I gain ten years' worth of cultivation every day, and even geniuses will only see my doorstep!

The stone tablet lit up, and lines of text appeared:

Age: 37

Cultivation level: Late stage of Tribulation Transcending

Spiritual Root: ? ? ?

The last line stunned everyone.

Spiritual Root: ? ? ?

The disciple in charge of the test frowned.

"What happened? Is the stone tablet damaged?"

He went up to check and found that the stone tablet was intact.

He glanced at Qin Yuan again.

"You...try again?"

Qin Yuan placed his hand on it again.

It still displays: Spiritual Root: ? ? ?

This time, even the white-robed old man on the high platform was alarmed.

He leaped down in front of Qin Yuan and personally inspected the stone tablet.

After a long while, he raised his head, his gaze towards Qin Yuan becoming complicated.

"It's not that the stone tablet is broken, it's that your spiritual root... the stone tablet can't detect it."

Qin Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Can't it be detected?"

The old man in white robes nodded.

"There are only two possibilities: either your spiritual root is too high a grade, exceeding the detection range of the stone tablet; or your spiritual root is too special for the stone tablet to recognize. Either way, it means you are not an ordinary person."

He paused.

"Young friend, may I ask what kind of cultivation technique you practice?"

Qin Yuan remained silent for a moment.

"The Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique"

The white-robed old man frowned in thought, but couldn't recall the origin of this technique.

"The Nine Revolutions Profound Origin Technique? I've never heard of it."

Qin Yuandao.

"It was created by the younger generation."

The old man in white robes was stunned.

Self-created martial arts techniques?

And can one cultivate to the late stage of Tribulation Transcending?

The way he looked at Qin Yuan had completely changed.

"Young friend, come with me."

He took Qin Yuan and flew directly towards the main peak.

Behind him, a hundred thousand people erupted in uproar.

"Who was that person? Why was he taken away by the elder himself?"

"His spiritual root is showing a question mark; it's said it can't be measured!"

"Can't be detected? What grade of spiritual root must it be?"

"At least rank nine or higher! It might even be a legendary saint-grade spiritual root!"

"A Saint-grade spiritual root?! That's a genius that only appears once every ten thousand years!"

Amidst the murmurs, Qin Yuan's figure had already disappeared from the summit of Taixu Peak.

At the summit of Taixu Peak, stands the Taixu Hall.

The old man in white robes led Qin Yuan into the hall and then stepped aside.

On the high platform in the center of the hall sat a middle-aged beautiful woman.

Her aura was ethereal and elusive, as if she were one with heaven and earth.

The Sect Master of the Taixu Holy Sect, the Taixu True Man.

Peak of Saint King.

She looked at Qin Yuan, her gaze calm as still water.

"You're that little guy whose spiritual root couldn't be detected?"

Qin Yuan clasped his hands in a salute.

"Junior Qin Yuan greets Sect Master."

Master Taixu nodded.

"Give me your hand."

Qin Yuan extended his hand.

Master Taixu raised his hand, and a soft light enveloped his palm.

A moment later, she withdrew her hand, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

"Nine Revolutions Nascent Soul... the ninth level of 'Starry Sky Body'... and the inheritance of the God of War Punishment... interesting, very interesting."

Qin Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

How could she see right through him at a glance?

Master Taixu seemed to see through his thoughts and smiled slightly.

"No need to be nervous. At the Saint King level, seeing through the true strength of a junior is not difficult at all."

She paused.

"The reason your spiritual root cannot be detected is because you don't have a spiritual root at all."

Qin Yuan was stunned.

No spiritual root?

How did he cultivate all these years?

Master Taixu explained.

"It's not that you lack spiritual roots, but rather that your spiritual roots have completely merged with your physical body and soul. When ordinary people cultivate, their spiritual roots absorb spiritual energy and transform it into spiritual power. But when you cultivate, every cell in your body absorbs spiritual energy."

She looked at Qin Yuan, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

"This physique is called the 'Chaotic Physique.' It's extremely rare, appearing only once every ten thousand years. People with the Chaotic Physique are not limited by the grade of their spiritual roots, can cultivate any type of technique, and their cultivation speed is more than ten times that of ordinary people."

Qin Yuan remained silent.

Chaotic entity.

He never knew he had this condition.

"However, the Chaotic Body also has its drawbacks," Master Taixu continued. "Because you lack spiritual roots, the difficulty of breaking through realms is ten times that of ordinary people. Especially the step from Tribulation to Sainthood, which has blocked countless Chaotic Body possessors."

She looked at Qin Yuan.

Are you confident you can break through?

Qin Yuan did not hesitate.

"have."

Master Taixu laughed.

"Very well. Then I will accept you as my disciple."

Qin Yuan was taken aback.

Apprentice?

He had thought he would have to pass an entrance exam to become a regular disciple. Unexpectedly, he became the sect leader's personal disciple directly?

The Great Void Master said.

"With your qualifications, taking those entrance exams is a waste of your time. I will personally teach you, and within three years, I guarantee you will become a saint."

She paused.

"However, there is one condition."

Qin Yuandao.

"Sect Master, please speak."

Master Taixu looked at him with profound eyes.

"Three years later, the three thousand states of the Central Continent will hold the 'Grand Pride Competition.' Each state will send ten geniuses below the Saint Realm to participate and compete for a ranking on the 'Central Continent Pride Ranking.' The top ten on the ranking will be able to enter the Thirty-Six Grotto-Heavens for cultivation."

"I want you to represent Qingzhou in the competition, and—win first place."

Qin Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Grand Competition of Prodigies from Three Thousand Provinces.

Below the level of a sage.

He is currently in the late stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm. If he can break through to the Saint Realm in three years, he will be at the first level of the Saint Realm.

A Saint at the first level, battling against other Saint-level geniuses from other states?

"Does the sect leader have that much confidence in me?" Qin Yuan asked.

Master Taixu laughed.

"It's not that I have confidence in you, it's that I have confidence in the Chaos Body. Although your cultivation level is low, your foundation is deeper than anyone else's. You can kill a Saint King in the late stage of Tribulation Transcending, so what's so difficult about a Saint Level One fighting a Saint Level One Saint?"

Qin Yuan remained silent for a moment.

Then he clasped his hands in a salute.

"Disciple obeys."

Master Taixu nodded in satisfaction.

"Very well. From today onwards, you are my personal disciple. This is your identity token."

She raised her hand, and a purple token flew towards Qin Yuan.

The token is inscribed with the characters "太虚" on the front and "真" on the back.

Qin Yuan accepted it.

"Thank you, Master."

Master Taixu waved his hand.

"Go. Those people outside are still waiting. Go back and settle your three thousand men. Come see me again in three days and begin your cultivation."

Qin Yuan nodded and turned to leave.

As I walked out of the Taixu Hall, the white-robed old man was still waiting outside.

Upon seeing him come out, the old man greeted him with a smile.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother Qin. You are the first disciple the sect leader has not accepted in three thousand years."

Qin Yuan clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Thank you for the introduction, senior brother."

The old man waved his hand.

"No need to be so polite. Come on, I'll take you to complete the entry procedures."

Three days later, Qin Yuan returned to Taixu Peak.

This time, Master Taixu led him into a secret realm.

Within the secret realm, the spiritual energy was so dense it was almost liquefied. Various exotic flowers and herbs could be seen everywhere on the ground, each one a spiritual herb of grade eight or higher.

"This is my private sanctuary, called the 'Illusory Realm of the Great Void.' Time flows ten times faster here than outside. One day outside is equivalent to ten days inside."

The Great Void Master said.

"For the next three years, you will cultivate here. I will personally guide you, and we will strive to break through to the Saint level within three years."

Qin Yuan nodded.

"Thank you, Master."
