Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Ten Swords’ Constitution Test
Especially some of the female disciples here, seeing a few of the Ten Swords looking quite handsome, were shy yet eager to make conversation, chiming in one after another.
As for the male disciples, over this period they had noticed Zhuge Wushuang and others’ attitude towards Yang Yan, so naturally, no one dared to entertain any wild thoughts.
"Elder Dugu, these space transmission arrays and guardian barriers are truly profound and boundless!"
Yang Yan turned to Elder Dugu in admiration after pondering over the teleportation arrays and protective barriers on his own.
"Indeed! These teleportation arrays and guardian barriers are quite extraordinary! However, given your insight, Saint Son, I believe you have already gained quite a bit."
Elder Dugu stroked his beard meaningfully as he spoke.
Yang Yan waved his hand modestly and said:
"Compared to Elder Dugu, I’ve merely glimpsed their forms, nothing to speak of. In the future, I intend to seek your guidance, hoping Elder Dugu won’t withhold it!"
Elder Dugu was quite pleased with Yang Yan’s humility and eagerness to learn, he clapped his hands and said cheerfully: "Very good! Ask anything and Dugu will surely share all knowledge without reservation! Hahaha!"
Soon after, Yang Yan and the others had passed through layers of guardian barriers and returned to the Ancient Abyss Sect on Wandering Dragon Star.
"We’ve returned to the sect. I’ll take Yang Yan and the Ten Swords to see the Sect Leader; the rest of you are dismissed to do as you please." Elder Dugu instructed everyone after securing the Wandering Dragon Boat.
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison and began to disperse.
"Dad! We’re back!!"
Guo Guoguo saw Lin An from afar and began to shout.
"Guoguo, you all returned? So soon?" Lin An asked.
"Sect Leader, the connection between the Hidden World and the existing world is severed, didn’t see all my kin, only my ten subordinates."
Yang Yan took the opportunity to reveal the identity of Fu Changjian and the others in the hall.
"I’ve brought them back; they’ll be training with me in the future. Moreover, Elder Dugu said their aptitude is exceptional, it won’t be a loss to the sect."
Lin An laughed heartily: "What a jest from Saint Son, when has the Ancient Abyss Sect ever been stingy about raising a few more people? And since they’re under Saint Son, even if they’re not sect disciples, staying at Ancient Abyss is no problem."
Elder Dugu evidently anticipated Lin An’s reaction; he flashed a fox-like smile and suggested in a lowered voice.
"I think we can have them tested for their constitution. If they’re above Spirit Body, why not let them join our Ancient Abyss Sect as disciples, hmm?"
Yang Yan smiled slightly and quickly glanced at the Ten Swords: "That would be up to them. I can’t decide for them."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Yan spoke, there was no need for anyone else to reply, as Fu Changjian already said solemnly:
"We will follow orders. Besides, we’re curious about our own constitutions."
Fu Changjian spoke while cupping his fists toward Yang Yan, Sect Leader Lin An, and Elder Dugu.
The other nine behind him also nodded in agreement.
Clearly, the Ten Swords had reached a consensus on this matter long ago.
"Haha! This is certainly excellent," Sect Leader Lin An said in agreement.
"So, who will go first?"
Elder Dugu smiled broadly as he addressed the ten people before him.
"I’ll go first!"
Jing Hong stepped forward to begin the first test.
Elder Dugu nodded, gesturing to the black stone tablet nearby, "Jing Hong, right? Just place your hand in the groove on the stone tablet in front of you."
Jing Hong wasted no time and placed his hand into the groove.
Immediately, the tablet trembled slightly, a dazzling light burst forth.
"Haha, very good, very good! It’s an Upper Dao Body! Rare indeed, truly rare!"
Elder Dugu excitedly revealed Jing Hong’s constitution, nodding with great satisfaction.
He felt like fortune was smiling upon him!
Encountering Yang Yan with a Sacred Body was remarkable enough, but now testing revealed an Upper Dao Body, leaving him utterly delighted.
At this moment, he was quite eager to see what surprises the remaining nine people might bring him.
Gazing at the next few individuals, Elder Dugu nodded repeatedly, his old face breaking into a wrinkled smile.
"Wow! Jing Hong is so impressive; a Dao Body shouldn’t be mediocre, but didn’t expect it to be an Upper Dao Body, just a notch below the Sacred Body!" Zhuge Wushuang remarked with envy.
"Yes! Indeed, I’m quite curious about my own constitution!"
Gongsun Ruyan nodded repeatedly, somewhat unconsciously clutching her hands at her chest.
Zhuge Wushuang cast a meaningful glance at her, didn’t point it out, only smiled slightly.
"Alright! Well done! Second one!" Elder Dugu began the second test.
"Me!"
Frost Heaven was also eager to find out his constitution.
Upon reaching the Ancient Abyss Sect, the previously proud Ten Swords truly realized that their strength in this world was far from enough.
Before, they had a vague understanding that different constitutions often dictate one’s future potential.
Thus, everyone was keenly hopeful of having a favorable constitution, ensuring future cultivation would be twice as effective with half the effort.
Frost Heaven nervously placed his hand into the groove, feeling as if awaiting judgment, hesitant to watch the black stone tablet’s reaction.
"Upper Dao Body!!"
Elder Dugu’s voice trembled slightly.
Evidently, two consecutive Upper Dao Bodies had thoroughly excited him.
Therefore, his gaze upon the remaining Eight Swords was filled with deep hope.
"Wow! Another Upper Dao Body!! Amazing!"
Seeing someone testing at the platform, many disciples had already gathered to watch.
Just now, an Upper Dao Body had strongly impressed them.
Now, there was another Upper Dao Body, everyone couldn’t help but gasp in surprise.
Could they not be astonished?
Consider that the Ancient Abyss Sect was merely a seventh-rate sect, yet attaining a Sacred Body made the whole Wandering Dragon Star take notice.
But now, two more Upper Dao Bodies have arrived.
Looks like the Ancient Abyss Sect is truly poised to soar to greater heights this time.
"Wow haha! I’m also an Upper Dao Body!" Frost Heaven couldn’t contain his satisfaction with the result, bursting into laughter.
"Hmm, not bad! Not bad! Work hard, your prospects will surely be immeasurable."
Elder Dugu seemingly casually nodded to encourage them, though his heart was already brimming with joy.
Truly the heavens bless the Ancient Abyss Sect!
Haha!
One Sacred Body, and now two Upper Dao Bodies.
Crucially, there under Yang Yan are altogether Ten Swords, with only two tested so far, both Upper Dao Bodies.
What then about the remaining eight?
Perhaps there’s even bigger surprise awaiting.
Or taking a step back, even if it’s slightly less favorable, at least two or three more are not out of question!
With such thoughts, Elder Dugu impatiently said: "Next!"
