"Senior Fellow Apprentice Ye, is there anyone who can really pass these 36 floors and become an inner disciple?" Liu Ming was startled when he heard the words. Even if he had reached the Condensation Period later stage, the odds of winning against these 4 beastkins at the same time were extremely low.
"To tell the truth, Younger Brother Liu. As far as I know, among the tens of thousands of outer disciples of the 8 branches in the past 10 years, there are only a few people who can break through these 36 floors and become an inner disciple. In addition, many years ago, the current Taiqing Gate's master, also known as the cultivation genius of Taiqing Gate, Master Tian Ge, once reached the 72nd floor in one go as an esoteric disciple of the Jin Dan stage. He finally defeated 6 Terrifying Ghost Kings of the Jin Dan later stage. At that time, it caused a sensation in the entire Taiqing Gate, and it also laid the foundation for him to smoothly become the master of Taiqing Gate. "Speaking of this, Ye Tu was already full of admiration.
Liu Ming was completely speechless when he heard this.
The Void Spirit Tower is so difficult to pass. It seems that the idea of becoming an inner disciple through this way has to be considered.
"Younger Brother Liu, I heard that you are the successor of the Emerald Cloud Peak's esoteric disciple thousands of years ago. With junior fellow apprentice's aptitude and cultivation, not to mention passing this Void Spirit Tower, you still have a good chance to reach the Crystallization Period before the age of 50." Ye Tu said with a smile when he saw Liu Ming's solemn face.
Liu Ming could only smile.
Although this person was a bit naggy, he also got a lot of important information.
Next, Liu Ming continued to ask, and he finally found out what the so-called inner disciple and esoteric disciple were.
According to the Taiqing Sect, the outer disciple was recruited by the entire Taiqing Sect, and the inner disciple belonged to each peak. The esoteric disciple was specially selected from the inner disciple. His status had been separated from the category of ordinary disciples, and he was already on an equal footing with the masters of the major peaks and the elders of the various courtyards and branches. As for the future Sect Leader of the Taiqing Sect and the several core Hall Masters, they would definitely be chosen from the esoteric disciples. Therefore, they would be the elites of the elites within the Sect.
Thinking about how the Barbarian Ghost Sect's Six Yin Ancestor had once been such an existence in the Taiqing Gate, Liu Ming couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
In this way, Ye Tu drove the flying car to take Liu Ming to Piaohong Courtyard while carefully answering some of his questions.
Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at a huge valley surrounded by several mountains of different heights.
On the south side of the valley were two relatively short peaks. The surface was densely covered with green bamboos. There were several pavilions and a courtyard on the mountainside.
On the north side, the three towering peaks were close to each other. Except for some gray-white boulders piled up randomly, there were no other buildings. It looked bare.
In front of a peak in the east, there was a hall of more than a hundred meters high.
This hall was made of white marble. It was even more magnificent than the Foreign Affairs Hall.
"Younger Brother Liu, this is the Piaohong Courtyard." Ye Tuyao pointed to the hall in front and said to Liu Ming with a smile.
Liu Ming took a closer look, but he saw a white jade plaque hanging high outside the hall door. It was engraved with the words "Piaohong Courtyard".
After a while, the flying car landed in front of the hall.
"Younger Brother Liu, I have other things to do, so I will leave first." After Ye Tu delivered Liu Ming, he said goodbye to him.
"Thank you Senior Fellow Apprentice Ye for sending me all the way, take care." Liu Ming bowed slightly and cupped his fist at the man in red.
Ye Tu nodded, then he turned around and jumped on the flying car again. He made a gesture and flew away.
Liu Ming didn't rush into the hall, but he looked at the building in front of him carefully from the outside.
On one side of the hall here, there were a few attics of average height, and behind them was a large wooden house. On the other side was a winding path, which was sandwiched by some unknown trees on both sides. No one knew where it led to.
Although Liu Ming was a little curious, he didn't dare to walk around when he first came here. After hesitating for a moment, he still walked to the hall.
As a result, as soon as he stepped into the hall, he was immediately stopped by a tall young man.
"Who are you? What are you doing in my Piaohong Courtyard?" The man asked coldly with a fierce face.
"I'm a new outer disciple. I'm here to visit the master." Liu Ming looked at the man in front of him, shook the token in his hand, and said calmly.
"Why are you still accepting people at this time! You wait a minute, the master is not here. I will report to the deputy master. " The man took a closer look at the token, then he frowned and said, then he turned around and strode into the hall. He disappeared from sight after a while.
"Thank you." Liu Ming cupped his fist slightly, then he looked at the interior of the hall again.
Compared with the magnificent appearance of the hall, the hall inside the hall was more extraordinary!
The hall was more than a thousand feet in size. The pillars were made of bluestone and were engraved with the image of a flood dragon. The surrounding walls were also made of bluestone, but there were some unknown spirit patterns engraved on the surface. It seemed that there were a lot of restrictions laid down here. Some of the crystal stones inlaid on the walls were emitting light that illuminated the hall.
There were two neat rows of dark green wooden tables and chairs in the hall, and at the end of the hall, there seemed to be a few disciples whispering to each other.
Due to the distance, Liu Ming didn't hear what they were talking about. He just stood at the door and waited quietly.
After about ten minutes, a middle-aged man walked out from the corridor in the depths of the hall. He was dressed in a white robe, but his eyebrows were in an upside-down shape, making him look very serious. Behind him was a delicate and somewhat thin young man.
"You are the new outer disciple who came to report. What's your name?" The man's eyes were a little sharp, and he asked coldly.
"Reporting to senior, I'm Liu Ming." Liu Ming only felt a sense of oppression in the other person's eyes, so he bowed his head slightly and replied respectfully.
"I'm the deputy master, Liang Zhange. Take out your token." The man said faintly, then he flipped his hand and a jade book appeared in his hand.
"Inject some spiritual power into your token." Seeing Liu Ming take out the token, the man said calmly.
When Liu Ming heard this, he injected some spiritual power into the token without saying a word. He saw a green light flowing on the surface of the token, then a green light flashed and shot at the jade book in the man's hand.
With a "swoosh", the surface of the jade book returned to its original state after a flash of green light.
"Yu Xin, take him to pick a cave house." The middle-aged man flicked his sleeve and put away the jade book, then he said to the handsome young man behind him expressionlessly.
After that, the middle-aged man raised his right hand, and a Jade Slips flew out of his sleeve robe and fell into Liu Ming's hand.
"This Jade Slips records all the regulations of my Piaohong Courtyard. You must read it and remember it. The punishment for violating the rules of the courtyard is also described in the Jade Slips." The middle-aged man said a few words indifferently, then he turned and walked to the aisle.
Liu Ming didn't care about the middle-aged man's indifference, but he respectfully watched the other person leave.
"Younger Brother Liu, I will take you to choose a cave house." The handsome young man walked to Liu Ming with a smile.
"Thank you, Senior Fellow Apprentice Yu." Liu Ming replied with a smile. He glanced at the young man in green robe. He didn't know why, but this person's smile made people feel a little awkward.
"Junior fellow apprentice, you don't have to be so polite. Come with me."
As the handsome young man said, he stepped out of the hall and raised one hand.
"Peng!"
A wisp of green smoke drifted out of his sleeve and condensed into a ball that hovered in front of the young man. He then made a hand seal and the mist gradually dispersed. After a loud cry, a giant green eagle that was shimmering with azure light appeared.
The young man jumped lightly onto the back of the giant eagle, and Liu Ming also flew up.
With a screech of the giant eagle, it soared into the air and flew toward the three continuous mountain peaks.
The mountain peaks were surrounded by clouds and mist. From a distance, one could vaguely feel the bursts of rich aura. Liu Ming couldn't help but secretly admire.
Compared with the Jiuying Mountain of the Savage Ghost Sect, it was a world of difference.
"Junior Fellow Apprentice Liu, most of the disciples of Piaohong Courtyard build cave houses in these three mountains that are right on the spiritual vein. The aura here is rich, but the place with the densest aura can be two or three times worse than the place with the thinnest aura." Yu Xin pointed to the spiritual vein below and said slowly.
"I wonder if Senior Fellow Apprentice Yu knows where the aura is richer?" Liu Ming's heart shuddered when he heard the words. He thought that it was normal even if there were some differences in the entire spiritual vein, but it was two or three times more than expected, so he immediately asked.
"The place with rich aura has basically been occupied by fellow apprentices, but there are still a few cave houses that are currently empty. They were just vacated after I was successfully promoted to the inner disciple, but …" Yu Xin suddenly paused, showing a noncommittal expression on his face.
"I'm new here, senior fellow apprentice can speak frankly." Seeing this, Liu Ming had already faintly guessed it in his heart, but he still asked politely.
"I think Younger Brother Liu is also a straightforward person. These cave houses were originally prepared as a reward for the next minor competition. Although it may have to be redistributed later, Younger Brother Liu can temporarily live in it for two years, but … "Yu Xin smiled again.
Since the other party had already spoken, Liu Ming naturally knew it. He took out a bag of spirit stones and handed it to Yu Xin without saying a word. That bag of spirit stones was the one he received from the foreign affairs hall when he joined the sect. There were about forty to fifty thousand.
For him, training time was very tight, and his family was quite rich at present. If he could spend some spirit stones to exchange for a cave house with two or three times more rich aura, even if it was not long, it was a cost-effective deal.
Yu Xin took the spirit stones without hesitation. After scanning with Divine Thought, he said with a smile,
"Younger Brother Liu is really a sensible person. I will take you to the cave house to have a look."
As Yu Xin said, he made a gesture, and the giant eagle landed on a mountain peak in the middle with a green light.
After a while, the two came to a small mountain peak and jumped down.
Yu Xin waved with one hand, and the green giant eagle instantly turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew back into his sleeve.
"Younger Brother Liu, this cave house was originally used by Senior Fellow Apprentice Wu. Half a year ago, Senior Fellow Apprentice Wu successfully broke through to the Crystallization Period and became an inner disciple. After moving away, it has been empty. Junior fellow apprentice, please inject your spiritual power into the token and imprint your name on this cave house. "Yu Xin explained to Liu Ming.
As Liu Ming heard this, he took off the token from his waist and injected a little spiritual power. A red light beam blasted out from it and hit the stone door of the cave house.
The stone door was originally densely engraved with black spirit patterns, but after the beam of light entered, it suddenly glowed with a red light. After a loud "rumble", the stone door slowly opened.
