the vortex.Immediately following, the noodle maker turned pale with fear and frantically retreated backwards. It was clear he had sensed the terror of the two whirlpools and wanted to avoid them as m...At this very moment, Luo Xin resorted to using a hypnotic technique on Jiang Yun in an attempt to extract information from him!

Soul-seducing arts, similar to soul searching, but the means are much gentler and will not cause any harm to the souls of living beings.

Although Jiang Yun's cultivation was suppressed, his powerful soul was something Luo Xin couldn't compare to. His illusionary technique had no effect on Jiang Yun at all!

However, Jiang Yun naturally wouldn't expose him. He pretended to be lost in thought, with vacant eyes, and said word by word: "I don't know, my daily task is to cultivate and take care of the plants!"

Luo Xin kept asking several questions, but in the end, he couldn't get any useful information from Jiang Yun. He could only snort angrily and ignore Jiang Yun, leaving with the seven people who were still held in his hands.

As for Jiang Yun, he was sent back to Nanyu Ruo's residence by another disciple of the Tiāolòu Sect.

……

There is an octagonal pavilion about ten thousand zhang away from the mountain peak where the sun sets.

Inside the gazebo stood a tall middle-aged man with white temples. He held his hands behind his back and seemed to be gazing at the distant scenery.

A moment later, accompanied by a gust of wind, eight figures appeared before him. Leading the way was Luo Xin!

At this moment, Losin's face was flushed red, his whole body swaying like he was drunk, unable to stand steady.

But even so, upon seeing the man, he still hurriedly took a deep breath, forcing his body to stabilize. He bowed deeply to the man with respect and said, "Grandfather, I have brought all seven people here."

The man glanced at Luo Xin faintly, a coldness in his eyes. He said coldly, "You even went through so much trouble to get here, then even if the ancestor was willing to see you, you wouldn't be able to reach him!"

Losin lowered her head, not daring to speak.

The man retracted his gaze and continued to stare into the distance, "How is it progressing in Nanyun"

Luo Xinkun smiled and shook his head. "Grandpa, everything was supposed to be fine this time, but..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man waved his hand and interrupted, "I don't want to hear the reasons, I just want the result!"

"This is your last chance. If you still can't satisfy me, don't blame Grandpa for being ruthless!"

"Yes!" Losin nodded eagerly, but a sinister glint flickered in his lowered face.

The man glanced at Luo Xin once more before turning his gaze to the seven people behind him. "These are the seven who were eliminated"

"Yes!"

At such a height, even the spirit realm expert Luo Xin found it extremely difficult to reach here, let alone seven people. They had long since passed out.

The man nodded and said, "Alright, you may go now!"

"Yes!"

After respectfully bowing to the man, Luo Xin then retreated.

And that man, with a sweeping of his sleeve, unleashed a whirlwind. It swept up the seven men, including himself, and charged toward the peak of Tianluoshan mountain.

At the peak, the old man with a face tinged with a faint golden hue remained seated cross-legged upon the circular platform, his eyes closed tight. He appeared oblivious to the arrival of the young man.

The man stood under the platform and, bowing to the elder, said, “Master, I have brought the person!”

The elder only then nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the man immediately gently placed the seven unconscious individuals behind him onto the platform. After bowing respectfully to the elder, he turned and left.

With the man's departure, the old man finally opened his eyes and gently raised his hand.

Although it was just a simple raising of his hand, for the old man it seemed as if he had exhausted all his strength.

The palm's movement was extremely slow, but if you looked closely, you could see that his palm seemed illusory, as if it didn't exist in this world.

And just like that, the palm finally gently landed upon the circular platform beneath.

"Bang!"

With a clap of his palm, the circular platform trembled slightly, and then began to rotate slowly.

And within this turning, from the edge of the platform, nine beams of light of various colors gradually rose!

Nine rays of light, each a hundred zhang high, converged in the air, merging into a shimmering net of nine colors.

Then, the light net slowly descended until it enveloped the seven people, like a blanket of light covering them.

Next, the nine-colored glow seemed to come alive and seep into the bodies of these seven people. As a result, their bodies gradually began to become transparent.

...to the point where one could clearly see their flesh, organs, bones, and even meridians and blood vessels!

That nine-color radiance continuously wriggled rapidly within their bodies, giving people the feeling that it seemed to be searching for something.

Under the weaving of these nine-colored lights, the bodies of the seven people gradually faded, becoming fainter and fainter, until they completely disappeared without a trace, leaving not even the slightest hint as if they had never existed in this world.

As the seven bodies vanished, the nine-colored radiance gradually dimmed and returned to the circular platform.

And that pale golden old man's mouth let out a long breath, his aged face showing a trace of weariness. He shook his head gently and said, "Still no!"

Obviously, doing such a thing is also a considerable burden for him.

But the old man soon frowned slightly and said, “No, I remember that during the first test, three out of a hundred people failed.”

"Now two of the three have been confirmed not to be who I'm looking for, so why isn't the last one here"

Could it be that something has changed within him

After he finished speaking, the elder gave his hand a flick. A painting suddenly appeared before him. Inside the painting was a man with his eyes closed in deep thought—it was Jiang Yun!

Meanwhile, at the plaza a thousand meters high on Tiansuo Mountain, it also began to tremble slightly.

But this trembling lasted for less than ten breaths before falling silent again. The elder on the mountaintop gazed at Jiang Yun in the painting and murmured to himself, "His physical strength is exceptionally powerful. It's indeed possible. Let me observe him further."

Of course, Ginger Cloud was completely unaware of all this.

Now that he has successfully passed this first check, it means that for the next period of time, he can continue to receive the supply of medicinal pills and no longer need to worry about other things.

But now he is no longer satisfied with these pills, so he is sitting there thinking about how to obtain a large amount of spirit stones and pills!

It's a pity that in the end, he still couldn't come up with a good solution. After all, he couldn't get out of this mountain pass.

Faced with no other choice, Ginger Cloud could only temporarily abandon this idea.

But the next day, he received another 100 pills of Tongmai Dan.

Although this time there were no large quantities of spirit stones to have him imprint the meridian-opening pills, after swallowing them, Jiang Yun once again clearly felt a tremor in his internal fingers.

Such a sway, for him, was also like a huge temptation, making the idea he had just given up yesterday once again stir within him.

"Nan girl, besides refining and selling pills, is there really no other way to obtain spirit stones and medicinal pills"

As for Jiang Yun's situation, although Nanyun Ru already had some understanding, she was helpless after all, as she was just a Pill Refiner at the Cave Heaven Realm.

Looking at Jiang Yun, Nanyun sighed and said, "If only I could go to Master's residence."

"Though Master is gone, there should be some high-grade elixirs left behind that could help you in a pinch!"
