Chapter 8 On the eve of the competition, Qi training at the third level!
On this day, Ye Ling stopped going out to practice alone and suggested to the four people in Qingzhuyuan:
"In more than a month, the competition for the outer disciples will begin! If you want to practice in the Changxi wilderness, you can continue. I am going back to Yaogu Qingzhuyuan to practice in seclusion. If you have nothing important to do, please don't disturb me. Farewell!"
Ye Ling informed everyone and left calmly.
Meng Chang responded hurriedly: "That's right! We have been practicing in the Changxi wilderness for more than twenty days, and my cultivation is about to break through to the second level of Qi training. Hehe, I will go back to retreat too! Brother Ye is waiting for me. "
He Jingsheng nodded thoughtfully, and finally said firmly: "Yes! Seclusion! He swears that he will never leave seclusion until he reaches the third level of Qi training!"
Zishan and Suqin looked at each other and made up their minds: "Okay, as Senior Brother He said, we two sisters are practicing in seclusion and will not come out until the third level of Qi training."
In the following days, everyone stayed in seclusion all day long, and Yaogu Qingzhuyuan was much cleaner than before.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the day for the Yao Valley Outer Disciple Competition is getting closer and closer.
One day, the door of a room in Qingzhu Courtyard suddenly opened, and the first person to come out was He Jingsheng, who had reached the third level of Qi training!
After two or three days, Suqin and Zishan came out of seclusion one after another, and they both reached the third level of Qi training!
On the eve of the competition, Meng Chang came out of seclusion with his head downcast and a bitter look on his face. His cultivation was fixed at the second level of Qi training, which made him distressed.
Meng Changqiang smiled and congratulated the three senior brothers and sisters who had advanced to the third level of Qi training. He looked back at Ye Ling's closed door with a look of confusion on his face.
"Where's Brother Ye? Tomorrow is the competition for the outer disciples, and he's still in seclusion?"
Everyone was startled, Zishan was a little worried:
"Do you want me to call Brother Ye out? Don't miss the date of the outer sect competition!"
Su Qin said calmly: "Don't go! Just let Ye Ling stay in seclusion forever. With his ordinary qualifications, even if he stays in seclusion for another two months, he won't be able to reach the second level of Qi training! Can he go outside? It’s nothing to do with the disciple competition, at most I just went to watch the excitement.”
Meng Chang looked bitter and sighed: "Ahem, that's fine! We have thousands of outer disciples of Yaogu Sect. Every year, in the competition between outer disciples, only the top thirty can be promoted to inner disciples. ! Without the third level of Qi training, there is no chance at all! Hey, not just Brother Ye, even I can only join in the fun. It seems that I have to find another way to enter the inner sect."
At this moment, there was a deep cough outside Qingzhu Courtyard, and a figure in a moon-white satin gown that they were very familiar with appeared! After returning from the dusty journey, his whole body exudes an overwhelming evil spirit!
"Ye Ling!"
He Jingsheng raised his eyebrows and was shocked by the evil aura on Ye Ling's body! He quickly dispersed his consciousness and looked at Ye Ling carefully. Seeing that he was still at the first level of Qi training, he couldn't help but frown.
"Brother Ye! Didn't you go into seclusion? Where did you come from? Have you killed many monsters of the same level! Otherwise, this amazing evil aura wouldn't appear on your body!"
Zishan was also horrified by the evil Brother Ye, but when she saw Brother Ye's cultivation, she still sighed and showed great sympathy in her big eyes.
Meng Chang and Su Qin looked at Ye Ling, who seemed familiar yet strange at the same time, feeling a little lost. It seems that Ye Ling has more than just this evil spirit! It's a little more cold and a little more mysterious! It’s puzzling!
Ye Ling smiled calmly at them: "I have been out of seclusion for a long time. If I have nothing to do, I will go to Fengqiao Town or Changxi Wilderness to collect herbs to kill monsters! It's just that this evil aura on my body cannot be removed no matter how I cover it or clean it. It will gradually dissipate over time!”
Su Qin snorted coldly and said coldly: "You are smart! Knowing that it is hopeless to retreat to the second level of Qi training, you go outside to practice more. However, there is a two-level difference between the cultivation level of the first level of Qi training and the third level of Qi training. The difference in strength is huge! No matter how much you practice, you are no match for me! Even if you want to defeat Junior Brother Meng who is at the second level of Qi training, it will be even harder!"
Ye Ling sneered in his heart, but his expression remained calm and indifferent. He nodded and agreed.
How could they know! At the beginning of Ye Ling's retreat last month, by turning on the star crystal in the jade pendant of the Immortal Mansion, her cultivation soared from the second level of Qi training to the third level of Qi training in just a few hours!
At that time, Ye Ling was surprised to find that the boundary monument on the Xingxing Cliff of the Immortal Mansion showed his cultivation level at the third level of Qi training; his lifespan was four years longer than that at the second level, reaching eighty-eight; and the row of star crystals, Marked: Star Crystal, empty, nourishes the mind, recovery takes forty-five days. It was fifteen days longer than the thirty days of recovery at the second level of Qi training.
Therefore, if Ye Ling wanted to reach the fourth level of Qi training and enter the middle stage of Qi training, he would have to wait at least half a month for the competition between the outer disciples to be completed.
Even so, Ye Ling has consolidated the third level of Qi training in these days, constantly practicing in the Changxi wilderness, and obtained many top-quality magic weapons and spiritual weapons in Fengqiao Town Market, even at the expense of Buy a top-quality sapphire ring that resists spell attacks at a big price, and a Yunlan amulet that resists powerful attacks! It can be said that all the equipment on the body is top-notch!
In order to hide it on weekdays and use it instantly in battle, Ye Ling neither wore these top-quality equipment on his body nor put them in storage bags, but temporarily stored them in Xianfu Jade Perry! As long as your mind moves, you can equip it at any time!
The five people from Qingzhu Courtyard reunited. He Jingsheng, Suqin and Zishan all had the strength to challenge the top 30 in the outer disciples competition, so naturally they couldn't help but congratulate and encourage each other. Ye Ling looked calm, neither happy nor worried. Only Meng Chang frowned and took his leave first, saying that he would go back to the Meng family to see if there was any turnaround.
After he left, He Jingsheng smiled and said, "No need to ask, Brother Meng went back to the family to ask for help. Most likely he wanted to bribe a foundation building elder to see if he could be directly selected into the inner sect without passing the outer disciples competition."
Suqin immediately shook her head and questioned:
"How is it possible! According to the sect's conventions, before the outer disciples competition, the sect master and the elders must first check the spiritual root qualifications of the outer disciples. Among the eighty-one spiritual root attributes, only those with one spiritual root attribute exceeding forty points can not participate in the outer disciples competition. In the disciple competition of the Medicine Valley Sect, he was directly promoted to an inner disciple! I remember that Junior Brother Meng's highest earth spirit root attribute was only more than twenty points. Even if a certain elder was partial to him, he could not hide it from the master's eyes! "
Ye Ling smiled calmly: "Maybe Brother Meng is aiming to be a medicine boy for a certain foundation-building elder. In this case, he has a good chance of becoming an inner disciple!"
Everyone suddenly realized and nodded in agreement. After talking for a while, they all went back to the house to meditate and rest, striving to keep their physical strength at the peak state during the competition tomorrow.
Early the next morning, it was the day of the outer disciple competition of the Medicine Valley Sect.
More than a thousand outer disciples in the Medicine Valley, without any prior agreement, rushed into the Taoist altar in front of the sect's main hall from all directions!
It was not yet Chenshi, and thousands of outer disciples gathered on the vast Taoist altar, and hundreds of inner disciples who came to watch the excitement, waiting for the master and the elders to arrive.
Ye Ling, He Jingsheng, Suqin, and Zishan also squeezed in. Compared to Ye Ling's lowly cultivation level of the first level of Qi training, He Jingsheng and his two companions were in great glory.
Among the more than 1,000 outer disciples of Yaogu Sect, only more than 120 of them had reached the third level of Qi training, and Qingzhuyuan alone had three of them, enough to arouse the envy of fellow disciples around them!
Especially He Jingsheng, as the young master of the He family, he was handsome and extraordinary.
Many outer female disciples pointed at He Jingsheng and whispered to each other. They were very optimistic about the young master of the He family rushing into the top 30 of the outer disciples' competition. Some female cultivators even had a blush on their faces and came forward shyly to compliment him.
He Jingsheng naturally became very proud and overwhelmed. He planned to show off to his fellow disciples in Qingzhuyuan, but he saw Suqin and Zishan, who were also at the third level of Qi training, and even many inner disciples came to pursue him, and they all came forward to chat with him!
"Young man, please tell me the name of your junior sister. Can you please give me the name? She is just like a fairy, like an ice fairy!"
"May I ask how old this junior sister is? Wow, she is so pretty and cute! I am Yang Zhong, an inner sect disciple, and a descendant of the Yang family. I think your junior sister has the potential to compete for the top 30 in the outer sect competition, no, even the top 10! In the future, we brothers and sisters should get closer."
Suqin and Zishan's pretty faces sank and they looked unhappy when these inner sect disciples approached them. Suqin was used to being cold and frosty, and even the lively Zishan ignored them.
He Jingsheng sighed and thought to himself: "Comparing people will make you die, and comparing goods will make you still. I am the young master of the He family, how come there are no inner sect female cultivators who favor me? Even if there are only one or two of them, it would be good!"
But when he turned around and glanced at Ye Ling, who was like a green leaf in front of him, his confidence that had been hit returned instantly.
He Jingsheng smiled proudly and said, "Brother Ye, in today's outer sect disciple competition, your cultivation is too low, and you will obviously be eliminated in the first round. But it will be of great benefit to your future cultivation if you observe our fighting experience! Remember to cheer for me! After I join the inner sect, I will introduce you to some outer sect female disciples, hahaha!"
Ye Ling sneered in his heart, but his expression was calm and natural, neither happy nor angry, and he nodded indifferently. The only thing that attracted people's attention to Ye Ling was the amazing murderous aura emanating from his body, which was palpitating!
Even many outer sect disciples were frightened away by his murderous aura, and when they looked at Ye Ling's cultivation of the lowest level of Qi training, they all showed extremely confused and doubtful expressions on their faces.
At the time of Si, more than a dozen sword lights flew from the main hall of Yaogu Sect! It was the sect master and the elders who came to the Taoist altar!
Thousands of outer sect disciples on the Taoist altar were excited and excited, and their eyes showed extremely respectful expressions!
In their eyes, a strong person in the foundation building stage is out of reach!
However, a cold light flashed in Ye Ling's star-like eyes!
His eyes were fixed on a familiar figure of a middle-aged elder in green clothes, with thick eyebrows, broad eyes, and a square face. It was Zhou Chong, the old fox in the early stage of foundation building!
