Mortal: I, the Holy Son of Yao Guang, have rebuilt my Chaotic Body.

Chapter 22 Light Spirit Root

"Hmph, is it really necessary for you to lose your composure like this? No matter how rare this Light Spiritual Root is, it's still just a Different Spiritual Root. How can it compare to a Heavenly Spiritual Root? Besides, which sect of ours doesn't have a few disciples with Different Spiritual Roots?"

The burly man from the Giant Sword Sect looked at his fellow cultivators around him, who were scrambling around, their faces flushed with anger, and couldn't help but curl his lip. They were all at the Core Formation stage, yet they didn't know how to restrain themselves in front of the juniors.

"Your Giant Sword Sect is all male cultivators, of course you wouldn't understand the true wonders of this Light Spirit Root," the middle-aged woman from the Blade Transformation Valley retorted.

"Brother, you don't understand." The old man from Spirit Beast Mountain stroked his beard, his eyes gleaming.

"According to ancient records, the most amazing thing about this light spiritual root is that male cultivators who possess this spiritual root are the world's top dual cultivation partners. Any female cultivator who cultivates with him can greatly improve her own cultivation speed. Even if the female cultivator's aptitude is mediocre, she can still have a cultivation speed comparable to that of a heavenly spiritual root."

The longing in Nangong Wan's eyes deepened as she added:

"If we further supplement this with the supreme dual cultivation secret technique of my Hidden Moon Sect, the yin and yang will be in harmony, and the magical power cultivated by both men and women will be incomparably pure. In terms of breaking through the bottleneck after the formation of the core, even a heavenly spiritual root cannot compare with it."

Her voice was very loud, as if she was afraid Yao Guang wouldn't hear her.

Upon hearing this, the crowd below erupted in cheers, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy, while the female cultivators' eyes gleamed with longing.

"Young friend, please wait for me a moment, don't rush to make a choice."

The Core Formation cultivator from Yellow Maple Valley, who was also the patriarch of the Chen family, seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly appeared in a yellow light and flew out of the hall as fast as lightning, with an anxious yet joyful expression on his face.

Not long after, the streak of light flew back and stopped abruptly beside Yao Guang. The light dissipated, revealing the Chen family patriarch and a beautiful young woman with bright eyes and white teeth, who was none other than Chen Qiaoqian.

As soon as Chen Qiaoqian landed, she fixed her gaze on Yao Guang, her eyes filled with affection and overflowing with joy.

Yao Guang returned a gentle smile, and their eyes met, exchanging glances and deep affection.

"There's hope!" The Chen family patriarch glanced around and saw the two exchanging glances. He was overjoyed and clapped his hands and laughed. He placed his hands on Yao Guang and Chen Qiaoqian's shoulders respectively, feeling that he had never been so happy in his life.

"Hahaha, young friend, I see that you and this young man from my Chen family are a perfect match, a match made in heaven. Why not join my Chen family of Huangfeng Valley? I promise you that as long as you become my Chen family's son-in-law, I will devote the entire clan's resources to nurturing you both!"

Chen Qiaoqian's face flushed, and her beautiful eyes were full of smiles. Her lover was so highly regarded by the ancestor, so his future path to immortality would surely be smooth sailing.

Yao Guang bowed to the Chen family patriarch and said with a smile, "Thank you, patriarch..."

He had already planned to join Yellow Maple Valley and was about to agree when he was interrupted by a clear, crisp voice.

"Please wait, young master!"

Yao Guang turned to look at Nangong Wan, and saw her staring intently at him, her eyes filled with resentment and urgency.

"Our Hidden Moon Sect has a sacred place for inheritance called 'Gathering Sun Cave'. This place was built by our sect's predecessors with a hundred years of painstaking effort. It gathers the purest Yang energy extracted from the sun for hundreds of years. It is an unparalleled treasure for cultivators who practice Yang attribute techniques."

Seeing the seriousness in Yao Guang's eyes, Nangong Wan said with temptation and confidence, "With your rare Light Spirit Root physique, if you can absorb the ultimate Yang power to cultivate, you will surely make great progress every day."

"There really is such a place?" Yao Guang was shocked and overjoyed. He looked at Nangong Wan and the other Core Formation Ancestors to confirm whether what he said was true.

The old Taoist from Qingxu Sect stroked his beard and nodded: "Young friend, what she said is indeed correct. However, the pure yang light gathered in that place is as scorching as a prison. Without a strong will and physique, even we Core Formation cultivators cannot endure it for long."

Unable to hide his excitement, Yao Guang said loudly to Nangong Wan without hesitation, "Thank you for informing me, senior. I, Yao Guang, am willing to become a disciple of the Hidden Moon Sect."

The reason he changed his mind was that the place where pure Yang energy gathered allowed him to cultivate the supreme technique of the Yao Guang Holy Land from his previous life—the "Primordial Holy Light Technique"!

Once this technique is mastered, it will illuminate the heavens, purify all directions, and render all defensive techniques invulnerable while breaking all offensive techniques.

In his previous life, he was the holy son of the Yao Guang Holy Land, and he had cultivated this unique skill to an unparalleled level.

However, this supernatural power can only be cultivated in an environment filled with pure Yang energy. Since transmigrating to the "mortal" world, he had been secretly searching for such a place, and unexpectedly found it in the Hidden Moon Sect.

Therefore, he decided to join the Hidden Moon Sect in order to cultivate the Holy Light Technique.

"What?! Kid, you..." The Chen family patriarch was furious when his attempt was thwarted at the last minute, his face turning from red to green.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Chen Qiaoqian's face, and Yao Guang immediately noticed her emotion and gave her a comforting look.

When Chen Qiaoqian met his gaze, her sense of loss quickly faded, leaving only absolute trust and support for Yao Guang. Therefore, she was genuinely happy that Brother Yao had obtained this opportunity.

"Brother Chen, you flatter me." Nangong Wan breathed a sigh of relief, a smile curving her lips beneath her veil, her voice filled with obvious pride and joy.

"Yao Guang, come with me." She no longer looked at the remaining test subjects in the hall. With a flick of her sleeve, a soft pink light enveloped Yao Guang, and she carried him away on a flying light, disappearing from the Spirit Testing Hall in the blink of an eye.

Having recruited such a rare disciple for the sect, a feat that is only seen once every tens of thousands of years, she has already accomplished a great service. Naturally, she has lost interest in others, and her only thought is to escort Yao Guang safely back to the Hidden Moon Sect as soon as possible.

This earth-shattering news spread like wildfire, sweeping across the entire Tianwu Terrace long before the Ascension Ceremony had even ended, and then spreading even faster throughout the entire Yue Kingdom and beyond.

……

The Tianyue Mountains are towering high, shrouded in clouds and mist, with a cluster of peaks. The highest and steepest peak stands majestically on its north side, as if cleaved by a sharp axe, with a waterfall cascading down from its summit like a white ribbon.

Yao Guang was aboard a large ship carved from flawless green jade. The ship's outer walls were decorated with dragons and phoenixes, reflecting a dazzling golden light under the sunlight. A huge white protective shield enveloped the ship, and the shield was covered with restrictive runes.

This ship is the iconic flying artifact of the Hidden Moon Sect – the "Heavenly Moon Divine Boat".

Yao Guang stood on the bow deck, admiring the magnificent and majestic scenery along the way.

Escorted by Nangong Wan and other disciples of the Yanyue Sect, after several days of continuous flight, they finally arrived at the Tianyue Mountain Range where the Yanyue Sect's mountain gate was located.

During the flight, the disciples of the Hidden Moon Sect who accompanied him were extremely curious about him, surrounding him with questions. Yao Guang responded with a smile, gentle and refined, exuding extraordinary charm in every gesture, which quickly won the favor of everyone. The female cultivators, in particular, had stars in their eyes and frequently flirted with him.

During the conversation, Yao Guang also learned about the overall situation of the Hidden Moon Sect.

Suddenly, the Shenzhou spacecraft swooped down, the clouds dispersed, the wind howled, and a majestic and towering mountain range came into view.

Nangong Wan's cool voice rang out at the opportune moment: "We've arrived."
