Ten-colored rays of light permeated the sky for thousands of miles and lasted for most of the day before gradually calming down.
However, although the vision subsided, the excitement in the hearts of the disciples of Jiu Xuan Sect never subsided even a little bit.
At this moment, Ji Yuan was standing on the top of a mountain that was 150 feet high, looking at the sky with a look full of sadness.
When Xuantian Guan returned and Qi Luck merged into Jiuxuan Sect, he did not feel the slightest joy, and even felt as if he was carrying a mountain on his shoulders.
An indescribable heaviness fell on me silently.
"Master...are you unhappy?"
Behind him, Zhao Yuebai asked doubtfully.
Even Zhang Zhiya couldn't help but ask when he saw his apprentice's sad face, "But what difficulties have you encountered?"
Hearing this, Ji Yuan turned around and said with a depressed expression on his face: "It's not just difficult... it's like the sky is about to fall!"
He smiled bitterly, his heart was full of mixed emotions, and he no longer knew how to describe his mood at this moment.
I originally thought that after Xuantian Guan returned to Jiuxuan Sect, he would be able to obtain a mountain of inheritance, where he could practice peacefully with his master, senior brothers, and disciples.
And with the annual share from Jiuxuanmen, they no longer have to worry about the resources needed for cultivation.
You only need to survive for a period of time, and after reaching the third level, you can start recruiting outer disciples and develop step by step.
Who would have thought that the headmaster's words would not only make his plans in vain, but might even make him uneasy in the days to come.
Ji Yuan sighed and told the whole story in detail, but the more he talked about it, the more depressed his face became.
According to what the headmaster said, only when the peak is successfully opened thirty years later will the Jiuxuanmen recognize the identity and due status of the Xuantian lineage.
Before that, they only had the qualification to temporarily use Xuantian Peak, but they could not get the corresponding resources to support them. Even if they wanted to enjoy the benefits of Jiuxuan Sect, they had to pay the corresponding price.
"Kaifeng...is it difficult?"
Zhao Yuebai's face was full of doubts.
It’s more than difficult!
Ji Yuan sighed heavily: "According to the rules of the Jiuxuan Sect, if you want to open the peak, you need at least one golden elixir great monk to be in charge, to have such qualifications."
In other words, some of them must successfully condense the golden elixir within thirty years before they can successfully open the peak and gain recognition from all the Nine Mysterious Sects:
After that, they were able to obtain the corresponding identity and status, as well as the share of supplies belonging to the Xuantian lineage, etc.
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people present could not help but change. They suspected that the Jiuxuan Sect did not want to fulfill its original promise at all, and was deliberately setting up difficult problems for Xuantian's lineage.
If not, how could a thirty-year period be set?
How many monks in the third realm in the world have spent three hundred years of life and still cannot take that step!
Ji Yuan also had an ugly expression. If he could reach the third realm, he still had some confidence. Even without the resource supply of Jiuxuanmen, it would not be impossible to do it with his own abilities.
But if you want to form a golden elixir within thirty years, it is almost impossible!
But it was impossible for him to give up and leave Jiuxuanmen with his master and others.
Now Xuantian Guan's destiny has been integrated with Jiuxuanmen's destiny. He, a second-level monk, cannot separate them at all.
And even if he could do it, the people of Jiu Xuan Sect would not allow him to act like this, which would make the luck that was finally completed become incomplete again.
"Give it a try. If it doesn't work, you'll just suffer a little cold shoulder and ridicule."
He sighed, looking a little helpless.
But just as he said, even if no one can form the golden elixir and complete the opening ceremony of Xuantian Peak within thirty years, there will be no more losses for them.
If you fail to complete it, you will lose your luck and will not be able to get what Jiuxuanmen promised. But if you can really accomplish this impossible thing, various benefits will follow.
What's more, besides biting the bullet and continuing (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 162 Thirty Years Period
, Ji Yuan seems to have no other better choice.
"Get ready, starting from tomorrow, everyone will practice hard!"
Ji Yuan looked into the distance, his eyes falling on the nine towering mountain peaks, and then he said in a slow and deep voice.
Behind him, except for the old Taoist priest Zhang Zhiya, everyone else nodded solemnly.
"But Master, where will we stay tonight?"
Zhao Yuebai suddenly asked.
Hearing this, several people subconsciously turned around and looked at the ruins covered with weeds. For a moment, they didn't know what to say.
Naturally, no house can survive hundreds of years without collapse if no one takes care of it.
That night, Ji Yuan and others lit up two bonfires and fell asleep beside the ruins.
Fortunately, the Jiuxuan Sect is a sect of the Immortal Family, and the four seasons inside the mountain gate are like spring. Even late at night, you will not feel too cold. Otherwise, the rest of the people would be fine, but Zhang Zhiya, who has no cultivation, would have suffered.
There was no talking all night, and before the sun rose the next day, Liao Qiming and the others were woken up by Ji Yuan.
They were originally the nursing home of the Zhao family. Except for Liao Qiming who was lucky enough to enter the early stage of the flesh and blood realm, the other three all had some martial arts skills, which were only acceptable compared to practitioners.
He took out a few bottles of elixirs for the four of them to drink, and then asked them to start cleaning up the ruins on the top of the mountain.
Fortunately, Patriarch Xuantian Guan did not build too many houses here. With the strength of four people, it would only take about ten days to clean them all.
"Master! What should we do?"
Zhao Yuebai woke up after hearing the noise and came to Ji Yuan with Guo Tao.
Without thinking, he threw out a few porcelain bottles, and then said to his senior brother: "I have read the Dragon Elephant Technique. This is a technique that should be kept quiet before it is completed, so I will continue it."
During the days when you come down, senior brother, you will practice at the foot of the mountain during the day and return to the top of the mountain at night."
In the porcelain bottle is the elixir Guo Tao needs for his practice. It has a very strong effect of strengthening his body and cultivating his energy, and is enough to withstand his practice for a day.
Hearing this, Guo Tao nodded silently. Since practicing the Dragon Elephant Skill, he has become more and more silent and rarely speaks unless necessary.
After Guo Tao turned around and went down the mountain, Ji Yuan turned around and looked at his apprentice. Apart from taking out a bunch of pills, he had no more interference with Zhao Yuebai, as long as he practiced well here.
"Master, I'm afraid my disciple won't be able to take care of you in the next period of time."
He bowed deeply to the old Taoist priest, his words full of guilt.
If it hadn't been his choice, Zhang Zhiya wouldn't have traveled so far to follow everyone here.
Now that the peak period of thirty years has come to an end, Ji Yuan will not be able to accompany his master every day for at least a year and a half.
Zhang Zhiya had already prepared for this, allowing Ji Yuan to do what he should do with peace of mind, and there was no need to worry about anything else.
After he finished speaking, he wandered around the mountain peak minding his own business, looking quite leisurely.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan silently put away the guilt in his heart. The most important thing now is to restore the operation of Xuantian Peak and then gain a firm foothold in Jiuxuanmen.
Only in this way can we try to accomplish the almost impossible thing in the next thirty years.
At the same time, he also set a task for himself. Within ten years, he must refine a pill that can greatly increase the life span of mortals, and let the master who has only a short life span take it.
If possible, he also hopes to try to get Zhang Zhiya to enter cultivation, so as to increase his longevity even more.
After making up his mind, Ji Yuan did not start practicing immediately, but turned around and walked up the long stone steps leading directly to the foot of the mountain.
He didn't stop along the way. After saying hello to his senior brother, he speeded up to the foot of the mountain, took a brief look at the direction, and then left Xuantian Peak.
After leaving the ninth floor of Yunxia Peak yesterday, Elder Hong Tian gave him a jade slip and an identity jade tablet.
The former records the map of the Nine Mysterious Gates, which can appear in front of you as long as you pour it with magic power. The latter represents a special identity and you can do whatever you want in the gate (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 162 Thirty Years Period
Walk.
Of course, some forbidden areas are naturally inaccessible.
According to the map in the jade slip, Ji Yuan spent more than an hour before arriving at Yunxia Peak. After looking around for a while, he walked up the mountain road.
Yunxia Peak is the core of Jiuxuan Sect. In addition to the foot of the mountain and the surrounding land, where the outer sect disciples live and practice, the mountainside is where the sect's library, treasure pavilion and other cultivation areas are located.
Ji Yuan walked all the way to the mountainside and followed the map to a pavilion. There was a plaque on the door that read "Qiankun Pavilion".
This place is where Jiuxuan Sect disciples receive tasks from inside and outside the sect. A large number of disciples come in and out every day, making it one of the most lively places.
Now that morning has passed, a large number of disciples have come in and out of Qiankun Pavilion, either alone or in groups of three or two.
After looking around for a while, he stepped into the gate of Qiankun Pavilion. Countless jade tablets were hung on the pillars in front of him.
Some Jiuxuanmen disciples gathered around the thirty-six pillars, and by tapping the identity jade tablets in their hands, they could obtain the contents of the jade tablets hanging on the pillars.
If you decide to accept the mission, you only need to use your identity jade token a little more to make the jade token on the pillar fly to you on its own.
In the next three hours, he browsed through most of the tasks here, and after receiving five tokens, he hurriedly left Qiankun Pavilion.
However, Ji Yuan did not return directly to Xuantian Peak, but turned around and walked towards another important place of Jiuxuanmen, a place called Zhenbao Pavilion.
As the name suggests, this place is a place where many treasures are stored. There are not only various magical instruments and magic weapons, but also countless elixirs, talismans, seals and other items, and even countless spiritual treasures.
The entire Treasure Pavilion is three to four times larger than the Qiankun Pavilion. There are only three floors in total, and the disciples of the inner and outer sects of the Jiuxuan Sect are only qualified to enter the first floor.
In this treasure pavilion, there are only things you can't imagine, and there is nothing they don't have. Of course, if you want to get the things you like, in addition to yellow and white, spiritual stones, spiritual coins and other items, you also need to spend a lot of money.
's achievements.
As for the so-called merits, you need to make contributions to the sect before you can get them. The amount of merits you get depends on the importance of your contribution.
After just wandering around here for half an hour, Ji Yuan left without doing anything, heading towards the final goal of the trip.
Not long after, he appeared outside a courtyard.
In addition to dozens of houses, the courtyard here also has acres of fields, but what is grown in them are not crops, but a large number of precious elixirs.
At the gate of the courtyard, a plaque with the word "Ten Thousand Stars" written on it deeply attracted Ji Yuan's attention.
According to the records in the jade slips, this place is where all the alchemists of Jiuxuan Sect gathered. The so-called "ten thousand stars" describes the number of elixirs here as huge as stars.
You don't even have to step inside, you can already smell the medicinal fragrance and elixir filling the air.
Ji Yuan took a deep breath, then quickly walked in, following the disciples coming in and out until they came to the outside of a large hall.
