Universal Ascension: Starting with SSS-Level Talent

Chapter 34: I Don’t Want to Be Separated from You

Many of those present were here to recruit disciples.

Recruiting an outstanding disciple would bring generous rewards.

With Li Chengfeng’s talent, if they could take advantage of his lack of knowledge about the sects and coax him into their own sect, the rewards upon returning would be beyond extravagant.

Everyone rushed forward and they surrounded Li Chengfeng.

Everyone spoke at once:

“Brother Li Chengfeng, your skills are remarkable. How about joining our Kongtong Sect?”

“Brother Li, our Eastern Shaolin is in need of a talent like yours.”

“Young Master Li, such great skills. How about we step aside for a drink and have a good chat?”

“Brother Li, please join our Tremor Sword Manor?”

“Big Brother Li Chengfeng, I beg you to join our Wufeng Iron Spear Sect.”

…

Seeing Li Chengfeng’s talent, they were all fawning over him.

Some even went as far as to kneel before him.

Li Chengfeng sneered inwardly.

Did they think they could take advantage of him being a newcomer who knew nothing?

These small sects, he had never even heard of them.

As for Tremor Sword Manor, he already had most of the Micro Tremor Sword Technique, so why would he care?

The task was already completed.

Li Chengfeng had no intention of staying any longer.

With a leap, he soared five or six meters high.

He jumped out of the crowd.

“Young Master Li, don’t go~”

Everyone chased after him, but they couldn’t catch up.

They were frustrated:

“He’s only Level 11, and he’s not even wearing armor. How is he so fast?”

——

The first thing Li Chengfeng did upon arriving home was to take out the first part of the “Micro Tremor Sword Technique” ultimate skill he had just obtained.

This part contained a total of six ultimate skills.

They were:

【Sword Qi Tremor】, 【One Foot of Glimmer】, 【Flower Branch Tremor】, 【Hidden Cave Candlelight】, 【Resonant Crescent Wave】, and 【Dragon’s Might Tiger’s Tremor】.

Each one was an exceptional ultimate skill.

Li Chengfeng immediately began to study them.

There were six ultimate skills.

Trying to learn all of them at once would be too much to handle.

Learning them superficially would not be very useful either.

So he chose the simplest one, 【Sword Qi Tremor】, to practice.

With his SS-grade martial talent and additional progress bonuses, Li Chengfeng practiced 【Sword Qi Tremor】 for a day and reached Level 2 which was a decent level.

In the evening, an elder from the Xiaoyao Sect, Ding Cheng, sent a message.

Ding Cheng: I have confirmed with the sect leader that achieving a legendary feat can indeed increase your monthly salary by 100 million yuan.

Ding Cheng: Additionally, if you are willing to join our Xiaoyao Sect, you will receive an extra 1 million yuan as an entry reward.

Ding Cheng: What do you think?

Li Chengfeng was already interested in the Xiaoyao Sect.

Now, with the offer of a substantial entry bonus, his interest naturally grew even stronger.

Li Chengfeng: Send me the contract to take a look.

Joining a sect required signing a formal contract, and it was a Holy Covenant type of contract which had a particularly strong binding power.

Ding Cheng then sent the Xiaoyao Sect’s inner disciple contract to Li Chengfeng.

Shu Fuyao also received the news.

During dinner, Shu Fuyao mentioned to Li Chengfeng:

“The elder from the Xiaoyao Sect said that if we join, we will receive a 1 million yuan entry bonus.”

“What do you plan to do?”

Shu Fuyao nibbled on the end of her chopsticks:

“I’m fine with anything. I’ll follow your lead. If you join, I’ll join.”

“What if I don’t join?”

At this moment, Li Chengfeng was a bit hesitant.

Because the Xiaoyao Sect’s inner disciple contract was quite extreme.

It required a commitment of 50 years.

Once signed, you would serve the Xiaoyao Sect for 50 years.

Unless approved by the sect leader, you could not leave the sect.

Signing the inner disciple contract meant becoming a member of the Xiaoyao Sect.

Li Chengfeng had learned that almost all sects required a minimum of 50 years for inner disciple contracts.

Some could be as long as two to three hundred years, or even lifetime contracts.

There were also outer disciple contracts, with a minimum term of 2 years, but outer disciples were considered outsiders to the sect.

The benefits and treatment in all aspects were only half of what inner disciples received, and the daily working hours were doubled.

The martial arts that could be learned were also fewer than those available to inner disciples.

Outer disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect could not learn the “Northern Darkness Divine Skill.”

So being an outer disciple was meaningless to Li Chengfeng.

50 years was quite a long time. Therefore, Li Chengfeng hesitated.

Shu Fuyao firmly said:

“If you don’t join, I won’t join either.”

“Why? You don’t want the million yuan?”

Li Chengfeng was a bit curious.

A million yuan was a significant amount of money for her at the moment.

Shu Fuyao replied without hesitation:

“Because I don’t want to be separated from you.”

Li Chengfeng was taken aback, then looked at her with a gentle smile.

Those words had a sweet undertone.

Shu Fuyao couldn’t bear his intense gaze, her eyes darting away, her cheeks immediately flushed with two shades of red:

“What I mean is, if we’re separated, it will be inconvenient for our cultivation.”

However, when she mentioned cultivation, her face turned even redder.

Because during cultivation, they didn’t wear outer garments.

Li Chengfeng couldn’t help but feel a tremor in his heart.

This woman was exceptionally beautiful and captivating when she blushed.

For the past few days, Shu Fuyao had been staying at home, cultivating on her own.

She had finally completed her specialized training in wood attribute heavenly power and earth power.

From now on, her Qi would have two different characteristics.

One would be powerful and strong, and the other would be nourishing and restorative.

They stayed at home for a few days.

After dinner, she pulled Li Chengfeng out for a walk to get some fresh air.

As the days passed, some newcomers with less talent began to find alternative ways to make money.

They started small businesses.

Gradually, some vendor stalls appeared downstairs in the community.

They sold some novel trinkets sourced from other species’ markets.

Gradually, a night market formed.

In the evenings, everyone came out for a stroll.

The residents of the 100-story building usually stayed at home, making it hard to tell how many people lived there.

But once they came to the ground level, it became very lively.

Everyone was browsing the night market, the place bustling with people.

Suddenly, screams came from not far away.

“Ah…”

“Ah~ Run…”

Along with the screams came thudding sounds, as if heavy hammers were striking the ground.
