Chapter 117: Entering The Yuelan Sect
After looking at the cyan plate in Xu Ning’s hand, the young man showed a look of excitent.
“Sa team!”
He seed to be happy to see Xu Ning.
“My na is Gu Qinghe, and I belong to the Gu family from the Gushan Canton.”
“Gushan Canton…”
Xu Ning had heard of this place.
Gushan Canton was not far from the Yuelan Faction. If one traveled quickly, one could arrive there in less than ten days.
Gu Qinghe explained, “After I left the city, I was ambushed by an enemy halfway through my journey. However, I was too far away from the Gushan Canton so I couldn’t escape back the sa way. With no choice, I could only rush all the way here.”
“Throughout my journey, I went through hardships and several fierce battles. I almost even died.”
Gu Qinghe’s words were full of bitterness. “There were originally more than a dozen guards around , but they were all killed while protecting .”
It seed that Gu Qinghe had been holding back these words for too long. After Gu Qinghe saw Xu Ning, he blurted everything out.
“My apologies…”
Xu Ning said, “However, enough with the small talk, it is better to enter the faction as soon as possible. If they are still chasing after you, I might be dragged in as well.”
Gu Qinghe replied, “You’re right.”
Gu Qinghe quickly brought out a horse from nearby. Xu Ning noticed that it was not an ordinary horse.
However, the horse’s body was covered with wounds, and it seed to have a sluggish aura.
“Where are you from?”
After getting on the horse, Gu Qinghe asked.
“Chun Rin Canton, Xu Ning.”
Xu Ning briefly introduced his identity.
“Out of the three big families in Chun Rin Canton, I rember there is no Xu family, right?”
Gu Qinghe had a casual personality, so he was direct when asking questions.
“No, my spot was given to by the Feng family.”
There was no need to hide this.
Gu Qinghe talked along the way.
If it weren’t for his appearance, Xu Ning would not have believed that this guy had just escaped from death.
After half an hour of riding on their horses.
A huge gate appeared in their vision.
The writing on the gate beca clearer as they got closer.
Yuelan Faction.
“Finally here.”
Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe both felt relieved.
After rushing along the way, they finally reached their destination.
From a distance, they could see disciples wearing uniforms stationed at the gate.
Beside the disciples stationed at the gate, there were two giant demon beasts, lying beside the gate. They seed to be dozing off.
There were also disciples coming in and out of the gate.
“Who wants to enter the Yuelan Faction?”
When Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe approached on their horses, a garrison disciple suddenly blocked them.
“We are new disciples.”
Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe took out the cyan plates that proved their identity.
The disciple checked their plates, his expression softened.
“Two juniors, in that case, co with .”
After seeing the cyan plates, the disciple imdiately changed his attitude.
Anyone with this plate would begin as an inner disciple.
“Thank you brother.”
Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe thanked him.
“The horses cannot enter the faction.”
The disciple reminded.
Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe looked at each other, then both dismounted.
“Follow .”
The disciple then began to lead the way.
Obviously, he was responsible for leading newcors into the faction.
When crossing the gate, Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe passed by the two demon beasts.
The two vicious dog demon beasts opened their eyes at the sa ti. Their noses twitched a few tis, as if they were slling their aura,
‘Void realm demon beasts.’
Xu Ning had already gauged the level of these two gatekeeper demon beasts.
Just now, when the eyes of the two vicious dogs looked at him, he suddenly felt a sense of chilling danger.
The disciple led the two of them and continued walking up the stairs along the mountain.
After taking many steps, they finally reached a flat piece of land.
At this place, there were various buildings, as well as disciples in different uniforms, walking quickly on the streets.
“I will take you to verify your identity first.”
The disciple first led the two to a nearby concierge.
He talked with the working disciple inside before taking out a booklet.
“Tell where you are from, who recomnded you, and what is your first and last na.”
The disciple opened the booklet.
“My na is Xu Ning, and I was recomnded by the Feng family in Chun Rin Canton.”
After hearing the words, the disciple searched the booklet and found Xu Ning’s na.
Below Xu Ning’s na, there was a small portrait of Xu Ning’s face, which looked quite similar to Xu Ning’s real face.
Both Xu Ning’s information and Xu Ning’s portrait were prepared by Feng Chengyu and the people that delivered the demon beasts in advance.
The Yuelan Faction was quite strict when it ca to verifying their new disciples.
This was to prevent people from ambushing disciples along their journey and pretending to be the disciples themselves.
“Verified.”
Afterwards, the disciple confird Gu Qinghe’s identity.
He was also verified.
“In this case, I will first take you two juniors to the temporary residence.”
The disciple said.
“There are still ten days before the elders would start selecting the true disciples.”
While leading the way, the disciple explained to the two of them, “For these ten days, you two are still not officially part of the faction.”
“If you are selected as true disciples after ten days, then you will follow the elder who selected you to their mountain peak. If you are not selected as true disciples, then you will automatically gain the status of inner disciples.”
Additionally, the disciple also explained various precautions the two should take.
Afterwards, they were taken to a residential area.
Inside the area, there were rows of cyan brick houses. They looked quite rustic.
“This is the place where the new disciples live. If there is a wooden sign hanging outside the door, it ans that no one is living there yet.”
The disciple said, “You can choose the room yourself. The basic daily necessities are included in the room. Over the next ten days, soone will deliver you food everyday. After ten days, soone will take you away for the true disciple selection.”
“By the way, rember, do not fight here.”
Before the disciple left, he specifically reminded, “If you start a fight, you will be imdiately denied entry and be expelled from the faction directly.”
Afterwards, the disciple left.
“There are so many rules in a big faction.”
Gu Qinghe shook his head and sighed. “Brother Xu, choose a room.”
Gu Qinghe was impatient. He wanted to quickly find a place to wash and change his clothes.
“Okay.”
Xu Ning and Gu Qinghe walked in front of the cyan brick houses.
Xu Ning roughly estimated that there were close to a hundred cyan brick and tiled houses here, of which only a small number of people lived in.
According to what the disciple said just now, these people should all be newcors with the qualifications of an inner disciple.
“Brother Xu, how about this?”
Gu Qinghe stood still in front of two connected rooms that were empty.
“If we live closer to each other, we can take care of each other.”
Gu Qinghe said.
Xu Ning did not object. By staying so close together, he and Gu Qinghe would share one common living room.
After entering the living room, Xu Ning looked around.
The room was not big, but everything was neat.
Xu Ning put the bag he carried with him on the table, then opened it.
In this bag, there were mainly so clothes and a wooden box.
Inside the wooden box was the gift from Feng Chengyu—the Pure Source Dans that had a monetary value in the Yuelan Faction.
There were 30 Pure Source Dans, but Xu Ning had used 15 of them to convert them into 1500 units of energy.
Coupled with Xu Ning’s stash from Chuanhe Mountain and the Aura Crystals discharged by the Thousand Source Bug, Xu Ning now had 1650 energy units.
Out of the 1650 units of energy, Xu Ning used 600 of them to raise his Tidal Fist to level three.
After advancing it to level three, when Xu Ning used Tidal Fist, his lethality increased to an even greater extent.
Now, Xu Ning was able to hit quadruple strength punches continuously without the aid of single strength punches and double strength punches.
With this kind of strength, Xu Ning could basically instantly kill soone.
Even in the face of a semi void realm demon beast in the mountains, Xu Ning could try and fight it.
However, after Tidal Fist advanced to level three, Xu Ning discovered a problem, which was that the “ ” besides Tidal Fist on the Martial Arts Panel had disappeared.
There were nine levels in a void realm secret technique, and his Tidal Fist had only been cultivated to the third level. There was still a long way to go before it was completely cultivated.
Xu Ning knew the reason for this.
This was because, after reaching the fourth level, the void realm secret technique would involve change on the “characteristic” scale, and if he wanted to cultivate his “characteristic”, he must reach the void realm first.
This was one of the manifestations of the connection between a void realm secret scroll and a void realm secret technique.
Before Xu Ning beca a void realm martial artist, his Tidal Fist was stuck in the third level.
Afterwards, Xu Ning consud another 1,000 units of energy to raise his Fla Breath Bone Sutra gifted by Feng Chengyu to the third level.
The Fla Breath Bone Sutra was, to a certain extent, a higher level version of the Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic.
It was a technique that strengthened the physical body. Once a mortal martial artist turned into a void realm martial artist, their body would undergo a qualitative change.
The strength of their body would also increase by another magnitude.
The Fla Breath Bone Sutra could hamr and strengthen a void realm physical body.
In addition, the Fla Breath Bone Sutra also had the function of healing injuries.
According to the description of the Fla Breath Bone Sutra, once one cultivated it to the ninth level, as long as one wasn’t killed on the spot, even if one’s bones were crushed, one could still recover from the injuries.
Although Xu Ning had only cultivated the Fla Breath Bone Sutra to the third level, Xu Ning could still quickly heal his injuries.
Xu Ning’s face was scratched by Gu Qinghe with a flying knife just before this, which healed within a few seconds. This was the power of the Fla Breath Bone Sutra.
After raising the Tidal Fist and Fla Breath Bone Sutra to the third level, Xu Ning only had 50 units of energy left.
Xu Ning began to feel stressed from his energy reserves running low.
“I have to save these 15 Pure Source Dans first. There may be other uses for it in the future.”
Xu Ning put away the Pure Source Dans.
He had basically reached his limit in terms of his strength, so he didn’t need energy for the ti being.
Afterwards, Xu Ning took out his belt and checked the Thousand Source Bug.
After devouring several kinds of ores, it expelled Aura Crystals every few days.
But now, the Thousand Source Bug fell into a state of deep sleep.
The Thousand Source Bug curled up, making its whole body look like a little white ball.
Xu Ning was not worried about this. He actually looked forward to it.
It was because this was the precursor to the tamorphosis of the Thousand Source Bug.
After hatching, the Thousand Source Bug would continue to grow over ti and transform again and again.
After each tamorphosis, the Thousand Source Bug would evolve and expel higher-quality Aura Crystals.
The Aura Crystal that the Thousand Source Bug expelled was no longer enough to et Xu Ning’s requirents.
After this tamorphosis, Xu Ning hoped that this Thousand Source Bug would give him a satisfactory result.
After everything was cleaned up, Xu Ning changed his clothes and closed his eyes on the bed to rest.
After he went through that long journey, Xu Ning did feel tired.
Perhaps due to exhaustion, Xu Ning actually fell asleep.
Xu Ning woke up after hearing an argunt outside.
‘Soone seems to be arguing.’
Xu Ning sat up and listened to the argunt outside.
“This voice seems to be Gu Qinghe’s?”
Xu Ning winced.
He quickly walked out of the living room.
More than ten ters away, Gu Qinghe was having an argunt with a handso young man.
Both of them looked like they could start fighting at any ti.
“What is going on?”
Xu Ning couldn’t understand the reason why Gu Qinghe, who had just arrived here, would start an argunt with others.
If it were not for the restrictions, the two would have definitely started fighting.
Not only was Xu Ning watching them, but there were also people popping out of their living rooms.
However, no one moved forward. They just watched the excitent from far away.
So of them have been here for more than ten days, so their daily lives were rather very boring. It was rare to see sothing this exciting, so they all wanted to watch.
Xu Ning thought about it and finally walked towards the two of them.
“Brother Gu, calm down.”
Xu Ning walked behind Gu Qinghe and patted him on the shoulder.
Although Gu Qinghe had inadvertently hurt him before, Xu Ning felt that he was a good person, so he was willing to help him.
Xu Ning and the handso young man on the opposite side looked at each other. He then persuaded Gu Qinghe, “In ten days, there will be a true disciple admission test. If you get into a dispute now, the gain will not be worth the loss.”
After Gu Qinghe was convinced by Xu Ning, his anger seed to have faded.
But he still gritted his teeth and said cruelly to the handso young man, “Duan Xuefeng, just you wait!”
“What?”
When Xu Ning heard this, he realized that the feud between the two was not recent.
The two of them should be old acquaintances.
