On this day, Ye Ling no longer went out to practice alone, and proposed to the four people in Qingzhu Academy:

"More than a month later, it's time for the outer disciples to compete! If you want to continue your training in the Changxi Plain, I want to go back to the Medicine Valley Qingzhu Courtyard to retreat and cultivate, don't bother me if there is nothing important. Farewell!"

Ye Ling informed everyone and left abruptly.

Meng Chang hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, we have all been practicing in the Changxi Plains for more than 20 days, and my cultivation is about to break through to the second level of Qi training. Hehe, I'll go back to retreat too! Brother Ye is waiting for me. ”

He Jingsheng nodded thoughtfully, and finally said quite firmly: "Well, retreat! He swears that if he doesn't cultivate to the third level of Qi cultivation, he will never leave the level!"

Zi Shan and Su Qin glanced at each other, and also made up their minds: "Okay, as Senior Brother He said, our two sisters are in retreat and cultivating, and we won't go out until the third level of Qi cultivation. ”

In the following days, everyone stayed in retreat all day long, and the Medicine Valley Qingzhu Courtyard was much cleaner than before.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of Dabi, the disciple of the outer sect of the Medicine Valley, is getting closer and closer.

One day, the door of a room in the Qingzhu Courtyard opened suddenly, and the first person to get out of the customs was He Jingsheng, who had cultivated to the third level of Qi cultivation!

After two or three days, Su Qin and Zi Shan came out one after another, and they both cultivated to the third level of Qi training!

On the eve of the big competition, Meng Chang hung his head and went out with a bitter face, and his cultivation was fixed on the second layer of qi training, which made him distressed.

Meng Changqiang smiled and said hello to the three senior brothers and sisters who had advanced to the third level of qi cultivation, and looked back at Ye Ling's closed door with a puzzled expression.

"Where's Brother Ye, tomorrow is the Great Competition of Outer Disciples, and he is still in retreat?"

Everyone was stunned, and Zishan was a little worried:

"Do you want me to call Brother Ye out?

Su Qin said coldly: "Don't go! Let Ye Ling stay in retreat." With his ordinary qualifications, even if he retreats for another two months, he won't be able to hit the second level of Qi cultivation! It doesn't matter if he goes to the outer disciple Dabi or not, at most he just goes to see the excitement. ”

Meng Chang's face was bitter, and he sighed: "Ahem, it's okay! There are thousands of disciples from the outer sect of our Medicine Valley Sect, and every year, there is a big competition among the outer disciples, and only those who rank in the top thirty can be promoted to inner disciples! Without the cultivation of the third level of Qi cultivation, there is no chance at all! Hey, not to mention Brother Ye, even if it is me, I can only go to join in the fun, it seems that if I want to enter the inner gate, I have to find another way." ”

At this moment, there was a deep cough outside the Qingzhu Courtyard, and a figure in a moon-white satin robe that they were very familiar with appeared!

"Ye Ling!"

He Jingsheng raised his sword eyebrows, and was shocked by the evil qi on Ye Ling's body! Hurriedly spread out his divine sense and looked at Ye Ling carefully, seeing that he was still cultivating at the first level of qi, he couldn't help frowning.

"Brother Ye, haven't you retreated? Where are you going? Have you killed a lot of demon beasts of the same level! Otherwise, there would not be this amazing evil aura on your body!"

Zi Shan was also shocked by the angry Brother Ye, but when she saw Brother Ye's cultivation, she still sighed, and her big eyes showed great sympathy.

Meng Chang and Su Qin looked at Ye Ling, who seemed familiar and seemed to be a little unfamiliar, and they were a little distracted. It seems that in Ye Ling's body, there is more than this layer of evil energy! It is a little more ruthless and a little more mysterious! It is incomprehensible!

Ye Ling smiled indifferently at them: "I've already been out of the customs, so I'll go to Fengqiao Town and Fang City or Changxi Plains to go around and collect medicine to kill demon beasts!" It's just that this evil aura on my body, no matter how I cover it up or clean it, I can't get rid of it, and it can only dissipate over time!"

Su Qin snorted coldly and said coldly: "Count yourself smart! Knowing that the retreat is hopeless to impact the second layer of Qi training, he went outside to practice a lot." However, there is a difference of two levels between the cultivation of the first and third levels of Qi training, and the difference in strength can be said to be a world away! No matter how experienced you are, you are not an opponent for us at all! Even if you want to defeat Senior Brother Meng of the second layer of Qi training, it is even more difficult!"

Ye Ling sneered in his heart, but his expression was still indifferent, and he nodded and agreed.

At the beginning of Ye Ling's retreat last month, with the help of opening the Star Crystal in the Immortal Mansion Jade Pendant, it didn't take a few hours for his cultivation to soar from the second layer of Qi cultivation to the third layer of Qi training!

At that time, Ye Ling was surprised to find that on the boundary monument of the Immortal Mansion Star Cliff, his cultivation of the third layer of Qi cultivation was revealed; Shouyuan was four years longer than the second layer, reaching eighty-eight; and the line of the Star Crystal was marked: The Star Crystal, empty, nourishing the mind, and it takes forty-five days to recover. Fifteen days more than the thirty days of recovery when practicing Qi at the second layer.

Therefore, if Ye Ling wants to impact the fourth layer of Qi cultivation and enter the realm of the middle stage of Qi training, he must at least wait for the outer disciples to finish the competition, half a month later.

Even so, in these days, Ye Ling has consolidated the cultivation of the third layer of Qi training, constantly practiced in the Changxi Plain, and in Fengqiao Town, he has obtained a lot of top-grade magic weapons and spiritual weapons, and even bought the best green jade ring to resist spell attacks and Yunlan talisman to resist powerful attacks at a great price! It can be said that the equipment on Zhou's body is all superb!

In order to be able to use them instantly when hiding and in battle on weekdays, Ye Ling neither wore these superb equipment on his body nor put them in storage bags, but temporarily stored them in the Immortal Mansion Jade Perry! As long as his mind moves, he can be equipped at any time!

The five people of Qingzhu Academy reunited, and He Jingsheng, Su Qin, and Zi Shan all had the strength to impact the top 30 disciples of the outer sect, so naturally they could not help but congratulate and encourage each other. Ye Ling's expression was calm, not happy or worried. Only Meng Chang frowned, and retired first, saying that he would go back to the Meng family's immortal cultivation family to see if there was a turnaround.

After he left, He Jingsheng smiled and said, "No need to ask, Brother Meng went back to the family to ask for help." Most of them wanted to bribe a certain Zhuji elder to see if they could be directly elected to the inner gate without passing the outer disciple Dabi. ”

Su Qin immediately shook her head and questioned:

According to the practice of the sect, before the outer disciples are compared, the sect master and the elders must first check the spiritual root qualifications of all the outer disciples. Eighty-one spiritual root attributes, only a certain spiritual root attribute more than forty points can be directly promoted to the inner disciple without participating in the outer disciple competition! I remember that Senior Brother Meng's highest earth spirit root attribute is only twenty points, even if a certain elder is partial, he can't hide the sect master's magic eyes!"

Ye Ling smiled indifferently: "Maybe Brother Meng is going to be a certain foundation building elder's medicine boy, in this case, he is very hopeful to become a miscellaneous disciple of the inner gate!"

Everyone nodded yes suddenly, talked for a while, and went back to the house to meditate and rest, striving to keep their physical strength at peak during the big competition tomorrow.

Early the next morning, it was the first day of Dabi, the outer disciple of the Medicine Valley Sect.

More than 1,000 disciples from the outer sect in the medicine valley poured into the altar in front of the main hall of the sect from all directions!

Before the dawn came, thousands of outer disciples gathered on the vast Dao altar, as well as hundreds of inner disciples who came to see the excitement, waiting for the sect master and elders to arrive.

Ye Ling, He Jingsheng, Su Qin, and Zishan also squeezed in. Compared to Ye Ling's micro-cultivation that was suppressed on the first layer of Qi cultivation, He Jingsheng and the three of them can be described as infinitely beautiful.

Among the more than 1,000 outer disciples of the Medicine Valley Sect, there are only more than one hundred and twenty cultivators who have reached the third level of qi cultivation, and the Qingzhu Courtyard has three of them, which is enough to arouse the envy of the surrounding peers!

Especially He Jingsheng, the young son of the He family's Xiuxian family, is lofty, handsome and extraordinary.

There are many female disciples of the outer sect who point fingers at He Jingsheng, whisper private discussions, and are very optimistic about the young son of the He family rushing into the outer disciples than the top thirty, and even some female cultivators have a touch of red on their faces, and they come forward to compliment a few words shyly.

He Jingsheng was naturally fluttering, overwhelmed, and planned to show off with his fellow disciples in Qingzhu Academy, but he saw Suqin and Zishan, who were also in the third layer of Qi practice, and even many inner disciples came to pursue them, and they came forward to talk to each other!

"Little brother, please ask the teacher and sister to give it a name, can you reward it? It's like a celestial, an ice and snow fairy!"

"Dare to ask how old this junior sister is? Tsk, it's really beautiful and cute! Brother Fool is Yang Zhong, a disciple of the inner sect, and a disciple of the Yang family's Xiuxian family, I think the junior sister definitely has the potential to compete for the top 30 in the outer door competition, no, no, even the top ten! In the future, our senior brothers and sisters will be closer and closer. ”

Su Qin and Zi Shan's accosting of these inner disciples sank with a look of displeasure. Su Qin is used to being cold, and even the lively and active Zishan is not interested in them.

He Jingsheng sighed and said secretly: "People have to die more than people, and goods have to be better than goods." I think that the young son of my dignified He family's immortal cultivation family, why is there no inner female cultivator to favor me? Even if it is one or two green eyes, it is good!"

But when he glanced back, Ye Ling, who was like a green leaf in front of him, was shocked and his confidence came back in an instant.

He Jingsheng smiled proudly and said, "Brother Ye, today's outer disciple Dabi, your cultivation is too low, obviously you will be eliminated in the first formation." However, it will also be of great benefit to your future cultivation by observing and observing our fighting experience! Remember to cheer for your brother! After you enter the inner gate, I will introduce you to a few female disciples of the outer gate, hahaha!"

Ye Ling sneered in his heart, but his expression was flushed and natural, not happy or angry, and nodded indifferently. The only thing that caught Ye Ling's attention was that the amazing evil aura emanating from Zhou's body made people palpitate!

There were even many outer disciples who were shocked by his evil spirit, and looking at Ye Ling's cultivation of the first layer of Qi cultivation, their faces showed extremely confused and doubtful looks.

When the day arrived, more than a dozen sword lights flew from the main hall of the Medicine Valley Sect! It was the sect master and the elders who were coming to the Dao altar!

The thousands of outer disciples on the Dao altar were excited and excited, and their eyes showed extreme reverence!

The strong people in the foundation building period, in their opinion, are out of reach!

However, in Ye Ling's star-like eyes, a cold glow flashed imperceptibly!

His gaze was fixed on the familiar figure of a middle-aged elder in Tsing Yi, with thick eyebrows and broad eyes, and a big face, it was the old fox of Zhou Chong in the early stage of foundation building!
