I Have A Disciple Simulator

Although ultimately only a few can learn the Sacred Tier Sword Technique, even if one joins Thousand Swords Manor, the result is the same. Only true geniuses have the opportunity to learn, and can actually learn, the Sacred Tier Sword Technique.

Otherwise, to ordinary cultivators, the Sacred Tier Sword Technique seems abstruse and incomprehensible; even if they wish to learn it, they may not be able to grasp the basics and might even leak Lu Changsheng's self-created Sacred Tier Sword Technique.

Lu Changsheng's fifth disciple, Ji Xuan, saw that Lu Changsheng was preparing for ascension to the Immortal Realm and had no energy to train disciples again, so she took the initiative and said, "I am the fifth disciple of Qingyun Peak, and I plan to take you as my disciple. Are you willing?"

Ji Xuan, with the Demon God Physique, ruled over the demons in Huang State. Once she spoke, other Mount Shu Elders found it inappropriate to compete with Ji Xuan for disciples.

Luo Xintang was rather disappointed at first, but since Lu Changsheng did not take on disciples himself, his direct disciples did. Thus, Luo Xintang could still join Qingyun Peak.

Mount Shu's Qingyun Peak had already become the most famous branch in Mount Shu.

"Master above, please accept your disciple Luo Xintang's bow."

Luo Xintang knelt down and performed the disciple salute, officially taking Ji Xuan as her master.

"My six direct disciples all possess the qualifications to ascend to the Immortal Realm. That you can become a disciple of my fifth disciple is your honor; do not become arrogant or complacent."

Lu Changsheng discovered that his own disciples had the qualifications to take on disciples themselves and couldn't help but sigh that time flies, meanwhile reminding Luo Xintang, who possessed the Thousand Poison Body, not to be arrogant.

The Thousand Poison Body is a fairly decent special physique, but Lu Changsheng's six disciples each have the Everlasting Verdant Body, Martial King Divine Physique, Body of the Literary Sage, Pure Yang Body, Demon God Physique, and Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Physique, all of which are superior to the Thousand Poison Body.

Lu Changsheng had also seen other special physiques like the Innate Taoist Body, Lingwa Holy Body, Nirvana Phoenix Body, and Spirit Sword Physique.

At the Zhong Zhou conference, Lu Changsheng defeated all manner of experts with great accomplishment in special physiques. The young geniuses, revered as the pride of the heavens in their respective states, didn't seem like much in Lu Changsheng's eyes.

After Ji Xuan, the fifth disciple of Qingyun Peak, took on Luo Xintang as her disciple, the disciple recruitment ceremony continued.

The Supreme Elders, like Li Changye and Murong Shi, seeing one exceptional talent emerge after another at Mount Shu's disciple recruitment ceremony, could not hold back and each recruited disciples for themselves.

Even Elder Zhao Wuyan of Zhiyue Peak managed to pick up several exceptional geniuses.

This goes to show that Lu Changsheng's victory at the Zhong Zhou conference really made Mount Shu renowned, attracting swarms of exceptional talents from all over, enabling even Zhao Wuyan, who had only recently stepped into the Void Refinement Realm, to select several promising candidates.

The recruitment ceremony had several hundred thousand applicants, and after one day of selection, only a fraction of the candidates were chosen.

The next day, the recruitment ceremony continued.

"Li Jianfei, fourth level of Qi Transformation Realm, Root Bone superior, Comprehension superior, Qi Destiny superior, possesses a special physique — the Spirit Sword Physique."

"The Spirit Sword Physique?"

"Another Spirit Sword Physique has appeared?"

A youth carrying a longsword stood in front of the Gallbladder Mirror for the aptitude test, and as the mirror shone with golden light, three golden ancient characters of Spirit Sword Physique appeared on the bright mirror surface.

The Spirit Sword Physique is known as the most suitable special physique for the Sword Dao.

Penglai Fairy and Sun Jian, these Sword Dao powerhouses, they all have the Spirit Sword Physique.

Full of youthful vigor, Li Jianfei stood upright, chest out and head held high, his gaze sharp as he looked towards Lu Changsheng seated at the center of Mount Shu's grand hall.

Lu Changsheng, creator of the Sacred Tier Sword Technique, would surely value a young Spirit Sword Physique talent.

Perhaps Lu Changsheng would not fancy the Thousand Poison Body, a more unconventional special physique, but he would certainly take a second look at his Spirit Sword Physique.

However, Lu Changsheng remained unmoved.

So what if it's a Spirit Sword Physique?

His eldest disciple Li Changye's direct disciple, Xiao Xiangdao is a Spirit Sword Physique.

Even Sun Jian, the owner of Thousand Swords Manor, who has great accomplishment in Spirit Sword Physique, still lost to Lu Changsheng, who is not a Spirit Sword Physique.

"Master, your disciple would like to recruit this person to our Qingyun Peak for cultivation."

After pondering for a moment, Lin Qingzhi, the chief disciple of Qingyun Peak, decided to take Li Jianfei as his direct disciple.

"Hmm."

Lu Changsheng agreed.

Once Lu Changsheng ascended to the Immortal Realm, Lin Qingzhi would take over the control of Qingyun Peak, and Lin Qingzhi would also need to take in disciples, pass on cultivation techniques, and help Lin Qingzhi handle some sundry matters.

"I am Lin Qingzhi, the head disciple of Qingyun Peak, and I plan to take you as my disciple. Would you be willing?"

Originally, other Mount Shu Elders had intentions of taking Li Jianfei as their direct disciple, but once the head disciple of Qingyun Peak, Lin Qingzhi, spoke up, everyone respectfully stepped back.

Sect Leader Lu Changsheng appeared to disdain having too many disciples and showed no interest in taking more, so no one would compete with Lin Qingzhi for disciples if Lin Qingzhi took them in on behalf of Lu Changsheng.

Moreover, Lin Qingzhi was now an eighth-tier cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm, not far from reaching the Unity Realm!

In all of Mount Shu, there were fewer than ten people with a higher realm than Lin Qingzhi.

"This disciple is willing!"

Li Jianfei hurriedly accepted the offer.

Though he didn't know why, even a peerless genius with the Spirit Sword Physique didn't seem to catch the eye of Mount Shu's Sect Leader Lu Changsheng, but since he was the top disciple of Lu Changsheng taking in disciples, surely it couldn't be too different from being taken in directly by Lu Changsheng himself, right?

However, what Li Jianfei didn't know was that there was a clear difference between being directly taken in as a disciple by Lu Changsheng and being taken in by Lin Qingzhi on Lu Changsheng's behalf, which was that he couldn't receive the Power-infusing Initiation from Lu Changsheng and could only cultivate slowly.

Lu Changsheng had reached the ninth tier of the Unity Realm and was continuously solidifying his realm, preparing to transcend the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to the Immortal Realm, so he had no time to care for more disciples.

Lu Qinglian, Shen Xiaoyao, Mo Huazhi, and Chen Yao also recruited several disciples each, expanding the scale of Qingyun Peak's disciples.

These disciples who joined Qingyun Peak were all peerless talents from various regions, including body temperers, Confucian Dao practitioners, and demon race cultivators.

From a single person, Lu Changsheng, Qingyun Peak had grown to more than a dozen people, each disciple a peerless talent.

This was the legacy Lu Changsheng left for Mount Shu.

Even if Lu Changsheng ascended to the Immortal Realm, Qingyun Peak could continue cultivating peerless talents for Mount Shu, ensuring that for thousands, even tens of thousands of years, Mount Shu would remain one of the strongest sects in this realm.

"Damn it, Lin Qingzhi's cultivation has actually surpassed my master's, and the disciple he has taken is also a Spirit Sword Physique like me..."

Xiao Xiangdao was gnashing his teeth.

Lin Qingzhi's cultivation speed was simply alarming, having already surpassed Li Changye.

Xiao Xiangdao and Lin Qingzhi were from the same generation of Mount Shu disciples. At that time, Xiao Xiangdao's cultivation level was significantly higher than that of Lin Qingzhi, but in such a short period, Lin Qingzhi was already preparing to break through to the Unity Realm, while Xiao Xiangdao was still in the Dao Palace Realm.

If this trend continued, once Lu Changsheng ascended to the Immortal Realm, Lin Qingzhi would very likely replace him, becoming the 29th generation Sect Leader of Mount Shu, controlling it for thousands of years.

Xiao Xiangdao couldn't accept the thought of his former follower surpassing him in status.

Furthermore, the fact that Lin Qingzhi had taken on a disciple with a Spirit Sword Physique, just like Xiao Xiangdao, made it even harder for him to accept.

However, Xiao Xiangdao was helpless to do anything about it.

With his current level of cultivation, there was a huge gap between him and Lin Qingzhi, who could defeat him with merely one sword strike.

Xiao Xiangdao clenched his fists tightly: "I refuse to accept such a defeat to Lin Qingzhi. The road to cultivation is long and if, in the end, we can both ask about the path to Longevity, then it is hard to say who will win or lose."

The Mount Shu disciple recruitment ceremony went on for a full ten days before it concluded.

Because there were so many peerless geniuses participating in the ceremony, Mount Shu exceptionally took in thirty thousand disciples this time, including three thousand inner sect disciples.

This was still with the consideration of Mount Shu's resources being limited, as recruiting even more disciples could actually impede their cultivation.

"Changsheng, seeing as how you did not take in a single disciple at this recruitment ceremony, it seems you are planning to ascend to the Immortal Realm in the near future," said the Taiyuan True Person, perceiving Lu Changsheng's intentions.

"Hmm," Lu Changsheng had nothing to hide from the Taiyuan True Person, "But before ascending to the Immortal Realm, I want to set a trap to completely eradicate the heretic cultivators from the Immortal Realm and potential enemies coveting Mount Shu's cultivation techniques, to eliminate future troubles once and for all, so that after my ascension, Mount Shu will not be left unguarded."

Lu Changsheng's eyes became sharp; it was time to set the stage, to catch all enemies in one fell swoop before his ascension.
