However, Huang Jian said that after Ling Xiao left, Huang Jian rolled up the powder in his sleeves, stood up and walked into the hall, then went to the back hall to find Elder Fuling.

Knock on the door respectfully.

A "Come in." came soon from inside. The voice was simple and clear, without redundant words.

Huang Jian carefully pushed the door open and went in. He saw a beautiful woman in front of him. She didn't have any makeup on her face, but she had an air of elegance.

Wearing a white robe with a red silk belt tied around her waist, she looked nothing special on the surface, but Huang Jian recognized that it was Fuling's famous protective magic weapon "Yanri Ribbon". It was rumored to be hers.

Her father, the previous sect leader Fu Huang, left her a high-quality magic weapon for personal protection.

The magic weapons used by monks are generally divided into four levels: Talisman, Magical, Spiritual, and Immortal. Each level is divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. Outer disciples such as Ling Xiao cannot use these.

They are low-grade talismans; inner sect disciples also use mid-grade talismans. There are many magical artifacts that are better than talismans, and they are more difficult to control. Only the elders in the sect have a few upper-grade ones, but most of them are not inferior to low-grade ones.

, just mid-range.

In the entire Qiyun Sect, Fu Ling is the only one who can use high-grade magic weapons.

Fu Lingzheng was sitting there cross-legged, her beautiful eyes still closed and not opened, and she said lightly: "What's the matter?" It wasn't that she had any objections to Huang Jian, it was just her nature.

Even though the elder Fuling in front of him was younger than him, Huang Jian did not dare to be disrespectful to her at all. Fu Ling's cultivation was better than his by an unknown amount! He immediately said respectfully: "Master Fu

Uncle, what do you think of these powders?"

Fu Ling waved his hand and took the powder in his hand out of the air. He glanced at it and immediately revealed a surprised expression: "Seventy-nine percent purity? No, it has barely reached 80% purity! It is such a high-purity powder? This is

how come?"

80% pure!

Huang Jian couldn't help but be shocked. The original estimate of 75% purity was already incredible, but what the outer disciple extracted was actually 80% purity powder?

Huang Jian did not dare to hide anything and quickly told the whole story. Even Ling Xiao did not hide the reason why he took the risk to purify the elixir because he failed to complete the task.

After finishing his narration, Huang Jian stood there respectfully, not daring to say another word.

"More than ten elixirs were extracted, and only this one was extracted?" Fu Ling frowned slightly and asked.

Huang Jian thought for a while and said cautiously: "Report to Uncle Master. At that time, he wanted to pass the mission, but he only took out one copy. I guess it was because he only had these on hand."

Fuling nodded, then shook his head, "The purity of these powders is indeed quite high. But in alchemy, purity and quality are important, but the success rate is a key factor that cannot be ignored! His success rate is a bit too low!

But--" She pondered slightly, "If you succeed once, you can have such a high purity and alchemy talent. I'm afraid it's pretty good."

Huang Jian nodded in agreement, then paused and asked carefully: "Uncle Master, does that count as him passing the mission? Let him enter the palace to listen to the lecture?"

"Of course it counts!" Fu Ling glared at him, "Not just this time, in the future, whenever I give lectures, regardless of whether his contribution is sufficient or not, he can enter the hall to listen!"

Huang Jian quickly responded: "Yes, Uncle Master."

He bowed respectfully again before retreating. Elder Fuling seemed to be harsh in his words, but in fact he still valued Ling Xiao quite a lot.

Even he couldn't help but feel envious of Ling Xiao. He was such a lucky boy. He was able to extract such a high-purity powder and attracted Fuling's attention.

He has been in the inner sect for a long time, but he is far more aware of Fu Ling's energy than an outer sect disciple like Ling Xiao!

Mo Kan Fuling is the youngest among the elders, but her cultivation talent is astonishing. She is also one of the only two fourth-level alchemists in the Qiyun Sect. Coupled with her status as the daughter of the previous sect leader, her status in the Qiyun Sect is transcendent.

, even the current sect master Geng Xin would not dare to refute her face easily!

…

However, Ling Xiao, who was waiting in the hall to listen to the lecture, naturally did not know this.

This side hall is extremely vast and is divided into three parts: the front hall, the back hall, and the inner hall. The front hall is where the mission was verified; the inner hall is where the elders of the sect rest and the earth-fire room is used for alchemy.

The hall is where the sect gives lectures. The back hall alone is enough to accommodate nearly a thousand disciples. There are futons placed every three feet in the hall for disciples to use when listening. Of course, many outer sects gathered at this time

Disciples, it’s already quite crowded.

Ling Xiao took Feng Yi to find a place to sit cross-legged and closed his eyes to relax.

As soon as he sat down, someone came over with a long cyan sword hanging under his waist. The runes were faint and looked of extraordinary quality. He had a warm smile on his face, but it looked fake, "Junior Brother Ling, you

You're here too, what a surprise to senior brother. Do you have enough elixirs picked this month?" He was dressed in white and looked quite elegant.

Ling Xiao's eyes immediately darkened.

His name is Qi Ming. He started with Ling Xiao and is now at the third level of Qi training. The long sword under his waist is a middle-grade talisman that is extremely rare among the outer disciples, the Qingfeng Sword! Most of the others

It was hard work to complete the task, but he was able to accumulate contribution points and exchange them for a mid-grade talisman. From this alone, the difference can be seen.

He has a high level of cultivation and good talent in alchemy, so he has always been considered as the most likely disciple to enter the inner sect among the disciples of that year.

You must know that among every group of outer disciples accepted by Qi Yun Sect, those who can enter the inner sect are almost one in a hundred.

Of course, to become an inner disciple of the Qiyun Sect, one requires one to reach the sixth level of Qi training; two, one needs to accumulate a total of 30,000 contribution points; three, one must also pass the sect's test. Of course Qi Ming does not have it yet, but

He is already ahead of many outer disciples.

This also made Qi Ming even more arrogant, with his eyes above his head, and he didn't pay much attention to others.

Originally, Ling Xiao and he had no quarrel, but a conflict occurred just a few days ago. It was when he and Fengyi were picking elixirs in the wild, and they happened to find five Acacia plants connected together.

Grass.

Acacia grass has milky white stems and bright white flowers. It is a commonly used auxiliary medicine for refining low-level elixirs. There are always several plants growing together. If there are seven consecutive plants at the most, it is already a second-level elixir, which is enough.

Exchange for 30 contribution points! And even if there are five consecutive plants like this, which are only first-level elixirs, each plant can still exchange for 3 contribution points.

Of course they were overjoyed. If they picked these few more plants, most of the sect's tasks for this month would be completed.

But just when they were about to step forward to pick them, Qi Ming suddenly led someone from the side and forcefully said that they had discovered these elixirs first and wanted to take over them.

Of course Ling Xiao and Feng Yi were not willing to do so, but they were only monks at the first level of Qi training, but the opponent was so outnumbered that their arms could not twist the thighs, so they had no choice but to leave angrily...

As both disciples of the Qi Yun Sect, he could actually do such a thing, which made Ling Xiao and Feng Yi tremble with fear. Qi Ming, for some unknown reason, seemed to have his eyes on the two of them. In the past few days, he had been pushing further and further.

Make trouble for both of them.

At this time, he came over and made sarcastic comments, which was really annoying.

Fengyi was furious, "You, why are you like this?" She had a delicate temperament, and these words were spoken only when she was particularly disgusted with people.

But it was obvious that Qi Ming had no lethality at all. The latter pretended to be surprised, "What? I came to care about my fellow disciple out of kindness. Is there anything wrong with him?"

"you--"

Feng Yi had never been a sharp-tongued person, but when faced with such nonsense from him, she was immediately choked and speechless.

Ling Xiao was already aware of his hypocrisy, but he didn't have any evidence in his hands, and he didn't want to fall out with him here. He secretly pulled Feng Yi to stop her, and then said to Qi Ming: "We have gathered it all, don't bother me, senior brother.

.”

At this time, the strange behavior of the three of them had attracted the attention of the surrounding disciples, and they all looked over.

Ling Xiao didn't want to get into trouble, but Qi Ming refused to let him go easily. He looked at him and sneered: "What? Junior brother only completed the task by borrowing the elixir from Junior Sister Fengyi, right? I don't dare to admit it at this time.

Already?"

He heard the conversation between Feng Yi and Ling Xiao that day and knew that the elixir Ling Xiao picked was far from enough. It had only been a few days, and he would not believe that Ling Xiao could collect the required amount just to take it for granted.

Think so.

But before Ling Xiao opened his mouth, Feng Yi was already angry and defensive: "Ling Xiao didn't borrow the elixir from me!"

She was naturally willing to lend the elixir to Ling Xiao in private, but if she said this in public, it would inevitably make Ling Xiao lose face and make people laugh at Ling Xiao for relying on a woman's help. What's more, Qi

It was purely slander, and she was naturally even more angry.

Seeing that everyone around her was looking over, she couldn't help but defend Ling Xiao. But everyone knew about her relationship with Ling Xiao. When she heard what she said, they thought she was protecting Ling Xiao's face, but she believed Qi Ming.

More.

Qi Ming even laughed directly and said: "Junior sister, why should I cover up his shame? Some people just know how to hide behind women?"

"You——" Feng Yi was angry.

Ling Xiao grabbed her, looked up at Qi Ming, and said calmly: "Senior Brother Qi, you are serious. Even if we, brothers and sisters, help each other, what can we not say openly? What's more, although I am unworthy, I don't have a senior brother.

That's a clever way to get things done, but it won't make it impossible to complete the sect's mission."

"Chi——"

"Ha ha."

Although he was reserved in his words, he only talked about "snatching" and omitted the word "plunder". But there were many people around him, and more than one person had been bullied by Qi Ming's power. When he heard what he said, he immediately felt the same hatred towards the enemy. There were many people at once.

The man laughed secretly, looking at Qi Ming with a shameless look.

"You——" Qi Ming was choked and became furious, but Ling Xiao's words and actions were impeccable.

Ling Xiao only said "snatching". If he insisted on slandering him, wouldn't it be equivalent to admitting that he had "robbed"? Therefore, he held it in his stomach and his face turned purple.

Fengyi was usually low-key, and Qi Ming had never noticed it. But after the conflict with Ling Xiao and Fengyi, he discovered that Fengyi's shy appearance was actually cute, and he couldn't help but be moved. But after several entanglements

, but Feng Yi just hid behind Ling Xiao and refused to pay attention to him. This made him feel frustrated and angry at the same time. Having suffered such a loss again this time, he felt even more blocked in his heart.

A ruthless light suddenly flashed in his eyes. Although the sect strictly prohibited his fellow disciples from doing anything in private, he had a third level of Qi training and wanted to force a kid with a first level of Qi training to make a fool of himself. He had plenty of means.

The true energy circulated slowly, pressing towards Ling Xiao from a distance.

But at this moment, a clear and clear scolding suddenly came, "What are you doing?" The voice was clear and gentle, just like a cold plum blossom blooming proudly in the ice and snow. It was indescribably beautiful, but it also revealed a bit of coldness.
