Chapter 304: Even I, a Data Point, Blush
The clone currently only has the cultivation of the early Qi Condensation stage.
Song Jiulai, wearing a common mortal yellow cultivation skirt, entered the Azure Shadow Sect.
To appear cute, she also specifically styled her hair into a young girl’s bun.
She also specifically asked the System, “How do I look?”
System: “I am an emotionless data. What kind of words do you want to hear?”
Song Jiulai: “Words of praise.”
System: “You are the most beautiful woman in the world.”
Song Jiulai was extremely satisfied: “You are the most filial child in the world.”
System: “…”
You evil creature!
The disciples managing the Azure Shadow Sect were at the main entrance. Upon hearing that Song Jiulai was here to participate in the Myriad Immortal Sect Selection Competition, they merely glanced at her with slight surprise.
They asked nothing, had her pay fifty low-grade Spirit Stones as a processing fee, and then gave her a small wooden token.
“This wooden token allows you to stay in the Azure Shadow Sect until you are eliminated from the Myriad Immortal Sect Selection Competition.”
Song Jiulai took the wooden token and thanked the Cultivator at the Sect City entrance.
The Azure Shadow Sect was magnificent and grand. At the four corners of the Sect City, there was a massive Medicine Furnace-shaped building suppressing the area.
Judging by the Spiritual Energy and light it emitted, they should be Magic Treasures of Heaven-grade or higher.
The entire city looked ethereal and emitted an extremely rich Dan Stage fragrance.
Song Jiulai said to the System, “Look at the Azure Shadow Sect, their charging fees are so humane. Why is the Guanhai Sect so inhumane?”
System: “You can complain to the Myriad Immortal Sect about the Guanhai Sect’s exorbitant fees.”
Song Jiulai: “…”
Are you out of your mind!
Song Jiulai looked around the city with curiosity.
Due to the news of the Myriad Immortal Sect hosting the Selection Competition, and the Azure Shadow Sect being one of the preliminary selection locations, the number of passing Cultivators had clearly increased.
Countless Cultivators walked side-by-side in the city, ranging from early Qi Condensation to Foundation Establishment Stage, Golden Core Stage, and so on.
The bustling scene was like that of a mortal city.
However, the mortals of the Azure Shadow Sect were not allowed to meet with Cultivators.
The Azure Shadow Sect’s attitude towards Cultivators was relatively gentle, but it was heard that mortals were confined to one place and could not easily meet with Cultivators.
Song Jiulai looked around. She had originally wanted to buy a Magic Treasure, but then she thought that with her early Qi Condensation cultivation, buying an early-stage Magic Treasure would be a waste.
Her main body was currently cultivating frantically in the Longshuang Great Marsh. Although she had increased her clones, it was clear that the clones’ early-stage cultivation was growing rapidly. She had only been out for a few days and already felt her Realm loosening.
If it weren’t for the fear of directly entering the mid Qi Condensation stage, she wouldn’t have done anything these past few days.
To participate in the Myriad Immortal Sect disciple selection competition, it was heard that the early stages were not about fighting other disciples, but about participating in the assessments given by the Myriad Immortal Sect first.
As for what the assessment was, she would have to go and see to know.
The Myriad Immortal Sect’s selection competition in the Azure Shadow Sect was not within the Azure Shadow Sect City, but on a mountain behind the Sect City.
That mountain was temporarily opened up by the Myriad Immortal Sect.
Song Jiulai arrived at the foot of the mountain. Here, clouds and mist swirled, and the entire mountain was faintly visible through the mist.
With the naked eye, one could not see anything within the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, countless Cultivators were already rushing forward.
Although there were differences in cultivation, all were at the foot of the mountain, and no one caused trouble.
There was only one path up the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, a smiling, endearingly naive attendant Cultivator was guarding, looking even younger than his age.
He guided every Cultivator who arrived at the foot of the mountain, telling them that the first trial to participate in the selection was to ascend the mountain from here.
To say ascend the mountain, it certainly wouldn’t be that easy.
The mountain path was completely obscured by clouds and mist, and Song Jiulai couldn’t even see what was inside.
Upon hearing this, the Cultivators did not hesitate and directly entered the mountain path.
Although people seemed to be continuously entering, once they went in, they disappeared without a trace.
It was as if no one had ever ascended the mountain.
Song Jiulai arrived at the foot of the mountain, and the attendant also looked at Song Jiulai, “Please.”
It was just an attendant, but with Song Jiulai’s current clone at the early Qi Condensation stage, she could only feel the other party’s astonishing aura.
“Golden Core Stage? Damn, the gap between people is indeed greater than between humans and animals!”
Such a young attendant was already at the Golden Core Stage.
The Myriad Immortal Sect was indeed extraordinary.
Song Jiulai’s heart pounded, and then she took a deep breath.
She stepped onto the unknown mountain path ahead.
As she took the first step, her vision blurred.
Faint clouds and mist swirled, and a slightly moist mist brushed across her face.
Everything around her became silent. The path ahead was unclear, and when she looked back, the path behind was also unclear.
If it were an ordinary person, they would be somewhat apprehensive of this scene.
Song Jiulai walked forward, still chatting with the System: “Can you cheat?”
System: “…As a Sect Master, aren’t you a bit too unpromising?”
Song Jiulai tutted: “What use do I have for such promise? What I want is to reliably enter the Myriad Immortal Sect!”
“It’s a pity, but no,” the System said. “The Myriad Immortal Sect must have used a Great Formation to alter this environment. Look at this technique; even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator couldn’t break it, let alone you. Don’t make things difficult for the System.”
“Alas.”
“Alas.”
The person and the System sighed together.
Song Jiulai walked in the mist, not knowing if she was going up or down.
Every step carried a heart-stopping feeling as if she were about to fall.
She just felt that the mist was very quiet, and she couldn’t see anything, and there was nothing.
She was very afraid that something would suddenly leap out of the mist.
Song Jiulai walked for a long time.
After a while, she suddenly realized something.
“My cultivation is low now, is the test about patience?”
For a newly entered early Qi Condensation cultivator, the concept of Time was quite pressing.
After all, the lifespan of an early Qi Condensation cultivator was similar to that of a mortal.
If she kept walking like this and the road ahead had no end, a cultivator with a poor temperament would likely not be able to endure it.
Her current temperament was extraordinary and she could endure it, but why should she endure it for nothing?
Bored, she said, “I’m going to watch a movie for a while. Call me if anyone shows up.”
System: “…”
Song Jiulai might not have been wrong. Although the time flow in this Illusionary Realm seemed to have no concept, there was clearly a BUG.
She was watching a movie, and before an hour of the movie had passed.
The scene before her changed.
Song Jiulai’s vision blurred, and with the next step, her sole landed on solid ground. The mist-shrouded mountain path finally revealed its true appearance.
A white-bearded old man and a gentle-looking middle-aged female cultivator stood before her.
They both looked at her with satisfaction.
“Not bad. This is a Time Illusionary Realm. One hour outside equals seven days inside. You walked for this one hour, which is equivalent to staying inside for seven days. You remained neither arrogant nor impatient, such temperament far surpasses others. You have passed this first trial.”
The female cultivator scrutinized Song Jiulai even more: “This Illusionary Realm changes with your patience. In these seven days, you did not show any impatience. Your future is immeasurable.”
Song Jiulai: “…”
System: “…How can I, a piece of data, feel embarrassed?”
“…”
The new plot is almost sorted out. I will start catching up tomorrow. The next two days will have at least five or six updates each =.= I will definitely achieve it this time!
