Chapter 358: Chapter 238: Cultivation World 28_2
They returned to their original residence and encountered many people trying to curry favor with them.
Some even asked for their help to see if they could become Inner Sect Disciples of Thousand Layer Peak.
In the vast Thousand Layer Peak, there isn’t a single Inner Sect Disciple.
There is only the Peak Master and a Direct Disciple.
And one Steward, not even a servant disciple.
If someone were to become an Inner Sect Disciple of Thousand Layer Peak, the resources would definitely be better than other peaks, where there’s heavy competition for resources due to the many people.
Chang Cong’an, the servant disciple returning, is even envied by the Outer Peak’s Steward.
It’s hard to understand how a Qi Refining disciple with Five Spirit Roots caught the eye of a True Monarch of Out-of-Body.
The six naturally did not agree; they packed their things and returned to Thousand Layer Peak.
The next day, the six arrived punctually at the entrance of Si Lingle’s cave mansion.
Si Lingle came out from the cave mansion.
First, he tested the spirit root talent of the six.
Tan Jinxia: Metal (82) Earth (78) Water (63) Three Spirit Roots, Late-stage Golden Core.
Wei Chenxiao: Metal (84) Earth (81) Dual Spirit Roots, Golden Core Middle Stage.
Xie Lan: Metal (80) Fire (74) Dual Spirit Roots, Golden Core Early Stage.
Yu Qiuyao: Water (76) Earth (70) Wood (61) Three Spirit Roots, Late-stage Foundation Establishment.
Xu Xian: Single Fire Spirit Root (91), Early-stage Foundation Establishment.
Chang Cong’an: Metal (52) Wood (50) Water (53) Fire (60) Earth (56) Five Spirit Roots, Qi Refining Fifth Level.
The youngest is Xu Xian, just turned sixteen, he established his Foundation at fifteen.
Chang Cong’an is twenty-one, not considered old either.
The eldest is Tan Jinxia; however, her cultivation is also the highest, making her suitable to be the senior sister.
After testing their talents, Si Lingle took their pulses for examination.
"Here is a Body Refining Technique, all of you cultivate it. As for the Body Refining Medicine Bath, I will prepare it for you."
"Spend one hour every day on body refinement."
"Each of you has a different primary focus, so arrange the rest of your time on your own."
"If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can always ask me."
"Although your primary focuses are different, I hope you all can learn about Arrays."
"Many Ancient Cultivation Cave Mansions and treasures have Array restrictions; if you understand Arrays, your opportunities could increase."
"Among you six, is there anyone who knows nothing about Arrays?" Si Lingle asked looking at the six.
Chang Cong’an cupped his hands and said, "Disciple knows only a little about Arrays, not much."
"You were a servant before, burdened with heavy tasks and no time for outside learning; I understand."
"You still have intelligence, and now you won’t be delayed by tasks, so it’s not too late to learn now."
"Later on, I will test your knowledge of Arrays and arrange further Array learning for you."
"By the way, Jinxia and you three are already in the Golden Core stage but have no Taoist Names; I will bestow you your Taoist Names."
"Tan Jinxia’s Taoist Name will be Xuanjing, symbolizing steadiness, depth of wisdom, and responsibility, which is what I’ve seen in you."
"Even though you are the senior sister, you shouldn’t bear too much burden and pressure. I hope you can be calm and diligently cultivate, finding your own path in cultivation."
"Xuanjing thanks the teacher for the bestowed Taoist Name." Xuanjing cupped her hands.
"Wei Chenxiao’s Taoist Name will be Ruochen, hoping you maintain humility without losing resilience, remaining indifferently compassionate."
"Ruochen thanks the teacher for the bestowed Taoist Name."
"Xie Lan’s Taoist Name will be Yu Jin, you are calm and rational, soft yet firm. I hope you don’t care about others’ opinions, as a female in Artifact Refining, you can also outshine those with gender bias."
"Yu Jin thanks the teacher for the bestowed Taoist Name."
Then the six’s Array skills were tested, with Xuanjing having the highest skill at Upper Grade Third Rank, followed by Yu Qiuyao at Lower Grade Third Rank.
Except for Chang Cong’an, the skills of the remaining three were around the First Rank.
Si Lingle arranged different Array learning content for them, then used Earth Magic to create two pools at the cave mansion entrance.
Set an Isolation Array on the pools, then used Water Magic to fill them with water and added various spirit plant materials.
Through some Fire Magic, the Body Refining Medicine Bath Pool was ready; Si Lingle instructed the six to separate by gender and enter different pools.
After soaking in the medicine bath, all six showed improvements in their cultivation, with the most noticeable breakthrough being Chang Cong’an directly achieving Qi Refining Seventh Layer.
The spirit plant materials Si Lingle used were all hundreds of years old, containing rich spiritual energy, and paired with Body Refining Techniques, impurities were expelled from their bodies, leading to an increase in their cultivation.
