Gu Han looked at the young girl kneeling on the ground before her, her body trembling slightly, and a flash of satisfaction passed through her eyes.
She lightly raised her hand, and a gentle force lifted Ye Linger up.
"From this day forth, you are the fourth Personal Disciple under my seat."
"Yes! Linger pays respects to Master!"
As soon as Gu Han's words fell, the crisp System notification sound rang out in her Sea of Consciousness as expected:
[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for recruiting the ten-star potential Disciple 'Ye Linger'!]
['peerless immortal seed' Gift Pack (Ye Linger) is being distributed...]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Cultivation Technique 'Taiyin Treasure Codex'!]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining one 'supreme yin divine stone'! (A Divine Stone from the Xuanhuang Continent that can assist the Nine Yin Absolute Meridian in activating its Physique)]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 10,000 mastery value points!]
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining 500,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!]
Gu Han's heart stirred, and the Jade Slip recording the Taiyin Treasure Codex Cultivation Technique appeared in her hand.
The Jade Slip was a deep, mysterious blue throughout, emitting a pure and ancient aura of extreme Yin.
Her Divine Sense sank into it, and a vast amount of information flooded in—
It even recorded several Divine Abilities of peerless power, as well as detailed methods on how to activate the 'Taiyin Divine Body'.
It could be said that this Taiyin Treasure Codex was tailor-made for Ye Linger!
"Linger."
Gu Han looked at the girl before her, who was still unable to hide her excitement with tear stains still wet, and handed over the Jade Slip in her hand.
"This is the Taiyin Treasure Codex; it is perfectly suited for your Physique. As long as you Cultivate diligently, the Great Dao is within reach."
Ye Linger's hands trembled as she took it almost piously.
The moment her fingertips touched the Jade Slip, a surge of excitement came from the depths of her Soul!
It was as if this Jade Slip had been waiting for her to awaken it.
She could even feel her body transmitting an indescribable longing and joy!
"Thank... thank you Master for bestowing the technique!"
Ye Linger bowed deeply once again.
She gripped the Jade Slip tightly, as if gripping her own future.
Gu Han then took out the 'supreme yin divine stone'.
This was a fist-sized, crystal-clear, strange crystal stone with moonbeams and starlight slowly flowing inside.
As soon as it appeared, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and tiny ice crystals condensed in the air.
A chill instantly spread out.
"This is the 'supreme yin divine stone', containing the purest Supreme Yin Origin, which can help you activate your Physique."
Gu Han looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
"Now is the right time; the moonbeams are at their peak, and the power of the Supreme Yin is most active. This will be of great benefit to activating your Physique."
Ye Linger took the 'supreme yin divine stone', which was cold to the touch and seemed to have moonbeams flowing inside.
Feeling the call from the same Origin as her Bloodline, excitement and apprehension intertwined in her heart.
"Master, right here in this courtyard? Won't it cause some commotion?"
She asked somewhat uneasily.
"No matter."
Gu Han said indifferently, her gaze sweeping across this secluded small courtyard.
"With your Master here to act as your Protector, no one will be able to disturb you."
Ye Linger no longer hesitated, having an inexplicable trust in this Master she had just acknowledged.
"Linger understands!"
Gu Han nodded slightly and waved her hand!
In the next moment, piles of Spirit Stones appeared out of thin air in front of Ye Linger, quickly stacking into a small mountain!
The number of these Spirit Stones had actually reached as many as ten thousand!
Ye Linger looked at the Spirit Stones before her, which were emitting a majestic Spiritual Qi and almost drowning her small courtyard, and she was completely stunned.
Her red lips parted slightly, and her clear eyes were full of unbelievable shock!
Ten thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!
This was already equivalent to half a year's income for their Ye Family in Luoxing City!
And her Master had just brought them out so nonchalantly, as if she were just casually taking out a few rocks!
"Mas... Master, this... Disciple..."
Ye Linger's voice trembled, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Gu Han pointed to the flat area in the center of the Spirit Stones.
"Sit on it, circulate the Cultivation Technique according to the contents in the Jade Slip, and guide the supreme yin divine stone to activate your Physique."
Ye Linger looked at her Master's calm and profound eyes, which seemed to contain a sea of stars.
The shock in her heart was gradually replaced by a warm current and determination.
She no longer hesitated, took a deep breath, and carefully climbed onto that small mountain of Spirit Stones.
She sat down cross-legged in the center position.
The cold and moist touch of the Spirit Stones came through, and pure Spiritual Qi spontaneously surged in from beneath her.
Although it still couldn't remain in her Meridians, it made her spirit lift.
She held the supreme yin divine stone in the palms of both hands and placed it at her Dantian in the lower abdomen.
Following the method recorded in the Taiyin Treasure Codex, she closed her eyes, calmed her mind, and began to slowly circulate that profound Cultivation Technique.
At first, there wasn't much change.
But as the technique circulated, a strange resonance was produced—
The supreme yin divine stone seemed to be awakened, and the moonbeams and starlight flowing inside suddenly brightened!
An ice-blue energy visible to the naked eye rose from the Divine Stone.
As if under an invisible pull, it slowly poured into Ye Linger's forehead.
At the same time—
"Buzz..."
The surrounding Spiritual Qi began to grow restless!
With Ye Linger as the center, an invisible vortex was forming.
In the sky, that bright moon seemed to be drawn by some power, and a beam of white light poured down towards this small courtyard!
The moonlight and the light emitted by the Spirit Stones intertwined, turning into dots of crystalline particles that frantically surged into Ye Linger's body.
Such a commotion naturally could not be hidden from the people in the Ye Residence.
The first to be alarmed was Ye Linger's father, Ye Nantian.
He was already feeling unsettled because of his daughter's affairs, when he suddenly felt the Spiritual Qi fluctuations coming from the east side of the residence.
In those fluctuations, there was also a hint of chill!
"This is..."
Ye Nantian was startled and stood up abruptly.
That direction... is Linger's small courtyard!
He didn't have time to think and his figure flashed, disappearing from the room.
Immediately after, others in the Ye Residence were also alarmed.
Figures flew out from their respective courtyards and meditation rooms, looking towards the direction where the Spiritual Qi was gathering with uncertainty.
"Such strong Spiritual Qi fluctuations! Is someone making a Breakthrough?"
"No... this direction..."
"It's that use... it's Ye Linger's small courtyard in the east!"
"Ye Linger? That useless girl with the Nine Yin Absolute Meridian? How could she trigger such a vision?"
"Quick, go and see!"
The members of the Ye Family rushed towards the small courtyard one after another.
However, when they arrived near the small courtyard, they were all stunned and did not dare to take another step forward.
The small courtyard had been shrouded by an invisible barrier.
That barrier seemed weak, yet it emitted a heart-palpitating aura, as if anyone who approached would suffer a devastating blow.
What shocked everyone even more was the scene in the courtyard—
What were they seeing?!
That Ye Linger, who was regarded as the Family's shame and was unable to Cultivate, was currently sitting cross-legged in the middle of a pile of Spirit Stones and Cultivating!!
And the crystal stone floating in front of her emitted an aura that made even their Souls tremble!
"What... what treasure is that?"
A Ye Family Elder's voice was dry, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Linger... isn't she unable to Cultivate? How can the Nine Yin Absolute Meridian Cultivate?"
Another younger Ye Family Disciple murmured, his worldview seemingly under impact.
In the Canglan Continent, since ancient times, the Nine Yin Absolute Meridian has been like a curse.
People with this Physique not only cannot Cultivate, but more cruelly, their lifespan usually does not exceed thirty years!
Ye Nantian stood at the very front of the crowd, looking at his daughter's figure in the courtyard and feeling that aura that was growing stronger bit by bit.
His hands trembled slightly, and his eyes instantly turned red.
As a father, he knew his daughter's pain and unwillingness over the years better than anyone.
And now... his daughter could actually Cultivate!
"Linger..."
Ye Nantian's voice choked.
Just then, everyone's gaze finally moved away from Ye Linger and fell on another person in the courtyard.
That silver-haired woman holding a young girl's hand, standing quietly to the side.
When the eyes of the Ye Family members fell on Gu Han, everyone's breath hitched!
The woman just stood there quietly, not intentionally releasing any pressure, not even glancing at them.
But everyone felt a sense of awe from the depths of their Souls!
As if facing an insurmountable divine mountain, an unfathomable sea of stars!
"This person is..."
A Nascent Soul Stage Ye Family Elder's voice trembled.
He found that he could not see through the other party at all, and could not even feel any obvious spiritual power fluctuations from her!
There were only two possibilities:
Either the other party was a person without any cultivation, or... the other party's Realm was already high to a degree he could not understand!
And anyone with eyes could see that Ye Linger's current changes must be related to her.
With such means, how could she be a person without any cultivation?!
"Senior..."
Ye Nantian suppressed the shock in his heart, stepped forward, and bowed deeply in Gu Han's direction,
"Junior Ye Nantian, I am Linger's father."
"I did not know Senior had arrived, please forgive me for failing to welcome you properly!"
He kept his posture extremely low, his heart full of apprehension and hope.
This mysterious woman had clearly come for his daughter.
Gu Han turned her head, her gaze calmly sweeping over the Ye Family members, finally landing on Ye Nantian.
"This seat is Gu Han, the Master of the Yaochi Immortal Palace."
"Ye Linger has already joined my sect. She is currently Cultivating; those who are unrelated, withdraw."
