Peerless Immortal God

Chapter 56- Core Disciples

Chapter 56

She closed her eyes and began to suppress the demon entity within her dantian. Few minutes later, the veins on her body began to fade, restoring her otherworldly beauty.
        
When she finally suppressed it, her face was slightly pale. The entity would probably awaken in a few days time and she would need to suppress it again, but in the meantime, there was nothing to worry about.

Natural energy gathered around her and she began to absorb the energies in huge amounts. Slowly, her dantian began to fill up, and a slight chill seeped out of her body without her knowledge, suddenly lowering the temperature of the pavilion.

Long feng left his seclusion three days later, feeling energized. Standing outside his pavilion, he stretched his hands and yawned tiredly. He had completely consolidated his rank one Yin level cultivation. His foundation could not be more solid than it was currently, and he still had a large amount of energy within his dantian which he had gotten from the jade he absorbed previously.

He just needed to gain a little more impetus and he would breakthrough to the rank two Yin level.
     
After thinking for a while, Long feng took out a small palm sized token. This was the token given to him by Lord Yi Ming in order to help him to move to and from the Core court without Elder Zhang's help. He hadn't visited Lord Yi Ming in a month. The latter might be worried about him.
     
Long feng had learnt that the Core court was located in the depth of the Mortal heaven sect. It could be called the gathering of crouching tigers and hidden dragons.

All Core disciples were proud sons of heaven who could at least reach the Yang level. The Core court was also where high ranking elders and even the enigmatic Sect Master resided. The Core court was simply the heart of the sect.
       
Hesitating slightly, Long feng walked towards the depth of the Mortal heaven sect. He walked past vast expanses of land and was stunned by the size of the Mortal heaven sect itself.

Three hours later, he spotted a huge gate in the distance and he recognized it as the same gate Elder Zhang used to go through to reach the Core court. Stationed before the gate were dozens of guards. Long feng unhesitatingly dashed towards the gate.
     
He spotted many figures by the gate. The weakest among these figures were rank five Yin level cultivators and the strongest were rank eight Yin level cultivators! And these were only guards to the Core court. They weren't actually stationed anywhere inside the Court itself!

As he arrived before the gate, he was stopped, their powerful auras washing over him and forcing him to step back.
"You have transgressed into the territory of the Core court. Identify yourself or be punished!" A rank seven Yin level cultivator bellowed, his voice sharp and his hand already moving to the sword by his waist.

"Elite disciple, Long feng, Lord Yi Ming's disciple!" Long feng hurriedly showed them his token.

The guards were visibly stunned.
"Elite disciple? Is that a joke?" A rank six Yin level cultivator chuckled.

"Lord Yi Ming accepted an Elite disciple? Is he looking down on the Core court or what?" A rank seven Yin level cultivator asked.
      
Long feng had expected to be welcomed cooly but he didn't think the guards would be so open! They spoke as if he wasn't present here.

"Is there anything special about him that he caught Lord Yi Ming's eye?" Someone asked.

"Didn't he mention that his name was Long feng? There are some rumors going around the sect about him. His martial talent seems to be good" another person replied.

"Let him go. Whatever the reason is, those kids with their noses on their foreheads wouldn't be pleased to know this. It'll be in your best interest kid, to avoid all Core disciples." A rank eight Yin level cultivator said, advising Long Feng.
