The event is divided into several stages and lasts for a long time. Participants will be eliminated layer by layer. It does not mean that everyone can actually participate in the Nanling event.
First of all, except for the direct forces of the Supreme Induction Sect, the rest of the people who want to obtain admission tickets need to pass levels. Forces such as the Yun Sect do not need to obtain admission tickets. This can be regarded as a special treatment of the Supreme Induction Sect.
In other words, Ye Liuyun and his companions were exempted from the first stage of the test. The first stage is called the Tianmen Trial. Only by passing the Tianmen Trial can they truly participate in the Nanling event. This stage will eliminate a large number of disciples with poor qualifications, similar to the Yunxia Sect's Road to Heaven.
The Supreme Induction Sect has set up several assessment levels, but the tests of the later levels can only be known after entering the Heavenly Gate.
Soon there were only three days left until the Nanling event, but on this day, Ye Liuyun suddenly received an unexpected message from Jin Xiangrui.
Jin Xiangrui actually knew that Ye Liuyun had become a disciple of the Yun Sect, and that Jin Xiangrui had been promoted from Jingjing City to Yunhai City. Jin Xiangrui asked Ye Liuyun to meet at Wanbao Tower in Yunhai City, saying that she had something to discuss with Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun was not quite sure how Jin Xiangrui knew his identity. Since Jin Xiangrui knew that Ye Liuyun was in Yun Sect, she must also know that Ye Liuyun was a disciple of Yunxia Sect before.
So Ye Liuyun did not hide it. It just so happened that she also wanted to go to Yunhai City to see what the differences were between this place and Jingjing City.
Yunzong was not far from Yunhai City. Ye Liuyun rode Liusu and soon arrived outside a city obscured by a formation. This Yunhai City was hidden in a huge valley in the Yunhai Mountains. Only cultivators could enter, and mortals could not.
Ye Liuyun rode on Liusu and penetrated the barrier of the formation, and then came to the outside of an exquisite and majestic city.
"Wow! This is the Cloud Sea City. It is indeed much more spectacular than the Silent City. Liusu, let's go down." Ye Liuyun patted Liusu's head.
Liusu quickly stopped at the entrance of Yunhai City. There was a powerful anti-fly formation in this place. Even the cultivators from the Four Extreme Secret Realms could not fly in the city. If all the cultivators could fly freely, the city would have been in chaos long ago.
The number of cultivators entering and leaving Yunhai City is several times that of Jijing City. Here, Taoist monks are more common.
However, since it is a cultivators' market, the general facilities are naturally similar to those of Silent City. However, this place is exclusively owned by the Yun Sect. It is not like the Silent City where the four sects have common management. Here, the Yun Sect is the only dominant one.
As soon as Ye Liuyun arrived at the city gate, the disciple guarding the gate saw Ye Liuyun.
"Eh? Is that Senior Sister Ye? Oh my god, I see Senior Sister Ye. Senior Sister Ye is my idol." The outer disciple of Yun Sect who was guarding the city gate exclaimed immediately when he saw Ye Liuyun coming.
The other cultivators who were entering and leaving Yunhai City were also filled with amazement when they saw Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun's temperament was really becoming more and more attractive.
That kind of confident temperament, coupled with a pure and gentle face and a mature and plump figure, is definitely a temptation of pure desire. To put it bluntly, it is both pure and sexy.
"So beautiful? Is she a fairy from the Yun Sect? But, it's so strange, why is the cultivation level of this fairy only at the early stage of Lingxi Realm? Judging from her clothes, she should be a core disciple of the Yun Sect." Many cultivators who knew about the Yun Sect were surprised and confused by Ye Liuyun.
"Hello, Senior Sister Ye." The outer disciples hurriedly bowed and greeted Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun smiled slightly.
"Well, fellow brothers and sisters, you don't have to be polite. You have worked hard in carrying out the mission."
Ye Liuyun's smile almost seduced the male disciples away. There was no other way. When the temptation reached a certain level, it was equivalent to practicing the art of charm.
Every word and smile of hers is full of temptation, which is no longer something Ye Liuyun can control on his own. She is beautiful, powerful, and easy-going. Such a woman is a beautiful scenery wherever she goes.
Ye Liuyun currently ranks second in the Yun Sect's beauty rankings. It's funny to say that in the Yun Sect's beauty disciple rankings, the top 100 are almost all men, and Lin Aoxue is ranked third.
In fact, Lin Aoxue is definitely not much worse than Ye Liuyun and Tan Tai Mingyue in terms of appearance, but it's a problem of temperament and personality. She is completely an iceberg that strangers don't want to approach. No matter how beautiful she is, she is not easy to get along with.
"Sister, are you here in Yunhai City for something?" one of the disciples asked.
"Well, I'm going to attend the Nanling event in a few days, so I came to Yunhai City to see if there is anything I need. Okay, I'll go in first, you guys get busy." Ye Liuyun replied with a smile.
After saying that, Ye Liuyun walked into the city with a smile on his face. After Ye Liuyun left, the disciples of the Yun Sect put away their smiles and glared at the passers-by monks who were unable to move on the roadside.
"What are you looking at? Stop blocking the door. Your eyeballs are about to pop out." The Yun Sect disciple began to scold.
After this scolding, the monks passing by withdrew their gazes and walked away in embarrassment.
After entering Yunhai City, we found that it was prosperous. The streets were much wider than those in Silent City and looked much more open. It was not as crowded as that in Silent City.
"Oh my! This place is indeed much higher-end than Silent City." Ye Liuyun sighed, then looked around and found that Wanbao Tower must be in a very conspicuous location.
Sure enough, after searching for a few rounds, Ye Liuyun discovered a magnificent building complex. There was no need to look around, this place was the Wanbao Tower, which was more than three or four times larger than the Wanbao Tower in Silent City.
Ye Liuyun did not go in directly, but contacted Jin Xiangrui first. A moment later, a woman wearing a golden and red glazed skirt, with a charming and dignified temperament, walked out of the attic.
Upon closer inspection, it was Jin Xiangrui. Jin Xiangrui looked everywhere but couldn't find anyone for a long time until Ye Liuyun waved to her. Then Jin Xiangrui walked up to Ye Liuyun's face with an incredible expression.
She looked Ye Liuyun up and down, then asked tentatively.
"Mr. Ye, is that you?"
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"Haha, Master Jin, you never expected that. Originally, I wanted to turn into a man to see you, but after thinking about it, I decided not to." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
Jin Xiangrui couldn't help but smile bitterly for a moment. Looking at the woman in front of her who was more beautiful than herself, Jin Xiangrui was a little disappointed for a moment. Although they had investigated Ye Liuyun's identity, she still had a lucky mentality at that time.
But I didn’t expect that Ye Liuyun was really a woman.
Ye Liuyun saw the flash of disappointment in Jin Xiangrui's eyes, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Ahem, Master Jin, why did you call me here? Do you need to trade pills?" Ye Liuyun said after a few dry coughs.
"Well, how about we go in and sit down?" Jin Xiangrui thought for a moment and then suggested.
Ye Liuyun nodded, then followed Jin Xiangrui in. No one knew what they talked about, but Ye Liuyun came out half an hour later.
"What a hassle." Ye Liuyun sighed, and then went straight back to Yunzong. She didn't spend much time in Yunhai City, as she would have plenty of time after the Nanling event was over.
As for what Jin Xiangrui told her? To be frank, it was still a matter of cooperation, but Ye Liuyun needed to consider this matter.
And just like that, three days passed.
"The Nanling event held every 200 years has officially begun. All the outstanding people in Nanling who are under years old are invited to go to the Tianyi Mountains in Nanling to sign up. The registration period is one week and no one will be accepted after the deadline." A cold and majestic female voice spread throughout Nanling, but her voice could only be heard by practitioners.
This means that the Nanling event has officially begun.
Chapter 321 The Grand Event Begins (6000 words)
The Yun Sect’s main peak martial arts arena.
Today, all the disciples and senior leaders of Yun Sect have gathered here.
The atmosphere was extremely solemn, and the one hundred people standing in the front were the real protagonists of today. These one hundred people were wearing various kinds of clothes, which were not the uniforms of sect disciples.
Because according to the rules of the Tai Shang Ganying Sect, disciples participating in the Nanling event represent themselves and not the sect, and are not allowed to wear the sect's disciple uniforms.
What does it mean?
That is to say, even if you are a monk from a sect, you participate in the Nanling event to represent your personal interests and personal honor. Of course, this is only a requirement of the Supreme Induction Sect for the sake of so-called fairness and justice.
The quotas they gave to Yun Sect and Yunxia Sect were given through the back door, but this matter was not brought to the surface and was only known to the insiders of this interest group.
This superficial work still needs to be done, so the Yun Sect disciples who participated in the Nanling event all wore their own personal clothes. It’s really a flourish when everyone wears their own clothes.
But the most attractive ones are those three people, Tan Tai Mingyue, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue.
This Tan Tai Ming Yue was wearing a lavender dress, with her long black hair draped behind her without any braid. She was holding her purple jade guqin in her arms, standing there quietly with her eyes closed. She was very beautiful.
Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue look like a pair of sisters with completely different temperaments and personalities. Lin Aoxue is wearing a simple white dress, full of the aura of a female hero, while Ye Liuyun is wearing a flowing yet sexy red dress.
This dress seemed to have a strange magical power. When Ye Liuyun stood there, she exuded a soul-stirring power, which almost drew the attention of most of the weak-willed disciples around her to her.
"Senior Sister Ye is so beautiful today. I think she is even prettier than Senior Sister Tan Tai."
"Yes, I don't know why, but I feel that Senior Sister Ye has a more charming temperament today than usual. The Senior Sister Ye I see usually looks like a lotus flower emerging from the water, but today, Senior Sister Ye looks like a beautiful and speechless red and pink rose."
Ye Liuyun hugged Lin Aoxue's arm and leaned on her, his face full of joy. Today she gave people the feeling of a young bride waiting to be married.
"Hey, hey, hey! You are so shameless. No wonder there is a saying in the previous life that when men become coquettish, women have no chance. Why are you suddenly sick again?" Lin Aoxue said with a dark face as he looked at Ye Liuyun beside him.
The reason why she is so charming today is because of the Seven Fantasy Glass Skirt on her body. This dress itself will increase the charm of the wearer in the eyes of others.
People who like pure faces think that Ye Liuyun is pure. They can tell what they are thinking and that is how they feel when they see Ye Liuyun.
This dress is very useful. Ye Liuyun originally wanted to give it to Lin Aoxue, but Lin Aoxue was too thin-skinned and was not happy about it, so Ye Liuyun naturally had to make use of it.
Her temperament is very suitable for this dress. Her appearance and temperament are extremely deceptive in themselves. When she wears such an outfit, the deceptiveness instantly increases several times. Even those female monks can't resist Ye Liuyun's charm.
Because of Ye Liuyun's participation in the sect conference, he has become an idol in the eyes of many female cultivators. As long as they develop feelings of admiration for Ye Liuyun in their hearts, they will also be captivated by him.
Once beauty reaches a certain level, it is beauty regardless of gender. Few people present looked at Ye Liuyun in a normal way. There was no other way. As long as there were seven emotions and six desires, it would be difficult to completely resist the power of the Seven Illusions Glazed Skirt.
However, there were also a few who felt nothing at all. The first one was Tan Tai Mingyue. She either looked at people or Lin Aoxue. As for Ye Liuyun, maybe Ye Liuyun was not her type, so she felt nothing in her heart. Then there was Murong Huan. This guy, because he had the Millennium Eyes, was immune to this kind of mental attack.
"Tsk, aren't I doing this to give you face? So many people are looking at me, doesn't this better reflect your vision?" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
"Pfft! Can you be serious? You're my slave. Just listening to me gives me goosebumps." Lin Aoxue's hair stood on end.
But in fact, Ye Liuyun was speaking normally. This was the power of the clothes, which corrected the language spoken by the user. You can understand it as an illusion of the five senses.
The power of the Seven Illusions Glazed Skirt can affect the six senses of humans, namely vision, hearing, smell, touch, taste and spiritual consciousness. Unless one's soul power is higher than Ye Liuyun's, even spiritual consciousness cannot see through the power of this dress.
Even if a man wears this dress, he will be extremely charming. It has nothing to do with gender. Of course, no man would be so perverted.
"There's nothing I can do. This dress is specially made by Wanbaolou for the female members of their family for business use. It has a built-in five sense correction effect and will correct some language words to make women more charming and feminine. Unless you have no interest in me at all, you will not be affected." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
Lin Aoxue naturally knew how terrible this dress was. After all, when she tried it on, she found that what she said was different from what she heard.
She knew what Ye Liuyun wanted to do, she just couldn't stand Ye Liuyun's style, but Ye Liuyun himself was having a lot of fun.
"All the disciples who are going to participate in the Nanling Grand Event, the time has come, you may set off. According to the rules, you are all representing yourselves, so you cannot openly represent the Yun Sect to participate. However, as long as you win a place in the Nanling Grand Event, or are noticed by the upper sect, then you will be the greatest blessing for the Yun Sect."
"I wish you can shine at the Nanling event. Today, you are proud of the Yun Sect. Perhaps one day, the sect will be proud of you. Please, everyone. The next hundred years of the Yun Sect depends on you." Fang Mingyu said solemnly.
As soon as these words were spoken, all the disciples of the Yun Sect suddenly shouted in unison.
"Please, fellow brothers and sisters, strengthen our Yun Sect. We are waiting in the sect, wishing our brothers and sisters a triumphant return."
Ye Liuyun listened to the loud cheers of the crowds around him, and at that moment, a different emotion arose in his heart, that is, a sense of pride.
In fact, Ye Liuyun doesn't need to care about Yun Zong's opinion at all. As long as she is allowed to go, once the Supreme Induction Sect takes a fancy to her, she can completely ignore the threat from Yun Zong and directly join the Supreme Induction Sect.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Ye Liuyun decided to forget it. She had endless lifespan, and it would be boring if she climbed too high all at once. She knew that the Yun Sect was facing a hundred-year crisis, and it was precisely because of this hundred-year crisis that the Yun Sect wanted to control the Yunxia Sect and other four subordinate sects.
Everything has its cause and effect. We cannot only look at these issues from one side.
Ye Liuyun actually plays it as a development game. If it's a game, what's the point of finishing it in one go?
"Okay, you can set off now. The Great Elder and others have already gone to Tianyi City to arrange accommodation for you." Fang Mingyu said finally.
As soon as these words came out, Murong Huan and the others flew into the sky and flew towards the Tianyi Mountains where the Supreme Induction Sect was located. Ye Liuyun also greeted Meng Xianer and the others as soon as possible, and then took out an exquisite boat-shaped flying magic weapon.
Ye Liuyun stuffed a spirit stone into the energy slot, then carried Lin Aoxue into the sky and chased in the direction where Murong Huan and others left.
Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue's realms are not as high as theirs, so their flying speed is definitely not as fast as theirs. Besides, there is still a week left, so there is no need to be too anxious.
This flying magic weapon was exchanged by Ye Liuyun for his contribution at the Yunzong market not long ago. The spaceship quickly passed through the Yunzong sky, sank into the clouds, and then moved forward at a constant speed above the sea of clouds.
"Oh, it feels so comfortable. Aoxue, at this speed, we should be able to reach Tianyi Mountains within three days, right?" Ye Liuyun asked as he stood at the bow and watched the sun gradually rising from the end of the sea of clouds.
"Well, it's about the same. Although we have combat power close to the Dao Palace Out-of-Body Realm, we can't compare with them in terms of flying speed. They can probably get there in one day, but we can't." Lin Aoxue said as she sat aside.
But Lin Aoxue was not in a particularly good mood, because, if nothing unexpected happened, she would be separated from Ye Liuyun for a while when she went to the Nanling event.
But in fact, they won't be separated for long. When her cultivation level is higher, it will be very easy for her to come to Yunzong to see Ye Liuyun.
In fact, to Ye Liuyun, having Lin Aoxue around him was a burden, because she was immortal, and it didn't matter how she died, she was just afraid that it would affect Lin Aoxue.
During the time that Lin Aoxue was around, Ye Liuyun didn't spend much time researching new elixirs. There was no other way, as he was afraid of causing a big mess and dragging Lin Aoxue into the trap.
"Hey, Junior Sister Lin, Junior Sister Ye, you two don't seem to be in a hurry at all. Would it be convenient for you to give me a ride?" Just as Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue were sighing repeatedly, a voice that made Ye Liuyun irritated came again.
Jiang Yan, dressed in a black robe with gold patterns, appeared at the edge of their spaceship at some point and flew at the same speed as the spaceship.
Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes secretly, then looked to the right with a smile.
"Oh, it's Senior Brother Jiang. My sister and I have low cultivation levels and can't fly as fast as you senior brothers and sisters, so we won't delay you." Ye Liuyun said with a wry smile.
But Jiang Yan is still very thick-skinned.
"Oh, the journey to Tianyi Mountains is long. The two junior sisters are so beautiful, they will definitely meet some ignorant guys on the way. With a senior brother by their side, he can also be a flower protector." Jiang Yan continued.
Lin Aoxue, who was standing aside, was extremely annoyed. In her opinion, Jiang Yan was even more irritating than Tan Tai Mingyue. He actually had feelings for her husband. If possible, she really wanted to beat him up.
"No need. My sister and I are used to being alone together. Senior Brother Jiang, please leave quickly." Lin Aoxue said impatiently.
Jiang Yan was immediately embarrassed. He didn't know why, but he always felt that Lin Aoxue was very hostile towards him. However, there was nothing he could do. Both sisters were unwilling to have him on board, so he could only give up.
"Okay then, we'll see you in Tianyi City." Jiang Yan sighed helplessly, then turned into a beam of fire and disappeared from the sight of Ye Liuyun and the others in an instant like a rocket.
But the annoying guy was not over yet. After a while, someone else came. This time it was Tan Tai Ming Yue.
"Two junior sisters, can you give me a ride?" Tan Tai Mingyue looked at Lin Aoxue and smiled gently.
To be honest, this Tan Tai Ming Yue is really pretty. If Ye Liuyun didn't have feelings for Lin Aoxue, he really wouldn't have the heart to reject her.
"Well, Senior Sister Tan Tai, I'm sorry, my sister and I have something to do on the way, so it's not appropriate for you to follow us." Ye Liuyun declined tactfully.
When Tan Tai Ming Yue heard this, she sighed softly, then said goodbye and also turned into a ray of purple light and disappeared at the end of the sea of clouds.
But after a while, another spaceship approached Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue's spaceship. Upon closer inspection, it was Han Yao and the others.
