Snatching a Disciple

Hua Qiang narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze shifting as if a thousand thoughts were churning in his mind.

He had never been interested in alchemy, as the tedious procedures and long waits went against his original intention to pursue the Great Dao.

Moreover, he possesses the Creation Divine Cauldron forging materials; if he were to refine a weapon, it would be a piece of cake.

However, the word "" was like a huge stone thrown into a deep pool, causing ripples in his heart and arousing his great interest.

Currently, he has only upgraded his weapons to the Immortal Grade, and he doesn't have a single Divine Grade weapon.

Fourth Elder Xu Shouchang keenly noticed the change in Hua Qiang's eyes and was overjoyed, knowing that he had finally found the key to unlock Hua Qiang's heart.

He hurriedly stepped forward, his face beaming with a warm smile and his eyes filled with eagerness.

"Hua Qiang, if you become my disciple, I will definitely not let you suffer any losses!"

If anyone dares to bully you in the future, your master will be the first to object!

I'll beat him so badly he'll run away with his tail between his legs, so badly he won't even recognize his own mother!

As he spoke, he waved his arms, as if he could already see himself standing up for his disciple and looking majestic.

"Hehe, fourth brother, you're being too frivolous with your words."

A slightly mocking voice suddenly came from outside the door. "You're already this old, and you're still spouting nonsense here. Don't you care about your image?"

Before the words were even finished, the elders in the room were suddenly jolted and immediately turned to look at the door.

Zong Yun Tianxing walked in with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of grandeur.

He wore a magnificent long robe, the hem of which fluttered gently in the wind, exuding an aura of authority that commanded respect without anger.

Behind him, several elders, including the sixth, seventh, and tenth, followed closely, each with an expression of either anticipation or nervousness on their face.

Upon seeing this, Fourth Elder Xu Shouchang inwardly cried out in alarm, and the smile on his face instantly froze.

The other two, who were also vying for the position of Elder Hua Qiang, now had solemn expressions and were secretly lamenting their predicament.

"Damn it, there are more and more competitors. These old guys are definitely here to take down Hua Qiang!"

Elder Hua broke the deadlock by stepping forward and giving Hua Qiang a kind and friendly smile.

He said in a gentle tone, "Young friend Hua Qiang, I am in charge of the sect's library, which contains countless precious secret manuals of magic techniques."

As long as you become my disciple, you can freely peruse these secret manuals.

Whether it's profound Sword Dao Heart Method or mysterious formations, everything is available, guaranteed to help you advance rapidly on your cultivation path.

The Second Elder hurriedly said, "Hua Qiang, I told you before that I am in charge of the sect's Pill Room, and all kinds of rare spiritual herbs and peerless Pills are under my control."

Follow me, and you will not only learn top-notch alchemy techniques, but also be able to take various Pills at any time. Improving your cultivation will be a piece of cake.

Others may spend countless hours cultivating to reach the highest level, but you might only need a few months to become my disciple. You will absolutely not regret it."

The Seventh Elder patted the magical artifact at his waist and said loudly, "I am skilled in the crafting and modification of magical artifacts."

Look at this Natal Artifact I carry at my waist; it has been improved countless times and is incredibly powerful.

"As long as you become my disciple, I will impart to you all the secret techniques for refining this unique magical artifact. From then on, every magical artifact you possess will be a rare and priceless treasure!"

The Tenth Elder smiled and stroked his beard, saying, "I often travel around and have made the acquaintance of countless heroes of the martial world and powerful cultivators."

By following me, you can make friends with heroes from all walks of life and expand your network.

No matter what difficulties I encounter in the future, as long as I give the call, countless people will come to my aid.

Just as the elders were arguing heatedly, Sect Master Yun Tianxing coughed lightly, and everyone immediately quieted down.

His gaze was sharp as he stared at Hua Qiang and slowly said, "Gentlemen, let's stop arguing."

Hua Qiang, I see you have extraordinary talent; you are a rare genius.

If you are willing, I am willing to take you as my last disciple and pass on all the knowledge I have learned in my life without reservation.

Under my tutelage, you will receive the finest cultivation resources, and all the sect's resources will be geared towards you.

"In the future, you will surely become a renowned and powerful figure."

Upon hearing this, the other elders present immediately deflated.

No matter how hard they try to seize it, how can they possibly outcompete the Sect Master?

They all wore helpless expressions; though unwilling, they had no choice but to give up.

Just when everyone thought Hua Qiang would agree and join the Sect Master's ranks, a cold and aloof aura suddenly spread out.

Everyone felt a chill and involuntarily shivered.

Looking up, I saw a woman in a snow-white dress walking slowly towards me.

She looked to be only in her early twenties, with skin as white as snow, and features as beautiful as a painting, as beautiful as a fairy who is untouched by worldly affairs.

However, the icy aura emanating from her was awe-inspiring, as if she were a high and mighty Bing Xue queen, unapproachable and only to be admired from afar.

"Hmph, you guys certainly have a good time."

"Greetings, Supreme Elder!"

The elders hurriedly bowed to the newcomers, and even the Sect Master, Yun Tianxing, was extremely respectful.

She glanced coldly at everyone, her voice like a icy bead falling to the ground, crisp yet chilling.

"Hua Qiang, take me as your master. Although I do not concern myself with sectarian matters, I possess ancient inheritances. Those long-lost secret techniques and incomparably powerful supernatural abilities will all be yours."

"Follow me, and you will have the opportunity to reach the pinnacle of spiritual practice and become a transcendent being."

"It's not impossible to even take that step."

Although she didn't say much, every word struck like a hammer blow to everyone's hearts.

As Hua Qiang gazed at the Supreme Elder, whose features resembled those sculpted from Bing Xue, a strange sense of familiarity welled up within him.

That aloof and arrogant attitude is becoming more and more pronounced in my younger sister.

Perhaps it's due to their natural talent, but the two are quite evenly matched in this regard.

If my younger sister could become her disciple, it would definitely be of great help to her cultivation.

Finally, Hua Qiang slowly stepped forward and bowed deeply to the Supreme Elder: "Disciple Hua Qiang wishes to become a disciple of Master and asks for your guidance."

At that moment, the entire room fell silent.

Sect Master Yun Tianxing and the other elders all showed regret, but they quickly recovered and stepped forward to offer their congratulations.

The Supreme Elder's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He nodded gently and turned to leave.

A voice drifted through the night sky. "Sui Tianlai Langhuan Blessed Land behind the mountain!"

A fierce competition for disciples has come to an end, and Hua Qiang's cultivation journey has officially begun a new chapter in this dramatic scene.
