I Have A Disciple Simulator

Demons of the Demon Race have a longer lifespan than human cultivators of the same realm, but they are restrained by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder and have a lower success rate in crossing their tribulations.

If it weren't for the Demon Emperor Cauldron, Ji Xuan might have perished under the relentless Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.

When the Heavenly Tribulation ended, to everyone's surprise, Ji Xuan was struck by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder into revealing her true form—a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox with nine tails, white as snow.

"Although the Demon Race enjoys longevity, they also have disadvantages, with a low success rate in crossing tribulations."

Lu Changsheng fed the injured Ji Xuan a Flood Dragon's Golden Core and used his True Qi to help her refine the demon power, so she could recover from her injuries as quickly as possible.

"Disciple thanks Master, if not for you, disciple feared she might not have overcome the Heavenly Tribulation."

Ji Xuan also knew that it was only by relying on the Demon Emperor Cauldron that she was able to successfully overcome the tribulation, hence she was deeply grateful to Lu Changsheng.

"Since you have received your master's kindness, if you attain the Dao in the future, you should practice good deeds and not act recklessly."

"Disciple will keep in mind Master's instructions."

Ji Xuan took this matter to heart.

Ji Xuan successfully entered the Void Refinement Realm, becoming one of Mount Shu's Supreme Elders of the Void Refinement Realm.

Mount Shu is not without Immortal Cranes, Spirit Apes, and Elders of the Nascent Soul Realm and Dao Palace Realm in human form, but there are few Supreme Elders of demon origin.

Lu Changsheng then passed on Demon Race Skills and magical treasures to Ji Xuan.

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan a Heaven Rank low-grade Cultivation Technique "Immortal Demon Canon" and received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator Thousandfold Return Reward: a Heaven Rank top-grade Cultivation Technique "Demon God True Jue".]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan a medium-grade Innate Spirit Treasure "Fire Fox Demon Sword" and received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator Thousandfold Return Reward: a low-grade Immortal Artifact "Divine Fox Flame Light Sword".]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan a low-grade Immortal Artifact "Fox Demon Flame Light Sword" and received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator Two Hundredfold Return Reward: a medium-grade Immortal Artifact "Chaotic Demon Fire Sword".]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan a Heaven Rank top-grade Swordsmanship "Dance of the Enchanting City" and received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator Three Hundredfold Return Reward: a Heaven Rank low-grade Swordsmanship "City-Overthrowing Sword Song".]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan a low-grade Immortal Artifact "Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron" and received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator Hundredfold Return Reward: a medium-grade Immortal Artifact "Yin Yang Nine Dragons Cauldron".]

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Ji Xuan a top-grade Innate Treasure "Aurora Pearl" and received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator Hundredfold Return Reward: a low-grade Immortal Artifact "Illusionary Treasure Pearl".]

Lu Changsheng generously bestowed many treasures at once, even giving Ji Xuan his first Immortal Artifact "Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron" and receiving the Yin Yang Nine Dragons Cauldron in return.

The Yin Yang Nine Dragons Cauldron, like the Golden Crow Divine Furnace, is a medium-grade Immortal Artifact, which Lu Changsheng used to make Body Refinement Elixirs.

Afterwards, Lu Changsheng performed Power-infusing Initiation on Ji Xuan, and the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator returned 60,000 years of Heavenly Cultivation.

Carrying several superb magical treasures and Cultivation Techniques, Ji Xuan left the cave dwelling, feeling deeply moved.

Her master had even bestowed his very first Immortal Artifact upon her.

[Ding, your disciple Ji Xuan's realm has risen from the Dao Palace Realm to the Void Refinement Realm, and you have received the Disciple Realm Advancement Reward: a Demon Race Treasured Fragment x1.]

A second Demon Race Treasured Fragment?

Lu Changsheng had almost forgotten he already possessed one Demon Race Treasured Fragment.

Now with two, there would be a chance to combine them into a Demon Race Ultimate Treasure in the future.

In the five years following Ji Xuan's entry into the Void Refinement Realm, Daoist Earth Hound, the mountain-guarding divine beast of Qingyun Peak, often received guidance from Lu Changsheng and was occasionally bestowed Elixir Pills as a reward for guarding the gate, he unexpectedly stepped into the Void Refinement Realm himself.

When the Heavenly Tribulation ended, Daoist Earth Hound, bruised and battered, climbed out from the crater left by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, in a sorry state but thrilled, he howled to the sky, "Awoo~~~ I never expected, I, Daoist Earth Hound, would see the day I became a Void Refinement Realm expert! Hahaha, perhaps there'll be a day when I devour the heavens and the earth!"

Daoist Earth Hound reverted to his big yellow dog form, wagging his tail as he ran toward Lu Changsheng's cave dwelling to report the joyous news, repeatedly kowtowing, "Master above, your disciple has entered the Void Refinement Realm thanks to your grace. Without Master, disciple would have spent a lifetime in Huang State, only circling within the Dao Palace Realm.

Master has led disciple onto the true path of cultivation, for which disciple will be eternally grateful!"

"..."

Lu Changsheng only occasionally offered guidance to Daoist Earth Hound, an external disciple, and sometimes gave him a few Elixir Pills out of boredom.

Daoist Earth Hound proved himself diligent, having advanced to the Void Refinement Realm and becoming one of Mount Shu's Supreme Elders.

This way, Mount Shu now had two Supreme Elders of demon origin.

"I bestow these Cultivation Techniques and Elixir Pills upon you."

Although there were no rewards returned for bestowing upon Daoist Earth Hound, Lu Changsheng was not short of Elixir Pills and Cultivation Techniques. He casually offered some to Daoist Earth Hound as a chance for transformation, and if in the future he did good deeds and even ascended to the Immortal Realm, it would be considered a great merit.

"Disciple, thanks Master."

Daoist Earth Hound hadn't expected to receive anything when he came to report the good news, so he was overjoyed by Lu Changsheng's generosity.

The master was indeed very generous to an external disciple like himself. What an extraordinary person the master was!

"If disciple can ascend to the Immortal Realm one day, I swear I will continue to guard the mountain gate for Master!"

Daoist Earth Hound kowtowed repeatedly.

Following the Demon Lord leads to three days of hunger out of nine.

Yet following Lu Changsheng provides a steady supply of Elixir Pills for merely watching the gate, and in a few decades, one could advance from the Dao Palace Realm Stage 6 to the Void Refinement Realm.

If one could ascend to the Immortal Realm as the mountain-guarding divine beast, why not?

Other Demon Race Loose Cultivators did not have such fortune!

Daoist Earth Hound even made plans for the future; if he could ultimately cross the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Realm, he would continue serving as Lu Changsheng's mountain-guarding divine beast.

Who knows, by serving as the mountain-guarding beast, he might just achieve immortality.
