With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 290 - 250: Joining the Sect (2)

"The Longming Sect you speak of... may be one with quite profound foundations."

"The Nine-leaf Cyan Lotus Body, if it were an ordinary small sect, upon learning of it, would be eager to hide you. Yet your future senior brothers and sisters were merely pleasantly surprised. This indicates that there are no enemies within tens of thousands of miles around that the Longming Sect concerns itself with."

"You still need to be more vigilant."

"Thank you, Senior Zhu Ling." Xiang Wuji cupped his hands in salute.

Over the past year, Xiang Wuji frequently visited the Demon Blood Heart Palace, and their relationship transformed from initial stiffness to the current harmony.

Even the coldest of demons cannot endure countless years of loneliness.

"So, Senior Zhu Ling, do you have any techniques to impart next? Although I have not begun cultivating the Giant Spirit Ghost Chapter, I have comprehended almost all of it."

A trace of awkwardness appeared on Zhu Ling’s face. "I only know one move, the Giant Spirit Ghost Chapter, as I traverse the world."

"You must not underestimate the Giant Spirit Ghost Fragment."

"The term ’Fragment’ is because this technique comes from the legendary Divinity Transformation Demon Technique, the Formless Divine Court Technique."

"I won’t say much about this technique; you might come to know it in the future. If you want to conceal it, I have a method. Go search the Scripture Pavilion of the Longming Sect for a Body Refining Technique. With this technique... you can hide the Giant Spirit Ghost Chapter."

"If you unleash your full power, you might still reveal some aura, but strength is the king’s path; one must not abandon the fundamental for the minor."

Xiang Wuji’s expression remained unchanged.

Zhu Ling looked at him, as if seeing through his thoughts.

"Do you want to cultivate the techniques within the Longming Sect?"

The Giant Spirit Ghost Chapter contains some hidden dangers and is a demonic cultivation technique. Although the Longming Sect is accepting of all, its tolerance for demonic cultivation techniques is not high.

Practicing this technique within the Longming Sect is not as good as cultivating other techniques of the sect.

"Hahaha, the pursuit of greater power is natural for humans."

"However... you will come back to seek my guidance..."

Xiang Wuji’s expression finally changed.

"Why?"

"Because you possess the Undefeated Demon Blood, a top-tier aptitude, yet also a curse..."

Zhu Ling bore no trace of anger, and just had a slight smile on his lips.

"Your best destiny lies within the Demon Sect, or even as a Loose Cultivator, but definitely not in this strong and orderly major righteous sect."

"I only wish for power to save her, regardless of the process."

Xiang Wuji said coldly.

Zhu Ling was indifferent, merely smiling at him.

"I’m leaving."

[Changtian Calendar Year 11,322, January, you arrived at the Longming Sect.]

[The Longming Sect stretches for thousands of miles, filled with innumerable Immortal Palaces, where countless Immortal Beasts soar in the sky, with floating Immortal Islands suppressing everything...]

[The grandeur of the Longming Sect renders you speechless. Even with the insight provided by Zhu Ling, the vastness and majesty of the Longming Sect heavily impacted your heart.]

[The Treasure Ship flew for a long time before reaching the central area of the Longming Sect from its outermost boundary.]

[Here, all quasi-disciples selected from the Mortal Kingdoms and sect mortals with potential will be chosen.]

[Those without aptitude have been randomly assigned within the sect, beginning their role as servant disciples serving the cultivators.] 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

[You know that even if someone has aptitude but it’s too poor, they will also be demoted to Outer Disciple.]

[The selection site for disciples was packed with a sea of people.]

[From Qii Xueyuan’s words, you learned that the Longming Sect is divided into the Seventy-Two Peaks, Thirty-Six Pavilions, and 108 Dynasties, with vast expansive territories.]

[In a daze, all the Five Spirit Root disciples were allocated, and despite any special characteristics, they were not given attention by the seniors present. These Five Spirit Root disciples weren’t going to be noticed regardless.]

[In less than two hours, the Four Spirit Root disciples were also assigned to the Seventy-Two Peaks and Thirty-Six Pavilions for cultivation. All Four and Five Spirit Root disciples were automatically distributed to the Outer Sect among them.]

[Observing your surroundings, the remaining disciples are at least talented with Three Spirit Roots, and there are quite a few of them left.]

[Finally, some cultivating seniors came to begin selecting disciples with special talents among the Three Spirit Roots.

[You were recorded by Qii Xueyuan as having Martial Arts Innate Perfection, with an Innate Divine Power in your physical body, making it highly suitable for close combat attacks.]

[So you gained the attention of several Elders.]

[You were taken on by an Elder named Gao Wei as a Registered Disciple...]

Xiang Wuji merely felt a lightness in his body and soon soared skyward.

A strong-built man in a wide robe scrutinized Xiang Wuji and then nodded approvingly.

"Remarkable, remarkable, your martial arts talent is quite astonishing. If in the Mortal World, I would certainly take you as my Direct Disciple."

"But alas, this is the Cultivation Realm, where everything still depends on spiritual aptitude. Your Three Spirit Root aptitude is not bad, but your body seems to have undergone some special martial arts refining method, so it’s not considered an Innate Talent..."

"I am Gao Wei. You will be my Registered Disciple."

The strong man nodded at Xiang Wuji, his aura like an ocean or abyss, utterly unfathomable.

"If you can enter the Inner Sect, I will take you as my Entered Disciple."

Gao Wei said casually.

Xiang Wuji’s expression remained unchanged, his eyes unconsciously observing the surrounding Elders, saluting Gao Wei with clasped fists.

Yet Gao Wei furrowed his brows slightly in thought.

This one’s temperament... wasn’t to his liking...

Gao Wei, having pursued the Dao through martial arts, was renowned as an overlord in the Mortal World, favoring upright and outright power to crush his foes.

He observed Xiang Wuji for long, and Xiang Wuji clearly felt detached from the sect... wary even... and when he looked at Gao Wei, there was no joy in his eyes, only calm introspection.

Like a cunning fox or a calculated wolf.

It wasn’t to his liking.

But he was quite satisfied with the martial arts talent of the other, which made him feel some kinship.

Since he had already spoken, and because the other’s character merely made him uncomfortable, he saw no reason to retract his words, nor suppress him.

But Xiang Wuji was not going to become his most satisfying disciple.

Looking below, Xiang Wuji saw that not many three spirit roots were picked by Elders. Most three spirit roots shared the fate of the four and five spirit roots.

When it came to dual spirit roots, the elders all actively chose.

Dual spirit roots, already counted as Golden Core Talent.

The dual spirit roots were soon all taken.

The remaining talents with Celestial Spirit Roots or Anomalous Spirit Roots were very few, consisting mostly of special physique disciples among them.

If the three spirit roots were excellent, dual spirit roots were considered geniuses.

The remaining disciples were all paragons, only chosen by the true leaders of the Longming Sect.

"Is that... the Sect Master?"

Following Gao Wei’s gaze, Xiang Wuji looked to the sky, where a figure stood. Beside him was Haoyang, yet he was more dazzling than Haoyang, so much so that ordinary people couldn’t discern his appearance or stature.

"An ordinary Celestial Spirit Root cannot capture the Sect Master’s attention."

"Could it be... a special physique..."

Gao Wei murmured to the side.

Xiang Wuji had already found the answer within his heart.

That genius with the Ice Spirit Root and Nine-leaf Cyan Lotus Body!

A true genius!

..............

The Sect Master came swiftly, and left just as swiftly, leaving just two fewer people on the ground.

Very quickly, this feast of selecting new disciples concluded, with fresh blood injected into the Longming Sect.

The entire sect seemed to be invigorated anew...

[You successfully entered the Everlasting Sect under the tutelage of Golden Core Elder Gao Wei of the Red Blood Pavilion.]

[You became a Registered Disciple of Elder Gao Wei, becoming an Outer Disciple of the Longming Sect.]

[You received the entry package, which included a robe, a Magical Artifact, an Identity Token, and several cultivation resources...]
