"Then we will listen to our master and wait until his luck is almost exhausted before we take action."

Duoduo was very aware of the situation and agreed readily.

"Master, I want to follow you openly."

Whirlwind muttered.

"No rush. Once the competition is over and Lian Xiye leaves Yuntian Sect, I will find an excuse to leave the sect. I will bring you back next time and say that you are my contracted monster."

Ripple said as he touched Tornado's head.

The purpose of her doing this was to confirm her identity as a human. After all, there has never been a case of a demon contracting with another demon.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Master."

After Lianyi communicated with Xuanfeng and Duoduo, she continued to carve the jade slips. When she was tired, she drew talismans, filling her time.

Lian Xiye's face darkened after he returned to his cave. He secretly hated Feng Shuying for being more of a hindrance than a help. Now he could only concentrate on preparing for the sect competition to restore his reputation.

After Lian Xiye swallowed a pill, he sat cross-legged in meditation and began to absorb the medicinal power. It didn't take him long to successfully advance to the middle stage of the Golden Core. However, he knew that this was not enough. Without the cultivation of the late Golden Core, it would be a pipe dream to want to enter the top ten of the Golden Core group.

So he decided to take a gamble and used all the spirit stones and elixirs on his body to force his way to the late stage of Jindan. Fortunately, he was lucky and had a solid foundation, so he succeeded in the end. Everything was originally developing in a good direction, but it was inexplicably destroyed. However, the more it was at this time, the more he had to stay stable.

On the day before the competition officially began, Lian Xiye stabilized his cultivation at the late Jindan stage. Relying on such cultivation, he passed all the levels and entered the top 30 of the Jindan group. What followed was the real competition of the Jindan stage.

Those who were weak and lacked cultivation had been eliminated in the previous rounds. The remaining people were all real talents, so the competition in the Jindan stage group was very exciting.

Some people even opened a betting pool in secret, and Lian Xiye was also a popular candidate. After all, he took a year to advance from the early Jindan stage to the late Jindan stage, so he was still quite popular.

After half a month of competition, Lian Xiye finally stopped at the level of 30 to 15. His shortcomings were exposed during the competition. After all, his cultivation was forcefully improved, so it was a bit superficial. Moreover, he only focused on improving his cultivation without accumulating actual combat experience.

It was not obvious when he was competing with fellow disciples with lower cultivation levels, but it was exposed when he was competing with those veteran Jindan cultivators, so he was easily knocked off the ring and stopped in the top 15.

Lian Xiye was quite satisfied with his result. Although he lost the opportunity to become a disciple, it allowed everyone to see his strength, which was not a bad thing for him.

After the sect competition was over, Lian Xiye called up a few friends and prepared to go out to complete the sect's mission. In fact, his storage bag was empty and he could no longer stay in the cave to practice.

Not long after Lian Xiye left, Lian Yi came out of seclusion. After completing three years of talisman-making tasks, she came to say goodbye to Master Fu Feng.

"Master Fu Feng, I have now advanced to the God Transformation Stage and am ready to return home to visit my family and complete the mission of being a God Transformation Stage elder in the sect."

"That's good. Now that you have become a god, you should take care of the family. If necessary, you can use the name of Yuntian Sect Fu Feng to act."

Elder Fu said with a smile.

"Thank you for the reminder, Master Fu Feng. I will try to go and come back as soon as possible."

Lianyi said with a smile, then went to the mission office to receive the sect mission and left Yuntian Sect.

After Lian Yi left the sect, he slowly fell behind Lian Xiye and his group, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Lian Xiye and his three fellow disciples planned to go to Yunguang Mountain to pick spiritual plants for refining Nascent Soul Pills. This was the result of a discussion among the four.

Because the four of them were all in the late Jindan stage, it was necessary to prepare Yuanying Pills in advance. After picking enough spiritual plants to refine Yuanying Pills and handing them in to the sect, they could receive a Yuanying Pill from the sect. This was the benefit of the Yuntian Sect to the sect disciples, but three spiritual plants for refining could be exchanged for one Yuanying Pill.

Lianyi guessed their destination based on the direction they were going, so she waited in Yunguang Mountain in advance to meet them by chance.

Ripples appeared on her face, and she changed into a bright and flamboyant one. The red fairy dress with dark patterns on her body made her look more extraordinary. As usual, flowers were pinned in her hair. She suppressed her cultivation to the late Jindan stage, and after releasing the whirlwind, she began to pick spiritual plants for refining Yuanying Dan in Yunguang Mountain.

The two sides met again three days later, and this time they had the same target, the Yuanying Fruit Tree.

There was a fifth-level six-armed ape guarding next to the Yuanying Fruit Tree. It had beaten Lian Xiye and his group severely before, so now they could only watch from afar and did not dare to get close easily. It was because the opponent's fists were too hard and their small bodies could not withstand it.

Lian Xiye wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the Yuanying fruit tree with some reluctance. The fruits on the tree were about to ripen. If they were not picked, they would end up in the mouth of the six-armed ape. He was anxious, but he had no better solution for the moment as the gap in strength was too big.

"Xiye, there is someone over there, and it seems that he is also coming for the Yuanying Fruit Tree."

Du Yan whispered that she had three spiritual roots of earth, wood and gold, among which the wood spiritual root was the thickest, so she was born with an affinity for plants. The plants conveyed information to her, allowing her to discover the ripples hidden nearby.

"How many people?"

Lian Xiye asked via voice transmission.

"one person."

"How is your cultivation?"

"It's similar to us, but it seems that the other party has wood spiritual roots and is very good at camouflage. If the plants hadn't tipped me off, I wouldn't have discovered it."

When Lian Xiye heard that there was only one person, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were the ones who discovered this place. If someone else had picked the peaches, he would definitely cry to death.

"Let's leave here first and see what the other party wants to do."

Lian Xiye sent a message to a few people saying that he actually wanted to see if there was a chance to take advantage of the situation. If that didn't work, he would consider joining forces.

After the four people retreated, Lianyi pretended to observe for a while. After knowing what the four people were thinking, she waited for a long time and then rushed forward with the whip transformed from Duoduo.

When the six-armed ape saw that another human was coveting his fruit, he howled in anger, patted his chest, and took turns hitting Lianyi with his six fists, vowing to beat her into a meat pie.

Lianyi moved in a graceful and erratic manner, and managed to avoid being hit by the six-armed ape's fist, causing the six-armed ape to scream and chase Lianyi even more happily, gradually moving away from the Yuanying Fruit Tree.

"Everyone get ready, the opportunity has come."

Lian Xiye said with his eyes lighting up.

"yes!"

The other three people slapped breath-suppressing talismans on themselves and slowly moved over with swords in hand.

At this time, Lianyi and the six-armed ape were both standing next to the Yuanying fruit tree, and they were not fighting as the four people had seen.

After Lianyi released her seventh-level pressure earlier, the six-armed ape stood in front of Lianyi obediently, with a flattering smile on its monkey face.

"Sir, how come you have time to come to Yunguang Mountain? Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Acting with me in a play will definitely benefit you, but you have to act more realistically." (End of this chapter)
