Su Yuanyuan said in a low voice, a hint of excitement flashing in her eyes. She had finally taken another step closer to cultivating immortality.

They pushed open the door and went inside. The shop was simply furnished, but it contained some unusual items, such as strange stones, talismans, and magical artifacts.

"welcome."

A voice came from behind the counter. Su Yuanyuan and Sebastian looked up and saw a middle-aged man in a blue robe standing behind the counter with a kind smile on his face.

"Hello, we're just passing by and would like to ask about the cultivators in this world."

Su Yuanyuan stepped forward and asked him politely and respectfully. It's never wrong to be polite. Since she was so respectful, the boss would surely tell her some information, right?

"Oh? You are cultivators?"

The middle-aged man glanced at them, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"No, we're just very interested in the world of cultivation."

Sebastian continued, "We've heard that the demons in this world are rampant, and we'd like to know how cultivators deal with them."

"I see."

The middle-aged man nodded. "The cultivators in this world are indeed relatively low-key because we have our own rules and don't want to interfere too much with the mortal world. However, demons are active frequently, and we have been trying to find ways to deal with them."

"So how did you deal with it?" Su Yuanyuan asked curiously.

"We will set up formations in some key locations to prevent demons from invading. At the same time, some cultivators will be secretly protecting towns and villages."

The middle-aged man glanced at her and explained, "However, there are too many demons, and it's difficult for us to completely stop their attacks."

"I see."

Su Yuanyuan nodded, recalling the town where she woke up, mainly because the people there had died rather tragically, and she couldn't help but ask.

"Do you know what happened to that destroyed town?"

The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly. "Are you talking about the town that was attacked by demons? We're investigating that too, but we don't have any leads yet."

"Have you noticed anything unusual?" Su Yuanyuan continued to press.

"Not yet, but we will continue our investigation," the middle-aged man said. "If you have any leads, you can tell us; it might be of some help."

"Okay, we'll keep an eye on it."

Su Yuanyuan nodded and left the shop with Sebastian. Sebastian only spoke after they had gone some distance.

Why not ask him how to become an apprentice?

Su Yuanyuan pursed her lips. It was obvious that the person just now wouldn't tell them, so asking would be pointless. Why should she make a fool of herself?

"We'll find it ourselves. Anyway, we can see spiritual energy, so we'll just look for the place with the densest spiritual energy."

Without further ado, Su Yuanyuan and the others checked out of their room and went to the woods outside the city. There were fewer people and more spiritual energy there, making it easier to sense things.

Su Yuanyuan closed her eyes and began to sense the flow of spiritual energy around her. Having been exposed to spiritual energy before, she could clearly feel the fluctuations.

"there!"

Su Yuanyuan opened her eyes and looked towards the north side of the forest. The further she went, the denser the spiritual energy became.

The two walked together in that direction, where there was a dense forest, and deep within the forest seemed to emanate a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation.

Su Yuanyuan and Sebastian entered the forest, where a path appeared ahead, a path worn smooth by human footsteps.

They walked for almost two days and finally came to an open area. Here, the fluctuations of spiritual energy were more obvious, but they couldn't see anything around them.

"The spiritual energy here is the most concentrated, but it may be isolated by a barrier."

Su Yuanyuan frowned. Since she couldn't find the entrance, she could only wait here for people to come out. She couldn't just rashly break the barrier.

Sebastian nodded, looked around, and found a wooden sign in the bushes with the three large characters "Qingyun Sect" written on it.

It seemed there really was a cultivation sect here. Su Yuanyuan glanced at the open space again and decided to take out her tent and stay there. She didn't believe that the people from the sect would never come out.

They settled down here in peace. Su Yuanyuan would sit outside every day, staring blankly at the open space. When she had nothing to do, she would take out a book and lean against a tree to read.

Su Yuanyuan has a very stable mindset. Sometimes she can watch for a whole day without feeling anxious. Ever since she transmigrated, she has been waiting for the world of cultivation.

Now that she's already here, she can wait a few more days or even a few years; she has plenty of time.

"You've come to become my disciples?"

A voice came from ahead. Su Yuanyuan and Sebastian looked up and saw a young disciple in a blue robe standing there with a curious expression on his face.

Behind him, an ancient-style gate appeared out of nowhere. Su Yuanyuan thought to herself, "Finally, someone has come out. I've been waiting for almost a month."

"Yes, we want to join the Qingyun Sect to study."

Su Yuanyuan put down her book, stood up, and answered with a warm smile, her eyes occasionally glancing at the door behind him.

The young disciple glanced at them, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. These were the people with perseverance the sect leader had mentioned? He remained silent for a moment before nodding.

"Come with me, the sect leader is waiting for you."

They followed the young disciples into the Qingyun Sect, passing through rows of ancient buildings, and finally arrived at a grand hall.

Inside the main hall, a middle-aged man sat in the main seat, wearing a blue robe and a kind smile on his face, looking at Su Yuanyuan as she entered.

"Qingshi, you may leave now."

The middle-aged man smiled and spoke to the young disciple who had brought them in. Qing Shi bowed respectfully before leaving, and then looked at Su Yuanyuan.

"I am the sect leader of Qingyun Sect. You can call me Qingyun Zhenren."

"I've met the sect leader."

Su Yuanyuan quickly followed Qing Shi's example and bowed. After all, this might be her future teacher, so she had to be polite.

“I already know why you came here, and I have been observing you for a long time. With your talent, you are qualified to become my disciple, but he is not suitable for the Qingyun Sect.”

Master Qingyun nodded in satisfaction as he looked at Su Yuanyuan. He had noticed her as soon as they approached the mountain gate; this woman possessed extraordinary perseverance and excellent physical constitution.

He certainly wouldn't mind taking on such a disciple, but the other man's aptitude wasn't suitable for the Qingyun Sect. Judging from his aura, Master Qingyun felt that he was more suited to cultivating demonic arts, but he wouldn't say it aloud.

Su Yuanyuan and Sebastian exchanged a glance. They had thought about this question before. Based on Su Yuanyuan's understanding from reading novels, Sebastian was simply incapable of cultivating immortality.

Fortunately, he didn't care too much about these things. Sebastian felt that he was fine as he was now, and there was still room for promotion in the future, so he could wait patiently.

"Thank you, Master Qingyun. It's enough for her to join the immortal sect on her own."

Sebastian bowed respectfully to Master Qingyun and replied. Master Qingyun nodded in satisfaction and then looked at Su Yuanyuan.

"In that case, you will be my disciple from now on, and your name will be Qinglan."
