“Junior Brother Xu, is it time to go?”

Li Heng, clad in a brand new robe of law, knocked on the door and shouted loudly.

“Coming!”

Xu Mu opened the door, with a sheathed longsword on his back, and walked out of the courtyard.

“Junior brother, why didn’t you change into some better clothes?”

Seeing Xu Mu in the robe that he had worn for three years, which had already worn out quite a bit, Li Heng’s brows furrowed slightly.

“Old clothes are comfortable!”

Xu Mu laughed heartily and changed the subject, “Where are Sister Luo and Sister Shang?”

Xu Mu looked behind Li Heng, only to see the simple-minded Big Bull and Little Bull, and did not see the two women.

“They both left the peak yesterday and went to Tianhe City. A short while ago, they sent a message telling us to go to Qingyun Palace and meet up with them!” Li Heng explained.

“In that case, let’s get going! We don’t want to keep our senior sisters waiting!”

“But your clothes…”

Li Heng was still hung up on Xu Mu’s clothing situation.

“Third Brother, Fourth Brother, we’ll leave the peak to the two of you!”

Xu Mu cupped his hands towards Big Bull and Little Bull.

“Alright! Haha!”

The two chuckled foolishly, unclear whether they understood or not.

In fact, given their situations, they should have been driven out of the mountain gate long ago. However, due to the lack of people and resources on Lonely Sword Peak, the sect turned a blind eye and allowed the two to live here. “Senior brother, let’s go!”

With that, Xu Mu gave his storage bag a pat, and a small jade sword flew out, quickly expanding to about two meters, with a faint glow surrounding it.

Xu Mu leaped onto the sword body. Bathed in a white glow, he shot off towards the distant sea of clouds.

“Oh! Your clothes! You, you’re always like this!”

Li Heng complained, hurriedly releasing his flying sword and giving chase.

Big Bull and Little Bull waved their hands continuously, long after both figures had disappeared. They let down their arms reluctantly, heading back to the fields to carry on with their work.

Each gate of the Tianhe Sect is made up of floating islands and is located high in the sky. Influenced by a formation, this place is shrouded in white mist at all times.

Unless one has Divine Intent of the Golden Core Stage, it is easy to lose one’s way.

Neither of the two are at the Golden Core stage, naturally not daring to recklessly traverse the cloud mist, maintaining a position about three or four zhang from the ground. Sometimes, when they encounter buildings like pavilions, they have to detour around.

As for Lonely Sword Peak, apart from the Peak Master, whom Xu Mu has never met, only Shang YaoYao is at the Foundation Establishment Stage, neither Li Heng nor Luo Qingchen are.

In fact, several years ago, both Luo Qingchen and Li Heng were already qualified to advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage. Unfortunately, neither had the qualifications to purchase Foundation Establishment Pills, nor did they have Spirit Stones to buy such pills.

Even though the Tianhe Sect is the most influential power within tens of thousands of miles, and they have the ability to refine countless Foundation Establishment Pills, there is still strict control within the sect.

To purchase an Inferior Foundation Building Pill, one needs both Spirit Stones and ten thousand Sect Contribution Points. Middle-grade Foundation Establishment Pills require two ten thousand points, high-grade require fifty thousand, and top-quality require a hundred thousand.

Both lacked Contribution Points and Spirit Stones, hence they could only delay indefinitely.

This sect-wide competition might be their only chance to acquire a Foundation Establishment Pill.

According to the sect rules, those ranked in the top one hundred can obtain a chance to purchase a mid-grade Foundation Establishment Pill. The top fifty can obtain a chance to purchase a high-grade Foundation Establishment Pill. The top twenty can obtain a chance to purchase a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill.

The top ten can receive a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill for free.

With their abilities, making it into the top hundred is not a problem. Making it into the top fifty depends on their luck. As for the top twenty, that would require hitting the jackpot. To make it into the top ten, a miracle would be needed.

Speaking of rewards, this has a bit to do with Xu Mu.

Over the years, Chi Feiyan has been secretly selling Foundation Establishment Pills in the regions of the Tianhe Sect, causing the demand for Foundation Establishment Pills to significantly decrease. With no external demand, naturally, there would be surplus within the Tianhe Sect.

A reward that originally only the top fifty could obtain now can be obtained by even the top hundred, causing the ranking rewards to increase proportionately.

This is a good thing for Qi Cultivation disciples of the Tianhe Sect, but not a good thing for the Tianhe Sect, as they suffered significant losses from not being able to sell the Foundation Establishment Pills.

For this reason, the Tianhe Sect and its affiliated Golden Pill Sect, have never ceased their efforts to clamp down on Xu Mu’s operations.

In these years, Xu Mu had lost countless laborers due to selling Foundation Establishment Pills.

However, as the saying goes, men die pursuing wealthy as birds die for food. As long as there are Spirit Stones, he could quickly muster an even larger team, and so both parties sawed back and forth.

According to Xu Mu’s knowledge, the power under Chi Feiyan had expanded extremely quickly over these years, with the number of Foundation Establishment Stage individuals quickly approaching a three-digit figure, comparable to a Golden Core Sect.

Originally, Chi Feiyan was somewhat dissatisfied with Xu Mu letting Si Tan’er take control of White River City’s marketplace. However, she has long since let go of her grievances and fully devoted herself to drug sales.

However, Xu Mu had no intention of letting Chi Feiyan continue expanding. With insufficient strength, continued expansion could easily lead to backlash.

Moreover, if the power increases too quickly and the loyalty of the members isn’t strong enough, it can easily lead to a rebellion.

However, this is something that the main body takes care of and there’s no need for a clone like him to worry about.

About half a quarter of an hour into their flight, the crowd around them suddenly increased. Everyone was converging towards the same place, a palace and square situated above a cloud, enveloped in mist, resembling a palace in the Immortal World.

One by one, the light from the swords and escape light descended on the square, revealing dazzling men and women clad in robes. Under the backdrop of the mist, they all seemed like immortals.

They had arrived at Qingyun Palace!

The two lowered their swords and fell from the sky side by side, walking towards the towering hall.

To participate in the Sect competition, they have to register at the hall first.

“Junior Brother Xu!”

As soon as they reached the entrance, they heard someone shouting their names. They turned their heads and saw two beautiful women in white robes, one lively and charming, the other calm and steady.

It was Shang YaoYao and Luo Qingchen.

“Why are you two so slow? I’ve been waiting for so long!”

Shang YaoYao complained.

“We…”

Before Li Heng could explain, Shang YaoYao had already pulled Xu Mu away and ran inside.

“Hurry up and register. If we’re late, it will be a hassle!”

II II

There was still more than an hour left before the registration ended, so being late wasn’t really an issue. However, upon hearing that Xu Mu was a disciple from Lonely Sword Peak, the Elder in charge of registration had a somewhat peculiar expression on his face.

After registering, they were about to go outside and wait, but Xu Mu was once again stopped.

“Senior brother Xu, long time no see!”

Qi Yue, straight and tall, clad in a brand new tier three robe, waved and shouted at Xu Mu.

“Long time no see!” Xu Mu smiled and responded.

Over the past ten years, Qi Yue would occasionally come to chat with him, and they had a pretty good relationship.

However, the circumstances of the two were dramatically different. Xu Mu was unknown, while Qi Yue was a well-known genius in the whole Tianhe Sect and enjoyed much admiration.

At this time, Qi Yue had a group of people behind him. Each of them was bright and energetic. They contrasted sharply with Xu Mu, who was modestly dressed. “Senior Brother Xu, are you also here to participate in the competition?” “Yes!”

Xu Mu nodded.

“That’s great! Maybe we’ll have a chance to compete against each other!”

Qi Yue was excited, while the people behind him couldn’t help but show some contempt.

They had already seen the Lonely Sword Peak logo on Xu Mu’s chest. The situation at Lonely Sword Peak was known to everyone in the Tianhe Sect, so it was not surprising that they showed disdain.

Luo Qingchen and Li Heng, who had already gotten used to this, also didn’t react much, only Shang YaoYao snorted coldly.

Qi Yue was not a fool. He did not deliberately introduce Xu Mu to his friends to make him feel uncomfortable. After chatting for a while, he excused himself and left.

After Qi Yue and his group left, Shang YaoYao suddenly laughed.

“Miss, what are you laughing about?” Xu Mu turned back and asked.

“I’m just suddenly curious about what their expressions will be when they see your true strength!”

“What kind of expression can they have? In the end, it will be the expression of being too constipated to shit!”
