A blinding light devoured the sky, causing the entire sect to tremble violently.
Waves of spiritual energy spread in every direction before slowly fading away.
Chen Feng finally removed his hand from the Spirit Stone.
Elder Wen Fian looked at him with shock still visible in his eyes.
“You possess a top-tier Spirit Root,” Wen Fian said slowly.
“However, you also have dual elemental affinity.
Because of that, your cultivation speed will be slower than normal, reducing your talent to the level of a medium-tier Spirit Root.”
He paused for a moment before continuing.
“But your two elements are extremely rare… Light and Darkness.
Both are incredibly powerful.”
Chen Feng silently listened while Chen Ling stared at him in disbelief.
At that moment, Meilin stepped forward with a smile.
“Chen Feng, Chen Ling, let us head toward Azure Cloud Peak.
Master is waiting for your arrival.”
She waved her hand, and a shining Spirit Sword appeared in the air.
“Get on.”
The two quickly stepped onto the flying sword and bid farewell to Elder Wen Fian.
As the Spirit Sword flew across the sky, Meilin began introducing the sect to them.
“The Heavenly God Sect has four main peaks.”
She raised four fingers.
Azure Cloud PeakBlood Thunder PeakNine Heaven PeakUnyielding Peak
“The Azure Cloud Peak is the strongest among them,” Meilin proudly said.
“Our master is the Vice Sect Leader and also the strongest expert within the Heavenly God Sect.”
The Spirit Sword soon descended before a massive ancient gate covered in mysterious runes.
“We will first visit the library,” Meilin explained.
“You two need to select your cultivation techniques and martial arts.”
Outside the library gate sat an old man in plain robes.
Despite his ordinary appearance, an invisible pressure surrounded him.
Meilin respectfully bowed.
“Greetings, Elder Zhou Fan.”
She then turned toward Chen Feng and Chen Ling.
“This is Elder Zhou Fan, the second strongest elder in the sect.
There are seven elders in total, and every one of them possesses terrifying strength.”
Elder Zhou Fan slowly opened his eyes and looked at the two newcomers.
“You may enter,” he said calmly.
“But you are only permitted to access the first three floors.
You have two incense sticks worth of time.
Choose your techniques wisely.”
Chen Feng and Chen Ling immediately entered the enormous library.
Rows upon rows of ancient books filled the hall.
Chen Feng carefully searched through the shelves until his gaze suddenly stopped at an old black-golden book hidden in the upper section of a shelf.
The moment he looked at it, a strange attraction filled his heart.
He slowly pulled it out.
“Ancient Demon and Heavenly God Body Cultivation Technique.”
For some unknown reason, the book seemed to call out to him.
Without hesitation, he kept it.
Afterward, he continued searching and eventually found another technique.
“Void Cultivation Technique.”
Satisfied with his choices, Chen Feng left the library alongside Chen Ling.
The two respectfully bid farewell to Elder Zhou Fan before boarding the Spirit Sword once again.
Soon, towering mountains covered in clouds appeared before them.
At the center stood a majestic palace radiating icy spiritual energy.
Azure Cloud Peak.
The group landed before the main hall.
Meilin respectfully bowed toward the palace entrance.
“Master, the new disciples have arrived.”
The hall doors slowly opened.
A breathtakingly beautiful woman stepped out.
Her white robes fluttered gently in the wind, and her cold yet elegant aura made her appear like an immortal goddess descending from heaven.
Meilin spoke softly.
“This is our master, the Ice Goddess Bai Ruyu.”
Bai Ruyu looked toward the two disciples and revealed a faint smile.
“I am Bai Ruyu,” she said calmly.
“From today onward, you are disciples of Azure Cloud Peak.”
She then turned toward Meilin.
“Take them to their quarters.
After such a long journey, they must be exhausted.”
“Yes, Master.”
Meilin guided them toward two small huts standing beside each other near a bamboo forest.
“You can choose whichever one you like,” she said.
Chen Feng selected the hut on the left while Chen Ling took the other.
After entering his room, Chen Feng immediately sat on the bed and took out the techniques he had chosen.
“There is no time to rest,” he muttered excitedly.
“So this is cultivation…”
His eyes burned with anticipation.
Opening the Void Cultivation Technique, Chen Feng slowly began circulating spiritual energy according to the instructions written inside.
The moment he started cultivating, a powerful surge of energy erupted within the room.
The surrounding spiritual Qi rushed toward him like a storm.
Darkness and light energy slowly began swirling around his body…
And deep inside his dantian, something ancient seemed to awaken.
To Be Continued…
