Lin Wunan felt a surge of excitement within him. If he could take such a powerful figure as his master, he would no longer have to live in constant fear!
How imposing!
How carefree!
Even the Primordial Spirit True Monarch would have to offer everything to redeem himself; otherwise, he would face death and annihilation.
Tsk tsk, with such formidable power, with the ability to turn the tides at will, when would he ever possess such strength?
Though he envied that Lin Feng, the Primordial Spirit True Monarch, for his nonchalance and disregard for worldly matters, it was ultimately unrealistic. Did he not know that deep down, he often cursed himself?
Lin Wunan also hoped that Ye Kai would take him as a disciple, but he worried whether his own innate talent and understanding would catch the eye of such an esteemed figure.
Just as he was caught in this dilemma, he was surprised to hear that the senior was about to leave.
Ye Kai watched the retreating figure of Lin Feng with a sigh; his future was undoubtedly extraordinary.
However, his expression remained calm and unassuming. The Cloud Qi swirling around Jade Mountain transformed into a cloud ladder that descended beneath everyone’s feet. Ye Kai walked up it steadily, and all around him, people looked on with awe.
“One, two, three…” Ye Kai counted silently in his heart as he walked. He certainly couldn’t just leave like that; what had all his efforts been for?
He simply wanted to put on a show. Since he was playing the role of an otherworldly master, he had to maintain the demeanor of one.
Things that come too easily are often not cherished; this applies to the relationship between master and disciple as well. If he appeared too eager, it would seem overly significant.
Moreover, if he acted too enthusiastically, Lin Wunan might develop doubts in his heart. This could damage his future image and authority—something he did not desire.
But if he appeared indifferent and nonchalant, then Lin Wunan would be more inclined to approach him actively.
Indeed, just as Ye Kai was contemplating the seventh step, a voice called out from behind him, "Senior, Senior, please wait!"
"Looks like the fish has taken the bait, or rather, the protagonist has bitten," Ye Kai thought to himself with a smirk, maintaining a calm expression as he turned around to face Lin Wunan without saying a word, simply observing him quietly.
Lin Wunan appeared resolute, his face serious and respectful. "Junior has encountered great misfortune, and to meet you, Senior, is truly a stroke of fate. I have one more request: I humbly ask for your kindness in accepting Wu Nan."
Ye Kai knew exactly how to respond at this moment. With his current acting skills, even if he couldn't win an Oscar, he was close enough. He immediately displayed a grand demeanor.
Without any hesitation, he spoke calmly, "It’s not about fate; meeting is merely a matter of chance. Moreover, this Sect has its own gains. As for accepting you, I am curious—if I were to make you a disciple or servant, would you be willing?"
After Lin Wunan pondered for a moment, Ye Kai raised his hand and with a thought, the Cloud Qi enveloped everyone and brought them directly to the Daoist temple on Jade Mountain. He then addressed the crowd around him, "You may disperse now."
Though everyone was eager to stay, since this prominent figure had spoken, they gradually left one by one, casting strange glances at Lin Wunan as they departed.
There was jealousy, envy, disappointment, and reflection among them.
Moments later, only Gongyang Zhenjun, She Yuanjun, Hu Qianfang, Lin Wunan, and Han Xiaoshan remained. Han Xiaoshan stood several meters in front of Ye Kai and bowed respectfully. "Master, am I finally going to have a junior brother?"
Ye Kai looked at the grinning Han Xiaoshan and paid no mind to his question. He jokingly scolded him, "This matter is for me to decide. But why are you out here instead of diligently cultivating in seclusion?"
"Master, even if I were to remain in seclusion, it would be difficult for me to improve much. My magical power has already been refined to its limit; I'm at least three times stronger than before."
Han Xiaoshan was unfazed by this. Knowing his master's temperament well, he secretly winked at the anxious Lin Wunan who stood there hesitantly. He subtly urged him to act quickly; opportunities like this were rare.
If his master had allowed him to come here, it indicated that there was some possibility for him.
If he couldn't seize this chance now, he would have no one else to blame.
As Lin Wunan's eyes lit up, Han Xiaoshan knew he understood the implication. With a quick glance, he immediately spoke up, "Brother, do you also wish to take my master as your teacher?"
Ye Kai nearly laughed out loud, feigning anger as he said, "You talk too much. If you keep this up, I’ll punish you by not allowing you to have dinner, sealing your own powers and making you copy the Taoist Scripture three hundred times."
He could clearly see the obvious actions of the two; however, he had already intended to accept Lin Wunan as a disciple. In just that brief moment, Lin Wunan had enough time to react. He blinked and took a few steps forward before kneeling down with a thud. "Senior, I humbly request that you accept me as your disciple."
Ye Kai shot a fierce glare at Han Xiaoshan before slowly nodding. "Fine. We are indeed fated to meet. You may be a registered disciple of this sect. When you condense your Nascent Soul, you can then become an inner disciple."
"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"
Although Lin Wunan felt a bit regretful for not becoming an official disciple, a registered disciple was still a disciple. He was confident that in fifty years he would be able to condense his Nascent Soul; at that time, it would be the same!
Thinking of this, his heart surged with warmth as he bowed deeply once more.
To join a powerful sect, he had already lost count of how many hardships he had endured. Now that he finally achieved his wish, he couldn't help but feel a mix of joy and sorrow. His mind rang with a loud sound, and he suddenly felt dazed.
He seemed to be in a state of confusion, unaware of anything around him or even what he wanted; it was an incredibly strange feeling that engulfed him completely.
At peace and leisurely.
While Lin Wunan was reveling in comfort, Ye Kai wore a half-smile expression, while the others present were left dumbfounded.
Especially Han Xiaoshan, who watched in disbelief as Lin Wunan's cultivation at the Heart-Moving Stage actually improved slightly after a moment.
When he regained his senses and looked again, Lin Wunan had reached the peak of the Heart-Moving Stage. The boundless Spiritual Energy above the altar seemed almost liquid as it instantly transformed into a vortex of Spiritual Energy over ten meters in diameter.
"Bang!"
After a faint muffled sound, the Golden Core barrier, which had caused many cultivators to despair, was silently breached.
In just a short time, Lin Wunan had unexpectedly advanced from a Heart-Moving Period Cultivator to the Golden Core Stage, and he was still surging forward.
Before long, not only had he stabilized at the Golden Core Stage, but he had also reached the mid-phase of the Golden Core.
Ye Kai was curious about how far this young man could go. He casually cast a Spell Formula, and a sacred beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping Lin Wunan within it. Drops of purified Spiritual Energy began to slowly coalesce around him.
Mid-phase of the Golden Core, peak mid-phase of the Golden Core, late phase of the Golden Core...
This speed not only made Gongyang Zhenjun, She Yuanjun, and Hu Qianfang—three Primordial Spirit True Monarchs—gasp in astonishment, but even Ye Kai felt his heart race.
What kind of prodigy had he taken under his wing?
At this rate, this young man's cultivation might soon surpass his own.
However, Lin Wunan did not stop. Just as he was on the verge of reaching the peak of the Golden Core Stage and only one step away from breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage, he finally came back to his senses. Blinking in confusion, he scratched his head and looked at everyone with a puzzled expression.
But in just a moment, his eyes widened in surprise. With a slight movement, he shot upward, his entire being radiating with flowing magical power as an overwhelming aura unfolded around him.
