"Having amassed such a deep foundation, once he breaks through to the Nirvana Realm, he won’t just simply pass through the Nirvana Wind Tribulation and the Nirvana Fire Tribulation in one go, will he? Even among all the sects’ True Disciples, in terms of potential, Yi ng Dao truly deserves to be ranked first. It’s unimaginable to think what the scene will be like when Yi ng Dao ascends to the Nirvana Realm this ti."
"No matter how strong Jiang Shu is, he probably only has about eighty or so Divine Skills. According to the information received, many of Jiang Shu’s Divine Skills were forcibly obtained by refining others’ Divine Power Pills, not truly cultivated by himself. Such Divine Skills are too mixed up. His talent is exceptional, and compared to us, he might already be able to integrate and refine these skills to perfection."
"But in front of an Innate Dao Seed like Yi ng Dao, there must be significant flaws. I definitely still favor Yi ng Dao."
"You all know too little. Yi ng Dao’s cultivation isn’t just about Divine Skills. For us ordinary cultivators in the Primordial Pill Realm, the quantity of Divine Skills matters most. But for top-tier talents of the Primordial Pill Realm, they place more emphasis on controlling and understanding Tao Embryos. Like Jiang Shu, though his Divine Skills are complex, he controls several Tao Embryos and is able to suppress and refine his skills. For talents of their caliber clashing, it’s no longer about Divine Skills but their individual understanding of the Great Dao."
So Loose Cultivators discussed fervently, their gaze unconsciously turning towards so True Martial Sect Disciples around them.
"Senior Sister Lu."
Luo Yu clenched his fists, wanting to say sothing. But soon, he heard Lu Qingling’s chilly word, "Let’s go."
"Dao Yi Sect’s disciples would love for us to start a conflict. All we need to do this ti is to announce the sect’s treasure exchange list. Don’t look at these Loose Cultivators talking about following Dao Yi Sect. See how few actually approach Dao Yi Sect’s disciples directly?"
Only when they had walked away did Lu Qingling convey her thoughts to Xue Xuan and Luo Yu through spiritual communication.
"Those Loose Cultivators deliberately spoke out loud, just wanting to see what we from True Martial Sect can still bring out. Anyone left in Fuhai City now, without exception, is seeking a great opportunity in life-and-death situations."
"It’s impossible to casually choose to follow a sect, even Dao Yi Sect."
Lu Qingling shook her head. She had ventured into Fuhai City many tis before, and her aunt often spoke about the behaviors of Loose Cultivators, which she could naturally deduce a lot from.
"Whether the first of the Primordial Pill Realm is Brother Jiang or Yi ng Dao, to them, it has no impact at all. What they care about is whether they can be safer in this great battle, whether they can seize more benefits."
"The Elder in our sect has already allocated and confird the benefits. We just need to announce the list. How the Loose Cultivators choose is not for us to interfere with."
"Don’t overthink it; nothing can surpass one’s own strength."
Taking a deep breath, Lu Qingling slightly closed her eyes, and again the indifferent gaze of Yi ng Dao surfaced in her mind.
If I hadn’t advanced to the Primordial Pill Realm, with only my Furnace Fire Realm strength, that gaze and pressure alone would probably have made collapse. And that was even with Yi ng Dao noticeably holding back. When the great battle begins, Transford Demons several tis stronger than the current Yi ng Dao will appear in the Endless Sea. If my strength isn’t strong enough, forget seizing opportunities; even my life and death won’t be under my own control.
"Senior Sister Lu’s lesson is right."
Xue Xuan and Luo Yu nodded repeatedly. After Jiang Shu left the sect, both of them had returned once to the Da Jing Dynasty and received an unprecedented reception.
No one expected that the dynasty’s talent, who had gone at the ti, would in just a few years beco an Inner Sect Disciple.
Within the dynasty, everyone was utterly respectful to them. So of the dynasty’s talents kept asking about the True Martial Sect and how to cultivate.
This was their first ti experiencing the treatnt of a True Martial Sect Inner Sect Disciple.
But now, the ergence of Yi ng Dao made their originally buoyant hearts suddenly sink into the abyss.
In the dynasty, even a True Man of the Primordial Pill Realm who had amalgamated ten Divine Skills into a pill was a supre being capable of commanding the dynasty and controlling the lives of all.
But in the Cang Mang Domain, what was their strength worth?
Under the pressure of Yi ng Dao, they couldn’t even lift their heads. Ten Divine Skills condensed into a Primordial Pill... it was just too weak.
At this mont, they realized more concretely how powerful Jiang Shu, who had left the Da Jing Dynasty with them, was.
This was what true talent looked like! Although he had already shown promise while still developing, back in the dynasty, he was only slightly better than talents like us. But once at the sect, the difference was as vast as that between the clouds and the mud. Even from another perspective, if it weren’t for Jiang Shu, Yi ng Dao wouldn’t even have glanced at them, because they didn’t even qualify for a formal conversation with him. This was the cruelty of the Cang Mang Domain.
"I really don’t know when Brother Jiang will co."
Just as Luo Yu was speaking, a voice suddenly echoed in Lu Qingling’s mind.
"I was also wondering when our junior brother would co."
"To face Yi ng Dao and still hold a sharp conversation—although it’s just about a dozen Divine Skills—with a bit more accumulation, reaching the Nirvana Realm shouldn’t be a problem."
A young man was seen smiling and waving at them.
But the surrounding Loose Cultivators seed to not see him at all, brushing past them.
"Let’s go, co sit in my hall. Since you’re familiar with Jiang Shu, I, as his senior, naturally have to show so hospitality. Let the maid brew you a cup of Earth Rank precious tea, to wash away the earlier misfortune."
Lu Qingling suddenly stared in shock, exchanging glances with Xue Xuan and Luo Yu.
This ti, Xue Xuan and Luo Yu also heard the young man’s voice.
She bowed and said, although she already had a guess, she still needed to confirm, "May I ask who the senior is..."
"Sea Light True Monarch."
"After accepting the third disciple, our Master had almost no intention of taking more disciples, since he had advanced to the Vientiane Realm and beca the master of a peak.
"He no longer needed to accept disciples for the sect’s sake, as he did when he was an elder. Therefore, although Eldest Senior Brother, myself, and Third Junior Brother are all disciples of our Master, we all know that perhaps in Master’s eyes, the status of the junior brother is higher than all three of us.
"Moreover, I was there when Yi ng Dao appeared. If our junior brother weren’t exceptionally talented, those sanctimonious mbers of the Dao Yi Sect wouldn’t have even bothered to personally intervene."
Following Sea Light True Monarch, Lu Qingling, Xue Xuan, and Luo Yu quickly arrived at a private residence within Fuhai City.
The number of servants and maids in the mansion was not high, making it seem sowhat deserted.
Under Sea Light True Monarch’s arrangents, several maids at the Acupoint Passage Realm soon ca forward, placing cups of exceptionally precious tea in front of the honored guests.
Even Lu Qingling didn’t know how to respond to Sea Light True Monarch’s words.
Should she say she was just lucky to have beco Lord Zi Ji’s disciple? That would obviously be typical false modesty. If she truly lacked ability, how could the sect have chosen her to oversee Fuhai City? That assignnt was not easy at all. Without decisive thods and a conciliatory approach, one couldn’t maintain a foothold here, even with the True Martial Sect’s backing.
Lu Qingling knew this well, so she didn’t even know how to respond.
Nodding didn’t feel right, but shaking her head felt even worse.
Since even Lu Qingling, their leader, was in this state, Xue Xuan and Luo Yu could only lower their heads. They took the teacups handed to them by the maids and took a small sip.
"Don’t just focus on drinking tea. No need to be so formal. Since you are all people close to the junior brother, feel free to talk about him. The Master also only sent a ssage about accepting the disciple. He didn’t ntion his current interests.
"Now that the junior brother is coming to Fuhai City, I, as his senior, definitely have to prepare a great gift for him."
