1838 The Support of the Sect
Among these people, Chu Yunfan’s strength seemed to be the weakest.
They had to pick the soft persimmons, and Chu Yunfan was that soft persimmon. In the eyes of many people, he was a pushover.
Chu Yunfan had defeated Ye Yin with lightning speed, leaving some people with ulterior motives in the sect speechless and completely shocked. But to the experts outside the sect or even those outside the Central Plains, who felt that they could make it onto the prodigy list, he was still not a threat.
“Is this the intention of the higher-ups?” Chu Yunfan asked.
“It’s fine if the prodigy list is wrong, but since you can defeat Junior Ye, it means that the prodigy list isn’t wrong,” Yang Dengxian said.
“You know that I was previously the only one in the Flying Celestials on the list. Now that you’ve suddenly risen, the higher-ups want to ensure that you don’t lose. If you didn’t lose to Junior Ye, then you definitely can’t lose to anyone else. Do you understand what I mean?”
Chu Yunfan immediately understood what Yang Dengxian meant. To the higher-ups of the Flying Celestials, Ye Yin and Chu Yunfan were both disciples of the Flying Celestials. They were flesh on both hands, and Ye Yin’s status was even higher than Chu Yunfan’s. However, it was a different story when compared to the geniuses of other sects.
Obviously, Chu Yunfan was one of them. In that case, there was no doubt about who he would help. The status of the prodigy list was very important. Not only did many geniuses value the ranking of the prodigy list, but the various large sects also valued the prodigy list very much. This proved the strength of the juniors of the various large factions.
This was one of the battlefields where the various large factions fought openly and secretly.
However, the Flying Celestials were in a very awkward position. Although they were known for being full of geniuses and experts, Yang Dengxian was the only one who could make it onto the prodigy list. The other ten great sects all had at least two or more names on the list.
However, geniuses were not born out of thin air. They needed to be searched for and nurtured. They could not be rushed. This was also why Hua Xianyuan was so valued by the Flying Celestials.
Who would have thought that before Hua Xianyuan could rise, Chu Yunfan had already taken the lead?
“The sect leader also values your ranking very much,” Yang Dengxian said, “It’s precisely because of this that I came to find you personally. I should have been in seclusion already. Of course, the sect will also support you,” Yang Dengxian said.
“You will be given one Flying Celestial Fruit and you’re allowed to enter the sect’s library for ten days. You can read any book you want, and you’re allowed to cultivate in the Illusion Moon Cave for a month.”
Listening to Yang Dengxian’s conditions, even Chu Yunfan couldn’t help but be tempted. Chu Yunfan had eaten one Flying Celestial Fruit before, and it was very beneficial for increasing his cultivation. With the fruit, he should be able to advance further.
The library of the Flying Celestials was even more all-encompassing. It contained many martial arts manuals and notes written by many senior experts regarding cultivation. There were also many handwritten letters.
These were all good things that money could not buy. Martial arts manuals aside, under normal circumstances, no matter which martial arts one exchanged for, it would cost a large number of sect points.
As for those cultivation notes, they were all good things that could only be exchanged for by spending sect points. It could even be said that these were the true essence. In particular, the notes and annotations of many seniors were useful to the later generations, saving a lot of cultivation time. This was also a part of the Flying Celestials’s massive foundation.
There were also many records of what one had seen and heard, as well as many other ancient books. These were all secret manuals that were not to be spread to outsiders. All of these constituted the foundation of the Flying Celestials.
Ordinary people might not care much about these ancient books, but whether it was the education Chu Yunfan had received from the Federation or the memories of the Alchemy Sovereign, they all told him that in the process of cultivation, cultivators were constantly exploring the mysteries of heaven and earth. Every expert with a strong cultivation base was a knowledgeable person with an astonishing amount of knowledge. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were proficient in the arts and geography.
On the contrary, those who only knew how to cultivate and were single-minded to the end would often find it difficult to have high cultivation in the end, because such people often had shallow knowledge.
Chu Yunfan had also read about the Illusionary Moon Cave in the “The World.” It was the holy land of the Flying Celestials. The Flying Celestials was a holy land for cultivation in the eyes of ordinary people and was filled with spiritual veins and immortal energy. The Illusion Moon Cave was the holy land of the holy lands. The spirit energy there was a hundred times denser than the other places in the Flying Celestials.
However, to maintain the spirit energy in it, ordinary people were not qualified to enter it to cultivate. Usually, only those who had made great contributions to the sect could use their points to exchange for the right to enter the place to cultivate.
The most amazing thing about the Illusion Moon Cave was not the density of spirit energy that was hundreds of times higher than ordinary places. Most importantly, the Illusion Moon Cave was a famous place to train one’s mental state.
In the Illusion Moon Cave, the spirit energy was extremely dense. At the same time, it would also produce all kinds of inner demons. These inner demons usually lurked and were usually invisible. They would only suddenly appear at the most critical moment of cultivation. By that time, it was often too late. These inner demons were the flaws of the mind. They could be induced in advance in the Illusionary Moon Cave. By eliminating one inner demon, one’s mental state would be more complete.
The Illusion Moon Cave was a holy land for cultivation that everyone yearned for.
The Flying Celestials were investing a lot in Chu Yunfan. His cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years. Although his cultivation level was stable, his mental state had improved too quickly, which inevitably buried many seeds of disaster. Although he was usually supported by the godhead and would not waver in his state of mind, he could take this opportunity to cut off his inner demons. This way, his state of mind would not contain flaws and prevent him from reaching the peak.
“These are all the sect’s support for you,” Yang Dengxian said, “I only have one request—beat back all the challengers.”
“I understand.” Chu Yunfan nodded. “With the support of the sect, I have full confidence. It won’t be so easy for those people to step on me.”
Yang Dengxian saw that Chu Yunfan understood what he meant. He said, “In that case, I’m going to enter seclusion. I hope that after I come out, I will hear the news that you’ve gained a firm foothold on the prodigy list.”
After saying that, Yang Dengxian stood up and left. He turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.
