Qin Ming nodded and said, "Actually, I also feel particularly close to you, elder. It might just be fate."
ng Xinghai laughed and said, "You kid, you have a thick skin. We’ve just begun, and you’re already so forward. Hmm, Qingyue is indeed worthy, very fine."
Qin Ming laughed and let him joke around.
After a mont, he shifted the conversation, subtly indicating that it would be better not to propose such things for now.
With multiple encounters, he could clearly sense that Li Qingyue would not set foot in the mundane world presently.
Her temperant grew increasingly clear and otherworldly, as the saying goes, ’the appearance reflects the heart.’ She was now ethereal, close to immortal, a truly pure Practitioner of the Immortal Road.
The two currently enjoy a good relationship, worthy of being called close friends. If Master Li and ng Xinghai pushed further for their union, it might backfire.
Li Qingyun said, "After Qingyue entered the Fangwai Heaven Pure Land, the path she walked, close to Immortal, is like a kite disappearing into the night, the closer to the sky, the more distant it becos."
He worried that if the string were to break, the kite would fly away, ultimately disappearing, perhaps even leading to a sorrowful parting.
ng Xinghai nodded and said, "Indeed, Qingyue is like an uncut gem, growing more brilliant as she is polished, gradually revealing a foundation far beyond ordinary imagination."
Hidden Families naturally have high-ranking individuals who worry that Li Qingyue might sever her ties, leave the world, fly too high, and wander too far, only to be devoured by the night sky.
The skill is just beginning; the path far from complete. The Eternal Night World is filled with the unknown and horror. No one knows what awaits beyond the pitch black canopy.
Even if close to immortal, should the kite’s string snap, reaching the deepest part of the night sky, it might still bleed and crash.
The Li Family hopes that she remains safe, so that on this vast land, there is always soone to ground her, able to grasp that string.
Qin Ming said, "Master Li, no need to worry. Qingyue has a clear understanding of herself. She herself has said that being close to immortal doesn’t an severing the path she ca from."
The issue of recruiting a son-in-law was temporarily set aside.
However, Master Li and ng Xinghai continued discussing matters concerning Li Qingyue.
In just over two years, Li Qingyue had already stepped into the Third Realm of the Immortal Path!
She had begun "Crossing Tribulation," accompanied by "immortal fire" purification, with her Consciousness Spiritual Light continuously transforming to Pure Yang.
Such speed indeed startled everyone.
Even so Ancestor Masters of the Immortal Path pondered the idea of marrying their descendants to her as Dao companions.
There were also Immortal Seeds suspicious, highly coveting the Furnace of Eight Trigrams, suspecting sothing "unusual," requesting to borrow it for study but to no avail.
Hearing this, Qin Ming frowned deeply, itching for a chance to use the Five Colored Blade to cut down that high person’s descendants and the so-called Immortal Seeds.
"These troubles have been temporarily resolved by Qingyue herself."
"That’s good!"
The topic then lightened, Qin Ming gently declining Li Qingyun’s kind gesture, as he was not suitable to go to the Hidden Family at the mont, because the path he planned for himself did not allow for a lengthy stay.
...
In the following two days, Qin Ming stayed dormant in the Shanhai Academy, not going out.
He was continuously studying the Miracle Technique and had initiated himself into the "Withering and Flourishing Scripture."
Mainly because he had practiced the "Withered Scripture" before, this ti he was incredibly quick in grasping it.
His original plan to visit friends was put on pause, because he was considered a Celebrity among his peers, and now Kunling City was rife with hidden dangers, with many eyes watching.
Rumor had it, no major powers had left.
Moreover, more and more people were arriving.
It was said that a Patriarch Gathering was currently happening in the city!
The Newborn Road, the Immortal Road, the Secret Road... the major powers t to discuss whether to unseal parts of the Ancient Kunleng, because it contained rare and precious resources.
Of course, the priority was the matters of the Great Exploration, formally put on the agenda!
Besides, the Ancestors of the Ghost Road and the leaders of the Ancient Immortal Temple also got involved, interacting with the heads of various paths.
"Extra, extra, there will soon be a Patriarch teaching scriptures!" This headline news broke out.
And people revealed that in the near future, Ancestor Masters would successively ascend to the altar to preach the Tao.
All at once, Kunling City gathered storms from all sides.
Many people were excited, all eagerly awaiting. anwhile, people from all over the Night Fog World, upon hearing the news, many hurriedly ca by riding Exotic Birds.
At night, Qin Ming and Wu Yaizu left their residence to attend a gathering at the neighboring Flying Immortal Academy.
Two days ago, they had already received invitations and did not decline them; they were to participate in a so-called youth disciple exchange.
Clearly, those who could attend were extraordinary; being talented was just the entry threshold.
Under the night’s veil, the Flying Immortal Academy spanned a vast area, with grand buildings scattered about, steaming with immortal fog, quite impressive.
A Lapis Lazuli-built Giant Palace was brightly lit.
In the distance, many students were watching.
They were astonished to discover that the academy’s "Immortal Flower" Luo Lianqing was there running around, directing people to set up the venue.
"Sigh, only remarkable figures are here this ti. Only disciples of Luo Xianzi’s level have the qualification to attend."
In the Flying Immortal Academy, many students were envious, among them even small prodigies not on the invite list.
As night deepened, attendees arrived one after another.
"Su Shiyun of the Immortal Soil and Leng Feiyue of the Yang Soil, they’ve arrived together!" so people exclaid.
The two of them are very famous; anyone who walks the Immortal Path knows these two Immortal Seeds.
Subsequently, Zhao Yaoting, Tang Yutian, Cai Jingcheng, and others from the Esoteric Buddhism arrived, all Divine Seeds, having displayed extrely astonishing feats while hunting demons on the Highland.
"Eh, the newcors look terribly pale, what’s going on?" Soone noticed sothing strange.
Soone guessed their identity; they are Ghost Road cultivators from centuries past, not people of this era.
Many people’s expressions changed.
In ancient tis, the Ghost Road was one of the most hated evil paths, inciting widespread anger and joint crusades.
"Rest assured, with the Ancestor Master presiding, they can’t stir up any trouble. It’s said that the patriarch of the Ghost Road personally ca, claiming they are the orthodox path, not the evil cultivators of the Ghost Road."
The appearance of ancient people caused a sensation, drawing eyes from even those attending the gathering.
"That’s Cui Chonghe, the closed-door disciple of Sun Taichu, fad in the Yewu World, truly handso and extraordinary, worthy of being called Close to Immortal talent!" When Cui Chonghe appeared, it sparked heated discussion.
In the distance, many students of the Immortal Path, both male and female, looked on with eager eyes.
Kunleng has many academies and dojos, and naturally, outstanding disciples are invited, such as Xin Youdao, Lu Dao with a Pure Yang Body, and others.
Qin Ming’s appearance caught many eyes, causing a bit of a commotion.
Mainly because, during his latest hunting on the Highland, he obtained the most Auspicious Beast Blood, inevitably drawing attention.
People also discussed Xiao Wu alongside Qin Ming.
"That bald-headed young man with him is remarkable too, having obtained twice as much Auspicious Beast Blood!"
Wu Yaizu, sharp-eared, nearly lashed out.
He vowed never to keep his hair short again, as this wasn’t the first ti he was maligned.
"So that’s Qin Ming, a prodigy on the Newborn Road!" Naturally, many Newcors looked on with fervent eyes, believing he would inevitably beco a future Ancestor Master!
"He is formidable, but to rise, the road is long and arduous, and at least several centuries are needed before he hopes to beco an Ancestor Master," remarked a disciple of the Immortal Path.
Then soone added that was assuming nothing unexpected happened!
Though the Newborn Road people were dissatisfied, they didn’t like hearing such words, but they resigned to the fact, knowing even Ancestor Masters couldn’t solve this issue.
In the Giant Palace built of Lapis Lazuli, nurous exquisite crystal lamps were mounted, housing the Sun Stone, rendering the place brilliant and resplendent.
When Qin Ming and Wu Yaizu arrived, they encountered many acquaintances coming over to greet them, like Gan Jincheng, Jiang Ruoli, and others.
In fact, many were surreptitiously scrutinizing him.
In Qin Ming’s field of vision, a woman in purple appeared, exceptionally outstanding, and surprisingly approached him after seeing him.
He was astonished because she wasn’t soone from the present era!
Chu Pianran was dressed in purple, her black hair reaching her waist, exuding immortal energy, her eyebrows like distant mountains, with a delicate lon-seed face, originating from an ancient Immortal Temple.
Qin Ming felt a sense of unreality; this was an ancient person, alive in front of him. When he first dueled her, he thought he was too "imrsed," seeing it all as "scenes of the past."
Chu Pianran possessed city-toppling beauty, renowned in ancient tis, a legendary figure, even recorded in so ancient texts.
She fought Qin Ming with a piece of Consciousness Spiritual Light, narrowly losing with one move.
"We et again," Chu Pianran greeted proactively.
Her bright eyes and white teeth, with a slight smile, had a significant impact on the nearby adolescent disciples, who couldn’t take their eyes off her.
"Greetings, Chu Immortal, seeing you stepping from the ancient into reality feels like a dream," Qin Ming responded, indeed experiencing a sense of ti displacent.
eting an ancient person this way was quite unusual.
"Just call Pianran." Chu Pianran quickly adapted, though not of this era, she blended into her new environnt smoothly.
"In that case, just call ’Ming’; I am Yaizu," Xiao Wu greeted proactively.
Qin Ming promptly sent him away because his "bovine social syndro" was acting up.
In reality, Qin Ming wanted to discuss so ancient skills to integrate into the Newborn Road.
Chu Pianran remarked, "It’s unbelievable; the future blooms with a hundred schools of thought, dazzling and diverse paths."
She was also curious about Qin Ming, for his performance in battles at the sa level was extraordinary.
In ancient tis, she never lost in fights among her peers, but in this era, her face bore a mark from the one before her.
Using the thod of this young man in ancient tis, he would undoubtedly be a Power Warrior.
However, throughout ancient texts, there was no Power Warrior capable of defeating an immortal.
Both sought to understand each other’s domain, finding the conversation engaging.
Subsequently, Qin Ming, without reservation, inquired how cultivators like himself advanced and broke through swiftly in ancient tis.
He was confident in himself, not needing the other’s specific skills, just hoping to comprehend unknown fields and gain enough inspiration.
Of course, he didn’t hold high expectations, as they were not familiar with each other.
Yet, Chu Pianran’s offhand remarks made Qin Ming thoughtful and contemplative.
He felt like he had filled a crucial gap today, nearly forgetting so of his own advantages, and now the path ahead was clear, ready to proceed!
Chapter two will be released late, please read it in the morning.
