Tan Tianzhong awkwardly smiled and said:
"It's just so ordinary things. It's my honor that Emperor Yu likes them."
Thinking of what was just ntioned.
Tan Tianzhong tentatively asked:
"Earlier, Emperor Yu ntioned... that there is a way to rescue my situation. May I ask if Emperor Yu could conveniently disclose it?"
Fang Yu did not directly answer his question.
Instead, he slowly raised his hand, pressed it down a little, and said calmly:
"Since you are at the Half-step Ancestor Realm... you're essentially one step into the Ancestor Realm. Once you fully enter this realm, your lifespan issue will be resolved naturally. You've sought breakthroughs in the Secret Realm, yet all ended in failure. I believe you have tried every thod in the mundane world as well, all to no avail... Do you know why?"
No matter how unwilling Tan Tianzhong was.
No matter how he persevered over hundreds of thousands of years, holding onto a resilient will in the Secret Realm.
However.
How could he not understand the reason behind this?
With a sigh, he said:
"Innate talent determines the upper limit, effort determines the lower limit. Despite my hundreds of thousands of years of effort, I cannot break through the upper limits of my innate talent... Sigh."
This sigh revealed so much helplessness.
Effort is indeed not wrong.
It can determine a person's lower limit.
But without talent, no amount of effort can surpass a certain level and progress will halt.
So people study for an hour, equivalent to others studying for days.
So people sleep in class, play basketball after class, do not do howork, yet they still do well in exams when they barely study!
Why?
Talent.
Talent determines the upper limit.
It's not scary if others have talent, it's scary if talented people work harder than you.
This is an eternal truth.
Fang Yu nodded and said, "Exactly. It's this talent you ntioned... Those without talent can catch up with effort, diligence can make up for clumsiness. However, even the most diligent have their limits. Just like a container, no matter how much effort you put in, its capacity does not expand."
Hearing this.
Tan Tianzhong's expression grew dim.
Fang Yu changed the subject and said:
"But humans are different..."
This sentence suddenly ignited the last glimr of hope in Tan Tianzhong's heart.
He wasn't against the idea of seeking Cultivators from Wanxian City.
He even wanted to find Emperor Yu at Tiandu Mountain.
All to solve this problem.
Fang Yu continued:
"Humans are the spirit of all things... lifeless objects are destined for a certain structure and size from the start. The spirit of all things, however, can change themselves in this universe..."
"Change oneself?"
This question is sothing Tan Tianzhong had considered before.
But how to change?
Fang Yu smiled and said:
"For ordinary people, modifying talent is indeed unlikely! But I... can."
As these words ca out.
Tan Tianzhong looked at Fang Yu in shock.
His eyes were full of disbelief.
This...
How is it possible?
How could a person's talent be changed?
Fang Yu seed to read his mind and said:
"You might not believe it, but do you know why so people who were dull in elentary school suddenly beco smart in middle school?"
Tan Tianzhong shook his head.
Fang Yu continued:
"Enlightennt... Not to ntion the Cultivation Era, even in the modern society of the past, many foolish people beca intelligent overnight. Sudden enlightennt..."
Upon hearing this.
Tan Tianzhong nodded.
This is indeed true.
But how easy is it to achieve enlightennt?
It all depends on opportunity!
How many opportunities does a person have in a lifeti?
Before Tan Tianzhong could speak.
Fang Yu calmly said:
"I grant you an opportunity! To help you break through to the Ancestor Realm. Do you dare to accept?"
"..."
...
The air beca still.
This opportunity bestowed is far greater than directly modifying one's Qi Sea.
It's known that throughout the Huaxia World, many prestigious universities have established Cultivator courses, actively training Cultivators.
But seventy years have passed.
Not a single Ancestor Realm Master has erged.
Why?
It's too difficult!
As hard as ascending to heaven!
Heaven Stepping Realm Cultivators can roam the skies.
An Ancestor Realm, comparable to a guardian deity of a world!
How can it just appear out of nowhere!
Granting such an opportunity, what does it an?
It's beyond any monetary benefit.
No amount of money can exchange for it!
Then...
What is Emperor Yu after?
After a brief shock, Tan Tianzhong t Fang Yu's gaze.
"Emperor Yu, I would very much like to know, why?"
"Firstly, the Huaxia World is the center of the world; with the advent of the Cultivation Era, all the Alien Clans from around the world want to co to this land... There are many Cultivation experts, yet to this day, not a single Ancestor Realm Master has appeared. Even my five Hall Masters are stuck at the Peak Realm of Human Immortal, unable to progress... If an Ancestor Realm Master could erge, our Huaxia would have another guardian deity. Why not?"
"Secondly, training a Cultivation expert is extrely difficult. Pouring all the resources of a country, or even a world, might not succeed. Yet today, a Half-step Ancestor Realm Cultivator stands before , should I watch him fall and do nothing? Wouldn't that waste your hundreds of thousands of years of Secret Realm cultivation? Besides, you are a Huaxia person, with Huaxia blood running in your veins, and your contribution to Emperor City, maintaining peace in one area, shows that what you've done benefits the world."
"Thirdly, while I grant you an opportunity, there's also sothing I need you to do..."
The first two points.
Tan Tianzhong nodded upon hearing them.
Easy to understand, and no objection.
The third point was what he cared about most, so he said: "Emperor Yu, please say... as long as it's sothing I, Tan Tianzhong, can accomplish, I will do my utmost. I just don't understand, with Emperor Yu's current powers, how could you need an old man like to help?"
"It's not help... it's your duty... The Huaxia World is in peril——"
Fang Yu changed the subject, then spoke of the situation with the ten Great Demon Kings.
Especially when ntioning the millions of creatures in the Demon Cave, his expression slightly changed.
The pros and cons were imdiately clear.
The atmosphere was intense as Tan Tianzhong banged the table and said: "Damn demons... These years, I've been resting and recuperating at ho, all affairs managed by my students, I had no idea such a major event occurred. I am truly ashad!"
"It's not too late now that you know."
"Alright! I will definitely assist with this matter! Since the Demon Cave and its army have appeared, I will imdiately dispatch personnel to patrol everywhere and promptly inform all city's Cultivators to beware of demons."
"This matter mustn't be made public... Now that the Dragon Vein is suppressed, it's still in the hands of the Demon King. Disturbing them might alarm them. This needs to be handled secretly."
"I comply with Emperor Yu's wishes."
As the two discussed and reached an understanding.
The old housekeeper's voice ca from outside—
"Mr. Tan, all three of your disciples have arrived and are waiting outside the courtyard."
