After Duan Ling Tian settled down, he began to cultivate the King Grade Cultivation Method, the Taiyi Profound Method. It was imparted to him by Huaners grandaunt before the remnants of her soul vanished.
I wonder hows Huaner doing... Whenever Duan Ling Tian cultivated the Taiyi Profound Method he would inadvertently be reminded of Huaner. He could not help but worry about her.
Since Duan Ling Tian had closed his eyes to cultivate, he was unaware that ice figures had appeared on the ice bed as the branch from the Divine Tree of Life in his body began to swiftly absorb the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. These ice figures were elegant and graceful like deities as they danced at a fast space.
If Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, was here, he would have been shocked. When one cultivated on the Profound Celestial Ice bed, one would have to achieve a certain level of cultivation before the ice figure would appear. The more lifelike the ice figures were, the more terrifying ones cultivation speed was. Even when Sun Liang Peng cultivated on the ice bed, the ice figures that appeared were not as lifelike as Duan Ling Tians ice figures.
After about an hour had passed, Duan Ling Tian finally decided to stop cultivating. He opened his eyes and took out the box of Stellar Sand that he had obtained and asked the Chaos Divine Flame, Senior Chaos Divine Flame, how do I use the Stellar Sand?
Take out the Divine Sword, and Ill wrap my flames around it. Then, Ill guide the soul artifact in your sea of consciousness to integrate with the Divine Sword. At that time, pour the Stellar Sand on the flame, and Ill be able to speed up the integration process. The Chaos Divine Flame was quick to reply even though its voice still sounded weak.
Alright! Duan Ling Tian quickly acted according to the Chaos Divine Flames instructions. He took the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword and let it hover in the air. Then, with a wave of his hand, a gray flame appeared around the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword was, naturally, unaffected by the flames. After all, the gray flame was only slightly stronger than an ordinary prominent Celestial Fire. It was not even as strong as a Duke Grade Celestial Fire. It would be strange if such a weak flame managed to burn the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, and he would have questioned if the sword was truly a Devata Artifact.
At this moment, the Chaos Divine Flame said to Huanger, the soul artifact, Little Huanger, it might feel a little unbearable after this. However, as long as you endure it, the integration between you and the sword would be more than half completed!
Huanger said fearlessly in her cold voice, Ive already endured the pain of forcibly leaving my original artifact, how could I be afraid of such insignificant pain?
While Duan Ling Tian was speeding up the process of Huangers integration with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword using the Stellar Sand, Zheng Hong Yi, Sun Liang Pengs third direct disciple, brought the new disciples who had just registered to the valley where inner disciples and true disciples resided and cultivated.
As soon as Zheng Hong Yi appeared in the valley, he drew a group of inner disciples attention. These disciples were also curious about the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials standing behind Zheng Hong Yi.
Its Senior Zheng Hong Yi!
The group of people behind him are peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials!
They must be the outstanding peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials whom Vice Sect Leader Zhang brought back from Scaling Cloud Lake. These people are directly promoted to inner disciples of the sect!
Hmph! Although theyre directly promoted to inner disciples of the sect, if their innate talents are poor, theyll be kicked out eventually.
At this moment, one of the inner disciples flew into the air and appeared in front of Zheng Hong Yi. He called out, Senior Hong Yi! It seemed like he had a good relationship with Zheng Hong Yi. After he greeted Zheng Hong Yi, he said, The sect leader was here earlier.
Master? Zheng Hong Yi frowned slightly. Was he alone?
No, he was with a purple-clad young man. In fact, I heard he personally sent the young man to the vacant true disciples courtyard, the inner disciple said.
Alright, I understand. Zheng Hong Yi nodded slightly. At this moment, despite his calm appearance, a flame of fury rose in his heart. There was nothing he could. He could not go against his masters wish, after all. He knew if he displeased his master, with just a word, his master could easily cast him out of the Simplicity Celestial Sect!
Senior Hong Yi, that purple-clad young man robbed you of the position of a true disciple. If it werent for him, that position would have been yours. The inner disciple was confused when he saw Zheng Hong Yis calm appearance. He knew how much Zheng Hong Yi had desired to become a true disciple. Why was Zheng Hong Yi not angry?
Zheng Hong Yi looked at the inner disciple from the corners of his eyes and said, Wu Feng, youd better watch your mouth. The position of a true disciple isnt guaranteed to be mine even without his presence. Moreover, his innate talent and comprehension skills are incredibly high. Hes worthy of becoming a true disciple of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. By saying these words, do you mean to say the sect leader lacks insight? His eyes flashed coldly as he spoke.
Upon hearing these words, Wu Feng, the inner disciple, was so frightened that he paled immediately and no longer dared to speak.
Ill hand them over to you now. Youll be in charge of arranging their accommodations, Zheng Hong Yi said to Wu Feng before he left.
After Zheng Hong Yis figure vanished from sight, Wu Feng turned to look at the group of peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials and said, Follow me.
The group of peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials felt slightly dissatisfied as they trailed after Wu Feng. They were welcomed by the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect before being passed over to an ordinary inner disciple. On the other hand, Duan Ling Tian was personally welcomed by the sect leader. The differences in treatments were too big!
Wu Feng glanced at the group of peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials before he asked, Does everyone know that purple-clad young man?
With the peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials explanation, Wu Feng and the other inner disciples finally understood what kind of genius the newly appointed true disciple was. He was a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who comprehended two profundities from a law even though he was not even 100 years old. Moreover, he was ranked second in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
While Wu Feng arranged the accommodations for the newcomers, the other inner disciples looked at Duan Ling Tians floating island and discussed among themselves.
As it turns out, that purple-clad young man is a monstrous talent!
Hes not even 100 years old, and yet, hes already so formidable... Can you imagine what hed be like once he grows into his full potential?
No wonder the sect leader treats him so well. With his high innate talent and comprehension skills, even the Profound Nether Mansion would be too small for him once he grows into his full potential. Even the Southern Heaven Territory might be just a stepping stone for him to enter a greater sect!
Thats right! Hes more than qualified for the position of a true disciple in our Simplicity Celestial Sect.
The group of inner disciples who were dissatisfied with Duan Ling Tian becoming a true disciple earlier was finally convinced of his abilities.
At this moment, one inner disciple who had just returned to the valley shook his head when he heard the discussions in the surroundings. He said with a sigh, I thought either Zheng Hong Yi, Wang Hong, or me will be appointed as the tenth true disciple. I didnt expect that someone would appear out of nowhere and take that position.
As soon as the other inner disciples saw this person, a few of them greeted him enthusiastically.
Senior Zhuang Fan!
These inner disciples enthusiasm could be attributed to the fact that Zhuang Fan was one of the three most outstanding inner disciples. The other two outstanding inner disciples were Zheng Hong Yi, Sun Liang Pengs third disciple, and Wang Hong, the granddaughter of the Grand Elder of the Simplicity Celestial Sect. Among the three of them, Zheng Hong Yi and Wang Hong had extraordinary backgrounds. Zhuang Fan was the only one who came from an ordinary background. Perhaps, due to a sense of camaraderie, the inner disciples were rather supportive of Zhuang Fan.
Zhuang Fan smiled faintly and nodded in response to the inner disciples greeting. He had always been approachable and kind like the gentle spring breeze.
Meanwhile, in a small and quiet valley in the Simplicity Celestial Sects estate.
A beautiful young lady with an enchanting figure who was dressed in a red long robe stood casually in front of a waterfall as she looked at the young man in front of her. Zheng Hong Yi, did you come looking for me because of Duan Ling Tian?
The young man said with a solemn expression on his face, Wang Hong, in the past, we competed for the position of a true disciple. However, the position was taken away by Duan Ling Tian as soon as he arrived. Are you willing? The young man was none other than Zheng Hong Yi. He had rushed here as soon as he left the valley where the inner disciples and true disciples resided.
What can I do even if I feel unwilling? This is your masters decision. Even my grandfather cant do anything about it, Wang Hong said with a smile as she looked at Wang Feng meaningfully. It was as though she could not care less that the position of a true disciple had been taken away.
Wang Hong, quit pretending in front of me. Those who dont know you might be fooled, but I know you care about this more than anyone else, Zheng Hong Yi said with a sneer.
