Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 80: Unattainable!

Liu Jie let out a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, Xiao Zhen's insight is sharp and perceptive, otherwise your reckless actions would have caused a lot of trouble!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Liu."

"Who said I'm concerned about you!"

Liu Jie glanced at him and said, "Since there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. When the day comes for you to enter the inner sect, I'll treat you to a drink to celebrate!"

"Alright! Thank you in advance, Senior Liu!"

Liu Jie smiled and then left with Liu Ruxi.

At this moment, after stopping, Jiang Yuan felt even more pain in his body.

With the support of Shu Xiaoxiao, he returned to his own courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, everyone closed it and their gazes fell on the old man standing in the courtyard.

At this moment, bamboo leaves were falling gently on his head.

They fell on his dry white hair and his plain clothes.

But he seemed to blend in with the world, motionless and harmonious.

A few butterflies and birds also landed slowly on his shoulders.

[Name]: Kong Nian

[Realm]: Divine Bridge Realm, Ninth Level

[Innate Luck]: Late Bloomer (Purple), Accumulate Strength and Erupt (Blue), Master of Manipulating Objects (Blue), Apprentice in Formation Arrays (Green), Genius in Mystical Gates (Green)

[Late Bloomer]: The older one gets, the higher their cultivation aptitude and comprehension.

[Accumulate Strength and Erupt]: The deeper the accumulation, the stronger the eruption on that day. Infinite accumulation and foundation can help break through any bottleneck.

[Master of Manipulating Objects]: Special divine sense, extremely skilled in manipulating objects.

[Apprentice in Formation Arrays]: Has good talent in the field of formation arrays.

[Genius in Mystical Gates]: Has good talent in the field of mystical gates.

[Detected 53 strands of Luck Power, absorb them?]

Seeing this prompt, Jiang Yuan was suddenly shocked.

How could he store so much on his body?

Fifty-three strands?

Jiang Yuan didn't have time to think about it and silently nodded in his mind.

"Yes!"

Then he respectfully said to the old man, "Greetings, Senior!"

The old man nodded and instantly broke free from his state of unity with the heavens and earth.

"You're quite good! Are you interested in becoming my true disciple?"

Jiang Yuan fell into contemplation.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

After becoming a disciple, the bond would be too strong, and he would be too tied to the Tai Xuan Sect.

It would not be beneficial for his future development.

He could not possibly stay in the small Tai Xuan Sect for his entire life.

Moreover, he had also learned that the Tai Xuan Sect was divided into seven branches, with the Tianzhu Peak as the main branch. Apart from the personal disciples of the Sect Master, all the other disciples were inner sect disciples.

If he were to join one of the other six main peaks, he would have to join their branch and could only reside in the peaks where those main disciples lived.

Apart from the main peak, Tianzhu Peak, there were disputes among the other six peaks due to interests, although these disputes were benign.

But they would still give rise to many unnecessary conflicts.

There were also many disciples who chose not to join any of the other six branches and instead lived peacefully on Tianzhu Peak to cultivate, even though resources were scarce.

But they enjoyed freedom and were far away from internal conflicts, making it more convenient for them to cultivate in peace.

Liu Jie and Liu Ruxi were among them.

Thinking about all this, Jiang Yuan made a rough decision in his heart.

Especially when he thought about the bond between master and disciple, which was like that of a father and son.

When he achieved success in his cultivation in the future, he could still repay the Tai Xuan Sect for their nurturing.

But how could he repay the bond between master and disciple?

That bond was too deep!

With his personality, he couldn't just abandon it and ignore it.

If he could, he wouldn't have spent several months completing that trip for Jiang Zhenyuan's last wish.

Then he shook his head and said, "I have no intention of becoming a disciple."

Instantly, the old man's expression turned astonished.

"Why?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not convenient to say."

He doesn't want to join my Tian Shou Peak either. Could it be that Tian Shou Peak is really going to fail?

Sigh! So be it!

Eight or nine out of ten things in life don't go as planned!

This matter cannot be forced. It's enough that he is a disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect!

He remembered Gu Mo's confession earlier and quickly cheered up, looking at Gu Mo and saying, "Are you willing to be my disciple?"

Gu Mo shook his head, "I am the young master's bodyguard. How could I abandon the young master and become your disciple alone?"

Kong Nian was instantly stunned.

"Bodyguard? Young master?"

"Yes, I am the young master's bodyguard! He gave me my life. If it weren't for the young master, I would have died in that icy wilderness. How could I avenge my parents' death? Because of Jiang Yuan, I saved my life and avenged my parents' death. With his guidance, I abandoned the sword and focused on cultivating the right path, allowing me to enter the extraordinary realm. With a long lifespan, I can witness the prosperity of the world. I no longer have any desires for such kindness."

Kong Nian: "..."

Seeing that the two of them were unmoved, he felt a little disappointed.

Then he said lightly, "Since that's the case, if you want to enter the inner sect, you must participate in the assessment of the inner sect disciples."

"If you can get first place, the rewards will be generous. One thousand lower-grade spirit stones, one bottle of second-grade high-grade Qi Absorption Pill, and you can choose an additional technique from the second floor of the technique pavilion, which means you can choose two techniques!"

"But..." Kong Nian paused and continued, "If you only get second place, you can only choose one additional technique, and the rest of the rewards are unrelated to the second place. The owner of the first courtyard is a Meridian Opening Realm triple cultivator!"

Jiang Yuan nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

He was about to leave, but then hesitated for a moment.

"If you have the idea of finding a master in the future, you can come to Tian Shou Peak. The gate of Tian Shou Peak will always be open to you!"

After that, he threw a bottle of pill in front of Jiang Yuan.

"This is a second-grade Vitality Pill. Take it regularly, and within a month, it will completely heal your meridians!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Yuan let out a sigh of relief. Standing in front of such a powerful figure was too much pressure!

Then he picked up the Vitality Pill in front of him.

This senior's character is not bad.

Unfortunately...

I still have to rely on myself to walk my own path. I'll come back to repay the favor if I have the chance!

Tai Xuan Sect is just a stop on the journey of life.

There's no need to get too involved, as the law of cause and effect is too heavy.

Now, the most important thing is the reward for being the first in the inner sect assessment.

After studying a lot of books yesterday, he also understood how important cultivation resources are.

The reward for first place, even for inner sect disciples, is only this much after ten years of accumulation. It can be said to be extremely generous.

Inner sect disciples receive ten lower-grade spirit stones as their monthly salary.

Equivalent to ten thousand taels of silver, which is a lot in the mortal world, but for them, it's just enough to get by.

Cultivation requires spirit stones, and so does eating and drinking. Pills and artifacts require a large amount of spirit stones.

Without resources, they can only rely on daily meditation to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth for cultivation.

The speed of breakthrough is as slow as a turtle.

Therefore, in order to earn resources, many inner sect disciples have to complete sect missions.

For him, spirit stones are not just cultivation resources.

They are also one of the ways for him to obtain new Innate Luck.

Certain natural treasures can improve a person's essence, just like the Soul Condensing Dew.

It can change one's destiny and give birth to new Innate Luck.

In his hands, any kind of low-level Innate Luck, even the most basic white one, can continue to level up with the blessing of his panel.

In this way, his talent can further improve.

After coming to Tai Xuan Sect and seeing various geniuses, Jiang Yuan also knew that although his talent was good, it was not overwhelming.

Shu Xiao Xiao possesses two golden Innate Luck.

Compared to her, he is far behind.

Not to mention that Shu Xiao Xiao is not the only one of her kind in the world!

Even if she is, there are geniuses who are close to her.

In this calculation, he cannot be complacent about his talent.

If he wants to witness the splendor of this path, he needs resources, talent, perseverance, and luck, all of which are indispensable.
