Chapter 38: Promoted to inner disciple, she can’t get out of this head
Information registered and received a new identity. Wu Ping followed the guidance of the
inner disciple token and arrived at the inner disciple’s residence. After selecting a house at
random, he hurriedly entered.
“They all say that the treatment of inner disciples is significantly better than that of outer
disciples, but I didn’t expect the difference to be so pronounced!”
Looking at the twenty-five spirit stones in the storage bag, Wu Ping smiled broadly. The sect
gave twenty spirit stones to the Inner Sect disciples, and the remaining five were rewards for
tasks from the Deng family. Additionally, he acquired ten spirit stones from Wu Kongsheng.
Wu Ping possessed thirty-five spirit stones, solving his immediate needs. The lack of spirit
stones was considerable, especially with the magic tree being a seemingly insatiable entity!
Comparatively, using these spirit stones personally seemed less efficient than utilising the
magic tree. After all, the tree’s strength mirrored his own. Moreover, the concentration of
aura in the inner disciples’ area exceeded that of Wu Ping’s previous residence.
Inner disciples also had access to elective courses provided by elders. These could be
attended by contributing spirit stones, a treatment that Wu Ping found astonishing. However,
he wasn’t inclined to attend these lectures. His spirit stones were precious, and he didn’t
possess many contribution points.
He contemplated saving them for the black market to exchange them for more spirit stones.
Why spend them on lectures?
Wu Ping’s qualifications were decent, having consumed numerous zombie crystal nuclei,
giving him self-sufficiency. While the elders possessed more knowledge, it was temporary
compared to his experience.
Closing doors and windows, Wu Ping flashed back to the doomsday world.
It had been seven or eight days since Wu Ping last visited the Doomsday world. The magic
tree was no longer a sapling, having grown into a small tree five or six meters tall with two
bifurcations. The once dim golden leaf now radiated a strong golden light, enhancing the
atmosphere around the tree.
Wu Ping even noticed the magic tree beginning to sprout a second golden leaf. This puzzled
him: “How did this golden leaf form? Is it because of the zombies?”
Wu Ping couldn’t figure it out immediately, so he addressed it later. With many things on his
plate, he tossed all 35 spirit stones at the magic tree. The tree joyfully raised its roots to catch
the spirit stones, expressing delight.
Wu Ping’s cultivation realm began progressing rapidly as the magic tree absorbed the aura
from the spirit stones. After patting the tree trunk, Wu Ping said, “Grow well, eat more. I’ll
find a way for more spirit stones.”
The magic tree shook in response. Wu Ping flushed away, returning to the Immortal
Cultivation Realm.
Due to the time flow rate differences between the two worlds, Wu Ping’s cultivation base
advanced quickly. In a short time, he broke through the first realm of the Ascended Soul and
ascended directly to the third realm.
The magic tree sent a hungry message again, and Wu Ping scratched his head. “It’s really
greedy, and the time flow rate difference is astounding. Thirty-five spirit stones could sustain
it in the doomsday world for at least ten hours, but it won’t last an hour here!”
“Ah, well! Prioritise practising the exercises first. I’ll figure out how to get more spirit stones
when I become stronger!”
Wu Ping felt like he had been working part-time his entire life. Despite this, the exhilaration
from his skyrocketing cultivation was undeniable. He only achieved the soul’s ascension
yesterday, and today, he’s already at the triple ascension of the soul. Remove the cheats and
unlock them.
[Fire Demon True Body: Those refining this method need a robust physical body, tempering
it with earth fire and merging fire poison and aura…]
Wu Ping couldn’t help but sigh, “This is the best profound-level physical training method.”
He appreciated this gift greatly. Wu Ping was one to remember both the wrongs and kindness
of others. Previously, he had contemplated ways to enhance his physical body, and now, with
his body stronger than his cultivation base, it seemed wasteful not to utilise it.
Before actively seeking such a skill, he unexpectedly obtained it. Wu Ping noted down his
gratitude to Lin Wanli.
There were five repairable levels regarding the Fire Demon True Body: igniting fire into the
body, tempering the body with fire poison, Demon Flame Golden Bell, Fire Demon Hell, and
Fire Demon True Body. Upon reaching the final level, one could even transform into a fire
demon and pass through flames.
Boxing to the flesh was a man’s romance. Wu Ping mused, “Isn’t this another form of
Gundam? Transform. I’m excited just thinking about it.”
But time waited for no one. Considering the many tasks ahead, Wu Ping didn’t want to waste
any time. He immediately took Lin Wanli’s token and headed towards Houshan.
Meanwhile, at Elder Qin’s residence, Xuexuan took the pill but remained pale with a
collapsed fist mark on her chest. Even a gentle breath caused her pain. The thought of Wu
Ping intensified her resentment.
“You’re injured, don’t be angry,” said Elder Qin, her master, with a delicate appearance
despite the elder title.
“Master, the disciples really can’t swallow this humiliation!” Xuexuan expressed her hatred,
despising Wu Ping for his unyielding attitude and lack of mercy.
Elder Qin understood her disciple well. “You gained fame early, crowned as a genius, and
haven’t faced failures. This can be a learning experience for your growth.”
“But Master, haven’t you experienced failure too? Why do you want me to experience it!”
Xuexuan angrily spat blood.
Elder Qin comforted her with a pill, “Okay, okay. The master will handle this matter for you.
Just take the medicine and focus on practice. I will teach you a secret method. When your
cultivation grows, you can seek revenge.”
“Since he has a strong physique, I’ll give you a magic weapon to break through it.”
“Master, my dear master, how long until the disciple reclaims her honour? It’s been too long
for the disciple to wait.”
Elder Qin was helpless and replied, “Then what do you want? Can an elder like me intervene
for you?”
“Why can’t you? Please help me, Master, you are the best.”
A figure silently appeared as they spoke, holding a sword and stating, “She won’t escape this
fate.”
