This is the true immortal of the Taoist sect.

After a brief demonstration, Li Daoxuan naturally advanced to the next round.

Of the hundreds of thousands of people who participated in the testing, only tens of thousands passed the first round, and only a little over two hundred made it to the final round.

These two hundred-plus people will eventually enter a training ground where everyone's spirit and will will be projected into the arena for a fierce battle.

Only the thirty survivors will be selected by the major peaks to become inner disciples.

The rest will be assigned to halls beneath the main peaks to become outer disciples.

The most obvious difference between the inner and outer gates is the location of residence.

Inner disciples can enter the Blessed Land of Spiritual Abundance and cultivate on the seven main peaks where spiritual energy is most abundant.

Meanwhile, the outer disciples could only stay in the temple and hone their skills little by little.

The differences between them were determined from the very beginning.

Li Daoxuan planned to take a good look at the core secrets of the Qingyun Sword Sect, and of course, he wanted to try his best to stay in the inner sect.

Therefore, he will try his best to control his ranking and stay in the top 30.

This is not an easy task, because in addition to those who have made it to the final round through various stages, people recommended by branch sects and affiliated sects from various regions will directly participate in the final round.

These people are definitely formidable rivals.

Of course, what Li Daoxuan found difficult was not whether he could pass the test, but how to perfectly perform the role so that he could pass without attracting too much attention.

Although all the disciples who entered the trial are of equal strength, those disciples from the Qingyun Sword Sect's branch sects are definitely far superior in swordsmanship skills.

Therefore, they will take up the vast majority of these thirty spots.

Soon, the final round will begin.

But to Li Daoxuan's surprise, there was another step before it began: verifying his identity.

Everyone must fill out their detailed information and submit it to the sect. Then the sect will send people to check this information, and may even trace it back three or four generations.

Li Daoxuan hadn't expected this.

However, this was not difficult. He possessed the power to manipulate creation, and with the Soul-Suppressing Bell, it was not difficult for him to have an additional identity in a remote village.

As it happened, Li Daoxuan had encountered many villages on his travels, so he casually filled in one and gave himself the identity of an orphan.

After filling it out and submitting it, the trial officially begins.

For Li Daoxuan, these people were naturally not going to cause him any trouble.

Through Li Daoxuan's hard work, he finally managed to enter the inner sect by ranking twenty-eighth.

After all the assessments were completed, the Qingyun Sword Sect gave everyone a day to say goodbye to their relatives and friends, because according to the rules, one could not leave the sect within ten years of joining unless given special permission.

Perfect timing! One day is enough for Li Daoxuan to create an identity for himself.

About 300 miles away from Qingyun City, there is a village with only a dozen or so households, called Mojiatian.

Li Daoxuan was naturally faster than the disciples of the Qingyun Sword Sect who came to investigate the identity of the person seeking to become a disciple.

Under the cover of night, Li Daoxuan used the Soul-Suppressing Bell to hypnotize everyone in the village and implant a memory that they did not originally have. In these people's memories, Li Daoxuan's name was Li Er, and he came from the Mo family, who fled from their ancestors. Later, due to a strange beast in the mountains, his parents died tragically, leaving only Li Daoxuan as an orphan.

To make the memory as authentic as possible, Li Daoxuan even implanted a memory about Li Er's grandfather into the minds of the older generation.

That would make it flawless.

Upon returning to Qingyun City, Li Daoxuan visited the Lingquan Villa.

He returned the house here a few days ago.

I came here just to tell the little sprite.

He also gave it a talisman that could save its life in a critical moment.

After doing all this, Li Daoxuan had no more worries.

He can stay in the Qingyun Sword Sect as an inner disciple with peace of mind.

Li Daoxuan wanted to enter the Qingyun Sword Sect not only to find out the true strength of the legendary ancestor, but also to see if he could thwart the Qingyun Saint Lord's plan to break through to the Earth Immortal realm.

Finally, one should examine the supernatural powers and techniques of the Qingyun Sword Sect to broaden one's knowledge.

A day passed, and early the next morning, Li Daoxuan arrived at the steps leading to the Blessed Land of Spiritual Delight and boarded a flying boat with the Qingyun Sect disciples who came to form hand seals.

As Li Daoxuan passed through the gate to the blessed land, he clearly sensed the power of the array. It was a magic array capable of disrupting space, and its placement at the entrance was obviously intended to block outsiders.

However, this level of formation could not stop Li Daoxuan. With a slight sweep of his divine sense, he could see the core of the formation clearly and easily pass through it to enter the Linze Blessed Land.

"Ha...so that trip to the Southwest branch was a complete waste of time..."

Li Daoxuan laughed at himself.

With his strength, he wouldn't need any token from a branch sect leader to enter the Spirit Marsh Blessed Land.

Looking back, it was fortunate that he made that trip, as he learned a lot of information from his conversation with Jian Chen.

Now, facing the Qingyun Sword Sect, it's naturally much safer.

After the airship passed through a thick fog, the view suddenly opened up.

A scene of celestial paradise appeared before my eyes.

Even with Li Daoxuan's state of mind, he felt a stunning visual impact at this moment.

The key is not just the magnificent scenery on the surface, but also the rich spiritual energy that far surpasses that of the outside world.

Visible spiritual energy and mist lingered between those floating mountain peaks.

Li Daoxuan couldn't help but think to himself, if he had cultivated in such a sacred place when he first entered the Qi Refining stage, even without consuming any pills as an aid, he probably could have achieved Qi Refining perfection in less than a year.

No wonder the Qingyun Sword Sect has so many experts at the eighth and ninth levels.

Living in such a place, even without engaging in martial arts training, would likely result in a physique and vitality far superior to those outside.

On the flying boat, the young men and women who had entered with Li Daoxuan were all dumbfounded by what they saw.

This time, they were truly amazed.

"Fellow disciples, this is the blessed land of my Qingyun Sword Sect. From now on, this will be your sect."

The speaker was a young disciple in his early twenties with a cultivation level of the fifth level, which was definitely considered genius for his age.

This man has a kind and gentle face, and is a rare handsome man.

The newly initiated female disciples on the flying boat would instinctively avoid his gaze, their cheeks blushing involuntarily.

"My name is Gu Jiantang, and I belong to the Xijian Peak lineage. I will take you to the Qingyun Hall of the Holy Sect in a while. All seven peak masters and elders will be there to assign you to different peaks."

"Remember, once you enter the Azure Cloud Hall, you must not make a sound or be rude. If you anger the elders, you will not have a good time in the Holy Sect."

Gu Jiantang gently reminded him.

Another disciple standing beside him said coldly:

"Senior Brother Gu has a good temper and speaks politely, sometimes saying things in a rather tactful way."

"Listen up, all of you. If anyone causes trouble later, I will not forgive them, understand?"

The oppressive aura of a fifth-level expert pressed down, and these disciples, who had no cultivation or shallow cultivation, naturally could not withstand it and could only nod hastily.

Those eyes were filled with longing for the future.

"Alright, we've arrived at Qingyun Palace..."

After flying for nearly an hour, they finally arrived at the core of the Qingyun Sword Sect, the Qingyun Hall.
