I Can Accumulate Proficiency, Starting from Alchemy Chapter 64 - 64: Bai Wanqing

Chapter 64: Bai Wanqing

Translator: 549690339

In the Xuandan Sect, when disciples from the Outer Peaks, who have reached the seventh level of Qi Cultivation stage, enter the Inner Peak, they have two choices.

The first is to choose a Foundation Establishnt Stage Cultivator as a master, becoming a true disciple, thus creating a stronger bond between master and disciple.

The second option is to be affiliated with a Foundation Establishnt Stage Cultivator, where the relationship between them is basically close to none.

Even so, many tis, these Foundation Establishnt Elders do not know how many disciples are affiliated under their guidance.

In another perspective, these disciples, who are affiliated with certain Elders, can be considered as free disciples. When they advance to the Foundation Establishnt stage, the affiliation is automatically dissolved.

However, if it is the first choice of a true disciple, regardless if they reach the Foundation Establishnt stage or Golden Core stage, their master will remain their master, emphasizing a “one day as a teacher, a lifeti as a father” kind of inheritance relationship.

The main reason Han Yi was able to join the Azure Dragon Peak was that Luo Yunzhou’s master approved his application and placed him under her guidance.

One should know that Azure Dragon Peak is the number one peak of the Inner Peaks, and the competition to enter is fierce.

Whether it’s disciples from the Outer Peaks or from one of the other eight peaks of the Inner Peaks, many apply to transfer to Azure Dragon Peak. The available spots in the peak are limited.

This ti, due to Luo Yunzhou’s introduction, Han Yi has no choice but to pay respects to his new elder. This way, he won’t be regarded as arrogant and conceited.

Azure Dragon Peak, Azure Dragon Palace, Elder’s cultivation quiet room.

Luo Yunzhou pushes the door open and enters with familiarity, and Han Yi follows closely behind.

In the room, a female cultivator is sitting on a cushion. When she sees the two entering, her gaze goes beyond Luo Yunzhou and falls on Han Yi.

As their gazes et, Han Yi is struck by her stunning appearance.

The female cultivator in front of him wears a dark-colored robe that symbolizes her status as an elder. Since she is sitting, Han Yi cannot determine her figure and does not dare to look around.

However, in terms of appearance, she is the most stunning woman Han Yi has seen since his arrival in this world.

A silver hairpin holds her black hair in place.

She has a delicate and beautiful face, with bright eyes, refined eyebrows, and a perfect nose, making her both exquisite and stunning.

Han Yi does not dare to look too long and lowers his head to show respect.

“Junior Han Yi, pays respects to Elder Bai.” Han Yi slightly bends his waist and clasps his hands in greeting.

“Stand up, your na is Han Yi.”

Bai Wanqing’s voice is clear and bright, not like soone in her forties, but more like soone in her twenties.

That’s right.

This female cultivator is Luo Yunzhou’s master. On the way here, Luo Yunzhou briefly introduced her to Han Yi.

Her full na is Bai Wanqing, an early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator, only in her early forties this year. However, female cultivators often have their appearance preserved, making her look like she is in her twenties.

Halfway along the road, Luo Yunzhou also warned Han Yi that his master doesn’t like chatty disciples, so he should be cautious and speak as little as possible.

Han Yi takes the advice to heart.

“Yes, junior Han Yi,” Han Yi replies.

Following that, there is a silence of three breaths. Han Yi can’t help but raise his head and see Bai Wanqing’s bright eyes staring at him. They exchange a glance, and he imdiately lowers his head again without any change in expression.

“You are good,”

“I heard from Yunzhou that you saved him in Tianqing City?”

Han Yi takes a glance at Luo Yunzhou by his side. It seems that Luo Yunzhou didn’t tell Bai Wanqing about him killing people beyond his level. Otherwise, Bai Wanqing would not ask this question.

Han Yi replies, “As fellow sect brothers, we should help each other.”

Bai Wanqing’s eyes flash with a hint of appreciation, and she asks warmly, “Would you like to beco my disciple?”

Han Yi is slightly surprised. This elder is actually interested in him, but he already made his decision and declines her offer without hesitation, “Junior’s talent is ordinary, and I’m afraid I cannot live up to Elder Bai’s kindness.”

Bai Wanqing smiles, the first ti she has since Han Yi entered the room. Han Yi lifts his head and almost stares blankly at her.

“Not bad, you are neither arrogant nor impatient. You are very good.”

“If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can co and find .”

“Practice well, you may leave.”

Fortunately, Bai Wanqing did not insist on keeping him and even told him to find her if he encounters any difficulties. Han Yi naturally takes her words as a courtesy, thanks her, and leaves.

Luo Yunzhou follows him out as well.

“1 told you, right? Among the female Foundation Establishnt Elders, my master is one of the most stunningly beautiful,”

Oh, yes, Brother Han, I want to tell you, my master has no Dao companion right now. If you ever reach the Foundation Establishnt stage, maybe you could pursue her.”

Han Yi’s mouth twitches slightly.

This guy is willing to use even his own master to win him over. He’s got quite the skill.

“Brother Han, today is your first day moving to the peak, co, let show you around our Azure Dragon Peak and admire the celestial scenery of the number one Inner Peak.”

Luo Yunzhou is full of excitent and wants to take Han Yi on a tour of Azure Dragon Peak.

Han Yi originally wants to refuse, but on further thought, he will be staying on Azure Dragon Peak for a long period, so it’s better to familiarize himself with the place. This way, he won’t risk embarrassing himself later on.

Fittingly, Luo Yunzhou is so enthusiastic it’s hard to say no, and besides, it won’t take much ti.

Additionally,

Among the nine Inner Peaks, the Azure Dragon Peak ranks first.

He was quite interested in this as well.

Before this, he had focused on his spiritual practice and only went out to visit the twenty-one markets of the Inner and Outer Peaks and a few administrative great halls of the Xuandan Sect.

He had already visited all eighteen markets of the Outer Peak when he was at Little Lingxu Peak.

As for the three Inner Peak markets, located in Fuhai, Red Sun, and White Tiger, Han Yi visited the Red Sun Fang most frequently because he had established an initial relationship of trust with the Nine Dragons Store there. Although this relationship was only preliminary, it saved him a lot of trouble.

So before this, Han Yi had only visited Azure Dragon Peak a few tis. Before transcending, he had been there once, and after submitting the application, he visited once more.

Both visits were rushed and didn’t allow for lingering.

He had heard from Luo Yunzhou that there were about three hundred courtyards on Azure Dragon Peak, but the number of disciples was limited to less than two hundred. The courtyard accommodations were not full due to the limited resources.

The resources here referred to cultivation resources, and the core resource was the fourth-stage high-grade Spirit Vein under Azure Dragon Peak.

More than two hundred disciples would put a great burden on the fourth-stage high-grade Spirit Vein, and over ti, the Spirit Vein would lose its grade. Therefore, this policy was adopted.

First, Luo Yunzhou took Han Yi on a familiarization tour of Azure Dragon Palace, both inside and outside. The palace was elegant and rich in Immortal Qi. The higher the location, the higher the status it represented.

Han Yi gazed at the tallest tower on Azure Dragon Peak, where a Golden Core Stage cultivator was stationed all year round. This cultivator also controlled the formations and restrictions of Azure Dragon Peak, which once activated, could even withstand the attack of a Golden Core Peak cultivator.

“Master Golden Core resides there, Junior Brother Han. There is always a Master Golden Core stationed at the tower on the peak.”

“He is a real master.”

Luo Yunzhou sighed with admiration, the envy in his eyes obvious, and spoke.

“What is the true definition of a master?” Han Yi had never heard this term before and asked.

“Oh, Junior Brother Han doesn’t know?” Luo Yunzhou explained, “True cultivation actually starts at the Foundation Establishnt stage.”

“Foundation Establishnt is the beginning of cultivation. It builds the foundation.”

“As for the Golden Core Stage cultivators, there is a saying: ‘Swallow one Golden Core and realize that our fate is not controlled by the heavens.’ Only then can one beco ‘real’ and earn the title of ‘master’.”

Han Yi learned a valuable lesson.

This was the first ti he had heard this and realized that Luo Yunzhou’s theoretical knowledge was much more solid than his own. He should ask for more guidance in the future.

Then,

Luo Yunzhou took Han Yi out of Azure Dragon Palace and wandered about Azure Dragon Peak, where various courtyards of different sizes and characteristics were situated. So of them even had additional formations set up apart from the natural restrictions inherent to the peak, creating an interesting view from afar.

Han Yi didn’t get too close but strolled to the edge of the fairyland peak and looked out at the rolling Cloud Sea. He saw an Immortal Boat breaking through the Cloud Sea, passing between the Azure Dragon Peak and the extrely distant Black Tortoise Peak, barely visible.

“This place is called Azure Dragon Cliff.”

“Whenever I’m frustrated, 1 co here to observe the Cloud Sea, admire the Immortal Mountain, and gain peace of mind and determination.”

“Junior Brother Han, this is the first Inner Peak, and you will never regret it.”

Luo Yunzhou said loudly, reaching out to embrace the Immortal Clouds.

“Indeed, it is a truly picturesque fairyland.”

Han Yi took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. As he breathed out, his body and mind beca calm.

“The Immortal Path is endless, and this will be the place where I prove my way.” Han Yi’s inner heart was filled with great ambition.

“Right, 1 just rembered that my master has an important matter for to attend to.”

“I apologize, Junior Brother Han, but this is as far as I can guide you. From here on, you can explore the Azure Dragon Peak on your own, and it will definitely not disappoint you.”

Luo Yunzhou suddenly rembered that he had sothing to do and bowed as he took his leave.

Han Yi bowed and thanked him in return.

As he watched Luo Yunzhou leave, Han Yi turned around and stood on Azure Dragon Cliff, continuing to gaze at the Cloud Sea.

A mont later,

He left Azure Dragon Cliff, already excited, and decided to walk around the peak.

After walking for half an hour, he reached the opposite side of the fairyland peak and decided to return to his new courtyard.

As he passed by an uninhabited courtyard at so distance, he suddenly noticed sothing unusual.

A faint flicker of spiritual energy fluctuation flashed in the courtyard.

If it were a few months ago when Han Yi was at the sixth stage of Qi cultivation, he might not have noticed this subtle change. However, he had already advanced to the seventh stage of Qi cultivation and had thoroughly stabilized his cultivation base. His divine sense had leaped far beyond that of the sixth stage.

It was with this divine sense that he noticed the faint fluctuation.

“Is it a certain Immortal Affinity in such a remote courtyard?”

Immortal Affinity is a general term that could refer to heavenly treasures, spiritual treasures, artifacts, or even high-quality Spirit Liquid and Spirit Stones.

It was not impossible for such treasures to be born in such a remote and uninhabited courtyard on Azure Dragon Peak after being nurtured by the fourth-stage Spirit Vein over many years.

Han Yi hesitated a bit. If it had been outside the sect, he would have considered the situation carefully.

But on second thought, there was no doubt that the safety of Azure Dragon Peak would be guaranteed.

After all, Azure Dragon Peak was the first Inner Peak of the Xuandan Sect, with a Golden Core Stage cultivator stationed there and nearly two dozen Foundation Establishnt Elders. What was there to fear? If discovered, the worst-case scenario would be to hand over the Immortal Affinity to the sect, and they would receive so consolation compensation in return, earning so extra profit.

With that in mind, he lightly leaped over the courtyard wall and landed inside..
