"You're … not bad." Su Ningfei didn't say much. She pointed with her right hand, and a large amount of purple mist came out of her palm and condensed into a small purple pebble.
"Take this. You can enter the secret area at any time in the future. If you have any questions, you can come find me here. "Su Ningfei still gave him the token in the end. It wasn't her junior's, but her own.
Living in seclusion in the secret area, while enjoying the nourishment of Great Yin's endless Essence Qi, one also had to fulfill certain obligations.
Choosing the disciples who entered the sect and giving them the necessary pointers was something that secluded cultivators like them had to do.
Choosing at least one person every hundred years.
Su Ningfei hadn't chosen anyone in the past hundred years, and Lu Sheng just happened to appear in front of her. She didn't have to follow this rule, but Lu Sheng had indeed piqued her interest.
Lu Sheng naturally understood this rule. He was overjoyed, and quickly took the purple pebble.
"Thank you for your guidance, Teacher!"
"I'm not your teacher. You can call me Hei Ning, "Su Ningfei said flatly.
"Yes, Teacher Hei Ning," Lu Sheng said respectfully.
"As for True Qi, I'll teach you a method. Don't practice your basic True Qi, and convert all your True Qi to the one I gave you," Su Ningfei said simply. Su Ningfei explained simply. Just like the others before her, she passed on her unique foundational cultivation method to them.
However, unlike the previous few people, she hesitated for a moment before adding a small step at the end of her recitation of the cultivation formula.
This small step was something she didn't add when she accepted people before.
According to normal procedures, secluders like her would complete their tasks step by step when accepting people and passing on their inheritances. But this time, for some reason, Su Ningfei added a small step into the mix. She even had Lu Sheng memorize it repeatedly.
Time passed slowly, and six hours passed in the blink of an eye.
It was time for Lu Sheng to leave. Disciples like them could only enter the secret area for a limited time. With their current cultivation, staying here for too long wouldn't do them any good.
"Thank you, Master. I will take my leave now." Lu Sheng bowed to Su Ningfei seriously.
Regardless of cultivation or attitude, the other party was worthy of his bow.
He had already learned a bit about Su Ningfei's true strength through the top-notch explanation of True Qi cultivation.
She knew the countless True Qi techniques of the Great Yin like the back of her hand. Her knowledge far exceeded Lu Sheng's imagination. His understanding and research of True Qi, physical body, and mental consciousness had even reached the microscopic level.
It could be said that this Teacher Hei Ning's academic level was definitely at the top of the entire Great Yin.
"Go. Don't forget to cultivate every day and come to the Secret Realm at least once a month. I will check on your progress, "Su Ningfei reminded.
"I understand." Lu Sheng lowered his head and took a few steps back. His body slowly became transparent and faded. After a few breaths, he completely disappeared from the lakeside.
Su Ningfei stood where she was and stared at where Lu Sheng disappeared with narrowed eyes. She didn't move for a long time.
She originally planned on teaching a random disciple as if she was completing a mission. But this time, she actually added something extra to the standard teaching materials for this young man named Lu Sheng.
"If he really has the Savage Moon Body like me …" Su Ningfei murmured. The lake of her heart that hadn't moved in a long time rippled.
"I'll take a closer look when my main body comes. If he really is …" She closed her eyes, turned around, and walked back.
"Whoosh!" A beam of purple light shot out.
A light breeze blew past, and the fallen leaves fluttered in the air. In the blink of an eye, the lakeside was empty.
…
A pillar of white light suddenly descended from the sky and landed soundlessly on the bronze formation of ten thousand horses in the center of the hall.
Lu Sheng's figure slowly appeared from the pillar of light. At the same time, a purple talisman landed beside him.
"Whoosh!"
The talisman was half the height of a person. It stabbed into the bronze formation and made an ear-piercing sound like a sharp blade.
Zhang Shilong and a few guards at the side of the bronze formation had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the pillar of light descend, they quickly went up.
All eyes were focused on the purple talisman beside Lu Sheng.
"This is purple? There are a total of twenty-three people who have purple talismans in the secret area, and there are four near the lake that Lu Sheng went to with purple talismans … which one is it? "Zhang Shilong looked closely at the patterns on the talisman with great anticipation.
"Wait … it's not Spiritual Master Zi Yang's talisman." The person who liked to teach and take in disciples by the lake was the legendary Spiritual Master Zi Yang.
He had a high level of cultivation and was famous for his good temper. The chances of being taught and taken in as a disciple were very high. That was why Zhang Shilong told Lu Sheng to go there to try his luck.
One had to know that not all examinees would be taught and taken in as disciples by the hermit after entering the secret area. They had their own rules and standards. If one's talent was too bad, they wouldn't even bother showing up. Not to mention teaching.
Fortunately, Lu Sheng's talent was quite good. With a Scarlet Jade rank evaluation, most hermits wouldn't be stingy with teaching. The only thing that Zhang Shilong hoped for was that the teacher who would guide Lu Sheng would have a higher cultivation base. It would be best if the teacher was at least in the upper three tiers of the Earth Origin Stage. That way, his position and authority in the sect would be greater. He would also have an advantage as the person who recommended him.
One had to know that most of the time, the disciples who were accepted as disciples were the representatives of the hermits of the Thousand Sun Sect outside of the secret area.
However, this new purple talisman made Zhang Shilong a bit dazed.
He had never seen the patterns on this talisman before. The intricate patterns and symbols on it only felt familiar. But he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
It wasn't just him. Even the guards at the side of the bronze formation didn't recognize this new purple talisman.
The white light on Lu Sheng's body faded, and he pressed his hand on the purple talisman on the side.
"Whoosh!"
The talisman instantly turned into a beam of light and entered between his eyebrows, forming a purple V-shaped symbol.
"Lu Sheng." Zhang Shilong hurried over to greet him. "You didn't meet the Purple Sun Spiritual Master?" he asked a bit nervously.
Lu Sheng nodded.
"Indeed, I didn't. The hermit I met was a female. She had many roots on her body, very white skin, and purple lips …"
"Purple lips?" Zhang Shilong frowned. "Many roots on her body?" He didn't seem to have heard of this hermit before.
Could it be a sect expert who had just entered the secret area? He wasn't sure.
"Wait … wait!!" Suddenly, a trembling voice came from the side.
Lu Sheng turned his head and saw that it was Song City.
He had come out long ago. When he saw Lu Sheng, he hurried over to see if Lu Sheng had a teacher. He also happened to hear the conversation between the two.
"Purple lips … many roots on her body … is it … is there a dark golden crescent moon above her head?!!" Song Dou's expression was very strange. It was no longer at the level of surprise, but at the level of horror.
He seemed to be afraid!
"I didn't notice that. But when Master makes a move, black clouds will fall to the ground," Lu Sheng said hesitantly.
"Clang!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Du retreated more than ten meters as if he had seen a ghost.
He was not the only one. Zhang Shilong and the other guards also ran away from Lu Sheng as if they had seen a ghost.
For a moment, the entire hall was silent. Only the sound of a copper cauldron that had been knocked over could be heard.
"You … Elders??" Lu Sheng was stunned. He didn't know what this group of people meant.
Zhang Shilong's mouth was trembling. He kept rubbing his hands, especially the hand that had slapped Lu Sheng. His face was pale, as if he had thought of something terrifying. His body was trembling.
"Purple … it's actually that person!! Oh my god!! "
"Quick! Inform Sect Leader!! "
One of the guards suddenly shouted and rushed out of the hall.
"Sound the alarm! Quick quick quick!! Emergency alert! Everyone quarantine!! Everyone quarantine!! "
"Everything within two miles of the hall is quarantined!!"
A few guards rushed out of the hall like crazy. They shouted and sent out message talismans as if they were free.
The golden communication talismans that soared into the sky were all symbols of the highest level of urgency.
Dong …!
Dong …!
Dong …!
Soon, before Lu Sheng could react, he heard the deep and long sound of a huge bell coming from outside.
There was the sound of footsteps of a large group of people surrounding the place.
"Hiss …"
A layer of golden light blocked the entrance, and a large number of golden symbols were constantly rotating on the light barrier.
"Hua!"
Two silhouettes clad in silver armor descended from the skies. They strode through the golden barrier of light. Their gazes swept across the great hall, and quickly focused on Lu Sheng. To be exact, their eyes landed on the purple symbol on his forehead.
"Sect Leader Wan, I'll leave everything to you," one of the armored men said to the other in a low voice.
"Sect Leader Chen, you're too kind. We should work together in the face of danger," the other armored man said seriously. His long white beard could be seen through his helmet. He was obviously an old man.
Lu Sheng was a bit confused. He only entered the Secret Area once. Was there a need to be so exaggerated?
"Hiss …"
A huge Double Horn Python as thick as a water bucket swam by the door. The white python was covered in black and silver armor. The Thousand Sun Sect even sent a War Behemoth Double Horn Dragon to lock down this place.
"It's over … it's over …"
Zhang Shilong had a bitter expression. After checking for a long time, he didn't find anything. He could only smile bitterly at Lu Sheng from afar.
"Elder Zhang, we'll have to rely on you and Junior Apprentice Brother Lu in the future." One of the armored men cupped his fists at Zhang Shilong.
"Sect Leader … I …" Zhang Shilong wanted to cry. He didn't expect to escape in the end.
"What's going on!!?" If he hadn't heard their conversation loud and clear, Lu Sheng would have thought that his identity had been exposed.
"It's … a long story," Zhang Shilong said helplessly.
Sect Leader Chen took a step forward and said loudly, "Let me tell you myself." Sect Leader Wan, who was beside him, had already started pulling out chains made of green light, locking down the entire area.
"If I'm not wrong, Junior Brother Lu's master should be the one who joined the Thousand Sun Sect because of an accident, according to the legends."
"That one?" Lu Sheng was speechless. Could they not keep him in suspense?
