Cultivation: Beginning with the Heart Reflecting Heaven and Earth

After the class, quite a few people came to greet Lu Qian. It seems that these people are not really bad at communicating with others, provided that they think highly of you.

However, Lin Guihai, who possessed the Heavenly Spirit Root, remained as arrogant as ever. He didn't even glance at Lu Qian before choosing to leave.

Mu Dong seemed to notice Lu Qian's gaze and immediately said, "Ignore that guy. He may be arrogant, but he still has some strength. He's considered a genius among those with Heavenly Spiritual Roots, and ranks third among the Ten Talents of Canglan in this generation. His potential is terrifying!"

Lei Yunxing happened to walk over at that moment and said angrily, "That damn Canglan Ten Sons didn't even include me. What credibility does that have? I'm not afraid of Lin Guihai."

Mu Dong quickly said, "The selection of the Ten Canglan Talents was based on a lot of consideration. Age, spiritual root, cultivation level, and combat strength are all factors that affect the selection. But actually, these don't mean much."

Lei Yunxing seemed to have thought of something, snorted coldly, and said nothing more.

Lu Qian, on the other hand, seemed to be deep in thought.

In terms of combat strength, Lei Yunxing is definitely no weaker than Lin Guihai. Thunder magic combat power is inherently strong. Although Lin Guihai has a Heavenly Spiritual Root, Lei Yunxing has a Thunder Spiritual Root, so there is not much difference in this aspect. Therefore, the only possible difference is age and cultivation level.

Perhaps Lei Yunxing is older than Lin Guihai and has a lower cultivation level. Even if their combat strength is not much different, their potential is far inferior, so it is normal that they cannot be on the list.

Perhaps out of consideration for Lei Yunxing's feelings, Mu Dong didn't say anything more. Instead, Mu Xue quietly approached Lu Qian and whispered, "Those who make it onto the list of the Ten Sons of Canglan are all qualified to become Holy Sons and Holy Maidens in the future. Once selected as a Holy Son or Holy Maiden, they are almost guaranteed to reach the Nascent Soul stage, and the Holy Land will fully support them!"

Lei Yunxing glanced at Mu Xue, but didn't complain anymore.

Although Lu Qian was somewhat surprised, he quickly understood the situation. It seemed quite normal for the Holy Land to select Holy Sons and Holy Daughters, but the fact that they could be directly nurtured to the Nascent Soul stage was very attractive.

Although this matter is still far from Lu Qian's reach, he can't help but imagine what it would be like if he became a Nascent Soul cultivator one day.

However, Lu Qian currently only possesses three spiritual roots. If he were to be recognized as a Holy Son, it would be difficult to imagine what kind of performance he would need to deliver to achieve this. Even revealing his Zhou Tian Star Aperture might not offer much hope.

Although the Canglan Holy Land does not place that much importance on spiritual roots, it still values ​​them quite a bit; it just doesn't completely reject cultivators with poor spiritual roots.

After all, those with excellent spiritual roots are more likely to advance and break through realms, and become high-level cultivators. This is the rule of heaven and earth, and it cannot be changed by human likes or dislikes.

Lei Yunxing, meanwhile, asked excitedly, "Young Mu, where are we going for a drink?"

Lu Qian couldn't help but look at Lei Yunxing with surprise. It was just a drink, why was he acting like he was going to do something inappropriate? Why was he so excited?

After thinking for a moment, Mu Dong said with a pained expression, "Let's go to the True Spirit Palace, the Hall of Slaughter!"

The Hall of Slaughter?

What's the name of this place? Is it a legitimate restaurant?

Lu Qian almost had the urge to run away, but he restrained himself. After all, he was in the Holy Land, so nothing should happen as long as he wasn't pinned to the chopping board.

Mu Xue noticed Lu Qian's confusion and leaned closer. "The True Spirit Palace is skilled in taming and raising beasts, and refining corpses and bodies. In order to cultivate the Dragon Whale Battle Body, they captured and tamed many sea beasts. On the one hand, it's convenient for observation and cultivation; on the other hand, they occasionally send some sea beasts to the Killing Hall to be made into delicious dishes!"

A faint fragrance wafted over, and Mu Xue's gentle voice was like a feather caressing her ear, which made Lu Qian relax. He had originally imagined the Killing Hall to be a dangerous place where people killed, but now that he knew it was just a place for slaughtering sea beasts, yet it had such a lame name, he naturally had nothing to worry about.

Noticing Mu Dong's worried expression, Lu Qian quickly said, "Brother Mu, there's no need to go to such lengths! If all else fails, any place will do. It's not about food and drink, it's about the sentiment!"

Lei Yunxing stopped Lu Qian at this moment, saying rudely, "Go! Go! Go! We finally have a chance to rip off a rich man. Who knows when we'll get another chance! It'll only be a few thousand spirit stones at most. If he can't afford it, let his family pay the ransom. Nothing serious will happen!"

Lu Qian's mouth dropped open in astonishment. Thousands of spirit stones, just for a meal? That's almost enough to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill!

In other words, they ate a Foundation Establishment Pill with just one meal today? That's outrageous!

Mu Dong smiled wryly and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry about me! We can't afford such high-end ingredients. A meal like this will cost at most a little over a thousand spirit stones, which is nothing!"

Lu Qian was at a loss for words. The wealth of this holy land was beyond his imagination. Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would find it difficult to spend more than a thousand spirit stones on a single meal. Mu Dong, though feeling a pang of regret, remained nonchalant, clearly indicating that the amount of spirit stones was not a significant burden for him.

It's probably not just because the Holy Land is wealthy; for example, Lei Yunxing couldn't afford this price. Such a large sum of money is obviously related to Mu Dong's background as well.

Even within the Canghai Sect, someone of Meng Lingjun's status doesn't take precious spirit pearls seriously. The resources she enjoys are vastly different from those of ordinary outer disciples.

At Zhou Tian Academy, everyone is a genius with unlimited potential for future achievements, so people often forget about this gap.

In the Canghai Pearl, an outer disciple like Lu Qian would never have the opportunity to interact with disciples of the Dao lineage.

However, within the Zhou Tian Academy, they could address each other as brothers, which highlights the importance of the platform.

Let's go!

Mu Dong didn't say anything more. He took out a flying boat, which landed on the ground and quickly grew larger. "Walking there is still a bit far. It's faster to take a flying boat!"

Lei Yunxing took the seat without hesitation, followed closely by Lu Qian. Mu Xue, on the other hand, was the last to sit down and chose the seat next to Lu Qian.

Lu Qian was puzzled by another aspect. Generally speaking, only those who have reached the late stage of Qi Refining can control flying magical artifacts. Could it be that Mu Dong has already reached the late stage of Qi Refining? He doesn't look that old at all.

However, there's no need to ask such a question. Moreover, even if you're not at the late stage of Qi Refining, as long as you're willing to invest spirit stones into a flying magic weapon, you can still make it fly. At most, it will just cost some spirit stones.

The group flew straight towards the True Spirit Palace in a flying boat. Except for some special areas, flying was not prohibited in most parts of the Holy Land. After they arrived at a tavern, the flying boat slowly landed.
