Lin Shen stood on a gentle slope and looked around. The mountains and plains were filled with powerful practitioners, no less than two thousand of them by sight.

The Qi of many practitioners gathered together and formed an invisible column of Qi that shot straight into the sky, sweeping away all the clouds. The sky was clear and bright for miles around.

Qu Ke and Shen Zening stood beside Lin Shen, looking at this scene they couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"The Xuanling Sect is indeed one of the great sects in the East China Sea. In just one Xuandu Conference, so many cultivators from the ninth level of Mingqiao gathered to participate!" Qu Ke sighed.

Shen Zening smiled and said: "In the final analysis, the attraction of Xuan Hua Liquid is too great, let alone casual cultivators. Even if you are a large disciple like you and me, as long as you want to condense the third and fourth grade spiritual veins, who wouldn't want to come to Xuan Hua Liquid?"

Everyone will give it a try!"

Qu Ke nodded with deep understanding.

Although the Spirit Casting Pill can also condense spiritual veins, the former spiritual veins are easier to say.

When the number of spiritual veins exceeds nine later, if you want to condense the spiritual veins, you will often need dozens of spirit-casting pills!

Even a large number of disciples can hardly afford it.

It is better to come to the Xuandu Conference and give it a try. Once you are lucky enough to get three or four drops of Xuanhua liquid, it is hard to say whether you have a third-grade spiritual vein, but it is more than enough to forge a fourth-grade spiritual vein!

That’s why so many practitioners flock to the Xuandu Conference.

Some practitioners even do dirty things to get a Xuandu Order.

Lin Shen was listening to the conversation between Qu Ke and the two, when the sounds of several other people talking suddenly came to his ears.

"This year's Xuandu Conference has many more people participating than in previous years!"

"What a tragedy, with so many people, even if they discover the Xuanhua Wood Spirit, it probably won't be my turn to take it!"

"The Xuandu Conference hasn't even started yet, why are you starting to get discouraged? You're here, but you have to work hard to win!"

"I think Xiao Cai is right. There are many masters among this year's participants. With these people competing for the Xuan Hua Wood Spirit, we are probably far from being a match!"

Lin Shen followed the sound and found that the people speaking were an old man, two young men, and three others.

The two younger men were about 27 or 28 years old. Judging from their clothing, they seemed to be casual cultivators.

Another old man has frosty white hair on his temples, but a rosy complexion and firm skin, which makes him look like a fairy.

After listening to the old man's words, Lin Shen's expression changed and he walked over.

After noticing Lin Shen approaching, the two young men immediately looked on guard and subconsciously tensed their bodies.

The old man did not panic, and gave the two men a wink to calm down, then looked at Lin Shen with a gentle smile.

Lin Shen didn't care and came straight to the old man, cupped his hands and said with a smile:

"The old man is very polite. Lin Shen, I just overheard three people chatting. From what the old man said, it seems that he is quite familiar with the people here?"

"It's not that we're familiar with each other, it's just that I've been traveling back and forth in several nearby big cities. I've seen a lot, so I naturally know more than others." The old man said with a smile.

"May I ask what the old man is called?"

"My surname is Luo, and my last name is Wei."

After Luo Wei finished speaking, he took the initiative and said without waiting for him to speak:

"If Fellow Daoist Lin is interested in the people here, why don't I introduce them to you?"

Lin Shen was a little surprised that Luo Wei was so proactive, but that was why he came to talk, so he nodded happily.

"Sorry for bothering you, old man."

Luo Wei smiled slightly, his eyes wandered among the crowd, and suddenly pointed in a direction.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, look over there."

Lin Shen couldn't help but look in the direction he was pointing, and saw three young monks standing on a high slope.

The three of them were all dressed in black robes, with sunken eyes, their faces were so pale that there was no trace of blood, and their whole bodies exuded a cold aura.

The monks who passed by the three of them all showed fear in their eyes and subconsciously distanced themselves, as if the three of them were some kind of vicious and terrifying monsters.

Luo Wei whispered: "You must have seen it, fellow Daoist Lin, those three people are disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect!"

Corpse Yin Sect!

Lin Shen raised his eyebrows.

Of course he doesn't know about this sect.

In other words, as long as there are practitioners who have stayed in Tōkaidō for a few years, there is no one who does not know about the Corpse Shadow Sect.

The Corpse Yin Sect, like the Blood Sea Sect, is a notorious demon sect in the East China Sea. It rules the White Phosphorus City and is famous for its evil method of refining corpses.

It can be said that in the Tokaido, the flying yaksha and fugonggu of White Phosphorus City can be said to be existences that stop children from crying at night!

I don’t know how many Xuanmen monks died at the hands of the evil corpses of the Corpse Yin Sect!

At this moment, among the many glances looking at the three Corpse Yin Sect disciples, there were many angry looks.

If sight could kill, the three of them would have been dead long ago.

However, in the face of many unkind eyes, the three Corpse Yin Sect disciples always seemed as if they had not seen them. They looked calm and calm, showing that they were very confident in their own strength and had nothing to fear.

Taking his eyes away from the Xiyin Sect, Luo Wei pointed to another place and said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, look over there, that is the Feiyun Sect disciples."

Lin Shen turned his gaze again.

Compared to the cold treatment received by the disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect, the disciples of the Feiyun Sect are much more lively.

Twenty or thirty casual cultivators gathered together, like stars over the moon, surrounding three Feiyun Sect disciples who were dressed in extremely impressive styles, with smiles on their faces and fawning looks on their faces.

From far away, you can hear a steady stream of flattery.

However, the three Feiyun Sect disciples only had faint smiles on their faces from beginning to end, with a kind of reserved arrogance.

Yuanling City, where Feiyun Sect is located, can only be regarded as the second-rate top city in Tokaido, far inferior to big cities such as Linlong City, Guanhai City and White Phosphorus City.

However, there is only one Feiyun Sect in the entire Yuanling City.

With the power of a city concentrated on itself, Feiyun Sect's overall strength is not inferior to any of Jiuyang Sect, Qingshuang Sect and Jingtao Sect.

It is difficult to practice as a casual cultivator, and I always want to join the Dacheng Sect.

The top sects looked down upon them, and they felt that they could not climb higher, so sects such as Feiyun Sect became their first choice.

It just so happens that Feiyun Sect is one of the few authentic Xuanmen sects that is willing to absorb casual cultivators.

Therefore, wherever Feiyun Sect disciples go, they are often highly sought after by casual cultivators.

Luo Wei then ordered several disciples from the sect to come out.

Among them were people from the Blood Sea Sect.

"You must have seen it, Fellow Daoist Lin. In this year's Xuandu Conference, the total number of disciples from all the major sects is nearly a hundred. Whether it is cultivation, martial arts skills, or magic weapons and talismans, these major disciples are better than us, small sect disciples and casual cultivators."

They are much more powerful, so how can we compete with them for the Xuanhua Wood Spirit?"

"I can only hope that I will be lucky and catch the fish that slipped through the net!"

Luo Wei looked sad.

The two young men next to him could not hide their depressed expressions.

If they had some confidence just now, as Luo Wei pointed out the disciples one by one, their confidence had been shattered.

Compared with the large sect disciples, the small sect disciples and casual cultivators are indeed extremely weak and unable to compete with them.

Lin Shen muttered: "I heard that there are many powerful people among casual cultivators. Maybe there are such people among the participants?"

Luo Wei glanced at him and said with a smile: "It is true as Fellow Daoist Lin said, at least as far as I can recognize, there are three well-known and powerful casual cultivators here!"

After finishing speaking, Luo Wei looked at the crowd around him again, tapped his fingers, and named three people in turn.

Lin Shen's eyes followed the direction he pointed and found that the three people were two men and one woman.

One is a man wearing a gray robe. He is tall and thin, with a white face and no beard. He is about forty years old. His face is expressionless, and he has an aura that does not allow strangers to approach him.

One is a man with a fat head and big ears, also in his thirties, with a fat body, and looks like a round meat ball from a distance.

However, his demeanor was quite easy-going and he always had a smile on his face.

Finally, there is a young woman with a beautiful face, about thirty years old, with a beautiful face, white skin, wearing a light green gauze dress, and a graceful figure.

It stands to reason that such a beautiful person should be quite eye-catching and coveted.

But it is true that this young woman has attracted a lot of attention, but most of them are fear and fear, and only a few are coveting her.

From Luo Wei's introduction, Lin Shen learned that the names of the three people were Yin Xianbin, Guan Zhou and Yi Sufeng.

"These three people are said to have more than ten channels of cultivation. They do not have an advantage over the disciples of the major sects. However, they are all casual cultivators who have been training outside for many years. They have some powerful life-saving means in their hands. In a real life-and-death fight, many major sect disciples

The disciples are no match for them!"

There was deep fear in Luo Wei's words.

Lin Shen nodded slightly, thoughtfully.

Casual cultivators lack cultivation resources, so their cultivation progress is far inferior to that of sect disciples.

For example, in the Jiuyang Sect, as long as the disciples' qualifications are not too bad, they can reach the ninth level of Mingqiao and start to gather spiritual veins before they are thirty years old at most.
