Chapter 42 Two Years Later



In the blink of an eye, two years have passed since I joined the Sword Inquiry Sect.

—Graduation is today, Wan'er, don't oversleep! After it's over, how about we invite Baili and Aji to go down the mountain for a meal together?

In the early morning, the mountain cliffs outside the window are shrouded in mist, and the flowers on the windowsill are covered with morning dew, slowly blooming while exuding a spiritual aura.

The woman on the bed was lightly dressed. She was awakened by telepathy. Her willow-leaf eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes were just beginning to bloom, as clear as autumn water. With a slight lift of her hand, she gathered her long hair, which had fallen behind her, into a green ring bun.

The hairpin she used was the one she liked best from the box that Shen Zhuochuan had sent her.

The hairpin was as white as ice crystal, adorned with three translucent plum blossoms and a few ice-like leaves, which made her face appear even whiter.

Her long earrings, made of white jade, added to her gentle and elegant demeanor.

She lazily got up, and the little white tiger that had been lying on her wrist rubbed its eyes with its furry paws and stood up crookedly.

"Awoo." Sister.

The baby's voice was soft and trembling. Song Tingwan's eyes curved into a gentle smile, like a new moon, and she reached out to rub the little one's head.

The little white tiger stretched and tilted its head, immediately spotting the spirit flower blooming on the windowsill.

A fluffy ball bounced over, and Song Tingwan changed into her graduation dress.

Ivory color, cuffs tied up, yellow and white embroidered patterns on the collar and placket.

Song Tingwan had to admit that the disciples of the Sword Inquiry Sect had excellent taste in their uniforms. The outer disciples' everyday uniforms were neat and simple in style, with blue robes embroidered with bamboo, while the graduation gowns were three-layered, elaborate, dignified, and grand.

Achoo!

The tiny creature sneezed because of the fragrance of peach blossoms that flew in through the window, lost its balance, and fell off the windowsill.

It was round and plump, and in the process, it knocked over the spirit flowers on the stage.

The woman smiled helplessly. With her delicate nose, porcelain-like face, and slightly curved, ochre-colored lips, she stepped forward, caught the fluffy ball with one hand, and put the spirit flower back with the other.

"naughty."

She nodded her little head, then lowered it slightly with one hand, almost failing to catch it.

Over the course of two years, she finally reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

The road ahead was completely blocked, and she was not allowed to take another step forward under any circumstances.

He also tried to break through through alchemy, refining countless pills and comprehending the Dao several times, but still gained nothing.

As for the pills that were refined, some of them went into the little guy's belly. It was so small that she could barely hold it in one hand.

Song Tingwan helplessly hugged the naughty little thing into her arms, "Our little Ao has already reached the Golden Core stage."

Baili Xijiang and Wanqiji had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and Ayao was also entering the Nascent Soul stage through daily sparring with others. Qin Xi was a step behind them, stuck at the peak of the Golden Core stage and unable to break through, which made him so anxious that he could no longer joke around.

It's a rare occasion to graduate today, and it's made me quite excited.

Ah Yao and her friends are on a completely different level from her; how could she possibly not care?

I felt even more eager for the remaining three ingredients.

One month after today's graduation, the Sword Inquiry Competition for the disciples of the Sword Inquiry Sect will begin.

The ranking of the entire sect.

At the same time, the Sword Tomb opens, allowing all sword cultivators to choose their natal sword, and the top three in the Sword Challenge are allowed to enter the forbidden area.

There are many different opinions among the disciples regarding the forbidden area in the back mountain of the Sword Inquiry Sect. Some say it contains countless opportunities, others say it contains supreme secret manuals, and still others say it offers divine artifacts and pills for the taking.

However, none of the top three disciples from each cohort, whose cultivation levels increased dramatically after entering and leaving, mentioned anything about it.

Song Tingwan knew that there was a nine-story pagoda beneath the forbidden area.

The mechanism is similar to climbing stairs and passing levels, with each floor having its own rewards, and only one treasure can be taken from each floor.

She's a fragile support character, so all she can do is hope that A Yao Yong wins first place so she can get the Heavenly Bamboo.

Like lotus root and bamboo, it can nourish the blood and bones, and also nurture the spirit. Its countless benefits have caused it to disappear for thousands of years, but the Sword Inquiry Sect has one.

However, in the battle of Xingyuan a thousand years ago, a portion of it was used up by several ancestors.

The rest are in the nine-story pagoda, nourished by the endless spiritual energy within.

She didn't know which floor she was on.

But she had faith in Ayao.

As for the reason, just ask any top expert in the sect, and they will definitely be defeated by her Ah Yao.

However, with the Sword Inquiry Competition approaching, disciples who went out for training are gradually returning. The Sword Inquiry Sect is full of hidden talents, and many of them are concealing their brilliance.

Song Tingwan remained calm.

If all efforts are in vain, then there is only one option—

Winning people's hearts.

She may not have much else, but she possesses spirit stones, magical artifacts, elixirs, and treasures—enough to fill an entire treasure trove.

"It's almost time. Should Xiao Ao enter the mustard seed space or stay inside?"

Song Tingwan patted the little tiger's head and gently held the fluffy thing up to her face.

"Don't stay in the small room."

Little Ao wrapped its front paws around her neck and nuzzled her affectionately.

She couldn't stop laughing, said "good girl," and put it into her mustard seed space.

After a year and a half of tidying up, medicinal fields and bamboo forests, as well as streams, were created in the Mustard Seed Space. Some small monsters were specially bought and put in there to play with.

Adjusting the glass plum blossom hairpin in her hair, Song Tingwan opened the door.

She moved with the grace of a willow swaying in the breeze, her ivory dress billowing, and the jade hairpin in her hair adorning her temples, which complemented her small, delicate face, making her exceptionally eye-catching today.

"Junior Sister Song, are you up? Hurry up and go to the graduation exam, or you'll be too late."

"Oh my, everyone has worn graduation gowns, but they look so good on Junior Sister Song."

Faced with the teasing from her senior sisters, Song Tingwan lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, "Good morning, senior sisters."

A senior female student who was in a hurry to do a task took a few steps, then turned around and stood in front of her to look her over carefully. She was a little confused, but she still stood still and waited.

"May I add a touch of vermilion between your eyebrows? It would suit you perfectly."

She seemed to have considered it for a long time, but still hesitated to speak, somewhat offensively.
