Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

HOLY FLOOD EMPIRE.

Lin Fan was sitting on his little throne within his mansion. His robe was embroidered with golden and dragon-like patterns, and he was slowly fanning himself with a fan painted with a flood dragon's features. Staring at the man in front of him, his fathomless eyes showed a glint of surprise, but were quickly replaced with a sneer.

No one knew who he was in his past life. Lin Fan was a reincarnated Mahayana Emperor. In the past, he swept across borders in Da Shenghou and challenged a lot of cultivators, earning the title of "The Undefeated." Because of the reason that he accidentally killed a prince of an empire from the past, he got besieged by the order of the father of that prince, the emperor.

It was an accident. But he still killed that kid. That much was certain.

It was not long ago when he awakened his memories, slowly remembering the techniques he once had, especially the Indomitable Saber Art he created himself. Although it was only an earth-ranked art, it was so powerful that it could rival arts at the heaven's rank.

"The battle was actually stopped and no one was left alive not even their blood?"

Facing the questioning look of Lin Fan, the man didn't budge and nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty. Lin Diyu was also there. I don't know if His Majesty..."

Lin Fan faintly shook his head. "You don't have to worry about him. I was more worried about the expert who killed all the experts from both sides. What was his intention?" After nearly a minute, he placed one of his hands behind his back and said, "But whoever he was, if he dared to kill people of the empire, he shall be convicted of a crime punishable by death!"

Within him, however, there was a feeling of uneasiness. It seemed like he missed something important.

On the other hand, Yang Lujia, who was enjoying his heaven-ranked elixirs, was interrupted by the sudden breakthroughs of Lin Diyu. "I almost forgot that the time of the Blood World to Da Shenghou is one year to one day."

In other words, while a day has passed in Da Shenghou, a year has already passed in Blood World. Yang Lujia bent the law of time for Lin Diyu to catch up with Lin Fan.

Peak Stage of the Ten Meridians Realm!

First Stage of the Foundation Path Realm!

Second Stage of the Foundation Path Realm!

Fifth Stage of the Foundation Path Realm!

Peak Stage of the Foundation Path Realm!

Fourth Stage of the Core Formation Realm!

Fifth Stage of the Core Formation Realm!

This time, after learning about his disciple's breakthrough, stared at the entrance of the Blood World, wide-eyed. Lin Diyu's cultivation only stopped rising when he reached the Fifth Stage of Spirit Refinement Realm!

"System, is this the cultivation of the genius you chose? Isn't this too outrageous? He basically exploded after he started practicing the scripture. I think he did not even learn one-tenth of the whole scripture," Yang Lujia said.

But the system remained unresponsive.

Yang Lujia became used to this and just laughed as if he picked up a treasure. "This is what we call a genius. In the War Dragon Sect, I'm afraid no one could equal him."

If others would know about this cultivation speed, wouldn't they vomit blood in anger for the years they had been through to reach this stage but had been reached by Yang Lujia after not even a day here in Da Shenghou?

"Oh, no, the Blood World was actually consumed by this disciple!" Yang Lujia's eyes shrank and directly pulled Lin Diyu from it. "You, disciple, why are you so greedy? Absorbing all of the blood in one drink, eh?"

"Please forgive this disciple, master, but Diyu just liked to be around with blood!" his disciple firmly said, his hands clenched. "I also thank master for his grace! If it wouldn't for master, I wouldn't be able to reach this stage!"

"Stop the talk. Later on, I will find a way to find blood for you. Although I said you can't help other people but I don't advise killing innocent people." Yang Lujia's face was bland, not evoking any emotion, but through his eyes, it could be seen that he recalled something bad.

In his previous life, he killed innocent people for the sake of making his name known, for the sake of continuing his "good" impact on people, to continue shielding the truth with lies... he was once a dumbass. Due to these circumstances, he didn't want to wantonly kill people anymore. In the end, the friends he watered every day to grow into a beautiful flower slowly turned into a rose with sharp thorns that stabbed his back.

"System, are my disciples bound to me? Can I kill them if they betray me in the future?" Yang Lujia thought, asking the system.

[Ding! Host's concern is needless. Disciples can be killed at will if they will betray the Host in the future.]

Yang Lujia nodded when he heard this prompt and looked at his first disciple. Lin Diyu's eyes were vivid with a shade of red permeating. In these eyes, there was a look of worship for the person in front of him, his master.

"This disciple understands!"

"As long as you understand."

"Master, as far as I know, Lin Fan was already at the same stage as me in terms of cultivation—"

"No," Yang Lujia directly cut him off. "Don't be stubborn. Always stick to our rules. What if Lin Fan was purposely hiding his cultivation? I believe that kid is not simple!"

Lin Diyu was helpless, shaking his head. "This disciple understands!"

Yang Lujia looked at him. After a moment, he said: "Your IQ is really low. But let's go, I will take you to a place I know where there is blood." He then swiped a finger in the air and the enlarged Blood World was once again compressed into a tiny ball. "Let's ravage that place and steal all the blood they accumulated throughout these years."

Lin Diyu's body trembled. "Where would that be, master?"

"Actually, I also don't know."

"What?"

"What could I know? I only heard this from Grandpa last time. It is said that it can only be found in the Realm of Death, Da Sishen. As for the exact location, I don't know. However, that place should be named: "The Devil's Den". Grandpa told me that the strongest expert in that den was at the God King Realm." This time, Yang Lujia's eyes, were also solemn.

Lin Diyu's eyes shrank. "Master, what is this God King Realm?"

"God King Realm..." Yang Lujia trailed off and asked the system in his thoughts: "System, how high is the cultivation of the God King Realm?"

He was feeling sorry for this because he really didn't know his cultivation at all. That was because when he first cultivated, he set the system to default. In other words, every time he'd make a breakthrough, the system wouldn't tell him at what stage he was currently at. The system remained silent. And that was what he wanted because he wanted to keep getting stronger and stronger for fear of getting outstood by other cultivators.

After getting the reply from the system, Yang Lujia returned his gaze to his disciple: "God King Realm is three realms above a Mahayana Emperor of Da Shenghou. Above the Mahayana Emperor, there is the Void God Realm, followed by the True God Realm, and this God King Realm. Each of them has ten stages to fulfill before reaching the next stage."

GASP!

Hearing this, traces of shock could be seen from Lin Diyu's eyes. If this God King Realm is already much higher than a Mahayana Emperor, then how strong would his master be?

"Fuck, the master is so overpowered!" Lin Diyu screamed in his heart. The way he looked at Yang Lujia became even more respectful. If his master told him he had to cut his younger brother, he would do it without a second thought!

Yang Lujia, considering the shock of his disciple, nodded his head in satisfaction. He felt like he needed to broaden his disciple's views in cultivation. Otherwise, he'd only become a loose cultivator who would kill everyone who'd stand in his way. That would be so reckless.

"Let's go," Yang Lujia lightly said as qi surrounded the entire body of Lin Diyu. He then thought: "God King Realm, huh? I wonder how strong am I compared to it? Because I have a thousand rewards for being able to escape light years away from the starting point, I don't have to worry about escaping."
