Chapter 398

On Xingfeng, Fang Yu was confirmed as the Sacred Son of Weitaixuan Sect.

This decision was made by the Xuanmenzhang Sect, and all other peak lords agreed.

Internally, Fang Yu decisively defeated Hua Yunfei, the second-ranked young genius on Xingfeng—truly a genius among geniuses, with formidable strength.

Externally, in the Eastern Wilderness, Ji Family's Divine Body has emerged, sweeping aside all young geniuses of the region; if Weitaixuan Sect lacks a talent to counter him, its status will plummet over the next hundred or thousand years.

At this moment, Zhuofeng has produced a senior brother—his strength is overwhelming, his Wind and Thunder magic terrifyingly potent; clearly a man of great fortune. As long as the Xuanmenzhang Sect and the peak lords are not foolish enough to drive away a peerless genius, they will all name Fang Yu as Weitaixuan Sect's Sacred Son and nurture him well.

Fang Yu now truly receives Weitaixuan Sect's cultivation support, receiving yuan each month.

Yes, yuan.

In Weitaixuan Sect, the Sacred Son's status grants access to yuan.

Yuan, as ancient texts record, was formed in the age when heaven and earth merged qi to give birth to all things—when plants thrived, living beings were powerful, spiritual herbs endless, and vast amounts of life essence sealed within crystal-clear stones resembling amber; for cultivators, this is extremely important, for refining yuan greatly accelerates their cultivation.

This peculiar substance contains boundless life essence, ideal for cultivators opening their Bitter Sea or elevating their realm—a tiny amount of yuan rivals a thousand bottles of Baicao Liquid.

One can imagine how precious yuan is.

Weitaixuan Sect's wealth and power were thus revealed.

In the past, when Fang Yu was in Lingxu Cave Heaven, yuan was a myth, and Baicao Liquid was only issued a few bottles per month.

Now, it is truly unlike the past.

As Weitaixuan Sect's Sacred Son, Fang Yu now has yuan to cultivate with.

Yet for Fang Yu, who cultivates the Eternal Life Method, yuan's effect on him is not great.

But the Sacred Son has other benefits, such as access to Weitaixuan Sect's sacred scripture library to study Dao techniques and Shentongfa.

Weitaixuan Sect has one hundred and eight main peaks, each with different inheritance methods; yet in the sect's sacred scripture library, countless Weitaixuan Sect cultivation techniques are recorded. Ordinary disciples may enter only after making great contributions, receiving one Shentongfa Sect; for the Sacred Son, all Shentongfa Sects here are fully open.

Thus, Fang Yu ignored worldly affairs and entered Weitaixuan Sect's sacred scripture library, comprehending and cultivating the sect's Dao techniques and Shentongfa.

At this moment, atop Xingfeng, the Xuanmenzhang Sect stood on the peak's summit, beside him stood Li Ruoyu, lord of Zhuofeng.

"Younger brother, by naming Fang Yu Sacred Son without investigating his origins, we seem rather hasty."

The Xuanmenzhang Sect's gaze was deep; he could sense clearly many things within the scripture library.

"Senior brother, I do not think this decision is hasty."

Li Ruoyu stood atop Xingfeng, unassuming and invisible, his entire figure blending into Xingfeng as if he were part of the peak itself—he was the peak, the peak was he, utterly natural, one with the mountain.

"Fang Yu is my disciple, yet his genius surpasses my imagination, his fortune surpasses my imagination, and the strength of his Shentongfa is exceedingly rare. When I discussed Dao with him, I gained even greater benefits. Treating him well now is a bond—we gain nothing but good from it."

"But…"

The Xuanmenzhang Sect was about to speak.

"His heart may not truly belong here, yet it has paused here for a moment. We give him beautiful years—his heart will linger longer. We seem to give him hope; perhaps in future years, he will give us hope."

Li Ruoyu spoke, his voice gentle yet profound, cutting off the sect leader's words. "Hua Yunfei is indeed excellent, but having another Fang Yu in Weitaixuan Sect is no harm."

"Younger brother… you speak wisely. I hope it truly is so."

The Xuanmenzhang Sect finally nodded again, his gaze fixed on Li Ruoyu beside him—this younger brother had once been mediocre, but after receiving Zhuofeng's inheritance, he rose late yet powerfully; now standing beside him, he radiated an uncanny aura of perfect harmony with heaven and earth.

If he continues cultivating this way, Li Ruoyu may truly reach the Elder Supreme realm, becoming a great one among greats.

This is a great good thing.

The people he values are unlikely to be wrong.

Meanwhile, as the outside world buzzed with turmoil, Fang Yu acquired many Shentongfa from Weitaixuan Sect's scripture library.

Regarding his appointment as Sacred Son, Fang Yu still found it strange—he had never imagined he would one day become Weitaixuan Sect's Sacred Son, yet now that he was, those techniques had become easily within his grasp.

"Xingfeng Shentongfa."

Fang Yu's gaze fell upon the jade tablet before him, which recorded Xingfeng's Shentongfa: to cultivate the Star Method, one must first use the spirit to meditate, perceive the stars, then absorb their power and refine them into one's own celestial star.

Many disciples on Xingfeng are prodigies; after years of cultivation, they often perceive one star and make it their celestial star.

Those with even greater talent can perceive more than one star—then their strength surpasses others, especially Hua Yunfei, ranked second on Xingfeng, who perceived seven stars—the Big Dipper—truly a rarity.

In past ages, some on Xingfeng perceived peculiar stars, such as the Ziwei Star; those cultivators have long since attained great status on Xingfeng and now meditate in seclusion.

Ziwei Star, Taiyin Star, Taiyang Star—all are peculiar stars; if one can resonate with them, cultivation may reach extraordinarily profound realms.

"Zhongxing Wuji Book."

Fang Yu activated the Zhongxing Wuji Book; from his crown flew a book of starlight, dense with radiant stars, and as he stirred it, countless star energies from heaven and earth responded, descending in unison.
