Chapter 1056: One after another
On top of the jade pillar, there are more than ten monks, most of them are in the Dan Formation stage, and there are only two Nascent Soul stage monks.
One of them is an old Confucian scholar with a yellow robe and white eyebrows, a thin face, and an immortal demeanor.
The other person is a beautiful middle-aged woman in flawless white clothes, expressionless, and as cold as ice.
When Han Li and the others entered the hall, the old Confucian scholar and other monks subconsciously cast their glances at them. Only the beautiful woman remained unmoved and continued to polish a long black sword.
Even if Ye Fan took the initiative to release his breath later, the beautiful woman only raised her eyes slightly and made no other movements.
Compared with this cold female Nascent Soul cultivator, the elegant old man is completely different.
He first looked at Ye Fan and the others with a slightly surprised look, and then showed a thoughtful look.
Although the old man could not tell the person's level of cultivation or the origin of his feet, from the aura he felt just now, he could confirm that this person was at least a Nascent Soul level monk.
As for the two people around this person, they should be his juniors.
The ordinary-looking young man was in the middle stage of pill formation. The other young man's aura was unknown and seemed to be obscured by some kind of power. Even he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, couldn't see through it. Either he was carrying a valuable treasure or there was something fishy about him...
Looking at it this way, these three people are definitely not good people.
Before the Xutian Palace is officially opened, it is best to test it out first.
Thinking of this, the old man immediately put on a smile, flew over, and saluted Ye Fan.
"I, Nanhe Island Qingyi, have met this fellow Taoist."
"..."
Ye Fan glanced at him and said calmly: "What's the matter?"
Seeing Ye Fan's indifferent attitude, Master Qingyi's smile froze, and he understood that this mysterious monk had a somewhat difficult character to get along with.
But on the surface, he still caressed his long beard and said with a smile: "Seeing how faceless my fellow Taoist is, I guess you are not from my Luanxinghai, right?"
Ye Fan was noncommittal and said calmly: "So what?"
layman Qingyi smiled slightly and said through the message: "I see that fellow Taoist has an amazing momentum, and there is a hint of ancient meaning in his breath. He must have inherited it from the ancient monks..."
Ye Fan frowned and interrupted impatiently: "What do you want to say, fellow Taoist?"
Layman Qingyi was not annoyed and said with a smile: "Although I have occupied Nanhe Island, I am used to being carefree after all. I have no power and no disciples. I am considered a casual cultivator."
"This time the Xutian Palace opened early, I was a little caught off guard, so I came in a hurry and couldn't go with my friends. If you are alone, you might as well go with me. You and I can work together to take care of each other... "
"Alone?" Ye Fan raised his eyebrows, glanced at Han Li and Xiao Yan beside him, and said calmly, "I said fellow Taoist Qingyi, could it be that there is something wrong with the pupil technique? Can't you see the people around me? Two junior brothers?"
"...junior brother?"
layman Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and then gradually became serious.
In the world of immortal cultivation, seniority is generally judged based on strength. Even if Ye Fan and Han Li are indeed senior brothers, after the former is promoted to Nascent Soul, the latter must respect him as senior brother.
But there is one exception, that is, there is a master with a higher level and stronger strength above them.
When they are both direct descendants of their masters, even if they are a big difference in realm, they still have to address each other as brothers.
If Ye Fan and the three of them are indeed from the same sect, then their origins may be even more shocking than he imagined...
Thinking of this, layman Qingyi's scalp went numb and he said with a dry smile: "So that's it. In this case, I'm the one who's bothering you. I hope this fellow Taoist won't blame you. Don't blame me..."
"It's okay." Ye Fan glanced at layman Qingyi and said calmly, "Fellow Taoist, please help yourself."
Layman Qingyi bowed his hands, then flew up again and landed back on the original jade pillar.
Han Li glanced at the old man and asked through a message: "Brother Ye, what's going on?"
Ye Fan smiled and replied: "It's nothing. This old boy said that he is a casual cultivator and proposed to join forces with me to enter the palace. However, I feel that he may not really want to join forces with me. Maybe he just wants to test my face. It’s just information!”
"It should be."
Han Li nodded and said, "Although I don't know this Nascent Soul cultivator, I have felt the aura on his body near Jiyin Island..."
"If I guessed correctly, he should have also participated in the division of Jiyin Ancestor's inheritance, and he is by no means just a casual cultivator."
Ye Fan suddenly raised his eyebrows after listening to Han Li's voice transmission, and glanced at layman Qingyi calmly.
"Haha!" Ye Fan laughed with unknown meaning and said via voice transmission, "Brother Han, you guessed it right. As soon as this old boy returned, he released his spiritual consciousness to communicate with the aunt who was cleaning the sword."
"There must be a friendship between the two of them. What does this old boy say about being alone... Bah!"
Ye Fan uttered something viciously, and then said with emotion: "Brother Han, thank you so much for your hard work. The people in this world of cultivators are as sinister as those in my world!"
Han Li nodded and said with deep sympathy: "Yes!"
"..."
Xiao Yan silently looked at Ye Fan, who dealt with it easily, and then at Han Li, who instantly guessed something was wrong. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a while, Xiao Yan said weakly: "Two brothers, what should we do now?"
"What else can we do?" Ye Fan sat down cross-legged, glanced at Han Li and Xiao Yan and said, "Wait until the Xutian Palace is officially opened."
Han Li nodded, looked at Xiao Yan and said: "Brother Ye and Brother Yamu are the main force in this trip to Xutian Palace. As for you and me, don't worry too much. You can take this opportunity to practice."
"Anyway, with the treasure that Brother Ye gave you, outsiders will never be able to tell the real level of your realm."
"You don't have to worry about being attacked. I have already tested it. The restrictions in this hall are extremely magical. Except for some small spells such as floating, most spells cannot be cast."
"Even the magic weapon I hid in my body is like a dead object here and cannot be sacrificed at all."
Hearing Han Li's words, Ye Fan nodded and said: "Brother Han is right. I also noticed that the restrictions here are indeed amazing. Even many of the treasures on my body have suppressed their power."
A lot?
Han Li caught the key words and looked at Ye Fan with envy.
All the magic weapons on him were imprisoned, but Ye Fan only said "quite a few", which means that he still had many powerful magic weapons on him, which even the restrictions of the Xutian Palace could not do anything about.
Hearing the words of his two brothers, Xiao Yan finally put his mind at ease, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to practice without distraction.
Ye Fan glanced at him, waved his hand, and a layer of divine power shield immediately enveloped the three people, and emitted a hazy golden light, making it impossible for the cultivators on other jade pillars in the hall to spy.
In this way, time passed day by day.
During this period, many cultivators hurriedly came from all over the Chaos Star Sea.
Most of these cultivators were in the Jindan stage, and only a few were in the foundation building stage.
As for the Yuanying stage, I don’t know if it was the influence of the Xutian Palace opening in advance, but for half a month, no one showed up.
Until one day half a month later, that is, one month after the Xutian Palace was opened in advance, footsteps were heard at the entrance of the hall, and two old figures appeared from the blue light.
One of them was an old Taoist with white hair and a ruddy face, and the other was a dark and thin old man dressed as an old farmer with a bitter face.
As soon as they appeared, the monks in the hall suddenly became agitated, and most of the Jindan monks showed awe. It was obvious that they were two Yuanying monks traveling together.
However, judging from the eyes of the monks around, these two old men should not be the main course.
Ye Fan sat on the jade pillar in the golden light cover and cast his eyes behind the two Yuanying old monsters with interest.
I saw the figure in the blue light flash, and a middle-aged monk in a purple robe and a jade belt around his waist suddenly walked in.
As soon as this person appeared, the monks who were originally slightly agitated instantly quieted down.
Ye Fan spread his consciousness and faintly overheard some adjectives such as "the leader of the righteous way" and "the master of the Wanfa Sect".
At this moment, the beautiful woman who had been silent all the time suddenly looked up, looked at the middle-aged monk and said coldly:
"Wan Tianming, you are here too!"
"Mrs. Wen is here, why can't I come?"
Wan Tianming glanced at Mrs. Wen lightly, and then looked at Qing Yi Jushi not far away, and said sarcastically: "Fellow Daoist Qing, why did you only have so few people from the Demonic Path this time... Oh, by the way, the old demon Ji Yin is dead, and even the skills and treasures he left behind after his death have been divided up by you so-called long-time friends!"
"It's really a close friend, it's touching!"
Wan Tianming sarcastically said to her face without any concealment.
Qing Yi Jushi was a little embarrassed, but he just turned his head away and didn't reply. Obviously, he thought he was no match for the master of the Wanfa Sect.
At the same time, in the corner of the hall, a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth suddenly raised his head and looked at Wan Tianming at the entrance and Qing Yi Jushi on the jade pillar in astonishment, as if he was very shocked by the news.
After a moment, the young man lowered his head silently, and his body trembled constantly.
If someone could look at his face from below, they would find that the young man was grinning and laughing silently, and his seemingly clear eyes were full of joy and madness.
"Ji Yin, Ji Yin, my good disciple... you have come to this day too!"
The young man roared in his heart, then he raised his head, a smile on his lips, and seemed to become clear-minded in an instant, and his whole temperament changed from the original gloom to a lot more cheerful.
Because the young man's aura was only in the Dan stage, and he was in a corner, this little episode did not attract anyone's attention, and even Ye Fan did not notice the changes in the young man.
He was sitting in the golden light cover, looking at Wan Tianming with interest.
"Have you heard of Wan Tianming, the leader of the Wanfa Sect?"
"I've heard of him." Han Li nodded, and said solemnly, "This person is one of the best leaders of the righteous path, at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and his strength is unfathomable."
"As for that woman, I had some guesses, and now I heard Wan Tianming's name, I finally confirmed it-"
"This person is Mrs. Wen from Baibi Mountain. Although her strength is only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul, her husband is the real number one demon in the current Chaos Star Sea-the Six Paths Supreme Saint!"
