"Cough cough cough …"
Suddenly, a burst of coughing sounds came from nearby. A person crawled out from the pile of rubble. It was the Five Poison Gang's headmaster.
"Impossible, impossible. Could it be that the legend is true? But why, why would it appear on an outsider?! "
The Five Poison Gang's headmaster's clothes were in tatters, and his body was covered in blood. His eyes were somewhat lifeless, but he was tightly staring at Xing Jue. His face was filled with disbelief and panic.
"Legend? What are you talking about? "Xing Jue was completely confused by the Five Poison Gang's headmaster's words, and asked in return.
"Impossible, impossible, this is impossible. This must be a misconception!"
However, the current Five Poison Gang's headmaster actually completely ignored Xing Jue's question. He only stared at Xing Jue, and continued to speak to himself. It was as if his mind had been heavily injured, and he had gone insane.
* whoosh *
"Ahh!"
Facing the Five Poison Gang's headmaster in such a state, Xing Jue did not bother to speak with him. He grabbed with one hand, and a boundless suction power sucked him in.
With a wave of his sleeve, the Five Poison Gang's headmaster was thrown to Yao Di's feet. At the same time, he untied the Spirit Formation ropes that bound Yao Di.
"Senior sister Yao Di, I'll leave him to you." Xing Jue said to Yao Di.
"Impossible, impossible …"
At that moment, the Five Poison Gang's headmaster seemed to have truly gone insane. After falling onto the ground, he once again cast his gaze at Xing Jue, and repeated the word 'impossible' over and over again from his mouth.
* puchi *
Just at that moment, a lily-white hand suddenly descended. Like a blade, it pierced through the Five Poison Gang's headmaster's chest from behind. As for the person who did it, it was naturally Yao Di.
"Senior sister Yao Di, I have indeed seen the rank 8 Heavenly Tone. However, it was not because I wanted to secretly learn your family's Secret Skill.
After Yao Di killed the leader of the Five Poison Triad, Xing Jue took out the 8th level Heavenly Sound Manual and handed it to Yao Di. His face was filled with guilt, because no matter what, he had indeed seen the 8th level Heavenly Sound Manual.
However, before Xing Jue could finish speaking, Yao Di pushed Tian Yin 8 Dan back into Xing Jue's arms. "Junior Brother Xing Jue, Tian Yin 8 Dan is useless to me. You can stay!"
"This …" Faced with Yao Di's action, Xing Jue was at a loss.
"Junior Brother Xing Jue, actually, what he said is correct. There is indeed a legend circulating within our Heavenly Melody Society and Five Poison Society."
Seeing that Xing Jue was at a loss, Yao Di suddenly smiled sweetly. After hearing Yao Di's words, Xing Jue was stunned for a moment. Then, he stopped talking and listened attentively.
"When I was young, I heard from my mother that thousands of years ago, the Heavenly Melody Society and Five Poison Society were one. Tian Yin 8 Dan and the Poison Dragon Pearl were the ultimate skills."
"There was also a legend circulating within the society. Only those who fused with the Poison Dragon Pearl could use the rank 8 Dan."
"However, after thousands of years, no one was able to fuse with the Poison Dragon Pearl. Those who consumed the Poison Dragon Pearl all died as a pool of blood."
"Gradually, the Heavenly Melody Society and Five Poison Society split into two factions. Although they still maintained close contact, they did not interfere with each other."
"However, you … seem to have verified that the legend is true," Yao Di said with a smile, looking at Xing Jue with a complicated gaze.
"But, this is your family's treasure, how can I …"
"Junior Brother Xing Jue, even with the Magic Flute of Mystic Melody, I could only barely master the rank 1 Dan of Tian Yin 8 Dan. However, there's still a huge gap between it and what you used earlier."
"Even if you return the Heavenly Melody Eight Stage to me, it would be useless. Why don't you cultivate the Heavenly Melody Eight Stage? At least you won't let this lost technique be lost." Xing Jue wanted to refuse, but Yao Di insisted on giving her the Heavenly Melody Eight Stage.
Under Yao Di's insistence, Xing Jue did not reject it anymore. The roar from before was no small matter.
If he could really master the rank 8 Dan, Xing Jue felt that the rank 8 Dan would be even stronger than the Limitless Palm Technique.
After all, the rank 8 Dan of Tian Yin had a total of 8 Dan. Each Dan was stronger than the previous one. Furthermore, they complemented each other and could be stacked together to form a whole.
The rank 1 Dan of Tian Yin was already so terrifying. If the rank 8 Dan were to be stacked together, perhaps even a High Royal Ranked Combat Skill would not be able to compare.
"Junior Xing Jue, judging from the time, the gathering should be arriving soon. Let's head there."
Yao Di felt that she had already gotten her revenge after killing the leader of the Five Poison Triad. She did not want to make things difficult for the other members of the Five Poison Triad. After all, they were only following orders.
"Senior sister, don't be anxious. The Five Poison Triad still has some treasures. Since we're here, we naturally can't leave empty-handed." Xing Jue suddenly smiled mysteriously.
Just when Yao Di was confused, Xing Jue twisted his wrist and a strange compass appeared in his hand. This was the Grass Compass that Xing Jue had obtained from the Heavenly Book of Immortal Herbs.
At this moment, the rank 4 needle of the Grass Compass was spinning rapidly. This meant that the Five Poison Triad was actually hiding a rank 4 Immortal Herb.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom ~"
"Everyone, we must hold on. We can't let them leave."
"No, we can't hold on anymore. He's too strong. Where is the leader? Why isn't he here yet? "
At this moment, the Five Poison Triad was in a mess. All of this was because the two of them had intruded into the holy land of the Five Poison Triad.
Moreover, they had broken the seal and obtained the treasure that the Five Poison Triad had been cultivating for many years, the rank 4 Immortal Herb.
Although the Five Poison Triad had combined their strength to create a formation that temporarily trapped the two of them, they knew that with their strength, they could not hold on for too long.
However, they knew that they wouldn't be able to hold on for long with their strength. Very soon, the two of them would break through the formation. At that time, they wouldn't be able to stop them.
"Boom ~ ~ ~"
Just when the disciples of the Five Poison Triad were worried, another loud sound came. A majestic white hurricane rushed into the sky and pierced through the clouds. The formation that they had created together was actually broken in an instant.
"Shua, shua." At this moment, the two of them also rose into the sky. Their speed was extremely fast. They did not fight with them for too long. Instead, they rode on the purple mist and fled into the distance.
"Disciples of the Five Poison Triad, your leader is in the Five Poison Chamber. Go find him yourselves!"
Just when the disciples and elders of the Five Poison Triad were hesitating whether or not to give chase, a loud voice came from the direction that the two of them fled to. This caused the people of the Five Poison Triad to give up on the idea of chasing them.
"Junior Brother Xing Jue, was that really a rank 4 Immortal Herb? Aren't Immortal Herbs supposed to be captured alive? Why did you only take its heart? "
Above the clouds of the Song Nation, Xing Jue and Yao Di were flying towards the location of the gathering. As for Yao Di, she was confused by the scene earlier.
She had never seen a rank 4 Immortal Herb before. She had never even seen a rank 3 Immortal Herb. To her, what she saw earlier was more like a monster than a Immortal Herb.
"Senior Sister Yao Di, you don't know this. The essence of the rank 4 Immortal Herb is all in this heart-like seed."
"Its body is useless. This seed is the most precious," Xing Jue explained with a smile.
"Junior Brother Xing Jue is really amazing. Not only is your talent in cultivation far beyond that of an ordinary person, you even have such an understanding of Immortal Herbs."
After listening to Xing Jue's explanation, Yao Di could understand a little. However, at this moment, she was more impressed by the knowledge that Xing Jue had mastered.
However, in response to Yao Di's praise, Xing Jue only smiled faintly. Then, he increased his speed and flew towards the location of the gathering.
According to Xing Jue's estimation, with their speed, they might be able to make it in time for the examination of the gathering.
Although the Eastern Region of the Soul Source World was at the edge of the world, it was still boundless. There were hundreds of countries and thousands of factions.
With so many countries and forces, there were naturally differences in strength. Therefore, the venue of this event was the famous Yan Country in the Eastern Region, Yan City.
The Yan Country was definitely the biggest country in the Eastern Region. Yan City was also the strongest faction in the Yan Country. Therefore, the Reincarnation Peak had chosen to hold the gathering here.
Actually, this gathering had nothing to do with the Sect Leader and the Elders. It was a competition between disciples. The reason why the Reincarnation Peak was holding this gathering was to select a few disciples.
As for the so-called subsidiary factions, it was just empty talk. After all, the organizers of this gathering were not some big shots in the Reincarnation Peak, but only two disciples.
Although they were only two disciples, in the eyes of the factions in the Eastern Region, they were existences that they could not afford to offend. Moreover, the quota of disciples for the Reincarnation Peak was extremely precious.
If their own factions could really have disciples join the Reincarnation Peak, it would be a great honor. Therefore, all the factions were prepared to go all out just for these few disciples.
Ten days had passed since Xing Jue and Yao Di had left the Five Poison Triad. At this moment, the disciples and Elders of the Everlasting Institute had all gathered in Yan City for the examination of the gathering.
"Why isn't Xing Jue here yet?"
At this moment, outside the examination venue, the disciples of the Everlasting Institute had already gone up to the stage to take the qualification test. However, compared to the Elders and the disciples on the Power Ranking who were concerned about the results, Lin Shishi was looking around in a daze.
As early as ten days ago, she had received news from Xing Jue. She knew that Xing Jue and Yao Di were already safe, and they were currently rushing here. Today was the last day of the examination.
If Xing Jue and Yao Di did not arrive soon, they would miss the opportunity to take the examination. In other words, they would not be able to participate in the gathering and fight for the quota of disciples for the Reincarnation Peak.
"Sigh, the Everlasting Institute is indeed a small faction. Out of eight people, only two of them obtained the second-grade qualification. The other six failed the examination."
"A faction like this is destined to fail to obtain the quota of disciples for the Reincarnation Peak. It's better to go back as soon as possible. It's such a disgrace to come here."
Just at this moment, sighs suddenly rang out from the crowd. Hearing the discussions of the crowd, the disciples of the Everlasting Institute, the four elders, and even the Headmaster revealed embarrassed expressions.
Even though they had heard such mockery more than once, such humiliation was something that no one could endure, much less get used to.
However, due to the fact that the people here were all peak factions of the Eastern Region, they did not dare to offend them. Thus, they could only swallow their anger and endure silently.
Moreover, it was indeed as the crowd had said. The Everlasting Institute had indeed lost a lot of face this time.
That was because the eight disciples on the Power Ranking of the Everlasting Institute had already gone up to participate in the examination. However, other than Han Xue and Fang Lianyi, who was ranked first on the Power Ranking, all of them failed to pass the examination. This caused the Everlasting Institute to lose face.
"Headmaster, elders, don't worry. I, Fang Lianyi, will definitely not disappoint you. I will use my actions to shut their mouths."
A handsome man walked to the side of the Headmaster and the elders and solemnly vowed. This person was the number one disciple on the Power Ranking of the Everlasting Institute, Fang Lianyi.
"Lianyi, I'll leave it to you!"
The headmaster patted Fang Lianyi's shoulder in a comforting manner. If it wasn't for Fang Lianyi and Han Xue, their Everlasting Academy would have truly lost all face this time. Thus, headmaster Hong Qiang could only place his final hope on Fang Lianyi. After all, she was the publicly acknowledged number one disciple of the Everlasting Academy.
"Does the Everlasting Institute still have any disciples participating in the examination?" At this moment, a shout came from the high platform.
After hearing the shout, everyone from the Everlasting Institute became nervous. They began to look around for the familiar figure, but the more they couldn't find him, the more panicked they became.
Because there were too many factions participating in the gathering, the date for the examination had already been set. Today was the day for the Everlasting Institute to participate in the examination. It was also the last day of the examination.
"I'm asking you a question! Are there any disciples participating in the examination? If not, go to the next faction. " Seeing that there was no response after shouting for so long, the elder from Yan City revealed a displeased expression.
Faced with the elder's urging, the Everlasting Institute's Headmaster's expression became even more unsightly. He really wanted to buy more time for Xing Jue, but it seemed like the elder from Yan City wasn't going to give him the chance.
"Disciples of the Everlasting Institute, there are still two disciples participating in the examination!"
However, just as the Everlasting Institute was about to give up, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.
