"Disciple greets master. I beg master to give me guidance." He said while he was kowtowing.

His palms clenched tightly as he spoke.

"Hm." Qin Tian smiled in satisfaction as he saw his reaction.

He wasn't surprised by his reaction because what he gave him was a cultivation technique created by the Yue clan ancient god.

"Now give me a cup of wine and light a cigarette for me, only then will you officially become my student." He says.

"Sorry master, I don't have wine and cigarettes." Yue Yang replied.

"Hmph." Qin Tian snorted in displeasure.

The reason he snorted was because he didn't receive confirmation from the system that he had accepted a disciple.

Obviously it was because the ceremony had not yet been held.

Maybe it doesn't apply to other people, but it only applies to him because he made the rules like that.

But even though he wasn't happy, he didn't plan to change the rules he had made. It was a rule passed down from generation to generation in his sect.

In his past life, he had done that to his master, and he wanted all of his disciples to do the same to him when they recognized him as their master.

"All right, follow me now." Qin Tian said as he turned around.

He then walked out of the room. He walked with his hands on his back.

In front of his disciple, he naturally needed to act like a great elder. Luckily he's the type with all kinds of personalities so he doesn't feel awkward.

Yue Yang then followed behind him, but he looked doubtful as he was about to step into the tunnel.

"Nothing happens as long as you are two steps behind me." Said Qin Tian.

After saying that, he continued walking forward.

"Master." Yue Yang said as he watched him walk towards the outside of the tunnel.

He clearly still wanted to enter the tunnel.

"You better not think about it anymore. If I leave you here, you will surely die." Qin Tian replied in an indifferent tone.

Qin Tian ignored him after that, and he continued to accelerate his pace.

Yue Yang didn't dare to ask again after that. Even though he still wanted to enter, he knew that he was only looking for death in there. If it weren't for the treasures he was carrying, he wouldn't even be able to reach that place.

Yue Yang obviously didn't go very deep in that tunnel. It was only a moment later before they returned to the previous stone chamber.

After returning to the stone chamber, he looked at the tunnels behind him for a few moments before heading to the tunnel connected to the river.

From there, he saw the Yuan trio still waiting for him.

More than 24 hours of time had passed, but it was clearly still not enough for junior disciples to finish their cultivation.

Qin Tian and Yue Yang immediately swam towards them.

Yue Yang followed behind Qin Tian in a polite manner while the Yuan trio looked confused whether they should be polite or arrogant because of Yue Yang's presence behind Qin Tian.

But Yue Yang did not react because on the previous trip Qin Tian had already said that the Yuan trio were his subordinates.

"From now on he is my disciple." Qin Tian said without being verbose.

He ignored the shocked expressions on the Yuan trio's faces, and he then asked. "Are they still long?" He stared at the junior disciples who were still cultivating.

Hearing Qin Tian's question, Yuan Ji quickly recovered his expression.

"If you want to leave now, I can stop them." Yuan Ji replied.

"No need." Qin Tian waved his hand.

"Just let them cultivate until they are finished."

After saying that, he then swam to a certain area of ​​the river. Of course, he was moving where those junior disciples couldn't see.

He stopped at a location that had a lot of spiritual energy, and after that, he started meditating to absorb the spiritual energy around him.

Since there was still time left, he naturally wouldn't waste an opportunity.

About an hour later, he managed to gather 10,000 spiritual energy. His speed in absorbing spiritual energy is much faster at 15 spiritual energy per second, but unfortunately the spiritual energy available is not enough to meet his needs. He in the end could only absorb 2, 3, or 4 spiritual energy per second.

But until now, Qin Tian had still not discovered anything special from the Longevity Scripture even though it was already at the second stage.

...

Because he also participated in cultivation, the cultivation time in the river ended up faster because the spiritual energy there was depleted more quickly.

After that, Qin Tian and the others immediately returned to their respective residences.

Qin Tian naturally returned to the Yuan Ji residence.

But only moments after he returned, Yue Yang finally came to the Yuan trio's residence carrying a bottle of wine and a pack of cigarettes.

...

"Follow me." Qin Tian said before walking to his room.

He ignored the Yuan trio's confused reactions.

After entering his room, he immediately walked to the bed. He then sat on the edge of the mattress with his legs crossed.

"All right, now let's start the ceremony." He said in an indifferent tone.

"Em." Yue Yang walked towards Qin Tian and bowed before him.

He then poured the wine into a silver cup.

"Please accept my worship, master." He said in a respectful tone, and he then handed the silver cup to Qin Tian.

"Ha ha ha." Qin Tian chuckled inwardly.

He took the cup before pouring it into his mouth.

Without waiting for Yue Yang's reaction, he then stretched out his hand to pick up the cigarette box in Yue Yang's hand.

He took out a cigarette from the box and then placed it between his lips. "Now help me light this cigarette." Said Qin Tian.

Yue Yang didn't dare delay, he immediately took out one matchstick.

Crekk...

As the flames burned, he immediately helped Qin Tian light the cigarette in his mouth.

Whooss...

In an instant, Qin Tian's mouth let out a lot of smoke. His indifferent face also turned relaxed.

...

"Emmm."

He has just showing a relaxed expression, but in an instant, his expression changed once again. And this time, his expression turned very serious as if he was watching the sky collapse.

"Master." Yue Yang said with a confused expression.

Qin Tian paid no heed to his expression, and he immediately stood up before running towards the balcony of his room.

Upon arrival, he then jumped onto the roof of the mansion.

He saw the Yuan trio there playing cards.

The three of them were shocked by his sudden arrival. They wanted to say hello, but before they could do that, they seemed to sense something. They then turned their gaze to the sky.

Qin Tian also looked up at the sky.

In reality, it wasn't just him and the Yuan trio, but everyone who was outside the room. Probably everyone in the Dead Sea Territory.

Rumble...

The sky suddenly rumbled before turning into complete darkness so that most people couldn't see anymore.

And when the sky grew dark, suddenly a giant shadow flashed across the sky. It was not a person's shadow, but a thin, pale white hand.

The hand came from the west and it was heading towards the sky. It flew across the skies of the Dead Sea Territory.

"It comes from the Sea of ​​Red Tears."
