What kind of concept was an attribute purity of more than ninety percent?
This meant that as long as Ling Xiao was provided with enough resources, he would definitely have a chance to reach the Earth Sovereign level.
It was no wonder that the elders had lost their composure.
However, ninety percent purity wasn't the highest. There was actually a wood element purity of one hundred percent. This … this was simply inconceivable.
Mu Huai's words gave Ling Xiao a fright. He had always known about the other attributes, but he didn't know that he possessed the wood element.
The metal element was the attribute that his body possessed, and the fire, ice, and wind attributes were the result of cultivating the Three Part Returning Energy. Ling Xiao had always used these four attributes.
Now that he had broken through and gained another attribute, he was a bit dumbfounded.
"Could it be because of the Ten Thousand Year Tree's milk?
That's impossible. Right, it must be because of Old Lü. He was originally a tree spirit, and now he resides in my consciousness. That's why I'm also tainted with his wood element. "Ling Xiao pondered and finally concluded that it was definitely because of Lü Weng that he possessed the wood element.
"There's another attribute that's also at one hundred percent!" Xing Zhantian exclaimed.
At this time, Yun Xiong and the other elders could no longer sit still. They all rushed over to the square platform.
"Boss … what's going on?
It actually alarmed all the elders! "Hua Xiaogui cried out in puzzlement.
"I don't know. It seems like he possesses many attributes," Wu Sixue replied.
"This fellow really makes people curious!" Not far away, Yu Lieyan tapped her jade lips, her beautiful eyes rippling with extraordinary splendor as she muttered.
On the other side, the snow-white figure that no one approached also had a puzzled expression in her beautiful eyes.
"This is the wind attribute, but it's also at one hundred percent purity. What's going on?" Yun Xiong looked at a gray pattern in puzzlement.
"I don't care. This kid belongs to our Flag Peak," Mu Huai said confidently.
A one hundred percent wood element. As long as he was properly nurtured, his Wood Flag Peak would definitely rise above the other peaks in the future.
"Hmph, he has the metal element. He should belong to our Golden Tree Peak," Xu Jiannan said bluntly.
"He also has the fire attribute. Our Red Flag Peak also wants him," said Zhao Mingyuan, not to be outdone.
"Boy, our Blue Sea Pavilion is basically full of first-class beauties. Why don't you join our Blue Sea Pavilion? I will definitely try my best to cultivate you." Wen Haiyan was even more direct, using "seduction" on Ling Xiao.
"No, his wood element is the highest, so he should belong to our Wooden Flag Peak."
…
The elders kept arguing. All of them wanted to make Ling Xiao their disciple. As a result, Xing Zhantian and Ling Xiao did not know what to do.
"That's enough. What's the point of making a ruckus in front of everyone? We'll discuss this further in the main hall. Enforcer Xing, you go ahead and make arrangements for the other disciples," snorted Yun Xiong.
For a moment, all the elders shut their mouths.
Xing Zhantian bowed to Yun Xiong and then continued with his work. He arranged for the ten or so inner sect disciples to go to the various peaks and made arrangements and instructions for the rest.
Yun Xiong and a group of elders returned to the main hall of the sect.
Ling Xiao was directly brought in by Mu Huai. It seemed that he was determined to have Ling Xiao belong to his peak.
Everyone took their seats. Only Ling Xiao stood alone in the center of the main hall.
"Alright, let's start discussing whose peak Ling Xiao belongs to," said Yun Xiong.
As soon as he finished speaking, the elders began to fight again. Everyone wanted to have Ling Xiao.
"Sect master, please be the judge. In the past, whichever disciple's elemental purity was higher, that disciple would belong to that sect. Now that this kid's wood elemental purity has reached 100%, he should belong to our Wood Flag Peak. Sect master, please make a decision for me." Mu Huai wiped away tears of grievance as he spoke to Yun Xiong.
"Even so, his metal attribute has reached ninety percent. As long as he cultivates my Golden Dipper Mysterious Art, he will definitely be able to break through to the Earth Emperor realm in the future. A hundred years later, our sect will have an Earth Emperor expert. At that time, becoming a seventh-grade sect will not be a problem. Sect Master, let him become my disciple. I will definitely teach him with all my heart," said Xu Jiannan.
"Senior brother Nan, your Golden Dipper Mysterious Art is not complete, and although my Scarlet Arcane Art is a bit lower in rank, it is very complete. It should only be a matter of time before he breaks through to the Earth Sovereign Realm. Moreover, I also have the Fire Lotus Altar for him to cultivate, so my Scarlet Flame Flag is the most suitable for him," said Zhao Mingyuan.
Wen Haiyan wanted to say something, but after a moment of hesitation, she didn't say anything.
At this time, Yun Mengqi opened her mouth and said, "Why don't we let him choose for himself?"
Hearing this clear and melodious voice, Ling Xiao didn't avoid looking at Yun Mengqi, and his eyes revealed infinite tenderness. "That's fine.
Ling Xiao, you have multiple attributes, and now all the elders want to take you as a disciple. You can think about it yourself. This is the Peak Lord of Golden Tree Peak, Elder Xu, who specializes in the metal attribute. This is the Peak Lord of Scarlet Flame Peak, Elder Zhao, who specializes in the fire attribute. This is the Peak Lord of Wooden Flag Peak, Elder Mu, who specializes in the wood attribute. And this is the Pavilion Master of the Jade Spring Pavilion, Elder Wen, who specializes in the water attribute. "Yun Xiong introduced them one by one to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao also bowed to each of the elders. In his heart, he proudly exclaimed, "I didn't think that this young master would also become a popular commodity!"
"Oh right, you can also choose to become this sect master's disciple. This sect master specializes in the water attribute," added Yun Xiong.
For a moment, all the elders looked at Yun Xiong.
Yun Xiong laughed, "Don't look at me like that. Everyone loves talent. No matter which peak he chooses, I'll support it. In any case, it'll be the fortune of our sect."
Ling Xiao glanced at Yun Xiong, then glanced at Yun Mengqi, and began to ponder.
Everyone in the main hall grew quiet. Only the elders of Medicine Peak, Tool-Refining Peak, and the Beast Region didn't care. After all, the disciples they wanted to choose weren't chosen based on the purity of their attributes.
After a while, Ling Xiao finally spoke.
For a moment, all the elders began to grow nervous.
"Sect master, can I not choose?" Ling Xiao raised his head to look at Yun Xiong.
"What? You can't? You definitely have to make a choice. You're already an inner disciple of our Purple Sky Sect. Don't tell me you still want to betray the sect?"
"No, that's not what I meant." Ling Xiao waved his hand.
"Then what do you mean?" asked Yun Xiong.
"I feel like there's no need for all the elders to make such a big fuss over a brat like me. This will hurt the harmony between us, and I feel extremely apologetic. I want to choose another peak. Is that alright?" Ling Xiao spoke with a strong sense of righteousness, seeming to show that he was very considerate of the elders.
When Yun Mengqi heard Ling Xiao's words, she couldn't help but curse in her heart, "What kind of scheme is he planning?"
"Could it be that you want to cultivate the wind attribute?
"But none of the Elders have a wind attribute. In the entire sect, only one of the previous generation's Elders had a wind attribute. But he's already gone out adventuring, so I'm afraid you're not fated," guessed Yun Xiong.
"Brat, you have a 100% wood attribute purity. Choosing my Wood Flag Peak will allow you to reach the peak of martial arts faster. Don't worry about what other people think!" anxiously said Mu Huai.
"Choosing my Golden Tree Peak is the wisest choice."
"My Scarlet Fire Peak is the best choice for you."
… …
"Elders, please listen to me. I'm actually an alchemist." Ling Xiao had no choice but to make things clear.
"You're an alchemist?" All the elders cried out. Even Yun Xiong's expression changed slightly.
"That's right. I'm a second rank alchemist, so I want to become a disciple of Medicine Peak. Is that alright?" Ling Xiao asked Yun Xiong.
"Impossible. How can you be a second rank alchemist at such a young age?" Medicine Peak's Peak Lord, Nangong Changle, was the first to speak.
"Elder?" Ling Xiao bowed to the old man and asked.
"I am Medicine Peak's Peak Lord," replied Nangong Changle.
"So it's master." Ling Xiao immediately bowed to Nangong Changle.
"Hold on. In this batch of disciples, I only know a brat who's a first rank alchemist. I think he's called … called Hua Xiaogui. I've already arranged for him to be my disciple. I've never heard of anyone else who's an alchemist," Nangong Changle said solemnly.
Although Ling Xiao's various attributes were very pure, which meant that cultivating Tenbin was extraordinary, Nangong Changle did not think that Ling Xiao was an alchemist, let alone a second rank alchemist. This was simply unreasonable.
In order to become an alchemist, one had to first understand the various characteristics of spirit herbs and possess the fire attribute. Most importantly, one had to know how to refine pills.
The first two conditions were met by many people, but the last condition was met by very few people.
Alchemists paid particular attention to refining Tenbin, and one's temperament had to be steady and firm.
No matter how Nangong Changle looked at Ling Xiao, he did not think that Ling Xiao was an alchemist.
In order to become an alchemist, one's cultivation speed would be affected, which would slow down one's advancement. Now that Ling Xiao was already a high level Mystic cultivator at such a young age, it could be seen that he spent most of his time on cultivation. Thus, he concluded that Ling Xiao was lying.
This was not the first time that Ling Xiao had been doubted.
He smiled at Nangong Changle and said, "If master doesn't believe me, you can prepare a set of spirit herbs for the Muscle Growing Pill. I'll refine one for the elders on the spot. How about it?"
Nangong Changle looked at the confident Ling Xiao and couldn't help but think, "Could this kid really be an alchemist?
That's impossible. "
Nangong Changle did not reject Ling Xiao's request. He ordered a deacon to bring over a set of spirit herbs and a cauldron for the Muscle Growing Pill.
Yun Mengqi, who was sitting on the upper seat, was increasingly unable to understand what Ling Xiao was thinking.
She originally thought that Ling Xiao would choose to become her father Yun Xiong's disciple. She didn't expect him to choose Medicine Peak and even say that he was an alchemist.
"What is this guy doing? He only has low-grade pills like the Dew Returning Pill and the Qi Nourishing Pill. How could he be an alchemist?" Yun Mengqi thought back to when the two of them were injured in the abyss and Ling Xiao only had low-grade pills.
If Ling Xiao was a second-grade alchemist, he definitely wouldn't only have these two low-grade pills.
Everyone was filled with doubt towards Ling Xiao's actions. No one believed that he was really a second-grade alchemist.
However, Ling Xiao would soon let them know that their thoughts were wrong.
