Feeling the varied gazes around him, Li Changqing remained composed and at ease.
It seed as if he weren’t facing dicine King Mountain’s entrance examination but rely an ordinary test.
He first cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards He Ling True Master, then raised his palm to press it against the Profound chanism Disc.
Bang!
The next mont, the Profound chanism Disc suddenly erupted with a dazzling red light!
The red light was vivid and splendid, carrying an incomparably intense heat that felt as if it could scorch the Divine Soul, causing the few people standing nearby to quickly step back.
"Spiritual Body...it’s definitely a Spiritual Body!"
Many were dumbfounded, almost at a loss for words.
The spectacle was far greater than Xia Xiuxue’s earlier display, and judging by the manifestation, it was clearly a Spiritual Body, most likely a Fire Spirit Body!
He Ling True Master showed no expression, neither joy nor surprise, leaving others unsure of what he was thinking.
The changes in the Profound chanism Disc continued.
The red light churned and bubbled, like boiling water or mist caught in a fierce wind.
Before long, the red light gathered and transford into a strangely shaped Crimson Tripod Furnace, with nine apertures. Inside, it contained a True Fla, emitting a terrifying aura of burning all things.
Many people’s expressions changed; this strange tripod furnace was the external form of Li Changqing’s talent, manifested by the Profound chanism Disc. Regardless of his talent, it was undoubtedly extraordinary!
"Crimson Tripod Furnace...what kind of talent is this?"
Gu Yuan muttered to himself. Earlier, he had used Sword Heart as his eyes and at first glance "saw" Li Changqing’s body like a furnace, locking True Fla within, and the scene before him confird he was not mistaken.
Although a Spiritual Body was detected, there was no trace of joy on He Ling True Master’s face, seemingly unenthused.
Noticing He Ling True Master’s deanor, Baochan True Master secretly laughed, being aware of the dicine King Mountain’s hidden agendas.
The family lineage has overshadowed the sect lineage in recent years, becoming more aggressive, with ambitions to annex the sect lineage and turn the entire dicine King Mountain into the family’s private property.
Li Changqing was a pawn placed by the family lineage to infiltrate the sect lineage!
He Ling True Master, being a key figure within the sect lineage, certainly recognized the family’s sche.
However, recognizing it was one thing, he had little he could do.
Because the family’s sche was done openly!
They were righteously and blatantly inserting Li Changqing into the sect lineage.
If He Ling True Master disregarded sect rules and interfered, it would play into certain people’s hands, as they could also choose to break the rules!
Baochan True Master feigned curiosity, asking the nearby Xingyunzi,
"I have limited experience, might I ask Daoist Xingyunzi, what talent is this?"
"A physique without flaws, akin to a furnace, with True Fla radiance within."
Xingyunzi, aware of Baochan True Master’s minor sches, also chose not to involve himself, explaining,
"This is the Red Cauldron Spirit Body, a special type of Fire Spirit Body, naturally suited for cultivating Fire Dao Skill. dicine King Mountain has found a treasure this ti."
As he spoke, he couldn’t help but praise, "Prior, the Li Family produced Li Changsheng, a Primordial Spirit Seed, and now presents Li Changqing. In my view, the Li Family has two exceptional talents in one generation..."
Baochan True Master nodded slightly.
Though he was an elder of the Gu God Sect with a contentious relationship with dicine King Mountain, he had to admit that Li Changsheng was imnsely talented, deed a vessel for the Dao, a primordial spirit seed.
Even among the dozen True Inheritance disciples in the Gu God Sect, not many could compare.
Now, with the addition of Li Changqing, a Red Cauldron Spirit Body, this was certainly advantageous for dicine King Mountain, but for He Ling True Master and even the Gu God Sect, it was not necessarily.
He Ling True Master seed unfazed by Baochan True Master’s instigating words, addressing Li Changqing,
"You possess the Red Cauldron Spirit Body, a high-level talent among many Spiritual Bodies. According to sect rules, with your talent, granting you a True Inheritance position is permissible."
"However, True Inheritance positions at dicine King Mountain are limited, with only twelve per generation. To beco a True Disciple, you must either compete with peers upon advancing to Celestial Human or obtain approval from two Supre Elders."
"Therefore, I grant you the status of an Inner Sect Disciple. As for a True Inheritance position, it depends on your future fortune!"
Li Changqing bowed in thanks, "I understand, thank you, Elder!"
After Li Changqing saluted and respectfully stepped back, seeing others with expressions of envy, jealousy, and resentnt, He Ling True Master felt sowhat troubled.
Li Changqing could not be trusted, yet he must be incorporated into the sect lineage.
Rejecting him or employing other underhanded asures, regardless of family lineage reactions, his fellow disciples and friends might not consent.
Talented individuals are indeed scarce!
Over the years, the sect lineage faced a shortage, having not recruited disciples of exceptional talent for quite so ti, leaving the remaining ordinary disciples ineffective, unable to shoulder the sect lineage’s revitalization!
With the sudden ergence of a Red Cauldron Spirit Body, a pri cultivation seed, his fellow daoists, eager to nurture successors, might even overlook obvious family lineage malice and seize this enticing bait!
Even He Ling True Master himself, if not for Li Changqing’s identity issues, would consider accepting him as a disciple.
He had long been at odds with fellow elder Zixiao True Master, publicly and privately clashing for over three hundred years.
Over these centuries, in Daoist Divine Techniques and cultivation practices, they have each had their victories.
Yet recently, Zixiao True Master took in a Five Thunders Body, a seed with deep destiny and enduring fortune, surpassing him!
In the coming years, once that Sun Zhong matures, Zixiao True Master could beco even more arrogant and domineering!
Sword Cultivators are traditionally proud and steadfast, preferring to break than bend. How could he allow such things to happen?
The testing continued.
Lu Ming and Yu Zhengmao, so were eliminated, others succeeded.
Notably, both Lu Ming and Yu Zhengmao, with superior roots, were recruited as Outer Disciples.
Seeing only a few candidates left, He Ling True Master had little expectation.
To him, among these people, only Xia Xiuxue with her Hundred Herbs Body could barely be considered a surprise.
Soon, a tall, broad-backed young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes stepped forward.
This person was Niu Youde.
Gu Yuan beca spirited, eager to see what kind of physique Niu Youde possessed.
"Oh?"
Seeing Niu Youde, He Ling True Master’s eyes narrowed, a hint of uncertainty erging.
Earlier, amidst the crowd, he wasn’t aware, but now he noticed the unusual feel of Niu Youde, rooted and immovable.
This stirred so hope within him.
Pointing to the Profound chanism Disc, he instructed, "Place your hand on it."
"Yes, Master."
Niu Youde respectfully bowed, then pressed his palm against the Profound chanism Disc.
Almost instantly as his palm touched it, the surface of the Profound chanism Disc glowed with yellow light!
This light was deep and solid, earthy yellow, with an incomprehensible, heavy aura.
The yellow light consolidated, transforming into a miniature earth-yellow mountain, equal in profound aura to Li Changqing’s Red Cauldron Spirit Body.
"Indeed..."
Gu Yuan’s eyes glimred.
Another Spiritual Body!
And evidently, it was an Earth Spirit Body.
