The Heavenly Command Stone continued to emit the red glow, which gradually grew darker and darker until it changed from light red to deep red—something that had not occurred in the Heavenly Command Sect in the last thousand years. This talent level was higher than that of the current sect master.
Ah!!!
"Is this real, or am I dreaming? His talent is even higher than our current sectmaster!"
"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! This is a devil! How could such a level of talent come from someone from the lower world? Oh, it's not true! Noooooo!!!"
"This must be a dream for sure! Or maybe I fainted when he caused the stone to start glowing red. Or maybe I might just…" Slap!!! "Ah! Why did you slap me? Oh! It's not a dream! This is real!"
The second that Zheng-Fu caused the stone to emit a deep red glow, the audience and the representatives from the large clans and powerful forces held their breath for a moment. It was already difficult to convince him to join their groups when he made the stone glow red. Now that it had progressed to a deep red light, there was no chance for them to approach Zheng-Fu. Most of all, the sect would definitely not allow Zheng-Fu to join any groups.
Aside from the shocked audience and the powerful individuals, Lan-Si, who was about to walk away, had a pale face as if he had seen a ghost. He had previously made a disdainful statement, claiming that a high talent level did not imply strength. But now that Zheng-Fu's talent level had reached a deep red light, how could this kid not be a powerful person? He would definitely receive special care and support from the sect—whether it was resources or accommodations, he would get the best of everything.
Even Jiang-Long could not help but be shocked. He also did not expect Zheng-Fu to perform so well. However, he smiled happily in the end because Zheng-Fu was one of the disciples his father had chosen from the lower world. The more successful Zheng-Fu became, the more honored his father would feel.
"I knew you wouldn't disappoint me!"
Back to Zheng-Fu...
At this moment, Zheng-Fu felt as though he had slipped into another world. It was a world full of emptiness but filled with endless Heaven Energy. He could feel that the energy within him had increased many times faster than before, and the number of his Heavenly Core Pillars had already increased to fifty-five.
"What happened outside? Why is there such a loud noise? Did I... Huh!!?" At that moment, Zheng-Fu was jolted out of the dimensional world he had slipped into. He could sense that he had caused some commotion. Zheng-Fu noticed that the light the Heavenly Command Stone was emitting was already red. He remembered that this was the highest light level the current sectmaster had ever achieved, but it was a light red—not a deep red like his.
"Too bad! It seems that the red light is about to turn into a purple light. I must hurry to stop it from going too far. Otherwise, it might bring me bad luck!" Seeing that the deep red light was about to turn purple, Zheng-Fu immediately disconnected from the Heavenly Command Stone, causing the deep red light to gradually fade and stop.
Flop!!!
[The highest Divine King stage, deep red light!]
Ah!!!
Oh!!!
"The light of the Heavenly Command Stone has stopped! The test is complete!"
"I thought he would make the stone glow purple. If that had happened, our sect would have had a big celebration. Sigh! Unfortunately, I couldn't eat at the banquet!"
"Just the deep red light is very good. This talent level is higher than that of our current sectmaster!"
After Zheng-Fu removed his hand from the Heavenly Command Stone, he turned around to walk down from the testing stage, at that moment, he was startled by how many people were watching him. Among them were many high-level cultivators whose energy levels he could not detect.
"Wha… what... what happened here!!?"
Zheng-Fu muttered with a puzzled look as he walked down the stage. He put his doubts aside and asked Jiang-Long, "What happened here? Why are there so many people? Or are there troubles?" Zheng-Fu asked the young man, unaware that the reason so many people had gathered in the testing courtyard was because of him alone.
As soon as Zheng-Fu finished asking, Jiang-Long suddenly slipped out of his delusional reverie. His gaze at Zheng-Fu changed from shock to delight before he answered, "It's all because of you, Zheng-Fu," Jiang-Long replied with a sly smile.
"Because of me? Why is it because of me? Or… Ah!" Zheng-Fu finally realized what he had done, and that the reason so many people had gathered in the testing courtyard was because he had caused the Heavenly Command Stone to emit a deep red glow. According to what he had heard from the Jiang-Long, only the current sectmaster had ever made the stone glow red, and it had been over a hundred years since anyone else had been able to do so.
"Hehe! So, what will happen to me next?" Zheng-Fu raised his hand, embarrassedly scratching his head with a slight laugh before asking what would happen next.
"Nothing will happen to you other than the special disciple status you will receive. Now you must follow me to meet the pillar elders at the Moon Gazing Tower. As for you... Elder Lue-Yong, continue to test new disciples. Don't let the time be wasted!"
"Huh!!?"
At that moment, a middle-aged man walked in and answered Zheng-Fu's question instead of Jiang-Long and told Zheng-Fu to follow him to a certain place.
"Respect, Elder Min-Hou!"
"Elder Min-Hou!"
Both Jiang-Long and Elder Lue-Yong humbly greeted this middle-aged man. This man was actually one of the inner elders in charge of the prime disciples within the Heavenly Command Sect. And the words 'Moon Gazing Tower' that the middle-aged man said made the lower-ranking disciples' and some elders' eyes widen in shock.
"Just now, Elder Min-Hou said Moon Gazing Tower, right?"
"I heard that too. But where is Moon Gazing Tower? Isn't that a brothel?"
"Brothel your ass! That's the residence of the five pillar elders who are the pillars of our sect. If you said that, beware of getting kicked out of the sect!"
"Err! I don't know. I'm sorry!"
Many disciples knew where the Moon Gazing Tower was, but also many people did not. Most disciples with white light talent did not know much about the Moon Gazing Tower because they did not have access to very in-depth information.
"Respect, Elder Min-Hou! May I have a moment to talk to Brother Jiang-Long, sir?" When Zheng-Fu knew who this middle-aged man was and knew that he had to follow him, he asked for some time to talk to Jiang-Long first.
"All right! You're already a disciple of Elder Wan-Shi, Jiang-Long's father, anyway. You can talk comfortably. But don't take too long because now the five Pillar elders and the sectmaster are waiting for you at the Moon Gazing Tower!" The middle-aged man nodded and smiled warmly at Zheng-Fu, allowing him to talk to Jiang-Long for a moment.
"Thank you, Elder!"
With permission, Zheng-Fu turned to speak to Jiang-Long. All he wanted to say to the young man was to ask about the five pillar elders, their habits, and identities. Zheng-Fu knew that at least Jiang-Long had to know those elders, even though he probably did not know them deeply.
And Jiang-Long told Zheng-Fu all he knew. It took only a short time because the stories that young men knew were really very few.
"Thank you very much for your advice! I have to excuse myself now. When I finish my errands, I'll go see you in the north area!" Zheng-Fu thanked the young man for his advice. Even though it was not much, it was still better than knowing nothing.
"Elder Min-Hou, I'm done talking. Let's go!" Zheng-Fu turned around and spoke to the middle-aged man.
"Hmm! Then you follow me. My white crane is waiting over there!" The middle-aged man nodded. He led Zheng-Fu to an open courtyard that had a large circular area in its center, like a helipad. But what was inside the large circle was not a helicopter but a large white crane that was more than three meters tall and nearly ten meters long.
"That's…! …So big!!!" Zheng-Fu even exclaimed as he saw the huge white crane in front of him. As Zheng-Fu observed, this crane had to have a very high energy level; otherwise, it would not be able to release that much latent energy wave and so much pressure.
"Well! Hurry up and get on its back! Let's go to Moon Gazing Tower!" The middle-aged man just glanced at Zheng-Fu and smiled contentedly at his shocked expression. It was natural for people from the lower world to be shocked when they saw his crane, or even the people from the higher world still had to make some expressions when they saw it.
This white crane was an Immortal monster beast with the same spirit and intelligence as a human around eight to ten years old. Plus, its energy level was up to the ninth level of the Heavenly Golden Core stage. Just this characteristic made it a high-class beast of burden that everyone wanted. And it also had a very high price if anyone was going to buy it.
Flop!!! Flop!!!
When the middle-aged man and Zheng-Fu jumped up and stood on the back of a large white crane, Min-Hou immediately ordered his crane to fly towards the Moon Gazing Tower. In the instant that it flapped its wings, its body had already floated tens of meters into the sky. And with one more flutter, it was able to dash forward about five hundred meters. It was even faster than Zheng-Fu's Noah Zeppelin.
Swish!!!
Wooooooooooosh!!!
