Returning to the courtyard at the peak of the mountain, Chu Fengmian imdiately saw the Xuan Bei Saint standing in the middle of the courtyard.
“Master.”
Chen Zou, standing to one side, also spoke softly.
“You’re back, good, having completed the task I entrusted to you, you can now truly be called my disciple of Xuan Bei,” said the Xuan Bei Saint as he sized up Chu Fengmian, a hint of satisfaction apparent in his eyes.
“You did well, completing the task of slaying that demon within a week’s ti, faster than I had anticipated.”
“That is to say, you still had strength hidden during the entry-level assessnt.”
The gaze of the Xuan Bei Saint suddenly fixed firmly on Chu Fengmian, who felt the Spiritual Sense of the Xuan Bei Saint enveloping him.
It seed as if he intended to see through everything about Chu Fengmian.
Chu Fengmian hurriedly concealed his Divine Veins, doing his utmost to keep the Battle Dragon Technique hidden.
In front of a Saint like Xuan Bei, Chu Fengmian had no confidence to conceal it all, but these were matters of great importance.
Even though the Xuan Bei Saint was now his master, Chu Fengmian dared not reveal everything to him.
Within the Nine Domains, to vie for opportunities, not to ntion between master and disciple, even fathers and sons would kill each other.
The only people Chu Fengmian trusted were his master of his past life, the Sword Dao Master, and his fellow disciples.
Everyone else, Chu Fengmian never trusted.
“There’s no need to be so tense.
It’s natural for you to hide your strength, and it would be foolish to reveal it all,” the Xuan Bei Saint chuckled as he observed Chu Fengmian’s nervousness.
“Although I am your master, I have no intention of ddling in your fortuitous encounters.
Rest assured, I’m not so petty as to covet a disciple’s fortune.”
The laughter of the Xuan Bei Saint finally eased Chu Fengmian’s tension.
The Spiritual Sense projection from the Xuan Bei Saint had seed like he intended to scrutinize Chu Fengmian, but he, in fact, did not genuinely attempt to see through Chu Fengmian’s fortune.
“As for your conflict with the Chu Clan, I won’t interfere; you must handle it yourself.
But if those old geezers from the Chu Clan dare to take action, I won’t sit idly by!” the Xuan Bei Saint declared with a cold huff.
The aning in his words seed to indicate dissatisfaction with Chu Hongsha’s recent actions.
For an elder to bully the younger generation and exert his influence was indeed sowhat disgraceful.
“Thank you, Master,” said Chu Fengmian hurriedly.
As he had surmised, while the Xuan Bei Saint wouldn’t engage in the conflicts between Chu Fengmian and the younger generation of the Chu Clan, should any old-tir from the clan at the level of Controlling Wind Realm dare to act, the Xuan Bei Saint would not remain indifferent.
Hearing the Xuan Bei Saint’s words, Chu Fengmian was filled with imnse joy.
The Xuan Bei Saint, although indifferent, cared greatly for his disciples.
Seeing how Chen Zou had suddenly acted, at least within the Wu Sheng Academy, the Xuan Bei Saint would protect Chu Fengmian.
As long as no elders of the Controlling Wind Realm intervened, who among the younger generation of the Chu Clan could possibly be a match for Chu Fengmian?
The Xuan Bei Saint looked at Chu Fengmian and began to speak.
“However, you should not underestimate the current young generation of the Chu Clan.
The real geniuses among the Chu Clan’s young generation are not in Wu Sheng Academy but are cultivating in the Holy Land.
You might not be able to defeat them with your strength.”
“Oh?”
Chu Fengmian expressed his surprise.
Was there soone among the Chu Clan’s younger generation who could contend with him?
Knowing that even Chu Qianjue was no match for him, it was significant that the Xuan Bei Saint said such things, considering Chu Fengmian’s strength.
“Could it be one of the Core Disciples of Wu Sheng Academy?”
Chu Fengmian inquired out loud.
The true geniuses of Wu Sheng Academy were not actually among the Inner Sect Disciples, but rather the legendary Core Disciples.
Crown Prince Zhi Lingtian, one of the most renowned disciples, was among these Core Disciples.
As for the Core Disciples, there were nurous rumors within Wu Sheng Academy, but Chu Fengmian had only heard of them and lacked detailed understanding.
“Yes, Inner Sect Disciples actually don’t amount to much in Wu Sheng Academy.
It is the Core Disciples who are the true geniuses,” nodded the Xuan Bei Saint.
“The Chu Clan has been able to stand tall in Wu Sheng Academy for a thousand years; naturally, it isn’t as simple as you’ve seen.
The two most outstanding disciples of the Chu Clan are actually among the Core Disciples and are currently cultivating within the Holy Land.”
“I have summoned you today because I want to ask you, do you wish to enter the Holy Land for cultivation?” the Xuan Bei Saint looked at Chu Fengmian, his sudden question thundering forth.
“Holy Land cultivation?”
Chu Fengmian’s eyebrows raised; he had also heard rumors of the Wu Sheng Academy’s Holy Land.
It was said that the Holy Land was actually a relic from Ancient Tis, filled with an extrely dense Spiritual Power, nurous Spiritual dicines, and Spirit Pills.
Any Martial Artist who entered the Holy Land and managed to co out alive would see their strength increase by several levels.
But Chu Fengmian did not know exactly what the Holy Land contained.
“May I ask Master, what exactly is this Holy Land?”
Chu Fengmian asked.
He needed to understand what the Holy Land really was before making a decision.
“So young, yet so cautious,” the Xuan Bei Saint said with a laugh upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s question.
“This Holy Land is just a general term; it’s actually a massive ancient ruin of imasurable size.”
“This ruin was discovered by Wu Sheng Academy and the other four major sects.
As no one could monopolize it, the Saints of Wu Sheng Academy and the four major sects joined hands to place restrictions on it, allowing only fifteen people from each power to enter each year.”
“Within these ruins, lie countless relics from the Ancient Tis and a damaged Earth Vein, which is extrely rich in Spiritual Power.
Just cultivating within it, even without any fortuitous encounters, one would find the cultivation speed to be more than ten tis faster than outside.”
Having said this, the Xuan Bei Saint again addressed Chu Fengmian.
“Do you wish to go to this Holy Land?
With my influence, securing a spot for you would not be difficult.”
“Your disciple wishes to go,” replied Chu Fengmian earnestly.
Setting aside everything else, the very mont he heard about the broken Earth Vein, Chu Fengmian decided he must enter.
An Earth Vein contained what seed to be an endless supply of Spiritual Power; even a damaged Earth Vein likely contained the Spiritual Power equivalent to countless Qi Gathering Pills, perhaps even more.
Currently, the thing Chu Fengmian lacked the most was Spiritual Power; for the sake of this damaged Earth Vein, he was determined to make the journey.
Moreover, with ancient ruins inside, Chu Fengmian would potentially encounter great fortunes once within.
