Was Master Floating Cloud really going all out just to take him as a disciple?
You are the number one powerhouse of the Dragon Mountain Sect, the only one who has mastered the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics, a supre powerhouse; do you not care about losing face like this?
Lin Chen truly felt honored yet startled, considering how much their identities, statuses, and strengths differed.
Yet, the other party was lowering their stance so much that Lin Chen, who had originally intended to refuse, found himself unable to speak the words of rejection.
After so thought, Lin Chen seriously bowed with clasped hands to Master Floating Cloud: “Senior, I am a person with a laid-back character, not fond of managing affairs.
I have always been worried about being unable to bear the responsibilities or live up to others’ expectations upon joining a sect.
I desire to live freely, to live for myself, which is the very heart of why I embarked on the Cultivation Path.”
“I refused you before, Senior, largely for this reason.
I know myself best.
My talent is diocre, whether it be my Sword Bone, the Phenonon, or the Avatar Ability.
They are all the results of chance encounters and assistance from significant others.”
“My current age, my current Strength, it indeed seems impressive, but compared to the truly exceptional geniuses, clearly, there’s no comparison.
Senior, as the strongest in the Dragon Mountain Sect and the only disciple that has cultivated the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics, you have seen geniuses as nurous as the fish in the Great River.
I do not understand why you favor so, even to the extent of…”
Master Floating Cloud listened calmly to Lin Chen’s words, and upon hearing this part, he laughed, “Are you thinking that this old fellow doesn’t care about losing face just for the sake of taking on a disciple, is that it?”
Lin Chen replied with slight embarrassnt, “Junior generation didn’t an it that way.”
Master Floating Cloud chuckled: “Alright, then let tell you.
I’ve said before that ‘you and our Dragon Mountain Sect are fated,’ yes?”
Lin Chen nodded, “Senior Liuyun ntioned this sentence before as well, saying it was as you said, Senior.”
Master Floating Cloud nodded, “Buddhism devotes itself to Buddha, Taoism follows the Dao, but our Dragon Mountain Sect is eclectic, specializing in many things: astrology, Talismans, Array Formations, dical Skills, and so on.
Even though we Cultivators have limitless lives, no one can master all the ultimate techniques of the Dragon Mountain Sect.”
“I have an unconventional personality and don’t respect the rules.
As a child, when I was learning from my Master, I often got beaten for it.
Each disciple of Dragon Mountain, aside from their main cultivation, must also choose at least one specialized secondary discipline.
My Master originally hoped I would choose Talismans, but I chose astrology instead.”
“My Master wanted to give up astrology, but I refused.
In the end, having no choice, I simultaneously practiced both Talismans and astrology.
Talisman cultivation followed closely the instructions of my Master; as for astrology, I was left to my own devices, considering it a hobby.”
“Perhaps I had so talent in astrology, or maybe it was fated as such, under my Master’s guidance I was passable in Talisman cultivation, but not exceptional.
In contrast, in astrology, a field of keen interest to , I perford very well.”
“Astrology is mysterious and unpredictable.
I didn’t know my own standard after a long ti of cultivation, until one day I divined whether there would be a disaster at Wuling Mountain, and the divination clearly told there would be a great calamity at Wuling Mountain within ten days.”
“I told this to my Master, and to be honest, at that ti I doubted it myself.
I told my Master out of good intentions, thinking it didn’t matter if I was wrong, but what if I was right?”
“After hearing this, my Master inquired about all the details of my divination, then left with a stern face.
Soon after, I heard that many of the sect’s powerhouses had left in groups.”
“A few days later, they returned, accompanied by the seriously injured Sect Leader Master Wen Shirang.
It turned out that soone had taken advantage of Master Wen leading a small group to a gathering to launch an attack, aiming to kill the number one powerhouse of Dragon Cloud Mountain.”
“Master Wen is formidable, and his safety was never a concern when he traveled.
However, based on the divination outcos, it was deduced that the most likely disaster was Master Wen’s death.
They ford a team and went to et him, only to unexpectedly co across the pursued Master Wen en route and managed to rescue him.”
“Although I was also considered a core disciple within the sect, I wasn’t the most valued or the most talented, but after this incident, my status rose substantially.
Master Wen personally inquired about my cultivation, and eventually passed on to the ultimate technique, the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics.”
“I learned it imdiately, shocking everyone, because they all had tried but could not learn it.
I asked Master Wen, and he answered that learning the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics depends on fate and destiny, not talent.
That I could learn it ant that Heaven thought I should be able to learn it.”
“After learning the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Tactics, my cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and eventually, I earned the title of the strongest within Dragon Mountain.
However, my personality is much like what you just described, not fond of being burdened by the nurous affairs of the sect, so I often travel around and seldom stay within the sect.”
Lin Chen was sowhat confused; what Master Floating Cloud talked about seed irrelevant to his willingness to accept him as a disciple, right?
Seeing Lin Chen’s puzzled expression, Master Floating Cloud smiled and said, “It seems like what I just talked about has nothing to do with the current matter, does it?”
Lin Chen hesitated for a mont, then ultimately nodded openly.
Indeed, it seed unrelated.
Master Floating Cloud, with a soft laugh, said, “It’s related because I’ve divined another prophecy, and you, you are the person in that prophecy…”
