A great number of Qi Refining Cultivators gathered in the Martial Training Ground, participating in the assessments, some succeeded, while others failed.
In a tranquil estate, four men and one woman gathered in a cyan stone pavilion, sipping tea and chatting, among them was Qianyang True Person.
“Taoist Friend Chen, you didn’t bring that disciple with the Heavenly Spirit Root to this ascension conference?”
A plump lady in a white dress inquired with curiosity.
The lady in the white dress had a face like a painting, natural beauty without the need for makeup, sparkling beautiful eyes like the stars, and a heroic look between her brows.
Her black hair fell to the back of her head.
Fairy Cold Moon hailed from Badao Villa.
“Junior Brother Wang is in secluded cultivation within the sect and has not come.”
Qianyang True Person explained.
“Junior Brother Wang?
Taoist Friend Chen, which Nascent Soul Cultivator of your sect has accepted him as a disciple?”
A middle-aged man in a green robe with a broad face and large eyes, whose clean countenance was accentuated by the three Spirit Beast bags tied around his waist, asked with curiosity.
Green Python True Person belongs to the Spirit Control Sect.
“Junior Brother Wang has been taken as a direct disciple by the Great Elder and is personally instructed by him.”
Qianyang True Person explained.
“It looks like it won’t be long before your Xuanyang Sect has one more expert at the Core Formation Stage.”
A fat old man in a golden robe said with a smile.
The golden-robed old man had a clean face and squinted eyes.
Jinxia Reverend, he represents the Qixia Sect to take in disciples at Cloud Dream Mountain.
“Taoist Friend Jin, didn’t your Qixia Sect take in a Cultivator with Dual Spiritual Roots the time before last, and has he too not been taken as a disciple by a Nascent Soul Master?”
A man dressed in a purple Taoist robe, with a lotus crown on his head, asked.
The purple-robed Taoist had a tall and upright figure, with well-proportioned features.
Daoist Ziyang also comes from the Qixia Sect.
Jinxia Reverend shook his head and said, “Taoist Friend Yang misunderstands, he’s merely a cultivator with Dual Spiritual Roots.
He has been taken as a personal disciple by the Sect Master Senior Sister, who is personally instructing him.”
Fairy Cold Moon took a sip of the Spiritual Tea and looked to Green Python True Person, “Taoist Friend Lin, I heard that your sect’s Red Flood Dragon True Person has slain a Core Formation Stage member of the Barbarian Tribe!”
“I didn’t expect such a trivial matter to reach Fairy Xu’s ears, but it’s true.”
While Green Python True Person said this, his face was full of pride.
“The Barbarian Tribe possesses strong physical bodies, their Totem Techniques are rather mysterious, and they have the aid of Spirit Beasts.
In a one-on-one fight, it is not easy to kill a Core Formation Stage member of the Barbarian Tribe.
Taoist Friend Han is indeed worthy of being one of the Nine Outstanding of the Spirit Control Sect.”
Fairy Cold Moon exclaimed.
“Senior Brother Han’s Life-Bound Spirit Beast has advanced to the third rank, enhancing his strength considerably.
It’s nothing more than slaying a Core Formation member of the Barbarian Tribe, who really was asking for death by coming to our Human Clan’s territory, acting as if we don’t exist,” said Green Python True Person, his face filled with murderous intent at the end.
The Human Clan and the Barbarian Tribe are sworn enemies, as incompatible as fire and water.
“The Barbarian Tribe has their own experts too, but those who sneak into our Human Clan’s territory are mostly not the elite of the Barbarian Tribe.
One could only say he was unlucky.
Taoist Friend Han’s Life-Bound Spirit Beast is a Red Fire Flood Dragon, and after advancing to the third rank, the increase in Taoist Friend Han’s strength is not slight,” Qianyang True Person said with a tone of envy.
“Taoist Friend Chen is too kind.
Senior Brother Han is only at the Middle Stage of Core Formation, still quite a way behind Fairy Skyfire.
Speaking of which, it has been a long time since we saw Fairy Xu, has she advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage?” Green Python True Person asked, full of curiosity.
As soon as these words were spoken, Fairy Cold Moon and the others all looked toward Qianyang True Person.
“Daoist Friend Lin, you jest.
Advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage is not that easy.
Senior Sister Xu has only gained a slightly better chance,” he said.
Qianyang True Person spoke modestly, his face beaming with pride.
After all, Xuanyang Sect was already the number one force in Qin Country, and if they could produce another Nascent Soul Cultivator, their strength would be even more formidable.
“I remember Fairy Xu was a Loose Cultivator.
When she participated in the Ascension Conference, she was outstanding, and was noticed by the Xuanyang True Monarch who led the team and was taken in as a disciple.
I wonder if there will be any promising newcomers this time.”
Green Python True Person said.
“The Ascension Conference has just begun, let’s just wait for the good news, and let the younger generation handle it.”
Qianyang True Person said with a smile, as he picked up the teapot to pour Spiritual Tea for Green Python True Person.
Five Core Formation Cultivators sat in the Stone Pavilion, chatting idly while awaiting the assessment results.
A large number of Qi Refining Cultivators gathered in the Martial Training Ground, taking part in the assessments of the five major powers.
Chen Hanyue looked at the Hundred Demons Tower, her expression solemn.
She had halted at the eighth floor, failing to break through the ninth, while Chen Handian was attempting the challenge.
On the eighth floor, Shen Long was entangled in battle with an Ice Armor Python and a Lihuo Falcon.
The body of the Ice Armor Python bore scorch marks; it opened its mouth to spray out white Ice Cones, while the Lihuo Falcon circled unpredictably in the high sky, its wings flapping gently as it sent a dozen or so bowl-sized red fireballs flying out.
Shen Long held a yellow flying dagger in his hand, with four yellow flying daggers attacking the Ice Armor Python and the Lihuo Falcon.
With the first order spells of the Five Elements Great Perfection, he had effortlessly cleared the previous seven floors.
By the eighth floor, facing two first order late-stage Monster Beasts, he resorted to the Mother-Child Blade.
Shen Long wielded the Mother Blade, while the four Child Blades orbited and slashed towards the Ice Armor Python.
The Ice Armor Python opened its mouth and spat out a dozen two-foot-long white Ice Cones, which were shattered by the four Child Blades.
It then exhaled a stream of white cold air, charging forward.
When the white cold air touched the four Child Blades, they instantly frosted over, frozen in place.
A gigantic fireball, the size of a house, fell from the sky, landing on the Ice Armor Python.
The explosive rumbling sound engulfed the body of the Ice Armor Python in rolling flames, the intense heat melting the ice layer in an instant.
The four Child Blades emitted dazzling yellow light, plunging into the flames, dismembering the Ice Armor Python, whose body dispersed into specks of Spiritual Light.
The Lihuo Falcon’s wings flapped slightly, and a dozen red fireballs shot out, striking the blue water barrier on Shen Long’s body in succession.
The booming noise of explosions drowned Shen Long’s figure in flames.
The Lihuo Falcon dove from the sky, its sharp talons heading straight for Shen Long.
A three-foot-long white Ice Cone flew out from the sea of fire, colliding with the Lihuo Falcon’s talons.
A dull sound erupted as the talons shattered the Ice Cone, a frigid air surged out, and the talons gathered some white ice chips.
The Lihuo Falcon’s talons plunged into the sea of fire, making a muffled sound as if striking an iron wall.
A huge white net flew out, enveloping the body of the Lihuo Falcon.
The white net sparked with blinding light, emitting a surge of white cold air, rapidly freezing the Lihuo Falcon into an ice sculpture.
As the flames dissipated, Shen Long’s figure re-emerged.
Shen Long had already retracted the Mother-Child Blade, his body covered by three layers of light screens in various colors.
He lifted his right hand and a palm-sized blue seal flew out, instantly enlarging and smashing into the frozen Lihuo Falcon.
A loud noise followed, and the Lihuo Falcon was crushed into a bloody mess by the blue giant seal.
The Monster Trapping Net and the Xuan Water Seal were both medium-grade Magic Artifacts, stored in the same Storage Bag as the Spirt Control Token.
A green light illuminated beneath Shen Long’s feet, and he hurriedly collected the two Magic Artifacts.
The green light soared into the heavens, swallowing Shen Long’s figure.
When the green light dispersed, Shen Long appeared inside a grand hall of similar size.
No sooner had he shown up than a red giant tortoise, a silver giant goose, and a white centipede appeared; all were first order late-stage.
