“Eat slower.”
Second Senior Brother Qingxiao helplessly looked at Zhao Linglong and then looked at Xu Taiping and said：
“Representing the Xianlv Division to go to Xianhu Cave Heaven to snatch the tripod is a good experience. Taiping, you must take good advantage of it.”
The tone was full of anticipation.
“Senior Sister, Senior Brother, actually I still don’t quite understand. What exactly is Xianhu Cave Heaven, what does it mean to snatch the tripod, and why would the Xianlv Division invite me to represent them to enter that Xianhu Cave Heaven？”
Although he had figured out the matter of obtaining the quota to enter Xianhu Cave Heaven.
But Xu Taiping was still completely confused about Xianhu Cave Heaven itself.
“It’s my fault, it’s my fault. Taiping, you have only been a formal disciple for one year and surely haven’t heard of Xianhu Cave Heaven yet.”
Zhao Linglong slapped her head and then excitedly began to explain to Xu Taiping.
“The Xianhu Cave Heaven is a very famous secret realm in the Nine Mansions.”
“This secret realm of the cave heaven is rumored to be a place where an ancient immortal sect raised spirit beasts and planted spirit medicines. There are many spirit grasses and medicines with ages exceeding a thousand years or even ten Thousands of years, and there are also many spirit beasts that have been extinct in the Nine Mansions. Moreover, you can also find the caves of some ancient cultivators inside.”
“However, different from other secret realms, this secret realm has an owner. Without his permission, no one can enter this Xianhu Cave Heaven.”
“And the owner of this Xianhu Cave Heaven is the first mansion master of the Nine Mansions, the Jade Qing Layman.”
“This Jade Qing Layman has extremely high cultivation. It is rumored that even our grand-uncle master is not his opponent.”
“If it weren’t for him back then, the Xianmeng of the Nine Mansions simply could not have been established.”
“I digressed. Let’s talk about the Xianhu Cave Heaven again.”
“Back then, when this Jade Qing Layman stepped down as the mansion master, he promised to open this Xianhu Secret Realm to the disciples of the Nine Mansions once every twelve years. However, the number of places is limited, and only the young heroes under the age of eighteen can enter.”
“And in this Xianhu Cave Heaven, there is a large snow-capped mountain called Jade Gourd Peak, which is several thousand feet high.”
“The Jade Qing Layman and the Nine Mansions jointly set the rule that as long as anyone can climb to the top of the mountain first, they can take a pot of spiritual spring water from the spiritual spring of Jade Gourd Peak. At the same time, the sect represented by the cultivator can also receive generous rewards from the Nine Mansions.”
“After all these seven or eight hundred years, the Ascending to Xianhu has become a great event of the Nine Prefectures, and many of the current big shots in the Nine Prefectures have emerged in it.
“So, whether it is for the young disciples or the various sects of the Nine Prefectures, this is a great opportunity to stand out and obtain opportunities.
After saying so much in one breath, Zhao Linglong felt that her mouth was a little dry, so she grabbed the teacup beside her and took a big gulp.
And after listening to Zhao Linglong’s account, Xu Taiping finally understood seven or eight out of ten.
“Senior Qingxiao, can the Nine Prefecture Immortal League itself also select disciples from the disciples of other sects to represent the Nine Prefectures in this Xianhu Competition？”
While pouring tea for Zhao Linglong, Xu Taiping asked Senior Qingxiao beside him.
“That’s right.” Qingxiao nodded. “The Nine Prefectures itself gathers disciples from all sects and factions. This is very normal and no one will raise any objections.”
Xu Taiping suddenly understood when he heard this.
“But why did he choose me？”
He immediately asked Qingxiao and Zhao Linglong the biggest doubt in his heart.
“I don’t really know about this either. Do you know, Senior Brother？”
Zhao Linglong looked at Second Senior Brother Qingxiao.
“It was Huangque who recommended Taiping to the current prefectural master of the Nine Prefecture Immortal League.”
Qingxiao smiled, took out a jade slip and put it on the table, and then gently tapped the jade slip with his fingertip.
Immediately, a familiar voice came from the jade slip——
“Qing Xiao, this time you have to thank me well. Under my strong recommendation, the lord of the mansion finally agreed to let your little junior brother Xu Taiping represent the Xianhu Law Department of the Nine Mansions to participate in the Xianhu Contest. Remember to invite me to drink when you come back！”
At this moment, the doubts in Xu Taiping’s heart were finally completely resolved.
“However, for this guy’s words, only half can be believed. According to the statement of another friend of mine in the Xianhu Law Department, before Huang Que recommended you, because of your performance in the Xianfu ruins of Yunmengze, you were already among the candidates considered by the lord of the Nine Mansions.”
Second senior brother Qing Xiao continued to say.
Xu Taiping was a little flattered.
“Senior brother, is the Xianhu Cave Heaven as dangerous as the Xianfu ruins in Yunmengze？”
He asked Qing Xiao again.
“This… I know！”
Before Qing Xiao could speak, Zhao Linglong with a bulging mouth swallowed the food in her mouth, and then introduced to Xu Taiping：
“Although there are also powerful monsters and fierce beasts in the Xianhu Cave Heaven, they generally have their own territories. As long as you don’t violate their territories, they won’t attack you.”
“Just this point is much safer than the Xianfu ruins in Yunmengze.”
“In addition, when entering the Xianhu Cave Heaven, the Nine Mansions will give each disciple three teleportation scrolls.”
“These scrolls can help you be teleported to a nearby safe location when you encounter danger.”
“But after being teleported three times, you will be invited out of the Immortal Gourd Secret Realm and lose the qualification to explore in the secret realm.”
“So although the cultivation bases of the disciples who enter the Immortal Mansion Ruins are not too high, over the past few hundred years, the number of cultivators who died inside can be counted on one’s fingers.”
Hearing this, Qingxiao on the side nodded, expressing his approval.
“The Immortal Gourd Cave is vast in area. It is said that even the first-generation mansion master only explored a small part of it. Therefore, almost every time there is an Immortal Gourd Contest, young cultivators will obtain great opportunities.”
Qingxiao continued to add.
“That Jade Green Layman, isn’t he the master of the Immortal Gourd Cave? Why did he only explore a small area?”
Xu Taiping felt a little strange.
“The meaning of this master only means that he has mastered the method of entering and exiting the Immortal Gourd Cave, not that he completely controls the Immortal Gourd Cave.”
Qingxiao explained.
“So, in a sense, the Jade Green Layman is only regarded as the gatekeeper of this Immortal Gourd Cave？”
Xu Taiping put it in a more popular way.
