Will she become stronger if she accepts a disciple? She is definitely going to be the master.

"You should practice well! I will teach you the Nine Volumes of Huayin later. Even if some of you don't like music, you must learn at least one piece from the Nine Volumes of Huayin. As for what to learn, you decide for yourselves." Li Qingqing made a mandatory requirement for the first time.

As a disciple of Lingqin Peak, it would be very disrespectful if you can't even play the ninth volume of Huayin!

"Yes, we will study hard." Several people said in unison.

Li Qingqing waved her hand, signaling them to leave.

After everyone left, she returned to Qingyin Pavilion and continued to review the Divine Song of Extinction with the spirit of the Dayin Xuanlingqin.

Two hours later, a moon-white light shield appeared above Lingqin Peak.

But soon, the seven light shields of different colors merged into one, and a colorful barrier appeared within the entire Lingqin Peak.

At this moment, a loud rumbling sound was heard from the sky above the entire Jiuling Sect. The space array in the sect's protective formation was activated, and an invisible barrier blocked the Jiuling Sect's way down the mountain.

The master of Lingfu Peak, who had just stepped out of the sect, looked back in astonishment, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The master of Lingzhen Peak, who was just one step away from leaving, gritted his teeth and looked back in the direction of Lingqin Peak.

Can't this be done a little later?

Couldn't we have given you some advance notice?

Compared to his resentment, the master of Lingchu Peak and Elder Wu who happened to be at Lingchu Peak were much happier.

"Little Li is really talented! She has already reached the seventh level. If she works hard, she will be able to perfect the Divine Song of Nirvana!" Elder Wu was very expectant and excited.

The Spiritual Kitchen Peak Master also smiled and nodded, "Yes! Xiao Li is at a disadvantage because of her young age. Otherwise, how could Fu Changye be the number one cultivator in our Nine Spirit Sect?"

Elder Wu smiled but said nothing, but he had the same thought in his mind.

On the main peak side, the head was also shocked and surprised, but more of it was happiness.

He looked in the direction of Lingqin Peak, and in his heart he admired his good vision.

Fortunately, he did not reject Li Qingqing's idea of becoming the peak master!

Sure enough, the ancestors still bless their Jiuling Sect.

However, I still hope that she can quickly break through the ninth level and master the Divine Song of Annihilation!

Otherwise, the Jiuling Sect would have to close for a long time.

However, because they were unable to go out, the disciples from all peaks of the Jiuling Sect chose to practice in silence.

Those who could squeeze into the Spirit Pond went to the Spirit Pond, and those who couldn't go to the Spirit Pond gathered in the open square, the back mountain with beautiful scenery, the training room in the sect, etc.

It was not until late at night, when the sky was full of twinkling stars, that the eighth silver light shield, as bright as starlight, appeared on the side of Lingqin Peak.

After the light shield and the barrier merged, Lingqin Peak seemed to disappear from Jiuling Sect for a moment, and the entire Jiuling Sect was in a state of complete silence.

In fact, not only outsiders felt this way, but Li Qingqing, who was playing the Divine Song of Nirvana, also felt this way.

For a moment, she felt her whole body was still, as if she was about to die in this silence.

Suddenly, she felt a gentle force pulling at her soul, bringing her back to consciousness from this state of extinction.

Then, she seemed to hear a male voice in her ears, which sounded a little illusory and like a clear spring flowing across her heart.

"Just have a good sleep, and you'll be fine when you wake up!"

The sound was very soft, yet it carried an irresistible temptation, and before she knew it, she fell asleep on the Xuanling Harp.

In a daze, she felt someone touch her face, and then sighed slightly.

She wanted to open her eyes and look, but a suction force came over her and she fell into sleep again.

She slept for seven days, and many people were anxiously wondering whether Li Qingqing had failed to learn the Divine Song of Nirvana.

The master of Lingchu Peak wanted to go to Lingqin Peak to take a look, but there was a barrier outside Lingqin Peak. Without the permission of the master of Lingqin Peak, outsiders could not enter.

In fact, because Li Qingqing's Divine Song of Extinction was not yet perfected, even Xia Nanfeng and the others were unable to enter Lingqin Peak.

Another day passed, and Li Qingqing finally woke up.

It was just a song, but it made her feel like a lifetime had passed and the world had changed.

She took a deep breath, took a Nine-Transformation Spirit Nourishing Pill, ate some spiritual food, and then continued to play.

The Divine Song of Nirvana is just a little bit away from being perfected, and she definitely cannot give up at this time.

The fingers moved slightly, and the sound of the piano flowed, but the tone was not as melodious as usual. Wherever the music reached, it was heavy and gray.

Once she mastered this emotion, her piano playing became smoother.

But, there’s still a little bit left…

Every time she was about to finish playing, she was always just a little bit off.

It was this little thing that made her practice the piano for another three days without any progress.

It wasn't until she suddenly recalled the image of a beautiful young man in a green robe, carrying a purple-gold sword, from her past life, wielding his sword to split half of Spiritual Medicine Peak, shattering the plaque on Spiritual Medicine Peak, that the sound of the zither suddenly gave rise to a glimmer of hope from the extreme and despairing desolation...

When a golden light enveloped the sky above Lingqin Peak, the half-month ban on the Jiuling Sect was finally lifted.

Li Qingqing returned to her room to rest in a trance.

The moment she closed her eyes, the scene of the masked man kissing her in the small secret realm unexpectedly emerged in her mind...

Who is he?

I clearly don't know him, so why do I feel a strange sense of familiarity?

……

The main peak of Jiuling Sect.

The headmaster handed the newly received invitation letter to several peak masters for circulation. "The venue for the Hualing Jiuzhou Sect Qualifying Tournament in three months has been confirmed. Please take a look."

When the Spirit Sword Peak Master saw the address on the invitation, he looked a little puzzled. "This time, the sect ranking competition is actually going to be held in the Baiji Tower in Dongzhou? Isn't the Baiji Tower in a ban period, and it will take a decade to reopen? It's not the right time yet, is it?"

"Yes, it's not the right time now, but three months from now it will be exactly the sixtieth anniversary of the Chinese zodiac. This time, the maximum number of people allowed to enter the Baiji Tower from each major sect is one hundred, so you have to choose your candidates carefully." There was a hint of worry in the sect leader's tone.

The Hualing Jiuzhou Sect Ranking Tournament is held every ten years. In the last ten years, their Jiuling Sect was ranked third in the entire Hualing Jiuzhou and first in Jiuling Continent, but it is really hard to say this time.

The changes in the Shenxu land were a heavy blow to the Jiuling Sect.

"Lingqin Peak has only seven disciples, so that means seven places. I also want seven places from Lingchu Peak. As for the rest, you can divide them equally." The master of Lingchu Peak made the decision in just a moment.

"Then I will also ask for seven places from my Spirit Beast Peak! You can handle the rest as you wish." The Spirit Beast Peak Master also said this, indicating that he had no intention of asking for more places.

"Then I will reserve seven places on my main peak, and divide the remaining places equally among the other six peaks, with twelve places for each peak. Do you have any objections?" asked the headmaster.

"Okay." The master of Lingjian Peak nodded.

"Let's do this! Since the Spiritual Medicine Peak Master is not here, I think he has no objection." The Spiritual Talisman Peak Master felt that there was nothing wrong with this division.

The other peak masters can all get two more places, so naturally they will have no objection.

After agreeing on the quota issue, everyone started discussing when to go to Dongzhou.
