...That Master had already left.

Lu Qing's brief internal monologue did not show any obvious expression.

"After you awaken, you may leave on your own. If you enter the Inner Sect Courtyard in the future, you may present this token and proceed to my Dao Field."

This message, which appeared in his ears out of thin air, was clearly left by that Master.

Lu Qing glanced at the others out of the corner of his eye. None of the six had woken up, nor had they heard any movement from his side.

It was, of course, normal not to see that Master here. After the sermon, everything was to be comprehended by oneself.

Upon hearing this, he said, "Thank you, Master, for imparting the Dao."

He stood up and bowed in the direction Li Luoyang had previously been facing.

In any case, the gains Lu Qing received from this sermon could be considered the greatest fated opportunity he had encountered since he began Cultivation.

Afterward, Lu Qing did not linger. There were seven people here. Previously, because that Master was present, Lu Qing had not scrutinized them or looked at their faces carefully.

But now, looking around, he noticed two of them. They should be the Geniuses with Earth Grade Aptitude. During the first lecture, he had already memorized the faces of that group of people who had descended in formation, to avoid running into them.

Therefore, he did not continue to stay here to refine his gains, but decided to leave first.

Since he hadn't dared to carefully observe the others in plain sight, judging others by himself, Lu Qing felt that at that time, no one would have specifically turned to look at others.

After all, this Master's style of doing things was swift and decisive. He didn't wait for them to introduce themselves, nor did he introduce his own name, before beginning the sermon.

Lu Qing did not want to stay and exchange pleasantries with these people, who might be Senior Brothers or Junior Brothers.

If others knew that an Inner Sect Courtyard Elder had taken on a Named Disciple in the Outer Court, it would undoubtedly add many ripples to his Cultivation.

Just thinking about the endless probes, challenges, or social obligations that would arise in the future, Lu Qing seized the time. After bowing, he rode a rainbow light back to his Spirit Leaf Island.

It was safer to stay on his island and slowly refine the remaining insights from the golden lotus Dao rhythm and this harvest.

Thus, Lu Qing did not expect that just as he had left, the next second, a somewhat strange person had already set foot on this main peak's Dao Field.

At the same time, the two Earth Grade Geniuses he recognized also opened their eyes simultaneously.

Lin Tiannan and Fu Wuding, these two were Earth Grade, but Aptitude only guaranteed the lower limit of Cultivation, not the upper limit.

They both undertook missions and, along with many Geniuses, participated in the demon-extermination mission last year.

They knew about the news of a Small Realm there, as their Clan backgrounds were both impressive.

However, after that incident, their Foundation was damaged. Because of this, their Clan turned to support others.

Another point was that, unlike the Heaven Grade Prodigies who entered and became disciples, they only received quotas for entry as disciples. Originally, if they broke through to Purple Mansion, this quota could be realized.

But precisely because their Foundation was damaged and their Aptitude declined, being able to enter Purple Mansion was already the last bit of effort from their Master and Clan.

How could these two be willing to accept that?!

Therefore, when Li Luoyang came out this time, recruiting disciples was optional, and whoever he took would only be given the title of a Named Disciple.

These two, due to their background, also entered here.

At this moment, they opened their eyes and immediately noticed that someone had awakened before them and was looking around.

"Junior Brother, who are you?"

Fu Wuding smiled slightly and asked.

However, a trace of disdain flashed imperceptibly in his eyes.

After all, the faded clothes on the other party were truly not commendable.

"Me? My name is Feng Yun. Do you want to fight me?"

Feng Yun seemed to sense the 'malice' of the two, but he interpreted that 'malice' as a desire to fight.

Others had also released 'Battle Intent' like this before, and he immediately became excited.

"Arrogant."

Lin Tiannan's expression immediately turned cold.

The others also woke up one after another, and upon doing so, immediately witnessed a challenge filled with the scent of gunpowder.

They all looked at each other in confusion, wondering what kind of situation this was.

Meanwhile, Lu Qing, who had left a step earlier, had no idea that the disciple he had found strange earlier had already clashed with those two Geniuses.

However, even if he knew, he was currently occupied.

From Elder Song Wen's Small Cloud Dao Field back to Lu Qing's own Spirit Leaf Island on the sea, without the White Crane Boy for transportation, Lu Qing's own escape light speed was also impressive.

Due to his greatly increased Cultivation, he quickly returned to his Spirit Leaf Island in about an incense stick's time.

He immediately began to go into seclusion.

One month later.

Spirit Leaf Island.

The mountains on the island were clear in the sunlight, and birds sang among fragrant flowers.

On the north and south sides of the leaf-shaped island, on one side, pale purple Purple Moon Fruit trees towered, while on the other, cinnabar-like Dragon Heart Fruit vines meandered.

One red and one purple, their bright colors spread across the vast spiritual fields, appearing particularly vibrant and reducing some of the plainness of a Cultivation island.

A river flowing down from the western mountain range passed through the spiritual fields on both sides, dividing them in the center like a chasm, giving the impression of a river dividing spiritual fields. On the riverbank, a smooth, round, green stone sat in the southeast corner.

A young man's figure sat cross-legged upon it, his aura subtly expanding and contracting, harmonizing with the gurgling sound of the flowing water, natural and formless.

Suddenly, an invisible surge of Qi emanated from him, stirring up several waves in the nearby river.

This time, Lu Qing had been in seclusion for a month, stabilizing his Realm and re-organizing the Profound Heaven Origin Scripture, focusing on the eighth and ninth layers.

This process of organization and consolidation, taking a month, finally allowed him to thoroughly refine the gains from the sermon.

His Purple Mansion Sixth Realm was also completely consolidated.

With his Cultivation improved, Lu Qing carefully comprehended the hint of Divine Ability insight he had gained during the sermon, which he had heard in a hazy state.

After his Comprehension increased, when he looked at Law and Divine Ability again, it was no longer like before, where he couldn't see the mountain.

At least now, he had seen this tall mountain.

Divine Ability involves wielding Law in the palm of one's hand.

It also encompasses the myriad principles of heaven and earth, yet it is difficult to infuse into one's consciousness. Even for the same Divine Ability, each Cultivator's execution of it will show various differences.

Following established rules is common, but the higher one goes, the more one needs insights that are not so 'rule-abiding'...
