Chapter 956 Cangwu Immortal Sect
"To be honest, the inner elixir of this Yuan Devouring Beast is not very useful to me. It's okay to give it to you, but I accidentally lost my way when I came to this ancient demon forest a few months ago. Now I can't find the way out. I wonder if you can give me a ride?"
Ye Chunyang laughed and chatted with these people.
Fairy Yuan and the gray-clothed young man and others were overjoyed when they heard this. In order to track down the traces of this Yuan Devouring Beast, they didn't know how much effort they put in, and they almost died at the hands of this beast. Now Ye Chunyang is willing to give them the inner elixir of the Yuan Devouring Beast, which naturally makes them very surprised.
"So you lost your way in the ancient demon forest. We have a detailed map. It's no problem to take you out." Fairy Yuan smiled and looked at Ye Chunyang with a softer look.
"Yes, Daoyou Ye just saved our lives, and we should repay you." The gray-clothed young man also smiled and nodded.
"In that case, I would like to thank you fellow Taoists first. It would be great if you could take me away from here. You can take the inner elixir of the Yuan Devouring Beast!" Ye Chunyang threw the inner elixir of the Yuan Devouring Beast to several people.
Fairy Yuan and the young man in gray were delighted and hurriedly took the inner elixir.
At this time, the young man in gray looked at Ye Chunyang curiously and said with a little surprise: "Fellow Taoist Ye just showed extraordinary magical powers. He killed this beast with one sword. I really admire you."
As soon as these words came out, Fairy Yuan and the other two men also changed their faces slightly, looking at Ye Chunyang with a solemn look.
The situation was critical just now and there was no time to think about it. Now thinking back, this cultivator surnamed Ye was really amazing. They almost died under the claws of the Yuan Devouring Beast when they joined forces to besiege it, but this cultivator killed it with one sword. The gap between them is too big.
"My fellow Daoists, thank you for praising me. I was able to kill this beast because my flying sword had some control over it, and I was able to kill it with one strike just now because I caught it by surprise." Ye Chunyang said nonsense.
"So Daoist's flying sword has another wonder, no wonder."
The four of them breathed a sigh of relief. If the flying sword had some control over the Yuan Devouring Beast, this would make sense. Moreover, it looked like Ye Chunyang had attacked the beast from behind just now. Otherwise, it would be too incredible to kill a demon beast comparable to a mid-stage Jindan cultivator with just one sword.
"Now that the mission has been completed, we should go back and report," Fairy Yuan showed a happy expression, "Daoyou Ye, you should also go out with us."
"Okay!"
Ye Chunyang nodded without hesitation.
"By the way, let me introduce you to Daoist Fellow Fu Han, Daoist Fellow Luo Xu, and Daoist Fellow Zhu Chen. The four of us are inner disciples of Cangwu Immortal Sect. This time we accepted the mission to worship an elder in the sect as our teacher, hoping to become his direct disciple. I wonder which sect Daoist Fellow Ye is from?" Fairy Yuan introduced to Ye Chunyang as they walked.
"I have no sect or school. I have always traveled around to practice alone. This time I accidentally entered the ancient monster forest and found that there were ferocious beasts rampant inside. I had no choice but to stay here." Ye Chunyang smiled slightly, half-truthfully, and this statement was naturally something he had thought of long ago.
"Daoist Fellow is actually a casual cultivator? No wonder he has extraordinary magical powers." The gray-clothed young man was surprised and said, "But please forgive me for being frank. Although casual cultivators are stronger than ordinary sect disciples in terms of magical powers, they have no resources and background. In the long run, their cultivation will not improve but decline. I wonder what plans Daoist Fellow Ye has after he gets out?"
"Plans? Not yet." Ye Chunyang shook his head.
The four looked at each other, and all showed some strangeness on their faces.
After a moment, Fairy Yuan exchanged glances with the gray-clothed young man and said, "Since you have no other place to go for the time being, why don't we return to Cangwu Immortal Sect? With your magical powers, even if you can't be directly accepted by the elders in the Nascent Soul stage, it will be no problem for you to enter the inner sect to practice. Moreover, Elder Mo is recruiting disciples this time and has set up many assessments. After you join the sect, you can try to take one of them. Maybe you can get the favor of Elder Mo and go to Xuanhuang Mountain with him to train."
"Enter Xuanhuang Mountain?" Although Ye Chunyang had heard the conversation of the four people before, he still wanted to get more information.
"That's right. There are countless rare treasures in Xuanhuang Mountain. This time, Elder Mo will select ten disciples from among them to accompany him into Xuanhuang Mountain. Elder Mo is the only elder in our sect who can enter and leave this mountain. It is a rare opportunity to train with him. Although it is common sense that the elders of the sect generally do not accept new monks as disciples, this time Elder Mo has relaxed the conditions. In addition to the ten quotas for direct disciples, he will also recruit a group of alchemists as an exception. If you have a unique talent in alchemy, Elder Mo will still take a fancy to you." The gray-clothed young man nodded and interrupted.
"Alchemist?"
A dark light flashed in Ye Chunyang's eyes, but his face was normal. He said, "I have indeed practiced some alchemy. If that's the case, I would like to give it a try. However, from what you fellow Taoists said, it seems that certain conditions are required to enter Xuanhuang Mountain. I wonder what secrets are there?"
"It seems that fellow Taoist Ye doesn't know that Xuanhuang Mountain is hidden deep in the sea all year round. Even if it is exposed in a tsunami, there is a barrier on the surface. People who do not practice specific skills cannot enter the mountain even if they come to this mountain." Fairy Yuan smiled and said.
"So that's it." Ye Chunyang was a little surprised.
I didn't expect that Xuanhuang Mountain has such a unique secret. It seems that my decision to hide my identity and blend in with these people was not wrong. If I can use the method of Elder Mo to enter this mountain, the matter of finding the secondary soul will be twice the result with half the effort.
Thinking of this, Ye Chunyang said: "Cangwu Immortal Sect is known as the first sect of Taoism. I have long admired it. Unfortunately, the threshold of your sect is very high. I wonder how I can have the honor to join?"
"Hehe, this matter is simple. Generally speaking, Cangwu Immortal Sect does not easily recruit outsiders, but Brother Ye has a few people to recommend, so it is not difficult to join the sect." The gray-clothed young man said with a smile.
Ye Chunyang was slightly pleased to hear this, and bowed to thank him: "Then I will trouble you Taoist friends to recommend one or two."
"Fellow Taoist Ye, you don't have to be polite. If you hadn't helped us just now, we would have died long ago. It is also right to support each other." Fairy Yuan smiled brightly and said: "But speaking of this, Elder Mo's alchemist assessment this time is not only for disciples in the sect, but also for outsiders, so there are quite a few people participating in the assessment this time. Whether you can stand out in the assessment depends on you."
"I know." Ye Chunyang nodded.
He looked solemn on the surface, but he didn't think so in his heart. Not to mention his magical powers, with his years of studying the alchemy on the Holy Pattern Cauldron, there were few people in the world who could match him. Moreover, since Elder Mo was an elder at the Nascent Soul level, the people who came to participate in the assessment were at most Jindan stage cultivators, which was not enough for him to take seriously.
"Since fellow Daoist has no objection, let's return to Cangwu Immortal Sect immediately!"
Fairy Yuan chuckled, and without saying anything more, she flew out of the Ancient Monster Forest.
The gray-clothed young man and the other two men followed.
Ye Chunyang looked at the four people, smiled slightly, and drove a cloud slowly behind him.
...
They had a good chat along the way.
From Fairy Yuan and the gray-clothed young man, Ye Chunyang learned more about Cangwu Immortal Sect, and was also shocked by the background behind this sect.
According to the two, the Cangwu Immortal Sect is divided into two levels of disciples, the inner sect and the outer sect. Those below the Jindan stage are all outer sects, and only Jindan cultivators are qualified to enter the inner sect. But that's all. Unless you are extremely talented or have a special attraction, you will be accepted as a direct disciple by the Yuanying-level elders. Otherwise, even if you enter the inner sect, there will be no one to guide you, and you can only practice on your own.
Therefore, a strange phenomenon has formed in the Cangwu Immortal Sect. Even if the inner sect disciples meet the direct disciples with lower cultivation than themselves, they have to be polite and dare not offend them in the slightest.
Not to mention the outer sect disciples. The identity of direct disciples is like a world of difference to them, and they can only look up to each other.
After hearing this news, Ye Chunyang couldn't help but sigh that Jindan cultivators are elders in both Dongzhou and Luanmoyu, but they are just disciples in Taiyuan Immortal Dynasty, which is worthy of being the birthplace of immortal cultivation.
While chatting with Fairy Yuan and others, time passed quickly. After crossing the mountains from the ancient demon forest and passing through several short-distance teleportation cities, Ye Chunyang and the four of them came to a huge mountain surrounded by fairy air ten days later.
This place is different from other sects' mountains. There are flowing springs and waterfalls, fairy clouds and precious lights everywhere, and countless rare and exotic animals, birds singing and flowers blooming.
Around, people are either flying in the air or flying on swords, busy shuttling in the mountain gate, coming and going.
"This is the Cangwu Immortal Sect!"
Ye Chunyang raised his head and was amazed by the grandeur of the mountain gate here.
After more than 500 years of cultivation, Ye Chunyang asked himself that he had walked through many fairy mountains and treasures, but he had never seen such a magnificent sect. The spiritual energy inside is almost dozens of times that of the outside world, and the methods used by the cultivators are also unique. Compared with this, the Feixian Sect where he is in charge of Dongzhou is really a small witch compared to a big witch.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, come with us. New cultivators must report to the Palace of the Chief. We will take you to see the elders of the sect." The gray-clothed youth said.
"Thank you." Ye Chunyang had no objection.
The gray-clothed youth and Fairy Yuan did not say much. They each cast a magic talisman, and a passage soon appeared in the mountain gate, leading Ye Chunyang into it.
At this time, Ye Chunyang saw that in addition to them, several groups of cultivators also came to the mountain gate of Cangwu Immortal Sect one after another. Judging from their dress, they were obviously not disciples of this sect. After entering the sect, they all ran straight to the Palace of the Chief.
Looking at these people in a hurry, Ye Chunyang's heart was like a mirror. More or less, they exuded a stronger spiritual pressure than ordinary cultivators. It was obvious that they were experienced alchemists. The purpose of coming here was probably to get a place in Xuanhuang Mountain.
