"Very well, you nine disciples come run with me through the third valley!"
This time, Inheriting Elder led Duan Gujin and the other seven to run through the third valley.
However, this time, in the end, only Duan Gujin alone managed to reach the mountaintop with the Inheriting Elder.
"Indeed, among those below, your strength is the strongest!" the Inheriting Elder praised Duan Gujin.
"I'm just a bit luckier than them, with some Immortal Destiny, that's all!"
Duan Gujin responded.
"Now, I will take you to challenge the Fourth Level. Can you hold on?"
the Inheriting Elder asked.
"Yes!"
Duan Gujin also wanted to know if his Spiritual Power could meet the requirements of the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect.
So, under the leadership of the Inheriting Elder, they set off to challenge the Fourth Level together.
This time, Duan Gujin felt his Divine Soul tremble.
But he did not have any fear and successfully passed the Fourth Level.
"Not bad, your Spiritual Power is truly formidable! The Fourth Level requires a special name tag. Only with a special name tag can one attempt the Fourth Level! This is my name tag for you. As long as you hold this name tag, when the outer disciples check it, they will let you come to the fourth valley!" the Inheriting Elder said.
"Thank you, Elder!"
Duan Gujin took the name tag, showing his gratitude.
"I think you must be eager to try the fifth valley, but don't be too impatient. I saw you just now panting quite heavily. Whenever you have time to test the fifth valley, let me know then!"
the Inheriting Elder said. He felt that Duan Gujin's current strength was only at the Martial Saint Third Level, and with his ability, it would not be likely for him to succeed in the fifth valley suitable for those at Martial Saint Fourth to Sixth Levels.
If a Martial Artist's Spiritual Power is not strong and they force their way through high-difficulty valleys, it's highly likely that their Divine Soul will be severely damaged.
If a Martial Artist's Divine Soul is severely damaged, in most cases, that martial artist would be left half-dead if not dead, and also suffer lingering ailments.
If hidden ailments appear on a Martial Artist's Body, as long as they are visible and tangible, they are relatively easy to treat. However, injuries to the intangible Divine Soul, unseen and unfelt, may be fine when dormant, but once active, the consequences are unthinkable.
"Alright!"
Duan Gujin did not know whether the test of Spiritual Power by the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect was different from his own and did not take the risk of trying it.
The Inheriting Elder led Duan Gujin back to the group and said to everyone, "Now I have a general understanding of your strength. Each one of you has passed the test of the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect, well done! However, this is not your final destination. You all have a long way to go, and every year, a large number of disciples are eliminated from the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect. We will hold many tests in the future, and the disciples at the end of the rank will have to leave! You all must cultivate well here in the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect and never think you can just muddle through the tests. I can tell you, the tests of the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect focus on the assessment of strength and potential! In short, go back and cultivate well! Today's test is over. After another fifteen days, I will come to give you some basic training! Now, I am going to impart to you some Cultivation Heart Methods of the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect!!"
Then, the Inheriting Elder demonstrated on the spot how to cultivate the Heart Method of the First Level of the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect.
Everyone released their Divine Sense, recording his every move in their hearts.
These disciples quickly memorized the essentials of cultivation of the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect. The essentials were not difficult for them; what truly mattered was the accumulation over time.
This process was very slow, and their Primordial Power would gradually accumulate within their bodies.
When that accumulation reached a certain level, it would burst forth.
After entering the Heaven Stealing Immortal Sect, every disciple was filled with expectation for this new life.
After all, their current life was completely different from their previous lives.
After the team disbanded, Duan Gujin walked with Yan Dapang.
Once back at their lodgings, Yan Dapang sought out Duan Gujin.
Seeing Yan Dapang's worried face, Duan Gujin curiously asked why he looked so troubled.
"Brother Yan, logically speaking, you should be happy now. Has something happened at home?"
Duan Gujin asked in confusion.
"No, you saw today's test. I was the first one who couldn't hold on. Actually, I really wanted to hold on a little longer, but my Divine Soul truly couldn't withstand it!"
Yan Dapang said with an embarrassed expression.
"Oh, I see. If you can't hold on, then don't force yourself to continue! That's very normal!"
Duan Gujin said, his eyes flashing momentarily.
"I feel too ashamed, especially in front of Meng Wanzhen. You know she is the goddess in my heart. To fail first in front of her, that's such an embarrassing thing!"
Yan Dapang lamented.
"What's the use of face? Your strength is mediocre to begin with. As long as you sincerely cultivate from now on, focusing on your cultivation, striving to improve your Cultivation, she will come to regard you with favor eventually. But if you don't focus on cultivation, the gap between you and her will get bigger and bigger!"
Duan Gujin said.
"I was wondering, could you teach me some ways to improve Spiritual Power?"
Yan Dapang asked.
"Oh, I see! I just happen to have a set of methods to enhance the Divine Soul. Wait a moment after you go back, and I'll write it down for you!"
Duan Gujin said.
He suddenly intensified his gaze and asked Yan Dapang to turn around. Then, Duan Gujin's Divine Sense entered Yan Dapang's Divine Soul to inspect it.
"What are you doing?"
Yan Dapang curiously asked.
Duan Gujin said, "I need to check first whether you are suitable for my method of cultivation."
His Divine Sense made a round inside Yan Dapang's body and discovered that Yan Dapang actually had decent potential.
The low level of his Cultivation was largely because his parents had fed him too many Elixir Pills, which caused his meridians to become rigid.
Those rigid meridians could, to some extent, hinder Yan Dapang's potential for further development.
If he wanted to improve Yan Dapang's potential, he would need to subject Yan Dapang to strict training to help him overcome the regrets caused by his father.
"Previously, I only helped you lose weight, but actually, there are many issues with your body. For instance, the accumulation of Primordial Power in your body does not come mainly from your own cultivation but from the forceful impact of spiritual pills. All spiritual pills have flaws, and there are too many impurities in your body. You need to properly refine your meridians. Previously, I only helped you lose body fat, but now there are many impurities in your meridians. I can provide some Spirit Pills for you, but after taking the Spirit Pills, you will have to work hard on refining your own meridians!"
Duan Gujin said.
"Can you really help me remove the impurities in my body?"
Yan Dapang got excited.
"I'll give you a Soul Refining Technique, then I'll give you an Elixir Recipe. Just follow the recipe to gather the medicines, and that'll do!"
Duan Gujin said.
