Ye Xiaoman is a famously honest person in the cultivation world. She is loyal and reliable, dedicated to her work, and always shows concern for every handsome young man.
After her undercover ...
Chapter 711 Stargazing Tower
I had a good chance of winning this year, but who would have thought that a brilliant seed player would suddenly appear in the world where I had been at the bottom for thousands of years.
"We got the intelligence."
"I didn't have time to investigate thoroughly, so I paid money to buy it from the information dealer of the Huantian Chamber of Commerce."
A colleague handed a stack of information to the teaching elder. In addition to Ye Xiaoman, there was also information about other competitors, and Xiao Chujing was also on the list.
The Great Elder looked at Ye Xiaoman first.
The first line of the document read in black and white:
"In the eyes of her fellow disciples, Ye Xiaoman is a well-known honest person in the surrounding area. She is simple and diligent, working from dawn to dusk in her cultivation. She remains unmoved by the frantic pursuit of her outstanding fellow disciples. Her unwavering resolve is truly a model of righteousness, worthy of emulation by all... What nonsense! Was this written by one of Ye Xiaoman's admirers?"
"How did she turn her useless spiritual roots into treasure? How did she advance from the Qi Refining Stage to the Core Forming Stage in less than a year? Can I obtain the secret manuals and techniques she has and use them for my own benefit? This is what we need to pay most attention to."
A colleague said, "Everything about her is a secret. This is all the information we have at the moment."
The Great Elder pondered: "Top-grade golden elixir is very difficult to obtain."
"Humph." Several demons immediately said, "Since the human world is determined to fight with us, don't blame us for being ruthless."
Someone responded: "You mean..."
The person who answered the call made a gesture as if he was breaking his neck.
"Yes, our Tianjiao will fight those who can defeat them. As elders, we have the obligation to clear out the strong enemies in advance and pave the way for the Tianjiao."
"Only those foolish humans think the Six Realms Contest is a fair game. The real competition takes place outside the arena!"
"That's right. It's a competition of comprehensive strength. Whether you can protect your subordinates before the game is also a reflection of the strength of all parties."
Judging from the familiarity with which the demons chatted, they had used this cheating method more than once or twice.
"Who should go this time?"
The demon instructors were in a bit of a dilemma. The demons had used too many tricks, and before every competition, potential players from all walks of life died. This had caused widespread vigilance.
Therefore, before the competition, each domain will send out capable masters to protect the young seedlings of their own tribe.
The demons' little tricks are gradually becoming less effective.
If he wants to commit crimes again this time, he must persuade the masters of the demon clan to attack, only then will he have a chance of success.
The teaching elder suddenly thought of a perfect candidate.
"We can ask Xuanyou Demon Ancestor to come out of the mountains."
After he finished speaking, his colleagues unanimously objected.
"Although Xuanyou Demon Ancestor is one of the best masters of my demon clan, he has been in seclusion for ten years. He is arrogant and aloof. He even refused to listen to the call of the Demon Lord. He would not bother to take action for such a trivial matter."
The Great Elder was confident: "As long as the benefits are great enough, there is no need to worry about the ancestors not coming out."
"What benefits?"
The Great Elder lowered his voice to share his information. Even though he was a powerful figure among the demons, he was still deeply wary of the name he mentioned.
"Ever since the Demonic Pill was shattered, the Xuanyou Demon Ancestor has been searching for a suitable source of pills to repair it."
"Haha." The demons' eyes lit up. "This is the only supreme golden elixir in the world. It would be hard for the Demon Ancestor to refuse."
The Great Elder crumpled the information of the genius in the world into a ball.
"Hmph, the path of immortal cultivation is nothing more than the strong plundering the weak to nourish themselves. As for Ye Xiaoman, being a tall tree attracts the wind. If she dies an untimely death, it's only natural. It would be difficult for others to find evidence to prove that we, the demons, were responsible."
"What are you still standing there for? Go and ask for help from the Demon Ancestor Xuanyou."
The top of Kunlun Mountain is a paradise on earth.
A disciple of Qianji Sect, holding an armful of bamboo slips, walked up the cloud ladder with heavy steps towards the Observatory.
Above the clouds, there is a vast fairy palace floating. The highest point is the Observatory, the closest place to the stars in the world.
When you climb the tower at night, it feels like you can pick the stars with your hands.
The disciple used the token to open the gate, and the door of the Green Jade Hall opened to the left and right. The ancient door seemed to have not been opened for a long time. When it moved, it seemed as if thick dust was raised. Even the air that blew in the face had a stale smell, as if it had not flowed for many years.
It smells like old books.
"Master."
The disciple stood at the door and called out softly.
Behind and in front of him was complete darkness, with only the light from the small lantern in his hand illuminating the tiny area of ground in front of him.
The entire space was like an ancient tomb, lifeless and silent, with no sign of any living people present.
Every time I come here, I feel very creepy. Every time Qianjimen has important matters to report to Shi Zaixing, the disciples have to draw lots to come here.
The disciple shouted a few times, but there was no response in the darkness.
The disciple thought of Shi Zaixing's appearance that showed his life was coming to an end, and he had an ominous premonition. He suppressed his fear, walked into the dark temple door that was like a beast's mouth, calculated with his fingers where Shi Zaixing might be, and walked towards the calculated place.
"Sheng Gua, Sheng Gua, don't panic, the person is still alive."
"It should be on the long couch behind the tenth bookshelf."
The disciple muttered to himself, his body looking as small as an ant against the backdrop of the rows of huge bookshelves.
On the high dome above, the dark sky is filled with bright stars, which looks extremely brilliant and beautiful. Strangely, such bright light cannot penetrate the darkness below at all, as if two worlds go their own ways.
The disciple walked past seemingly endless rows of bookshelves, and with the light of the lantern, he finally found a vague human figure in the middle of two rows of bookshelves.
"Master." The disciple raised his voice a little.
The human figure didn't move.
The disciple moved the lantern closer.
Now he could finally see clearly what seemed to be a back in front of him, lying on the long couch with its back to him. He could not see the face, only the orange light of the lantern floating on the long hair, with sporadic dancing colors. The hair was so long and so thick, so horribly long, hanging down from the couch and all the way to the ground.
You could vaguely see a corner of her shoulder sticking out from her long hair. She was so thin that her bones looked sharp, as if all the nutrients in her body had been sucked away by her long hair, which was so beautiful that it was almost enchanting.
The disciple couldn't feel Shi Zaixing's breath and panicked, "Master, are you dead?"
He wanted to go forward and check Shi Zaixing's breathing.
The long curtain of hair finally moved, shining brightly.
"lamp……"
The weak voice sounded very softly and faintly, like the wind turning over a yellowed ancient book, almost inaudible.
"S-Sorry, Sect Master!"
The disciple then remembered that Shi Zai Xingjiu had been in the dark for a long time, just like an underwater animal that could not withstand strong light, so he quickly extinguished the lantern.
Darkness returned to my eyes.
"Cough cough cough..." Shi Zaixing started coughing violently, as if saying a word had consumed all his strength.
