Chapter 351: Is the salary gap so big?
The burly elder couldn't help but roll his eyes, his tone a bit exaggerated: "Yun Chen, you ask this like you've never seen the world! If your innate Dao body isn't powerful, how could you possibly trigger a thousand-year-old phenomenon like the Seven-Colored Divine Lotus?"
The white-haired elder stroked his beard and patiently explained, "Those with an innate Dao body are born with the ability to resonate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. She might be able to achieve a realm that others would need ten years of hard work to break through in just one year."
"What's even more rare is that this body's ability to comprehend the laws of nature far surpasses that of ordinary people. For example, the core thunder-related skills of my Divine Thunder Palace would take ordinary disciples several years to comprehend, but she could master it in just a few months."
Elder Liu also added: "Not only that, the Xiantian Dao Body can reduce the loss of spiritual energy when refining pills and tools, and the success rate is more than 30% higher than that of ordinary alchemists."
Yun Chen was stunned when he heard this. He turned to look at Zhao Xiruo, his eyes full of surprise.
He only knew that Zhao Xiruo was a fast cultivator, but he didn't expect that he was so powerful.
Lei Miaoyun pursed her lips, looked at Yun Chen in silence for a while, and then said, "There is another advantage of the Xiantian Dao Questions, which is... you don't need to go through the thunder tribulation before the tribulation period."
When Yun Chen heard this, he almost cursed.
Is this innate Taoist body really so heaven-defying?
Is there any justice in the world?
You know, when I experienced the nine-fold thunder tribulation, I almost died.
"There's no point in being envious. This is a special treatment bestowed by Heaven."
Lei Miaoyun glanced at Yun Chen, who was looking shocked, and said with a hint of ridicule, "But you, your talent is too incredible... Every time you break through a major realm, you will experience a thunder tribulation, and each time it is more powerful than the last... If there is no one to protect you, you might die one of them."
Yun Chen: ...
"Girl, are you willing to become my teacher?"
As he spoke, Lei Miaoyun looked at Zhao Xiruo again, with a questioning tone in his voice.
You have to know that Yun Chen was forced to become a disciple. The gap is too big.
Zhao Xiruo frowned and looked at Yun Chen, then thought for a moment and nodded, "I do."
Anyway, Yun Chen has become my disciple, so it’s nice to be with Yun Chen.
"Great!"
Lei Miaoyun's face immediately showed joy when he heard this.
"Then senior...regarding Ruoruo's qualifying competition..." Yun Chen asked at the right time.
"What qualifying competition? She doesn't have to participate."
Upon hearing this, Lei Miaoyun walked forward, took Zhao Xiruo's hand, and said lovingly, "If you get hurt, your teacher will be heartbroken."
Yun Chen: ? ?
Mudd!
Women change their expressions so quickly.
"However, you still have to participate, and you must win first place for me, otherwise I won't do what I promised you."
Yun Chen's mouth twitched, and he complained about this double-standard treatment eight hundred times in his heart.
So the innate Taoist body is the apple of his eye, and he is just a tool to boost sales?
But since he was under someone's roof, he could only bite the bullet and reply, "I understand, Master."
Lei Miaoyun nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Zhao Xiruo and said softly, "For the next few days, you should stay in the bedroom to consolidate your realm. I'll have someone send you the introductory chapter of the Divine Thunder Sutra so you can familiarize yourself with the methods of circulating spiritual energy. If you need anything, feel free to come to the Sect Leader's Hall to find me."
"Ok!"
Zhao Xiruo nodded obediently, glanced at Yun Chen who looked depressed, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she tried hard not to laugh.
"Come on, I almost forgot about this."
As Lei Miaoyun spoke, he took out a crystal-white jade pendant from his storage ring. The pendant was engraved with a lifelike thunder lotus, and a faint spiritual energy lingered around it.
She handed the jade pendant to Zhao Xiruo and said softly, "This is the Thunder Lotus Heart Protective Jade. It can automatically resist three attacks from cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage. It can also warm your meridians and help consolidate your cultivation."
Zhao Xiruo took the jade pendant with both hands. It was warm to the touch, and a warm current instantly spread throughout her body. She quickly bowed and thanked him, "Thank you, Master!"
"My own disciple, why are you being so polite?"
Lei Miaoyun smiled and waved his hand, then turned to the elders behind him and said, "Don't just stand there. As an elder, this is your first time meeting my junior apprentice-nephew, so you should at least show some respect, right?"
"Old Lei!"
Lei Miaoyun looked at the burly elder next to him and narrowed his eyes.
The corners of Lao Lei's mouth twitched slightly, and he was secretly complaining in his heart.
So you want us to bleed even if you accept us as your apprentice?
But he still smiled and said, "Of course there is."
As he spoke, he pulled out a thread-bound ancient book from his pocket and said, "This is the complete manual of the Thunder Palm, a technique I was most proud of when I was young. It's powerful and domineering, and perfect for self-defense. Take it!"
"This is Elder Lei, also known as Lei Tong. Thank you, Elder Lei."
Lei Miaoyun introduced her to Zhao Xiruo with a smile.
Zhao Xiruo nodded obediently: "Thank you, Elder Lei."
"You're welcome. If your master bullies you in the future, feel free to come find me..."
Elder Lei looked at the well-behaved and sensible Zhao Xiruo, his tone full of appreciation.
But before he could finish, Lei Miaoyun interrupted him: "Don't worry, I won't bully my precious disciple... But you, don't think about taking advantage of my precious disciple."
Elder Lei: ...
"Haha...! It's my turn." The white-haired elder, unwilling to be left behind, took out a white jade medicine bottle and said, "Junior niece, these contain three mind-concentrating pills. They will help you comprehend the realm of the technique more quickly and will be useful when you need to break through bottlenecks."
"This is Elder Ouyang. He is responsible for the allocation of resources to the sect's disciples. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to contact him." Lei Miaoyun introduced.
Zhao Xiruo took it and nodded politely: "Thank you, Elder Ouyang."
At this time, Elder Liu also came out.
He took out a set of exquisite alchemy tools and said with a smile, "Junior niece, you can just call me Elder Liu. I'm in charge of the sect's alchemy. If you're interested in alchemy, you can use this 'Liuyun Alchemy Furnace'. It's made of thousand-year-old cold jade, which allows for more stable fire control and increases the success rate of alchemy. If you need any elixirs, feel free to contact me."
"Thank you, Elder Liu." Zhao Xiruo nodded awkwardly.
Seeing this, several other elders also took out gifts, including rare spiritual herbs, sharp magic tools, and notes recording their experiences in cultivation. Soon, a small pile was formed.
Zhao Xiruo looked at the gift in front of her, feeling a little overwhelmed for a moment. She could only keep thanking him: "Thank you, elders!"
Yun Chen, who was standing aside, watched this scene and fell into deep self-doubt.
What the hell is this operation?
Why don't I have it?
I am also the master’s last disciple?
Lei Miaoyun seemed to sense his emotions and turned around to glare at him: "Don't be sour here, kid. If you can't get first place in the qualifying round, not only will I not help you, I won't let you go either."
Yun Chen: “…”
He should just be a tool.
After introducing the elders, Lei Miaoyun gave Zhao Xiruo some instructions on how to practice before leaving with the elders.
