Elder Master Li’s words ceased, and Li Qingqing spoke, her voice full of doubt:
“Grandfather…”
“Didn’t you say this secret realm was a cave?”
“How come there are also cave dwellings?”
Not only Li Qingqing, but the others shared the same look of confusion.
Seeing their reactions…
Elder Master Li then spoke, explaining to everyone:
“The cave dwellings within the Cleansing Spirit Pool were specifically excavated by the three major sects…”
“Today, as you have entered this place, you must have seen it.”
“The original plan of the three major sects was to transform this area into the second Nanshan Market.”
“And behind this Fang Market, in the Cleansing Spirit Pool area, will become a gold mine for the sects to earn Spirit Stones in the future.”
“Now it hasn’t been completely built, and it hasn’t officially started yet.”
“In the future…”
“If you want to enter the Cleansing Spirit Pool, you will need to pay with Spirit Stones…”
With Elder Master Li’s explanation…
The group immediately understood.
It was no wonder…
That the three major sects would spend a significant amount of manpower and resources to build this Fang Market.
It turns out they intended to take the Cleansing Spirit Pool for themselves.
In doing so, not only could they train their own disciples, but they could also allow others to enter for cultivation and collect Spirit Stones.
It was truly killing two birds with one stone.
And they…
Seemed to be the first batch of experiencers of the Cleansing Spirit Pool.
Afterward.
Elder Master Li continued:
“The tokens in your hands are exclusive to the internal region, and can only be used for cultivation within the internal area of the Cleansing Spirit Pool.”
“There are formations all over the Cleansing Spirit Pool, and without a token for the core region, it’s impossible to enter there.”
Elder Master Li’s words made Li Qingqing suddenly realize:
“No wonder…”
“So that’s what you meant earlier when you spoke of the core region, internal region, and the outer region…”
Elder Master Li nodded in affirmation.
“Yes…”
With this explanation, Lin Jing also understood.
Previously, Li Tangyu had mentioned these three areas to them.
So that was what he meant.
At this moment, Elder Master Li continued to speak:
“You only have seven days for this cultivation session…”
“You must make good use of it…”
After hearing this, everyone nodded.
Then…
Elder Master Li gave a few more instructions, and let them all go back.
Early the next morning.
The group finished their meditation early and gathered together.
Since Elder Master Li was responsible for leading them inside, but not entering himself,
Therefore.
Next, it was time for them to go together.
The group first went to Elder Master Li, said their farewells,
Then.
They left the small courtyard and headed toward the Cleansing Spirit Pool behind the Fang Market.
On this road, it wasn’t only them.
There were many other disciples from various family clans.
Basically.
All the clan disciples from inside and around Nanshan Immortal City were present.
With such an opportunity, naturally, none would miss it.
And so…
Lin Jing and the others, following the crowd, passed through the Fang Market towards the Cleansing Spirit Pool.
Along the way.
Lin Jing saw Yun Long and Liu Yiyuan again.
This time.
Liu Yiyuan did not avoid him.
He glanced at Lin Jing, snickered, and then.
His gaze found Huang Qingling beside Lin Jing.
However, this time he only gave her a deep look, and then he turned his head away.
This scene.
Was naturally witnessed by everyone.
Li Tangyu, more rational, quickly consoled Lin Jing:
“At this moment, he wouldn’t dare to do anything to you, just ignore him.”
Lin Jing nodded his head.
Although Liu Yiyuan had always wanted to kill Lin Jing, he was no fool.
With disciples from three major sects present, and elders around, he dared only to provoke verbally.
He definitely wouldn’t dare to start a conflict with Lin Jing at this time.
If doing so led to his qualification to enter the Cleansing Spirit Pool being revoked, the loss would outweigh the gain.
As for Huang Qingling, she pursed her lips and said,
“This person really is like a bad penny…”
Although she was very dissatisfied with Liu Yiyuan,
she also knew that it was not appropriate to start a conflict at this time.
Thereafter…
To avoid encountering Liu Yiyuan again,
they deliberately slowed their pace, staying at the rear of the crowd.
Before long,
they followed the crowd to a huge cave entrance.
Just standing at this entrance, one could clearly feel the Spiritual Energy inside was extraordinary, drastically different from the outside.
At this entrance, there were several disciples from the three major sects standing guard.
Everyone entering the Cleansing Spirit Pool had to first have their Token inspected.
Only then would they be allowed to go in.
With the people from the three major sects managing the situation, no one dared to cause trouble here.
At that moment,
people in front had already had their Tokens checked and were gradually entering.
At the front of the queue were none other than Liu Yiyuan and Yun Long.
“Junior Brother Yun…”
The disciple from Nanyun Immortal Sect standing at the entrance was greeting Yun Long.
Clearly, he knew Yun Long.
“Senior Brother Yue…” Yun Long replied.
Senior Brother Yue then smiled and asked Yun Long,
“Did Elder Yun, the venerable one, bring Junior Brother Yun here?”
The Elder Yun he referred to in his words must be the Yun Family’s patriarch.
Yun Long shook his head and said,
“No…”
“Our patriarch has been quite busy recently, a clansman led us here.”
After hearing this, Senior Brother Yue nodded slightly and said,
“I see, that makes sense…”
“Your Yun Family has been busy lately, I’ve heard as much.”
Subsequently…
Yun Long took out a jade Token from his Storage Bag and handed it to Senior Brother Yue.
This Token glowed, markedly different from those in the hands of Lin Jing and the others.
“As I thought, I knew it…”
“The Token Elder Yun gave to Junior Brother must be for the core area.”
“Please, Junior Brother Yun, come in…”
Senior Brother Yue didn’t even check the Token and let Yun Long pass.
After Yun Long entered, he pointed to Liu Yiyuan behind him and said to Senior Brother Yue,
“This is Young Master Liu from the Liu Clan of Nanshan Immortal City, he’s with me…”
After hearing this, Senior Brother Yue nodded.
Then,
he directly let Liu Yiyuan through as well.
“Many thanks to Senior Brother Yue…”
Liu Yiyuan gave a fist salute to Senior Brother Yue.
“There’s no need for politeness…”
Senior Brother Yue nodded back to Liu Yiyuan and spoke.
After Liu Yiyuan entered, he turned his head back and saw Lin Jing’s group approaching them.
Next…
Liu Yiyuan turned his head and addressed Senior Brother Yue again,
“Senior Brother Yue…”
“Is there a cultivation requirement for entering this Cleansing Spirit Place?”
Senior Brother Yue knit his brows and pondered for a moment before replying,
“As of now, there is no such stipulation. As for requirements regarding cultivation, the elders have not mentioned any…”
Liu Yiyuan, looking back at Lin Jing and others, then continued,
“Oh…”
“I see…”
“I was considering reminding Senior Brother Yue not to let certain people below Foundation Establishment slip in…”
Senior Brother Yue, hearing Liu Yiyuan’s words,
followed his gaze, looking back…
and saw Lin Jing’s group, who were walking in their direction.
Within the group…
Lin Jing, at the mere eighth level of Qi Refinement, was particularly conspicuous.
Senior Brother Yue then turned back to look at Yun Long.
At this moment, it was quite clear that Yun Long had overheard the conversation, yet he said nothing.
Senior Brother Yue immediately understood.
He then said to Liu Yiyuan,
“I understand Young Master Liu’s intention, don’t worry…”
