The Senior Sisters in the Spiritual Spring!

Supreme Simplicity Sect.

Dongfang Bai sensed a vibration inside his Storage Bag and immediately took out an identity token from it. It was a Black-Yellow Sect identity token. He had brought it with him to the Supreme Simplicity Sect, which would not search him. Even if someone saw the token, they would not know what it was. He could easily say he had found it in some ruins and had not figured it out, and the Supreme Simplicity Sect would not suspect him.

"Fourth Junior Brother sent a message."

He received the message and learned that his fourth junior brother had arrived. He hurriedly told the deacon in charge that he was going to Supreme Simplicity City to buy some things, then left the Supreme Simplicity Sect without trouble.

A short while later.

Supreme Simplicity City.

Dongfang Bai met his fourth junior brother, Yang Yang, in a private room at a restaurant.

"Fourth Junior Brother."

"Second Senior Brother."

The two sat down, and Yang Yang stopped eating and drinking. He then took a manual out of his Storage Bag and handed it to Dongfang Bai. "Master gave me this Swordsmanship for you. He's so good to you, giving you a low-grade earth-tier Swordsmanship for free. I'm so jealous."

"If you're jealous, why don't we trade places?"

"Uh, never mind." Yang Yang said no more and went back to eating his big leg of lamb.

Dongfang Bai opened the manual and read through the Bixie Swordsmanship. When he finished, he was utterly shocked. "This earth-tier Swordsmanship is terrifying, a Swordsmanship of ultimate speed! Compared to it, that Supreme Simplicity Sword Technique of the Supreme Simplicity Sect is dog shit!"

"Second Senior Brother, you're a woman. Mind your language, or you'll give yourself away."

"Ahem, I only talk like this here. At the Supreme Simplicity Sect, I do watch my image." Dongfang Bai put the manual away, delighted. Once he mastered the Bixie Swordsmanship, combined with his Taiyi Needle Technique, he would have powerful means of attack at both close and long range. His strength would soar.

"Fourth Junior Brother, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first, lest the Supreme Simplicity Sect finds out."

"All right, go on. I'll keep eating." Yang Yang waved a hand.

Dongfang Bai did not return just yet. He kept up appearances and bought some things, including rouge and other gifts for the senior sisters of the Supreme Simplicity Sect. That way, he could gain their trust and goodwill, and obtain more useful information in the future.

Yang Yang was in no hurry to return to the Black-Yellow Sect. He had finally made it to Supreme Simplicity City, so he had to at least sample all its delicacies. Otherwise, wouldn't the trip have been for nothing?

Supreme Yin Peak, Supreme Simplicity Sect.

Dongfang Bai gave gifts of rouge and other things to each of the senior sisters, including Xu Yan. This made many of them even fonder of their newly arrived little "junior sister."

"Dongfang Bai is quite good. She has a fine character, knows how to conduct herself, and probably has good aptitude as well. Perhaps she has a chance of becoming a True Disciple of our sect!" Li Xuansu, who was watching from a distance, nodded in satisfaction.

Another day passed.

Dongfang Bai began practicing the Bixie Swordsmanship. He had thought it would be difficult to cultivate, but the result shocked him: after just one day of practice, he reached the entry level!!!!

"What? Since when did my talent become so good? I reached the entry level in an earth-tier Swordsmanship in one day?"

"No, it's not that my talent is so good. The Bixie Swordsmanship and the Sunflower Manual are the same kind of martial Cultivation Method, and they're highly compatible. The Swordsmanship might even have been created specifically for the Sunflower Manual. That's why I was able to master it so quickly."

He continued his arduous practice, and after three days, he had cultivated the Bixie Swordsmanship to minor mastery.

On the sixth day, he reached major mastery in the Bixie Swordsmanship.

"Hiss~~~" Dongfang Bai truly sucked in a breath. An earth-tier Swordsmanship at major mastery! At this rate, he could cultivate it to perfection in half a month at most.

He then took out the Supreme Simplicity Sword Technique. As a "disciple" of the Supreme Simplicity Sect, he could hardly justify not knowing it. He still had a long time to spend in the sect, so he had to learn it.

After mastering the Bixie Swordsmanship to the major mastery stage, his attainment in swordsmanship had improved greatly. Looking back at the Supreme Simplicity Sword Technique, he found it far too simple. He practiced it casually for a short while and reached the entry level.

"Not bad. With my current understanding of swordsmanship, I should be able to bring the Supreme Simplicity Sword Technique to major mastery in just a few days."

Just then, Elder Li Xuansu arrived.

"Elder." Dongfang Bai cupped his hands.

"Dongfang Bai, the sect's spiritual spring has opened. I'm giving you a place, so go with a few of your senior sisters and cultivate in the spring," Li Xuansu said.

"The spiritual spring!"

Dongfang Bai was no longer a new disciple, so he naturally knew what the spiritual spring was. It was hailed as one of the Supreme Simplicity Sect's six great treasures. The spring contained water abundant in Spiritual Qi, much like the Black-Yellow Sect's Pure Yang Blood Spring. The difference was that the Black-Yellow Sect's Pure Yang Blood Spring required Demon Beasts to be hunted, while the spiritual spring produced Spiritual Qi-infused water on its own.

Cultivating in the spiritual spring would greatly improve one's cultivation, but it took time for the spring to accumulate its Spiritual Qi-infused water, so it generally opened only once every few months.

"Thank you, Elder!"

Dongfang Bai was excited, and he was not faking it. After all, cultivating in the spiritual spring would allow his strength to rise rapidly. His fourth junior brother Yang Yang and fifth junior brother Han Bing had both reached the True Qi Realm before him, and he wanted to break through to the True Qi Realm sooner and catch up with them.

"Go and prepare."

"Yes!"

Dongfang Bai replied.

Half a day later.

Dongfang Bai came to the spiritual spring with several senior sisters from Supreme Yin Peak, including Xu Yan and several senior sisters in the True Qi Realm.

The spiritual spring was large enough to accommodate hundreds of female disciples. At that moment, hundreds of female disciples from the Supreme Simplicity Sect were jumping into it, and some even shed their... clothes.

One of the True Qi Realm senior sisters from Supreme Yin Peak did just that. They believed that having their skin in full contact with the spring water would allow them to better absorb its energy.

"Junior Sister Dongfang, would you like to take off..."

"No, I'll pass."

How could Dongfang Bai dare take off his clothes? If he did, he could guarantee that every single female disciple here would run away, and he would not survive either. Some elder would slap him to death.

Fortunately, although he was born male, he had a woman's appearance and had no reaction at all to the bevy of beauties. If any of his senior or junior brothers were in his place, their noses would probably spray blood.

He settled in a corner, submerged half his body, and began circulating the Sunflower Body Refining Technique, using the spring water for Body Refining cultivation. Time slowly passed. With the energy of the spring water and the astonishing effects of the Sunflower Body Refining Technique, he absorbed a large amount of the spring water's energy, and his cultivation rose rapidly.

One day.

Two days.

Three days.

On the fifth day, the spring water's energy was exhausted, and the many Supreme Simplicity Sect disciples left one after another. Dongfang Bai left as well. His cultivation had broken straight through to the Body Forging Realm Ninth Layer Peak. After a few more times, he could attempt to break through to the True Qi Realm.

With Dongfang Bai's breakthrough, Dongfang Rou, Ye Chen, and the other disciples also broke through. With the tenfold feedback, their breakthroughs caused Lin Ye's cultivation to soar.
