The Path to Immortality

"What a pity!"

The moment he saw Miao Youfang also showing off a high-grade magic weapon, Fang Ping realized that there was no longer any suspense about the ownership of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The result was just as he expected.

Liu Wuchen tried his best to knock Miao Youfang off the ring and won the victory, but he was already exhausted.

Even after half a day of training, there is no way he can be the opponent of Ji Hongling who is waiting for work.

In the final decisive battle, perhaps to express his dissatisfaction, or perhaps not wanting to humiliate himself, Liu Wuchen simply didn't even go to the ring, and let Ji Hongling take the top spot without any bloodshed, and received the reward of the Foundation Establishment Pill!

It also brought a seemingly unsatisfactory end to this war that had attracted the attention of countless outer disciples.

Fortunately, even though Liu Wuchen was in second place, he still had a [Purple Sun Pill] to take. Even though it is not as good as the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is still a magic elixir that can increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment by 10%, and it is still hard to find.

In addition, the second place on the top list can also break the rules and enter the inner gate.

From today on, the original three outer sect heroes will probably cease to exist and will soon be replaced by new monks.

As for the ranking on the sub-list, Fang Ping deliberately concealed his inferiority and was not included in the list in the end.

He is quite satisfied with his performance. He will neither fall into the sight of the higher-ups of the sect nor be looked down upon by other outer sect disciples.

As for the failure to get the spirit stone and elixir rewards, with his current income from refining Yuan Yuan Dan, plus the storage bag of the owner of the Water Mansion that he obtained not long ago, this is enough.

The top spot on the secondary list was won by Xie Changyuan, a sixth-level qi-training monk with three spiritual root qualifications and 16 years of experience.

Although this person won the first place and received a lot of benefits, as well as the most valuable spirit pool tempering reward, he was not too excited or excited.

Between his eyebrows, there was a solemnity and worry that could not be concealed.

It seems that he also heard some rumors, but after weighing it, he finally chose to fight.

On the contrary, some of the disciples ranked relatively low on the sub-list were beaming with joy and happily counting their gains. Obviously, they still didn't know what this competition meant.

………

Two days later.

Fang Ping, Yan Xu, Gongsun Qing and others gathered in Liu Wuchen's room.

As outer disciples, monks in the late stage of Qi training and monks in the early and middle stages of Qi training are obviously treated differently.

The courtyard where Liu Wuchen lived was obviously much more spacious than Fang Ping's small courtyard. Since there were not many disciples nearby, the aura concentration was slightly higher.

But this is all in the past.

After today, Liu Wuchen will remove his identity as an outer sect disciple and move Luo Yunfeng into the inner sect, becoming a true disciple of the Luoyang Sect.

This is something that any outer disciple can only dream of.

Even for Liu Wuchen, it was a kind of comfort.

Because of this, although two days had passed since the competition, Liu Wuchen was still worried about missing the Foundation Establishment Pill, but in the face of the junior brothers and sisters who came to congratulate and see him off, he still managed to cheer up and make a repayment. An expression of joy.

"Come on, everyone, raise your glasses together and drink this cup of spiritual wine together!"

Sitting at the head of the banquet, Liu Wuchen was the first to raise his glass.

When he set out to hunt the Black Lin Jiao, Liu Wuchen had promised to serve wine to everyone to celebrate when he came back. Unfortunately, due to an unexpected incident that resulted in the death and injury of several disciples, and being busy building the Black Dragon Scissors and preparing for the competition, there was no time to take care of this matter.

This time I just made up for it.

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Liu!"

"Congratulations, senior brother, for becoming an inner disciple!"

"As long as you are rich and noble, don't forget each other."

Fang Ping and others either sincerely or half-jokingly joined in the toast.

For a time, the banquet was filled with people drinking and drinking, and the atmosphere was quite cheerful and harmonious.

Before I knew it, it was getting dark outside.

Seeing that the wine was about to end, Liu Wuchen stood up and bowed to everyone, saying: "In this competition, I failed to win the Foundation Establishment Pill. It is not a crime of war. Everyone has helped me, Liu Look in your eyes. Even if I enter the inner gate, our friendship will not be broken."

"If you have anything to do in the future, you can visit me at the inner gate. I will send someone to inform you of the specific address of the cave after choosing it."

"As for the original trading meeting, after I leave, Gongsun Qing and Dong Xiangtian can jointly host it. Whoever advances to the later stage of Qi training first will be the next initiator of the party."

"Also, about the outer door..."

After a detailed and thoughtful explanation, Liu Wuchen made some necessary arrangements for the situation after he left.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, the banquet and farewell really came to an end.

Just as everyone stood up and left one after another, Liu Wuchen suddenly called out to Fang Ping alone.

"Senior Brother Liu, is there anything else I need to tell you?"

After the others left, Fang Ping asked with some confusion.

Ordinary things can be said directly at the banquet.

Calling yourself alone, is there something unspeakable?

Just as he was muttering in his heart, Liu Wuchen smiled slightly and said: "Junior Brother Fang, don't think too much. I asked you to stay alone. I don't have anything to ask for your help. I just feel that you are the next best person in our circle. It’s just people who may have entered the inner gate.”

"I?"

Fang Ping looked surprised and glanced at the messy banquet table next to him, wondering if he wanted to shake his chopsticks to the ground.

The problem is that there’s no thunder outside right now!

Liu Wuchen nodded and said seriously: "Gongsun Qing, Dong Xiangtian and others, although their strength and realm are stronger than yours, they have not been able to advance to the fifth level of Qi training within ten years of entering the sect. Unless you encounter another grand event like the sect competition, your future prospects are doomed to be limited."

"The most likely result is that you will have no hope of building a foundation, stay in the outer sect and become a deacon, or be sent to the market or the lower house."

"On the contrary, you, my junior brother, although you are only at the fourth level of Qi training now, you have only been in the sect for seven or eight years, and you have some attainments in alchemy, so you still have a good chance of becoming an inner sect disciple."

"I have a hunch that we will meet again in the inner sect in two years."

Liu Wuchen said so much, Fang Ping could no longer be modest, and clasped his fists and said: "Thank you for your good words, Senior Brother Liu, I will try my best."

Liu Wuchen patted his shoulder and handed him a token with his own magic power and name.

"If you have any problem, you can come visit me with the token. If you encounter any trouble, you can also show this token. I can't say it will be useful, but it may be able to help you at any time."

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Fang Ping put away the token and thanked Liu Wuchen for his kindness.

After finishing the last thing in the outer sect, Liu Wuchen looked back at the familiar courtyard.

"It's been a long time, and I'm in the outer sect of Luoyang Sect!"

He sighed lightly, with a complicated expression, standing with his hands behind his back, and fell into a long silence.

Witnessing this scene, Fang Ping clasped his fists and bowed, and left silently.

………

The fact that Liu Wuchen was promoted to the inner sect caused a heated discussion among the outer sect disciples.

But no matter how hot the topic is, it will soon return to silence as people leave.

Just one month later, few people in the outer sect talked about it again. The discussion topics of the disciples turned back to eternal matters such as cultivation, spirit stones, and resources.
