This might be a discussion aimed at clarifying each other’s doubts, but not all discussions led to conclusive outcomes.
In the end, Lu Zhiying could only sit there unhappily while quietly listening in to the rest of the discussion, reluctantly accepting the fact that her own question would be going unanswered.
But that could not be helped as well.
Nobody here knew the answer to her question, and neither did they really contemplate about such a matter.
After all, they were more focused on exploring and understanding the various cultivation paths.
So what if it was really as Lu Zhiying had said, that there were more than two people out there with essence energy that shared the same attributes?
How would that affect them in any way?
It was not as though they could go hunt down the person who shared the same attributes as them and rob them of their essence energy!
Even if they wanted to, how would they know where to find such a person in the first place?
And apart from Lu Zhiying, the rest of the group were all at different stages of the Essence Gathering realm.
Because of that, they had a far deeper appreciation towards the topic of the earlier cultivation lecture – essence energy – and were extremely interested in deciphering the words of the elder from earlier.

“Are you kidding? Why would I do something like that and risk hurting my vocal cords?” Bo Fei shrugged. “Are you trying to take my part as well?”

While the rest were busy bickering, Huang An had managed to set up a zither and settled down behind it comfortably.
“What’s going on?” Lu Zhiying asked in confusion.
</a> They were busy discussing about the cultivation lecture one minute ago, and now there was suddenly a flute and a zither?
And what was this about vocal cords?
“Oh I forgot to mention this to you just now,” Gu Qiansi turned towards Lu Zhiying apologetically. “We are not just here to discuss about the cultivation lecture. In addition to that, we are also here to practise for our upcoming performance.”
“A performance? As in a music performance?” Lu Zhiying was genuinely surprised.
“That’s right,” Zhao Yunxiao nodded while carelessly wiping the flute in his hands. “Do you know the famous Sentient Light Performance Group that is taking the Duyuan Empire by storm? You can say that we are the upcoming Sentient Light Performance Group, also known as the Flying Shell Performance Group!”
“Flying Shell Performance Group?” Lu Zhiying frowned. “Who came up with the name?”
“See? See that reaction? I told you that the name is bad! Now we are stuck with this horrible name!” Bo Fei complained. “I knew we should have gone with World Best Performance Group!”

“That’s even worse, Senior Martial Brother Bo...” Huang An commented timidly.
“

“Yes!” Huang An answered in her usual enthusiastic manner.
“Ready,” Zhao Yunxiao and Gu Qiansi answered in unison.
“Good. Let’s start.”
Huang An’s fingers moved without hesitation after Bo Fei gave the cue to start, and Lu Zhiying’s eyes immediately widened in amazement.
Along with the first strum of the zither strings, Huang An’s temperament seemed to have transformed all of a sudden.
Each movement of her hands was light and graceful, as though they were dancing atop the zither in a manner that was worthy of a performance on its own. Her slender fingers plucked at the zither strings with delicate precision, giving off an aura of seemingly unhurried mannerism, one contrary to the actual speed at which the fingers moved.
Bo Fei’s voice might be powerful and inspiring, but Gu Qiansi’s was simply enchanting.
Her sweet voice provided a softness that instantly filled up a void that did not even seem to be there in the beginning, yet appeared to be ever so obvious the moment it was filled.
The army of ten thousand no longer rampaged wantonly across the land. Instead, they took in their surroundings and became one with nature, as though they had always been an extension of the land itself.
They no longer disrupted the serenity of the lands, but added to it instead.
They no longer caused the numerous lives of the lands to scatter in fear, but moved along with them instead.
Faced with such a magical scene, Lu Zhiying could hear her heart beating hard from pure excitement and awe.
So this was the music of cultivators!
In her heart, Lu Zhiying could not help but wonder.
Now that she had joined the Black Tortoise Sect and became a cultivator in her own right, would it be possible for her to do the same?
