The Clear Sky Peak was one of the twelve peaks of the Spirit Sword Sect. It had the widest area, occupying more than half of the total area of the Lingjian School. It was the place where the school planted spirit grass and spirit medicine, as well as raised immortal birds and spirit beasts.
The Clear Sky Peak was divided into the Big and the Small Clear Sky Peak. Among them, the Small Clear Sky Peak was one of the four independent immortal's caves on the Immortal Path right behind the Cloud Wave Map. However, its essence was different from the other immortal's caves. The Small Clear Sky Peak was created by the ancestors of the Spirit Sword Sect, using their great magical ability, by taking a piece of space from the Clear Sky Peak and overlapping it with the Misty Peak. It existed both in the Big Clear Sky Peak and in the hinterland of the Misty Peak.
The Small Clear Sky Peak was mainly used to cultivate some low-level spirit grass and spirit beasts. In addition, it could also be used as an excellent experiential learning place for the disciples. Because of the layers of restrictions imposed on this space, the spirit beasts and monsters that lived there were clearly defined areas. Therefore, as long as they didn't wander around, the risk of experiential learning was highly controllable. As for the Immortal Path, it was actually the least important function.
Now, Yue Yun was leading this small team of cultivators to the Small Clear Sky Peak. In the Big Clear Sky Peak, even level four and five monsters were not uncommon. These Qi Refining Stage cultivators going there would simply become a side dish for them. In theory, from the Small Clear Sky Peak to the Azure Dragon Gorge, the strongest monster was only a category two first rank monster. Although Yue Yun and his team might not be able to defeat it, it was not a problem for them to escape with their Junior Brothers and Sisters.
"Then, I will re-emphasize the main points of this experiential learning. Please don't mind me being long-winded. This is everyone's first experiential learning, so it's not wrong to be a bit more cautious. Although there are countless restrictions on the Small Clear Sky Peak to ensure safety, almost every few years, there would be casualties. This experiential learning is absolutely not a game, do you understand? "
In front of the entrance of the Small Clear Sky Peak, the gentle Yue Yun showed a rare serious face. Following his master's instruction, he began to do a historical review. After being scared by him, the new disciples showed a nervous look and said that they would strictly follow their Senior Brother's instruction — except for a certain calm and composed Senior Brother Hong Bai.
Successor Disciple was indeed worthy of being a Successor Disciple. If he didn't know the details beforehand, just by looking at his confident expression, he would have thought that this Senior Brother Hong Bai had already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage!
Yue Yun sighed in his heart. He thought about his master's instruction to ignore this Successor Apprentice Brother. It seemed that there was some truth to it …
Thus, he could only ignore this True Disciple Senior Brother for the time being. He explained the essential points of the experiential learning one by one and finally concluded.
"This experiential learning is expected to last for five days. The initial schedule is for the first three days to pass through the Full Moon Valley to the entrance of the Azure Dragon Gorge, and then return from the Lotus Pond. During this period of time, everyone is free to gather any medicinal herbs you wish. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have sufficient gathering skills so that you don't waste them. You can also participate in the battles along the way, but you must act according to your capabilities and strictly follow my and Junior Sister Huo Ying's instructions. "
"Understood."
"No problem."
"Yes."
"Alright."
"Yo!"
What the f * ck, what's the meaning of this!? True Disciple Senior Brother, don't scare me!
Seeing the brilliant smile on Wang Lu's face, Yue Yun could only helplessly shake his head. "Let's go."
The group of people then officially set foot on the Small Clear Sky Peak. Yue Yun and Wang Lu took the lead, while Huo Ying followed behind.
The entrance of the Small Clear Sky Peak was protected by countless spells and restrictions, isolating all the monsters and beasts in the mountain. The group of people walked steadily without any danger. However, the mountain road was rugged, and Yue Yun, who was leading the way, often chose the dangerous road to advance, making the black, white, blue, and white newcomers quite uncomfortable.
Especially the two female cultivators of the Carefree Peak. Their cultivation was limited, so they couldn't be like Senior Sister Huo Ying, who could walk on the mountain road as if they were walking on flat ground. They also couldn't be like Senior Brother Zhu Qin and Senior Brother Wen Bao, who could use their hands and feet without caring about the mud and moss.
This road was as awkward as it could be.
Yue Yun, who was leading the way, secretly laughed in his heart. Sure enough, they are newcomers. Although their cultivation is good, they lack experience and can't even use thirty percent of their skills. Even if the ninth level of the Qi Cultivating Stage is not enough to freely use the lightening spell, but before they reached the Qi Cultivating Stage, they had already reached the Body Refining Stage and had the strength of a Xiantian Master … But have you ever heard of a Xiantian Master who can't even climb a mountain?
The Body Refining Stage of the Lingjian School could already be considered as having a solid foundation, but reaching the Xiantian Master in just two years was still a shortcut. These newcomers only had a high cultivation base, but they still couldn't control their own strength.
On the other hand, the Successor Disciple Senior Brother had some real skills. Although he was only at the second level of the Body Refining Stage, he was able to walk through the mountain forest as if he was flying. Compared to him, who was at the sixth level of the Qi Cultivating Stage, he was not much inferior! Hehe, worthy of being a Successor Disciple.
They didn't know how long they had been walking. Occasionally, when they looked back, the entrance of the Small Clear Sky Peak had unknowingly been buried in the sea of clouds … This Small Clear Sky Peak was actually so high and so big!?
"Senior Brother Yue Yun, how much longer?"
A blue-white female cultivator couldn't help but ask. At this time, her face was already red and she was panting, sweating profusely, her hands were covered with mud and green moss, and her hair was messy.
The team leader, Yue Yun, turned around and said with a smile, "What's wrong, Junior Sister Wen Yin can't hold on anymore?"
Junior Sister Wen Yin bit her lips. "Not really, it's just that …"
It was just that she really couldn't hold on any longer. Along the way, Yue Yun seemed to deliberately make things difficult for them. He only picked the inhuman path to move forward. Sometimes, he even directly led everyone to climb a hundred meters high vertical cliff with his bare hands … Even a genuine Xiantian Master wouldn't be able to withstand this.
Among the group, Wen Yin was the one who had the most difficulty. In terms of cultivation base, she couldn't compare to Yue Xinyao who had an earthly spiritual root. In terms of foundation, she couldn't compare to the two Misty Peak Senior Brothers. Although she was at the ninth level of the Qi Cultivating Stage, the Light Summoning Technique, Cooling Technique, Fire Drawing Technique … none of them could be used. Although she had learned the Divine Walking Technique, she hadn't officially practiced it, so she couldn't use it! Moreover, even if she could use it, with the magical power of the ninth level of the Qi Cultivating Stage, she wouldn't be able to sustain it for long.
After a few hours, the girl's heart was full of regret. If she had known this earlier, she wouldn't have rushed to sign up for this experiential learning. It was simply making things difficult for people!
Yue Yun smiled. "Well, since someone is tired, let's take a break."
Everyone's heart relaxed. They sat down one after another and then sighed.
However, before they could even catch their breath, they heard Yue Yun suddenly said, "According to our scheduled itinerary, we should pass through the Full Moon Valley in three days, at least to the Azure Dragon Gorge."
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what his intention was. However, Wang Lu heard the problem and asked with a smile, "According to our speed just now, is three days enough?"
Yue Yun nodded. "It's enough — as long as we don't sleep for three days, we can definitely make it."
"Three days without sleep!?"
Wen Yin and her friends were all stunned!
Yue Yun said with a smile, "Moreover, we have to return from the Azure Dragon Gorge through the Lotus Pond. The time is only two days. In theory, this experiential learning should be without rest."
Without rest!?
"Of course, I know that with everyone's current cultivation, not resting for a few days is too much, so …" At this point, the level 6 Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator couldn't help but smile, "So we need everyone to speed up and give ourselves some time to rest. If everyone can reach the Azure Dragon Gorge in one day, I can take you to play for two days. "
Play what! You, this seemingly honest guy, are deceiving me!
Several newcomers couldn't sit still anymore. Regardless of their strength, they hurriedly stood up and continued to move forward. Yue Yun let out a long laugh and once again walked in front of the team. Moreover, this time, his speed was a bit faster than before!
To put it bluntly, a person's potential could only be manifested by squeezing it. Wen Yin originally thought that she was already exhausted and at the end of her tether, but at this time, when she was on the road again, there seemed to be a new strength gushing out from her body, supporting her to follow behind Yue Xinyao. Although it was extremely painful, she never fell behind.
And in the difficult journey, Wen Yin gradually understood the meaning of this experiential learning. To put it simply, it was to squeeze out one's potential and hone one's cultivation. These cultivators who had just entered the Qi Cultivating Stage obviously had the foundation of Body Refining Stage, but they couldn't even walk smoothly on the mountain road. Yue Xinyao, who was at the eighth level of Qi Cultivating Stage, had less endurance than Wang Lu, who was at the second level of Body Refining Stage. To put it bluntly, they lacked practice! This was what it meant to learn without thinking about it!
If it was an ordinary sect, perhaps they wouldn't take this seriously. What was the point of practicing Body Refining Stage and Qi Cultivating Stage skills? If they had the leisure time, it would be better to meditate and increase their cultivation. The eighth and ninth level of Qi Cultivating Stage was indeed a bit tender, but after reaching the sixth level, they would naturally be proficient in all kinds of spells. Trekking over mountains and rivers was nothing to them. Why would they waste their time now?
But the Lingjian School, which emphasized on basic skills, didn't think so. They would rather cultivate a bit slower, but every step must be firm and steady, only then could they take the next step. This was also the traditional style of those ancient sects in the Immortal Cultivation World. According to legend, as long as a cultivator came from an ancient sect, they were almost the symbol of invincibility in the same realm. Especially in the face of those cultivators who only cared about their cultivation and didn't have a solid foundation, they would have a good chance of winning in a cross-stage challenge.
Whether this kind of dedication to the foundation was right or wrong, Wen Yin certainly couldn't say for sure, but … in this non-stop running and climbing, she experienced the rapid growth of her strength. The feeling was really good. Compared to the past few months of practicing Qi Cultivating Stage in the Carefree Peak, improving one's cultivation was more enjoyable.
Especially looking at the back of Senior Brother Yue Yun, Wen Yin's heart was filled with yearning.
Yue Yun was only at the sixth level of Qi Cultivating Stage, which was not much stronger than her, but the strength he showed today was worthy of the two words' Senior Brother '. He only entered the sect two years earlier than her. Two years later … could she reach Yue Yun's level?
After an unknown amount of time, the sun gradually set in the west, and the trekking in the barren mountain became exceptionally difficult.
Yue Yun finally stopped and took the initiative to say, "That's enough, everyone can take a rest."
Everyone suddenly sat down on the ground weakly. From the morning until now, they had been running non-stop for the whole day! Moreover, they hadn't even eaten or drunk anything!
"First of all, congratulations to everyone. After the hard work during the day, according to the progress, we can rest tonight."
Wen Yin couldn't help but applaud.
"But, before you rest, there is one thing I want to tell you, that is … Junior Sister Huo Ying and I didn't prepare dinner for everyone. If you are hungry, please be self-sufficient."
Wen Yin and her companions were all shocked!
No way?! You didn't even prepare dinner! No wonder when you gathered everyone, you specifically told us not to bring food and water. It turns out that you were waiting to cheat us! Senior Brother Yue Yun, you really hid it too deeply! We thought that you were a loyal and honest person!
"Don't worry, Clear Sky Peak is rich in natural resources. Edible wild fruits and vegetables are everywhere. As long as your herbology course is passable, I believe it won't be difficult to fill your stomach. If you're lucky, you may even be able to pick some rare spirit herbs."
Just as Yue Yun finished speaking, they heard a simple and honest voice laughing, "Oh, red berries, I didn't think there would be one here."
Then, a fatty named Wen Bao reached out and picked a red fruit from a nearby book. Without wiping it, he directly put it into his mouth.
Then, the next moment, he painfully vomited and coughed non-stop.
"This, this red berry, why is it so bitter? Why is it so bitter? "
Yue Yun sighed, "Junior Brother Wen Bao, that is not a red berry, but a red thorn fruit. It can't be eaten directly. It needs to be processed at least three times to remove the smell."
Wen Bao asked in a daze, "Red, red thorn fruit?"
At the same time, Wen Yin and Yue Xinyao also looked at each other. They had heard of red berry, but this was the first time they heard of red thorn fruit.
Yue Yun said with a smile, "Clear Sky Peak is rich in natural resources. More than 60% of the spirit herbs in the Nine Regions can be found here. Even in the Small Clear Sky Peak, the variety of herbs is incomparable to the Misty Peak and the Carefree Peak. As a newcomer, being able to recognize one-tenth of the surrounding plants is already considered good enough. Speaking of which, how is everyone's herbology grade? "
Wen Bao wryly smiled. "Primary herbology, C +."
Yue Xinyao lightly said, "Primary herbology, A +."
Wen Yin curled her lips. "Primary herbology, B +."
Then it was Zhu Qin's turn. "Intermediate herbology, C +."
Yue Yun was taken aback. "Intermediate herbology? Not bad, it only took you two years to reach the intermediate level. You are much better than your Senior Brother when I was young. "
However, this honest man secretly laughed in his heart. "However, your Senior Brother is not the same as before. In these two years, I have worked hard, and now I have reached B + in advanced herbology. I am expected to reach the A level within this year. Junior Brothers and Sisters, please work hard, hahahaha!"
However, when he turned his head, he saw a certain taciturn Senior Brother Red and White. Yue Yun thought for a moment. Although the other party was a bit unsociable, it was not good to isolate him. He was about to open his mouth to strike up a conversation, but then he saw Zhu Qin anxiously said, "Senior Brother Yue, don't …"
Unfortunately, the words were already at the tip of his mouth, he couldn't stop himself.
"I don't know about this Successor Brother's grade …"
Wang Lu smiled. "Professional herbology, A +. Thank you for asking. "
Yue Yun spurted out on the spot. What the f * ck!? Expert A +!? Moreover, you have just entered the professional herbology for two years? Are you the reincarnation of Shennong!?
Wang Lu was very modest. "How could I? I am just a bookworm."
