After leaving the medicine garden, Qi Yuan walked to the main peak of the outer sect.
The main peak is obviously higher than other peaks, especially among the surrounding peaks, it stands out, and the richness of spiritual energy is much higher than other places.
“Junior Brother Qi, what are you doing here?”
As soon as he walked outside the hall, Qi Yuan was stopped by two disciples guarding the door.
After the past few days, he is now famous in the outer sect. The two outer disciples obviously know him, so they speak politely and do not drive him away.
Qi Yuan bowed to the two and directly stated his purpose.
“Brothers, I’m here to see Elder Mo. Please let him know.”
The two guards looked at each other, nodded, and sent someone in to report.
Soon, the disciple came out of the hall and said to Qi Yuan:
“Brother Qi, Elder Mo asked you to come in.”
Qi Yuan thanked him and stepped into the hall.
At this moment, Mo Zhengyang was sitting at the desk, holding a jade brush in his hand, writing something on the golden book.
After hearing the noise, Mo Zhengyang slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on Qi Yuan, and asked kindly:
“Junior Brother Qi, what do you want to see me for?”
He had a good impression of Qi Yuan, the new errand disciple. Not only was his character excellent, but his mind was also smart enough. It was a pity that his aptitude was a little poor, and his path was destined to be difficult…
While thinking, he suddenly exclaimed lightly, and couldn’t help but screamed:
“How come you have reached the fourth level of Qi Refining?”
You should know that the other party was only at the second level of Qi Refining when he first entered the sect. Now, in less than ten days, he has broken through two realms and reached the fourth level of Qi Refining. The speed of cultivation is simply unheard of!
Is this the fourth spiritual root?
Qi Yuan smiled modestly and said:
“The fifty high-grade Soul Gathering Pills you gave me last time really worked. After eating them, I felt full of spiritual power and energy. Fortunately, I broke through two levels.”
Hearing this, Mo Zhengyang twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that the Soul Gathering Pills did not have the ability to allow a cultivator with four spiritual roots to advance two levels in ten days.
Although he was confused, he did not dwell on it, but looked at Qi Yuan again and said:
“You must have something else to talk to me about today, right?”
Qi Yuan replied respectfully:
“Junior came here to ask for something.”
“Tell me.”
Mo Zhengyang raised his eyebrows slightly, waiting for the next words.
Qi Yuan nodded, smiled slightly and said:
“I heard that the sect will hold an outer sect competition in half a month, and the top ten in the competition can directly enter the inner sect. I can’t help but yearn for it. I hope to participate in this competition. I hope you can allow it.”
“You want to participate in the outer sect competition?”
Hearing this, Mo Zhengyang was a little surprised and looked at him deeply. “Although the sect does not prohibit menial disciples from participating in the competition, you disciples have just entered the sect. It’s a bit reluctant to participate in the competition this year, right?”
As if afraid that Qi Yuan was not clear about the situation, Mo Zhengyang stroked his beard and continued to explain:
“According to past years’ experience, to enter the top ten one must have at least the ninth level of Qi Refining. Your current level is only the fourth level of Qi Refining. If you participate rashly, you may not even make it through the first round.”
Qi Yuan’s expression remained unchanged, and he said seriously:
“Junior just wants to see the world in the competition. It doesn’t matter whether I can win or not. The important thing is to participate.”
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Mo Zhengyang stopped trying to dissuade him, nodded and said:
“Well, since you insist on giving it a try, then I will give you this opportunity. You can take my token to Deacon Niu to sign up later.”
Qi Yuan was immediately delighted, “Thank you, Uncle Mo, for your help.”
Mo Zhengyang said no more, threw a token to Qi Yuan and waved his hand and said:
“You go down and prepare first.”
…….
After leaving the main peak, Qi Yuan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Even if this system task was not refreshed, he would find a way to enter the inner gate of Luoyun Valley as soon as possible.
After becoming an inner gate disciple, he can leave Luoyun Valley on the pretext of doing sect tasks or going out for travel, and he doesn’t have to worry about affecting subsequent tasks. It can be said to be a choice that kills two birds with one stone.
Of course, the most important point is that the additional rewards for this task are too attractive to him, and there is no reason to give up.
Thinking of this, he put aside his distracting thoughts and immersed himself in the system interface again:
“In half a month, Luoyun Valley will hold its annual outer sect competition. The top ten in the competition will not only be able to enter the inner sect directly, but also receive corresponding rewards. For you, this is an important opportunity to escape the fate of menial work”
“Note: This task is an open task and can be abandoned voluntarily”
“Task goal: Qualify for the outer sect competition and get the top ten in the competition”
“Additional reward conditions: Shock everyone in the outer sect competition and win the first place”
“Task reward: 500 counterattack points, 15 top-grade Qi Gathering Pills, one top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, and 1,000 lower-grade spirit stones”
“Additional reward: Appropriately improve the host’s spiritual root qualifications”
Raise your spiritual roots and qualifications again!
After the last improvement, Qi Yuan’s spiritual roots are now very outrageous. He dare not imagine how terrifying his potential will be if he improves again.
Perhaps, it is really possible to touch the legendary realm of immortal spiritual roots!
A cultivator who does not want to become an immortal is not a good cultivator, and Qi Yuan is no exception.
However, according to the records inside Taixuan Holy Land, although the Taoism in this world is prosperous and strong people are emerging, no cultivator has ascended to the immortal world for hundreds of thousands of years.
Even if there are peerless geniuses who have passed through many Tao disasters and reached the Mahayana, they will still be trapped in this world and unable to transcend.
Therefore, many Mahayana cultivators who have reached perfection will choose to leave this world and exile themselves in the endless void, looking for a chance to become immortals.
There are even rumors that unless someone is born with immortal roots or immortal fate, ordinary mortals will never be able to become immortals.
Immortal fate is too illusory, and immortal roots are hard to come by in ten thousand years. Even if there are as many creatures in the world as the sands of the Ganges, few people can achieve immortal status and live forever.
Although Mahayana cultivators can be said to have great magical powers and long lifespans, they cannot resist the vicissitudes of life and the erosion of time. Even if they can live for tens of thousands of years, they will eventually die and end up with nothing.
No one is willing to bear such an ending.
Now that the opportunity to continue strengthening his spiritual roots is right in front of him, how can he miss it?
After a surge of emotion, Qi Yuan calmed down and walked towards his residence humming a little tune.
Just then.
A giant tiger with a fiery red body suddenly appeared in a remote dense forest ahead. The tiger was huge, about 70 to 80 feet long, with red smoke billowing all over its body, and a terrifying murderous aura.
“Roar!”
The giant tiger roared majestically, opened its bloody mouth, and pounced towards this side with its fangs and claws bared…
