Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

The possibility is probably not very high.

After all, Qin Yu is merely a Middle Grade Spirit Bone.

"Qin Yu!"

Su Xihe glanced over, and Qin Yu stepped forward to greet Immortal Envoy Luo Lizhu, "Qin Yu, I have seen the Immortal Envoy, sir."

He was no longer that ignorant Loose Cultivator.

In the Library Pavilion, he had already learned just how esteemed the Cyan Mist Hall’s position was.

But why did they seek him out?!

"Could you demonstrate your Spiritual Power?" Luo Lizhu asked Qin Yu.

Qin Yu looked at Su Xihe, saw her nod slightly, and no longer hesitated.

Spiritual Power surged forth, transforming into interwoven threads, wrapped between his hands. Though formless and colorless, with Luo Lizhu’s Realm, she could clearly perceive the extent of his control over Spiritual Power.

Luo Lizhu was somewhat surprised.

She initially thought Qin Yu only had an unusually profound understanding of Spiritual Power, but little did she know that his technique was so adept.

Hadn’t he just joined the Cyan Mountain Sect not long ago?!

Moreover, his Realm hasn’t fallen behind either.

It seems that after joining an Immortal Sect, he doubled down on his efforts, tirelessly cultivating, and that’s the reason.

Indeed, he is a remarkable Immortal Seed.

"Are you willing to follow me to Cyan Mist Hall for cultivation?" Luo Lizhu asked Qin Yu solemnly, issuing an invitation.

Instantly, a gasp echoed around them.

Before Qin Yu could speak, the crowd around had already shown looks of surprise.

Cyan Mist Hall is a unique establishment; although it does not interfere with the various Immortal Sects, entering it naturally brings enormous benefits.

"Go to Cyan Mist Hall?"

Qin Yu fell into contemplation.

With his current aptitude, going to Cyan Mist Hall would clearly not yield the same treatment as Cyan Mountain Sect.

He couldn’t abandon his few tender wives just to cultivate wholeheartedly, could he?!

Impossible!

Seeing his hesitation, Sect Leader Su Xihe appeared somewhat nervous.

Though going to Cyan Mist Hall would be beneficial for Qin Yu’s future cultivation, granting him resources unavailable at Cyan Mountain Sect, what about his sister then?

Should she be left alone shortly after marrying?!

Fortunately, Qin Yu did not disappoint her expectations.

He gently bowed, then said, "Immortal Envoy, sir, I, Qin Yu, come from humble beginnings and have led a mundane life for thirty years. Without my mentor’s attentive teaching and guidance, I wouldn’t have the achievements I have today. The grace of my mentor is as towering as a mountain, and I have yet to repay it. Therefore, I, Qin Yu, boldly ask for your understanding, Immortal Envoy..."

"..."

As his words were spoken, although no one in the hall dared to discuss or make noise, the gazes directed at Qin Yu were filled with astonishment and peculiarity.

In the eyes of mortals, a Cultivator is akin to an immortal.

The immortals also have a realm known as the Immortal Country, its vast territories immeasurable, spanning countless miles.

Halls are established by the Immortal Country like stars across the broad territory, governing regional cultivators and exercising the supreme authority of the Immortal Country.

Naturally, they don’t need to be self-sufficient like the Immortal Sects of various domains; every Cyan Mist Hall cultivator enjoys the stipend of the Immortal Country.

It is said these stipends can be exchanged for unimaginable resources from various Immortal Sects.

Therefore, cultivators from various domains sharpen their heads with the hope of entering Cyan Mist Hall.

But now, a visiting Immortal Envoy personally invited Qin Yu, who actually politely refused?!

The tense string in Su Xihe’s heart unexpectedly relaxed. But soon, a faint sense of guilt quietly filled her heart.

Qin Yu speaks grandly about mentor grace like a mountain, attributing all achievements to her, but Su Xihe knew it stemmed from Qin Yu’s inherent talent.

The reason for his polite refusal was mostly because of his sister, Su Xiyue!

It truly isn’t fair to Qin Yu, given his talent is destined for greatness rather than being confined to this remote corner.

The current Sect Leader surely missed the sincerity in Qin Yu’s words.

What Cyan Mist Hall, can it be more important than the first beauty with the Innate White Jade Sacred Body?!

He’s not Tang Xuanzang; even if he had to fetch scriptures, he would do so only for her majesty, the queen!

Immortal Envoy Luo Lizhu showed slight astonishment.

Clearly, she hadn’t expected Qin Yu to refuse, and so... promptly?

However, his respect for teachers and the path made Luo Lizhu regard him more highly.

This greatly contrasts with many profit-driven cultivators, a rare commendable trait.

"Qin Yu, the Hall Master has placed expectations on you; this is a gift from the Hall Master, May you achieve Golden Core soon!"

Luo Lizhu took out an Elixir and solemnly handed it to Qin Yu.

"Is it the Golden Core Formation Pill?!"

Inside the hall, a cultivator couldn’t help but exclaim.

This is a Third Level Elixir; if consumed at the peak of Foundation Establishment, it significantly enhances the probability of reaching Golden Core!

Perhaps due to Qin Yu’s Middle Grade Spirit Bone, the Cyan Mist Hall Master bestowed him this Elixir.

"I... have no merits, how dare to accept such generous favor?"

Qin Yu understood the preciousness of the Elixir; even though he might not need it, he had many beloved wives.

However, with Cyan Mist Hall’s unclear intentions, he dared not accept it recklessly.

"Rest assured, the Hall Master just wishes to take you to a Secret Realm."

Luo Lizhu softly explained the underlying reasons.

In this region, lies an Ancient Secret Realm, opening once every hundred years. Within the Secret Realm is an Ancient Array, spanning hundreds of thousands of years, yet remaining elusive.

To this day, whenever the Secret Realm opens, several Hall Masters from surrounding regions bring along some spiritually gifted young ones.

Although comprehending the Ancient Array is uncertain.

Such attempts continue generation after generation, eventually evolving into a competition among the young generations of various halls.

For cultivators, a sixty-year cycle counts as young!

Qin Yu might halt at Golden Core under the Root Bone’s limitations, but amidst the younger generation, he’s more than capable.

This is why the Hall Master noticed him.

But now, it’s only two and a half years until the next Secret Realm opening!

"So you must strive to breakthrough to Golden Core before the Secret Realm opens!"

"If you have any requests, feel free to voice them!"

Luo Lizhu stated.

Upon hearing this, the cultivators were collectively shocked.

Among them, more or less, had heard of that Secret Realm, Cyan Mist Hall actually selects Immortal Seeds externally, but has far higher requirements than other Immortal Sects.

At Qin Yu’s age, having refining-level Spiritual Power indeed stands out, but wouldn’t there be similar talents among Cyan Mist Hall?!

They certainly were unaware of what the Hall Master valued in Qin Yu... its comprehension talent!

Whether he could rival geniuses from other domains was uncertain.

What if?!

What if he comprehended the Ancient Array?!

At this moment, a never-before-felt sense of pride rose in the heart of Sect Leader Su Xihe.

He is her Direct Disciple.

To compete alongside talents from various halls, if this news spreads, Cyan Mountain Sect’s renown would reach across domains.

Would she, as a mentor, bask in her disciple’s light too?!

Thinking this, Su Xihe looked at Qin Yu and gave him a slight nod.
