Yan Yun clearly understood Xiao Feng's thoughts, laughed heartily, and put away her weapon.
"I am Yan Yun, the peak master of the Zhongzhou Lingjian Sect. Is it not beneath you, brat, to become my disciple?"
Xiao Feng had no idea what this title meant, but thinking about it carefully, he thought that if he became an apprentice in the future, he might be able to have such a beautiful female master to teach him, which would not be a bad thing.
"Alright, Master, I agree!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Yun continued speaking.
"Very well then, you may go to the Spirit Sword Sect on your own. The silver I just gave you is enough!"
"This peak master has some matters to attend to, so I will not be traveling with you this time!"
Xiao Feng nodded silently and continued speaking.
"Master, you can leave, but could you leave me a token first? I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Yan Yun had already gone far away, her gauze-like clothes fluttering in the air, making her look like a fairy.
After a moment of reflection, Xiao Feng realized that he hadn't received the token yet.
"Master? How about you come back? By the way, if you don't have a token, a map would be fine too. Where is the Spirit Sword Sect?"
Xiao Feng was completely clueless about this continent; to be honest, he had no idea what he should do.
However, no matter how long Xiao Feng called, Yan Yun showed no intention of returning. Perhaps she simply couldn't hear Xiao Feng's voice.
After a silent internal struggle, Xiao Feng could only resign himself to his fate and decided to go down the mountain to find someone of his kind to ask around.
However, before they had gone far, the system's timely intervention came.
[System notification: The host has obtained a map of the Lingxiao Continent, which marks the location of the Lingjian Sect!]
After the system's prompt, Xiao Feng had a clear outline of the continent in his mind, except for his own location and the three words "Spirit Sword Sect".
The rest of the places were untouched, and some were even marked as top secret. Xiao Feng couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Once I've gained enough strength, I must find out what this so-called top secret is!
A moment later, Xiao Feng embarked on his journey to the Spirit Sword Sect. Although he traveled through mountains and rivers, he was fortunate to have the silver given to him by Yan Yun, which allowed him to at least barely survive.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xiao Feng vaguely saw wisps of smoke rising from the mountains. Only after passing through the mountain winds did he realize that this was a crowd of people.
The Spirit Sword Sect has arrived!
At the foot of Lingjian Mountain, crowds thronged, with countless heads heading towards the mountain peak. Xiao Feng, having no cultivation, had been walking with the aid of a cane the entire way.
I thought that once I got to Lingjian Mountain, I could finally get some rest, but now it seems like that was just wishful thinking.
Left with no other choice, Xiao Feng joined the crowd and they headed towards the sect on Spirit Sword Mountain.
The shoulders of the people around him were pressed against Xiao Feng's body, and Xiao Feng could clearly sense several extraordinary auras among the crowd.
Some people look heroic and extraordinary, so they must have some cultivation.
Feeling the crowds, Xiao Feng couldn't help but complain.
"I'd rather you put it back on. What's the difference between this and squeezing onto a crowded bus?"
On the mountain peak.
Seeing the throng of people, the law enforcement elder also showed a series of expressions of disgust.
It's disgusting that such a group of people would crowd into my sect's sacred ground.
In his view, most of these people were cannon fodder, and even if they managed to make it up, they would not be able to escape the fate of leaving.
After much deliberation, the law enforcement elder decided not to waste any more time and went directly to the sky, his voice booming like a bell to everyone's ears.
"Fellow cultivators, halt in your tracks!"
Upon hearing this, everyone unconsciously looked up at the sky, and a few couldn't help but feel envious.
"Flying through the air, what terrifying power!"
"I hope I can cultivate to this level in the future!"
"Don't get your hopes up. Flying through the air is the best method. Being as fast as the wind is already quite good!"
Hearing the whispers around him, Xiao Feng didn't say much, but his booming voice rang out once again.
"Please be patient, everyone!"
After speaking, the law enforcement elder took out the sect's spiritual weapon and quickly shone it on the crowd.
People reflected in the mirror radiate a different kind of light.
Red, yellow, gold, and the most ordinary white light emanating from Xiao Feng's body.
Of course, this only applies to a small number of people; the rest of the people, after being swept by the mirror, did not produce any light.
After scanning all the people, the elder of law enforcement tapped his finger a few times in place. A moment later, Xiao Feng and the other people whose bodies were glowing slowly rose into the air.
"The rest of you should go back. Even if you reach the mountaintop, you won't be able to join a sect!"
Looking at the chosen people, those standing on the ground showed expressions of envy and jealousy. Some even started complaining.
"Damn it, why isn't it me? Is your mirror broken?"
"Exactly! It took me months to get here, why wasn't it me!"
The elder in charge of law enforcement ignored these dissenting voices and instead waved his hand, instantly bringing those people to the foot of the mountain.
Seeing this, Xiao Feng was stunned. What kind of terrifying method was this?
A moment later, Xiao Feng and the others landed back on the ground, and the law enforcement elder also landed slowly, his cold eyes sweeping over everyone.
"You who have gathered together are qualified to accept the challenge and enter the sect!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng couldn't help but mentally mutter a complaint.
The choices have already been made, why the challenge?
"You have all come with me. Only those who can pass through this Heavenly Ladder will be allowed to remain in the sect!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng saw the ordinary staircase and clearly did not think it was anything difficult.
The people around them clearly felt the same way. It's just a few steps. They've come all this way over mountains and valleys, so why can't they walk?
The elder in charge of law enforcement seemed unsurprised by the crowd's reaction, and his indifferent voice rang out.
"If this were an ordinary place, your thoughts wouldn't be problematic. That's all the hints I can give. Let's begin!"
Upon hearing this, several impatient individuals immediately headed towards the Heavenly Ladder. However, their expressions changed the moment they stepped onto the first step.
Xiao Feng was not in a hurry. Instead, he watched silently from the side. Soon, several guys who couldn't keep their composure were forcefully blasted away.
The elder in charge of law enforcement chuckled to himself. Every year there are some fools who think they can easily pass the test.
How ridiculous!
