Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 170 Golden Core Instruction from Master Kushi (Please Subscribe!)
Those who are destined to become immortals and participate in the entrance examination of the Ancient Desolate Sect have only twelve hours to climb Flying Immortal Peak and forty-eight hours to comprehend the cultivation techniques.

If you fail to reach the summit of Feixian Peak within twelve hours, you will be eliminated.

If one fails to comprehend the cultivation technique within forty-eight hours, one can only become the lowest-ranking menial disciple of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

Of course, if the quality of the cultivation technique one comprehends is too poor, even if one succeeds in comprehending it, one will be reduced to a menial disciple.

After entering the area where the cultivation technique was located, Lu Chengfeng had not yet selected a suitable technique.

He was quite surprised to see Lu Chengyue reach the top of Feixian Peak so quickly.

However, he did not communicate with Lu Chengyue, but continued to select cultivation techniques.

The area at the top of Feixian Peak where the cultivation techniques are located is not a collection of ancient texts or jade slips, but a special field. As long as you carefully sense it, you can feel the cultivation method of a certain technique.

After entering that area, Lu Chengyue sat cross-legged as taught by the ancient sect cultivators and began to carefully sense the location of the cultivation technique.

A quarter of an hour later, a cultivation technique appeared in Lu Chengyue's mind. It was a cultivation technique called the Spring and Autumn Scripture. This technique had a low upper limit, and could only be cultivated up to the Foundation Establishment Perfection realm.

If one can successfully master this cultivation technique, one can become an outer disciple of the Ancient Desolate Sect.

Lu Chengyue knew that her talent for cultivation was not high, and the elders in her clan said that the chances of her breaking through to the Golden Core realm were extremely slim.

She didn't know if she was lucky or not, but she didn't dare to gamble on her luck. She was already very satisfied to have chosen this Spring and Autumn Scripture that could be cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Therefore, Lu Chengyue did not choose any other cultivation methods. After carefully studying the cultivation method of the Spring and Autumn Annals, she firmly memorized the cultivation method of this text.

She then left the area where she was studying the cultivation technique and began to study the Spring and Autumn Scripture in other areas of Flying Immortal Peak, striving to master the technique as soon as possible and successfully become an outer disciple of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

"Chengyue, you've already chosen your cultivation method so quickly!" Lu Chengfeng exclaimed in surprise when he saw that Lu Chengyue had chosen her cultivation method so quickly.

Lu Chengyue glanced back at Lu Chengfeng, paused for a moment, and then kindly advised, "Brother Chengfeng, you should be careful not to waste too much time choosing a cultivation technique!"

She didn't know when Lu Chengfeng reached the top of Feixian Peak, but according to her family elders, Lu Chengfeng's talent for cultivation was much better than hers.

Moreover, when she reached the summit of Feixian Peak, Lu Chengfeng had already reached the summit before her, so Lu Chengfeng must have spent a lot of time choosing a cultivation technique.

Choosing a cultivation method is secondary; the most important thing is to successfully master the basics of the method.

If the chosen cultivation method is suitable for becoming an outer disciple, then finalize it as soon as possible.

If you don't have enough time to comprehend the cultivation technique and end up as a mere paper-writing disciple, it will be too late to regret it then.

This was Lu Chengyue's inner thought. She didn't try to persuade Lu Chengfeng too much. After leaving those words, she didn't look at Lu Chengfeng's reaction and quickly chose an unused area to begin studying the Spring and Autumn Annals she had chosen.

This was the first cultivation technique Lu Chengyue saw in the area where the technique was located, which meant that she had a connection with it. Moreover, when she was studying the cultivation method of this technique, she found it to be very easy to understand. She was confident that she could master the basics of this technique within forty-eight hours.

While Lu Chengyue was focused on comprehending the cultivation technique, Lu Chengfeng did not heed her advice and continued to choose cultivation techniques.

After another two hours of delay, Lu Chengfeng finally chose to cultivate a technique called the Profound Dust True Scripture.

This is a third-tier cultivation technique. The complete technique can be cultivated to the Golden Core Perfection realm.

The Mysterious Dust Scripture is undoubtedly a superior cultivation technique, but such techniques are also quite difficult to master.

When choosing to cultivate immortality, Lu Chengfeng and other aspiring cultivators need to carefully consider their options. If they fail to comprehend the cultivation method within the stipulated time, they can only become menial disciples of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

Lu Chengyue did not know what kind of cultivation method Lu Chengfeng had chosen. After immersing herself in studying it for thirty-nine hours, she finally succeeded in comprehending the Spring and Autumn Annals.

He then used the Spring and Autumn Scripture to refine a wisp of spiritual energy from the top of Flying Immortal Peak, transforming it into his first wisp of magical power, and successfully became a cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining.

At that moment, a cyan-green spiritual light emerged from the top of Feixian Peak, enveloping Lu Chengyue's body and instantly carrying him away from the peak.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

Before Lu Chengyue could react, she heard a voice beside her. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man with white hair and beard standing in front of her.

"Lu Chengyue greets Senior!" Lu Chengyue bowed respectfully to the old man and immediately introduced himself.

"I am the Venerable Kushi of the Ancient Peak. Would you be willing to become my disciple?" Venerable Kushi asked with a smile.

"Disciple greets Master!" Lu Chengyue was extremely excited, but she quickly recovered and knelt down in front of Master Kushi.

Before Lu Chengyue and Lu Chengfeng arrived at the Desolate Ancient Sect, Lu Chengping taught them a lot of common knowledge about the cultivation world, such as that only Golden Core cultivators could be called True Persons.

Lu Chengyue didn't know what kind of identity the old man who wanted to take her as his disciple had in the Desolate Ancient Sect, but since he called himself a True Person, he must be a Golden Core cultivator.

Her talent was quite ordinary. The only reason why Master Kushi chose to take her as his disciple must be because of the cultivation technique she practiced, the Spring and Autumn Scripture.

In that instant, Lu Chengyue thought of many things!

"Good, as expected of the disciple I have chosen, he is indeed to my liking!" After seeing Lu Chengyue's reaction, Master Kushi was even more satisfied with Lu Chengyue.

He laughed loudly and unleashed a burst of energy, instantly lifting Lu Chengyue up from the ground.

Then, the clouds surged beneath his feet, enveloping Lu Chengyue's body, and he carried Lu Chengyue toward Suigu Peak.

Congratulations, senior brother, on accepting your beloved disciple!

"Respectfully seeing off Senior Brother!"

There were many Golden Core cultivators from the Ancient Desolate Sect around Master Kushi. After seeing that Master Kushi had accepted Lu Chengyue as his disciple, they immediately congratulated him.

Even though Master Kushi ignored them, they did not feel that Master Kushi was arrogant at all. After Master Kushi left, they respectfully saw him off.

This is because Master Kushi came from Suigu Peak, and was the number one Golden Core cultivator on Suigu Peak!
The Ancient Desolate Sect has two main peaks: Great Desolate Peak and Ancient Year Peak. These two peaks are named after two fourth-tier cultivation techniques of the Ancient Desolate Sect. The cultivation technique practiced on Ancient Year Peak is mainly derived from the fourth-tier cultivation technique, Ancient Year True Scripture!

The cultivation technique Lu Chengyue practiced, the Spring and Autumn Scripture, was derived from the Ancient True Scripture. Back then, when True Man Kushi was in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, he also practiced the Spring and Autumn Scripture.

Although Suigu Peak is one of the two main peaks of the Desolate Ancient Sect, there are not many cultivators on Suigu Peak.

Because the cultivation difficulty of the Sui Gu True Scripture is too high, even the second and third-level techniques derived from the Sui Gu True Scripture are still extremely difficult to cultivate.

Master Kushi witnessed Lu Chengyue's performance in the sect entrance examination and was very satisfied with her. In addition, Lu Chengyue successfully mastered the Spring and Autumn Scripture, which led Master Kushi to directly accept Lu Chengyue as his disciple.

After Lu Chengyue was taken away by Master Kushi, Lu Chengfeng continued to study the cultivation methods of the Xuanchen True Scripture on Feixian Peak.

However, Lu Chengfeng clearly overestimated his comprehension and compatibility with the Xuan Chen True Scripture. Forty-eight hours after he ascended Feixian Peak, he still failed to master the Xuan Chen True Scripture.

Forty-eight hours after he ascended Flying Immortal Peak, he was immediately escorted away by cultivators from the Ancient Desolate Sect.

However, his treatment was naturally different from Lu Chengyue's. He was directly sent to the Miscellaneous Service Peak of the Desolate Ancient Sect for training, and for a long time to come, he would be a miscellaneous servant of the Desolate Ancient Sect.

The servant disciples of the Desolate Ancient Sect have a very low status. They have to do a lot of chores and have very little time to cultivate. Moreover, they have to find their own ways to obtain the various resources needed for cultivation.

Of course, even menial disciples are not without avenues for advancement.

If one's cultivation level can be improved rapidly, or if one demonstrates other outstanding talents, one can be promoted to become an outer disciple.

Lu Chengfeng's temperament was not very good. After learning that he could only become a menial disciple of the Desolate Ancient Sect, he broke down hard.

At the same time, he also searched for Lu Chengyue among the miscellaneous disciples, since according to the elders of the clan, Lu Chengyue's talent for cultivation was much worse than his.

If he has become a menial disciple of the Desolate Ancient Sect, then Lu Chengyue is also very likely to become a menial disciple as well.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find Lu Chengyue among the miscellaneous disciples of the Desolate Ancient Sect. After that, he had no free time and directly began his training as a miscellaneous disciple.

Lu Chengyue and Lu Chengfeng received completely opposite treatment. After being brought to Suigu Peak by Master Kushi, she was personally taught the rules of the Huanggu Sect and Suigu Peak by Master Kushi's other disciples.

Although Lu Chengyue has been accepted as a disciple by Master Kushi, the apprenticeship ceremony will not be held now. It will be held later along with the apprenticeship ceremonies accepted by other Golden Core cultivators.

Lu Chengyue's personality was very likable, and she quickly became familiar with the other disciples of Master Kushi and was allowed to return to the Desolate Ancient Immortal City.

She wanted to return to the Desolate Ancient Immortal City, so naturally she had to tell Lu Wenhua about her situation, which was something Lu Chengping had instructed them to do before.

If they successfully enter the Ancient Desolate Sect, they should try their best to contact Lu Chengping.

After all, Lu Chengyue and Lu Chengfeng came from the Lu family, a family of cultivators. After they successfully entered the Desolate Ancient Sect, the family would provide them with certain resources and support.

Lu Chengyue returned to the Desolate Ancient Immortal City with the disciples of Master Kushi. She quickly found Lu Chengping, who was waiting for her and Lu Chengfeng in the Desolate Ancient Immortal City.

"Fifth Senior Brother, this is Lu Chengping, an elder of my family!"

"Brother Chengping, this is my senior brother Liu Muyang from the Desolate Ancient Sect."

Upon seeing Lu Chengping, Lu Chengyue's face immediately lit up with a pleasant smile, and she promptly introduced Lu Chengping and Liu Muyang to each other.

Liu Muyang is the fifth disciple of Master Kushi. He was originally Master Kushi's youngest disciple, and he was twenty-eight years old with a cultivation level in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

After Lu Chengyue was accepted as a disciple by Master Kushi, she became Master Kushi's sixth disciple, and she also replaced Liu Muyun as Master Kushi's youngest disciple.

Lu Chengping was extremely shocked. Liu Muyang's cultivation was a level higher than his. Lu Chengyue had just entered the Desolate Ancient Sect and already addressed a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator like Liu Muyang as his senior brother, which clearly indicated that he had received a great opportunity.

"Lu Chengping greets Fellow Daoist Liu!" After suppressing his surprise, Lu Chengping immediately cupped his hands and said.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, there's no need to be so polite. Cheng Yue has already been accepted as a personal disciple by my master. She is my junior sister."

After explaining with a smile, Liu Muyun said gently to Lu Chengyue, "Junior Sister, please take care of whatever matters you have as soon as possible. We cannot stay in the Desolate Ancient Immortal City for too long; we need to return to the sect as soon as possible!"

"Fifth Senior Brother, don't worry, I'll get it done quickly!" Lu Chengyue said with a smile.

After greeting Liu Muyun, Lu Chengping took Lu Chengyue elsewhere and then immediately began to inquire about the situation of Lu Chengyue and Lu Chengfeng.

"I reached the summit of Feixian Peak a little later than Brother Chengfeng, but... I have now joined Suigu Peak and become the youngest disciple of Master Kushi."

I haven't seen Chengfeng yet, and I don't know his current situation.

Lu Chengyue quickly told Lu Chengping about her and Lu Chengfeng's situation in detail.

Lu Chengping thought about it carefully for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "Chengfeng's chances of becoming an outer disciple are slim. He is very likely to become a menial disciple."

Now that you have been accepted as a personal disciple by Master Kushi, if Chengfeng encounters trouble in the Desolate Ancient Sect, help him if you can, and don't help him if you can't. You must not let Chengfeng cause you any trouble.

These are cultivation resources prepared by the clan for you and Chengfeng, enough for you to cultivate to the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining. If you plan to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm in the future, you can contact the clan, and they will support you in purchasing Foundation Establishment spiritual items!

This was the result of a joint discussion among several Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Lu family. These family disciples who were sent to the Desolate Ancient Sect maintained contact with their families, including their relatives who remained in the clan and the resources and support provided by the family.

Even though Lu Chengyue is now a disciple of the Golden Core True Person of the Desolate Ancient Sect and may not lack cultivation resources in the future, the family's attitude still needs to be expressed.

As for how Lu Chengyue and Lu Chengfeng will get along in the Desolate Ancient Sect, that's Lu Chengping's personal opinion.

However, he felt that his decision was absolutely correct.

Lu Chengyue has already become a disciple of Master Kushi, and the Lu family has achieved its goal of sending a younger generation of the clan into the Desolate Ancient Sect.

Lu Chengfeng must not affect Lu Chengyue's development in the Desolate Ancient Sect under any circumstances. If Lu Chengfeng becomes a burden to Lu Chengyue in the Desolate Ancient Sect, then Lu Chengyue can completely disregard the feelings of her clan!
