Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 119 Nominal Disciple (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

Shen Xuan slowly raised his head.

Looking directly at Master Yang, he said firmly, "Shen Xuan comes from a humble background and has come this far. No matter how difficult things have been, he has never betrayed a friend!"

Master Yang nodded slightly.

A brilliant light shone brightly in the void, and ripples spread out.

Master Yang's figure seemed like a vast world, imbued with some mysterious and profound laws and rules.

One glance was enough to be captivated, and one longed to be part of it, to become a tiny part of its presence.

"Let me see your strength!"

"A full blow!"

Shen Xuan stood up.

Take a deep breath.

The spiritual energy in his dantian began to circulate rapidly.

Water control technique!
Iron Bone Technique!
Critical Strike!
The Technique of Overturning Rivers and Seas!
【The Art of Condensing Water to Transform a Sharp Edge】!
【Water Spirit Gathering Technique】!
【Immortal-Slaying Water Qi Technique】!
As Shen Xuan continuously changed the hand seals, a water-qi sword aura condensed in front of him.

Seven methods combined into one!

Streaks of watery energy, carrying a terrifying aura capable of destroying everything, gradually spread into the surrounding space.

"disease!"

At Shen Xuan's shout, the water qi sword energy cleaved open a spatial channel and shot straight toward Master Yang.

Qin Yuehan's pretty face was full of astonishment.

This was the first time she had ever seen Shen Xuan make a move.

The power and might of the [Immortal Slaying Water Qi Technique] are truly terrifying!

My consciousness was hazy, and I seemed to see a dazzling sword light filled with the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

Beneath the sword's gleam, immortals and gods shed blood, and the heavens weep.

At this moment, Qin Yuehan began to have deep doubts about her own strength.

She has been building her foundation for twenty-seven years.

I have never seen a Foundation Establishment cultivator unleash such terrifyingly powerful magic!

Shen Xuan was merely a rogue cultivator, and was recognized in the cultivation world as the weakest water-based cultivator in terms of offensive power.

"very good!"

Master Yang rarely offered a word of praise.

He pointed his hand at the water qi sword energy.

A seven-colored divine light shone forth, as if it possessed a spirit, wrapping around the water qi sword energy layer by layer, and then dissolving and melting it.

"Shen Xuan, you're very good!"

Master Yang's gaze fell on Shen Xuan.

“After I settled in Xiaogufeng, I never took on any male disciples.”

"For Yuehan's sake, I can make an exception this time."

"I will first accept you as a disciple on a nominal basis!"

"You do me a favor, and after you do it, I'll become your personal disciple!"

Without hesitation, Shen Xuan immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times and nine times.

"Disciple Shen Xuan thanks Master!"

Master Yang sat upright and remained motionless, accepting Shen Xuan's three bows and nine kowtows.

"What need does Master have for me?"

Master Yang looked relaxed.

“I once had a close friend who came from the Su family of Feiyun.”

"Go to Feiyun Mountain in Qingyang Prefecture and support the Su family for thirty years."

"Thirty years later, when your merits are complete, you may return to your sect."

"How about I take you as my personal disciple?"

Shen Xuan quickly replied, "This disciple will obey Master's command."

Master Yang was in a good mood.

"Yuehan!"

Qin Yuehan stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Disciple is here."

"Take my jade token and help Shen Xuan complete the sect entry procedures. Exchange a copy of the [Divine Treasure Vast Ocean Technique] from the Scripture Pavilion for him; consider it a reward for his support of the Su family!"

"Yes, Master."

Then Master Yang waved his hand, signaling him to step down.

Shen Xuan and Qin Yuehan bowed and took their leave, departing from the Little Lonely Peak Paradise.

"Let's go back!"

Qin Yuehan rode on a cloud-covered cloth, bringing Shen Xuan back to Hanyue Pavilion.

Next, Qin Yuehan helped Shen Xuan complete the sect entry procedures and exchanged for a copy of the [Divine Treasure Ocean Technique] inheritance.

What seemed like an insurmountable difficulty to him was easily resolved with a single sentence from Master Yang.

This made Shen Xuan realize even more clearly the importance of strength.

Only with strength can one gain status and acquire more benefits.

In this respect, the world of cultivation and the mortal world are no different.

Back at Yuehan Pavilion.

Lu Zhengying rushed over upon hearing the news.

"Shen Xuan, has Master Yang accepted you as a disciple?" "A disciple on paper."

"Being a disciple in name only is fine too!"

Lu Zhengying's eyes couldn't hide her envy.

"Shen Xuan, you're really lucky! That's Master Gufeng! You'll understand later!"

Shen Xuan didn't ask any further questions.

The matter has not yet been resolved.

He wouldn't dare to act recklessly under the guise of Master Yang.

I heard that Shen Xuan is going to Qingyang Prefecture to support the Feiyun Su family for thirty years.

Lu Zhengying quickly found the jade slip containing information about cultivation families in the Song Kingdom that she had collected earlier and handed it to Shen Xuan.

"I knew it! This intelligence was useful!"

……

The night was deep, and the moonlight was as clear as water.

Hanyue Pavilion, guest room.

Shen Xuan was wide awake.

He silently reviewed his recent gains and losses in his mind.

This time, I owe Qin Yuehan an enormous favor once again.

no way.

In the world of cultivation, there is a strict hierarchy and rigid social class.

In order to pass on the [Divine Treasure Ocean Skill], he had no choice but to swallow his pride and live off a woman again.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly without any serious incident.

He finally joined the Qingyun Sect and became a disciple under a nominal title.

But what was the meaning behind Master's instruction to have Fei support the Su family for thirty years?
Shen Xuan pondered to himself.

His master ordered him to use his full strength.

In fact, he only used seven-tenths of his strength.

Nevertheless, Shen Xuan's [Immortal Slaying Water Qi Technique], which combines seven techniques into one, is enough to instantly kill an ordinary mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator.

But in front of their master, they were utterly helpless.

The difference in strength between Foundation Establishment and Core Formation is more than tenfold!
But Master is merely an ordinary Core Formation cultivator.

She's a female cultivator with relatively weak strength!
This instantly brought Shen Xuan to his senses.

After a cultivator completes the Foundation Establishment stage, they attempt to form the Core, which can be condensed into a Golden Core, a True Core, or a False Core.

The Golden Core cultivator is the strongest and has the greatest potential.

When a Golden Core cultivator forms their core, their spiritual power, soul, and physical body are 30% to 50% stronger than those of a True Core cultivator.

As time goes on, the gap between the two widens further and further.

Lei Yaoyang's master was one of the few Golden Core cultivators in the Qingyun Sect.

From the moment he asked Master Ge to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill to his attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, Lei Yaoyang remained a persistent and deliberately difficult figure.

This infuriated Shen Xuan.

According to the plot of the wish-fulfillment novels he read in his previous life, he should immediately kill Lei Yaoyang and grind him to dust to vent his hatred.

Unfortunately, this is in a real world of cultivation.

When you lack strength, it's common for others to bully you at will.

Why is Lei Yaoyang so determined to marry Qin Yuehan?

Shen Xuan did not believe that Lei Yaoyang was infatuated with Qin Yuehan's beauty.

At their level of cultivation, the one thing they have in abundance is beautiful young female cultivators.

Countless teenage female cultivators would be willing to become concubines or slaves if they so desired.

Lei Yaoyang's perseverance stemmed from only one reason.

Qin Yuehan could bring him great benefits.

The four essential elements of cultivation are "wealth, companions, methods, and environment".

Lei Yaoyang is a cultivator of thunder magic, a true disciple of the Golden Core stage, and he lacks nothing in terms of wealth, companionship, and land.

"Is it because Qin Yuehan possesses a special bloodline talent that helps Lei Yaoyang cultivate his techniques?"

Shen Xuan believed that this was the most important reason why Lei Yaoyang was pestering Qin Yuehan.

Cultivating thunder magic is not so easy.

Lightning power is immense, but it is also the most unstable and difficult to control.

Thunder magic cultivators are far more powerful than those of the same level, making it even more difficult for them to break through and advance.

Shen Xuan shook his head.

If even he could figure it out, how could Qin Yuehan, who came from the royal family, not know the truth?

"Therefore, from beginning to end, Lei Yaoyang was after Qin Yuehan. I was just a pawn, a piece of cannon fodder used by Lei Yaoyang."

The clouds parted to reveal the sun, and my thoughts suddenly became clear.

As a Core Formation cultivator and an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, how could Yang Caiyi not see through these things?
Faced with the choice between the bond between master and disciple and practical interests, Master Gufeng chose the bond between master and disciple.

After accepting Shen Xuan as a disciple.

Master Gufeng gifted him with the inheritance of his cultivation techniques and sent him to Qingyang Prefecture to support the Su family of Feiyun Mountain for thirty years.

The purpose was to make him avoid Lei Yaoyang and prevent the conflict from escalating.

There are plenty of ways for Master Gufeng to support a mere cultivation family if he wants to.

Why would a newly initiated disciple like him be needed to stay here for thirty years?
