Chapter 1215: Chapter 1215: No Need to Start Over
An Yuhong originally ca to chat with Kong Ziyi, without any other intentions.
She didn’t even know that Kong Ziyi was a descendant of Master Sumiao — at that ti, not even Kong Ziyi herself knew.
Outside of the Taiqing Sect, there might have been such speculation, but it was limited to forces like the Golden Core families; within Taiqing, there was none.
When she heard Feng Jun’s assessnt, she didn’t take it to heart, thinking it was just a matter of excessive yang energy that could be reduced. Although she hadn’t noticed it before, she was now aware of it—actually, even if she hadn’t known, soone else would have discovered it after she returned.
Of course, it would also be normal if it was never discovered, since she was only responsible for guidance, and aptitude evaluation wasn’t her domain.
After all, Taiqing is too large, and there are too many talents encountered, even too many geniuses who were delayed, and no one pursued responsibility.
After all, in the process of cultivation, talent is only one of the elents for success, not the entirety.
So she could always calmly listen to the other party — the forr junior sister was already at the fifth level of transcendence, and still willing to acknowledge her as senior sister, so she had to show respect to those whom her junior sister cared about.
Speaking of which, the young man is quite good-looking, but unfortunately, he’s a loose cultivator… Wanting to pursue a core disciple of Taiqing, even if you weren’t from the Four Great Sects, you at least needed to have a thousand-acre estate in so large Fang Market.
So she remained calm and watched the other party’s performance.
But at this mont, she got angry and sternly spoke up, “Daoist friend Feng, don’t joke around, I can’t afford jokes.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jun imdiately made up his mind — this person was worth befriending.
Those who candidly said they couldn’t afford jokes were not bad people, according to Feng Jun’s third friendship principle.
So he replied sternly, “If you want to hear the truth, then let speak with you alone.”
Although Kong Ziyi usually seed Buddha-like, she couldn’t help but speak up when she heard this, “Count in too… three people.”
“Count in as well,” Huang Fu Wu Xia chid in, “Sister Zi Yi, I ca here with hundreds of thousands worth of Cultivation Techniques to support you and almost got robbed… won’t you let listen in?”
Kong Ziyi really wasn’t good at dealing with rchants; she’d never encountered soone as thick-skinned as Huang Fu Wu Xia in the Taiqing Sect, so she glanced at An Yuhong, “Sister Yuhong, you decide.”
An Yuhong wasn’t good at handling these things either, so she looked at Feng Jun, “Let’s have Daoist friend Feng decide.”
Feng Jun was unwilling to bear such responsibility and spoke earnestly, “What I want to say concerns you; whether or not you let them listen should be up to you. Are you sure you want to decide?”
At this point, An Yuhong finally took the matter seriously. She looked around and saw quite a few idle male cultivators, and after hesitating for a mont, she said, “Everyone else leave, but Daoist friend Qiu can stay.”
Feng Jun couldn’t help but glance at Qiu Shangren — wow, you’re quite the player.
Qiu Daoist blushed, “Yuhong, you always make jokes about , is it fun?”
The two indeed knew each other but weren’t close; back in the day, Qiu Shangren had a higher cultivation level than An Yuhong and had helped her, even rejecting her advances, but back then, they were all Qi Refinent Realm ants.
Things should have been let go by now, who would have thought it would be brought up again?
But An Yuhong nodded, “Then it’s the five of us. I do want to hear what Mountain Master Feng has to say, about why it’s such a big deal for .”
There were three female masters present, along with Feng Jun and Qiu Shangren… making five people in all.
“Reaching this point with the gold attribute isn’t easy,” Feng Jun said seriously, “Of course, you can deny it.”
“I’m not a gold attribute,” An Yuhong couldn’t help but say, but upon hearing the last part, she stopped talking.
“Others might think you have a San Cai Wind attribute, which is why Taiqing valued you,” Feng Jun smiled indifferently, “But you appear to be a San Cai Wind, when in fact you possess a gold attribute. I believe you are aware of this.”
An Yuhong shook her head, “I’m not aware.”
“Say whatever you like,” seeing her denial, Feng Jun stopped being polite, “Originally, it would have beco your bottleneck at the ti of forming your core, but it’s clear that you practiced a gold technique in recent years, causing gold energy to enter your body, am I not correct?”
An Yuhong’s face darkened, while Kong Ziyi looked at her in disbelief, “Is it latent fierce wind gold?”
Latent fierce wind gold is a peculiar physique that appears to be wind attribute but gradually reveals its gold attribute when wind techniques are practiced, but changing foundation techniques isn’t sothing anyone can do easily.
For the Taiqing Sect, a latent fierce wind gold physique is known as the most useless physique without equal.
If one were a loose cultivator, they could change techniques midway, but in the Taiqing Sect, the wind attribute technique is one of the strongest. Switching to a gold attribute technique is utterly devastating.
But such latent physiques are not only rare, but the Ascension Mirror can’t detect them. Since they only affect individual cultivators, their impact on the sect isn’t significant, so no one develops instrunts specifically to test for this physique.
—In the Cultivation World, there are many strange physiques, and those that don’t cause severe consequences are seldom pondered over.
However, based on Feng Jun’s words, Kong Ziyi guessed this physique — no wonder Senior Sister An wouldn’t acknowledge it.
Senior Sister An stood up abruptly upon hearing this and spoke harshly, “No, Junior Sister, don’t listen to his nonsense.”
Her voice, although stern, carried a slight tremor — this was sothing she had always worried about.
If it were proven to be latent fierce wind gold, her status in the sect would plumt instantly — who would care about a cultivator without prospects?
Honestly, if soone else had said this, she might have killed them on the spot. Even if Kong Ziyi was her good junior sister and had a higher cultivation level, she would chastise her harshly.
But currently, Kong Ziyi held Master Sumiao’s token, so she dared not put on airs as a senior sister.
She could only turn to Feng Jun and speak coldly, “Daoist friend Feng’s jokes stop now… I already told you, I don’t like jokes.”
Feng Jun shook his head and earnestly replied, “I’m not joking. You’ve already tried to break through to the fourth level of transcendence but failed… in fact, the gold attribute has beco even more pronounced, am I wrong?”
“You’re non…,” An Yuhong initially tried to interrupt, but midway through she sighed deeply.
Qiu Shangren didn’t understand the implications of latent fierce wind gold, but Huang Fu Wu Xia had heard a bit. She took out a manual, flipped through it for a while, then closed it with a sigh, “Mountain Master Feng, you’re spoiling soone’s future.”
She finally understood what latent fierce wind gold ant for a Taiqing disciple.
Qiu Shangren timidly asked, “Does this… is it serious? I can promise to keep it a secret.”
He was a bit regretful of his curiosity.
But An Yuhong didn’t respond; she sat there dumbly, evidently heavily affected — the secret she’d carefully guarded was finally out. At this mont, her heart was full of endless regret: why did she learn the Fine Gold Cone Technique back then?
Even if she was indeed carrying the latent fierce wind gold attribute, if she couldn’t form her core as Feng Jun suggested, it wouldn’t be a big deal. In Taiqing, there are dozens of cultivators stuck at the ninth level; one more wouldn’t make a difference.
At this mont, Kong Ziyi spoke up, “Senior Sister An, don’t panic. I could return to ask our master for help; maybe there’s a way.”
“What way,” Senior Sister An waved impatiently, then realized her mood was inappropriate.
She forced a smile, “Forgive my bad mood, Junior Sister. There’s no need to comfort , this isn’t a novel case in our sect, many masters have tried calculations, but there’s no way. At worst, I’ll disperse my cultivation and start again.”
At this point, soone cleared their throat, “Is it that severe?”
An Yuhong looked over, seeing that it was Feng Jun speaking, and rolled her eyes, not deigning to reply.
But Kong Ziyi’s eyes lit up and eagerly asked, “Mountain Master Feng, do you have an idea?”
She then turned to An Yuhong, “Senior Sister, Mountain Master Feng has extraordinary insight and dical skills, you should seek his advice.”
“Him?” An Yuhong looked at Feng Jun skeptically. To be honest, at the mont she really disliked him, but she didn’t want to give up any possible hope, “That’s sothing even real masters couldn’t solve.”
But Kong Ziyi was firmly convinced, “Senior Sister, believe , just because the masters couldn’t doesn’t an he can’t.”
She herself was a living example; the Chaos Yin-Yang Curse that puzzled her grandmother for years was sothing he might cure — at least he accurately diagnosed it.
“Then… pardon ,” An Yuhong hesitated and then bowed, “Since this is a significant matter, I was a bit out of line just now. Please forgive any offense, Mountain Master Feng.”
“Doesn’t matter,” Feng Jun waved his hand with indifference. Soone who confessed to “not being able to take jokes” didn’t really annoy him, “This latent fierce wind gold you ntioned, I’m not familiar with it, but if the gold attribute is present, why not cultivate it too to resolve the issue?”
An Yuhong rolled her eyes — is this what you call “not serious”?
Kong Ziyi frowned slightly, “Mountain Master Feng, the wind attribute in Taiqing is rare, and re-cultivating the gold attribute would an dispersing cultivation… at least fall back to the Qi Refinent Realm.”
“There’s no need to disperse cultivation,” Feng Jun looked at her doubtfully, “Just temper the gold attribute, right?”
“There’s no need?” Kong Ziyi’s eyes suddenly brightened.
An Yuhong was even more excited than she was, “Mountain Master Feng, how should the gold attribute be tempered?”
Seeing their excitent, Feng Jun pursed his lips, considered, and then said, “I’m not clear on what specific Cultivation Techniques Taiqing has, but I can give a suggestion… you can cultivate the Thunder Technique, as Thunder can refine gold!”
This was the conclusion he reached after trying out possible matches — among the techniques Tiantong prepared, there were two common Thunder Techniques suitable for her.
