System Bestows me with Immortality, Living on to Eventually Become Invincible-Chapter 65 – I’m not interested in fighting
In the Five Aggregates Sect, the Alchemy Hall was the most unruly among the main peaks. The elders acted as they pleased, not only because the Alchemy Hall held a high status within the sect and was revered by many, but also due to their unkempt peak master, leading to a lack of discipline.
As the vice peak master, Zuo Yiyin was constantly worried about the Alchemy Hall.
"Senior Sister Zuo." Everyone's expressions turned serious, and they quickly cupped their hands in respect, not daring to be presumptuous, as if they were all afraid of her.
Chen Xun also bowed his head and cupped his hands, swallowing nervously. The vice peak master was at least a late Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet she was incredibly young and carried an air of elegance.
"Chen Xun, come with me." Zuo Yiyin, with her long hair flowing down to her waist, gracefully walked towards the side hall, one hand behind her back.
"Brothers, I'll be going now." Chen Xun, leading Black Bull, bid farewell to the elders with cupped hands.
"Safe travels, Junior Brother Chen."
"Senior Sister Zuo is actually quite nice, don't worry too much."
"Junior Brother Chen, feel free to go. If it's inconvenient, we can take care of Black Bull for you."
…
Their words made Chen Xun uneasy as he walked, constantly glancing back at their expressions, wondering what they meant.
In the side hall, Zuo Yiyin sat in the main seat, her gaze sharp and focused on Chen Xun.
Chen Xun forced a smile, sometimes raising his head, sometimes lowering it. This woman was playing mind games with him by staying silent.
Black Bull, however, was unafraid, admiring the layout of the side hall.
"Chen Xun, from Yongquan Prefecture in the Kingdom Qian, failed the ascension conference at Nine Stars Valley and joined the Five Aggregates Sect. Since then, you've diligently cultivated spiritual herb fields and participated in the grand competition of the sect."
Zuo Yiyin spoke each word clearly, her gaze never leaving Chen Xun. "Twenty years ago, you entered Nandou Mountain, secured three main Foundation Establishment spiritual herbs for the sect, and then quietly continued cultivating spiritual herb fields..."
Chen Xun felt his throat dry up. Most of their records were here, but they had done many other things like sightseeing, hunting, reading, and catching mountain chickens, not as boring as she made it sound.
"Your background is clean, no issues."
Zuo Yiyin spoke to herself, seemingly satisfied with Chen Xun. "You seem to enjoy cultivating spiritual herbs?"
"Senior Sister Zuo, to be honest, Black Bull and I are quite skilled at it and enjoy it a lot!"
"Moo moo~~"
Both man and bull seemed to get excited, their eyes sparkling as if hitting a sore spot.
Zuo Yiyin smiled slightly. "Have you made any progress with the Water Spirit Decision?"
"Second level! I'm not interested in fighting. Besides cultivation, I focus on practicing the Water Spirit Decision."
Chen Xun stepped forward, forming a spell with his hands. Water bubbles surged in mid-air, floating with a faint spiritual qi.
Zuo Yiyin stood up solemnly. Indeed, it was the second level of the Water Spirit Decision. The sect was in dire need of such talents, which was why she personally met Chen Xun for registration.
Every Foundation Establishment elder sought breakthroughs and longevity, unable to spend large amounts of time practicing the Water Spirit Decision. The cultivation and search for resources had consumed most of their lives. Only a handful in the sect had reached the second level of the Water Spirit Decision.
The precious spiritual herbs of the Five Aggregates Sect relied on them. They had essentially given up their future, willingly dedicating themselves to the sect.
They had even captured Foundation Establishment rogue cultivators, forcing them to practice the Water Spirit Decision, but to no avail. This small spell seemed to temper the mind, requiring calmness and a long cultivation period, making it extremely grueling.
"Do you know that among the ten great immortal sects, there are those who have reached the third level of the Water Spirit Decision?" Zuo Yiyin suddenly shifted the topic.
"Such a person exists? I've spent most of my life reaching the second level, and now progress is slow, almost stagnant."
Chen Xun was shocked, frowning. "The third level, Senior Sister Zuo, is it really achievable?"
"Of course. The third level of the Water Spirit Decision can cultivate countless rare spiritual herbs, allowing them to overcome harsh growth conditions and survive, including Foundation Establishment spiritual herbs."
Zuo Yiyin nodded solemnly. "If someone in the Five Aggregates Sect reaches the third level, the entire sect will support them with countless Qi-Enhancing Pills and heavenly materials, pushing their cultivation to the Golden Elixir phase!"
Her words carried a profound meaning, making Chen Xun's heart tremble. Fortunately, he hadn't revealed that he had already reached the third level. Otherwise, not only would he attract the sect's attention, but also potential assassinations from other sects...
"No, this is too conspicuous and dangerous. Better to quietly cultivate spiritual herbs." Chen Xun thought to himself, abandoning any other thoughts.
"Senior Sister Zuo, I will definitely work hard on the Water Spirit Decision. I have no other hobbies, just a love for cultivating spiritual herbs."
Chen Xun cupped his hands and sincerely said, "Although Black Bull and I are not strong in duels, we are willing to contribute to the sect."
"Good." Zuo Yiyin nodded slightly, holding a bit of hope in her heart, just hoping he wouldn't be blinded by the lifespan of the Foundation Establishment phase. With a Five Element Mixed Spirit Root, it was nearly impossible to break through to the Golden Elixir phase.
"Junior Brother Chen." Zuo Yiyin's tone softened a bit.
"Please speak, Senior Sister." Chen Xun instinctively took a half step back.
Zuo Yiyin smiled brightly and said softly, "Although it's difficult for those with Five Element Mixed Spirit Roots to break through to the Golden Elixir phase, they still have over three hundred years of lifespan and can accomplish many meaningful things."
"Of course, Senior Sister, I understand." Chen Xun's heart sank, but he still responded with a smile.
Black Bull, however, was slightly angry. This woman was essentially saying they had no hope and should just work for the sect obediently!
They understood the reasoning, but this woman was too smart for her own good, not even leaving them a bit of dignity. They had already said they would cultivate spiritual herbs well, yet she still added unnecessary remarks.
Zuo Yiyin nodded and instantly changed her expression back to her cold demeanor. She took out a set of attire and floated it in front of Chen Xun, saying:
"The position of elder requires at least mid-Foundation Establishment to assume. However, since you have registered with the Alchemy Hall, you should no longer wear the Outer Disciples' attire."
"Yes, Senior Sister Zuo." Chen Xun cupped his hands. He had noticed that the elders wore blue-gray robes, which exuded a sense of stability.
Zuo Yiyin took out a blue-gray token from her storage bag, infused it with mana, and looked at Chen Xun. "Junior Brother Chen, I need a drop of your essence blood."
Chen Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, without any hesitation, he forced out a drop of essence blood from his body, which shot through the air.
The blue-gray token floated in mid-air, instantly absorbing Chen Xun's essence blood, emitting a blue light, as if recognizing its master, and flew directly towards Chen Xun, landing in his hand.
"This token is the restriction token for the Floating Light Profound Yin Grand Array. It allows entry into the true Spiritual Medicine Garden of the sect. I won't go over the rules again."

Zuo Yiyin sat down gracefully. "Those who have reached the second level of the Water Spirit Decision prefer quiet. Unless it's urgent, no one in the sect will disturb you, nor will they restrict your freedom."
"But." Zuo Yiyin hadn't finished speaking.
Chen Xun was about to express his gratitude when a cold voice came, like a bucket of cold water poured over him.
"The sect's Spiritual Medicine Garden is of utmost importance. If you leave the sect for twenty years without returning within a hundred years, you will be considered a traitor, and everyone in the Five Aggregates Sect will hunt you down."
Zuo Yiyin slightly raised her head, looking down at Chen Xun. "Though harsh, every country has its laws, and every sect has its rules. This is not targeted at you alone, Junior Brother Chen."
With the Floating Light Profound Yin Grand Array guarding the Spiritual Medicine Garden, it had a detection effect. Even a Golden Elixir phase cultivator couldn't silently take out a single spiritual herb seed from within. This was one of the Five Aggregates Sect's foundations.
