Cultivation: But Not a Game
Chapter 447 - 314: The Benefits of a Celestial Immortal’s Teaching, Enlightenment Once Again
"You probably don’t stand a chance in this assessment."
"I know."
"But you don’t need to be discouraged. You’ve just started, and there’s a long time ahead. Based on past experiences, the master will custom-tailor assessment methods for you in the coming years, just like he did for us back then." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Oh! That’s good."
Su Yu felt relieved and quietly watched several senior brothers and sisters step forward one by one to demonstrate their understanding of the Five Elements Skill to the master.
A ball of flame arose in the palm of the eldest brother and swiftly transformed into a firebird.
The firebird was lifelike, with distinct feather lines, and its pupils were flames of a different color than its body, moving with an extraordinary liveliness as if bestowed with life.
Su Yu scrutinized it carefully, assessing in his mind and realizing that he could achieve the same.
The mastery of the Fire Element Law by the Red Dragon +20, even if it didn’t reach +20 in his true form, was still the Flame Law, allowing his control over flames to reach an absurd level. Being lifelike was just the start; that was truly imbuing flames with life, though not for long, but it was perfectly viable for combat.
The flames dispersed and coalesced again, forming a stream of water that transformed into a lifelike fish swimming in his palm.
After water came gold, then earth, and finally wood.
It was clear that the eldest brother excelled most at fire and earth, was average in water and wood, and weakest in gold.
Then, the other brothers and sisters each demonstrated, with their levels appearing not much different.
However, Su Yu himself was too inexperienced to confidently judge which senior brother was the best.
When it was finally Su Yu’s turn, he simply waved his hand and said:
"Brother, I’m good at swordsmanship and close combat. My Five Elements Skill is too poor, so I won’t go up to make a fool of myself."
Since he couldn’t win anyway, it was better to hide his weakness for the time being.
The senior brothers and sisters laughed, and the master didn’t say anything. Looking at everyone, he said:
"The best performance this time is Huai Meng, and this treasure is yours."
With a wave of his hand, a fire banner turned into a stream of fire and fell into the eldest brother’s hand.
"Thank you, Master, for the gift."
Ye Lingfeng nodded slightly and continued to say:
"Next, I need to refine a batch of pills and require a batch of spiritual materials."
With a flick of his finger, a ball of spiritual light burst into seven portions and flew in front of everyone, transforming into a light screen that displayed a series of alchemy materials and the sect contributions that each material could be exchanged for.
The quantities were not large, but all were extremely rare top spiritual materials or even celestial medicines available on the market.
"You have three months. You can deliver the spiritual materials at any time."
After saying this, he shook his duster, transforming into light and disappeared:
"Today’s discourse ends here, disciples may leave."
Once the teacher left, the disciples no longer maintained the superficial harmony. Second brother Qiao Ke was the first to stand up, cupping his hand, and turned into a flash of lightning as he flew out of the hall.
Next, sixth sister followed and left.
Fifth sister Li Zijin turned to Su Yu and asked:
"Brother, shall we head back together?"
"Let’s go together."
The three of them bowed towards the eldest brother, who was in a good mood, and then left the hall together.
On the way back to Red Jade Peak, Li Yingxind said to him:
"The spiritual or celestial medicines needed for the master’s task are available in the market, with a release price 50% higher than on the market. You can collect them outside, or if you don’t have time, you can directly purchase them in the market and still earn some."
"Thank you, Brother, for the advice."
Back at Red Jade Peak, Su Yu opened the panel to check and found that several kinds of medicines on the master’s list were available within the Sea Suppressing Realm, and those that weren’t could be purchased from major guilds.
"I’ll ask others later where these spiritual medicines can be found. If they are too far or difficult to obtain, I’ll just purchase them directly."
In no time, he set this matter aside and shifted his gaze back to the prompt panel, reviewing it from the start when the master began his discourse.
"Tip: You listened to the Celestial Immortal’s discourse and gained 10 billion cultivation points."
"Tip: You listened to the Celestial Immortal’s discourse and gained 10,000 points of Taoism."
There were many such tips, scrolling down there were over a thousand, becoming denser toward the rear until finally, the panel changed from lecture tips to enlightenment tips.
"Tip: You listened to the Celestial Immortal’s discourse, felt enlightened, and entered an enlightenment state."
"Tip: You are currently in an enlightenment state..."
