Fairy, why bother with me? I am really a yellow-haired villain.

When did it all go wrong? From the very beginning?

Yun Zhonghe felt a slight throbbing emotion in his heart.

Mu Jixue keenly noticed Yun Zhonghe's expression, and suddenly became jealous, and grabbed the soft flesh on Yun Zhonghe's waist.

Yun Zhonghe grimaced in pain.

Mu Jixue seemed to have inherited Tao Jiuer's true skills. She had a forced smile and an attitude that said, "You've done all those things with me, so you're not allowed to be so close to her."

Yun Zhonghe was ashamed.

Why does it look like he has already eaten Mu Jixue completely? He just took off her panties, that's all.

However, Yun Zhonghe was just secretly criticizing it.

Qin Hongye saw all of this.

Under normal circumstances, Qin Hongye would definitely not endure it with her personality. If it weren't for Yun Zhonghe's face, she would have been rude long ago.

Last time, Mu Jixue was lucky, so she was able to fight her on equal terms on the spirit boat.

If she had another chance, she would never let Mu Jixue be so arrogant again!

Qin Hongye took a deep breath and managed to hold it in.

"It's nothing, actually. Master Yun has done me a favor, and I just wanted to do my best to help him."

Qin Hongye was still eloquent and eased the atmosphere.

She pointed out, "In fact, there may be many masters attending this competition who are much stronger than me."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the four people, including Yun Zhonghe, became serious, and the playful atmosphere just now disappeared in an instant.

Qin Hongye raised her chin, signaling Yun Zhonghe and the others to pay attention to an ordinary-looking young man not far away. "Did you see that guy? His name is Li Yifeng, a peak-level Golden Core swordsman with a seven-striped Golden Core. He also possesses innate divine power, and his physical body has also been cultivated to the peak of the Golden Core. He used the fourth-grade demon beast Spirit Source Mad Rhino Demon Core to strengthen his body!"

A seven-patterned golden elixir?! A physique comparable to that of a swordsman at the peak of the golden elixir stage?! And one that was fortified with the demon elixir of the renowned fourth-grade demon beast, the Spirit Source Mad Rhino?!

Qin Hongye hadn't finished speaking yet: "His weapon is the Haotian Heavy Sword, a mid-grade magical weapon. His combat power is extremely fierce. A year ago, he was able to kill a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator with a single blow without using any sword techniques. If he comes out this year, I'm afraid he will be even more powerful!"

What kind of Berserker Swordsman?!

Not only Yun Zhonghe was shocked, but Mu Jixue, Lin Zhongyu and Su Xiaoxiao were also shocked.

With such a configuration, any one of them alone would be considered genius, but how could they all be concentrated in one person?

Demon!

Chapter 392: All the old friends are here!

In the world of cultivation, as the realm of cultivation improves, the gap between realms will become larger and larger. In the end, even the gap of a small realm will be a crushing blow of absolute strength. This is common knowledge.

The Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage are the starting stages of the road to cultivation. Although there is a certain gap in strength between the two, for some geniuses, the gap between the realms is not too big, and cross-level battles are normal.

Even some monsters, such as the young monsters from the Immortal Alliance, can easily cross the gap in the Jindan stage.

However, when the cultivators enter the important watershed of the Nascent Soul Stage, the gap between the realms will become extremely disparate, showing an almost exponential growth trend. Even monsters like Yun Zhonghe can't easily cross an entire realm.

Being able to cross three small realms and challenge higher-level beings is already a leader among monsters, a rare existence.

Therefore, when Yun Zhonghe learned that the young man named Li Yifeng could kill a mid-Nascent Soul expert with his peak Golden Core cultivation, and was even rumored to have the strength to fight against a late-Nascent Soul expert, Yun Zhonghe was shocked.

In Yun Zhonghe's mind, Mu Jixue is already a gifted person who is close to the limit and has reached the ceiling of talent.

But it seems that the Xuantian Sect has suddenly produced a monster character that has never existed in the game before, and his talent is no less than Mu Jixue!

Even worse than before!

Naturally, defeating Yun Zhonghe is no problem, after all, Yun Zhonghe's cultivation is bound to Mu Jixue.

Now that Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue have completed their Dan formation, their strength has made a qualitative leap and has been upgraded to a higher level. He feels that he should be able to deal with ordinary strong men in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

If the opponent is in the late Nascent Soul stage, it is a different story... Only by giving it your all and using all your hidden skills can you barely fight.

But even so, even if he defeated his opponent, he would most likely end up seriously injured.

Although he had barely defeated the Disaster Queen once, the Disaster Queen had not fully recovered her strength at that time, and Yun Zhonghe had also received double enhancements from Mu Jixue and Senior Xingbu, and his own cultivation had been forcibly raised to the Nascent Soul stage. In addition, he cleverly exploited the loopholes in the laws, and only then was he able to barely defeat his opponent.

If they really wanted to compete based on pure strength, Yun Zhonghe knew his own limitations and could only fight against a Nascent Soul cultivator at best.

At this moment, he was deeply shocked by the situation in the sect where many talented people were hidden. This shock even diluted his shock when he just discovered that the person Qin Hongye liked was actually him.

At this moment, who Qin Hongye really likes seems to be no longer so important.

If Qin Hongye knew that she had made a mess of things, she would probably cry to death.

Yun Zhonghe had no time to dwell on these sentimental matters. He was immersed in the shock of the powerful rival he had just learned about, and his emotions lingered for a long time. "That man looks ordinary, and his physique is also ordinary. He doesn't look muscular at all, but I didn't expect him to be a powerful swordsman."

Qin Hongye nodded: "Some evildoers are not only gifted, but also cunning. They will hide their edge and act in a low-key manner."

It is so low-key that it doesn't even make it to the list and is completely unknown.

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhonghe nodded in agreement.

Many protagonists in novels like to play dumb in their early development, hiding their strength and waiting for the opportunity.

Afterwards, after Qin Hongye’s introduction, Yun Zhonghe and the others discovered many monsters that they didn’t know about.

These people were either the direct disciples of an elder or the successors of a high-ranking powerful person. The highest-ranking one among them was the son of the deputy sect leader - Zhao Lingxiao!

A man dressed in a white robe, always with a gentle smile, polite and courteous to everyone.

Yun Zhonghe saw him greet many ordinary disciples and he had no arrogance at all.

This young hero is said to be an unparalleled genius who can simultaneously cultivate the three paths of magic, talisman cultivation, and spirit pet master, and he has extremely high attainments in each path. At the same time, his own cultivation has reached the Nascent Soul stage!

The seven-patterned golden elixir, the first step into the Nascent Soul, the Nascent Soul has completed the third casting!

Here we have to mention what it means to forge a Nascent Soul.

When a cultivator enters the Nascent Soul stage, the golden elixir will give birth to the Nascent Soul. Strengthening the Nascent Soul can further improve the cultivator's all-round values, making them more powerful in battle.

Forging the Nascent Soul is not a necessary practice. In fact, a long time ago, it was just a special practice. Later, due to its powerful effects, it gradually became popular and eventually evolved into a regular practice method in the world of cultivation today.

There are great risks in forging a Nascent Soul. The more times you forge it, the greater the risk of failure. Once a failure occurs, the Nascent Soul that has been nurtured with great difficulty will be shattered in an instant. Although this will not directly threaten the life of the cultivator, the cultivation level will regress to the peak of the Golden Core state. All the efforts and resources previously invested in forging a Nascent Soul will be wasted, and the Nascent Soul will need to be nurtured all over again.

After all, every successful casting can make the cultivator's combat power achieve a qualitative leap, or even double it. If there are no restrictions on such an increase, it would be simply a heaven-defying existence.

And the son of the deputy sect leader has completed the forging of the primordial spirit three times!

According to Qin Hongye, that person is probably the best among the many disciples of Xuantian Sect!

"Xuantian Sect is indeed one of the ten great immortal sects...it truly is a hidden gem!"

At this moment, even Mu Jixue, who was always confident, couldn't help but speak seriously, with unprecedented solemnity and awe flashing in her eyes.

Mu Jixue has always felt that she is gifted and unmatched.

Zhenren Youyue had praised her outstanding talent many times, which made her self-confidence even greater.

However, what she saw and heard today made her realize that there were many people as evil as her in the Xuantian Sect, and they had practiced even earlier than her and had a deeper foundation!

It might be difficult to win first place.

"Jixue, don't be nervous. You are no worse than them. Besides, we are here. Zhong Yu, Xiao Xiao and I will help you!"

Yun Zhonghe noticed that Mu Jixue clenched her fists and her face showed a rare look of nervousness, so he spoke to comfort her.

"Hmph... Hmph! Of course! You have to help me!"

Hearing Yun Zhonghe's comfort, Mu Jixue's cheeks flushed unconsciously. She crossed her arms, deliberately put on a coquettish attitude, and snorted.

It was as if she was back in the past, but a little different.

How should I put it...I'm very dependent on Yun Zhonghe.

Qin Hongye curled her lips at this, but didn't say much. Instead, she looked at Yun Zhonghe and said, "It's not like you don't have a chance. After all, the rules of this competition stipulate that each team can have a maximum of two inner disciples. Overall, your team's overall strength isn't necessarily inferior to those monstrous geniuses."

Yes, although they are strong individually, this is a team competition. If the teammates are not strong and the cooperation is not good, it will have a great impact on the battle situation.

Several people sat together and talked about the topic lively.

If Qin Hongye had not revealed the news in time, Yun Zhonghe would never have expected that the difficulty of this competition would be so high.

But besides being nervous, I am also looking forward to it. Only by competing with masters can I make progress!

Just as they were chatting animatedly, the sound of a distant gong suddenly came from afar, attracting everyone's attention.

Dang——dang——dang——

The sound of the gong was clear and loud, echoing between heaven and earth. It must be someone's spirit boat that had docked.

Yun Zhonghe and the others followed the sound and saw a massive spirit boat slowly docking at the edge of the White Jade Square. Like a piece of land floating in mid-air, it emitted a faint spiritual light. Immediately afterwards, a large group of people filed off the spirit boat and headed towards the square. The scene was spectacular.

"They are from the Tianjian Sect."

Qin Hongye had sharp eyes and recognized the owner of the spirit boat at a glance.

"Tianjian Sect?" Yun Zhonghe's heart couldn't help but ripple when he heard this.

When mentioning this sect, Yun Zhonghe couldn't help but think of several old friends.

I suddenly felt a little excited.

In the team that went to Qingzhu Town to complete the mission, there was also a female disciple from the Tianjian Sect named Song Ziwei.

They haven't been in touch since they parted in Cangzhou City.

I don’t know if he came this time.

"Is this the Spirit Boat of the Heavenly Sword Sect? It's not simple at all."

"That's right. The Tianjian Sect is also a well-known sect in Dongzhou. Although it has not been ranked among the top ten immortal sects, its strength cannot be underestimated. It is one of the top three powerful sects in Dongzhou. Its strength is self-evident."

"Hey hey hey! Someone is coming down!" Suddenly, someone pointed in the direction of the spirit boat and shouted.

"Wow, everyone is handsome and beautiful."

Disciples from other sects came to visit, and the disciples of Xuantian Sect were also very curious, and a group of people looked towards the spirit boat.

I saw a group of male and female disciples dressed in the uniforms of the Tianjian Sect walking down from the spirit boat. All of them looked heroic, and there was an endless stream of handsome men and beautiful women, which was a feast for the eyes.

At this time, Yun Zhonghe noticed Song Ziwei in the crowd!

Wait, it’s not just Song Ziwei. Yun Zhonghe was also pleasantly surprised to find that the brother and sister from the Xiao family in Cangzhou City - Xiao Yang and Xiao Yue were also among them!

In addition, the shy Asura girl Luo Qing also appeared in his sight surprisingly!

They are all old friends!

Why are they following the Tianjian Sect?

"Huh? It's them?!"

Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu also noticed Song Ziwei and her group slowly walking down from the spirit boat, and their faces showed an expression of disbelief and surprise.

We were all in the same team and had life-long friendships.

Look, Song Ziwei and others also noticed the presence of Yun Zhonghe and others. They waved and greeted them in surprise, their faces filled with joy of reunion after a long separation.

"Brother Yun! Miss Mu! And Miss Lin!"

They ran over excitedly, as if time had gone back at this moment, bringing them back to the time when they fought side by side.

The Qingzhu Town team reunited again.

"Why did you come without saying hello?"

"Hehe, isn't this a surprise for you three?"

A few of them chatted and laughed, and exchanged greetings with each other.

Then he noticed that the cultivation levels of the four of them were very different from when they were in Qingzhu.

Xiao Yang, Xiao Yue and Miss Luo Qing have all successfully established their foundation, and Song Ziwei has even reached the late stage of foundation building, with her strength improving by leaps and bounds.

It's only been about half a year since we last met, and everyone has changed so much!

Xiao Yang touched his nose and said, "Thanks to Brother Yun for sharing all the benefits of the mission with us, we have made rapid progress and are now all disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect."

Mu Jixue suddenly realized: "You all have entered the Tianjian Sect."

Xiao Yue was as playful and cute as ever. She smiled and responded, "Yes, yes, of course I can't compare to you. You've all reached the Golden Core stage. That's too much."

Lin Zhongyu smiled slightly and said modestly, "We were just a little luckier."

The atmosphere was great when old friends got together.
