Chapter 159: Chapter 134: Du Bai’s Admiration, The Path of Martial Arts, Life and Death Technique Second Realm: Withered Wood Welcoming Spring!

"I’ve taken a few beginner tasks with high credit rewards, wanna come along?"

Du Bai winked at Lu Sheng, his face and words both oozing with confidence.

After all, with the blessing of the Giant Divine Soldier, Du Bai could unleash power above the initial stage of Tier Five; these beginner tasks were no big deal for him.

The main reason he extended the offer was his high regard for Lu Sheng.

Whether it was because Lu Sheng had given him a lift before, or because of Lu Sheng’s performance in clearing the Vine Insects from the Heaven-Reaching Vine, Du Bai felt his junior was bound for extraordinary achievements.

He considered it a form of early investment.

However, facing Du Bai’s words, Lu Sheng smiled and replied, "Thanks for thinking of me, Senior Du Bai, but... I’ve already renewed my guard duty on Ancient Temple Star for another two years."

"What’s the big deal? Just cancel it, right? You’ll lose some credits, but once you finish those high-reward tasks with me, those credits will be nothing!"

Du Bai waved his hand dismissively.

Lu Sheng still smiled and shook his head gently, saying in a soft voice, "No, Senior, this place suits me very well."

Hearing this, Du Bai gradually gathered his thoughts. After surveying Lu Sheng, a solemn look appeared between his eyebrows.

"Your aura..."

"Your Life and Death Technique... it’s almost at the Second Realm?"

Suddenly, Du Bai exclaimed, his solemn expression turning to astonishment.

Du Bai had also practiced the Planet Level cultivation technique, Life and Death Technique, reaching the Second Realm, Withered Wood Welcoming Spring.

That’s why he could perceive the distinct aura of the Life and Death Technique on Lu Sheng, recognizing its significant progress.

However, Du Bai himself had been with the Life Factions for over thirty years to reach the Second Realm.

Lu Sheng had only been with the Life Factions for how long?

A bit over a year, perhaps.

And he was almost at the Second Realm already?

Even though Du Bai had built his own Giant Divine Soldier, almost matching the Transcendents at mid-stage Tier Five, he felt a bit complicated looking at Lu Sheng.

"Monster!"

Du Bai muttered the word, and in his heart, he also felt admiration for Lu Sheng.

After all, whether on the asteroids, with the Life Factions, or at Star River University, many Transcendents, after breaking through to Tier Four, would indulge in enjoyment.

At Tier Four, progress was punishingly hard; some might even be stuck at Tier Four for life.

This led many Transcendents to abandon themselves because the path ahead was grueling.

But Lu Sheng...

Du Bai, having spent so much time with the Life Factions, knew a lot about Ancient Temple Star. Despite the significant benefits for cultivating life and death related mental realms and techniques, the place was extremely monotonous.

The environment was incredibly harsh.

Yet, in this harsh environment, Lu Sheng remained true to himself, persistently cultivating, undisturbed by external factors.

This quality...

Was rare among Tier Four Transcendents!

Most importantly, Lu Sheng knew what he wanted!

Why would Star River University recruit Martial Artists with a heart for martial arts?

Because Martial Artists with a heart for martial arts never give up easily; they have ambitions in martial arts!

Du Bai looked at Lu Sheng with a slightly complex expression. Lu Sheng knew what he wanted, and didn’t Du Bai himself?

He spent thirty years building his own set of Giant Divine Soldiers, working hard to advance further in martial arts with their aid!

Decades of effort resulted in this Giant Divine Soldier, comparable to mid-stage Tier Five Transcendents, allowing Du Bai to go further on the path of martial arts.

Du Bai pursued the New Martial Sect path, while Lu Sheng currently followed the Old Martial Sect path; their routes differed, but their ultimate goal was the same.

The pinnacle of martial arts!

Whether Du Bai could reach the pinnacle, he didn’t know, but he kept striving.

Lu Sheng did the same.

"I appreciate you more and more!"

Du Bai looked at Lu Sheng and couldn’t help but sigh.

Lu Sheng smiled slightly but said nothing.

"Since you already know what you want and are on your way, I won’t say much. You have your choices, I can’t interfere, but I do wish you well!"

Du Bai said, smiling as he patted Lu Sheng’s shoulder.

"Thank you, Senior."

Lu Sheng responded softly.

"Ancient Temple Star is good for comprehending life and death mental realms, even possibly increasing the chance of understanding a Domain of Mental Realm. Practicing here indeed efficiently advances the Life and Death Technique."

"However, if you want to reach higher realms in the Life and Death Technique, don’t always stick to the Array in the Shelter. Take time to roam Ancient Temple Star, explore the depths of the Desolate Desert, and observe how Yellow Sand Beasts form."

"Use extra credits to exchange for Life and Death Fruit, it’s very beneficial for your cultivation of the Life and Death Technique."
