57: life-saving skills

"This—" Yang Lin paused, pondered for a moment, then focused and said, "While such situations are rare, they are not unheard of..."

Upon hearing this, Lei Hongyun also nodded and continued:

"You are right. Such cases are not unheard of; there are precedents even within the Menial Service Yard."

"Most people begin the Awakening of their cultivation potential at fifteen or sixteen years of age."

"However, some people may develop their physical potential later, resulting in a delayed Awakening."

"These individuals might suddenly have a breakthrough one day in the future, where their cultivation talent improves drastically, transforming them from mediocre individuals into a Genius."

"The youth who mastered the Vajra Fist might be in such a situation."

Focusing his mind, Lei Hongyun continued:

"However, his combat power is simply too outrageous. As you said, he defeated the Xiantian Third Level Zhao Yong with just one punch."

"Such a thing is somewhat inconceivable; at the very least, I have not found a reasonable explanation for it yet."

Hearing this, Yang Lin thought for a moment and said, "Is there a possibility that when he had his sudden breakthrough, he also happened to awaken some kind of natural Divine Power?"

"Uh—" Lei Hongyun paused, stunned for a long while.

Eventually, he nodded and said, "That seems possible as well."

Natural Divine Power and the like have existed since ancient times, so it is not particularly strange.

"Then..." Yang Lin looked at Lei Hongyun with an inquiring expression.

Lei Hongyun thought for a moment and said, "Natural Divine Power is a plausible explanation, but even with natural Divine Power, there is nothing special to arrange."

"How about this: just like that young girl earlier, investigate this youth's background thoroughly. If there are no issues, just let him join the Outer Sect."

"It is clear that this youth has extraordinary talent and will likely achieve something in the future."

"However, there is no need to pay too much attention to him; everyone has their own Opportunity."

"What we can do is provide a stage for them to grow better and faster."

"Beyond that, we must also guide them at critical moments to prevent them from going astray."

"As for the rest, they must grasp it themselves."

"The Elder is right." Yang Lin nodded thoughtfully.

Everyone has their own path to walk.

It is best to let nature take its course.

There is no need for excessive interference.

"And regarding cultivation resources—" Yang Lin hesitated.

"The Spirit Stone allowance will be three times that of a regular Outer Sect Disciple, and they may exchange for one Cultivation Technique and one Martial Skill for free. This applies to both of them. Leave this matter to you to handle; you may go now."

After speaking, Lei Hongyun waved his hand to dismiss Yang Lin.

"Understood, Yang Lin takes his leave!" Yang Lin nodded solemnly and turned to leave.

At the same time, Lei Hongyun's voice rang out again:

"Remember, verify their identities properly; we cannot have any more slip-ups like last time."

"Yang Lin understands!" Yang Lin nodded solemnly and pushed the door open to leave.

As for identities, they are actually investigated thoroughly when everyone joins the sect.

At this point, one only needs to pull up the files and take a good look.

Of course, for the sake of caution, Yang Lin still decided to have someone investigate again.

This matter is not troublesome.

Yuxu Academy's influence spans across Blue Star.

Results will be available in at most a day or two.

The slip-up last time referred to Lin Yiyi's identity.

After the incident with Liu Jian, Yuxu Academy immediately launched an investigation.

Eventually, they found clues confirming that Lin Yiyi's identity was forged.

Of course, the other party used sophisticated methods, and it is suspected that a powerful force was supporting them from behind, erasing the traces for them.

As a result, Yuxu Academy has not made much progress for the time being.

And the person involved, Liu Jian, also suddenly left the academy, his whereabouts unknown, and he could no longer be contacted.

...

Menial Service Yard.

Upon returning home, Mo Fan closed the doors and windows and took out the Spirit Stone reward obtained from the Promotion Assessment.

Immediately, the Virtual panel lit up, and a prompt box slowly appeared.

【Discovered Low-Grade Spirit Stone * 20. Can be absorbed and converted into attribute points. Absorb?】

Mo Fan decisively chose yes.

Then, the Virtual panel flashed again.

The Spirit Stones in the jade bottle instantly vanished without leaving a trace, as if they had never existed in the first place.

Mo Fan tossed the jade bottle into the system space, his expression focused as he used his consciousness to connect to the Virtual panel to check his attribute information.

【Name: Mo Fan】

【Cultivation: Body Tempering Seventh Level (+)】

【Cultivation Technique: Basic Body Tempering Art】

【Martial Skill: Vajra Fist - Body Tempering Scroll, Golden Body Art (First Layer)】

【Storage Space: 1 cubic meter】

【Available attribute points: 97】

The available attribute points had increased from the previous 77 to 97.

"97 points, huh..."

Mo Fan took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to add points.

His current cultivation progress speed was too fast, making it easy for him to be targeted.

He might even already be targeted right now.

But there was no other way.

Mo Fan did not want to waste time in the Menial Service Yard.

He could only act a bit special.

Of course, he had also considered it carefully.

Although his cultivation speed was somewhat fast now, it was still within an understandable range.

After all, it was only the Body Tempering Realm; as long as one had good cultivation talent and sufficient cultivation resources, rapid improvement could be explained.

The only thing difficult to explain was the fact that he was originally a cultivation failure, but now he had suddenly become a cultivation Genius.

However, it was not a big problem.

A sudden breakthrough or Awakening of cultivation talent was not unheard of.

As long as his identity was clean, Yuxu Academy would only treat him as a Genius and would not make things difficult for him.

Of course, it was limited to that.

If he were to perform even more freakishly...

Mo Fan did not dare to be certain what would happen.

Even if the higher-ups did not pay special attention to him, it would be easy to be targeted by malicious people.

In that case, trouble would surely be endless.

Thinking of this, Mo Fan shook his head: "I should remain steady in the future."

"If only I could alter my cultivation aura at will like Lin Yiyi, that would be perfect."

"When others are amazed that I am standing on the third floor, in reality, I am already standing on the fifth, or even the seventh floor. That would be interesting."

Thinking of this, the image of Lin Yiyi could not help but appear in Mo Fan's mind.

Eventually, he shook his head and smiled wryly: "Whether we can meet again is another matter."

"Instead of pinning my hopes on Lin Yiyi's Breath Concealment Art, I might as well look forward to the Outer Sect."

Mo Fan shook his head and stopped overthinking.

Once he went to the Outer Sect, there would certainly be more opportunities, and he might unexpectedly gain something.

It was a pity that he still had to wait three days to officially enter the Outer Sect.

Just at this moment, Mo Fan was suddenly stunned; as if he had thought of something, he quickly took out his phone and made a call.

However.

"The number you have dialed is switched off. Please try again later. Beep—"

Mo Fan: "..."

Why can't I reach this girl again?

He still wanted to ask his daughter if she had any Breath Concealment Art or the like.

After all, since she came from the future, it would make sense for her to have mastered some Advanced Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills.

Of course, Mo Fan also wanted to pass the Golden Body Art to her.

After all, it is a life-saving divine skill.

However, the Peerless Secret Chapter is a matter of great importance; it must wait until they meet. It is not safe over the phone.

"Forget it, I'll wait until she returns. I'll Cultivate first."

Composing himself, Mo Fan sat cross-legged and entered his state in a second, naturally and smoothly circulating the Golden Body Art Breathing Technique.

...

At the same time.

At the boundary between the Outer Sect and the Inner Sect.

A low mountain range shrouded in clouds and mist, with five-colored rays of light occasionally bursting forth, stood silently.

If one observed carefully, they would find an ancient, nearly hundred-meter-tall tower on the cloud-shrouded peak.

And those five-colored rays of light that burst forth from time to time came from the high tower.

In front of the high tower stood a one-meter-tall stone tablet.

The stone tablet was covered in moss.

Faintly visible, engraved with three vigorous characters: Trial Tower.

A breeze blew past.

Two sword lights arrived one after another, finally stopping in front of the stone tablet.

A female Disciple in a green dress and a stunningly beautiful young girl wearing modern clothing stepped down from their Flying Swords respectively.

"Is this the Trial Tower?" Glancing at the stone tablet, Mo Yingying focused slightly.

"Yes, this is the Trial Tower," said the female Disciple in the green dress.

"Thank you for your trouble, Senior Sister," Mo Yingying said with a smile.

"It is part of my duty. The time has just arrived, and the Magic Array inside the tower has taken effect. Junior Sister, you can enter the Trial Tower now," the female Disciple in the green dress said with a smile.

"Okay." Mo Yingying nodded and stepped towards the Trial Tower.
