As for the other one, he was Jing Yueming from the thousand blades sect. Jing Taiyang had tried to win him over. The two of them were cousins. In addition, Jing Yueming’s situation in the thousand blades sect was much worse than Jing Taiyang’S. He was basically on the verge of being kicked out at any time, so he was easily persuaded by Jing Taiyang.
Apart from these two, the other targets were still in the stage of getting close to each other, and they were still thousands of miles away from actually roping in the other.
This was very normal. After all, everyone was usually cultivating. Even if they were fellow disciples, they rarely had the opportunity to get together. There were even fewer opportunities for them to have a real friendship. Under such circumstances, the probability of meeting the prerequisite of resenting the primordial Alliance was naturally very low. Moreover, the people of the primordial Alliance were extremely vigilant. If they did not have enough friendship before and tried to get close to them for no reason, it would be as difficult as ascending to the sky. It was reasonable to only be able to win over two people in a month.
Time passed in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed since the prospective disciples had entered the transfer islands. On this day, for the first time ever, Xin Yijie gathered everyone on the small island where the transfer array was located. Although this Island wasn’t very large and was only a tiny spot compared to the real islands, it was more than enough for a hundred or so people to stand on.
After everyone had arrived, Xin Yijie finally spoke up,””Everyone, after three months, I believe that the prospective disciples of the various ancient sects have already familiarized themselves with the environment here, and their strength has also improved by leaps and bounds. Many of them are already on the verge of breaking through, and this old man would like to congratulate you all here, but everyone must continue to work hard and try to break through to Foundation establishment as soon as possible. Don’t let down the expectations of the senior brothers of your respective sects.”
“Yes!” The crowd replied in unison.
“There’s one more thing that’s also the main reason why I’ve gathered everyone here today. I believe everyone should have heard about the primordial trial by fire after so long, right?” Xin Yijie asked.
Everyone nodded their heads. This was not a secret. Even the prospective disciples of the secular world could find out about it from the senior brother leading the team or other senior brothers. After all, the primordial trial was something that all the disciples of the primordial Alliance were looking forward to the most. Someone would mention it every few days, so it was impossible not to know about it.
“Very good. So, from tomorrow onwards, we will start to prepare for the archaic trials.” Xin Yijie announced.
“Prepare? What kind of preparations?” Everyone could not help but look at each other. Could it be that he was reminding everyone to improve their strength before the ancient trial began?
It was said that the archaic trials this time were extraordinary. If one’s strength was insufficient, rashly joining was no different from courting death. Of course, for the prospective disciples, the most important thing was to break through to the foundation establishment realm. Otherwise, they would not be considered a member of the archaic Alliance at all. As for the archaic trials, that was even more nonsense.
“Don’t misunderstand. The preparation I’m talking about isn’t just for you, but for all of us. This is because we need spirit Jade to activate the teleportation array to enter the primordial age. This teleportation array has been sealed for a long time, and if we want to reopen it, we’ll need a huge amount of spirit Jade. If we can’t meet this condition, the teleportation array won’t be able to be activated, and everyone’s primordial age trial will be ruined.” Xin Yijie explained the situation to everyone.
“Spiritual Jade? Where Can I Get this?” This time, not only the prospective disciples, but even the disciples of the ancient sects who were on training were looking at each other. They were not the higher-ups of their sects, nor did they have any deep background. How could they get such a rare thing as spiritual Jade, and it was not a small amount at that?
“Don’t worry. According to the records of the primordial Alliance, there’s a spirit mine under the sea of these islands. Although it’s not easy to mine it, I believe it shouldn’t be a problem for you. So, from tomorrow on, everyone here has to volunteer to mine spiritual Jade at the spirit mine at the bottom of the sea. Otherwise, you’re not qualified to participate in the primordial trial. Do you understand?” Xin Yijie said.
“Elder Xin, are we going to confiscate all the spiritual jades we’ve mined?” Someone raised his hand and asked. This was also a question that almost all the disciples were concerned about. Even if they didn’t mention the primordial trial, the underwater spirit mine alone was a great temptation for them. If the spirit Jade mined could be owned by them, it was believed that most people would never be lazy.
“That’s not it. Considering everyone’s enthusiasm, as long as more than one piece of spiritual Jade is excavated that day, the excess will belong to everyone.” Xin Yijie chuckled. This rule sounded crude at first, and there seemed to be many loopholes to be exploited. However, this was only a temporary solution, and it was enough to motivate everyone. He believed that they would be able to collect quite a number of spiritual jades in the end.
Sure enough, everyone’s eyes lit up when they heard this rule. If there was more than one piece, it would belong to them. This condition did not sound harsh at all. It was still very tempting.
However, there were still a few people frowning. Many of them were on the verge of a breakthrough, and it was a waste of time to participate in underwater mining at this time. After all, mining might not necessarily yield any gains, and a day of hard work was likely to be in vain.
“Of course, in order to take care of everyone’s cultivation, the undersea mining will be divided into two groups. It will be changed every three days. If you don’t want to go when it’s your turn, you can skip it as long as you pay one spiritual Jade. Any objections?” Xin Yijie asked.
Everyone shook their heads. This arrangement was already very humane, and it would be difficult to raise any objections. Moreover, if they didn’t participate, they wouldn’t have the qualifications to participate in the immemorial trial. No one dared to take this risk.
“Hold on!” At this moment, Xue Jianfeng suddenly stood up and glanced at Lin Yi’s group with bad intentions,””Since everyone is going, shouldn’t these people go too?”
“They aren’t disciples of the archaic Alliance in name, and they didn’t say that they had to participate in the archaic trials. Naturally, they don’t have to go.” Xin Yijie said, shaking his head.
Song Lingshan and Wu Chentian were on the verge of breaking through to the Foundation Stage, so they naturally wouldn’t go to the mines. Just like Xin Yijie said, they didn’t plan on going to the test yet, and this mining business had nothing to do with them.
“No relationship? How could it not be related? They occupy the island’s cultivation resources for nothing, but when it’s time for them to contribute, they don’t care at all. I’m afraid this won’t convince the public, right?” Xue Jianfeng snorted.
“But …” Xin Yijie still wanted to argue, but the other ancient sect disciples were already starting to grumble. All of them had to work hard to mine, but Lingshan and the others were free and unfettered. This was really annoying.
At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly stopped Xin Yijie. Under everyone’s gazes, he slowly walked to Xue Jianfeng and said,”You want all of us to mine?”
“It’s only natural!” Xue Jianfeng said confidently.
“Good, what you said makes sense.” Lin Yi nodded and suddenly threw out a big box. Everyone’s eyes were blinded by the sight of it-it was full of spiritual Jade!
“This … This …” Xue Jianfeng and the others were dumbfounded, unable to speak for a long time.
“Here, these are all leave requests. If they’re not enough, just ask me.” Lin Yi smiled faintly. Lingshan’s group was big, but one piece was enough for one whole trip. This big chest of spiritual Jade was enough for a few months of leave.
Xue Jianfeng was dumbfounded. Ziyu looked at him and raised her head in disdain.”We have a lot of money, so we’re just that willful.” (To be continued.) ”
