Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System-Chapter 64 Elder Dongmei
In the evening Inner sect hall, the sect master was sitting on the throne. Around him were seated nine elders. The two elders who visited the outer sect tournament with the sect master were also in this group. These nine elders were the real strength of the Sky Soaring Sect. They made all the decisions of the sect. They were also known as core elders.
Six elders present were responsible for the inner sect Discipline hall, Pill hall, Treasure Hall, Weapons hall, Beast Hall, and martial Hall. The two elders who visited the outer sect tournament of the sect were the sect protectors.
The last elder was the most senior in this group. He was known as elder Dongmei, and he was the most respected and senior elder of the sect. He sat closest to the sect master, almost at an equal position, a dark hood covering his head, leaving only his mouth and chin visible. He had a stern expression on his face, and his eyes were sharp and alert. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
Elder Dongmei looked at the sect master and spoke, "Zhu Xin, what's so important that you had to call the core elders meeting?"
Sect master spoke, "As you all know, I recently accepted a new personal disciple named Han Cai. I accepted him because I found him very talented in sword technique. He was able to learn crane sword style to level 4 in two years while cultivating Qi condensation to level 2 simultaneously, and he is just 12 years old. Also, when I saw him supporting his friend in the outer sect arena even though he did not need to, I really admired his character."
Elder Dongmei nodded. "That's a very good seed."
Sect master continued, "A few days ago, when I brought him to the inner sect, I told him he could go to the inner core library and select a better cultivation method and skills of his liking. Elder Guang informed me that Han Cai selected Celestial Ascension Technique for cultivation and four other skill techniques."
All the elders shook their heads in disapproval. They knew this cultivation technique, and all of them were talented disciples of the sky-soaring sect in the past. They had tried this technique in greediness at one point or another but failed miserably. Some even lost their cultivation heart because of failure, and it took them years to recover their temperaments.
Sect master continued, "I was displeased with his choice as you know that technique is impossible to cultivate. I thought he would make smart choices. Selecting four skills at once will also hamper his cultivation. I called him to the inner hall and guide him to change his mind regarding the cultivation technique."
After that Sect master sighed
Eldest Dongmei spoke, "Zhu Xin, I have known you since you were a kid. He is just 12 years old. You need to have patience in guiding him. You have to wait for him to fail a few times before he might mature."
This is what almost every ambitious disciple goes through. They needed some setbacks to understand their limitations. Whenever a talented disciple joins the sect, they think they will cover the sky with one hand. After facing some setbacks, they realize there is a limit to their talent, and the sky is vaster than they could imagine. Elder Dongmei understood this, so he did not find anything out of the norm.
Sect master shook his head and spoke, "This is what I thought too. So I told him to change his cultivation method. But it turned out I was the one wrong here. It appears that this technique is very compatible with him. Han Cai has cultivated the Celestial Ascension Technique. He was able to manipulate celestial qi in his dantian. If that was not surprising enough, He has cultivated it to level 3 Qi condensation. A week ago he was level 2 qi condensation which means this technique is very compatible with him."
Hearing this, all the elders felt a shiver down their spine. Elder Dongmei had goosebumps. He stood up from his chair. There was an expression of disbelief on his face. You could see he was trying to cope with what he heard. It took Elder Dongmei some time to calm down and sit back in his chair.
Sect master continued, "I even considered if he was some Immortal reborn. But if he was reborn immortal, the larger sects in the central continent would have taken him away long ago. They can easily divine the birth of immortals."
Elder Dongmei nodded. Everyone sat there in deep thought for a while
Finally, Elder Dongmei spoke, "It means his affinity is with the space element."
When elder Dongmei said this, all the elders sitting had a look that conveyed this could not be real. Even Elder Dongmei could not believe that he spoke these words.
The elder of the treasure hall voiced the doubt of all sitting elders "Doesn't element affinity awakens only when one reaches foundation establishment?"
