Xiao Can, who was next to him, chuckled and said, "Why don't Little Qin go and choose another bamboo to keep something for himself? Every disciple has a bamboo flute. It'll look bad on you if you don't have one. "
Qin Di's eyes flitted over the four, "Senior uncle, forget it. I'm not interested in a flute."
As he said this, he thought to himself, If I choose another Spirit Immortal bamboo, will it belong to me? It looks like it's going to be difficult! "
Li Mo waved his hand, "Go pick another one. This time, no one will fight you over it! Anyone who dares will have to go through me first! " He turned to Xiao Can, "He-he, junior brother Xiao, I'm warning you, you can't have any ideas!"
Xiao Can laughed, "I don't have any ideas. What ideas can I have? Senior brother, I think one of these Immortal Music Bamboos can be made into a flute and the other into a flute. I'll be satisfied with both! "
Li Mo smiled, "I don't think so. Junior brother, look, these two bamboos are too thin. They're not a good material for a flute!"
Xiao Can shouted, "Senior brother, these are spiritual immortal bamboo. They can be as thick as you want. If you want to make them into a flute, I won't agree."
Li Mo laughed, "Fine, we'll do as you say."
The peak Void Step Shi Yang spoke, "Little Qin, since the two senior uncles have spoken, you'll have to go through the trouble of chopping another bamboo."
When Qin Di heard this, he didn't refuse anymore and flew out.
Moments later, he came back from the foot of the mountain with an arm-thick Immortal Music Bamboo.
"Master, I've brought it. Can you take a look at the level of this bamboo?"
"Alright, put it on the stone table."
The middle-aged man took out a pale yellow jade and examined the bamboo.
Not long after, another wave of exclamations came.
"Heavens, this is also a fifth-grade Spirit Immortal Immortal Sound Bamboo. This, this …"
"Damn, just how many spiritual immortal bamboo are there on this mountain?"
"How is this possible? In the past, it would take several months to find a first-grade Spirit Immortal bamboo. Now, Little Qin can casually cut down a fifth-grade Spirit Immortal bamboo. This is unbelievable! "
"Little Qin, why don't you go and cut a few more?"
Qin Di chuckled and said, "Martial Uncle, that's all! There were two or three third-grade Spiritual Immortal Divine Sound Bamboos, but there were only a few fifth-grade and sixth-grade Spiritual Immortal Bamboo. I chopped them all! "
The few of them stared at each other. If they were to hand over the fifth-grade Spiritual Immortal Divine Music Bamboo to Qin Di just like that, it wouldn't be right. This was the sect's treasure. It wouldn't be right to hand it over to a new disciple. However, if they were to force him to give it to the sect, it would be even more inexcusable! As the saying goes, no matter how many times you say it, it doesn't matter how many times you say it. If you don't keep your word, what would the Celestial Music Sect become?
Hence, after some hesitation, Shi Yang, who was the most powerful, made the decision. "We'll give this Divine Music Bamboo to Little Qin. However, we can't give it to him now. We have to wait until he reaches the late-stage Nascent Soul stage before he is qualified to use this bamboo instrument! Otherwise, not only will it not be able to unleash its full potential, it might even be snatched away by other sects. That would be a great loss to the Celestial Music Sect! "
Qin Di didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, This is just painting a cake to appease my hunger. In the end, I still didn't get the flute! Forget it, I'm really here to learn the art of the zither. When I create the immortal artifact Phoenix Zither, these fifth-grade flutes will be nothing!
Then, he heard Shi Yang say, "Although I've agreed to accept you as a disciple, the next four tests still have to be carried out. Let me see how your overall strength is. Little Qin, don't worry. No matter the result, as long as you swear under the Celestial Music Stone that you won't do anything to harm the Celestial Music Sect, you can become my disciple! "
Qin Di nodded in agreement.
Then, the two uncle-masters bid farewell and flew away.
Qin Di followed his master Shi Yang and his senior sister Shi Lu to a garden at the back of the mountain. There were many larks gathered in the garden, chirping non-stop.
Shi Yang smiled and said, "From now on, you will listen to the chirping of the birds. After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, record the music you hear in a jade slip. I want to see how your comprehension of music theory and your ability to memorize it is. This is also a test that must be passed by the Celestial Music Sect."
Thus, Qin Di stood in the garden, closed his eyes, and listened to the chirping of the larks.
Because he had learned the language of birds, what he heard was not just the chirping of the birds, but a continuous stream of songs. Many songs intertwined together, forming a cheerful movement!
"Jiji, spring is coming, flowers are blooming, red red, white white … The colors are so cute, bees and butterflies fly over …"
The lyrics were simple, just like a children's song. It made one's heart feel pure, forgetting the pain of killing.
The tune was also very mellow, rising and falling, with a wide range, like the sound of nature, making one forget to leave.
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Qin Di opened his eyes, took out a blank jade slip, and recorded the movement he heard in it. Then, he handed it to his master.
Shi Yang scanned it with her divine sense and could not help but be surprised. "Not only do you have the music score, but you also have the lyrics. Little Qin, do you know what the birds are singing?"
Qin Di nodded. "I can barely understand it."
Shi Yang looked at him suspiciously, and immediately sent her divine sense into the jade slip. She said, "Let me see how much of the music you have recorded. If you can reach 20%, you will be at the level of an inner disciple; 30% is equivalent to an elite disciple; 40% can be a true disciple … As for 50%, 50% … "At this point, she actually stopped and could not continue!
Sect Leader Shi Lu was a little surprised and asked, "Master, how much of the music did Junior Brother memorize? Can he become a true disciple? "
Shi Yang turned around and looked around, looking a little excited. She slightly lowered her voice and said, "Incredible, he actually memorized 100% of the music, not missing a single syllable! In some parts, he even listened more carefully than I did! "
Shi Lu also could not help but be shocked. "Ah, my god! Could it be that Junior Brother is a fairy that descended into the world? Otherwise, how could he have such a strong divine sense with his peak Golden Core cultivation? Master, with my late Nascent Soul cultivation, and after cultivating in the Celestial Music Sect for so many years, I can only remember 80% to 90% of the music. "
Shi Yang also could not help but shake her head. She looked at Qin Di and said, "Little Qin, did you have some fortuitous encounter? Or did you cultivate a method to strengthen your divine sense? Tell me, what level has your Divine Sense reached now? "
Qin Di replied, "Disciple has always been cultivating a method to attack the divine sense. When I was at the Qi Condensation stage, I cultivated the 'Forging Mind Art'. Later, I cultivated the 'Art of Setting Sun', 'Gentle Breeze and Fine Rain' and 'Cold Wind and Cold Rain'. Later, I met an old ancestor of the Golden Core Sect, and he used the 'Immortal Shows the Way' a few times, broadening my divine sense. In addition to that, I also happened to eat a 'Heavenly Saint Fruit' two years ago, so my divine sense is very strong. I don't know what level it has reached."
Shi Yang and Shi Lu were both stunned. The 'Forging Mind Art' and 'Immortal Shows the Way' were fine, but what was the 'Art of Setting Sun'? What were the 'Gentle Breeze and Fine Rain' and 'Cold Wind and Cold Rain'? And the 'Heavenly Saint Fruit', they had never even heard of it.
In the end, Shi Yang did not want to lose face as a master, so he coughed and said, "Okay, this test is over. Next is the third test, Wen Xian Music. For this test, I will personally play the real 'Soul Absentmindedness'. Little Qin, you can try your best and see how long you can last. If you can last for ten minutes, it is equivalent to your divine sense surpassing the beginner level of the Void Step. After half an incense stick of time, it is equivalent to the middle level of the Void Step. If you can last for one incense stick of time, it means that your divine sense has reached the peak of the Void Step. If I have not fainted after playing this song, it means that your divine sense has reached the beginner level of the Dao Fusing Realm. "
