I cultivate immortality through The Sims.

Have you inquired about any news regarding the Myriad Flowers Sect?

[Aside from the Holy Son and candidates for Holy Son, there are no male disciples within the Myriad Flowers Sect.]

All the Wan Hua Sect disciples traveling outside the sect are female.

There are rumors that a hundred years ago, the Myriad Flowers Sect produced a saint with unparalleled talent.

At that time, that holy son had already reached the peak of the Golden Core stage.

The Nascent Soul stage is just around the corner.

Later, the Myriad Flowers Sect discovered the cave dwelling of a fallen Nascent Soul stage expert.

The holy son then went in to seek his fortune.

Whether he received an opportunity is unknown.

But shortly after his return, the holy son perished.

From that time onward, all the holy sons of the Myriad Flowers Sect possessed five spiritual roots.

Over the past hundred years, the Myriad Flowers Sect has had three Holy Sons, none of whom have successfully established their Foundation Establishment.

But the Myriad Flowers Sect remains unchanged.

[You know this is your chance to establish your foundation. Even if the Myriad Flowers Sect is a den of dragons and tigers, you must venture into it.]

Soon, the Myriad Flowers Sect selected a dozen or so people from a large group of Qi Refining cultivators.

These dozen or so people were all in the late stage of Qi Refining.

[You didn't directly display your Qi Refining Level 10 cultivation; instead, you displayed Qi Refining Level 9.]

Among these dozen or so people, besides you, there are two others who are at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

But they are 28 and 29 years old, respectively.

And you, at only 21, have youth as your greatest advantage.

Moreover, none of these dozen or so late-stage Qi Refining cultivators achieved their status through the accumulation of elixirs.

As for those at the tenth level of Qi Refining, there weren't any.

[Soon, you were assigned to the area reserved for candidates for the Holy Son.]

The spiritual energy here is far richer than in other areas.

You don't need to do anything normally; just focus on your cultivation.

[We will also provide you with pills for the Qi Refining stage, but in strict limited quantities.]

On your very first day in the sect, you were taught the "Art of Yin-Yang Harmony."

[On that very day, someone successfully mastered the first level of the "Yin-Yang Harmony Technique."]

Immediately, the Myriad Flowers Sect instructed that person to select a Foundation Establishment stage female disciple to study the Yin-Yang Harmony Technique together.

But you are very puzzled.

[With the Wan Hua Sect possessing such conditions and resources, why would he take such a great risk to go to the Qian Yun Sect to find the Holy Maiden?]

Despite your doubts, you still carefully selected a female disciple at the Foundation Establishment stage.

After each of the dozen or so people had a female disciple to cultivate with, the Myriad Flowers Sect finally announced the conditions for becoming a Holy Son:

Whoever reaches the tenth level of Qi Refining first will be the Holy Son.

You'll naturally be very happy to hear that.

After all, you can reach the tenth level of Qi Refining anytime you want.

But you didn't do that.

The selection of a Holy Son by the Myriad Flowers Sect is shrouded in mystery.

You've decided to wait.

After all, as someone with the same five-elemental-roots but ultimately useless spiritual roots, you know just how slow cultivation with five-elemental-roots is.

Just as you predicted.

[Even the other two candidates who were at the ninth level of Qi Refining, after a year in the sect, failed to break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining despite practicing the Yin-Yang Harmony Technique.]

[However, in this year since joining the Myriad Flowers Sect, you have taken another big step forward in reaching the tenth level of Qi Refining.]

[In the fourth year, you are 22 years old.]

[Judging by the time, the covenant Zhang Erdan mentioned is almost here.]

You've decided to no longer keep it.

After practicing with your Foundation Establishment female disciple, you immediately pretended to have broken through to the next level, displaying a cultivation level of the tenth level of Qi Refining.

Soon, the transmission elders of the Myriad Flowers Sect arrived upon receiving the news.

[After confirming that you are indeed at the tenth level of Qi Refining, it is hereby announced that you are the new Holy Son of the Myriad Flowers Sect.]

The elder immediately took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to the Foundation Establishment female disciple who was paired with you.

The female disciple was overjoyed.

You think to yourself, "No wonder she worked so hard when she was partnered with me; there must be a reward for it."

Once you reach the tenth level of Qi Refining, you will be taken to an area with richer spiritual energy to cultivate.

The Myriad Flowers Sect didn't make any demands on you either.

[Every day, you'll have a female disciple at the late Foundation Establishment stage as your partner.]

Within a month, you had experienced the power of the Myriad Flowers Sect.

The Myriad Flowers Sect actually has at least thirty inner disciples at the late Foundation Establishment stage.

You can't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both admiration and reflection).

The master who created the "Yin-Yang Harmony Technique" was truly a genius.

[Despite such intensity, your body showed no signs of depletion.]

[A year has passed, and you've taken another big step on the path to the tenth level of Qi Refining, but you're still a step away from the perfection of Qi Refining.]

[In the fifth year, you are 23 years old.]

This year marks the year of the Sacred Covenant of the Myriad Flowers Sect.

Every month, the elders of the Myriad Flowers Sect will check your cultivation progress.

One month before the Holy Covenant, the Transmission Elder transmitted a cultivation technique called "Primordial Yin Technique."

Now you understand why Zhang Erdan risked going to the Thousand Cloud Sect to attack the Holy Maiden.

The "Primordial Yin Technique" uses the primordial yin energy of a virgin to enhance one's cultivation.

Furthermore, the higher the virgin's cultivation level compared to yours, the greater your gains will be.

Upon seeing this, Yang Mu immediately understood why Zhang Erdan had taken such a risk:

Zhang Erdan must also be in the late stage of Qi Refining, or even the tenth level of Qi Refining.

Even at the tenth level of Qi Refining, he wasn't sure if he could reach the pinnacle of Qi Refining before the Holy Covenant.

Therefore, he had to take the risk.

However, he may have used some secret method to suppress his cultivation to the early stage of Qi Refining.

He wanted to use this "Primordial Yin Technique" to get the Holy Maiden's help in his cultivation.

If he succeeds, Zhang Erdan could very well achieve Qi Cultivation Perfection in a single day.

After Zhang Erdan completes his Qi cultivation, he will return to the Myriad Flowers Sect to participate in the Holy Covenant, supplemented with Foundation Establishment Pills.

Zhang Erdan has a very high chance of successfully establishing his foundation.

He was then the first Foundation Establishment Saint Son of the Myriad Flowers Sect in a hundred years.

However, I have now taken his place.

Thinking of this, Yang Mu felt a surge of pride: No wonder out of the three thousand miscellaneous disciples of the Thousand Clouds Sect, I have the best relationship with you!

It was all destined.

You young man, you can't grasp such a lucky break!

Yang Mu was in a great mood and looked at the simulation again:

[You know, the Ten Thousand Flowers Sect passed on the "Primordial Yin Technique" to you because of the Holy Covenant.]

However, what you don't understand is that this "Primordial Yin Technique" seems to only benefit men, and doesn't seem to offer any benefit to the other side.

In other words, the Myriad Flowers Sect did all of this to create a Holy Son.

[To achieve the status of a holy son with five useless spiritual roots?]

[The Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flowers Sect is an eighteen-year-old cultivator with an Earth Spiritual Root!]

Her cultivation talent is comparable to that of the Holy Maiden of the Thousand Cloud Sect!

Despite your doubts, you showed no sign of aversion!

[Soon, a month passed, and the day of the covenant arrived.]

You have finally met the Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flowers Sect.

To your surprise, you are informed that the female sect leader of the Myriad Flowers Sect, a Golden Core stage cultivator, will observe the Holy Covenant.

[So that when you break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, we can draw upon a sufficiently rich supply of spiritual energy.]

[Increases your chances of successfully establishing your foundation.]

Although you are somewhat eccentric, you can't afford to worry about much else in order to successfully establish your foundation.

Soon, the covenant began.

For some reason, the Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flowers Sect seemed completely oblivious to everything.

This has greatly boosted your spirits.

[Under this emotional state, your cultivation level has visibly improved.]

Three hours later, the Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flowers Sect was completely exhausted.

[But you feel you're still a little short of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.]

It was just a tiny bit short.

At this moment, the Golden Core Sect Master of the Myriad Flowers Sect spoke up:

"Then let me lend you a hand!"
