Watching Li Ran and others disappear in the teleportation array, Zuo Chao couldn't help but sigh that Li Ran was worthy of being the person escorted by the Immortal Emperor Tianfen himself, and was very likely the disciple of that book. His ability to control the Purple Extreme Demon Flame was too strong. He could reach this level just after a breakthrough.
After sighing for a moment, Zuo Chao's mind moved, and he also disappeared into the clouds...
…
After returning to the sect and completing their tasks, Li Ran and the other six people separated and went about their own business. Ye Qian no longer had the expressionless look she had just now, but was now filled with joy. Needless to say, this was due to her genuine excitement for the spiritual water that was about to be obtained.
Li Ran returned to his residence and sat cross-legged in the training room. It was time for him to make a breakthrough. His biggest purpose in coming to Jinlong Mountain was to enter the Golden Dragon Secret Realm. However, if he wanted to enter the Golden Dragon Secret Realm as soon as possible, his current level of cultivation and the status of an outer disciple would make it difficult for him to even get in.
He also cannot improve his cultivation at an unreasonable speed, but with his colorful qualifications, he can show a cultivation speed that surpasses anyone else. Given his status in Jinlong Mountain, no one would dare to covet him even if his speed is beyond common sense.
After opening the system, Li Ran entered the interface of his own Li Feng clone and clicked the upgrade button in succession, directly raising his cultivation to the 6th level of the Human Immortal Stage. The 6th level of the Human Immortal Stage in the system is the pinnacle of the middle stage of the Human Immortal Stage when converted into the Immortal Realm. He is only one step away from entering the late stage of the Human Immortal Stage!
Although for Li Ran it was equivalent to several consecutive upgrades, in Zuo Chao's eyes it was just one upgrade. It was normal to have a breakthrough after returning from training, and the fact that Li Ran's cultivation level was directly upgraded to the peak of the middle stage once he broke through would only be regarded as a sign of strong aptitude.
"It's really not pleasant to have such a powerful person staying by my side. It's time to talk to the Sect Master!"
Li Ran still felt uncomfortable when he thought that there was a great Immortal Emperor who was probably observing him at all times, even though it was mainly for his own protection. He felt that this was a form of surveillance, even though he knew that this was not the intention of the Tiansha Sect's leader.
"Senior, could you please come out for a moment? I have something to discuss with the Sect Master!" Li Ran stood up and spoke directly.
Hearing Li Ran's words, Zuo Chao, who was hiding nearby, was shocked and looked a little confused. This kid actually knew that he had been protecting him all along? Impossible, the sect leader didn't tell Li Feng, and with his cultivation level, how could Li Feng have discovered him?
Although he was shocked, Zuo Chao still appeared in front of Li Ran in an instant and asked, "You always knew that I was protecting you?"
After saying this, Zuo Chao felt a little regretful, because this was a bit weird. He didn't know him, so why would this guy call him out?
"Yes, senior, thank you for protecting me. Please take me to see the sect leader. I have something to say!" Li Ran's face was calm.
Zuo Chao nodded and without saying much, he took Li Ran directly to the place where Wu Qi, the leader of Tiansha Sect, lived.
Seeing Zuo Chao bringing Li Ran along until old age, the slightly plump Wu Qi looked slightly surprised and nervous and asked, "Zuo Chao, why did you bring Li Feng here? Did something happen?"
Zuo Chao replied somewhat awkwardly: "Sect Master, Li Feng discovered me from the very beginning..."
Wu Qi was not surprised. He thought that for a genius personally escorted by the Immortal Emperor Tianfen, any exaggeration was understandable. After all, geniuses could not be inferred by common sense.
He was more cautious with Li Feng than holding him in his hands for fear of dropping him, or holding him in his mouth for fear of melting him, because Li Feng was very likely the disciple of the Immortal Master Zhenxian. Even if he was not, he could be taken away by the Immortal Master Zhenxian in front of countless immortal masters. It must be that his master was not an ordinary immortal master. Moreover, even if he was an ordinary immortal master, how could he treat Li Feng casually?
When a prodigy of Li Feng's caliber comes to their sect, the feelings of the sect leaders of direct branches like Wu Qi are very complicated. On the one hand, such a genius will become a huge network of contacts when he grows up. On the other hand, if he dies, his master will blame him, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
A mighty Immortal Emperor could establish a top-tier faction anywhere else, but this was Golden Dragon Mountain. Even Wu Qi, a mid-stage Immortal Emperor, would be a giant in the entire Three Realms. One should know that the strongest member of the Demon Realm's Mei Clan was only at the Demon Emperor stage, but in Golden Dragon Mountain, he was merely the head of a direct branch. While there weren't as many forces like him in the entire Golden Dragon Mountain, there were still quite a few...
On the surface, there are dozens of Immortal Lords in Jinlong Mountain, over a thousand Immortal Emperors, over ten thousand Immortal Kings, and tens of thousands of Immortal Kings. It is even more difficult to count those below the upper three realms. The territory of Jinlong Mountain is only a hundred billion light years on the surface, but who knows how many forces it controls secretly. Except for the sect leader Dongfang Cangyue and a few others, no one knows the true strength of Jinlong Mountain!
This number of Upper Three Realms experts might seem a bit exaggerated, but considering that Jinlong Mountain's territory spans nearly 100 billion light years, and even far more, and that they value geniuses, it's not surprising. After all, only a few geniuses appear in billions of light years. After billions of years, it's no surprise that there are so many Upper Three Realms masters...
This is also the confidence of Jinlong Mountain in becoming the number one force in the fairyland and even the three realms!
"Li Feng, is there something you want to talk to me about? Don't worry, just tell me..." Wu Qi laughed, not looking like the leader of a sect at all.
"Sect Master... I'd like to ask this senior to not hide by my side all the time. It feels like there's always someone around, like they're watching me. Even though I know you asked him to protect me..."
"In fact, I have a life-saving method given to me by my master. Even the powerful Immortal Lord cannot hurt me at all. I know you mean well, but it makes me feel uncomfortable to protect me like this!"
Li Ran spoke his thoughts out loud. He didn't care if Wu Qi would be embarrassed or not. Being constantly "monitored" by a powerful person was too inconvenient...
"So that's how it is. It was my negligence!" Wu Qi suddenly realized. He had completely forgotten that a genius who could be escorted by the Immortal Emperor Tianfen, how could he not have the means of life-saving bestowed by the Immortal Lord? He was completely over-worried.
"In that case, I will let Zuo Chao obey you from now on. If you have any problems or need help and are not sure, just call him directly!" Tianfen Immortal Emperor said with a smile.
He had no regard for the face of Zuo Chao, a powerful Immortal Emperor, and directly asked him to obey the orders of a mere outer disciple in the middle stage of Human Immortal!
But in reality, neither Zuo Chao nor Wu Qi felt bad at all. Especially Zuo Chao, he knew that with his own qualifications, he could never enter the Jinlong Mountain branch. Even now, at the peak of the Immortal Emperor stage, he was only able to become a guest official of the Tiansha Sect because of Wu Qi's relationship...
He was an orphan picked up by Wu Qi a long time ago. His aptitude was not even up to the level of red, otherwise he could have become a menial disciple of Jinlong Mountain. Wu Qi always kept him by his side and taught him, which enabled him to achieve his current level of cultivation. However, he was very clear about the gap between him and the geniuses in Jinlong Mountain Sect.
To put it bluntly, any powerful Immortal Emperor who was promoted from an outer disciple or even a menial disciple in Jinlong Mountain can easily defeat him. Many people can even surpass him by crossing levels. The gap is too big.
