Food System in Cultivation World-Chapter 430 - 398_2

Seeing Ye Ningzhen from afar, two mountain-guarding disciples hurriedly bowed respectfully, "Master Senior Sister has returned, greetings Master Senior Sister!"

As it turns out, Ye Ningzhen is actually the Master Senior Sister of the fifty-sixth generation disciples in Shenji Sect.

Previously, Ye Ningzhen had not specifically mentioned this to Chen Xu and Ji Yang.

At the foot of the mountain, Ye Ningzhen’s expression suddenly became more composed. She returned a reserved smile to the two disciples and said, "Very good, you two have worked hard." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Ji Yang watched all this with curiosity, only feeling that Ye Ningzhen seemed to have countless faces.

The two mountain-guarding disciples also looked curiously at Chen Xu and Ji Yang.

They asked Ye Ningzhen, "Master Senior Sister, who might these two be? Please forgive us, our duty compels us..."

Upon being asked, Ye Ningzhen immediately felt a bit proud.

She did not show much outwardly, just answered in a seemingly indifferent tone:

"They are Spirit Chef disciples I recruited from outside. This is Junior Brother Chen, eighteen years old, at Foundation Establishment Late Stage."

"Hiss..."

Upon hearing these words, the two mountain-guarding disciples immediately gasped in surprise.

Ye Ningzhen then pretended to be casual and said, "However, his Spirit Chef qualification still needs to be assessed. I am taking Junior Brother Chen to the Spirit Meal Hall to assess his Spirit Chef grade.

Do not worry, brothers. Guard the mountain diligently.

If there’s good news and Junior Brother Chen can successfully join, I will certainly send someone to inform you two.

In the future, when you guard the mountain and see Junior Brother Chen and Junior Brother Ji, do not forget to look after them."

The two mountain-guarding disciples were terrified, as they were only at Qi Cultivation Late Stage. How could they possibly look after someone at Foundation Establishment Late Stage?

The two repeatedly said they dare not, and looked at Chen Xu and Ye Ningzhen with astonishment and envy.

The sincerity in their gaze made Ye Ningzhen feel very gratified.

She didn’t delay any further, just as she was about to take Chen Xu and Ji Yang up the mountain, she suddenly saw someone rushing down the mountain path ahead like a gale.

That person, seeing Ye Ningzhen from afar, exclaimed with joy, "Master Senior Sister, indeed it’s you who has returned, wonderful!

Brother Zhang and Brother Liu nearly got into a fight at the Spirit Meal Hall, and now they are competing.

Several Uncles and Elders are in secluded meditation, we... we really cannot persuade the two brothers..."

While speaking, the person leaped and in a few bounds arrived in front of Ye Ningzhen.

This person was small in stature, with a clever face and a pair of wind-catching ears, looking like a monkey at first glance.

Of course, this was actually a genuine person.

It’s just that his appearance was somewhat monkey-like, making people mistakenly think it was a spirit monkey from afar.

Ye Ningzhen’s expression suddenly darkened, and with anger said:

"Those people at the Spirit Meal Hall, relying on... humph, relying on the current lack of discipline, have become unruly.

Let’s go, I want to see what absurd outcomes they can argue about."

She first stepped forward, then saw Zhou Hou looking curiously at Chen Xu and Ji Yang, so she introduced the two to Zhou Hou.

Naturally, she couldn’t help but mention that Chen Xu is eighteen-years-old at Foundation Establishment Late Stage and has Spirit Chef qualifications in the future.

Zhou Hou gasped in amazement, "Brother Chen... Brother Chen so young, with such cultivation, is indeed a genius even in the Inner City!

Oh, our Master Senior Sister really is fortunate, just descending the mountain casually and then encountering a genius like Brother Chen with such qualifications.

Brother Chen, this way please, this way please."

Zhou Hou became extremely enthusiastic, guiding Chen Xu up the mountain while talking endlessly:

"Master Senior Sister meeting Brother Chen is truly fortunate, Brother Chen meeting our Master Senior Sister is also fortunate.

Does Brother Chen know? Our sect has a chance to recommend talented disciples to the Inner City every five years.

We are a Sixth Grade sect, each time there are five quota spots for recommendation.

Just recently, we had one round of recommendation, and now in five years, we will have the next opportunity.

Just so, the rule in Canglan Immortal City is that any outsider cultivator must cultivate in a sect in the Outer City for at least five years to qualify for the Inner City Immortal Recruitment Conference.

Brother Chen, you just happen to have perfect timing with no delays!"

With a chuckle, Zhou Hou spoke eloquently.

He detailed various sect rules to Chen Xu, observing his expression at the same time.

Seeing Chen Xu with a calm face and composed demeanor, from just facial expressions alone, it was hard to guess what he was thinking inside.

Zhou Hou realized that this person is at least not frivolous.

He nodded secretly, then suddenly sighed and said: "But our sect currently faces some difficulties.

Since Master Su went to the Inner City, thoughts among Spirit Chefs in the Spirit Meal Hall have scattered somewhat.

It’s not that Master Su went to the Inner City and severed connections with us; that’s impossible.

Moreover, apart from Master Su, we have another Sixth Grade Spirit Chef, Master Hong.

However, Master Hong is getting older, often sick lately, and truly lacks the energy to daily discipline several brothers and sisters at the Spirit Meal Hall.

Their conflicts have become fiercer by the day.

Not for anything else, it’s just while vying to inherit Master Hong’s teachings!"

With such sighs, Zhou Hou’s eyes rolled, sneaking a glance at Chen Xu.

Sighing like this and revealing sect information clearly had a purpose.

It was both showcasing the resources in his sect to Chen Xu and testing if Chen Xu would be motivated to compete.

The conflicts among Spirit Chefs in the Spirit Meal Hall were really bothering disciples like Zhou Hou.

Now that Ye Ningzhen returned with a Spirit Chef, Zhou Hou immediately became thoughtful and expectant.

While speaking, they passed through numerous mountain paths.

Along the way, they saw waterfalls, streams, and ponds.

There were also martial arts grounds, Dao discussing platforms, libraries, and various large buildings like the Hearth Furnace.

Disciples were seen crossing paths occasionally on the road.

Thus showcasing the general atmosphere of Shenji Sect—

Though it may not have tens of thousands of disciples and be magnificent, it was also vibrant and lively.

Only most disciples were at Qi Cultivation stage, with few seen at Foundation Establishment stage.

Chen Xu, with keen perception, could easily see through the cultivation of ordinary Qi Cultivation disciples.

Thus they arrived at the Spirit Meal Hall.

The Spirit Meal Hall was built halfway up the mountain and had a large plaza at the front.

Following Ye Ningzhen and Zhou Hou, Chen Xu entered and was immediately met with a surge of fire.

Whoa, what intense heat!
