Don’t tell Ping’an, alright?”

“Ah?”

Elder Yansheng’s eyes were filled with surprise:

“Does Ping’an have a bottleneck?”

“That,” Li Dazhi chuckled, “is a secret, please keep it under wraps, otherwise, it might affect the sales of our Wanyun Sect’s magic artifacts.”

Elder Yansheng immediately grasped the gravity of the issue.

Li Dazhi continued, “There are two other matters I’d like to entrust to the Elder…

A youth named Li Jing has come to the Flowing Cloud Observatory.

I’ve seen him and his aptitude is quite good.

He has some connection with Ping’an.

Could you possibly take him as a disciple first?”

Elder Yansheng smiled and said, “Just so happens, after breaking through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, my Dao is now stable, and from now on, it’s about slowly accumulating insights over the vastness of time.

I was indeed considering taking on a disciple.”

“That’s good,” Li Dazhi urged, “Please make sure this task is well taken care of.

Don’t let someone close to Vice Sect Leader Moyi take him in.”

Elder Yansheng nodded slowly: “I will go and take him as my disciple immediately.”

“Moreover,” Li Dazhi asked, “have you heard of Immortal Duer?”

Elder Yansheng calculated with his fingers and stroked his beard with a smile: “I have heard of him long ago.

He’s an Immortal from the West Kunlun Immortal Realm, who claims to be a registered disciple of Ancestral Master Taiqing.

It’s said he has heard the teachings of Ancestral Master Taiqing and possesses great divine powers, likely at the Golden Immortal level.”

“Oh?”

Li Dazhi raised an eyebrow slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

If the Li Jing of Wanyun Sect was that Li Jing, Marshal of the Celestial Heavens, then as long as Wanyun Sect took Li Jing in and taught him gradually, it would prove that there is no such thing as a pre-destined fate!

And if Wanyun Sect’s Li Jing was not the Marshal of the Celestial Heavens, it would not matter.

This Li Jing would still be a top-notch Immortal Sprout.

It’s a no-lose situation!

“Many thanks, Elder.

Later, please send a disciple on patrol to inform Ping’an about Immortal Duer.”

“Sure.”

Elder Yansheng did not understand the reason behind this but did not ask further questions.

Li Dazhi left the Mundane Affairs Hall in high spirits, mounted the clouds, and headed to the back mountain of the main peak.

He found a secluded spot outside the bamboo grove where his own master was in seclusion.

Following the secret technique provided by Elder Yansheng, Li Dazhi quickly set things up, placed two candlesticks, lit three sticks of incense, and arranged a simple formation with spirit stones on the ground.

“Is this really reliable?”

Li Dazhi blinked and took out from his sleeve a talisman paper inscribed with Li Ping’an’s name and birth details as the secret technique instructed, lit the talisman paper on fire, and mumbled some words.

“Fate forms on its own, life manifests from within, borrowing luck for three days, neither lessened nor diminished.”

Li Dazhi performed the sealing hand-gestures and cast the spell, and then promptly sat across from the candlesticks, nodding solemnly:

“It can be borrowed.”

The talisman paper burned up in an instant, a thread of golden light wrapped around the three sticks of incense, and they began to flicker uncertainly, burning at an incredibly slow pace, while wisps of smoke vanished without a trace, three inches above the tips of the incense.

“So it’s done?

I just need to cast the spell every three days?”

Li Dazhi scratched his head as a strand of hair from the center of his scalp drifted down, making his eyes bulge.

He quickly went inward to inspect himself.

It’s alright, the price for casting the spell was just losing a few hairs, my Dao remained unaffected.

The secret technique also mentioned that such borrowing of luck would consume some of the caster’s own lifespan; three days of luck for the cost of three days of life.

And Li Dazhi felt it wasn’t too big of a deal, considering he cultivated the Longevity Golden Immortal.

Such a situation, where his own spellcasting was harnessed by others, was indeed rare.

“Ping’an, you must break through the bottleneck quickly.

Who can bear to always lose hair like this?”

Li Dazhi shook his head.

He had gone bald, but his son had become stronger.

“Actually, it’s not too bad.”

…

In the cave dwelling on Unnamed Peak,

the thought in Li Ping’an’s heart suddenly grew very strong.

He pondered for a moment before actively going to the inner cave and cupping his hands in greeting at the entrance, calling out:

“Master!

Your disciple has something to ask of you!”

“Just come in,”

Qing Su called out gently.

Li Ping’an stepped inside and caught sight of Master Qing Su floating down from the hanging basket, a faint floral fragrance wafting through the air, refreshing the spirit.

“Master,” Li Ping’an said softly, “I’ve tried to comprehend those demon cores to no avail, so I wish to earnestly request Master to take your disciple out for some experience.

I want to try to find an opportunity for breakthrough during magical combat.”

“I was just about to talk to you about this.”

Qing Su said:

“How about I take you to the vast toxic lands of the Northern Continent?

“There, given your cultivation level, you must maintain a mana barrier at all times and always be on guard against poisonous creatures that can strike from anywhere.

I will also set several tasks for you, requiring you to kill a certain number of poisonous beasts daily.”

“When I was stuck at the bottleneck in my Yuan Immortal Realm, I went alone to the Northern Continent.

Although I nearly died several times, I emerged with my strength increased by four minor realms!”

Li Ping’an’s heart trembled incessantly.

He quickly said, “Master, your disciple thinks, well, there’s no need to go to such a fierce place…

Let’s go to the Western Continent instead, I have a good spot in mind.”

“The Western Continent?”

Qing Su’s eyes lit up:

“I’ve been there once before, but I didn’t dare to get too close to those old demons’ lairs.

Actually, there are quite a few human Qi Cultivators there.

By slaying demon creatures, we can also contribute more to the Human Race.”

Li Ping’an breathed a sigh of relief: “That’s what your disciple was thinking.”

Qing Su’s eyes sparkled: “Shall we go to the northwest of the Western Continent?

There are many great demons there, I’d like to test the power of the Xingyin Sword.”

“About that,” Li Ping’an said guiltily, “your disciple was thinking of going to the southeastern region, closer to the border of the Southern Continent.

We can just walk along Skycutter Great Array of the Southern Continent, and it would be enough to just kill a few demons…

would that be alright?”

Qing Su said seriously: “How can that have the effect of tempering through life and death?”

“Your disciple just wants to exchange some blows with the Demon Race.

Let’s take it step by step; your disciple is only at the peak of the Merge True realm.”

“That works,” Qing Su laughed, “I’ll go call Ningning; since we’re going to the southeast of the Western Continent after all.”

“Let’s not bring Ningning along,” Li Ping’an said earnestly.

“I don’t want her to see me covered in blood, battling with demon creatures…

Master, I will go to Mundane Affairs Hall to request two Homecoming Orders, and then we can depart.

I’m feeling a bit restless.”

Qing Su nodded slightly: “You can handle those arrangements.

I will set up the trial tasks for you.”

A hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.
