Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 118 The quota is determined
The next morning, we crossed the sea cliff.

Chen Mu got up early, packed up, and then used the Wind-Flying Technique to fly slowly towards the top of Tianhu Peak.

Although he did not see the Beast Taming Sect's envoy coming to pay a visit to the mountain yesterday, not long after, Niu Dali excitedly climbed up the cliff and told him about it. Before leaving, he gave him many instructions, asking him to fight for a spot so that they could go together to slay the monster.

Although he was concerned about the dangers of demonic threats, he did not rule out going.

That's why he was preparing to look for Lin Shuyun, hoping to settle down soon...

After a while, Chen Mu dispersed his magic and landed on the top of the mountain.

After glancing around, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

The morning was foggy, but he could still see the crowd at a glance.

The peak, which had previously been sparsely populated, was now bustling with people chatting and chatting.

"I originally thought that if I came earlier, I might be able to take advantage..." Chen Mu laughed inwardly and thought to himself, "Who knew everyone would think the same? It seems that I am the latecomer."

He did not show any expression on his face as he walked steadily towards the inner room by the lake. All the Tianhu disciples who saw him along the way had serious expressions and bowed to him.

"Senior Brother Chen is here."

"With Junior Brother Chen's cultivation, if he wants to go to Wanshou County to help, he will definitely be able to do so..."

"Brother Chen, could you please say a few good words for me in front of the Peak Master? I will reward you handsomely afterwards..."

Chen Mu nodded in return. After hearing the words of the female disciple who claimed to be his junior sister, he looked over and saw a female cultivator dressed boldly in a fiery red dress that exposed her shoulders and back. She was pretending to be shy and smiling with her hands covering her mouth, which made people who saw her imagine endlessly.

"Junior Sister Li... I remember you weren't like this before. How did you become like this?"

Chen Mu was stunned for a moment, and the image of Junior Sister Li in the past came to his mind, but he didn't think much about it. He just laughed dryly and dealt with it casually.

Without stopping, they arrived at the lakeside in a moment. They asked the disciple on duty at the entrance of the corridor, "Has the Peak Master been seen today?"

The disciple on duty bowed and replied, "No."

Chen Mu nodded, turned around and looked at the Tianhu disciples who had been waiting here early, thinking it was a pity.

Without the approval of the peak master, the disciples on duty would not dare to let anyone in easily.

He did not ask for this exception and stood aside waiting.

Time passed by little by little, but the people on the top of the mountain were not impatient at all. No one was an exception, so everyone was waiting together and not worried about the lack of places for no reason.

After a long time, dawn broke and the fog dissipated.

"Tattoo..."

A series of footsteps came from the corridor on the lake. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a female cultivator in a white dress walking lightly. She arrived at the entrance of the corridor in a moment.

"The Peak Master has ordered that fellow disciples below the eighth level of Qi Condensation can return first!"

One word caused a thousand waves. Among them, there were quite a few disciples at the seventh level of Qi Condensation.

"Why is it limited to eight levels? When the Sect Master summoned us before, didn't he say that the limit was seven levels?"

"Yes, I came here to wait in the middle of the night..."

"This junior brother is obviously talking nonsense. I got the news yesterday and I have been waiting here to be summoned by the Peak Master. How come I haven't seen you?" Everyone kept talking in a few words. Some asked for the reason, some complained, and some even exposed his shortcomings.

For a moment, the beautiful Tianhu Lake was as noisy as a morning market on earth.

"Don't make a fuss. The Peak Master has said personally that when I go to another realm this time, I must show the elegance of Shuiyunjian. If I can't go because of my cultivation level, I can't blame others!"

"If you still feel resentful, please find an opportunity to speak to the Peak Master and don't embarrass me by chattering here."

The female cultivator in the white dress shouted loudly, and a refreshing aura emerged spontaneously.

"I don't go out much, and I've never even met this female disciple..."

The contrast between the seemingly gentle and sweet-looking female cultivator and Chen Mu beside her was so great that even he was amazed.

Those who were asking questions were also frightened by the female cultivator and did not dare to ask any further questions. They could only sigh deeply and turn away.

The female cultivator in the white dress turned slightly, looked at Chen Mu, and said softly, "Senior Brother Chen, please follow me first."

Chen Mu was not surprised. He nodded and followed her in.

After a while, the two arrived at the main hall of Tianhu. At this time, Lin Shuyun was already sitting at the top of the hall. Behind her stood two beautiful female cultivators, Han Jing and Ningxia. After seeing Chen Mu come in, Han Jing kept blinking at him.

Chen Mu pursed his lips and smiled, then took two steps forward, bowed, and said, "Disciple greets the Peak Master."

Lin Shuyun nodded and said calmly, "Are you interested in joining the Ten Thousand Beasts trek this time?"

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, no longer worried, and immediately nodded and said, "Disciple is willing to go!"

"Okay, I'll feel much more at ease if you can take the lead..."

Chen Mu was stunned when he heard this and asked, "May I ask Peak Master, should I take the lead? Aren't the true disciples going this time?"

Although he is now one of the few tenth-level disciples in Tianhu Peak, he is still just a follower in front of the true disciples.

Lin Shuyun shook his head and said slowly, "According to the Beastmaster Sect, this time the demonic infestation isn't as severe as last time. The inner disciples are more than enough to assist... There's no need for the true disciples to go. After all, their most important priority right now is to establish their foundation."

As soon as she finished speaking, she curled her lips again and muttered softly, "I guess if they weren't worried about not reporting it, when the demon plague suddenly became stronger and the other five sects had no time to support them, they could have resisted it with the strength of their own sect. Why would they need to send anyone to report it? After all, the demon plague is also an opportunity. All kinds of rare demon beasts that used to hide in the mountains have been driven to attack..."

Chen Mu nodded in sudden realization. He hadn't heard what Niu Dali said. If it was really as Lin Shuyun said, the true disciples really didn't need to go out. After all, they stayed in the sect and didn't have to worry about resources. If one person could really build a foundation, it would be a great achievement for the sect.

Lin Shuyun said again: "You go wait aside for a while."

Chen Mu came to his senses after hearing this and walked aside.

The breeze was blowing and there were constant sounds in the hall.

More than ten people came in one after another, and finally, with Lin Shuyun's nod, the fifteen places for Tianhu Peak were decided.

Chen Mu looked up and found that there were only a few familiar faces, Ge Guanghe, Gu Liang, Ningxia, and Senior Brother Cheng Yuan who also participated in the comparison between the two peaks. Apart from them, he couldn't remember any other names.

However, judging from their realm, most of these fifteen people are at the ninth level or above, with only two being eighth-level cultivators. This group of people can already rival some small sects...

At this time, Lin Shuyun was also looking at the disciples below, with his brows slightly frowned. Judging from his expression, he did not seem to be very satisfied.

After a moment, he said in a loud voice: "During this campaign against the Ten Thousand Beast Demon Plague, the six sects of Zhao State have gathered together. Although they are united in fighting the demons, they will definitely have dirty dealings with each other, especially with the cultivator from the Golden Light Valley."
