Fu Shanhai reminded.

"Father, do you have a plan for handling this?"

Young Master Fu felt his heart rise with concern again.

"After all, Ling Feng is just a martial arts student from a fourth-tier province who awakened his divine grade spiritual root by chance. As long as we bring him into our fold before Feng Santong, there won’t be any follow-up issues.

But my status is special, and I can’t directly take Ling Feng as a disciple. Besides, he’s merely an outer circle disciple. To become my disciple, he must first be admitted to the inner circle.

However, I promised him a resource to reward his efforts in the continental examination and for restoring human dignity.

How about I arrange for your cousin to take Ling Feng as a registered disciple, thus fulfilling the resource promise, and even if Feng Santong wants to make Ling Feng a Talisman Sect disciple, he would need our Fu Family’s consent first."

Fu Shanhai said coolly.

"Alright, I’ll arrange it right away,"

Young Master Fu agreed.

"Hold on."

Fu Shanhai was writing with a brush, and his demeanor was calm and unchanging. As he wrote, he said, "We can’t let Ling Feng become a Great Divine Thought Master. Once his Sea of Consciousness Value exceeds 90.0, it will be impossible to seize control. Tell Fu Rong, after accepting Ling Feng as a registered disciple, to delay Ling Feng’s cultivation as much as possible, especially hindering his practice of the Divine Thought Secret Manual."

"Understood, father, please rest assured."

Upon hearing this, Young Master Fu couldn’t help but laugh.

Forcing someone to cultivate hard is difficult, but making someone not cultivate is much easier. In Star Gate, there are so many human immortal paradises and heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Ling Feng, a country bumpkin, would surely be captivated, unable to let go, making it quite easy to stall him in cultivation.

...

Star Gate is the most powerful sect on Ancient Blue Star, apart from the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance, bar none.

The geographical landscape is also the best on Ancient Blue Star.

Seasons alternate, and the land is rich with people of talent and abundant spiritual qi, just as beautiful and lush as the world Ling Feng came from in his previous life, devoid of any lifeless appearance.

Exposed springs can be directly consumed without concern for pollution.

Even the fish swimming in the streams appear normal compared to those of the previous life, free of poisonous mucus and posing no threat to humans.

Although Qin Qianyu comes from a wealthy family with abundant resources, the most beautiful environment she has seen can’t compare to Ling Feng, who has prior life experiences.

Compared to Ling Feng, she is easily attracted by high-tech items, such as expensive interstellar airships and powerful Titan laser cannons.

Things that attract Qin Qianyu, besides cultivation manuals, are only akin to the environment of her previous life.

As the airship entered Star Gate, Qin Qianyu was captivated by the birdsong and floral scents, constantly gazing down from her window.

Ling Feng, on the other hand, was attracted by beautiful cultivation cave mansions built into cliffs and mountains, where technology and secret techniques blend in opulent mystique.

And layers of mysterious arrays covering the skies above Star Gate.

He noticed that the airship could pass safely through the arrays because it was coated with special runes, along with guidance and manipulation of the arrays within Star Gate, preventing the airship and array powers from colliding.

He sensed that the arrays overhead were similar to the South Heaven Gate Array, multiple instances, not merely indestructible but solid as fortresses.

Even the strongest sea god king, Mengba, were he to descend here, would need effort and time to break through, risking backlash.

Everything here truly opened Ling Feng’s eyes.

Star Gate appeared to Ling Feng and Qin Qianyu as a third world, where neither could match the power within any single rune magic spell.

Many people walked within the sect, looking ordinary. Even those doing hard labor oppressed the two with an overwhelming presence.

Especially when the airship landed at the airport and they disembarked, the servant disciples working there stared at them, suffocating both Ling Feng and Qin Qianyu.

It seemed that anyone possessed far greater origin power than them, and many had Heaven and Earth Harmony Indexes surpassing 50.0.

However, 60.0 appeared as a significant boundary, beyond which one typically escaped a servant’s status.

"Ling Feng, Qin Qianyu, welcome to Star Gate."

"Young Master Fu!"

Disembarking, Ling Feng and Qin Qianyu were surprised to find Young Master Fu, with whom they had previously met briefly, waiting at the airport.

"My father promised you cultivation resources, and I’m here to fulfill that promise."

Young Master Fu explained.

Upon hearing this, the two exhibited joyous expressions.

True strength indeed fulfills promises promptly.

"Qin Qianyu, you excel in swordsmanship. My father has arranged for you to train at Sword Sect. This is your teacher."

Young Master Fu said.

"Thank you, Young Master Fu and Elder Fu!"

Qin Qianyu, filled with excitement, bowed to a middle-aged man with a black longsword beside Young Master Fu, saying, "Disciple Qin Qianyu, greetings, sir."

"Good, follow me."

The middle-aged man nodded. Qin Qianyu possessed super-grade spiritual roots and two origin powers, grounded in solid swordsmanship and steady in demeanor, a child of a prestigious family. Having such a person training under him wouldn’t bring disgrace.

If Qin Qianyu achieves great success in sword dao and prospers, given her disposition, she wouldn’t fail him. By bringing Qin Qianyu into training today, he’s also leaving future opportunities for himself.

The middle-aged man’s name is Kuang Siqi.

He is a Foundation Establishment expert with great success in sword dao.

In the area of Ancient Blue Star belonging to Star Gate, he is considered a first-rate sword dao practitioner, not only high in cultivation but also having evolved spiritual power, spotting favorable causal ties from Qin Qianyu.

"Ling Feng, this is my cousin, a Super Divine Mind Master who will become an Artifact Refiner. Train under him!"

After arranging Qin Qianyu, Young Master Fu introduced Ling Feng.

Typically, Qin Qianyu couldn’t obtain such cultivation resources upon entering Star Gate, but to prevent gossip and future suspicions, she gained this opportunity to join Sword Sect and train under Kuang Siqi. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Super Divine Mind Master?"

Ling Feng’s eyes sparkled.

The bald-headed dean had just explained the differences between Great Divine Thought Masters and Super Divine Mind Masters the night before, and he was astonished to already be training under one upon entering Star Gate.

He wondered how much Coasting Along Value he could acquire from them.

"Ling Feng, would you like to train under me, join my disciples, and become my registered disciple?"

Fu Rong asked.
