325: Chapter 325 Taking on Disciples

A short while later.

Four young women and one young man hurried to the stone hall.

They first curiously glanced at Chen Hu, then bowed to Bai Jiang, some calling him "Grandfather," others "Great Grandfather."

None of these five people were over twenty years old.

Because of Cultivating, the five of them looked much younger than their actual age, appearing to be only eighteen or nineteen.

"Rise, all of you!" Bai Jiang raised his hand, then pointed at Chen Hu and said respectfully, "This is Senior Chen. Hurry and pay your respects!"

"Bai Yu has seen Senior Chen!"

"Greetings, Senior Chen, I am Bai Yan!"

"Greetings, Senior Chen, I am Bai Yu, the 'Yu' as in rain!"

"Senior Chen, I am Bai Xian'er!"

"Bai Ning has seen Senior Chen!"

"No need for such formalities. Since this is our first meeting, here is a greeting gift!" With a wave of his hand, Chen Hu tossed out five Elemental Spirit Stones.

Looking at the Elemental Spirit Stones in their hands, the five of them were shocked.

There was a reason why the Bai Family settled in this valley.

Because this valley contained a very small amount of Elemental Origin Qi.

Otherwise, the Bai Family would not have given birth to over twenty Cultivators.

At the same time, their Bai Family collected Elemental Spirit Stones from all over the world, but had gained very little.

Especially in the last few decades, the total number of Elemental Spirit Stones their Bai Family had obtained was only seven.

Therefore, every Elemental Spirit Stone was extremely important to the Bai Family.

Chen Hu had tossed out five Elemental Spirit Stones right away, which truly shocked them, and they secretly speculated about this Senior Chen's background.

It is worth mentioning that these five before him were already the most outstanding members of the Bai Family's younger generation.

Furthermore, their cultivation had all reached at least the seventh level of Qi Refining, and the one with the highest cultivation, Bai Yu, had even reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.

However, the five of them did not know whether to accept them, so they subconsciously looked at Bai Jiang.

Meeting their gaze, Bai Jiang said, "Since Senior Chen bestowed them upon you, you should accept them, but you must properly thank Senior Chen!"

Thus, the five of them thanked Chen Hu once more.

Chen Hu waved his hand and said to Bai Jiang, "Introduce their Spiritual Root Aptitude!"

Bai Jiang: "Hurry and introduce your Spiritual Root situation to Senior Chen!"

Bai Yu said, "Senior Chen, this Junior has High Grade four Spiritual Roots."

Bai Yu followed up, "Senior Chen, I have Top Grade three Spiritual Roots."

Bai Yan said, "Reporting to Senior Chen, I have Medium Grade five Spiritual Roots!"

Bai Ning said, "I also have High Grade four Spiritual Roots!"

Bai Xian'er said, "Senior Chen, I have High Grade five Spiritual Roots."

At this moment, Bai Jiang spoke, his voice filled with a sigh, "It is a pity that they were born in the wrong place. Otherwise, relying on their Aptitude, they would all have the qualifications to form a Nascent Soul, but in this world, it is already good enough to become Foundation Establishment."

Having said that, he turned his gaze to Chen Hu: "Senior, how is it? These children are still worthy of your attention, right?"

Chen Hu did not answer directly.

Instead, he appeared to be deep in thought.

After a while, he said, "I can accept them as Named Disciples. If they perform well, they can then become official Disciples!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jiang was overjoyed.

"Quick, you five little ones, hurry and pay your respects to your Revered Master!" Bai Jiang urged excitedly.

The five were not stupid. Seeing Bai Jiang so excited, how could they not understand that this Senior Chen before them was an expert?

They all knelt and kowtowed, saying, "Disciple greets Revered Master!"

"Alright, rise, all of you!"

Chen Hu raised his hand slightly, and the five were lifted up by an invisible force.

Next, Chen Hu raised his hand and pointed out five beams of golden light, which went straight into the center of the five people's foreheads.

After the golden light merged with their Divine Soul, two Cultivation Techniques appeared in their minds: the "Tai-Xuan Qi Refining Technique" and the "Tai-Xuan Foundation Establishment Technique."

The five only roughly checked the Cultivation Techniques in their minds, and were pleasantly surprised to find that the Cultivation Techniques passed down by Chen Hu were countless times more powerful and profound than the "Qi Induction Technique" they were cultivating.

Therefore, they knelt again to thank him.

Next, Chen Hu took out five Storage Pouches and tossed them to them.

Previously, Chen Hu had assassinated quite a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators and Golden Core Cultivators from the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Storage Pouches were standard equipment for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, while Golden Core Cultivators used Storage Rings.

Moreover, both the Storage Pouches and Storage Rings contained some cultivation resources.

The Storage Pouches he gave the five contained 100 Low-Grade Spirit Stones each, and Medicinal Pills for the third-grade Qi Refining stage.

Actually, Elemental Spirit Stones were also Spirit Stones.

But the Elemental Origin Qi contained within them was too little.

They couldn't even compare to the lowest grade Low-Grade Spirit Stone in the Great Cultivation World.

The Elemental Origin Qi contained within them was at most equivalent to one percent of a Low-Grade Spirit Stone.

"In one month, I will come back to test your cultivation. I'm off!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Hu vanished into thin air.

"Respectfully send off Revered Master!"

The five immediately bowed to see him off.

After Chen Hu had been gone for a few seconds, the five of them straightened their bodies one after another.

"Hurry and look, what good things did Revered Master give us!"

Bai Xian'er said happily.

As a cultivation Family, they naturally understood how to use Storage Pouches.

So they all smeared their blood onto the Storage Pouches.

The next moment, a Low-Grade Spirit Stone appeared in Bai Xian'er's hand.

"This... this is a Low-Grade Spirit Stone!" Bai Jiang looked at the Low-Grade Spirit Stone in Bai Xian'er's hand, unable to help but widen his eyes: "Hurry, let this old man see!"

"Here, Great Grandfather!"

Bai Xian'er handed the Low-Grade Spirit Stone to him without hesitation.

Taking the Low-Grade Spirit Stone, Bai Jiang sensed it and couldn't help but say, "What abundant Elemental Spirit Stone energy!"

The Elemental Origin Qi contained within this small Low-Grade Spirit Stone could at least be compared to 100 Elemental Spirit Stones.

"Senior Chen is truly generous!" Bai Jiang said.

"Great Grandfather, Revered Master gave me one hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones!" Bai Xian'er said.

"100!"

Bai Jiang's eyes bulged, and he looked at the other four: "Are you the same?"

"Grandfather, there are also 100 in my Storage Pouch, and there are three bottles of Medicinal Pills!" As he spoke, a bottle of Medicinal Pills appeared in his hand.

"Hurry, let this old man see!"

Bai Jiang took the bottle of Medicinal Pills, opened it, and poured out a round, smooth Medicinal Pill. His expression became excited again as he said, "This is a Qi Condensation Pill. A bottle like this is enough for you, Bai Yu, to enter the twelfth level of Qi Refining!"

"Really?" Bai Yu said excitedly.

"Great Grandfather, what exactly is Revered Master's background?" Bai Yu suddenly asked.

Bai Jiang's expression grew stern.

"You don't have the qualifications to know right now. In the future, when you are supposed to know, you will naturally know!"

"Oh!"

The five nodded.

But in his heart, Bai Jiang thought, "This old man also wants to know, but it's a pity I can't say that, otherwise how would I bluff these five little ones!"

"Alright, all of you go back and Cultivate. You cannot let your Revered Master down!"

"Yes!"

The five bowed and exited the stone hall.

On the other side.

Chen Hu had already returned to the imperial palace.

And went directly to Saintess Luoyan's sleeping quarters.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

Saintess Luoyan immediately prepared to rise to welcome him, but Chen Hu waved his hand and said, "No need to get up. I am sleeping here with you tonight."

As he spoke, Chen Hu took off his clothes, came to the bed, and pulled Saintess Luoyan into his arms.

"Your Majesty, today my Revered Master snuck into the imperial palace. She said she wanted to meet with you!" Saintess Luoyan said cautiously.

"Alright, I understand. I will see her tomorrow!"

Chen Hu did not feel surprised, after all, the intelligence from the night before had already revealed that Sect Leader Tian Yue would sneak into the imperial palace.
