Chapter 708: Elder Tian 2

Despite the smile on Elder Tian’s face, his heart was surging with shock and awe. The last time he heard Liu Yuntian mention encountering a young man who was possibly a cultivator, he became interested and expressed a desire to meet him. Nowadays, as the world’s spiritual energy is thinning, the number of cultivators is also becoming rarer. Therefore, if there was a chance to meet other cultivators, he naturally wouldn’t pass it up. The reason he suddenly made a move upon entering was to verify whether Leng Xuan was truly a cultivator. At the same time, he wanted to use his own strength to intimidate the other, which is a common practice in the cultivation world. But what he hadn’t expected was for Leng Xuan to be so strong. Although the initial exchange between them appeared to leave neither side with an advantage, in reality, he had suffered a secret loss, with his internal energy churning for quite some time before calming down.

From this point, it was clear that the other party was stronger than himself. Thus, he immediately lowered his stance and apologized proactively, fearing his earlier actions had displeased Leng Xuan. Now, seeing that Leng Xuan had no intention of pursuing the matter, he finally relaxed.

After everyone took their seats, Liu Yuntian began the formal introductions: "Leng Xuan, this is Elder Tian, whom I’ve mentioned before. Elder Tian has been living in seclusion in the mountains, rarely venturing out. He made an exception this time specifically to meet you. Elder Tian, this is the young man who saved me that I told you about."

"Elder Tian, you have my respects." Leng Xuan stood up and gave a cupped-hand salute. Although his strength was greater than the other’s, by seniority, he was the junior, and such manners were still necessary.

"Young Friend Leng is too courteous. Let’s sit and talk," Elder Tian gestured with his hand, then asked, "Young Friend Leng, you are young yet your cultivation level is so exceptional. May I ask which sect or teacher you follow? I have traveled in the cultivation world and met several leaders of cultivation sects. Perhaps I might know your master."

Leng Xuan shook his head and smiled: "Elder Tian is unaware, but I am actually without a sect or affiliation. I simply encountered a remarkable person in my youth, who taught me, thus leading me onto the path of cultivation."

Elder Tian was startled, knowing that the one who had trained a young powerhouse like Leng Xuan must be extraordinary, and couldn’t help asking, "Could you reveal your master’s name and where his immortal residence lies? I would like the opportunity to pay him a visit."

"I am very sorry," Leng Xuan said. "I do not truly know my master’s full name. I only know his surname is Zhang, and he has been wandering the Four Seas for years, living without a fixed abode. I have not seen him for a long time."

"The surname Zhang?" Elder Tian furrowed his brow and fell into thought. After a while, he said, "I do know one or two cultivators with the surname Zhang, but their strength does not match yours, so they certainly are not your master. Alas! It is no wonder, the cultivation world is vast, with many remarkable individuals. With my insight, I’m afraid it’s insufficient to have crossed paths with your master."

At this moment, Leng Xuan felt a stirring in his heart and asked, "Just now, you mentioned that you seem quite knowledgeable about the cultivation sects of this world. Might you share in detail? I have never traveled outside, so I know nothing about these matters and would appreciate your guidance."

Elder Tian smiled and replied, "I dare not presume to offer guidance. You and I are both cultivators, and we can exchange what we do not understand with each other. However..." At this point, he turned his gaze toward Liu Yuntian.
