Yun Shu chuckled softly, then quickly suppressed it, "Just for a face?"
Ming Zhijian nodded, "Just for a face."
"Follow this immortal."
Yun Shu led Ming Zhijian into the Six Profound Hall and arranged living quarters for him. "You can move in here from now on."
Ming Zhijian surveyed the surroundings, the place was ten times larger than where he was currently living. "Live with you, Master? That doesn't seem right."
Yun Shu said, "I like it very much. From now on, you can come and go freely in this Six Profound Hall."
As she spoke, she distributed the cultivation resources for a direct disciple to Ming Zhijian. "This is your cultivation resource for this month."
Ming Zhijian accepted, "Thank you, Master."
Yun Shu was about to leave, but Ming Zhijian called out, "Master..."
Yun Shu turned back, "Is there anything else?"
Ming Zhijian said, "So, we will be spending our days together in the Six Profound Hall from now on? That doesn't seem right, does it?"
Yun Shu said, "An immortal does not adhere to trivial matters. Why do you still care about such formalities?"
Ming Zhijian nodded, "Master is right."
Yun Shu continued, "Furthermore, your two senior sisters are currently traveling and are expected to return soon. They will be back by the time of the Eight Profound Tournament at the latest."
Ming Zhijian was taken aback. "I have two senior sisters? Wait, what is the Eight Profound Tournament?"
Yun Shu had already vanished.
Returning to his room, he opened his cultivation resources. Ninety Sacred Heart Pills to enhance cultivation. Ninety Spirit Nurturing Pills to stabilize cultivation. Twenty Supreme Immortal Sea Pills to nourish the spiritual sea. And twenty bags of orange Profound Crystal Stones.
Ming Zhijian smiled faintly, "Although it's not enough to even fill my teeth, overall, this Sky Profound Sect is quite generous."
Saying so, he scooped up handfuls of pills and stuffed them into his mouth like popcorn, starting with the Sacred Heart Pills, then the Spirit Nurturing Pills. With his powerful spiritual sea and the separation of his Thousand Dust Divine Body, he could currently digest a large quantity of thousand-grade pills simultaneously.
The next day...
Ming Zhijian had advanced to the sixty-first level of the Divine Emperor realm! The Blood Demon had broken through to the perfected Floating Void realm, third heaven!
"Knock, knock, knock..."
Ming Zhijian opened the door. It was Si Yu, carrying a thick stack of ancient books that covered half of her body. She then put them down.
"Master said that you can learn any of the cultivation techniques and secret manuals here if you like. If there's anything you don't fancy, or if you believe your own techniques are superior, you don't have to learn them. She won't force you."
Ming Zhijian nodded, "Alright, Senior Sister. Please convey my thanks to Master."
Si Yu said, "Master has rarely been this kind to anyone in thousands of years. You are the first in history."
Ming Zhijian was slightly stunned. "Really?"
Si Yu rolled her eyes at him, "Do you think I'd lie to you?"
"Thank you." Ming Zhijian watched her leave.
He opened the cultivation manuals. They were all Divine Tribulation level techniques. This Xuan Master Yun Shu was indeed generous. There was the Concealing Spirit Rakshasa Art, Thousand Hand Floating Sword, Myriad Laws Floating Life Like a Dream, God Slaying Art, Spirit Condensing Rising Dragon Annihilation, Stepping Void Divine Shadow Divine Leg... and so on.
Ming Zhijian closed them and put them down. Compared to his No Sword Art, Northern Desert Longevity Art, Divine An Longevity Art, and Startled Swan Sword, these techniques were far inferior.
Ming Zhijian walked out of the Six Profound Gate. Indeed, although he lived with Yun Shu every day, he had never seen her in person.
He was now a direct disciple of the Six Profound Gate. Changing into his identity attire, he left the Six Profound.
...
An outer sect disciple came to report to Hu Shang, "Ming Zhijian has finally come out of the Six Profound Gate!"
Hu Shang said, "Kill him."
The outer sect disciple stammered, "But his current identity is a direct disciple of the Six Profound. We dare not act."
