The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

As soon as Chonglu began to sense Chi Miao's physical body, he focused his senses on her dantian.

But her dantian was empty, and he couldn't even find where Chi Miao's foundation-building "wall" was.

Without a "wall," it means that Chi Miao has no ability to preserve spiritual power and condense a golden core.

But Chi Miao's Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment was witnessed by all of them.

The aura that Chi Miao subsequently displayed was absolutely genuine.

Until... he sensed wisps of power outside his dantian.

He then gradually expanded the range of his senses.

Sensing Chi Miao's entire body.

This action completely shocked him, leaving him speechless and trembling.

Chi Miao's spiritual power was extremely vast, far exceeding that of others at the same level.

Even more astonishingly, her body was filled with spiritual energy, not only in her dantian but also in every other part of her body! And its activity was extremely high!

Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and even lightning!

"The Five Elements, lightning attribute... Strangely, these attributes are clearly all within Chi Miao's body, yet they show absolutely no sign of merging with him!"

It's as if each different spiritual power is obedient and stays wherever it's told to.

But this is simply a pipe dream!

Chong Shuai observed more carefully and then discovered that... Chi Miao did not lack "walls," but her "walls" were different from ordinary people's, not limited to the dantian—they expanded throughout her entire body!

Each attribute is separated by strangely shaped "walls," as if each attribute's spiritual power has its own private room.

"This...this?!"

Chong Shuai's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Chi Miao with an expression as if he were looking at a monster: "Your Foundation Establishment, your Wall... what exactly happened?!"

Others were confused.

"What's going on, Sect Master? What did you see? Why are you making such a fuss all of a sudden?"

Chong Shuai chuckled: "I'm making a fuss? Come and see for yourselves, you'll be making a bigger fuss than I am!"

Yan Ge: "I don't believe it."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and grasped Chi Miao's other hand.

After a while.

"Holy crap?!" Yan Ge was so shocked that he lost his composure and didn't come to his senses for a moment.

Everyone became even more curious when they saw this.

Is Chi Miao's physical body not human? It's astonishing that even you two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators are this shocked.

He Wanban went up and grabbed Chi Miao's shoulder.

"Holy crap?!?"

Qinghuan went up and pinched Chi Miao's face.

"What the hell?!"

Finally, each person gave a pinch and a sentence, and everyone was stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

Chi Miao was the only one suffering.

You guys touched her completely naked!!

She said, "Everyone, could you please let me go?"

They snapped out of their daze, their eyes still somewhat blank, and asked her, "What's going on with you? Are you trying to defy the heavens?!"

Chi Miao's eyes lit up: "Hey right, you've hit the nail on the head. I really am defying the heavens."

She smiled, a slight curl of her lips.

He then explained that after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he learned about the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment from the Supreme Elder.

The more they listened, the more a chill ran down their spines.

My mind was a mess, completely overwhelmed by what Chi Miao had said and shown, to the point that I was gradually becoming demented and numb.

"The Heavenly Dao Foundation Building is actually the biggest scam in the world?!"

"He achieved enlightenment after only a few words of guidance from the Supreme Elder? And in just seven days... he created a technique like the Lotus Sutra?!"

"You've overcome the problem of cultivating all five elements simultaneously just like that?!"

"Shocked! I rarely use the word 'shocked' to describe my feelings."

The more they looked at Chi Miao, the more terrifying he seemed.

Even their own people find it terrifying.

That's terrifying!!

Chi Miao was secretly delighted, and even pouted and uttered "Yesmola."

But she still pretended to be innocent.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not a monster."

"We'd rather you were a monster!"

"We're all human... why is there such a huge difference between us?!"

Chi Miao: "Oh, there's no need to feel inferior compared to me."

She really enjoys this feeling of showing off.

I love how you all envy, are jealous of, and hate her, but in the end, you can't do anything about it.

That was awesome!

The next second, Yan Ge punched her on the head.

Chi Miao held her head in her hands.

"What are you doing!"

Yan Ge: "I hate pretentious people the most in my life."

Chi Miao: "..."

After everyone fell silent.

Yan Ge said, "The matter of the Yang spiritual root and the simultaneous cultivation of the five elements... you should not let others know about it for the time being."

Chi Miao asked in confusion, "Why?"

Chong Shuai explained, "Because it's too special."

"In the past, everyone regarded those with mixed spiritual roots who cultivated all five elements as useless, not only because they needed more spiritual power to cultivate, but also because they were very likely to be in mortal danger."

"But you are different. You have a Yang spiritual root, and your cultivation speed is incredibly fast. You have also completely solved the safety problem of cultivating the five elements simultaneously."

"You are currently the only person who can truly cultivate all five elements simultaneously."

"This means that your fighting style, including your future path... is wider than we imagined."

"The tallest tree in the forest is bound to be felled by the wind. You are already being watched by many people because of your foundation building in the Heavenly Dao. If another cultivator of the Five Elements were to emerge, I'm afraid... once you open the Heavenly Sorrow Cave, your death will be imminent."

"The demon will kill you, the beast will kill you, and even man... will kill you."

"Just as the Supreme Elder told you, the way of Heaven is unjust, and it fears that a certain too powerful being might disrupt the stability. The way of the world... is also like this."

A tall tree catches the wind, and the wind will surely destroy it.

If this is the way of Heaven, how can the way of the world be any different?

Those who are not of our kind, no matter how strong, are still a threat.

Anyone who is not on my side, no matter how strong, is still my enemy.

Chi Miao was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Yes."

"I will hide it well until I can protect myself."

Jin Shengfei said, "I will protect you too."

Ying Wuhuo pondered for a moment, then hummed in agreement.

If he had only been curious about Chi Miao before, and it was only through a series of coincidences that he became close to Chi Miao.

And now.

He truly regarded Chi Miao as his "junior sister" and his "friend".

Although he can be a bit cheeky, he's not bad to his own people.

She's sensible.

From the moment she dared to withstand the pressure of Mahayana cultivation despite only being at the Foundation Establishment stage, and spoke up for Nine Swords Mountain.

He then accepted Chi Miao.

Jin Shengfei, however, came even earlier.

The moment Chi Miao was willing to hold up a lightning rod and brave the thunderstorm for his fellow disciples.

Chi Miao raised her hand: "I am very touched by your kindness, but I have a question."

"you say."

"I don't think you guys can beat me."

"..."

The fist hardened.

But that might actually be the truth!

However, this did not prevent Jin Shengfei and Ying Wuhuo from breaking through the defenses.

"You bastard, we finally managed to get a little emotional, and you have to mock us instead!"

"Hey, what are you doing? We're civilized people, we don't talk!"

"Help!!!"

……

Watching the three of them making a ruckus.

The elders all wore indulgent smiles.

"Wu Huo is rarely this mischievous."

"There's nothing I can do, Miao Miao is just too shameless."

"However, now that Wu Huo has broken through to the half-step Golden Core stage, perfected the Saint Fei Talisman Array, and is in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, not to mention Miao Miao, it shouldn't be a problem for the rest of them to go to the Ten Sects training camp together, right?"

Chong Shuai's eyes grew increasingly deep, revealing a hint of caution:

"It's hard to say."

"After all, those little prodigies weren't raised to be trifled with."
