Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard”

Chapter 439: Recruiting Lin Feng

"You're the freak! We two only have this kind of strength thanks to our master's guidance. Compared to you, we're still a bit lacking!"

Zhou Hao declared with heroic spirit.

Lin Feng knew his own situation best. He relied on his Kill Count to cheat, simultaneously improving several types of rules, which allowed him to kill opponents above his level.

But he had just observed Zhou Hao and Ye Fan. Both of them relied on just one or two types of rules to easily kill others. They were truly too formidable.

He then looked at the top of their heads.

[Patriarch's True Disciple] *2!

These two were actually both the Patriarch's True Disciples!

Lin Feng's eyes widened. "You two are actually the Patriarch's True Disciples?"

Zhou Hao laughed heartily. "Shocked, right? I was spotted by the Patriarch when I was still at the Earth Immortal Stage. I absorbed a bit of resources and casually broke through to the Wuji Realm! Then, after listening to a single lecture on the Dao, my cultivation broke through to the late-stage Wuji Realm! We were afraid our cultivation was rising too fast, so we came out to gain some experience!"

He, at least, needed to kill and accumulate Kill Count. This guy seemed to be able to improve just by lying around effortlessly.

Zhou Hao said with a chuckle, "Brother, your strength is good, your realm is also decent. I can recommend you to become Master's Nominal Disciple. Once you get some resources then, your strength will also advance by leaps and bounds! You should know, even the Primordial Emperor could only become a Nominal Disciple!"

Lin Feng was surprised. "We've only met once, and you already want to recommend me?"

"Hahaha, I've heard of your reputation, I've seen your history. Your natural talent is sufficient! If my recommendation succeeds, I'll also benefit, and not a small benefit at that! So, how about it? Want to consider it?"

Lin Feng fell into deep thought.

Once before, Fairy Su Li had given him a chance to take the Seven Stars Patriarch as his master. It was just that back then, he didn't know how powerful the Seven Stars Patriarch was, so he didn't pay it much mind.

Now that he knew the other party was so powerful, becoming his disciple wouldn't be a loss! With a Dao Lord's help, his future possibility of breaking through to Dao Lord would also be greater.

"I am naturally willing, but will the Patriarch agree?" Lin Feng asked.

He always felt this matter was too hasty.

Just meeting once and already preparing to recommend him to become the Patriarch's Nominal Disciple? It felt a bit too straightforward!

"Haha! Don't you worry! Master is very easy to talk to!" Zhou Hao laughed loudly.

Beside him, Ye Fan also looked at Zhou Hao in shock, feeling utterly speechless at his words. When he met Su Yuan, it felt rather like a mouse meeting a tiger. This Zhou Hao, however, was thick-skinned, actually daring to speak so bluntly.

Zhou Hao, right in front of the two of them, contacted the Seven Stars Patriarch.

Above Zhou Hao's head, a blurry human figure materialized out of thin air.

"Little Hao, what is the matter?" Su Yuan asked calmly.

"Master, I've come across a promising seedling. I feel he is very suitable to be your Nominal Disciple!"

Zhou Hao pointed at Lin Feng. "It's him! He just broke through in the heat of battle, then, with late-stage strength, fought alone against nine peak Wuji Realm experts without being defeated, and in the end even fought one against three and killed one! His talent is truly too strong!"

Su Yuan calmly looked at Lin Feng and asked, "Are you willing to take This Sovereign as your master?"

Without another word, Lin Feng knelt down and prostrated himself. "Please, Master, accept me as your disciple!"

The corner of Su Yuan's mouth lifted. "Since it is so, you are This Sovereign's sixth True Disciple!"

Hearing this, Lin Feng was stunned.

Zhou Hao quickly gave him a meaningful look!

"Yes, disciple pays respects to Master!" Lin Feng hurriedly performed a grand bow.

When Lin Feng raised his head to look at Su Yuan again, the originally blurry face had become clear.

Then Lin Feng froze once more. This time, he was truly dumbfounded. His mouth hung open, his eyes wide and round. He opened his mouth, wanting to utter the two words "Su Yuan," but quickly realized the problem and didn't say them out loud.

Su Yuan smiled. "Don't recognize me anymore?"

Lin Feng's expression was complex. "This disciple was blind before. Please, Master, do not hold it against me!"

Su Yuan shook his head with a smile. "I originally had no intention of accepting you as a disciple. It's just that since fate has brought us together, accepting you as a disciple isn't a big deal. It's just that I might have to exchange a move with someone."

Lin Feng was stunned.

He didn't understand Su Yuan's meaning.

Suddenly, he felt something strange about his surroundings.

He didn't know when, but he had already appeared within a piece of void. Zhou Hao and Ye Fan, who were beside him earlier, had already disappeared without a trace.

And in front of him, not only did Su Yuan's figure appear, but also another unfamiliar, gaunt, middle-aged figure.

"Lord of the Nine Nether!" Su Yuan said softly.

"Lord of the Nine Stars! Seven Stars Dao Sovereign!" Netherdark looked at Su Yuan indifferently. "This is my prey!"

Su Yuan smiled calmly. "He was the disciple I had my eye on from the very beginning!"

The words of the two made cold sweat stream down Lin Feng's forehead.

Two super existences had been eyeing him for who knows how long, and he actually secretly thought he was hiding well!

The Lord of the Nine Nether narrowed his eyes slightly. From Su Yuan's words, he discerned some meaning. It seemed this Lin Feng was truly someone the other party had discovered first!

"In the competition for Dao Lords, we have always been bystanders placing pieces on the board. You personally stepping onto the field breaks the rules. If I tell others, you have no justification!" the Lord of the Nine Nether said faintly.

Su Yuan said calmly, "In my view, everything depends on strength to have the final say. Lin Feng himself is a disciple of the Seven Stars Sect, a member of This Sovereign's forces. No matter what, you have no justification to speak of! Since that's the case, then show your strength. Only strength surpassing mine qualifies you to speak of competition again!"

"Very well. It seems you are very confident in yourself."

The Lord of the Nine Nether's gaze grew increasingly profound.

Lin Feng's heart filled with terror. If he were caught in the crossfire of a battle between two Dao Lords, wouldn't he perish on the spot?

As if seeing through his thoughts.

Su Yuan said, "Don't worry, you are very safe. Just watch the battle from the side. How much you can learn depends on yourself!"

Only then did Lin Feng discover that two layers of barriers surrounded his body. One was a starry barrier, the other a netherdark barrier. The two were superimposed upon each other, protecting his safety while also restricting his movement!

This was also the reason Su Yuan and the other needed to fight. Because neither could take Lin Feng away without harming him.

Su Yuan and the Lord of the Nine Nether soon began to fight.

Lin Feng nervously looked towards the battlefield. Then he saw a miraculous scene appear within this endless void.

The void was divided into six parts!

Each part seemed to occupy the entire void, yet they were clearly demarcated. Some contained a dark, profound depth within, some contained endless Calamity Energy, and some contained endless starlight.

Six different dimensions were all superimposed together, then completely vanished from sight.

Lin Feng couldn't see the process of the battle at all. The entire void became colorless once more.

Lin Feng couldn't help but complain inwardly, "What exactly am I supposed to be watching in a battle like this? I can't even see the process of the fight!"
