Chapter 248



Yang Yitian remembered that Qi Zhiheng had said before that the peak master of Panyun Peak was the most protective of his own, and Qi Zhiheng also wanted to enter Panyun Peak, so he immediately chose Panyun Peak.

The twins naturally wanted to follow their sister-in-law and also chose to climb Yunfeng Peak.

Zuo Qiuman, the peak master of Panyun Peak, is a cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Although Yang Yitian's aptitude will decrease somewhat due to pregnancy, it will not be worse than that of a cultivator with dual spiritual roots. Moreover, besides Yang Yitian, there are two other cultivators with single spiritual roots.

The other peak masters were so jealous they gritted their teeth. They didn't know what kind of luck Zuoqiu Man had. There were nine single spiritual roots among the nine peaks. It should have been one per peak, but he had taken up three spots!

The remaining three individuals with single spiritual roots did not choose a peak and were actively recruited by some peak masters.

The next step is choosing a peak with dual spiritual roots. Choosing a peak with dual spiritual roots carries certain risks. If the peak master doesn't like you, you might be accepted by his disciple, or become a nominal disciple or an ordinary disciple. Who wouldn't want to be accepted as a personal disciple? If you rashly choose a peak, you might not get the result you want.

The best approach is to wait for the peak masters to choose themselves, and then select those who are interested in them.

Among the qualified disciples selected from the outer sect, there were nearly fifty inner sect disciples. Of such a large number of disciples, it was impossible for them all to be selected. Some disciples who were not selected continued to stay in the inner sect's exclusive area, waiting for the next opportunity.

It is very difficult for outer disciples to be selected. Almost no one from the sect will choose an outer disciple. However, some disciples will select some of them to serve as menial tasks until they can become inner disciples.

After everyone had chosen their disciples, the sect leader dismissed most of them, leaving only the disciples who had been selected for their respective peaks. He then led these new disciples into the main hall, allowing them to get to know each other better.

As a cultivator with the Thunder Spirit Root, the Peak Master of Cang Lei Peak had carved out his own mountain. He was puzzled that Yang Yitian, Qi Zhirui, and Qi Zhiwu had all chosen Pan Yun Peak, and asked, "Qi Zhiwu, why did you choose Pan Yun Peak? Look at me, I'm the same as you, with the Thunder Spirit Root, so you should have chosen my peak too."

Qi Zhiwu was caught off guard by the question and glanced at Yang Yitian.

Yang Yitian: "..." Staring at him like that, isn't that implying that I influenced his choice? This silly kid!

Yang Yitian blinked.

The peak master of Canglei Peak, who could see their actions, asked in confusion, "Why are you looking at him? I'm asking you a question, not him."

“Hey, Lei Zetian, don’t try to seduce my peak’s disciples. This one is already a disciple of our Panyun Peak,” Zuoqiu Man said.

Lei Zetian said unconcernedly, "How can this be considered kidnapping? I'm guiding him onto the right path. You guys are all sorts of people who are worried about transportation costs, but our Cang Lei Peak has a simple population, which is perfect for cultivation."

"That's just sophistry," Zuoqiu Man scoffed.

“Kid, tell me, why did you choose Panyun Peak? Tell me the truth.” Lei Zetian ignored Zuoqiu Man and turned to ask Qi Zhiwu.

Zuoqiu Man did not refute anything further.

Qi Zhiwu honestly replied, "Because, because my elder brother said that Panyun Peak protects its own, and the peak master also protects his own. Protecting one's own is good; protecting one's own means not being afraid of being bullied by others."

Lei Zetian clearly couldn't accept this reason, but Zuoqiu Man laughed heartily: "Not bad, not bad, your older brother has good taste."

Lei Zetian continued, "Then why were you looking at Yang Yitian just now? Did he force you to say that?"

Qi Zhiwu shook his head and said, "No, it's because he's my sister-in-law. I'm just seeing if she has anything to say. It wasn't him who asked me to say it."

This answer surprised everyone.

"Then who is your older brother?" Lei Zetian asked.

“My older brother is outside,” Qi Zhiwu replied.

"Then why didn't your elder brother join the God-Slaying Sect?" The sect leader was also somewhat curious. Having reached his level of cultivation, he wasn't one to be easily curious. The problem was that there were three people with single spiritual roots in front of him. To be honest, even he was a little envious of Zuoqiu Man's incredible luck.

"My older brother is too old to get in!" Qi Zhiwu said with some distress. If it were the twenty-year-old rule, his older brother would definitely be able to get in. His older brother is much more reliable than his sister-in-law.

The peak masters all thought it was normal; it was also normal for someone of advanced age to be unable to enter the Slaughter God Sect, since not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry could enter their Slaughter God Sect.

At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to Yang Yitian. It was such a pity that such a promising talent was married off to a mediocre cultivator!

"Actually, as inner disciples, you can bring servants in. If your elder brother doesn't mind, you can bring them in as servants. Although the title of servant doesn't sound good, if you don't treat them as real servants, then it doesn't matter." The sect leader thought the child was quite cute, so he gave him a few words of advice.

"No need, Big Brother will definitely get in based on his own abilities. Aren't we going to be recruiting again in a few days? Big Brother will definitely be able to get in," Qi Zhiwu replied.

Sect Master Que Hanhai raised an eyebrow: "You seem to have a lot of confidence in your elder brother. In a few days, he won't be recruiting disciples, but rather guest elders of the sect. Guest elders can only be selected when one reaches the Golden Core stage."

Qi Zhiwu nodded his little head and said, "I know, my elder brother is also at the Golden Core stage, and he can even bring servants."

"You seem to know quite a lot. It looks like your older brother has put a lot of effort into selecting a sect." No sect leader dislikes their sect being valued. He secretly decided that even if this child's older brother was really too old, he could still make an exception and be selected.

Others also envisioned an image of someone who was several hundred years old and at the Golden Core stage.

If this person could reach the Golden Core stage before the age of one hundred, how could they not have a sect? Therefore, this person must be over one hundred years old, but one hundred years old is a rather euphemistic guess.

Everyone looked at Yang Yitian, and immediately began to imagine a melodramatic story of a golden core ancestor who was hundreds of years old forcibly taking the young and handsome Yang Yitian and forcing him to take a fertility pill so that he would get pregnant!

Yang Yitian was suddenly bewildered by the pitying gazes he was receiving.

Sect Master Que Hanhai said, "Disciples on your own peaks can get to know each other. Since you will all be from the same sect in the future, you should get along well and avoid any major conflicts."

"Yes!" everyone answered in unison, but only they knew what they were really thinking.

Yang Yitian took the twins to meet the people at Panyun Peak. After introductions and getting to know each other, they dispersed. As darkness fell, the matter of changing houses would have to be postponed until tomorrow.

As members of Panyun Peak, they naturally had to move their residences to Panyun Peak.

After returning to their communal residence, everyone rested for one night. The next day, someone came to lead the disciples from each peak to collect their own houses.

Yang Yitian, along with the twins and several unfamiliar disciples, were led by a Foundation Establishment disciple to Panyun Peak.

Many caves and houses have been developed on Panyun Peak. You can choose any place you want, as long as it's not on someone else's designated territory.

Thinking about the future, Yang Yitian finally chose to look at a large mansion and moved in with the twins. He asked around among the senior brothers who were leading them if the three of them could live together, but the spiritual fields would be placed together.

This matter required the Peak Master's approval. The disciple relayed a message to the Peak Master's steward, requesting his assistance. After consulting the Peak Master, the matter was approved. However, the extra spirit fields would have to be cultivated by the villagers themselves. There was no precedent for this; the spirit fields had never been cultivated together before.

Yang Yitian didn't care. He figured the task of cultivating the spirit fields could be completed eventually. He could just hire some outer disciples to help.

After Yang Yitian and the others had almost finished moving and planted some vegetables in the spirit field, the day for the Slaughtering God Sect to select guest elders arrived.

There are requirements for becoming a guest elder. Those over 500 years old in the Golden Core stage or 1500 years old in the Nascent Soul stage are not accepted. Furthermore, a competition must be held; those with poor combat abilities will not be allowed entry into the sect. Of course, exceptions are made for cultivators with high attainments in other areas, such as alchemy or weapon crafting…

These cultivators are generally recruited into sects.

Qi Zhiheng was too lazy to fight anyone, so he chose to become an alchemist instead.

The rest of the people were engaged in weapon crafting, formation setup, and those who lacked the skills had no choice but to engage in combat. Success was still quite gratifying.

Upon seeing the number of applicants, the Golden Core cultivator who was assisting the Nascent Soul cultivators in the assessment at the Slaughter God Sect said to his companion, "There are quite a few people participating in the sect's selection of guest elders this year; it seems to be twice as many as in previous years."

“Indeed.” Another Golden Core cultivator echoed him, opening a list and jokingly saying, “There’s a whole bunch of people with the surname Qi here. Could they all be from the same family?”

A person nearby leaned over to take a look and said, "You know what, it really does seem like that. Look, these names are all arranged according to seniority. Maybe it really is a big family."

"That's strange, I've never encountered such a situation before."

"It's nothing. Even if you can register together, you might not be able to get in together. This has happened often in the past."

The two only exchanged a few words on the other side and didn't take it to heart.

Qi Zhiheng's family, however, each used their own methods to squeeze into the crowd.

There was a test of spiritual roots in the middle of the process. Since Qi Zhiheng was able to control the gray mist, he had become more adept at controlling spiritual energy, and he was even able to completely hide the spiritual roots that he did not want to expose.

For someone as young as him to reach the Golden Core stage, having too many spiritual roots would inevitably attract attention. So he simply pretended to have dual spiritual roots, which could be considered genius, and it wouldn't be too abrupt for him to become a Golden Core cultivator.

Apart from Ye Xin, the rest of the family entered the Slaughtering God Sect as guest elders. Ye Xin could only serve under Yang Yao as a servant.
