An Astonishing Idea!

Star River Sect.

Inside the Outer Disciple Reception Hall.

Elder Huang gripped Fang Hong's shoulders tightly, his expression excited.

"Kid, do you want to become an Inner Disciple directly?!"

Elder Huang stared at Fang Hong with gleaming eyes as he asked.

The moment Fang Hong had entered, Elder Huang had already sensed the terrifying vitality and blood energy within him.

Although Fang Hong had spent the previous two days cultivating a technique he had obtained from the Liu Family for concealing one's aura, bringing it to perfection.

He could now completely conceal his current aura.

That was why, back at the archway, Pang Zhenghao and the others had been unable to sense Fang Hong's precise cultivation level or the strength of his vitality and blood energy.

Only Pang Zhenghao, with his naturally keen senses, had still been able to vaguely feel a deep, dangerous presence.

But Elder Huang was not someone Outer Disciples like Pang Zhenghao could compare to.

He was an Earth Realm expert.

Fang Hong's little tricks for concealing his aura and hiding his strength were hardly any different from standing naked in Elder Huang's eyes.

Thus, Elder Huang had spotted the incomparably vast vitality and blood energy within Fang Hong at a glance.

Especially when he had just used his internal energy to probe Fang Hong's bone age and cultivation realm.

Although that strand of internal energy had been directly ground away by Fang Hong's vitality and blood energy.

In that brief instant, Elder Huang had still confirmed many things.

Most shocking of all was Fang Hong's body, which seemed to have been tempered to its absolute limit.

At this level, speaking purely of the tempering of every muscle throughout the body.

Even he, who had advanced to the Earth Realm many years ago, probably could not compare to this Fang Hong!

So there was no need for Fang Hong to demonstrate his strength at all; Elder Huang could already imagine it.

Just how terrifying Fang Hong's power would be when he struck.

And that was relying solely on the immense strength of his physical body!

A body at this level had absolutely reached the minimum requirement for Construct Star Chain.

Senior Brother's idea back then had been right.

Senior Brother was right!

Elder Huang's heart was filled with excitement.

"What?!"

"Become an Inner Disciple directly!"

Before Fang Hong could react, Pang Zhenghao, standing nearby, cried out in shock upon hearing Elder Huang's words.

The next moment, the look in Pang Zhenghao's eyes as he gazed at Fang Hong instantly became fervent.

Hahaha, I knew my instincts weren't wrong!

To become an Inner Disciple directly upon entering the sect—the potential of this Fang Hong was obvious.

I had to cling tightly to this thigh.

Meanwhile, Fang Hong's expression was equally surprised.

"Become an Inner Disciple directly?"

Before setting out today, he had already prepared himself to first become an Outer Disciple and spend some time as a beast of burden, a working stiff.

And now he was being told he could become an Inner Disciple directly?

Compared to Outer Disciples, Inner Disciples still had to complete certain missions.

In fact, many of those missions might even carry a degree of danger.

But without question, Inner Disciples were already Star River Sect's reserve officials, its pool of future talent.

To a certain extent, they had already escaped the pitiful rank of beasts of burden.

In some respects, their authority was no weaker than that of certain Outer Sect Elders.

His gaze flickering slightly, Fang Hong asked in confusion,

"May I ask Elder Huang to tell me the reason?"

"Although I am not particularly old and my strength is passable, Elder Huang may not know that my innate talent and bone structure are actually not very good."

Hearing this, Elder Huang calmed the excitement in his heart. "I won't explain the specific reason for now."

"Right now, I only want to know whether you wish to seize this opportunity."

"If you are unwilling, I can let you enter the sect directly as an Outer Disciple."

Elder Huang looked at Fang Hong as he spoke.

At those words, Fang Hong's eyes flickered as thoughts churned endlessly in his mind.

After pondering for a moment, Fang Hong's gaze hardened. Meeting Elder Huang's somewhat expectant eyes, he nodded.

"Though I still have some doubts, as the saying goes, an opportunity lost never comes again."

"If what Elder Huang says is true, then I am willing to give it a try."

Elder Huang's face immediately lit up with delight.

"Hahaha, good! Then come with me to Myriad Star Peak at once!"

"I'll explain it to you along the way."

Elder Huang laughed excitedly, then directly grabbed Fang Hong and lifted him up.

With a flashing leap, their figures shot out of the hall and raced straight toward Myriad Star Peak, vanishing from sight within a few breaths.

The entire hall was instantly left with only Pang Zhenghao.

"They just ran off?"

Pang Zhenghao looked around in a daze.

Then, once he came back to his senses, he frowned slightly.

If Fang Hong truly became an Inner Disciple directly, there probably wouldn't be many chances for us to interact afterward.

No, I absolutely had to hold onto this thigh.

While he still had a good impression of me, I had to seize this chance and find a way to connect with him.

With that thought, Pang Zhenghao immediately hurried out of the hall as well.

Ever since arriving in this world and dealing with Zhou Chengyuan and the others before.

Fang Hong had already noticed something.

Although this world was very similar to the fantasy novels he had read in his previous life.

It was a real world.

Zhou Chengyuan and the others, as well as Pang Zhenghao and Elder Huang, whom he had met now, were all living, breathing people.

And perhaps because of cultivation, all of them were extremely intelligent.

Every one of them was shrewd and calculating; none would make mindless decisions.

Even the Liu Family brothers Fang Hong had killed before had possessed plenty of schemes and methods.

For instance, when Liu Chengfeng had first encountered him, merely because he was uncertain of Fang Hong's strength and sensed danger.

He had decisively chosen to back down at once.

Only after investigating the situation and joining forces with that Crimson Spirit Sect disciple who had completed Marrow Refinement had he attempted to ambush and kill Fang Hong.

Had it been anyone else, they would probably have long since died at the hands of the Liu brothers.

After realizing this, Fang Hong warned himself inwardly.

I must never become arrogant enough to look down on others simply because I have a Golden Finger.

Do not underestimate or despise others, and do not casually make enemies.

But if enmity is forged, then I must not leave anything to chance or show mercy.

When eliminating evil, one must uproot it completely; when cutting grass, one must pull out the roots!

At this moment, Elder Huang was carrying Fang Hong and speeding toward Myriad Star Peak.

The disciples they encountered along the way all watched in surprise as the two figures flashed away and vanished within a few breaths.

As Elder Huang raced onward, he continuously explained the opportunity he had mentioned to Fang Hong.

Although Elder Huang's speed was so great that the wind howled past Fang Hong's ears.

Elder Huang's words, gathered by internal energy, entered Fang Hong's ears with incomparable clarity.

As Elder Huang explained, astonishment and excitement appeared on Fang Hong's face.

"Construct Star Chain, Channel Stellar Power, condense the Perfect Stellar Physique, achieve Postnatal to Innate Transformation."

"Cross the Earth Realm in a single step and enter the Heaven Realm directly."

"It truly is an astonishing idea..."
