"Hey! Let them be. Any one of them is stronger than us now. What else can we say?" Yun Yun smiled with emotion.
Time passed slowly. No one challenged the top floor, and no one challenged the bottom floor either. Ye Liuyun was happy and relaxed anyway. However, starting from the third day, the situation was different. The floors at the back also began to be fought over.
The thousands of extra cultivators began to get anxious, but Ye Liuyun began to have fun.
That meant that people kept entering the bottom floor where Ye Liuyun was, which was the thousandth floor.
However, they didn't even make it to the 100th floor, which meant that they were all cultivators at the bottom of the list, some even at the Nascent Soul stage. Ye Liuyun didn't despise them and used them to test the effect of the combined elixir.
For example, how to maximize the power of one of your own elixirs. Taking elixirs randomly will not actually produce particularly good results.
For example, Ye Liuyun discovered that some elixirs with the same attributes could be combined to double the power of a certain attribute.
For example, Thunder Cloud Pill + Heavenly Thunder Tempering Pill + Thunder Control Pill can allow Ye Liuyun to continuously release the power of thunder and lightning. If Thunderstorm Pill is added, the thunder and lightning power he releases will become violent and ferocious.
The same goes for other elixirs with attributes. Ye Liuyun has also begun to try new fusion elixirs. She currently only has two types of fusion elixirs, which are not enough.
Also, not all elixirs can be fused. Some elixirs will be ruined if they are forcefully squeezed together.
Finally, under Lin Qingyou's guidance, Ye Liuyun began to match the elixirs according to the properties and characteristics of the elixirs according to the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint.
She also combined some extremely destructive pills, but it was still difficult to surpass the lethality of the nuclear pill.
Just like that, the trial of the genius ended on time at 12 o'clock in the evening.
"I declare that the Tianjiao Trial has officially ended. Those who occupy the thousandth floor of the Tianjiao Tower will enter the final trial of discussion of the Tao. At the same time, these thousand people will be qualified to freely join any faction of the Supreme Induction Sect." Fairy Taiyin announced.
Those monks who did not occupy a level sighed in disappointment.
Their journey ended, and on the Tianjiao Tower side, after the trial was over, everyone's names appeared on the surface of the Tianjiao Tower.
Then they were all teleported out. After they came out, the Tianjiao Tower immediately flew towards Tianyi City and landed in the center of the most conspicuous square in Tianyi City, standing there.
Not only their names, but also the images of Ye Liuyun and others appeared on the Tianjiao Tower, allowing people coming and going to admire their heroic figures.
This is what truly made him famous in the Nanling cultivation world.

After Fairy Taiyin announced the end of the eighth level of the trial, she said another sentence.
"The ninth level, the Dao Trial, is actually no longer a regular trial. A regular trial ends at the eighth level, which means that the Nanling Festival is basically over."
"The ninth level will be held at the Enlightenment Platform of the Supreme Induction Sect in three days. This is a test of your understanding and has nothing to do with your cultivation. The specific method of the competition will be explained on site at that time. Now go back. The one thousand of you are already the brightest stars of this Nanling event. Your names will stand tall in Tianyi City for three hundred years. After three hundred years, new trialists will challenge your positions."
After she finished speaking, Fairy Taiyin left. Ye Liuyun and the others felt their blood boiling after listening to her.
She had never thought of becoming famous in Nanling, but she did not expect it to come true today.
However, just when Ye Liuyun was lamenting that she was going to become famous, someone suddenly pulled the soft flesh on her lower back hard, and she jumped far away in pain.
"Damn!" After Ye Liuyun landed, she quickly looked behind her. When she looked back, she saw Lin Aoxue looking at her with her hands folded and an unhappy expression on her face.
"It's me? What's the matter? You turtle bastard." Lin Aoxue cursed angrily.
Ye Liuyun touched his waist, then walked up to Lin Aoxue and stared with wide eyes, saying angrily.
"What? You lost to me and you're not convinced? Let me tell you, losing is losing. No matter how you lost, you begged for mercy anyway." Ye Liuyun reminded.
Lin Aoxue became very angry when she thought about what happened yesterday. She actually admitted defeat and begged for mercy from Ye Liuyun. It was really shameful.
"You? Humph! Great, today happens to be a happy day. After we go back, how about we fight for 300 rounds? Let's see who is stronger. How about it?" Lin Aoxue's face changed like a mask. The unhappiness on her face suddenly disappeared, and she turned into a playful smile.
Ye Liuyun, who was originally very proud, became a little scared after hearing what Lin Aoxue said, because she had never won before.
But this time, we finally got the upper hand. No matter what, we can't retreat. We have to face the difficulties head-on, no matter how difficult it is.
"Okay, three hundred rounds then. Whoever gets tired first will be the grandson." Ye Liuyun agreed seriously.
As the two men talked, flames flashed in their eyes, and they looked like neither of them wanted to admit defeat.
"Hey? Brother Yu, why are they arguing again?" Yan Yu and Chen Yao said something to Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun who were confronting each other not far away, then walked over.
When they saw Yan Yu and Chen Yao coming over, they snorted coldly at the same time and turned their heads to look in other directions.
"What's wrong? Why did you start arguing as soon as you came out? By the way, little sister, you got the first pair, this should be a happy thing, but why do you seem to be not happy at all?" Yan Yu asked puzzledly.
One of them got third place and the other got fourth place. They were very happy. They knew that from tomorrow on, they would be extraordinary.
"It's nothing. Someone lost to me and was not convinced. We even agreed to fight for 300 rounds." Ye Liuyun said, glancing at Lin Aoxue with his eyes slanted.
When Lin Aoxue heard about this, she became a little uneasy.
"You only won once, and you keep talking about it? I have won you countless times, why don't you say anything? What are you so proud of? You are so despicable. I won you with real ability, but you won me just by cheating." Lin Aoxue retorted.
"Hehe, I won, anyway, I won, what can you do, just tell me, are you begging for mercy, are you, shouting, ahem, forget it, you won't lose your life in this place." Ye Liuyun said as he saw many people surrounding him, and for a moment, he quickly shut up.
Murong Huan and the others are here. When there are outsiders around, there are some things that cannot be said casually.
“Junior Sister Lin, congratulations. I didn’t expect that you would win first place in the Trial of the Prodigies. Now I have to admit that the sect’s approach was correct.” Murong Huan said with a smile.
Lin Aoxue nodded.
"Everyone, senior brothers and sisters, didn't you all get a place? But why do you seem like you are not particularly happy?" Lin Aoxue did not continue to compete with Ye Liuyun.
When this matter was mentioned, Murong Huan and others laughed.
“We know our own limitations. Even though we are all top disciples in Yun Sect, in fact, if we join the Supreme Induction Sect, our status will decline and it won’t be any more comfortable than in Yun Sect. So we have never thought about joining the Supreme Induction Sect,” Murong Huan explained.
Lin Aoxue was stunned. Although she thought about it carefully, it was true that if all the people in front of her joined the Supreme Induction Sect, the next generation of the Yun Sect would collapse directly. It was estimated that this had already been decided before they came.
They came purely to get some rewards, and after the game was over, they would go back.
"Is that so?" Lin Aoxue fell into deep thought.
"We must go back. However, Junior Sister Lin, you are destined to become an important disciple of the Supreme Induction Sect. You cannot escape being a direct disciple. And these two fellow Taoists, by the way, I don't know what your names are. I am Murong Huan, the eldest disciple of the Yun Sect." Murong Huan turned his gaze to Yan Yu and Chen Yao again.
When they came out, the first thing they did was to look at the top ten. They found that three of the four people including Ye Liuyun were among the top ten.
"I'm Yan Yu, and I'm sworn sisters with Aoxue and Liuyu."
"My name is Chen Yao, and so am I. I am ranked second, the second sister."
The two of them answered quickly.
Murong Huan nodded.
"So that's how it is. You two are both extremely talented. It's definitely a great fortune that you can get together. Junior Sister Lin, let's go. It's time for us to go back." Murong Huan said with a smile.
Lin Aoxue nodded, and just like that, everyone went back together.
As for the Yun Sect and the Yunxia Sect, they were extremely happy.
After Lin Aoxue won the first place, the Tai Shang Ganying Sect notified Qin Yi immediately.
The general meaning is that Yun Sect has made an indelible contribution by cultivating a talented disciple like Lin Aoxue. After discussion among the top leaders, they agreed to Yun Sect's request and gave Yun Sect another 300 years. In other words, Yun Sect does not have to worry about being forced to engage in mid-level sect fighting due to the lack of strong people.
After Qin Yi got this reply, he was so happy that he couldn't express it in words. Three hundred years was enough time. If three hundred years was not enough for them to produce another god-transforming master, then their Yun Sect would really be doomed.
However, the sect that benefited the most this time was not the Yun Sect, but the Yunxia Sect. You know, the Yunxia Sect originally thought that there was only one Lin Aoxue, but now, three disciples who originally belonged to the Yunxia Sect were favored by the Supreme Induction Sect.
The Supreme Induction Sect has already sent a strong man in the Yuanshen realm to Yun Yun to inform Yun Yun and the others.
Of course, these things have nothing to do with Ye Liuyun anymore. She doesn't particularly care about what benefits the Yunxia Sect has gained, but Lin Aoxue will definitely be more concerned.
Everyone was talking and laughing on the way. Their trip to Nanling ended very successfully. However, not all sects were happy. Some were happy and some were sad.
After returning to their residence, they were all tired and decided to talk about anything tomorrow.
However, as soon as she came back, Lin Aoxue grabbed Ye Liuyun and went back to the room under the puzzled gazes of Chen Yao and Yan Yu.
"Eh? These two, what? It feels like something is not right tonight." A strange smile appeared on Yan Yu's face.
"Don't talk about them. Brother Yu, do you think we two should also want that today?" Chen Yao asked with a smile.
Yan Yu chuckled when he heard this, then picked up Chen Yao by the waist.
"Okay, let's play until we are tired today." Yan Yu said with a smile.
Looking again, in Lin Aoxue's room, one could not hear how much noise was going on inside from outside, but in fact, as soon as the two of them closed the door, they started to confront each other.
Lin Aoxue took the initiative to attack Ye Liuyun and knocked him to the ground.
"You're done for daring to bully me. Tonight I'll let you know how powerful I am. Don't you always look unsatisfied? Don't worry, I'll satisfy you today." Lin Aoxue roughly tore off the headdress on her head and the accessories on her body, and threw aside everything that was in the way.
"I, I'm not afraid of you." Ye Liuyun took the challenge with gritted teeth.
She also took off everything on her body except the copper ring, and the two of them hugged each other and asked for things from each other.
However, although the two seemed aggressive, they gradually became gentle and calm after close contact.
Don’t be fooled by Lin Aoxue’s fierce look, but in fact, it’s just a superficial phenomenon.
Of course, it’s hard to describe what happened in the room next, but it was more intense and more unrestrained than usual, and it lasted, probably, the longest time ever.
In the past, Ye Liuyun would be defeated by Lin Aoxue in a few moves, but this time, she was a little tougher, and for the first time, she defeated Lin Aoxue in this regard.
Of course, it’s hard to say whether it was Lin Aoxue who let her do that or she persisted on her own. Anyway, it was Lin Aoxue who collapsed on her first due to exhaustion.
Around five in the morning of the next day, the two calmed down from their intense fight, and the sky gradually brightened.
In the room, the two of them hugged each other intimately. Although they were both very tired, they did not sleep but chatted instead.
"Little guy, I've told you that it's usually yours, but you can't do it now." Ye Liuyun said weakly.
"Should I be the one giving in to you? I haven't really put in any effort. By the way, what are your plans when you go back?" Lin Aoxue asked with her eyes closed.
Ye Liuyun has never thought about this question.
"I don't know. I've told you about my situation. My current strength has reached its limit. It will take several decades to reach the next stage. By the way, you will definitely become a direct disciple of the Supreme Induction Sect. There are so many long-distance teleportation arrays in the Northern Territory. Why don't you find a way to ask the Supreme Induction Sect to build a teleportation array between the two places? In this way, even if the two places are separated, we can meet at any time." Ye Liuyun suggested.
When Lin Aoxue heard this, she immediately opened her eyes.
"This is a good idea, but I feel it is unlikely," Lin Aoxue said.
"Give it a try. If it doesn't work, there's nothing I can do. The reason why I don't plan to stay in the Supreme Induction Sect is because I'm really not suitable to stay here at the moment. You should understand what I want to say." Ye Liuyun said.
Lin Aoxue naturally understood what Ye Liuyun was referring to. As for the Supreme Induction Sect, it was good.
But for Ye Liuyun, there are only disadvantages and no advantages, and she is planning to find an opportunity to leave Yun Sect.
After all, she was busy refining medicine every day, so it would be most appropriate for her to find a quiet place where no one was around. Besides, Ye Liuyun's immortality would sooner or later be suspected by others.
Maybe she would be fine for a hundred years, but what about five hundred years, or a thousand years? By then, all the other monks would have grown old or died, but she would still be alive and well. She would definitely arouse suspicion.
At present, living in Bixia Valley is quite good, it is quiet and peaceful, but Yunzong is not suitable for staying for a long time.
"Oh! That's true. If you stay in the Supreme Induction Sect, they will definitely find ways to know your secrets. Your secrets cannot be known to the world at all. I can imagine what they would think or what they would do to you if people knew that you are immortal." Lin Aoxue was a little worried.
"Yes, so, I can't stay in the Supreme Induction Sect for the time being. Even if I want to come, it's not now. At least wait until you are doing well in the Supreme Induction Sect and become the leader of the Supreme Induction Sect." Ye Liuyun laughed.
Lin Aoxue nodded, she agreed with what he said. Although Ye Liuyun's elixir was so powerful, in fact, if the other party really wanted to deal with Ye Liuyun, they would not give Ye Liuyun the opportunity to use the elixir.
So either she is invincible in the world, and Ye Liuyun must be there to help her, or Ye Liuyun is invincible in the world and not afraid of any danger, so one of them must rise up first.
Lin Aoxue also knew Ye Liuyun's situation. She needed time, so she had to be Ye Liuyun's protector. She needed more powerful strength.
The two talked a lot, but the same old saying still applies: each has his own path to take, and if the paths are different, one cannot force things too much.
Around noon, the Supreme Induction Sect began to distribute rewards to the trial participants who had passed the first eight levels. They gave them out directly in the form of spiritual coins.
Because there is no need to reward you with treasures or anything like that, as these are not particularly cost-effective. Instead, you can directly reward them with spirit coins and go to Tianyi City or the Disciple Market to buy whatever you want.
It can be bought at the Disciples' Market of the Tai Shang Ganying Sect, so during this period of time, the business of the shops in Tianyi City and the Disciples' Market has suddenly become booming.
The reward is quite a lot. After passing the first level, you will be rewarded with 100 million spirit coins. And so on, after reaching the eighth level, you will be rewarded with million spirit coins. For most cultivators, let alone million, even million is already very good.
Of course, for the monks from those big sects, maybe, it’s just like that, they may not necessarily look down on it.
The rewards for monks who pass the eighth level of Tianjiao Tower are different from those for others. From here on, rewards are given according to rankings. The specific rewards will be announced after the Dao Discussion Conference is over.
Before leaving, the cultivators from the Southern Region would definitely spend all of the spirit coins, as these spirit coins are not circulated in the Southern Region.
Just like that, three days later, the conference on Taoism officially began at the Enlightenment Platform of the Tai Shang Ganying Sect.
All the high-ranking members of the Tai Shang Ganying Sect were present to watch the event in person. The Enlightenment Platform was located at the top of the Tian Dao Peak of the Tai Shang Ganying Sect.
This enlightenment platform is extraordinary. It is built with extremely expensive materials and complex formations and restrictions, with a sky-high monument in the center.
It is said that this item is an ancient treasure that can communicate between heaven and earth. The trial-taker immerses his mind in the inscription, and different Taoist visions will appear according to the Tao that he practices.
The greater the vision, the higher the person's understanding and the higher his future achievements will be.
This level does not require everyone to participate. The one thousand people in the Tianjiao Tower can voluntarily go on stage, or they can choose to give up.
There is no ranking for this level, and it is only valuable to trial-takers who want to join the Supreme Induction Sect.
