Gou Refining Essence into Qi in the Dharma-ending Age

Chapter 15 A Little Bit of Powerful Willfulness: Lin Chao Reverses His Way to Power

Superior-grade physical constitution may seem to be only one level below mid-grade, but in reality, the difference is as vast as an insurmountable chasm.

The efficiency of spiritual practice cannot be generalized.

Chen Changming, the Sword Sect elder in charge of testing innate talent and recruiting disciples, never expected that someone with superior innate talent would come.

They were disciples with cultivation, clearly driven out by other forces.

Even those with superior physical attributes are driven away; this is a truly "wealthy" power.

Even though the era of spiritual extinction is about to end, a person with superior innate talent can still be nurtured as a foundation if they enter the Lesser Immortal Realm and wait for the spiritual energy to recover.

Lin Yuan already knew his own physical attributes, so he wasn't particularly excited.

The old man in front of him was too excited and grabbed his arms so hard that they hurt, and he couldn't get rid of him.

This old man is very strong; he is most likely a high-level expert in the Fetal Breathing Realm, and may even have successfully absorbed Qi.

Chen Changming seemed to realize he had become too emotional and released his grip: "I am Chen Changming, an elder of the Sword Sect, responsible for recruiting and guiding new disciples. Little fellow, what is your name, and where are you from?"

This was the first time Lin Yuan had been called "little guy," but considering his lifespan as a high-level Nascent Soul cultivator, it might not be a problem. He replied, "Elder Chen, my name is Lin Yuan, and I come from the Lin family of Hongshan."

Hongshan is the name given to Linjiaxianshan by outsiders.

The immortal mountain of the Sword Sect is called Qingyu Mountain.

"The Lin family of Hongshan?" Chen Changming's expression immediately turned strange.

Lin Yuan could understand that expression.

Clearly, the unethical behavior of the Lin family's higher-ups is no longer known only within the Lin family.

It's likely that the surrounding powers already know something about it.

Before he could speak, Chen Changming continued, "That's not right. Even the Lin family wouldn't expel someone with a superior-grade talent, especially a decent one, from the family..."

Lin Yuan did not hide anything and said, "Elder, the root bone I tested in the family is of medium grade."

Chen Changming suddenly realized, and murmured, "That's not surprising, that's not surprising!"

Another victim of internal strife.

However, it's quite good for the Sword Sect.

After recruiting disciples for so long, the Sword Sect has finally received its first disciple with superior innate talent.

Therefore, he did not hesitate at all and immediately said, "Since you're here, don't leave. The Sword Sect is your home."

Lin Yuan laughed.

The elder's words were quite interesting.

However, his goal was indeed to join the Sword Sect.

Therefore, he nodded and said, "Thank you, Elder."

Chen Changming's smile deepened, and he said, "I'll take you up the mountain now."

Lin Yuan shook his head in refusal and looked at Lin Chao and Wang Qiu, saying, "Elder, I came with two other people. May we wait for them?"

He had a lot of confidence in Lin Chao and felt that he would definitely pass.

As for Wang Qiudao, I don't know.

However, you should definitely choose to say things that sound nice.

Upon hearing this, Chen Changming was taken aback. He looked at Lin Chao and Wang Qiudao and noticed that they were not in line. He immediately realized that the two wanted to enter the sect through the practical test.

However, there were simply too many people participating in the actual testing.

There are at least forty or fifty people ahead of them, and if they have to wait, it will be a long time.

Chen Changming considered himself a very upright person, but today he decided to use some of his power.

"You two go first!"

Directly recruiting someone into the sect is definitely not an option, but as long as they're not particularly bad and you've taken a look, it's not impossible.

Upon hearing this, none of the people in line dared to object.

They never expected that a person with superior physical attributes would appear today.

Such a person will definitely be valued by the sect.

But you absolutely must not offend them.

Lin Chao came to his senses. He hadn't expected Lin Yuan to have superior-grade aptitude, but he felt no jealousy whatsoever. Instead, he was quite happy and spoke to his master, Tianyun: "Master, Brother Lin Yuan has superior-grade aptitude. He'll definitely be valued now."

Tianyun was also somewhat surprised. This time, he did not refute, but responded in his heart: "You did well before. A person with a superior root bone will be a good helper for you if they cultivate."

Yes, he was surprised, but he didn't think Lin Yuan was as good as Lin Chao.

Lin Chao possessed an extremely formidable talent within the special system he had acquired unintentionally, even surpassing the Heavenly Grade Root Bone.

But at least it wasn't completely useless.

Lin Chao didn't pay attention to these words, but was very happy and immediately stepped forward: "Brother Lin Yuan, congratulations! You will definitely become a great cultivator in the future."

Although Wang Qiudao already knew the outcome, he couldn't say so, so he pretended to know nothing and stepped forward: "Congratulations, Brother Lin Yuan! Will you take care of me in the future?"

"Innate talent isn't everything. The future is uncertain. Who knows, you two might be better than me in the future!" Lin Yuan said modestly.

Wang Qiudao was surprised that Lin Yuan was so calm.

However, he was somewhat pleased to hear this.

Despite being a transmigrator, he still harbored some pride.

Have a vision!

Having latched onto Lin Chao's coattails and benefited from the information gap, he might not necessarily be bad off.

Lin Chao was still smiling.

Hearing the conversation between the three, Chen Changming decided to lower Lin Yuan and Wang Qiudao's demands even further.

Being able to capture the heart of a superior person is a very worthwhile deal.

Since their Sword Sect has made the decision to recruit disciples, they will not be stingy with the spiritual energy of the immortal mountain.

It's just two more people.

Because of a little bit of arbitrariness in power, the test for Lin Chao and Wang Qiudao began quickly.

First is Lin Chao.

The first step in practical testing is to test one's level of understanding.

This process is essentially a test of the abundance of spiritual energy within the body.

Lin Chao was diagnosed with a fetal respiration level 1.

Chen Changming's expression didn't change much when he saw this level of cultivation.

This has nothing to do with Lin Yuan.

Since it's a real-world test, these things won't matter.

In Lin Chao's mind, Tianyun's voice kept ringing: "Disciple, your situation is special. The test showed that you are only at the first level of the Fetal Breathing Realm. The requirements for this realm will definitely be higher, so you need to perform better. However, you cannot reveal all your trump cards. You need to grasp the degree of this yourself."

In his view, Lin Chao could kill even a level one or two level of the Fetal Breathing Realm, let alone a level one or two, and could even fight against a level four level of the Fetal Breathing Realm.

However, some things cannot be fully exposed, otherwise it will cause trouble if they attract attention.

He was unaware that Lin Chao had already turned around and latched onto Lin Yuan's coattails.

As long as your performance is acceptable, you can get started.

"Yes, Master!" Lin Chao replied.

Lin Chao then entered the prepared testing area.

"First level of embryonic breathing. You need to defeat ten wooden dummies. Test begins." A mechanical voice rang out, and immediately ten wooden dummies rushed towards Lin Chao.

Lin Chao's gaze immediately changed.

He was a swordsman, and seeing the ten wooden figures, he neither retreated nor avoided them, but went to meet them head-on.

Many people who were also going through real-world testing were surprised to see this.

"Is he... insane? Why isn't he pulling me?"

"Tsk tsk, it seems that going through the back door is not necessarily a good thing. Without seeing other people's actual combat, being too reckless will most likely lead to defeat."

Many people are not optimistic about Lin Chao.

However, the result was astonishing.
