Han Yan refined it for two days and three nights before he finally refined one-tenth of the green small sword. From this, it could be seen that it would take astonishingly long time to completely refine a single treasure. If one had reached the Foundation Establishment stage of late great perfection, the speed of refinement would be a bit faster, but it would still take at least thirty years. With these thirty years, he would be able to break through the bottleneck of the golden core stage. If his cultivation was low, for a treasure like Han Yan, it would take at least a hundred years. It could be said that Han Yan's crazy refinement only used three days, which was equivalent to ten years for other cultivators.

After Han Yan finished refining the green small sword, he cast a technique. The sword blade shone with a green light and then disappeared into thin air.

The small sword's speed was just too fast, and with a flash of an afterimage, it appeared in front of the cave's door. Han Yan's mind almost lost control of it. Han Yan's gaze focused on the green small sword. Under the influence of his divine sense, it flew in front of him again, circled around his body once, and flew in front of the cave. After repeating this a few times, Han Yan was finally able to do it easily. Afterwards, he kept the green small sword and left.

In front of the Tang Xuan Hall, the nine Qi Cultivation stage disciples had already arrived. Daoist Master Ming Yuan was standing in front of the crowd, staring at a seemingly lost location. No one knew what he was thinking about. Beside him stood a young and beautiful woman wearing a white dress. Her body exuded an arrogant aura, and her gaze made people feel ashamed of their own inferiority.

An impatient look flashed across Xiao Yuyao's eyes as he said to the Spiritual Master Ming Yuan beside him, "Tang Gu, why hasn't the leading disciple you chosen arrived yet?"

Everyone had been gathered here for more than an hour, but Han Yan did not appear.

Upon hearing Martial Uncle's question, Daoist Master Ming Yuan frowned and said, "Reporting to Martial Uncle Xiao, he might be busy, so he must be late!"

Xiao Yuyao coldly snorted, his eyes full of disdain, and said: "If he's busy, then are we alright? You came late, so you want us to wait for him? " If it were not for the fact that Daoist Master Ming Yuan repeatedly emphasized that this competition was very important, then with her personality from before, she would have long left. She would not have waited here for a Qi Cultivation stage disciple.

He took a deep breath in and said with gritted teeth, "Martial Uncle, let's wait for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. If he doesn't come soon, we'll …"

Xiao Yuyao waved her sleeves, interrupting Spiritual Master Ming Yuan's words and said in a stern voice, "There's no need, we'll wait here. I want to see what kind of disciple has that much face to make me wait for him here."

Behind the two of them, Xiahou Ming, who was previously disgraced by Han Yan's strike, laughed complacently in his heart, and thought to himself: "Han Yan, aren't you being arrogant? Aren't you looking down on everyone else? Don't you think that your Tao technique is profound? Humph! This time you have angered the Master Ancestor, you are dead meat, let's see how you will continue to be the leader. "

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, another hour had passed. Spiritual Master Ming Yuan was also slightly angry as he said: "Martial Uncle Xiao, how about I send someone to look for him?"

Just as Xiao Yuyao wanted to speak, a flash of astonishment appeared between his brows, and he immediately said: "No need, he's already here."

Spiritual Master Ming Yuan was startled, he raised his head and looked at the sky, there was no one in the sky, no one could be seen, no Han Yan was there. Just when he was wondering if Han Yan had truly come, a ray of light quickly approached and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye. As his figure descended, Han Yan's figure became visible. Han Yan hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Disciple Han Yan, greetings to the Sect Leader, I have seen you before... Greetings Master Ancestor. "

Xiao Yuyao's gaze fell on Han Yan's body, and was stunned for a moment before he cried out involuntarily, "It's you …"

Han Yan revealed a wry smile. It was said that enemies don't get together, how did he meet this senior again? Why did she come here? Could it be that the one leading the team this time is her? Thinking about what happened when he barged into her cave residence, Han Yan's expression became ugly, and he said: "Master Ancestor, disciple … I don't think I've seen you before! "

Xiao Yuyao's brows twitched, seeing how Han Yan was so adept at speaking, he swallowed his words of reprimand and said: "Since you are here, let's go!" The most important reason was still that Han Yan had saved her before. She did not put Han Yan in her heart, nor did she treat him as a benefactor. She also subconsciously treated Han Yan as half a person to her.

Seeing that Xiao Yuyao did not reprimand Han Yan, everyone was stunned. The Ming Yuan Spirit Master who was familiar with her opened her eyes wide with a look of disbelief.

Xiao Yuyao acted as if he did not see Daoist Master Ming Yuan's expression, and said indifferently: "What are you waiting for, let's go!"

Then, he said to the audience, "Regarding this competition, we must definitely listen to the Grand Elder's words. If anyone does not comply with the sect's rules, the Grand Elder will have the right to kill. As he said that, his gaze unintentionally fell on Han Yan's body. It seemed to be a reminder, but at the same time, it also seemed like a warning.

After everyone heard this, they all said in unison, "Disciple understands."

Xiao Yuyao waved his hand, signalling for everyone to leave. Then, his figure flashed, transforming into a white light that flew into the sky.

Seeing that she could fly without taking out her magic tool, everyone's heart immediately became excited. Sun Yu became even more shocked: "escape technique, is this the legendary escape technique?"

As he watched everyone fly into the sky, he sighed with emotion, "The escape technique is indeed strange. You don't need to step on a magic tool to be able to fly. When will I be able to cultivate the escape technique?!"

escape technique, a technique that uses a large amount of spiritual energy. When a cultivator reaches the golden core stage, they will be able to cultivate it. Cultivators who cultivated escape technique could fly in the air without using a spirit artifact. This was the biggest difference between high-level cultivators and low-level cultivator. The speed of the escape technique was extremely fast. It was said that when a cultivator cultivated the escape technique to an extremely high level, they could shrink the earth to a foot. Of course, the Earth Shrinking Ruler was also a high level technique. Even if he succeeded in his cultivation and lacked the Spiritual Qi, he would still be unable to use it. It was said that this spell could only be used when one reached the Nascent Soul stage. Once the cultivation of this technique was successful, one wouldn't even need to fly. With a few steps, one could teleport tens of thousands of miles.

The place where the ten great sects were having an exchange competition this time was not in any country, but in the place where Tang, Song, and Yan would cross paths with each other — Nine Heavens Mountain Range. The Nine Heavens Mountain Range was much bigger than the seven day mountain range. This place was extremely mysterious, and there were countless of arrays in the mountain range. Who knew when these arrays were set up, and only knew that after they were discovered by the cultivators, they existed.

Layers after layers, the array formations around Nine Heavens Valley were not strong, so Qi Refining Stage Cultivator could easily enter it. When they went deeper in, the array formations' might get stronger and stronger, and even Cultivator In Golden Pill Stage could not guarantee being able to enter it. Only cultivators that were proficient in formations would be able to cause a crack in the formation for a short period of time after a long period of time.

Everyone knew that the array at the edge of the Nine Heavens Mountain Range was not strong. As long as the Qi Refining Stage Cultivator could enter, they would be able to, but this was not the case for the Nine Heavens Valley. The array would loosen up once every hundred years, and only when the Qi Refining Stage Cultivator could loosen up again, would they be able to enter. Of course, his cultivation level was higher than the Qi Cultivation stage, so once he entered, he would be hit by a powerful force. If he forced his way in, it was said that he would be killed by the tens of thousands of lightning bolts inside the formation.

The exchange of pointers between the ten kingdoms took place in an open area outside of the Nine Heavens Valley. This place was not an open area, but rather, a mountainous area. Later on, the few sects' Aurous Core stage experts performed their supernatural powers and razed this place to the ground in one go and built an arena on the ground. Every sixty years, there would be an exchange competition to show off the sect's strength and to increase one's battle experience.

Of course, the Profound Immortal Sect had never participated in such a competition, if not for someone accidentally barging into the Nine Heavens Valley a hundred years ago, causing the formation inside the valley to be destroyed, causing it to loosen up once every hundred years, and this competition just happened to be close to its end, so the Profound Immortal Sect would also not have participated. For the other sects, they could obtain many benefits from this exchange, but for the disciples of the Profound Immortal Sect, it was simply a waste of time.

Everyone flew quickly without delay, arriving at Nine Heavens Mountain Range three days later.2

When he arrived outside the Nine Heavens Valley, he saw a flat ground that was like a plaza. On the ground, he saw tens of arenas. Although the competition had yet to begin, many disciples could be seen standing on the arena as they competed with each other. Spells and magic tools flew about in brilliant colors, causing the scene to be extremely beautiful to behold. There were many disciples surrounding each arena. They were whispering something to each other. If the match was exciting, they would burst into cheers.

When Xiao Yuyao brought everyone into the Nine Heavens Valley, everyone's gaze turned towards them. When those people saw the leading white-clothed woman, they all revealed looks of surprise. The female cultivator's gaze was extremely complicated; she was both envious and jealous. No matter how high the cultivation level was, the look in the male cultivator's eyes revealed one thing. That was, the appearance of the woman in front of them was truly beyond their imagination.

Xiao Yuyao's face did not change, everyone was already used to his gaze. Her figure moved and landed in the middle of the valley, with Han Yan and the rest following closely behind. When she landed, ten people flew out from the Immortal's cave at the very front of the square. They emanated auras, and were clearly cultivators of the golden core stage.

Of these ten people, eight were male and two were female. The age of the male cultivators were all above 40 while the female cultivators were all in their twenties. There was no helping it, no matter how high a person's cultivation level was, their appearance would slowly age, especially the male cultivators. Their aging speed was faster, and after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, they would look like they were in their thirties. Relatively speaking, female cultivators were much better. Most of the techniques that female cultivators practiced had the effect of retaining one's looks. Even though the two of them looked to be in their twenties, they were actually a few hundred years old. After all, to be able to cultivate to the golden core stage, it would take at least a few hundred years. Even if it was a genius with ten stars spiritual root, it would still take at least a hundred years to reach such a level.

The ten of them came in front of Xiao Yuyao and cupped their hands. The leading old man in green clothes smiled and said: "Fellow Xiao, we have been waiting for you for a long time."

Xiao Yuyao's face was solemn, without much expression, he said indifferently: "Fellow Daoist Wang, how have you been?" Saying that, he turned to Han Yan and the others behind him and said, "You may disperse! Go to the surroundings and open up a cave abode. Without my order, you are not allowed to leave the Nine Heavens Mountain Range. "

Everyone cupped their hands and said, "Yes, Grand Elder."

Just as Han Yan and the rest wanted to leave, one person walked out from the crowd, he suddenly pointed at Han Yan and bellowed: "You, wait a moment."
