Chapter 58 Qingwu, Qingwu?
Southern Xinjiang, outside the Qingwu Sect’s mountain gate.

Towering peaks that reach the clouds stand on the top of the mountains, and on them are dotted with fairy-like buildings. Practitioners in green robes control their magic tools and travel through the clouds, making it seem like a fairyland.

Lu Yan looked at the fairy palace standing between the towering mountains in front of him, his eyes filled with indescribable shock.

"I'm afraid this kind of wonder can only be found in the Xianxia version."

Strictly speaking, what Lu Yan had previously come into contact with in the fairy-xia versions were all the lowest-level ecosystems of the versions, with a large number of independent cultivators traveling back and forth between the market town and the monster mountain range to earn spirit stones, living a low-level life that could barely sustain their cultivation.

The real core of the Xianxia version is the sect that controls many resources and the fairy city that gathers forces from all sides.

It’s a pity that these places are out of reach for the vast majority of independent cultivators.

Lu Yan was able to come here because of Ji Xingyao's help.

The note that Ji Xingyao left in the storage bag not only explained the function of the scripture transmission order, but also provided some related information.

After leaving Qinggu Market, Ji Xingyao captured Xie Yun. Through Xie Yun's confession, he revealed the truth about the destruction of Qinggu Market by the independent cultivators. Ji Xingyao used this as an excuse to challenge the other disciples to a sword fight.

However, since there was hope for the future, Ji Xingyao did not kill these disciples of the sect, but only seriously injured them.

Ji Xingyao's foundation showed signs of recovery, and the small actions of these disciples were really not acceptable, so even the sect's top leaders acquiesced to Ji Xingyao's actions.

After severely damaging these sect disciples, Ji Xingyao even offered compensation and secured a lot of resources.

However, this scripture transmission order was obtained secretly through certain channels by Ji Xingyao using those resources as compensation.

Although his direct disciple was seriously injured, he still gritted his teeth and contributed a lot of resources. At this moment, he had already set his sights on Ji Xingyao.

If Ji Xingyao came into contact with Lu Yan, Lu Yan would definitely become a thorn in the eyes of those disciples.

In order to avoid affecting Lu Yan, Ji Xingyao secretly sent the scripture transmission order and asked Lu Yan to go to the Sutra Repository to choose it personally.

With this scripture transmission order in hand, Lu Yan can go to the Qingwu Sect's Scripture Pavilion to browse the classics collected on the first three floors, among which there is a high probability that there are methods for refining meritorious magic weapons.

In addition to the method of refining merit magic weapons, Lu Yan could even find other inherited techniques related to the Merit Sect in the Sutra Library, but he could only bring out the method of refining merit magic weapons.

This alone is enough to prove the preciousness of the Scripture Transmission Order.

When we arrived at the entrance of Qingwu Sect's mountain gate, we saw a group of monks queuing up to register to join the sect, while those monks wearing green robes completely ignored the registration rules and drove their flying instruments into the mountain gate.

Whenever such a cultivator passed by, the casual cultivators in the queue could not help but show envy.

Fortunately, most of the cultivators who were able to come here had already prepared the procedures, and the registration to join the sect was not slow, and soon it was Lu Yan's turn.

"Name?"

"Lu Yan."

"What is your purpose for entering the Qingwu Sect's mountain gate? Do you have a recommendation warrant for sect disciples?"

Behind the counter was a middle-aged cultivator at the peak of his Qi training, his voice was lazy and weak.

Lu Yan did not reply, but took out the scripture transmission order from the storage bag and handed it over.

Upon seeing the scripture transmission order, the originally lazy middle-aged monk suddenly sat up straight and immediately reached out to take the token.

"Pass on the scripture order?"

The middle-aged monk's voice trembled a little, and he quickly looked up and down at Lu Yan in front of him and asked tentatively:

"Who gave you this scripture transmission order?"

Lu Yan frowned slightly: "When did Qingwu Sect need to ask the source of the scripture transmission order?" The middle-aged cultivator was shocked and waved his hands repeatedly: "No need, no need!"

Then he took out a jade disc engraved with array patterns from the counter beside him and said to Lu Yan:

"This is your temporary jade disc, which can protect you from the influence of the sect protection formation within the mountain gate, but it is only effective for one month.

If you want to stay here for a month, you can come back here to exchange the jade disc."

Lu Yan nodded, put away the jade disc and strode into the mountain gate.

Seeing this, a young cultivator in the late stage of Qi training who was standing behind Lu Yan couldn't help but ask:
"Why can we, the inner disciples, only get three-day tokens, but he can get the highest-level jade disc and can keep changing it after it expires?"

The middle-aged monk glanced at the middle-aged man at the peak of Qi training and snorted with disdain.

"Come in if you want, get out if you don't want!"

As the jade disc lit up with a spiritual light, Lu Yan successfully entered the mountain gate of Qingwu Sect and immediately felt the massive amount of spiritual energy coming towards him.

Lu Yan's spiritual sense could almost sense the trajectory of the spiritual energy. A large amount of spiritual energy was floating in this protective formation, and he could easily exhale and inhale it just by breathing.

“It is said that the Qingwu Sect’s God-Transforming Ancestor moved mountains and filled the sea to collect hundreds of spiritual veins above the third level, and sealed them inside the Qingwu Sect’s mountain gate, which is why there is such a rich spiritual energy.

The concentration of spiritual energy here is more than five times higher than that in the Dongfu area of ​​Qinggufang City. You don't even need to breathe deliberately here to move the spiritual energy around.

This is just the foot of the mountain. If we reach the residence of Qingwu Sect disciples or the cave area, the concentration of spiritual energy will definitely be higher."

Only at this moment did Lu Yan understand why only the foundation-building cultivators could have a certain status in the Qingwu Sect.

The Qi training stage is actually a process of accumulating magical power. With this concentration of spiritual energy, as long as you are willing to put in the effort, it is completely possible to cultivate to the peak of Qi training.

But the next foundation-building stage will block a large number of people with insufficient talents, which is why there is a strict division between outer disciples and inner disciples.

Amazed at the generosity of the Xuanmen sect, Lu Yan followed the instructions on the note and piloted a low-grade magical flying boat towards the Qingwu sect's Sutra Library.

After flying over the servants' yard at the foot of the mountain and entering the Qingwu Sect's mountain gate, not long after, a beautiful female cultivator in a long palace dress flew through the sky riding a flying sword.

Although it was only a fleeting glimpse, Lu Yan still keenly saw the female cultivator's appearance.

"Why do you feel familiar?"

Before Lu Yan could react, another man stepping on a lotus leaf magic weapon flew out from the mountain. This man had a very strange appearance and had reached the peak of Qi training.

The man seemed curious about Lu Yan's presence and was about to come up and talk to him.

But when he saw that the flying boat under Lu Yan's feet was just a low-grade magic weapon, a bit of contempt instantly appeared in his eyes, and he controlled the lotus leaf magic weapon to fly away.

But at this moment, Lu Yan stood still. The man's highly recognizable appearance reminded him of a small internet celebrity on the urban version of the short video platform.

He made his debut by dressing himself up as an ugly man and has tens of thousands of fans, making him a well-known figure in Los Angeles.

This immediately inspired Lu Yan. Recalling the appearance of the female cultivator in palace dress, Lu Yan then matched her with another internet celebrity in the urban version who had over 100,000 fans.

Before Lu Yan could figure out the reason, the flying boat flew over a mountain. Dozens of cultivators were watching a fight around the martial arts arena on the top of the mountain.

Taking in everyone's appearance, Lu Yan was surprised to find that most of these people could find corresponding internet celebrities on the short video platform, and they all came from the same place.

"Qingwu Qingwu Group?"
