258 The Most Important Thing Is Participation
Dong Xi could not help but smile. “It’s fine. The most important thing is to participate. Friendship comes first.”
What a coincidence. Dong Xi was ranked 100th in the Qi Refinement stage, while Senior Brother Xiong Ye was ranked 100th in the Foundation Establishment stage. Both of them were at the bottom, and this made the two of them appreciate each other.
Xiong Ye did not really care about the ranking since he had already tried his best. He took out two spirit fruits and gave them to Dong Xi. Xiong Ye said, “Junior Sister, keep this well.”
Although this spirit fruit was not anything too great, it was not cheap either.
“Senior Brother, I don’t want it,” said Dong Xi immediately. “If you need it to refine pills, just send it to the pharmacy hall.”
“No, I didn’t ask you to help me refine the pill. I just wanted to thank you,” Xiong Ye said, embarrassed.
“Huh?” Dong Xi doubtfully said. “You’re thanking me?”
“Yeah!” Xiong Ye said. “When I competed with Duan Leng the other day, someone placed bets to bet on you. I’m not familiar with Duan Leng, so I placed all my money on you. I never thought that… I’d made a huge profit.”
Dong Xi was instantly petrified. She felt as if she had missed out on a hundred million.
“Senior Brother, if there’s such a good thing in the future, you must, must help me place a bet,” said Dong Xi with a pained expression.
Xiong Ye laughed and said, “Junior Sister, you alchemists shouldn’t be lacking in money, right?”
“Who said so?” Dong Xi said with a righteous tone. “Those are just rumors! Besides, who would mind having too many spirit stones?”
“That’s right.” Xiong Ye nodded. “I’ll definitely help Junior Sister place a bet if such a thing happens again in the future. I hope you can create another glorious achievement.”
In the end, Xiong Ye still gave her the two spirit fruits. Dong Xi also gave Xiong Ye two bottles of medicinal pills. Dong Xi said, “Senior Brother, keep this well, it will definitely come in handy. I don’t have much else, but I have a lot of pills. If you meet the people of the Green Cloud Sect, give them a big surprise!”
“You’re right, Junior Sister.” Xiong Ye nodded. “In that case, I’ll accept it.”
As the two of them chatted, almost everyone had arrived.
This time, the leader was the relatively steady Master Yi Kun. In order to make his disciples listen to him, Yi Kun even borrowed the prison tower from the Sect Master.
The prison tower was a small black room that blocked the five senses of the divine sense. Those who entered could only meditate and do nothing else.
The few troublemakers who went this time immediately became well-behaved when they saw Yi Kun.
In fact, Yi Kun could easily take care of these disciples. The reason why he brought the Prison Tower was just to scare the new disciples.
Dong Xi stood beside the Eldest and Second Senior Brothers and looked at Master Yi Kun. When she noticed that everyone had quieted down, Dong Xi said in a low voice, “Senior Brother, what’s that in Yi Kun’s hand?”
Liang Yan looked at Song Qingfeng and said, “I’ve never experienced it before. I’ll let your Second Senior Brother tell you.”
Dong Xi instantly understood what Liang Yan meant.
With one look, it was clear that Second Senior Brother had been forced into it before.
Dong Xi looked at song Qingfeng with a smile.
Song Qingfeng put away his fan and said with an unnatural expression, “How would I know? I’m the pride of the sect, how could the Sect Master lock me in that thing?”
Liang Yan looked at Song Qingfeng with a meaningful look and did not say anything. Song Qingfeng gave Liang Yan a warning look, telling him not to talk nonsense.
Liang Yan laughed contemptuously. He looked at the Prison Tower in Yi Kun’s hand and said, “It is said that there are 81 spaces in that tower. Those who go in will have their divine sense and five senses blocked, and they can’t cultivate until they come out.”
Song Qingfeng immediately let out a grunt.
Then, he shut up immediately. Song Qingfeng looked at the Prison Tower, still a little scared.
After a moment of silence, Song Qingfeng said again, “If it’s as simple as you say, it’s really not scary. The main thing is that there are illusionary figures inside, chanting incantations in front of you day and night.”
After saying that, Song Qingfeng felt Liang Yan and Dong Xi sizing him up. The two of them looked exactly the same.
Song Qingfeng coughed awkwardly and said, “I was told by someone else…”
Liang Yan gave Dong Xi a look, and Dong Xi immediately smiled.
Dong Xi had a preliminary understanding of the use of this Prison Tower. In the future, she would definitely be obedient and be a good disciple of the sect.
Daoist Yi Kun took out an airboat. This airboat was of a much higher grade than the one Dong Xi and Ke Xin had been on.
The golden airboat had a dragon’s head at the front and a dragon’s tail at the back. It was surrounded by arrays and had four floors. Those who knew about it would be going for a competition, but those who did not would think it was a vacation.
Daoist Yi Kun took out a top-grade spirit stone and threw it into the dragon’s head. The dragon’s head let out a long cry, and Dong Xi instinctively used her spiritual energy to protect her ears.
“Board the ship in an orderly manner,” Daoist Yi Kun shouted.
At this moment, Dong Xi’s mind returned to her body. She was led by her two Senior Brothers and they rushed towards the airboat.
