Over the Hundred-Thousand-Li Giant Lake, Xu Fan was leisurely spending his day.
Xiong Li appeared on Xu Fan’s Spirit Boat.
“Greetings to the Great Master,” Xiong Li greeted respectfully.
“Rise, you are the first among our sect disciples to reach the Golden Core stage
and are undoubtedly deserving of the title of Senior Brother,” Xu Fan praised.
“Thank you for your kind words, Great Master,” Xiong Li said shyly.
“Alright, now that you’ve reached the Golden Core stage, it’s time you ventured into the world on your own.”
“Go to the Sect Treasure Vault and collect an artifact suitable for the Golden Core stage and 1,000 Top-grade Spirit Stones. Go out and broaden your horizons,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
Hidden Spirit Sect does not restrict the freedom of its disciples – if you want to leave, all you need to do is inform and you may go.
However, the disciples in the sect prefer staying indoors and either cultivating or spending time in the Trial Tower, something Xu Fan finds pretty boring.
Xu Fan thus, wishes to push his disciples who advance to the Golden Core stage out into the world to gain experience and not end up as sheltered homebodies even after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
They are young, they should experience the world more. The Golden Core stage is relatively safe in the Cultivation World as long as one is not reckless.
At this moment, Xiong Li had a troubled look on his face.
“Great Master, can I stay in the sect?”
“In case of an invasion, I can still contribute,” Xiong Li said with a determined look in his eyes, his greatest aim being becoming a pillar of strength for the sect.
“We appreciate your sentiment, but sending you out is to let you experience the real Cultivation World, we aren’t driving you away,”
“You’re only at the Golden Core stage, it’s a bit early to want to contribute to the sect.’
Xu Fan waved his hand, and a Golden Core Period Puppet appeared behind him.
“Can you defeat this Golden Core Period Puppet?” Xu Fan asked.
Seeing the Golden Core Period puppet, Xiong Li hung his head in shame and said, “No, I cannot.’
“The sect has no less than a million of such puppets. Before these puppets are destroyed, there is no need for a Golden Core disciple like you to meddle,”
“Go out and broaden your horizons, and meanwhile solve your bachelorhood problem. When you come back, focus on your cultivation,”
“If you really want to contribute to the sect, you need to at least have Void Cultivation stage cultivation level.”
“Your current task is to focus on your cultivation, leave the rest to the sect.” “Entering the world is also a part of cultivation.”
“That’s about all I had to say. Now, pack up, and head to the treasure house to collect your things and head out,”
“Don’t return for the next ten years.”
“Alright, off you go, don’t disturb my fishing,” Xu Fan waved his disciple away while fishing on his spirit boat.
Xiong Li looked at Xu Fan, and then at the puppet, with a warm feeling in his heart he flew towards Treasure Peak.
Meanwhile, remembering Xu Fan’s words, he made a firm resolution.
“Void Cultivation stage, I will definitely reach it,” Xiong Li promised himself.
Xiong Li arrived at the treasure house located within the mountain of Treasure Peak.
The Treasure House puppet, seeing Xiong Li approaching, immediately took out a Space Ring.
“This is the Space Ring equipped by the sect for your journey, inside you’ll find three sect travel guides. Have a look while you are outside,”
“The rest are 1,000 top-grade spirit stones, which every departing disciple is entitled to,”
“If you meet a beloved person outside, you can come back to the sect and apply for another 1,000 top-grade spirit stones.”
For some reason, Xiong Li sensed a hint of ambiguity in the puppet’s voice.
“Pu Tao, are you in heat?” Xiong Li asked.
Couldn’t we just have a serious conversation?
“Go and choose some useful treasure artifacts, it should not be more than the third-tier,”
“This set of puppets is given to you as a parting gift from the sect, and for the next ten years, you won’t have any contribution points,” the puppet said with a crestfallen expression.
“Understood,” Xiong Li nodded. Just a single third-tier treasure artifact from the treasure house is worth ten years of his contribution points.
Xiong Li entered the treasure house, and emerged after a short while.
A set of three-type spiritual power medium armor, a cloud car driving magic tool, and a five spirits protective bracelet.
“Why didn’t you take more?” the puppet asked. “These are enough, taking more would seem greedy.”
Having said that, Xiong Li left the Treasure Peak.
At the gate of the Hidden Spirit Sect, a group of first-generation disciples came out to bid farewell to their Senior Brother.
“Senior Brother, have a safe Qian Wan Bing said.
‘Bang!’ Before he could finish speaking, Xiong Li had punched him a thousand miles away.
“You take care.” Xiong Li said calmly.
“Senior Brother, these are some elixirs I’ve concocted. They can heal wounds, help in cultivation and restore spiritual power. Take these with you on the road,” a disciple who specialized in Alchemy said.
“Senior Brother, these are some practical small magical treasures. Keep them with you, they’ll come in handy.”
“Senior Brother, this is a Foundation Establishment stage Treasure Seeking Rat, you might find good fortune with this on your journey,” Lei Wenxi said.
At this moment, Qian Wan Bing, who was punched away, flew back.
“Senior Brother, these are two puppets specifically designed to serve people.
They can do some chores for you on the road,” Qian Wan Bing suggested.
After that, Xiong Li received a lot of gifts.
Looking at this group of junior fellows, Xiong Li felt as if he was with his family.
“Alright, don’t send any more, I can’t use so many things,” said Xiong Li with a smile.
“It’s a sect rule, once a disciple reaches the Golden Core stage, they should go out for ten years of cultivation. I hope I can meet you all outside,”
“See you in the cultivation world.” Having said that, Xiong Li bid everyone farewell and flew towards Linsen Immortal City.
Xu Fan, who was still fishing on the Spirit Boat, watched Xiong Li’s departing light and said with a smile, “The young bird has flown far away. When it returns, it will be a mighty eagle..”
