During this period of time, Yi Tian suddenly felt that time had become more and more tight. Although he had already received Ning Yuxuan's token and could directly enter Chiyang School, he could not escape from the entrance trial.
According to Ning Yuxuan, the Ice Soul Cave was a cave covered in frost all year round. There were a total of three levels, and new disciples would usually train on the first level.
During the trial, everyone would receive a jade token, which would be their identity jade token in the sect.
The finalists had to stay on the first level of the Ice Soul Cave for a day and a night, and those who came out on the second day would become outer sect disciples.
Those who could not make it out on the first day would all be demoted to the ranks of service disciples, unless they were predetermined, such as Yi Tian.
If Yi Tian could not make it to the second day, then in Ning Yuxuan's eyes, Yi Tian's importance would be greatly reduced.
In the cultivation world, strength was respected, and there was not a trace of sympathy or pity.
Based on Yi Tian's current strength of the fourth stage of Qi Refining, if he wanted to stay in the Ice Soul Cave for a day and a night, he would either be frozen stiff or unconscious by the time he came out.
According to the rules of the trial, unless he ran out himself, even if he froze to death, he would still pass. However, after the trial, at most, his name would be recorded in the outer sect disciple's register, and a mark of "dead" would be added behind it.
In the past six months, Yi Tian had been preparing for the upcoming trip to the Ice Soul Cave, and the spirit stones he had on him were no longer sufficient.
Every day, he spent more than half of his time meditating on his bed, and there was already a pile of exhausted spirit stones around him. The last of his belongings had been exchanged for spirit stones to cultivate.
In fact, they were just some broken magic tools, such as the black-robed man's broken copper bell and the things in Tian Fei's storage bag.
He wanted to bring them to Juxing Village to exchange for spirit stones, but Duan Yugang said that they were not good enough and did not want them.
Yi Tian could only go out gloomily and find some unknown small shops or stalls to exchange for some spirit stones.
Fortunately, he was able to reap some rewards after two visits. The two broken magic tools were exchanged for five spirit stones.
Afterwards, he proudly told Duan Yugang about it. Unexpectedly, the next day, Shopkeeper Duan took fifty spirit stones and exchanged them for all the remaining broken magic tools on Yi Tian's body.
Yi Tian laughed heartily. However, when Yi Tian passed by the furnace room, he heard Duan Yugang laughing even more happily. He even said to himself that he had found a treasure and that he wouldn't have to worry about raw materials for three years.
Yi Tian was so angry that he rushed in and discussed with Duan Yugang for a long time. In the end, he didn't get a single extra spirit stone.
However, Yi Tian had the right to use the furnace room as he wished. Furthermore, he could use an extra piece of copper essence the next time he refined something.
He also cut three taels of the copper and iron ingots he had smelted last time and gave them to Yi Tian.
Looking at Duan Yugang's stinginess, cutting a copper and iron ingot as if his mother had died, Yi Tian felt unhappy in his heart. Wasn't it just taking some of your materials?
Afterwards, Shopkeeper Duan angrily said to Yi Tian that there would be no next time. He took the things and left.
When he was left alone in the furnace room, Yi Tian was not polite. He took out the broken sword from last time and melted it after opening the furnace.
After adding a piece of copper essence, he first refined it into a ball shape. Then he used his spiritual sense to control the flame and roughly set the shape of the rough embryo.
Then the fire spirit qi in his hands quickly entered the furnace. After the flame reached a height of ten feet, he put the rough embryo in for refining.
After a while, the embryo, which originally weighed thirty to forty pounds, was quickly burned. Bubbles constantly overflowed.
Yi Tian even felt that the spirit qi couldn't keep up with the rhythm of controlling the flame. He hurriedly took out a bottle of wine from his storage bag.
After drinking two mouthfuls in one breath, he only felt a rush of spirit qi into his dantian.
He secretly thought that this wine was very overbearing. No wonder it was called Heroic Spirit Cloud Sky. However, after improving it, he would call it Heroic Spirit Wine in the future.
After a period of recovery, Yi Tian could feel that his spirit qi was almost back to normal.
He increased the output of spirit qi and his spiritual sense quickly shaped the embryo into the shape of a Zhanmadao.
Finally, he used his hands to form a seal and engraved three inscriptions on the blade. Finally, he engraved his own unique 'Yi' character at the end of the blade.
Since Ning Yuxuan's reminder last time, Yi Tian paid great attention to his name. When he was free, he thought of several plans.
In the end, he decided not to change it and use his own surname. However, this time he added 'Quan' around the 'Yi' character. It really looked like a seal engraved on it.
After being busy for half a day, Yi Tian was also tired. He didn't want to face other people, so he went back to his room to meditate and recover his spirit qi.
Two days later, Yi Tian felt that his dantian was full of spirit qi again, and he felt a little uneasy.
He took the time to ask Pu Siyuan. As a result, this guy looked at Yi Tian as if he was looking at a monster. In the end, he bitterly said that this was the sign of a breakthrough.
This Yi Tian was really lucky. After coming to Pushan Square, his cultivation level rose by one level in a year. He had been here for several years and was stuck at the fifth level of Qi Refining with no progress.
After listening to him, Yi Tian didn't talk to him and directly ran out of Pushan Square to test the blade.
To the east of Pushan Square was a small tributary of the Changqing River. Usually, no one came here, so there were many animals living on both sides of the river. However, there were no living creatures here today.
A group of animals hid in the woods and looked at a madman blowing up mountains and rivers.
On the bank of the river, Yi Tian was waving his Zhanmadao and using all his strength to perform his proudest move, the Five Tigers Breaking Gate Blade.
This mortal martial art coupled with a magic weapon was still very powerful. At least, Yi Tian thought so. The saber aura attached to the Zhanmadao could split the calm water into waves.
According to Pu Siyuan, if one cultivated to the peak of the fourth level of Qi Refining and needed to break through to the fifth level, the best way was to fight.
For example, in the process of killing some spirit beasts, one's blood qi and spirit qi would rapidly expand and break through the level in one fell swoop.
Or those who refined elixirs and weapons would go into seclusion to refine high-level items. This process could also allow one to break through. In any case, there were many ways. It was up to Yi Tian to choose.
After this refining, Yi Tian felt that standing in front of the furnace to refine weapons would not have much effect on his breakthrough.
Therefore, he chose to come out and practice first. Then, he would go to the surrounding mountains to see if there were any spirit beasts for him to kill. At the same time, he could also add a dish for dinner. It was killing two birds with one stone.
After practicing the moves, Yi Tian carried his saber and walked towards Mount Shaohua in large strides. He could have put the saber in his storage bag.
However, Yi Tian felt that he was a member of the White Horse Gang and a member of the Jianghu. Deep down, he still identified with the ranger style. Therefore, he had always dressed in this direction.
Moreover, Yi Tian could not stand those cultivators who always dressed like scholars. They looked noble and virtuous, but in fact, they were full of evil tricks.
In the afternoon, Mount Shaohua was quiet all around. Yi Tian was lying on a rock, basking in the sun and thinking about life.
For example, what to eat at night. Although he had eaten the Fasting Pill, how could it compare to good wine and good meat? Besides, cultivators did not abstain from food.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of fighting in the back of the mountain, and it was not small.
When Yi Tian heard it, he felt that something must have happened. He immediately picked up his Zhanmadao and hurried over.
When he arrived at the fighting area, he saw four people fighting in pairs. A man and woman were standing side by side.
The man had activated his protective barrier and was enduring the attacks of the two people opposite him. The woman was retaliating with a white blade of light.
Yi Tian recognized one of the two people. It was the Lonely Mountain's Twin Demons, Tian Meng, who had come out of the Black Pool Swamp.
However, the person beside him looked even more ferocious. He wore a white robe, but there was a black skull on his sleeve.
His face looked a little malnourished. From time to time, he would send a bone spear towards the man and woman.
It seemed that the man and woman were having a hard time defending. Fortunately, they were still evenly matched. However, the man's head was covered in sweat. It seemed that his spirit energy was starting to run out.
Moreover, the barrier was starting to shake after receiving the double attacks of Tian Meng's black banner and bone spear.
Yi Tian jumped out of the forest and shot a fireball towards Tian Meng. He had to take advantage of such a good opportunity to get rid of the trouble from last time.
The two people were in the middle of attacking. In order to save spirit energy, they didn't even activate their protective barrier. Suddenly, they saw a fireball flying towards them.
The white-robed man hurriedly activated his protective barrier. The fireball was embedded in the barrier for two breaths of time before disappearing.
The two people were so scared that they hurriedly stopped attacking and turned to defense. Tian Meng turned his head and looked. The muscles on his face trembled. He abandoned the brother and sister and rushed towards Yi Tian.
He even shouted, "Kid, I've been looking for you for a long time. Give me back my brother's life."
Yi Tian didn't panic. He had seen Tian Meng's methods two years ago. Now, it seemed that other than the person beside him changing, he didn't seem to have improved.
Robbers would always find a partner. In the past, it was his brother Tian Fei. Now, it was this white-robed man.
Three fireballs flew out in a row from his right hand. Tian Meng saw this and pointed his black flag at Yi Tian.
The billowing black gas instantly met the fireball and surrounded it. After a burst of crackling sounds, the fireball was extinguished.
Tian Meng was stunned. He didn't expect this kid to have improved so much in the two years that he hadn't seen him. He originally thought that it would be easy to capture him, but he didn't expect them to be evenly matched.
Yi Tian was overjoyed. He hadn't fought with anyone since the last time at the Blackpool Swamp. He only knew that his cultivation had reached the peak of the fourth layer of Qi Refining, but he didn't know how effective it would be in a fight. Today, he could use Tian Meng as a test stone.
After thinking about it, he didn't show any mercy. He continuously shot out fireballs. For a moment, Tian Meng couldn't dodge and could only wave the black flag to protect himself with the black fog.
The brother and sister saw that someone had jumped out to fight the brawny man. Now that the white-robed man was the only one attacking, they couldn't help but feel a lot less pressure.
After the two people looked at each other, the girl didn't stop her magic and actually started to attack the white-robed man.
After testing the fireball technique, Yi Tian wrapped the fireball around his Zhanmadao. Taking advantage of Tian Meng's exhausted defense, he quickly rushed to Tian Meng's back and used the move he had just practiced to split open the black fog.
After the black flag in Tian Meng's hand caught fire, the three fireballs in front of him enlarged in his eyes. He didn't have time to shout before he was hit by the fireballs. His body was charred black and he fell to the ground.
The white-robed man saw that the situation wasn't good. He put away his bone spear and turned to run. However, he saw the girl's hand flash with white light.
Two six-inch long white blades flew over. Yi Tian didn't show any weakness and used his most prized move, Left and Right Consecutive Fireballs, Left and Right.
The six small fireballs in his hands converged into a bowl sized fireball and shot towards the white-robed man.
The white blade of light hit a white bone shield and a crack appeared in the middle of the shield. The fireball followed, swallowing the light blade and penetrating the white bone shield.
Yi Tian hurriedly went forward to take a look. He saw a bowl sized hole in the white-robed man's chest. It looked like he was completely dead.
