bag, entrusting Wanbao Auction House to auction them.

After dealing with these, Ye Zhou took a few elixirs, stabilized his cultivation in the small courtyard, and waited for the assessment of the Spirit Beast Sect in five days.

Time flies, and five days pass in a blink of an eye.

That morning, Ye Zhou had just finished meditating when he heard a crisp knock on the door outside the courtyard. Ye Zhou slightly tidied his clothes and strode out of the door. He had already removed his disguise and restored his original appearance according to the instructions of the Eighth Prince.

Outside the house was a carriage with a faint fragrance. The carriage was not decorated with any expensive and luxurious items, but it was made of precious Xiangyun Spirit Wood.

In front of the carriage were two giant shield red pupil beasts, which were as tall as cows and had a half-human-high hard stone shield erected on their necks.

The giant shield red pupil beast had a strong defense, a gentle personality, and a fast and steady running speed, so that the cultivators with status in the world of cultivation liked to use this beast to pull the carriage, and therefore the giant shield red pupil beast was very expensive in the world of cultivation.

Using this carriage to pick up Ye Zhou was enough to show that the eighth prince valued Ye Zhou very much.

The coachman with the sixth level of Qi training was standing respectfully beside the carriage. After seeing Ye Zhou coming out, the coachman hurriedly took a small stool made of Xiangyun Spirit Wood from the carriage and placed it in front of the carriage, waiting for Ye Zhou to get on the carriage.

As soon as Ye Zhou got on the carriage, he heard the driver outside the carriage say respectfully: "Sir, please take a rest in the carriage. I will take you to the Spirit Beast Sect's assessment site immediately."

As soon as the driver finished speaking, Ye Zhou heard a whirring sound from outside the carriage. He lifted the curtain and saw that the carriage was already moving at a high speed. The scenery on the roadside was rapidly receding. Ye Zhou couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "This giant shield red pupil beast is really worthy of its reputation."

In less than a quarter of an hour, the high-speed carriage squeaked and stopped. The driver jumped off the carriage, lifted the curtain, and said to Ye Zhou who was sitting in the carriage: "Sir, the Spirit Beast Sect's assessment site has arrived."

There was a commotion around, and it seemed that many cultivators had arrived.

Ye Zhou nodded, got up and got off the carriage. He casually took out a bottle of ordinary medicine from his storage ring and handed it to the driver. The driver took the medicine and bowed to Ye Zhou excitedly to thank him.

The Eighth Prince, who had been waiting here for a long time, came up with a smile and greeted Ye Zhou with a bow, saying: "Daoyou, I have registered for you, but I don't know your name. You need to go and register your name in person."

After that, the Eighth Prince led Ye Zhou through the sea of ​​people gathered by the cultivators and came to a wooden table in the front.

A middle-aged man dressed as a steward of the Spirit Beast Sect was sitting at a wooden table with a pen in his hand. He had a serious face, a small goatee, and a hint of his foundation-building great perfection. In front of him was a thick registration book with many names densely registered.

The middle-aged man nodded slightly to the Eighth Prince when he saw him. The Eighth Prince raised his hand and bowed to the middle-aged man, saying, "Uncle, this is the Taoist friend I told you about."

The middle-aged man glanced at Ye Zhou, flipped the registration book to the first few pages, pointed to a blank space, handed the pen in his hand to Ye Zhou and said lightly, "Fill in your name yourself."

Ye Zhou immediately took the pen and wrote down his real name. There are definitely countless people named Ye Zhou in the world. Any sect has thousands of disciples. I'm afraid there are dozens of people with the same name as him, and it won't attract attention, so Ye Zhou dared to write down his real name with confidence.

After Ye Zhou wrote down his name, the middle-aged man took out a token with numbers on it and handed it to Ye Zhou. He pointed to the dozens of arenas nearby and said, "Take your number cards. There's still some time before the competition starts. Choose a place and wait for your number to be called."

After that, the middle-aged man closed the registration book on the table and began to sit in meditation with his eyes closed.

The Eighth Prince took Ye Zhou away and said with a smile, "Brother Ye, don't blame me. My uncle is just like that. But he treats his juniors very well. If you have any problems in the Spirit Beast Sect in the future, you can ask my uncle for help. I have already told him."

Ye Zhou nodded and raised his hand to thank the Eighth Prince.

"Let's go. I have asked someone to take a place with a great view here. You can drink tea while waiting for the assessment to start."
