"The current state of the Divine Profound Sect is weak, coupled with the provocation from Phoenix Mountain, there is no doubt that it has become worse off, so I have decided …" Huo Zhen's solemn gaze swept across all the disciples present, "Restart the trial monument and let the elite disciples enter to cultivate."

As soon as Huo Zhen finished speaking, the two elders on his left and right stood up in unison, "Sovereign, you can't!"

Huo Zhen waved his hand, "I have already decided that the Divine Profound Sect will restart the trial monument at all costs."

"Sis, what's a trial monument?" Gold, on the other hand, didn't have any burdens, so he asked curiously.

"How would I know?" Huang Ying casually replied. She was also very curious as she had never heard of a trial monument before.

Zi Ling heard the conversation between the two, but her expression remained unchanged. Her gaze landed on the solemn Huo Zhen.

"Sovereign, the trial tablet has already been damaged. Whether or not it can be opened is still unknown. If the strength poured in is too great, then the gains will not make up for the losses." A white-haired elder tried to persuade her with a sigh.

Huo Zhen's gaze became heavy, and his tone became softer, "Elder Lin's worries are not without reason, but the Divine Profound Sect is going to fall from grace soon, and if this goes on, the Divine Profound Sect will be defeated sooner or later. Thus, I have decided to personally sacrifice the sect's treasure to open the trial monument."

When the few Great Elders heard that Huo Zhen wanted to personally activate the trial monument, their faces all changed.

"Sect Leader, even if we have to offer sacrifices to the Sect, we have these old bones. Sect Leader should never personally offer them up." Elder Lin continued.

Huo Zhen shook his head, wanting to say something but hesitating. In the end, he waved his hand, "Elders can stay here for now, the rest of the disciples can leave first …"

For a time, only the sect master and several elders remained in the grand hall.

"Sect Leader, with just you as a sacrifice, the loss of your cultivation base is small, and your life is in danger …" Another Elder Hong said in disapproval.

"I think it would be better if all of us elders offered up our treasures together. This way, the risk will be lower." As Elder Lin said this, he turned to look at the other Elders, nodding his head in agreement.

However, Huo Zhen did not agree, "I understand the feelings of the various elders, but now that the human race is in turmoil, the Beast race is also constantly attacking us, the Immortal Mystical Sect still needs to rely on the elders, if there are any losses, it will only be me."

"Sovereign …"

"This matter is decided. Elders, please gather the elite disciples in front of the trial monument in the morning."

Zi Ling did not know what was going to happen in the hall next. Her sense of belonging towards the Divine Profound Sect was not that strong, and she merely wanted to find a place to hide from the wind and rain. Therefore, no matter what decision Huo Zhen and the others made, they couldn't lift her mood.

"Junior Sister Ye …" Zhao Ting rushed to catch up with them. Zi Ling, Huang Ying, and gold turned their heads at the same time.

The instant she turned her head, Zi Ling also saw Chu Feng. He was still dressed in black, his expression was ice-cold, and there was no dust in his eyes. It was as if she didn't see them at all as he walked past them …

Zi Ling naturally retracted her gaze and looked at Zhao Ting. "Senior Brother, is something the matter?"

"Master will not change his decision. In the morning of the next day, Master will restart the trial monument, and at that time, all of us will enter. Master said that although he accepted you as his disciple, he had not done so for a day. He asked me to take good care of you in the trial monument and also asked if you had any needs. "

Zi Ling stared at Zhao Ting's face for a long time before she suddenly asked, "Is he talking about some matters behind the scenes?"

Zhao Ting's expression darkened and he didn't say anything for a long time. After a long while, he said, "The trial monument has been severely damaged, so I need Master and Father to sacrifice my sect's treasure in order to restart it for a moment. As for my personal treasure, if I am to sacrifice it, I will lose my cultivation, if not, if not my meridians will be severed, and I will die!"

"Oh, got it …" In her heart, she admired Huo Zhen's selflessness. Compared to her former master, Zi Xiao, she was like heaven and earth. However, she didn't invest too much emotion into the relationship between master and disciple, so she didn't feel anything else.

Zhao Ting opened his mouth and only said, "Is there anything you need?"

Zi Ling shook her head, "Not at the moment, but I will be looking for you in the future."

"Since we have to restart the trial monument in the future, then Gold and I will first go home." Huang Ying said to Zi Ling and Zhao Ting.

Zhao Ting nodded, "Alright, I'll head back too. Let's go together later." After saying that, the three of them turned their gazes towards Zi Ling. They were about to ask her if she was going back home.

Zi Ling turned around and waved her hand. "See you in the future. I will head back to cultivate in seclusion."

She came down from the mountain peak and was just about to take a detour around the Celestial Dragon Pool when a gentle voice suddenly came from behind her, "Junior Sister Ye."

Zi Ling knew who it was, so she casually raised her head to look at him, not saying a word.

Although Liu Shuang was not happy, she didn't show any anger or embarrassment on her face. She walked over and said, "Junior Apprentice Sister is indeed talented. Even under the encirclement of the Acacia Faction, she was able to safely escape."

"Are you trying to get back at me?" Zi Ling smiled slightly, "I don't think that our relationship has reached that stage."

Liu Shuang's expression stiffened as she heard Zi Ling say, "Speak frankly, I don't have that much time."

Liu Shuang Shuang quickly revealed a smile and leaned in. "I'm just curious, why do I feel like you're not the same person as the one being locked up?"

Zi Ling stared at her and laughed. "You want to know?"

Just as Liu Shuang was about to reply, she heard Zi Ling continue, "But I don't want to tell you."

Liu Shuang Shuang finally couldn't hold it in anymore. Her face was filled with anger as she said, "Ye Ling, don't think that you're so amazing. If you get caught, you'll have to lower your head and not dare to resist."

"Heh …" "You make it sound as though you have resisted." Zi Ling was getting impatient. "Please say something that makes sense. It's wicked to waste other people's time!"

"You! "Why would Big Brother Chu marry a woman like you?" Liu Shuang stretched out her slender finger and said with trembling fury.

Zi Ling faintly smiled and extended her hand to grasp the handle of her finger. "Remember, I don't like others pointing at me like this. Next time, blood might splash out …" Without looking at Liu Shuang Shuang's expression, he took a step back and brushed past her.

After walking a few steps, Zi Ling suddenly stopped. Without turning her head back, she said, "That's right, other people might not take a liking to something that you think is a treasure. I'll trouble you not to be so disgusting!"

This time, she left without a care for the burning gaze behind her.

Liu Shuang bit her lips and did not move. After an unknown period of time, she finally calmed the raging anger in her heart. She took a deep breath and turned around …

Yet, he suddenly saw a tall and straight figure standing right in front of him. The expression on his face was ice-cold, causing others to be unable to guess what he was thinking.

"Senior Brother, you …" How long have you been here? " Liu Shuang thought of her conversation with the Purple Ribbon and was immediately overjoyed.

Chu Feng retracted his ice-cold gaze from the direction of the purple silk and looked at Liu Shuang, "I just arrived!"

Liu Shuang's heart skipped a beat. Not giving up, she said, "Just now, Ye Ling …" As he said this, he acted as if he was wronged.

Although Chu Feng hid it well, the anger that flashed through his eyes was caught by Liu Shuang. She secretly rejoiced in her heart and immediately said, "Senior Brother, no matter what she said about me, it doesn't matter. But she absolutely shouldn't have said that about you! "You are her fiance …"

Chu Feng's expression turned even colder, "She has nothing to do with me. Don't speak nonsense in the future." After he had finished, he turned around and left in big strides.

Liu Shuang knew Chu Feng very well. It could be seen that his words and actions were out of the ordinary. It meant that her senior was angry.

She was even more happy as she turned her head to look in the direction that the purple silk ribbon left in. She no longer had the anger of being ridiculed by the purple silk ribbon.

On the first night they returned to the sect, Zi Ling lived a peaceful life. She did not look forward to nor did she resist the monolith, and only calmly waited for the coming of the next morning.

As the sun rose, Zi Ling woke up from her meditative state and heard someone knocking on the gate. She thought it was gold, but when she walked to the door, she discovered it was an ordinary disciple.

He told her that someone had sent something for her to meet him at the door. After receiving this news, Zi Ling's first reaction was that Qi Hao had kept his promise and sent some people to deliver spirit stones to her. She also needed this batch of spirit stones.

He hurried to the entrance of the mountain and saw a slender back. At the sound of footsteps, the other person turned his head and gave her a polite nod.

The man didn't smile. He said with a serious expression, "On Master's order, send three carts of ores."

Zi Ling looked around, "Where is the ore?"

The person continued, "Too many people and your master said that this ore is best not to let anyone see it. Otherwise, it will bring you unnecessary trouble."

Violet Ling nodded. She hadn't expected Qi Hao to think for her. She suddenly thought of Qi Hao's retainers. None of them were weak, and this person in front of her seemed to be quite strong as well, but she had never seen him before.

"You're Qi Hao's retainer?"

The other party was somewhat surprised. He did not look at Zi Ling and simply lowered his eyes and nodded. "Yes!"

"Okay, bring this back to him. Tell him that since he keeps his promise, I will naturally give it to him as promised."

Only now did Wu Di raise his head to look at Zi Ling. Because of the mission that Qi Fu had given him, he was very clear on the capabilities of this peerlessly beautiful woman.

Zi Ling didn't pay attention to Wu Di. She passed a bottle of pills to the other party, "Alright, take me to see the ore."

The two of them left the mountain gate and walked for about a mile. Wu Di walked to a bush and easily pushed out three carts of ores. "Everyone is here. Take a look. If there are no problems, I will go back and report."

Zi Ling touched the spirit stones on the carriage and nodded in satisfaction. "You can go. I am very satisfied." Qi Hao was still a gentleman, and what he promised was not a slip of the tongue, and the weight was still very high. Doing business with him, although he had been slaughtered, it wasn't too bad.

After Wu Di left for a while, Zi Ling was worried about not having any Cosmic Bag, so where should she hide these things? At this moment, the sound of a tiger's roar came from the forest.

"Miss …" Ling'er's voice rang out from behind him.

Zi Ling turned around and looked past Ling Er at the gigantic Tiger Arrow Tail Tiger behind her. Its fur was emitting a faint blue light. A smile gradually appeared on her face.

Roar …

The Tail Tiger swooped down with glee, its huge body creating a whirlwind.
