His eyes slightly turned, falling on Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan felt a sudden tightening of his skin, as if he was being seen through, and he beca increasingly respectful:
"This is your disciple, right? His foundation is pure and stable, his talent and aptitude are good, his swordsmanship is comndable, and he’s quite young. He’s indeed a fine child."
"Such a good disciple, you wouldn’t find many even if you searched all over dicine King Mountain, you’re really lucky to have found a treasure!"
The more he looked at Gu Yuan, the brighter True Monarch Withered Wood’s eyes beca, showing a touch of appreciation.
"Pardon , Uncle Master, you’ve made laugh."
He Ling True Master moved subtly to stand in front of Gu Yuan and said, "Uncle Master, you’ve co down the mountain this ti. I wonder if the Sect Leader has any orders?"
"You cunning boy, are you afraid that I might snatch your disciple?"
True Monarch Withered Wood slowly stood up, only reaching He Ling True Master’s shoulder, and pointed at his nose, scolding:
"Let tell you, I’m not interested!"
He seed stiff and expressionless, yet his temper was quite fiery, scolding without hesitation.
He Ling True Master was not angry at all, instead laughed and said, "Uncle Master misunderstood... how could your junior nephew have such thoughts."
"Hmph... smooth talker!"
True Monarch Withered Wood shook his head and said, "This ti, I descended the mountain per orders, but the Sect Leader had no specific commands, just told to act as I see fit."
"Act as you see fit..."
He Ling True Master nodded knowingly, understanding the aning behind the words.
"This disciple of yours is also my junior, since it’s our first eting, I can’t et him empty-handed. Here’s a bit of the Essence of Wood that I casually refined, take it."
True Monarch Withered Wood, with hands behind his back, walked to a short bamboo, plucked a leaf with his hand, and with a flick of his fingers, it flew into Gu Yuan’s hand.
Gu Yuan looked down and saw the bamboo leaf in his hand transform into a marble-sized jade green crystal stone, containing an exceedingly rich vitality, as if it could quickly grow into a dense forest if it fell to the ground.
The Essence of Wood is a spiritual material of the Five Elents Wood Attribute, often artificially gathered, which can be used to forge Magical Artifacts and Treasures, as well as for Alchemy, Cultivation of Divine Techniques, and even direct refining. Only a Golden Core Great Cultivator who cultivates the Wood Elent Daoist Scripture Divine Techniques can condense it from the Plant Spirit Root.
And the one in his hand was undoubtedly condensed by a Yin God Giant, making it of superior quality.
"Thank you, Grandmaster."
Gu Yuan hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
True Monarch Withered Wood waved his hand, said no more, and started chatting with He Ling True Master about other matters within the sect.
After receiving the benefit, Gu Yuan sensibly remained in the background, standing by without making a sound.
Soon after, the master and disciple took their leave of True Monarch Withered Wood and returned to a pavilion.
"Though your Grandmaster Withered Wood hails from a noble family faction, he gets along well with my master, who is also your grandmaster. He can help with so small matters, although whether he can really help you out is uncertain."
He Ling True Master whispered as they walked.
Small matters can be referred to him, implying major ones were out of the question... Gu Yuan nodded, "Disciple understands!"
"Half a month remains before the Red Dragon Immortal Palace opens. You don’t have a spot, but if you stay with , you can still enter. However, on this floating Dragon Boat, the Spiritual Qi is abundant, and so Restriction Arrays are set, with living conditions not much different from inside the sect. You can take this opportunity to settle down, while I handle other matters. If you have any questions, you can ask them."
He Ling True Master called two maids, instructing them to take care of Gu Yuan’s daily needs before floating away.
"Servant Qiu Zhi (Qiu Yue) pays respects to Young Master Gu."
The two maids, with graceful postures and gentle smiles, saluted Gu Yuan.
Their movents were swift and powerful, eyes sharp, actions agile like spiritual cats, clearly practitioners themselves, possessing an Innate Refining cultivation level.
Such cultivation strength would make them notable figures in the martial world, yet in dicine King Mountain, they were rely maids assigned to serve others.
"You need not be so formal, you may stand."
Gu Yuan did not put on any airs, speaking calmly:
"Calling Young Master is unnecessary, you’re also disciples of dicine King Mountain, just call Senior Brother."
Indeed, these two were also disciples of dicine King Mountain, although only as Servant Disciples, specifically selected for service.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Gu!"
The two exchanged a glance and, seeing Gu Yuan’s amicability, couldn’t help but inwardly sigh with relief.
Though they were disciples, the difference between them and servants was hardly significant; encountering so ill-tempered Inner Sect or True Disciples could result in grievances.
In worse scenarios, losing their lives would not be surprising.
"Please follow , Senior Brother."
Qiu Yue smiled as she led the way, guiding Gu Yuan to a pavilion.
...
"Senior Brother, this is your residence. If you’re not satisfied or need anything, feel free to let us know."
Qiu Yue opened the door, turning her head to speak, her smile radiant.
Gu Yuan examined the residence, finding the pavilion spacious, brightly lit, and lavishly decorated, with various spiritual flowers and exotic plants adorning it.
In one corner stood a Gilded Phoenix Patterned Incense Burner, emitting curling threads of incense smoke that invigorated the spirit, cleared the mind, and prevented the danger of deviation.
Besides here, there were other training rooms, studies, secret chambers, guest rooms, and bedrooms, each with its own unique features.
Moreover, the entire pavilion was equipped with restrictions, fully furnished with all necessities.
Co alti, Qiu Zhi and Qiu Yue would bring gourt als cooked with Spirit Grain and Spirit Beast at, these dishes full of abundant Spiritual Qi and nutrition, comparable to Grain Elixirs but with superior taste!
"No need, this is already very good."
Gu Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
As an Inner Sect Disciple, it was only natural for him to receive such treatnt on the floating Dragon Boat.
Hailing from an impoverished rural background, Gu Yuan was not picky, finding this level of treatnt more than satisfactory.
In the training room, Gu Yuan took out his newly obtained Inner Sect Disciple Identity Token and activated the restrictions of the room, causing Restriction Spiritual Light to be triggered along the walls.
In such circumstances, unexpected disturbances could be prevented. Even if soone tried to intrude, Gu Yuan would be alerted first.
He then sat cross-legged and began to contemplate the other Divine Techniques recorded in the Primordial True Water Scripture.
Divine Techniques are the external manifestation of a cultivator’s Dao and thods, the foundation of their being.
Although Gu Yuan had currently mastered an Upper Grade Sword Dao Divine Technique, it might still be sowhat insufficient to deal with various troubles.
Extra Divine Techniques an additional ans at one’s disposal.
The Void Moon Reflected Sword Formulas is one of the top-grade Divine Techniques in the Primordial True Water Scripture, with another top-grade Divine Technique called "Mirror Flower Water Moon," which is not any easier to cultivate than the forr, perhaps even more challenging.
To cultivate this top-grade Divine Technique, a certain Spiritual Object known as the Mirage Dragon Pearl is needed.
The Mirage Dragon, a spiritual creature with True Dragon Bloodline, typically dwells in the deep sea, naturally gifted with Illusion Techniques.
