Chapter 110: Chapter 110 Selecting Disciples!

“First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Sister Murong.”

Lu Changsheng greeted each of the Mount Shu Elders as they arrived, many of whom were friends who had been through life and death together.

This disciple selection ceremony was so important that even Murong Shi, who was at the ninth layer of the Dao Palace Realm, had come out.

First Senior Brother Li Changye had already become a Supreme Elder at the first layer of the Void Refinement Realm.

“Lu Junior Brother’s two disciples have made incredible progress in their cultivation, one at the ninth layer of the Nascent Soul Realm and the other at the seventh layer.”

Li Changye couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.

At the last disciple selection ceremony, Lu Changsheng had been alone, but now he had two disciples in the Nascent Soul Realm.

After receiving the inheritance of the Divine Tree Immortal Emperor in the Immortal Ruins, Lin Qingzhi’s Root Bone and Comprehension underwent earth-shaking changes, transforming from a mortal to a genius. His cultivation soared, and he truly became qualified to represent Qingyun Peak as the chief disciple.

Chen Yao, a disciple from Bimoon Peak, had also become one of the Mount Shu Elders.

“The Sect Leader and the Supreme Elders have arrived!”

An old man wearing a Taiji Yin Yang Daoist Robe, with white hair and a beard and an aura of Immortality, and an old woman in plain clothes, leaning on a wooden staff, entered. The Mount Shu Elders present all performed the disciple’s salute.

One was the Sect Leader of Mount Shu, the Taiyuan Real Person, and the other was his elder sister. Both were figures who had lived for at least three thousand years, with unfathomably deep cultivation.

“You are doing well,” the old woman approached Lu Changsheng and sized him up before turning to Lin Qingzhi, “You’re not bad either. After I pass on in a hundred years, my last disciple will be left in your care.”

Lin Qingzhi was familiar with Chen Yao’s master: “You have the fortune of the Eastern Sea, the longevity of Mount South, and you’re still in robust health.”

The old woman shook her head: “Hahaha, my constitution isn’t as good as yours.”

Lu Changsheng could not discern the true depth of the old woman’s cultivation, but he surmised that she must be a powerful expert who had reached Great Accomplishment in the Void Refinement Realm.

As for Taiyuan Real Person, Lu Changsheng was very familiar with him.

In the past two years, Lu Changsheng had been following Taiyuan Real Person to learn the eighth layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique. Although he couldn’t fully comprehend it, he had understood a small part of it.

“If all the Elders are present, then we can begin the disciple selection ceremony.”

“Yes.”

“By the Sect Leader’s command, the disciple selection ceremony begins!”

Every candidate on the Mount Shu Great Hall Square couldn’t help but become solemn.

They saw Taiyuan Real Person wave his Daoist Robe, and a square mirror flew from his large sleeve, growing larger in the wind and hovering in the sky above the great hall square. A strand of Immortal Qi spread out, and the imposing pressure of an Immortal Artifact made the square and the many great halls tremble.

Lu Changsheng was finally again privileged to witness one of Mount Shu’s lower-grade Immortal Artifacts—the Gallbladder Mirror.

The Gallbladder Mirror, like the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron, was not a treasure used primarily for attack.

The effect of the Gallbladder Mirror was to test a disciple’s physique, Root Bone, Comprehension, and Qi Destiny.

Frankly, the Gallbladder Mirror’s effect was not as good as the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator.

The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator could even see one’s life destiny and future.

Based on Lu Changsheng’s conjecture, Mount Shu likely possessed more than just the Gallbladder Mirror among its Immortal Artifacts; otherwise, Mount Shu wouldn’t have been able to stand tall for hundreds of thousands of years without falling.

The Gallbladder Mirror was merely used to screen disciples.

As for the other Immortal Artifacts of Mount Shu, only a few people knew about them.

Mount Shu’s Outer Sect disciples maintained order, dividing the candidates into groups of ten.

“First group of candidates, step forward thirty paces!”

The ten candidates were incredibly nervous as they stepped forward to test their qualifications.

Only those with extraordinary qualifications had any hope of becoming disciples of Mount Shu.

“Xiao Yan, Root Bone upper grade, Comprehension upper-upper grade, Qi Destiny upper grade, cultivation at the seventh layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm, qualified.”

The first candidate’s qualifications were displayed, and the girl was overjoyed.

“This girl has good qualifications; ourXiaozhu Peak will take her,” said the graceful Fairy Qingru from Xiaozhu Peak, choosing the girl as a disciple.

She knew that if there were disciples with special physiques, she could not compete with Lu Changsheng, who had the reputation of “Mount Shu’s Number One Teacher,” nor with the First Senior Brother in the Void Refinement Realm. Even the Supreme Elders, who had no hope of surviving their Tribulation, might be looking for suitable disciples to leave their legacy before their time comes.

This girl’s qualifications are quite impressive indeed.

“Are you willing to take me as your master?”

Fairy Qingru spoke, revealing her cultivation at the Dao Palace Realm.

“Disciple is willing!”

The girl named Xiao Yan immediately agreed.

This was an elder from Mount Shu at the Dao Palace Realm!

“Unexpectedly, as soon as the apprenticeship ceremony began, someone became an Inner Sect Disciple and set foot on the path of immortality, truly enviable.”

“This girl’s future is immeasurable.”

Other candidates and the common folk watching all cast envious glances.

“Li Xiaoshuai, Root Bone of medium grade, Comprehension of low grade, Qi Destiny of low grade, cultivation at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, not qualified.”

“Sun Dazhuang, Root Bone of low grade, Comprehension of medium grade, Qi Destiny of low grade, cultivation at the third level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, not qualified.”

“Hao Jing, Root Bone of high grade, Comprehension of medium grade, Qi Destiny of medium grade, cultivation at the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, qualified.”

Groups of candidates came forward to test their qualifications, and quickly a thousand people had been tested. In the end, only about ten were taken as Inner Sect Disciples by the elders of Mount Shu, with more than a hundred others accepted as External Disciples.

“The Mount Shu elders’ requirements for Inner Sect Disciples are really strict.”

“It’s a pity my qualifications are not good; I can’t blame anyone else.”

Many of the eliminated candidates sighed one after another.

“Han Xuan, Root Bone of high grade, Comprehension of the highest grade, Qi Destiny of high grade, cultivation at the first level of the Qi Transformation Realm, possesses a special constitution—the Cold Ice Physique!”

The Gallbladder Mirror shook violently, and the surface showed three golden ancient characters: “Cold Ice Physique.”

The Mount Shu elders were finally moved.

At last, a candidate disciple with a special constitution had appeared.

All eyes unanimously turned to Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng, an elder of the ninth layer of the Dao Palace Realm, was only second in status to the Sect Leader and Supreme Elders. Furthermore, Lu Changsheng was Mount Shu’s number one master. If he decided to take Han Xuan as a disciple, then nobody would dare compete with him.

In just ten years, Lu Changsheng had managed to teach two disciples who reached the Nascent Soul Realm, and even Lu Changsheng’s youngest disciple was close to the Nascent Soul Realm.

Who could match such a speed of teaching disciples?

“Why are all of you looking at me?”

Lu Changsheng felt troubled.

Although Han Xuan had a special constitution, the “Cold Ice Physique,” the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator still showed no reaction.

Even among special constitutions, there were differences.

The Innate Taoist Body and Lingwa Holy Body were top-quality special constitutions.

The Eternal Wilderness Body, Everlasting Verdant Body, Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Physique, and Spirit Sword Physique were high-quality special constitutions.

And the Cold Ice Physique was considered a lower-quality special constitution.

Zhao Wuyan hesitated and asked, “This person has a special constitution; are you not planning to take him as a disciple, Lu? With your ability to teach disciples, it won’t take ten years for Mount Shu to gain another Nascent Soul Realm elder.”

Lu Changsheng rolled his eyes. Did they really think his Qingyun Peak would just accept anyone? “This person has no fate with our Qingyun Peak.”

“Since Lu does not want him, then I, Zhao Wuyan, will not be polite.”

Zhao Wuyan was overjoyed. With Lu not competing, and as a Dao Palace Realm sixth-layer elder, the other Mount Shu elders had to give him some face.

“Zhao Wuyan, I, Tian Song, will not let you have your way,” said another Dao Palace Realm elder as he entered the competition with Zhao Wuyan.

Even if it was just a lower-quality special constitution, it was still considered a talent.
