Volume 1: Questioning the Past Chapter 52 Qiao Yanran

In the small wasteland, there is a mountain named Zhuji Mountain. It is so high that it almost touches the sky, and it is so wide that it covers thousands of miles. It is undoubtedly the largest in the small wasteland.
At the same time, this mountain is both a mountain and a monster. Its cultivation has reached the perfection of the Nascent Soul, which is also the best in the small wasteland. Because it contains the foundation-building fortune in its body, it opens once every five hundred years, so it is called the Foundation-Building Mountain!
At this moment, at the foot of a certain mountain in the Foundation Building Mountain, it seemed quite lively. Groups of people were flying in the air, riding boats, controlling beasts, and there was even a group of people standing on a huge ruler. In short, each one was unique in its own way.
Most of them were in groups of ten, with few exceeding ten, and there were even a few groups with only a handful of people standing. But without exception, the leader of each group was an elderly protector, and behind him were a group of young people.
These groups of people are the various forces and sects in the Small Wasteland. Those who can come here must be from powerful sects, and at least can squeeze into the top 20 in the Small Wasteland!
At this time, a auspicious cloud flew over from a distance, and many forces looked over. They saw that in addition to a middle-aged man at the head, there were more than 20 young disciples standing on the auspicious cloud. Some people were immediately surprised.
"Oh? There are so many disciples who have reached the Qi Condensation Perfection? Which force are they from?!"
Someone also recognized him and asked, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, have you heard of the Soul Devouring Sect?"
“Spirit Devouring Sect?” The fellow Daoist surnamed Jiang was slightly surprised. “The sect that was established only two hundred years ago and ranks among the top ten in the small wasteland?”
"Yes, it is said that this Soul Devouring Sect has a strange technique called the Soul Controlling Technique, which specifically seeks out mortals who are parasitized by Soul Devouring Insects to be disciples of the sect. The speed of cultivation is incredibly fast, and that is why they can rise so quickly!"
Another old man spoke with disdain, "Humph! It's just a side sect. It sounds nice to call it the Soul Devouring Body, but it doesn't have much combat power. I also know this sect. Its real core disciples have never been Soul Devouring Body. But I have heard that they have an extremely extraordinary spiritual treasure to protect the sect..."
The old man stopped talking because at this time the people from the Soul Devouring Sect had already come over on auspicious clouds, and he couldn't continue talking. Even though he had no substance, he still had to save face.
However, some people care about their face, while others don't.
"The foundation-building mountain is an important place for foundation-building that takes place once every five hundred years in the small wasteland. It is not a place where just anybody can come!"
An old lady with a pointed face and monkey chin snorted coldly and waved her sleeves. Suddenly, a hurricane came out from her sleeves. There was even lightning in the hurricane, and it rolled towards the people of the Soul-Devouring Sect.
A group of inner disciples of the Soul-Devouring Sect all changed color, feeling the terrifying power in the hurricane. This kind of power was far beyond what they could achieve when they established their foundation.
This is... a Dan-forming attack!
Only Master Bai remained calm, raised his hand and pointed lightly, and suddenly, the hurricane stopped and dissipated, and the lightning disappeared and annihilated. This simple gesture made most of the protectors present change their expressions.
"Jiedan...late stage!" someone exclaimed.
Master Bai smiled faintly, bowed his hands, and said: "My fellow Taoists, I am Master Bai from the Soul Devouring Sect. The Foundation Building Mountain is a once-in-five-hundred-year event, which can be regarded as a great event. Although our Soul Devouring Sect is a small sect, we also want to bring some young people out to see the world. I hope you will forgive me. However, if there are really people who can't stand it and don't want our Soul Devouring Sect to participate, although I am insignificant in my Taoist practice, I can still dare to ask for advice!"
After saying this, Master Bai's eyes focused, and as if they had become real, he looked at the old lady who had attacked before, and said, "This is Fellow Daoist Liu from the Qiqiao Sect, right? I wonder if Fellow Daoist Liu has anything to say?"
The old lady surnamed Liu was suddenly shocked all over, frightened by a terrifying aura. She was only in the initial stage of Jindan, and her cultivation level was far behind that of Master Bai. Naturally, she didn't dare to say anything, but she felt that she had lost face, and it was impossible for her to apologize . In the end, she snorted coldly and turned her head away.
Master Bai didn't care. He smiled slightly and looked around. When no one objected, he slowly withdrew his power.
Naturally, the strength displayed by Master Bai made many people dissatisfied, but most of these protectors were in the early stage of Jindan, with only one or two in the middle stage of Jindan. However, the gap was not small, and no one was willing to be the first to stand out.
However, although no one said anything on the surface, in fact, there were already protectors secretly instructing the disciples on what to do after entering the mountain...
Master Bai sighed inwardly. He had naturally seen through it, but there was nothing he could do. If he didn't act more assertive and some forces thought that his Soul-Devouring Sect was easy to control, they would unite and they wouldn't even have the chance to enter the Foundation Building Mountain.
As an emerging force, the Soul-Devouring Sect participated in the Foundation Establishment Mountain's creation for the first time, so it was good enough that they could successfully enter. After all, although Master Bai had strong cultivation, there were more than a dozen Jindan cultivators here.
But when Gu Xiaoxing saw this scene, he immediately felt yearning and felt that Master Bai was worthy of being Master Bai, always so mighty and domineering.
"When will I be able to scare a dozen Jindan masters into a state of panic with just a few words?"
But at this moment, a rude voice sounded.
"Humph, you Soul Devouring Sect are really so powerful!"
Everyone looked and saw a jade disc flying in the distance. On the jade disc, there were a dozen figures standing. Each of them had an extraordinary aura. Their bodies gave people a feeling of explosive power, especially the young disciple standing in the front. His blood was so rich that he looked like a ferocious beast.
The Body Refining Sect!
Then, another cloud floated over from another direction. That cloud was different from the auspicious cloud condensed by Master Bai. It was a colorful cloud, and on it stood a group of women. Each of them was graceful and beautiful, especially the female protector in the lead. Her sweet smile seemed to be able to touch people's hearts. There were more than a dozen of them.
Gu Xiaoxing frowned as he watched, thinking, "Where did these ugly freaks come from?"
"Is that... Yunxiao Sect?" A disciple next to Gu Xiaoxing exclaimed, "It is said that all fairies in Yunxiao Sect are extremely beautiful. Seeing them today is indeed true. This trip is worthwhile!"
"Are you sick?" Gu Xiaoxing looked at his fellow disciple with disdain. He remembered that his name seemed to be Zhou Bingding, so he subconsciously moved a little further away from him, but he saw that Zhou Bingding suddenly looked shocked.
"Then...then...could that be the Qiao Yanran in the rumors?"
After these words were spoken, all the fellow disciples looked over with excitement.
Gu Xiaoxing curled his lips and said, "What do you mean? Is it really that great?"
Zhou Bingding looked at Gu Xiaoxing in disbelief and asked, "You don't know?"
Gu Xiaoxing shook his head.
"You didn't know?!"
Suddenly, Zhou Bingding was very excited. He grabbed Gu Xiaoxing with bloodshot eyes, as if Gu Xiaoxing didn't know that Qiao Yanran was driving him crazy. He said anxiously, "Qiao Yanran! She is known as the number one fairy in Xiaohuang. She is not only beautiful but also extremely talented. She entered Taoism at the age of ten and has practiced for only twenty years, but she has already entered the late stage of Jindan. She is known as the goddess of Xiaohuang who has the greatest hope of breaking through to Yuanying within sixty years!"
Gu Xiaoxing looked over and saw Qiao Yanran standing on the colorful clouds, with a slender waist and a graceful figure. He couldn't help but smack his lips and said, "That's it?"
Zhou Bingding's eyes turned red with anger as he pointed at Gu Xiaoxing and angrily shouted, "How dare you insult the goddess? I want to duel with you!"
"Okay! Come on, come on..." Gu Xiaoxing also got angry and rolled up his sleeves, ready for a fight.
Won't people tell the truth?
Li Wenru, who was standing by, finally realized that Gu Xiaoxing was not targeting her on purpose. He seemed to be disgusted with other beautiful women. She couldn't help but think to herself, "What a weird person!"
"Noisy!"
The dispute was not settled until Master Bai gave a light shout.
At this time, the jade disc of the Body Refining Sect had already flown close. Its protector was a middle-aged man with a rough appearance, his upper body was naked, and his iron-like muscles seemed to contain the power to tear apart mountains and rivers. The middle-aged man laughed and without any nonsense, he raised his hand and punched the people of the Soul Devouring Sect.
It was obviously just a simple punch, but it had an inexplicable pressure that made the hearts of many disciples of the Soul-Devouring Sect beat wildly. Even Master Bai frowned, with a serious look in his eyes. This simple punch was much stronger than Madam Liu's thunder hurricane before.
I saw Master Bai raising his hand and slapping. The punch and the palm collided in the air. Suddenly, with a terrifying roar, waves of spiritual power swept in all directions, as if to sweep away everything.
But at this moment, there seemed to be a wonderful sound and laughter, and hundreds of flowers bloomed between heaven and earth. The waves of spiritual power that swept in all directions immediately dissipated. The two of them withdrew their hands at the same time and looked at one person.
"My two fellow Taoists, this concerns my disciple's foundation building, so it's better not to make a big fuss." Qiao Yanran took a step towards them. Her skin was like snow, her eyes were clear like frost. Her glance and smile were like a hundred flowers competing for beauty. She was truly as fragrant as ice and jade, and her smile was as beautiful as Qiao Yanran.
"Sister Yanran is very capable. In a few years, I'm afraid even I won't be your match!" The protector of the Body Refining Sect sneered.
Qiao Yanran bowed and smiled, saying, "Daoyou Long Zhen, you are too kind. Yanran is just a junior and does not dare to compete with the seniors."
Taoist Long Zhen snorted and said no more.
"Thank you, fairy!" Master Bai bowed.
Qiao Yanran smiled again and didn't say much. She turned around and returned to the colorful cloud. However, her stunning beauty and fairy-like temperament left a deep impression on everyone. She was worthy of the title of Xiaohuang's number one fairy!
"This Qiao Yanran seems to be a really tough character!" Gu Xiaoxing blinked. He had heard Zhou Bingding say before that she had only been practicing for twenty years, yet she could compete with Uncle Bai?
Uncle Bai has been practicing for two hundred years!
In the distance, a giant sword whizzed towards them and arrived in the blink of an eye. Everyone knew that it was the Sword Controlling Sect that came.
Sailing a boat with a giant sword is almost a unique way of flying for the Sword Controlling Sect and is very easy to recognize.
Gu Xiaoxing narrowed his eyes, but did not find Xu Qianxing's figure on the giant sword. He only saw that among the group of disciples of the Yujian Sect, the leader was actually... a child? !
At this moment, the entire Foundation Establishment Mountain suddenly shook, and a crack slowly appeared in the mountain. Even though it was far away, Gu Xiaoxing could feel a suction force coming from the crack. The passage into the mountain was through that crack. As long as one's cultivation had not reached the Foundation Establishment stage, one would be sucked into the crack and into the mountain if one got close to it!
And if there were any foundation-building cultivators mixed in, he would be strangled instantly by the suction force.
