The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Time flew by, and before they knew it, it was time for everyone to set off.

In addition to Yun Yici's ten disciples, the Nanhua Sect also dispatched three peak masters and one elder.

Wen Fuyue was among them.

There was no other way; all four of his disciples had been mobilized, and he couldn't possibly stay alone on Wangchen Peak.

The other two peak masters are Lin Qinyin and Chu Chen, plus Yan Jing.

The moment Yan Jing stepped onto the spirit boat, all the disciples of the Nanhua Sect cheered and jumped for joy, even happier than during the New Year in the mortal world.

Yan Jing responded, "Don't be too happy yet. You'll make up for the lessons you owe me double sooner or later."

In addition, there was also a group of Buddhist disciples.

Yun Yici goes out during the day and returns at night, and hasn't seen Xuanzhu and the others for a long time.

Xuanzhu and Liaoqing walked ahead. When Xuanzhu saw Yun Yici looking over, he smiled slightly at her.

Yun Yici quickly performed a Buddhist salute to him.

She originally thought that Xuanzhu's favorability would gradually decrease, but she didn't expect that after so long, it would still be 100.

After everyone took their places, they all stood on the deck of the spirit boat.

Gu Ruyi glanced at everyone and said, "I don't ask you to win the championship, but only that you return safely."

"All disciples, please remember to prioritize your own safety in all matters, and submit to the arrangements of the three peak masters for all other matters."

Although being second best all the time is infuriating, after the Buddha-Demon Tower incident, second place is just second place. Being alive is the most important thing.

As you can see, the Bagua Sect has been at the bottom of the rankings year after year, but that doesn't affect its status in the cultivation world at all.

Yan Jing smiled and said, "Sect Leader, you should have some faith in us. I have a feeling we can win the championship this time."

From the crowd beneath the spirit boat, one of the former disciples suddenly shouted, "Winning the championship is unimportant; the Wuji Dao Sect must die!!"

"This trip will surely bring glory to our Nanhua Sect!!"

The Wuji Dao Sect was the previous leader.

This sentence ignited the surging passion of the disciples of the Nanhua Sect, and cheers of "winning the championship" resounded endlessly.

Even after the spirit boat had been airborne for a long time, Yun Yici could still hear the surging shouts echoing in her ears.

The Nanhua Sect's own spirit boat was very spacious, and even if they settled in, there were still extra rooms.

Wen Fuyue and her four disciples chose to live in side rooms side by side, while Lin Qinyin and Chu Chen each took charge of three of the other six disciples.

Yan Jing came along to assist them in their cultivation on the spirit boat.

They couldn't bring the memory beads they used to practice combat skills and accumulate combat experience with them, so Yan Jing brought out the memory beads that were specially made for them.

Yun Yici took her memory bead back to her room to practice.

What makes her memory bead special is that the magnetic field inside completely suppresses her speed.

That is to say, her most prized speed cannot be fully utilized within this recording bead.

Inside the memory bead, she moved at the same speed as a regular swordsman, forced to refine her defensive techniques again and again amidst the pain.

This training method, though cruel and painful, is effective.

In short, through this daily practice and review, she went bald—no, she became stronger.

When Wen Fuyue knocked on the door, Yun Yici opened it and saw the blue sky and white clouds outside, as if she had never been in another world.

Wen Fuyue said, "We're almost at Yinxian City. I'll come and call you. Change your clothes before you go out."

As he spoke, he handed the white disciple's robe in his hand to Yun Yici.

Yun Yici took it and examined it closely; it was no different from her own.

She was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Master, I have a disciple's robe."

The disciples of the Nanhua Sect wear uniform robes, but it is not mandatory for them to wear them.

Her two sets of disciple robes were given to her when she went to the Sect Affairs Hall to collect her monthly salary during her first month of apprenticeship.

Wen Fuyue said, "They are different. These ten sets were specially made by the sect leader on behalf of Elder Qixiu. They look the same as ordinary disciple uniforms, but their defensive power is more than a hundred times better than ordinary disciple uniforms."

Yun Yici: 6. As expected of the sect leader.

She responded and went back to her room to wash and change.

When they came out, Ning Tinglan and the others were already waiting on the deck.

Yun Yici looked down curiously and saw a huge city nestled against the mountains and beside the water.

The distance was too great; she could only see the outline of the city walls of Yinxian City and the distinct lines of the urban buildings within them.

According to Shen Huaichuan, the Rakshasa Illusionary Sea was once an affiliated illusionary realm of his former sect, and at its peak, Nascent Soul cultivators were the main force entering and exiting it.

Later, the sect declined and the Rakshasa Illusion Sea drifted away.

After a long period of struggle, it became a secret realm open to all independent cultivators.

Then, as the resources of the secret realm were constantly plundered, the Rakshasa Illusionary Sea gradually declined, until finally it could only accommodate Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Fortunately, before the Rakshasa Illusionary Sea collapsed due to overexploitation, the twelve major sects rose to prominence.

After the Twelve Sects Agreement, the Rakshasa Illusionary Sea was designated as private property, allowing it time to recuperate and gradually transform it into a training and exploration ground for Foundation Establishment disciples from various sects.

Yinxian City is the city closest to the Rakshasa Illusion Sea.

Before their spirit boat landed, Wen Fuyue called her disciples back to their rooms and distributed storage bags to them one by one.

Things are different now. Yun Yici could tell how many spirit stones were inside the storage bag just by tapping it.

The storage bag that Wen Fuyue gave her this time contained at least 10,000 spirit stones.

She asked in surprise, "Master, what's this?"

Wen Fuyue said, "At that time, in addition to us, there will be disciples from other sects. Carrying more spirit stones on us will give us more confidence when interacting with them."

Rong Xuan declined, saying, "Master, I don't need to. I make quite a bit of money selling Buddhist robes and artifacts on the market."

Wen Fuyue insisted, "You are the senior brother. If you don't accept them, how will your junior brothers and sisters live? I've already given them all, so one more won't make a difference."

"Besides, what you earn isn't even worth mentioning to me."

Yun Yici believed this, for his master was indeed a business genius on the other side.

The four had no choice but to obediently accept the storage bag given to them by Wen Fuyue.

Wen Fuyue then carefully instructed, "When making friends, don't look at their social status or background. Other sects may have carefully selected disciples who excel in cultivation, but you need to carefully discern their other qualities. Be more cautious when you're out and about."

After he finished speaking, he looked at his four disciples, each with their own unique style, with great satisfaction.

Wen Fuyue had given all she needed to say, and then led the four of them out of the inner room.

The spirit boat was slowly descending. This was an area designated by Yinxian City. There were no city residents in sight. On the vast open space, there were only four other spirit boats.

Yan Jing said, "It seems we arrived relatively early this year."

After seeing the symbols on the four spirit boats, he couldn't help but exclaim, "The Wuji Dao Sect has arrived so early this year! Oh, and there's also the Bagua Sect, the Shuiyue Sect, and the Xuanyin Sect."

"That's strange. In previous years, your Chanyin Temple was the first to arrive, but this year you're late."

Upon hearing this, Liao Qing explained, "Perhaps we were delayed because of the matter of the Buddha-Demon Pagoda."

"Later, please allow me to use your esteemed space to entertain the elders of the other four sects."

The hidden dangers of the Buddha-Demon Tower were exposed by the Nanhua Sect. They have already taken away the Nanhua Sect's key, but the keys of other sects are still there.
