Chapter 1757 Changing Appearance
In the following days, Qingyang meditated in a temporary cave, adjusted his state, consolidated his cultivation, and patiently waited for the opening of Jietian Peak and Guanxian Cave.
In a blink of an eye, a few months passed, and more and more cultivators gathered around Jietian Peak. Not counting those hiding in the dark, there were hundreds of people waiting at the foot of the mountain. Most of them were Nascent Soul Level 8 cultivators, and only a small number of them were Nascent Soul Level 7 and below. The highest cultivation reached the peak of Nascent Soul Level 8, which was much higher than Yuyangzi's cultivation.
Yuyangzi came to Jietian Peak more than a month ago, and Lanjizi and Baiyunzi were with him. I don't know what conditions Yuyangzi had to persuade the two to come with him to Jietian Peak to find the cultivator who took away his demon beast inner pill. Wuqizi did not follow.
They couldn't find the Youfeng beast around Youfeng Lake, and then expanded the search area, but still found nothing. In desperation, Yu Yangzi made a condition to drag Lan Jizi and Bai Yunzi to Jietian Peak to try their luck. Yu Yangzi thought he would gain something, but when he came, he found that he had no clue at all. Who would take the initiative to reveal to him what kind of demon beast inner elixir they prepared?
It was impossible to force an investigation by relying on the background of the Spirit Realm and Xianyou Pavilion. Most of the cultivators present were at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul. Even those with worse backgrounds than him would not buy it. So the three of them came for more than a month, but they didn't find any clues. Yu Yangzi was unwilling but had no choice but to try his luck slowly. As for Lan Jizi and Bai Yunzi, they didn't care whether they could find the demon beast inner elixir. Anyway, someone gave them benefits, so they came here to broaden their horizons.
Early in the morning, the Jietian Peak, which had been quiet for many days, finally had a little movement. Several rays of light suddenly bloomed on the top of the mountain, adding a bit of mystery to the entire Jietian Peak, as if guiding everyone to reach the top as soon as possible. At this time, the restrictions at the foot of Jietian Peak seemed to have been lifted, but most of the cultivators were still in a wait-and-see state, and only a few began to prepare.
After an unknown period of time, someone finally couldn't help it. A Yuanying 8th level Dacheng cultivator tried to move forward and soon crossed the previous limit. Suddenly, a huge force attacked him, as if his whole body was pressed by a heavy burden. Fortunately, this pressure was within his tolerance range, so he gritted his teeth, circulated his true essence to resist the pressure, and walked forward carefully.
With someone taking the lead, the others did not delay any longer, and they all circulated their true essence to activate magic weapons, performed self-defense methods, and headed towards Jietian Peak. Among them, there was even a Yuanying 7th level Xiaocheng cultivator.
This person originally just came to watch the fun and had no intention of going up to Jietian Peak. However, seeing so many people entering Jietian Peak without any problems, he also wanted to give it a try, so he followed up with courage. It didn't matter if he didn't have the inner core of the demon beast. He came to watch the fun anyway, and the closer he was, the more real he could see.
As soon as he entered the range of Jietian Peak, a huge pressure enveloped him. Caught off guard, the cultivator almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he had made some preparations in advance and could barely bear it. However, it was more difficult to move forward, because he could clearly feel that the pressure on Jietian Peak increased as he went up. It was like this at the foot of the mountain, and he didn't know how strong it would be at the top.
The cultivator of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul tried to walk forward a few steps, but finally gave up and turned around to exit the range of Jietian Peak. It turned out that if he wanted to watch the fun up close, he also had to have a certain strength. His strength was only enough to watch the fun at the foot of the mountain, and he didn't have the ability to climb to the top of the mountain.
Seeing that the monks at the foot of the mountain have gradually entered the range of Jietian Peak, the monks who were hiding in the periphery can no longer sit still. They have opened the formation restrictions and are ready to climb Jietian Peak. Although there is no quota limit for the Guanxian Cave of Jietian Peak, according to past experience, the earlier you enter the Guanxian Cave, the better the position you occupy, and the higher the chance of comprehending the magic skills, so you can't fall too far behind.
This batch of monks is much higher in quality than the previous batch. Those who are at the eighth level of Yuanying are considered to have low cultivation. There are even two or three newly promoted ninth level Yuanying monks in this batch. Each of them has attracted great attention after showing up. I believe they are also remarkable in places like the spiritual world.
Qingyang roughly counted that the total number of monks who had entered the range of Jietian Peak before, plus the group at the periphery, was almost 800. More than 90% of them were at the eighth level of Yuanying, less than 10% were at the seventh level of Yuanying, and there were two or three who had reached the ninth level of Yuanying.
In the Ancient Wind Continent, those who can cultivate to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul are almost all overlords, and many of them are dying and have little lifespan. However, here, there are countless Nascent Soul cultivators at the eighth level, and each of them is very young, because there is an age limit for participating in the Wanling Conference. The Nascent Soul cannot be formed for more than three decades. Even if the years spent in the Wanling Secret Realm are counted, many people's lifespan is only about 400 years. There are still many years to come, and the future prospects are really limitless.
Yu Yangzi hesitated for a moment, and followed everyone to Jietian Peak. He felt that everyone was suspicious, but everyone seemed to be not very similar. There was no other way, so he could only climb Jietian Peak first. When he arrived at the top of Jietian Peak and outside the Guanxian Cave, the truth would be revealed.
Seeing that other cultivators had begun to act, there was only a group of cultivators below the seventh level of the Nascent Soul who were watching the excitement at the foot of the mountain. Qingyang knew that he should also leave, but he did not leave immediately, but operated the art of disguise and changed into the appearance of Fuliu Ghost King who was killed by them in the Netherworld.
Afterwards, Qingyang activated the remaining power of the Wanxi Grass in his body and adjusted his breath to be exactly the same as that of the Fuliu Ghost King. Qingyang had close contact with the Fuliu Ghost King before and was very familiar with his breath. This little thing was easy to do. To be on the safe side, Qingyang also used the Wanxi Grass to perform the Breath Containment Technique and adjusted his cultivation to the peak of the eighth level of the Nascent Soul. Now looking at Qingyang again, no matter his appearance, breath, or cultivation level, he was just like the Fuliu Ghost King, and there was no trace of Qingyang.
The reason why Qingyang did this was mainly to avoid trouble. Yuyangzi knew Qingyang. If he saw Qingyang coming to Jietian Peak, he would definitely suspect that he had obtained the inner pill of the Youfeng Beast. Qingyang was not afraid of fighting alone, mainly because there were too many spiritual world cultivators in Jietian Peak. Yuyangzi would just say something, and the spiritual world cultivators would definitely unite to deal with Qingyang. Qingyang was not capable of fighting against the first world cultivators.
Although Wanxicao can only be used once, its medicinal effect can last for a year. There are still several months left. With this thing, Yu Yangzi will definitely not be able to find Qingyang in a short time. When he is about to enter the Guanxian Cave, even if Yu Yangzi finds the problem, it will be too late to stop it.
