At noon, something major happened in the Green Cloud Peak. Xiao Fan had revealed his talent and cultivation and condensed a ninth-grade Golden Core. This caused quite a commotion.

Under the witness of the nine legacy elders of the Green Cloud Peak, the inner sect elders, and Peak Master Miao Hongjian, Xiao Fan passed the test and became a legacy disciple and became Feng Zimu’s disciple.

This matter caused quite a commotion. After all, another legacy disciple of the Green Cloud Peak had appeared.

Compared to Qi Ming, Xiao Fan’s advancement path was relatively stable.

Similarly, after the many inner sect disciples of the Green Cloud Peak heard about Xiao Fan’s deeds, they were filled with hope for the future and had an even greater motivation to cultivate.

Everything was going well.

This way, because Xiao Fan had taken Feng Zimu as his master, his seniority had increased by a generation. He was no longer Qi Ming’s disciple-nephew, but Qi Ming’s junior brother.

“Congratulations, Senior Brother Xiao, for becoming a legacy disciple.” Yuan Feng congratulated him.

At the same time, Yuan Feng’s heart was also filled with envy and desire, especially after she saw Xiao Fan successfully advance to become a legacy disciple of the Green Cloud Peak. She also wanted to become a legacy disciple and set this as her goal.

The current Yuan Feng indeed had the hope and potential to become a legacy disciple of the Green Cloud Peak.

“Cough cough.” Xiao Fan coughed lightly, “Yuan Feng, you should call me Uncle-Master Xiao now.”

“Uncle… Uncle-Master Xiao…” Yuan Feng could only comply.

“Hahaha…”

Xiao Fan was in a good mood and laughed loudly.

“You…”

Yuan Feng’s face darkened.

Damn it!

Qi Ming happened to come at this moment. A faint smile appeared on his face, “Xiao Fan, not bad. You can establish a ninth-grade Golden Core and pass the test to become a legacy disciple of the Green Cloud Peak.”

“Uncle-Master Qi…”

Xiao Fan originally wanted to call Qi Ming senior brother, but when he saw the faint smile in Qi Ming’s eyes, his words immediately changed, and his face was filled with a fawning smile.

“That’s not good.” Qi Ming said, “Master took you in as his disciple. It doesn’t seem good for you to continue calling me Uncle-Master. The seniority is wrong.”

“Of course not.” Xiao Fan waved his hand and immediately said righteously, “In my heart, Uncle-Master will always be Uncle-Master. In my heart, you are my Uncle-Master. That will never change.”

“Uncle-Master, please accept my bow.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Fan bowed with both hands by his side.

Qi Ming patted Xiao Fan on the shoulder and sighed, “Xiao Fan, I think very highly of you. Continue to maintain this pure heart of yours. You will definitely become great in the future.”

“Uncle-Master, you’re right.” Xiao Fan nodded.

“Pfft…”

Yuan Feng could not help but laugh.

In the blink of an eye, another day passed.

In the morning, Qi Ming was already prepared.

He was going to leave the Green Cloud Peak and head to the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain.

Qi Ming turned around and looked at the Falling Cloud Peak and the Cave Abode that he had stayed in for more than ten years. He felt a little emotional. He was not a nostalgic person, but he would always feel a little upset when leaving.

This disappointment quickly passed.

In the surroundings, Miao Hongjian, Feng Zimu, Fairy Feng Xi, and the other nine legacy elders, Lü Qingyan, Yuan Feng, Xiao Fan, the elders, and the legacy disciples of the Green Cloud Peak came to send him off.

This was the highest treatment of the Green Cloud Peak.

“Junior Brother Qi.”

In the sky, there was an exquisite ship. It was not very large and was in the shape of a shuttle. The main body was pure silver and there were golden array patterns engraved on the ship.

On the bow of the ship, there was a young man with a fair face and long hair that fluttered. He was dressed in the Heaven Enlightenment robe and was as beautiful as a woman. He had his hands behind his back and had an indifferent expression.

“It’s time to go. It’s late. Don’t let the Sect Master and the others wait too long.”

This was the legacy disciple of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, Li Yulin, who had come to fetch Qi Ming from the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain.

“Okay.” Qi Ming nodded in response.

Swish!

His figure soared into the sky and stood on the pure silver ship.

“Senior Brother.” Qi Ming said, “We can set off.”

“Okay.” Li Yulin replied softly.

Swish!

He circulated his Dharmic powers.

The pure silver ship was like a silver stream of light that instantly disappeared from the spot. It tore through the air and transformed into a light spot that disappeared into the distance.

Around Falling Cloud Peak, Lü Qingyan and the others waved goodbye to Qi Ming.

Qi Ming stood on the deck of the pure silver ship and watched as the familiar figure quickly disappeared from his vision. His mood fluctuated a little, but he quickly returned to normal.

No matter what, he only left the Green Cloud Peak to go to the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain.

They were all still in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.

It was not like they were parting forever.

“Senior Brother Li.” Qi Ming cupped his hands and bowed to Li Yulin, “I’ve troubled you this time.”

“This is a small matter.” Li Yulin said, “You’ve been in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect for a long time. You should know that the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s management of its disciples is relatively lax.”

“The situation of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain is the same.”

“When the time comes…”

“You need to become a disciple of a Grand Elder. Of course, if you’re lucky, or if your talent is extraordinary and you reach the top of the Mystic World, perhaps an old ancestor will take a fancy to you and take you in.”

“As for the details, let’s wait until you see the Sect Master and the others.”

“Yes.” Qi Ming nodded.

During the conversation, the pure silver ship had already broken through the Cloud Mist Layer and arrived at the Astral Layer. After passing through the Astral Layer, it successfully arrived between the Astral Layer and the Void Layer.

The Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain appeared in Qi Ming’s eyes again.

Although this was not the first time Qi Ming had seen the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain, he was still shocked by its grandeur and magnificence. It was really like a paradise, like an immortal mountain of the Immortal World.

It made people yearn for it.

“Greetings, Legacy Disciple Li.”

The two guards of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain came to welcome him respectfully.

Li Yulin nodded, “Junior Brother Qi, follow me.”

Qi Ming followed.

“Greetings, Legacy Disciple Qi.” The two guards quickly bowed to Qi Ming as well.

He nodded in response.

Then, Qi Ming followed Li Yulin into the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain. They arrived at the foot of the mountain in the center and walked up the long staircase.

“Another legacy disciple has gone up the mountain.”

One of the guards stared at Qi Ming and Li Yulin’s back, his eyes filled with reverence, “This new legacy disciple on the mountain is a little familiar. I think I’ve seen him before.”

“I remember that Peak Master Miao brought Legacy Disciple Qi here a few years ago.” The other guard said.

At the top of the mountain, in the Sect Master Hall.

“I, Li Yulin, have already been ordered to bring the new legacy disciple of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, Qi Ming.” Li Yulin bowed to the Sect Master Hall and said.

“Okay.”

Immediately after, Yang Li’s voice sounded from the hall, “Li Yulin, you can go back.”

“Yes.” Li Yulin nodded.

Then, he glanced at Qi Ming and did not say anything. He turned around and left. He followed the long staircase down and walked into a small path before leaving.

“Come in.” Yang Li’s voice sounded again, “Open the door.”

Qi Ming nodded and walked forward. He stood in front of the hall and looked at the grand hall door. He took a deep breath and raised his hands. He placed them on the door and pushed it forward.

The door did not move at all.

Buzz!

Qi Ming circulated his Golden Core Dharmic powers and injected them into the hall. Waves of light shone from the hall door, neutralizing Qi Ming’s Dharmic powers. However, Qi Ming’s Golden Core Dharmic powers were majestic and condensed to the extreme.

“Open!” Qi Ming shouted.

Rumble!!!

The door to the Sect Master Hall was pushed open by Qi Ming.

“Huff…”

Qi Ming retracted his hands. The Dharmic powers around him calmed down and looked forward. What greeted his eyes was a paradise-like scene.

From the outside, the Sect Master Hall was like a palace mansion, but there was another world inside. It formed a small world and the space was much larger than what was seen in the outside world.

This scene was very different from what Qi Ming had seen previously.

“As expected of the Sect Master Hall.”

Qi Ming sighed and walked in.

Boom!

The door closed automatically.

At this moment, in the sky above, seven figures appeared.

In addition, Sect Master Yang Li was standing at the front. The other six were the Grand Elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect. They had long been waiting for Qi Ming’s arrival.

“Disciple Qi Ming greets Sect Master and the six Grand Elders.” Qi Ming cupped his hands and bowed.

Yang Li nodded and stood in the sky. He clasped his hands behind his back and looked down at Qi Ming, “In these three days, I have already informed all the Grand Elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect about you.”

“Now.”

“There are six Grand Elders who are interested in taking you as their disciple.”

“You can choose one of them to become his disciple.”

Of the six Grand Elders, Qi Ming knew four of them.

Patriarch Wuyan, Daoist Wuchen, Granny Jin Yun, and Daoist Purple Firmament were the ones he knew. There were also two Grand Elders that he was not familiar with. They were a white-haired elder in a Daoist robe and a sexy and alluring woman.

Of course, although the beautiful woman looked young and sexy on the surface, in fact, she was probably old enough to be Qi Ming’s great-grandmother.

She could be even older than that.

“Choose.” Yang Li said.

Qi Ming looked at the six Grand Elders in front of him who did not speak. He was a little conflicted because he did not know anything about these six Grand Elders. He did not know what the situation was, and he really did not know who to choose.

Therefore, he had to choose himself.

Thinking of this, with a thought, Qi Ming wanted to hide his hands in his sleeves. He wanted to secretly use Heavenly Observation and Future Sight to deduce the background of the six Grand Elders.

Qi Ming was really very bold to dare to use these two mystic technique divine powers under such circumstances.

He had just used it, but he felt as if a calamity was about to arrive. It was as if the heavens were collapsing and all kinds of supreme calamities were about to descend.

Without any hesitation, Qi Ming immediately cut off his deduction and divine power.

His face turned pale from the backlash.

“Qi Ming, what’s wrong with you?” Yang Li frowned.

“Sect… Sect Master, I’m fine.” Qi Ming took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in his heart as he replied softly.

The six Grand Elders’ cultivation levels were too high.

They were still alive in this world. This was not like the Yinglong Grotto-heaven. They were only blessed lands. Moreover, the Ancient Demon Emperor was already dead. Therefore, it was impossible for Qi Ming to deduce the background and identity of the six Grand Elders with his cultivation. He might even face a calamity. The Purity Golden Body would probably not be able to withstand the backlash.

“Have you thought it through?” Yang Li asked.

“I’ve thought about it.” Qi Ming replied.

“Who will you choose?” Yang Li asked again.

“I choose…”

“Stop!”

Qi Ming had not finished speaking when he was suddenly interrupted. Moreover, this voice appeared very suddenly. There was no sign, but it seemed to have come from the sky..
