Su Tong looked at the disciples of the Crimson Rainbow Sect, who were continuously carrying in one box of supplies after another. His face revealed shock.
"What...what does this mean?"
Looking at the supplies in front of him, Su Tong hurriedly asked the Crimson Rainbow Sect's representative.
Even five years ago when three young men were chosen by the Crimson Rainbow Sect, there were not this many supplies!
"Congratulations!"
The Crimson Rainbow Sect's representative also smiled and spoke.
With just a word of congratulations, Su Tong became even more confused.
This representative was in charge of Water Cloud Kingdom's supplies.
Even when someone was chosen by the Crimson Rainbow Sect, he didn't say congratulations.
But now, it made Su Tong even more puzzled.
"What...what's there to celebrate? My Water Cloud Kingdom's talents are withering. For five consecutive years no one has been able to enter the Crimson Rainbow Sect. This..."
Looking at the unceasing flow of supplies, Su Tong became even more bewildered.
"Who said the Water Cloud Kingdom's talents are withering? The Water Cloud Kingdom has produced an existence as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!"
The Crimson Rainbow Sect's representative also knew that from now on, the Water Cloud Kingdom would probably no longer be just a low-level kingdom.
A Crimson Rainbow Sect elder had been born.
It was only a matter of time before the Water Cloud Kingdom became a high-level kingdom.
"An existence as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns?"
Su Tong's brows furrowed slightly. Didn't you say there wasn't a single disciple?
"That's right. Su Tong of the Water Cloud Kingdom, because of his astonishing aptitude, has already been invited by the Sect Master to become an elder of the Crimson Rainbow Sect!"
The Crimson Rainbow Sect's representative said with a smile.
Hearing these words, Su Tong was stunned.
He stared dumbfounded, not having reacted at all.
"El...Elder?"
Su Tong, having finally reacted, still couldn't believe it.
A young man from the Water Cloud Kingdom was directly promoted to elder by the Crimson Rainbow Sect's Sect Master?
No!
It wasn't a direct promotion, but...an invitation?
"That's right. For the specific details, you only need to ask the returning youngster. These are the supply lists for an elder's treatment. Take a look!"
The Crimson Rainbow Sect's representative also handed a handbook to Su Tong.
Su Tong opened it and glanced through it. It was full of recorded resources, and even contained cultivation techniques and spirit arts.
Although they were all top-grade ordinary-grade.
For a low-level kingdom like the Water Cloud Kingdom, they were still very scarce.
"Thank you Sect Master for your gifts!"
Su Tong hurriedly expressed his thanks.
With these resources, it was only a matter of time before the Water Cloud Kingdom became a mid-level kingdom or even a high-level kingdom!
...
Within the Crimson Rainbow Sect.
Su Tong cultivated with closed eyes.
The surrounding spiritual energy continuously gathered towards his body.
The attributes of this spiritual energy often changed, sometimes it was fire-attributed, and sometimes it was water-attributed.
This was Su Tong's continuous attempts.
Because he was unclear on his own attributes, Su Tong wanted to find out through testing.
After all, spiritual energy of the same attribute could enhance even more cultivation when absorbed.
But after trying for half an hour, Su Tong discovered...
"Why is the increase about the same for everything?"
Su Tong didn't distinguish any difference between strong or weak.
It was all very consistent.
"Could it be because I'm using Chinese, so these differences are offset?"
After hesitating for a while, Su Tong came to this conclusion.
He didn't know if it was correct.
But since the absorption was consistent anyway, Su Tong didn't need to care whether they suited him or not.
"Devour spiritual energy of all attributes!"
Su Tong shouted lowly.
In an instant, spiritual energy countless times stronger than before continuously poured into Su Tong's body.
"Purify!"
Su Tong spoke again.
These were several words that Su Tong had picked out from all the words he had tried in the past half an hour that he thought might be possible.
The two characters for "devour" were stronger than words like "absorb" and "draw in".
And "purify" could make the spiritual energy even more refined compared to words like "refine" and "extract".
So Su Tong used these two words to replace other words.
However, Su Tong didn't know that after he had spoken these two words in the ancient god language, countless colorful clouds suddenly appeared in the sky above where he resided.
If there were any elders or other powerful figures from the Crimson Rainbow Sect around Su Tong's residence at this time, they would definitely be shocked.
This was an omen that appeared when a god-grade cultivation technique emerged.
It was just that there were only a few disciples who saw it at this time.
"The clouds over there are so beautiful!"
A female disciple saw it from afar and was extremely excited.
"Wow, I see them too. They're too gorgeous!"
Another female disciple of the Crimson Rainbow Sect also exclaimed.
No matter where, who doesn't like beautiful scenery?
It was the same even in a different world.
...
"Phew! Comfortable!"
After continuously cultivating for an hour, Su Tong finally exited his cultivation state.
By now, the anomaly in the sky had disappeared a long time ago.
"Elder Su!"
At this moment, Shi Lei's voice came from outside the room.
Hearing it, Su Tong got up and walked out of the room.
"What's the matter?"
Looking at Shi Lei, Su Tong asked.
"The Sect Master requests Elder Su to go to the Testing Hall. This year's disciple selection has ended, and their attribute aptitudes need testing. The Sect Master means that Elder Su can also go test!"
Shi Lei had to say.
"Okay, I know. Lead the way ahead!"
Su Tong nodded.
Just now when he tested himself, he didn't feel anything. Now there was formal testing, he naturally wanted to go try.
Then Su Tong followed Shi Lei towards the so-called Testing Hall.
When they arrived at the Testing Hall, it was already packed with people.
Not only were there disciples who had just entered the Crimson Rainbow Sect today, some senior disciples were also there.
Originally these disciples were probably Su Tong's martial brothers and sisters. But now, they were still disciples, while Su Tong was already an elder.
No matter whether it was status or power, he was much higher than them.
"Elder Su, you can enter from this side!"
Arriving at a spot, Shi Lei stopped and said to Su Tong.
Su Tong nodded, then directly walked inside.
But he was blocked by two disciples.
"This is the passage for Crimson Rainbow Sect elders. Disciples cannot enter!"
One of the disciples said.
Su Tong smiled and took out the elder's waist tag.
"This...Elder!"
Seeing the elder's waist tag, both disciples were stunned.
Then they quickly spoke respectfully.
They didn't feel it was fake, because no disciple would be stupid enough to take an elder's waist tag and barge into a place that only elders could enter.
Wouldn't that be walking into a trap?
"Mm."
Su Tong nodded, then directly walked inside.
The two disciples looked at each other in dismay.
Since when did the Crimson Rainbow Sect have such a young elder?
It was probably some elder who liked to take on a young appearance, this much they could still do.
Su Tong entered through the doorway, then walked straight down a corridor.
There was still a door in front of him.
But just as Su Tong was about to enter the door, his brows furrowed slightly!
