Chapter 7
Receiving his disciple insight of foundation building ,
Lin Sheng entered a retreat of 3 months to perfect his foundation , although it did not make him stronger ,
his bottleneck at the peak of nascent soul will be less difficult .
Mu Tian, almost 30 years old ,still looked like a young man full of vitality and liveliness .
After stabilizing his realm he goes to see his master but Lin Sheng was in Cultivation and Mu Tian did not bother his master and goes to learn more formation since his soul has sublimated ,
it was now more easy for him to make complex formations and variations.
For now he decided to concentrate only on the five elements formation,
formation that only applies to the five elements of Wood , water , fire , earth and gold.Each with their own characteristics.
Wood was filled with resilience and vitality ,
water with softness and continuousness ,
fire with destruction and burning ,
earth with defense and solidity
and finally gold with sharpness and cutting.
The mix of these formations could bring endless possibilities and Mu Tian still had a lot to do to complete his second peak inheritance of formation.
Maybe because of his constitution but Mu Tian was happy learning formation and was not bored at all .
He could advance his rank so rapidly because his master only has him has a disciple and Mu Tian enjoyed all the resources alone .
In other peaks , with hundreds of disciples, the competition is fierce and sentiment is almost non-existent.
The master of the peak only looked at talent and cultivation realm or merit made by the disciples before distributing resources .
Mu Tian often goes to small competitions to earn specific resources and for fame .
Mu Tian is lively and often goes to show off his prowess in formation to others but since he shares some tips ,
he is appreciated and cared for .Some elders specialising in formation and almost try to abducted him since his talent was high in formation
but when Lin Sheng did a "friendly" sparring match with these elders , Mu Tian was less deranged .
Although elders did not have obligated missions they could still take some for more merits .
It's been 1 year since Mu Tian has broken through the foundation building and Lin Sheng decided to take a mission to scout the mortal realm and search genius for the sect and by the way a good disciple for himself .
The entrance ceremony is every 10 years but not everybody can traverse a long way to come to the myriad sect
so every 3 years 4 elder goes in different directions of the territory belonging to the Myriad sect and test the spirit roots of mortals and the quality of small cultivator in the territory wanting to join the sect .
Normally 4 colder core elders do the mission. But when Lin Sheng proposed to do it ,
it was approved immediately after all he could take more than 15 golden core peaks at the same time without trouble .
Although the territory is somewhat safe some evil or demon cultivators are hiding and roaming in the territory and need a golden core to lead the disciple to the sect without mishap .
Lin Sheng had to visit hundreds of dynasties and some subordinate sects to see if some genius were willing to come to the Myriad sect .
He was riding his own mount, the immortal crane with late stage golden core power .
A prestigious mount fond and domesticated in the beast peak .
Lin Sheng took his time to visit the mortal world and pick various geniuses for the sect .
He did not need to do it personally, he only needs to give the spirit root stone to the dedicated personnel and wait for the result
It took nearly 4 months to tour most of the territory and Lin Sheng had hundreds of young mortals with him on his mount,
most of them with limited talent . Near the end he was alarmed that a super genius was found with a special physique .
He immediately goes there and then
-Ding, a genius as been found , please take her as a disciple
Mu Tian was in a good mood and when he arrived there was already a commotion made by her talent and the news spread fast.
-It's bad we need to return to the sect immediately, if some old monster learns of it they could try to plunder her talent or possess her body.
After all ,Lin Sheng was powerful in the nascent soul stage but not in the God transformation . They could kill him with a slap .
Without waiting, Lin Sheng took the youth on his mount and went directly back to the sect at full speed .
In mid way Lin Sheng sensed a formation ahead and thanks to his disciple insight he was now a 4 rank formation master and could avoid the ambush ,
when they saw this the masked cultivator attacked directly but they were only in the golden core realm not knowing a master a nascent souls powerhouse was aboard .
They only saw a sword light coming straight at them and without doing anything ,they were already dead .
-Huump , overeating yourself .
The mortals were scared but the powerful immortal with them was reassuring .
The rest of the road was uneventful and when he crossed the formation around the sect ,Lin Sheng could be at ease .
He sends the youth to the outer court elder to manage and goes back to the five element peak with this genius .
With more time to look at her and the prompt by the system he learned that her constitution was named the spirit Phoenix physique .
It confers a strong power and immunity over flames and the aptitude of a young Phoenix meaning , she is a super genius . Her name is Hua Feng .
Hua Feng was looking at Lin Sheng with admiration and fervor , she wanted such power .
Lin Sheng was pleased with this since he brought her directly to his peak for apprenticeship before other elders could start to poach her .
Being the one to recruit her in the sect he has the advantage but he could sense some shameless elders coming this way to make her their apprentice.
Wasting no time Lin Sheng said :
- Hua Feng are you willing to become my disciple
- yes I am willing . And she knelt down for the ritual of master disciple relationships.
Swing this the other elders who came could only congratulate Lin Sheng for finding a good disciple and they return back to their own peak
Lin Sheng explains the 3 rules of the five element peak
1- respect your master and ancestor
2- no killing allowed in the sect
3- no bullying of others with lower status
-If you can't respect them I will punish you myself , is it clear to you
-Yes , I will obey the rules
-Good , at the five element peak you can cultivate a sub profession of your choice and the master will take care of your cultivation technique .
If you are not sure I recommend alchemy , a profession with the most wealth and useful for your master .
You can still choose at will if you like another one .
-Ill choose alchemy, thank you master for your guidance
-You have a senior brother who will teach you the basics and take you to change your identity and choose a suitable alchemy technique.
He lives in the cave just across my residence and is named Mu Tian .
Go choose a residence and come to me when everything is done
-Yes , I will do so
-Mu Tian come to my residence ,said Lin Sheng with divine sense communication with his disciple
After a cup of tea , Mu Tian was next to his master and listening to his instructions regarding his new junior sister .
A happy news for him, now a senior brother.
