Ye Han curiously took the bag of Spirit Stones, estimating there were around 50 of them.
Actually, Ye Han had no idea that someone had been following Xia Ziyun, because she hadn't told him about it.
"It's Spirit Stones! Oh my goodness, if I had that many Spirit Stones, it would be enough for me to Breakthrough to spirit refining realm."
"Sigh... Don't even think about it. In a small place like ours, you still expect to have so many Spirit Stones?"
The people who hadn't left yet looked enviously at the Spirit Stones in Ye Han's hand.
Spirit Stones were the currency of exchange among cultivators; gold and silver were far from comparable to the price of Spirit Stones.
Because Spirit Stones were naturally formed, they could help cultivators cultivate.
There were good and inferior ones; the difference between Low-Grade Spirit Stones and Mid-Grade Spirit Stones was 1:100.
The same applied to Mid-Grade Spirit Stones and High-Grade Spirit Stones, as well as High-Grade Spirit Stones and Top-Grade Spirit Stones.
Ye Han glanced at Lin Feng, nodded, and then walked into the Sect.
Lin Feng was about to say something when Ye Han sent him to the bottom of the Rebirth Ladder.
"It seems I can only visit this Senior again next time..."
Lin Feng thought to himself. As for age?
Don't look at Ye Han's youthful appearance; who knows how long he has lived? Even a Core Formation expert could live for 500 years.
[Congratulations, Host, for successfully recruiting the second Disciple. You are hereby rewarded with spirit refining realm cultivation.]
[One Aptitude Enhancement Card, one Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact, and the opening of Alchemy Peak.]
"Awesome!"
Ye Han thought to himself, and the Qi on his body also jumped from qi refining to spirit refining realm.
Xia Ziyun, who was following behind Ye Han, revealed an expression that confirmed her suspicions.
She knew Ye Han was pretending to be low-key. How could anyone jump from qi refining to spirit refining while walking on the path?
To this, she only wanted to say: Sect Master really knows how to play...
As for Ling Yun... he followed Ye Han without a word.
He only stopped when they entered the Sect hall.
"Ling Yun, regarding your talent, I don't have a solution for now, but I can let you Cultivate first."
Ye Han's words made Ling Yun's body tremble uncontrollably.
"Sect... Sect Master, are you serious? For the past two years, Ling Yun has tried many Cultivation Techniques, but none of them could gather even a trace of Spiritual Qi..."
"Indeed, you Cultivate first!"
Ye Han shot a ball of light towards his forehead.
In the latter's mind, the Cultivation methods for Eternal Star Art, Void Roaming Step, Star Fist, and Sword Control Technique appeared.
"Sect... Sect Master, Divine... Divine Rank?"
Ling Yun's eyes flashed with disbelief, and he looked at Ye Han in shock, speaking with a stutter.
"Cultivate in peace. Since you have joined my Sect, there is no need to think too much!"
Ye Han just wanted to go back and check the rewards, and by the way, improve his Aptitude.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
A glint flashed in Ling Yun's eyes, then disappeared.
No one knew that the original Ling Yun had already died two years ago, and he was now the Soul of a Great Cultivator from distant past.
He wanted to Cultivate his previous cultivation Technique, but the Meridians of this body were broken, making it impossible for him to Cultivate for life.
He knew many Spirit Pills that could restore Meridians, but... he was just an ordinary person now.
What was the use of knowing? As for coming to Eternal Star Sect, he came with a hopeful mindset.
"Ling Yun, that's the male Disciple Pavilion. Just pick one and settle down.
That's the Gravity Room. If you feel your Cultivation is slow, you can try it inside."
Ye Han pointed at the male Disciple's dormitory, then pointed at the Gravity Room for the two of them and said.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The two bowed respectfully.
Ye Han was the first to disappear from the spot, a move that left Ling Yun greatly shocked.
"Domain... Domain Lord?"
Ling Yun was still thinking of recovering his Supreme Divine Art to help Ye Han, but he didn't expect him to actually possess Domain Lord cultivation realm.
It seemed that he wouldn't be able to help Ye Han in a short time.
Xia Ziyun nodded to Ling Yun and returned to her Disciple Pavilion, as aloof as ever.
Ling Yun looked determinedly at the direction Ye Han had left, then turned and walked towards the male Disciple Pavilion.
As soon as Ye Han returned to the Sect Leader Pavilion, he eagerly asked the system.
"System, hurry, hurry! Aptitude Enancement Card!"
There was nothing he could do; his one-star Cultivation talent was as slow as a turtle, and he hoped two stars would be better.
Whoosh.
The Aptitude Enhancement Card in the system Space disappeared, and Ye Han's Aptitude was displayed as two stars.
He felt that the speed of Spiritual Qi absorption was twice the original, no wonder everyone valued Aptitude and talent so much.
With the same Cultivation time, others were just faster than you. What could you do?
"System, what is that Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact? And Alchemy Peak?"
"Medium Grade Spiritual Artifacts can increase a Martial Artist's attack power. There's a big difference between having a Spiritual Artifact and not having one.
As for Alchemy Peak, it's a special main Peak dedicated to refining Medicinal Pills for Eternal Star Sect."
"What you're saying is like saying nothing at all. I know Alchemy Peak is for Alchemy just by its name."
Ye Han said in annoyance. Isn't this just teasing him? Alchemy Peak, Alchemy Peak, if you don't do Alchemy, do you do Artifact Refining?
"Except for Sect Leader Peak, the Disciples of other main Peaks are not so strict; they only need to have Alchemy talent."
The system said, ignoring Ye Han's tone.
"That good? So, that means, among the entire Sect, only my Sect Leader Peak is this bad?"
Ye Han's mouth twitched slightly. Why were the requirements for Disciples of Sect Leader Peak so strict?
"Hey... Wait... I seem to be able to recruit Elders! And that Alchemist!"
Ye Han grew happier the more he thought about it!
"The most urgent task is still to recruit a chef! I'm practically starving to death!"
For the past two days, Ye Han and Xia Ziyun had been living off the only remaining food in the Sect.
Not only was it unpalatable, but it was also almost gone!
Just then, the system reminded Ye Han.
"Host, there are three Core formation experts fighting outside!"
"Hmm? Core formation experts? What are they doing in this small place?"
Ye Han said in confusion, then disappeared from the spot and reappeared at the Sect entrance.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance, what caught his eye were three half-human, half-beast men, desperately attacking a man and a woman.
The man looked Middle-aged Man, and the woman was only about fifteen years old; they appeared to be father and daughter.
Because of the Rebirth Ladder, these two had no retreat.
"Qian Qian, I'm sorry, this time father can no longer protect you!"
"No... Daddy, don't say that. Qian Qian will die with you. Qian Qian doesn't want Daddy to protect her anymore, boo hoo hoo~"
The girl named Qian Qian said with a tearful face.
"Stop struggling. Hand over the Huazun Pill and Wan Ling Art!"
The tiger-headed beast-man coldly rebuked.
"You wish! You slaughtered my entire clan! I'd rather die than give it to you!"
Qian Qian's father glared furiously at the tiger-headed beast-man.
"Huazun Pill? Wan Ling Art?"
Ye Han said in confusion. The Huazun Pill might be a Medicinal Pill for Core formation cultivator to advance to Nascent soul, but what was this Wan Ling Art?
"Never mind, they're already at my Sect's entrance. If I don't show off a bit, I'll feel uncomfortable."
"Hmph! That's not up to..."
"You beasts, where do you get the guts to act so presumptuously in my Eternal Star Sect's territory?"
Ye Han's appearance directly interrupted the tiger-headed beast-man's words.
The latter was about to scold, how dare a mere human meddle in his affairs?
But the next moment, the three of them watched in terror as Ye Han instantly moved in the air.
This was instant movement that only a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator could control. Although they didn't know why Ye Han only flashed such a short distance.
It didn't affect their fear at all!
