"Such dense spiritual energy, it seems that this dragon boat must have been enriched with a spirit vein."
Gu Yuan imdiately sensed the uniqueness of this suspended dragon boat.
The spiritual energy on the boat was extrely dense and pure, several tis more than that outside. In the distant spirit fields and dicinal fields, there were so spirit grain and spirit dicine planted.
So of the pavilions were resplendent in gold and jade, built magnificently.
This is not only a gigantic flying escape treasure; from the perspective of spiritual energy, it is more like a mobile cultivation cave mansion!
At this ti, a group of disciples from dicine King Mountain surrounded them.
Among these people were both n and won, each with extraordinary appearances and outstanding temperant. Moreover, their auras were quite powerful, be it domineering, ethereal, deep, or fiercely eruptive like fire.
All of them were cultivators at the Celestial Human Realm, and judging from their aura, they were much stronger than the likes of Elder Wu and the mysterious old monster.
This was not surprising.
The people before him were all elite disciples within dicine King Mountain, with excellent talent and qualifications, studying superior Daoist scriptures, often receiving guidance from the great figures of the mountain, and having no lack of cultivation resources. Naturally, they were not simple.
However, Gu Yuan noticed two people among them.
One was a young man in a white robe, with handso features and an air of elegance, holding a jade fan. His aura was mysterious and unfathomable, making Gu Yuan unable to easily see through him.
The other was a woman in a green dress, with a beautiful appearance, and her eyebrows resembled a painting. She had a calm and indifferent deanor, standing gracefully, like a cyan lotus erging unstained from the mud.
This woman’s presence was in no way inferior to that of the white-robed young man in Gu Yuan’s eyes.
"Greetings, Master He Ling!"
"Honored Elder, the disciples greet you!"
"Ninth Elder!"
Upon seeing He Ling True Master, they all saluted respectfully.
"No need for formalities."
He Ling True Master gestured for everyone to rise and then said,
"Allow to introduce you all."
He started introducing both sides to each other.
He pointed to the young man in the white robe and said, "This is Chu He, your senior brother, a true disciple of our sect."
Imdiately, Gu Yuan, Xia Xiuxue, Li Changqing, and others’ expressions changed slightly, and they all saluted.
"I am Li Changqing, greetings to Senior Brother Chu!"
"Greetings, Senior Brother..."
"I am Gu Yuan, greetings to Senior Brother Chu!"
"..."
The servant disciples, outer disciples, and inner sect disciples of dicine King Mountain could all enter the mountain gate directly after passing a talent test.
However, true disciples were different.
Many disciples of dicine King Mountain were gathered from all over Qinzhou, each talented. Even if they were servant disciples, they were rare masters in the world.
It could be said that dicine King Mountain collected the essence of Qinzhou.
And each true disciple of dicine King Mountain, except for a very few, was a genius among geniuses, outstanding from countless disciples, excellent in talent, fortune, and fate, as well as Dao heart and will, and even divine techniques and Dao foundations.
It could be said that any true disciple, barring unforeseen events, could basically forge a Golden Core and beco a revered great cultivator!
Such a person would inevitably beco a high-level figure in command at dicine King Mountain, respected by thousands, a matter nailed down.
Among them, the outstanding ones, such as Li Changsheng and the like, even had the potential to prove their primordial spirit and achieve immortality!
Such individuals, as long as they weren’t fools, no one would easily offend.
Yet, when "Gu Yuan" was ntioned, the surrounding fell silent.
Chu He and the others all looked over with a variety of gazes: curious, surprised, puzzled, suspicious, exploratory, unfriendly, cold, even malicious.
Facing so many different gazes, Gu Yuan’s expression remained unchanged.
He had anticipated this.
To wear a crown, one must bear its weight.
Upon being found to have two great Spirit Body Talents, receiving the attention of He Ling True Master, and being seen as the future pillar of the sect branch, various situations were bound to arise.
"So it’s Junior Brother Gu Yuan."
Chu He smiled slightly, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, "I’ve heard of your great na for a long ti. Today, seeing you in person truly lives up to your reputation."
"Senior Brother Chu praises too much."
Gu Yuan replied modestly, his attitude neither cold nor overly familiar.
The Chu He before him seed polite, but Gu Yuan, with his Sword Heart Talent and cultivated Sword Intent, could keenly sense a hint of hostility from him.
Gu Yuan understood well that dicine King Mountain’s twelve true disciple slots currently had three vacancies, with nine occupied true disciples.
Chu He was one of them, and he ca from a family faction.
Naturally, he bore so hostility toward himself.
In fact, among these nine true disciples, seven spots were taken by family factions, while only two were occupied by the sect’s lineage.
This alone indicated the relationship between the family factions and the sect’s lineage, as well as the situation between the two.
He Ling True Master glanced at everyone and pointed to the previously noticed extraordinary woman, saying, "And this is your senior sister Murong Wushuang, also a true disciple of our sect."
Gu Yuan and the others naturally saluted again.
Murong Wushuang’s expression remained calm, and she nodded slightly.
Xia Xiuxue and Niu Youde were obviously a bit awed and at a loss for how to act towards this senior sister, thinking that Murong Wushuang might not be favorably disposed toward them.
However, Gu Yuan didn’t mind Senior Sister Murong’s indifference.
This woman was also a true disciple from a family faction, with a cold deanor towards everyone, not targeting them specifically.
After the introductions finished, everyone got to know one another. He Ling True Master summoned so maids and said to them, "Alright, you can go rest now, I have other arrangents for tomorrow."
"Yes."
After Niu Youde and others were led away by the maids, Murong Wushuang and Chu He also left, leaving only He Ling True Master, Gu Yuan, and another young man who was short, sturdy, and robust on the deck.
This young man wasn’t considered handso, but his aura was quite heated, like a human-shaped true fla, constantly emitting intense light and heat.
His plain appearance exuded a certain honesty, sowhat resembling Niu Youde.
This man’s surna was Sha, nad Luosheng, a disciple of the sect lineage. He remained behind, indicating a close relationship with He Ling True Master.
"Master Uncle."
Sha Luosheng greeted respectfully.
He Ling True Master waved his hand, drawing in so power of restriction to confine the space, showing a bit of coldness on his face, "Besides you, who else ca?"
Sha Luosheng’s expression turned solemn, bowing, "Besides Ancestor Kumu who controls the suspended dragon boat, Uncle Li Changsheng also ca."
"Li Changsheng?"
He Ling True Master raised an eyebrow, expressing cold laughter, "Wasn’t he supposed to be in retreat in the back mountain? Why did he co to join the excitent too?"
"This ti, the family factions claid eighty percent of the Red Dragon Order slots, leaving our sect branch with only twenty percent, which I didn’t mind. But would he, a great cultivator who has ford a Golden Core, also squeeze out the juniors’ slots and opportunities?!"
