"Inner disciple?" Dongbo Xue Ying's heart skipped a beat.
Xi Wei looked at him, the corners of her mouth curling upwards. "The Sacred Master's disciples are divided into honorary disciples, inner disciples, and personal disciples. Personal disciples have the highest status, followed by inner disciples, and finally honorary disciples. However, even though the Sacred Master has lived for so long, he has only accepted three personal disciples. The requirements for becoming a personal disciple are very strict. One must either have a grade one True Meaning! Or one must grasp a grade one Deity Heart within 10,000 years. If one meets either of these criteria, the Sacred Master will take the initiative to accept him as a disciple. "
Dongbo Xue Ying muttered to himself.
A grade one True Meaning Transcendent? That was ridiculously difficult.
Grasping a grade one Deity Heart within 10,000 years was relatively easier. After all, one could first condense a grade two Deity Heart before breaking through to grade one. Most grade one True Meaning Transcendents could condense a grade one Deity Heart within 3,000 years.
"Of the three personal disciples the Sacred Master accepted, one is a grade one True Meaning Transcendent, another grasped a grade one Deity Heart within 10,000 years. The last one … was the Sacred Master's favorite, so he made an exception to accept him as a personal disciple, "Xi Wei said." Since the Sacred Master is dead, he can no longer make an exception. Thus, becoming a personal disciple of the Sacred Master is very simple. You just need to grasp a grade one True Meaning or a grade one Deity Heart within 10,000 years. "
Dongbo Xue Ying helplessly said, "If only I could grasp a grade one True Meaning, the calamity of the Xia people would have long been resolved."
Xi Wei was startled. She immediately understood that Dongbo Xue Ying was still most concerned about the calamity of the Xia people.
"That's right. If you can grasp hold of a grade one True Meaning, your personal combat power will surpass your current level. You will be able to defeat the armies of the Sorcerer God and the Great Demonic God and destroy that stable spatial passage." Xi Wei nodded. "As long as this news is leaked, there will definitely be powerful existences from the Deity world who will take the initiative to accept you as a disciple. The Sorcerer God and the Great Demon God? They aren't even worth mentioning. However, it is best not to reveal the fact that you have grasped a grade one True Meaning. Regardless of who your teacher is, the moment it is leaked, you will be seen as a thorn in their side and will be eliminated with all their might. "
"As for the grade one True Meanings absolute Transcendents, many of them were killed during their early stages of growth." Xi Wei said helplessly, "That's why the grade one True Meaning Transcendents in history are usually very cautious. Only after they become World Deities would they gradually make the news public."
Dongbo Xue Ying nodded.
Grade one True Meaning …
He also wanted to, but from the information he had obtained, how difficult would it be to break through? This kind of thing could not be forced. He could only let nature take its course. He just needed to do his best in cultivation. Thinking too much about other things would instead affect his state of mind.
"I wouldn't dare to force myself to become a direct disciple." Dongbo Xue Ying asked. "But how can I become an inner disciple?"
"Follow me," Crimson Rock said.
…
This was a long stone path with stone steps that led to the peak of a tall mountain in the distance.
"Look." Crimson Rock, Xi Wei, and Dongbo Xue Ying all came to the side of the stone path. Crimson Rock pointed into the distance. "This is the Path of Reflection! It is a test of your inner heart. It is much more difficult than the test of the fifth vine leaf of the Sky-Reaching Vine. After becoming a Deity, the disciples of Crimson Rock Mountain will walk this Path of Reflection. It is split into three sections.
"Transcendents only need to walk through the first section to reach the threshold of becoming an inner disciple."
Dongbo Xue Ying looked at this Path of Reflection thoughtfully. It seemed that the powerful existences of the Deity world placed great importance on the 'inner heart' of a cultivator.
… …
A nine-storied pagoda.
Very soon, Crimson Rock and Xi Wei brought Dongbo Xue Ying to the front of this pagoda.
"This is the Soaring Cloud Pagoda." Crimson Rock pointed at the nine-storied pagoda. "When Transcendents enter, it will be a battle between Transcendents. When Deities enter, it will be a battle between Deities! As long as you can pass through six floors, you will reach the threshold of becoming an inner disciple. "
"Both the Path of Reflection and the Soaring Cloud Pagoda must meet the requirements. Once you pass the first section of the Path of Reflection and the sixth floor of the Soaring Cloud Pagoda, you will naturally become an inner disciple." Crimson Rock looked at Dongbo Xue Ying. "These are the conditions set by the Sacred Lord. No one can change them."
"I understand."
Dongbo Xue Ying nodded.
The Path of Reflection and the Soaring Cloud Pagoda?
"It's very difficult. Your cultivation is still too low." Crimson Rock shook his head. "You'll know once you try. You still need to cultivate bitterly and become an inner disciple before the war breaks out."
"Mn." Dongbo Xue Ying nodded. Now that he was an honorary disciple, he had already given Xia people a chance to fight. However, he still needed to become stronger!
Crimson Rock lightly pointed at the void, and a dense array of words condensed in the air.
Dongbo Xue Ying raised his head, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
"If you are still an honorary disciple when the war breaks out, then follow this plan," Crimson Rock said. "First, exchange for a hundred thousand Deity crystals, then use those hundred thousand Deity crystals to exchange for various treasures."
"Ah." Dongbo Xue Ying frowned. "Out of the hundred thousand Deity crystals, 30,000 Deity crystals are to be used to purchase a large number of Deity corpses?"
"To nurture your Blood Creeping Flower," Crimson Rock said.
"The Blood Creeping Flower is a plant lifeform with a huge body and a strong life force. It's an extremely suitable weapon of war! Letting it absorb the energy of heaven and earth is too slow, and absorbing Deity crystals is too extravagant. Deity corpses are the best. The corpses of Deities … contain extremely strong energy, and are much cheaper than Deity crystals. 30,000 Deity corpses is more than enough, enough for the Blood Creeping Flower to grow to the late-stage Deity realm! However, I estimate that it will need ten years to reach the mid-stage Deity realm, and thirty years to reach the late-stage Deity realm. Even if the Blood Creeping Flower is only at the mid-stage Deity realm, it is still different from ordinary Deities. Its body is huge, and its countless vines cover an area of ten thousand li. Wanting to kill it would be even harder than killing a late-stage Deity realm expert. "
Dongbo Xue Ying nodded. Plant lifeforms indeed had an extremely strong life force.
"You have to hurry and send the Blood Creeping Flower to the Xia people's world," Crimson Rock said. "After all, it isn't a native of the Xia people's world. Only by becoming a Deity within the Xia people's world will it not be rejected."
"Then send it over. Once the Blood Creeping Flower breaks through to Deity, the commotion it causes will be huge. I'm afraid that everyone will know … that a Deity has been born, right?" Dongbo Xue Ying frowned.
"It's good that they know." Xi Wei said complacently, "If the Sorcerer God, the Great Demon God, hesitates and wants to delay the war by ten thousand years, then Dongbo brat, you will have sufficient strength to cultivate. If you cultivate within the Crimson Rock Mountain, you might have already refined the World Core of the Xia people's world."
Dongbo Xue Ying frowned. "From what you guys said, since the Sorcerer God, the Great Demon God, is so confident, I'm afraid that he won't delay the war just because of the birth of a Deity."
"Even if he doesn't delay it, they will still think of ways to find out more about the Xia people's background. More importantly, they will want to know whether you are dead or alive," Xi Wei said. "As long as you continue to stay within the Crimson Rock Mountain and don't leave, it will be extremely difficult for them to investigate! Unless they go through the Temporal Temple, which is unable to infiltrate the Crimson Rock Mountain. They can only investigate through the Blood Creeping Flower, which is very troublesome for the Temporal Temple … Thus, if they were to investigate through the Temporal Temple, the price would be ridiculously high. If they were to really buy the information, they would lose a huge amount of Deity crystals! At the very least, they would lose a million Deity crystals. If they don't buy the information, then they will never know about your background. This will be even more beneficial to you. "
Dongbo Xue Ying couldn't help but nod slightly.
"If I don't return to the Xia people's world?" Dongbo Xue Ying couldn't help but ask, "Then how will I contact the Xia people?"
"The Crimson Rock Mountain is equivalent to an independent world. It is extremely close to the Xia people's world. Thus, you can use a communication treasure to communicate with them," Crimson Rock said. "I don't need too much. Just a hundred Deity crystals will do! I will add some materials from the Crimson Rock Mountain to it. The materials from the Crimson Rock Mountain can isolate all probing laws. Unless a powerful existence from the Deity World personally acts, the Temporal Temple won't be able to see through this communication treasure. "
Dongbo Xue Ying immediately thought of an item. It was a cloth bag left behind by Ancestor Black Wind, which could isolate all probing laws.
"You can use the communication treasure to contact the Xia people at any time. But you, and even your avatar, will not be able to return. Even if the Temporal Temple were to reverse time and investigate, they wouldn't be able to find out that you came out from the Crimson Rock Mountain! If they want to confirm whether you are alive or dead, they will have to go through the Blood Creeping Flower. However, the Blood Creeping Flower has already stepped into the Deity Stage. Controlling a Deity Stage plant lifeform is extremely difficult. The Temporal Temple will offer an astonishing price to the Sorcerer God, the Great Demon God. " Crimson Rock smiled. They knew a lot, so they understood the rules. Naturally, they could use a small amount of resources to maximize their effectiveness.
Dongbo Xue Ying thought about it carefully and felt that there wasn't a problem.
On the same day.
Dongbo Xue Ying had already arranged everything.
"Master." The Blood Creeping Flower transformed into a red-skinned female doll whose body was covered in green leaves and red flowers.
"Xue Man, be careful on this trip. Go to my hometown, Water Rites Town's Snowrock Castle and find Jing Qiu." Dongbo Xue Ying instructed.
"Yes." The Blood Creeping Flower was extremely obedient.
"Alright, go ahead, little fellow. Go to the world of the Xia people and grow up well," Crimson Rock said as he waved his hand. Beside him, Xi Wei had a complicated look in her eyes. She was envious. After all, it had been a long time since she had left Crimson Rock Mountain.
Hu, the Blood Creeping Flower disappeared. He left Crimson Rock Mountain and arrived in the outside world of the Xia people.
…
In the world of the Xia people, within the Tranquil Sun Province, Azure River County, Water Rites Town's Snowrock Castle, Jing Qiu was currently residing there. She was certain that the moment her husband returned, he would return to Snowrock Castle first.
"More than four years."
Jing Qiu held onto the railing as she looked at the snow-covered Snowrock Mountain. Her heart was heavy, because according to the information she had received, three years was more than enough time for them to challenge the Sky-Reaching Vine.
After not returning for more than four years, Jing Qiu became even more anxious and uneasy. She couldn't believe it, and she didn't want to accept that it was a terrible outcome.
"He'll definitely come back, he definitely will," Jing Qiu said quietly.
