"The demons have infiltrated, report to the leader immediately!"
The elder who managed the library checked every corner of the building and found a little bit of dark spiritual energy residue on the fragments of the crystal ball.
"Give the order, martial law is in effect throughout the sect!"
Not long after Rong Yubai and his companions returned to their residence, they heard a commotion outside.
"Open the mountain protection barrier, no one is allowed to enter or leave..."
"Two teams will go to patrol the back mountain, and the rest will be assigned to the various peaks."
All the disciples of Taiqing Sect were mobilized.
"In this situation... is someone going to attack Taiqing Sect?" Hai Yan asked in confusion.
"My fellow Daoists, demons have entered the mountain. To protect your safety, please do not wander around here."
A young disciple happened to come and solve the problem.
Several people looked at each other.
"The demons they are talking about, could they be related to the crystal ball being broken just now?" Hai Yan looked at Chan Bei silently.
"Did you break that crystal ball?" Chanbei looked up at Heiyun.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Heiyun hummed, expanded and contracted twice, then turned away and ignored them.
After two days of searching, no trace of the demons was found, and the ban was lifted on the third day.
However, the library has increased patrols, so I can't sneak in to look for books, I can only go there openly.
"Is this the book for Young Friend Rong to practice?" Upon hearing this, the Sect Master smiled and said, "Let's test your spiritual roots first so we can teach you according to your aptitude."
He asked someone to bring a spirit-testing ball.
Rong Yubai and Hai Yan both took the test, and when it came to the time of interpretation, he waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, I don't have any spiritual roots, and I don't have the heart to practice."
If it gets blown up again, everyone will know that they are the thieves in the library.
With two geniuses, the headmaster did not force them. He looked at Rong Yubai and Hai Yan and smiled kindly.
"My two young friends, are you willing to join my Taiqing Sect? My Taiqing Sect is one of the top three sects in Zhongzhou. We have abundant cultivation resources and will definitely not treat you unfairly."
"I'm sorry, Master. We already have a place to go and we're sorry to let you down." Rong Yubai refused without a second thought.
The headmaster frowned and was about to ask when he heard Hai Yan say:
"The one coming with us is our Master. This journey is the beginning of our cultivation."
He had rehearsed this excuse in his mind countless times and finally he could say it.
Hai Yan raised an eyebrow at Rong Yubai, who curled his lips and nodded in affirmation.
Thinking about the cultivation level of the man that even he couldn't see through, the headmaster gave up the idea of forcing the two men to become his disciples.
With the approval of the headmaster, they can enter and leave the library freely for five days.
For Rong Chaoxi, who has a photographic memory, this is enough.
Without anyone to teach them, they didn't know what kind of martial arts suited them. They would just give the book they thought was good to Chaoxi to record.
After five days, they had read half of the books in the library.
"Chao Xi, is this the kind of grass you are looking for?" Rong Yubai saw the word "Chi Zhen" in a pile of waste books.
Rong Chaoxi looked at the pattern and instructions carefully, "This is it." The little guy's eyes were full of joy.
I took the book to ask, and after several instructions, I learned that the book was obtained from the home of the lord of Ancheng City in the mortal realm.
Several people immediately set off for Ding'an City.
…
The spiritual world is divided into four areas: the immortal mountains for cultivation, the mortal cities, the sea monsters, and the abyss demons.
Although most of the people in the mortal world are mortals who cannot practice cultivation or lack talent, there are also many independent cultivators living here.
Taking the city lord’s mansion of each city as an example, although the city lord is not as good as the cultivators on the fairy mountain, his cultivation is also in the realm of soaring clouds. It’s just that he has reached the peak and can’t make any further progress, so he returns to the mortal world.
Ding'an City Lord's Mansion.
"It's worthy of being the spiritual world. Even the mortal world is more luxurious and magnificent than the towns in the mortal world." Standing in front of the towering gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Hai Yan exclaimed in admiration again.
"Chao Xi, is the God's Realm more magnificent than this? Is it like what is described in the storybooks, with melodious bells and misty clouds?" He couldn't help but wonder what the God's Realm would be like.
"The divine realm... is boring. It's just a bunch of elite people who have practiced for thousands of years. They don't sleep every day. They are either practicing or cultivating. They are always thinking about establishing another organization to replace the Heavenly Palace." The little guy sneered.
"However, Tiangong is very fun, and the big leaves are so interesting..." When talking about Tiangong, the little guy smiled with curved eyebrows.
"She's been to another world and learned a lot of interesting games there. Besides work, everyone in the Heavenly Palace gathers together every day to play games and chat about gossip..."
As he spoke, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion opened again.
"Everyone, please come in."
Because he had received a letter from the head of the Taiqing Sect, the city lord received him personally.
When we arrived at the main hall, the city lord was already waiting there. He was a calm young man.
"Everyone wants Red True Grass?" he asked straight to the point.
"That's right." Rong Yubai said, "Please name your price, City Lord."
The city lord looked them over for a few moments and said with a smile, "You all look like you don't have much money, but can you really pay the price I'm asking?"
"..." Rong Yubai chuckled slightly and said, "Dressing and dressing up are all vulgar things. The City Lord should not look down on these things."
He took out a herb that glowed with spiritual light and said, "I have five of these top-grade herbs. Can I exchange them with the city lord for one of the Red True Grass?"
The city lord's eyes lit up slightly, then fell silent. "Although this herb is a rare and top-grade one, the Red True Grass has become extinct..."
The corners of his mouth curled slightly, "I'm afraid it's not enough."
[This person is so cunning. He wants something but won't tell me. He keeps me guessing. It's really troublesome...]
Rong Chaoxi was about to ask directly when Rong Yubai spoke first, "The City Lord is willing to receive us personally. I'm afraid he must have some considerations in mind. Please speak frankly."
After saying that, he took a peach and stuffed it into the little guy's mouth.
Chaoxi has extraordinary abilities, so it’s better not to let too many people know about it.
The Taiqing Sect's unusual care and generosity these days are probably because they have their eyes on Chaoxi's jade pendant. If more people knew about it, it would definitely bring disaster.
Although she was invincible, she could not withstand the siege, and she was carrying three of them with her.
Rong Chaoxi blinked, lowered his head and chewed the peach seriously.
"Young friend, you are very insightful." The city lord smiled and asked, "You are not from the spiritual world, are you?"
Hearing this, the four of them looked at him.
"Don't overthink it, I have no ill intentions." Looking at their wary eyes, the city lord explained:
"Ding'an City is close to the sea, and the City Lord's Mansion will be the first to know about any unusual events at sea."
"The day you appeared out of thin air at sea, there was a strange sign in the sky. It must be the gate to the barrier opening."
He said with a firm expression, "One is in the initial stage of Phoenix, and the other three are mortals. You have come to the mortal world."
No one responded, and the city lord continued:
"According to records, when the three realms separated, the Mortal Realm was a ruin. It was restored to life by the sacrifice of the God of Chaoyang, but it was already a wasteland devoid of spiritual energy."
"How did you guys open the barrier and get here?"
His eyes were shrewd as he scanned the four people one by one, finally stopping at Chan Bei.
"Or, are any of you related to the demons?"
