1713 Secluded Cultivation, Digesting the Gains

“Are you talking about an appointment from the Imperial Court? Isn’t there only an appointment after one becomes an elite disciple?” Chu Yunfan asked.

“Yes, but according to the rules, the number one of every inner disciple competition will automatically be promoted to an elite disciple,” Yi Yunyao said, “And until now, there has never been a winner who had yet to become an Interpreter.”

Chu Yunfan originally thought that he would only receive an appointment from the Imperial Court after he broke through to the Abstract Interpretation Stage. When he broke through to the Abstract Interpretation Stage, he would even dare to fight a true disciple. At that time, he would be able to easily accept any appointment from the Imperial Court.

However, now that he had been promoted to an elite disciple in advance, it could be said that he was a little caught off guard. However, he did not panic. After all, although he had been forcefully promoted, his combat strength was still comparable to an elite disciple.

“So now, you have to decide whether you want to be a military officer or a civil officer,” Yi Yunyao said, “You are free to choose in this aspect. However, most of the Flying Celestials’ disciples join the army or a law enforcement department. If you join the army, you might receive the Flying Celestials’ help. If you join the civil service, that will be the Virtuous Academy’s world. Although the Flying Celestials also have seniors who are officials in the court, the highest official is only an assistant minister.”

“I’ll join the army. I’ve already made plans,” Chu Yunfan said. He had already made up his mind. Choosing to join the army was not only because the Flying Celestials was more powerful in the military system, but more importantly, after joining the army, he could openly cultivate his power.

“Yes, but you have to be careful because Wang Yifan won’t let this go easily. When you leave the Flying Celestials, he’ll pull many tricks,” Yi Yunyao warned.

“Thank you for the advice, Senior Yi. I’m already prepared.” Chu Yunfan nodded. “I have to go back to seclusion and digest my gains. I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll come to visit you again in the future.”

“All right.” Yi Yunyao nodded.

After bidding farewell to Yi Yunyao, Chu Yunfan returned to his residence. He hurriedly opened the spatial bag that held the competition rewards.

It was exactly as You Chuyun had said. Other than a million middle-grade spirit stones, there was also a Flying Celestial Fruit and a supreme-grade spirit weapon, the Bewitching Banner.

The Bewitching Banner was a silver-gray flag. It looked ancient and had some mysterious patterns on it. Other than that, it was not eye-catching. However, after Chu Yunfan used his divine sense to explore it, he quickly understood the function of the flag.

This item proved to be extremely rare. It was not used for offense or defense. On the contrary, it was a flag that could control people’s minds. If the user was strong enough, they could even hypnotize their opponents and make them their slaves. This was not a magic tool used by the righteous path, but a magic tool seized by the Flying Celestials when they attacked a demonic sect. It had been stored in the treasure vault.

Originally, such a magic tool wouldn’t be given to disciples because it didn’t conform to the style of righteous sects. However, this item had become a reward under Wang Yifan’s manipulation.

Chu Yunfan thought about it and understood. Wang Yifan probably had some plans with the Bewitching Banner. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have spent so much effort to obtain it. Unfortunately, Yuwen Xing was too disappointing and couldn’t become the winner. In the end, Chu Yunfan benefited.

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan wanted to laugh. What did it mean to steal a chicken but fail and lose rice? This was stealing a chicken but failing and losing the rice.

“Since it has fallen into my hands, I’ll put it to good use.” Chu Yunfan smiled.

Although this Bewitching Banner was not a magic tool that could be used for offense, if it was used well, it would be much more powerful than ordinary offensive magic tools.

However, the most important reward was the Flying Celestial Fruit. It was sealed in a jade box by a restriction to prevent spirit energy from leaking out. Chu Yunfan could sense that there was a huge amount of energy contained in the fruit. It was extremely terrifying.

“I’ll consume the Flying Celestial Fruit first and complete my transformation. At that time, I’ll be able to contend with elite disciples at the Abstract Interpretation Stage. Even if I don’t take on the hou form, my battle prowess will undergo a tremendous change.” Chu Yunfan quickly made up his mind and stopped hesitating.

He entered the Mountain River Diagram and then hovered cross-legged in the air. In front of him was the Flying Celestial Fruit. He opened his mouth and swallowed it. The fruit turned into a vast clear stream that flowed into his limbs and bones. Chu Yunfan could feel that the fruit had spread into every cell in his body, tearing at every cell in his body crazily. Every time it tore, it brought him great pain, but it was immediately repaired by an even greater force.

In this process of continuous destruction and repair, Chu Yunfan’s body seemed to be undergoing a transformation. Ordinary people could not withstand the immense medicinal strength of the Flying Celestial Fruit, and even elite disciples at the Abstract Interpretation Stage were the same.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan could tell that Wang Yifan had requested this fruit not for Yuwen Xing, but for himself. All these schemes were just to borrow Yuwen Xing’s name, but now they were all for Chu Yunfan’s benefit.

However, Chu Yunfan was different. He had the Imperial Physique and the Thunderclap Physique. Both of them were not something that ordinary people could imagine. He could even fight against a spirit weapon with his bare hands. What a terrifying physical quality.

Chu Yunfan forcefully blocked the terrifying energy that was like a nuclear explosion. He circulated the Emperor Method to absorb the energy and transform it into his own strength. More than half of the energy of the fruit had been absorbed by his body, and he was advancing toward an even more shocking level of strength.

The remaining half was absorbed by Chu Yunfan’s body and turned into energy for his breakthrough. At this moment, he had reached the peak of the Abstract Stage, and now, under the impact of this enormous energy, he broke through to the Abstract Observance Stage.

At the same time, the godhead in Chu Yunfan’s mind emitted a faint light, and countless memories and experiences regarding the Abstract Observance Stage in the Alchemy Emperor’s memories surfaced, and they were analyzed and fused by Chu Yunfan at an astonishing speed.
