After repeated tempering,
finally, within the torrential rain, the originally silver-white Floating Snow Sword transformed into a treasured sword resembling a clear pool of water.
Ling Xiao gave it a name called “Rainfall Sword”.
After the transformation of the sword, its attributes changed, and its effects underwent some changes as well.
“Rainfall Sword, a Precious Treasure Artifact-level weapon, rain attribute, can double the power of the rain-attribute True Essence, when used, it can increase corrosion damage by twenty percent, which continues indefinitely unless treated, possesses the special technique ‘Decaying Sword Rain’, which can inflict widespread damage on enemies and create a strong corrosive effect; the stronger the Sword Master’s strength, the more powerful the corrosive effect, only limited to those within the Transcendent Realm.”
The process of refining the Rainfall Sword was not an easy task, Ling Xiao originally planned to complete it within a day, but it ended up taking two days to finish.
Nonetheless, he succeeded in the end, which added to his anticipation.
He had been planning to learn the “Purple Lightning World-shocking” secret scroll from Yuan Venerate, but now it had to be set aside temporarily.
Because it was the time of the Moon Blossom Festival, the battle for spots in the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony was about to unfold today.
Apart from ten seed players, there were forty spots to be decided among the many disciples.
These ten seed players were basically disciples of the Inner Sect Elders, and of course, their Cultivation Levels were not weak, all above the Seventh Level of the Transcendent Realm.
Among them, there were even two Core Disciples, including Shen Tian Lin.
Of course, there was also “Li Zonghao”, who had just been squeezed out of the Core Disciples.
He was one of the seed players.
Although he was no longer among the top ten Core Disciples, he was still the strongest among those below them.
Leaving his cave dwelling, Ling Xiao checked the sky, and it was early morning, indicating his timing was quite accurate.
He quickly walked towards the Inner Gate Square.
After all, the disciples competing for the forty spots included most of the Inner Sect Disciples, as well as all the Outer Disciples, everyone wanted to try their luck.
After all, it’s not like they would die.
Therefore, an ordinary venue would certainly not suffice; it needed to be in the spacious Inner Gate Square.
Ling Xiao had not yet arrived, but there were already many people gathered on the square.
Along the way, there were many moon-shaped lanterns hanging, as well as couplets and banners.
Signifying the arrival of the Moon Blossom Festival.
The Moon Blossom Pagoda stood there, still mysterious and daunting.
What exactly was inside the Treasure Pagoda that one could not see the top of?
This had always been a puzzle in Ling Xiao’s heart, and this time was an excellent opportunity, which he naturally would not miss.
Before long, Ling Xiao also arrived at the square, joining up with Zhao Zhi, Dai Yuling, and Shangguan Lei.
At this moment, he noticed that the faint blue moonlight on the Moon Blossom Pagoda had become more apparent, as if it was draped in a layer of mysterious veil.
The Moon Blossom Festival happened once a year.
So did the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony.
However, each martial artist only had three precious opportunities.
Therefore, for the martial artists who came this time, the opportunity was extremely rare.
One less chance meant one less opportunity to perform the ‘Dragon Gate Jump’.
“Senior Brother Ling, among us in the Outer Sect, you are the strongest.
Strive to bring glory to our Outer Sect, and we will cheer for you with flags.”
Although a large number of Outer Sect Disciples also registered for the competition, these people were expected to be eliminated in the first round, and it was unlikely that they would secure a spot.
The only one who had a chance was naturally the unfathomable Ling Xiao.
“Just be at ease.
With Senior Brother Ling’s strength, it’s almost certain!”
Zhao Zhi said with full confidence.
Hearing this, Zhao Ci by the side couldn’t help but frown.
She had always looked down on Ling Xiao, feeling that he was too arrogant and his methods too ruthless.
Especially since Ling Xiao had consecutively killed fellow disciples, she, with her compassionate heart, was thoroughly angered.
Since then, she had not spoken to Ling Xiao again.
However, she saw herself as superior, and Ling Xiao couldn’t be bothered with her.
Now, with the help of Ling Xiao, Dai Yuling has already advanced to the Transcendent Realm Third Layer.
Zhao Zhi is also at the peak of the Transcendent Realm Second Layer.
Shangguan Lei’s cultivation level was not low to begin with, and now he has reached the peak of the Transcendent Realm Fourth Layer.
As for Zhao Ci, her cultivation is still at the late stage of the Transcendent Realm Level 1, slow as a snail.
In fact, Zhao Zhi had privately advised his sister.

But helplessly, his sister has been spoiled since childhood, always feeling that everything should be done her way.
Zhao Zhi now can’t be bothered to manage her anymore.
As the group spoke, more and more people gathered in the square.
Even Core Disciples who weren’t participating in the competition for the spots were arriving one after another.
Their reason for coming was simple—the ones who won the spots might become their formidable rivals in the future, so it was better to observe them here.
Apart from some who were unable to make it back in time, or were on secret missions, or assigned to guard the mountain gates, nearly all the Moon Hua Sect disciples had gathered at the Inner Gate Square.
After all, this was one of the most grand ceremonies of the Moon Hua Sect.
“Let’s go, let’s go greet Sister Lan,” Ling Xiao said to Dai Yuling.
“She’s not my senior sister, she’s my master,” Dai Yuling replied with a wry smile, though her feet did not slow down.
After exchanging greetings with Ling Xiao, Shangguan Lei went to stand behind Meng Yuan, as he was ostensibly a follower of Meng Yuan.
As for Zhao Zhi, he stood where he was.
He intended to be a friend of Ling Xiao’s, not a lackey who would follow behind him, after all, a prince maintains his dignity.
Besides, he wasn’t familiar with Lan Yu’er, and it wouldn’t be good if he went over and she disliked him.
“Tsk, tsk, truly envy that Ling Xiao, being so close with Lan Yu’er who ranks second among the top ten Core Disciples.”
“No helping it, the guy is the center of attention right now.”
“Exactly, I heard that even Her Highness Moon Lady said she wanted to take him as a disciple.”
“Cut it out, don’t talk nonsense, how could that be possible.”
“Right, what Her Highness Moon Lady said was just a joke, do you really think Ling Xiao could take first place in the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony with his abilities?”
“That’s true.”
“Poor Ling Xiao, he’s been completely played.”
One wonders what the people who said these things would feel if they knew about Ling Xiao’s intimate cohabitation with Moon Lady in the Thousand Ghosts Forest?
Ling Xiao, for his part, didn’t care at all about those discussions.
From the Ling Family to Hidden Dragon Camp and to now, he had been the topic of discussions for many, but those people were just passersby to him.
And yet, he had now become a highly sought-after disciple of Moon Hua Sect.
Even possessing the qualifications to challenge Core Disciples.
That was genuine progress!
“Hehe, Sister Lan, what a coincidence, I’m also participating in the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony this time.
If I run into this little brother there, do you think I should take good care of him?”
Among the top ten Core Disciples, there was another enchanting woman named Tantai Lingzi, currently ranked sixth, even higher than Meng Yuan.
If she meant to make things difficult for Ling Xiao, then Ling Xiao was really going to have trouble.
“If you dare to hurt him, I’ll kill you!” Lan Yu’er said coldly.
“Sister, there’s no need to be so angry, she can’t hurt me!”
