Chapter 12

Amu stood amidst the scene, suddenly feeling a powerful force surge towards him like a tidal wave, with a force of a thousand catties, pressing down on his body, making him stagger. His flesh, tempered over ten years, actually felt intense pain.

"Is this the power of a spirit cultivator?" Amu's face instantly turned as pale as paper. Just this wave of force was more than he could bear.

However, Amu's body was far from ordinary. Although the powerful force made him stagger, he could still勉强支撑.

"Hmm?" Bai Yifeng's expression turned serious.

He had not intended to hurt Amu, but rather to test him out of amusement, wanting to see what skills Amu possessed to make such bold claims. Although Bai Yifeng's wave of force was only a fraction of his true strength, it would have been enough to make a typical novice cultivator of the third or fourth level fall to the ground.

But Amu, despite his pale face, did not move an inch and managed to hold on.

With Bai Yifeng's keen eyesight, he had long seen that Amu was an ordinary body without any immortal roots. For an ordinary body to resist a spirit cultivator's spiritual power was simply impossible.

At this moment, Han Qianli and Mei Wangnan also noticed Amu's extraordinary nature and were taken aback.

In fact, Amu felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him, and he could not hold on for long. But at this moment, Amu suddenly felt a current of energy surge from his dantian.

"Is this the magic coffin?" Amu thought to himself.

The energy current moved without Amu's control, instantly covering his entire body. At the same time, the powerful force that was pressing down on him suddenly eased, and then it was absorbed by the energy current in his body, flowing into the dantian.

Like a whale drinking, Bai Yifeng's spiritual power was completely neutralized, and Amu's face instantly recovered, everything returning to normal.

Amu was overjoyed. The magic coffin was truly miraculous. Could it not absorb spiritual power and convert it for his own use?

However, as soon as the spiritual force pressing down on him disappeared, the magic coffin instantly became dormant.

In fact, this was all a matter of a split second. Bai Yifeng and the others, including Han Qianli, only saw Amu's face turn pale and then recover.

"Immortal bones?" Bai Yifeng was greatly startled. Unless it was the legendary powerful immortal bones, he could not think of how an ordinary person could silently neutralize his attack. However, Bai Yifeng did not reveal this, only glancing at Mei Wangnan and Han Qianli.

All three had reached the spirit realm, especially Han Qianli, who was at the initial stage of the spirit sage, and naturally saw the problem.

"Ha ha!" Bai Yifeng suddenly laughed, looking at Amu and saying, "Amu, you are not inferior to anyone! You have the qualifications."

Bai Yifeng looked at Amu with genuine sincerity in his eyes, then bowed to Han Qianli and said, "I, Yifeng, was impolite. I hope the sect leader will punish me! Amu can withstand my attack with an ordinary body, his talent is truly exceptional. To become the sect leader's disciple and take over the sect leader's position in the future is just around the corner! Our Northern Cold will surely be revived!"

When these words were spoken, the entire hall was in an uproar, and the purple and blue-robed disciples were even more astonished.

Bai Yifeng's talent was considered the best in Northern Cold, even Han Qianli could not match him, and his insight was no less than Han Qianli's.

Originally, Han Qianli had no disciples, and Bai Yifeng was the most popular candidate for the next Northern Cold sect leader.

But no one expected that Bai Yifeng's test of Amu would have such a result.

Although Bai Yifeng was somewhat cold and proud, he was absolutely a gentleman and never did anything in secret, just as he dared to test Amu in front of Han Qianli.

And with these words, it was equivalent to the Sunset Peak leader supporting Amu to become Han Qianli's direct disciple, and even supporting Amu to take over the entire Northern Cold in the future.

Han Qianli was also taken aback. Possessing immortal bones was a talent in ten thousand.

"Truly worthy of being chosen by the sect leader, indeed an excellent choice! Among our Northern Cold's three thousand disciples, no one can match Amu!" Mei Wangnan also sighed, not expecting that Amu had immortal bones.

The others also realized that Bai Yifeng must have tested Amu just now. To receive such high praise from two leaders, Amu was certainly no ordinary person.

Han Qianli waved his hand at Bai Yifeng, indicating that his actions were acceptable. Then he looked at Amu for a long time, but could not help but smile bitterly, and no one knew why he smiled bitterly.

Han Qianli's thoughts were different from the other leaders and elders. The others were impressed by Amu's talent, but he believed that Amu must have also received other secret techniques from Wang Jue. Otherwise, with just immortal bones, Amu, an ordinary person, could not have truly unleashed the power of the immortal bones and might not have been able to withstand Bai Yifeng's attack.

It seemed that his cultivation was not in Amu's eyes; otherwise, how could Amu remain unmoved by the temptation of becoming the sect leader's direct disciple?

Thinking of this, Han Qianli felt disheartened and sighed, "Amu, if what you said just now is truly what you think, then it will be as you wish! First, cultivate your immortal roots, then participate in the small examination, and then we will decide on the matter of becoming a disciple."

Amu was also marveling at the magic coffin in his body. Without the magic coffin, he would have been embarrassed today, so he did not say much and simply said, "Thank you, Senior!"

Amu's attitude further confirmed Han Qianli's thoughts.

Han Qianli nodded slightly and said to Mei Wanli and the others, "Let's follow Amu's wishes!"

Then Han Qianli said to the purple-robed Tie Yun in the hall, "Tie Yun, take Amu to the Northern Cold Ancestral Hall on the back mountain and formally make him a disciple of our sect. Then arrange for him to live on the back mountain of Tongtian Peak, and take him to the Wuhao Cave on Luoyun Cliff in three days to cultivate! From now on, all matters concerning Amu will be handled by you personally."

When they heard about the Ancestral Hall, the Northern Cold disciples were moved. According to Northern Cold tradition, only disciples of the fixed cultivation level had the right to pay respects at the Ancestral Hall, from then on becoming core disciples of Northern Cold.

Not to mention Amu, even the blue-robed disciples in the hall, who were at the peak of the initial cultivation level, were just one step away from the fixed cultivation level, but had not yet entered the Ancestral Hall.

All Northern Cold disciples who entered the Ancestral Hall would return with gains, either receiving excellent magical treasures or cultivation techniques, and some even directly breaking through their cultivation bottlenecks and making significant progress.

Now, Han Qianli's order for Tie Yun to take Amu to the Ancestral Hall was already a significant matter, but when Han Qianli said to take Amu to the Wuhao Cave on Luoyun Cliff, the expressions of the others changed even more.

"Go to the Wuhao Cave on Luoyun Cliff to cultivate?" The purple-robed Tie Yun was surprised, and Mei Wangnan and the others also showed signs of movement, while Bing Xianzi raised an eyebrow, and Bai Yifeng remained calm.

"It is the Wuhao Cave on Luoyun Cliff! Is there any problem with that?" Han Qianli glanced at Tie Yun and said coldly.

Tie Yun did not dare to ask further, quickly nodded, and said to Amu, "Junior Brother Amu, please follow me!"

Han Qianli also said to Amu, "Amu, there are many affairs in the sect. If you need anything in the future, just find Senior Brother Tie Yun. You are now a novice cultivator in Northern Cold. Although your opportunities are extraordinary, do not neglect your cultivation. In a year, the leaders and elders will still be watching your performance in the small examination!"

Amu knew that Han Qianli was encouraging him and said, "Sect leader, rest assured, Amu will not let anyone down!"

Han Qianli nodded and gave Tie Yun a few more instructions, then dismissed the two of them.

After Amu and Tie Yun left, Han Qianli swept his gaze over the leaders of the various peaks, sighed, and said, "In the future, all of Amu's requests must be fully met. The future of Northern Cold depends on this person!"

When Han Qianli said this, the image of Wang Jue appeared in his mind. As long as Wang Jue was satisfied, everything was worth it.

Except for Han Qianli, no one in Northern Cold knew about Wang Jue's existence.

After saying this, Han Qianli did not care about the others' shock, waved his hand to dismiss them, and sat alone in the hall.

"Senior Wang Jue, an ordinary person can surpass an immortal!" Han Qianli whispered to himself.
