Chapter 28: Participate in the Trial
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the blink of an eye, another two months had passed!
“I’ve finally broken through!”
Zhou Yun sat cross-legged on top of the jade stone. The light in his eyes was even brighter than before.
He had been cultivating all the time for the past two months, and he had finally broken through before the inner sect trial!
Moreover, he had also improved and perfected his cultivation technique in all aspects, completely bringing out all the potential of the introductory cultivation technique.
“My current strength has made a huge step compared to two months ago. If I were to deal with myself two months ago, I wouldn’t need to rely on sword intent. I would only need a casual punch.”
Zhou Yun jumped down from the jade stone and casually twisted his body. His body immediately made a crackling sound, like beans being fried.
Zhou Yun clenched his fist as he felt the power in his body. The flame flickered in his eyes. He believed that even if he were to encounter a cultivator of the foundation establishment stage, he would be able to confront him.
“However, it seems that I’ve not just got one who’s upset by me, but a group of them!” Zhou Yun smacked his forehead.
At his current level, he might be able to fight against one of them, but he would still need to run for his life if he had to confront a bunch of them.
“This won’t do it. I might as well come up with other strategies!”
“In the next month, I will still have to cultivate my swordsmanship. Only by cultivating advanced techniques can I fight above my level.”
Zhou Yun, who had defeated Qin Xiu with one blow of his sword intent, had a deep understanding of this.
“After that, I’ll need all kinds of pills. This can be refined slowly, so there’s no rush.””
“But the only offensive spells I’ve learned are sword techniques, and I still need something with great destructive power!”
“Right, I can buy spiritual weapons! I’ve already saved up more than twenty spiritual stones during these two months of cultivation. I should be able to buy a few spiritual weapons, right?”
After thinking through all this, Zhou Yun immediately set off for the Treasure Pavilion.
On the way to the Treasure Pavilion, many female disciples of Spirit Valley came up to greet him.
“Hello, Senior Brother Zhou Yun. I would like to ask you a question regarding your cultivation!” A female disciple with two ponytails asked Zhou Yun.
Zhou Yun was a little speechless. As a glory disciple of the sect, he had to set an example for other disciples, so he had to answer her question.
However, as they chatted, the female disciple started to talk about other things.
As the conversation went on, the other female disciples also gathered toward them.
“Senior Brother Zhou Yun, I’d like to ask you about the pills.”
“Senior Brother Zhou Yun, do you have a cultivation companion?”
“Senior Brother Zhou Yun, how do you maintain your skin? It looks so smooth!” A coquettish woman immediately reached out to touch Zhou Yun all over.
“Really? I want to touch it too!”
“Me too!”
“Wow, it’s really smooth!”
In an instant, dozens of female disciples came forward, wanting to touch Zhou Yun’s skin.
The crowd looked at Zhou Yun, who was surrounded by the female disciples and gritted their teeth in jealousy.
“He’s nothing more than a pill refiner. What’s the big deal?”
“He just looks good and nothing more!”
“He’s just…”
When the male disciples saw their favorite female disciples surrounding Zhou Yun and touching him all over, they all glared at Zhou Yun fiercely as if they wanted to eat him alive.
Zhou Yun was surrounded by these female disciples and could not move. He could only blink his eyes at the male disciples nearby as a distress signal.
A tall young man was the first to see Zhou Yun’s eyes and immediately became angry. “Zhou Yun just gave me one of those challenge-me looks.”
“I saw it too. Look at him. I want to beat him up.”
“This is outrageous. Isn’t he just being surrounded by a few dozen fairies? What is he so proud of?”
“But why do I detect a hint of pain in Zhou Yun’s eyes? He seems to be asking for help?”
“Pain? Ask for help? Do you feel pain when you’re surrounded and touched by dozens of fairies? Will you ask for help?”
“That’s right. Use your brain. How can he possibly feel any pain? I’m quite sure he’s trying to provoke us.”
“Folks, I can’t take it anymore. What should I do?”
“Go, let’s beat him up!”
“Yeah, smack him up!”
In an instant, the hundreds of outer sect disciples present were in a frenzy. They rolled up their sleeves and walked toward Zhou Yun in an aggressive manner.
After Zhou Yun had asked for help many times, he saw that the people nearby were finally coming over. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief. However, when he looked again, he saw that hundreds of people were all coming over. They were all rubbing their fists and wiping their palms. Their faces were full of anger and sneers. As he saw it, they looked nothing like they were coming to help him.
Zhou Yun’s eyelids twitched violently. When he saw the people surrounding him, he hurriedly shouted into the sky, “The Grand Elder is here!”
In an instant, everyone present stopped what they were doing and immediately saluted the Grand Elder without hesitation.
“Your majesty, Grand Elder!”
Then everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look up. However, after waiting for a long time, they still didn’t hear the Grand elder’s voice.
Some of the bolder disciples raised their heads and looked up.
“The Grand Elder is not here. Who shouted just now?”
“It must be Zhou Yun. I can tell from his voice!”
Everyone immediately realized that they had been tricked. They quickly looked in Zhou Yun’s direction, but they realized that he had already disappeared.
Soon Zhou Yun arrived at the Treasure Pavilion.
Then he immediately asked, “Sir, do you have a talisman that can kill a foundation establishment stage cultivator in one go? A one-time spiritual weapon will do!”
“Oh right, I also need a defensive talisman or defensive magical equipment that can defend against foundation establishment stage cultivators!”
The Treasure Pavilion’s owner was instantly stunned.
“Are you serious? You are just at the Qi cultivation stage. Why do you keep asking about things that can kill foundation establishment stage cultivators? Are you out of your mind?”
Hearing the boss’s words, Zhou Yun smiled bitterly. “Well, I’ve made a lot of enemies recently. I want to buy something powerful to protect myself!”
If it wasn’t for that group of foundation establishment stage inner sect disciples being dissatisfied with him, he wouldn’t need to buy these.
When the store owner heard this, he frowned. Normally, one couldn’t buy a foundation establishment stage weapon before reaching the stage. However, because Zhou Yun was a glory disciple, he had special privileges in this area. Moreover, he more or less knew about the inner sect trial test.
In the end, the store owner thought for a while before taking out the items and even giving Zhou Yun a 40% discount.
Zhou Yun took these two items out of the door. One was a defensive spiritual weapon while the other was an offensive spiritual weapon.
“It’s a good thing you gave me a 40% discount, or I could only buy one piece!”
After Zhou Yun finished shopping, he suddenly realized that he had no money again. He felt a little disappointed. He wanted to buy two more items, but he didn’t have enough money because he didn’t prepare enough.
After buying the items, Zhou Yun returned to his cave and started cultivating.
A month passed by very quickly. During this process, Zhou Yun refined quite a number of pills and exchanged them for quite a number of resources.
“The trial test for inner disciples of Spirit Valley has begun. Disciples who are participating in the trial test, please hurry to the back mountain. Late arrival is not permitted!”
A voice resounded throughout the entire Spirit Valley. As soon as the voice fell, a beautiful figure flashed into the sky. Zhou Yun was also flying in the back mountain of Spirit Valley on a red light.
