BAM

Rudra woke up from his stupor after a slap hit him across his face

"Good Kid, I thought you had gone senile from joy." the Old Man laughed.

"You can't go on the cultivation path

"The Immortal Spirit only shows your potential, not your future prospects remember that kid many a genius die each year despite having the strongest Immortal Spirit."

Rudra quickly peered into his Dantian disregarding the lecture given by Old Man.

What he saw inside his Dantian surprised him there was a small pool of water and there it was a smaller version of the most epic creature he had ever seen.

Suddenly a scene flashed through his mind Timingila opened its mouth and devoured the Empyrean Whale whole.

Rudra shuddered at the scene.' Fuck not epic I take back my words.'

Rudra also paid his respects to the innocent whale spirit that wanted to be his Immortal Spirit.

Looking back inside his Dantian where now there were three different Immortal spirits present.

"Wait, three?" Rudra looked inside his Dantian to see a cracked Mountain, a pool of water on the other side of his Dantian where a Timingila the size of the cracked mountain was swimming in the pool of water which was too small for him causing his tail to stick out of the water, and then his eyes fell on a tiny turtle that swam out of the pool of water and started to walk towards the mountain perhaps intimidated by the terrifying Timingila.

"When did this pipsqueak come in here?" Rudra looked closely at the tiny thing crawling away.

This was when Rudra realized that this little thing was neither a turtle or a tortoise it was instead a Terrapin.

"Looks like I would need to research more about you little fella."

It was a sharp contrast to his two massive Immortal Spirits being only a small terrapin.

But somehow he felt most attached to the turtle he realized that the cracked mountain was the one belonging to Rishi, the Empyrean Whale had chosen to enter his Dantian after he put Yali's blood in the well.

The terrifying and overbearing Timingila was due to the chant from the Exiled Demon Sutra.

Only this small terrapin had answered his call and accepted him.

"Don't worry little thing I will take care of you." he returned his attention to the old man who was no patting him on the back.

"HAHA, brat don't leave now; let me finish with the rest of the kids then I will have a chat with you."

Rudra moved to an adjacent room and started cultivating Raving River Qi.

"It's awesome my rate of Water Qi absorption is now nearly double the rate of Earth Qi absorption." Rudra laughed merrily.

By the time Old Man came to see him, he had broken through to the 2nd stage of Qi condensation.

"Haha, it truly is a blessed day." Rudra woke up from his meditative state after hearing Old Man enter the room he was in.

"Follow me you two." Old Man beckoned at them to follow him as he dashed towards the center of the sect to the largest boat in the area.

"Let's go meet with the Branch head of Spirit River Sect." Old Man entered into the boat before them.

After two seconds he came back and carried them both into the boat.

Feeling himself fly Rudra came to realize that the old man was a cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage.

He reminded himself to be more respectful to, this old man in the future.
