Under the direction of a middle-aged woman, everyone lined up and walked past the old man one by one. The old man simply stretched out two fingers to touch each persons wrist and said "Very good!" before gesturing for the next person to come over.

  Because the elder only needs one glance to distinguish whether the cultivation of the crowd has reached the 11th layer of refining Qi. And with a slight inspection of the root bone, he can infer the opponents true age. Bone age cannot be deceived.

  When it was Zhao Dis turn, the old man unexpectedly let out a "hmm" and muttered to himself: "Its actually a Five Spirit Root, and he can cultivate up to the eleventh layer before the age of twenty-three. Truly rare!" After finishing speaking, as if unwilling to give up, he grasped Zhao Dis other wrist again, only then saying "Very good!" indicating that Zhao Di had passed.

  After the old man finished detecting everyones bone age, the middle-aged woman took them to a place called "Nourishing Heart Hall". In the hall, there was a female nun with a beautiful figure, wearing a white veil, and speaking in a voice as sweet as heavenly music. She asked each person a few questions individually.

  Zhao Di was asked about his name, whether he practiced scattered cultivation, whether he had a family or sect background, and whether he had practiced demonic dao techniques.

  Zhao Di felt that under the gentle inquiry of this fairy-like person, it was really too difficult to tell a lie, so he honestly confessed that he was from Nanhuashan Jianjia, his nickname was Wugen, and he named himself Zhao Di. As for the last question about what kind of magic skill, Zhao Di had never even heard of it, so he naturally denied it.

  It seems that everyone has passed Xianzis assessment. Soon after, the middle-aged woman announced that everyone had officially become outer disciples of Tai Xu Men.

  Then, many grey-robed Qi Refining stage cultivators took these new disciples to arrange their accommodations and issue them items.

  Zhao Di didnt have much hope for the items that every new outer sect disciple could get. But when he got it in his hands, he was really surprised.

  Tai Xu Men is indeed the number one immortal sect in Jin Yan Country. Even an outer disciple like Zhao Di received a storage bag with the Tai Xu Men emblem, containing a set of standard gray robes, a Cold Moon Knife, a small black token engraved with "Tai Xu Men", and a rare feather-shaped artifact.

  That Cold Moon Sword and Black Command Token are nothing but low-grade artifacts. But that feather-shaped artifact is a specialized flying artifact.

  The so-called flight artifact is a special artifact used for flying, with no attack power and negligible defense power. Its only purpose is to fly in the air.

  Generally speaking, flying artifacts are very difficult to refine and are rarely sold in the market. Even if they are sold, they are still very expensive. This feather-like flying artifact, although it only has a low-grade spiritual power, would be more expensive than an ordinary mid-grade artifact if it were to appear in the Flowing Clouds Market.

  For cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, unless they have a specialized flying artifact, they do not have enough spiritual power to control other artifacts to fly.

  Since having the Qian Kun small tripod, the spiritual stone has been inexhaustible. Zhao Di had also thought of buying a flying device to fulfill his years-long dream of flight. Unfortunately, either the price was too high and he didnt dare to make a move, or there simply werent any such devices for sale.

  Now on the first day of entering the sect, I got a flying magic weapon that I had been dreaming of, it was indeed a big surprise.

  As for that grey robe, it is a special attire for Tai Xuan Mens Qi Refining stage disciples, while the Foundation Building stage cultivators wear white robes.

  This thin long gown looks ordinary, but it is actually made of the skin of a first-class demon beast, the "Fire Light Beast". Not only is it extremely delicate and soft, impervious to water and fire, with some defensive capabilities, but it also has a very clever property. No matter how dirty or wrinkled this garment gets, as long as you burn it with fire, it will immediately become clean and new again. For cultivators, it is indeed very convenient and practical.

  Leading Zhao Di and the other three outer disciples was a man with a square face who appeared to be less than thirty years old, seemingly introverted and not fond of speaking. All Zhao Di and the others knew was that his surname was Huang, and they addressed him as Brother Huang.

  Zhao Di and the other three had just entered the door, so they naturally found everything inside to be extremely novel and couldnt help but ask questions left and right. However, Huang Shixiongs responses were very few. Usually, after Zhao Di and the others asked seven or eight questions, he would lazily respond with a single sentence like "Yes" or "Its not like that", just a few words. After hitting a wall several times, the four of them could only honestly follow behind Huang Shixiong, without asking any more questions.

  Fortunately, the journey was not long, and after about half an hours walk, they arrived at a relatively open mountain valley. The valley is less than ten miles in circumference, but there are hundreds of stone houses with different styles scattered disorderly in the valley, which is completely different from the grand style of Yangxin Hall and Qishitang. It seems that people living here will not have a high status within Taixu Gate.

  "Indeed, Senior Huang spoke up: "This is the temporary residence specifically allocated for newly admitted outer sect disciples. You can find an empty stone house yourselves. Theres a jade slip here that contains a map of our sects terrain and some rules. Take a good look, most of your questions will be answered." After finishing his words, this square-faced young man tossed each person a cyan-colored square jade stone, then mounted his feather-shaped flying device and flew away.

  "Huang Shixiong, wait..." A 12th-level Qi Refining disciple beside Zhao Di wanted to chase after and ask something, but the monk with a square face didnt even turn his head, waving his hand to stop him. In an instant, he flew far away.

  "Haha, this Brother Huang is indeed quite special." The disciple didnt seem angry either, and chuckled as he said: "I am Xue Yunxue, from the Xue family of Tongzhous Yuyang Lake. I dont know your honorable surname?"

  "In the lower realm of Zhao. Having been a loose cultivator for many years, its better not to mention ones origin."

  "In Xia Ma Gao, it is also famous for its scattered temples."

  "Undercoat."

  "Brother Tú, could it be that youre from the Tú family, one of the four major immortal families of the Taixu Sect?" The thin young man named Mǎ Gāo immediately spoke up upon hearing his surname was Tú.

  "Hehe, although I also have the surname Tu, my origins are not from the famous Black Water Lake Tu family, but rather a small unknown family." Tu Gai replied with a smile, clearly this was not the first time someone had asked him this question.

  Zhao Di was very interested in this rumor about the four great immortal families of Tai Xu Men, and planned to find an opportunity to ask Ma Gao about it.

  The four of them exchanged a few pleasantries and then each went their separate ways to find a stone hut.

  Zhao Di found a secluded stone house near the bamboo forest as his residence. He discovered that although the stone house was crude, the furniture inside was mostly made of simple stone blocks, but it also had a small-scale sealing array, apparently the monks everywhere attached great importance to protecting their privacy. After Zhao Di slightly arranged the stone house, he began to study the green square jade given by Huang Shixiong.

  Yu Jian is something that Zhao Di has also seen before. It was refined by Xiu Xian Zhe from beautiful jade containing spiritual energy and is used to record text, images and other information. To use it, one only needs to immerse their divine consciousness into it.

  Zhao Di stuck the cyan square jade to his forehead, and his consciousness slowly seeped into the jade slip. In a short while, texts the size of fists and exquisite pictures appeared in his mind one after another.

  "Its actually a map of the entire Tai Xu Gate, and several important locations are marked out with detailed descriptions. This is really a great thing!" Zhao Di exclaimed, the information in this jade slip was extremely rich, not only did it have topographic maps of the many mountains and lakes within Tai Xu Gate, but also the names, purposes, and which elder each mountain peak belonged to were all detailed. The several forbidden areas designated by Tai Xu Gate were also marked out with ranges on the jade slip.

  It seems that Huang Shixiong is a very introverted person, although he doesnt talk much, but his heart is still very warm. Making such a jade slip would take him at least ten days or more.

  Zhao Di thanked the yellow-robed senior brother in his heart, and couldnt help but take out the colorful feather-shaped magic tool and place it on his palm to carefully examine it. The brilliant colors, faint spiritual light, seemed to have nothing particularly special about it. There were only a few words engraved at the base of the feathers, "Feather Flight" and "Tai Xu Men", in characters as small as grains of rice.

  "It seems this is called the Flying Feather Treasure, Ill give it a try." Having lived in two worlds for over 40 years, Zhao Di still had a bit of a childs heart, and suddenly getting his hands on such a good thing, he couldnt help but have the idea to try it out.

  Zhao Di walked out of the stone house, passed through the bamboo forest, and arrived at a spacious slope. The wind on this mountain wasnt strong, making it a good place to practice using the Flying Feather artifact.

  Zhao Di threw the flying feather in front of him, his hands pinched together in a spell seal, and slowly poured spiritual energy into it. The flying feather grew bigger and bigger, and after a while, it transformed into a huge colorful feather that was about one zhang long and three chi wide. Zhao Di carefully stepped onto it, stood firm, and then used his divine sense to slowly control the flying feather to rise and fall. After repeating this process more than ten times, he began to try controlling the flying feather to fly slowly in the low air at a height of about one zhang.

  This feeling of flying with the wind is still pretty good, as long as you control your body balance well when accelerating and decelerating, its relatively stable.

  After practicing for a long time, Zhao Di finally dared to tread on the flying feather artifact and flew in the air at a height of 100 meters. Although the speed of this flying feather was not particularly fast, it was only slightly faster than running at full strength, but it was indeed freely flying in the air with the artifact under control.

  Zhao Di suddenly felt a thrill, and stepped on the flying feather to fly around in the Kuangtu Mountains. He flew over one peak after another, and saw many Taixu Men cultivators flying with the same magical instrument, shuttling back and forth between the peaks. There were those wearing gray robes who were in the Refining Qi stage, as well as seniors in the Building Foundation stage dressed in white clothes.

  Suddenly, a grey-robed cultivator in the Refining Qi stage flew towards him. Zhao Di only took a casual glance before he was stunned.

  The other party obviously recognized him instantly and let out a cry of surprise: "Wu Gen Ge?"
