Elder Yin walked into Li Shiming's cave with a faint smile on his face.

Li Shiming placed a cup of spiritual tea in front of Elder Yin. He did not grow spiritual fruits, so he could only serve spiritual tea to his guests.

"Shiming, please sit down!" Elder Yin waved his hand.

Li Shiming sat opposite Elder Yin with a very respectful attitude.

"I was not aware of the last time I asked you to participate in the duel with Bei Shu, otherwise I would never have let you participate in such a duel. Those old guys didn't send their own descendants to participate, so why should they let you participate!" Elder Yin explained first.

Li Shiming felt warm at heart when he said this. No matter what, Elder Yin was a Jindan elder. His explanation to Li Shiming was a sign of treating him as a true junior.

Li Shiming felt the love that Elder Yin had for his family, which was not like the slight rejection he felt when they met before. Li Shiming was extremely sensitive in this regard.

"Before you participated in the Beishu competition, I left the sect to find Lan'er's teacher. I contacted Lan'er's teacher not long ago. There are some things I need to explain to you!" Elder Yin said solemnly.

Li Shiming sat up straight and stared at Elder Yin. He understood that this must be a matter of great importance, otherwise Elder Yin would not have come in person.

"I have obtained more intelligence from Teacher Lan'er from Beishu. To tell you the truth, we and the cultivators from Beishu are all waiting. There is a fake infant in the Mingxin Sect of Beishu. Currently, the fake infant's ancestor is still in Beishu and fighting against the Senluo Sect, buying time for the sect to withdraw safely.

If the False Infant Ancestor dies, the invasion of the Seven Sects by the Mingxin Sect of Northern Shu will be interrupted, and the Mingxin Sect will never start a war that it cannot win.

Once the Fake Infant Ancestor arrives, the Seven Sects will not resist, and will either disband or find a new place to stay!" Yin Chang said in a serious tone.

Li Shiming was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect that Elder Yin would come to tell him this on purpose. You have to know that such news, let alone him, even the foundation-building cultivators in the sect probably are not qualified to know.

"Is the Fake Infant Ancestor very strong?" he asked with some confusion.

"A fake infant uses a special secret method to forcibly break the elixir and become an infant. It no longer has room to grow, and its lifespan will not be as long as that of a Nascent Soul cultivator. So it cannot be considered a true Nascent Soul cultivator. But in terms of strength, it is only one point weaker than a true Nascent Soul cultivator, and much stronger than Golden Core cultivators like us. It is probably similar to the difference between Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining." Elder Yin explained for him.

Li Shiming truly understood the strength of the fake infant. No wonder the seven sects' Jindan elders gave up the fight directly.

“Don’t think that we don’t want to resist, but it’s meaningless. The power of the Fake Infant cultivator is not something the Seven Sects can withstand. Currently, the Seven Sects and Mingxin Sect are waiting for the final result.

The sect also has some plans for potential monks. Some of them will be sent to another station across the land in advance. There are good spiritual veins there, and they can persist there for a while. "Elder Yin said this and looked at Li Shiming.

"Uncle Yin, I don't want to go over there!" Li Shiming shook his head. He didn't have much sense of belonging to the sect. Besides, the sect's help in his cultivation was decreasing.

After losing the sect's protection, Tianhai Sect was dispensable to him for a long time.

This was on the premise that he had mastered a main technique, and he also had a considerable accumulation of spirit stones, which enabled him to live a comfortable life at least during the foundation-building period.

Of course, he still needs the sect. When he wants to enter the higher level of Jindan stage, without the help of the sect, he would probably find it difficult to get even the third grade materials.

However, it is believed that the Tianhai Sect, having lost its headquarters, will no longer be able to maintain the cultivation of golden elixirs.

Moreover, going to another base is not safe. Once the Mingxin Sect has complete control over this area, how could it tolerate the existence of other forces in this area?

"If it weren't for the strength you showed in the previous fight, I would have included you in the plan of early transfer. Now I'm giving you another choice!" Elder Yin said with a helpless smile.

He knew that Li Shiming had had a rift with some forces in the sect, and the infighting within the sect had reduced Li Shiming's sense of belonging to the sect.

Li Shiming's choice was not unexpected to him. Even as a Jindan elder of the sect, he was powerless to stop the struggle among the internal forces of the sect.

But none of this matters anymore. Once they really have to evacuate, these forces will immediately collapse and become insignificant.

"Uncle Yin, please speak!" Li Shiming knew that Elder Yin was about to tell the key point of this meeting.

“Lan’er’s teacher is the master of the Jindan formation of the Qianhuan Sect of Beishu. She came here for a treasure from the North Sea. Due to the invasion of the Mingxin Sect, she did not want to be involved in the conflict with the Mingxin Sect, so she meant to take Lan’er to Beishu to join the Qianhuan Sect…” Elder Yin said here and saw that Li Shiming’s expression changed.

Li Shiming was very conflicted. Yin Shilan had a better future, which was something to be happy about.

But Yin Shilan went to Beishu, and he might never see Yin Shilan again. This was something he could not accept.

"With your aptitude of three spiritual roots, even with the qualification of an intermediate formation master, you cannot meet the requirements to join the Thousand Illusions Sect. However, you have comprehended the sword intent, so I give you a chance. As long as Teacher Lan'er agrees, you can get the opportunity to become an ordinary disciple of the Thousand Illusions Sect!" Elder Yin continued.

Li Shiming did not expect such an opportunity, but he still had some concerns. You know, there was a war going on in Northern Shu, and even Nascent Soul was involved in it. It is conceivable that the intensity of the battle was far beyond his imagination.

"Uncle Yin, what kind of sect is the Qianhuan Sect?" Li Shiming asked.

Elder Yin smiled, very satisfied that Li Shiming did not accept it unconditionally. If he wanted to go further in the world of immortal cultivation, he would need to think more and make the right choice.

"The Qianhuan Sect is a large sect with a Nascent Soul ancestor. It ranks among the top in Beishu. As for the chaos in Beishu, I have also inquired about it clearly. The chaos only occurred in the Shiwan Mountains area. The Senluo Sect does not dare to expand its battle line to the area outside the Shiwan Mountains!" Elder Yin replied patiently.

"Thank you Uncle Yin!" Li Shiming made his choice. Joining the Qianhuan Sect was something he could accept.

In this way, he wouldn't have to part with Yin Shilan and could still enjoy the convenience of a large sect.

"Don't thank me first. I will take you to see Lan'er's teacher right away. She will decide whether to give you the qualifications to join the sect!" Elder Yin waved his hand.

Elder Yin stood up and took Li Shiming away from Eagle's Beak Island and flew towards Jiufeng.

Li Shiming, led by Elder Yin, landed directly outside a cave on the top of Jiufeng Mountain.

Elder Yin shot out a ray of light that fell on the magic circle of the cave. After waiting for a while, the magic circle of the cave opened.

"Friend Yin, please come in!" A pleasant female voice came and sounded in Li Shiming's ears.

Elder Yin nodded to Li Shiming, motioning Li Shiming to follow, and then entered the cave.

When Li Shiming walked into the cave, his first feeling was the extremely rich spiritual energy. The spiritual energy here was so rich that it flowed into his body through his pores almost every time he breathed.

The concentration of spiritual energy here has reached a level that he cannot describe. Perhaps he does not even need to practice here, just sleeping every day can improve from the initial stage of Qi Refining to the peak of Qi Refining.

In the living room of the cave, a beautiful and charming woman who looked to be in her thirties was greeting Elder Yin with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, I have brought Li Shiming here, please take a look!" Elder Yin was very humble. Both of them were Jindan cultivators, but it was obvious that the female Jindan cultivator named Luo made Elder Yin respectful no matter the sect behind her or her identity as a formation master.

Not to mention that his daughter will ask the female Jindan cultivator named Luo to take care of her in the future. As a father, it is not shameful for Elder Yin to lower his posture.

"Shiming, come here and pay your respects!" He turned to Li Shiming and reminded him.

"Li Shiming greets Senior Luo!" Li Shiming bowed and saluted.

Master Luo turned his gaze towards Li Shiming, who also looked up after saluting. Their eyes met, and Master Luo activated the Starlight Sea formation.

Li Shiming felt the starry sea of ​​Master Luo's formation, which was a stretch of mountains and rivers, like a landscape painting.

Master Luo's formation, the sea of ​​starlight, is alive. There are trees on the mountains in the landscape painting, and the mountain breeze blows through the trees, and the trees move with the wind; there are fish in the water, and the wind blows the waves, and the fish can be vaguely seen swimming.

All of this is so real, just like a real world of mountains and rivers.

"This is the master's formation, the sea of ​​​​starlight!" Li Shiming exclaimed in his heart.

Any mountain or water in the sea of ​​starlight is composed of countless stars. The knowledge of formations mastered by Master Luo can be described as vast.

What’s even more terrifying is that these starlights blend into each other and transform into real mountains and rivers, conforming to some natural rules of heaven and earth.

Master Luo activated the Starlight Sea formation just to observe Li Shiming's Starlight Sea formation.

She agreed to investigate Li Shiming's situation, not entirely because of Elder Yin's request, but also because of her disciple Yin Shilan's pleading, which made her relent.

Even though she is the formation master of Qianhuan Sect, the number of places she has for admission to the sect is limited.

The reason why large sects have been able to stand in the world of immortal cultivation for countless years is because of their strict management systems.

Perhaps Elder Yin was very concerned about Li Shiming's mastery of the sword intent during the Qi Refining Stage, but Master Luo, a master of formations, did not care about the sword intent at all. What she cared about most was the degree of mastery of the formations.

You know, Yin Shilan had said a lot of good things about Li Shiming in front of her, so she became a little curious about Li Shiming.

Yin Shilan has amazing talent. She has natural spiritual roots and a rare aptitude for formations. Even though Yin Shilan is a member of the Tianhai Sect, she still accepts Yin Shilan as her disciple.

Taking advantage of the invasion of the Mingxin Sect of Northern Shu, Master Luo can bring Yin Shilan back to the Qianhuan Sect and officially accept Yin Shilan as his personal disciple.

Master Luo's formation, the Sea of ​​Starlight, triggered Li Shiming's formation, the Sea of ​​Starlight.

This allowed her to observe Li Shiming's formation, the Starry Sea. She was a little surprised by the strangeness of Li Shiming's formation, and she could not recognize what Li Shiming's formation, the Starry Sea, was.

But she could sense that the potential of this formation's starlight sea was huge, and to some extent, its potential even exceeded that of her landscape formation's starlight sea.

This is the limitation of different worldviews. Even though Master Luo is a Jindan cultivator, her understanding of the world is what she sees.

Perhaps in her understanding, the starry sea of ​​the formation formed a world of mountains and rivers, which is her greatest understanding of the world.

But Li Shiming was different. From his research on the universe in his previous life, he knew the operating mode of the universe. That was his greatest understanding of the world, so his formation, the Starlight Sea, naturally changed in that direction.

"You have become a high-level formation master!" Master Luo said with some surprise.

This was not a question to Li Shiming, but a tone of confirmation.

Although Li Shiming's formation, Starlight Sea, is strange, it has essentially reached the level of a high-level formation master.

Master Luo looked at Li Shiming again, and a look of pity appeared in her eyes.

Li Shiming's talent is really too poor. His three spiritual roots can only be considered ordinary. The probability of breaking through to the Golden Core Stage with his three spiritual roots is too low.

No matter how good Li Shiming's talent in formation is, his life span after reaching the foundation-building stage is only two hundred years.

"Li Shiming, you have a good talent for formations. This is the entry token of Qianhuan Sect. With the entry token, you can enter Qianhuan Sect and become a formal disciple!" Master Luo took out a jade token with a special mark and handed it to Li Shiming.

Elder Yin standing by showed a look of joy. It was a perfect thing for Li Shiming to join the Qianhuan Sect.

Otherwise, Yin Shilan would never agree to leave. If Yin Shilan did not leave with Master Luo now, he would be worried about her future safety.

"Okay, take the token and go out!" Master Luo said, waving his hand.

"Thank you, Senior Luo!" Li Shiming bowed to express his gratitude and left the cave.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, when will you return to the sect?" Elder Yin gestured to Li Shiming to wait for him outside and asked Master Luo.

"Lan'er has been too stubborn in recent days!" Master Luo said helplessly yet dotingly when he mentioned Yin Shilan.

If it weren't for Yin Shilan's stubbornness and her constant thinking about Li Shiming, she would have taken Yin Shilan away long ago.

"Then how did Li Shiming go to Beishu?" Hearing that Master Luo did not mention Li Shiming, Elder Yin asked again.

"If he can't even do this, what qualifications does he have to join the Qianhuan Sect?" Master Luo had no intention of taking Li Shiming away with him.

She would not let Li Shiming and Yin Shilan leave together. She would accept Yin Shilan as her personal disciple. For a long time to come, Yin Shilan's top priority would be to study.

Although she agreed to let Li Shiming join the Qianhuan Sect, if Li Shiming could join the Qianhuan Sect later, it would give Yin Shilan more quiet study time.

Elder Yin said nothing more. He also saw Master Luo's persistence. There was still a way for Li Shiming to go to Beishu, but it would be very troublesome.

Now that we have obtained the most difficult qualifications for joining the sect, it doesn’t matter how troublesome it is.
