Instructor Yang's sword-shaped flying artifact was of the Human Tier, which was not as good as Elder Jin's. Its speed and size were also much smaller. After all, Elder Jin was using the public flying artifact of the inner sect, while Instructor Yang was using a private flying artifact.
Although martial artists would have the ability to fly when they reached the Spirit Refinement Realm, they still needed a flying artifact to fly long distances. After all, their elemental energy was limited and couldn't support long distance flying.
Of course, the price of a flying artifact was extremely expensive. Even a normal late stage Spirit Refinement Realm martial artist might not be able to afford it. Instructor Yang and Elder Jin only had it because of their extraordinary status.
As the flying artifact continued to move forward, Lu Xuan and the rest flew past mountain after mountain. The towering Fallen Sword Peak of the Sword Sect gradually became a small black dot until it completely disappeared.
During this period, Lu Xuan also saw a small town. Instructor Yang told them that it was where the families of the elders and deacons of the Wind Sword School lived. Although it looked small, that was because they were flying high. In fact, this town was even bigger than Lin City, and there was a teleportation array that allowed them to go to the secular world.
The location of the core disciples was quite a distance away from the inner sect. They had to fly for a full hour before they arrived. Because the speed of the flying machine was extremely fast, they had actually flown quite a distance in that hour.
When they came to an empty place, Instructor Yang suddenly stopped, "We're here."
Here? Lu Xuan and the rest were extremely surprised. There was nothing here.
However, before they could ask, Instructor Yang suddenly made a hand sign and shot forward, disappearing in an instant.
Illusion array!
Lu Xuan immediately understood what was going on.
As expected, after a short while, an extremely tall and huge mountain suddenly appeared in front of them, and a huge mountain gate appeared in front of them.
Lu Xuan squinted his eyes and took a look. There were a few words carved on the mountain gate.
Yun Xiao Mountain!
"This mountain is the headquarters of the Wind Sword School, and also the place where the core disciples cultivate. It's called Yun Xiao Mountain. Let's go." With that, the flying artifact flew forward again and quickly stopped in front of the mountain gate.
"Flying is forbidden in Yun Xiao Mountain. Remember, Lu Xuan, even if you've reached the Spirit Refinement Realm, you can't fly in Yun Xiao Mountain. You must leave the mountain gate." Instructor Yang reminded.
Lu Xuan and the rest quickly nodded to remember, lest they break the sect rules in the future.
"Greetings, Instructor Yang!"
"Greetings, Instructor Yang!"
In front of the mountain gate, there were two disciples guarding the gate. As soon as they saw Instructor Yang, they immediately greeted him.
"These three are new disciples. They will be your junior brothers from now on. Remember that." Instructor Yang said to the two of them.
So these two were also core disciples of the Wind Sword Sect. They actually used core disciples to guard the door? Lu Xuan was secretly surprised, but he still had to be polite.
"Lu Xuan (Lin Tian, Mo Chen) greets the two senior brothers." Lu Xuan and the rest bowed at the same time.
"Junior brothers, you don't have to be so polite. We're a family from now on." The two disciples smiled amiably, but in their hearts, they were secretly shocked. The three junior brothers who came this time seemed to be very strong.
One was in the middle stage of the eighth rank, one was in the early stage of the eighth rank, and the last one they couldn't see through. Didn't that mean that they had reached the tenth rank, or even the Spirit Refinement Realm?
The one they couldn't see through was naturally Lu Xuan.
While they were surprised, Lu Xuan and the rest were also secretly praising them. They were indeed core disciples. Both of them were in the ninth rank of the Body Refinement Realm. In the inner sect, they were definitely strong.
"Let's go. We'll talk inside." Instructor Yang said. Lu Xuan and the rest quickly followed.
"Instructor Yang, why do core disciples have to guard the mountain gate?" Lu Xuan asked the question in his heart.
Instructor Yang smiled slightly and said: "This is the rule of our core disciples. Every disciple takes turns to guard the mountain gate. One person, one day. Firstly, it is to let you cultivate your character. Secondly, it is to let you be alert and understand the principle of neither servile nor overbearing."
So that's how it is. The three of them were deep in thought. The Sky Sword Continent was so big. There were many strong families and sects in the secular world. Disciples who came out to gain experience might fall at any time. It was better not to be too arrogant.
Previously on the aircraft, they didn't feel it. Now that they were on the Cloud Sky Mountain, Lu Xuan and the rest realized how big this mountain was.
"Every core disciple has their own residence. You can modify it according to your preferences. Apart from that, there is also a Martial Skill Pavilion, Five Element Cave, Mission Tower, and other places. It's not much different from the inner sect. Of course, the martial skills in the Martial Skill Pavilion are stronger, the formations in the Five Element Cave are stronger, and the missions in the Mission Tower are more difficult. The rewards are also greater." Instructor Yang explained while walking.
"Looks like this core disciple is the upgraded version of the inner sect." Lu Xuan said.
Instructor Yang nodded: "You can understand it that way. Apart from these places, there is also a Martial Arts Hall. The Martial Arts Hall is where the instructors give their lectures. Hand over your identity tags. Now, you will need to change to a core disciple's tag. Within the tag, there is a map of the Cloud Sky Mountain, as well as the rules of the sect. At the same time, you can also use the tag to send messages to other disciples."
The three of them took out their nameplates and handed them over to Instructor Yang. Instructor Yang flicked his wrist and three red nameplates appeared in his hand. "The red nameplate represents your identity as a core disciple. Brand your soul imprint on it and it will become your exclusive nameplate. Other disciples can also use your soul imprint to send you a message."
The three of them naturally did as instructed. Since they had just arrived at the Cloud Sky Mountain, they were completely clueless.
"I will send you to the disciples' residences first. There are empty mansions there. You can choose whichever one you want. When the time comes, just hang your name on the door." As Instructor Yang spoke, he turned a few corners. Flying was prohibited in the Cloud Sky Mountain. Otherwise, he could have brought Lu Xuan and the rest over.
Not long after, Lu Xuan and the rest saw many mansions. They looked almost the same, but there were different names on the door. It was obvious that they were already occupied.
"Alright, you can choose first. If there's anything, you can contact me directly. I will report to the Sect Leader first." Instructor Yang was about to leave after he finished speaking. Anyway, he had already told them everything that needed to be said. As for the rest of the matters, they could check it on their own.
"Wait, Instructor Yang, can I ask where Xia Chenxi lives?" Lu Xuan quickly asked.
Instructor Yang instantly laughed: "Didn't I tell you to use the tag just now? The tag contains the soul imprint of each disciple. You can just send a message to her directly."
"That's true." Lu Xuan smiled embarrassedly. Then, he sank his consciousness into the tag and searched for Xia Chenxi's soul imprint. He did not know who passed down the array in the tag, but it was extremely convenient.
Soon, Lu Xuan found Xia Chenxi's soul mark. Without hesitation, he took out a voice transmission talisman and left a message. Then, the talisman turned into a ball of sparks and disappeared.
"Lu Xuan, you also have acquaintances among the core disciples?" Lin Tian asked curiously.
"Yes, she entered the sect with me a year ago. However, I entered the inner sect while she entered the core." Lu Xuan nodded and replied.
Mo Dechen's expression did not change: "But your current strength is probably stronger than all the core disciples."
"How can you say that?" Lu Xuan shook his head: "There must be crouching tigers and hidden dragons among the core disciples. It's better for us to keep a low profile."
Lin Tian laughed: "We naturally have to keep a low profile, but you don't need to. With strength comparable to the Spirit Refinement Realm, what's there to be afraid of?"
…
In the quiet room of Xia Chenxi's mansion, she was quietly cultivating. Suddenly, a spark exploded in front of her and Lu Xuan's voice sounded.
"Chenxi, I've already arrived at Cloud Sky Mountain. I'm at the entrance of the disciple residence."
Suddenly hearing Lu Xuan's voice, Xia Chenxi's face lit up. Lu Xuan actually came. Back then, Lu Xuan said that he would definitely come find her after a year, and now he really did not go back on his words.
"I haven't seen him for a year, I wonder how he is now." Xia Chenxi thought, "But since he can come to Cloud Sky Mountain, he must have become a core disciple. At the very least, he should have reached the eighth level of the Body Refinement Realm, right?"
Thinking of this, the image of a handsome youth appeared in Xia Chenxi's mind. The first time she saw him, he was fighting a life or death battle with a hedonistic son on the martial arena. He relied on a stunning sword strike to win, and even took away a hundred gold from the hedonistic son's chest.
Also, in the Jewel Pavilion, he unconsciously hugged her and drew the Berserk Talisman. That was the first time she was so close to a man.
Finally, in the Wind Sword School's entrance examination, Xia Chenxi was incomparably amazed. With the strength of the fourth level of the Body Refinement Realm, he defeated all the experts and even entered the sixth level of the sword tower …
Scene after scene, constantly flashed in Xia Chenxi's mind. Although she had only been in contact with Lu Xuan for a short period of time, she had developed a hazy feeling for Lu Xuan. In this year, when she had nothing to do, she would think of Lu Xuan and Lu Xuan's promise one year later.
A light flashed in Xia Chenxi's hand, and an enchantment scroll appeared in her hand. It was the Berserk Talisman that Lu Xuan had drawn. Her hand brushed over the scroll, and Xia Chenxi remembered the promise she made to herself when she entered the core disciple realm.
"If one year later, I can meet him at Cloud Sky Mountain, then I'll give myself a chance. If I can't meet him, then I'll forget about it …"
Xia Chenxi's heart of martial arts was also very firm. If Lu Xuan couldn't even become a core disciple, then the distance between them would only grow further and further. The two of them were destined to never be able to be together.
But now, Lu Xuan had come and become a core disciple like her. Even if his current strength was not as good as hers, she believed that with Lu Xuan's talent, after entering the core disciple realm, he would definitely grow further. The feeling in Xia Chenxi's heart began to gradually germinate …
