"Senior Brother Ye...actually, if I had used my transcendent skill that day, you wouldn't have been able to trap me..."
"Mmm, that must be really amazing!"
"Now that I have the chance, I'll show you!"
"Um, no thanks. I'll protect you from now on."
......
In fact, Qin Rou's feelings for Ye Feng were not without reason.
In the cultivation world, those who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul and Void Return realms mostly have family backgrounds and are able to advance from truly ordinary mortals. The percentage among them is extremely small.
Qin Rou was just an ordinary assassin in the mortal realm who, by chance, entered the Five Elements Sect's secret realm.
He eventually passed the test and was accepted into the sect.
The story is so intricate that it could be written into a novel of a million words.
After arriving at the sect, although everyone was like family, the perceptive Qin Rou still felt that she was somewhat different from the others...
And Ye Feng is just like her!
He must have started as an ordinary mortal and worked his way up to where he is today.
That's a special feeling; you can recognize it at a glance!
Within the Five Elements Sect, Qin Rou only came into contact with a handful of men.
Senior Brother Zhou Yongcheng was dignified.
Fifth Brother Azure is lively and unrestrained.
Sixth Senior Brother is dull-witted.
Meng Jing is just like a little child.
Now, encountering Ye Feng... although their exchange only lasted a moment,
But it gave her a sense of belonging that came from the depths of her soul.
Ye Feng's invincible figure was deeply imprinted in her mind; this was the first time she had suddenly fallen for a man...
Ye Feng actually shared some of the same sentiments; all mortals possess certain similar traits.
Bamboo sword is like this, Qin Rou is like this, and Ye Feng is of course the same.
Strictly speaking, Ye Feng also comes from a cultivation family.
However, Ye Feng, the transmigrator, is different; he's a corporate slave! Just like Qin Rou in the mortal realm, he's not in control of his own destiny...
————
The Five Elements Immortal City spans tens of thousands of miles; in my previous life, that would have been roughly the size of the entire planet Earth.
Within the celestial city, countless mortals, generation after generation, have no idea what the outside world is like.
In their eyes, this fairy city is the whole world.
Within the Immortal City, there are cultivators as well, and even sects that rival the Heavenly Southern Sect.
However, the current state of the Five Elements Sect determines their fate; once they leave above the Nascent Soul stage, they can never return.
But once they leave the Five Elements Sect, where else can they find a ninth-level branch for their cultivation...?
Generation after generation of cultivators either grew old and died in the Five Elements Sect, or left the Five Elements Immortal City and were never heard from again.
Deathly silence enveloped this celestial city.
However, this deathly silence was broken the night before last!
The Immortal Sect issued an order for all cultivators to mobilize and search for those with spiritual roots who were unable to absorb spiritual energy for cultivation... even those who had been unconscious for a long time.
For each person found, you will be rewarded with a top-grade magical artifact!
For three people, the reward is a low-grade Xuan treasure; for nine people... there is no upper limit!
Sensational, shocking
As the ruler of this immortal city, every move of the Five Elements Sect affects the hearts of everyone.
Especially when a formal disciple dies, the entire city observes a moment of silence.
For over a thousand years, the Five Elements Sect has issued almost no announcements other than those of mourning.
Everyone hopes that this once behemoth can rise again.
However, the news that followed was always one of mourning after another.
Even if they occasionally manage to recruit one or two new disciples, they always receive more news of deaths soon afterward.
However, this time is different.
Four new official disciples were recruited at once!
Not only that, the sect also issued a notice that was not about personnel changes!
I'm not afraid of sects making a mess of things; I'm afraid they've already given up on making a mess of things.
That's probably what everyone thinks.
So when Zhou Yongcheng issued the order, everyone began to take action.
The entire immortal city was bustling with activity...
When Ye Feng and Qin Rou walked out of the back mountain together, they saw a square packed with people.
Tens of thousands of mortals, who were in a coma, were brought to the front by cultivators one by one, where formal disciples examined their spiritual roots.
Because balanced spiritual roots lack cultivation, they cannot be detected through normal means.
Only the secret methods of the Five Elements Sect can be used to sense it.
Zhou Yongcheng glanced at their clasped hands and then smiled and said,
Thirteen!
Thirteen... Ye Feng certainly knew what it meant. Liang Yuxian and the other two were in the sect master's hall, along with their second senior sister Yang Lingzhi and third senior sister Murong Zhao, waking people up and feeding them elixirs and spiritual food.
Ye Feng was astonished to find so many in the Immortal City in less than two days.
Keep in mind that he hadn't even found ten people in ten years in Tiannan, but Zhou Yongcheng found thirteen in just two days. Judging from the number of people outside... the final number could very well be ten times that!
It'll be so lively next time you come!
"Senior Brother, it's almost time, I should go!"
After Ye Feng finished speaking, he turned directly to Qin Rou.
"Junior Sister Qin, I'm leaving now. I'll be back in three months at most."
In that short time, the two of them obviously didn't do anything.
Besides, we've only known each other for a short time, so that wouldn't be appropriate.
However, we couldn't help but kiss, that's undeniable. Next time we come, we'll need to get to know each other better before deciding on the next step.
Qin Rou's cheeks flushed slightly, but her gaze remained fixed on Ye Feng without wavering, and she nodded.
Zhou Yongcheng looked at Ye Feng and said hesitantly,
Do you need us to take you there?
"Haha...Senior Brother, you should take care of things here first!"
The Five Elements Sect is on the verge of a new beginning. If something unexpected happens to them while they're out together, they'll be considered criminals.
Moreover,
"Don't worry, I'm...incredibly strong right now!"
As Ye Feng spoke, he slightly unleashed his aura.
The fellow disciples in the plaza, along with the cultivators from the sects in the immortal city, all showed expressions of shock.
"This... is the newly initiated Seventh Master! He's actually a Returning Void Profound Venerable, and he possesses such a powerful aura!"
"So strong even as a beginner, how is that possible... It must be a hidden power from the start!"
"So the main sect was hiding its strength. The Five Elements Sect has hope now!"
...
Compared to the astonishment of the cultivators in the immortal city, my brothers and sisters were even more surprised.
In just two short days, Ye Feng's aura has become several times stronger!
The matter of Ye Feng balancing his spiritual roots has already been told to everyone.
By balancing one's spiritual roots, one can learn to cast the Spirit Burning Technique.
But whether or not one's spiritual root has been burned is still obvious to everyone.
If Wei Lan were to fight Ye Feng now, the scene would likely be completely different...
Ye Feng rose into the air, offering a sword salute.
"Farewell, fellow senior brothers and sisters!"
Apart from Zhou Yongcheng and Qin Rou, the others were still unaware of what was going on.
They're leaving after only a few days?
Judging from your tone, it seems like you've been planning to leave for a long time?
Of the group, perhaps only Zhou Yongcheng truly understood Ye Feng's feelings.
Whether they can return from dealing with a beast at the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm depends on fate.
if....
"Seventh Junior Brother! Wait..."
Ye Feng turned around in mid-air, looking at Zhou Yongcheng with a puzzled expression. At that moment, Zhou Yongcheng was frantically "recharging" his account.
If my senior brother asks me for spirit stones... I can say I spent them once I leave the sect, but we haven't even left yet. If he asks me for them, then it's really hard to say.
"Here, take this!"
It's fine as long as it doesn't require spirit stones!
Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief, took the ring, and examined it with his mind.
Inside the enormous ring lay three "spirit stones," each the size of a baby's fist, shimmering with multicolored light.
"Immortal Stones! Exchange Price: Two Trillion Trading Points!"
"Holy crap! Senior Brother, I absolutely adore you!"
