"Ugh …" Hao Ren opened his mouth in surprise.
He didn't know that the Immortal Physique was a disadvantage. However, on second thought, the level 10 demon beasts had to eat all kinds of treasures to break through the Heavenly Tribulation. His Immortal Physique was equivalent to the body of an immortal, but he didn't have the strength of an immortal. Wasn't it a great supplement for demon beasts?!
When he came to the Demon Sea from home, he only told Xie Yujia that he was going to run some errands, so they didn't know that he was going to the Demon Sea.
"You are here to deliver the elixir pills to me. If the nine demon kings eat them, it has nothing to do with me, but it will affect my relationship with the Dragon God Shrine. How about this …" The voice paused for a moment before continuing, "If you are my disciple, you can stay on Penglai Island and cultivate for two to three years. When you reach peak Qian-level, you can leave the Demon Sea after that."
Speechless, Hao Ren looked at the bronze door and froze when he heard the words "two to three years". Then, he remembered that the Penglai Island Master wanted to take him as a disciple after just one meeting, and he felt even more frustrated.
These powerful cultivators were all the same; they always wanted to take disciples.
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior, but I have something urgent to do and can't stay on your island," Hao Ren said.
If he didn't return for two to three days, Grandma would be worried sick, let alone two to three years. If he didn't return for two to three months, she would think that he was missing, and she would be very sad.
Hao Ren didn't want his family and Zhao Yanzi to worry about him, so he would never stay on Penglai Island. No matter how dangerous it was, he would return to the land.
"Humph! I want to take you as my disciple because of your great talent, but you are not willing!" The voice on the other side of the bronze door suddenly sounded angry.
"Lady Zhen still has to be polite to me. I want to see what you can do!"
Suddenly, a golden light shot out from the bronze door.
Hao Ren didn't expect this grandmaster to attack so suddenly. Immediately, he used the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll and formed a light wall to block the golden light.
After reaching top-tier Dui-level, the quality and speed of the sword energies released by the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll were much better than before. With the strength of the Nascent Soul Realm, the sword energies blocked the golden light instantly.
To Hao Ren's surprise, this golden light was transformed from a spiritual sense and wasn't a dharma treasure. It turned and hacked toward Hao Ren's face.
Hao Ren was anxious and angry. Who would have thought that these old guys who were above the Soul Formation Realm would have such strange tempers? He had merely refused to be their disciple, but they were so angry that they attacked a junior without any regard for their dignity.
"Oh … Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll …"
Some confused voices came from behind the bronze door, but the golden light didn't slow down. Suddenly, it split into three and chopped at Hao Ren's limbs.
"Break!" Hao Ren's sword energies containing lightning energy dashed toward the three golden lights.
Sizzle …
Hao Ren's five-elemental lightning energy instantly destroyed the three golden lights.
Standing near the bronze door, Qingfeng and Mingyue looked at Hao Ren in surprise, not expecting that Hao Ren could defeat their master's casual test.
Their master, who was in seclusion cultivation for more than 300 days a year, rarely showed his strength. However, he was interested in attacking this cultivator from the outer sea!
"Hehe! Not bad! It seems like the Dragon God Shrine lives up to its name! "Relaxed laughter came from behind the bronze door, and a sword-shaped dharma treasure suddenly flew out.
Hao Ren's sword energies suddenly condensed. Facing the silver longsword that was flying toward him, he clashed with the tip of the sword without thinking!
Ding!
The two swords collided with ear-piercing noises.
The longsword that Penglai Island Master threw out actually split Hao Ren's five-colored longsword in half!
Fortunately, Hao Ren's longsword was made of sword energies. The broken parts of the sword mixed with each other and turned into a solid five-colored longsword.
"Calm in the face of danger! Not bad! Did the Shrine Master teach you personally? "The voice from behind the bronze door sounded, and the silver longsword flew up and stabbed toward the spot between Hao Ren's eyebrows!
This was the upper dantian, one of the major acupoints in the human body. If it was pierced, all of one's cultivation strength would be destroyed!
Hao Ren couldn't hold back anymore. With the five-colored sword in his hand, he instantly used the first strike of the Mystic Water Sword Techniques!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Sparks flew everywhere.
Hao Ren's five-colored sword knocked back the silver longsword!
"Oh?" A surprised voice sounded from behind the bronze door.
Hao Ren used the Immortal Sword Technique, and his physique was the Immortal Physique.
"Kid, are you a Heavenly Dragon or a Heavenly Immortal?" Penglai Island Master couldn't help but ask Hao Ren as he straightened the silver sword.
The cultivators who had reached the Soul Formation Realm could ascend but didn't. They stayed in the mortal world and were equivalent to Earthly Immortals.
However, Hao Ren had a dragon core and an Immortal Physique. Penglai Island Master had seen many cultivators, but he was confused.
He suspected that Hao Ren had reached the Heavenly Dragon Realm or the Heavenly Immortal Realm and had returned to the land to cultivate again for some reason.
"I'm a mortal. I swallowed a dragon core by mistake, and that's why I started cultivating," Hao Ren answered.
"I see …"
The bronze door slowly opened. Inside was a small cave with a radius of five meters. A chubby old man sat on a yellow praying mat.
Qingfeng and Mingyue were so surprised that their eyes almost popped out when they saw the opening of the bronze door. They had served their master for years, but it was the first time that their master opened the bronze door to welcome a guest when he was in seclusion cultivation.
Even when the island masters of the other two celestial mountains came to visit their master, they would talk behind the bronze door instead of opening the door to welcome a guest!
Surprised that the closed bronze door opened suddenly, Hao Ren hurried to see Penglai Island Master's face.
Sitting steadily on the hassock, Patriarch Penglai was short, fat, and bald. His face did not look fair and tender, but was covered with all kinds of wrinkles, making him as ugly as he could be!
Penglai Island was as beautiful as an immortal realm. In Hao Ren's imagination, the island master might not be handsome and elegant, but he had never imagined that he would look like this!
"Not human, not demon, not dragon, not dragon, not immortal …" Penglai Island Master looked at Hao Ren with his big and small eyes. "This is your fortune."
"Greetings, Senior." Hao Ren put away his sword energies and cupped his hands at him.
Sitting in the narrow stone room, Penglai Island Master's wrinkled face reminded Hao Ren of the Earth God.
Penglai Island Master raised his right hand slightly, and the small bottle in Qingfeng's hand flew into his hand automatically.
He opened the bottle and looked at it. Then, he nodded in satisfaction. "This is what I want."
"Since you came here with elixirs, I'll give you something regardless of whether you can escape the pursuit of the nine demon kings."
Penglai Island Master opened his hands, and a white light flashed. Then, several items appeared before his knees.
"The first is the Immortal Fruit, the first Earth Fruit. The second is the Golden Immortal Peach, the first Heavenly Fruit. The third is the supreme spiritual treasure, the Green Wave Sword. The fourth is the Penglai Immortal Token. With this token, you can go to other islands to hide in danger. "
Hao Ren looked at the two fruits. The first one was white and tender, and it seemed to be the legendary Ginseng Fruit. The second one was a golden immortal peach with intense nature essence. Both of them were immortal fruits that mortals couldn't see easily.
However, Hao Ren had seen the power of supreme spiritual treasures. If he could have one more supreme spiritual treasure, it would be easier for him to deal with enemies in the future.
The token seemed to be more suitable for his current situation. If he wanted to get out of the Demon Sea, it seemed more practical with the token.
"You can take all four of them together, or you can take the fifth one," Penglai Island Master said.
Hao Ren blinked his eyes in surprise. He had thought that he could only choose one of the four items, but he didn't expect that he could take all four of them together.
Now, he was full of anticipation for the fifth one …
"What's the fifth one?" Hao Ren asked.
"If you break my Seven Killing Array, I won't take you as my disciple," Penglai Island Master said.
"Ugh …" Hao Ren looked at him and asked, "Does it mean that if I take the first four items, I will become your disciple?"
"Of course. If we aren't master and disciple, how can I give you such a valuable gift?" Penglai Island Master said.
Hao Ren was speechless, thinking that Penglai Island Master still wanted to force him to be his disciple. But then again, this greeting gift between master and disciple was really not meager.
Two immortal fruits could help him reach Xun-level, and the supreme spiritual treasure Green Wave Sword could double his strength. With the Immortal Token, he could travel across the Demon Sea.
"This old man is determined to take me as his disciple …"
Seeing Hao Ren's hesitation, Qingfeng and Mingyue's eyes turned red with jealousy. They had served their master for years but didn't get any treasures. Hao Ren had just arrived, and he could officially take Penglai as his master and get such a generous gift …
"Then, I'll take the fifth one," Hao Ren said.
Hearing Hao Ren's words, the two boys widened their eyes in surprise. They remembered that there were tens of thousands of cultivators on Penglai Island, but Hao Ren refused such an opportunity!
"What a pity …" Penglai Island Master waved his big sleeve, and the four items before him disappeared.
If the talent system of the cultivation sects was an audition, and anyone who met certain requirements could join the sect, then the talent system of the overseas cultivation world was a selection system. If one didn't meet certain requirements, he wouldn't be accepted.
Hao Ren's Immortal Physique made Penglai Island Master want to take him as his disciple. After testing Hao Ren's power, he was even more satisfied. He could see that Hao Ren had excellent talent and understanding. Even without the guidance of a master, Hao Ren was still an independent cultivator without an official master.
Hao Ren had a mortal body, an external dragon core, the Immortal Physique, and a trace of demonic aura that seemed to have been exchanged from a demon beast. Penglai Island Master wanted to know how far Hao Ren could cultivate.
There were countless people like Hao Ren who had all kinds of opportunities in the world. However, there were not many who could cultivate to Hao Ren's level.
Only with great perseverance could one have great opportunities.
Seven-colored lights floated in the high sky above Penglai Island like silk, and immortal music sounded.
Penglai Island Master and Qingfeng and Mingyue who were standing by the peach tree suddenly disappeared. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
