Three days had passed...
Swish!!! Swish!!!
The journey back to In-See City took a total of three days. But when traveling to the capital city, Zheng-Fu took less time than this. That was because, on the way back, Zheng-Fu was not in a complete state, so he traveled half as slowly as when he had first traveled. Anyway, throughout these three days, Zheng-Fu traveled very smoothly.
Now he had nearly arrived in In-See City; the city wall was only one kilometer away. With his energy level, just a few breaths of an ordinary person, Zheng-Fu had already arrived in front of the city gates. And as he was about to arrive, he could feel someone he was familiar with.
That person was standing patrolling on the city wall with the generals of the city lord. He was Hai-Dong, Zheng-Fu's sworn brother.
Thump!!!
"Big Brother, congrats on this promotion."
Huh...?
"Little Brother Zheng-Fu!"
When Hai-Dong turned to look at the owner of the voice and found that it was Zheng-Fu, he immediately rushed over and hugged him tightly with joy, like a child who had not seen his parents for a long time.
"Big Brother, you hugged me too tight. If you hug me like this, others will misunderstand," Zheng-Fu said as he tried to remove Hai-Dong's arm because there were many people around them.
"Ha ha ha. I'm sorry. I was too happy, I forgot," Hai-Dong said with an embarrassed smile before stepping back.
"But why are you here? Shouldn't you continue with your cultivation?" Zheng-Fu asked with a slightly puzzled expression.
"About that... I'm not in a hurry right now. Besides, others still haven't come out of energy absorption. I'm afraid there'll be trouble while everyone hasn't finished absorbing the energy, so I'm in charge of checking here," Hai-Dong explained why he was here.
Um...
Zheng-Fu nodded in response and did not say anything further. He knew that he could not force Hai-Dong on this matter, so he only continued, "Then I shall excuse myself. When you are ready, I want you to immediately absorb the energy from the second pill I gave you. I think it won't be long before something bad happens.
Therefore, the higher the level you and the others are, the greater the safety and chance of controlling the situation."
Zheng-Fu said that with a serious look on his face. He did not know what would happen in the future because even people from the Demon Tribe had appeared. And there was also the Savage Evil Cult in the dark. If anything happened and the people around him were not strong enough, then they would be in trouble.
"I see. You can trust me. By the way, your business is done?" Hai-Dong knew what Zheng-Fu had said was very disturbing and that Zheng-Fu was very serious, but he did not want him to think too hard, so he asked to change the topic.
"Already done," Zheng-Fu replied with a nod.
"Then, are you going to the sect first, or are you going to go back to your clan?"
"I think I'll go to the sect first."
"Um... Once I finish my work here, I'll go see you."
"Alright."
When the two finished speaking, Zheng-Fu immediately headed towards the Beyond Earth Sect at a speed that was hard to see with the naked eye. And it only took a few minutes for him to arrive.
Arriving at the entrance of the sect, Zheng-Fu found that it was very bustling. Many of the Beyond Earth Sect's disciples walked in and out and stopped talking around the area. Most of them were outer disciples, and two of them included the light green-robed young man and the one-eyed blind young man that Zheng-Fu had previously met.
Flop!!!
"Respect, Young Master Zheng-Fu," the light green-robed young man, who was now wearing Beyond Earth Sect's outer disciple robe, immediately greeted him when he saw Zheng-Fu.
Huh...?
His greeting made all the disciples around the area turn to look at Zheng-Fu, including the one-eyed blind young man.
"Respect, Young Master Zheng-Fu!!!"
Before long, when everyone had regained their senses, they all greeted Zheng-Fu with respect and admiration. Someone suddenly showed a happy smile when they met him. And many young women looked at him with sweet smiles and sparkling eyes.
These girls were all outer disciples who had just arrived last month. Some of them were young misses from big families. Some were sent from sects and large parties because, by now, the sects, clans, and parties realized that they could not insult or fight the Beyond Earth Sect, or were even unable to compare with them.
In just a few months, the Divine Emperor stage identities that everyone had dreamed of and wanted to be for tens of hundreds of years were born in this Beyond Earth Sect, and there were even four people. So how could they compare with them?
If it were not for their long history, some sects might even be closed and join the Beyond Earth Sect. And, of course, even if they were not part of the sect, they could send their disciples in and make a name for their sect.
The big clans and the big sects thought the same thing. Even if they had a long history, they could not even create an identity on the Divine Emperor stage. The highest level they could reach was simply the highest level of the Immortal stage. But before reaching that level, they were already very old.
It was very different from the Beyond Earth Sect as the levels of the new disciples who had just entered the sect advanced rapidly. And there were already many people who were able to level up to the Immortal stage within a short period of time.
In addition to the large number of resources that they received from the sect, they also lived in a place full of Qi energy. The higher the level of their disciple ranking, the higher the items they would receive and the better the area they were in.
Not to mention super-skilled guys of all disciple ranks; they received more resources than others and were well taken care of by the sect. If they reached thirty years old and their cultivation level had not yet reached the Immortal Soul stage in the future, they could choose to continue working in the sect or leave.
They would, of course, retain the alumni disciple status of the Beyond Earth Sect. And as disciples of the Beyond Earth Sect, they all had great opportunities from Blueland's force or the big clans.
"Mhm... In just a month, your abilities and demeanor have advanced quite a lot," Zheng-Fu nodded at the young man and spoke to him casually.
"It was all because of Young Master's guidance that day. If it wasn't for you helping me, Pan-Zheng-Dong wouldn't have today," said the young man, clasping his hands in respectful gratitude to Zheng-Fu.
"I didn't guide you much; it's you who can understand it yourself," Zheng-Fu said simply, not directly accepting nor rejecting.
"Even so, I must thank you anyway." The young man knew that Zheng-Fu did not want to admit it, but he still wanted to thank Zheng-Fu.
"Then it's up to you. Now your energy level should be an inner disciple, but it's the sect's rule that everyone has to pass the promotion exam. So, in the next exam, I hope that you'll be successfully promoted to be the inner disciple," Zheng-Fu finished speaking and walked away immediately.
"I'll do my best, sir."
Zheng-Fu's words made the young man, Pan-Zheng-Dong, strangely energized. Besides, all the disciples around him felt like him as well, especially the one-eyed blind young man who was not far from Pan-Zheng-Dong. He could clearly hear the two's entire conversation and had the same feelings as the young man, Pan-Zheng-Dong.
"Though I am not a prime disciple now, if I get promoted one day, with my energy level, I might be able to climb to the top ten prime disciples," said the one-eyed blind young man cheerfully with a slight smile of happiness.
After Zheng-Fu had left, there were still many disciples at the entrance. Everyone left the sect to do a mission to earn points. Some went hunting monster beasts in the monster beast forest to bring their bodies and parts back to earn points.
Zheng-Fu did not stop anywhere other than immediately heading toward the main mansion. Soon, when he arrived there, he felt that four others were still sitting and absorbing the energy of the pills. And it seemed that they would be finished absorbing soon.
Whoosh!!!
And it was exactly what Zheng-Fu thought. The four of them opened their eyes at the same time as if they had telepathy. But they still did not move. They only let out a soft breath to adjust the energy within their bodies.
Phew!!!
Click!!! Crack!!! Click!!! Crack!!!
The sound of bones gradually grew louder. And it rang loudly as everyone started to move. It took them a month and thirteen days to absorb all the energy from the pills. The remaining four were Dan-Chun-Gu, Fu-Tao-Qi, Lang-Guang-Kuang, and Dong-Chen.
The four of them all absorbed eight parts of the energy from the pills, less than Elder Hai-Tu, Hai-Dong, and Dong-Kuang by only one part. It could be considered that their talent was high because absorbing up to eight parts of the energy was already at a high level.
Dan-Chun-Gu's energy level, after absorbing the energy from the pill, was now at the half-step of the Divine Emperor stage. Just a little more and he would be able to advance to the Divine Emperor stage. If he had absorbed nine parts of the energy from the pill, then he would definitely be able to level up.
As for Fu-Tao-Qi and Lang-Guang-Kuang, they were now at the intermediate eighth level of the Immortal Soul stage. They both had the same abilities but were good at different things.
And the last one was Dong-Chen, who now had an energy level much higher than all his adherents. Even Yan-Yu, Ji-Zhung-Gong, and Wu-Xiao, who were the previous generations, could not compete with his energy level. With just the first pill, he was already able to advance to the sixth level of the Immortal Soul stage, which was quite unbelievable.
