Chapter 213: Fa Spreads Across the Immortal Sect
Cloud-Resting Residence, Sanyue Cave Residence.
Morning sunlight spilled across the floor. The tea room was silent, the only sound the rising murmur of water from the jade kettle.
When the spiritual water boiled, a male cultivator with deep, refined features and an aura of nobility lifted the jade pot. Silver-thread streams of water washed over the dark-brown tea leaves.
In an instant, tea mist swirled and spread.
“Did you see the new talent ranking this ti?” Gu Xiao smiled faintly.
The refined cultivator sitting opposite furrowed his brows slightly, taking out his phone and tapping it open.
“So it is. Twenty years old, flawless Foundation Establishnt—Yuqing Immortal Sect has gained yet another youthful prodigy.” Shen Yuanbao’s tone carried the weight of a superior as he comnted on Chen Beiwu.
At his words, the two other young cultivators looked visibly startled and quickly opened the Yuqing Immortal Sect’s official site.
“Third on the new talent ranking? How can a cultivator with only a contract to a Golden Scale have the qualifications to replace Senior Brother Shen on the list!” the black-robed cultivator protested indignantly.
“That’s right. Senior Brother Shen also has flawless Foundation Establishnt, but his Companion Beast is a third-tier high-grade Treasure Beast—the Thunder-Moon Ferocious Beast! How could it compare to so lowly Golden Scale?”
A palace-robed female cultivator, her hair flowing like a waterfall and her features exquisite, spoke in agreent, her gaze toward Shen Yuanbao full of admiration.
“An ordinary Golden Scale could never have allowed Chen Beiwu to achieve flawless Foundation Establishnt, let alone claim third place on the new talent ranking.” Shen Yuanbao shook his head slightly.
He understood the admiration the siblings Ding Xu and Ding Xue held for him, but Chen Beiwu was a peerless genius of dual supre aptitude, one who had once lost only to the Holy Maiden of Supre Yin, Gu Qinghan.
For such a genius, even if he contracted only a green caterpillar, he could not be dismissed so casually.
“Drink tea.” Gu Xiao raised his right hand slightly, making a polite gesture of invitation.
He cared little for empty fa.
The only reason he had stoked Shen Yuanbao’s ire was to make him take action, so he could personally witness the strength of this so-called poor-born genius.
If Chen Beiwu’s strength truly proved formidable, he would not hesitate to challenge him himself as the second-ranked of the new talent list.
Shen Yuanbao lifted his cup and took a gentle sip.
Then he turned his gaze to Ding Xu and spoke lightly: “Go, deliver a challenge to Chen Beiwu for .”
He was well aware of Gu Xiao’s attempt to provoke him, but so what?
If he could not even face a newly-erged genius of the Immortal Alliance, how could he hope to one day break through the threshold and beco a cultivator who stood above countless prodigies?
“Understood.” Ding Xu rose and left the tea room.
……
As news of Chen Beiwu’s flawless Foundation Establishnt spread, more and more disciples of the sect learned that Yuqing Immortal Sect had gained another youthful genius.
So cultivators were moved to admiration, seeing Chen Beiwu as a target to chase. So pursued profit, regarding him as a rising star. So beca interested, viewing him as a rare rival.
In short, True Monarch Jiang Chuan had achieved his aim, successfully fanning the flas and stirring restlessness among the disciples of Yuqing Immortal Sect.
……
Cloud-Resting Residence, Yiyue Cave Residence. This was a fourth-tier cave dwelling, where only Golden Core True Persons—elite disciples of Yuqing Immortal Sect—were qualified to reside.
Yu Zhaohua glanced at the discussions about Chen Beiwu on the Yuqing Immortal Sect’s website, then casually tossed her phone aside.
“Boring. No matter how strong flawless Foundation Establishnt may be, it still cannot compare to an Innate Dao Body.”
She muttered softly, her graceful figure sprawled lazily across the soft bed as she pulled out the Yuqing Nine Revolutions Yuanshi Pill Manual to study.
Beside her, to her right, lay a massive beast—dragon yet not dragon, head hornless, body over thirty feet long. Its jaws hung slightly open.
From the corners of its mouth dripped searing magma, scorching a deep pit into the floor. Clearly, it was famished.
“Almost forgot to feed you.”
With a flicker of light from her storage ring, Yu Zhaohua took out a third-tier low-grade Treasure Pill and fed it to her Companion Beast.
The reason Yu Zhaohua had been able to firmly hold the top position of the new talent list from the mont she entered Yuqing Immortal Sect was not only because of her Innate Dao Body, but also her fourth-tier high-grade Mystic Beast—the Flint-Rock Coiled Dragon.
The Coiled Dragon was not truly a dragon, but a fire-elent aberration born from the fusion of Earthfire essence and the ancient Dragon Vein’s qi. Within its body dwelled an explosive, unmatched power, like a volcano in eruption, making it unrivaled among fourth-tier Mystic Beasts.
Yet, the Flint-Rock Coiled Dragon grew exceedingly slowly. It required five thousand years to molt its magma-like scales, stir the earth veins, and rouse ten thousand miles of volcanoes into silence before it could mature and ascend as a fourth-realm Beast King.
If it wished to evolve further, to transform its bloodline into that of a true dragon, it would need at least tens of thousands of years.
But Yu Zhaohua’s Innate Dao Body could greatly shorten the beast’s growth.
For this reason, the Flint-Rock Coiled Dragon had chosen to beco her Companion Beast.
Patting its scales gently, Yu Zhaohua turned back to the Yuqing Nine Revolutions Yuanshi Pill Manual, a troubled look in her eyes.
With her Dao Body and the aid of a fourth-tier Mystic Beast, she had already reached the peak of Foundation Establishnt a year ago.
But in order to forge a First-Grade Golden Core—or even beyond that, a Golden Core worthy of a title—she now devoted nearly all her cultivation to tempering her mana with Earthly Sha Qi, consolidating her foundation, and studying Golden Core secret arts.
Compared to the Great Dao of Golden Core, a flawless Foundation Establishnt cultivator was rare, but hardly enough to pique her interest.
Unless Chen Beiwu could defeat Gu Xiao and stand before her.
……
“Third place on the new talent ranking?”
With Senior Sister Feng Ya’s reminder, Chen Beiwu opened the Yuqing Immortal Sect’s website.
As expected, the majority of discussions revolved around him.
The reason was simple—Chen Beiwu was far too mysterious. Since entering Yuqing Immortal Sect, he had not attended a single class. Few fellow disciples even knew his appearance or habits.
Of course, geniuses from clans of Dao Venerables or noble houses of True Sovereigns could easily uncover detailed information about him.
But even with his contact details in hand, they would not directly ssage him by phone, lest they reveal their investigations. Instead, they asked Feng Ya, who had interacted with him, to make introductions.
“Junior Brother, do you want a Dao Companion?”
“As long as you nod, I can send one to you today.”
Reading Senior Sister Feng Ya’s ssage, Chen Beiwu could only sigh helplessly: “Senior Sister, don’t joke with .”
“I’m not joking. Junior Brother, you’re a hot commodity now. Even a few noble-born young ladies from immortal clans are asking
for your contact.”
“As long as you agree, plenty of female cultivators would gladly beco your Dao Companion.”
Sensing the teasing in Feng Ya’s words, Chen Beiwu replied: “Please help
decline them, Senior Sister.”
Those noble-born female cultivators were far too troubleso; he had no desire to entangle himself.
Better to spend that ti studying the All Laws Converge, Heaven Book of the Divine Tree · Foundation Chapter.
Setting down his phone, Chen Beiwu pressed a jade slip of the Heaven Book’s cultivation thod against his forehead.
“Primordial chaos first divided, clarity and turbidity split. Heaven birthed Gui Water, Earth birthed Yi Wood.
Water is the true essence of Supre Yin, mother of all things, hidden within the Northern Darkness of ten thousand rivers.
Wood is the first qi of Lesser Yang, the chanism of life, arising from the Eastern Azure Palace.
If water does not dry, wood gains eternal life. If wood does not wither, water returns to its source. This is the pivot of Heaven’s cycle, the root of dual cultivation of life and essence…”
Under the illumination of the Guarding-the-One Mirror, Chen Beiwu successfully initiated the Foundation Chapter of the Heaven Book, easily condensing a whirlpool of Green Wood spiritual qi within his dantian sea of qi.
anwhile, Gold Egg just stood there, dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.
