Chapter 97 A Visitor Arrives From Afar
Obviously, people from other peaks had come here early. After Li Wuyi found an open space, he led everyone to land, then collected the scroll and walked towards the crowd. There were seven or eight Jindan elders standing in front, followed by more than 40 foundation-building cultivators, and more than 100 Qi Condensation disciples behind.
The eight elders in the front were talking in a low voice. The leader was Peng Wuxing, the head of the sect's Xingtang, the beautiful woman Li Feng, the head of the Buli Peak, and the Feng surnamed scholar head of the Lingchong Peak. The head of the Four Symbols Peak was a white-haired old man, more than a foot tall, serious and majestic. The rest should be the elders of each peak. Li Yan didn't know them. Yan Longzi didn't come this time unexpectedly. He was the head of Laojun Peak and the head of the sect.
Li Wuyi turned around and said a few words to Li Yan, then took Wei Chituo, Yun Chunqu, and Gong Chenying to walk behind a group of Jindan elders, while Li Yan walked alone to the group of about 100 Qi Condensation cultivators.
Li Yan glanced at the foundation-building group and soon saw Zhao Min's tall and slender figure. Since they came later, Zhao Min had already noticed Xiaozhufeng and his group. When she saw Li Yan looking at her, her face was still cold, and she just nodded to him imperceptibly. Li Yan withdrew his gaze with a smile in his eyes. Their movements were very concealed, and even Li Changting standing next to Zhao Min didn't notice it. She couldn't notice it either. At this moment, she was staring at Li Wuyi and his group walking towards this side with great interest.
Li Yan walked to the back of the Qi Condensation Stage disciples. Many people had seen him. Some nodded to him with a smile, some were disdainful, and some were full of hostility in their eyes. After Li Yan nodded and greeted some people, he ignored the unfriendly eyes and walked to the side.
When he came over just now, he felt a few cold eyes from the Qi Condensation cultivators. He knew without looking that they were probably disciples from Lingchong Peak or other peaks who were on good terms with Zhou Guaner. Zhou Guaner was not selected into the 108 people this time, and it was said that he held a grudge against him. Some people said that Li Yan's poison affected his performance later.
There are still some people who treat him well, such as Du Sanjiang from Sixiang Peak, Lv Qiutong from Laojun Peak, Senior Brother Wu, the horse-faced black-skinned young man who brought him into the sect, and Senior Brother Yu, the gentle young man who took care of his injuries. As for the two people from Lingchong Peak, Li Yan was only familiar with them at first, because they were the first people he saw when he woke up, and he also wanted to get some information about Zhili Dushen from Li Yan. In fact, Li Yan had no bad impression of them. On the contrary, he had a conversation with them under the crystal screen during the break of the competition last time, and learned that the horse-faced young man Senior Brother Wu and the fat monk Senior Brother Lu also saved him back to the sect. Senior Brother Wu looked fierce and was not good at talking. After talking to Li Yan for a few words, he stared at the crystal screen again. Li Yan felt that he was the kind of person with an upright character. As for Senior Brother Lu, the slightly fat young man, who failed to enter the 108-person team, he gave Li Yan the impression of being extremely slippery.
These three people were also very impressed with Li Yan.
They were the ones who brought Li Yan into the sect. They were one of the few people who knew about Li Yan's poisonous body. They were also surprised to see that Li Yan could crookedly enter the team of 108 people. Among the three of them, only the horse-faced black-skinned young man Brother Wu had the hope of entering the team of 108 people. The other two were extremely difficult. However, the gentle young man Brother Yu got a strange brocade handkerchief when he went out to practice with others half a year ago. This brocade handkerchief was breathtaking. Even if he was one or two small realms higher, he could not resist it. He borrowed this brocade handkerchief and actually entered the team of 108 people. Li Yan was also afraid of his brocade handkerchief, but fortunately, they never drew each other.
These people were standing with the cultivators of their own peaks, talking in low voices. When they saw Li Yan, they smiled and gestured, but did not take the initiative to come over.
Li Yan seemed extremely lonely. There were at least 20 people in each of the three peaks, and he was the only one in Xiaozhu Peak, so he simply found a corner to stand and began to look around.
Li Yan looked towards the center of the square, where a huge monument stood. Last time, Li Yan was hit hard before he could see it clearly. Of course, this monument would not intentionally hurt anyone today. The stone monument was about three or four feet wide and more than twenty feet high. There were no words or pictures on it. At this time, the color of its body could not be seen clearly, because the colorful light was flowing on it, which gave it a sacred feeling. A faint pressure came from inside, and it swept towards Li Yan's Qi Condensation disciples and foundation building disciples from time to time, as if it was intentionally or unintentionally shocking them. This made Li Yan speechless. As Lin Daqiao said, the spirit inside was an immature child, and now it was showing its strength to people who were weaker than itself.
In the rest of the open space in the square behind the stone monument, Li Yan saw a path in the distance extending from a corner of the square to the top of the mountain.
While the disciples were talking in low voices and Li Yan was looking around the square, among the eight elders in front, Elder Peng and the white-haired master of the Four Elephants Peak looked at each other first, and after a moment, the other six also had sharp eyes. Elder Peng shouted in a low voice, "Here we come."
He was at the front and the others followed, all soaring into the air, flying straight up to a hundred meters in the air, and then quietly hovering there, their eyes all looking in the same direction.
The attention of the people below was attracted, and the conversation began to slowly subside. First, you looked at me, I looked at you, and then they all released their spiritual senses towards the elders' gazes, but no matter how they released their spiritual senses and used their eyesight, they could not find anything. They couldn't help but whispered. The elders above heard the low whispers below, and some people frowned, but no one spoke to stop them. Even Peng Wuxing just glanced down and didn't say anything.
A dozen breaths later, Li Yan found that among the group of foundation-building cultivators, there were also a few people who looked in that direction with doubtful expressions. These people were Li Wuyi, Bailiyuan, Wang Tian and several other false elixir realm cultivators, while the others still looked at a blank look. After a few more breaths, Wei Chituo, Gan Shi and other foundation-building great perfection cultivators also seemed to have a sense and looked at the horizon. The rest of the cultivators were still releasing their spiritual senses to scan continuously.
At this time, Li Yan had already collected his spiritual consciousness. Although he was confident that the spiritual consciousness he cultivated with the Guishui Sutra was far superior to that of his peers, he also knew that his spiritual consciousness was at most about the middle stage of the tenth level of the Condensation Stage. Such a vast world was not as far as the eyes could see. While he was thinking, more than a dozen breaths passed, and suddenly someone shouted in a low voice, "Someone is coming." Li Yan also looked up and saw a dazzling light ball shooting towards this side at the end of the sky. The speed was very fast. In just a blink of an eye, the dazzling light became much brighter, and the size quickly increased by one or two times. Li Yan estimated that the dazzling light ball flew at least a dozen miles in his blink of an eye. If you calculate it this way, if one breath is three or four blinks, how abnormal are the spiritual consciousness of those Jindan elders? Wouldn't they have discovered it at least four hundred miles away? And for the eldest brother who is at the fake Dan realm, the spiritual consciousness should have discovered it when it was about one or two hundred miles away.
After a few breaths, the dazzling ball of light flew over. This ball of light had grown to a width of twelve or thirteen feet and a length of about a hundred feet. The huge ball of light suddenly stopped when it was a hundred feet away from the elder of the Wuliang Sect, and then a melodious voice came from it, "It turned out to be Elder Peng. I have kept you Taoist friends waiting for a long time. Please forgive me." The light of the ball of light also slowly faded. After a while, a huge boat floating in the air appeared in front of Li Yan and his friends.
At this time, fifteen Taoists wearing uniform green Taoist robes stood on the bow of the boat. There were men and women, old and young. The powerful pressure on these people showed that they were all Jindan cultivators, and behind them was a dense group of young Taoists, all of whom had solemn expressions and imposing manners. The voice just now was made by a middle-aged Taoist in the bow of the boat.
The Taoist priest was seven feet tall, with eight-color eyebrows, bright eyes, a nose like a hanging gallbladder, a mouth like a single pearl, and a face like a crown of jade. He was about middle-aged, about forty years old, but still had a jade-like appearance, and was indeed a good-looking person.
"Oh, I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be the immortal Hang Wu of Taixuan Sect. I haven't seen you for decades. You have reached the Golden Elixir Great Perfection." Peng Wuxing looked at him with an emotionless and indifferent look, and just bowed and said lightly.
"Haha, Elder Peng, you still look like you don't want to entertain guests. If my cultivation can be compared with Brother Peng, you have entered the Golden Elixir Great Perfection for many years. I think it is just around the corner to impact the Nascent Soul. I congratulate you on this first, haha." The immortal Hang Wu smiled and had no dissatisfaction.
"Then let's go down and open the secret realm." Peng Wuxing didn't want to say much. He just nodded to the other cultivators. The other elders behind him smiled and nodded to the group of green-robed Taoist priests who were leading the group. Even the beautiful woman Li Fengzhu, who always liked to speak, just nodded to the others with a smile on her face. However, although she just smiled, some of the young cultivators on the other side blushed. Among them, there were two or three young Jindan cultivators. Judging from their appearance, they must have condensed Jindan in recent years. The foundation-building and Qi-condensing cultivators behind them were even more unbearable.
"Hmph" A slight cold snort came from the side of Hang Wuxianchang. It was a female Taoist priest with chicken skin and gray hair. Her wrinkled face showed dissatisfaction, and her small eyes looked at the beautiful woman Li Fengzhu with disdain. Her cold snort was not loud, but it sounded like a thunderclap in the ears of the people of Taixuan Sect, which immediately made many people sober up. They couldn't help but dodge with shameful eyes and dared not look again.
The head of Li Feng swung his plump body, chuckled, and flew down with Elder Peng like a willow leaf.
Immortal Hang Wu smiled, as if he didn't see it, and whispered to the people behind him, "Okay, let's go down too. I think the Pure Land Sect has also reached the Ten-Step Courtyard. I think the passage over there has been opened. Let's go there first." Immortal Hang Wu smiled and fell to the ground first. A dozen Jindan cultivators beside him also fell to the ground one after another, and then about a hundred Taoists fell to the huge square.
Li Yan stood below, listening to a few words of dialogue above, and he also knew it in his mind. It seems that the four major sects entered through two entrances. The Pure Land Sect entered through the Ten-Step Courtyard, and the Taixuan Sect came from the Wuliang Sect.
He didn't see the expression of Li Fengzhu because he was standing behind. But when Li Fengzhu flew into the air, he certainly saw the enchanting figure. Although he didn't see her face, the figure and the whiteness under the hem of her robe made him feel a little moved. Then he quickly calmed down and cursed himself for being shameless. In fact, he didn't want to do that. He was a real young man with blood and vitality. It was good that he didn't bleed from his nose on the spot. In fact, he was not the only one who was so miserable.
After everyone landed, the leader of Taixuan Sect, Hang Wuxian, collected the giant flying boat, and Li Yan was surprised by the simple process of entering the secret realm. After the Jindan elders of both sides whispered a few times, five Jindan elders from each side stood in front of the stone tablet, as if they were about to open the passage. Si Hao had no intention of letting the Foundation Establishment and Qi Condensation cultivators of both sides communicate here. They should be anxious to enter the secret realm and reunite with the other two factions. Of course, there wouldn't be a bloody scene where as soon as the two sides meet, one of the cultivators would speak wildly and provoke the other, and the two sides would act as if they were about to start a fight.
