The figure at the top waved their hand. “Go ditate facing the wall at the back mountain.”
“Yes,” Elder Liqing saluted, turned into white light, and departed.
After a mont of silence, an elder in the hall spoke up. “Master, do you think Elder Liqing will break through the Nascent Soul stage within a hundred years?”
“There’s a 70 percent chance,” the master sighed. “Elder Liqing has exceptional talent and has had a smooth journey in her cultivation since the beginning. But she’s also too fast and too smooth, and her state of mind is not yet complete.
I’m worried she won’t be able to overco the Inner Demon Tribulation during the Nascent Soul stage, that’s why I allowed her to take over the Shanyue Kingdom. After experiencing this failure, her state of mind will surely advance further.”
The elders nodded in agreent, then looked solemn. “Master, with the Blood God Sect’s style of doing things, they’re afraid they won’t just let this go.”
Just then, a jade slip flew in from outside the hall.
The Silver Moon Sect master reached out and grabbed it, scanning it with his divine sense. He slowly said, “There have been many Blood God Sect disciples appearing within our territory. ”
The elder from earlier spoke up in a low voice. “It must be the Blood God Sect’s preparation for revenge!”
The Silver Moon Sect master pondered for a mont. “Our Silver Moon Sect’s initiation ceremony is just around the corner. We cannot be affected.
“Spread the word. Tell all disciples above the Foundation Establishnt stage to go out and patrol. If they discover any disciples of the Blood God Sect, kill them without rcy! ”
“We respect the sect master’s decree!” The elders bowed and left.
Every elder of their Silver Moon Sect could open a peak and take in disciples.
Unlike the Blood God Sect’s free-range, fake master-disciple relationship, they had a true master-disciple relationship and disciples were personally taught by Golden Core elders.
The orders were usually given directly by masters like them.
Black Iron City, a remote small city under the control of the Silver Moon Sect, welcod an uninvited guest today.
It was Zhang Chen!
However, at this mont, not only had Zhang Chen used the Formless Demon Scripture to change his appearance, but he had also used the Yin Energy Isolating Technique to hide his cultivation aura. He looked no different from an ordinary person.
He was not interested in snatching the Silver Moon Sect’s spiritual root disciples at all.
He was not soone who lacked blood essence. Core Formation was only a matter of ti. Why would he risk his life in an enemy sect for a little blood essence? The gains did not make up for the losses.
Therefore, he chose a small remote city and planned to hide for a month before returning to the sect.
The mont Zhang Chen entered the city, he saw the commoners rushing in one direction.
“The immortals of the Silver Moon Clan are taking in disciples. Let’s go and watch the show!”
“I wonder which child will be chosen by an immortal.”
“Let’s go quickly. If we’re slow, we won’t have anywhere to stand!”
Although the Silver Moon Sect’s disciple recruitnt ceremony would be held in a month, they had to choose disciples with spiritual roots in advance and send them to the sect.
To the Blood God Sect, disciples were just pigs raised with spiritual roots and they did not care about anything else.
Zhang Chen had never seen how the orthodox sects chose their disciples, so he mingled with the crowd curiously.
Soon he followed the crowd to an open space.
In the center of the open space were three disciples of the Silver Moon Sect.
One was at the seventh level of Qi Refinent, one was at the eighth level, and one was at the ninth level.
The seventh-level Qi Refinent disciple of the Silver Moon Sect said loudly, “Our Silver Moon Sect only accepts children under the age of nine. Anyone under nine years old can participate in the assessnt.”
The common people obviously knew this and gently pushed their own children to the front.
The disciple of the Silver Moon Sect took out a seven-colored gem and said to the many children, “One by one, co forward and touch the gem in my hand.”
A bold child stepped forward and reached out to touch the gem, and it imdiately emitted a five-colored light.
The disciple of the Silver Moon Sect said indifferently, “Five attributes, inferior spiritual roots, disqualified. Next one.”
The child lowered his head in disappointnt and turned to walk back to his parents.
Not long after, another child touched the gem, and it emitted a three-colored light.
“Three attributes, interdiate spiritual roots, acceptable!”
eting the spiritual root requirents didn’t an they could join the Silver Moon Sect.
For the righteous sect, temperant was more important than aptitude. They wanted to avoid wasting a lot of resources and training a monster who would betray his master and destroy their lineage.
The eighth-level Qi Refinent disciple of the Silver Moon Sect ca to the child and took out a compass, infusing it with mana.
The compass emitted a ray of light that penetrated the child’s forehead. A mont later, a gray mist rose from the compass.
The eighth-level Qi Refining disciple of the Silver Moon Sect frowned, “Unqualified temperant, eliminated!”
An hour later, a child finally passed both the spiritual root and temperant tests.
Zhang Chen noticed that the Silver Moon Sect had very high requirents for its disciples, striving for perfection and not just accepting anyone.
Because there was still the third test, comprehension!
The spiritual roots determined the speed at which the body absorbed spiritual energy, while aptitude determined the ability to understand spells and the speed of cultivation.
One’s aptitude determined the difference between being a straight-A student and a poor perforr.
Out of 1,000 children, 50 possessed spiritual roots, but in the end, only four passed the triple assessnt.
After the assessnt ended, Zhang Chen was about to leave with the crowd when he suddenly slled a familiar scent of blood.
It was the work of a disciple from the Blood God Sect!
“These disciples with spiritual roots belong to our Blood God Sect!”
Seven blood snakes erged from the crowd, with three attacking the disciples of the Silver Moon Sect and four slithering towards the children who passed the assessnt.
Zhang Chen looked up and saw that it was Li Mumin, whom he hadn’t seen in a long ti.
Because of a previous disagreent with Xu Yixian and his team, Li Mumin no longer worked in teams with others.
Furthermore, as he was alone, he believed that it was easier to take action in remote towns, where the danger was lower, so he chose this remote small town.
“Oh no! It’s a demon of the Blood God Sect!” The three disciples of the Silver Moon Sect were frightened.
They only had the cultivation of the Qi Refinent stage, and could barely defend themselves against an attack from the Foundation Establishnt stage, let alone taking care of the four children
As they saw the blood snakes about to take the four children away, a figure suddenly appeared in the air and shot out a cold light.
“Silver Moon Cold Light!”
“Kakakakakaka…’
Under the cold light, several blood snakes froze.
The three disciples of the Silver Moon Sect looked up and were pleasantly surprised, “Great! It’s Liang Wei, Senior Brother Liang!”
“Ninth level of the Foundation Establishnt realm!” Li Mumin sensed the cultivation of the person who took action in the air and imdiately turned into blood light to run away.
Zhang Chen looked at Liang Wei and narrowed his eyes. He was actually an acquaintance.
He was the direct disciple of the Silver Moon Sect who took on the role of Imperial Preceptor in the Shanyue Kingdom previously.
“Trying to run?” Liang Wei took out a mirror of ice and shone it towards the blood light.
Li Mumin’s body stiffened, and he failed to use the Blood Escape technique. The difference in their magical cultivation was too great.
“It’s over!” Li Mumin’s heart was filled with despair, and his face was ashen.
If it were any other disciple of the Blood God Sect, Zhang Chen would not have cared, but Li Mumin had saved his life before, and he intended to save Li Mumin’s life as well.
“Senior Brother Li, it’s been a long ti.”
Zhang Chen flew into the air and greeted Li Mumin with a smile.
“There’s actually a Blood God Sect disciple hiding!” Liang Wei was surprised, as his ninth level Foundation Establishnt spiritual consciousness had not sensed it.
However, he was relieved to find that Zhang Chen was only at the third level of Foundation Establishnt.
“Junior Brother Zhang!” Li Mumin was surorised but then sighed. “The
opponent is at the ninth level of Foundation Establishnt. We are no match for him. Junior Brother Zhang, there is no need for you to show yourself..”
