Chapter 533 - Trial Disciple (1/2)
”What? Player Yuan is currently in the Jaded Garden? How is that possible?”
”I am serious! I witnessed him spar with Elder Xi and win! He was even wearing his signature black mask!”
”But why would Player Yuan come here? Maybe he wants to join this faction?”
”That would be incredible if that was true. Imagine being in the same faction as Player Yuan! We'll become an unstoppable force!”
The disciples of Spiritual Elites were both baffled and excited by the news, and all of them wanted to meet Player Yuan for themselves, but that was much easier said than done, as he was currently being escorted by all six grand elders.
If they bother them, they would risk getting kicked out of the faction.
”Welcome to our Immortal Caves, Daoist Yuan.” Senior Xi said to him as they approached this small mountain that had a couple of cave entrances around it.
Yuan took a deep breath, sucking in the fresh Qi from the place.
”You're right.. This place has an incredible amount of spiritual energy.” Yuan said to them.
”Let me show you inside the Immortal Caves.” Senior Wang said as she approached one of the cave entrances.
Yuan followed her, and the closer they got to the cave, the stronger the spiritual energy became.
”Wow… This is an immortal cave?”
Yuan was speechless upon seeing the decoration inside that was the opposite of his expectations.
He'd expected the place to be a gloomy cave with nothing but rocks, but to his surprise, there was an entire room filled with furniture inside the immortal cave! And there was even a door!
”This is a modern-day immortal cave.” Senior Wang said with a smile on her face.
”You probably expected something more boring, but cultivators in our day and age cultivate better in this kind of environment.” Senior Wang said with a smile on her face.
”Look, there is even a bathroom in here.”
After showing Yuan around the place, Senior Wang said, ”If you join us, we can give you one of these immortal caves.”
”Normally, only grand elders and the family heads are allowed to stay inside an immortal cave permanently, but we will make this an exception for you.”
”I will consider it,” Yuan said.
”Hmm…”
Senior Wang began pondering when she heard his voice that carried a hint of disinterest.
”How about this Daoist Yuan. You can stay here for a month— or even a week as a disciple. You will gain access to the Immortal Caves and some of our techniques as if you are an official disciple, but you have no obligations to join us. And once your time as a trial disciple is over, you can decide whether you want to join us or not.”
”A trial disciple?” Yuan raised his eyebrows. He didn't think they'd go this far just to invite him into their faction.
”What if I learn all of your techniques and decide not to join?” Yuan then asked.
”Of course, we have already considered this possibility, and we're willing to take the risks.” Senior Wang said, as the grand elders have spoken about this matter way before Yuan even arrived.
