Dao Sheng Sect, Milky Way Peak.
Zhang Yuhe awoke from his cultivation.
"Sigh, the cultivation speed after reaching the Nascent Soul stage is getting slower and slower."
At this point, a full year had passed since the opening of Yu Fan Tian.
Zhang Yuhe had also cultivated in the Dao Sheng Sect for over a hundred years.
Two years to reach the Golden Core stage, ten years to reach the Nascent Soul stage, and fifty years to break through to the Deity Transformation stage.
Zhang Yuhe made rapid breakthroughs, as if he were on a rocket.
However, after entering the Nascent Soul stage, the cultivation speed began to slow down.
It took him a full fifty years to cultivate to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, still some distance from perfection.
The Nascent Soul stage is an important phase in a cultivator's transformation, but it is also an extremely difficult hurdle.
Even in the Dao Sheng Sect, out of the three thousand inner disciples, only a little over a hundred are at the Nascent Soul stage, with the rest at the Spirit Transformation stage.
Once an inner disciple breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage and enters the Void Refinement stage, they automatically shed their disciple status and become a sect elder.
Throughout these hundred years, Zhang Yuhe never left Yinhe Peak, but instead stayed in the pavilion to cultivate.
The attention that the other disciples had previously paid to him had long since vanished.
How could anyone possibly pay attention to someone who hasn't appeared in over a century?
If his name weren't listed in the Dao Sheng inner disciple registration information, other disciples might have assumed he was no longer alive.
After all, when Zhang Yuhe first started, he only had the Qi Refining cultivation level.
Without a breakthrough, a hundred years have passed, and it's possible that they'll die of old age.
"It's time to go out for a walk."
Zhang Yuhe stood up and mumbled something.
"I wonder what kind of supernatural power I can exchange for with my current merit points?"
He took out his identity jade token to check; it showed 100 merit points.
The merit points of inner disciples are somewhat special because they do not need to do tasks.
Most inner disciples' merit points come only from years of merit.
When stationed in a garrison, one receives two merit points per year; when not on a garrison duty, one receives only one merit point per year.
For inner disciples to gain more merit, they need to seize opportunities.
For example, suppressing unrest, eliminating demons, or other tasks assigned by the elders.
However, Yu Fantian has been at peace for a long time, and such opportunities are rare. Everyone is scrambling to take them, and if you don't have the strength, you won't even get a turn.
Zhang Yuhe had been in the Dao Sheng Sect for over a hundred years, doing nothing but cultivation, so he only had 100 merit points.
I just don't know what kind of supernatural powers or spells can be exchanged for these 100 merits.
"Let's go check out the library,"
Zhang Yuhe stepped out of the pavilion, his body transforming into a streak of light that flew away from the Milky Way Peak, and soon appeared in front of the library.
The speed of a Nascent Soul cultivator is no joke.
In other words, Yu Fantian covers a vast area, if it were on Blue Star.
At his current speed, he could appear anywhere in a matter of minutes.
"Senior Brother Zhang."
Hearing someone call his name, Zhang Yuhe quickly turned around.
"Junior Brother Cheng, you've also entered the inner sect?"
The person who came was Cheng Xujing, the disciple who had handled his entry procedures.
Seeing him dressed in purple and exuding the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, Zhang Yuhe asked uncertainly.
"Yes."
At this moment, Cheng Xujing could not hide his shock.
When Zhang Yuhe entered the inner sect of Daosheng Sect with the token, he was only at the Qi Refining stage.
However, he could no longer see through Zhang Yuhe's cultivation level.
"Could it be that his cultivation level is now higher than mine?"
"That can't be right."
"It's completely impossible to go from Qi Refining to Nascent Soul in a hundred years. Perhaps it's because he learned some kind of supernatural power that conceals his cultivation level."
Cheng Xujing silently guessed that it was obviously not a good idea to inquire about such matters directly, so he did not ask.
"Senior Brother Zhang, are you here to exchange for cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities?"
Zhang Yuhe nodded in response.
"Yes, I have been cultivating in the sect for many years, but I have not yet learned any supernatural abilities. Soon it will be my turn to take up a position, and I need to learn some supernatural abilities to accompany me."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xujing was speechless.
Damn it, you can't cram at the last minute like this! You only think of learning supernatural powers when you're about to need them. What were you doing all this time?
Is it too late to learn now? Even a simple supernatural power takes years to grasp the basics.
As for those high-level supernatural abilities, the time required to fully comprehend them is even more exaggerated.
Don't even think about it for at least a hundred or two hundred years.
However, in Cheng Xujing's opinion, Zhang Yuhe's current cultivation level is at most the Golden Core Realm, and more likely only the Foundation Establishment Realm.
With such cultivation level, the elders would certainly assign him the task of guarding a peaceful place.
Simply put, he's just going out as an inner disciple of the Dao Sheng Sect to make a name for himself; no one expects him to actually be able to guard the area.
Whether or not one possesses powerful supernatural abilities is not important.
Of course, that's what he thought, but Cheng Xujing said modestly.
"Then you must choose carefully, senior brother. Merit points are hard to come by, and you must be cautious about spending even a little bit of merit points."
Zhang Yuhe nodded in agreement.
The main problem is that there are too few ways to obtain merit points, so there's no way to earn more.
Every little bit spent is a little bit less.
If you choose the wrong supernatural power, you'll have to wait many years to redeem it again.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuhe asked Cheng Xujing.
"Junior Brother Cheng, I would like to learn some supernatural abilities to accompany me. I wonder if you have any suggestions?"
He felt that Cheng Xujing was a very enthusiastic person and might be able to give him some advice.
After thinking for a moment, Cheng Xujing said.
"Supernatural powers are not necessarily better the stronger they are. It depends on the needs and the characteristics of one's own cultivation method. Supernatural powers that match the characteristics of the cultivation method are not only easier to comprehend, but also tend to have stronger actual effects."
