Yun Xiao Feng, in Li Hui's room.

  The room was simply furnished, but quite elegant. A stone table stood by the window. At this time, Li Hui was not in the room, and only a small, inconspicuous stone lay in the corner under the table.

  In the Yuanchang Immortal Mansion, in the Linshui Pavilion, Li Hui sat quietly in the center of the Linshui Pavilion. Above Li Hui's head, a small whirlpool formed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was constantly entering his body.

  In the lower abdomen, a thick liquid-like spiritual energy vortex is rapidly rotating, and strands of heavenly and earthly spiritual energy are merging into the vortex from all over the body's meridians. At this time, the vortex has expanded to almost fill the entire lower abdomen, only one step away from completely transforming the spiritual energy vortex into liquid. The spiritual energy turning into liquid marks the completion of the ninth layer of the Refining Qi period.

  "Ah!"

  Li Hui let out a long breath and woke up from his meditation, with a flash of sharp light in his eyes.

  "Finally cultivated to the 9th layer of Qi Refining, I'm about to reach the Great Perfection!" Feeling the surging spiritual power within his body, Li Hui's face revealed a satisfied expression.

  Li Hui suddenly disappeared without a trace in Yuan Huo's immortal mansion.

  In Yun Xiao Feng's room, Li Hui's figure suddenly appeared. With a wave of his hand, the stone slab that was originally Yuan Huan Xian Fu transformed into a white light and entered Li Hui's body.

  At this time, Li Hui was wearing a green shirt with five connected mountain peaks embroidered on the cuffs, which is the symbol of the inner disciples of Bi Xiang Gate. The outer disciples' sleeves do not have the symbol of the five connected mountains.

  At this time, the blue shirt on Li Hui's body was not the one issued by Bi Xiao Men, but was transformed from Qian Huan Bao Yi. Those Jindan cultivators usually stayed in the cave to cultivate and rarely showed up, while the foundation-building cultivators couldn't see through Li Hui's true state with Qian Huan Bao Yi. It just happened that he could use Qian Huan Bao Yi to conceal his own cultivation.

  It has been more than a month since entering the Bi Xiang Gate. After the grand ceremony of entering the gate, Li Hui and other inner door disciples were taken to their respective mountain peaks.

  Li Hui and ten other disciples were placed on Yun Xiao Peak as nominal disciples of Han Shidao. The other seven disciples were each placed on the other four peaks.

  As for the remaining 490 outer disciples, they were relocated to the foot of the mountain.

  The five main peaks of the Bi Xiao Gate are connected by a rainbow bridge on the mountain waist, and the location of the rainbow bridge is a dividing line. The inner door disciples live above the rainbow bridge, while the outer door disciples live at the foot of the mountain. Without being summoned, they can only climb up to the position of the rainbow bridge.

  Near the top of each of the five mountain peaks, there is a large temple, and behind the mountains are the caves of those Golden Elixir practitioners. According to legend, the caves of several Yuan Ying Lao Zu are also hidden deep in the mountains.

  The five mountain peaks are extremely majestic, and the dwellings of these inner disciples only occupy a very small part of the land, while those foundation-building monks also excavate caves to live in the mountains below the Grand Hall.

  That day the grand ceremony of entering the sect ended, and each inner disciple was assigned a separate small courtyard as their residence. In each person's room, there was a piece of paper with some basic information that new disciples needed to know.

  After a brief rest, Li Hui immediately went through all the necessary procedures for new disciples introduced in the Jade Directory. First, he went to Yun Xiao Peak to register as a new disciple, recording his name and receiving an identity jade card. Then, he ran to Dan Yang Peak to pick up the third-generation disciple's uniform and a storage bag. Next, he went to Zi Yan Peak to receive the inner door disciple's half-year cultivation dan medicine. After that, he rushed to Qing Lü Peak to receive a high-quality spiritual instrument, and finally went to Feng Hui Peak to receive the spirit stone for half a year.

  After running for a whole day, they finally finished all of this. After running back and forth between the five mountain peaks for a day, even Li Hui's body felt somewhat unbearable, let alone the other disciples who were complaining about why they didn't concentrate everything in one place.

  But thinking carefully, this also has its own reason. The thousands of disciples in the foundation and refining stages of the Bi Xiao Sect would be chaotic without a perfect management method.

  The Yun Xiao Peak, where the sect leader is located, is mainly responsible for registering the number of disciples, issuing and assigning sect tasks, rewards and punishments, etc. The Dan Yang Peak is responsible for providing living materials for these disciples, while the Zi Yan Peak mainly provides dan medicine for disciples to practice. The Dan Hall of Bi Xiang Gate is also located on Zi Yan Peak. The Qing Lü Peak is where the Bi Xiang Gate's equipment temple is located, and it provides ordinary weapons for low-level cultivators to spiritual instruments for foundation-building period cultivators. The Feng Hui Peak is in charge of finance, managing all the spirit stone mines under Bi Xiang Gate, and distributing spirit stones to disciples of different levels every half a year according to different standards.

  According to the distribution standard of Nei Men disciples, Li Hui can receive 500 pieces of low-grade spirit stones and 10 bottles of Pei Yuan Dan for the Refining Qi period every six months. As a registered disciple of the sect leader, Li Hui received an additional share, so he took a total of 1,000 pieces of low-grade spirit stones and 20 bottles of Pei Yuan Dan.

  And through the information in Yu Jian, Li Hui also understood the true meaning of the so-called Golden Elixir Cultivator's registered disciple.

  The named disciples of Jindan cultivators are actually equivalent to giving these Lianqi period disciples a quota: the quota that can become the personally taught disciples of these Jindan cultivators after building the foundation. Normally, these Lianqi period disciples cannot see those Jindan cultivators, and those Jindan cultivators will not point out their cultivation.

  Jindan cultivator's registered disciple, this is more of a symbolic identity. Within the sect, he was still a third-generation disciple and had to address those foundation-building cultivators as "Master Uncle"!

  But it's not all bad, for example, with this identity, the sect will provide twice as many spirit stones and pills to aid in their cultivation. Of course, there are also some other benefits.

  These elixirs are enough for Li Hui to cultivate for half a year. If they're not enough, he can also use spirit stones to buy these elixirs at Purple Smoke Peak at a price that's half lower than the outside market.

  Since practicing the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique, Li Hui has slowly discovered that the more he practices the Five Elements Reincarnation Technique, the less dependent he is on elixirs. As his internal cultivation grows, the spiritual energy vortex in his dantian rotates faster and faster, and even if he doesn't deliberately operate his technique to absorb spiritual energy, the spiritual energy vortex in his body will slowly absorb some of the heavenly and earthly spiritual energy.

  Dan medicine is nothing but an aid to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth or break through bottlenecks, improve physique. If one's own absorption of spiritual power is fast enough, then there is no need for the assistance of dan medicine.

  What really excited Li Hui was not these spiritual instruments, spiritual stones, and elixirs. It was that he discovered the place assigned to him on Yun Xiao Peak had a concentration of heavenly spiritual energy several times denser than the area near the Lingering Array in Ling Xiao City!

  The reason is simple. The five peaks of Bi Xiao Gate are all located on the five spiritual veins, especially Yun Xiao Peak has the highest quality spiritual vein.

  With this plus the effect of the Spirit Gathering Array in Yuanhao Xianfu, Li Hui's cultivation effect in Yuanhao Xianfu was not inferior to that of those Golden Elixir cultivators' caves.

  Within a month of entering the gate, Li Hui had cultivated to the ninth layer of the Grand Completion Realm at the end of the Qi Refining stage. After reaching the Grand Completion Realm, one can disperse their cultivation and start anew.

  Directly impact the foundation? Li Hui had thought about it too. However, the reason why the "Five Elements Cycle Technique" can transform the abandoned spiritual root into a talent comparable to the heavenly spiritual root is that it has been tempered and rebuilt multiple times, with a solid foundation. If he were to force a breakthrough now, it might be possible to barely establish the foundation, but the roots would not be stable, and the road ahead would become increasingly difficult to walk. This kind of premature action was something Li Hui would never do.

  "Dong! Dong! Dong......"

  A gentle and melodious bell sound came over.

  "It's time to go to the Zhengdao Hall!" Li Hui, who had just sat down at the table, immediately stood up as soon as he heard the bell ring.

  Today's first update is here, the overall pace will speed up, Li Hui's strength will surge rapidly, and of course, I hope that the collection and red tickets will also synchronize with Li Hui's strength.
