"H-husband, did I see that right? Our Ning'er has come back from the dead?!"
Tear tracks streaked the peerless beauty's face, but her expression was full of excitement.
Her daughter, Ji Zining, had died young before her eyes an hour ago, leaving her grief-stricken.
Now that she had come back to life, how could she not rejoice?
The dignified middle-aged man could hardly maintain his own dignified bearing, his face filled with joy.
"Ning'er is not only alive and well, but her severed meridians have disappeared too! Her life force is now even stronger than that of a Qi Refining Realm cultivator!"
"On top of that, an incredibly dense immortal spirit Qi is emerging within her body."
"Ning'er is awakening some kind of powerful physique! But what kind of physique could draw in immortal spirit Qi when it awakens?!"
"Immortal spirit Qi?!"
The peerless beauty came to her senses, remembering the pillar of immortal spirit Qi she had seen outside!
That immortal spirit Qi had actually been drawn here by Ning'er's awakening physique?!
Immortal spirit Qi was a power that could only come into being after one became an immortal, yet her Ning'er had drawn it in!
Suddenly, the dignified middle-aged man seemed to recall something, and his body jolted.
"Could this be the supreme physique recorded in that ancient text?"
The peerless beauty, Chen Qingqian, barely managed to contain her excitement and asked aloud.
"Husband, what supreme physique is that? Ning'er had an unawakened special physique? Why didn't we discover it before?"
The sudden plunge into despair and rise to joy left Chen Qingqian unable to describe how she felt.
Excitement?
Delight?
Amid her tangled emotions, Chen Qingqian was also very curious. They had tested Ji Zining's aptitude before, but had found no special physique.
They had only discovered her severed meridians, which had filled them with despair.
Severed meridians, as the name implied, meant one could not cultivate and would die young.
Now, not only had the severed meridians disappeared, but Ji Zining was also awakening a supreme physique that Chen Qingqian knew nothing about.
Their Ning'er had not only come back to life, but also gained the possibility of cultivating!
The dignified middle-aged man, Ji Chenkong, took a deep breath and gazed at Ji Zining, who was undergoing the baptism of immortal spirit Qi.
"I once read about a physique that existed only in legend in an ancient text from the Ziwei Holy Land."
"When this physique awakens, it draws immortal spirit Qi down to transform the body."
"It also brings forth one hundred and eight phenomena, radiating awe-inspiring immortal might."
"This physique is called the Exquisite Immortal Physique!"
The Exquisite Immortal Physique!
Just hearing the name was enough to make Chen Qingqian sense its incredible power, even without understanding it.
An immortal physique!
How could a physique worthy of being called an immortal physique be ordinary?
As she gazed at Ji Zining in midair, the light in Chen Qingqian's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Their daughter could not only cultivate, but also had the potential to become a powerful expert!
Ji Zining vaguely sensed someone entering the hall. After detecting no hostility, she focused on getting a feel for her new body.
Immortal spirit Qi flowed through every corner of her body, rendering the body whose meridians had once been blocked pure and flawless.
Immortal light also shimmered faintly across the surface of her skin.
Although she still had no cultivation, Ji Zining felt that her strength had increased more than tenfold.
The sensation of growing stronger was so wonderful that Ji Zining became somewhat absorbed in it.
It feels this wonderful before I've even started cultivating. What will it feel like once I do?
Atop an immortal mountain an immeasurable distance away, a white-haired young man sat cross-legged.
As though sensing something, the white-haired young man's gaze sharpened, and he looked into the distance.
"Immortal spirit Qi has descended from the heavens, and one hundred and eight phenomena have appeared!"
"Could that physique have awakened in our Eastern Domain?!"
The white-haired young man rose to his feet and spoke in a deep voice.
"Pass down my order. Three days from now, our Ziwei Holy Land will hold a disciple recruitment ceremony!"
As his voice fell, a middle-aged man with a powerful presence appeared behind him and respectfully cupped his hands to him.
After a moment's hesitation, the middle-aged man spoke up.
"Ancestor, we recruited disciples only three years ago. There are still seven years until the next recruitment. Perhaps you might reconsider..."
The white-haired young man waved a hand.
"My mind is made up. Go make the arrangements and spread the word: three days from now, our Ziwei Holy Land will hold a disciple recruitment ceremony!"
With that, the white-haired young man vanished from where he stood, leaving only his voice echoing across the immortal mountain.
"It must be held to the highest standard, one that can show the strength of our Ziwei Holy Land!"
On the immortal mountain, the middle-aged man looked utterly bewildered.
What's gotten into the ancestor?
The disciple recruitment ceremony, held once every ten years, had been moved forward by a full seven years!
The middle-aged man looked into the distance, his gaze growing profound.
Is it because of the phenomena in the distance?
Has the ancestor taken a fancy to the prodigy who caused them?
But their Ziwei Holy Land was one of the four great holy lands of the mighty True Martial Dao Domain. Surely there was no need to go this far for a prodigy who had caused some phenomena?
Even if the number of phenomena this prodigy had caused was somewhat large.
Somewhere in the void.
The white-haired young man had completely abandoned his earlier air of an esteemed expert, his face brimming with excitement.
"The Exquisite Immortal Physique! It really is the Exquisite Immortal Physique! It actually appeared in the Eastern Domain. The heavens want our Ziwei Holy Land to take this prodigy in as a disciple!"
"But before that, it would be better to go form a good connection."
As he spoke, he picked up speed and hurried toward Flowing Moon City.
Flowing Moon City.
The hall where Ji Zining was.
The pillar of immortal spirit Qi began to turn transparent, until it dissipated completely.
The phenomena in the sky also slowly faded away with the disappearance of the immortal spirit Qi.
Ji Zining's body drifted down from midair, and she landed steadily on the ground.
Ji Zining glanced at her palm, her face full of joy.
This system sign-in is pretty amazing!
It gave me such a powerful physique on my first sign-in. I wonder what other good things I'll get from future sign-ins?
I have a special physique now, but I'm still lacking a Cultivation Method and Divine Abilities.
"Ning'er..."
Just then, a woman's voice rang out, trembling with restrained excitement, bringing Ji Zining back to her senses.
The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Ji Zining, and she could not help looking up toward its source.
She saw a peerless beauty dressed in plain white mourning robes, looking at her with tears of joy in her eyes.
Upon seeing the peerless beauty, Ji Zining called out instinctively.
"Mother."
In her memories, this was the original owner's mother, who had always doted on her.
Now, this woman was her mother.
Chen Qingqian nodded repeatedly.
"It's Mother, it's Mother, Ning'er..."
As she spoke, Chen Qingqian hurried forward and wrapped Ji Zining in her arms, tears falling without end.
"My Ning'er, you're still alive. That's wonderful..."
Ji Zining's body stiffened, and she was somewhat at a loss.
She was not the original owner, after all, and could not quite accept it at once.
But sensing Chen Qingqian's deep love for her, Ji Zining smiled faintly and embraced her in return.
"Don't worry, Mother. Ning'er will always be here from now on."
Standing at the hall entrance, Ji Chenkong's lips twitched, revealing a faint, happy smile.
His daughter had come back from the dead and even awakened that physique. His Ning'er was going to soar to the heavens in a single bound!
