Darknight Immortal Body?
Hua Yunfei was startled inwardly.
This was also a top-tier physique.
Legend had it that the first Holy Master of the Big Dipper Star's greatest assassin dynasty possessed a Darknight Immortal Body!
A physique born solely for the hunt!
However, Mu Qiuxue's physique was extremely incomplete, nowhere near that terrifying.
Even so incomplete, the Darknight talent that came with her physique had still reached the astonishing Dao Grade Apex!
Even the Holy Sons of those holy-land-level forces had talents no better than this.
Mu Qiuxue seemed not to have discovered that she possessed a Darknight Immortal Body.
She had noticed even less that her darkness talent was far more powerful than the sword dao talent she was currently cultivating!
"Martial Uncle, your little disciple has truly exceptional aptitude!"
Hua Yunfei praised her from the bottom of his heart.
"I originally thought her talent was excellent, but after seeing your disciple, Martial Nephew..."
Xiaxuan Zhenren had once been immensely proud of Mu Qiuxue's talent and raised her like a precious jewel.
But seeing Ye Bufan had dealt her a severe blow.
The gap was simply too vast!
In the future, Backer Sect's Ancestral Tomb would likely gain another powerful reserve.
"Martial Uncle, there is no need to feel this way."
Hua Yunfei chuckled. "A Dao Grade Low-Grade aptitude can be considered the talent of a heavenly prodigy throughout the entire Big Dipper Star!"
He was speaking the truth.
The Heavenly Dao had now entered the Era of Dharma Decline.
A Dao Grade aptitude might have been a little brother in the past, but now it was absolutely a rare and formidable aptitude.
Many Holy Sons and Holy Maidens from holy-land-level forces possessed no more than Dao Grade Apex aptitude.
"Martial Nephew, you could see Qiuxue's aptitude at a glance?"
Xiaxuan Zhenren was somewhat surprised. She had not revealed Mu Qiuxue's aptitude, yet Hua Yunfei had actually seen through it.
Hua Yunfei's expression did not change as he smiled. "I merely know a little eye-based divine art. I can see the general extent of another person's talents. Just a minor path."
"Oh?"
Xiaxuan Zhenren did not pursue the matter further and simply nodded.
"I wonder..."
Hua Yunfei asked, "What brings you and Qiuxue here today, Martial Uncle?"
Xiaxuan Zhenren also got to the point. "Daoyuan Peak has abundant spiritual energy, and Qiuxue possesses great talent. I cannot bear to see her golden years of cultivation delayed."
"So, this Martial Uncle wishes for her to cultivate here for a time. I wonder whether Martial Nephew could make an exception?"
Her words carried a plea.
Hua Yunfei was taken aback.
Stay on Daoyuan Peak to cultivate?
He hesitated. Daoyuan Peak held far too many heavenly treasures and secrets.
It was not that he feared any treasures being stolen. It was simply that, compared with Daoyuan Peak, Lower Mystery Peak was nothing more than a village.
Once Mu Qiuxue grew accustomed to the cultivation environment here, she would likely find it difficult to adapt after returning to Lower Mystery Peak.
Moreover, having a woman living on Daoyuan Peak was a little...
Hua Yunfei was in a difficult position, yet it was not easy for him to refuse.
The various peaks of Backer Sect were as close as one family. If he refused, it would seem rather cold and heartless.
Besides, Xiaxuan Zhenren had treated him well since childhood and had an excellent relationship with his father.
If he refused, his father's side would likely find it hard to save face as well.
As a junior, no matter what, he had to give her face in such a trivial matter.
"Then let Qiuxue remain on Daoyuan Peak and cultivate for a while."
Hua Yunfei ultimately agreed.
Still, inwardly, he hoped Mu Qiuxue would go home sooner rather than later.
With a woman around, he would feel quite uncomfortable.
Xiaxuan Zhenren rose to her feet and smiled. "Then I thank you."
Mu Qiuxue gave a slight bow. "Thank you, Daoyuan First Seat."
"There is no need for this. We are one family, after all. It is only a small matter."
Hua Yunfei waved dismissively.
After Xiaxuan Zhenren left, Hua Yunfei found Mu Qiuxue a place to stay near Ye Bufan.
Night fell.
Ye Bufan was still in meditation. Golden blood energy surged around him like a vast ocean, rolling upward toward the heavens.
At this moment, his cultivation had already broken through to the first level of the Core Formation Realm!
A core had condensed within his body, and spiritual energy had transformed into spiritual power!
"Worthy of the Heavenly Emperor Scripture!"
Hua Yunfei clicked his tongue in amazement. A cultivation art created by an emperor-level sacred body was indeed powerful.
He sat not far away, sipping tea as he watched with great satisfaction.
Having an outstanding disciple truly made a master feel proud and honored.
This feeling was quite good.
He even wanted to take in another disciple to show off a little... cough, cough... to nurture another one.
Taiyi Swordplay, Ancient Emperor Taiyi
The bright moon hung high in the sky.
Sensing Hua Yunfei's thoughts, the system immediately stirred.
Host, since...
"Stop right there!"
Hua Yunfei chuckled. "Although this feeling is great, the rewards you give for taking disciples are really not much to speak of."
"The Heavenly Emperor Scripture is indeed insanely powerful, but I cannot use it!"
"I did not check the grade of Taiyi Swordplay, but it is probably only so-so. I already cultivate enough cultivation arts."
Only so-so?
Taiyi Swordplay was an imperial sword art created by a Sword Dao Emperor! It existed above Saint Grade cultivation arts!
"An imperial sword art?"
"Gasp..."
"It is that insanely powerful?"
Hua Yunfei hurriedly took out Taiyi Swordplay and examined it carefully. He was immediately astounded.
Ancient Emperor Taiyi, a heavenly prodigy who had attained emperorship through the sword dao!
With one man and one sword, he had been invincible beneath the heavens!
Taiyi Swordplay was created by Ancient Emperor Taiyi in his later years, the culmination of every sword art he had used from his youth until old age!
I thought you would notice, but it turns out you are just a fool!
Had you signed in for a hundred years and gotten so many good things that your eyes had gone crooked?
