Second Disciple! Complete the Main Quest: Ascend to Immortality on the Spot!
"System lottery!"
Lin Feng inexplicably felt that Tianyi.
However, there is generally a mystical element to it.
You might have bad luck in everyday life, but maybe you'll have good luck in a lottery.
So he silently wished for a lottery draw.
[Beep! Number of draws -1]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the position of a prodigy disciple*1]
[Beep! Number of draws -1]
Thank you for your patronage.
Lin Feng: "..."
Even he hadn't expected that he would actually be able to find the time to thank them for their patronage during his only two opportunities.
Looks like I'm really having a bad day.
Gu Yuan, who was standing to the side, watched Lin Feng's reaction and chuckled softly.
This system's approach is truly ingenious; it rewards you with an extra chance one minute, and then manipulates it into a "thank you for your patronage" message the next.
They really weren't letting Lin Feng gain any advantage.
However, a problem arises.
How could a system that doesn't want Lin Feng to gain any advantage so easily allow Lin Feng's cultivation to directly advance to the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage?
Isn't that strange?
At least if it were Gu Yuan, he wouldn't do such a risk-free business.
In other words, the ultimate benefit of training disciples is far greater than the instillation of cultivation levels.
What is his purpose?
Cultivating chives?
Or is it really about training disciples?
Looking at the rewards for being designated a disciple, Gu Yuan's seemingly nonexistent gaze became somewhat profound.
The other party's intentions still need to be observed.
However, I really need to seriously consider how to spread this Cultivation Method.
Currently, this sect only has Lin Feng and Song Li. If they don't leave the sect, he won't be able to come into contact with other people.
Didn't this kid just get a spot in the lottery?
To directly disrupt his thoughts, leave immediately.
"We can't waste this prize; we're just idling around anyway, let's go earn a reward."
Looking at the distant mountains, Lin Feng seemed lost in thought and muttered to himself.
That is, at this very moment.
Lin Feng suddenly looked toward the sect entrance, a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Someone has broken into the sect's protective formation?
That's talent!
In just a moment, Lin Feng's expression changed, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
It's truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly."
A disciple with monstrous talent actually delivered himself to our doorstep!
Immediately, Lin Feng stepped into the air and headed towards the sect's entrance.
Is that a coincidence?
What a coincidence.
Gu Yuan didn't even need to think; he already knew who had sent this so-called prodigy disciple to his doorstep.
However, he had seen this plot in a novel.
Hunted by enemies, with nowhere to run.
Eight out of ten novels of this type have this kind of plot.
The Sect Protection Array.
Lin Feng glanced at the young man from the Formation Sect, pondering how to turn him into his disciple.
This person has cultivation, although it's very low, only at the late stage of Qi Refining.
However, if there is a sect involved, things become more complicated.
Those who have cultivated and those who haven't are completely different things.
[Name: Ye Ming]
[Cultivation Level: Late Qi Refining]
[Talent: Prodigy]
[Identity: Chosen One]
So this kid's name is Ye Ming.
Gu Yuan glanced at Ye Ming within the formation, and without hesitation, spent energy points to send the <Primordial Qi Refining Formula> into Ye Ming's mind.
At this moment, Ye Ming, who was inside the formation, was quite calm and did not seem to be afraid of it.
Even while going around in circles inside, it didn't utter a single complaint, but continued moving forward.
They didn't try to break the formation, didn't look for a way out, and didn't even call for help.
What is Ye Ming trying to do?
"Primordial Qi Refining Formula?"
Ye Ming paused slightly, his brows furrowed.
"As expected, there really is some unknown Cultivation Method trying to control me."
He muttered something under his breath, but those words revealed a great deal.
Anticipating in advance?
Wrong!
There's a problem!
It consumes energy to read minds.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for discovering a problem! You have been awarded one chance to win a prize!]
A cold, mechanical voice rang out, echoing Ye Ming's earlier ordeal.
Is it the system again?
Ye Ming is also a system owner!
Gu Yuan listened to the system's voice, recalling Ye Ming's words from earlier.
At this moment, he understood many things.
Goodness!
These two systems share information!
In other words, they have the same origin.
The entity behind the scenes created two systems.
Given the two system owners, and following this plot development, Lin Feng will likely take Ye Ming as his disciple.
We're all on the same side, why do this?
Are you just bored and have nothing better to do?
Strangeness.
Lin Feng waved his hand, dispelling the formation in front of him.
Suddenly, the space in front of them revealed its original appearance.
"Who are you, and why have you trespassed into my sect's formation?"
Lin Feng, exuding the aura of a Golden Core cultivator at the peak of perfection, looked at Ye Ming opposite him with a serious expression, giving the other party a taste of his power.
"A sect? Is this a hidden sect? Senior, please help me! I want to become stronger! I want revenge!"
After Lin Feng finished speaking, Ye Ming's expression changed instantly, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He clenched his fists, his whole body trembling.
He immediately knelt down and bowed to Lin Feng.
This sudden move caught Lin Feng off guard, and the words he had prepared were now stuck in his throat.
The disciples he recruited came to him on their own initiative and even asked to become his disciples.
Could it be that I am also a chosen one?
"You want to become my apprentice?"
Even so, Lin Feng still pretended to be indifferent, and his authoritative voice rang out.
"Please, senior, accept me as your disciple!"
"Very well, since you've come here today, it means we have a master-disciple relationship."
He feigned slight hesitation, but Lin Feng he was overjoyed.
Why not take advantage of a free lunch?
"From this day forward, you will be my second disciple."
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for recruiting a disciple with monstrous talent!]
[Task Rewards: One scripture, one longsword/ Spirit Artifact, one lottery draw chance, cultivation level increased to Nascent Soul Early Stage.]
Just after Lin Feng agreed to take on a disciple, the system's voice sounded as usual, distributing rewards to Lin Feng.
Immediately afterwards.
Ye Ming's system also sounded.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have officially joined the Nameless Sect!]
[Please continue your efforts, host, complete the main quest, and ascend to immortality.]
Gu Yuan, standing to the side, found the two systems' voices somewhat noisy.
So the two of them were conning each other; you could only say they were very dedicated.
However, he was quite curious about Ye Ming's main quest. What kind of quest required him to join the Nameless Sect and even become an immortal on the spot?
The entire Nameless Sect has absolutely nothing unusual about it.
The system is peculiar, isn't it? It originally belonged to them; the sect buildings, various formations—they all belong to the system.
The mountain ranges where the sect is located are ubiquitous.
I don't understand what this person behind the scenes is trying to do.
"Your talent is extraordinary; you are destined for great achievements in cultivation."
"Originally, I wanted to bestow upon you Cultivation Method, but seeing that you already possess cultivation skills and that it suits you, I will give you this scripture instead. Please study it carefully."
"There are many cave abode within the sect; choose any one to live in."
"If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask Senior Brother Song Li."
The familiar instructions, the familiar way of shirking responsibility— Lin Feng said it without any surprise.
Then it drifted away.
Ye Ming was left standing there alone.
What he didn't see was that Ye Ming's expression changed after hearing those words.
Senior Brother?
Ye Ming's lips seemed to be pointing at those three words, and then a strange smile appeared on his face.
