Chapter 9: The Second Disciple, Ji Xuan

Shortly afterward,

A divine rainbow descended, and Jiang Chen appeared with Ji Xuan at the palace on Mount Fangcun.

Ji Xuan was somewhat excited,

In his view, he was about to have his constitution tested, and then reveal his invincible Tian Gang body!

After becoming a disciple, he planned to curry favor with this mysterious grandmaster, his future master, to expedite purchasing the "Chaos Scripture."

Indeed,

Ji Xuan's goal was to use his impressive feats to acquire the legendary Chaos Scripture!

Being well-read in various novels, he naturally knew that anything related to "chaos" in the world of fantasy was extremely precious and powerful,

And within the system store of flaunting feats, the price of the Chaos Scripture was a staggering nine nines!

Although it was a long journey,

Ji Xuan remained eager!

"Then, let's start earning those flaunting points from my future master... Haha."

Ji Xuan laughed wildly in his heart.

However,

The talent test he had anticipated did not occur; Jiang Chen seemed uninterested in his talents.

"Ji Xuan, is it? From today, you are my second disciple."

Jiang Chen said indifferently.

"Ah??"

Ji Xuan was dumbfounded and quickly asked, "Um, don't we need to test my talent? What about testing my character?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chen smiled enigmatically and replied lightly, "Your talent and character, I can see at a glance. The Tian Gang body is barely enough to meet the threshold for becoming my disciple. Normally, I wouldn't accept you, but in this remote land of a hundred nations, it's rare to encounter a Tian Gang body. You also have some fate with me."

Ji Xuan was shocked!

He hadn't expected Jiang Chen to directly recognize his constitution.

And,

A Tian Gang body, one in a hundred thousand, was just barely enough to become a disciple in the eyes of this grandmaster?!

How powerful was this mysterious master?

He had indeed hitched his wagon to a star!

[Ding, the host has been shockingly dumbfounded, deducting 3 flaunting points.]

"....."

Ji Xuan had no time to care about the system's notification.

Deduct away,

Being a disciple to such a powerful figure, wouldn't his cultivation soar rapidly?

Would he ever worry about not having enough flaunting points?

Ji Xuan quickly paid his respects, saying respectfully, "Disciple Ji Xuan greets the master."

"Hm, you will live on Mount Yi Ling."

Jiang Chen pointed to a distant peak, which then thunderously shifted, squeezing past other mountains at a rapid pace to arrive near Mount Fangcun, positioned after Mount Zhuo.

With a flick of his sword,

The words "Yi Ling Peak" appeared on a giant rock.

"Gulp—"

Ji Xuan swallowed hard, utterly astounded by Jiang Chen's display of power.

The mountain could actually be controlled to move!

And this sword's edge was incomparably sharp; just observing the inscription of "Yi Ling Peak" on a daily basis could potentially lead to the comprehension of an extraordinary sword technique.

Terrifying!

What kind of person was his affordable master?

A master of the Dao Foundation realm?

Or perhaps a legendary Grandmaster of the Heavenly Pill not even rumored to exist in the land of a hundred nations?

[Ding, the host has been shocked by another's strength, deducting 3 flaunting points.]

"....."

Ji Xuan had become numb.

Let the shocks and deductions come; in terms of cultivation and the ability to flaunt, he was far from matching even a fraction of his affordable master's prowess.

Looking at how the master flaunted,

By finding him a dwelling and displaying his power so effortlessly, moving mountains with ease, such flaunting was as natural as it was profound, a true return to the essence, worthy of a senior expert.

Ji Xuan was thoroughly convinced.

"Besides you, I have another disciple living on Mount Zhuo. Do not disturb him in the next few days."

Jiang Chen instructed.

Because Chen Fan had entered a mysterious and profound state, similar to an epiphany, his strength was improving rapidly, now having reached the pinnacle of the Innate realm.

Disturbances now would waste the opportunity of enlightenment.

"Yes, Master."

Ji Xuan glanced at Mount Zhuo, curious about what kind of talent the senior brother possessed to be so valued by the master, becoming the chief disciple.

In this era, the selection of a sect's chief disciple is much stricter than that of other direct disciples!

After all, the chief disciple represents the face of the sect, the primary lineage.

The chief disciple must be extraordinarily brilliant.

Thus, Ji Xuan was very curious about the talents of the senior brother on Mount Zhuo, but since the master had ordered not to disturb, he would not go; they were sect brothers, after all, and there would be opportunities to meet in the future.

"Additionally, I am assigning you a task. If completed excellently, I will teach you a lifetime's ultimate technique."

Jiang Chen said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan became excited.

A task meant an opportunity to flaunt! The ultimate technique was not important; what mattered was if he could exceed expectations in completing the task, wouldn't he shock the master and earn a huge amount of flaunting points?!

"The Tai Yi Sect is a new creation of mine, still in need of some menial disciples, outer disciples, and slightly talented inner disciples. Go make the name of Tai Yi Sect known, then recruit some disciples."

Jiang Chen stated.

The disciple section in the sect construction system had been activated, with individuals like Chen Fan and Ji Xuan being direct disciples of the sect leader. Besides them, there were also elder direct disciples, elite disciples, inner disciples, outer disciples, and menial disciples.

There was an urgent need to recruit disciples.

The reputation of the Tai Yi Sect also needed to be established.

Ji Xuan, with his flaunting system, was just the person for the job, as it would be somewhat demeaning for him, a Grandmaster of the Heavenly Pill realm, to handle such matters.

"Yes! I will take care of it immediately!"

Ji Xuan agreed excitedly.

Making a name, recruiting disciples?

This was a perfect opportunity to flaunt!

And more disciples meant more opportunities to flaunt. If the Tai Yi Sect had tens of thousands of disciples, wouldn't he, the sect leader's second disciple, earn countless flaunting points just by going out?

Ji Xuan fantasized about the Tai Yi Sect becoming the number one sect in the world, overwhelmingly excited. He didn't even visit his assigned Yi Ling Peak but went straight down the mountain to start his mission!
