Lightning Storm Sect, Sect Master's Hall.
At this mont, a child around 7 or 8 years old was sitting cross-legged on a cultivation cushion at the center of the hall, with an old man seemingly in his 60's keeping an eye on him, a slightly worried expression on his face.
This child was nad Wei Qiushan, and he was the eighth prince of Great Wei. Despite only being 6 years old, he looked a bit older than other children and had a calm temperant, giving the impression of a child prodigy with an unyielding attitude.
That was what others thought of him.
In fact, Wei Qiushan was actually the reincarnation of a Great Immortal from the Upper Realm. He had awakened in the womb and started cultivating from there, and was already at the Fourth Level of Acupoint Opening Stage at birth.
He hid his cultivation and learned information about the world, biding his ti as he continued to cultivate. It appeared that Immortal Cultivators and the cultivation world had co to light before the secular world in the Second Great Mortal World, which is why he never revealed too much of himself for the ti being in case soone tried to kill him in the cradle.
He only revealed himself as a Lightning Spiritual Root a few weeks ago and was directly taken in as the Golden Core Realm Sect Master of the Lightning Storm Sect, a local Void Refinent power.
He didn't really need guidance, he just needed temporary protection till he had recovered so of his cultivation. Right now, he was already at the Third Stage of Qi Condensation Realm.
Of course, he didn't reveal his cultivation base. The old man standing not far from him was the Sect Master of the Lightning Storm Sect, and he was worried because Wei Qiushan was "attempting" to break through to the Acupoint Opening Stage.
Of course, no one in the mortal world could sense Wei Qiushan's true cultivation base due to the high level of the cultivation technique he cultivated, and as a reincarnated Immortal, he also had quite a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
He speculated that he could reach the Sixth Stage of Qi Condensation Realm by the ti he turned 10 years old and enter the Foundation Establishnt Realm before turning 18 years old.
An 18 year old Foundation Establishnt cultivator, even a great mortal world had probably not seen one in its entire history, right?
That's what Wei Qiushan thought. And he was even right, but only partially so.
The Myriad Paths Divine King, even though he only possessed Zhu Dong who was already way older than 18, still managed to cultivate to the Foundation Establishnt Realm in around 15 years. Tian Yongheng also started cultivating when he was 16 and managed to reach the Foundation Establishnt Realm at the age of 31, also taking 15 years.
Tian Yongheng's talent and cultivation technique were the most superior among these 3, but he took the sa ti as Zhu Dong because of the thin Spirit Qi in the Eternal Peak at that ti, while Zhu Dong, even with the Spirit Qi of the mortal world, had his past life experiences to aid him and he had already cultivated to a supre level once, making his path even easier. The sa went for Wei Qiushan.
At this mont, 3 figures suddenly appeared besides the old man without him noticing at all.
"S...Sect Master... There are a few guests who wish to et the young master..."
The Golden Core elder who was stationed in the Great Wei couldn't help but send a voice transmission to the old man, nervousness evident on his face.
Only then did the old man react, turning around to see Yan Jingfei, Jian Qi, and the Golden Core elder of his sect standing behind him.
He was stunned for a mont before a fury flashed in his eyes.
"You fool! Don't you know that my beloved disciple is trying to step onto the path to immortality right now? If he gets disturbed, can you handle the consequences!?"
He sent a voice transmission to the Golden Core elder, brimming with rage yet daring not to rebuke him loudly for fear of accidentally waking up Wei Qiushan.
The Golden Core elder shrank back in guilt, it was then the old man, supposedly the Sect Master of the Lightning Storm Sect, notice Yan Jingfei and Jian Qi.
He just glanced at Jian Qi before being montarily stunned by Yan Jingfei.
I can't see through her!
Is it a technique specifically to hide cultivation base? Or is her cultivation just that much greater than mine?
The anger in his eyes subsided a little as he thought of the latter possibility, yet he still glared at the Golden Core elder.
The Golden Core elder imdiately sent a voice transmission to the old man, explaining the identities of Yan Jingfei and Jian Qi. At his words, the old man seed as if struck by lightning.
Eldest disciple of the Eternal Peak!
Personal Disciples of the unimaginable realm existence!
He couldn't help but shiver inwardly. Fortunately, he didn't offend them upon eting, otherwise, the Lightning Storm Sect might have faced a fatal disaster.
He forced a flattering smile on his wrinkled face as he sent the two of them the sa voice transmission.
"Esteed guests, please forgive this old man for his rudeness. I didn't know you were such noble people."
At this mont, he didn't even dare to neglect Jian Qi, not even in the Innate Realm at the mont. Just the Personal Disciple of a Void Refinent expert had a position comparable to the upper echelons of his Lightning Storm Sect, let alone the Personal Disciple of a being beyond the Immortal Ascension Realm.
He wouldn't dare offend such a person even if he had ten tis the courage.
At his words, Yan Jingfei just offered a slight nod, her gaze fixed on Wei Qiushan ditating at the center of the room.
On the other hand, Jian Qi also looked at Wei Qiushan, yet he was suddenly stunned for an instance.
He's...only 6 year old?
Then how is he already at the Qi Condensation Realm? That too at the Third Stage!
How strange!
Jian Qi could easily see through Wei Qiushan's true cultivation base. The reason was simple.
He cultivated the Sword King Veneration Technique, a cultivation technique suited for Sword Cultivators and future Sword Immortals which was initially obtained by the system and later on given to Jian Qi by Tian Yongheng to cultivate.
The Sword King Veneration Technique's level was far higher than the cultivation technique cultivated by Wei Qiushan, thus, Jian Qi could discern the forr's cultivation base at a glance, specially since his own cultivation was much higher at the mont.
Even Yan Jingfei couldn't see through it, because her own cultivation technique stemd from the inheritance of her past life. It was obvious that the inheritance was weaker than Wei Qiushan's cultivation technique.
At this mont, Yan Jingfei's gaze was fixated on Wei Qiushan. To be more precise, at the cloud of fortune swirling over his head.
This child...is undoubtedly a son of heaven!
She imdiately felt thrilled. Although she knew that her and almost all the upper echelons of Eternal Peak were beings of imnse fortune, similar to the child in front of her, they were all found by her master. She was elated at the fact that she could also encounter such existences.
However, Jian Qi's voice transmission imdiately brought her back from her reverie.
Senior sister, this child is actually already at the Third Stage of Qi Condensation Realm. He's hiding his cultivation!
I can sense it because of the Sword King Veneration Technique bestowed upon by master. There's sothing strange about this child!
Yan Jingfei's eyes widened in surprise, staring incredulously at Wei Qiushan before her.
She couldn't sense his cultivation.
It ant he was cultivating a cultivation technique stronger than her own.
Her cultivation technique was retrieved from the inheritance of an ascended being!
As she thought of this, an inexplicable chill spread throughout her entire body.
Could it be... He's the reincarnation of an Immortal God!?
As soon as this thought took root, it wouldn't go away.
Why are so many reincarnated existences appearing all of a sudden?
Are we in a carnival of reincarnated Immortals?
Yan Jingfei forced herself to calm down despite the growing turmoil within her. She had to talk to her master about this matter after going back.
The way she looked at Wei Qiushan suddenly changed. The Sect Master of the Lightning Storm Sect also sensed the subtle shift in Yan Jingfei's attitude, but couldn't figure out the reason.
At this mont, Yan Jingfei sent him a voice transmission.
"Fellow daoist, I see this child is extrely talented, and wish to take him back to the Eternal Peak for cultivation. I wonder if you're willing?"
At these words, the Lightning Storm Sect Master's worst fear ca true. He forced a smile uglier than crying on his face as he cupped his fists.
"Of course, why wouldn't I be willing? The Eternal Peak is a great power in the world, among the strongest of our era. This child's full potential will be realized upon going there. But, fellow daoist, I can't make this decision myself. You have to ask the child yourself after he wakes up if he's willing."
Yan Jingfei nodded at his approval. She didn't feel any guilt whatsoever. This was how things worked in the world of Immortal Cultivation. Her status was higher than that of the Lightning Storm Sect, and the Eternal Peak's strength dwarfed all but the major factions of the world.
Strength determined hierarchy.
