Officially Equipping the Rainbow Trait: Pill Ancestor Descends to the Mortal World

The small-scale world fusion in downtown Spirit City seemed to have ended there.

Small-scale world fusions like this frequently occurred on Blue Star. Usually, only a small area would briefly fuse with another world before separating again after a certain period and returning to normal.

Sometimes, however, massive world fusions occurred, creating permanent passages to other worlds.

When that happened, countless sect masters were needed to guard those passages, or even enter them to stand guard in other worlds, explore, and extract resources.

The otherworldly creatures that had crossed over through this world fusion had now been cleared out.

Although one Foundation Establishment Realm creature had escaped back to the other world, ordinary cultivators did not dare cross into an alien world without authorization during a small-scale fusion like this.

The civilian cultivators who had come to help had already withdrawn, leaving only a few official cultivators stationed there to guard against further developments.

The Spirit City High School students who had come to help also returned to school to continue participating in the third week's cultivation technique progress competition.

Compared to the first two weeks, time in the third week was even more precious.

After all, during the third week, time within their sects flowed a hundred times faster, allowing their disciples to rapidly improve their cultivation realms and deepen their understanding of cultivation techniques.

Lin Feng likewise left downtown Spirit City and returned to school.

Along the way, however, Lin Daqiang began frantically currying favor with Lin Feng, seemingly hoping to salvage his image in Lin Feng's eyes.

He repeatedly declared that he must have lost his mind earlier to dare speak so rudely and mock Lin Feng. He also proclaimed that he would henceforth be the Evergreen Sect's staunchest follower, and that, if needed, his Supreme Strength Sect would immediately apply to become the Evergreen Sect's subordinate sect.

Lin Feng merely smiled faintly at this, neither agreeing nor refusing.

After most people had withdrawn, a faint fluctuation quietly emerged at the boundary between Blue Star and the alien world in downtown Spirit City. A strangely behaving human was furtively attempting to cross over from the other world.

Their movements were somewhat stiff and their behavior sluggish, unlike a normal person's.

The instant they appeared, three attacks descended simultaneously from the sky, striking the strangely behaving human directly.

At the same time, a cold shout rang out:

"Hmph! I knew you mimics would try to sneak onto Blue Star at the very end!"

Faced with the three attacks, the strangely behaving human who had crossed over unleashed a surge of spiritual energy, attempting to resist.

Unfortunately, all three attacks were full-power strikes from Golden Core Realm cultivators, leaving the intruder struggling to withstand them.

The figure that had only just crossed over was forced to retreat into their original world.

At that moment, the fused region between the other world and Blue Star began gradually separating. Eventually, downtown Spirit City returned to normal.

Only after carefully checking the area and ensuring they had missed nothing did the three Golden Core cultivators exchange glances and fly toward Spirit City High School.

Sect World 999, the second day of the cultivation technique progress competition.

Within the Evergreen Sect.

A year had passed.

The two newly recruited inner disciples with high-grade spirit roots had now broken through to the Qi Refining First Layer.

Over that year, quite a few sect disciples had also cultivated the Three-Transformation Evergreen Art, Tiger Roar Fist, Wind-Splitting Claw, and other techniques to the introductory or minor accomplishment level.

However, none of the newly recruited disciples had yet cultivated any of those techniques to major accomplishment.

As promised, Lin Feng rewarded the disciples who had reached introductory or minor accomplishment with spirit stones, encouraging them to maintain their enthusiasm for cultivation.

Today, Lin Feng summoned the Evergreen Sect's fourth personal disciple, Li Jishi, the former head of the Life-Saving Medical Clinic.

After evaluating her for over a year, Lin Feng decided it was time to equip Li Jishi with that rainbow alchemy trait, along with the absolute loyalty trait.

Over the past year, Li Jishi had likewise entered the Qi Refining First Layer and cultivated several techniques to the introductory or even minor accomplishment level.

However, she spent more of her time in the sect's spirit fields, observing the spirit plants and herbs, hoping to try incorporating them into medicinal prescriptions or pill formulas.

Although the Evergreen Sect's Alchemy Hall had long since been established, the sect did not actually have any pill formulas it could use directly.

The Evergreen Sect now had hundreds of mu of spirit fields filled with spirit herbs and plants, yet it had not managed to refine a single pill.

However, the older spirit herbs and plants grew, the stronger their medicinal effects became, so Lin Feng was in no hurry.

"Disciple Li Jishi pays her respects to Master."

Lin Feng nodded slightly, then gestured for Li Jishi to sit beside him.

Although Li Jishi's looks could not compare to Lin Wan'er's, her bearing had a distinctive charm-a bearing of one who brought relief to all beneath heaven.

Lin Feng felt that this bearing came more from her healer's benevolent heart trait.

Besides healer's benevolent heart, Li Jishi also possessed three other traits: practicing medicine to save the world, pill expert, and high-grade spirit root.

Of these, pill expert was a purple trait. Although it provided a certain boost to her pill-refining success rate, it was a hundred and eight thousand li behind the rainbow alchemy trait, Pill Ancestor Descends to the Mortal World.

This time, Lin Feng decided to replace Li Jishi's practicing medicine to save the world and pill expert traits, replacing pill expert with Pill Ancestor Descends to the Mortal World, and practicing medicine to save the world with absolute loyalty.

Although Lin Feng could see over the past year that Li Jishi was thoroughly loyal to the sect, he still decided to equip the absolute loyalty trait as well.

After all, this was the sect's first rainbow trait, and he needed to proceed cautiously.

Then Lin Feng asked Li Jishi:

"Do you know why I took you as a personal disciple back then, while the others with high-grade spirit roots could only become inner disciples?"

Li Jishi shook her head. She had wondered about that for a long time back then, too.

Compared to the other inner disciples with high-grade spirit roots, she did not think there was anything special about her.

She could understand Lu Daxi, who had come with him, being accepted as a personal disciple, but she was deeply puzzled that she had been accepted as one too.

Lin Feng said:

"Just as I promised you back then, our Evergreen Sect still lacks a disciple to oversee the Alchemy Hall, and you happen to have talent in that area."

"Although your talent in this area isn't outstanding, it still far surpasses everyone else's. Today, I will improve your talent in the Dao of Alchemy and make you a personal disciple worthy of the name. At the same time, you must be absolutely loyal to me and to the Evergreen Sect. Are you willing?"

Having already embarked on the immortal path, Li Jishi understood what Lin Feng's words meant. She immediately rose and bowed respectfully to him.

"I, disciple Li Jishi, hereby swear upon my Dao heart that I will be absolutely loyal to the Evergreen Sect and to Master for the rest of my life."

Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction, then officially equipped Li Jishi with the two traits, [Absolute loyalty] and [Pill Ancestor Descends to the Mortal World].
