Chapter 204 One Month
Zhang Heng's lips trembled; he realized what he had missed.
Lu Yuan actually became an elder. If he were a member of the Zhang family, their entire clan would be able to take off.
Even if it were just him, with the support of an elder, he might have a chance to break through.
They live longer.
But now it's all over. Lu Yuan's attitude last time has already explained everything.
The other party no longer wanted any involvement with the Zhang family.
Thinking of this, his expression turned extremely ugly.
Then, it turned from green to red.
"laugh!"
Finally, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. If his son hadn't been there to support him, he probably would have fallen to the ground.
On the other hand, Lu Yuan was unaware of all this, but even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared.
I have no connection with the Zhang family anymore.
He wouldn't even blink if they died.
Upon returning to his residence, he first shared the good news with his wife and family.
After everyone brought out the monsters they had hunted that day and enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, Ling Mo visited again the next day and personally led Lu Yuan into the sect.
Inside the main hall, the sect leader of Changqing Sect and a group of high-ranking members of the sect had arrived.
Now everyone knows that Lu Yuan has taken an extraordinary master as his teacher and has the support of the sect leader, so of course no one would dare to object.
The coronation ceremony was completed very smoothly, and the news was announced to all disciples of the sect on the same day.
Lu Yuan's residence in the inner city has also been allocated.
It was already afternoon when the family moved into the inner city.
However, Lu Yuan did not accept the group's suggestion to have a proper celebration.
Instead, he went to the back mountain alone.
He was carrying a basket filled with many rare fruits.
As soon as they arrived outside the cave entrance, the old ape seemed to smell the fragrance. Its gaze swept over, and when it saw Lu Yuan, it grinned and said, "You still have some conscience, kid. You haven't forgotten me."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the fruit basket went straight into the cave.
He picked up a peach and started eating it.
While eating, he stared intently at Lu Yuan, mumbling, "Not bad, not bad, your cultivation has improved a lot. Your comprehension is beyond my expectations."
Lu Yuan immediately replied, "It's all thanks to Master's excellent teaching."
"Hey, stop with the formalities. Talent is talent. Let's not stand on ceremony. Since you're so talented, we can't let it go to waste. I've observed that this region has many mountains and rivers."
I don't know how you humans teach your disciples, but back then, I had to fight my way through an entire region just to barely pass my sect's trials.
The place I'm in now is a bit lacking, but it's passable enough.
I heard from Changqing that there's a Baidang Mountain nearby, right? Why don't you break through that mountain for me first?
Once you've accomplished that, you've passed the first test. But remember, when you meet other people outside, don't reveal your identity.
If people find out you're my disciple, it could cause quite a bit of trouble.
While the old ape was talking, it had eaten everything in the fruit basket.
Lu Yuan immediately replied, "Yes, Master."
"But there's no need to rush. Let's wait a month. Enter Baidang Mountain yourself after a month. If you can't fight your way out, don't come back to see me."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but gasp. His master really had high standards. Even the disciples of the Heavenly Dynasty's academy dared not easily set foot in the Hundred-Thousand-Mile Mountain.
Only experts at the higher levels, those who have reached the Profound Body or the Eternal Realm, would set foot in this realm. Yet his master actually ordered him to kill his way through.
However, he did not refuse, since the old ape had said so.
There must be a reason for that.
Therefore, Lu Yuan bowed and said, "Master, could I come more often this month? Isn't once every three days a bit too little?"
The old ape's eyes flashed: "Oh? I was worried you wouldn't want to spend more time with me, so I said I'd come every three days. Since you want to come, you can come every day."
Hearing him say that...
Lu Yuan immediately smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you, Master."
"Alright, alright, use this time to cultivate more, don't try this on me." The old ape waved his hand, but when he looked at Lu Yuan, a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.
This apprentice is talented and hardworking.
They are worth nurturing.
Without further ado, Lu Yuan bid farewell to his master and prepared to go down the mountain to buy some things.
In the coming month, he must improve his strength as quickly as possible.
Today, after officially becoming an elder, the sect distributed 10,000 spirit crystals to him.
There are still 10,000 merit points.
That's enough for him to exchange for a lot of things.
Next, they arrived at a place where only high-ranking members of the sect could exchange supplies.
The person in charge here is a steward of the sect.
His cultivation had reached the Perfection of the Profound Body realm, and his hair had turned white. However, upon seeing Lu Yuan arrive, he immediately stood up and respectfully said, "Greetings, Ninth Elder."
Lu Yuan nodded: "I've come to exchange for some cultivation supplies. How much do I need for Transcendent Pills?"
"Elder, if we use spirit stones, it will cost five hundred spirit crystals per bottle. If we use merit points, fifty points will suffice," the steward hurriedly replied.
Lu Yuan nodded: "Give me two bottles of Transcendent Pills and three Mysterious Embryo Fruits."
The Mysterious Embryo Fruit is a rare and precious material for those in the Transcendent Realm.
It's also used for breakthroughs.
"Elder, two bottles of pills cost 100 merit points, and three Mysterious Embryo Fruits cost 900 merit points, for a total of 1,000 merit points."
"Give."
Lu Yuan didn't waste any time and directly took out his identity token.
After deducting the money, the deacon returned the item with both hands.
Lu Yuan took the token and turned to leave.
Upon returning to his residence, he took out several Transcendent Pills, swallowed a few, and began his cultivation.
Now, I have ample resources and a mentor to guide me.
It would be unreasonable if one's cultivation level didn't increase quickly enough.
Lu Yuan was very busy for the next month.
He was rarely seen within the sect.
Chang Mo was brought by his master several times, wanting to apologize, but he never got to see Lu Yuan.
He could only go to Yao Yue's house instead, hoping that she would say a few kind words.
Tell Lu Yuan not to hold a grudge against Chang Mo.
After all, it's a terrifying thing for an outer disciple to be targeted by an elder.
Even though Chang Mo's master was a worshipper.
As for the Zhang family, it is said that Zhang Heng paid a huge price to enter the inner city once, just to find Lu Yuan.
However, in the end, he only stood outside the mansion for a day before returning home dejectedly.
Lu Yuan was not seen.
In fact, the other party no longer cares about these things.
What he wants is to break through his limits as soon as possible.
During the day, he would practice with the old ape halfway up the mountain.
In the evening, he would go home and take elixirs to cultivate.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Lu Yuan had just finished his cultivation in front of the cave.
The system data had already popped up in my mind.
The old ape, observing his physical condition, said, "It seems you'll break through soon. There's still plenty of time, so let's break through here."
Upon hearing his master's words, Lu Yuan immediately nodded.
He highly regarded the system's ability to conceal itself; even if the old ape possessed extraordinary magical powers, he probably wouldn't be able to detect it.
So without hesitation, he immediately opened the data panel, ready to check his earnings for the past month.
