Shi Xuan stepped out of the transmission array of the Tide Lane and sighed inwardly. This time's experience was finally over. After returning to Extreme Night City, Shi Xuan bid farewell to Xie Fangwei and prepared to return to the sect for a period of closed-door training to stabilize the first tier of the Spirit Soul Stage.
Looking at the bright and clear blue sky outside the Tide Lane, Shi Shuan immediately felt relaxed. The fights of magical powers in the recent period had made him very tired, especially that life and death experience. Now that he had returned to the familiar and safe waters of the Three Islands, he could finally let go of this fatigue.
Riding on the conveyance light and soaring into the sky, Shi Xuan soon arrived at the Guest Island outside Penglai Island.
Except for the leading cultivator, the disciples on guard were all unfamiliar. It seemed that they had just entered the sect during the recent disciple recruitment ceremony. Shi Xuan took out the Good Deed Jade Pendant and handed it to them for inspection. Although the leading disciple recognized Shi Xuan, he still followed the rules and verified it before returning it to Shi Xuan. At the same time, he said with great respect and admiration, "Martial Uncle Shi, you're back?" Shi Xuan was an influential figure in the sect for the past twenty years. He had broken through to the Qi Drawing Stage in just five years. Everyone couldn't help but admire him.
Shi Xuan thought, "What kind of problem is this? If I didn't come back, then who is standing here?" But he could understand the excitement of these martial nephews, so he nodded and said, "I still have to pay my respects to the Master, so I won't disturb you." Then he crossed the Rainbow Bridge and went to Penglai Island.
After that, a male disciple asked doubtfully, "Senior Brother Zhang, did you notice that Martial Uncle Shi didn't have the pressure of Spiritual Qi on him?" He asked the leading Senior Brother Zhang.
Senior Brother Zhang frowned and thought for a while, "I didn't feel it. Could it be that Martial Uncle Shi hid his breath?" He didn't dare to think of other possibilities.
Another beautiful female disciple said hesitantly, "But Martial Uncle Shi flew back with a conveyance light, and it looked powerful. It didn't seem like he hid his breath. Could it be that Martial Uncle Shi has entered the Spirit Realm?"
The few of them fell silent, but their hearts were in turmoil. If the Qi Drawing Stage was considered to have officially stepped onto the threshold of Immortal Cultivation, then the Divine Soul Stage was considered to be a true expert.
After a long time, Senior Brother Zhang sighed, "It seems that Martial Uncle Shi has really entered the Spirit Realm. Haha, in less than twenty years, he has entered the Spirit Realm from the Qi Drawing Stage. I'm afraid that only the ancestors in the Sect's history could have such speed. In this generation of true disciples, even Martial Uncle Xie spent 23 years to reach Divine Soul. " A bitter smile appeared on his face. The other party had only been in the sect for twenty-five years and was already a Divine Soul expert. On the other hand, he was still lingering around the Leaving Aperture realm.
The first disciple was shocked and fascinated, "Even if I have to spend twice as much time as Martial Uncle Shi, as long as I can enter the Spirit Realm, I will accept it."
The beautiful female disciple nodded in agreement. Her eyes were full of worship, envy, pride, and motivation. Then she said, "I'm afraid this is the most sensational news in the Sect recently. Maybe in the next twenty or thirty years, there won't be anything more sensational than this."
Senior Brother Zhang sighed, "Yes, I'm afraid that in a few days, the ceremony for Martial Uncle Shi to become a true disciple will be held."
In fact, true disciples were not all the same generation. Sometimes, there were martial uncles and martial nephews. In Penglai, as long as one reached the Spirit Realm within a hundred years of cultivation, he could become a true disciple. If he couldn't reach the Gold Core Realm after a hundred years, he would automatically become an elder from a true disciple.
But the previous generation of true disciples sometimes didn't wait for a hundred years to become an elder. This was because the next generation of disciples entered the Spirit Realm one after another and became a true disciple, which put a lot of pressure on them. Therefore, as long as there were more true disciples in the next generation, the previous generation of true disciples would basically apply to become an elder. In any case, they had already enjoyed the greatest benefits of being a true disciple. As an elder, there would be a lot less chores.
Therefore, when Shi Xuan entered the Sect, the nine true disciples were all in the first generation.

Phecda Peak, Mo Yuan's cave mansion.
For cultivators, more than ten years passed very quickly. Mo Yuan looked no different from when Shi Xuan saw him ten years ago in the Southern Barbarian Continent. He was still a handsome young man with an expressionless face. He didn't seem to have aged at all.
After Shi Xuan paid his respects, Mo Yuan nodded slightly, "Not bad." For the progress of his disciple's cultivation, Mo Yuan could praise Shi Xuan with "not bad", which meant that Shi Xuan had done a good job.
Shi Xuan didn't bother to be polite with his master. After paying his respects, he went straight to the point and asked for advice on the cultivation problems he had accumulated in the past few years. Mo Yuan was very appreciative of Shi Xuan's performance, and his answers were also very detailed.
Finally, Shi Xuan talked about what happened in the Central Plains and reported to his master about Chu Wan 'er. Then he asked about Lady Yu in the Hui Long Temple, "I wonder if that Lady Yu is the one disciple is thinking of?"
Mo Yuan didn't comment on Chu Wan 'er's matter because he didn't see it with his own eyes. As for Lady Yu, he said lightly, "It's her. Anyway, the people of our Penglai Sect are also her descendants, so it's not too much to say so."
Because he knew that his master would think this way, Shi Xuan dared to ask. After confirming Lady Yu's identity, he also let go of his worries about Chu Wan 'er. For her, this was a great lucky chance.
Seeing that Shi Xuan was about to leave, Mo Yuan said as if he had just thought of something, "Since you have already advanced to the Divine Soul Realm, in three days prepare to participate in the ceremony to become a true disciple. After that, you can choose one of the three true inheritances to cultivate, or you can continue to cultivate the 'Heavenly Wind Six Directions of Heaven and Earth', which is also a Taoist technique that can directly lead to the Primordial Spirit. However, the path after the Primordial Spirit can only be explored by yourself. "In other words, it was better to obediently choose one of the three true inheritances.
Shi Xuan had already made up his mind to choose the 'Shenxiao True Method' to conceal the Shenxiao Heavenly Thunder True Energy that he cultivated in the 'Treasure Record'. However, he still asked curiously, "Master, what are the three great inheritances of our sect? This disciple only knows the 'Shenxiao True Method'. "
Mo Yuan expressionlessly said, "Besides the 'Shenxiao True Method', the other one is the 'Secret Immortal Beheading Sword Box' and the 'Star River True Method'. Among them, the 'Star River True Method' is a combination of star and water techniques. It has very high requirements for one's own physique, so there are very few disciples who choose it. It is also not very suitable for you. Your 'Heavenly Wind Six Directions of Heaven and Earth' can be converted into true energy to cultivate the 'Shenxiao True Method' and the 'Secret Immortal Beheading Sword Box'. You are quite talented in understanding the transformation of yin and yang, and your swordsmanship is also extraordinary, so you can choose for yourself. "
To be honest, Shi Xuan was a bit tempted by the 'Secret Immortal Beheading Sword Box' because he had successfully cultivated the 'Sword Qi Thunderous Sound'. However, considering that he mainly cultivated the 'Treasure Record', he gave up on this greedy thought and answered honestly, "This disciple chooses the 'Shenxiao True Method'."
Mo Yuan nodded lightly, "The 'Shenxiao True Method' can condense the three great Dao seeds of thunder, lightning, and yin and yang. Unfortunately, the Dao seed of thunder has already been used to merge with the Dao, and there are still some shortcomings in the lightning and yin and yang techniques, so the later generations need to slowly make up for it. Have you made up your mind? "
Shi Xuan's mind raced. He did not know how many Dao seeds he could condense by cultivating the 'Treasure Record', but at least those related to yin and yang should be included, such as thunder, lightning, yin and yang, tai chi, two rites, black hole, virtue, and so on. Therefore, he said without hesitation, "This disciple has made up his mind."
"In that case, I have nothing else to tell you. After becoming a true disciple, remember to choose two Taoist techniques from the 'Ends of the Earth Tower'. This is the right of a true disciple." Mo Yuan finally mentioned the benefits of a true disciple.
Shi Xuan hurriedly said, "Master, which Taoist techniques can be cultivated in the Spirit Realm? Which two should I choose? "
Mo Yuan continued to say expressionlessly, "There are four in total. One is' Thunder God Thorn ', one is' Thunder Escape ', one is' Near Golden Light Escape ', and the last is' Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield ', which is the Taoist technique in Meng Yuchang's jade pendant. It can not only be used for self-defense, but also can cover the opponent and turn them into smoke when the nine dragons breathe fire."
Shi Xuan was a little nervous. Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield was not a magic weapon, but a Taoist technique. He thought for a moment and said, "I have already mastered the Thunder Sword Qi. If I use the sword escape with all my strength, it is equivalent to a Taoist technique of the second rank. Compared with the Lower Grade Jindan Grandmaster, it is a waste to choose a Taoist technique that can only be practiced to the first rank." As for after Jindan, there were many Taoist techniques in the 'Treasure Record' for Shi Xuan. For the escape method, there was the Congenital Wind and Thunder Escape. Now, it was enough to use the sword escape method.
Mo Yuan nodded and agreed with Shi Xuan's words. Then he said, "In addition, a true disciple can also choose a celestial device of the Fulfilment of the Eighth Heaven and an additional 200,000 Karma points. In addition, you killed Duan Wuqing, so the sect will also reward you 50,000 Karma points. You are not far from the roots of the Fusang Divine Tree and the 10,000-year-old Azure Tree that you want."
Shi Xuan did not expect that becoming a true disciple would have so many benefits. He was indeed a true disciple of a sect.
After saying goodbye to his master, Shi Xuan then knew that Xu Ruoshui had gone out to travel seven or eight years ago. Zhou Dielan had also broken through to the Qi Drawing Realm and went out two years ago. Ming Qingyue had not returned yet.
* * *
The ceremony to become a true disciple was not much different from the ceremony to acknowledge a master. Under the envious and jealous eyes of all the outer and inner disciples, Shi Xuan followed the process and became the tenth true disciple of Penglai's generation.
After the ceremony, all the disciples and elders left, leaving only Shi Xuan, Mo Yuan, and Sect Leader Zhang Zhengyan. Zhang Zhengyan touched his long white eyebrows and smiled kindly at Shi Xuan. "The ceremony just now was for others to see. Next is the real ceremony to become a true disciple."
"Ah?" Shi Xuan was a little puzzled.
Mo Yuan glanced at him indifferently. "The so-called true disciple is a disciple who may inherit the orthodoxy of the sect. Naturally, he has to pay respects to the Primordial Spirit Zhenren in the sect. The three great true disciples are all kept by the Primordial Spirit Zhenren. Except for the Elder of Technique Imparting, the others can only know their own sect. "
Shi Xuan now understood what he had to do, but he still asked curiously, "Which Primordial Spirit Zhenren do I have to pay respects to?" There must be more than one in the sect.
"There are three ancestors above the Primordial Spirit Zhenren in the sect. One is still a Primordial Spirit Zhenren, who is collecting secret treasures and materials for the first tribulation in another world. As for the other one, you can come and pay respects after you have achieved the Upper Grade Jindan. The last one is the Primordial Yang God Zhenren, Jiang Zhenren." The one who answered Shi Xuan's question was Sect Leader Zhang Zhengyan.
After his curiosity was satisfied, Shi Xuan said no more and followed Sect Leader Zhang and Master Mo Yuan to a small path in the Receiving Heaven Hall.
