Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s
Chapter 969 - 967, Innate Spiritual Body

Chapter 969: 967, Innate Spiritual Body

In the Sea Realm, there are six great cities. Apart from the Top Ten Sects, there are over a thousand other various sects, families, and academies, not to mention the Loose Cultivators who will also participate in the selection competition. Out of the twenty disciples from their sect, how many will remain within the top one thousand? Now that this new junior brother has arrived with such powerful abilities, perhaps their sect will obtain a few additional spots because of him.

There are rules for the competition; aside from the top one thousand spots that are earned through strength, additional rewards are given to the first, second, and third places regardless of whether they are individuals, sects, families, or academies.

The winner of the first place in the competition gets five spots and can choose any five people to be among the top one thousand. The second place gets three spots, and the third place gets one spot.

If that junior brother is strong enough to win first place, their sect would effectively gain five additional spots. Moreover, it would be extremely gratifying to their sect to stand out among the various sects, families, and academies—it would indeed be a tremendous accomplishment.

"But I really can’t accept this!" He Linping gritted his teeth in anger. As the head senior brother of the Liangyi Sect, being slapped away twice in front of all the disciples was too much to bear. How could he continue to lead and command respect from them?

"There’s no use being upset about it. For now, we can only hope that the junior brother will become even stronger and stand out in the competition," they responded.

"Head senior brother, you should try to let it go," the two of them persuaded. They understood how the head senior brother felt, but as the new junior brother was now a fellow sect member, there was no point in creating an irreparable rift with him.

"I’m going to cultivate," He Linping said brusquely and headed to his room. When the selection competition came, he would naturally see Lu Hanmo’s true strength.

Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu returned to their room, set up a Formation, and took out the two babies from the space. They had been cultivating all these days and had not had the time to look after the babies.

"You’ve both advanced to Nascent Soul?" Seeing the babies’ cultivation, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were both somewhat incredulous. Advancing to Nascent Soul normally requires passing the Heavenly Tribulation, and they were certain that the two babies had not gone through it.

"Mommy, we also benefited from the Immortal Spirit Energy this time," said the little sister in her milky voice. She originally thought that she and her brother could only absorb Spiritual Energy from Spirit Stones. Seeing so much Immortal Spirit Energy rushing into the space, she couldn’t help but try secretly and to her surprise, she could absorb it. She turned to tell her brother only to find that he was already doing it.

Immortal Spirit Energy is incomparable to ordinary Spiritual Energy. Just after absorbing a little bit, they had advanced. Perhaps because they were in the space, no Heavenly Tribulation had descended.

"My sister and I are now at Mid Stage Nascent Soul cultivation level," announced the little brother happily.

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were full of confusion. Xiao Qing had previously said that to cultivate with Immortal Spirit Energy in the Immortal Realm, one must go through the Spiritual Energy Conversion Room in the Ascension Hall to convert their inner Spiritual Power into Immortal Spirit Energy. Why, then, could the babies cultivate with Immortal Spirit Energy?

"Master, the young masters are born with Innate Spiritual Bodies. In the early stages, if they absorb some Immortal Spirit Energy, there is no need for a conversion through the Spiritual Energy Conversion Room," Xiao Qing’s voice rang in Luo Shu’s consciousness.

"What is an Innate Spiritual Body?" Luo Shu asked excitedly. Although she didn’t understand, it must be something positive.

"An Innate Spiritual Body is formed when the embryo starts to be nurtured by Spiritual Energy. Therefore, the young masters were born as Cultivators. This also means that the young masters have a higher aptitude than the master. Although the young masters have not yet reached the stage of Becoming an Immortal, absorbing some Immortal Spirit Energy appropriately can gradually enhance their constitution. When they reach the stage of Becoming an Immortal, they won’t need to go through the Ascension Hall," explained Xiao Qing.

Luo Shu nodded in understanding and relayed Xiao Qing’s explanation to Lu Hanmo.

"So it seems, with the babies’ cultivation speed, they should be able to become immortals very soon," Lu Hanmo said happily. Thinking that his babies might become immortals while still infants, his heart swelled with pride. What parent doesn’t wish for their children to grow up extraordinary?

"You are indeed amazing, Mommy is truly proud of you," Luo Shu happily kissed the babies’ faces. When the day comes for her and Hanmo to help Xiao Qing take her revenge, and if by then the babies have become immortals, she can leave them in a safe place without worries, ensuring their safety. Once they have the strength, they can protect themselves.

Xun Haotian and the other two landed on the Yin Yang Stone and started walking towards the first ring of the stone.

They found that not only had the Immortal Spirit Energy thinned considerably here, but the pressure and resistance had also decreased a lot, which allowed the three of them to reach the first ring of the Yin Yang Stone with ease.

After a careful inspection, Xun Haotian shook his head with a wry smile, "No wonder the Immortal Spirit Energy has become so sparse; those two little ones have absorbed more than half of the Immortal Spirit Vein below."

"Luckily, the Immortal Spirit Vein can regenerate, but we will have unstable days in terms of Spiritual Energy for a while," Ouyang Hai said with a resigned smile.

"They are only in the Primary Stage of Absolute Immortal now, it is hard to say whether they will stand out in the selection competition," Elder Void said worriedly. Many of the disciples from the major sects are already at the Absolute Immortal Stage. Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu have only just advanced to Absolute Immortal, and defeating those disciples will be challenging.

"It might not be a bad thing that they don’t go to the Middle Plane," Xun Haotian said with a smile. Between sects, there is a grand contest every three years, if Lu Hanmo and his wife don’t get to go to the Middle Plane this time, with their rate of cultivation, in next year’s sect contest, who would be a match for this couple?

Three days flew by in an instant, and soon it was the day of the selection competition.

Early in the morning, Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo left their room, planning to join the other eighteen disciples at the Martial Arts Arena.

"Junior Brother! Junior Sister!"

"Junior Brother! Junior Sister! Good morning!" Seeing Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo come out, many disciples greeted them warmly. Everyone is respectful to the strong.

"Hello everyone!" Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo responded to everyone. Whatever the reason for the change in people’s attitudes toward them, since they were greeted, it would be rude to ignore them.

"Junior Brother! Junior Sister! This way." When they saw Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu coming to the Martial Arts Arena, a disciple waved at them. Initially, they intended to invite Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu to the Martial Arts Arena, but due to the face of the eldest senior brother, they had to dismiss that thought.

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo walked forward and stood with the eighteen participating disciples. Among these eighteen, four were familiar to them; one was the senior sister who delivered their sect uniforms, and the other three were the individuals who had blocked their way the other day.

Apart from He Linping, everyone smiled and nodded at Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo in greeting.

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo also nodded back in response.
