Upgrade mission part 1

He slowly operated his spiritual energy into his eyes, turning on his current ability. He next looked at both Kang Xuan and Shen Yue.

There is data displayed on their heads, that only he can see.

'This is a relatively comfortable ability... Even though I would love to have a more powerful ability.' Ning Qi thought.

"Alright! Shen Yue will be the second disciple and Kang Xuan will be the third. Age isn't a big matter among cultivation practitioners, and I hope all of you will cooperate and work for the betterment of our sect."Ning Qi explained.

"Yes, Sect master!" All of them, including Nangong Xu, excitedly said.

"Alright! Let's go inside and start practicing already. The time is right, as the sun is already setting! Ah, yes... Inform your family that you won't be going back tonight and also ask them to get whatever things you want. From now on, you are going to put all your time into cultivation." Ning Qi said as he leads them into the reception hall.

"Nangong Xu, send one more million to Kang Xuan account... We, cultivators, don't desire money. But his family is dependent on him. " Ning Qi shamelessly ordered, almost making Nangong Xu trip on his foot.

Kang Xuan got surprised by Ning Qi's acute senses, as he was genuinely troubled about that issue, just a moment ago. One Million represents an enormous sum for him, just an hour ago. But now he doesn't feel much enthusiasm towards money.

"These are our sect rules, that you must make sure to remember and follow." Ning Qi said as he pointed at the rule board that they hung today.

Both of them carefully read and memorized everything.

Ning Qi next asked the system for 2 more copies and gave them, before leading them to the second floor for cultivation.

"Alright! Nangong Xu, direct them both properly and if you are incapable to resolve any problem, then only come to me." Ning Qi said and went to sit on his chair without bothering them anymore.

"That's how the sect master is, he didn't even provide me with any guidance at all. All he did was provide me with this technique. Don't make such long faces, at least you have me to guide you alright?" Nangong Xu said after noting their expressions.

"Ohh!" Shen Yue said with a disappointed face, as she expected Ning Qi to direct them to cultivation in person. But Kang Xuan didn't utter anything at all... he merely sat and waited for Nangong Xuan to guide them.

"First! Our cultivation technique is called Astral Qi cultivation, once you start meditating, you will be connected with the stars, and you can gather spiritual energy from the stars. As such, make sure to never cultivate directly under the sun... The sun is a star itself, so the scorching energy will burn your meridians. Nighttime is the best time to cultivate our technique, as we can connect with the abundance of stars without much interruption from the Sun... Each cultivation level contains nine stages..."Nangong Xu slowly explained all the things, from cultivation technique to the basics of cultivation level.

"Oi! Nangong Xu, what is the cultivation level of the sect master? " Shen Yue after listening to all Nangong Xu said, couldn't help but asked.

"Huh? Mr. Nangong Xu, Is the sect master older than all of us? Like has he been living for thousands of years? " Kang Xuan also couldn't contain his curiousness, when he heard the question from Shen Yue.

Ning Qi, who just informed Li Ping, that he won't be coming back to the house. But his face twitched, when he overheard the question of Kang Xuan, as he understood his meaning. But he didn't declare anything and let Nangong Xu deal.

"Ahem! First of all, don't call me by my name, as I am the eldest disciple. J-Junior brother and Junior sister, about sect master cultivation exact details... I don't know too. But he should at least be in the Void realm according to my observation. As for how old the Sect master is... hehe, a void realm cultivator can live for 20000 years, and How old do you think he is? " Nangong Xu first corrected the way they addressed him, then he said mysteriously.

"If you continue to talk nonsense, I will beat the hell out of you. I'm just 27 years old as of now... and as for cultivation level, you don't need to know. Stop gossiping first and place more effort into cultivation. " Ning Qi cursed when he heard Nangong Xu. He also didn't say his cultivation level, as he is still in the same realm as them, even being the sect master, which will embarrass him.

"Oh! " All of them got surprised by the fact that Ning Qi is quite young and is able to start a cultivation sect. But they soon rid of all those thoughts and started practicing the cultivation technique.

With the help of Nangong Xu's guidance, they clearly grasped the pattern to practice.

Ning Qi even though, he looked like he is about to sleep, always keep an eye on them. He waited about 3 hours, in the meantime he ordered some food for everyone.

"Ding! The system finds a Direct disciple She Yue stepped into Qi refining level 1! The host will get a 100 % cultivation bonus from that disciple."

"Ding! The system finds a Direct disciple Kang Xuan stepped into Qi refining level 1! The host will get a 100% cultivation bonus from that disciple."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining 2 levels and reaching Qi refining Level 6."

A series of notifications that Ning Qi was waiting for finally came. He is reasonably delighted, as he is not far from the Qi refining level peak.

"Oh My god! I feel so much strength flowing in my body. Is this the spiritual energy that S-senior's brother talked about? " Shen Yue couldn't help but ask excitedly, she has been training in martial arts since childhood. Right now just a night practice has increased her power by at least 50 %, which made her stupefied.

"I equally felt so much power... I never thought humans can become such magical beings and now I became one of them too." Kang Xuan couldn't help but excitedly say,

"Alright! You both are still in Qi refining level 1 only, I want you all to work hard and reach the foundation establishment realm first. " Ning Qi said standing up from his seat.

"Shen Yue, your strength is barely able to fight against a level 2 refiner, even though you were able to fight against a level 1 before. And you Kang Xuan, can only be able to fight against an average level 1 Qi refining cultivator at best. Your strength is pretty average." Ning Qi said flatly.

"Your senior brother is able to fight against a level 3 cultivator pretty easily. But he also practices a particular martial technique of our sect, which enable him to possess the strength to fight against a level 7 cultivator with a chance to win. Therefore, I require you both of them to practice diligently and increase your strength. You can train that technique from your senior brother tomorrow... Nighttime is consistently the best time for cultivation. " Ning Qi said slowly.

"Yes! Sect master" All of them said. Shen Yue on the other hand is surprised by the fact that Nangong Xu is already that strong. He is unexpectedly stronger than her grandfather, making her more determined on training.

"Shen Yue! Go and receive the order from the main gate! I have placed food for all of us." Ning Qi commanded.

"Yes, sect master!" With a whoosh, she moved.

"Sect master! I will make a call to my family and come back quickly." Kang Xuan stood up and said respectfully.

"Alright, Kang Xuan! You don't have to inform all of those things. You can do whatever you want here... but make sure to follow sect rules that's all." Ning Qi said, even he finds that calling a middle-aged uncle by name is rather awkward. But he needs to get used to that, he can't call an 'uncle disciple'.

Kang Xuan heaved a sigh and went outside to make calls, leaving both Nangong Xu and Ning Qi.

"Sect master! I'm declaring beforehand... I have liked Shen Yue for quite some time. So! Please don't have any thoughts on her." Nangong Xu said with a begging tone. He always thought Ning Qi is probably an Old Monster, but Knowing that Ning Qi is only 27... he started regretting bringing Shen Yue here.

Ning Qi, who was about to talk about something, with a swoosh moved behind him and gave a sharp kick on his a**, making him cry out in pain.

"What the heck are you talking about? Do you think I am as perverted as you? If you talk one more nonsense, I will punish you by letting you starve for 2 days."

Ning Qi glared at him, making nangong xu embarrassed. Ning Qi genuinely doesn't harbor any thoughts about her, as he already felt that nangong Xu is probably in love with this girl. He on top felt that Shen Yue is quite close to him, it was just that girl until now hasn't realized her feelings.
