A few days later, Liu Ming continued to receive the news that the top disciples in the major competition were selected as inner disciples by the major peaks.
Zhao Anyin, the woman with a scar face, who was ranked third, was accepted by an elder of Lianyi Peak on the night after the major competition.
The white-haired young man, Hou Kun, was accepted by an old man of Yunhen Peak in the morning of the second day after the major competition. He concentrated on practicing the way of talisman.
The young man with a bronze giant sword on his back was even more popular. Three peaks sent people to invite him at the same time. Finally, after some hesitation, this person entered the Tianjian Peak where the bearded man was.
In addition, even the outstanding disciples who failed to enter the top 10 of the major competition but only entered the top 100 also entered the inner door. Zhou Tianrui of the Piaohong Courtyard was one of them.
Liu Ming was very calm about these news, but he still silently swallowed elixir and meditated every day.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since the end of the major competition.
On this day, when Liu Ming was adjusting his breath in the cave house secret room, there was a flash of light outside the cave house. Suddenly, a middle-aged man in his forties with an unusually strong figure appeared.
This man had short hair and a tight suit. As soon as he appeared, a powerful aura surged out.
Liu Ming, who was cultivating in the secret room, suddenly stood up. At the same time, a deep voice came directly from the door.
"Liu Ming, are you in the cave house? Let me in quickly."
When Liu Ming heard this, he didn't dare to hesitate anymore. He hurriedly walked out of the secret room with a hint of surprise and went straight to the cave house door.
After a while, after he launched a symbol, the cave door slowly opened.
"I didn't know senior was visiting, so I didn't greet you. Please forgive me." Liu Ming immediately cupped his fist and said respectfully to the strong man in front of him.
"Liu, you don't have to be so polite. I'm Zhang Mao of the Golden Peak. Although I didn't watch the major competition in person, I have heard a lot about your experience. This time, I mainly want to determine whether your qualification is suitable for practicing the physique refining technique of our peak." The middle-aged man said lightly with a calm face.
Then, Zhang Mao didn't wait for Liu Ming to say anything. He suddenly raised his arm and grabbed his wrist. Suddenly, a heat current gushed out from the man's palm and went into Liu Ming's body.
Liu Ming was shocked, but he immediately felt a hot air rushing around in his meridians. He knew that the other party was testing his technique. He immediately withdrew the spiritual power in his body and waited quietly.
After a while, the hot air almost traveled through Liu Ming's body, then it once again shot out from Liu Ming's wrist and returned to the middle-aged man's hand.
The middle-aged man shook his head, but a hint of disappointment flashed between his brows,
"En … you are indeed Three Spiritual Pulse. Although your physical body is strong now, you don't have any special talent and other special qualifications related to physique refining. It's really a pity … By the way, I have a book about physique refining experience here. It's my experience when I was at the Condensation Period. It's fate that we met today. I will give you this experience. I hope you can figure something out from it."
As soon as he spoke, the middle-aged man raised one hand, and a crystal light flew out and fell into Liu Ming's hand. It was a pale yellow jade talisman.
"Thank you, Master's Junior Zhang." Although Liu Ming was already prepared, he was still very disappointed when he heard the words. He could only reply with a wry smile.
After the middle-aged man nodded slightly, he waved his sleeve and left in a flash of golden light.
Several other elders of various peaks, who were originally interested in Liu Ming, finally confirmed from Zhang Mao that Liu Ming was indeed Three Spiritual Pulse, and there was no other spiritual body behind him. After some consideration, they really dispelled the idea of recruiting him.
More than ten days later, the news that Liu Ming won the first place in the major competition, but he was not accepted as an inner disciple in the end spread in the eighth courtyard again.
For a while, there were various speculations and rumors about Liu Ming.
Liu Ming seemed unusually calm about this.
After all, in Taiqing Gate, the Condensation State disciples still accounted for the majority. Even if the Six Spiritual Pulse or Nine Spiritual Pulse disciples couldn't break through the bottleneck of the Crystallization Period, or they could only stay at the early stage of the Crystallization Period after entering the Crystallization Period, it was also common.
Even those disciples with Earth Spiritual Pulse and Heaven Spiritual Pulse were trapped in the Crystallization Period, and it was not unprecedented.
On this day, when Liu Ming was meditating cross-legged in the cave house's secret room, there was a faint breathing sound in the Sumeru Ring on his hand.
As Liu Ming raised his eyebrows, he immediately released Divine Thought into the Sumeru Ring.
In the corner of the Sumeru Space in the ring, in the gourd imprinted with pale purple spirit patterns, an octopus that was only an inch in size was breathing in and out. The spirit stone placed on the other side was actually slowly releasing a trace of spirit into its mouth.
The egg of the eight-clawed sea demon brought from the Yunchuan Continent finally hatched.
Seeing this, Liu Ming was startled.
During this time, he had been busy for the major competition, so he almost forgot about this beast egg.
With a flick of his wrist, the gourd and the octopus cub flew out of the Sumeru Space at the same time, and they fell into his hands one after another.
Liu Ming immediately took a closer look and found that this 8 tentacles sea beastkin had 4 soybean-sized eyes. There were some densely packed pores on the 8 tentacles. From time to time, some mucus seeped out from them. Some pale pink spirit patterns were also faintly visible on its body.
Liu Ming pointed at it with one hand, and he spat some obscure spells in his mouth, trying to communicate with it using psychic technique.
However, after a while, he was disappointed.
This octopus cub, probably because it stayed in the egg for too long, it had no spirituality at all. It had completely lost its wisdom, and now it only had the lowest instinctive reaction.
Fortunately, this cub still knew how to absorb the natural aura in the spirit stone, otherwise even survival would be a problem.
In the face of this situation, Liu Ming was naturally helpless.
After thinking about it, he had to choose to put this cub into a spiritual beast bag, then he took out a few intermediate grade spirit stones and threw them into it, then he put the spiritual beast bag back into the Sumeru Ring. He didn't care about it for the time being.
The remaining thousands years old spirit turtle's blood essence in the purple gourd had already turned into clear water, and it had completely lost its potency.
Liu Ming could only empty the gourd and put it away.
…
Seven days later, another Crystallization Period man pried open the door of Liu Ming's cave house.
"Younger Brother Liu, I'm the deputy of the law enforcement hall. I'm here today to give you the reward for the first place in the major competition. In addition, all the classics in the inner door Scripture Pavilion, no matter how many contribution points it costs, you can break the enchantment with this jade talisman to read one. Of course, there are no secret classics in the Scripture Pavilion. You must join the major branches before you can exchange contribution points from the Scripture Pavilion of the major peaks. " The deputy said quickly, then he handed a storage talisman and a green jade talisman to Liu Ming.
"Thank you, senior fellow apprentice, for coming personally." Liu Ming took the storage talisman and the jade talisman and said a few polite words.
With his current cultivation, he was still unable to cultivate the third level of the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison, and there was no better magical power in the Tai Gang Sword Tactics to cultivate. At this time, if he could find a suitable inner mystic art for himself, it would be the best.
"Since junior fellow apprentice has no questions, I will leave first." After the deputy cupped his fist at Liu Ming, he flew away on a white cloud.
After Liu Ming watched the other party leave, he immediately returned to the cave house hall. After making a gesture, a white light flashed, and all the items in the storage talisman appeared on the stone table.
It was a bag of spirit stones, a small golden jade pendant and a pitch-black jade bottle.
Liu Ming immediately stretched out 2 fingers and pinched the golden jade pendant. With a thought, he took the identity token from his waist and touched it slightly.
The surface of the golden jade pendant flashed with golden light, then it turned into powder and shattered.
At the same time, the contribution points in the identity token immediately increased by 30,000 points.
After Liu Ming put away the token, he picked up the pitch-black jade bottle and opened the lid. Suddenly, a strong sandalwood smell came out.
As he scanned with Divine Thought, a black elixir with tiny silver patterns on the surface was lying quietly at the bottom of the bottle. This was the "black light pill" that could increase the probability of breaking through the bottleneck of the Crystallization Period.
Even in the Taiqing Gate, this elixir was very rare. If it was exchanged with contribution points, it was impossible to get it without 200,000 contribution points. At the same time, a large amount of spirit stones had to be paid.
Even so, this elixir was in short supply. Often when the elixir master refined 2 or 3, it would be snatched up the next day.
After all, there were too few elixirs that could increase the probability of breaking through the bottleneck of the Crystallization Period.
After thinking about it, Liu Ming capped the bottle again, then he carefully put it into the Sumeru Ring together with the spirit stones.
Then, he left the cave house without hesitation and flew toward the inner door Scriptures Pavilion.
After 15 minutes, in a valley not far from the east side of the law enforcement hall, in front of a huge pavilion surrounded by layers of enchantments and covered with countless secret enchantments, a black cloud flew over. As it faded, Liu Ming in a green robe was revealed.
Liu Ming glanced at the plaque of the pavilion and confirmed that this was the "Ten Thousand Laws Pavilion" known as the inner door Scriptures Pavilion, then he strode in under the gaze of the 2 armored soldiers at the door.
As soon as he entered the pavilion, he found a young man wearing a deputy disciple costume. After inquiring, he had a general understanding of this place.
The entire Ten Thousand Laws Pavilion was divided into 4 floors. The 1st floor was the guidance hall. There were no scriptures. It was just for some disciples to communicate with each other. The 2nd floor was a part of miscellaneous scriptures. The 3rd and 4th floors were for the real inner door techniques. The 3rd floor was for some of the more commonly used mystic arts, and the 4th floor was for some unpopular magical powers with strict requirements.
After 15 minutes, Liu Ming had already appeared on the 2nd floor of the Scriptures Pavilion.
