But that one ti, Li An interfered, delaying him for hundreds of years.
This year, Xiang Yuntian retreated for a breakthrough in Refining Void, and officially succeeded!
Even Xiang Yuntian’s disciple, An Li, caught up quickly, breaking through to Divinity Transformation.
And it was only three months ago that Li An finally broke through to the late stage of Divinity Transformation.
Amidst the entire Dao Sect’s frantic rivalry, he remained steady, and coupled with his naturally slow pace, falling behind was normal.
"Old turtle, you really are slow!"
On Evergreen Peak, in Li An’s cave abode, everyone gathered joyfully, and Xiang Yuntian couldn’t help but say, "Old Gu, is there any way to improve one’s talent?"
Gu Canye smiled and said, "The strongest way to improve talent is the Demon Skill, but unfortunately..."
He shook his head, the aning was clear without words.
Li An had no chance!
Moreover, within the Dao Sect, any pills or opportunities that forcefully improve talent are actually not recognized.
"Damn Jun Yelin..."
Xiang Yuntian couldn’t help but feel indignant, saying, "One day I’ll kill him!"
"However, there’s still hope... Recently, there’s been so movent in the Southern Sea."
Gu Canye suddenly ntioned, and Li An’s heart stirred, asking, "What?"
"The Southern Sea is vast and boundless. Even the Dao Sect doesn’t know where its boundaries lie, and there are even rumors that the end of the Southern Sea leads to the Immortal Realm... Haha, though the rumor might not be true, there are indeed many strange incidents on the Southern Sea."
"The sea is said to have mystical islands like Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou, and whenever they appear, they bring great opportunities."
"And the New Continent is actually a new land ford by various major forces bringing soil from the lower realm to fill the sea. Ever since its establishnt, the Dao Sect has been monitoring the situation there. According to reports from the New Continent, a few years ago, a typhoon swept across from the sea, hitting the New Continent. Although it caused countless casualties, it also transford many people’s talents, and there were even reports of celestial talents..."
"It’s very mysterious."
"Even the sect’s high-level officials are preparing to send people there to bring back so celestial talents for study. There’s already a group of sect elites over there, with Li Yunxiao and Tan Qingxue among them, reportedly gaining a lot."
Gu Canye explained one by one.
Li An’s heart was very heavy, a typhoon creating celestial talents...
Did the great changes his master, Purple Fairy, ntioned finally co?
He felt an inexplicable sense of urgency.
"But the situation over there is unclear. I’ll keep an eye out. If there’s an opportunity to change your talent, Brother Li might have a chance..."
Gu Canye said.
"Forget it, this doesn’t align with sect rules..."
Li An said.
"Brother Li, sect rules are only set for diocrity!"
Gu Canye was very straightforward, "What destiny, what Daoist natural law, as Sword Cultivators, we only seek to follow our hearts!"
"Right!"
Xiang Yuntian also spoke up, saying, "Drink!"
...
Because of what Gu Canye said, Li An also started to closely monitor the developnts over on the New Continent.
Regarding the matter of avoiding disasters and becoming immortal, Li An has long had a long-term plan in his mind.
Apart from cultivating stealthily in the Dao Sect, he also prepared to make preparations on the New Continent.
The first two great changes were indifferent to him, whether others beca immortal or gods, Li An did not care.
But when the third great change arrives, he must seize the opportunity.
To embrace challenges only at the last minute?
That’s courting death!
According to his master, the third great change is filled with terrifying and mysterious energy, and finding the Hongng Immortal Qi amidst it will be extrely difficult!
No matter what, he has to visit the New Continent and take a look.
Familiarize himself in advance, understand the situation, and make it easier to react.
In the following years, he closely monitored news regarding the New Continent, while actively researching various archives and records about the Southern Sea.
At the sa ti, he was diligently practicing formation techniques and other arts.
"Senior Brother Li is here,"
One day, Li An once again entered the sect’s "Array Hall," and several disciples inside greeted him, saying, "Greetings, Senior Brother Li!"
"Senior Brother Li, have you co today to find Tier Seven array texts again?"
A female cultivator from the Array Hall stepped forward and smiled slightly. Her na was Han Lin, and she was a disciple of the Array Hall master, just an ordinary disciple, but her attainnt in arrays was quite good.
Over the years, she had beco well acquainted with Li An.
"The Hall Master told that a distinguished guest arrived today, and if you can get him to play a ga with you, you might soon grasp the essence of Tier Seven arrays."
Han Lin whispered, leading Li An to wait outside the inner chamber.
After a long ti, the master of the Array Hall, Guo Xulin, ca out, smiling at Li An and said, "Friend, please—"
Among the true disciples of the Great Dao, few were engrossed in formations. Li An had been coming to the Array Hall day and night, studying diligently for decades, earning Guo Xulin’s admiration. Thus, his guidance was sincere and without reservation.
In fact, now he actively devised an opportunity for him.
Li An then entered the inner chamber to see a chessboard set up, with a light screen on the opposite side, concealing the person sitting there.
Li An didn’t bother to investigate, just sat down, saying, "Please guide , senior—"
He began placing stones.
Understanding the formation through chess!
The Go played by cultivators was also Go but more complex, with rules far beyond the mortal "nineteen lines," and many variations.
The opponent also placed stones, and soon, Li An was utterly defeated, losing terribly!
Li An focused on the board, replaying the ga in his mind but felt sowhat... Confused!
The opponent’s moves were too aggressive.
"Again."
An indistinguishable voice of gender sounded, and the second ga continued imdiately.
