Chương 17: Chapter 17: Qingxuan Sect Master Murong Yue, Shen Mo Benefiting from a Strong Backer
Very soon, only a few people were left here, including Zhang Weihut and Zhao Rou.
Zhao Rou and the others looked at Zhang Weihut eagerly, "Senior Brother Deacon, what about our portion?"
Zhang Weihut couldn't help but laugh, "Next time... This is an uncontrollable factor. I will ask the Elder to refine more portions for you."
At this moment, Shen Mo's consciousness gradually became clear, and he slowly landed.
Zhao Rou's cheeks were flushed as she hurriedly brought over her disciple robe for Shen Mo to cover himself.
Shen Mo scratched his head, "Thanks... What just happened?"
Zhao Rou quickly recounted everything that had happened.
Even retelling it, she felt her heart racing.
Even the sect master, who had been in seclusion for years, was alarmed by Shen Mo.
Shen Mo's future was boundless.
'I must cling tightly to this thick and sturdy support!'
Shen Mo hadn't expected that awakening his constitution would trigger such a shocking phenomenon.
"The Scorching Sun Flame Body, it really is a heaven-grade constitution, and it's top grade at that!"
He sighed inwardly.
With this, he could become a disciple of the sect master.
No matter what plans the Lei family had, they wouldn't dare to make a move against him.
Offending him was equivalent to offending the Qingxuan Sect Master.
How could a small Lei family dare to provoke such a figure? They would be utterly annihilated!
Zhang Weihut approached Shen Mo enthusiastically, "Junior Brother Shen, come, come, let's go to the Dining Hall for a big feast, my treat!"
Shen Mo smiled slightly, "Alright, I'll accept your kind offer."
That day.
An astonishing piece of news swept through Qingxuan Sect like a hurricane.
A disciple had awakened a heaven-grade constitution!
However, no one knew who that disciple was.
For Zhang Weihu, Zhao Rou, and the others, this feeling of knowing the answer but being unable to say it was extremely frustrating.
Night fell, Shen Mo was sitting cross-legged on his bed, adapting to his awakened constitution.
"My life panel has changed."
Shen Mo looked at his life panel, lost in thought.
[Name: Shen Mo.]
[Realm: Major achievement stage Qi Condensation Realm]
[Fate: Son of Pharmacist, Innate Wisdom, Sword Dao Enthusiast, Slightly Fortunate.]
[Destiny: Ultimately cultivates to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Dies in five years during the Divine Sword Sect's attack on Qingxuan Sect.]
[Recent Opportunity: Today, formally becomes a disciple of the Qingxuan Sect Master.]
"Divine Sword Sect... I've never heard of it. It seems I need to brush up on the major forces around here."
"I was supposed to die peacefully before, but now I will die in the sect's conflict..."
"I get it, it's related to my status."
"Before, I was just an ordinary disciple of Qingxuan Sect. Even if Divine Sword Sect won, Qingxuan Sect disciples would just become Divine Sword Sect disciples."
"But now it's different. I've awakened a heaven-grade constitution and been accepted as the sect master's disciple."
"If the sect master fights to the death against Divine Sword Sect, as the sect master's disciple, I've already been branded with Qingxuan Sect's mark. Divine Sword Sect definitely won't let me go."
"Even if I'm willing to surrender to Divine Sword Sect, their disciples wouldn't want to see me join and take away resources meant for them. They'd secretly eliminate me on the battlefield!"
Shen Mo pondered for a moment and figured out the whole situation.
"I didn't expect that becoming stronger would drag me into even bigger conflicts." He smiled wryly, then quickly firmed his resolve, "However, I can intercept opportunities, which is the biggest variable."
"This predetermined fate will definitely be broken by me!"
Knock, knock, knock!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
He opened it to find Zhao Rou, whom he had seen during the day.
Zhao Rou smiled sweetly, "Senior Brother Shen, the sect master has summoned you."
"Where to?"
"The mountain top."
"Also, Senior Brother Shen, I've picked up a new inner disciple robe for you from Elder Wu." Zhao Rou handed over a brand new inner disciple robe.
Shen Mo was surprised. His disciple robe had been burned when he awakened the Scorching Sun Flame Body.
He had planned to get a new one tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Zhao Rou had brought one for him.
Shen Mo asked in confusion, "You know my size?"
Zhao Rou blushed, "I could tell."
Shen Mo nodded, "How many spirit stones? I'll pay you back."
Zhao Rou blinked, "Consider it a small gift from me to Senior Brother Shen. If you feel like it, you can give me a small gift in return next time."
Shen Mo nodded, "Alright, I'm pretty good at cooking. I'll make you some noodles sometime."
After parting with Zhao Rou, he headed to the mountain top.
At the top of the mountain was a plain courtyard.
It was very different from the luxurious halls hidden among the green trees on the mountainside.
Shen Mo lightly knocked on the courtyard door, "Sect Master, disciple Shen Mo requests an audience."
A clear and bright female voice came from inside, like a stream passing through a stone forest, "Come in."
Shen Mo opened the courtyard door and saw an ordinary little courtyard.
There were a jujube tree on each side, each with a pond, with goldfish swimming in them.
A beautiful woman in a sea-blue palace dress stood with her back to him, trimming the dead branches of the jujube trees.
When the sect master appeared earlier, Shen Mo was awakening his constitution and was completely unaware of what was happening outside.
So, this was his first time seeing the Qingxuan Sect Master.
Shen Mo gazed at the back of the beautiful woman, feeling a sense of awe.
This sect master, with her captivating figure and voluptuous beauty, exuded a charm that seemed to stir others' nerves with every move.
But when the beautiful woman turned around, her stunning face and cold expression made Shen Mo's heart skip a beat.
Passionate like fire, cold as ice—two completely different temperaments coexisted in one person without seeming out of place.
It was quite strange.
Shen Mo instinctively looked at her life panel.
[Name: Murong Yue.]
[Realm: Peak of the Core Formation Stage.]
[Fate: Blessed Star, Peerless Beauty, Fortunate Aura, Untimely Death, Flame and Frost Dual Body.]
[Destiny: Stagnates at the peak of the Core Formation Stage. Five years later, perishes in the Divine Sword Sect's campaign to unify all sects in Xuanjiang Prefecture, fighting to the death alongside Qingxuan Sect, and dies on the highest peak of the Qingcang Mountains]
Shen Mo raised his eyebrows and examined the fate details.
[Blessed Star: Orange Fate. You always encounter good fortune, such as having a powerful mentor and an immensely talented disciple.]
[Peerless Beauty: Orange Fate. Your appearance is stunningly beautiful, always attracting the attention of the opposite sex.]
[Fortunate Aura: Orange Fate. Luck surrounds you, and those closely related to you also experience better fortune.]
[Untimely Death: White Fate. Due to treachery around you, you will die early in your prime.]
[Flame and Frost Dual Body: Purple Fate. Your fire and ice spiritual roots are exceptionally advanced, making cultivation in these attributes doubly effective.]
The opportunities required the strength of a Core Formation Stage cultivator to obtain, so Shen Mo did not look further.
"Murong Yue perishes alongside Qingxuan Sect, and I also die in this conflict. It seems the fate of Qingxuan Sect is quite grim," Shen Mo thought deeply.
Through the life panel, he had gleaned much useful information.
"Shen Mo, from now on, you are my disciple. I have never taken a disciple before; you are the first and will be the last," the beautiful woman said indifferently.
Shen Mo was stunned and quickly nodded, "Thank you, Sect Master!"
"You probably don't know my name. I am called Murong Yue. From now on, address me as Master," the beautiful woman waved her hand.
"Yes, thank you, Master!"
Murong Yue gazed at him, "You possess a heaven-grade constitution, which is both a blessing and a curse. Do you understand?"
Shen Mo nodded, "I understand."
Having a heaven-grade constitution meant cultivation would be as easy as eating and drinking. As long as no major mishaps occurred, he could potentially reach the Nascent Soul Stage in the future.
Such a world-changing genius would undoubtedly arouse the jealousy of surrounding sects.
Especially those with enmity towards Qingxuan Sect, who wouldn't sit idly by.
"I have ordered everyone to keep silent, but secrets always find a way out. This could take a short or long time."
"In at most three years, your heaven-grade constitution will be known throughout Xuanjiang Prefecture."
"I hope you can grow as quickly as possible within these three years."
"I don't expect you to reach Core Formation in three years, but you must at least cultivate to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"The fall of that heaven-grade genius back then will not be repeated under my watch!"
Murong Yue finished speaking and handed over an ancient ring and a jade pendant.
"This low-grade storage ring contains three hundred mid-grade spirit stones, thirty bottles of Qi Condensation Pills, fifty bottles of Healing Pills, fifty bottles of Qi Recovery Pills, fifty bottles of Detoxification Pills, and a copy of the Blazing Sun technique, including my insights while cultivating it. All these are yours."
"Additionally, there is a book inside detailing the friendly and hostile forces of Qingxuan Sect. Make sure to study it."
"This pendant contains the power of three full-strength attacks from me. It can save your life."
"Thank you, Master." Shen Mo accepted the jade pendant and storage ring, feeling quite pleased.
Having a powerful mentor felt great.
Spirit stones and pills were sent his way without hesitation.
A storage ring was a valuable item.
It contained a small independent space.
As long as it wasn't a living thing, anything could be stored inside.
A low-grade storage ring was worth a thousand low-grade spirit stones, equivalent to ten mid-grade spirit stones, making it quite expensive.
Ordinary people couldn't afford it.
Yet, Murong Yue had directly given him a low-grade storage ring.
As for the jade pendant, its value was even more immeasurable.
Outer and inner elders would likely scramble to buy it.
After all, it contained the full-strength attacks of a Core Formation expert like Murong Yue!
"The situation in Xuanjiang Prefecture is also recorded in that book. Read it thoroughly and remember it," Murong Yue said casually.
"Yes."
Shen Mo nodded.
The country he was in was called Great Jing.
Great Jing consisted of nine provinces.
This place was Xuanjiang Prefecture.
It was named after the Xuanjiang River that flowed through it.
How large Xuanjiang Prefecture was, how many cities, how many sects, the exact status of Qingxuan Sect, and the strength of the Divine Sword Sect were all unknown to him.
After all, his former self had grown up in Qingshan City and came to Qingxuan Sect when he was a bit older, never having been anywhere else.
"Alright, continue your cultivation. I don't like teaching disciples and won't impose on you," Murong Yue waved her hand.
Shen Mo was even happier.
Not being overly supervised was even better!
"Yes, I'll take my leave now." Shen Mo bowed and left.
Murong Yue continued trimming the jujube tree.
After a long time, she sighed softly.
"After being in seclusion for so long, the sect has become so corrupt... Even my attempt to appoint a fifth true disciple was jointly rejected by the elders."
"The sect is full of factions and entangled interests. Any rash move could provoke a strong backlash. If I insist, I might be forced into opposition..."
"But if I do nothing, the sect will continue to decay..."
"What should I do?"
"Master was right; my indecisive nature makes me unsuitable to be the sect master..."
