“Patriarch, disciple will do his best.” Lin Yun nodded and replied.
“Right, Lin Yun, you can go straight back to the Green Jade Mountain now, it’s safest to be at the Wanderer’s, I’ll send your master and the others, to send you there in a flying boat, so you can continue to dive into your cultivation.” Patriarch said.
“Patriarch, my disciple has stayed at the Green Jade Mountain for three years, this time I came out because I want to venture outside, if I stay at the Green Jade Mountain and cultivate, although I can continue to improve my divine sense, I won’t be able to make much progress in terms of my realm, my disciple needs to look for the opportunity to break through to the Mahayana realm.” Lin Yun said.
Staying on the mountain day after day to cultivate, Lin Yun wanted to break through the Mahayana realm, I’m afraid that it was just a long way off, he had to go to the continent to break through, to train, as well as to look for a chance.
The cultivation continent was laser in size, and the continent was littered with dangers as well as opportunities.
“Breaking through the Mahayana Realm? This is not an easy thing to do, many elders are stuck in the third stage of the Empty Underworld, and cannot step into the Mahayana Realm in their entire lives, you are still young, take your time with this matter, don’t be too anxious, don’t put too much pressure on yourself, you have infinite possibilities.” Patriarch said.
“Disciple understands.” Lin Yun replied.
Breaking through the Mahayana realm was indeed a huge challenge.
“The Ancient Family shouldn’t dare to mess around in a short period of time, but if you go out to make a break for it, you still need to be careful, with the Skybreaker Bead by your side, your ability to defend yourself will be quite good, if the situation isn’t right you’ll rush to use it.” The Patriarch exhorted.
“Disciple obey.” Lin Yun replied.
“Right Lin Yun, half a year only later, there will be a battle of a thousand sects, at that time, thousands of sects in the Star Martial Empire will all converge together, and each of them will select their best disciples to fight against each other.” The sect master said.
“Thousands of sects battle?” Lin Yun muttered, listening to the name, it seemed very impressive.
“The top twelve ranked in the Thousand Sect Battle will be the next Name Sect, and Name Sects that become weaker will be de-banned in this Thousand Sect Battle.” The Patriarch explained.
“I see.” Lin Yun came to a realisation.
“Only disciples under the age of two hundred from each sect can participate in the war, at that time, if you have time, you still have to go and participate, as long as you get into the top twelve, there are good rewards, if you can get into the top three, you will be able to obtain the qualification to enter the Heavenly Thunder Pool once!” The patriarch said.
“Heavenly Thunder Pool? What kind of place is that?” Lin Yun said curiously.
“The Heavenly Thunder Pool is a precious place under the control of the Star Martial Empire, the Heavenly Thunder Pool opens once every fifty years, entering the Heavenly Thunder Pool and soaking in it, at the very least, you can grasp the beginnings of the Thunder Upanishad, and there are even some individual cultivators who have grasped the complete Thunder Upanishad in one fell swoop by soaking in the Heavenly Thunder Pool.” The Patriarch explained.
“Is it that powerful?” Lin Yun’s eyes lit up.
“However, this Heavenly Thunder Pool can only be enjoyed by the top three in the Thousand Clan Battle.”
“Wanting to be among the top three in the Thousand Sect War is very difficult, among the current twelve sects, the three sects, the Demon Fixing Sect, the Qing Yuan Sect, and the Soul Refining Sect, have a much stronger overall strength than the Heavenly Sword Sect, and their underpinnings are even stronger than that of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the top three in each session are almost always wrapped up by them, and the rest of the famous sects, are likewise not to be underestimated, in the last Thousand Sect War, we, the Heavenly Sword Sect, were just barely ranked to the eighth only.” The patriarch said.
Even if they were the same name sects, the gap between them was enormous.
It was just like billionaires on Earth, although they both had the title of billionaire, the difference between owning a billion and owning ten billion was obviously enormous!
“Just based on that Heavenly Thunder Pool, no matter what, I’ll try to make a dash for the top three.” Lin Yun’s eyes flickered with determination.
This reward was simply too generous!
The Patriarch smiled and nodded, “It’s good that you have such determination, if you can charge into the top three, it’s a great honour for my Heavenly Sword Sect, the higher you rank within the famous sects, the easier it will be to recruit, in the future, all the better quality disciples.” Single
those geniuses of the first generation, when choosing a sect, they would definitely prioritise the more powerful sects, even if they were beyond the enrolment area, some genius disciples, would travel long distances to the top ranked famous sects.
Because of this, the top ranked sects were able to receive even better quality geniuses, which would make them even stronger, and so on, making the strong sects stronger and stronger, and the weak sects weaker and weaker.
Of course, for powerful clans like the Super Ancient Family, the geniuses of their family would not be sent to the name sects, as they possessed the ability to cultivate such geniuses, and even if they were to send them out to worship, they would be sent to the Wanderer, a type of strong person who had the ability to specialise.
“Lin Yun, there’s still half a year before the Thousand Sect Battle, during this time, you should improve as much as you can, at the Thousand Sect Battle, if you want to hit the top three, you’re bound to meet enemies from the Mahayana realm, those genius figures, each with many different means, it’ll be a great challenge for you.” The Patriarch said.
“Disciple will definitely endeavour to improve!” Lin Yun nodded his head vigorously.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yun excused himself and left the great hall.
This half year, Lin Yun knew that it was definitely impossible for him to step into the Mahayana realm, so he could only improve in other ways as much as possible.
After leaving the great hall.
Lin Yun flipped his hand over and took out a tattered and yellowed map.
This map was one that had been rummaged out of Gu Yu’s storage ring when he had killed him earlier.
“Although the map is mutilated, through this half of the map, it’s already possible to roughly determine a location, let’s first go to the place on this map and explore the situation.” Lin Yun muttered.
Lin Yun believed that this should be a treasure map.
Lin Yun didn’t set off immediately, instead, he first went back to his own place, saying goodbye to Pang Liang and letting Pang Liang stay at his place temporarily first.
Immediately after that, Lin Yun went to Elder Cui’s residence and said goodbye to him.
In the courtyard.
Elder Cui stretched out his old hand to pull Lin Yun.
“Disciple, you still have a long road ahead of you, my master really wants to see that you’re able to stand at the top and be able to lead the Heavenly Sword Sect to glory, only, it’s very likely that my master won’t be able to see that day, remember, no matter what comes your way, think of a way to live, only by living will you be able to rise to the top.”
Elder Cui exhorted in a heartfelt manner.
“Master, you still have thirty to fifty years left, this time, I believe I can reach a certain height, when I have enough strength, I’ll try to find a way to help you find the resources to comprehend the Upanishads, and then break through the Mahayana realm!” Lin Yun said seriously.
“To receive a disciple like you, old me is truly blessed in three lifetimes, a good master awaits you.” Elder Cui revealed a kind and old smile.
After chatting for a while longer, Lin Yun got up to leave.
Before leaving, Elder Cui still repeatedly urged Lin Yun to be safe outside.
Lin Yun went to say goodbye to Mo Qing again.
Only after saying goodbye to Mo Qing did Lin Yun leave the Heavenly Sword Sect before heading straight to the place on the map.
After Lin Yun left the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Patriarch also took Lin Yun’s ”Fire Sculpture Stream Carving Technique” and topographed multiple copies of it, distributing them to the Elders, Protectors, Deacons, and Disciples who had grasped the Upanishad of Fire, so that everyone could cultivate their Divine Awareness!
