Hua Xianzi, upon seeing this, simply nodded at him without speaking.
As for Xiao Xuanzhen, she rolled her eyes crisply and said with her head held high:
"Being the first on the Earthly List, it's normal to arrive a bit late."
Chen Yi gave her a stare, then waved smilingly with the young girl and others, and looked around.
There were quite a few people here, besides the disciples who stood out in the minor sect examination, the rest were either sect leaders or elders from the various peaks.
From Taixu Peak ca Ancient Tao, Lin Xun Peak was represented by a master, but it wasn't the familiar Pang Kuan.
Both the Qin Lineage and Sword Edge Mountain had the sect leaders themselves attending.
As for the remaining Dan Peak Mountain...
Chen Yi looked at the unfamiliar female cultivator, and his expression turned sowhat odd.
Why did it feel like the way the master uncle looked at Ancient Tao was a bit strange?
Just like how the young girl looks at him?
A thought crossed Chen Yi's mind, recalling what Hua Xianzi had once told him: there was a reclusive master uncle on Dan Peak Mountain who had ties with Ancient Tao.
Could it be her?
Thinking this, Chen Yi stood with Hua Youxiang and Lin Xueru among others, quietly waiting for further arrangents.
Ancient Tao looked slightly uneasy and turned his body slightly, as if to avoid soone's gaze, and spoke,
"Everyone is here, so let's discuss the sect's arrangents."
"Not far ahead is Qianmo Cliff, I believe you all have heard of this forbidden place, where..."
Chen Yi watched his expression, and beca more certain of his guess, couldn't help but chuckle quietly.
Then he focused his mind and listened intently to what Gu Tiangang said.
It had been ntioned before; initially, Qianmo Cliff wasn't a forbidden area of the sect.
Back then, it served as a training ground for disciples of various peaks to comprehend techniques.
Any disciple with outstanding talent could apply to train here.
The reason it was later designated as a sect's forbidden area, as briefly ntioned by Ancient Tao — was due to the limited spiritual energy here.
After hundreds to thousands of years of depletion, the spiritual energy couldn't keep up with the disciples' training needs.
Thus, for the continuity of the sect, it was set as a forbidden area to allow it to recover and rejuvenate.
"This place is the richest in spiritual energy in our Grand Void Sect. Soon, we will activate the array here, allowing you to cultivate."
"Additionally, Qianmo Cliff retains many traces of the Skill Path, especially from the techniques of our sect's founding ancestors."
"Besides cultivating, you can also observe and comprehend them. How much you can perceive depends on your insight."
Saying this, Gu Tiangang gestured for Chen Yi and others to enter Qianmo Cliff.
"Let's go."
Chen Yi glanced at the expressions of Li Qingzhou and others, then led the way in.
Only after they entered did they see the true appearance of Qianmo Cliff, which was not the bare cliff visible from the outside.
It was instead an extrely vast valley.
Within the quiet valley, there was a pool with a hundred platforms, each equipped with a ditation cushion, small tables, etc.
On one side of the pool, there was a smooth cliff face marked with sword slashes and palm impressions.
On the other side, there were two rows of rooms, about fifty to sixty in total, likely ant for their rest.
Chen Yi looked around and said with a smile, "It seems the sect intends to let us cultivate here until the start of the grand event."
Lin Xueru nodded vigorously, "This is good, this is good."
Having been in the Grand Void Sect for so long, she hadn't had much ti to spend with Chen Yi.
Finally having such an opportunity made her very happy.
Xiao Xuanzhen pursed her lips, thinking there were bad people here, she must be careful to protect Xue Ru.
Hmm, Hua also needs her protection.
Hua Youxiang winked at Hua Xianzi, teasingly asking, "Sister, now that you're here, what about Third Sister?"
Hua Xianzi withdrew her gaze from Chen Yi, "I have already prepared the ingredients for her to refine elixirs; she will be in the alchemy room cultivating during this ti."
"Luckily, Third Sister has a calm temperant, if it were , I would be bored to death."
Speaking, Hua Youxiang ran to the poolside like a joyful bird, stretching her arms out to feel the dense spiritual energy.
"Sister, co quickly, the spiritual energy here is so rich!"
Hua Xianzi helplessly watched her and could only follow along.
On the other side, Du Yanqing and Du Yan surveyed the valley and admired, "If we had known about such a place, we would have co to explore no matter what."
Du Yan grumpily replied, "It's not too late to know now, especially with elder brother's 'busyness' before, there wasn't even ti to co here."
"..."
Du Yanqing chuckled awkwardly, "Sister, I was wrong. Please forgive ."
That said, he couldn't help but complain about Wei Letian and his siblings in his heart.
If it weren't for those two being unambitious, he would not have been involved in this trouble.
Chen Yi scanned the area and wondered, "Only eight people?"
Including him, there should be nine who passed the sect's minor test, plus a few ergency replacents; it should be no less than ten people in total.
Next to him, Xiao Xuanzhen replied, "Lin Xun Peak's Ah Man has been taken to the Southern Barbarian Land by Master Pang."
"And Brother Shen from Qin Peak, Master Fang Hua has other arrangents for him."
Lin Xueru took off her boots, soaked her feet in the pool, and said with a smile, "Brother Yi, the water here is so clear."
Chen Yi nodded, his eyes turned to the pool and faintly saw shadows of pale white fish.
Such white fish.
At that mont, he heard Xiao Xuanzhen's sound transmission, "Where are your eyes wandering? Don't look!"
Chen Yi couldn't be bothered to turn around and transmitted back, "I'm not looking at you, or are you saying you want to have a match with ?"
Xiao Xuanzhen glared at the back of his head, her fists clenched and swung twice.
If she didn't know she couldn't beat him, she would have accepted the challenge.
"No looking ans no looking!"
Xiao Xuanzhen quickly moved in front of Chen Yi, blocking his view like a protective mother hen.
"..."
Chen Yi glared at her, promising himself to get back at her later, then promptly teleported onto a platform.
"Let's cultivate."
"Brother Yi, you're working too hard, wait for ."
"When our brother is already so strong yet still works so hard..."
After familiarizing themselves with the environnt of Qianmo Cliff, everyone began to cultivate in small groups.
...
Five months passed quickly.
From spring to sumr, the Wei dynasty approached autumn.
Almost all major sects had decided on the disciples that would participate in the grand Wei dynasty festival; many young martial world guests also wanted to join and therefore went around challenging veteran Jianghu figures or those on the Earthly List from Heavenly Pride List.
At that ti, the Wei dynasty's martial world was bustling and lively.
Today a Heavenly Pride is defeated in a challenge, tomorrow another young hero challenges and dies at the hands of a sect disciple.
Despite this, the first place on "Heavenly Pride List·Earthly List" still belongs to "Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi.
Even several Heavenly Prides who had reached the Second Grade of the Divine Travel Realm like those from Lou Wushan could not shake his position.
"Looking forward to 'Little Sword Immortal's' performance in this festival."
"That's all we can hope for; several Heavenly Prides from the Grand Void Sect are in seclusion, with no records of their achievents spreading in the martial world."
"It's disappointing that the Taoist second place is being so conservative."
"Speaking of which, recently several Heavenly Prides have been attacked by demons. The Grand Void Sect's decision not to let their top disciples descend the mountain must be related to this."
"Not just demons, but the Bai Shen Sect has also been quite active recently, especially that 'Demoness' Wen Renying; two Heavenly Prides from the south have died by her hand."
"Hmph, those heretic paths, soone will clean them up soon!"
"A few sects have already sent their inheritors down the mountain, like the Floating and Sinking Buddha Child from Kyoto Prefecture has also started traveling around."
"And the Absolute Blade Inheritor from Wuliang Mountain, so have seen him in the Southern Barbarian Land."
"I've heard too, it's said he killed a Bitter Monk from the Southern Barbarian Sect, and now those barbarians are hunting him..."
