Protagonist:
Shen Yao
Unlike the Sect Master image Shen Yao had imagined, Guiyuan Zhenjun was neither a white-haired, youthful-faced old man nor a young man dressed in white as snow, but a middle-aged man who looked kind and benevolent with an ordinary appearance.
Yes, it was exactly the kind of appearance that would not attract attention if thrown into a crowd.
However, Shen Yao also knew she should not judge a book by its cover, after all, his cultivation was profound, and he was a genuine Nascent Soul True Monarch.
"Lingyun Peak's Fu Hengyan greets the Sect Master."
"Lingyun Peak's Shen Yao greets the Sect Master."
Guiyuan Zhenjun looked at the two standing before him, smiling as he glanced at Luochen Zhenjun beside him.
Luochen Zhenjun snorted lightly, "I don't know why you insist on coming over.
Clearly already the Sect Master, busy as can be, yet you actually have the leisure to run to Lingyun Peak to join the fun."
Guiyuan Zhenjun still had a smiling expression, "Junior Martial Brother, I don't accept those words.
Besides, Cheng Qi brought his Dao Companion and children back; as his Senior Martial Brother, I must take a look no matter what."
Luochen Zhenjun rolled his eyes at this person, looking quite like an old child, "You only know how to say such pleasantries; you just want to see the two children."
Thinking he doesn't know? Hmph! He was no longer the foolish, easily tricked Luochen of old.
Guiyuan Zhenjun paid no mind to Luochen's arrogance; he waved his hand, signaling Fu Hengyan to bring Shen Yao forward a step.
"Sect Master Uncle, did you bring the instrument?" Fu Hengyan was more concerned with the two children's aptitude right now.
The two children, nearly one year old, could already leave their swaddling clothes most of the time to independently explore their surroundings.
The price of free movement was a high damage rate to room ornaments.
So most of the time, Fu Hengyan still needed to bind them with swaddling clothes.
"Brought it, brought it; even if he doesn't come, the instrument must come." Luochen Zhenjun interjected, and by the way took out from his storage bag a non-metallic object resembling a crystal ball, with a ruler standing upright on top.
Seeing this, Fu Hengyan was relieved and immediately handed the two children over to Guiyuan Zhenjun's arms.
Holding one in each hand, he felt the heavy weight in his arms.
Guiyuan Zhenjun nodded, "Already at Qi Refining Ninth Layer, spiritual power is growing very rapidly."
Cheng Qi, you two as a couple have raised the two children quite well."
Just by looking at their complexion, one could roughly tell, but before Guiyuan Zhenjun's side finished sighing, Luochen Zhenjun couldn't help urging the other to seize the time.
The big shots are all waiting to test spirit root purity, time is tight.
Guiyuan Zhenjun smiled good-naturedly, even though Luochen Zhenjun gave him no face.
Handing one of the children to Luochen Zhenjun, Luochen Zhenjun quickly placed the crystal ball in his hand above the child's head after receiving them.
A pillar of light shooting straight up instantly filled the entire bright white crystal ball.
Bright but not dazzling golden light climbed along the ruler object above the crystal ball without stopping, the higher it went, the more difficult it became.
Shen Yao nervously gripped Fu Hengyan's arm, even though the system had said before that the two children's spirit root purity was as high as nine point five.
But so much time had passed, she didn't know if there would be new changes later.
What if? What if the environment affected the two children's spirit root purity, what if the two children's spirit root purity was not nine point five?
All sorts of questions popped up in Shen Yao's mind; before Luochen Zhenjun announced the exact value, she kept thinking.
"Nine point six something, not reaching nine point seven."
Luochen Zhenjun's eyes widened, the spirited little old man became especially comical.
Hmm? It actually rose a bit?
Shen Yao turned her head to look at Fu Hengyan, Fu Hengyan also looked at Shen Yao, and the couple were shocked together.
Guiyuan Zhenjun, on the other hand, was already mentally prepared; he was only slightly stunned, and his expression returned to normal.
Reaching out to take the instrument from Luochen Zhenjun's hand, Guiyuan Zhenjun aimed it at the child in his arms.
Exactly the same light, exactly the same pillar of light, and the final result was also exactly the same as the previous one.
"Not bad, not bad."
Saying "not bad" twice, Guiyuan Zhenjun handed the child in his arms to Shen Yao, turned around, and pulled Luochen Zhenjun away.
When leaving, he didn't forget to leave them a voice transmission to take the children back first.
Shen Yao:...
"Cheng Qi, Sect Master Uncle is this" satisfied or dissatisfied? It doesn't look as excited as Senior Martial Brother Luochen, but the person left in a hurry.
Could it be that Xuan'er and Yu'er's aptitude doesn't count as top-tier in the Cultivation World? It shouldn't be.
Shen Yao certainly hadn't forgotten the system's various crazy performances in her mind.
Highlighting one word, happy!
Being able to make the system so out of proportion, Xuan'er and Yu'er's starting point should be very high.
"Don't think so much; Sect Master Uncle is most likely discussing the choice of master for Xuan'er and Yu'er alone with Master."
Fu Hengyan took a deep breath, trying his best to calm himself to explain to Shen Yao.
Sometimes, the excitement shown is not the real excitement.
There are many people who are best at responding to all changes by remaining unchanged.
Sect Master Uncle handles countless affairs of the Tianjian Sect, among which major matters are innumerable.
Xuan'er and Yu'er's spirit root aptitude can only be considered a small matter to Sect Master Uncle.
Soothing Shen Yao, who was somewhat confused about the situation, Fu Hengyan took the mother and two children down from the mountain top, first returning to the small courtyard to wait for news.
And the Guiyuan True Monarch, who was held in high regard by Fu Hengyan, at this moment pulled the Luochen True Monarch to appear before the Luochen True Monarch's master, who was also the Guangling Zunzhe.
In fact, Fu Hengyan's thinking was still too conservative.
Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu's spirit root quality, placed before the Guiyuan True Monarch who had seen great storms, was still an existence that could shake the Guiyuan True Monarch's worldview.
This is the legendary Heavenly Grade Spirit Root with a spirit root purity rarely seen!
"Uncle Master, Shi Jiu rashly disturbs you, only for this one matter, please Uncle Master leave the mountain to assist."
The Guiyuan True Monarch was crisp and neat, directly finding a Spirit Transformation ancestor as master for Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu.
Not caring whether the generation was right or not; if not for the Guiyuan True Monarch's master having exhausted his lifespan early on, he would have pulled these two children into their lineage no matter what he said.
What a pity, what a pity, the Guiyuan True Monarch sighed in his heart; he himself was not a Metal Spirit Root, nor was he a pure Sword Cultivator, unable to give any guidance to these two natural Sword Cultivator seedlings.
The Guangling Zunzhe had not left the mountain for a hundred years; usually he was either in closed-door cultivation or in closed-door cultivation.
Suddenly seeing juniors come to visit, he still couldn't quite react.
Still, it was the Luochen True Monarch who, on the way, understood the Guiyuan True Monarch's plan, and with a face full of respect simply recounted Fu Hengyan and Shen Yao and the two children they gave birth to.
The Guangling Zunzhe, having listened to the whole process: ……
"When the two children reach three years old, send them to this Venerable One; this Venerable One will personally teach them."
Such monstrous talent and capability, they ought to be this Guangling Zunzhe's disciples.
Lifting his head to glance at the Luochen True Monarch who looked like a little old man, the Guangling Zunzhe shook his head, "Some things are in the bones not in the appearance; Luochen, your conduct is still too stubborn."
What's the point of maintaining a little old man's image; can that really penetrate your own state of mind? Rather than so, better to conceal all cultivation and go walk a trip in the mortal world.
The Luochen True Monarch, named by his own master, frowned and his face turned bitter, instantly making the Guangling Zunzhe lose interest in speaking.
Tsk, this disciple he accepted just has this ability to make him feel stifled.
"Go on; this Venerable One still needs to continue closed-door cultivation to comprehend; if there's anything, wait until two years later to speak."
As soon as the words fell, the Luochen True Monarch and the Guiyuan True Monarch were chased out of the cave by the Guangling Zunzhe.
The two stood at the bare cave entrance, lifted their heads to glance at the surrounding environment, and with tacit understanding parted ways.
As for Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu's teaching matter, that naturally fell to the Luochen True Monarch to arrange.
Just like that, not long after returning to the small courtyard, Shen Yao received the matter that the two children would soon have a Spirit Transformation ancestor as master.
Shen Yao: …… Didn't expect ah, so this is the cultivation life with a cheat? Simply from birth they walked toward a life peak ordinary people can hardly reach.
Lowering her head, looking at the two sons lying on the wooden bed stretching their hands everywhere touching and bumping.
To prevent them from knocking the wooden bed apart, Shen Yao and Fu Hengyan had also carved a circle of defensive array around the wooden bed.
Although doing so had little effect, for Zhao Shichao it also counted as saving some time.
Otherwise he would always have to send new wooden beds to Fu Hengyan here every three or five times; even if Zhao Shichao only needed to open his mouth, he would still feel annoyed.
"Wa o o o wa wa wa"
"O o wa wa ya ya ya"
The two children spoke baby talk Shen Yao couldn't understand, expressions very serious.
Following that, threads of golden spiritual power floated out from between the two children's fingers, like dots of stars falling in all directions of the wooden bed, ding ding dang dang, emitting a sound similar to metal and stone colliding.
Sigh, here it comes again.
Single hand covering her cheek, Shen Yao pinched the jade tablet in her hand, extremely familiarly circling the room from inside to out entirely; Shen Yao turned around to go find Fu Hengyan.
Unexpectedly, next comes the children's favorite house-dismantling segment; she is merely a player who just reached Great Perfection of Qi Refining, simply unable to cope.
Who could have thought, diligently cultivating for fourteen years, still not as strong as two children not yet one year old; truly a full ten points of heart-piercing.
Two years' time to cultivators is but a snap of the fingers.
Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu, the two children, also changed from toddlers who couldn't walk and could only speak baby talk into little chatterboxes who crawled up and ran down.
They are truly chatterboxes; mouths open and never closed, unless they need to cultivate or rest.
"Mother, Mother, Xuan'er wants to go find Senior Martial Brother, Xuan'er wants to go……"
"Yu'er same as older brother, go find Senior Martial Brother, go practice sword cultivation."
Shen Yao put down the jade slip in her hand, without lifting her head shook her head at the two children, "Today won't do; you still have to pay respects to Master."
The date set by the Guangling Zunzhe has arrived; today leaving seclusion is the time for master-disciple meeting.
Shen Yao beckoned to Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu, called Bai Wei and Bai Mei, changed the two little ones into a set of cyan-blue long robes.
On the clothes there are relevant arrays; they can be used even without activation.
The two little ones grew handsome and cute, cheeks chubby still carrying baby fat; "Mother, when will we be able to see Master?"
Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu lifted their heads in unison to look at Shen Yao beside them; the Foundation Establishment stage aura belonging to them pressed on Shen Yao until she could hardly catch her breath.
Shen Yao's heart was bitter yet sweet; truly surprise upon surprise.
Who could have thought that at merely three years old this year, Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu already possessed Foundation Establishment cultivation.
Even when these two broke through there were no omens or warnings at all.
Still it was Fu Hengyan who noticed something was wrong, invited Master Luochen True Monarch over, only then learned the two children were in the midst of breakthrough.
It was that kind of sudden enlightenment advancement; only other people through this behavior raise state of mind and part of cultivation, while Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu simply and directly stepped from Qi Refining into Foundation Establishment.
"Noon Initial"
Fu Hengyan's voice came from before Shen Yao; Fu Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu in unison turned their heads and called out Father.
"You two, restrain your aura a bit; how is the Concealment Art practiced?"
Fu Hengyan walked to Shen Yao's side and sat down, gaze slightly serious looking at the two children.
Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu nodded and shook their heads, simultaneously casting the Concealment Art.
Just saw the Foundation Establishment aura on their bodies drop, finally maintained at Qi Refining Sixth Layer.
Of course Qi Refining Sixth Layer is also not very stable; as long as these two children move hands and feet, it's the literal meaning — walking or waving hands — their cultivation would suddenly rise a bit.
Shen Yao: ……
"Cheng Qi, isn't the progress a bit too slow?" After all, these two children were monsters who could break through from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment after a single nap.
Nowadays, learning a Concealment Art still takes several months, and they still can't control it... Shen Yao had some suspicions, worrying that her own son might be the kind who looks clever but is actually ordinary.
Ai yo wei
This is simply more anxious than the chicken-babying of modern society; cultivation isn't studying.
If you don't study well, you can still spend energy on tutoring, but if cultivation doesn't work, then it doesn't work.
Fu Hengyan patted Shen Yao's shoulder to soothe her, "No, the two of them, their progress is already very fast."
The Concealment Art itself is a magic technique that can only be practiced above Foundation Establishment.
Fu Zexuan and Fu Zexuan don't recognize many characters, and often can't control their tempers; being able to use the Concealment Art in a few months is already genius.
Cultivators practicing the Concealment Art isn't about how long the Concealment Art can be maintained, but about how much cultivation realm the Concealment Art can cover.
After all, this Dao Art was created to hide one's own strength.
Patiently telling Shen Yao these judgment rules, Fu Hengyan led Fu Zexuan and Fu Zexuan to the next room.
The two children were too noisy; Shen Yao found it tiring to take them out, and it was all Fu Hengyan taking care of them.
Now there was still one hour until Noon Initial; Fu Hengyan planned to first burn off some of the two's energy, and also leave a good impression on Guangling Zunzhe.
Despite this kind of impression, it wouldn't last long before shattering.
Fu Hengyan had a bit of a headache; even though he was the father of the two children and came with various family affection filters, he still couldn't go against his conscience to say the two children were cute, obedient, and well-behaved.
"Father," "Father"
Fu Zexuan and Fu Zexuan were like little ducklings; wherever they went, they had to find their parents.
Fu Hengyan paused in tone, had them take out the Yimu Long Swords prepared earlier, and practice swordsmanship facing each other.
"No need to use your own cultivation realm, and cannot exceed the spiritual power of the Qi Refining Stage."
"Xuan'er, Yu'er, Father is right here watching you; you two make your move."
In order to let Fu Zexuan and Fu Zeyu adapt to their own spiritual power absorption skills as soon as possible, Fu Hengyan could only practice with them over and over again.
There was no way; if the two of them couldn't learn to control it, when sparring with peers of the same stage in the future, unavoidable casualties would occur.
After all, they had to integrate into collective life; Fu Hengyan had to plan for them early.
