Mortal: I possess a copy of the Jade Manual of the Sea of ​​Consciousness!

"It looks like people can get on over there, shall we give it a try?"

Han Li and the others looked at what Wang Xuan was pointing to and roughly measured it with their fingers.

"If you climb back to back, with your arms linked, you might have a chance."

After thinking for a moment, Li Feiyu came up with a solution.

"But that rock face looks so steep and slippery. What if I accidentally slip and fall?"

No sooner had Li Feiyu finished speaking than someone retorted.

Li Feiyu frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "This is just a suggestion. Whether you try it or not is entirely up to you. I'm not forcing you to climb it."

Wang Xuan looked at Li Feiyu and said, "Li Feiyu, why don't we give it a try?"

"I went hunting in the mountains with my father a few years ago and learned a little rock climbing. If you think you're good enough, why don't you lend a hand?"

Wang Xuan's words attracted Li Feiyu, making her somewhat interested.

The Seven Mysteries Sect's recruitment test is held once a year. If he still fails to enter the Seven Mysteries Sect this time, he will have wasted a whole year. It is still very necessary to take a gamble.

Upon hearing this, Han Li glanced at Zhang Tie beside him, who maintained a simple and honest smile.

"Alright, but let's make this clear first: if we slip and fall, I won't be helping you out."

Li Feiyu had already laid out the unpleasant truth beforehand, but Wang Xuan didn't mind and said, "Don't worry, let's go."

Ignoring everyone else, Li Feiyu and Wang Xuan stood back to back, their feet off the ground, resting on the rock walls on either side, and slowly began to move upwards.

Seeing this, Mo Juren, who was on a gentle slope, thought to himself, "Ahem! He does have a bit of cleverness. Let's see if he can pass the test."

He was betrayed by a villain, and although he was only in his thirties, he looked like an old man in his seventies or eighties, and he was only able to prolong his life because of the Golden Marrow Pill.

If he can't find someone with spiritual roots, he might not have many years left to live.

"Hopefully there's still time..."

It was about half an incense stick's time before noon, and many people had already reached the finish line.

Even those who had thrown stones at them earlier were now rushing toward the finish line.

Wang Xuan and Li Feiyu's legs trembled. They had made it up, but their strength was almost exhausted. Looking at the finish line at the end of their vision, Wang Xuan's eyelids twitched.

"I can't do it anymore. Your method works a bit better, but it's just too tiring. I don't want to move at all right now."

Li Feiyu squatted on the ground and waved his hand. The method was good, but those guys were really disgusting.

They had climbed most of the way up the rock face when, unexpectedly, the group that had thrown the stones started to run away!

If they weren't so close to the summit, they might have slid down and started climbing again.

Han Li and his group had caught up by this time, but they were in slightly better condition than Wang Xuan and his group.

Zhang Tie walked over from Han Li and pulled Wang Xuan and Li Feiyu along.

"How are you guys? Can you still climb the mountain?"

Wang Xuan nodded: "We can still climb a little. Let's hurry, the test is almost over."

Upon hearing this, Li Feiyu, who was resting to the side, hurriedly got up, and the group continued to rush upwards.

Time passed second by second.

Just as Wang Xuan, Han Li, and the others were about to reach the summit, a dignified middle-aged man appeared before them.

He slowly announced, "This entrance test is over. Those who fail to reach the peak by the deadline will be eliminated!"

If you still want to join my Seven Mysteries Sect, then come back next year at this time.

Don't think that just because you're a little short of reaching the finish line, I'll make an exception and accept you all this time.

Rules are rules. My Seven Mysteries Sect has been fighting the Wild Wolf Gang for years. They won't make an exception for us. Go back now.

The Seven Mysteries Sect Leader Wang looked calmly at these naive youngsters and spoke.

Wang Xuan listened quietly in the crowd, his mind somewhat heavy.

Unexpectedly, even though he climbed the rock face a step earlier, he was still only a little short of time.

So he could only leave it to fate, hoping that Doctor Mo would take a liking to him.

Just as everyone was feeling disheartened and preparing to pack up and head down the mountain, a coughing sound came from behind Master Wang and the others.

"Ahem! Sect Leader Wang, please wait a moment. My Divine Hand Valley is still short of a few medicine boys."

The fact that they were able to climb this far shows that they are quite capable.

"You, and the three of you, shall become disciples of my Divine Hand Valley."

With his hands behind his back and an aged expression, Mo Juren walked slowly towards us.

His white hair hung down like a child's, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to tell of the storms he had weathered, making him look quite weathered.

When Sect Leader Wang saw the old man, he looked somewhat surprised. "I didn't expect you to come."

After saying that, Sect Leader Wang looked at Wang Xuan and the other three people who had been chosen by Mo Juren and said, "You four are really lucky. Doctor Mo is the only physician in my Seven Mysteries Sect. It is your blessing to be able to become his disciples."

Wang Xuan and his three companions were suddenly chosen, and they looked somewhat excited.

Unexpectedly, they were chosen to join the Seven Mysteries Sect. It seems that Doctor Mo's status is definitely not low, and even Sect Leader Wang treats him with great respect.

The unchosen boys looked at Wang Xuan and his companions with envy and jealousy.

Although they only became disciples of a physician and their future studies might only involve medical texts, they still lived a life free from worries about food and clothing.

Wang Xuan, Han Li, and Zhang Tie naturally had their objections, but Li Feiyu, who was devoted to martial arts, looked somewhat hesitant.

Seeing Li Feiyu's hesitant expression, Doctor Mo asked in confusion, "What's wrong? You're not willing?"

As soon as these words were spoken, countless eyes turned to Li Feiyu, trying to discern his thoughts.

The opportunity is right in front of you, so why not agree?

Li Feiyu took a deep breath, his hesitant expression turning into determination, and said, "Thank you for your kind offer, Doctor Mo, but I still wish to become an inner disciple of the Seven Mysteries Sect and master superb martial arts. I would be sorry to disappoint you."

Doctor Mo's composure remained unmoved by Li Feiyu's resolute tone.

He said calmly, "Since you have made your own choice, I will not force you. Go then."

Wang Xuan glanced at Li Feiyu, surprised that the other party would make this choice.

Han Li also took a few more glances at Li Feiyu, whom he had only spent a short time with, and probably did not expect that Li Feiyu would refuse Doctor Mo.

Li Feiyu's matter was ultimately just a minor incident. Following Doctor Mo, Wang Xuan and the other two traveled to a secluded place.

This place boasts both mountains and water, with several thatched cottages nestled on a small lake.

The bustling crowd created a scene reminiscent of a secluded paradise.

"This is my Divine Hand Valley. The environment is quite nice, isn't it?"

The three nodded and looked around curiously.

Seeing this, Doctor Mo chuckled and walked towards a thatched hut.

"Although I won't teach you martial arts here, I do have an internal energy cultivation method that I can teach you. If you master it, it can prolong your life!"

"Longevity? Is there really such an internal skill in this world?!" Zhang Tie exclaimed in astonishment, his mouth agape.

He had only ever heard of martial arts masters being able to fight ten men single-handedly and kill without leaving a trace, but he had never heard of martial arts being able to make people live longer.

Doctor Mo smiled but remained silent. He spread three prayer mats on the ground and then became serious: "Although I am not a martial arts master, I do have some insights into medicine. It will not be difficult for me to teach you."

"Would you be willing to become my disciples?"

Without hesitation, Wang Xuan and the other two knelt down on the prayer mats and kowtowed several times.

"Disciple greets Master!"

Mo Juren laughed and stroked his beard: "Get up. Now that you've become my disciple, you should naturally maintain a certain image."

"Go wash up in the hot water. Once you're done, I will formally teach you the nameless incantation and let you know the rules of my Divine Hand Valley!"

After leaving the thatched hut, Han Li and the other two looked at each other and smiled.

"I never imagined we'd have such a connection, becoming fellow disciples," Wang Xuan said with a smile.

Han Li nodded and smiled slightly, seemingly shy, while Zhang Tie responded in a carefree manner, "From now on, we're brothers! Let's work hard together!"

Wang Xuan smiled; knowing the truth, he had never considered this place his second home.

"Let's boil some water and wash up first. I feel all sticky and uncomfortable."

"OK."

Watching the three figures with their arms around each other, Doctor Mo stood quietly at the door of the thatched hut, his eyes no longer showing the kindness he had shown before.

"Hopefully, one of these three will possess spiritual roots. Time is running out... cough cough!"
