Chapter 141 – What are you afraid of when we have Wu Dalang to hold up the sky for us!


With the announcement of the Dao Mountain Ancient Land roster, Li Hengsheng, knowing that he had made the list, began to diligently consolidate his realm.

Xu Muhai had previously briefed Li Hengsheng on the dangers of the Ghost Devil trial. Therefore, Li Hengsheng understood that if he did not prepare well, he could easily lose his life during the trial.

Other disciples who were to participate also began their meticulous preparations. Li Changqing was also preparing to depart for Zhanhe Residence.

After all, Li Changqing was to lead the team at Zhanhe Residence. Before his departure, Li Changqing received a letter from Li Hengsheng. Seeing what Li Hengsheng had written in the letter, Li Changqing knew that his strategy had been successful.

He was temporarily safe. At the same time, the supplies from Changqing Trading Company for Dao Mountain Ancient Land had also arrived. Plus, those from Zhanhe Residence had already been sent over.

This was also a very important matter for Changqing Trading Company. For this Ghost Devil trial, the entire Changqing Trading Company had been busy for a whole month, focusing on the details, preparing to make a name for the company.

In addition to Xue Qianbai, who was leading the team to the Ghost Devil trial in Dao Mountain Ancient Land, there were also Peak Master Wu Wenyin of the Law Enforcement Peak, Peak Master Situ Baili of Baili Peak, and Pavilion Master Li Jinsong of Floating Image Pavilion.

At this moment, on the square of Floating Image Pavilion, Li Jinsong was distributing supplies to the sixty disciples who were going. When he opened the large box and saw the uniforms inside, even Li Jinsong was stunned on the spot.

Wasn’t this uniform too shabby? What the hell was this exclusive sponsorship from Changqing Trading Company? When the clothes were distributed to the disciples, they all held the clothes with somewhat strange expressions on their faces.

“This time, all the supplies for our Dao Mountain Ancient Land to participate in the Ghost Devil trial are sponsored by Changqing Trading Company, so you have to wear these clothes. It’s also a way for us, the disciples of Dao Mountain Ancient Land, to repay Changqing Trading Company for their sponsorship,” Li Jinsong coughed lightly and said to the many disciples.

In fact, Li Jinsong also felt that the clothes were really ugly. Fortunately, the sponsorship only required the disciples to wear them, not him. Otherwise, Li Jinsong would rather die than go.

“Pavilion Master, wearing this kind of thing is too embarrassing!” A disciple couldn’t help but step forward and say, “Won’t we be laughed at by disciples from other sects? Isn’t this a disgrace to our Dao Mountain Ancient Land?”

“That’s right, the material of this clothing feels good, and it’s very comfortable, but the words on the back are too ugly! Can we tear off the words on the back?” Other disciples also started to complain, and for a moment, the scene turned into a complaint conference.

“Brother Li, don’t you think so?” A disciple from another peak said to Li Hengsheng beside him, “It’s simply too humiliating. I don’t know who runs this Changqing Trading Company, but they came up with such a ridiculous idea. Isn’t this making us Dao Mountain Ancient Land a laughingstock?”

“Cough, cough.” Li Hengsheng pretended to cough twice, blushing and keeping his head down in silence. His father had shares in Changqing Trading Company.

So it could be said that his father ran the company. He himself could accept wearing this uniform, but the other disciples seemed to have some difficulty accepting it.

“Shut up, all of you!” At this moment, a voice exploded in the crowd. The voice was very authoritative.

“Whoever doesn’t want to wear it, go bare-assed!” The person who came out was Zhou Jun. Zhou Jun’s sharp gaze swept over everyone present, “Or, give up your spot to someone who is willing to go. Otherwise, stop blabbering useless things here!” Zhou Jun had quite a reputation among the disciples. Once he spoke, naturally, not many people dared to make a sound.

“Brother Zhou, we were just saying that the clothes are a bit ugly, nothing more.” A disciple quickly laughed and apologized.

“Changqing Trading Company provides us with the expenses, accommodation, pills, and other things needed for the trial. Do they just give you money for nothing? What’s wrong with wearing a piece of clothing?” Zhou Jun shouted angrily, “You don’t even know how to cultivate your strength, but you’ve learned how to act like a human! ” Zhou Jun’s words silenced everyone present.

Then Zhou Jun looked at Li Hengsheng, raising his eyebrows. Li Hengsheng was very grateful to Zhou Jun. Zhou Jun naturally knew that this Changqing Trading Company was Li Hengsheng’s father’s company, and he was afraid that hearing the complaints and insults from the crowd would make Li Hengsheng feel down.

“This uniform looks pretty good.” Zhou Jun was the first to put on the uniform, smiling and saying, “And this uniform is very comfortable, soft, and the outer fabric is also good. Besides, I remind you, the place for the Ghost Devil trial is very cold. If you don’t wear it, no one will care if you freeze to death.” Seeing Zhou Jun take the lead in wearing it, Li Hengsheng also put on the uniform. The other disciples looked at each other and finally put on the uniforms.

Seeing that everyone had put on the uniforms, Li Jinsong nodded. Zhou Jun’s words had saved him a lot of talking.

Then Li Jinsong said, “To participate in the Ghost Devil trial, the sect can only bring some fixed resources in and can’t bring too much. The rest of the things you need to carry yourselves. So it’s necessary for each person to carry a box. The Ghost Devil trial lasts for thirteen days, and the supplies won’t be very abundant. You need to be mentally prepared.”

“Yes!” They had some understanding. According to the disciples who had participated in the Ghost Devil trial before, they were so hungry towards the end that they even had to go out and chop tree bark to eat.

Meanwhile, in Zhanhe Residence in Zhanzhou, Li Changqing had also prepared with his people. The disciples of Zhanhe Residence were also dumbfounded for a long time when they saw these uniforms.

But a single sentence from Li Changqing shut everyone up.

“The disciples of Dao Mountain Ancient Land dress the same as you. If they can wear it, why do you think you’re superior?” Li Changqing’s words brought a sense of balance to the disciples of Zhanhe Residence.

Dao Mountain Ancient Land was a major sect. If their disciples wore these clothes, then even if other sects wanted to ridicule, they would have to ridicule them first.

“Exactly.” Li Changqing said with a smile, “What are you afraid of when we have Wu Dalang to hold up the sky for us!”

“Elder, who is Wu Dalang?” A disciple from Zhanhe Residence couldn’t help but ask.

“Oh, a powerful giant.” Li Changqing replied calmly.

“Ah, I see.” The crowd suddenly understood. Their elder was indeed powerful, even knowing a strong giant.

After distributing all the items, Zhanhe Residence began to load the things that the sect needed to bring. Li Changqing, however, was idle. All the things he needed to bring were stored in his Acceptance of Rings. He brought all his rings with him, carrying supplies that other sects could hardly imagine.

Two days later, a man in purple arrived at Zhanhe Residence. He was from Cangyuan Escort Agency, a power in Tianhai City.

“The Ghost Devil trial is about to begin. I am here on behalf of Tianhai City to take you to the trial site.” The man in purple walked up to Li Changqing and said.

“Alright.” The three elders of Zhanhe Residence stood respectfully behind Li Changqing. Sima Yan had gone into seclusion to heal his wounds, leaving Li Changqing in charge of the Ghost Devil trial.

So, Li Changqing led the three elders and twenty disciples of Zhanhe Residence out of the city with the man in purple.

Outside the city, a huge black crow was already prepared.

“What a big Spirit Beast!” The disciples were amazed at the sight of the huge beast. Even Li Changqing, who had seen such a large bird for the first time, had to admire the wealth of Cangyuan Escort Agency, which could afford to keep such a large Spirit Beast. Just feeding it meat every day must cost a fortune.

“Please get on.” The man in purple said. The location of the Ghost Devil trial was far away, in the Ghost Gorge, so they had to ride the black crow of Cangyuan Escort Agency to get there.

Not only Zhanhe Residence, but all the sects participating in the Ghost Devil trial would be picked up by the people of Cangyuan Escort Agency and taken to the Ghost Gorge.

Then, the person in charge in the Eastern Desolate Land would lead them into the Ghost Devil. After loading all their belongings onto the huge black crow, which could accommodate a hundred people, the disciples of Zhanhe Residence still found it very spacious.

After all, only twenty people from Zhanhe Residence were present. Once everything was ready, the black crow flapped its huge wings and flew off into the distance.

At the same time, the other sects in the Eastern Desolate Land also boarded the black crow and headed for the Ghost Gorge. The weather was getting colder.

The cold wind in the sky was like a knife, extremely cold. But the disciples found that the clothes they were wearing were very warm, and the cold wind couldn’t penetrate them.

The fur inside the clothes was even more insulating.

“These clothes are so warm.” Yin Shuyu, who was sitting in the front, was also surprised. She didn’t want to wear them at first, but they turned out to be very comfortable.

Although Yin Shuyu was a Painter, she was a mid-level Painter, and her strength was equivalent to the Postnatal Realm, so she also came to participate in the Ghost Devil trial.

Li Changqing sat at the front, letting the wild wind blow. Before it could get close to him, it was blocked by his Divine Soul.

So Li Changqing wasn’t cold at all, and he was getting better at controlling his Divine Soul.

Hearing Yin Shuyu’s words, Li Changqing chuckled. Of course, these clothes were warm. They were not just ordinary cotton clothes, but down jackets made by him.

Naturally, they were warmer than ordinary cotton clothes and very comfortable to wear.

“Yin Shuyu.” Li Changqing turned his head to look at Yin Shuyu.

“Elder.” Yin Shuyu came up and asked respectfully, “Did you call me?”

“Nothing much, I was just curious. Do you know someone named Yin Changli?” Li Changqing finally asked the question that had been on his mind.

“Yin Changli?” Yin Shuyu said in surprise, “That’s my younger brother… Elder, do you know where my brother is?” As expected, she was from the royal family of North Cold Country.

“If I’m not mistaken, he should also be participating in this trial.” Li Changqing said calmly.

Li Changqing found the affairs of North Cold Country complicated, but he didn’t want to ask more. Yin Shuyu was a little dazed when she heard this.

She wanted to ask more about Yin Changli, but she didn’t dare to. As long as she knew her brother was still alive, that was enough.

Would her brother also participate in the Ghost Devil trial? Yin Shuyu was very excited for a moment. After flying in the sky for two and a half days, the weather became colder and colder. In front of them were mountains and valleys, which looked very fierce.

“This is the Ghost Gorge.” The man in purple looked ahead and said.

“Ghost Gorge?” Li Changqing looked down and sent out his Divine Soul to explore. He found that there were many powerful presences in the Ghost Gorge.

It was very dangerous inside. It seemed that at any moment, something terrifying could jump out and bite them.

The other disciples also looked down. The aura of the Ghost Gorge made them feel uncomfortable.

The sense of danger made everyone tense.

“Roar!” Suddenly, a sharp sound. Everyone saw a strange bird flying towards them from the sky ahead.The monstrous bird’s enormous claws were extremely conspicuous, seemingly capable of crushing rocks. Its black feathers shimmered like steel, radiating a chilling gleam.

“It’s an Iron Feather Hawk!” An elder from Zhanhe Residence’s face changed. Moreover, it was a mature Iron Feather Hawk.

Its aura was powerful, clearly having reached the innate level. If its massive claws were to strike accurately, it could crush even a high-level innate expert.

“It’s flying towards us.” The elders of Zhanhe Residence were on high alert. In the sky, they were completely at the mercy of the Iron Feather Hawk, putting them at a disadvantage.

The Iron Feather Hawk was now close. The man in purple frowned, his cultivation was just barely at the innate level, he had no way to deal with this creature.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!” The Iron Feather Hawk suddenly spread its wings, its black feathers instantly flying like blades, the sound of breaking through the air mixed with astonishing power.

Extremely sharp. It could pierce through a person. At this moment, a sword cry sounded, and Li Changqing made his move. Two long swords flew out of the scabbard, the sword qi filled the air, instantly shattering all the feathers.

“Slash!” With a slash, Li Changqing moved his fingers. The Surprising Gale Sword descended like a sword rainbow, like a falling meteor, directly killing the Iron Feather Hawk on the spot, blood splattering across the sky.

“Return.” Li Changqing spoke indifferently, and the two swords flew back into the scabbard. The scabbard also closed directly.

This scene made all the disciples of Zhanhe Residence dazzled. It was too cool! Just a flick of his fingers, and he killed a mature Iron Feather Hawk with a single sword strike, it was too powerful.

Originally, they didn’t have much of an impression of this new elder, but this move directly won their hearts.

The three elders were also shocked. Worthy of being the Qinglian Sword Sovereign. This strength made them feel more secure about this trip.

Li Changqing’s control over the Seven Swords of Qinglian was becoming more and more proficient, and his control over the Seven Killings Qinglian Sword Formation had also improved.

If he were to fight with Zhao Beiming now, Li Changqing felt that Zhao Beiming might not be able to escape unscathed, at least he would lose a layer of skin.

“Being able to see the Qinglan Sword Sovereign in action is really lucky.” At this moment, a voice came, the voice was particularly rough, but it was very far away, the voice echoed through the sky.

Li Changqing looked sideways and saw that in the far distance, a black crow was flying towards him. On the crow, a man stood on the peak.

He had an iron sword on his back. He was smiling at him.
