14: Chapter 14 Advancement to Inner Sect, Gaining Supernatural Powers

Seeing the prompt appear, Bai Yunzhou felt a surge of joy in his heart.

The Foundation Establishment Pill was an essential Medicinal Pill for Qi Refining Cultivators to break through to Foundation Establishment.

However, due to differences in quality, the probability of breaking through after consuming it also varied.

Normally speaking, even with a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, there was only a forty percent chance of successfully breaking through to Foundation Establishment after consumption.

But a perfect Foundation Establishment Pill was an exception.

Although it could not be said to be one hundred percent, it had a full seventy percent probability.

It could be said that as long as one's Foundation was not too poor, after consuming a perfect-quality Foundation Establishment Pill, basically everyone could successfully break through.

"As long as I can break through to Foundation Establishment, by then, even if I leave the Sect, I will no longer need to worry about those past Demonic Cultivators coming to trouble me."

Thinking of this, Bai Yunzhou immediately put away the Foundation Establishment Pill, preparing to leave the plaza and go exchange his identity token.

Then he would move his Immortal Cave to the Inner Sect and concentrate on Cultivating.

However, right at this moment, a crisp voice leisurely drifted over from the side.

"Bai Yunzhou, I am Inner Sect Elder Zhou Mu. Would you be willing to take me as your Revered Master?"

Bai Yunzhou looked up.

Only then did he notice that somehow, an extraordinary-looking female Cultivator had appeared before him.

He noticed that on the attire across her swelling chest, there was indeed the emblem of an Inner Sect Elder.

Clearly, she was the one speaking to him just now.

An Inner Sect Elder wants to take me as a Disciple... Bai Yunzhou felt a surge of joy in his heart.

He subconsciously checked the other party's panel.

[Name]: Zhou Mu

[Realm]: Core Formation Perfection

[Destiny Fate]: Seven-Kill Sword God (Gold)

[Destiny Attribute]: Decisive in Killing (Gold), Madly Protective of Shortcomings (Gold), Life and Death on the Line (Gold)

[Favorability]: Seven-tenths Approval

[Recent Opportunity]: Enter the Guiyun Secret Realm at Lingbao Mountain in a few days, gain enlightenment, and break through to Nascent Soul.

She will go to the Guiyun Secret Realm in a few days to break through to Nascent Soul!

Bai Yunzhou was startled.

Didn't this mean that if he took her as his Revered Master, it would be equivalent to having an extra Nascent Soul powerhouse as a backing not long from now?

You must know that within the entire Qingxuan Sect.

Nascent Soul powerhouses were also few and far between, with only those few Sect Old Ancestors being at the Nascent Soul Realm.

Previously, Du Yufan dared to openly target him within the Sect. Aside from the status gap between Inner and Outer Sect Disciples, more importantly, it was because he had no background.

Now, although he had already promoted to the Inner Sect, the other party wouldn't dare to openly find trouble with him anymore.

But occasionally tripping him up and creating minor troubles could still be done.

But if he could enter the Sect under the present Inner Sect Elder before him, wouldn't Du Yufan have to take a detour whenever he saw him?

More importantly, this person would become a Sword God-level figure in the future.

Although Bai Yunzhou was not clear what kind of powerhouse a Sword God-level was.

It was definitely above Nascent Soul.

Besides that, on the panel of the Elder before him, it was clearly written: protective of shortcomings!

If he became a Disciple under her, he would definitely no longer be bullied by others.

Thinking of this, he immediately hesitated no longer.

"This Disciple is willing to take the Elder as my Revered Master."

Seeing this, Zhou Mu nodded with satisfaction.

"Previously, I watched your battle with Wei Changfeng. Your sword moves were quite impressive, but the consumption was not small."

"Coincidentally, Revered Master has a Divine Ability in hand. Although it is incomplete, it is sufficient to make up for your shortcomings in this aspect."

As she spoke, she took out a Jade Slip from her storage ring and handed it forward.

"Now I bestow it upon you, consider it your Revered Master-welcoming gift."

A Divine Ability!

Bai Yunzhou was stunned for a moment, then reacted, his heart filled with wild joy.

He knew very well that a Divine Ability was an even more powerful existence compared to ordinary Cultivation Techniques.

Even in ancient times, that was definitely rare.

More importantly!

After Cultivating a Divine Ability, one could summon miraculous phenomena during combat with others, easily crushing opponents.

Unless the opponent was like him and had also Cultivated a Divine Ability.

"Although it is only an incomplete Divine Ability, it is still exceedingly precious."

However, just as he took the Jade Slip handed over by the other party, a prompt abruptly appeared before his eyes.

[You obtained the Divine Ability 'Dao as a Seed (Incomplete)'! Successfully plundered Wei Changfeng's Opportunity, triggering a two-thousand-seven-hundred-fold critical hit to obtain the complete Divine Ability 'Dao as a Seed'!]

Seeing the prompt appear.

Bai Yunzhou only then remembered that this Divine Ability should have originally belonged to Wei Changfeng, but now it actually belonged to him.

"Many thanks, Revered Master!"

Expressing his thanks, he hurriedly put it away.

Zhou Mu nodded.

"Let's go, accompany me to the Inner Sect."

"Wait!"

Bai Yunzhou hurriedly spoke up.

"Revered Master, I still have some things in my Outer Sect Immortal Cave that I haven't retrieved. Could you allow this Disciple to go fetch them?"

Zhou Mu glanced at him.

"Go quickly and return swiftly!"

"Many thanks, Revered Master."

Bai Yunzhou summoned his top-grade Flying Sword and flew toward the direction of the Outer Sect Immortal Cave.

With his current Cultivation, his Flying Sword speed was extremely fast.

However, along the way, quite a few Outer Sect Disciples took the initiative to step forward and greet him upon seeing him.

Causing him to fly for a little half-day before returning to his Immortal Cave.

But as soon as he entered the Immortal Cave, he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Someone seemed to have visited his Immortal Cave!

This made him instantly turn vigilant.

"Whoosh!"

Right at this moment, a Flying Sword from behind suddenly stabbed toward him.

Bai Yunzhou was both shocked and angry.

Due to the previous battle with Wei Changfeng, a large amount of spiritual power was consumed.

And later he flew on his sword, resulting in not much Spiritual Qi left in his body, drastically reducing his strength.

Fortunately, after Cultivating Savage Bull Strength, his Physical Body was tough enough and his reactions were fast enough, allowing him to barely dodge this sword strike.

"Boom!"

This sword strike missed.

But it directly split apart the nearly two-meter-tall black gold stone behind the spot where he had just been standing.

At this moment, a voice came from not far away.

"You actually dodged?"

Bai Yunzhou looked toward the source of the voice.

He saw a young man not far away looking at him with a face full of astonishment.

From the attire the other party was wearing, it was not hard to see that the opponent was an Inner Sect Disciple.

Bai Yunzhou could be sure that he did not know this person.

"Who are you? I have no grievances or enmities with you, why are you ambushing me here?"

His expression was grave.

Since the other party was an Inner Sect Disciple, their Cultivation was most likely Foundation Establishment.

Given his current situation, it was absolutely impossible for him to be the opponent of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"Also, by making a move against me here, aren't you afraid of being punished by the Sect?"

However, after hearing his words, the young man showed no fear on his face.

"Punish me?"

"You are merely a mere Outer Sect Disciple. With my identity, even if I cut you down, at most I will only be punished with confinement for ten years."

"But do you know?"

"As long as I kill you, I can obtain thirty thousand Spirit Stones!"

Thirty thousand Spirit Stones... Was he actually worth this much?

Bai Yunzhou's expression was grave.

At the same time, he also guessed who wanted to kill him.

"Did Du Yufan send you?"

The young man looked him up and down with quite a bit of surprise, but gave no answer.

However, Bai Yunzhou had already confirmed from the other party's expression that he had guessed right.

He felt angry in his heart.

Previously, the other party spent three bottles of spirit gathering pills to bribe Wei Bai and the other two, wanting to cripple him.

Now he actually directly spent thirty thousand Spirit Stones, wanting his life!

"Du Yufan is truly pushing people too far! Once I get past this hurdle, I will definitely make him pay the price!"

Bai Yunzhou was furious in his heart.

Right at this moment, the opposite youth was already prepared to make a move again.

"Wait!"

Bai Yunzhou hurriedly called to stop.

"Today I entered the top three in the Outer Sect Test, and now I am an Inner Sect Disciple."

"Furthermore, Elder Zhou Mu has already taken me as a Disciple!"

"If you kill me, you will definitely suffer heavy punishment from the Sect!"

Upon hearing his words, the Inner Sect youth unconsciously paused, and a grave expression also appeared on his face.

He continuously looked Bai Yunzhou up and down.

"You took Elder Zhou Mu as your Revered Master?"

Seeing that the other party no longer made a move, Bai Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

And hurriedly nodded, saying,

"That's right!"

"As long as you leave right now, I can pretend nothing happened. How about it?"

The Inner Sect youth not far away fell silent for a moment, then suddenly his gaze hardened, as if he had made up some kind of determination.

"Since you are an Inner Sect Elder's Disciple, then I should kill you even more!"

Finished speaking, he smiled hideously, actually releasing an aura even more terrifying than before, directly driving his Flying Sword to attack Bai Yunzhou.

...

Du Family.

Inside an Immortal Cave.

Du Yufan was in a very good mood right now.

Ever since he broke through to Mid Foundation Establishment under his father's guidance, not only had his treatment in the Sect doubled.

Even within the Family, his status had also been elevated.

As long as he maintained this state, the position of the next head of the Du Family would belong to none other than him.

Of course!

There was also a minor flaw in all of this.

That was, the relationship between him and Liu Qingmo had never made any progress.

He had heard about it.

This Liu Qingmo had already broken through to Foundation Establishment now.

Furthermore, relying solely on her Early Stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, she could battle quite a few Late Stage Foundation Establishment Disciples within the gate.

Such a terrifying talent directly alarmed the Sect Old Ancestor.

The Old Ancestor valued her exceptionally, and even had the idea of cultivating her as the next Sect Master.

"If she can become this young Revered Master's Dao Companion, not only can this young Revered Master firmly sit in the position of the next head of the Du Family, but I can even lead the Du Family to become the number one noble Family of the Qingxuan Sect!"

Recalling this, he suddenly thought of that figure he loathed.

"Bai Yunzhou... Thirty thousand Spirit Stones, your life really is quite expensive."

Previously, upon learning that Bai Yunzhou's cultivation had recovered, in order to completely resolve the other party as a potential threat, he had prepared to act personally to solve the person.

However, he searched inside the gate for half a day and couldn't find the other party.

Thus, he could only summon a trustworthy crony, and at the cost of thirty thousand Spirit Stones, ordered him to stake out the other party's Immortal Cave.

Waiting only for the person to return to slaughter them.

"Today seems to be the day of the Outer Sect Test, and I don't know how Jiang Ran is handling things."

"You must not let that Bai Yunzhou promote to the Inner Sect, otherwise there might be quite a bit of trouble in the future."

Thinking of this, he prepared to take out the voice transmission Jade Slip to inquire.

Right at this moment, he received a voice transmission from another crony.

"Senior Brother Du, there is news about that Outer Sect Disciple you asked me to keep an eye on."

"Today he participated in the Outer Sect Test, had a life-and-death battle with Wei Changfeng, cut him down with a single sword, won second place, and successfully promoted to the Inner Sect."

"And he even took Inner Sect Elder Zhou Mu as his Revered Master!"

Hearing the news transmitted from the Jade Slip, Du Yufan was stunned for a moment.

Then his expression became unsightly.

He actually really succeeded in promoting, and even took Elder Zhou Mu as his Revered Master...

However, right at this moment!

He suddenly thought of Jiang Ran, whom he had sent to assassinate Bai Yunzhou, and his face instantly turned pale.
