Chapter 36: I Want To Make A Report, He Cheated!

At the foot of the mountain where the Tianxuan sect resided.

Only half a day remains for the seven-day trial, and of the twenty disciples who initially participated, eighteen are now at the foot of the mountain.

These disciples all descended from the mountain with demon cores to complete the trial. However, the scattered group of disciples who initially participated in the trial has now divided into three smaller groups.

One group is led by Yun Lingshuang, consisting of six members. Another is led by Chu Zidan, with five members, and the remaining is a small group of disciples who have banded together for safety.

Among these eighteen disciples, the only ones missing are Ye Xiyun and Yu Lanxin.

"Senior Brother, there's not much time left. Could those two be in danger in the wilderness?" Yun Lingshuang, dressed in white, looking pristine and untarnished, asked with concern.

"We have two and a half hours left," Xuan Yi said as he looked at the time. "The trial hasn't ended until the time is up."

"It seems like Senior Brother Yun is quite concerned about those two who haven't arrived yet," Chu Zidan remarked. "Among the eighteen of us here, the missing ones are Senior Sister Yu Lanxin with High Grade Water attribute spiritual roots and Ye Xiyun with Low Grade Five Elements Spiritual Roots. Without any help, it might be difficult for them to kill a low-level demonic beast."

"Is that so?" Yun Lingshuang's mouth twitched. Yu Lanxin and Ye Xiyun having trouble killing demonic beasts? Damn it, those two stole the demon cores from him back then. In theory, they should have completed the trial and come down long ago. But they haven't arrived yet? Could it be that they encountered some danger?

Like– running into a second-level demonic beast, and both of them getting eaten by it?

Yun Lingshuang couldn't help but think dark thoughts.

Suddenly, several colorful streaks of light appeared in the distant sky. The disciples of Tianxuan Sect and the prospective disciples who had not yet joined the sect all raised their heads to look in that direction. They saw seven figures flying on swords, passing through the mountains and clouds with spiritual energy enveloping their bodies, leaving behind streams of spiritual energy in the air.

These seven people were none other than the Sect Master Yun Xiao and six elders of Tianxuan Sect.

When everyone saw this scene, their eyes lit up, and their hearts were filled with excitement. The disciples of Tianxuan Sect, including Xuan Yi and others, immediately formed hand seals and bowed slightly to greet their Sect Master and the elders, saying, "Disciples pay their respects to the Sect Master and the elders!"

The seven figures descended gracefully from the sky, landing steadily in front of everyone.

The leader, Yun Xiao, wore a white Daoist robe with long flowing beard, giving him the appearance of an immortal despite his relatively young age in cultivation terms.

The second elder, Lian Zhengming, wore a green robe and appeared slightly younger than Yun Xiao. However, he exuded a cold and aloof aura. Wrapped around his waist was a several-meter-long green snake. The snake coiled around his waist and extended its head out from behind his left shoulder, resting its head on his left shoulder. It was a chilling sight, but Lian Zhengming seemed completely unbothered.

The third elder, Yan Weile, was skilled in refining weapons. He was relatively short, standing at only 1.6 meters tall, with his right arm noticeably thicker than his left, giving him a sturdy appearance.

The fourth elder, Song Zhiming, was a master of body refinement and the tallest among the seven, standing at nearly two meters. Despite his height, he didn't have an exaggerated build, but if he locked onto someone, it gave off a feeling of being stared down by a wild beast.

The fifth elder, the beautiful Piao Yun, was the master of Senior Sister Bing Li, a beloved figure among the disciples of Tianxuan Sect. She was a grandmaster of alchemy, and almost all of the high-grade elixirs in Tianxuan Sect were crafted by her. Although her cultivation level was not very high among the seven, many disciples liked to follow her because they didn't have to worry about the supply of elixirs when they were with her.

The sixth elder, Fu Yijian, excelled in drawing symbols and had made significant contributions in the field of rune arrays. He was responsible for the recruitment and assignment of outer disciples.

As for the seventh elder, Liu Muyun, she specialized in studying formation arrays. Although she usually had a low profile and didn't like to meddle in affairs, almost all of Tianxuan Sect's formation arrays were arranged by her.

The seven elders, each with their unique expertise in alchemy, refining, beast taming, rune arrays, body refinement, and swordsmanship, formed a perfect combination that made Tianxuan Sect's sect structure exceptionally well-rounded, even surpassing some higher-ranked sects.

According to rumors, the seven elders had all been disciples of a talented wandering cultivator in their early years. Each of them had learned one of the cultivator's techniques, which eventually led to the legendary formation of the seven founding disciples of Tianxuan Sect.

"This time, have all the newly admitted disciples arrived?" Sect Master Yun Xiao looked at the disciples and asked.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, we are still missing two," Xuan Yi replied.

"How much time is left until the trial ends?" Sect Master Yun Xiao inquired.

Xuan Yi turned his head to check the burning incense and replied, "Reporting to the Sect Master, there are only two hours left."

"Very well, let's..." Sect Master Yun Xiao was about to speak but suddenly paused, his gaze shifting towards the distance. Seeing the Sect Master's reaction, everyone turned their eyes in the same direction, where they saw a commotion of dust and noise as if a military unit was charging towards them. Although they couldn't discern the exact nature of the approaching entity yet, the spectacle seemed quite significant.

Soon, they could make out the outline of a gigantic wild boar, towering like a small mountain, and on its back were two individuals.

Behind the wild boar, seven piglets stood in a row, followed closely by a group of silver-armed ape demons. What on earth was going on?

The disciples were left dumbfounded.

"We came here to kill demonic beasts for their cores to complete the mission, and you're bringing them here live for a real-time hunt? But this is too exaggerated, isn't it?"

While everyone was in shock, they suddenly heard an excited voice cry out, "Sect Master, elders, I want to make a report! He's cheating!"
