The Shang Qing Sect was located in the extreme south of Yuezhou. Everything within thousands of miles was the Sect's territory. It could be described as a vast land with abundant resources. It was like a small country.
This Sect's capabilities were also considered the top of Yuezhou. Together with the other two Sects, they were known as the three controlling forces. Like a king, they looked down on the entire Yuezhou.
In other words, other than a few hidden terrifying clans, the Shang Qing Sect was the most powerful force in Yuezhou. Only the other two Sects could compete with them!
Therefore, every time the Shang Qing Sect opens its doors to recruit new disciples, many descendants from the various clans would show up. Even some nobles would try to enter the Sect in order to make things easier for themselves in the future.
Even though it was just a technique and all the nobles had it, once they enter the Shang Qing Sect, they would gain an extra layer of protection. Naturally, everyone would scramble to get in.
Of course, other than the cultivators with extraordinary identities, there were also the nomadic cultivators who had no one to rely on. These people had low statuses, no background, and no spiritual stones. All they had was the desire to climb up.
Therefore, why would they let go of such a good opportunity? As long as they enter the Shang Qing Sect, even if they were merely an outer sect disciple, they would have a chance to change their fate!
Therefore, at this moment, there were no less than tens of thousands of people gathered before the Shang Qing Sect.
As far as the eye could see, it was a dense mass of people. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a sea of people.
What could they do? The name Shang Qing Sect represented powerfulness. At the very least, it represented the strongest in Yuezhou. It was extremely attractive. Ignoring the nomadic cultivators, even the descendants of the various clans traveled thousands of miles to get here.
Currently, the Sun had just risen. Everyone was waiting quietly with high expectations on their faces.
Ling Xian was the same.
After he left the City of Dan, he had been rushing to the Shang Qing Sect. After three months of traveling, he finally arrived here.
His body had changed into the clone he had modified.
Compared to his original self, this clone's appearance was very normal and had no temperament to speak of. It was the type of clone that would be hard to pick out in a crowd.
This was what Ling Xian wanted.
Don't forget, he was the winner of the gathering of alchemists. He was also a monster who could brew a perfect Dan. Even though three months had passed, his reputation was still like the sun in the sky, and he was in the limelight!
Therefore, if he didn't change his appearance, wouldn't he be looking for trouble? Therefore, he tried his best to make himself as ordinary as possible. His goal was to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Without a doubt, he was very satisfied with this clone.
"Next, I will wait for the test to begin. I wonder what the Shang Qing Sect's test is about?" Ling Xian frowned. But very quickly, his brows relaxed.
Though this physical body of his was merely of the ninth level, his real cultivation level was at the advanced stage of the completion level. Naturally, he didn't need to worry about what the test would be.
In any case, it was not a problem for him.
Everyone was silently wondering what kind of test the Shang Qing Sect was going to give out this time.
"I heard that the last test was extremely difficult. In the end, only around 100 people were accepted into the Shang Qing Sect. I wonder how many people will pass this time."
"Hehe, others may not know, but I know that the princess of the Xia Dynasty will definitely pass the test. She is a Qi level 10 genius."
"There is also the prince of the Qi Dynasty. He is also of the tenth level. The Shang Qing Sect's test is not a problem for him."
"Other than those two, there are many descendants of the Clans who have reached the undefeatable realm of the meditational level. They will pass the test easily."
"Aye, if only I could reach the tenth level. Then I would be able to compete with those geniuses and successfully get into the Shang Qing Sect."
Everyone at the scene discussed heatedly. On one hand, they sighed at the geniuses of the tenth realm.
Normally speaking, if one's cultivation level reaches the undefeatable realm of the meditational level, then one can be called a Heaven's Favorite.
The Shang Qing Sect was no exception.
Therefore, it was certain that as long as one reaches the tenth level of Qi, passing the Shang Qing Sect's test shouldn't be difficult.
"The tenth level of Qi?"
Listening to the discussions around him, Ling Xian frowned. This clone of his was only of the ninth level of Qi. Based on what everyone was saying, the chance of him passing the test was very low.
This made him sigh and he muttered to himself, "It looks like I have to break through to the tenth level of Qi first."
As he spoke, he quietly retreated, preparing to break through first.
Originally, he wanted to be low-key and not attract too much attention. But based on the situation before him, if he doesn't get to the tenth level of Qi, then he won't even have the chance to get into the Shang Qing Sect.
Therefore, he no longer cared about being low-key. He had to choose to break through and get into the Shang Qing Sect.
Therefore, Ling Xian left the crowd and after walking for a while, he arrived at a mountain range.
Because everyone had gathered before the Shang Qing Sect, this place was very quiet. There wasn't even a shadow of a beast, let alone a human.
"I will first break through to the tenth level of Qi here. After all, to me, this isn't a difficult task."
Ling Xian softly grinned and jumped onto a giant tree.
He was right. The tenth level of Qi, to him, was not difficult. In fact, it was very easy. Don't forget, including the time he was trapped inside the Hidden Territory, he had broken through twice.
On top of that, his clone's meridians were equivalent to a cultivator of the advanced stage of the completion level. His natural talent was similar to his original self. On top of that, he had experienced it twice. Naturally, it was as easy as taking something out of his pocket.
Therefore, after he guided the spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth into his body, it only took him a few seconds to break through the barrier inside his body.
In other words, he only used a few seconds to break through to the undefeatable realm of the meditational level!
The difficulty of the undefeatable realm doesn't need to be emphasized. Many cultivators spend their entire lives trying to break through. Yet before his eyes, he only used a few seconds. How dominating was this?
Luckily, there was no one else here other than him. Or else if others saw this scene, they would probably puke blood from anger!
The undefeatable realm of the meditational level that others have been training so hard to achieve was so easily broken through by Ling Xian. Anyone would be jealous!
Even Ling Xian himself was a little surprised. But very quickly, he understood.
Though this clone's cultivation level was low, his meridians were as strong as his original self's. His original's cultivation level was at the advanced stage of the completion level. This meant he had no bottlenecks and could easily break through to the completion level!
"This feeling of breaking through in an instant sure isn't bad. However, to prevent the Shang Qing Sect from getting suspicious, I had to suppress it. "
Ling Xian softly grinned, "Alright, since I have broken through, then I should hurry back."
Then, he leaped down from the tree and headed towards the Shang Qing Sect's gate.
By the time he got there, the test had already begun.
Four grey-haired elders were sitting on chairs. Before them was a long line. Every time a cultivator left the first table, they would head to the second table.
It was obvious that the Shang Qing Sect's test had four rounds.
"Has it begun? I wonder what the Shang Qing Sect's test will be like?" Ling Xian's eyes flashed with anticipation.
