Chapter 32: Chapter 32 Qi Cultivation Level 5
Zhao Yu continued to consume the meat of a top-grade, first-order Earth Attribute demon beast for an entire month, yet his Spirit Root's attribute remained completely unchanged, without a single increase. He then switched to consuming various Spiritual Medicines to enhance his Wood Attribute Spirit Root.
A month later, inside the Quiet Room.
"Cultivation Level: Earth Elemental Skill Fifth Level (0/100). Qi Refinement fifth level!"
"Divine Sense: Ninth Level of Qi Refinement (73/100)."
"I've finally advanced to the fifth level of Qi Refinement! A cause for celebration! Just in time to have Xianjiao make some braised pork. A future Golden Core ancestor cooking for me, not bad at all!"
Zhao Yu opened his eyes, stretched out his hands, and stretched his body, his eyes filled with satisfaction. After the transformation of his Spirit Root, his Cultivation speed was no longer as slow as a snail, naturally filling his heart with satisfaction.
"Uncle, this is an invitation from the Ling family of Changyang County for you."
Zhao Yu approached the dining table, where Li Xianjiao handed him an invitation.
Glancing at the invitation, Zhao Yu pondered, "The Ling family prodigy, Ling Qianxue, invites me to her 20th birthday celebration at her house? Are they planning to win me over?"
Ling Qianxue was a genius from the direct line of the Ling family with a high-grade Spirit Root. Even among the Great Sects like Cang Ling Sect, she was considered quite outstanding. Only an Earth Spirit Root could be hailed as a genius in the Cultivation sects!
But within Changyang County in Cang Country, Ling Qianxue was truly a genius. At the young age of twenty, her Cultivation Level had already reached an impressive Eighth Level of Qi Refinement. If she could manage Foundation Establishment in the future, she could potentially become the Family Head of the Ling family of Changyang County.
In the Cultivation World, the strong are revered. Even as a woman, as long as one's Cultivation Level is strong enough, she can still become the head of a family clan.
Zhao Yu took that invitation to confirm its authenticity in the Market of Nine Chens Mountain before returning to prepare.
The headquarters of the Ling family of Changyang County was located next to a Spiritual Land by Linghe Lake, near the Market of Nine Chens Mountain. Linghe Lake had a second-order, low-grade Spirit Vein, the quality of which was even superior to that of the Market of Xiaohei Mountain.
"This is the Ling family; quite impressive!"
Upon arriving at the Ling family's headquarters, Zhao Yu saw a luxurious and grand estate appear before his eyes. He handed the invitation to a gatekeeper who then led him and Li Xianjiao into the interior of the estate.
In a spacious room, dozens of Cultivators were gathered.
"Uncle Zhao, hello!"
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "Today is my daughter Qian Xue's birthday, and it is my honor that fellow daoists have graced this occasion with your presence. I hope everyone will enjoy themselves tonight!"
Many cultivators took their seats.
Servants presented an array of delicious dishes at each table.
A beautiful maidservant came up to Zhao Yu and asked, "Excuse me, are you Zhao Yu, the Pill Master?"
Zhao Yu replied, "Indeed I am!"
The maidservant said, "My young lady invites you to join her for a chat."
"Certainly!"
Zhao Yu nodded slightly and followed the maidservant, with the envious gazes of the crowd upon him, towards Ling Qian Xue's seat.
A cultivator in a Daoist robe, at the fifth level of Qi Refinement, said enviously, "It looks like Pill Master Zhao will become a guest elder of the Ling family! He might even become a first-class guest elder. In the future, he could possibly achieve Foundation Establishment. How enviable!"
Le Fei Fan's heart stirred with curiosity, and he asked, "Fellow daoist, how does one become a first-class guest elder of the Ling family?"
The Qi Refining fifth level cultivator frowned slightly and said with a tone of scorn, "Fellow daoist? A mere mortal dares refer to me as a fellow daoist, truly impolite! Cheng daoist, it seems your son-in-law seriously lacks manners!"
The other cultivators also showed mocking smiles, as many of them considered mere mortals unworthy of being compared to themselves.
Of course, there were cultivators who treated mortals equally, but they were the minority. Many cultivators acted arrogantly towards mortals, feeling superior. Even those cultivators who were kind to mortals often looked down on them in their hearts.
Le Fei Fan's face turned extremely ugly.
Ling Nian Lei also felt at a loss, uncertain about what to do.
Cheng Linlan slightly knitted her brows and said, "Luo daoist, it is my failure in discipline. Le Fei Fan, as a mortal, when you meet other cultivators you must address them as Immortal Master. Do not be disrespectful!"
Le Fei Fan's face turned ashen, and he apologized through gritted teeth, "Immortal Master Luo, my previous behavior was disrespectful. I am very sorry!"
The cultivator surnamed Luo said indifferently, "Forget it, for Pill Master Zhao's sake, I won't hold a grudge against such an insignificant person."
After that, at the banquet, several cultivators chatted merrily, treating both Le Fei Fan and Ling Nian Lei as if they were invisible.
