"Now, at nearly 160 years old, he has broken through to the Purple Mansion stage!"
"Although I am fifty or sixty years slower than ordinary geniuses, I should be content with my talent."
"Breaking through to the Purple Mansion stage grants a lifespan of over four hundred years... As long as I follow the proper path, with my current status and resources, my chances of becoming a Golden Core True Person are not low!!"
Lin Xiuyuan was overjoyed. After more than five years of seclusion, he had finally broken through to the Purple Mansion stage! Only he knew how much anxiety and hope he had felt.
Lin Xiuyuan smiled as he looked at the two figures ahead and stepped forward to greet them with a cupped hand.
"Very good, you've broken through to the Purple Mansion stage in one fell swoop. Hehe, even if the Han family wants to cause you trouble, they'll have to think twice now."
Wang Yangshan was very happy and laughed heartily.
Wang Qiuhe smiled and cupped her hands, saying, "Congratulations, Junior Brother, on successfully breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm. With your talent, the path to the Golden Core realm has already been paved. You are likely to become a Golden Core True Person in the future."
"I am deeply grateful for Master's guidance. I am able to be where I am today without Master's help."
Lin Xiuyuan bowed respectfully to Wang Yangshan, his eyes filled with gratitude.
There's no doubt about how Wang Yangshan treated him. Although he was only a nominal disciple, Wang Yangshan treated him like a personal disciple, a teacher, a friend, and a family member.
They did their best in terms of resources and guidance, and were willing to protect him from all harm!
Lin Xiuyuan looked at Wang Qiuhe, cupped his hands in greeting, and said with a smile, "Senior Sister is joking. Although everything is going smoothly and steadily now, the path of cultivators is full of variables. How can we be certain about the higher realms? Besides, my aptitude is only average, with a little talent in talismanic arts. I can only strive to climb higher."
"Speaking of which, I haven't even had a chance to congratulate Senior Sister on successfully breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm. In my opinion, with Senior Sister's talent, the possibility of her becoming a Golden Core Ancestor in the future is much greater than that of Junior Brother!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Qiuhe's smile deepened, and the slight annoyance in her heart dissipated.
This slight frustration wasn't directed at Lin Xiuyuan.
However, it is inevitable that some problems will arise.
After all, he was originally a genius of the Lingxiao Heaven. Although he was constrained by his family and had limited resources, the gap between him and those geniuses who had broken through to the Purple Mansion stage was not large. He was just a little behind in pace.
For example, the competition for the top spiritual master is not based primarily on combat strength, so falling behind in this aspect is not a big deal.
However, since Lin Xiuyuan appeared, his records have been unprecedented and will never be repeated.
The talent she displayed was unmatched, not to mention her, even by those disciples who had broken through to the Purple Mansion realm.
Now, with the emergence of such a secret realm, they have made great contributions... It's as if they've been pulled up a whole level!
It can be said that with Lin Xiuyuan around, these geniuses of Lingxiao originally had a 40% to 50% chance of competing for the top spot, but now they only have a 10% to 20% chance.
It's inevitable that feelings of helplessness, jealousy, and resentment will arise, tangling together to create a sense of unease.
It wasn't specifically targeted at Lin Xiuyuan!
Wang Qiuhe felt a little better after hearing what Lin Xiuyuan said. Although her chances of winning the chief position were not great, her path to the Golden Core stage was better than his, after all, she was a genius with a single spiritual root.
Now that he has successfully broken through to the Purple Mansion realm, he is looking forward to the Golden Core realm.
Wang Qiuhe's smile deepened, and she waved her hand, saying:
"Alright, alright, let's stop praising each other. It's already a wonderful story that we've all achieved the Purple Mansion realm and have the chance to reach the Golden Core realm. If we keep praising each other, Grandpa will probably be secretly too proud to believe it."
Wang Qiuhe glanced at Wang Yangshan, who was smiling broadly. The corners of his mouth were so upturned that even a Golden Core cultivator would find it hard to suppress them, so she couldn't help but tease him.
Wang Yangshan remained smiling, showing no annoyance whatsoever. In fact, his smile deepened, revealing just how pleased he was. "Isn't that right? Two disciples with the Purple Mansion level—who wouldn't be proud of that? Hehe."
Wang Qiuhe smiled and then changed the subject, saying, "Alright, I won't disturb you any longer, Junior Brother. Now is the time for you to continue consolidating your cultivation. We'll hold a banquet for you later to celebrate, and then we can go to the Spirit Spring Cave together to cultivate in seclusion!"
"The Spirit Spring Cave?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes.
Seeing this, Wang Yangshan put away his smile and said seriously, "The Spirit Spring Cave is one of the greatest opportunities that you talented disciples can enjoy after breaking through to the Purple Mansion stage."
“The spiritual veins in the world are divided into grades. The higher the grade of the spiritual vein, the more likely it is to give birth to divine and spiritual objects. For example, the Dragon Jade was born from a high-grade spiritual mine!”
"Naturally, the superior spiritual vein occupied by our Cloud Soaring Sect also produces treasures, namely the Spirit Spring. I suppose you should know a little about it. It is the core and essence of the entire spiritual vein, where the Supreme Elder has been cultivating for many years."
"Considering the continuation of the sect, the founder used the spiritual spring as a base and extended another spiritual spring. About one-third of it was used to build several secret cultivation chambers, which were used in batches to seal the spiritual energy. Each chamber was opened once every two hundred years and could be used by elite disciples for sixty years of cultivation."
"Those spiritual spring caves, even if they can't compare to the environment of the three great secret realms, are at most only a few levels behind. The spiritual springs there are comparable to the richness of top-grade spiritual veins!"
"It is most suitable for you disciples who have just broken through to the next level to cultivate. In the entire sect, only the elite disciples can occupy a spot when they break through to the Purple Mansion realm. Then they will become Golden Core Ancestors. So you must cherish it."
"One or two years is enough to consolidate your realm. The remaining time is for you to break through to the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm as soon as possible."
"During this period, the sect's resources will be tilted towards you, and you will have tens of thousands of contribution points available for your disposal each year, as well as quotas for other resources, etc."
"This is the benefit our sect provides to its elite disciples!"
Wang Yangshan paused for a moment, then smiled when he saw the intense interest in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes. He continued, "The reason for this is that after the sixty-year term, there is still a sixty-year limit."
"This stage is the posting to guard the area, which can also be regarded as an assessment. According to past experience, each generation has two sixty-year periods, one to assess progress and the other to assess ability and character, and finally the chief position is determined by the opinions of the Elder Council and the Supreme Elder."
"According to the previous rules, you have made great contributions, and as long as your performance during these two sixty-year periods is not too bad, you are basically guaranteed the chief position. However, your generation is a little different because you have run into the Great Yue Sword Tournament!"
"But I estimate that as long as you don't fall too far behind in the Great Yue Sword Tournament, you'll still be able to secure the top spot. You should prepare for that..."
