Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger

He did not treat them differently and responded with courtesy.

This immediately made the two of them somewhat pleasantly surprised.

After all, they had seen many outstanding disciples of the sect, most of whom were very proud and arrogant. While Junior Brother Meng didn’t exude arrogance, he was also approachable.

“I’ve just finished seclusion and haven’t prepared any tea. Please forgive me, Senior Brothers.” Meng Changqing said with a smile.

It seemed that although these two knew Wei Qing, they were probably not undercover agents of the demonic path.

“How could it be, how could it be,”

Wei Qing waved his hand, “These worldly formalities are not important in cultivation. There’s no need to worry about them.”

“Well, I wonder what business the three Senior Brothers have here today?” Meng Changqing asked.

“It’s nothing, just came to see Junior Brother Meng and get acquainted,” Wei Qing said with a smile, “After all, a genius-level disciple like you, who wouldn’t want to get to know you in advance and make friends?”

“I see.” Meng Changqing nodded.

A hint of a smile flashed in his heart.

Wow, I was just thinking about how to add this person as a friend, and he’s taking the initiative.

This guy is really proactive, which aligns with my thoughts. If you’re strong enough, you don’t even need to make the first move. Others will come to you willingly to become your friend.

“I also intend to get to know you all.” After coming to his senses, Meng Changqing said.

Although only Wei Qing had the value of being added as a friend, in this situation, he couldn’t ignore the feelings of the other two present.

Moreover, the attributes obtained from them could also be decomposed.

“Haha, in that case, we are friends from now on,” Wei Qing readily agreed.

The other two also showed a hint of joy on their faces.

Being friends with a genius was a good thing, even if it was just verbally.

Ding!

[Successfully added Wei Qing as a friend!”

[Current Favorability: One Star]

[Current Favorability: One Star]

[Obtained Attribute: ‘Purple Sun Sword Art’ (Partial Mastery)]

The voice of the system kept ringing in his mind, but Meng Changqing couldn’t help but sigh slightly.

He didn’t get what he wanted.

Well, he couldn’t always be so lucky, directly obtaining what he wanted from so many attributes.

But it seemed that an extra reward had been triggered.

Attribute Acquisition Card?

What is this thing?

If I don’t understand, just ask.

He directly called out to the system in his mind.

[Use the Attribute Acquisition Card to directly obtain one desired attribute from a friend.]

Upon hearing this, Meng Changqing’s eyes lit up with joy.

Wow, it’s like losing something in the east and gaining something in the west. Although he didn’t get the desired attribute during the friend addition process, he could obtain it with the Attribute Acquisition Card.

“System, acquire ‘Great Transcendent Mystical Golden Sword Technique’.”

Without any hesitation, Meng Changqing said.

Ding!

[Consuming one Attribute Acquisition Card!]

[Obtained ‘Great Transcendent Mystical Golden Sword Technique’ (Partial Mastery)]

Upon hearing the sound, Meng Changqing breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn’t immediately integrate it, as the current situation was not suitable.

“Junior Brother Meng has just entered the true disciple status not long ago and has been cultivating all along. You might not be very familiar with the true disciple lineup, right?” Wei Qing said.

The purpose of coming today was to familiarize themselves with each other and deepen their relationship.

“That’s right, I hope Brother Wei can explain it.” Meng Changqing withdrew his attention and nodded slightly.

Being new here, he was indeed not very clear with it, and he had planned to go out today to learn more.

But Wei Qing’s arrival saved him a lot of effort.

This guy is really a good person. I almost feels bad about killing him.

Forget it, I’ll help you bury the body deeply in the future.

It seems that my heart is still relatively kind.

However, Meng Changqing didn’t necessarily have to take action himself. Since he obtained the attributes, he could report them to the sect.

But there’s a problem.

It’s not easy to explain how he discovered them.

You should know that the sect is very strict when it comes to checking for demonic techniques. Every year, disciples need to undergo physical examinations by the elders of each vein. If there’s even a trace of demonic technique, they would be caught on the spot. Wei Qing, who had been able to mingle in the sect for so many years, obviously had some means. If the sect couldn’t find anything, he might even turn around and accuse Meng Changqing of practicing demonic techniques, burdening him with false charges.

“Wait a minute, I remember getting a secret technique from Auntie.

“It’s called the Palm Lotus Demon Sealing Technique.

“Back then, Auntie used this technique to check for the cultivation of demonic techniques.

“But what if this technique also can’t detect it? After all, our own sect is a major power and should have various secret techniques for checking demonic techniques.”

In a short period of time, Meng Changqing thought of many things.

Forget it, let’s talk about it later.

“Our sect has about five hundred true disciples.

“Not counting the main peak, each vein has about eighty people.”

Wei Qing began to explain.

Upon hearing this, Meng Changqing’s heart moved slightly.

There were about three to four thousand inner disciples, but there were only five hundred true disciples. The difference in numbers was indeed large, but it’s also normal.

After all, it’s not easy to reach the Sea Cleaving Realm. Moreover, there seemed to be an age limit for true disciples. Once they exceed the age of thirty-five, their true disciple status would be automatically revoked. This seemed to correspond to the Hidden Dragon Ranking, which was aimed at young talents from the Sea Cleaving Realm to the Dao Creation Realm.

Wei Qing continued to narrate.

Every detail deepened Meng Changqing’s understanding of the true disciple hierarchy.

For example, the specific talents of each vein’s genius disciples, the powerful true disciples, and the division of true disciples strength, etc.

After half an hour…

“That’s about it,” Wei Qing said with a dry mouth.

He wanted to drink some tea, but there was nothing in front of him.

He could only moisten his mouth and pretend not to be thirsty.

If it weren’t for wanting to get closer to this Meng Changqing, he wouldn’t have wasted so much effort.

“Brother Wei’s explanation has truly broadened my horizons,” Meng Changqing said.

This was the truth.

He had already considered the true disciples to be strong, but after listening to Wei Qing’s words, he realized that he had underestimated them.

Those who ranked at the top were indeed excessively strong.

However, Meng Changqing didn’t belittle himself either.

His foundation was not shallow at all. He was even stronger than most true disciples.

After integrating the ‘Great Transcendent Mystical Golden Sword Technique’ later, he would have even more confidence in facing opponents at the Sea Cleaving Realm!

“By the way, Brother Wei, you have talked a lot, but you have said very little about the main peak. Why is that?”

As if thinking of something, Meng Changqing asked.

“The main peak, huh,” Wei Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, “The main peak lineage has always been very mysterious and does not usually recruit disciples. It seems to be related to the history of our sect.

“I’m not very clear about the specifics.”

“Is that so.” Meng Changqing nodded slightly.

Although their sect was listed as one of the four major powers in Tianling Prefecture alongside the Giant Spirit Sect, Flame Sun Valley, and Wind and Cloud City, the other three powers had only gradually risen in the past five hundred years. In contrast, their sect seemed to have a long history and deep foundation.
