Breakthrough to the Eleventh Layer of Qi Refining?

Goodness, no wonder only Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang has become a disciple of the Ling Luo Peak Master so far.

It’s clear that breaking the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao isn’t easy. Even Senior Sister Donggong Mingyue, with her innate thunder spiritual body, hasn’t achieved this goal yet.

It’s obvious how despairing this condition must be for ordinary people.

Lu Yi sighed inwardly. The Ling Luo Peak Master spoke again, “So, what do you think? Are you willing to accept? If you don’t want to accept, you can go down and find an elder to take you as a disciple.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master lazily leaned on the soft couch, looking drowsy, without any intention of forcing Lu Yi.

Hearing this, Lu Yi didn’t immediately respond but instead spoke to himself in his heart, “I want to become the registered disciple of the Ling Luo Peak Master.”

[Mission]

Become the registered disciple of the Ling Luo Peak Master (0/1)

Reward: Foundation Establishment Technique "Concealment Technique," Supreme-Grade Flying Artifact Wind Breath Boat, Five Drops of Thousand-Year Spiritual Dew, One Drop of Fire Spiritual Liquid

Accept Mission: Yes/No

Lu Yi was utterly shocked upon seeing the rewards.

Goodness, such high rewards again?!

Since taking the mission to meet the Ling Luo Peak Master, Lu Yi had felt something was off.

Why did it feel like all tasks related to the Ling Luo Peak Master came with such high rewards?

Was it because the Ling Luo Peak Master was exceptionally powerful? Or was it because the Ling Luo Peak Master had extraordinary talent?

Lu Yi thought that he might not fully understand the potential rules behind the panel’s task rewards.

Perhaps the stronger and more talented the person involved in the task, the higher the rewards?

Thinking of this, Lu Yi recalled Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang. Previously, the task to make Liu Ningshuang fall in love with him also had outrageously high rewards.

Could this be another reason?

Lu Yi then thought about Donggong Mingyue, and his mind filled with bold ideas.

With this in mind, joining Ling Luo Peak and becoming a disciple of the Ling Luo Peak Master seemed like a great plan.

Whether it was the Ling Luo Peak Master, Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang, or Senior Sister Donggong Mingyue, all of them were exceptionally talented. Wouldn’t this be a perfect opportunity to farm task rewards?

Lu Yi already imagined himself adorned with countless immortal artifacts in the future, feeling overjoyed.

Lu Yi silently accepted the task and then said, “I’m willing to accept!”

The Ling Luo Peak Master glanced at Lu Yi, the corners of her lips curving into a slight smile. “Since that’s the case, you are now my registered disciple, just like little Mingyue. Once you break through the Heavenly Dao limit, you’ll become an official disciple.”

Lu Yi quickly bowed respectfully and said, “Master.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master shook her head and said, “You’re not my official disciple yet. Just call me Peak Master.”

Lu Yi suddenly understood. No wonder Senior Sister Donggong Mingyue called the Ling Luo Peak Master ‘Peak Master.’ It was because she was still a registered disciple.

Lu Yi promptly said, “Yes, Peak Master.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master nodded in satisfaction. With a casual wave, a green longsword and a talisman appeared before Lu Yi.

“Although you’re only a registered disciple, there’s still a gift for becoming my disciple. This is the high-grade artifact Green Spirit Sword, suitable for you. The talisman is a Thousand Mile Talisman. When you encounter danger, inject spiritual energy into it to teleport a thousand miles away and avoid danger. For cultivators like us, facing enemies and battles is inevitable. Survival is the most important thing—only by staying alive can you have a future.”

Lu Yi was delighted. Wow, two gifts just for becoming a disciple? This was a massive gain.

He had to admit that the Peak Master’s thinking aligned with his own. He also disliked unnecessary risks. After all, in his previous life playing games, wasn’t it said that survival ensures output?

Lu Yi happily accepted the Green Spirit Sword and Thousand Mile Talisman, smiling as he said, “Thank you, Peak Master.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master nodded slightly, yawned, and said, “If you have any questions, ask little Mingyue. As for cultivation resources, take whatever you need for your practice. Just say I allowed it. But don’t waste them—Ling Luo Peak still has other disciples.”

Lu Yi was stunned. Did this mean he had unlimited access to resources?

This wasn’t a registered disciple; even a direct disciple might not get such treatment!

Suddenly, Lu Yi felt that the Peak Master looked even better, even in her half-asleep state.

At this moment, Lu Yi thought of something and asked, “By the way, Peak Master, what if I encounter problems with my cultivation?”

The Ling Luo Peak Master paused, her expression showing slight hesitation before she said, “Ahem… Since you’re my registered disciple, you can naturally come to me.”

She added, “But… don’t come too often. At most, once a month. Otherwise, it’s too tiring.”

Lu Yi: “…”

He gained a new understanding of the Peak Master’s laziness.

Fortunately, he didn’t expect any major issues with cultivation. The task rewards would cover everything.

Lu Yi reassured himself and said, “Understood. Thank you, Peak Master.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master nodded. “That’s all. Follow little Mingyue to pick a cave dwelling nearby.”

Donggong Mingyue stood up and looked at Lu Yi with joy. “Junior Brother Lu Yi, we’re officially fellow disciples now! Let’s go. I’ll show you the cave dwellings!”

Lu Yi nodded. “Okay.”

At this moment, the Ling Luo Peak Master suddenly remembered something. She looked at Donggong Mingyue and said with a sly smile, “Little Mingyue, didn’t you deceive me earlier?”

Donggong Mingyue froze and turned stiffly, forcing a laugh. “Peak Master, I had no choice back then. You weren’t responding to me.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master snorted. “So what? Deceiving me deserves punishment! Go buy me a box of Magnolia Pastries!”

Donggong Mingyue’s expression twitched as she reluctantly agreed, “Okay…”

Seeing Donggong Mingyue’s aggrieved look, Lu Yi felt a bit guilty since she had gotten into trouble because of him.

He couldn’t just stand by, so he said, “Peak Master, how about I go buy it instead?”

The Ling Luo Peak Master glanced at Lu Yi and smirked. “Oh? Already defending little Mingyue? Fine, you go.”

Donggong Mingyue was surprised but soon smiled brightly. “Having a junior brother is great! Thank you, Junior Brother!”

Lu Yi smiled. “No need to be so formal, Second Senior Sister. It’s what I should do.”

The Ling Luo Peak Master yawned again. “Also, buy a jug of Magnolia Wine. Go ahead, I need to sleep… I mean, cultivate.”

Lu Yi: “???”

You definitely just said you wanted to sleep, right?!

Lu Yi felt numb. How did someone this lazy become the most brilliant genius in the White Cloud Sect?

Still, thinking of the rewards, Lu Yi decided it was worth it.

Lost in thought, Lu Yi followed Donggong Mingyue out.

Outside, Donggong Mingyue smiled. “Junior Brother, I’ll show you the cave dwellings first, then we’ll buy the wine and pastries.”

Lu Yi nodded. “Thank you, Second Senior Sister.”

Donggong Mingyue pouted. “No need for formalities. Just call me Mingyue or Senior Sister!”

Lu Yi went along. “Senior Sister.”

Satisfied, Donggong Mingyue said happily, “Let’s go find you a nice cave dwelling close to mine!”
