C18 Cloud Maple Gate

The Divine Lands were vast and boundless. Outside of the Great Jin Dynasty, there were many mountains and hills. Not only were there endless kinds of wild beasts and birds of prey, there were also countless sects and sects of immortals.

The Cloud Mountain was located in the southern part of the Great Jin Dynasty. The mountaintop was shrouded in clouds all year round. It was extremely unique.

According to the legends, in the center of the Cloud Mountain Range, was the location of the Immortal Path Sect and the Cloud Maple Sect.

However, there were many commoners who wanted to come here in search of immortality, but they all failed. Instead, they encountered a few vicious beasts that almost died in the jaws of death.

Over time, not many commoners came here to search for the Yun Feng Sect.

In reality, the Yun Feng Sect was indeed located in the middle of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, but it was covered by a large illusion formation. Ordinary people were simply unable to find it, and within the illusion formation, countless pavilions, main hall, and many others had already been built.

Inside the illusion formation was another formation called the Fog Confinement Heaven Formation. It was said to have the power to kill Nascent Soul cultivators, something the smaller sects didn't have. The Fog Concealment Heavenly Array alone was enough to make the Cloud Maple Sect one of the top sects among the intermediate cultivation sects.

Within the Cloud Mountain Range, three figures were speeding along. Judging from their appearances, they were extremely young, around thirteen or fourteen years old. They were Fang Yi and the other two.

"I said, we shouldn't have come into the mountain so early. We should have stayed in the inn outside for a few days." The little fatty said unhappily.

"Hmph, we've come here to cultivate our skills, not to sightsee. If you don't want to come, you can go back. No one is forcing you to come here anyway." Mu Linger snorted coldly.

"After a while, we will arrive at the Yunfeng Sect. You must know that the illusion array of the Yunfeng Sect will only open once a year when disciples are accepted. If we miss it, we will have to wait another year." Fang Yi had also gathered quite a bit of information along the way.

On the way, with the help of the praying mat, Fang Yi had broken through to the early third level of the Qi Refining stage. What surprised Fang Yi the most was that he could already barely control the flying sword, even though he could only control it once to launch an attack.

As for Mu Linger and Little Fatso, they had both reached the peak of the first level of Qi Refining and could break through to the second level at any time. The speed of their progress had also greatly surprised Fang Yi.

After knowing that the little fatty did not know any kind of magic, Fang Yi would teach the little fatty the five elements magic during the night break and cultivate with him. Otherwise, the little fatty would not have been able to reach the peak of the first level of Qi Refining.

"I didn't sleep well all the way." The little fatty muttered softly.

When the three of them arrived at the Yun Feng Gate, just as noon arrived, the three of them saw the two ancient words' Yun Feng Gate 'on the tall and lofty signboard in front of them, their hearts were filled with joy.

Behind the signboard, there were countless houses. Each of them was arranged in an orderly manner, clearly having been meticulously designed.

From far away, one could see the peaks of mountains that reached into the clouds. The clouds surrounded the peaks of the mountains, and one could not see the details, but on the top of the most central peak, one could vaguely see a great hall. Although it was covered by the clouds, but from time to time there would be flashes of seven colors that were extremely enchanting, and the surrounding peaks seemed to form a stone bridge that went through the clouds, connecting them to the main hall at the center of the mountain.

"Are the three of you here to participate in this year's entrance examination?"

Just as the three of them were captivated by the sight in front of them, a bright ray of light came from the top of a mountain. Then, a middle-aged man wearing a blue robe with a purple cloud on his chest asked the three of them as he put away his flying sword.

"Yes, the three of us have traveled for more than three months just to participate in the entrance examination to enter the Yunfeng Sect."

Fang Yi had originally wanted to take out the letter from old man Fang, but upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, it seemed that he wanted to enter the Yunfeng Sect and needed to undergo an examination.

To be born and live required approval. If he couldn't even pass this small test, wouldn't he lose face for his grandfather? Fang Yi thought.

The middle-aged man's gaze swept across them before looking at Fang Yi again. "Not bad. You've reached the 3rd level of Qi Refining at such a young age, but you still need to participate in the exam. Everything will be decided by the exam."

"Senior, can you let me have a meal before we start? I've been on the road for a long time, and I'm starving." The little fatty hurriedly asked. For food, it was even more important than joining the Yun Feng Sect.

"Well, of course." The middle-aged man could not help but be surprised for a moment. He did not expect that someone would ask him such a question. However, when he saw the little fatty's appearance, he felt relieved.

If he wasn't greedy for food, he wouldn't have been as fat as a ball. Seeing his narrow eyes almost squished to nothingness by the fat on his face, the middle-aged man muttered in his heart.

"The three of you are the first to arrive at the Yunfeng Gate, so you can choose any house you want to use as a temporary resting place. As for food and drinks, someone will bring them to you on time." "In half a month's time, the illusion array would once again open, and the disciple recruitment would stop. At that time, the assessment would officially begin." The middle-aged man slowly said as he led the three of them to the front of a house.

Not long after the three people chose a room, a few children came in from outside the signboard. Most of them were between ten to eighteen years old, and when night fell, about fifty or sixty people came. This was only the first day the Yunfeng Sect accepted disciples.

These people were mostly the younger generation disciples of the Cultivator Clans near the Cloud Mountain Range in the Great Jin Dynasty. Of course, there were also some who had traveled a thousand miles to gain fame, but only in a small number.

For people like Fang Yi and the other two who weren't disciples of a cultivator clan, other than them, there wasn't even a single person.

These later people stood together in groups of twos and threes, with the members of their families as the core, listening to the middle-aged man's narration.

The little fatty originally wanted to go up and chat with these people, but his face was so hot that it seemed cold. He was asking for trouble, and no one was willing to pay any attention to him, a rogue cultivator.

"A bunch of arrogant fellows. Hmph, are you trying to make a fool out of yourself?" When Mu Linger saw the little fatty walking over with a dejected expression, she couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Ling'er, we're here to train in the Dao of the Heavens, not to stir up trouble. There's still half a month to go, so let's focus on our cultivation, and the two of you are already at the peak of the 1st level of Refinement. If you work hard, you might break through to the 2nd level in the next half month, so don't waste time, especially you, Little Fatty. Don't just focus on eating all day. If you can't pass the examination, then I won't be able to help you."

Fang Yi wasn't too concerned about this. After chatting with Mu Linger and the little fatty for a while, he returned to his room and started to adjust his breathing to cultivate.
