31: Chapter 31 Recommendation Quota, Nine Gates Technique

Another matter?

Bai Yunzhou looked on in puzzlement, wondering if the Old Ancestor wanted to reconcile the relationship between him and Liu Qingmo?

However, facts proved that he was overthinking it.

"With your Foundation, if you can Breakthrough to Nascent Soul, you will definitely be an outstanding figure among the Nascent Soul."

Patriarch Xing Zhan continued speaking.

"Therefore, this old man hopes that you can enter under this old man's Sect, participate in the Inner Sect Grand Competition three months later, and as long as you can enter the top ten, this old man can send you to Taixuan Holy Land to Cultivate."

Is this Old Ancestor going to take me as a Disciple?

Bai Yunzhou was stunned for a moment.

If he couldn't see the other party's panel, he would naturally be ten thousand times willing to enter under this Old Ancestor's Sect.

After all, if he could enter under the other party's Sect, his status within the Sect would also rise with the tide, and no one would dare provoke him.

At the same time, he could also receive guidance from the other party, which would allow him to take many fewer detours on the path of Cultivation.

But now, since he knew this person's Heart-Nature, if he were to still enter under the other party's Sect, wouldn't that be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?

More importantly, he already had Elder Zhou Mu as his Revered Master.

The other party was quite good to him and was extremely protective of her shortcomings.

With such a good Revered Master, how could he possibly switch allegiance to someone else's Sect?

Furthermore, if Elder Zhou Mu listened to his suggestion, she would likely Breakthrough to Nascent Soul before long.

And given the strength his Revered Master had displayed previously, as well as the fate destiny on her panel, as long as she could Breakthrough, she would definitely be an outstanding figure among the Nascent Soul.

Therefore, Bai Yunzhou saw no need to switch and join Patriarch Xing Zhan's Sect.

Although he thought this way in his heart, considering the other party's identity, he did not dare to refuse directly, but instead asked.

"Taixuan Holy Land?"

"What kind of place is that?"

Sikong Jian at the side's eyes were filled with envy as he explained.

"Taixuan Holy Land is the upper Sect of our Qingxuan Sect. There are countless experts within the Sect, and just the Outer Sect Disciples include Core Formation Cultivators."

"With your talent, if you can Cultivate there, at most in a hundred years, you can Breakthrough to Nascent Soul!"

Sikong Jian continued speaking.

"However, if our Sect's Disciples want to go and Cultivate there, the first requirement is to win a top ten spot in the Inner Sect Grand Competition."

"Secondly, one must possess a recommendation letter from a Nascent Soul expert."

"Only when both conditions are met can one obtain the qualification to go and Cultivate."

"However, this recommendation qualification is limited!"

"Early Stage Nascent Soul only has one chance in a lifetime, while Middle Stage Nascent Soul has two."

"Do you understand the Old Ancestor's meaning now?"

After listening to the introduction, Bai Yunzhou understood.

That Taixuan Holy Land was simply a more powerful Sect; if he went there, he could obtain better development.

However, if he wanted to go, besides needing to obtain a top-ten spot in the Inner Sect Grand Competition, he also needed to get a recommendation letter from Patriarch Xing Zhan.

The condition was to take the other party as his Revered Master.

"Old Ancestor, this matter is of great importance, can I consider it comprehensively?"

Bai Yunzhou looked at Patriarch Xing Zhan and asked carefully.

Hearing these words from him, Sikong Jian was stunned.

Clearly, he hadn't expected Bai Yunzhou to still hesitate.

After all, this kind of Opportunity to enter under a Nascent Soul expert's Sect was something countless people begged for without success.

Patriarch Xing Zhan's face still wore a smile, as if he hadn't taken it to heart.

"In that case, you may withdraw for now, and come seek this old man after you have considered it well."

"Yes!"

Bai Yunzhou did not hesitate at all, bid farewell, and left.

Watching his departing back, Sikong Jian couldn't help feeling a sense of pity for him in his heart.

Being able to enter under the Old Ancestor's Sect was definitely a great Opportunity.

He didn't expect Bai Yunzhou to miss it just like that.

"That's right, Old Ancestor, apart from Bai Yunzhou, Song Xinghe also made the list the past two days, do you think he needs to be summoned?"

"Song Xinghe?"

Patriarch Xing Zhan showed a thoughtful expression.

"Is he that Disciple who obtained first place in the outer Sect during the previous Outer Sect Test?"

"That's right, it's him!"

Sikong Jian nodded.

"Since he also made the list, then you bring him here as well."

"If he is suitable, then this old man will take him under my Sect and give him the last quota."

"Yes!"

...

After leaving the Sect's back mountain, Bai Yunzhou rode his sword towards the direction of the Scripture Pavilion.

He prepared to go into the Scripture Pavilion to find a Cultivation Technique suitable for the Foundation Establishment Stage to Cultivate, and also to query related information regarding yaohua water.

After all, this thing was handed to him by Patriarch Xing Zhan, and he certainly wouldn't dare to consume it casually.

At the same time, along the way, when he recalled Patriarch Xing Zhan's attitude towards him just now, he always felt it was somewhat strange.

Especially when the other party was sizing him up, it didn't seem like an elder sizing up a Junior, but rather like looking at a treasure.

Suddenly!

Bai Yunzhou thought of a fate destiny on the other party's panel.

Defying Fate to Die in Place... Could this Patriarch Xing Zhan want to take me under his Sect and carry out Possession on me?

A chill instantly washed over him.

If that really was the case, how could his strength possibly resist?

Bai Yunzhou even boldly guessed that the reason the other party wanted to take him under his Sect before being willing to recommend him to Cultivate in Taixuan Holy Land—

Was probably paving the way for himself after Possession.

Of course, it was also possible that his guess was wrong.

But regardless, purely based on that fate destiny on Patriarch Xing Zhan's panel, it was impossible for him to enter under the other party's Sect.

"However, as for the Inner Sect Grand Competition three months later, I must participate and enter the top ten!"

As long as he could enter the top ten, he could obtain the qualification to enter the Spirit Spring Secret Realm.

Only then could he seize the Opportunity for Liu Qingmo to Cultivate in the Heavenly Pool within the Secret Realm.

Besides that, if nothing unexpected happened, his Revered Master would also become a Nascent Soul Cultivator not long from now.

According to the rules of Taixuan Holy Land, Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Qingxuan Sect could obtain one recommendation quota.

By then, his Revered Master would also possess a recommendation quota.

According to his understanding of his Revered Master, this quota would definitely fall upon him.

Therefore, even if he didn't enter under Patriarch Xing Zhan's Sect, he still had the possibility of obtaining the qualification to go and Cultivate in Taixuan Holy Land.

Lost in thought, he had already arrived and landed at the square in front of the Scripture Pavilion.

Habitually, after landing, he did not rush to go in, but still first sized up the Disciples entering and exiting.

Originally, he didn't hold out much hope.

But suddenly, among the entering and exiting Disciples, the panel of one person caught his attention.

[Name]: Lin Yue

[Realm]: Mid Foundation Establishment

[Fate Destiny]: Stunted at Core Formation (Gold)

[Destiny Attribute]: Emotional Threads Binding Dao (Cyan), Mirror Flower Legacy (Blue)

[Favorability]: None

[Recent Opportunity]: Half a day later, in a stall at the Outer Sect Market, successfully pick up a bargain on an ancient Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique 'Nine Gates Method (Incomplete)'. The Nine Gates Method can enhance the speed of absorbing and refining Spiritual Qi.

It actually is an ancient Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique!

A trace of joy flashed across Bai Yunzhou's eyes.

Silently noting down this Opportunity.

Then he entered the Scripture Pavilion and queried relevant intelligence regarding yaohua water. It was exactly as Sikong Jian had described earlier.

Besides that, there were also many inspection methods for yaohua water detailed on it.

After noting down the contents, he directly left the Scripture Pavilion and headed towards the Outer Sect Market.

According to the Opportunity he noted down earlier, he easily found that ancient Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique.

And successfully picked it up as a bargain at the price of one hundred Spirit Stones.

Just after getting the item into his hands, a prompt emerged before his eyes.

[You have obtained the ancient Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique 'Nine Gates Method (Incomplete)'; successfully plundered Lin Yue's Opportunity, triggered a six-fold critical strike, and obtained the complete version of the ancient Foundation Establishment Cultivation Technique 'Nine Gates Method'.]
