What are the names of the three of you?

" Ling Yi!" Ling Yi's words were concise and to the point, his face showing neither joy nor sorrow, devoid of any expression.

"My name is Lin Jingyu, and this is Zhang Xiaofan." Zhang Xiaofan remained silent, so Lin Jingyu had to introduce him.

"I am Tian Buyi, the head of the Big Bamboo Peak of the Qingyun Sect. Please recount this matter in detail."

Ling Yi didn't want to talk, Zhang Xiaofan was bad at speaking, so Lin Jingyu had to step forward and recount what had happened.

However, Lin Jingyu concealed some things, such as the Bloodthirsty Bead and the Divine Monk Puzhi. He only said that the two mysterious people were fighting in Grass Temple Village, and they were affected and fainted.

"When the three of us woke up, this was the scene that greeted us."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan burst into tears again, and Lin Jingyu, influenced by him, also had tears welling up in her eyes. Only Ling Yi remained Changes.

Tian Buyi paused for a moment on Ling Yi, frowned, and asked, "Why can't I see any sadness in you?"

"Being heartbroken is useless!" Ling Yi uttered four words.

Tian Buyi nodded. He admired the young man's steady and mature character.

"Indeed, being sad is useless. The Qingyun Sect will investigate the matter of Grass Temple Village thoroughly and give you an explanation in the future. Now, only the three of you are left to survive. If that demon returns, I'm afraid you will not be able to protect yourselves."

"Come back to the Qingyun Sect with me first, and we'll make further plans then."

After saying that, Tian Buyi n't care whether the three agreed or not. He rolled up his sleeves, took the three of them and soared into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Only Tian Buyi's voice echoed from afar, "After you have handled this properly, return to the Qingyun Sect and report to the Sect Leader."

"Yes, Uncle-Master!"

Two Qingyun Sect disciples clasped their hands in a salute to the air.

Not long after Tian Buyi left with Ling Yi and the other two, a boy dressed in a modern T-shirt and jeans, carrying a backpack, appeared outside Grass Temple Village.

Just as he was wandering around and looking at Grass Temple Village, he was spotted by two Qingyun Sect disciples who had just finished disposing of the villagers' corpses.

"Who are you? Why are you dressed so strangely?" one of them asked.

"Ah? Oh, my name is Zheng Hai, and I come from the Far East. I've heard that the Qingyun Sect Qingyun Sect the leader of the righteous path, so I plan to go there to become a disciple, learn immortal techniques, and fight demons to protect the righteous path."

The two Qingyun Sect disciples exchanged a glance, and one of them Human Dao, "We're just about to return to the Qingyun Sect. We can take you back, but whether you can join the Qingyun Sect depends on yourself."

"Thank you, thank you!" Zheng Hai said, taking out two Little Jin from the backpack behind him.

"I can't let you two senior brothers work for nothing. Here's a small worldly gift; please accept it. If you two senior brothers refuse, I really won't be able to trouble you."

Is gold useful to cultivators? The answer is yes.

It is especially useful for the Qingyun Sect disciples at the Jade Purity Realm Fourth Level Object Manipulation Realm.

Every year, these disciples would go down the mountain for training, the duration of which varied, ranging from a month to half a year.

The role of money becomes apparent during the training process.

In the Jade Dynasty World, cultivators need to eat before reaching the Supreme Purity Realm.

Only those who reach the Supreme Purity Realm or above no longer need to eat.

In the original novel, Zhang Xiaofan became a cook after entering Big Bamboo Peak. His daily work was to cook for his the Final Master, mistress, and fellow disciples, and that was the reason for his job.

Although Tian Buyi and Su Ru had already reached the Supreme Purity Realm, they still ate with their disciples every time due to their long-standing habits.

As a result, the atmosphere at Big Bamboo Peak is very good; it's more like a big family, and the relationships between the fellow disciples are extremely harmonious.

Many people believe that the cultivators in the Jade Dynasty World are much weaker and less powerful compared to those in other cultivation worlds.

That's not actually the case. Different worlds have different Body Refining and rules, so there's no way to compare them.

Let's get back to the main topic!

The two gold bars had an immediate effect, not because the two Qingyun Sect disciples were greedy.

Instead, Zheng Hai was clearly a worldly-wise person. His words made the two Qingyun Sect disciples feel as if they had committed some terrible crime if they didn't accept his offer.

Let's not discuss how Zheng Hai got to the Qingyun Sect.

Tian Buyi, along with Ling Yi and the other two, arrived at the Qingyun Sect in just over ten minutes and headed straight for Big Bamboo Peak.

Ling Yi didn't know how Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu during this Cloud Soaring and Mist Riding, but he didn't have a very good experience.

Tian Buyi focused on flying, and he was rushing all the way at an extremely fast speed, completely forgetting whether the three of them, ordinary people, could withstand it.

While fixing his Gale hair, Ling Yi secretly wondered how Tian Buyi, a clueless straight man who didn't know how to take care of people, managed to win over Su Ru.

Tian Buyi tossed the three people directly in front of Su Ru and Voice Transmission, "I'm going to Tongtian Peak. You take these three to familiarize themselves with Big Bamboo Peak. From now on, these three will be disciples of Big Bamboo Peak. We'll discuss other matters when I return."

After saying that, Tian Buyi hurriedly flew away again.

Su Ru gave a wry smile and said helplessly, "This impatience of mine hasn't changed at all after all these years."

"There's no need to be nervous. Just make yourself at home. It's noon now, so come with me for lunch first."

Su Ru's gentle smile eased Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu's initial tension.

Ling Yi remained silent, showing no expression whatsoever.

He was considering something else: should he activate another aura? The Bad Luck Aura could only bring misfortune to those who were hostile to him, but it did not help his strength in the slightest.

Do we have to actively cultivate ourselves?

Ling Yi has traveled through so many worlds, when has he ever seriously cultivated? For a Protagonist who can use countless cheat codes, cultivation is simply a joke.

But what kind of halo should we activate?

There were simply too many choices, Ling Yi couldn't decide for the time being. The key issue was that Ling Yi's requirements were too high.

He wanted some Body Refining, but didn't want it to be too strenuous.

If the other Protagonist knew about Ling Yi's troubles, they would probably all come and beat him to a pulp.

Which Protagonist is like him, able to choose any kind of cheat-like effects at will? He's simply ungrateful for his good fortune.

By the time they arrived at the canteen, Su Ru had already learned all the information from Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu.

Ling Yi continued to choose his halo, but to outsiders, Ling Yi appeared to be taciturn and aloof.

"Fine, this will do!"

Ling Yi quickly selected a " Passive Amplification Aura," which amplifies cultivation level, cultivation speed, and skill power... Level 1 amplifies by 10 times, Level 2 amplifies by 100 times, and Ling Yi directly upgraded it to Level 2.

Just then, Ling Yi felt someone push him. He turned around and saw Lin Jingyu giving him a meaningful look.

"What's wrong?" Ling Yi asked.

"Senior has something to ask you." Lin Jingyu glanced in Su Ru's direction and said softly.

Ling Yi then realized that he had been so focused that he had completely ignored the people around him.

He stood up abruptly and said sincerely to Su Ru, "Please don't be offended, senior. I was thinking about some things and neglected the outside world."

"It's alright. I've heard you come from the far west. I wonder which part of the far west you are? Perhaps I've heard something about it."

"The far west, Swamp Forest," Ling Yi said, having already given this explanation.

Su Ru is an extremely shrewd person. If she can't explain herself back then, she'll likely be the subject of much suspicion.

"Are you talking about a deathly place with thousands of White Bone?" Su Ru asked, somewhat surprised.

"Exactly."

"I've heard that the Swamp Forest was once a land rich in resources, home to many family-based Immortal Gate, among which were many top experts."

After a pause, Su Ru said meaningfully, "But a hundred years ago, a sudden change occurred. Overnight, the entire Swamp Forest was filled with Qi of Blood Baleful Energy, and all living beings Miejue. It is said that this was caused by demonic cultivators practicing demonic arts."

"What you may not know, senior, is that the culprit behind the incident back then was the Bloodthirsty Bead!"

"What?"

Su Ru suddenly stood up, looked at Ling Yi seriously, and asked, "Is what you said true?"

Ling Yi looked at Zhang Xiaofan and said, "Give the Bloodthirsty Bead you have to the senior."

Zhang Xiaofan nodded and took out the Bloodthirsty Bead.

Su Ru raised her hand and grabbed, and the Bloodthirsty Bead flew into her hand automatically.

At this moment, Su Ru was on high alert, her expression solemn, but after a moment, she relaxed.

"Fortunately, it has a strong Buddhist aura, and a high-ranking monk used his great power to neutralize most of its malevolent energy. Otherwise, if this Bloodthirsty Bead were to be born, it would likely cause another massacre."

"You must never tell anyone about this, do you hear me?" Su Ru said to Song Daren and the other disciples with a rare cold expression.

"Yes, Master's wife!"

" Ling Yi, come with me."

After Su Ru finished speaking, she turned and walked out, and Ling Yi immediately followed.

After the two left, only a group of people remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Su Ru led Ling Yi to a mountain peak, then looked at Ling Yi seriously and asked, "You should be a survivor of the Swamp Forest back then. Could you tell me the details of what happened back then?"

"I don't know much. At that time, my cultivation level was roughly at the Pinnacle the Upper Purity Realm." Ling Yi thought for a moment and began to organize his thoughts to make up a story.

Since the Swamp Forest incident is impossible to verify, as long as it can be explained Karma with other events, it doesn't matter what the explanation is.

"Back then, members of the Demonic Cult Sect Refinement the Bloodthirsty Bead Bloodthirsty Bead, causing its power to go berserk. Its Qi of Blood Baleful Energy spread for thousands of miles, and anyone who came into contact with it would instantly turn into White Bone, their flesh and soul being devoured by the Bloodthirsty Bead."

Ling Yi then repeated what he had told Zhang Xiaofan and the others before.

"So, you're over a hundred years old now?"

"One hundred and thirteen years old, but if we only look at bone age, he is only thirteen years old at present."

Su Ru nodded, clicking her tongue in amazement, "That Reincarnation Pill is truly miraculous. If the method of refining it could be passed down, it would probably be wildly sought after. Don't tell anyone else about this."

"Yes, senior. I understand."

After pondering for a moment, Su Ru asked, "You should know who committed the Grass Temple Village massacre, right?"

" The Divine Monk Puzhi!" Ling Yi nodded and said.

"I see. Did Zhang Xiaofan and the others know?"

Ling Yi nodded again.

"It's those two children who suffer."

" Xiaofan Fan cultivated the Great Brahman Prajna."

"This is indeed a bit troublesome!"
