"Yun Fan, why are you in a daze again?"
Fatty nudged Yun Fan lightly and said with a yearning look, "Did you hear that? The inner sect disciple promotion ceremony is about to begin. It would be great if I could participate. Furthermore, the Spirit Spring of Flame will erupt again this year! "
Fatty continued to talk to himself, showing off, "Did you know that the Spirit Spring of Flame will only erupt once every five years? It is extremely helpful for late-stage Illuminating Pulse cultivators to break through to the Origin Opening Realm. With the help of this treasure, the 'Spirit Spring of Flame' will be much stronger than ordinary cultivators!"
Yun Fan rolled his eyes at him. "You really know a lot … but what does this have to do with you?" The fatty's cultivation was also only at the initial stage of the Meridian Opening realm. It was impossible for him to participate in the ceremony.
Fatty's face turned red, "Your Brother Hu is telling you so that you can broaden your horizons! Hmph, you don't know how to appreciate my kindness! "
Soon after, the fatty solemnly vowed, "Just you wait and see. In the next five years, your Brother Hu will definitely experience the taste of the Spirit Spring of Blazing Flame!"
Fatty had an extremely famous name: Yan Hu. He was about the same age as Yun Fan but liked to call himself 'Brother Hu'. However, Yun Fan only called him Fatty.
"Hehe."
Yun Fan didn't care about Yan Hu at all. He just stood up and left.
Yan Hu chased after him and said, "Hmph, I think you will never have the chance to be promoted to an inner sect disciple in this lifetime. Your Brother Hu will be promoted to an inner sect disciple in five years. Call me Brother Hu now and I will protect you when the time comes!"
Yun Fan stopped and turned to look at Yan Hu. He placed his right hand on Yan Hu's fat shoulder and said seriously, "Fatty, seeing that you have helped me these three months, I will protect you in the future. I have decided … to participate in this year's inner sect disciple promotion ceremony! "
To stand out, one must have a noble status. Therefore, Yun Fan decided to obtain the inner sect disciple status first.
In the past, Yun Fan did not have the confidence to do so. However, now that he had the Xuanhuan Reading System, he had the chance to fight for it.
At this moment, Yan Hu looked at Yun Fan as if he was looking at an idiot. He felt that his friend, who had always been talking nonsense, was sick … and very sick at that.
"Haha, everyone, come and listen. What is Yun Fan talking about? He actually said that he wants to participate in this year's inner court disciple promotion ceremony! "
A tall and thin odd-job worker, who was dressed more exquisitely than the other odd-job workers, unintentionally overheard the conversation between Yun Fan and Yun Fan. Immediately, he pointed at Yun Fan and shouted around.
The odd-job workers who were slowly walking towards their residences all stopped in their tracks when they heard this. They stood on the sidelines and watched, as if they were watching a good show.
Yun Fan knew this person. His name was Zhou Tao, and he was the odd-job worker of an inner sect disciple. Therefore, his odd-job worker uniform was much more exquisite than the other odd-job workers. Even when he met the deacon, he did not have to bow.
This Zhou Tao relied on his identity as an odd-job worker to make a name for himself in the odd-job workers' office. The new odd-job workers had to pay a tribute regularly, which was called 'protection fee'.
Zhou Tao had also threatened Yun Fan before, but Yun Fan had always ignored him. Therefore, Zhou Tao always wanted to find an opportunity to teach this newcomer, who did not know the rules, a lesson.
Hearing Zhou Tao's loud yelling, the lackeys behind him all cooperated with him and laughed in a weird way.
Yun Fan knew that Zhou Tao did not come with good intentions. This guy relied on the fact that he had the support of an inner sect disciple and was used to being arrogant and domineering. In addition, he did not pay the 'protection fee'. In Zhou Tao's eyes, he was already a target to deal with.
Since this was the case, he would fight to the end and see who would have the last laugh.
Yun Fan made up his mind and looked calmly at Zhou Tao. "I did say that I want to participate in this year's inner sect disciple promotion ceremony. Why? Can't I participate?"
According to the sect's rules, everyone below the inner sect disciple level could participate in the promotion ceremony. There was only one condition for becoming an inner sect disciple: cultivation base at the Origin Opening Realm.
Cultivators at the peak of the Meridian Opening Realm could compress their Spirit Qi into Spirit Liquid and open up a Spirit Qi source in their dantian. This was the Origin Opening Realm!
Currently, the known major realms of the human race were: Meridian Opening Realm, Origin Opening Realm, Four Symbols Realm, Yin Yang Realm, Heaven Realm, Heavenly Venerate Realm, and Emperor Of Heaven Realm.
As for whether there were higher realms after the Emperor Of Heaven Realm, it was not something they could know. After all, in the long history of the Primordial Chaos Continent, no one in the human race had been able to break through to the Emperor Of Heaven Realm.
According to the Fire Spirit Sect's rules, any disciple whose cultivation base reached the Origin Opening Realm could be promoted to an inner sect disciple.
Outer sect disciples who reached the Origin Opening Realm in this year could all be promoted to an inner sect disciple on the day of the promotion ceremony.
However, those who chose this method of promotion were all people with mediocre talent. It would be very difficult for them to increase their cultivation base in this lifetime.
True prodigies would choose another method of promotion!
It was to compress their cultivation base and control the Spirit Qi in their body to not liquefy it for the time being. Only on the day of the promotion ceremony would they open up a Spirit Qi source and absorb the Spirit Qi tide released by the sect's Elders. With the help of the majestic Spirit Qi, they would open up an even stronger Spirit Qi source in their body!
Spirit Qi sources were divided into four types: Spirit Spring, Spirit Stream, Spirit River, and Spirit Sea.
The higher the level of the Spirit Spring, the stronger the cultivator's strength and the more stable their foundation. It would be of great help to breaking through to the Four Symbols Realm in the future.
Ordinary cultivators could at most open up a Spirit Stream with their own strength.
With the help of the Elders' Spirit Qi tide, cultivators with high talent would have the chance to open up a Spirit River!
A Spirit River could store more than ten times more Spirit Qi than a Spirit Stream. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
There was one last method of promotion, and it was also a method that only true prodigies would choose: the Spirit Spring of Flame that erupted once every five years.
In the Fire Spirit Sect, there was a Spirit Spring that would erupt once every five years — the Spirit Spring of Flame. To the Fire Spirit Sect, which cultivated fire-attribute cultivation techniques, this was simply a priceless treasure.
When the Spirit Spring of Flame erupted, it would also erupt with a shocking amount of Spirit Qi. The density and intensity of the Spirit Qi was so high that cultivators below the late-stage of the Meridian Opening Realm would be instantly vaporized if they came within a thousand feet of the Spirit Spring! And cultivators below the Origin Opening Realm would also be severely injured if they were to make the slightest mistake.
High risk also meant high reward. Some prodigies who could withstand the impact of the Spirit Spring of Flame would use the power of the Spirit Spring to open up the strongest Spirit Qi source — the Spirit Sea!
The Spirit Sea was ten times stronger than the Spirit River. One could imagine how terrifying the cultivator who opened up the Spirit Sea was.
"I, Yun Fan, want to participate in this year's promotion ceremony and open up the Spirit Sea in my body!" Yun Fan's calm voice reverberated in the surroundings.
"This Yun Fan is really crazy!"
"A servant actually dares to have such wishful thinking …"
"Even if he wants to die, he doesn't need to be so high-profile …"
"Haha, he still wants to open up the Spirit Sea? With his cultivation, he will be instantly vaporized if he comes within a thousand feet of the Spirit Spring of Flame!"
Everyone was talking at once and mocking Yun Fan. They all looked at him as if he was an idiot.
Yan Hu, who was at the side, waved his chubby hands again and argued loudly, "Don't look at me, I don't know this madman!"
Zhou Tao looked at the serious Yun Fan and laughed until his stomach hurt. He even laughed until tears came out of his eyes. He held back his laughter and gave Yun Fan a thumbs up.
"Good, good, good. As long as you dare to participate in this promotion ceremony, not to mention opening up the Spirit Sea, even if you open up the Spirit Stream, I, Zhou Tao, am willing to strip naked and perform a handstand in front of everyone!"
Yun Fan frowned. This Zhou Tao obviously did not believe that he could successfully advance. He was mocking him in front of everyone.
Yun Fan also lost his temper and became competitive. He coldly snorted and said, "If you don't believe me, let's bet ten thousand Spirit Stones. How about it?"
"Okay! Let's bet! "
Zhou Tao agreed without hesitation. Although the bet was ten thousand Spirit Stones, which could be exchanged for a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique in the Hidden Skills Pavilion, Zhou Tao did not believe that Yun Fan could win.
Moreover, he added, "If you win, not only will I pay ten thousand Spirit Stones, I will also do a handstand in front of you!"
"Are you serious?"
"Of course!"
Zhou Tao proudly said, "Why don't you ask around? I, Zhou Tao, am a nail in this servant office!"
