"The bodily martial skill that Ancestor cultivates is indeed powerful. It seems like it should be a king level bodily martial skill or above, or else he wouldn't have such speed." Zhao Qili thought to himself as he looked at Ji Haotian, who was in the distance.

"Junior Brother, I knew that you like me, right? Or else you wouldn't have defeated Lin Jie for me." Zhao Lin's eyes lit up and came to Ji Haotian's side.

Ji Haotian looked at the beautiful woman who was walking towards him, slightly shook his head, and said, "Senior Sister, I already have someone I like, and the reason I defeated Lin Jie was not because of you, but because they came to cause trouble for me!"

Hearing this, Zhao Lin's eyes flashed with a sense of loss, but quickly became determined and said, "Don't worry Junior Brother, I will not give up, and after I become an outer disciple in Saint House, I will also get close to the water tower first!" Once we get to Saint House, perhaps, little junior brother will already be mine! "

Upon hearing that, the corner of Ji Haotian's mouth twitched violently. He sighed and no longer bothered with Zhao Lin, instead, he looked at Zhao Qili and asked, "Are we riding on a Griffin towards the examination grounds of the Saint House?"

"The Saint House outer sect examination grounds are tens of thousands of miles away from Immortal Sword Sect. If we did not use the Grade 5 Immortal Beast Griffin to travel, I'm afraid it would have taken us two months. If that's the case, I'm afraid by the time we reach there, the Saint House examination would have already ended!" Zhao Qili said.

Hearing that, Ji Haotian frowned, after pondering for a moment, he said, "Give me the map to Saint House!"

They knew who Zhao Qirui was and what kind of status he had. That was the Immortal Sword Sect's Sect Leader, but now, with Ji Haotian's commanding tone in the distance, did they not know that doing so would directly offend the Sect Leader?

Hearing this, Zhao Qirui did not feel that anything was amiss. Instead, he respectfully handed over a scroll to Ji Haotian.

Ji Haotian took the scroll and opened it. A map entered his eyes.

After keeping the map, Ji Haotian frowned. When he opened the map, he discovered that on the way to the Saint House's testing grounds, there was a valley that stretched across thousands of miles.

Ji Haotian, who was a celestial sovereign in his previous life, naturally knew that a group of demonic beasts lived in the Windy Valley. Their names were the Kun Peng Hawks, top demonic beasts that could grow into Grade 8 immortal beasts.

Moreover, this kind of demonic beast would only operate in the summer and autumn seasons, while in the spring and the east season, it would fall into a state of deep sleep and hibernation.

If it was a normal situation, Ji Haotian would naturally not have the slightest bit of worry, but right now, he was in the middle of autumn. Which is to say, if he were to ride on the Griffin heading towards the Saint House right now, he might be met with the attacks of the Roc Hawk.

Ji Haotian said, "When will the previous Saint House trials be held?"

However, this year is different from the previous years. Because of the opening of the Blade Imperial Palace's Secret Realm, it should be autumn soon. Zhao Qili couldn't help but ask.

"Of course there's a problem. And if we take the Griffin to the Saint House to take the examination now, we will never return. That's because when we were on our way to Saint House, there was a Heavenly Wind Valley, and since ancient times, a group of extremely powerful demon beasts had grown up there, the Kun Peng Hawk! The Kun Peng was a group of demonic beasts that were able to grow to the eighth level of the Immortal Stage. During the year, they only moved about in the fall and summer. The other two seasons were spent sleeping in caves. If we pass through the Windy Valley in the past, there won't be any danger. But at this season, once we pass by, we will definitely encounter the Roc Hawk's attacks. " Ji Haotian explained everything leisurely.

A hint of shock flashed through Zhao Qili's eyes when he heard this. He never thought that going to the Saint House on the original route would involve so many dangers. He couldn't help but admire the ancestor in his heart.

Sect Leader, do not be fooled by this brat, it has already been several hundred years since we left Immortal Sword Sect, that year we did not follow this route, and did not encounter any dangers. Furthermore, if we were to change our route, we might have to travel a long distance, at that time, we might miss the Saint House test! Lin Jie said.

However, he did not want to reveal Ji Haotian's identity either. After being silent for a moment, he said, "There is no need for you to speak nonsense if you are not deceived, I just want to know if Little friend Haotian has a way to solve this problem."

"Of course there are. As long as every disciple has a big bag of Flame Powder, it would be fine!" Ji Haotian smiled and said.

"Hahaha, what do you mean by Flame Powder? Isn't it just chili concoction? "Brat, don't tell me you're going to use this thing to deal with that Immortal-ranked demonic beast you're talking about." The corner of Lin Jie's mouth hooked into a sneer as he spoke.

He knew very well that the Flame Powder was a powder that had been grinded by the Fire Pepper after drying in the sun. Because the Fire Pepper was able to absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth on its own, after cultivators consumed it, their entire body would look like it was on fire and become named after them.

When Zhao Qirui heard this, he was silent for a moment before he said, "I'll go to the sect's Treasure Vault right now and get it."

"Hey, tell me, what exactly is Ji Haotian's identity? Why would the Sect Leader listen to him? "

"What kind of identity does he have? I think he's most likely the illegitimate son of one of the Highest Elders of the sect. Otherwise, why would the Sect Leader listen to him?"

The two young men by Lin Jie's side spoke.

"You two don't want to slander Junior Brother. The reason Junior Brother was able to gain the approval of the Sect Leader is because Junior Brother knows more than you!" Zhao Lin said with a cold harrumph.

Hearing that, Lin Jie's eyes became even colder, he never thought that the arrogant and straightforward Zhao Lin would actually help Ji Haotian, in his opinion, only by killing Ji Haotian would he have the chance to obtain his heart.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Zhao Qirui rushed over. With a flick of his wrist and a flash of light, sixteen bags of Flame Powder appeared in front of everyone.

"After each disciple has collected a bag from me, we will set off!" Zhao Qirui said as he looked at the crowd.

When Lin Jie heard this, his brows slightly knitted. From his point of view, taking a bag of Flame Powder was a complete occupation of his spatial ring. One had to know that the spatial ring he bought was only two cubes. Once he put a bag of Flame Powder in, he would probably have to take out all his clothes and life saving magical equipment. He was naturally unwilling to do this.

The other cultivators all had the same thoughts as Lin Jie, and only Ji Haotian, Zhao Lin and the others came and took the bag of Flame Powder.

Zhao Qili noticed that the other academies didn't have any Flame Powder on them, so he didn't get angry. Instead, he indifferently said, "Let's go!"

In his opinion, if Lin Jie and the rest were before he saw the ancestor, he might have kept on reminding them. But after seeing the ancestor, he felt that as long as the ancestor was fine, the other people's death did not have much to do with the Immortal Sword Sect's power!

Furthermore, before leaving for the Saint House, he had already reminded those disciples to bring along the Flame Powder. Since those disciples weren't brought along, he couldn't possibly force those disciples to bring along a bag of Flame Powder, right?

When everyone reached the wooden house on the Griffin, the Griffin spread out its wings, creating a strong whirlwind and rustling the fallen leaves on the ground.

The wooden houses on the griffins were made of black wood. Not only could they withstand the strong wind, the weight of the 16 wooden houses was less than 200 pounds.

The Griffon flew up into the sky, and like a cloud covering the sky, it flew off into the distance.

After Ji Haotian arrived at a rather spacious room, he took out a Immortal Spirit Stone, laid out a circular Spirit Gathering Formation, and started to cultivate.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

Ji Haotian, who was currently cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes and slowly stood up.

After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, all of the cultivators inside the room stopped cultivating. At this moment, they all felt a shocking cold energy coming from the distance.

In mid air 100 meters from the Griffin, there was a huge battleship floating in mid air.

Around this battleship were already thousands of gigantic Kun Peng hawks. Each of them was over ten meters long, and they secretly surrounded the entire battleship.

These Kun Peng eagles continuously let out half a meter long ice spikes from their mouths and attacked the battleship.

Although this battleship was filled with spirit inscriptions and had activated a defensive formation, if it were to constantly encounter attacks from the surrounding Kun Peng hawks, the defensive formation on the battleship might not last for more than six hours.

Although he did not know the names of the surrounding demon beasts, he knew that even if the defensive formation on the warship was opened, it could only last for at most six hours. But right now, it had already been four hours, and the defensive formation on the warship could be broken at any time.

Once the formation was broken, the disciple that he was responsible for sending to Saint House would be in danger of being swallowed by a demon beast.

He knew who the disciples on the battleship were, and among them was the daughter of the Tianyun Prefecture Lord, Li Shuangyue. The other cultivators were mostly genius disciples of the fifth-rate sects.

If he were to escape now, even though he could escape from the Kun Peng's encirclement, once he does, all the disciples from the great powers would definitely come looking for him.

Ka-cha! *

Accompanied by a light sound, the sharp claws of one of the Kun Peng hawks were like swords as they directly tore apart the defensive arrays surrounding the battleship. Many disciples that stood outside the armor were surrounded by countless Kun Peng hawks in the blink of an eye.

Amongst the crowd of disciples, there was only a single figure that kept on killing the Kun Peng Hawk that was surrounding her. When the surrounding disciples saw this scene, they all went to the girl's side, seeking protection.

For these genius disciples groomed by the fifth-rate sects, even though they had killed demon beasts before, they had never encountered a large group of immortal beasts with the strength of a Grade 3 immortal beast.

Even though most of them were already at the Great Circle of the Immortal Realm and were able to kill these Kun Peng hawks, they knew that once their spiritual energy was depleted, they would be surrounded and killed by the Kun Peng hawks.

As the battle progressed, Li Shuangyue's spirit energy was being consumed more and more, and her pretty face gradually turned pale. Although she had a trump card, the moment she used it and failed to kill all of the Kun Peng hawks, she would be the one to die. Because of this, she did not immediately use her life saving trump card.

Ruthlessness!

A gigantic, twenty-meter-long bird with green scales all over its body and a bone spike on its forehead came from afar. It opened its huge claws and flew directly towards Li Shuangyue.

On the Griffin that was twelve meters away from the battleship, the disciples of Immortal Sword Sect felt their hairs stand on end. A hint of fear flashed across their eyes as they looked at the giant bird in the distance. What kind of demon beasts are they? Why haven't I seen it before? " A Immortal Sword Sect disciple said.

"Sect Leader, which demonic beast has already reached Tier 3 Immortal Beast? If we go up, we will lose our lives in vain. Let's take a detour!" Lin Jie's brows slightly knitted as he said.

Although Lin Jie felt that the peerlessly beautiful woman on the battleship was extremely beautiful, he didn't want to lose his life because of a girl.

"It's only dealing with a few Kun Peng hawks, it's not like it's some formidable demon beast!" Hearing that, Ji Haotian shook his head slightly, his body jumping up from the Griffin towards the battleship in the distance.

In his opinion, Ji Haotian's strength was merely at the level of an immortal Greater Celestial. With such strength, killing one or two Kun Peng hawks would naturally not be a problem for him, but if he encountered a group of Kun Peng hawks or the Roc King, it would be no different from striking a stone with an egg!

Sensing that Ji Haotian had rushed out, Zhao Qirui leaped up and hurriedly followed him.

She pursed her lips and clenched a jade pendant in her fist. The jade pendant in her hand was a life-saving treasure left behind for her by her father; the moment it was broken, she would be able to unleash the full power of an Immortal Emperor Stage expert.

"You bunch of trash! How dare you act so arrogantly here? Fall down!" Ji Haotian looked at the Kun Peng hawk in the distance and said calmly.

When the battling cultivators on the battleship heard this, a hint of astonishment flashed through their eyes. They also didn't expect that the kid with a cultivation level only at the Immortal Realm would actually call those Kun Peng Ying old fogeys. Could it be that he didn't want to live anymore?

Li Shuangyue, who was standing on the warship, looked at Ji Haotian, who was in the distance. His beautiful eyes glazed over as he silently cursed in his heart, "How come, when I'm about to die, I encountered an arrogant brat, and not …"

Although the Roc Hawk King didn't know what Ji Haotian was talking about, a hint of anger flashed through the enormous eagle's eyes. The enormous eagle claw suddenly turned around and attacked toward Ji Haotian's body.

Ji Haotian felt the strong wind whistling towards him from afar, his eyes did not show the slightest sign of panic, but instead said, "My friends, this attack is too powerful, please cover your eyes, otherwise, you will meet the same fate as me!"

When the cultivators on the battleships heard this, a hint of disdain flashed across their eyes. How powerful could a Great Celestial Realm cultivator actually make them block his eyes? They were truly arrogant.
