The Primordial Law

Chapter 295 First Disciple

In the Twin Rice Sect, Yongquan Realm is considered an "outer disciple".

Reaching the Five Seas Realm allows one to become an "Inner Disciple".

Upon reaching the fifth level of the Five Seas Realm, one officially becomes a "core disciple" and has the opportunity to become a disciple of an elder, a venerable one, or a palace master.

Those who break through to the Dao Seed realm are considered "true disciples".

True disciples hold extremely high status and can independently undertake missions. For example, they can explore unknown areas of the underground immortal abode, intercept and capture intruders, or go to the surface for training.

Those with higher cultivation levels are called "Great True Disciples," who are on equal footing with the elders, have greater autonomy, and can establish their own residences. After planting the Death Spirit Flame, they can freely enter and exit the main altar.

Li Weiyi followed Yao Qingxuan to the Linggu Palace.

"Greetings, Venerable Nan!"

"Welcome, Your Excellency!"

……

Wherever Yao Qingxuan passed, all the inner disciples and core disciples he encountered retreated to the side of the road, knelt on one knee, and dared not raise their heads.

Even true disciples must bow and clasp their hands in reverence.

This is a giant of the Longevity Realm!

He transcends ordinary people, wields the power of life and death, and is a prominent figure in any power.

Elder Xu, named Xu Tingsheng, was in charge of assessing and registering the true disciples. Upon seeing Yao Qingxuan enter, he, who had been drowsy, suddenly became alert and immediately went forward to greet him.

"This is my eldest disciple, Li Weiyi. Go and register him!"

Yao Qingxuan didn't even glance at him, and went straight to sit in the seat at the very top, the seat that originally belonged to Elder Xu.

Anyone who can cultivate their Daoist mind and external manifestations to the point of "a world within a mile" can be promoted to elder after the age of sixty.

True disciples who reach the same level by the age of sixty will only end up like Zuo Sheng and Zuo Shi, being ridden on and commanded by young divine sons and daughters.

"A world within a mile" is also a condition for being included in the "Book of Sixty Years".

Shi Jiuzhai reached this level at the fifth level of the Dao Seed Realm.

Those who are inheritors often reach the fourth level of the Dao Seed Realm, condense a Dao Lotus, and their Dao Heart's external manifestation can touch "a mile of heaven and earth," thus entering the "Jiazi Book."

While all are elders, the twenty-eight elders of the Heavenly Palace responsible for affairs in the twenty-eight states of the Lingxiao Realm are of higher caliber and greater strength. Some of them are even Holy Spirit Mind Masters and Longevity Realm giants. The elders of the twenty-eight prefectures of the Spirit Valley Palace's main altar are also of extremely high caliber.

Li Weiyi became famous throughout the land at the Hidden Dragon Lantern Festival, in addition to his identity as the Hermit of the Nine Li Hidden Sect.

Therefore, the news that Venerable Nan had accepted him as a disciple quickly spread throughout the main altar, attracting countless inner and core disciples to come and see. Even some of the true disciples were alarmed.

Following Elder Xu's instructions, Li Weiyi unleashed his full mental power.

"Wow!"

A flash of brilliance.

His brow shone like a small, radiant sun.

Instantly, the light was so intense that the inner disciples and core disciples present couldn't even open their eyes, completely illuminating the valley where the Spirit Valley Hall was located.

The divine light and shadow rose up, transforming into two mulberry trees that leaned against each other, gleaming with golden light and radiating heat.

The Daojiao disciples outside the assessment site exclaimed in surprise and discussed the matter endlessly.

"How could it be telekinesis? Isn't he a martial arts cultivator? I've heard that he's a peerless genius capable of defeating a young emperor, a talent that only appears once every ten thousand years in the Lingxiao Realm."

"You're ignorant, aren't you? He not only cultivates martial arts, but is also an insect master, cultivating both martial arts and mental power. Tsk tsk, before this, probably no one would have thought that his mental power was so strong, unlike someone who is just a one-star mental master."

"His martial arts are ruined, and his ancestral field was shattered by a giant in the Longevity Realm. He can only switch to cultivating mental power."

"So what if the path of martial arts doesn't lead anywhere? A genius is still a genius. He became a Spirit Master at such a young age, and with the seven Monarch-level rare insects he raises, he will still achieve unimaginable success in the future."

"His spiritual aura is extraordinary, like two divine trees that may take root in the earth and spread their branches into the void in the future."

……

Elder Xu was secretly surprised: "A two-star Spiritual Master! You've met the requirements for a true disciple. Put away your spiritual power and spiritual light and shadow!"

In the past two months, Li Weiyi has refined all the remaining seven Star Day Pills. At the same time, he has been absorbing the radiance of the Fusang Divine Tree in Tanggu Sea, and has already cultivated to the limit of a two-star Spiritual Master.

However, the time for accumulation was too short, and multiple attempts to condense a third psychic star all ended in failure.

Sitting at the head of the table, Yao Qingxuan was slightly surprised.

What surprised her was not the significant increase in Li Weiyi's mental power. After all, she had heard from Shan Ze that Li Weiyi possessed a superior-grade elixir for enhancing mental power called the "Starry Night Pill."

Surprisingly, in just two months, the golden crow flames condensing on the light and shadow of the Fusang Divine Tree have become even stronger.

Two months ago, the Golden Crow Flame he conjured with his mental power was only equivalent to a minor first-level technique.

If he continues to cultivate, the Golden Crow Flame will soon be able to transform into the power of the first level of a great technique.

How did you do it?
The divine light and shadow of the Fusang Divine Tree are so mysterious! "Haha!"

A thunderous laugh echoed from beyond the heavens.

A avatar enveloped in magical energy descended from the sky and landed in the Spirit Valley Hall. With enormous wings, it strolled in and said, "Congratulations to Venerable Nan on taking on such a fine disciple. You have found a young emperor-level talent for the Divine Sect."

The Daoist disciples outside immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

Li Weiyi felt immense pressure and stepped aside to observe secretly.

Within the bright clouds of magical energy, there was a powerful, deformed humanoid being with a snake's head, dragon's claws, phoenix wings, dog's tail, and human body, its stature as tall as a mountain.

This is because he consumed the blood of four ancient immortal beasts, resulting in four different changes in his body. Normally, only a giant in the Longevity Realm could achieve this.

Although the other party was congratulating him, Li Weiyi sensed that he had ill intentions.

Li Weiyi wanted to keep a low profile and showcase his talent for telekinesis, but he brought up the "young emperor" again, which shows that he was up to no good.

Yao Qingxuan looked at the deformed human figure opposite him: "It's just taking on a disciple, I didn't expect to alarm you, the deputy hall master of the Heavenly Principle Hall."

Chu Tianshu, the deputy hall master of the Heavenly Principle Hall, smiled and said, "Since ancient times, the Divine Sect has never produced a young emperor-level hero. Now that we have subdued one, it is naturally a great event for the entire sect to celebrate. I suggest that we hold a grand ceremony to directly confer upon him the title of Divine Son and inform the two Rice Ancestors of the Sacred Heart level."

Yao Qingxuan said, "Does the Vice Hall Master not know that his ancestral field was once destroyed, which greatly restricted his path in martial arts? Now, he mainly cultivates mental power."

Chu Tianshu asked, "Has Venerable Nan already investigated? Was the ancestral field truly shattered?"

Li Weiyi remained calm, realizing that the vice-palace master was targeting Yao Qingxuan, not him.

"What? Does the Vice Hall Master want to investigate again? I took him as my disciple because I valued his talent in mental power, not his talent in martial arts," Yao Qingxuan replied flawlessly.

Chu Tianshu laughed heartily: "Since Venerable Nan has investigated, it is clear that this matter is true. Alas, what a pity! However, with the cultivation of the spiritual light and shadow of the Fusang Divine Tree, plus the assistance of seven marquis-level strange insects, he is simply a legendary genius of mental power and insect master."

"The Venerable Nan is only at the Longevity Realm of Martial Arts, how can he possibly teach a genius in mental power? Our Heavenly Principles Hall is the true holy realm for mental power cultivation."

Li Weiyi met the gaze of this Longevity Realm giant, neither humble nor arrogant: "Thank you for your kindness, Vice Hall Master. I am still unwilling to accept this, and I am preparing to cultivate the Dao in the Wind Mansion. I will cultivate both mind and martial arts!"

If Li Weiyi truly cultivated the Dao in the Feng Mansion, it would naturally dispel the doubts of the world.

At the same time, by using softness to overcome hardness, she neutralized Chu Tianshu's attack, leaving him speechless.

"Good, good, good, that's ambitious! Only, the gates of the Heavenly Court are always open for you."

The magical energy and light emanating from Chu Tianshu receded like a tide and disappeared into the northern horizon.

"What a fine deputy hall master of the Heavenly Principles Hall! With just a little manipulation, he dug a huge pit for Yao Qingxuan. At the same time, he pointed out that I had cultivated the spirit of the Fusang Divine Tree and possessed seven strange insects, as if he was afraid that the true disciples, divine sons, and divine daughters of the Rice Cult would not know. I wonder if the assassination attempt using the puppet scarecrow is related to him." Li Weiyi thought to himself.

……

The Sixth Goddess's Palace.

After listening to Yang Yun's report, Yang Qingxi walked out of the cultivation room after several months.

"Crash!"

Above the mansion, the vast and bright celestial river of light transformed into hundreds of streams of magical energy, flowing into her body. Her entire being shimmered with divine light, and her skin glowed like celestial jade.

Compared to a year ago, when she stepped into the second level of the Dao Seed Realm, her temperament became even more sharp, as if she had transcended the mortal world.

Yang Yun used to be able to calmly face this domineering older sister, but now he can't even stand up straight; he looks more like a grandson than a younger brother.

Yang Qingxi said softly, "You mean, Li Weiyi can easily defeat Zuo Sheng, who is at the second level of the Dao Seed Realm?"

Yang Yun nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "He releases a long whip of spiritual light and flame from between his eyebrows, and with a whooshing sound, he can contend with Zuo Sheng with just his mental power. Although his martial arts are ruined, his mental power has risen again, which is quite terrifying."

Yang Qingxi pondered carefully: "He asked you to pass on a message to Wang Shu because he wanted to drag me into his scheme."

“I think so too, sister. We can’t let him take advantage of us,” Yang Yun said.

Yang Qingxi remained silent, her mind elsewhere.

After using the Dragon Seed Dao, she analyzed the Dao of the Ancient Emperor Flying Dragon and compared it with her own martial arts, gaining new insights every day and making rapid progress in her cultivation.

However, he was never able to break through to the third level of the Dao Seed Realm.

She knew very well that it was because her physical strength couldn't keep up with the progress of her martial arts cultivation that she was holding back. So recently, Yang Qingxi had been refining blood crystals and taking pills to enhance her physical body.

Although their strength has greatly increased, their wealth is also being depleted like water.

Without control of the Suizong's secular properties, Yang Qingxi could no longer enrich himself and was now penniless.

Once you reach the Dao Seed Realm, the cost of every aspect of cultivation becomes enormous. Any sect, even one with millions of members like the Zuoqiu Sect, requires Dao Seed Realm cultivators to explore secret realms and find resources on their own; the sect can only provide for a portion of it.

The Spring Spring Realm and the Five Seas Realm are seedlings, while the Dao Seed Realm is the pillar that supports a sect or clan.

Yang Qingxi knew that Wang Shu, the fourth divine son, had opened a secret treasure trove while exploring the underground immortal abode and possessed a great deal of resources.

His exceptional comprehension and ability to successfully master the great technique were related to that treasure vault.
