Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

However, some Nascent Soul cultivators still managed to capture the scene of the two fighting.

"Such powerful strength! I never expected that this seemingly delicate fairy would actually exchange a punch with Bai Chengfeng head-on and even send him flying." A Nascent Soul cultivator explained in astonishment.

Looking at Bai Chengfeng again, his right hand was trembling uncontrollably.

"Her physical strength is actually stronger than mine? So, she has reached the Vajra Realm of physical strength?" Bai Chengfeng looked at Ye Liuyun, who was still in a punching stance, with shock and envy.

He must know the different realms of body cultivation, which only pure body cultivators can reach. She, a half-baked practitioner, only has the physical strength of body cultivation, but not the abilities. For example, she has no internal energy, let alone true essence.

"Are you currently in the True Essence Realm or the Vajra Realm?" Bai Chengfeng asked curiously.

Ye Liuyun smiled faintly.

“This is a secret, I can’t tell you. If you know about these realms, you should understand that these things cannot be told to strangers,” Ye Liuyun replied.

Bai Chengfeng nodded in agreement.

“That’s true, let’s go again.” Bai Chengfeng was not convinced and attacked again, but this time, Ye Liuyun did not passively defend but took the initiative to attack. The two figures began to flash back and forth on the arena, and each flash was a clash between the two.

However, Bai Chengfeng suffered losses time and time again. But he had a strong defense and was able to withstand several attacks from Ye Liuyun without losing his fighting ability.

Bai Chengfeng was a man of his word. Although he knew that his physical strength and speed were not as strong as Ye Liuyun's, he still did not use any power other than his physical strength.

After exchanging blows for several dozen rounds, Bai Chengfeng was beaten black and blue by Ye Liuyun, and his whole body was in excruciating pain.

"My goodness, this fairy is too violent!" The cultivators watching from the sidelines shuddered when they saw the once arrogant Bai Chengfeng beaten to this state.

"So powerful! Is this pure body cultivation? Why don't I, Bai Chengfeng, have such an opportunity? I've pursued physical strength my whole life but haven't succeeded. This woman must have mastered the complete body cultivation method." Although Bai Chengfeng was beaten badly, he couldn't feel any physical pain at all; instead, he felt heartache.

Seeing Bai Chengfeng's continued lack of intention to give up, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but feel admiration. If it were a cultivator from their Nine Heavens Domain, they would have already resorted to using their magic power.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, that's enough. You can't beat me in terms of physical strength. Let's stop here. You are the only opponent I've encountered who, with a similar cultivation level, could withstand dozens of my heavy blows," Ye Liuyun praised.

But these words made Bai Chengfeng even more upset. He took a deep breath and then asked a question.

"What is your name, Fairy?" Bai Chengfeng asked.

"Ye Liuyun," Ye Liuyun introduced himself.

Bai Chengfeng took a deep breath.

"I lost. I can't beat you in a pure physical contest. I thought there were no strong people in the Nine Heavens Domain, but I was proven wrong so quickly. I take back my arrogant words." Bai Chengfeng said very seriously.

Bai Chengfeng is quite carefree; he admitted defeat without hesitation and even publicly retracted his previous taunts, which is a very shameful act.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Bai, you only lost in terms of physical strength. If it were a contest of magical power, I definitely couldn't beat you. Alright, that's enough. I'll take my leave." Ye Liuyun stepped off the stage after seeing his opponent admit defeat.

However, just as Ye Liuyun was about to leave, Bai Chengfeng suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Fairy, please wait a moment. May we speak alone?" Bai Chengfeng asked Ye Liuyun with longing eyes.

Ye Liuyun roughly knew what Bai Chengfeng wanted to talk about, and after thinking about it, she agreed.

Bai Chengfeng was clearly a body-refining fanatic. Judging from her attack just now, this guy had forcibly refined a body and speed at the first level of the Nascent Soul realm without any special methods. His perseverance was probably even more exaggerated than Ye Liuyun's.

"Alright, let's go this way." Ye Liuyun looked at Bai Chengfeng's eyes, thought for a moment, and then agreed to his request.

When Bai Chengfeng saw Ye Liuyun agree, his joy was written all over his face.

After the two reached a less crowded area, Bai Chengfeng couldn't help but ask.

"Fairy Ye, do you possess a complete body-refining method? If you do, could you exchange it with me? Name your price, and I can even obtain a top-grade Heaven-rank magic treasure to exchange with you."

Once in a quiet area, Bai Chengfeng directly stated his purpose.

Chapter 612 Taking on Disciples? (5000 words)

Ye Liuyun was taken aback when she saw that Bai Chengfeng actually wanted to exchange body-refining methods with her.

Her body-refining method is Sun Yuan's Nine Revolutions Divine Power, which is definitely a method of the Demon Emperor Scripture level or higher. How could a mere Heaven-rank magic treasure possibly catch Ye Liuyun's eye?

Therefore, Ye Liuyun did not speak immediately, but looked at Bai Chengfeng with a half-smile.

Bai Chengfeng felt a little guilty and embarrassed under Ye Liuyun's gaze, and blushed. He gave an awkward smile and took a deep breath.

"Alright, I was too abrupt. But Fairy Ye, my lifelong pursuit is to obtain a complete body-refining method. If you feel that a top-grade Heaven-rank magic weapon is still not enough, then tell me your conditions, and I'll see if I can meet them." Bai Chengfeng knew that making such a request was unreasonable, but after learning that Ye Liuyun was a pure body cultivator, he couldn't calm his restless heart or find peace.

He was mentally prepared that even if Ye Liuyun wanted a divine-level magic weapon or something else, he would have to find a way to get it for Ye Liuyun.

She wouldn't refuse anything she could get her hands on, but she was afraid that Ye Liuyun would ask for something she simply couldn't do, in which case there would be nothing she could do.

Ye Liuyun could see the longing in Bai Chengfeng's eyes, but she couldn't just pass on the Nine Revolutions Divine Power to anyone. So, after thinking for a moment, she spoke.

“You should know very well that if you want to pursue the pure path of body cultivation, you have to abandon your Qi Refining cultivation and start over. Even if I am willing to make the trade with you, are you prepared to abandon your cultivation and start over? Can you bear this price?”

However, to Ye Liuyun's surprise, Bai Chengfeng nodded in agreement without saying a word.

“No problem. As long as I can obtain the complete body-refining method, I don’t care about the cultivation level of the Transformation Realm.” Bai Chengfeng said decisively.

Bai Chengfeng was able to cultivate his physical strength to the first level of the Nascent Soul realm simply by cultivating his physical body, so he was very clear that if he had a complete method, he would be even stronger than he is now.

Moreover, he already possesses a powerful physical body, so retraining his body cultivation methods wouldn't mean starting from scratch entirely. He is confident that he can surpass his current self within a hundred years.

Body cultivators and magic cultivators are different. The strength of a magic cultivator's combat power is greatly related to their cultivation realm, but for a body cultivator, the strength of their combat power is meaningless if they simply look at their cultivation realm.

For example, if Bai Chengfeng has reached the Innate Realm and cultivated internal energy, coupled with his physical body at the first level of the Primordial Spirit Realm, he would probably directly reach the combat power of the third level of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

To be honest, Ye Liuyun's physical strength is not as good as Bai Chengfeng's; it's just that Bai Chengfeng has cultivated a complete body-refining method.

Furthermore, although Bai Chengfeng is not a body cultivator, he has already broken the shackles of his physical body. He is now all set except for the final push.

Ye Liuyun was taken aback. She hadn't expected this guy to be so decisive, which put her in a difficult position. She stroked her chin, looking left and right with her eyes wide open, appearing quite troubled.

“Eh? This body-refining method is a closely guarded secret of my sect. I have no right to exchange it with others without authorization,” Ye Liuyun said.

Upon hearing this, Bai Chengfeng gritted his teeth.

Ye Liuyun did not directly refuse his request, which means there is still a possibility of discussion.

After a moment of thought, Bai Chengfeng took a deep breath and then, with a thud, knelt directly in front of Ye Liuyun.

“Fairy, becoming a body cultivator is my lifelong wish, Bai Chengfeng’s wish. I can give up everything, including my dignity. As long as you are willing, I can leave the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Spirits, join your sect, and become your disciple. That should be enough, right?” Bai Chengfeng said very seriously.

Ye Liuyun was also startled by this guy's sudden action.

The reason she was willing to have a private conversation with Bai Chengfeng was because she discovered that Bai Chengfeng had actually broken the shackles of the physical body; otherwise, her physical body could not have reached its current level.

"This guy is quite the martial arts fanatic. Although the Flowing Cloud Sect has my treasures to rely on, it lacks talent besides me. Sun Wukong should have some body-refining methods besides the Nine Revolutions Divine Power. If we ask him for another one to lure Bai Chengfeng into joining our Flowing Cloud Sect, then our Flowing Cloud Sect will have an unparalleled genius. Hmm, let's do it this way." Ye Liuyun quickly analyzed the pros and cons in his mind.

Bai Chengfeng remained kneeling, waiting for Ye Liuyun to answer.

It is said that a man's knees are worth gold. Although Bai Chengfeng felt ashamed, if the other party was willing to agree to his request, then kneeling would be nothing.

"Alright! Seeing how sincere you are, I'll agree. I'm willing to take you as my disciple, but not now. After all, you haven't left the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Spirits yet. I'll take you back to my sect after you leave the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Spirits and the Yaochi Immortal Gathering ends. Is that alright?" Ye Liuyun said solemnly.

As soon as Ye Liuyun finished speaking, Bai Chengfeng's face immediately showed a shocked expression. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Liuyun with some suspicion.

"Don't look at me like that. You are the first person I've met who has broken free from the shackles of the physical body. Perhaps we are truly destined for each other. Otherwise, even if you offered me a divine weapon in exchange, I wouldn't trade it," Ye Liuyun replied.

However, just as Bai Chengfeng was about to say something, something unexpected happened. Suddenly, several figures descended from the sky and landed at the edge of the area where Ye Liuyun and Bai Chengfeng were.

Judging from the clothing of the newcomers, they all wore patterns of birds and beasts, so they must be other participating cultivators from the Myriad Spirits Domain.

As soon as these people arrived, they saw Bai Chengfeng kneeling in front of a beautiful female cultivator in white, and it seemed that he was doing so voluntarily.

"What? Junior Brother Bai, what are you doing?" A woman in a fiery red dress embroidered with vermilion bird patterns suddenly became angry. This woman was Bai Chengfeng's senior sister, named Zhu Huan, who was at the third level of the Nascent Soul realm.

The sudden arrival of outsiders startled Ye Liuyun and Bai Chengfeng.

Ye Liuyun couldn't help but glance at the cultivators from the Myriad Spirits Domain; there were four of them.

"Yes, Senior Brother Bai, why aren't you standing up? What are you doing? Why are you kneeling before a strange woman? You vixen, what have you done to my senior brother? Let him go!" another petite girl in a cyan dress said angrily.

After saying that, she raised her hand and sent a burst of magic towards Ye Liuyun.

She felt that Ye Liuyun must have done something to Bai Chengfeng, otherwise, in her impression, the arrogant and bold Bai Chengfeng would never kneel down to someone so easily.

But immediately, the people from the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Spirits were stunned, because they saw Bai Chengfeng suddenly stand up and appear in front of Ye Liuyun, casually slapping away the attack of the girl in green.

“Junior Sister Qingling, you must not be rude to this fairy. She did not force me to kneel; it was I who asked her to do so,” Bai Chengfeng said solemnly.

Judging from Bai Chengfeng protecting Ye Liuyun, this guy genuinely wants to become Ye Liuyun's disciple, and it's not just a spur-of-the-moment decision.

"What? You need her help? You vixen, what kind of bewitching spell did you use on my senior brother? Undo it right now, or don't blame us for being impolite!" The girl in green was furious.

She still felt that Bai Chengfeng must have been under Ye Liuyun's spell, otherwise all of this would be too outrageous.

Ye Liuyun rolled her eyes when the other person called her a fox spirit.

"Hey, hey, hey, little girl over there, you need to be responsible for your words. I didn't use any bewitching techniques on this guy. He just took a fancy to my cultivation method and wanted to become my disciple," Ye Liuyun corrected.

Upon hearing this, the four of them immediately turned their gaze to Bai Chengfeng.

But Bai Chengfeng said without hesitation.

“What the fairy said is right. You should know very well that I, Bai Chengfeng, have spent my whole life searching for a complete body refining method. Today, I have seen what I want in this fairy. Therefore, I have decided to leave the Myriad Spirits Holy Land and become her disciple after the Yaochi Immortal Gathering.”

Bai Chengfeng's words were truly astonishing. If they had previously thought that Bai Chengfeng was bewitched, after hearing that Bai Chengfeng knelt before Ye Liuyun for the sake of the complete body refining method, they could understand it for a moment.

"This? This fox spirit is a body cultivator? How could that be? Senior brother, look at her, how does she look like a body cultivator? She's so weak and frail, all soft flesh, she doesn't have any strength at all. You've been fooled by her, haven't you?" The girl in green glanced at the voluptuous Ye Liuyun and completely disbelieved that Ye Liuyun was a body cultivator.

After all, in their minds, a body cultivator should be someone with a strong and powerful physique, definitely not someone like Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun was even more speechless after hearing this. Why did she hear such envy, jealousy and hatred coming from this girl in green?

However, Ye Liuyun was too lazy to explain anything. She took a deep breath, lifted her high heels, and stomped hard on the ground.

The next moment, cracks rapidly spread outwards from Ye Liuyun's feet.

It startled the four people on the other side, who immediately took off from the ground and flew into the air.

They didn't sense any magical fluctuation from that light kick, but judging from the cracks in the ground, the kick was surprisingly powerful.

"This?" Everyone looked at the extent of the cracks, which had a radius of nearly fifty meters.

"Alright, now you should believe me, right?" Ye Liuyun said, looking at the people in the sky.

The four fell silent. Such a light kick could produce such great destructive power, and there was no fluctuation of magical power. It was indeed a body cultivator.

"You lot should mind your own business. I've spoken with this fairy on the arena, and I'm no match for her. I wouldn't have acted this way if I hadn't been certain she was a body cultivator," Bai Chengfeng explained.

The group gradually withdrew their hostility. Since it was Bai Chengfeng's unilateral action, it would be unreasonable for them to continue blaming Ye Liuyun.

"Alright, hey! What's your name? Are you a cultivator from the Nine Heavens Holy Land? If you are, I can have my father discuss it with your Holy Lord. We can exchange something for this body-refining method." Qing Ling said to Ye Liuyun, clearly displeased.

"Junior sister, you can't be so rude. This fairy is not a disciple of the Nine Heavens Holy Land," Bai Chengfeng admonished.

Qingling walked over and hugged Bai Chengfeng's arm.

"No, Senior Brother, isn't it just a body-refining method? Why do you have to leave the Holy Land and become this woman's disciple? What kind of body-refining method is so precious? I think we should go back and discuss it properly first." Qing Ling pulled Bai Chengfeng and tried to leave.

“Yes, Junior Brother Bai, this is such a big matter, you can’t make a decision on your own. The Holy Lord might not grant your request,” Zhu Huan quickly added.

The other two young men were also trying to persuade Bai Chengfeng to calm down and not be too hasty.

However, Bai Chengfeng's attitude was firm and no amount of persuasion could change it. He had voluntarily given up everything he had learned in the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Spirits, so even if the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Spirits couldn't do anything to him, they couldn't possibly kill him, could they?

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Bai, we're not exactly master and disciple yet. You should go back first and deal with your own affairs before we talk again, lest your fellow disciples say I lied to you. I'm leaving now," Ye Liuyun said, then left with a smile.

Bai Chengfeng didn't chase after him, but just watched Ye Liuyun leave. At the same time, he became even more convinced of his previous idea that he must become Ye Liuyun's disciple.

In the days leading up to the Jade Pool Immortal Gathering, the Jade Pool Immortal Realm was quite lively. These cultivators from other realms frequently occupied various arenas to challenge the cultivators from other holy lands in order to test their abilities.

However, the cultivators from the other holy lands are not idiots. They can play around, but it's impossible for them to actually do it. So, if they want to investigate in advance, they can only find out the abilities of the cultivators from the Nine Heavens Domain.

Three days later, in Lin Aoxue's villa, Ye Liuyun was talking with his family when suddenly a voice rang out from the sky.

"Dear participants and spectators of the Yaochi Immortal Gathering, tomorrow is the first day of the Yaochi Immortal Gathering. We have already transmitted the competition events, rules and procedures to your participation tokens through the tokens above your heads. You only need to use your divine sense to touch the tokens to obtain the information."

As soon as the voice came out, everyone quickly closed their eyes to check the competition events, but when they saw the information inside, they all gasped in shock.

Because there are many events, including competitions in alchemy, formations, and weapon crafting, it's similar to the Olympics on Earth. There are many events, and you can choose to participate in them. You don't have to participate in all of them, and different venues have different rules.

There are dozens of projects of all sizes, but there are also large-scale competitions with the most generous rewards.

The top 100 in major events and the top three in minor events will be selected.

However, the last item is a spot in the Nine Heavens Secret Realm, which requires participants to reach a certain score.

All projects award points, but some projects award fewer points. If you really want to compete for a spot in the Nine Heavens Secret Realm, you almost have to participate in the major projects. Major projects usually involve rounds of advancement, and you get points as long as you advance, you don't necessarily have to get a ranking.

"So many projects! And they're only announcing them today. I think everyone's going to be busy," Ye Liuyun remarked.

After reading it, Lin Aoxue said calmly.

"I don't care. I only participate in major combat-type events. Other secondary profession competitions and such have nothing to do with me."
