The elder swordsmen all bowed to him.

Seeing the messenger coming, everyone looked at them in unison, their eyes shining with anticipation.

Yuxu Palace has a high status in the world of cultivation, and Old Man Tianxing is a special envoy, so he cannot be offended.

Seeing that Xiao Chengfeng had also come, Old Man Tianxing was a little surprised, and then smiled at him gently.

"Elder Xiao, what a rare visitor."

"Senior, you're welcome." Xiao Chengfeng saluted him.

Good guy, everyone in Yuxu Palace has to take the initiative to say hello to him. This Xiao Chengfeng has such a great reputation outside. He really deserves to be a sword cultivator at the level of an immortal.

Some juniors couldn't help but look at him a few more times, with admiration shining in their eyes.

Old Man Tianxing turned his attention to the juniors again, "This is the first time for some of the kids to participate in the Soul Hunting Conference. Let me explain the rules here."

Everyone listened silently, with serious expressions on their faces.

"During the conference, your elders and masters are not allowed to enter. You have to do it on your own."

"The hunting time is only three days. For the sake of fairness, no spiritual weapons are allowed to be used. Once discovered, we will be out immediately."

As soon as he finished speaking, some of the disciples present looked guilty and turned pale, as if they had been struck by what he said.

After hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help but reach out and cover her clothes, gritting his teeth secretly.

Before she left, her father specially gave her a spiritual weapon for self-defense. She always carried it with her carefully and did not dare to take it out for fear of being discovered by others.

Hearing what Old Man Tianxing said, he became even more nervous.

Suddenly someone in the crowd raised his hand, "Excuse me, elder, can you snatch other people's prey?"

"Can."

As soon as these words came out, there were a lot of discussions below, some were worried and some were excited.

Xue Ning thought to herself, if this is the case, then this ghost hunting conference will inevitably lead to another bloody storm.

Old Man Tianxing added: "After the conference, we will conduct a spiritual pet trial. If the spiritual pet you capture wins first place in the competition, you will receive a special reward."

"Wow, really?"

"Then I must catch the most powerful spiritual pet!"

Monsters and monks are divided into levels.

Earth Level: Level 1-3. This kind of monster has stronger physical strength and endurance than wild beasts, but it cannot speak.

Heaven level: Level 4-6, larger than earth level, with strong demonic power, and already has a hint of intelligence.

Spiritual level: Level 7-9, can speak, has human IQ, has bred demon pills in his body, and can use demonic attacks.

Immortal level: Commonly known as demon immortals, they can transform into human beings, and some of them can be transformed into tribulations and ascend to the upper world.

Holy level: The famous Four Holy Beasts, Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, and Xuanwu are at this level, and they are mostly the overlords of one party.

God level: The ancient god level is rarely seen. Their whereabouts are mysterious. Some are already gods in the upper world. Sword immortals will kowtow and call their ancestors when they see them. For example, Bai Ze, Kunpeng and the like.

Seeing that the monks were eager to give it a try, Old Man Tianxing added: "The last point is that Death Valley is a forbidden area in the Holy Mountain. There are countless powerful fairy-level monsters in it. You are not allowed to enter, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."

The monks couldn't help but open their mouths, with expressions of excitement and fear.

Xue Ning was also shocked.

Immortal level? Or countless ones?

Wouldn't it be dangerous for monks of their level to go in and die?

You would go there only if you have something wrong with your brain!

But what if...Bai Ze is also there? Then should she go?

Well, Xue Ning thought about it carefully. Although she really wanted to help Xiao Chengfeng resurrect Xuancao, if the cost was her life, she'd better save her life first!

Your life is almost gone, why do you care about others?

After Old Man Tianxing finished speaking, the white cloak on his body swelled without any wind, and countless golden arrows shot out from his robe and landed in the hands of all the disciples.

"This is this?" They took it in their hands and saw that it was a golden feather arrow, shining and shining.

"This is the signal arrow of our Yuxu Palace. If you are in danger of life, inject spiritual energy into it and shoot it into the sky, and the messengers will come to save you."

The dozen Yuxu Palace envoys behind him are all masters at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. They are standing in a row neatly, their heads hidden under the wide brim of their hats, and their faces cannot be seen clearly.

Although they never said a word, the arrogance exuding from their bodies was different from ordinary monks, and they were particularly solemn and majestic.

After Old Man Tianxing finished speaking, two envoys walked out, one on each side, and stood at the entrance of the Beipo Hunting Area. They cast spells and opened the barrier at the entrance.

"Everyone please hurry up and enter the hunting area."

After saying that, the monks rushed forward and rushed in excitedly.

The Shushan disciples were very excited and entered the hunting area one after another.

Just as Xue Ning was about to leave, she heard Xiao Chengfeng suddenly shouting from behind.

"Xue Ning!"

Xue Ning was stunned and looked back at Xiao Chengfeng.

"Uncle Master?"

"Come here."

Xue Ning was very surprised and walked up to Xiao Chengfeng, "What are your instructions, uncle?"

"Among the ten disciples, you are the one with the highest cultivation level. If their lives are in danger, remember to help them."

Xue Ning was stunned.

Xiao Chengfeng was usually cold and cold and didn't seem to be close to his disciples at all. Unexpectedly, he would still care about their safety at the critical moment.

"Also, be careful and never act impulsively, okay?"

The coldness in the man's eyes dissipated a lot, and there was a hint of softness.

Xue Ning looked at him, her eyes trembling slightly, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

"Thank you for your concern, uncle, I will do it!" Xue Ning raised her lips at him.

"Go." Xiao Chengfeng patted her shoulder.

The moment the man put his big hand on her shoulder, Xue Ning felt her flesh jump and her heart skip a beat.

After bidding farewell to Xiao Chengfeng, Xue Ning followed the large troops in front and disappeared into the crowd.

Entering the hunting area, everyone couldn't wait to run deeper into the pine forest, for fear that the good spiritual beasts would be robbed by others.

Li Yan glanced at Xue Ning with a disgusted expression, as if he didn't want to go with Xue Ning. He led several Shushan disciples and ran into the woods, throwing Xue Ning far away.

"As for that?" Xue Ning looked at her defensive look, fearing that she would compete with her for her spiritual pet, and sneered in her heart.

Xue Ning walked around in the forest with a leisurely pace, as if she was on a sightseeing trip, but Song Liang followed her and looked around, fearing that some powerful monster would accidentally appear.

Seeing that Xue Ning was not anxious at all, Song Liang couldn't help but asked strangely: "Why are you so calm? Aren't you afraid that your good spiritual pet will be robbed?"

"What about you, why aren't you in a hurry?" Xue Ning asked.

Song Liang scratched his head and smiled, "I came here just to join in the fun. I didn't want to catch any powerful spiritual pets. When the time comes, I can just catch a rabbit spirit and complete the task."

"Catch one at random? Aren't you afraid that the second uncle will be angry?" Xue Ning said funny.

"He doesn't know how. He's done it himself, so how can he care about me?" Song Liang waved his hand.

Xue Ning joked: "The disciples of the second uncle are really different. There are really different kinds of disciples like the masters!"

"Stop talking about me, Xue Ning, what kind of spiritual pet do you want to catch? One that flies in the sky or one that crawls on the ground?" Song Liang asked curiously.

"Let it go, as long as you have fighting ability." In fact, Xue Ning had not thought about it. She mainly wanted to find Bai Ze now.

However, as an ancient auspicious beast, Bai Ze is not so easy to find. Xue Ning can only ask the nearby monsters if they have seen it.

"Hey! There really is a rabbit spirit!" Song Liang saw a shadow flashing past in the grass, and immediately flew after it, but disappeared after a while.

Seeing that he really wanted to catch the rabbit spirit, Xue Ning could only shake her head in amusement and silently bless him.

As she was walking, her foot tripped on something, causing her to almost fall.

She lowered her head and saw that it was a steel rock turtle as big as a basin. The black turtle shell had spike-like scales.

It is said that the scales of the Steel Rock Turtle are the hardest among all turtles, comparable to the basalt. The spikes on their backs are extremely sharp and are often used to make magical weapons.

This turtle seemed to be an earth-level first-level monster. The turtle itself had no offensive power, and it was only level one. It was kicked by Xue Ning. It became angry and bit Xue Ning's leg.

"Hey, don't tell me, it hurts when you little guy bites someone." Xue Ning knelt down and flicked it with her fingers until it was so painful.

The little turtle was so angry that he yanked her clothes hard with his toothless mouth.

With a "crash" sound, a piece of cloth was torn off from Xue Ning's body.

"It's small, but it has quite a temper!" Xue Ning grabbed its head with her hands and twisted it hard, looking at it with a fierce look on its face.

"Little bastard, if you bite me again, I will take off your shell and make soup for you!"
