The speed of my spellcasting stunned the Sect Master. He had not expected my grasp of magic to be so profound—it truly felt like second nature, with a clear trend toward evolving into minor divine abilities.
The Sect Master kindly advised me to stick to basic spells in the future, warning that I should not display such advanced techniques in front of outsiders. Furthermore, the Sect was preparing to set off. Although the secret realm would not open for another three months, it was better to arrive early; besides, the journey alone would take over two months. A massive group from our Sect was going this time—I heard there were several hundred people.
I returned to my own peak and gave simple instructions to my junior brothers and sisters, telling them to continue their rest and meditation as usual. In their spare time, they were to use the Spirit Rain Technique to fill the spirit lake, as that would be the foundation of our future water spirit vein. They were not to skimp on the Spirit Qi; they should spend it lavishly. Once the spirit vein was downgraded to a peak Tier 1, they were to plant my Five Elements spirit tree at the source to serve as the core. If I hadn't returned by the time the Five Elements vein had taken shape, they should consult the Sect on how to cultivate it. However, the Sect Master would help us raise it to a mid-low grade, so everyone needed to be careful not to let the grade drop again.
