94: Chapter 95 Arrival at the Myriad Sounds Sect

From the foot of the mountain to the mountain gate, there were thousands of massive jade stone steps, each engraved with exquisite patterns of various Yao Beasts.

At regular intervals, massive stone statues of Yao Beasts appeared, their gazes fierce, staring straight at the arriving Cultivators.

All Cultivators, except for Purple Mansion Cultivators, were forbidden from flying directly over the Sect; instead, all lower-level Cultivators had to gather at the marble plaza at the foot of the mountain.

Whether you were a low-level Qi Refining Cultivator or a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who had formally stepped onto the path of the Dao, everyone had to ascend the jade stone steps one by one.

Upon reaching the mountain gate, one still had to undergo a detailed investigation before being allowed to enter the massive Sect.

Overall, the Sect gave people a feeling of being unattainable and awe-inspiring.

It solemnly declared one thing to all arriving Cultivators: Miaoyin Sect was the heaven of the entire Song State, and any power must obediently submit.

Do not have any unrealistic delusions, and even more so, do not think about establishing your own faction.

When the flying boat slowly landed on the plaza at the foot of the mountain, Chen Fan once again concealed his aura, bringing it to the 12th Level of Qi Refining, giving people a very ordinary impression.

Yan Xue did the same; as someone heavily suppressed by the Yan Family, she was even less willing to show her true strength.

For this Alchemy Conference, she only wanted to accompany her husband and go through the motions.

But Bi Wenqin was already a long-renowned Foundation Establishment Cultivator and did not deliberately disguise herself, remaining at the Peak Foundation Establishment stage.

She understood Chen Xuan's intentional disguise very well; after all, as a Matrilocal son-in-law of the Qin Family, being too flamboyant would only cause unnecessary trouble.

"Matrilocal son-in-law Chen, you kept us waiting for a long time."

An extremely grating voice rang in his ears; these two were none other than Qin Shan and Qin Yuan, who had escorted them at the beginning.

The two had originally intended to scold him severely, but upon noticing the Foundation Establishment Cultivator standing beside Chen Fan, their expressions changed drastically, and they dared not look up.

"Hmph, what is the meaning of this? Alchemist Chen is my friend. Even if I were to kill you, I presume your Old Ancestor wouldn't say much."

Her words were cold and sharp, like a knife, making the two tremble with fear.

"This Junior dares not; I misspoke earlier, I ask for Alchemist Chen's forgiveness."

Qin Shan and Qin Yuan looked terrified and anxious, bowing repeatedly and retreating.

But at the same time, their hatred for Chen Fan deepened by another notch.

Chen Fan just smiled faintly, unleashing a burst of thick magic power that sent the two tumbling to the ground with a thud.

This scene naturally attracted the curiosity of quite a few Cultivators.

One of them noticed Bi Wenqin approaching, his eyes lit up, a look of joy appearing on his face as he hurried over to greet her.

"Greetings, Fairy Bi. I wonder if you have read the Jade Slip I sent you last time?"

The speaker was an extremely refined and handsome Cultivator. After bowing slightly, his gaze was full of eagerness.

Bi Wenqin's expression became somewhat awkward upon hearing this. She was usually busy with Alchemy and had no time to read unimportant Jade Slips; who knew what was written inside?

However, not wanting to appear rude, she just smiled and nodded slightly.

The refined and handsome Cultivator's eyes gleamed with great joy upon hearing this.

However, noticing Chen Fan standing to the side, he felt quite displeased.

"Fairy Bi, after the Alchemy Conference ends, we can discuss this in detail. My father will personally come then."

Bi Wenqin was confused after hearing this, but seemingly guessing what it was about, she slowly said, "However, this Fairy has already announced to all sides that I will not discuss marriage until I enter the Purple Mansion Realm. Fellow Daoist Hou, have you not heard?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the refined and handsome Cultivator's expression stiffened slightly, and a flash of disappointment crossed his face.

"I have heard of it, but our Hou Family is powerful. My father has already stepped into the Purple Mansion Realm. Once you marry into the Hou Family in the future, you will be the second Purple Mansion Cultivator. Not only will your status be very high, but you can also enjoy the Purple Mansion Spiritual Vein."

"You are overthinking it. You are currently only at the 3rd Level of Foundation Establishment. Let's talk about it after you advance to the Purple Mansion Realm in the future."

Having said this, Bi Wenqin's patience had already been exhausted, and her face was full of displeasure.

"You..."

The refined and handsome Cultivator's expression was equally ugly, but he dared not say anything more; after all, the difference in Realm was there, and quite a few Cultivators were already observing them.

"Alchemist Chen, let us proceed to the mountain gate together now!" Bi Wenqin's beautiful eyes flickered, her gaze full of eagerness.

Several nearby Cultivators saw this scene, their faces full of mockery.

"The Young Lord of the Hou Family has quite the idea. If he marries a Foundation Establishment female Cultivator capable of Alchemy, won't life be much easier in the future? He wouldn't have to ponder every day how to obtain resources to Cultivate."

"Indeed, this kind of 'soft rice' is truly delicious; wake up every day and have Medicinal Pills to eat. It won't be long before he can attempt to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm."

Laughter rang out from the crowd from time to time, and the refined and handsome Cultivator looked at Chen Fan with even more hatred.

Chen Fan was already familiar with this expression and gaze, and he shook his head helplessly in his heart.

As more and more Cultivators gathered on the plaza, everyone looked toward the thousands of jade stone steps in unison.

Walking up to the mountain gate step by step would naturally consume quite a bit of time, and although they had complaints in their hearts, they dared not express them.

Several hours later, Chen Fan, Yan Xue, and Bi Wenqin finally arrived at the mountain gate.

They handed over their tokens, and after careful verification, they successfully entered.

Crossing the mountain gate, a massive plaza came into view.

Immediately, several Sect Disciples walked forward, bowed, and greeted them, their attitudes exceptionally kind.

"Fellow Daoists, my name is Zhao Xuan. Various refreshments have already been prepared in the Qi Refining Hall. Please follow us to the Qi Refining Hall."

The speaker was a Disciple with outstanding temperament; his words were gentle and made one feel as if bathed in a spring breeze. His cultivation level was at the Peak Qi Refining Stage.

Standing in front of Bi Wenqin was a female Foundation Establishment Disciple, who slowly said to the group of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, "Fellow Daoists, the spiritual tea in the Foundation Establishment Hall has been prepared. Please, this way."

Clearly, the Sect treated the arriving Cultivators differently.

Bi Wenqin looked regretful upon hearing this, and after some small talk with Chen Fan, she headed toward the Foundation Establishment Hall.

This scene attracted the attention of even more Cultivators, who were very curious about the relationship between that person and the long-renowned Bi Wenqin.

Not long after, the group of Qi Refining Cultivators quickly arrived at the massive Qi Refining Hall.

The tables were already filled with various spiritual teas, spiritual rice, spiritual vegetables, spiritual wine, and more.

"Fellow Daoists, you have traveled far and wide to get here; thank you for your hard work. These refreshments are a welcome banquet from the Sect for all of you. Once you have recovered your Origin Qi, the Alchemy competition will officially begin tomorrow."

After looking around, Zhao Xuan began to count the number of people.

After counting, he showed a trace of displeasure toward the Cultivators who had not arrived on time.

He said coldly to another Cultivator beside him, "Unexpectedly, there are still Cultivators who dare to ignore the Sect's decree. Hand these people over to the Law Enforcement Hall to be apprehended later."

"Rest assured, Senior Brother, I will handle it right away."

Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of relief.

Just as they were in a state of panic, a powerful aura rushed toward them. A tall female Cultivator walked in slowly, her gaze carefully landing on the group of arriving Qi Refining Cultivators.
