Chapter 19 Vivi’s Attention!

"I never expected that Weiyi would already surpass the likes of us at this age. Lingxu Cave Heaven has truly produced an unmatched prodigy!"

Mayun of Jade Cauldron Cave Heaven praised in heartfelt admiration.

This result came as a great shock to Ye Fan and the others.

They could never have imagined that among all the people present, the young and beautiful Weiyi would actually be the strongest one.

"Since we lost, there is nothing more to say. Lingxu Cave Heaven may choose two people first."

Liu Wanshan, the hot-tempered middle-aged man, said with a rather unsightly expression.

Hearing Liu Wanshan's words, several Elders on Lingxu Cave Heaven's side were naturally unwilling.

After all, everyone was well aware now that the Aptitude of Lu Chen and the other two clearly surpassed the others. Naturally, Lingxu Cave Heaven wanted to take all three of them into their fold.

However, the people from the other Cave Heavens were not fools and insisted that Lingxu Cave Heaven only pick two people first.

After some dispute, seeing that the remaining five Cave Heavens showed signs of wanting to join forces, Lingxu Cave Heaven had no choice but to agree.

Afterwards, the several Elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven cast their gazes towards Lu Chen and the other two, deliberating on which two to choose.

Just at this moment, Weiyi's expressive eyes faintly flickered with a rainbow-colored glow. She swept her gaze across Lu Chen and the other two one by one, then whispered softly to the leading Elder of Lingxu Cave Heaven.

After hearing Weiyi's words, the Elder first glanced at Ye Fan in astonishment, then his expression quickly turned into one of pity.

Without any further hesitation, the Elder walked straight up, pointed at Lu Chen and Pang Bo, and said:

"We want these two!"

Seeing that the three of them were about to be separated, both Ye Fan and Pang Bo grew somewhat anxious.

It was only after seeing Lu Chen's meaningful glance that they calmed down.

After Lingxu Cave Heaven made their selection, it was Mayun of Jade Cauldron Cave Heaven's turn to choose.

Beaming with joy, Mayun walked up to Ye Fan. However, the moment he placed his hand on Ye Fan's wrist, the smile on Mayun's face instantly vanished without a trace. He cast a startled and suspicious look at Ye Fan, then turned to look at the Elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven and said:

"No wonder you didn't choose him."

"I truly didn't expect that such a Physique would still appear in the present world!"

"What a pity, what a pity…"

Hearing Mayun's words, the people from the other Cave Heavens also curiously stepped forward and felt Ye Fan up and down.

"Bizarre!"

"This child possesses a powerful Physique and exceptionally vigorous Qi and blood, practically comparable to a flood dragon or elephant. Yet the divine wheel of life within his body is dormant, and his bitter sea is as hard as divine iron, steady as a monolith, and firmly unshakeable—making it completely impossible to open up."

Liying, an old woman from Golden Glow Cave Heaven, spoke with a puzzled expression.

"If you read more ancient texts, you would know that this is a peerless Physique through the ages—the peerless Sacred Body of the Human Race!"

Mayun said in a deep voice.

"The Human Race Sacred Body?"

"So that's how it is… No wonder…"

Upon hearing this, the others also reacted, speaking one after another with expressions of pity:

"What a pity!"

"If it were placed before the Desolate Era, this Sacred Body could be said to be the strongest Physique of our Human Race!"

"However, after the Desolate Era, the rules of heaven and earth underwent drastic changes. The path ahead for the Sacred Body has been severed, and it is no longer suitable to Cultivate, becoming a truly ruined Physique."

Listening to these people's evaluations, the moods of Ye Fan and the other classmates rose and fell like a rollercoaster.

Originally, when they heard that Ye Fan possessed a peerless Sacred Body through the ages, everyone cast envious gazes.

But when they heard that this Physique had now become a ruined Physique unable to practice cultivation, their hearts felt some sympathy. As for the likes of Liu Yunzhi, they even wore their schadenfreude openly on their faces.

After expressing his pity for a few sentences, Mayun also gave up on choosing Ye Fan and instead re-selected two other people.

Because of Lu Chen's changes, their group now had a total of twenty-five survivors.

Just like that, the six Cave Heavens took turns making selections, with each Cave Heaven choosing four people, ultimately leaving Ye Fan till the very end.

"Seniors, Ye Fan is my friend. I hope that you Seniors can also accept him into your Sect."

Lu Chen looked towards Weiyi and the several Elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven, speaking neither servilely nor overbearingly.

Pang Bo also chimed in with a tough tone:

"If you guys don't take Ye Fan, then I won't go with you either!"

"There are no Mortals within the blessed lands of the Cave Heavens. If he joins like this, it might not be a good thing for him."

An Elder of Lingxu Cave Heaven explained.

"With the two of us helping him out, it's still much better than him being alone in the Mortal world."

Lu Chen said.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, the several Elders of Lingxu Cave Heaven said no more and nodded, saying:

"Fine, then let him also enter Lingxu Cave Heaven."

Regarding this result, the other classmates were also happy for Ye Fan. Only Liu Yunzhi was deeply displeased, but he didn't dare to show it.

Ye Fan cast a grateful look at Lu Chen and Pang Bo without saying much more.

Between the three of them, there was no longer any need for polite pleasantries like saying thank you.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the other classmates and agreeing to meet again in the future, everyone parted ways.

In fact, deep down, many people knew that once they separated like this, it was hard to say whether they would ever meet again.

The people from the several Cave Heavens said nothing more and each brought their own people back to their respective Sects.

Standing on Weiyi's Flying Sword and feeling the lightning-fast speed, Lu Chen also felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

Flying on a sword, traversing the azure nether.

This was a scene that previously would only appear in dreams, yet now it had truly been realized. How could Lu Chen not be excited?

Riding a rainbow and speeding all the way, the group finally stopped in front of an immortal mountain.

Passing through the mountain gate all the way and arriving deep within the immortal mountain, they finally reached Lingxu Cave Heaven.

After entering the Cave Heaven, Lu Chen and the other two were led by Weiyi to a dwelling.

The other two classmates who were chosen were arranged elsewhere by other Elders.

"The three Junior Brothers may temporarily stay here."

"Tomorrow, someone will come to teach you the introductory methods to Cultivate."

Weiyi's vermilion lips parted slightly, and her voice was soft, sweet, and crisp. Her gaze swept past Pang Bo and Ye Fan, finally lingering on Lu Chen for a moment, before turning around and drifting away like a wisp of breeze.

After Weiyi left, Pang Bo leaned close to Lu Chen and said with a wink:

"Lu Chen, I think this Fairy Weiyi seems to have feelings for you!"

"It's not like before here; we must be more cautious in our words and actions."

"If your words are heard by others from Lingxu Cave Heaven, you won't have a good end."

Lu Chen reminded him.

"Got it!"

"But I really am not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, ask Yezi—Fairy Weiyi's gaze towards you is clearly different!"

"Indeed, I noticed it too."

Ye Fan also joined in the joke.

As the three of them spoke, they walked into the house.
