Witch, please have some self-respect!

Shen Yun turned around and saw two burly young men dressed in outer sect disciple robes.

"You are the wind and thunder, the wind power!"

The two were dressed in outer sect disciple robes, a stark contrast to their previous appearances, and Shen Yun greeted them uncertainly.

"yes."

The two still had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but they had lost the naivety they had when they first met.

His already broad shoulders and thick back made him even more imposing, like a black bear standing upright, exuding a menacing aura.

This is the aura unique to those who roam the wilderness and hunt savage beasts.

The three met and felt a sense of familiarity, as if they were old friends in a foreign land, which naturally brought a sense of warmth.

Shen Yun sensed the aura emanating from the two individuals and, just as Feng Baixuan had said before, they had already reached the mid-stage of the Body Nourishing Realm.

"Uncle Shen, what brings you here? Did something happen?"

Compared to wind and thunder, wind power is more straightforward.

"I might join the Holy Sect in the future, so I hope my two senior brothers will take good care of me."

Shen Yun didn't hide anything, and spoke with a smile, making a gesture of clasping his hands in greeting.

Within the Holy Sect, strength comes first; whoever is stronger is the senior brother or sister, regardless of age.

"ah....?"

Both of them wore expressions of disbelief.

He was admitted to the Holy Ancestor.

How could Shen Yun, with his white beard and white hair, enter the Holy Sect?

So what if they knelt for a whole day and night, and the grandfather begged for most of the day, only to beg the young lady to let him enter the Holy Sect through the back door?

Or is it that the young lady is treating Shen Yun so well?

"Senior Brother Shen, this is your waist tag."

Just then, the short-haired disciple came out with a waist token. As long as Shen Yun left his aura on it, he would have succeeded.

"I am only in the early stage of body cultivation, and I am not worthy of being called senior brother."

Shen Yun took the waist token and quickly said...

"Senior brother, there's no need to be modest. All of us should follow the example of the senior brother who has achieved the perfection of body cultivation in our auxiliary cultivation."

"It seems that the recent news in the Heavenly Crafts Mansion about a sixty-year-old who has reached the next level of auxiliary cultivation is you, sir."

The disciples who received Shen Yun were quite polite to him.

He might not treat others with such courtesy, but no one would dare to act arrogantly towards an elderly man in his sixties.

Feng Lei and Feng Dian, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed at Shen Yun in astonishment.

Advanced minor course!

Is the person rumored to have reached the rank of immortal in his sixties actually Shen Yun?

Shocked, the two thought to themselves at the same time.

"It's likely that this Steward Shen had already come into contact with the Dao of Talismans long before he came to the Holy City!"

No wonder the young lady brought this Steward Shen into the sect; now I understand.

I've already started imagining it.

"I only achieved something in my sixties, having wasted my life. Please forgive my foolishness."

Shen Yun said modestly, but suddenly realized that the disciple who was receiving them seemed to be no ordinary person.

You can tell by looking at the wind turbines and wind power plants next to them, which are bowing their heads and not daring to breathe.

"Great talents mature late, and I like making friends with people like my senior who have perseverance."

After exchanging a few polite words, the short-haired disciple returned home.

He instructed Shen Yun to go to the Inner Affairs Hall next.

To receive the outer disciple's robes, one must go to the Inner Affairs Hall, as all auxiliary cultivators within the sect are managed by the Inner Affairs Hall.

The minor is related to internal affairs and logistics.

Only after the disciple who had been receiving them had gone far away did Feng Lei and Feng Dian finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Is that person very powerful?" Shen Yun asked in surprise.

"Among the outer disciples, Senior Brother Sun is also a legendary figure. It is said that he possesses immense physical strength and can lift 80,000 jin with one arm."

Feng Lei looked at the man's back with admiration and longing.

"If he didn't want to hone his skills to the extreme before opening the Blood Sea, Senior Brother Sun would have already entered the inner sect."

"Furthermore, a true elder declared that if Senior Brother Sun's strength exceeds 95,000, he will immediately accept him as a disciple and promote him to the rank of true disciple."

Shen Yun was astonished. Eighty thousand jin of pure physical strength was unbelievable.

"Isn't it said that the ninth level of body cultivation grants the strength of ten thousand jin? How can he possibly have over eighty thousand jin?"

If we take into account the enhancements from cultivation techniques, combat strategies, and magical artifacts, wouldn't it be approaching a million jin?

"Uncle Shen, that's a cultivator with average talent. Our Holy Sect requires its disciples to possess at least 33,000 jin of strength when they attempt to break through the Blood Sea."

When the topic of wind power came up, it was like a deflated balloon.

"Ten thousand jin is not the limit of the ninth level of body cultivation. It can still be refined. For example, my brother and I have a foundation of three Daos. When we refine it to the limit, we can have a strength of thirty-one thousand jin."

Feng Lei took over, his voice tinged with bitterness, "My brother and I, if we want to reach the threshold of the Holy Sect's breakthrough into the Blood Sea, we also need to cultivate a Heavenly Technique in addition to barely make it."

Reaching the limit is inherently difficult. If polishing 80% is 50% difficult, then the last 20% is 100% difficult.

Those with insufficient Dao foundation must put in far more effort than others to attempt to break through to the Blood Sea.

The minimum requirement for the Holy Sect to recruit disciples, the Three-Three Dao Foundation, also originates from this.

Only then did the two realize why the young lady hadn't brought those from her clan with insufficient Dao foundations into the Holy Sect.

Fortunately, it's not impossible, but it's very difficult.

Practicing another celestial skill can also meet the requirements.

Shen Yun thought for a moment and asked, "So, if Feng Baixuan's Dao Foundation is honed to its limit, her pure physical strength could reach 56,000 jin?"

"That's right. Although she started cultivating later, she should be able to break through to the Blood Sea Realm faster than us brothers."

Fenglei Wind Power sighed; this was the unfortunate reality.

The difference in talent is clearly evident.

To reach Feng Baixuan's limit, they need to cultivate two Heavenly Techniques to perfection and one Heavenly Technique to minor success.

Feng Lei said, "Some things are not born, and it takes more time to make up for them later in life."

The same practice.

It will take them more time and resources than Feng Baixuan to bridge the gap between them.

The limits of the physical body are related to the success rate of breaking through the Blood Sea, as well as the potential after opening the Blood Sea, so it cannot be taken lightly.

Those who do not meet the requirements have limited potential to open up the Blood Sea, and the Holy Sect will not assign them Dragon Vein Caves for cultivation.

For example, none of the cities like Seeking Immortals could reach the Blood Sea because their foundation was insufficient after the breakthrough, preventing them from advancing further.

of course.

The two didn't say these words; they didn't believe Shen Yun had a chance to break through the Blood Sea.

Looking at the young man sighing and lamenting, Shen Yun said optimistically, "It would be good if we could make up for it later in life; the worst thing is not even having the chance to make up for it later!"

His Dao Foundation is at level 13, and his limit is 13,000 jin, which is far from 33,000 jin.

Judging from Feng Leifengdian's tone, it seems that it wouldn't be difficult for the Holy Sect to obtain the Heavenly Merit.

Previously, Shen Yun lived in Lingnongfang, and there was no one around him striving to break through the Blood Sea.

After listening to the two of them today, I have a general goal in mind to strive for.

From this perspective, joining the Holy Sect was the right choice.

Dharma, wealth, companions, and place—all have their value and significance in spiritual practice.

The two had just returned from the Great Wilderness and had some free time, so they explained many things about the Holy Sect to Shen Yun.

At noon, Shen Yun treated the two to a meal at a small restaurant nearby.

It's a restaurant in the heart of the holy city, serving delicious food and refreshing wine.

The two brothers swallowed hard, their eyes constantly glancing at the table.

This table of food and wine must be worth one or two source stones, but the two brothers couldn't bear to spend so much.

"The sect completely abandons us disciples; we have to pay contribution points every month for the accommodations assigned by the sect."

At the dinner table, Feng Lei and Feng Dian enjoyed their meal and poured out their grievances to Shen Yun.

"Contribution points are hard to come by, but they can be exchanged for a lot of good things. Most people just spend money to stay outside."

Shen Yun was not entirely ignorant of this matter.

The outer disciples are all at the Body Nourishing Realm, unable to absorb the essence of heaven and earth from the outside world, so they can just find a place to stay in the Holy City.

Song Zichen, who lived in the same alley, spent most of his time living in Lingnongfang with his father.

During their conversation, Shen Yun learned that neither Feng Lei nor Feng Dian had rented a house from the sect; instead, they had rented a small courtyard outside using source stones.

Feng Baixuan lives with a senior female student.
