"You broke through to the next realm so quickly, yet your foundation is so weak. What's the point?"
"Even if one truly becomes an immortal, one can still be killed by mortals."
Su Lin was very disappointed. He had thought that a genius cultivator like Wang Qingyue, whose current realm was much higher than his own, should be able to spar with him for a few rounds.
But who would have thought that his mere probing glimmer of light, without even using any offensive techniques, nearly cost Wang Qingyue his life.
Such a difference was like heaven and earth, making Su Lin himself unable to believe that Wang Qingyue could be so weak.
It should be noted that the spiritual energy he just released did not contain even a trace of immortal light; it was perfectly normal Golden Core spiritual energy, and certainly not some cunning or ruthless method.
"Master..."
Wang Qingyue lowered her head in shame, unsure how to explain.
All cultivators in the world aim to continuously break through their cultivation levels. Only those who reach the Mahayana stage can transcend tribulations and ascend to become immortals. This is a correct path that has been proven countless times.
The goal of all cultivators is to achieve a breakthrough as quickly as possible, and Wang Qingyue is no exception.
"Let's take it slow. Don't try to reach the Nascent Soul stage within the next five years."
Su Lin put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Wait until you can break through this beam of light before you consider breaking through."
"Yes, Master."
Wang Qingyue clasped his hands in a respectful bow and bowed deeply to receive the instruction: "I understand what Master has said. The foundation of cultivation is of utmost importance, and we should proceed with steadiness step by step."
After a long while, when he no longer heard his master's instructions, Wang Qingyue looked up and saw that Su Lin was no longer there.
Master has left again, and I don't know where he went.
My performance just now was truly disappointing.
Wang Qingyue sighed deeply and reflected on himself. He was clearly of a higher level than his master, yet he couldn't even force his master to use his full move. He was as weak as an ant.
This is a painful experience for anyone; it's enough to break down one's defenses and crush one's pride.
Wang Qingyue silently pushed open the door to his residence. As soon as he entered, he saw a purple jade bottle on the table.
No, this bottle isn't purple; it's the presence of a divine substance within that makes it appear so mystical.
Beside the jade bottle, there was a jade slip covering it; it was a manual on the Golden Elixir cultivation method.
Wang Qingyue opened the jade slip, entered it with his divine sense, and heard the voice left behind by Su Lin.
"This is my Golden Core cultivation method. It is the same method as yours, but it contains all my cultivation insights and experiences after entering the Golden Core stage. You can use it to verify your own."
"This jade bottle contains half a wisp of Heavenly Tribulation Qi, which will not shake your current path to immortality. It is a great tonic, and its amount is just right for those at the Golden Core stage to refine."
"Remember, cultivation is better slow than fast. Becoming an immortal is not about the length of time, but about whether you have truly put your heart and soul into it."
Su Lin left behind only a few divine thoughts, focusing on the essentials and avoiding unnecessary words.
"Master..."
Wang Qingyue silently picked up the bottle, her fingers tightening slightly.
He didn't understand what Heavenly Tribulation Qi was, but since it was given to him by his master, it was a blessing.
I am still too clumsy, far from being as amazing as my master, and I have failed to live up to the reputation of being a genius.
I need to work harder in the future to live up to the title of the chief disciple.
......
As it turns out, Wang Qingyue is not a worthy opponent for him after he leaves the pass.
It seems that among all the members of the clan, only Li Xingtian has this qualification.
Su Lin was very disappointed. He even had feelings for Lyanna. Before leaving Wang Qingyue's place, he made a special trip to see Lyanna.
The result was that he was rejected.
Lyanna had no desire to fight at all; she lacked even the urge to fire an arrow to test it.
She bluntly stated that she couldn't hit the target, and she couldn't even grasp Su Lin's aura. Even though the person was standing right in front of her, the arrow couldn't lock onto him.
Her arrow lock-on effect was completely ineffective, and Lyanna knew she was no match for her.
"Should I go down the mountain to find my master? Or should I continue my seclusion and wait for his return?"
As Su Lin pondered this, he returned to the main hall. He had barely sat down when Xiao Linlin rushed over upon hearing the news.
"Brother, are you going into seclusion again later?"
"Not necessarily, why?"
Su Lin noticed the seriousness on Xiao Linlin's face and asked softly, "Something happened?"
"Well, there's something I'm not sure about."
Xiao Linlin sat down next to Su Lin and said in a deep voice, "An outer sect has extended an invitation to our Xiaoyun Temple to attend the grand ceremony of the Immortal Sect."
The Immortal Sect Grand Awards is a world-class event organized by the nine major immortal sects. Its purpose is to assess the potential of each sect, select the best, and recruit talented individuals to join the immortal sects.
On the surface, this is a great opportunity to open up the path to immortality and a grand event that will benefit all cultivators in the world.
But for the various sects, this was not a good thing; it was the nine major immortal sects openly trying to snatch people away.
For the nine major immortal sects, this matter can both suppress the development potential within each sect and remove potential talents, and also allow them to replenish their ranks with fresh blood and hard-working fighters in a timely manner.
Each sect was fully aware of the situation, but they had no reason to refuse or resist; once an invitation arrived, they had to go.
If you don't go, you'll bear the consequences.
This grand event is held every ten years. In principle, some sects are not required to attend. Xiaoyun Temple is one of the sects with exemptions. This point has been made clear by Jia Zhengyi before, so there is no need to worry about the Immortal Sect snatching away the geniuses within the sect.
But the truth is, on that day, the Immortal Sect's invitation came to the sect's gate.
Jia Zhengyi's initial promises have now become empty words.
This may also mean that even the ancestor played by the mimic could not suppress the interests behind this matter, and insisted on involving Xiaoyun Temple.
"Looks like someone's watching us?"
Su Lin suddenly smiled, and Xiao Linlin nodded: "I think so too."
