The spirit boat flew up and flew towards three grand mountains, their peaks are covered in clouds, from up high, Lin Feng was able to see a massive lake at the foot of these mountains too.
Their flying speed wasn't swift, it was no doubt deliberately done by this elder.
"Alright, listen, my name is Yan Lihua, so from now on, call me elder Yan... now let me tell you some important rules.
First, you cannot cultivate the sect's main cultivation technique unless you have a partner.
You won't believe it, but there are some inner disciples of the sect who are still waiting for a suitable partner out of their stubbornness and cultivate some other cultivation techniques. One specifically is the most stubborn of all, she has strength to become a core sect disciple, but oh well... what can we say.
Without practicing the sect's main cultivation technique, you can't become a core sect disciple, no matter how strong you are.
Don't be like them and waste your time, especially you, Huo Meiling, if your fiancé doesn't come in 6 months, then choose a partner and cultivate."
Huo Meiling's eyes widened, she didn't like this at all.
Yan Lihua shook her head seeing her expression, "Cultivation is a path of sacrifices, you have to come out of emotional bonds if you want to succeed.
It's not like I am telling you to give up on your fiancé, once he joins the inner sect, you can take him as your partner too.
Remember, you are far more talented than him, you will definitely surpass him in cultivation realm and even leave this world, how long are you planning to carry him as a burden, the sooner you understand this, the better it will be for you.
I can only give suggestions, it will be your choice in the end.
If you made up your mind someday, then tell me, I will assign you a partner who will never reveal that he is your partner, your fiancé won't know about it, this will lessen your guilt."
Lin Feng shook his head internally, it was quite normal in a dual cultivation sect, the fact elder Yan is even trying to entice Huo Meiling is because she knew that inherently she is lustful due to her yin level.
"I won't, I don't need anyone else as a partner," Huo Meiling spoke immediately.
Yan Lihua sighed and looked at Lin Feng, "What about you, Lin Hao?"
"I will definitely look for a suitable partner, elder Yan, if I don't find any in two months, then I will ask you for help," Lin Feng said enthusiastically.
Yan Lihua smiled, "I doubt you need my help, once your information is spread, women will flock to you. Even I am quite interested, but it is against that six-month rule, elders are not allowed to pick new disciples as partners, and consent is required."
Lin Feng looked at her alluring figure and smiled lecherously, "I wouldn't mind, now I feel like this rule is more torturous for me."
Yan Lihua didn't mind his gaze, "Six months will pass in the blink of an eye, cultivate well.
Now for the second rule, forcing others to become a partner is not allowed, punishment is very severe for breaking this.
Third rule, once consent is given and you become partners, then you have to cultivate with that partner for at least three month before you can leave him, your likes and dislikes won't matter, so beware when giving consent.
Of course, if your partner abuses you, then you can report to the sect.
Other rules are simple, like no killing outside of death arenas, no rape, completing at least one mission in every three months after your 6-month time period...
Just remember these, and you will be fine."
Lin Feng and Huo Meiling nodded.
"The reason you guys are made to go through six months of training is simple, in this time period, you get to know everything about the sect, so nobody can deceive you about anything.
As for getting qualified to go on missions, you have to pass three battle tests in six months to prove your battle strength, but even than I doubt you guys would be allowed to go out of the sect alone... you two are too precious for the sect's growth.
Let's see what all the elders and sect master decide about it, we have arrived in the inner sect."
Lin Feng looked down, they were at the base of the leftmost mountain, there were a lot of pavilions and disciples here.
They passed above their heads and arrived at a small pavilion where no disciples were before stopping, "Let's go and get you guys your tokens."
They followed her inside and saw that one old man was sleeping while reclining on his seat, Yan Lihua shook her head, "Why do you always sleep, you old geezer... tsk."
The old man woke up slowly, "Hmm... we never get direct inner disciples anyway, so what's the point of this pavilion," while speaking, he looked towards Lin Feng and Huo Meiling, his eyes widened, "A handsome boy and a beautiful girl..you have good taste, why did you bring them here?"
Yan Lihua sighed, "Why else, they are new inner disciples... create their tokens and give them their robes, their names are Lin Hao and Huo Meiling... do it fast, I have to report to the sect too."
"What— How much is their yang and yin?" The old man asked hurriedly.
Yan Lihua shook her head, "If you want to know, then come to the sect meeting this time."
"Tch... why the secrecy, fine," the old man stood up and went inside, after a few breaths, he came with six pairs of robes, three for each, and two tokens. Yan Lihua waved her hand and directly took everything before moving out.
Lin Feng and Huo Meiling followed her on the spirit boat again.
"See this mountain, this has natural spiritual veins in it, the higher you go, the better abodes for living are, I will assign you guys the best abodes available on this mountain peak," Yan Lihua spoke while directly taking them into the clouds.
