Mortal Bones

"That's what you said when Taiping met Lu Yuan before."

Zhao Linglong rolled her eyes at Qingxiao.

Qing Xiao's mouth twitched when he heard this, then coughed twice and said:

"These six people are different. None of them are white spirit bones. It is very likely that two of them have broken through the Watching Nether Realm and can already use some low-level magical powers."

"The other four are all masters of the Open Door Realm. They have also practiced martial arts, and they all have their own unique martial arts skills."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Linglong frowned slightly and said with some confusion:

"These people have such cultivation strength and even good bones. Why are they placed in the outer gate?"

Lin Buyu on the side also turned his head and looked here, obviously very curious about this.

"They are either mountain disciples who have violated discipline or have bad deeds. Some of them took the initiative to go to the outer sect to gain breakthroughs."

Zi Yan helped Qing Xiao answer.

"Isn't this unfair?"

Zhao Linglong was very surprised.

"fair?"

Qing Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"The Seven Peaks selection created by the leader was originally just to appease some outer disciples, so that they can take care of the medicine fields and fairy fields for us at the foot of the mountain."

"Linglong, think about it carefully. After so many selections in the Seven Peaks, how many white spirit bones did you win in the end?"

Zi Yan reminded Zhao Linglong.

Zhao Linglong thought about it carefully, and then she really discovered that among the disciples who had entered the inner sect from the outer sect, there were really not many who were Bai Linggu.

"Cultivation is so cruel. Roots and bones are greater than anything else. Qi-refining cultivators are greater than physical warriors. Taiping means practicing the Seven-Slayer Sword and Blue Bull Fist to the point of great success. It may be difficult to resist the cultivators. A magic technique."

Even after watching today's competition, Qing Xiao was still not optimistic about Xu Taiping becoming an official disciple.

"But you don't have to worry about him staying on the mountain."

He then comforted Zhao Linglong.

Being able to keep Xu Taiping on the mountain is already a very good result.

But for some reason, Zhao Linglong just couldn't be happy.

"Senior brother, the last Seven Summits should be in half a month, right?"

Zhao Linglong asked Qingxiao.

"Um."

Qing Xiao, who was talking to Zi Yan, turned to look at Zhao Linglong and nodded.

"Senior brother, please help me book a place to watch the game. I want to go to Yangxin Pavilion to retreat for half a month."

Zhao Linglong said seriously.

"You want to retreat?"

Qing Xiao couldn't believe her ears.

…

"Retreat for half a month, don't disturb me."

A few days later, Xu Taiping, who had returned to Qingzhu Residence, hung a wooden plate on the courtyard door.

Because of his performance at the Dragon Gate Meeting, monks often visited him in the past two days.

Xu Taiping was a little overwhelmed and had no choice but to put up this sign.

"Xu Taiping, I just took a look at the directory of the Seven Summits on your desk."

At this time, the white feather turned into a small sparrow and flew to Xu Taiping's shoulder.

"Is there anyone you know?"

Xu Taiping asked curiously.

This list was sent from Xifeng Pavilion the day before yesterday. It briefly introduces the twenty-eight outer disciples participating in the Seven Summits.

"There are several people here. I have heard my father mention it. It is said that they were once disciples on the mountain, but they were expelled from the mountain because they made mistakes. Whether it is their bones or their cultivation, they are not comparable to ordinary outer disciples."

Bai Yu said with some worry.

It has formed a soul contract with Xu Taiping, and both will be prosperous and devastated.

"In terms of cultivation, I am already in the Wangyou Realm."

Xu Taiping said as he walked.

"It's different. You can't use Cang Luan Ring and Ice Breath Technique at Qifeng. They all have their own special skills. It's hard for you to be their opponent with martial arts alone."

Bai Yu continued.

Regarding Xu Taiping's strength, he had actually seen it that day on Danxia Ping, but after getting along with him for this period of time, he had learned that Xu Taiping's Ice Breath Technique and Cangluan Ring both involved some kind of secret. , it is impossible to use it at the Seventh Summit. Under this situation, he is undoubtedly fighting with people in shackles.

"The little guy observes very carefully."

Fairy Lingyue's voice suddenly sounded in Xu Taiping's mind.

Until now, Bai Yu had never known about her existence.

Because of this, Bai Yu, who has keen intuition, regarded her as a secret about Xu Taiping.

"I thought about this two years ago."

Xu Taiping continued to walk and talk.

"You mean, you are already somewhat prepared?"

Bai Yu was a little surprised.

"Um."

Xu Taiping nodded.

"Is it possible that you secretly practiced a technique? That's not right. Most of the techniques Qingxuan Sect practices for its outer disciples are just in name and useless after practice."

Xu Taiping's words made Bai Yu even more confused.

"I did practice another technique, but that was not my preparation for the Seven Peaks Selection in the past two years."

Xu Taiping walked through the back door toward the backyard medicine garden.

"What exactly are your preparations?"

Bai Yu became more and more curious and flew directly in front of Xu Taiping and stopped him.

"Strengthen your body."

Xu Taiping thought for a while and then answered.

He had no intention of hiding it.

"Strengthen your body? All you have spent two years preparing for is just to strengthen your body?"

Bai Yu felt a little weird.

In this world, whether it is a cultivator or a spirit beast like it, they all focus on refining qi rather than body. Some cultivators even think that strengthening the body will hinder the speed of cultivation, so Bai Yu's reaction is so strong.

"Excuse me, if you want to rely on martial arts to win the qualification to enter the Seven Peaks, it is impossible."

Bai Yu said with some disappointment.

Martial artists strengthen their bodies naturally in order to better practice martial arts, so in his opinion, Xu Taiping has indeed taken a crooked path.

Xu Taiping originally didn't want to explain anything to Bai Yu, anyway, he would be able to see it at the Seven Peaks in a while, but at this time, Fairy Lingyue called him:

"Xiao Taiping, you have worn that thing for two years. It's okay to take it off occasionally now."

Hearing this, Xu Taiping thought about it, and then nodded inadvertently.

He actually wanted to confirm the effect of the two years of training, after all, this was the method taught to him by Fairy Lingyue.

...

After a while.

"Boom!!!"

A heavy sound of heavy objects hitting the ground was heard in the backyard of Qingzhuju.

Even the house shook slightly.

Then, Bai Yu exclaimed in disbelief: "You lunatic! You practiced with this thing for two years just to strengthen your body? Aren't you tired? Doesn't it hurt?"

Then, Xu Taiping's calm voice drifted away with the mountain breeze:

"I'm used to it."
