Along the way, we saw undulating mountains shrouded in clouds and mist, with palace-like buildings scattered in an orderly manner among them. Some were magnificent, while others were exquisite and elegant, all exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

The disciples were dressed in uniform, moving back and forth, each busy with their own spiritual practice, in an orderly manner, fully displaying the style of a great sect.

The manager first brought them to the arranged cave for cultivation. The cave was located halfway up a mountain where spiritual energy gathered. It was surrounded by green trees and the environment was quiet.

Walking into the cave, one finds that it is fully equipped. The training room is spacious and bright, and the spiritual energy flows slowly like materialized mist.

Jiang Qiong and others were filled with joy and looked forward to their future practice.

The days in Xuanyue Sect were not easy at first. Every morning, before dawn, they had to follow the instructors arranged by the sect to do morning exercises, practice basic skills, and hone their spiritual power.

The instructor's requirements are very strict. Every move must be precise and any mistake will be pointed out and corrected.

Jiang Qiong relied on his tenacious willpower and gritted his teeth to persevere, striving for perfection in every circulation of his spiritual power and every performance of his moves.

Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue were not to be outdone. They competed with each other and made progress together.

In addition to practicing, the three of them also need to take time to study the various martial arts secrets provided by Xuan Yue Sect.

These secret books are profound and difficult to understand, and contain extremely high wisdom of spiritual practice.

In order to comprehend one of the articles, Jiang Qiong often forgot to eat and sleep, pondered over it repeatedly, and combined it with his unique understanding of spiritual power during his cooking practice.
Gradually find a practice path that suits you.

Lang Nana used her quick thinking to draw inspiration from the secret books, innovated the techniques of spiritual power circulation, and steadily improved her cultivation.

Nan Fengxue focused on improving the purity of his spiritual power. He practiced hard day and night, and his spiritual power became more condensed and powerful.

As time went by, the three of them gradually adapted to the Xuan Yue Sect's high-intensity practice rhythm, and their cultivation began to advance by leaps and bounds.

Jiang Qiong's cooking skills were even more enhanced after incorporating Xuan Yue Sect's unique spiritual plants and materials. The dishes he often cooked were not only delicious, but also aided in spiritual practice, earning the sect's disciples endless praise.

He cooked a dish called "Spiritual Energy Gathering Soup" which used a variety of rare spiritual materials as raw materials. After being carefully cooked, the soup contained rich spiritual energy. After drinking it, it could help disciples quickly absorb spiritual energy and consolidate their cultivation. It quickly became a highly sought-after delicacy in Xuanyue Sect.

With the support of Xuanyue Sect, Jufulou's business is booming. When Xuanyue Sect disciples return from their training, they always choose Jufulou as their first choice to rest, share food and exchange experiences with their fellow disciples.

Although Jiang Qiong and others were in Xuanyue Sect, they were always paying attention to the development of Jufulou. They often communicated with the remaining waiters through communication talismans to adjust the dishes, improve the services, and ensure that Jufulou's reputation would not fall.

In an internal competition held by Xuan Yue Sect, Jiang Qiong, Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue represented their team to compete.

On the field, Jiang Qiong's spiritual power surged, and she displayed her unique cooking skills and spiritual power fusion skills, with unpredictable moves and amazing power; Lang Nana was agile and light, relying on clever spiritual power operation skills to shuttle between opponents and launch unexpected attacks;
Nan Fengxue, backed by his powerful spiritual power, is able to stand alone against ten thousand enemies and protect his teammates.

The three of them cooperated well, overcame all obstacles along the way, and finally achieved excellent results, winning honor for the team and becoming famous in Xuanyue Sect.

Since then, Jiang Qiong and others have gained a firm foothold in Xuanyue Sect. While they practice hard and pursue a higher realm, they also use the resources of Xuanyue Sect to run Jufulou prosperously.

Within two days, a blockbuster news came from the sect: the trial was about to begin, and the destination was the extremely dangerous Monster Mountain. The disciples were required to form teams to go and kill the monsters in order to test the results of their practice and accumulate practical experience.

Upon hearing the news, Jiang Qiong, Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue signed up without hesitation. They knew very well that such an opportunity was crucial to improving their strength.

When everyone was flying on their swords and approaching the Monster Mountain, a murderous aura hit them in the face.

Looking around, one could see the towering Monster Mountain with jagged rocks. A layer of faint blood mist permeated the mountain, making it look particularly eerie under the refraction of sunlight.

The surface of the mountain is covered with gullies, as if it had been scratched by the sharp claws of an ancient beast. From time to time, bursts of roars of monsters can be heard from the deep valleys, which is creepy.

The vegetation on the mountain is sparse, mostly twisted and deformed thorns and dark black shrubs. Occasionally, a few towering ancient trees can be seen, but their branches are also covered with traces of being gnawed by monsters, and the leaves are withered and crumbling.

After Jiang Qiong, Lang Nana and Nan Fengxue landed, they stepped into the dangerous place cautiously.

They walked slowly forward in a triangle, back to back, looking around vigilantly, taking every step very lightly for fear of alerting any hidden monsters.

Lang Nana held a spiritual whip tightly in her hand. The whip was shining with a faint blue light, and spiritual power was flowing slowly through it. Her smart eyes kept observing the surrounding movements from time to time, not missing any slightest movement.
Nan Fengxue clenched her fists, and powerful spiritual power gathered on her body surface. There was a faint glow flowing, like a solid shield. Her stern face was full of concentration, and she was responsible for covering the rear to prevent a surprise attack from behind.
Jiang Qiong held a specially made spiritual sword in his hand. The blade shone coldly, and the spiritual crystal inlaid in the handle emitted a soft light, which echoed with the spiritual power in his body. Relying on his keen perception, he searched for the traces of the monster in front of him.

When we reached a valley, the bloody smell in the air became thicker.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the bushes next to them. The three of them were instantly alert, stopped and held their breath.

I saw a monster resembling a cheetah suddenly jump out. Its fur was dark red and covered with strange black lines. Its eyes emitted a bloodthirsty red light, its fangs were exposed, and saliva was dripping, corroding the soil and rocks on the ground.

Jiang Qiong reacted quickly and shouted, "Do it!" Then the spiritual power surged and poured into the spiritual sword, and the blade instantly shone brightly.

His figure flashed, and he slashed at the monster with a sharp blade. This blade contained the skill of finely controlling spiritual power when he cooked. It looked simple, but in fact it was accurately aimed at the monster's neck.

The monster roared and dodged sideways with extreme agility. It then swung its sharp claws and pounced towards Jiang Qiong with a fishy wind.

Upon seeing this, Lang Nana glared with her beautiful eyes, and the magic whip in her hand drew an arc in the air like a spirit snake coming out of a cave. The tip of the whip accurately wrapped around one of the monster's front paws, and she pulled hard, trying to restrict its movement.

The spiritual power on the whip rushed out like electric current, stimulating the monster to roar in pain.

Nan Fengxue took advantage of this opportunity, strode forward, gathered his powerful spiritual power in his fists, and blasted out violently, bringing up a strong gust of wind and heading straight for the monster's face.

The monster felt threatened and struggled to break free from the whip. It leaped backwards to avoid the powerful attack, and after landing, it swept its long tail across, hitting the three people.

Seeing this, Jiang Qiong was not in a hurry. He held the spiritual sword in front of him and circulated his spiritual power to form a spiritual shield. Together with Nan Fengxue, he resisted the sweeping force. Lang Nana took the opportunity to go around the back of the monster, waving her spiritual whip in the air, weaving a spiritual net to try to trap the monster.

But this monster was extremely cunning. It suddenly spit out a ball of black fire with a pungent smell, which instantly burned the spiritual power network to ashes.

Jiang Qiong's eyes narrowed, knowing full well that he could not allow the monster to be so rampant. He took a deep breath, mobilized the spiritual power in his body, and performed a unique spiritual technique - "Spiritual Rhythm and Phantom Light Step".

In an instant, his figure became illusory, as if his feet were stepping on light and shadow. He shuttled around the monster at an extremely fast speed, and the magic knife in his hand kept swinging. Each knife was accompanied by a dazzling light of spiritual power, which made the monster overwhelmed for a moment. Several shallow wounds appeared on its body, and dark green blood oozed out.

The monster felt the pain and became more violent. It jumped high, spiritual power surged throughout its body, its fur seemed to be burning, a dark red light shone brightly, and it opened its bloody mouth and bit Jiang Qiong fiercely.

Nan Fengxue saw this and shouted, "Don't even think about hurting my teammates!"

She took out her own magic weapon - an ancient spiritual power tower. The tower instantly grew larger, suspended in the air, and cast down a golden light curtain, protecting Jiang Qiong inside.

The monster bit the light curtain and was bounced back, letting out a painful whine.

Lang Nana seized the opportunity and shook the spiritual whip in her hand. The whip instantly split into several phantoms, which lashed towards the monster from all directions. Each phantom contained a powerful spiritual power impact.

This was an innovative spiritual technique she had learned from the secret book - "Spirit Shadow Whip Dance". For a moment, whip shadows were everywhere in the valley, whipping the monsters with crackling sounds, and the monsters' fur was beaten into a bloody mess.

With the close cooperation of the three people, the cheetah monster was gradually defeated, its movements became slower and slower, the wounds on its body continued to increase, and the blood dyed the surrounding land red.

Finally, it collapsed with a loud bang, without a breath left.

The three of them just breathed a sigh of relief, and before they could catch their breath, they heard even more fierce roars of monsters not far away, one after another, as if a group of monsters were coming. They looked at each other, their eyes full of determination, and quickly adjusted their state to prepare for a greater challenge.

As we continued to go deeper into Monster Mountain, the surrounding scenes became more and more tragic.

The remains of monsters and broken magical tools can be seen everywhere on the ground. The blood has dried on the soil and rocks, presenting a dark red patch.

The sky was shrouded in blood mist and became increasingly darker, with hardly a ray of light visible, making it so depressing that it was hard to breathe.

Not long after walking, a huge pangolin-like monster broke out of the ground. Its body was covered with a thick layer of ochre-colored scales, and each scale was shining with the light of earth-based spiritual power and was as hard as a rock.

Its limbs are strong and powerful, and its claws are like sharp hooks that can easily tear through soil and rocks.

Jiang Qiong's eyes were stern, and he held the spiritual sword with both hands. The spiritual power poured into it crazily, and the spiritual sword hummed. He shouted, "Look at how I skin and bone you today!"

After saying that, he shot out like an arrow, rushing towards the pangolin monster with an indomitable momentum.

This time, he used a new set of spiritual sword techniques - "Spiritual Chef Bone-Breaking Technique". Every time he swung the sword, it was accompanied by a powerful spiritual shock wave, trying to find the gaps in the pangolin's scales and deliver a fatal blow.

The pangolin monster felt threatened, so it retracted its head and curled up its entire body into a ball, like an indestructible fortress, allowing Jiang Qiong's spiritual knife to chop at its body, making only clinking sounds but not causing any damage at all.

Seeing this, Lang Nana's beautiful eyes flickered and an idea came to her mind. She wrapped the spirit whip around her waist, quickly formed seals with her hands, and muttered something. After a moment, a green wind-based spirit technique - "Spiritual Wind Piercing" was performed.

I saw a sharp wind blade whistling towards the pangolin monster. When the wind blade approached the monster, it suddenly split into countless tiny wind needles and forced its way in through the gaps between the scales.

The pangolin monster felt pain, stretched its body suddenly, raised its front paws, and slapped towards Lang Nana.

Nan Fengxue arrived in time. She recalled the small spiritual power tower, placed it above her head, and used all her strength to activate the spiritual power. The light curtain cast by the small tower became thicker, like a golden dome, which steadily blocked the attack of the pangolin monster.

At the same time, she clenched her fists, gathered her spiritual power, and punched the monster's abdomen several times. Each punch was accompanied by a powerful explosion of spiritual power, trying to jar the monster's internal organs.

Jiang Qiong took advantage of the monster's distraction, his eyes flashed with a gleam of light, he put away the spiritual knife, quickly formed seals with his hands, and circulated the spiritual power in his body to the extreme, shouting: "Spiritual rhythm gathers energy to explode!"

I saw a ball of dazzling spiritual power gathered in his palm. The spiritual power in the ball was compressed madly, and the surrounding air was vibrating.

Then, he threw the spirit ball towards the pangolin monster. The spirit ball exploded the moment it touched the monster, making a deafening sound.

The powerful impact knocked the pangolin monster to the ground. Several scales on its abdomen were blown off, revealing some flesh and blood.

The three of them seized this rare fighting opportunity and quickly surrounded it. Lang Nana swung her spirit whip, continuously whipping the monster's wounds to prevent it from curling up again;

Nan Fengxue's fists rained down like raindrops, and each punch hit the monster's vital parts with the determination to kill.
Jiang Qiong held the spiritual sword in his hand, and when the time was right, he chopped fiercely at the exposed neck of the monster. The spiritual sword cut into the monster's neck without any hindrance, and dark green blood gushed out.

After a fierce life-and-death fight, the pangolin monster finally fell to the ground with a bang, completely dead.

The three men collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath. Their clothes were already torn and bloodstained, but their eyes were filled with joy and pride of victory.

However, the trial in Monster Mountain is far from over, and dangers are still lurking everywhere.

After a short rest, they forced themselves to explore deeper into the mountains and forests, ready to face the next unknown challenge.

As we walked forward a short while, the trees around us became increasingly dense, with branches and leaves intertwined, almost blocking out the sky and making the forest dark and gloomy.

A foul smell filled the air, making people feel sick.

Suddenly, a low roar came from above their heads. The three of them were startled and looked up, only to see a huge flying monster hovering in the sky. (End of this chapter)
