Dual Cultivation: Ying Yang is way to Chaos-Chapter 296: Recruitment

They not only have stronger laws but also a high concentration of spirit qi, which helps them cultivate through the lower realms of Qi Refinement to Nascent Soul almost blazing fast.

"From Qi Refinement, you start developing your body, and at the Nascent Soul realm, when your soul is born in the truest sense, you are complete as a cultivator. So basically, these are only preparation realms for you to walk on the path of cultivation.

At the Spirit Origin realm, you finally start your journey, and eventually, you face your first real tribulation at the Void Tribulation realm." Lin Feng explained as frequent memories surfaced in his mind.

Every breakthrough and his constant efforts weakened the seal further, giving him deeper understanding of the world and how everything worked.

Hua Ying could not help but sigh. She had no knowledge of such matters. It seemed there was a far deeper meaning behind how cultivation realms were viewed.

She was at the late stage of the Heaven Ascension realm and over a hundred years old, yet she had learned this knowledge from someone who was not even twenty years of age. Were they truly that backward in the cultivation world?

Lin Feng could see what she was thinking and shook his head. "Leave it, aunt. One day you will understand everything. Some are just born with advantages, and it is a universal truth."

Hua Ying smiled. "Humph. You think I am weak enough to be affected by something like that? Anyway, how was your mission?"

Lin Feng smiled when he heard that. "It was fruitful. I think I have cleaned the nearby areas completely."

Hua Ying nodded. "That is good. If you are free, then help me with something."

"Yes, I am free, aunt. What do you need help with?" Lin Feng spoke immediately.

"Go and help with the new recruitments. Due to recent missions, we have gathered many young girls, but we still need to check their aptitude to admit them as disciples."

Lin Feng nodded. They had indeed rescued many children. He himself had saved quite a few. "Alright. Do I have to doit right now?"

Hua Ying nodded. "Indeed. I was going to do it myself, but if you have a way to check their aptitudes, then it would be perfect, as I still need to handle some other matters." She had a feeling he possessed such a method, even with his low realm. That was why she asked him.

Lin Feng nodded. "I can. I will go then." He already knew where the recruitment took place, so he did not need directions.

"Alright. Meet me later," Hua Ying said.

Lin Feng gave a slight nod and flew down.

When he landed near the hall at the base of the mountain, he was met by six disciples who were all at the peak stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

They all had different emblem on their sect robes, showing that each belonged to a different peak of the sect.

When they saw Lin Feng, they were surprised, and when they sensed his cultivation realm, they were stunned. Lin Feng had seen this expression many times whenever he met someone from the Frozen Heart Sect.

"Greetings, Chief Disciple Lin." One of them, belonging to the Refinement Peak, came to her senses first and bowed.

Her voice brought the others back to their senses as well, and they all bowed. "Greetings, Chief Disciple."

Lin Feng returned a slight bow. "It is a pleasure to meet you all. Are you here to recruit disciples for your peaks?"

"Yes, Chief Disciple. We are waiting for Peak Master Hua. She was about to arrive."

Lin Feng shook his head. "Aunt Hua will not be coming. She sent me to determine the aptitudes of the disciples."

This stunned the disciples again. Would that be acceptable? It was not easy to discern the aptitude of young children who had never cultivated before.

These girls did not come from clans or cultivation families who had taught them cultivation methods. Otherwise, spirit-absorbing stones could have been used to test their aptitude.

Teaching them on the spot was also useless, as it took time to understand how to absorb spirit qi.

They looked at one another, but in the end, they did not voice their concerns. It was not their place to question the decision of a peak master. "Shall we begin, Chief Disciple Lin?"

Lin Feng nodded, and they entered the hall. It was completely empty, with only one disciple at the Foundation Establishment realm standing at the opposite entrance. She bowed to them.

"Go bring them, ten at a time."

The disciple nodded and left through the entrance. Soon, it opened again, and ten small girls, looking curious and nervous, entered the hall.

"Seeing them makes me remember my past," The Treasure Peak disciple said, reminiscing about her own self.

"Indeed."

Two other disciples nodded in agreement.

Most of them had been admitted into the sect through this very process.

The Foundation Establishment disciple brought the young girls closer and stopped them before stepping aside.

Lin Feng did not wait. He immediately imbued his eyes with spirit qi, activating a technique that allowed him to examine their compatibility with spirit qi as well as the specific elements their bodies were attuned to.

Everyone was born with an affinity toward an element. Once this affinity reached a certain level, it became a special constitution.

About ninety-five out of every hundred humans had affinity toward the five basic elements known as Fire, Metal, Water, Earth, and Wind.

Lin Feng had many methods to determine their aptitudes. One such method was observing how spirit qi interacted with their bodies.

Even if their bodies had never cultivated spirit qi, they were still breathing it in constantly. Spirit qi entered their bodies before escaping again slowly. The way it escaped was enough to tell him which element they had a higher affinity for, as well as their potential in cultivation.

"Junior sisters, what is the minimum requirement for qualification?" Lin Feng asked, as he needed a benchmark to judge them.
