Everyone's a Master: I'll reward my disciples ten thousandfold!

Su Muhan's hands trembled slightly.

She accepted the incomplete manuscript and bowed deeply, saying, "Disciple thanks the Sect Leader for bestowing this teaching! I will certainly live up to the Sect Leader's high expectations!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp notification sound rang in Chen Yuan's mind.

[Ding! Successfully bestowed upon disciple Su Muhan an incomplete mortal-grade cultivation technique!]

[Trigger a 10,000x critical hit and get a full refund!!!]

[Congratulations, host! You have obtained the 'Supreme Primordial Chaos Technique'!]

Ten thousand times.

Top-tier martial arts technique.

A vast stream of information instantly flooded Chen Yuan's mind.

[Supreme Primordial Chaos Technique (Supreme Grade): Created by an ancient great being observing the beginning of heaven and earth. Contains a complete Great Dao cultivation manual from the Qi Refining stage to the Nascent Soul stage.]

[Characteristic 1: Those who cultivate this method will permanently increase their spiritual affinity tenfold. Each time they break through a major realm, their physical body will automatically be reshaped and strengthened once.]

【Characteristic 2 (Return of All Spirits to Origin): Passive effect. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth around the cultivator will automatically gather, forming a natural spiritual domain, impervious to all magic.】

A useless book that makes people want to vomit blood can be transformed into a magic manual.

Chen Yuan looked at Su Muhan, who was holding the tattered scroll, and with a flick of his left hand, a crystal-clear jade slip with a faint blue halo appeared out of thin air.

"That incomplete scroll was merely a prelude I used to test your Dao heart."

Chen Yuan flicked his wrist, snatching the incomplete manuscript from Su Muhan's hand.

He turned his hand and slapped the jade slip, which was radiating celestial light, into her palm.

"This is the true Dharma. Study it carefully."

His tone was extremely indifferent.

Lin Xiao watched from the side, his breathing unconsciously becoming heavy.

The spiritual pressure emanating from that jade slip, even in its slightest leakage, doubled the speed at which the spiritual energy circulated within his body.

The sect leader casually bestowed it upon a young girl who had just joined the sect.

The Guiyuan Sect's foundation is unfathomable.

The moment Su Muhan grasped the jade slip, he froze on the spot. A vast, star-like cultivation technique flowed directly from his palm into his brow.

"Sit down. Circulate your Qi throughout your body," Chen Yuan commanded.

Su Muhan sat cross-legged.

Place your hands together on your lower abdomen and close your eyes tightly.

The first cycle of the Supreme Primordial Chaos Technique begins.

In just a moment.

The air within a radius of 100 feet churned violently.

Visible white mist was forcibly stripped away from the ruins, withered trees, and rotten mud.

Hundreds of thin streams of spiritual energy, each as thick as a hair, converged wildly toward the center.

The suction power increased dramatically.

The gravel on the ground trembled uneasily.

The withered weeds lost their last bit of moisture, turned into dust, and scattered with the wind.

The mud clods on the earthen wall crumbled and fell to the ground, turning into dust.

The white streams swirled and intertwined above Su Muhan's head, forming an ever-expanding vortex of spiritual energy.

The stench in the surrounding air was completely pulverized by this violent spiritual pressure.

Lin Xiao, standing three steps away, was the first to be hit.

The air around me became extremely heavy.

The spiritual energy that had just stabilized in his dantian suddenly reversed uncontrollably.

The spiritual energy was pulled outward along the meridians, trying to fly towards that white vortex.

The demon-slaying sword in his hand emitted a sharp sword cry.

Lin Xiao suddenly looked up.

Su Muhan, who was in the center of his gaze, had a flushed face and bulging veins on his forehead.

The mortal body is being infused with spiritual energy far exceeding its limits.

The slightest mistake could result in death by explosion.

"Clang!"

Lin Xiao drew his demon-slaying sword.

Azure sword energy surged forth as he forcefully suppressed the surging spiritual power within his body and took a large step forward.

"Sect Leader!" Lin Xiao gripped his sword hilt tightly. "Junior Sister has suffered a qi deviation! This disciple will disperse the spiritual energy and protect her heart meridian!"

After saying that, the muscles in his arms bulged.

He poured all the spiritual power from the third level of Qi Refining into the sword and raised it to strike.

"Step back."

Chen Yuan spoke.

Just two words, spoken in an extremely calm tone.

Lin Xiao's sword hung in mid-air.

The wind howled, and sand and stones filled the sky.

Debris from the ruins fell from mid-air.

Chen Yuan did not retreat even half a step.

He stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of the spiritual storm.

The hem of the blue Taoist robe remained perfectly still, and no gale or flying rocks could penetrate within a three-foot radius around it.

His gaze passed over the center of the formation and landed on the dry well in the distance.

"This is a sign of all things returning to their origin." Chen Yuan's voice was extremely steady. "Calm down and don't lose your composure."

Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat.

He stared at the sect leader's calm profile, his hand gripping the sword freezing in place.

How could one not know the power of a technique personally bestowed by the sect leader?

What he saw as a dead end was merely a normal anomaly in the eyes of the sect leader!

If this sword were to strike, it would sever Junior Sister's extraordinary opportunity!

"Your disciple is dull-witted!"

Lin Xiao broke out in a cold sweat and immediately sheathed his sword.

Take five steps back and sit down cross-legged.

He focused on maintaining his inner strength, locking away the spiritual energy within his body, and no longer interfering with it in the slightest.

Chen Yuan didn't even blink.

But secretly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The techniques provided by the system are absolutely not capable of overpowering the disciple; just maintain a stable stance.

The anomaly at the center of the vortex escalated once again.

A massive amount of white spiritual energy completely enveloped Su Muhan.

A crisp "crackling" sound came from inside her body.

Ordinary bones are forcibly shattered and reshaped.

The meridians were expanded tenfold.

Dark brown impurities seeped out from the pores and were instantly torn apart and evaporated by the spiritual energy storm on the body's surface.

The celestial spirit body has begun to awaken.

A visible ripple of spiritual energy spread from her body.

One layer of Qi Refining!

The pause lasted less than three seconds.

The gathering speed of spiritual energy accelerated again, and all the spiritual energy swirling in mid-air was poured back in.

Another, more solid ripple spread out.

Second level of Qi Refining!

The vortex of spiritual energy suddenly contracted, turning into white light and retracting into Su Muhan's crown.

"boom!"

The heavy spiritual pressure surged into the sky, directly smashing a hole in the dark clouds above.

Sunlight streamed down through the hole, illuminating the center of the ruins.

Refinement level three!

Su Muhan suddenly opened her eyes.

Deep within his pupils, a blue light shimmered, then faded into his eyes.

She looked at her hands.

Her skin glowed with a radiant sheen, and the spiritual energy surging within her filled her limbs and bones.

The hunger and weakness of the past were swept away.

At the same time, golden prompts popped up in Chen Yuan's mind one after another.

[Ding! Detected that disciple Su Muhan's cultivation has reached the third level of Qi Refining!]

[Cultivation level synchronization mechanism triggered!]

[Host's current cultivation level calculation: Qi Refining Level 3 (Lin Xiao) + Qi Refining Level 3 (Su Muhan) = Qi Refining Level 6!]

A deep rumble came from Chen Yuan's dantian.

The spiritual energy vortex instantly doubled in size.

The violent spiritual energy coursed through his limbs and bones, instantly breaking through three invisible barriers.

The five senses are greatly enhanced.

The faint sound of ants crawling across withered leaves a kilometer away reached my ears clearly.

Sixth level of Qi Refining.

Chen Yuan still had his hands behind his back.

Before he could speak, a dazzling golden banner popped up in the center of his field of vision.

It wasn't just him.

This prompt exploded in the minds of hundreds of millions of business leaders worldwide at the same time.

[Server-wide Announcement!]

[The second disciple of the Guiyuan Sect has successfully broken through to the third level of Qi Refining! This is to announce!]

The announcement was displayed three times consecutively.

[Zhang Dachui (Iron Fist Sect): Damn! It's the Guiyuan Sect again! They've issued another notice! What gives them the right?!]

[Qian Duoduo (Jin Yuan Gang): Wait! Why is Guiyuan Sect the only one to get a server-wide announcement? I personally witnessed my disciple break through to the first level of Qi Refining, and there wasn't even a notification sound. Why is the system giving him a server-wide announcement for the third level of Qi Refining?]
