After the ascent failed

Chapter 171 Noble?

After giving the cold wind tunnel an ultimatum, Ye Chunyang gave them some time to prepare to evacuate, so he was not in a hurry.

So after flying slowly for a day and a night, Ye Chunyang stopped in a small town.

This place is different from the previous city, the population is only a few hundred, and the supplies are very scarce, which shows that the townspeople living here are not rich.

Sure enough, after entering the town, Ye Chunyang felt deserted for a while, and there were very few pedestrians on the street.

Taking Ye Xiaobao to choose a teahouse to sit down, Ye Chunyang casually ate some snacks and took a rest.

"Aren't the two brothers also monks?"

Just when Ye Chunyang sat down, a voice sounded beside him.

He looked up, and saw a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old smiling at him.

The young man was dark-skinned, with a square basket made of bamboo and wood on his back, and an umbrella pinned next to him, looking dusty.

Ye Chunyang poured a cup of tea by himself, but did not answer the boy's words.

"The two are dressed in Daoist attire, they should be immortal cultivators, but they look very strange, so they are from outside, right? Don't they also want to go to the Cold Wind Cave to learn from a teacher?"

The young man was not polite at all, and sat down in front of Ye Chunyang, smiling.

A trace of displeasure flashed across Ye Chunyang's face.

But when he heard the mention of Cold Wind Cave in the young man's mouth, his expression changed slightly.

Seeing his excited look, the young man smiled even brighter, and said: "It seems that Brother Dao has also heard about the recent recruiting of disciples in the Cold Wind Cave, and I have loved cultivating immortals since I was a child. For my favorite, I heard that the cold wind cave occupies a spiritual vein, and the people are outstanding, so I yearn for it."

"is it?"

"I'm afraid fellow Taoists may not have the opportunity to join this sect if we go here."

Ye Chunyang seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

The Cold Wind Cave was about to move away, this person went to apprentice, but it was all in vain.

The young man was obviously taken aback when he heard the words, but soon he didn't care.

"Brother Dao's words are wrong."

The young man said with a mysterious look on his face, suddenly lowered his voice, approached Ye Chunyang and said, "To tell you the truth, fellow daoists, there are acquaintances in Xiayu Hanfeng Cave. This time, I will go to the beginning and practice properly. I have met a noble person, if you go with me, I can match you up, maybe you won't even be exempted from the examination."

"Oh, it turns out that your Excellency has a lot of background?"

Ye Chunyang joked.

"That is!"

The young man raised his head with a look of pride.

Suddenly remembered something, he smiled awkwardly, and said: "I almost forgot to introduce myself, people from Yan Guoxuan City in Xiayun Shaoling, haven't asked Brother Dao for your name?"

The boy stretched out his hand with a warm look.

What surprised him was that Ye Chunyang remained motionless, but Ye Xiaobao who was next to him reached out to shake his hand, "Besides, Ye Chunyang, this is my senior brother Ye Xiaobao."

"So it's... two Ye, Brother Ye."

Ye Xiaobao seemed to give it a light grip, but the boy suddenly gasped, grinning and unable to speak.

When he looked at the two in surprise, Ye Xiaobao had already withdrawn his hand.

But the young man is also a shrewd person. At a glance, he can see that this "big brother" who is "infinitely powerful" seems to be taking orders from Ye Chunyang, and he has a high opinion of the latter for a while.

"Brother Ye, I wonder what you two think of the proposal just below?"

The boy suppressed the doubt in his heart and asked.

"What proposal?" Ye Chunyang wondered.

"That's what I just said, you and I will go to the Cold Wind Cave together."

"I have already dredged up the relationship. If Daoist friends are interested, you and I will have someone to take care of us on the road, and it is better to have a noble person like me to help us than two people acting alone."

The young man said in an old-fashioned way.

"can."

"It just so happens that I also have something to go to the Cold Wind Cave, so it doesn't matter if I go with Fellow Daoist Yun."

Ye Chunyang shrugged, noncommittal.

He could tell that this young man had spiritual roots, but his cultivation was not high, only about the third level of Qi Refining.

Anyway, he was going to the Cold Wind Cave to find Soul Lake, and the two of them were just going the same way.

The young man was overjoyed when he heard the words, and raised his glass again and again: "Brother Ye is really straightforward, you and I are destined to meet each other, today I will replace wine with tea, and I will show my respect."

Ye Chunyang secretly felt it was funny, raised his glass to touch him, raised his head and drank it down, and then said: "Your Daoist looks so polite, does it come from a scholarly family?"

The young man was slightly taken aback, and nodded after being silent for a long time: "Brother Ye Huiyan, I was the champion of three generations of Yun family ancestors, and Shaoling was also influenced by my ears and eyes since I was a child. My father also wanted me to participate in the selection and serve the court, but everyone has his own ambitions." , instead of playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting all day long, it's better to be a free and unrestrained fairy."

Speaking of this, Yun Shaoling was full of interest: "I have read various ancient books on cultivating immortals since I was a child, and learned of many strange places. It is said that the mountain range where Hanfengdongtian is located was a holy place for cultivation tens of thousands of years ago. I don’t know why it has declined, and only this sect is left to occupy the top of the mountain. In addition to learning from a teacher, what’s more important is to see if there are any ancient secrets here.”

Ye Chunyang smiled.

What Yun Shaoling said was probably the Soul Lake tens of thousands of years ago, but what King Nanxuan said, this place did exist a long time ago, and the current situation may not even be known to the people in the cold wind cave.

"You Daoyou Ye, you can rest assured that the Cold Wind Cave is the first sect in the Yan Kingdom, and it has been passed down for thousands of years. The immortal cultivation skills inside must be extremely profound. You and I will go up the mountain to learn together, and we will definitely find the way to longevity."

Yun Shaoling chuckled and said confidently.

"Perhaps so."

Ye Chunyang looked profound.

Next, Yun Shaoling continued to talk eloquently, sometimes talking about the mortal imperial court, and sometimes about cultivating immortals. From the ears of others, he was really knowledgeable and well-informed.

But Ye Chunyang only laughed as a tea queen, and laughed it off.

After staying for about two hours, Ye Chunyang set off again, and Yun Shaoling, who claimed to be a "noble man", naturally did not place an order, and followed up.

Along the way, Yun Shaoling chattered non-stop, and Ye Chunyang didn't understand, and replied one after another, but he didn't rush on the road, and stopped to rest after walking for a while.

After going back and forth, on the third day, the three of them finally came to a towering mountain range.

After traveling for such a long time, Yun Shaoling was so tired that he was out of breath, and his face didn't have much color.

But when he raised his sleeves and kept wiping sweat, he was shocked.

Ye Chunyang and Ye Xiaobao next to them looked calm, without a trace of blushing and panting, as if they were strolling in the garden.

"After walking for such a long time, these two guys didn't show any signs of fatigue. Where did this freak come from?"

Yun Shaoling gasped.

Ye Chunyang didn't bother to pay attention to him. After staying in place for a while, he opened the map and looked at it. The mountains in front were surrounded by five elements, and a dragon's head hung down in the middle. It was the soul lake he was looking for.

"Hey, Brother Ye has even prepared such a detailed map, it seems that the determination to enter the Cold Wind Cave to learn from a teacher is not inferior!" Yun Shaoling's eyes lit up.

The map in Ye Chunyang's hand is marked in detail, and it is several times more precious than what he has seen before, so he can't help admiring Ye Chunyang's determination.

Ye Chunyang smiled lightly and remained silent.

After confirming his position, he immediately moved forward.

Yun Shaoling hurriedly followed.

However, after Ye Chunyang took a few steps forward, his figure paused, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that Hanfengdongtian is so confident that he actually took my words as a joke."

While walking into the mountain range, Ye Chunyang also probed with his spiritual sense, and suddenly found a group of monks inside, and there was a large array of mountain gates. Obviously, the people in the cold wind cave did not evacuate here as promised.

Ye Chunyang smiled and walked forward without saying a word.

At the same time, in a hall somewhere in the mountain range, several elders of the Cold Wind Cave gathered together again.

In the front, Zhao Motong stood still with his hands behind his back, his expression was deep, and his body naturally exuded the majesty of a superior.

"Cave Master, today is the third day. Seeing that the sun has set, the monk surnamed Ye has not appeared. It seems that it is mostly a bluff and dare not really show up at the door."

An old man in green robe showed a sneer, looked at Zhao Motong in front of him, and said lightly.

"Elder Lin is right. This man's clamor is actually a paper tiger. He thought we would really believe what he said and leave the sect directly." A muscular young man next to him also said.

Despite his young appearance, he is actually more than 200 years old, and he is the youngest among the several elders in Hanfengdongtian.

Zhao Motong stood still for a long time, without any fluctuation on his face.

"Cave master."

At this moment, a woman stood beside her. She had a charming appearance, narrow and long phoenix eyes, and dark waves flowed. She saluted Zhao Motong and said, "Although this person has not moved yet, Master Zhenyi has not. His return shows that he may indeed have fallen, this person can kill Master Shinichi, we must take precautions no matter what."

"Junior Sister Qing is probably too cautious. If he really dared to show up, he would have already appeared. Why is he still missing?" the green-robed old man "Elder Lin" said disdainfully.

The woman frowned slightly, wanting to refute.

At this time, Zhao Motong who was in the front waved his hand suddenly, and said: "Junior Sister Qing is right, no matter whether Master Zhenyi is dead or alive, we will not allow anyone who threatens the sect to exist."

He slowly turned around and faced the crowd, with a cold look in his eyes: "Although it is already the third day, but the identity of this person is not clear yet, you go and investigate, once you find his whereabouts, you will be killed."

Several elders looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

But at this time, Ye Chunyang, who had climbed the mountain range, suddenly came to the gate of the cold wind cave. Looking up from the bottom, there is a Ruozhen dragon bowing its head, majestic.

At the dragon's head, a winding stone ladder stretches all the way down, and many monks at the level of refining Qi and Dao foundation come and go here.

"Here we are, here is the mountain gate of the Cold Wind Cave, as long as we go up the stone ladder, we can learn from our master and cultivate immortals!"

Yun Shaoling looked excited.

Ye Chunyang didn't say a word, and walked forward silently.

"Do you want to participate in the apprenticeship assessment?"

Just as the three of them were walking towards the stone ladder, a person appeared in front of them, staring at them maliciously: "Our Cold Wind Cave has rules, but anyone who wants to learn a teacher at the beginning must bow three times and kowtow nine times all the way until the entrance of the cave. "
