Chapter 3, Where the Brute Came From

What the hell? Where did this reckless person come from? Are they not afraid of death?

The same is true in the cultivation world; unless there is a genuine conflict of interest, everyone coexists peacefully.

As for who can access the platform, it certainly depends on one's capabilities

Is there someone who wishes to challenge the authority of a powerful disciple? It has been a long time since I encountered such a stubborn individual.

Lu Yi used to listen to lectures on the hillside

People live on a mountain peak, most of whom have met each other before, and now when they encounter one another, they simply nod and smile at each other

Moreover, the smooth operation of spiritual energy will also enable Lu Yi to use his techniques more swiftly, resulting in an enhancement of his combat power

Thus, Lu Yi assigned himself the task of practicing the White Cloud Qi Induction Technique ten times, continuing his cultivation—after all, cultivation was necessary, and he felt that not taking on a task would leave him at a loss.

I am not afraid of being hit; I am willing to call this junior brother Iron-Headed Boy

Although Lu Yi now possesses a golden finger and his cultivation speed has increased significantly, he will not become arrogant or feel invincible. He is still just an ordinary novice cultivator in the Qi Refining stage, and there is still my master in our trio. Moreover, the opponent is a Golden Core expert

The closer Lu Yiyue got to Baiyang Peak, the more outer sect disciples he saw

Understood! Lu Yi replied with a smile and ran out of the small courtyard

Because even those at the seventh level of Qi training have stopped, yet Lu Yi has not ceased his actions

... ...

Lu Yi did not stop, but continued to ascend

It has begun

That is already a position close to the mountain peak, a place where only particularly powerful disciples at the seventh or even eighth level of Qi Refinement can stand

After a moment, Lu Yi could clearly feel that he had gained a deeper understanding of the Baiyun Qi technique. He attempted to practice the technique, and to his delight, the flow of spiritual energy was much smoother than before. The time taken to complete a full cycle was reduced by nearly one-third, and the efficiency of spiritual energy absorption had also improved.

The outer gate is located at the outermost side of the sect, surrounded by hundreds of towering peaks, among which is the Baiyang Peak where the elders of the outer gate give their lectures

Thus, time passes

The space here is so limited, how can this iron-headed child dare to go up there

Having hastily finished breakfast, Lu Yi spoke up: "Father and Mother, I am going to Baiyang Peak"

Along the way, Lu Yi also saw other outer disciples, some alone, while others were moving in pairs or groups of three with friends

The disciples at the Qi Refining level above the seventh layer frowned upon seeing Lu Yi. It was already crowded above, and now there was a Qi Refining level six individual wanting to join them? Isn't that a bit excessive?

In the blink of an eye, two weeks have passed, and we have reached the beginning of the month

The mountaintop platform allows for clearer listening, and after the elder concludes the lecture, he will randomly address the cultivation doubts of the disciples, referring specifically to the disciples on the mountaintop platform

Who does not want to sharpen their wits to get ahead?

Lu Yi took a bite out of half a meat bun and nodded, saying, "I understand"

As they approached Baiyang Peak, the atmosphere among all the outer disciples became serious

It can be said that the enhancement of merely practicing Qigong has brought significant improvements to Lu Yi in various aspects

Lu Yi paid no attention to their gazes, smiling gently as he continued to move forward

One's cultivation is weak; what benefits does targeting others bring to your own training? Absolutely none, right? It only wastes your own time for cultivation

Moreover, what if they gain some opportunity and take off from the spot? At that time, if they seek revenge on you, wouldn't you be left in a dire situation?

As they climbed higher, the disciples at the first and second levels of Qi training were the first to stop. It was not that they did not want to go up, but rather that they did not dare to. There were only so many positions available, and occupying the spots of those disciples with greater cultivation would lead to being beaten.

There are numerous discussions among the crowd

There are over one hundred thousand outer disciples, and around one hundred thousand of them come to Baiyang Peak at the beginning of each month. From above, they resemble a swarm of ants migrating

When reaching halfway up the mountain, there were significantly fewer people, and the disciples at the fifth level of Qi training also stopped.

Of course, Lu Yi does not have particularly bad relationships with others, after all, his parents are stewards, which gives him a certain level of respect in the outer sect, and everyone is generally easy to talk to

Lu Yi believes that regardless of what one does, one must not be arrogant or conceited, otherwise, it is oneself who will inevitably be hurt

Lu Yi assigns tasks to himself every day: in the morning, he practices the Baiyun Sword Technique; in the afternoon, he practices the Baiyun Step Technique; and in the evening, he practices the Baiyun Qi Guiding Method

Lu Yi believes that there is a saying that goes well: the world of rivers and lakes is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social etiquette

Lu Yi is usually busy with his cultivation and does not socialize much, having no particularly close friends. He himself does not mind this. In the world of immortality, while socializing is important, strength is even more crucial. He is currently in a period of rising strength and should focus on his cultivation; otherwise, when he grows older, it will be too late for regrets

Further up, that is the position of disciples at the seventh level of Qi training and above

If one does not strive in youth, one will only regret in old age

Generally, disciples possess a strong sense of self-awareness

With the completion of the task, the levels of his three types of cultivation techniques are rapidly increasing

"Let's make a bet, how long do you think this guy will last?"

After all, it is unnecessary

Lu Gaoyang thought of something, looked at Lu Yi, and said: "Yi'er, today is the day of the elder's lecture, you must not forget the time"

Lu Yi's own cultivation talent is considered to be at the upper echelon within the outer sect, and on most occasions, people tend to regard him with a certain level of esteem, rarely does anyone inexplicably provoke him

This time, he intends to go to the platform to see what the scenery is like and how it differs from that at the halfway point

Not far along, most of the disciples at the sixth level of Qi Refinement also came to a stop

Lu Yi glanced at the time; there was still plenty of time before class began, so he was not in a hurry and jogged slowly along the mountain path towards Baiyang Peak

The place where Baiyang Peak delivers teachings is located at the summit. Although the platform at the summit is not small, it can only accommodate over a thousand disciples.

It is important to understand that even the outer sect elders possess the cultivation level of Golden Core, and any casual cultivation experience is immensely beneficial for outer sect disciples who are merely at the Qi Refinement stage

Lu Yi walked towards the summit of Baiyang Peak with a smile on his face

At the beginning of each month, unless there are other matters to attend to, the outer disciples will attend classes, and Lu Yi is no exception

It is not only someone like Lu Yi, who possesses a relatively high level of cultivation, but even disciples with weaker cultivation and talent are generally overlooked by most. Very few fools would deliberately target them.

Do not say it is impossible; the ruins of various ancient sects and the legacies of powerful cultivators in the Tianming Continent are abundant. There are also numerous rare materials and treasures that may exist. What if someone truly obtains an extraordinary opportunity?

Lu Yi was originally expected to break through to the seventh layer of Qi training in approximately seven to eight months, but now... perhaps it will only take five to six months to achieve the breakthrough

In the morning, Lu Yi, Lu Gaoyang, and Wang Siqi were having breakfast together

Wang Siqi saw Lu Yi rush out in a hurry and quickly said: "Be careful, don't run too fast"

The expressions of those disciples who had reached the seventh layer of Qi training gradually became peculiar

At that moment, a tall outer sect disciple stood in front of Lu Yi and said with a smile, "Junior brother, it seems you have taken the wrong position. Why not step down yourself?"

Overall, the efficiency of cultivation is likely to improve by nearly 50 percent

So what about the others? Of course, they can stand wherever possible, whether it be under the platform, on the mountain road, or halfway up the mountain.

This improvement is truly significant

The eyes of many outer disciples lit up, and they began to enjoy the spectacle with great delight.

The outer disciples nearby were momentarily taken aback, and then they revealed expressions of anticipation as if they were watching a spectacle

Soon, the disciples at the third and fourth levels of Qi training also came to a halt

The Baiyun Sect is located in the Baiyun Mountain Range, covering an area of several hundred square kilometers, with high mountains throughout the sect.

There are prominent figures in the field offering free lectures on golden elixirs; if one does not take the opportunity to attend, can they still be considered a person?

The mountain where Lu Yi resides is called Bai Ling Peak, which is not too far from Bai Yang Peak, separated by only six mountain peaks

Those with strong capabilities will advance, while those with weaker capabilities will unfortunately be left behind

At the beginning of the month, the Outer Sect Elder Council held classes at Baiyang Peak, teaching some fundamental cultivation principles and providing guidance to the outer sect disciples on difficulties encountered in their practice
