Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Yuan followed the examiner to the main peak through the teleportation array, they walked for about ten minutes before arriving at the Gu Immortal Sect’s main hall, where they usually dealt with important matters.
The examiner stopped here.
“The sect master is waiting for you in the back hall. Don’t worry, compared to the elders, he is still easy to interact with.”
“Really?”
Fang Yuan did not believe it. As the sect master of Gu Immortal Sect, he was definitely a peerless expert with outstanding talent. Not to ntion being cold and aloof like Senior Wan Qian, he should at least have so dignity.
The examiner patted his shoulder: “Don’t worry, the sect master’s bad temper is only for outsiders.”
Fang Yuan understood: “Thank you for your advice, Martial Uncle.”
“Haha, maybe next ti we et, you’ll call Senior instead of Martial Uncle.”
The examiner laughed. His martial nephew Fang Yuan was not old and had been ordinary for many years. He did not expect him to advance so quickly after accumulating so much experience. In the blink of an eye, he was already at the Enlightennt Realm. He felt a little emotional in his heart, and he lowered his voice and said, “Just go there directly. I still have sothing to do, so I’ll leave first. Rember not to hunch over when you et the sect master. He hates soft bones the most.”
“Take care, Martial Uncle.”
Fang Yuan nodded while saying goodbye to the other party.
In fact, he did not really care about this eting.
Whether it was the First Elder or the sect master, in reality, they were not of much help in terms of cultivation. At most, they would provide so resources within the scope of their authority.
He was now a guardian of the Xu family. He could get more than 100,000 prival stones worth of materials a year. The small amount of money that the sect’s monthly salary gave him was already sothing that he did not think much of, unless the sect master opened a backdoor for him and provided him with unlimited cultivation resources.
However, this was impossible. The sect belonged to everyone, and the resources that everyone could get were all based on the sect’s status. Any more would not do, and it was very strict.
Fang Yuan looked down on these material resources, but he was very concerned about his reputation and status.
This was the guarantee for him to explore the secular world in the future.
If he could be called Gu Zhenren’s personal disciple, anyone would give him so face.
His family would also be much safer in transporting goods.
Thinking of this, he rembered that he had promised to give Shi Hao and the others so talismans that could conceal their aura. He had been busy since he returned to the sect and had forgotten about this matter.
It seed that he still had to find ti to deal with it.
Then, Fang Yuan went through the main hall as the examiner had said. He ca to the garden outside the back hall and found the right direction. Finally, he stood in front of a house with an open door.
Gu Zhenren was writing inside.
“Disciple Fang Yuan greets the sect master.”
“Co in.”
Gu Zhenren’s voice was deep and low. It was obvious that he was extraordinary.
It was unknown if he had reached the Synthesis Realm.
Fang Yuan walked into the house.
Gu Zhenren turned around.?He looked like a middle-aged man and had a smile on his face.?He pointed at the chair beside him.
“Sit, don’t be shy. You might co here often in the future, just treat it as your own ho.”
Fang Yuan did not stand on ceremony, he even ate the fruits on the table after sitting down.
With a light bite, the juice splashed everywhere, It was sweet and cool.
Not long after, a burning sensation rose in his acupoints, directly stripping away half of Fang Yuan’s gaseous spiritual essence and swimming towards his entire body.
The next mont, his ridians were burning like they were on fire, unable to endure the heat.
“This is a fire congealing fruit. After consuming it, the spiritual essence will be burned to temper your ridians.”
Gu Zhenren explained at the right ti. “In the future, when you absorb the World Spirit Essence, it will be much faster than it was before, but if you eat too much of this fruit, it will start to lose its effect, just like with dicine.”
Fang Yuan sensed carefully and found that the speed at which he absorbed the spiritual essence was indeed much faster.
“Thank you for the reward, Sect Master.”
Gu Zhenren looked at him with a faint smile, “I didn’t call you here to ask you to thank .”
Fang Yuan knew that Gu Zhenren wanted him to take the initiative to acknowledge him as his master.
He was silent for a while and slowly shook his head.
“I may have to disappoint you, Sect Master.”
The smile on Gu Zhenren’s face froze, revealing so dignity, “Why, will being my personal disciple wrong you?”
“Sect Master, you are the leader of the sect, naturally I will not be wronged.”
Fang Yuan explained, “But this matter ca so suddenly, and I was not prepared at all. I wanted to think about it carefully before saying anything.”
Gu Zhenren slowly nodded, agreeing with this statent.
The path of Gu refinent indeed needed to be considered carefully. After becoming a master, one would have to cultivate with the cultivation thod of their master’s lineage. If there was a conflict with the cultivation thod they cultivated previously, it would be troubleso.
Gu Zhenren waved his hand and did not make things difficult for Fang Yuan, saying, “Since that is the case, let’s wait for the Dao seeking trial three days later. If you agree, you can participate directly, I will keep an eye on you then.”
“Thank you for your understanding, Sect Master.” Fang Yuan raised his hand and bowed.
Gu Zhenren snorted, “At that ti, if your performance is not outstanding enough, I might not take you in.”
“It will be nice to get it, but I can’t help it if I lose it. If I miss out on Sect Master’s offer because of this, I can only say that I have no fate with you.”
“You are quite open-minded.”
Gu Zhenren was very appreciative of Fang Yuan’s open-minded thinking, since there were very few young people like him in the sect. He waved his hand, “Alright, you can leave now, I’m getting annoyed just looking at you.”
“I’ll take my leave now.”
“Wait a minute.”?Gu Zhenren stopped him again and glanced at the fire congealing fruit on the table. “Take this away.”
“This... isn’t good, right?”
This kind of thing that could speed up the absorption of spiritual essence seed to be very valuable. It was embarrassing to give it to him like this.
“It was prepared for you. Consider it a reward for treating Wan Qian’s cold poison.”
Fang Yuan was shocked. “How did Sect Master know...”
“Don’t worry, no one is peeping.”
Gu Zhenren walked to the table and continued writing. At the sa ti, he said, “Wan Qian was able to walk around the sect today. Soone reported the news. This is all thanks to you.”
Fang Yuan understood and accepted the fire congealing fruit without any psychological burden.
“You may leave.”
“Disciple will take his leave.”
Fang Yuan did not stay any longer. He still had to make a trip to the scripture depository to search for books related to the power of Yin and Yang.
Gu Zhenren looked at Fang Yuan’s disappearing figure at the door and could not help but shake his head.
He had spent eight thousand prival stones to obtain the fire congealing fruit, but he had not even bought a disciple.
If First Elder and Second Elder heard this, they would laugh at him.
