The Ji Family's Pride

Chapter 158: One Year Expiration

Next to a waterfall, in a water and fire lotus several dozen feet in size, a young man in a white robe was sitting cross-legged.

The young man was wrapped in a huge lotus of water and fire. The lotus was slowly rotating, and wisps of breeze from the surrounding heaven and earth were flowing slowly with it.

Wisps of breeze gathered together and whistled past, blowing the huge lotus to rotate continuously...

a long time.

The breeze dissipated, and the water and fire lotus gradually turned into nothingness.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother." Yu Wei had been watching from the side, smiling, "Junior Brother, not only have you mastered the Way of Rain and Fire, but you have also mastered the Way of the Wind. Water, fire and wind have been integrated into your swordsmanship... Your strength will surely increase greatly!"

"Yeah." Ji Ning nodded slightly, his face full of joy. With stronger strength, he would be more confident. He would also have a greater chance of getting a place in the Immortal Fate Conference.

Although there were many evildoers at this Immortal Fate Conference, he was confident that he was not afraid of any opponent. He had a strong soul, was a sword immortal, had the magical power of picking stars, and had two magical powers of escape for fighting, so he naturally had the confidence to be proud.

"Sister, my level of enlightenment has greatly improved. The Red Bright Nine Heavens Diagram has already reached the eleventh level, and now I have also cultivated it to the twelfth level... Hmm?" Ji Ning said, and was stunned for a moment, "Someone is coming!"

“It seems…” Yu Wei’s expression also changed, and she said solemnly, “The person who came is extremely powerful… It seems…”

"It's Xia Mang Zishan!" Ji Ning's spiritual sense immediately spread out, and when he detected the person coming, he was immediately shocked.

"Xia Mang Zishan?" Yu Wei was stunned. She had naturally heard of Xia Mang Zishan, the number one prodigy in Tianbao Mountain, who was born in the Great Xia royal family. She immediately said solemnly, "This Xia Mang Zishan is not easy to mess with. Junior brother, let's get out of the way."

"It seems... there's no way to avoid it!" Ji Ning stared at the purple-clothed young man who was approaching at a very fast speed, "There are a few others around who are following him!"

Ji Ning looked at Yu Wei and said solemnly, "Sister, don't fight hard! If you see the situation is not good, just leave first. I have practiced the Chi Ming Jiu Tian Tu, so you are more capable of close combat and survival, so you are not afraid."

Yu Wei also nodded. She knew that there was only Ji Ning, so she didn't have to take her into consideration. Instead, she could let go and fight to her heart's content.

Wow!
A purple lightning whizzed and suddenly appeared in front of Ji Ning and the others.

"Master Bei Ming, Ji Ning?" Xia Mang Zishan's gaze fell on Yu Wei and lingered for a moment, then turned to look at Ji Ning, "I heard that you and Master Qing Ping are from the same clan? You are also a master of swordsmanship... Let's fight!"

"Huh?" Ji Ning was startled, and a Bei Ming sword suddenly appeared in each of his hands. He looked at Xia Mang Zishan, "Just a fight?"

"Yes. My strength is not as good as that of Master Qing Ping, so I naturally need to find opportunities to improve my strength. In this painting of the bright moon and mountains and waters, only fighting can help me grow the most..."

"So you picked me?" Ji Ning's heart moved, and water and fire lotuses blossomed around him. The water and fire lotuses circled around him, and the lotus leaves swayed in the wind and kept spinning.

Ji Ning's eyes flashed with a fierce fighting spirit, and he immediately said, "Senior Sister, be careful!"

He immediately looked at Xia Mang Zishan, "Come on then! I also want to experience the strength of the number one in Tianbao Mountain!"

……

"This world of the Moonlight Landscape Painting is too huge. It's been ten months, but I haven't run into Senior Brother Qing Ping and Sloppy. Well, there's also Ji Ning and Yu Wei!" A red-haired young man spread out his spiritual sense, searching aimlessly for places where the vitality of heaven and earth was fluctuating. Now that more than half a year had passed, countless Wanxiang Zhenren had either died or been eliminated, so it was naturally not as easy to run into a fight as before.

"Master Minghong, do you like fighting so much?" The dark-skinned bald boy at the side said helplessly.

Wan Nianfeng pestered him and fought with him for ten times before he gave up. Although he also benefited a lot from the battle, no one wanted to fight with a cultivator who wanted to fight unless it was necessary.

Until later, more and more immortal cultivators formed alliances in groups, and the two of them had no choice but to retreat when facing the increasing number of immortal cultivator teams alone. So they also formed a team, and they could be more relaxed with each other.

"Hmm?" Master Heishi stopped immediately, and Wan Nianfeng also stopped.

"Is there someone practicing nearby?" Wan Nianfeng looked into the distance and saw a figure in a green Taoist robe sitting cross-legged on a large rock in front of a stone pond. Invisible air currents were flowing around the young man. Wisps of wind blew on the pond water, blew through the fallen leaves in the forest, and surrounded the sitting figure...

"Is this... an epiphany?" True Man Black Stone stared at the young man and said in a deep voice, "This cultivator is very strong! If a fight breaks out... the trial will end in less than two months. Our talisman is enough to pass the trial, so it's best not to cause any complications."

As Master Heishi said this, he glanced at the red-haired young man beside him calmly.

Wan Nianfeng didn't say anything. He just watched quietly and murmured, "He has become stronger again!"

"Do you know this person?" Master Black Stone was stunned, looking at him carefully from a distance, "Is this... Master Qing Ping?"

"That's right! It seems that you all come from a sect called the Black and White Academy." Master Heishi suddenly realized.

"Heishi, I will take you to meet him after Qingping finishes his enlightenment. And the fat, white, young cultivator in the distance is also an extremely capable cultivator." Wan Nianfeng smiled slightly and pointed to the sloppy fat boy who was also sitting on a big rock in the distance eating and drinking.

"Yeah. Okay." Master Black Stone nodded and looked at the two Masters of All Things beside the stone pond with interest. Now that there was no need to fight and no trouble, he was naturally in no hurry to leave.

Gradually, everything calmed down.

Ji Xiaoshan slowly opened his eyes and smiled. "Qingping! Sloppy Senior Brother!" A red-haired young man and a dark-skinned bald boy immediately flew over.

Ji Xiaoshan looked up and smiled. "Before Senior Brother Sloppy and I could go look for you, you came straight here."

"If I hadn't happened to come here, how could I have seen that you, Master Qingping, had realized another truth? This is the fourth truth you have realized, right? With this level of enlightenment, you are one of the top few among the more than 120,000 cultivators in the entire Mingyue Landscape!" Wan Nianfeng laughed immediately. He turned his head and looked at Master Sloppy, "Senior Brother Sloppy, don't you agree?"

Sloppy Master smiled and nodded, looking at the dark-skinned bald boy next to Wan Nianfeng, "Junior Brother Minghong, who is this?"

Ji Xiaoshan also looked at Master Black Stone, and suddenly he felt as if he was facing an endless and vast sky...

"Is this the True Man Black Stone who competed with Ji Ning and True Man Mu Zhen for the first place in the Immortal Fate Conference? But he is extremely extraordinary just by looking at him." Ji Xiaoshan thought, and turned to look at Wan Nianfeng.

Wan Nianfeng immediately pointed at the barefoot dark-skinned boy holding a black curved cane and said, "This is Master Black Stone. Master Black Stone is very good at the Fuxi stick formation and is a true master of formations... and Master Black Stone is also very strong in close combat... When I fought with him, he could walk or attack whenever he wanted, which made me suffer a lot."

"Hahaha!" Ji Xiaoshan and Sloppy Master looked at each other and laughed. They knew Wan Nianfeng's personality very well, so they could naturally imagine that scene.

Wan Nianfeng looked at Master Black Stone, pointed at Master Sloppy who was standing next to Ji Xiaoshan and said, "This is my good friend Master Qing Ping. You also know him, Fellow Daoist Black Stone, so I won't introduce him in detail. The one next to him is also my good friend, Master Sloppy."

"Fellow Daoist Heishi." Ji Xiaoshan and Sloppy Master nodded.

"How about we go together?" Wan Nianfeng said immediately, "This way we will have four top fighters. Even if we run into Xia Mang Zishan and Cang Wu Jiu's team, we can make them flee in panic."

"Okay." Master Black Stone nodded.

Ji Xiaoshan and Sloppy Master looked at each other and smiled slightly.

"Hmm." Sloppy Master looked at Wan Nianfeng, "I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until Xia Mang Zishan and Cang Wu Jiu team up."

"Oh?" Master Black Stone also looked over.

"We met Xia Mang Zishan and Cang Wu Jiu a few months ago. Xia Mang Zishan was stopped by Senior Brother Lazi, and Cang Wu Jiu was directly killed by me." Ji Xiaoshan explained with a smile.

"What?" Zhenren Heishi and Wan Nianfeng were both stunned. They had fought against Xia Mang Zishan's team before. They could barely repel them, but as for killing them... it would be a bit difficult.

……

"This True Man Qingping has realized a new truth, which is quite extraordinary. He deserves to be noticed by such a powerful person..." True Lord Xueji smiled slightly as he looked at Ji Xiaoshan in the painting of Mingyue Mountains and Waters.

Being able to comprehend a few minor paths, although a monster, is nothing in their eyes. However, Ji Xiaoshan can comprehend two or three major paths at the same time. The sword path and the Qiankun path have all reached the level of the great path. This is somewhat rare in the realm of Wanxiang Zhenren.

You should know that the prerequisite for becoming a true immortal is to understand the great way.

"Hmm?" Lu Dongbin, who was paying attention to Ji Ning and Yu Wei, was stunned. He turned to look at Master Xue Ji and said proudly, "My master has a unique vision. The disciple he chose is naturally not bad."

"You! You are really not just talking about being thick-skinned!" The Northern Immortal smiled and shook his head, "Earlier you said you wanted to take Qing Ping Zhenren as your disciple, and now you say this. Isn't this just another way of boasting about your unique vision?"

All the gods and immortals laughed.

……

Xuanji Tianxian felt unhappy when he saw Ji Xiaoshan, whose cultivation had improved again.

He really has feelings for Shao Yannong and really wants to avenge him! Moreover, the hatred between Shao Yanshi and Ji Xiaoshan and Ji Ning is already very great. After all, they had sent assassins to kill him before.

Although it was not only useless, but also became a stepping stone for these two people to become famous. But success or failure is different from whether or not to take action. How can we know if these two people will seek revenge on Shao Yan's family when they are really strong enough in the future?
He had been keeping an eye on this Immortal Fate Conference from the beginning. Not only was Ji Xiaoshan so talented, but even Ji Ning was not inferior to other geniuses like Xia Mang Zishan and Shao Yanxuan of his Shao Yan clan.

From the moment the assassins were sent out, the hatred could no longer be resolved.

With no way out, he could only consider swallowing the bitter fruit and asking a strong man of Emperor Xia's level to come forward to reconcile, or... fight to the death!
But it is obvious that these are out of the control of Xuanji Tianxian.

……

"It should be time!"

On a big rock, Ji Xiaoshan suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at several figures who were also sitting cross-legged not far away, and his heart moved.

Sudden--

"After one year, the eighty people with the most letter tokens will pass the test of the Bright Moon and Landscape Painting."
