Gou Zai Xianwu Chaos World, Physical Sainthood

Welcome Peak.

The apprenticeship ceremony was conducted very quickly.

As a martial arts sect, Dongyang Sect did not hold a grand banquet like ordinary people.

Apart from those who had very close friends in the Dongyang Sect, most of them had already said goodbye and left.

An open space next to the main hall.

Lu Cheng and Du Ruo stood facing each other.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother Lu."

Du Ruo smiled and softly offered her congratulations:

"Everyone felt sorry for our senior brother back then, but it turns out it was just a misunderstanding."

"I never expected that my senior brother would actually pass away before me."

"Given the current state of martial arts, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that you have extraordinary luck."

Lu Cheng did not feign modesty, and nodded, saying:

"If we're talking about luck, there is some to it, but compared to Junior Sister Du, it's still far from enough."

Everything Lu Cheng has now is the result of his own hard work.

Unlike Du Ruo, who had everything prepared as soon as she entered the school.

Du Ruo had been given a elixir like the Nine-Turn Awakening Pill long ago.

Not to mention obtaining pills, such as the Qi Condensation Pill, when breaking through to the Qi Refining Realm.

Du Ruo actually understood the meaning behind Lu Cheng's words and joked:

"Senior brother, there's no need to be envious. With your progress, the sect will definitely provide you with all kinds of resources."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Lu Cheng couldn't help but sigh.

In just a few months, a shy girl who couldn't even decide whether to become Qi Qiang's disciple and had to ask others for advice has changed so much.

Not only have they become more poised and elegant in their words and actions, but their character has also undergone a complete transformation.

Could it be that martial arts training can also open one's mind?

But I don't feel like anything has changed.

Or did Yun Huizi give Du Ruo some extraordinary elixir that awakened her intelligence?

"What are you two junior brothers and sisters talking about?"

As the two were talking, a voice rang out from the side.

Lu Cheng turned his head, and a man over thirty years old walked over from the side.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Du Ruo's expression changed slightly for a moment, before she introduced him to Lu Cheng:

"This is Senior Brother Wei Lang, a disciple of Uncle Han from Zixia Peak, who has been in the mid-stage of Body Refinement for many years."

Lu Cheng glanced at Wei Lang a few times, then cupped his hands and said:

"Senior Brother Wei."

He is over thirty years old and in the middle stage of body cultivation. It seems that his talent is above average among the "good talents".

Compared to Lu Cheng and Du Ruo, he is indeed quite inferior, but compared to the entire Dongyang County, he is quite good.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been accepted as a disciple by a peak master.

He may become the master of a peak in the future.

Wei Lang nodded and exclaimed in admiration:

"Junior Brother Lu is truly an outstanding person. At such a young age, his strength has reached such a level. As his senior brother, I am truly ashamed."

"Junior brother has now broken through to the Body Refinement Realm, it's time for him to move into Purple Cloud Peak."

"As the saying goes, wealth, companions, Dharma, and place, a good place for spiritual practice is also very important."

Lu Cheng had no idea what Wei Lang was up to, so he could only exchange pleasantries.

However, they did not notice that Du Ruo's expression had become even more unpleasant.

Before Wei Lang could speak again, she preemptively said:

"I suppose Senior Brother Wei has a good place to recommend to Senior Brother Lu, but unfortunately, Senior Brother Lu and I have already arranged to go to the county town with my father and the others to look at houses. We can look for Senior Brother again after we return tomorrow, shall we?"

As he spoke, he pointed to his parents not far away.

Neither his words nor his demeanor seemed fake.

"Looking at houses?" Wei Lang turned his head in confusion.

Du Ruo took the opportunity to nudge Lu Cheng and give him a wink.

Although Lu Cheng was surprised, he did not show it at all, and simply nodded in agreement.

Du Ruo said:

"My family plans to move to the county town, which is close to the sect and is also a bustling place, so we have chosen a house first."

Wei Lang nodded and said:

"With your talent, junior brothers and sisters, reaching the Qi Refining Realm is just around the corner. The two of you will surely become a martial arts family, and it is indeed time for you to move to the county city."

"How about this, I'll just pick a good place for my junior brother."

As the saying goes, "Those who offer unsolicited favors are either treacherous or thieves."

Lu Cheng was certain that Wei Lang had some ulterior motive.

You should refuse immediately.

Before Lu Cheng could speak, Wei Lang chuckled and put his arm around Lu Cheng's shoulder.

"However, there is something I would like to ask for your help with, junior brother. It is like this: I have been stuck in the mid-stage for quite some years now, and seeing all of you senior brothers and junior brothers catching up, I am quite anxious."

"But the more anxious you are, the more it will affect your progress."

Wei Lang took a deep breath and said seriously:

"I had no other choice but to ask. Could you lend me your Nine-Turn Awakening Pill, Junior Brother?"

"Huh?" Lu Cheng thought that Wei Lang must have some bad intentions, but he never expected that this guy would actually have his eye on the Nine-Turn Awakening Pill!

His expression immediately changed:

"Senior brother is joking."

Wei Lang said anxiously:

"Junior Brother's talent is so high that he will definitely be able to break through to the Qi Refining Realm even without pills."

"I'm different from you, senior brother. If I delay any longer, I'm afraid I won't even be able to achieve perfection."

"Don't worry, junior brother. I'm just borrowing it. Once I break through, my status and power will rise, and I will definitely get you another one then."

Lu Cheng shrugged and shook off Wei Lang's hand.

Looking intently into Wei Lang's eyes, he said:

"Please forgive me, senior brother, but this elixir is something I desperately need, and I will not give it away under any circumstances."

As he spoke, he felt extremely frustrated.

I was too embarrassed to make a move during our sparring session earlier.

Why are you coming over here with such a shameless attitude now?

With Wei Lang's veteran mid-stage Body Refinement strength, if he were to make a move, Lu Cheng would be no match for him.

However, Yun Lingzi had mentioned beforehand that he was a disciple of the younger generation, while Wei Lang, as the peak master's disciple, was of the "uncle" generation.

Plus, I'm not young anymore. If I really go up there, I'll inevitably be ridiculed by others.

Wei Lang's eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at Lu Cheng:

"Junior brother, you are still young and new to the sect. You need help right now. Even if you become Uncle Han's disciple, it doesn't mean you can rest easy from now on."

"A Nine-Turn Awakening Pill is just icing on the cake for you, but it's different for me."

Lu Cheng shook his head:

"Senior brother, there's no need to say anything more. You don't need to worry about the residence on Zixia Peak. I'll just go to the Hall of Affairs to choose one myself when I get back."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Lang's face suddenly flushed red:

"In that case, let it be. However, there are some things that may be difficult for you to handle in the future, Junior Brother."

Lu Cheng spoke calmly:

"Since we have entered the path of martial arts, we should focus on cultivation. All other worldly matters are but dust before our eyes."

Wei Lang stared intently at Lu Cheng for a while, then let out a long breath and nodded:

"I hope Junior Brother Lu can truly remain unattached to worldly things, humph!"

After speaking, he walked away.

Watching Wei Lang gradually disappear, Du Ruo spoke helplessly:

"Wei Lang is notoriously hypocritical. As soon as he arrived, I guessed his purpose."

Lu Cheng sighed:

"Not only are they hypocritical, but they're also incredibly shameless. They actually had the nerve to use the word 'borrow,' it's truly..."

Du Ruo said:

"Wei Lang won't be the last one. You should take these two pills immediately. Anyway, the effects of the medicine will slowly diminish as you cultivate."

Lu Cheng nodded without hesitation, and immediately took out the pill and swallowed it in one gulp.

The pill slid down without me feeling anything.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Du Ruo took her leave.

Watching Du Ruo talk to her parents, the word "family" suddenly came to mind.

But then he shook his head.

There was no one behind him.

Moreover, now is the time for him to improve his martial arts skills, and he has no time to care about worldly matters.

Taking a breath, Lu Cheng headed directly towards Tianzhu Peak.

Tianzhu Peak is known as the foundation of the sect, and the palace on its peak is the largest in the entire Dongyang Sect.

What other peaks have, Tianzhu Peak will definitely have; but what Tianzhu Peak has, other peaks may not have all of.

Cui Yuan had previously granted Lu Cheng access to the building once, but he hadn't had time to go.

Now that he's become the peak master's disciple, it's a waste.
