Acknowledging a Master

The first thing that catches the eye is a beautiful, ancient peach tree in full bloom.

There was a thatched hut next to it, but Yuan Qing felt that the two together did not seem out of place. On the contrary, they complemented each other quite well and had an indescribable charm.

Beside the thatched hut, there is a stone tablet with the three characters ' Lingxian Sect ' written squarely on it.

Further on, there's a place with a sign that reads "General Affairs Hall".

Just as his gaze fell upon the General Affairs Hall, he heard Lin Xiao say to him:

"Let's go, let's go to the General Affairs Hall to register first, and we'll collect your disciple's belongings while we're at it."

It was already afternoon, and dinner time would be in an hour. Liu Yunan's work for the day was finally over. He was stretching in his seat when he saw Lin Xiao lead someone in.

He did recognize this person.

Lately, whenever I pass by Heart-Questioning Road on my way down the mountain, I always see him standing there as punishment.

Lin Xiao had already told everyone about Yuan Qing's background before, so Liu Yunan wasn't too surprised to see him now.

Just then, Liao Pantu also emerged from the small world and came down from the floating island to look for Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao, who was about to say something, only managed to say to Liu Yunan:

He's in your hands now!

Liao Pantu then pulled him away.

Yuan Qing and Liu Yunan were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

Liu Yunan was the first to cough lightly and speak:

"Welcome, Fellow Daoist Yuan, to our sect. This is your sect uniform, and these are your basic cultivation supplies for this month."

As he spoke, he handed over a Storage Bag.

Actually, there wasn't much; it was just a set of sect uniforms, a few Spirit Stone, and a few basic pills.

These are the basic Cultivation Resources that the sect provided for ordinary disciples, as Lin Xiao had previously confirmed with them.

From now on, everyone should follow this standard. If you want to earn more, then find work to do within the sect. If all the vacancies are filled, then go to the General Affairs Hall to take on tasks.

The Lingxian Sect is currently in dire need of workers, so there's no shortage of tasks.

Although the items were few, Yuan Qing had no other thoughts. Back in the Heavenly Profound Sect, if one didn't have status and position, the treatment wasn't much better.

He followed behind Liu Yunan, listening attentively as the General Affairs Hall introduced him to the sect.

That's why there are fewer people now. As the number of people increases, Liu Yunan will find more subordinates for himself, and he won't need to do this kind of training of new people anymore.

As Liu Yunan introduced the facilities, Yuan Qing looked around at the Lingxian Sect's facilities one by one, his astonishment growing rapidly.

Some of these things he had never even seen in the Heavenly Profound Sect.

His curiosity about this sect grew stronger.

On the other side, Liao Pantu led Lin Xiao to the Ten-Li Peach Blossom Tree.

Lin Xiao initially thought it was about the construction of the small world, but unexpectedly, he spoke first:

"Sect Master, you really don't want the Icefield Spirit?"

Seeing that he was referring to this matter, Lin Xiao nodded and smiled:

"I don't need it, give it to Yigao."

Liao Pantu nodded:

"That's what I think too. It's better for that thing to recognize a master and nurture itself as soon as possible; it's a waste to just leave it like this."

While tending to the flowers and plants in his small world today, he suddenly remembered Yuan Ruogu, the Yuan Household patriarch who Qi Deviation.

Then the thought immediately came to mind: the Icefield Spirit, who could prevent this from happening.

Although he was confident that his disciple's strong will would prevent him from being easily invaded by inner demons and unable to overcome them, since this item existed, he naturally gave it to him to use.

So Lin Xiao went to the sect's storeroom, retrieved the sealed Icefield Spirit, and gave it to Liao Pantu.

Having obtained the Icefield Spirit, Liao Pantu rushed off to find his good apprentice Sun Yigao.

Lin Xiao, who had never seen a mastered Icefield Spirit before, followed curiously.

The two arrived outside the private school, just as the school was letting out for the day. They hid to the side and waited until all the students had said goodbye to Master Sun and left before entering the school.

Sun Yigao was about to return to the mountain for dinner, was somewhat surprised to see them arrive.

Liao Pantu didn't waste any words, directly took out the sealed box and handed it to him gently, saying:

"Yigao, this is the Icefield Spirit that I captured in the secret realm before. Quickly make it your master."

Upon hearing this, Sun Yigao was somewhat puzzled, but he was used to his master's sudden pronouncements. He glanced at Lin Xiao and saw him nod in agreement.

Sun Yigao then respectfully accepted it with both hands:

"Thank you for your kindness, Master."

Liao Pantu was delighted to hear him agree. He liked his apprentice's decisive character, unlike some people who were indecisive and hesitant.

So he immediately used his Spiritual Power to envelop the sealed box, sealing off the surrounding area, and then said to Sun Yigao:

"The Icefield Spirit is extremely fast. After you open the box, it will forcefully break through my seal. Immediately squeeze out a drop of your heart's blood and drip it onto it, preferably on your forehead. Then, use your Divine Sense to connect with it. In this way, it will recognize you as its master."

Lin Xiao, who was standing to the side, was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that the process of the Icefield Spirit recognizing him as its master would sound so simple.

Sun Yigao nodded seriously, then solemnly opened the sealed box.

A beam of white light shot out quickly, but it was unable to escape due to the surrounding seals.

Just then, Sun Yigao swiftly forced out a drop of his heart's blood and dripped it onto the Icefield Spirit's forehead, then extended his Divine Sense to envelop the elf.

a long time.

As the summer sky outside gradually darkened, Sun Yigao, who had been keeping his eyes closed while establishing a connection with the Icefield Spirit, finally opened them.

"Alright."

At this moment, he could clearly sense his connection to this Icefield Spirit.

The Icefield Spirit, who had been poised to attack, completely relaxed at this moment. After Liao Pantu lifted the surrounding blockade, it crawled onto Sun Yigao's shoulder, clinging to his neck, its translucent white and slender limbs wrapped around his neck as softly as vines.

Seeing this, Tuantuan, who had been dozing on the table, meowed unhappily and then jumped onto Sun Yigao's other shoulder and lay down.

Seeing the appearance of the Icefield Spirit, Liao Pantu nodded happily and said:

"It's very satisfied with you. Good. From now on, you should train it more and keep it by your side, especially when you're cultivating. Only then can it grow faster."

As he spoke, he took out a Storage Bag and handed it to Sun Yigao, adding:

"Right now, my soul hasn't fully recovered, so I don't have many good items. You can take what's in here for now and feed it regularly, but don't feed it too much at once; it needs time to digest it."

Looking at the Storage Bag handed over by Liao Pantu, Sun Yigao smiled helplessly. However, he knew his master meant well, and since he had already accepted the Icefield Spirit, he didn't know how to feed the little one, so he respectfully accepted it.

Thank you, Master.

There's plenty of time ahead. I'll work hard at my cultivation, and then I can also contribute to the search for my master's soul.
