Mortals' aspirations to cultivate immortality

Of course, in addition to those golden elixir masters, there were also a large number of foundation-building disciples participating in this competition.

However, these foundation-building disciples cannot even break through the opponent's pressure in front of Master Jindan, so naturally it is impossible for them to achieve any outstanding achievements.

So after the competition started, Lin Yi didn't even take a look.

It was not until ten days after the start of the competition that the top fifty places were decided, that Lin Yi came to the competition site.

"See the ancestor!"

Seeing Lin Yi arriving at the competition site, all the disciples and elders immediately saluted Lin Yi.

It feels good to have hundreds of thousands of people salute you.

Lin Yi waved his hand, and all the disciples and elders were immediately lifted up by Lin Yi's magic power.

After helping everyone up, Lin Yi immediately let the competition continue.

Liu Shaoting naturally participated in this competition, so the burden of maintaining the competition was given to Lin Yuanshan.

Seeing that Lin Yi had nothing to say, Lin Yuanshan continued to host the competition.

Just when he was about to announce the continuation, Lin Yi suddenly spoke up, interrupting Lin Yuanshan's words: "It's too slow to continue a one-on-one comparison like this."

"Qianqian, Bufan, help me!"

After hearing Lin Yi's words, Zhao Bufan and Huang Qianqian nodded immediately.

The Yin-Yang Pisces diagram appeared under Lin Yi's feet, and a terrifying mana burst out, directly covering the man who was fifty years older than before.

When Zhao Bufan and Huang Qianqian saw this, they also helped Lin Yi inject mana.

Soon, the endless mana separated those fifty before the competition, and the two were assigned together according to the list after the draw.

Twenty-five huge bubbles formed by magic were seen in the air. This was the battlefield for the final fifty contestants.

Seeing his masterpiece, Lin Yi nodded with great satisfaction: "Let's get started, no matter what, this barrier can't be broken even by a person at the peak of the middle stage of the Golden Core for a year."

When the disciples and elders in the bubble heard this, they immediately started fighting regardless.

For a moment, the colors of these bubbles became colorful, and those who were in low altitude couldn't even see what was going on inside.

Yes, this is a golden elixir level battle, and it is not something that can be seen clearly during the Qi refining stage.

These Qi-refining period disciples who came to watch the battle were just there to watch the fun.

Naturally, Lin Yi would not let these disciples in the Qi Refining Stage simply watch the excitement. He pinched the spell with his hand and injected a spell into the twenty-five bubbles. Soon the situation in the bubbles was revealed. come out.

Even those disciples in the Qi refining stage can clearly see what's going on inside.

For a time, there were countless exclamations.

It was obviously the first time for these disciples to see such a wonderful battle.

It's not that they haven't seen Jindan-level battles in the past, but what they saw were explosions one after another. They didn't know what happened immediately, and how could they see it so clearly like now.

Because the battlefield is limited to a bubble, even a battle at the Golden Core level cannot be fought slowly.

In the fastest game, the winner was decided in just one hour.

Lin Yi took a look and saw that it was a battle between that boy Tiesheng and a disciple of Huang Fengguan.

Tiesheng's cultivation has reached the peak of the early stage of the Golden Core. I'm afraid it won't be long before he can be promoted to the middle stage of the Golden Core. He will be a strong contender for the championship this time.

As for Lin Yi, he naturally hopes that Tiesheng can win the championship.

As the first to complete the battle, Lin Yi directly gave Tiesheng a privilege: a bye in the next round!

According to the rules of the competition, when there are odd numbers like this, the bye spots need to be drawn by lot.

But Lin Yi has already spoken, so even if someone is dissatisfied, they can only hold it in.

But soon the dissatisfied people were no longer dissatisfied.

Because this round had just ended, Lin Yi waved his hand and took the loser out of the bubbles. After that, the bubbles randomly merged together and entered the next round directly.

In this case, naturally the earlier the last game is played, the more advantageous it will be. After all, there will be more time to rest. Then it makes sense to give Tiesheng a bye.

After six games, there are still seven players left.

Lin Yi took a look and nodded with satisfaction.

The group of students he trained along the way did not let him down. Among the seven people who entered the top seven, five were from that group of students.

By this time, the disciples and elders of the remnants of the former Wei Kingdom finally understood why Lin Yi valued those students so much and appointed them to so many key positions.

Obviously, these people are like dragons and phoenixes among men.

Even among the golden elixirs under the age of 100 who were originally the proud ones, their performance was still so outstanding, which was enough to shut up many people.

After being satisfied, Lin Yi waved his hand, and the seven bubbles collided together, and soon one bubble was knocked out.

Lin Yi took a look and saw that it was Huo Ting.

This kid's luck has always been good. From being unknown to being remembered by Lin Yi, he then relied on his own hard work and fierceness to secure his position in the top five of the Star Class. His luck, talent, and hard work are all top-notch. .

In addition, now, the bye spot falls directly on him!

“I don’t know where it will go in the future.”

Lin Yi shook his head and randomly fused the remaining six bubbles, but a barrier was formed in the fused bubbles: "Start in two hours!"

Two hours later, the fighting continued.

Lin Yi silently watched the battle in the bubble. Among the remaining people, the one who interested Lin Yi the most was the disciple named Hu Botao.

This disciple has dual spiritual roots like Tie Sheng, and his cultivation is similar to Tie Sheng.

But he is a little immature in terms of combat experience. I think he is similar to the Saint Son of Ziyang Sect, who was spoiled and brought up in the sect.

But this person is still interesting, and he is improving very quickly!

Originally, he could reach this step purely relying on his own cultivation advantage.

But as he came into contact with more and more battles, his actual combat ability has greatly improved. At this time, when he was fighting against Rong Tianyou, who was extremely fierce and almost desperate, Hu Baitao was not at a disadvantage.

And as time went on, Hu Baitao began to suppress Rong Tianyou.

According to Lin Yi's calculation, Rong Tianyou is equivalent to more than two units, and Hu Baitao is equivalent to three units. The gap between the two is not that big.

If Hu Baitao faced Rong Tianyou at the beginning, Hu Baitao would definitely lose.

But Hu Baitao is a talent. He has improved in battle after battle. Now he can fight Rong Tianyou to a draw and gradually suppress him.

If such a person enters the Star Class and is cultivated by Lin Yi, the number one throne of the Star Class may not be Tie Sheng but him.

Unfortunately, in the stable environment of Huangfeng Temple, he has been spoiled.

But it is not too late. If he has no problem, Lin Yi does not mind giving him more opportunities.

Another day later, this round is finally over.

The last people left are Tie Sheng, Liu Shaoting, Huo Ting, and Hu Baitao.

Emotionally, Lin Yi naturally hopes that the last people left will be Tie Sheng, Liu Shaoting and Huo Ting.

But in a sense, Lin Yi also hopes that Hu Baitao can make it to the last step.

Even if he cannot win the championship, at least getting a place in the Nascent Soul Sequence is not bad.

But no matter what, one of these four people will miss the Nascent Soul Sequence.

After Lin Yi let the four people rest for a day, he randomly let the four bubbles merge.

The result was beyond Lin Yi's expectation. It turned out that Tie Sheng faced Hu Baitao and Liu Shaoting faced Huo Ting.

Well, Lin Yi didn't need to look at the result of this duel. It was obvious that Tie Sheng and Liu Shaoting won.

Although Hu Baitao grew up very fast, he was far behind in experience. He grew up in Huangfeng Temple, a Yuanying sect, and there was no war in Huangfeng Temple for nearly a hundred years, but Tie Sheng was different.

Although Tie Sheng came from Qingyang Academy, one of the top ten academies in the Qin Empire, his status was comparable to that of Huangfeng Temple, a Yuanying sect.

But Tie Sheng's growth experience can be said to have been fought all the way.

During the Qi Refining Period, Lin Yi paid great attention to their actual combat ability and kept fighting.

After the foundation building, they encountered a full-scale war between the Qin Empire and the Netherworld Ghost Cave, and fought all the way to the perfection of the foundation building.

That is, after becoming a Jindan Zhenren, Tie Sheng had fewer battles.

But experience is constantly accumulated, not to mention that he watched Lin Yi and his Jindan-level battles for decades.

So Tiesheng will win the battle between him and Hu Baitao!

As for Liu Shaoting and Huo Ting, it goes without saying.

As the leader of the Xingchen class, Liu Shaoting is not as good as Tiesheng. Even with the addition of new dual spiritual roots, Liu Shaoting has always occupied the position of the second and become the actual leader.

This is naturally related to Lin Yi and his preference for her, but who makes her likable?

As for Huo Ting, there is Rong Tianyou in front of him.

The final result is just as Lin Yi expected.

This round of battle ended with the victory of Tiesheng and Liu Shaoting.

Then the last round is Tiesheng vs. Liu Shaoting, and Hu Baitao vs. Huo Ting.

Lin Yi knows the result of this round of battle without watching it. Naturally, Tiesheng defeated Liu Shaoting, won the championship, and won the Thunder Fruit; then Hu Baitao defeated Huo Ting and got the last place in the Yuanying sequence.

Sure enough, there was no surprise.

After the result of the battle came out, Lin Yi took back the Thunder Fruit: "Tie Sheng, this Thunder Fruit was taken for you by this True Lord. When you need it in the future, just come to me anytime."

Although Tie Sheng was close to being invincible in the early stage of the Golden Core, he was only in the early stage of the Golden Core after all.

Even the True Lord of the Nascent Soul would be willing to snatch the Thunder Fruit, which was a chance for the Nascent Soul. Putting the Thunder Fruit on Tie Sheng would only bring him disaster.

Tie Sheng naturally understood this truth, and he had already had this idea before he won the championship. He immediately saluted Lin Yi respectfully: "Tie Sheng, thank you, Master."

"Yes." Lin Yi nodded, and then announced: "The Nascent Soul sequence is equivalent to the Saint Son of the Sect. The status in the sect is second only to the Nascent Soul Patriarch."

Second only to the Nascent Soul Patriarch, that is, it is almost the same as the true disciple of the Nascent Soul Patriarch.

Strictly speaking, the status of the Nascent Soul sequence is even higher than that of the Sect Master.

But now Liu Shaoting is both in the Nascent Soul sequence and the head of the sect, that is the first person under the Nascent Soul in the true sense.

After announcing the status of the Nascent Soul sequence, Lin Yi looked at the people present, and used his magic power mixed with his voice to say: "The head of the sect Liu Shaoting and the masters of each hall went deep into the netherworld to solve the problem of the foundation-building pill in the sect, and solved the problem of the foundation-building pill in the sect."

"Hiss--"

Hearing Lin Yi's words, everyone present, especially those Qi-refining disciples, couldn't help but take a breath.

Foundation-building pill, the original Huangfeng Temple could only provide one thousand foundation-building pills every year, which can be said to be too many monks and too little meat.

Because the number of foundation-building pills was too small, a large number of Qi-refining period disciples missed the best opportunity to build a foundation. On average, 70% to 80% of the disciples in the Qi Refining Stage, after reaching perfection in cultivation, delayed the foundation building time for ten to twenty years simply because of problems with the Foundation Establishment Pill!

One step at a time, one step at a time, the Qi refining period will be delayed by ten to twenty years. What about after the foundation is established?

For a time, countless Qi Refining Stage disciples looked at Lin Yi expectantly, hoping to hear better news.

Then, I heard Lin Yi say: "From now on, the disciples of my Qingyang Sect, after their cultivation reaches the Qi Refining Stage, can obtain a Foundation Building Pill from the sect regardless of any conditions. Moreover, every time Each disciple has the right to use contribution points to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill. The exchange price of the Foundation Establishment Pill in the Miscellaneous Palace is 10,000 contribution points per pill!"

Not all the disciples came to watch the competition, but Lin Yi used magic power when he announced the matter.

So as long as you are in the mountain gate, no matter where you are, you can hear this news.

For a time, cheers rang out from top to bottom in the sect.

Some thanked Lin Yi, some thanked the head master, and some thanked the masters of various halls.

As for the deacons and elders serving in various temples, their faces were quite ugly when they heard the news announced by Lin Yi.

They never thought that these palace masters, whom they looked down upon, would secretly accomplish a great thing and easily win the hearts and minds of the Qi Refining Stage disciples.

For now, this matter has not affected them.

As long as those disciples in the Qi Refining Stage build their foundation, it will definitely have a huge impact on them.

And what Lin Yi announced next made them feel even colder.

"We, the Qingyang Sect, will reward you for your merits." Lin Yi said: "As the biggest contributor to solving the problem of the Qingyang Sect's Foundation Establishment Pill, the leader Liu Shaoting will reward you with ten third-level high-quality clear water peach!"

The third level clear water spiritual peach is a spiritual fruit that breaks through from the middle stage of the golden elixir to the late stage of the golden elixir.

With ten third-level high-grade blue water spiritual peaches, Liu Shaoting can definitely break through to the late golden elixir stage as long as she reaches the peak of the middle stage of the golden elixir.

For a time, Liu Shaoting attracted countless envy, jealousy and hatred.

"And the other palace masters and elders who participated in this matter will be rewarded with ten third-level mid-grade blue water spiritual peaches!"

The ten third-level high-quality clear water peaches may not have caused much commotion, after all, they were only given to one person.

But now, these third-level mid-grade clear water peach has been rewarded to dozens of people!

Ancestor Qingyang must have an orchard at home, and he can actually have so many clear water peaches.

Look at the remaining clear water peaches in the Miscellaneous Hall. My dear, there are not as many clear water peach in the miscellaneous hall as the ones rewarded this time!

For a time, many people began to have different thoughts.

"Then, the sect competition is over." Lin Yi said: "Next, I hope that all disciples and elders will work together to develop our Qingyang Sect. If you have anything, feel free to come to me or the master of the Law Enforcement Hall. In the past two days, We won’t be closed down for ten years!”

This Qingyang Sect is not a sea of ​​lava. In the sea of ​​lava, with the huge Huorong Emperor, Lin Yi can retreat in peace and ignore foreign affairs. But this is not possible in Qingyang Sect, he must protect his Taoist companion.

Therefore, before Shangguan Yue'er and the others came out of seclusion, Lin Yi was averse to the cold and Zhao Bufan would not go into seclusion.

After hearing Lin Yi's words, many disciples and elders who had strange thoughts suddenly felt cold in their hearts.

I thought Lin Yi had noticed something and said this as a warning to them.

For a moment, I hurriedly gave up those thoughts that I shouldn’t have.

The big competition was successfully concluded, and naturally the next step was the important matter of recruiting disciples.

However, Lin Yi told Liu Shaoting to take it easy for the time being and wait until Master Huang Feng had integrated the industries and vassal forces within their sect's sphere of influence.

As for now, Lin Yi said: "Since we have already said that we have solved the problem of the Foundation Establishment Pill, we cannot be a person who breaks his word."

"During this period, you first need to completely resolve the matter regarding the Foundation Establishment Pill."

"Yes, Master." After Liu Shaoting received the order, she immediately went to do her own business.

Calm returned to Qingyang Peak again. As for Huang Qianqian, that girl had already gone to the sect's spirit beast garden.

Huangfeng Temple is close to the Luofeng Mountains, so naturally there are many spiritual beasts with Phoenix bloodline bred in this spirit beast park.

Unfortunately, these spiritual beasts contain too little Phoenix blood, and the highest level does not reach 10%.

That's why when Huang Xiaoya appeared in the Luofeng Mountains, she attracted so many Huangfengguan monks.

Obviously, their main purpose is to capture Huang Xiaoya as a breeding beast, trying to cultivate more spiritual beasts with Phoenix bloodline.

It turned out that Huang Xiaoya was a trap, and Huang Fengguan paid the price of two Nascent Soul Lords.

Not many people have seen Huang Qianqian's true form, and her presence in the sect is not high, and few people know about her relationship with Lin Yi.

But everyone knows that this is a genuine Nascent Soul Lord!

So when Huang Qianqian arrived, the entire disciples and elders of the Spirit Beast Garden were frightened.

Because when they were in the forbidden area, the remnants of Wei State did not have a spirit beast garden, so when Lin Yi originally appointed him, he did not appoint a palace master to manage the spirit beasts.

Therefore, the person in charge of the Spirit Beast Garden is one of the few people who has not been replaced.

"Ancestor, what are you doing in the Spirit Beast Garden?" Zhang Zhenqing, the elder in charge of the Spirit Beast Garden, asked Huang Qianqian very respectfully.

Although he didn't know what was going on with Huang Qianqian, Zhang Zhenqing still remembered the scene of Huang Qianqian fighting against Huang Feng Zhenjun.

Those disciples in the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages thought that Lin Yi was the strongest in the sect, but only they, the Jindan Zhenren, knew that the strongest in the sect was Huang Qianqian.

Although he didn't understand why Huang Qianqian was not the head of the sect, it didn't prevent Zhang Zhenqing from being respectful to Huang Qianqian.

"Can't you come and see if you have nothing to do?" Huang Qianqian ignored Zhang Zhenqing's thoughts: "This aunt is just here to see, you go and do your own things, don't bother me!"

"Okay." Zhang Zhenqing left in a hurry, not wanting to bother Huang Qianqian any more.

As for Huang Qianqian, she was wandering around the Spirit Beast Garden with nothing to do.

Spirit beasts are actually considered as demon beasts, but after being domesticated by human cultivators, their temperaments and tempers have become much more restrained, and they no longer look as bloodthirsty and brutal as demon beasts.

Like Huang Qianqian and the other two little ones, they can barely be considered as spirit beasts.

Although spirit beasts have become much gentler, they are still demon beasts at heart.

After Huang Qianqian entered the spirit beast garden, several terrifying birds immediately rushed towards her.

For a moment, the Qi training disciples who were watching over the terrifying birds were so scared that they almost screamed.

These disciples had always been in the spirit beast garden. Not to mention knowing Huang Qianqian, they even knew Lin Yi and Zhao Bufan.

So when they saw Huang Qianqian, a little girl of six or seven years old, being attacked by those terrifying birds with bad tempers, and they were too late to rescue her, they were so scared that their legs went limp.

Looking at the appearance of this little girl, she is a typical child from a wealthy or noble family.

If something happens, the disciples who are watching over the terrifying birds will probably be buried with her!

However, the next scene completely overturned their three views.

The moment the first terrifying bird came in front of the little girl, the little girl grabbed the terrifying bird's neck.

"Humph, you dare to provoke even my grandma, you have never died, right?" Huang Qianqian snorted, and a trace of breath leaked out.

The other terrifying birds sensed Huang Qianqian's breath, and they were frightened and lay on the ground in an instant, looking at Huang Qianqian tremblingly.

As for the terrifying bird caught by Huang Qianqian, despair flowed directly in its eyes.

Birds like them who have little intelligence act almost entirely on instinct.

But it is instinct that makes them more clearly understand what the pressure of the superior is.

After sensing Huang Qianqian's breath, these terrifying birds are naturally extremely afraid.

Seeing this, the disciples hurried over.

Seeing that Huang Qianqian was fine, they were relieved. One of the female cultivators who looked to be in her thirties squatted in front of Huang Qianqian and said gently: "Little sister, this is the Spirit Beast Garden, not a place to play."

"Whose child are you? Sister will take you back."

When saying these words, these disciples were really curious about why Huang Qianqian appeared here.

When Huangfeng Temple was just renamed Qingyang Sect, the mortals living in the mountain gate, except for a few direct relatives, had been cleared out of the mountain gate.

And they all knew the children near the Spirit Beast Garden, but they had never seen one who was so good-looking and had such an outstanding temperament.

Huang Qianqian heard this and looked at these Qi Refining disciples with some amusement: "I am from Lin Yi's family."

"Lin Yi?"

The few people looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

One of them said: "I guess they are those who were originally from Qingyang Sect."
