Chapter 158 Dao Order

Soon, the black cloud vortex began to dim, and the exit of the cave was about to close.

At this time, a light blue figure shot out from the black cloud vortex at the last moment it disappeared. After landing, a short-haired young man with regular features and fair skin appeared. It was Xiao Lin.

Luo Shuang's tense face finally relaxed when Xiao Lin came out, and a smile appeared on her face, which made Luo Shou next to him sigh in his heart.

As soon as Xiao Lin came out of the cave, he felt the solemn atmosphere in the valley and his face changed slightly.

He glanced at the many cultivators in the valley with a rough look, and his face showed a surprised expression. The entrance of the cave behind him had been closed, and now there were only seven or eight hundred Qi Refining cultivators standing in the valley.

Compared with the tens of thousands of people who went in, the survivors were less than one in ten, which made Xiao Lin secretly amazed that the cave trial was indeed cruel, and more than nine thousand people died in the cave.

Xiao Lin also saw Luo Shou and his sister. He nodded to Luo Shou and cast his eyes on a graceful figure not far away.

The white-robed woman had come to the entrance of the valley and was saying something to the middle-aged cultivator in the void. In the void, the four people beside the middle-aged cultivator were also listening quietly. After a cup of tea, the white-robed woman stopped.

She walked to the side and stood silently, and the four women who followed her into the cave also stood behind her, silent.

In the void, the five Jindan ancestors seemed to be arguing about something, but although everyone could see the five people's lips moving, even accompanied by some body language, no sound came out. They knew that this was a soundproof ban set by several Jindan ancestors, blocking the sound from coming out.

Everyone stood quietly, waiting for the five people in the void to finish their conversation.

After half an hour, the five Jindan ancestors finished their conversation, and the voice of the middle-aged cultivator also rolled down.

"First of all, I congratulate you all. Being able to walk out of the cave alive has proved your strength. The rules of this cave trial are the same as in previous years. We will send disciples from our sect to search your bags. All purple spiritual flowers must be handed in."

After a pause, the cultivator surnamed Gu continued: "However, this time the cave was opened, I think you all know that Fengbo Water Palace suddenly appeared, and six spiritual tools and a magic weapon came out of it. That magic weapon was obtained by my disciple. As for the other six spiritual tools, the people who got them are among you."

Hearing this, there was a commotion among the many cultivators below, and some of them even changed their faces and became extremely ugly.

Although Xiao Lin's expression did not change, he was also uneasy in his heart. Some of his valuables were put into the spiritual wood space, and the three-yuan magic flag he got was also put into the spiritual wood space. The reason why he did this was to prevent being searched after leaving the cave.

In Xiao Lin's opinion, since the five major sects attach so much importance to the purple spirit flower and monopolize the opening of the cave, they will naturally not allow anyone to take the purple spirit flower away from here.

However, Xiao Lin is worried that the secret of his spiritual wood space will be discovered under the spiritual awareness of the Jindan stage cultivator. Once the spiritual wood space is discovered, he will be in great danger.

Although he is worried, Xiao Lin can only stand silently and leave it to fate.

After the cultivator surnamed Gu glanced at everyone, he smiled and said, "But don't worry, you get the spiritual weapon because of your chance. We are not going to rob you of your things."

Hearing this, some people below were slightly relieved.

"But." The following words of the cultivator surnamed Gu made them feel relieved again.

"If anyone among you has obtained a spiritual weapon and also obtained a purple spiritual flower, then he is naturally someone from my five major sects. It is your good fortune to obtain a spiritual weapon. If the person who obtained a spiritual weapon did not obtain a purple spiritual flower, hehe, it is better to hand over the spiritual weapon obediently."

As soon as the cultivator surnamed Gu finished speaking, a big man among the many cultivators suddenly jumped into the air and flew out of the valley. Moreover, because he happened to be standing not far from the cultivators in the foundation-building stage, he actually crossed the defense line of the disciples of the five major sects.

However, one of the five cultivators in the foundation-building stage snorted coldly, shook his finger at the cultivator who flew away, and a golden light suddenly burst out from his finger, and it flashed away.

The cultivator who escaped was immediately pierced through from behind by this golden light. After falling to the ground, he did not even escape his soul, and his body and soul were destroyed.

Seeing this scene, all the cultivators who came out of the cave showed horrified expressions. After killing the escaped person, the foundation-building cultivator gently waved and took out a long rope with a bright green light from his bag.

"Since you have obtained it, it is also your opportunity. This spiritual weapon will be rewarded to you." The Jindan cultivator surnamed Gu glanced at the foundation-building cultivator and said lightly.

Hearing this, the other four Jindan cultivators showed dissatisfaction on their faces, but it was fleeting. After all, as Jindan cultivators, they could not lose face to argue with a junior in the foundation-building stage. Of course, the main reason was that this person was a disciple of Tianyun Pavilion.

Upon hearing this, the foundation-building cultivator showed great joy on his face, and hurriedly bowed to the five people in the void to express his gratitude, while the other four foundation-building cultivators beside him all showed strange expressions of envy and regret.

"However, you are not allowed to keep the purple spirit flower privately. Regardless of whether you choose to join our five major sects in the end, you must hand it over. If someone keeps it privately and is found out, I think you can imagine the consequences."

"Okay, I have said everything here. The rest will be handled by fellow Daoist Shangguan, right?" After saying this, the Jindan cultivator surnamed Gu glanced at Shangguan Jinluan beside him, but he kept silent.

Shangguan Jinluan was not polite. After bowing to the five people, he began to give orders to the dozens of cultivators from the five major sects.

All the Qi-refining cultivators who came out of the cave were also required to line up in ten long lines and begin to be searched.

In this situation, naturally no one dared to do the stupid thing of resisting, not to mention the five foundation-building cultivators who were eyeing at the valley entrance, the five golden elixir ancestors in the void were like five swords of heavenly punishment, always suspended above everyone's head.

The people who searched everyone's storage bags included the five major sects. It can be imagined that these five major sects did not trust each other.

A cultivator came to the front of several searchers, took out a jade box from the storage bag and handed it over.

One of them took the jade box, scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and then nodded to the other four people, and the man also cooperated to untie the storage bag on his waist and handed it over.

After the search, it was confirmed that there was no private collection of purple spirit flowers. The person was recorded by a person next to him, and then a sect entry token was issued, and the back of the token was also engraved with the person's name.

Before Xiao Lin participated in the cave trial, he learned in Xueling Immortal City that this token, called the Dao Order, was one-to-one, which meant that any cultivator who handed in the Purple Spirit Flower would be given this Dao Order. Once the Dao Order was activated by the cultivator, it would be impossible to modify it.

The Dao Order contained the aura of the person who activated the Dao Order, and with the Dao Order, one could go to the entrance points of the major sects in Xueling Immortal City, and directly join the five major sects with the Dao Order.

Of course, for sects like Qianfu Sect and Tianyun Pavilion, even if they entered the sect with the Dao Order, they still had to undergo a series of tests, and only after passing them could they officially join the sect.

Those cultivators who did not get the Purple Spirit Flower showed envy on their faces when they saw those cultivators who got the Dao Order, and the cultivators who got the Dao Order would immediately choose to input mana into it and activate the runes on the back of the Dao Order after receiving it.

Only after the Dao Order is activated can it be completely bound to one's identity. Even if others intercept and kill him halfway and get the Dao Order, it is useless. Moreover, if a cultivator gets the Dao Order but it is not his own, he will not be able to join the five major sects.

He will also face the pursuit of the five major sects. After all, if he gets the Dao Order, he will be a candidate disciple of the five major sects. It is a capital crime that will destroy both his body and soul. Few people can escape the pursuit of the five major sects.

Xiao Lin also lined up in the team with some trepidation. He could only hope that the spiritual wood space between his eyebrows could avoid the spiritual search of the foundation-building cultivators.

Xiao Lin saw that the Luo Shou brothers and sisters came to the front of the team. Luo Shuang took out a jade box from the storage bag and happily exchanged it for a Dao Order. She looked at Luo Shou, but did not immediately activate the runes on it.

Luo Shou was also excited. After he whispered a few words in Luo Shuang's ear, Luo Shuang activated the runes on the Dao Order with a little melancholy.

Among the seven or eight hundred Qi Refining cultivators who came out of the cave, about half of them got the Purple Spirit Flower, which means that about four hundred people got the Dao Order.

Seeing this result, Xiao Lin couldn't help but secretly smack his lips. For casual cultivators, only a few hundred people got the Dao Order in the cave that was opened once every thirty years, and had the opportunity to join the five major sects. If it was distributed every year, this number was almost pitiful.

However, Xiao Lin was also a little surprised. The Purple Spirit Flower that could be used as medicine needed to be at least a hundred years old, and the cave was opened once every thirty years. According to the time, thirty years was not enough to breed another batch of Purple Spirit Flowers.

After thinking for a long time, Xiao Lin couldn't figure it out, so he could only keep this doubt in his heart.

Soon, it was Xiao Lin's turn. Xiao Lin took out a jade box from his storage bag and handed it to a Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivator in front of him. This person was wearing a dark green robe and should be an outer disciple of Dancao Mountain.

After the other party took the jade box, Xiao Lin untied the bag from his waist and handed it over.

After the man took Xiao Lin's bag, he immediately probed his spiritual sense into it and searched carefully. After a few breaths, he opened his eyes, nodded, and then threw Xiao Lin's bag to a Bailian Sect disciple beside him.

After all five people searched Xiao Lin's bag, the Dancao Mountain disciple turned around and nodded to the Dancao Mountain Foundation Establishment cultivator behind him. At this time, Xiao Lin felt a chill all over his body and his face changed slightly. He knew that the Foundation Establishment cultivator was scanning him with his spiritual sense.

This feeling made his back cold, and he was also uneasy. Under the spiritual consciousness of the foundation-building cultivator, Xiao Lin's bones and blood vessels were probably all clear in his mind.

This feeling only lasted for a blink of an eye. After the foundation-building cultivator finished checking, he nodded to the cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage in front of him.

The man took out a Dao Order from the storage bag beside him and threw it to Xiao Lin.

At this point, Xiao Lin's heart was finally at ease. At the same time, he became more and more curious about the spiritual wood space between his eyebrows, because just now, when the foundation-building cultivator used his spiritual consciousness to scan him, he could clearly sense that the spiritual wood space between his eyebrows suddenly became looming.

And when the spiritual consciousness scanned it, the spiritual wood space was just in a hidden state, as if it had disappeared.

The foundation-building cultivator naturally got nothing. As for the storage bag, Xiao Lin put some ordinary items in it. There was nothing worthy of the envy of these sect disciples.

Holding the Dao Order in his hand, Xiao Lin's face was full of joy. He could not wait to input a stream of mana into the Dao Order. The runes on the back of the Dao Order suddenly lit up and lasted for a cup of tea before gradually extinguishing.

After putting the Dao Order into his bag, Xiao Lin left the valley. As soon as he left the valley, he used the Wind Control Technique and rushed towards the Snow Prison Pass at lightning speed.

Along the way, Xiao Lin used the Wind Control Technique to the extreme, like a stream of green smoke, shooting forward.

At this moment, Xiao Lin was in an extremely comfortable mood. All his worries and sorrows seemed to have dissipated into the clouds. It has been nearly ten years since he accidentally got a broken Dry Water Sutra and now the end of the cave trial.

After ten years of hard work, he finally achieved his wish and successfully obtained the key to join the five major sects - the Dao Order.

Xiao Lin couldn't help wanting to let out a long roar, but after a little thought, he still held back. Since he started practicing, although he had gone through many twists and turns, he finally got through it without any danger.

In this process, Xiao Lin also developed a cautious character. In Xiao Lin's view, his cultivation field will soon be changed from several immortal cities to five major sects.

The five major sects can only be regarded as a new starting point for him. After all, he is only a low-level cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and there is still a long way to go.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin began to think about which of the five major sects he should join. Qianfu Sect and Tianyun Pavilion, due to their small number of people, the cultivation resources allocated to the disciples in the sect must be more than the other three major sects.

But it is not enough to enter the sect with the Dao Order alone, and several strict tests are required. It is precisely because of this that these two sects were directly excluded by Xiao Lin. As long as he has a high-level pill recipe, he will not lack cultivation resources as long as he has a spiritual wood space.
