If one's ability is insufficient, one cannot even walk through.
No wonder Ba Ling Sect Disciples all carry a strong Evil Qi on them.
This Evil Qi is all accumulated from constant fighting.
Ba Ling Sect's Refining Saint Wall is on Zongshi Ridge within the sect.
To ascend Zongshi Ridge and comprehend the Refining Saint Wall, one must achieve a top-three ranking in Ba Ling Sect's Feng Fan Battle.
The Feng Fan Battle is a challenge competition for Foundation Establishment Initial Stage Cultivators from various peaks of Ba Ling Sect.
After more than an hour, Liu Boli spoke from inside the Golden Toad.
"I advise you not to go to Ba Ling Sect."
"Why?"
"This Zeng Zifang is a big tiger, ready to devour you whole, leaving not even a single hair."
"Does she dare to lay hands on a Cultivator from the Upper Road?"
"You say you are from the Upper Road, and she believes it? She's just like you, pretending to believe it."
"Master, you know my purpose in going to Ba Ling Sect. Why is she using every means to make me go?"
"Listening to her conversation with Zeng Ruohai just now, she is luring you for three reasons. First, she spent a lot buying soul weapons and Puppets for her younger brother, and she plans to get it back from you, this Little Peddler. Since you looked at both soul weapons and Puppets, you must have a lot in your pocket."
This was clearly a plan to kill for treasure, to murder for wealth.
Qian Duoduo curled his lip.
"Second, whether you are from the Upper Road or not, she wants to use your identity to strike at an opponent in the sect named Zhao Yanran."
"Old Liu, Zhao Yanran must be a woman, and a similarly beautiful one."
In wars between women, they like to use others as weapons.
Qian Duoduo recalled the content on the Jade Slip Zeng Zifang gave him. "That's right, the Old Ancestor of Nose Peak is surnamed Zhao. This Zhao Yanran must be related to Zhao Family Old Ancestor."
"Third, she genuinely wants Ba Ling Sect's Disciples to buy some good Magic Treasures from you, especially the Disciples of her Nose Peak."
This woman's schemes are too deep!
Qian Duoduo only retorted her once, met her twice, and she wants to put him to death, even wanting to peel three layers of skin off him.
What is outwardly beautiful as a flower, but inwardly venomous as a snake and scorpion? She is!
She is still at the Early Stage Golden Core cultivation, and Qian Duoduo might not necessarily be able to defeat her.
If inside Ba Ling Sect, her paternal grandfather is a Nascent Soul Great Perfection, even if he could defeat her, he wouldn't be able to escape.
Thinking of this, Qian Duoduo said to Liu Boli in the Golden Toad: "Hmm, let's not go. There are too many Old Ancestors in Ba Ling Sect; we can't afford to provoke them."
Liu Boli looked up at Qian Duoduo.
"Don't want to go anymore?"
"Going there, it's highly possible I'll end up without even a corpse."
"Does Ba Ling Sect have a Refining Saint Wall? One can comprehend the mysteries of Sacred Artifacts!"
Qian Duoduo took a long time to process before he reacted—
"Old Liu, you want to go?"
"As an Artifact Refiner, no one can refuse the temptation of Sacred Artifacts."
Liu Boli stroked his snow-white beard.
"Since Master wants to go, then I am willing to throw myself into the tiger's den."
Qian Duoduo grinned.
Liu Boli's long roundabout way was actually just to remind Qian Duoduo to be careful of the dangers, and that when following Zeng Zifang, he must be extra vigilant.
Regardless of whether it was the fake identity of a Little Peddler or the true identity of Jin Buhuan, if exposed in Ba Ling Sect, it would be a near-death experience.
Early the next morning, Zeng Zifang came to knock on the door.
Qian Duoduo opened the door, and behind Zeng Zifang stood a pale-faced Zeng Ruohai.
"Brother Qian, let's go!" Zeng Zifang was in a very good mood.
"This is?" Qian Duoduo pointed at Zeng Ruohai and deliberately asked.
"My younger brother, Zeng Ruohai."
"Brother Zeng." Qian Duoduo cupped his hands towards Zeng Ruohai.
Zeng Ruohai's face was cold, treating Qian Duoduo as if he were nothing, twisting his head to look elsewhere.
A Ninth Level of Qi Condensation peddler, no matter where he came from, would not earn his respect.
"Let's go, I'm really looking forward to the days after arriving at Ba Ling Sect."
Qian Duoduo displayed the confidence of an Upper Road Cultivator, not minding his coldness in the slightest.
His goal was the Refining Saint Wall.
When they left the Ke Liu Inn, the attendant who had taken Qian Duoduo's money, seeing Qian Duoduo successfully accompany Zeng Zifang, quietly gave him a thumbs-up.
