This kid actually went out to restock?

Are geniuses really that easy to find?

Hua Yunfei smiled and said, "Do you believe me now? You know I never brag."

Yun Tian Zhenren beamed, saying, "Excellent, excellent! Our Backer Sect's future is bright."

"Master and Uncle Xuan Cheng will be very happy when they hear about this. It's even possible they might make an exception and take the three of them as disciples."

Yun Tian Zhenren picked up his teacup again and looked at Hua Yunfei, saying:

"You've really put in the effort this time. With those four, plus your two disciples, the Backer Sect will definitely become even stronger in the future."

Hua Yunfei nodded, "I know, and that's still just on the surface."

"Hahaha!"

"You understand me best, kid!"

"A tall tree catches the wind. It's enough for our Backer Sect to have some influence in the Eastern Region; there's no need to be overly competitive."

Yun Tian Zhenren laughed heartily, clearly very pleased.

Acquiring four geniuses of true disciple caliber in one go – how could he not be happy?

Moreover...

Yun Tian Zhenren took a sip of tea, his gaze following the rim of the cup as he glanced at Lin Yang, a faint smile on his lips. "What's your name?"

Lin Yang quickly replied, "This disciple's name is Lin Yang, Lin from forest, Yang from the rising sun."

"Good, a fine name."

Yun Tian Zhenren said, "Your talent is already sufficient to serve as the Holy Son of the Backer Sect. However, the Eastern Region is about to undergo great changes, so my requirements have become stricter."

"To become the Holy Son of the Backer Sect, one's talent must reach Low-Grade Saint Talent."

"You're still a bit short."

Hearing this, Lin Yang's spirits sank. Although he was disappointed, there was nothing he could do about something determined by his innate disposition.

"However."

Yun Tian Zhenren's tone shifted, "If you perform well in the future, I have a way to help you perfect your origin. You'll be at least stronger than you are now, and your talent might even break through to Saint-Grade then!"

Lin Yang immediately bowed, excitedly saying, "This disciple will definitely do his utmost to serve the sect!"

Yun Tian Zhenren nodded, "I'm telling you all this to give you some motivation. Come to the Backer Sect, and you absolutely won't be disappointed."

Hua Yunfei was surprised by Yun Tian Zhenren's words. "It seems that even after becoming a Peak Master, my understanding of the Backer Sect is still too limited."

He hadn't even known that the Backer Sect had a way to perfect one's innate constitution!

This was something he himself couldn't do.

Or rather, it was extremely difficult.

A flawed origin was innate, the Dao principles incomplete, preventing the unlocking of the body's hidden potential. Naturally, the true power of the constitution couldn't be unleashed.

Every special constitution had its own exclusive hidden potential. Once unlocked, it would grant powerful Dao techniques specific to that constitution.

Therefore, if Lin Yang could perfect his origin, his future achievements would be immense.

He might even be able to be interred in the deepest part of the ancestral mausoleum!

Yun Tian Zhenren smiled mysteriously, "If you're willing to become the Sect Master, you'll learn all the secrets of the Backer Sect."

Hua Yunfei possessed outstanding talent, breaking through to the Celestial Realm at just a hundred years old, and he was also very intelligent.

If he were to take on the role of Backer Sect Master, Yun Tian Zhenren would be very at ease.

This matter, Yun Tian Zhenren had even discussed with Hua Yunfei's father, Hua Cangqiong, the former Peak Master of Daoyuan Peak.

At that time, Hua Yunfei was only twenty years old, and Yun Tian Zhenren intended to cultivate him as the future Sect Master.

But Hua Cangqiong had refused without hesitation.

His reason was: "Damn it, can't you find someone else to exploit? What's so interesting about constantly targeting my Hua clan?"

"Aren't there enough Hua family ancestors lying in the ancestral mausoleum, or what?"

"Stop talking, push it any further, and I'll fight you!"

"You know you can't beat me!"

Hua Yunfei shook his head and chuckled, "I won't do it. It doesn't matter if I know the sect's secrets or not. I have a good grasp of things, and that's enough to feel secure."

Chapter Thirty-Six: Uncle-Ancestor Tianji Has Been Lingering Here for Two Months

After chatting with Yun Tian Zhenren for a while, Hua Yunfei took his leave and returned to Daoyuan Peak with Huang Xuan.

Lin Yang and the other three were left for Yun Tian Zhenren to arrange.

With their talent, the four of them would undoubtedly hold significant positions within the Backer Sect.

Being a true disciple was the least of it.

Lin Yang might even go a step further.

Hua Yunfei and Huang Xuan stepped onto their great swords and shot into the sky, piercing the clouds as they flew toward Daoyuan Peak.

As they neared Daoyuan Peak, Hua Yunfei looked up, his brow furrowing, and his expression turned peculiar.

"Hah!"

"My Daoyuan Peak has truly branched out!"

"With these inner disciples, my heart is greatly comforted!"

Although Daoyuan Peak never officially recruited disciples, the number of disciples cultivating on it was no less than that of the other six peaks!

Vaguely, it seemed that the stronger the disciple, the more they liked to come to Daoyuan Peak to benefit from the dense spiritual energy there.

Even though, under the cultivation of those heavenly treasures planted by Hua Yunfei, especially the Ginseng Fruit Tree, the spiritual energy for hundreds of thousands of miles around the Backer Sect had long been incomparable to the past.

Within the Backer Sect, it was even several times denser than before.

But Daoyuan Peak was the source, and the spiritual energy was so dense it seemed to condense into spiritual water.

Cultivating here for one day was equivalent to cultivating for five days elsewhere!

Or even longer!

Hua Yunfei never drove anyone away from such a blessed spiritual land, so more and more disciples from the other six peaks came to set up camp and build their cultivation caves.

There were even exclusive cultivation caves for the true disciples of several Peak Masters and even the Sect Master.

Every night, when all was quiet, they would sneak over to cultivate.

The reason they came at night was simple: they wanted to compete with their fellow disciples.

Especially other true disciples.

If they got into an argument while bragging one day, they would have the confidence to back it up, right?

"Youngster Luoqing, she's here so early today?"

Hua Yunfei looked down from above and saw Ouyang Luoqing tiptoeing, walking in a corner, gradually approaching her cultivation cave on Daoyuan Peak.

She was very cautious, afraid of being seen by other true disciples.

This second disciple of Uncle-Master Tianji, who appeared cute on the surface, was petite and adorable, with delicate features, dressed in a daoist robe, like a porcelain doll.

But anyone who was fooled by her appearance would suffer greatly.

She was undoubtedly the "king of competition" on Celestial Secrets Peak!

Her hidden cultivation level should have surpassed that of her senior brother, Li Duxiu.

Ouyang Luoqing bypassed the crowd and quietly entered a hidden cave dwelling before closing the stone door.

Shaking his head with a smile, Hua Yunfei no longer paid attention to this area and led Huang Xuan to the summit of Daoyuan Peak.

"Huh? This is Uncle-Master Tianji's aura. Is he here?"

After Hua Yunfei passed through the formations and landed on Daoyuan Peak, the first thing he sensed was a strange aura that did not belong to Daoyuan Peak.

Upon careful identification, it was indeed the aura of Tianji Zhenren.

Why would this old fellow be here?

Hua Yunfei looked towards a newly built cave dwelling in the distance.

He's already moved in?!

Hua Yunfei entered Daoyuan Peak silently, without alerting anyone.

At this moment, Ye Bufan was cultivating. He was by the spiritual lake, practicing his fist techniques.
