The Valley of Immortal Destiny.

When Wu Yu and the other two arrived at the entrance of the Immortal Destiny Valley, the disciples of the Immortal Destiny Valley were already present.

”With the appearance of the Spiritual Energy Fountain, many people have broken through. This year, quite a few have reached the fourth level of the Qi Condensation stage. Therefore, the total number of participants has increased a bit since last year.”

Wu Yu looked around and saw about a dozen people there.

”Not bad, about half of them are at the fourth level, half are at the fifth level and the fourth level is important for them to reach the Immortal Foundation. The difficulty is quite high.”

For Su Yan Li to obtain the Immortal Foundation at the fourth level of the Qi Condensation stage was her ability.

To a cultivator, the Immortal Foundation was too important.

In front of them was the Immortal Destiny Valley. From afar, one could see a mountain range covered by gray fog. From this location, one couldn't even see what was inside the vast mountain.

He could faintly hear the roars of wild beasts coming from that direction.

The wind that blew over from that direction was mixed with a type of wet air, and within that wet air was also a kind of fishy smell.

Although this place was adjacent to the Green Pao Mountains, it was like heaven and hell.

Wu Yu's unexpected arrival naturally attracted the attention of everyone present. Among the crowd, there was Lan Shuiyue, who was wearing a dark blue sword faction with her hair tied up in a ponytail and carrying a pair of swords on her back. She was talking and laughing with the people around her, like a blue flower being surrounded by flowers.

Yesterday's incident in the Valley of Treasures had not only not been clarified, it even made people feel that they were in for a good fight. Before Wu Yu arrived, someone else had brought up this matter, but in the end, Lan Shuiyue had scolded them, and she had also scolded Wu Yu for being a shameless person.

”Look, you shameless bastard, here he comes. ”Tsk tsk.” Beside Lan Shuiyue stood a graceful, slender woman with long hair that slightly curled down to her ample chest. She wore a wide, red robe that parted at the bottom, revealing a pair of round, white legs.

It was obvious that she was also a beauty, especially so for her provocative smile, which made people pay more attention to her.

In reality, other than the direct disciples of the Sect Leader and the Protectors, those who had cultivated to the fourth level of Qi Condensation were at least twice as old as Su Yan Li and the others. The woman in the red dress beside Lan Shuiyue also had a mature charm to her.

”Wu Yu, this isn't a place you should be, hurry up and get lost.” Lan Shuiyue hated him the most. Once he was in the vicinity, everyone would whisper among themselves.

Yesterday, when Wu Yu had beaten back Lan Shuiyue with his pole, the news had spread throughout the entire Blue Wave Mountain, causing Lan Shuiyue to lose face.

In the entire Heavenly Sword Sect, there were quite a few people who admired Wu Yu's peerless talent and had long overshadowed her, Lan Shuiyue.

When Lan Shuiyue had just finished speaking, she didn't expect Wu Yu and the other two to directly pass by her. No one cared about her at all.

Ahead of her was a river. Beside the river sat a few middle-aged men and women.

”These people are the helpers of Elder Shentu, he is about at the seventh level of the Qi Condensation stage. He should be able to become an elder by now and is a central pillar of the Sword Sect.”

Before they arrived, Su Yan Li had already introduced Wu Yu.

In the Heavenly Sword Sect, regardless of seniority, disciples above the sixth level of Body Tempering stage could become outer sect disciples. After condensing Qi, they could become core disciples, and those above the eighth level could become elders.

As for the positions of Sect Leader, Protector, Fifth Elder, and Law Enforcing Elder, it didn't just depend on one's strength. It also depended on one's qualifications and character.

The seventh level of the Qi Condensation stage was already considered the strongest amongst the core disciples.

”These Qi Condensation elders are here to assist Elder Shentu. They have been guarding the Immortal Destiny Valley to prevent outsiders and demons from entering our territory. We normally cultivate peacefully thanks to their protection.”

Thus, Su Yan Li respected them a lot.

They looked around, and whenever they saw a beautiful disciple, they would whistle. On the other hand, Su Yan Li brought Wu Yu and bowed to those people as she said, ”Su Yan Li, Wu Yu, greets elder Shentu, and all the other senior brothers and sisters.”

At this time, Elder Shentu was sitting on the other side of the river, dressed in a shabby robe, with a similarly shabby Daoist hat on his head, his body was small and hunched, his skin was wrinkled, and he looked very old. At this time, Elder Shentu turned around, and his hair was completely white, and his eyes were cloudy, and there was even an eye that was blind.

The Qi Condensation stage had a lifespan of two hundred years. Before one could form a golden core, their flesh and blood would be depleted and they would die. Since Elder Shentu had yet to reach the golden core, it was obvious that there wouldn't be much time in the future.

Death was the fate of the vast majority of cultivators.

Unless … he reached Immortal Ascension.

Wu Yu noticed that Elder Shentu was holding a fishing rod in his hand. The tip of the rod actually extended three transparent thin lines. Those thin lines didn't pierce into the river with a fishing hook, but extended endlessly into the depths of the Immortal Edge Valley. If one looked closely, they could see that the Fa Li in the fishing rod was flowing and there was a faint 'weapon formation'. Clearly, this was a magic tool, and a very powerful one at that!

”So you're Little Feng's new disciple? Not bad.” Elder Shentu looked Wu Yu up and down with his cloudy eyes, then he nodded to himself.
