10: Chapter 10

"No!"

The Spirit Guardian replied without hesitation.

Ye Hao nodded slightly, not particularly disappointed, as he had already prepared himself mentally.

"Then I must trouble Senior to select a Human Rank Divine Ability for me."

"I don't have that either!"

The Spirit Guardian still replied quickly.

"Huh?"

Ye Hao looked up, appearing somewhat bewildered.

Little friend, do you have many question marks?

Mu Wanqing asked, "Senior Spirit Guardian, then what Divine Abilities are inside here?"

"In our Dao Seeking Sect's Divine Ability Pavilion, only Heaven Rank and God-tier ones are allowed; Earth Rank and Human Rank Divine Abilities can only be found outside."

*Siss~*

Ye Hao gasped upon hearing this, nearly stumbling and losing his footing!

Li Pingan had just stepped onto the path of cultivation and knew little of these things. Looking at his Junior Brother's incredulous expression, he whispered, "Junior Brother, what's wrong? Could it be that these Divine Abilities are very powerful?"

Ye Hao swallowed hard and said with a trembling voice, "It's more than just 'powerful'; those are Heaven Rank Divine Abilities! I've only heard rumors of such things in my Family's ancient records."

As for God-tier, he hadn't even heard of them; they weren't even recorded in the ancient books.

"If the Hegemon-level Forces outside were to learn of this, I'm afraid they would send people to our Dao Seeking Sect to kill and plunder without hesitation!"

Li Pingan's face was full of solemnity. Treasures that even Hegemon-level Forces would covet?

Just what kind of Sect had he joined!

Thinking of this, his heart was filled with surprise, shock, joy, and immense gratitude. He unconsciously rubbed his moist eyes.

His parents were killed by villains, and he was powerless. At the Immortal Ascension Assembly, he was met with cold shoulders and all sorts of humiliation, and he was still powerless. He was like an ant that anyone could crush at will.

But now, this might be the only chance he would ever have in this lifetime.

This time, he was determined to Cultivate hard and never experience that feeling of powerlessness again.

Mu Wanqing composed her wide almond eyes, looked up, and warned with a touch of pride, "You two, news of the Divine Abilities must not be leaked, lest it bring unnecessary trouble to Revered Master."

"Don't worry, Senior Sister! I know the gravity of this matter!"

Li Pingan also nodded heavily.

The three of them stepped onto the circular platform in front of them one by one.

The voice of the Spirit Guardian struck directly into their hearts: "You possess the Supreme Yin Spiritual Body. You are suited to Cultivate the God-tier Medium Grade Divine Ability, Heavenly Sorrow Yin Condensation Art!"

With those words, a Jade Slip glowing with golden light floated before them.

"You possess the Heaven-Loathing Divine Body. You are suited to Cultivate the God-tier Low Grade Divine Ability, Nirvana Art!"

"You possess the Chaos Immortal Bone Body. You are suited to Cultivate the God-tier Low Grade Divine Ability, Primordial Samsara Curse!"

After receiving the Divine Abilities, all three of them showed expressions of ecstatic joy, their lips curling up uncontrollably.

"Senior Sister, I'll head down to Cultivate first." Ye Hao cupped his hands in farewell, and Li Pingan followed closely behind... Three days passed in a flash!

Within the Dao Seeking Sect, Mu Wanqing opened her bright, clear almond eyes and exhaled softly.

"I've reached the fourth layer of Qi Refining! I wonder what Realm my two Junior Brothers are at now." She patted her dress, stood up, and intended to go for a walk and rest for a while.

In three days, she had broken through from the first layer of Qi Refining to the fourth layer of Qi Refining.

This speed could not be described as anything but astonishing.

Not to mention the Prodigies of Hegemon-level Forces, even in the Central Region where hidden dragons and crouching tigers reside, it would leave others far behind.

However, it was only natural for Mu Wanqing to have such cultivation speed.

First: She was a one-in-a-million cultivation Genius, possessing a Top Grade Water Spiritual Root and the Supreme Yin Spiritual Body.

Second: The technique she cultivated was a God-tier Cultivation Technique. The speed of absorbing Spiritual Qi was extremely fast, and the Spiritual Qi was exceptionally pure. Compared to other Cultivators, she could skip the issue of processing Impurities. She could just absorb it without worrying about damaging her Meridians.

Third: This Dao Seeking Sect possessed an immortal grade spirit vein, where the Spiritual Qi was as thick as water. The cultivation speed within the Sect far exceeded the outside world by a hundredfold.

If she hadn't spent time comprehending the Divine Ability, Mu Wanqing would probably be at the fifth layer of Qi Refining by now.

Just as she left her residence and arrived at the Sect square, intending to show off to her Revered Master, she saw a figure running rapidly toward her.

Mu Wanqing frowned, her fingers forming a seal as the surrounding Spiritual Qi surged.

"Senior Sister, it's me!" the figure shouted.

Mu Wanqing saw that dark-skinned figure and only then stopped her movements. "Junior Brother, why are you..."

Boom!

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Li Pingan carrying a giant boulder on his back, crashing into a nearby stone pillar as if he couldn't stop.

The giant boulder on his back rolled to the side, with debris falling off.

Li Pingan stood up, patted the dust off his clothes, and scratched his head awkwardly.

"Junior Brother, what are you doing?"

Li Pingan lowered his head and said with some guilt, "Senior Sister, I am tempering my Physical Body according to the methods in the Divine Profound Mountain Shaking Art, but sometimes I just can't control my strength."

"Every time I run with a rock on my back, I feel like I can't see things clearly!"

Mu Wanqing scanned the surroundings, glanced at the stone pillar of the main hall, and said softly, "But this isn't the way. Why don't you go ask Revered Master?"

Li Pingan said shamefully, "Would this disturb Revered Master?"

Mu Wanqing smiled playfully. "Junior Brother, you think of Revered Master as being too strict."

Li Pingan pondered for a moment, then gave an "En"... inside the main hall!

[Name: Chen Xuan]

[Race: Human Race]

[Cultivation: Second Layer of Golden Core Stage]

[Sect reputation points: 400 points]

[Items: block card * 15, Spirit Transformation Experience Card * 3, instant kill card * 3, Samsara Heavenly Dao Eye]

[Sect Rank: Level 1]

Chen Xuan looked at the panel and nodded with satisfaction.

400 reputation points. Besides the original 40 points, over these three days, his Eldest Disciple broke through to the fourth layer of Qi Refining and mastered a God-Tier Divine Ability, rewarding a total of 140 reputation points.

His Third Disciple broke through to the seventh layer of Qi Refining, which, along with mastering a God-Tier Divine Ability, rewarded 220 reputation points.

He had funds to squander again.

As expected, having more Disciples makes it easier to harvest rewards.

"What's going on with the Second Disciple? Why hasn't he made a sound for three days?" Chen Xuan was somewhat puzzled.

Both the Eldest and the Third had provided reputation points feedback, but the Second Disciple had no movement from the System for a long time.

"Forget it, I'll go check in a bit to see if this kid is slacking off. For now, I'll buy some cultivation base first."

Chen Xuan opened the mall; the Golden Core Third Layer cost 100 reputation points, and the Golden Core Fourth Layer cost 200. This thing couldn't be bought by skipping levels; it had to be done step by step!

Chen Xuan directly purchased both, leaving the remaining 100 reputation points to continue saving.

Within the main hall, the Spiritual Qi flowed rapidly, forming ripples around Chen Xuan as the pressure of the Golden Core Fourth Layer spread out like a tide.

Mu Wanqing, who had just arrived outside the main hall, was slightly stunned. "Is Revered Master cultivating? So strong!"

"Just what Realm is Revered Master at?"

Not until the Spiritual Qi fluctuations ceased did Mu Wanqing continue forward with Li Pingan.

"Revered Master, your Disciple Mu Wanqing pays her respects!"

"Disciple Li Pingan pays his respects!"

The two of them bowed respectfully outside the main hall.

"Come in," Chen Xuan's indifferent voice drifted out.

Just in time, let me see what's going on with the Second Disciple!
