Six Realms Immortal Emperor

I woke up in the middle of the night.

Xu Jingtian was still sitting cross-legged on the bed, unaware that his newly changed Taoist robe had been soaked through and dried several times, and that he had absorbed every last drop of the pill in his mouth.

Xu Jingtian stood up, his fatigue from the day gone, feeling refreshed and full of energy, his spiritual power replenished to its fullest.

Fortunately, he still had one pill left.

"Then let's learn another lightning control technique."

Lightning control is not only suitable for ranged attacks, but also boasts the fastest attack speed among various spells, making it a valuable tool for emergencies. If he were to participate in the wilderness trials, lightning control would undoubtedly be a must-learn skill.

A tiny ray of light streaked across the summit of Wandan Pavilion, silent and fleeting.

Xu Jingtian gazed at the light and gave a wry smile. It had taken him several hours to finally master the lightning control technique. However, his cultivation level was still too low to discern the true power of this technique.

Let's practice these two spells for now. It seems Ochi was right. Spell practice not only consumes time but also spiritual energy. Without a reserve of pills, it would be difficult to continue practicing.

Xu Jingtian spent three days practicing these two spells without realizing it, and before he knew it, it was time for the wilderness trial.

"It's time to participate in the wilderness trial!" Xu Jingtian said confidently as he walked out of Wan Dan Pavilion.

Although his cultivation level is not high now, after such hard work and diligent training, he will be more than capable of protecting himself if he participates in the trial.

The Wilderness Trials are a special training ground used by the Brahma Sect to hone its outer disciples. Here, ferocious beasts unlike anything found in the outside world roam, greatly aiding the outer disciples in their magical practice, especially in gaining practical combat experience.

If one performs exceptionally well in the wilderness trials, they will receive strong support and training from the Brahma Sect, and their strength and cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.

Therefore, even though the wilderness trials might be dangerous, outer disciples who have reached a certain level of cultivation will still participate. Most of them are there for the sect's generous rewards.

"Xu Jingtian!" Several bird calls rang out, and Dongfang Sixing arrived as promised, accompanied by a dark-skinned, thin young man.

"Huang Shaoyuan!" Xu Jingtian recognized him immediately.

"Yes!" Huang Shaoyuan replied gratefully. If Xu Jingtian hadn't been taken away by Ochi, he wouldn't have had the chance to be chosen by Daoist Cen Yang.

"You're here too!" Xu Jingtian said, patting him on the shoulder.

"Yeah, I just reached the first level of Qi Refining and wanted to try my luck here," Huang Shaoyuan said with a silly grin, looking a little awkward.

"So, do you dare to come along?" Dongfang Sixing said to him with disdain.

"I'll go!" Xu Jingtian readily agreed. He was now at the second level of Qi Refining and had magic to protect himself, so he certainly wouldn't lose to the two of them.

"Wow, you're pretty brave! Don't drag me down later," Dongfang Sixing said with a smirk.

Xu Jingtian rolled his eyes at him and ignored him.

"Come up!" Huang Shaoyuan said, reaching out his hand to him.

Xu Jingtian leaped onto the back of the Purple Flame Eagle and sat steadily behind Huang Shaoyuan.

The Purple Flame Eagle let out a long cry and carried them away from the Brahma Sect, disappearing into the air in an instant.

Before long, they flew to a place a hundred miles away from the Brahma Sect and landed in a deep mountain. There were already thousands of outer sect disciples gathered there, mostly in groups of three or five, all seemingly hoping to show off their skills in the wilderness trials.

"Oh, you've finally arrived!" As soon as the two landed, a plump disciple ran up and called out.

"Gu Tianxing!" Xu Jingtian had a deep impression of him and immediately recognized him.

"I knew you'd be part of this wilderness trial!" Gu Tianxing chuckled and said. He still clearly remembered that Xu Jingtian was the first disciple to pass the test.

"You're here too!" Xu Jingtian gave him a warm hug; they hadn't seen each other for over a year.

"Yes, we're just like Huang Shaoyuan, we're all here to join in the fun," Gu Tianxing said, pointing to several disciples behind him.

"Brother Xu!" At this moment, a woman stepped out from behind the crowd.

"Miss Wanruo!" Xu Jingtian said with delight, "You've come too! I didn't expect your cultivation to have reached the first level of Qi Refining."

Although Li Wanruo still looked quite frail, she exuded a faint aura of ethereal beauty, and compared to when she first arrived, she had become even more exquisite. Upon seeing Xu Jingtian, she recalled the scene when she entered and left the sect, and her eyes couldn't help but redden as she said gratefully, "It was all thanks to Brother Xu's help back then that Wanruo is where she is today."

If it weren't for Xu Jingtian's help, with her strength, she definitely wouldn't have been able to reach the top. She would have only been able to do hard labor in the sect and wouldn't have been able to cultivate at all.

"Ahem!" At this moment, Dongfang Sixing coughed a few times, feeling somewhat displeased.

Li Wanruo then turned around, thanked Dongfang Sixing, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Oh, and Brother Sixing, if it weren't for Brother Sixing clearing the way ahead, Wanruo would never have been able to climb up."

Dongfang Sixing couldn't help but feel a little smug. He glanced at Xu Jingtian provocatively and said, "Of course. If it weren't for me, none of you would have made it up there smoothly."

"Yes, yes," Gu Tianxing casually agreed, then said to Xu Jingtian, "I didn't expect that after a year, Brother Jingtian has also reached the second level of Qi Refining. We didn't have much hope this time, but we all came here because of you."

"Hmph!" Dongfang Sixing was displeased again upon hearing this, but he did not say anything.

Gu Tianxing then realized he had offended him and hurriedly changed his words, saying, "Of course, there's also Senior Brother Sixing. He's been very kind to us before, and this time it goes without saying. Please continue to do so, both of you."

"It's alright, if we encounter danger, we'll all go together!" Xu Jingtian replied enthusiastically, but Dongfang Sixing pretended not to hear and turned his face away.

"Look, look!"

"It's an inner disciple!"

"Wow, it's so beautiful!"

Just as they were having a lively conversation, the surrounding crowd started making a commotion.

A female disciple dressed in pink flew from afar on a sword, circled above everyone's heads several times, and then landed at a certain spot.

This woman had bright white teeth and long, flowing hair. She was beautiful but not seductive, like a fairy who didn't eat the food of mortals, making the other female disciples pale in comparison.

Among the thousands of outer disciples, there were of course hundreds of female disciples, but compared to this woman, they were worlds apart.

The woman's appearance caused some chaos. Some outer disciples disregarded the occasion and shouted incessantly, while others simply moved closer to her, vying to catch a glimpse of her beauty.

After landing, the woman with pink makeup immediately approached a group of people, much to the disappointment of the other outer disciples.

"Dongfang Siyu!" Xu Jingtian recognized her at a glance. What was she doing here?

When the outer disciples around Xu Jingtian saw the woman approaching, their mouths were agape, and they were speechless, completely infatuated.

"She's like a fairy! Look, she's coming this way!"

Upon seeing the woman, Gu Tianxing shouted excitedly, as if she had come specifically for him. Dongfang Siyu was simply too beautiful; no male disciple could resist her, and he was no exception.

The woman walked gracefully towards them, getting closer and closer, and Gu Tianxing felt his heart pounding faster.

Xu Jingtian kept staring at Dongfang Siyu. To say he liked her wouldn't be accurate; he was still in the early stages of understanding romantic relationships. Besides, he was self-aware enough not to expect Dongfang Siyu to reciprocate his feelings.

Dongfang Siyu walked over, looked at Xu Jingtian, and smiled.

"What brings you here? Has your cultivation problem been resolved?"

Dongfang Siyu looked at him with concern, and Xu Jingtian was a little flattered. The question was naturally about what they had discussed during their last meeting.

"Yes, Elder Ochi personally guided me, and now my cultivation is no longer a problem."

"Oh, that's great!" Dongfang Siyu said happily, "So, how's your cultivation level?"

"My cultivation has barely reached the second level of Qi Refining. Elder Ochi also taught me a few simple spells. I wanted to come here to train myself in practice."

"Oh, so quickly you've reached the second level of Qi Refining. You really have the makings of a cultivator. It seems the Dongfang family made the right choice!" Dongfang Siyu's eyes lit up.

"You too, haven't you? It's been half a year since we last met, and your cultivation has improved quite a bit." Xu Jingtian saw her flying on her sword and knew that her cultivation had improved again.

Dongfang Siyu smiled modestly, unsure whether it was true or not, and said with a smile, "I'm relieved about that. Most of the wild animals in this wilderness trial are tough and resilient. You should be able to protect yourself if you encounter any danger."

Seeing the two talking like this, the outer disciples beside Xu Jingtian were even more surprised, sensing that their relationship was not simple, and they all speculated about the relationship between Dongfang Siyu and Xu Jingtian. Meanwhile, the outer disciples in the distance, seeing them talking, were extremely envious, and even Xu Jingtian himself started paying attention.
