Chapter 114: Moon-passing Sword Body
These people were tall, wearing animal skins, with colorful feathers of unknown colors on their heads, and they were riding not ordinary horses, but strange horses with the bloodline of monsters.

The horse's body was covered with tiger stripes, and the sound of its roar was like the howling of a tiger.

"These are the barbarians from the deep mountains. Why are they here?"

Seeing this, Ye Yang secretly guessed in his heart.

Deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains of Yalongling, there are many tribes, including large clans and naturally small tribes.

These people obviously came from a small tribe.

These barbarians often live in jungles and mountains, have dark skin and are good at hunting.

The powerful ones will worship the exotic beasts of heaven and earth as the spirits of their tribe.

For example, the Barbarian Dragon Tribe worshipped the spirit of the Three-Headed Sky-Swallowing Python. However, after the death of the Three-Headed Sky-Swallowing Python, the demon pill that formed its body was taken away by Wu Ma Han.

That’s why it intersects with Feitianmen.

"Could it be that these people also want to join Feitian Sect?"

Ye Yang watched in amazement.

Gu Xuan's face was also trembling. Although Feitian Sect has always advocated education for all, the barbarians are used to living in the mountains and have always had violent tempers, making it difficult to communicate with them.

The leader was a barbarian, tall and strong, who seemed full of the power of a wild beast.

He placed a gorgeous tiger skin in his hand in front of Gu Xuan and kowtowed continuously.

"My clan... the clan spirit is dead, so I offer its skin to you, and beg you to allow me to cultivate immortality and escape the sufferings of this world."

When Gu Xuan heard this, he felt that this man spoke politely and did not seem like a barbarian in the mountains.

He took another look at the animal skin. It looked like a horse but not a horse, a tiger but not a tiger. It had a huge body and a bright glow, as if it had a trace of the blood of the legendary Lu Shu.

The deer is as strong as a horse but with a white head, and has patterns like a tiger with a red tail. Wearing its fur can bring good fortune to your descendants, and bring harmony and prosperity.

It is quite relevant to today's recruitment of disciples.

After offering the skin of the tribal spirit, the man asked the tribesmen behind him to take off piles of animal skins from their horses.

Among them are low-level monsters and ordinary wild beasts.

The winter is bitterly cold, and these animal skins are indispensable for the tribe to survive the winter. At this moment, the other party is offering all the animal skins to Feitianmen, which shows their sincerity.

Gu Xuan frowned and thought for a while. These people seemed to be quite proficient in animal husbandry and were indispensable talents for Feitianmen.

"My Feitian Sect has always advocated teaching without discrimination. Since you are here, you can participate in the disciple trial. However, you must abide by the sect's rules and regulations in the future. If you violate them, you will not be forgiven easily."

"As for these gifts, you may take them with you; they are of no use to us."

The deer skin that Gu Xuan accepted was considered a good omen.

The other skins were mostly from low-level monsters or wild beasts, which were of little use, so they were returned and given to their tribes to overwinter.

The leader knelt on the ground and nodded quickly.

Afterwards, about twenty strong and dark-skinned young men were brought out by him and mixed into the crowd.

"The trial begins now. Anyone who reaches the top within three hours will pass the first level."

Gu Xuan pointed to Feitianmen, a big mountain opposite the gate.

The mountain had steep peaks, no grass growing on it, and was covered in white rocks. In the middle, there was an illusion array covering it.

For these young people who have never been exposed to spiritual practice.

If one can reach the summit within three hours, his physical fitness and perseverance must be extraordinary.

Only then can we continue the practice.

……

On the top of the mountain, there are old tangles, white rocks are exposed, and no grass grows.

It has been raining today, making the steep mountain even more slippery and difficult to walk on.

Xiang Ying is tall, and next to him is Xiang Jie. The two are among the disciples specially selected by the Xiang family.

Although the Xiang family was impoverished, they were still members of the family after all. Although they had not practiced cultivation, they had been training since childhood and their physical fitness was better than others, so they were far ahead all the way.

The two did not dare to delay and climbed halfway up the mountain. However, their physical functions still could not keep up, so they took a gulp of water from their water bags and quickly climbed towards the top of the mountain.

This time, there are a total of five people from the Xiang family participating in the Feitianmen assessment.

The remaining dozen or so people were sent to the Blood Demon Sect. They knew that those who came to participate in the Feitian Sect's disciple assessment were all average people in the Xiang family.

The truly outstanding ones had already been sent to the Blood Demon Sect, so they were even more unwilling to admit defeat, and therefore they climbed up extremely seriously.

……

Yu Qingshan was also quite fast. After all, his father was a high-level guardian of the fifth level of martial arts. Especially since he came from Feitian Sect, he was well aware of many key points of the disciple assessment.

Therefore, he had already prepared special daggers and other equipment.

The dagger cut through iron like mud, and penetrated into the cracks in the rocks, climbing up as fast as a nimble ape.

Soon, he left everyone behind.

He has the potential to take first place.

If I can’t be first, I can be third or fourth, but I definitely can’t be second!”

……

At this moment, the biggest crisis lay with that group of barbarian teenagers.

This group of people are dark-skinned, carrying bows and arrows on their backs, and are agile, like cheetahs.

Although they were dispersed by the illusion array, they formed a group of three or five and climbed hard towards the top of the mountain.

There have been heavy rains in Yalongling for three years, and wild beasts are rampant. Some time ago, their clan spirit unfortunately died in a fight.

If nothing changes, the clan will be wiped out.

"Master, we seem to be lost."

"I know, this must be the illusion array that my father mentioned that is affecting us. If we go out in different directions, we will definitely be able to find the intersection."

Surrounded by the crowd was a young man with dark blue wolf totems tattooed all over his face. The wolf shadows were so ferocious and his true appearance could not be seen.

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something. He drew the bow behind him and an arrow shot out as fast as lightning and hit the crevice in the rock.

A huge python suddenly appeared in the crack of the rock.

The body is slender and the scales reflect cold light.

These mountains are most likely to breed various poisonous insects and ferocious beasts.

Fortunately, these young men were all from barbarian tribes and were used to seeing wild beasts. They quickly formed a formation, gathered together, bent their bows and drew their arrows, and quickly killed the giant python. …

On the top of the mountain, yellow leaves are falling and the grass is withered.

There is only a huge tung tree growing on the crevice of the rock in the center of the mountain top. It is late autumn and the leaves are deep red, like burning flames.

A group of high-ranking martial artists stood on the top of the mountain, waiting quietly to see which disciple would come out on top.

Ye Yang did the same, waiting quietly.

After a while, a thin boy climbed up from a cliff and Ye Yang took a look at him.

The young man was black, wearing animal skins, with a wolf totem tattoo on his face. He was a member of the barbarian tribe.

Barbarians often fight with wild beasts in the mountains and swamps.

He has excellent physical fitness, so it was not surprising to Ye Yang that he could get first place.

After a while, another person in a green shirt and holding a matte dagger also climbed up from the bottom of the mountain. When he saw the senior leaders, he immediately clasped his fists.

"Disciple Yu Qingshan, I pay my respects to the Sect Master and all the elders."

This sentence is subtle in meaning and considerate in courtesy.

Not only did he greet the sect's higher-ups, he also told them his name and origin, which made them more familiar to him.

At first glance, you can tell that he has inherited a good family education.

Ye Yang was also not surprised when he saw Yu Qingshan coming up.

Yu Qingshan took a look at Shou Kun, the young barbarian leader who had been waiting on the top of the mountain, and his heart suddenly turned cold.

He can be first, third or fourth, but he hates second the most in his life.

But I never thought that I would not be able to achieve my wish in the end...

After three hours, out of more than a thousand disciples, only less than two hundred were able to climb up successfully.

Gu Xuan waved his hand, and the flying silver-spotted ray hovering above the top of the mountain immediately descended.

Deacons and disciples had already taken hundreds of disciples and sat on the flying rays, flying towards the mountain gate.

The next step is to check one's roots and background.

Only those who successfully pass the examination of Feitianmen can enter Feitianmen to practice. Otherwise, no matter how good your talent is, it will be in vain.

……

What happened next had nothing to do with Ye Yang.

He returned to the room early and sat at the table, with piles of jade slips in front of him.

Ye Yang frowned and was looking for something.

These things are the information about Wangyue Mountain that he asked someone to bring to him recently.

Ever since Zhang Li reminded him last time, Ye Yang has become extremely concerned about the affairs of Wangyue Mountain.

The general outline of the inherited spiritual secrets of the Thirteen Swords of Time is related to his future path of cultivation and cannot be ignored.

As the saying goes, preventing someone from achieving enlightenment is like killing his parents.

He has always attached great importance to his own cultivation.

After putting the jade slip down, Ye Yang couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The situation in Wangyue Mountain is becoming more and more complicated now. In addition to the four local forces of Feitian Sect, Wudu Sect, Taiyi Qing Sect, and Fengyu Tower who are eyeing it covetously.

Countless foreign clans also appeared.

Even the Thirteen Great Bandits of the North Sea, who were far away in the northern border, had their own disciples come.

A few days ago, Xuanwu Zhenren, a well-known senior in the world of independent cultivators, had a fierce fight with the Blood Demon Sect's great elder, Fenghuo Lao Ren.

Afterwards, the Blood Demon Sect used two to fight one. The second elder, Master Pengxue, and the first elder, Master Fenghuo, besieged Master Xuanwu together and severely injured him.

But no one would have thought that the battle between the two powerful men in the semi-realm could actually blast open half of Wangyue Mountain.

The reason why they are called two semi-real people is because Master Pengxue has not yet broken through the last barrier of the real person realm, but he has refined Peng's blood and practiced a different kind of martial arts, and his strength is extremely powerful.

After Wangyue Mountain was blasted open, an ancient site was revealed inside the cliff.

There are monsters roaming around, ghost soldiers walking, and graves everywhere.

It is speculated that this is the cave of the ancient legendary demon king Changsheng Lao.

The situation on Wangyue Mountain is now tense, with foreign forces still pouring in and demons rampant.

Even from the demon country on earth, there were demon pioneers who arrived at the Moon Watching Mountain.

"There is no rush for this matter. Perhaps there will be more unexpected events next."

Ye Yang was thinking carefully about how to break the impasse. Now the water in Wangyue Mountain had been completely muddied by someone.

Once the situation becomes chaotic, great turmoil will ensue.

Feitianmen and other four sects will also not miss this opportunity at their doorstep.

So just wait quietly.

……

It was a sunny day with clear blue skies.

Ye Yang pushed open the door and saw a red sun rising slowly among thousands of mountains and valleys, wild geese flying in the morning glow, and the autumn water and long smoke were the same color.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but smile.

The heavy rains that had lasted for several years in Yalongling finally came to an end today.

In the past three years, heavy rains and floods have wreaked havoc and the people have been suffering terribly, unable to make a living.

Three years of disaster had passed, and when everyone saw the red golden sun, they couldn't help but feel excited and happy.

Three days ago, Feitian Sect had already recruited all of its disciples.

Originally, Feitianmen only planned to recruit one hundred disciples, but this time there were a large number of participants, and all of them were good.

After discussion within the sect, fifty more places for disciples were added.

It is worth mentioning that among these more than one thousand disciples, Feitian Sect actually found a girl with the Tongyue Sword Body. This girl was collected by the sect’s elders when they were traveling outside, and she is quite rare.

The Tongyue Sword Body is named after the sword. It is extremely yin and cold, and is good at female cultivation. Although it is far inferior to the Eye of Blood and Tears, it can also be regarded as a good spiritual body.

For this reason, Fengyu Tower had discussed with Feitian Gate several times, hoping that the disciple would transfer to Fengyu Tower, but was rejected by Gu Xuan every time.
