Chapter 2370: Chapter 2390: I’ll help you first, so then you can help Dragon Mountain_1

"As if nothing happened?"

Master Floating Cloud stroked his beard and said with a laugh, "You truly are the Holy Son of the Sea God Sect, still young yet with an exceptionally grandeur of spirit and courage!"

"Since he’s put it this way, let’s just do as he suggests. After all, we’ve already warned him; if anything happens, we can hardly be blamed."

"Enough about him, let’s talk about you. How about you tell me about your past?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Well, that’s a long story."

Master Floating Cloud laughed heartily, "The people from the Sea God Sect haven’t arrived yet, so we’ve got nothing but time. Take it slow."

Lin Chen’s past wasn’t a secret, and since Master Floating Cloud wanted to know, he was willing to share.

Especially since he wanted to learn the Bloodline Guidance Technique. What better time to speak of his life than now, right before asking for it?

Lin Chen began with his birth, narrating the story of his world—a tale that greatly piqued Master Floating Cloud’s curiosity because the world Lin Chen described and the one Master Floating Cloud knew were vastly different.

"A world of mortals could give birth to such wonders?"

Master Floating Cloud asked questions curiously, and Lin Chen answered each one. As they talked, Master Floating Cloud’s eyes grew more and more astonished.

Lin Chen, a mere mortal, had such extraordinary encounters that he could reverse his fortune and cross several realms, ultimately arriving in the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain and becoming a Daluo Immortal.

"From what you’ve told me, you controlled a sect with over ten Daluo Immortals in the God Falling Immortal Realm while you were still just a Fairy, and they obeyed your orders?"

Lin Chen explained, "I had no intention of controlling them; I merely wanted them to protect the Thunder Immortal Domain and prevent its peaceful days from being disturbed by external forces."

Master Floating Cloud said with a laugh, "You truly excel at overcoming the strong with the weak. Each enemy you’ve faced has been far stronger than you, yet you’ve always emerged as the victor, with all of them falling at your feet, becoming the stepping stones to your rise."

Lin Chen shook his head and humbly said, "I’ve just been lucky, encountering many benefactors along the way. If it were just my abilities alone, I wouldn’t have gotten far. Look, now that I’ve met you, Master, haven’t I encountered another benefactor?"

Master Floating Cloud burst into roaring laughter, "You’re quite modest! In the world, there’s no help without reason. Yao Xuanji helped you because you saved her and brought her back to life. Purple Cloud helped you because, faced with an enemy who could have killed you in an instant, you didn’t abandon her and flee. You’ve faced countless dangers, which in turn earned you the regard of others."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Master, I haven’t really helped you with anything, have I?"

Master Floating Cloud replied, "I help you first so that you become more formidable, and then later on, you’ll be able to help the Dragon Mountain Sect."

Pausing for a moment, Master Floating Cloud spoke seriously again, "Though I took you as my disciple because of the calamity, it’s not entirely due to that. I told you the first time we met, you are an interesting person with many things about you that defy common sense. Now that I’ve heard your growth story, I’m even more convinced that your future is destined to be extraordinary—perhaps even surpassing this old man."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Wouldn’t that make me a Saint?"

Master Floating Cloud said with a laugh, "A Saint is also a cultivator who achieved step by step. Not everyone is born to be directly appointed Saint by the Heavenly Dao. Who’s to say you’re not the next Saint?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Master, you think too highly of me. With my current realm, let alone a Saint, even reaching the stage of Begin Immortal would take a very long time."

"How old are you?"

Master Floating Cloud scolded with a smile, "Even in the Immortal Realm, even among the geniuses of the Twelve Heavenly Gates with countless Cultivation Techniques and limitless cultivation resources at their disposal, hardly anyone can ascend to Daluo at a younger age than you."

"The lifespan you’ve lived so far, in the eyes of cultivators, is but a flick of a finger. Those Begin Immortals often spend hundreds, even one thousand years in Closed Door Cultivation. How does your time compare to that?"

"Isn’t your Master Su Shaoling a peerless genius who can sweep across a region with a single sword strike? It took him four thousand years to reach the Pinnacle Daluo Supreme Immortal stage, and that’s partly because he was a Loose Cultivator for a long time, which also demonstrates the difficulties of cultivation..."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "No rush, I’ll take it slowly. As long as I live, there’s a chance."

Running his fingers through his beard, Master Floating Cloud laughed heartily, "Correct, that’s the principle. As long as you live, there’s an opportunity. Cultivation is difficult, but it’s also a path filled with miracles."

Lin Chen asked, "Master, I wish to cultivate the Bloodline Guidance Technique to find Kong Ling—who has my father’s body—the Demon Emperor of the Barren Wilderness..."

Master Floating Cloud nodded in agreement, "That’s simple; I’ll teach you right away. Later, I’ll teach you the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Technique."

Lin Chen’s eyes widened in shock, "Isn’t the Dragon God Cloud Dream Technique the Dragon Mountain Sect’s supreme secret art? Am I allowed to learn it?"

Master Floating Cloud looked at him curiously and counter-asked, "You are my disciple. If I know the Dragon God Cloud Dream Technique, why shouldn’t you learn it?"

Master Floating Cloud’s counter-question left Lin Chen feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Indeed, logically speaking, it was true. But he had just joined the Sect, hadn’t even stepped into the Dragon Mountain Sect’s gates, hadn’t gone through any rites, just knelt three times, and now he was about to be taught the Sect’s supreme art? That was quite an exaggeration, wasn’t it?
