Jiang Xiaofan closed his eyes and tried to move the silver copper piece with his mind. However, he was discouraged by the fact that no matter how hard he tried, the palm-sized silver copper piece wouldn't budge at all. It was like a stubborn old bull that wouldn't budge no matter how hard he tried.
"Damn, this can't be. I want the treasure!" Jiang Xiaofan woke up from his meditative state. He was very unwilling to give up. He kept muttering like a resentful wife.
From the time Jiang Xiaofan saw the old monk until now, it had been more than a day since Jiang Xiaofan fell into the Divine Cliff. After a short period of cultivation, he suddenly felt an emptiness in his stomach and his stomach growled.
"Eh? What is this? It smells so good! "
His spiritual sense was much stronger than before. He twitched his nose and looked in the direction of the smell. He saw that behind the stone platform, there were more than ten stalks of strange green grass. They were two inches tall and as thick as a thumb. They were sparkling and translucent.
Looking at the things in his hand, Jiang Xiaofan was speechless. He didn't think that there would be a day when he would eat grass. However, when he thought about the Red Army's long march, he felt better. Back then, they still ate tree bark. It was nothing for him to eat grass. In any case, it was a pure natural green food.
He put a stalk of grass in his mouth and chewed lightly. Immediately, his mouth was filled with a sweet fragrance. He felt as if he was about to ascend to immortality. There was even a faint holy light circulating around his body.
"Damn, this grass … it smells so damn good!"
Jiang Xiaofan cried out in surprise. His eyes were wide open as he chewed fiercely. Not long after, he swallowed a few more stalks. He felt his body become several times lighter. With a light jump, he actually rose more than ten meters high. He was scared out of his wits. Fortunately, he fell into the pond. Otherwise, if he fell to his death, it would be a big joke.
He stared at the remaining six stalks of grass in his hand and directly threw them into his trouser pocket. Although they didn't look good, they still tasted good.
"Oh, it's time to leave …" He seriously scanned his surroundings. In the end, he arrived in front of the stone platform and once again bowed deeply. He earnestly said, "Holy monk, rest in peace. If this disciple has some accomplishments in the future, I will definitely build an ancient temple for you and do good to the world."
After doing all this, he followed the flow of the water and left without looking back. Three days later, Jiang Xiaofan left the Divine Cliff Mountain Stream with great difficulty. At this time, he was walking on a small path in the forest. He felt that this world was too mysterious. There were many things that were beyond his scope of understanding.
Ever since he came to this unknown world from Earth, he had never thought that cultivators really existed in the universe. He had actually met the legendary Dipankara Buddha. Now that he had stepped into such a mysterious realm, he felt like he was dreaming.
He wandered aimlessly, and it was at this moment that he finally saw humans. Not far away, two middle-aged men around 30 years old had sinister smiles on their faces. They were surrounding a 17 or 18 year old girl, and it was clear that they had ill intentions.
The girl was dressed in purple and had a kind of fairy-like temperament. She slightly wrinkled her nose and seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied. She was about to walk around one of the men, but she was stopped by the two men and was surrounded in the middle.
When Jiang Xiaofan saw this scene, he felt that as a good youth of the new era, he should uphold justice and fight against evil forces. He took a step forward and shouted, "Bastard! Let go of the girl! Let … cough … come at me if you have the guts! "
"Where did this stinking brat come from? How dare you ruin our business!"
"Kill him!"
The two big men looked fierce and ferocious. Their bodies were as strong as bulls. They temporarily abandoned the girl in purple and closed in on Jiang Xiaofan. One of them directly stretched out his hand and slapped Jiang Xiaofan's cheek. Obviously, he wanted to humiliate him first.
To tell the truth, Jiang Xiaofan's heart was thumping and he was a little scared. But after all, the arrow was already nocked on the bow. He could not shrink back, not to mention that he was in front of a beautiful girl. How could he shrink back in front of a beautiful girl? Of course, he was determined not to do that, so he braced himself and threw a punch forward.
"Bang …"
However, the result made his eyes widen. The big man let out a miserable howl like a pig being slaughtered. His whole body flew nearly five meters away and crashed into a big tree, directly fainting.
"Wow! So powerful! " Staring at his right fist, Jiang Xiaofan could not help but open his mouth wide. Then, this guy became arrogant and pointed at the remaining big man, saying, "You there, openly molesting the future flower of our motherland in broad daylight. This is an unforgivable crime. As the embodiment of justice, I will destroy you on behalf of the sun!"
The big man had a ruthless look on his face. He made a gesture that he was about to attack, and then … he turned around and ran. Like a rabbit, he disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye.
"This …"
Jiang Xiaofan was stunned. F * ck, if this speed were to participate in the 100m hurdles in the Olympics, he would definitely beat Liu Xiang at his peak!
Seeing that the bad guy had escaped, the girl in purple stepped forward with a sweet smile like a lively little elf. She had a kind of otherworldly temperament and looked very charming. No matter how one looked at her, she did not seem to be frightened at all.
Jiang Xiaofan had never seen such a beautiful girl. Moreover, they were so close to each other. The two of them looked at each other and smelled the faint fragrance. His nostrils immediately became hot and two lines of red flowed down uncontrollably.
"Oh, your nose is bleeding!"
"Uh, it's nothing. The sun was too strong. My name is Jiang Xiaofan. Nice to meet you." He quickly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said embarrassedly.
"Hehe, you're really interesting. My name is Ye Yuanxue. Ye as in green leaves, Yuan as in fate, Xue as in white snow. Remember, don't forget!"
The girl in purple had bright eyes and white teeth. Her smile was very sweet, revealing two charming little canine teeth. She was witty and cute. Her voice was crisp and pleasant to the ear. It was very pleasant to listen to, causing Jiang Xiaofan's heartbeat to instantly reach 189 beats per minute, surpassing the world record in an instant.
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head like a rattle-drum. What a joke. He felt that even if he forgot his own name, he would never forget the name of the girl in front of him.
Ye Yuanxue said that she wanted to go to the Emperor Heaven Gate. Thus, Jiang Xiaofan immediately said that he wanted to go as well, although he did not know what the Emperor Heaven Gate was, nor did he know where it was.
He just felt that he had just met such a super beauty. She was lively, cute, beautiful, and generous. He really couldn't bear to part with her just like that. Furthermore, he was very vague about this world and didn't know anything.
Ye Yuanxue originally wanted to go to the Emperor Heaven Gate alone, but now that there was someone accompanying her, she was naturally very happy.
The two of them traveled together. On the way, Jiang Xiaofan's ignorance almost made Ye Yuanxue laugh out loud. As a result, Jiang Xiaofan had nosebleeds several times.
On the way, they passed by a small town. Ye Yuanxue giggled and glanced at Jiang Xiaofan, then brought him into a small shop. Not long after, Jiang Xiaofan's appearance changed completely. He was wearing a pure white robe, looking somewhat delicate and pretty. Compared to before, it was like the difference between heaven and earth. He was just like an elegant and beautiful young man.
"Thank you, Xiao Xue. This is the first time someone has treated me so well." It was the first time someone had bought clothes for him, and it was even a super beauty. Jiang Xiaofan was a little excited.
"Hehe, is that so? Then how are you going to thank me? "
"I don't have anything on me. Oh, why don't I repay you with my body?"
"Bah, who wants you to repay me with your body!" Ye Yuanxue said lightly. She then helped him choose a few sets of spare clothes and bought some small things. Only then did they leave the small town and continue on their journey.
The places they passed by were all barren mountains and ancient forests. It was very quiet. On the way, Ye Yuanxue told Jiang Xiaofan many things about this world, making him not as hazy as before. At least, he still remembered some of the basic situations.
"Oh, this lady is hungry. Little Fan, do you have anything to eat?" After an unknown period of time, Ye Yuanxue raised her head. Her black gem-like eyes blinked as she looked pitifully at Jiang Xiaofan.
"Eh, I do have something, but …"
Jiang Xiaofan was a little stunned. He really did have something to eat. The few stalks of grass that he had plucked at the Divine Cliff Mountain Stream tasted pretty good. When he changed his clothes in the small town, he couldn't bear to throw them away.
But, could it be that he had to take out a few stalks of grass for Ye Yuanxue to eat?
"But what? Hurry up and take them out. I'm hungry." Ye Yuanxue ground her teeth.
Jiang Xiaofan was a little helpless. Ye Yuanxue seemed to be really hungry. He braced himself and took out six stalks of grass that were as thick as a thumb from his trouser pocket and handed them to Ye Yuanxue.
Seeing that Ye Yuanxue was a little dazed, Jiang Xiaofan was a little embarrassed and said awkwardly, "Well, although they don't look very good, they taste pretty good."
"Heavens, Immortal Spiritual Roots, these are Immortal Spiritual Roots!"
However, to Jiang Xiaofan's surprise, Ye Yuanxue grabbed the so-called stalks of grass in his hand. Her little face was flushed red, and she was extremely excited.
"Immortal Spiritual Roots? What Immortal Spiritual Roots? You mean these stalks of grass? "Jiang Xiaofan was a little stunned.
Ye Yuanxue rolled her eyes at him and said, "What grass? These are Immortal Spiritual Roots. Don't you know Immortal Spiritual Roots? These are King Medicines, which are extremely rare and priceless! "
As Ye Yuanxue said, Immortal Spiritual Roots were a kind of King Medicines from ancient times. They contained the essence of the Great Dao. If a mortal ate one stalk, they could live for another hundred years. For cultivators, it was even more miraculous. It was difficult to find one stalk in the whole world. It was a rare treasure that all cultivators would fight over.
Ye Yuanxue was simply too surprised. She had never thought that Jiang Xiaofan would have such a King Medicines. This kind of thing, if one stalk of it appeared on normal days, it would be considered heaven-defying. However, Jiang Xiaofan actually had six stalks of it.
Jiang Xiaofan was a little speechless. Seeing Ye Yuanxue like this, if she knew that he had eaten seven stalks of this extremely rare Immortal Spiritual Roots not long ago, he reckoned that this little girl would immediately strangle him to death.
However, seeing her so excited, Jiang Xiaofan was also very happy. He had picked up a super good treasure again. He was not stingy. He still had six stalks now, and he directly gave half of them to Ye Yuanxue. This made the little girl happy for a long time. The matter of her being hungry had long been forgotten. She even gave Jiang Xiaofan an intimate hug.
"That's great. Let's go quickly and hurry to the Imperial Heavenly Gate. If we miss this opportunity, we'll have to wait another ten years."
Ye Yuanxue was very happy. She did not give Jiang Xiaofan any time to think. She pulled Jiang Xiaofan, who was still having a nosebleed, and rushed forward as if she was flying.
Two days later, they appeared in a celestial spiritual mountain range. The mountains in front of them were lofty and majestic. This was where the Imperial Heavenly Gate was located.
There were quite a number of mountain ranges here, and the seven main peaks were the most magnificent. Among them, red-crowned cranes fluttered and spiritual mist curled up. It was very auspicious and peaceful. The two of them mixed in with the crowd that had come to take on a master and successfully entered the mountain without any accidents.
"Why are there so many people? Isn't this a little too exaggerated? "
There was a sea of people in front of them, and one could not see the end of it. Jiang Xiaofan was rather surprised. The number of people here was even denser than the military parade in Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
Ye Yuanxue rolled her eyes at him and said, "How is this exaggerated? It's not exaggerated at all. The Imperial Heavenly Gate's reputation is unimaginable. There's not a single cultivator in the world who doesn't want to become a disciple of this sect. "
Just then, seven figures flew out from the depths of the Imperial Heavenly Gate. They were all old men with white hair that reached their shoulders. However, they were all hale and hearty, looking like old immortals.
The seven of them landed on a platform in front and looked down. One of them spoke up. His voice was very soft, but it spread clearly to every corner. Everyone could hear it.
"The test begins. Those who have crossed three levels of the stone steps have passed …"
Jiang Xiaofan was speechless. Why was it this lousy stone step again? It was exactly the same as the stone step in the small mountain village. He almost thought that he had run over to the Purple Sun Sect. Just as he was thinking about this, there were already people walking forward one after another.
However, although there were many people who went, over 90% of them were unable to cross the third level and were regarded as having no affinity with immortality. Many of those who failed were unwilling to accept this. Many of them had extraordinary backgrounds, but none of them dared to create trouble. The Imperial Heavenly Gate's reputation spread far and wide, and these people could only leave quietly.
When it was Jiang Xiaofan and Ye Yuanxue's turn to go up, there was nothing for the two of them to be nervous about. Ye Yuanxue passed easily, stepping over the nine stone steps lightly and walking to the side under the astonished gazes of the seven old men. As for Jiang Xiaofan, because he had slightly cultivated buddhist scriptures and consumed a few stalks of Immortal Spiritual Roots, he possessed a bit of divine force and barely managed to cross the fifth level. He also passed and successfully became an outer disciple of the Imperial Heavenly Gate.
