Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

After a day of investigation, Ye Yu and his companions learned that although various sects had been besieging the Mist Fiend Sect, they had not found any trace of the Black Jade Lotus.

Even when the elders of Taiyi Sect and Tianjian Sect joined forces to kill the leader of Wusha Sect, they still couldn't find him.

Because they had pushed the Mist Fiend Sect to the brink, the sect members, who were prepared to fight to the death, launched a counterattack, resulting in injuries to disciples from various sects.

Therefore, many sects are recruiting disciples this time, including the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Taiyi Sect, the Ink Cloud Sect, the Ingenious Technique Sect, and so on.

Ye Yu and the others returned to the inn and discussed which sects Zhao Yuxuan and the others should apply to.

Actually, they had already come up with an idea while they were gathering information today. Zhao Yuxuan was the first to ask, "I discovered that for every cultivation technique we practice, there is a corresponding sect here. For example, my Zhao family practices swordsmanship, and there are several sword-practicing sects here. However, Yu Ci and I still want to go to the great swordsmanship sect, 'Heavenly Sword Sect'."

Ding Junning nodded and said, "I want to go to Xuanming Valley. It's a place where people mainly study poisons and poisonous insects. I can study poison techniques there and also cultivate Gu insects. It's quite suitable for me."

Mu Qingchuan also said, "The 'Nine Palaces Sect' here mainly practices feng shui formations, which are very similar to the cultivation method I practice. Although it is not as famous as the Heavenly Sword Sect, it is still one of the top sects. I want to go there."

After they finished speaking, they turned to look at Wu Xinrui, whose expression was somewhat conflicted. She said, "Logically speaking, the sect that corresponds to my family's cultivation method is 'Proud Blade Manor,' but it's only a second-tier sect. So... I plan to go to 'Taiyi Sect.' Their cultivation method is similar to my family's, and it's a major sect, so the cultivation resources should be better."

Hearing her say that, Ye Yu raised an eyebrow slightly: "Are you sure? Although 'Proud Blade Manor' is only a second-rate sect, its martial arts techniques are top-notch."

Without hesitation, Wu Xinrui replied, "I'm sure, I'll go to Taiyi Sect."

Seeing her determination, Ye Yu stopped talking.

She thought to herself: Once you've all joined the sect, I'm going to find Lu Zunrong, the leader of the Taiyi Sect. Getting the yellow cloth strip from him will definitely be a fight to the death. With her current cultivation level, dealing with Lu Zunrong shouldn't be a problem, but after Lu Zunrong dies, the Taiyi Sect, without a powerful backer, will most likely be demoted to a second-tier sect.

However, this is beyond Ye Yu's control. Which sect they choose to join is their own decision, and they should just hope they don't regret it later.

Now that everyone had a goal, they stopped discussing it and went back to their rooms to focus on their cultivation in preparation for the entrance exam the day after tomorrow.

After Gao Tao and the others left, the Zhao brothers, Yu Xuan and Yu Ci, stayed behind. Zhao Yu Ci couldn't hide his excitement and said, "Ye Yu, the pill you gave me is truly a divine medicine! Do you know, after I took it, I directly reached the late stage of the Profound Rank! I was worried that I wouldn't be able to pass the Heavenly Sword Sect's exam, hahaha, now I'm not afraid at all!"

"Oh, then you're lucky. I thought with your talent, taking this medicine would only get you to the mid-stage of the Profound Realm at most," Ye Yu teased Zhao Yuci.

Who knew he was so shameless, he said smugly, "You should look at me with new eyes after three days of separation, right? My potential is limitless."

Ye Yu scoffed and instructed, "This matter cannot be told to outsiders. It's enough for the three of us to know."

"I know, I know, my brother already warned me repeatedly not to tell anyone, to keep my mouth shut." He then muttered, "Am I such a big mouth?"

Ye Yu smiled and said, "Aren't you one?"

Zhao Yuxuan's lips curled slightly as he watched the two bickering. He shook his head and said, "You two should stop arguing."

Then, looking at Ye Yu, he asked, "Are you still going on the day of our exam?"

"Your registration is no problem at all, so I won't go. I have things to do."

"Are you going with Brother Gao to find the Fierce Blade Hall?" Zhao Yuxuan asked.

Ye Yu paused, her hand holding the teacup still, and looked at Zhao Yuxuan, asking, "You guessed it?"

“Yes. These past two days, Brother Gao hasn’t gone out for fear of causing us trouble. And since you and he are good friends, I even heard you asking him about the situation at the Fierce Blade Hall the other day, so I guessed you might be going there,” Zhao Yuxuan said calmly.

Ye Yu looked at him with a half-smile: "Brother Yu Xuan, you know me quite well, you can even guess what I'm thinking."

Zhao Yuxuan's ears turned bright red again. He pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but Zhao Yuci interrupted from the side: "Hey~, Ye Yu, you're calling him that pretty cheesy. You can't treat people differently. Call him Brother Yuci and let me hear it. You're always calling him Zhao Yuci, Zhao Yuci. You have no respect for elders."

Ye Yu glanced at him indifferently and said, "Fine, spit out the pills you ate and give them back to me, then I'll call for help."

Zhao Yuci immediately grinned and said, "No, can I call you Sister Ye Yu instead? Remember me if anything good happens in the future, Sister Ye Yu."

Zhao Yuxuan looked at Zhao Yuci and sighed: "You've taken the art of being flexible and adaptable to the extreme."

After the three of them laughed and joked for a while, Zhao Yuxuan continued to ask Ye Yu, "So, after you helped Brother Gao resolve the matter of the Fierce Blade Hall, what are your plans?"

Ye Yu took a sip of tea: "My main purpose in coming here this time is to find Lu Zunrong of the Taiyi Sect. He has something I want."

"Lu Zunrong of the Taiyi Sect?" Zhao Yuxuan thought for a moment and said, "Is he the leader of the Taiyi Sect?"

Ye Yu nodded.

"I heard he's a master at the early stage of the Heavenly Rank!" Zhao Yuxuan was truly shocked this time.

"What? You can deal with someone at the early stage of the Heavenly Rank? Are you already at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Rank?" Zhao Yuci thought he must have misheard.

Ye Yu calmly said, "When I saw him before, he was still at the peak of the late Earth Rank. Although he has now advanced to the Heaven Rank, I should have no problem dealing with him."

Hearing her say that, Zhao Yuxuan still looked at Ye Yu with some worry: "The difference between the Heaven Rank and the Earth Rank is not small. Although you are powerful, you must not underestimate your opponent."

Ye Yu nodded: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Even if something unexpected happens along the way, I'm confident I can escape."

Zhao Yuci, who had been stunned and frozen in place, seemed to recover. He leaned closer to Ye Yu and said, "Ye Yu, no matter what, you must be careful."

Ye Yu smiled and said, "Didn't you trust me? Don't worry, I'll be fine. Focus on preparing for your entrance exam."

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was time for various sects to recruit disciples.

Zhao Yuxuan, Zhao Yuci, Ding Junning, Mu Qingchuan, and Wu Xinrui all went to their respective favorite sects to take the entrance exam, while Ye Yu led Gao Tao toward the Fierce Blade Hall.

The Fierce Blade Hall is also recruiting new disciples today, but only a few people have signed up. It is estimated that most of them have gone to the major sects.

The disciple in charge of registration at the Fierce Blade Hall was lounging lazily in his chair. When someone approached, he handed over a piece of paper without even looking up, saying, "If you want to register, fill in this information first."

He handed the paper over, but no one took it for a long time. Just as he was about to get angry, he looked up and saw Gao Tao and a woman standing in front of him.

He chuckled and said, "Gao Tao? I didn't expect you to come looking for me! Weren't you like a rat in the street with nowhere to hide before? What? You couldn't hide anymore, so you came here to bow your head and admit your mistakes?"

The other two disciples from the Fierce Blade Hall sitting next to him also burst into laughter.

However, the next second, the disciple who spoke was sent flying by Ye Yu's palm, spitting out blood and dying.

Their laughter stopped abruptly, and they heard Ye Yu say, "Call your hall master out and tell him that the people who killed Pu Zong have arrived."
