Chapter 126 - 27: The Dispute over Perpetuation, the Delicate Fairy, Multilateral Grabbings_3
Everyone stared at Zhao Huai with curious and envious eyes.
It made him very uncomfortable.
Their gazes seemed to want to dissect Zhao Huai to see what he was made of.
“Greetings, Elder.”
All the disciples of the Immortal Yearning Sect bowed to the Taoist priest with a goat beard after landing.
“Greetings, senior.”
Zhao Huai clasped his fists and exchanged pleasantries.
Since the man was an elder of the Immortal Yearning Sect, it was appropriate to greet him.
Zhao Huai knew that the man in front of him was a strong cultivator in the Golden Core Realm, who had fought the fully awakened Demon King for hundreds of rounds. This fact alone proved his strength and made him worth greeting.
However, Zhao Huai had not yet figured out exactly what had happened, including the recent events involving Yan Country’s national fortune, and was completely unaware of it all.
He had just been fully immersed in his cultivation within his mind, using his Divine Insight to judge that he had caused a terrifying anomaly in the sky, making quite a commotion.
“Calling me ‘senior’ is too distant, just call me Uncle Mu. Wan Qiu has mentioned you to me. You’re indeed an outstanding talent, a real dragon among men. ”
The Taoist priest with the goat beard said with a hearty laugh.
This left Chu Longxiang standing nearby quite speechless.
This was ridiculous. No matter how talented the other party was, it did not warrant this level of relationship building.
This was not just relationship building, but rather, building a familial relationship!
Unfortunately, Chu Longxiang could only complain in his heart; Elder Mu was quite well-known in the Immortal Yearning Sect and had always treated him well in the past.
It was just that this young man’s talent was too monstrous, and even Chu Longxiang could not compare.
“Er… that may not be appropriate.”
Knowing the identity of the man before him, Zhao Huai’s attitude was still respectful. After all, being close with the sect that was the largest in the surrounding area had its benefits.
However, he did not expect the man to make this proposition, which left him dumbfounded and feeling quite uncomfortable from the stare.
“Your strength is extraordinary, and you’ve helped us deal with the Demon
King. This in itself is an act of kindness. Plus, you and Wan Qiu are close
friends. Calling me uncle is no big deal.”
The Taoist priest with the goat beard shook his head and laughed softly, not thinking it improper at all.
“Alright then.”
Zhao Huai reluctantly agreed. He immediately remembered the ‘change of fortune through the pill’ mentioned by the man in front of him and asked curiously:
“Uncle Mu just said that what I experienced earlier was the change of fortune through the pill. What exactly is that?”
Elder Mu gladly smiled and repeated the explanation of the change of fortune through the pill.
After listening, Zhao Huai was suddenly enlightened.
“No wonder. I wondered why my True Vigor had already solidified. So, I’ve already gone through the first change.”
“That’s right. With your talent, your future Golden Core will definitely be of the sixth stage or higher,” Elder Mu said while stroking his goat beard.
“What stage of the Golden Core Realm are you, Elder?”
Elder Mu replied somewhat regretfully, “I am at the fourth stage of the Golden Core Realm. Unfortunately, my potential has its limits. As far as I know, those with extraordinary talent in the Immortal Sects reach the sixth stage of the
Golden Core Realm. They can even become gatekeepers of the mortal world.”
“Sixth stage…”
Zhao Huai murmured, recalling the time he had fought against the Limitless Immortal Sect’s gatekeeper in the sky above the capital city.
So, even a gatekeeper was merely at the sixth stage of the Golden Core Realm.
True Disciple Chu Longxiang looked at Zhao Huai’s profile and couldn’t help but ask:
“From what I’ve seen, your life’s element is that of a Silver-scaled Celestial Dragon. Are you a descendant of the Great Yan?”
Zhao Huai heard this and wanted to respond after recalling the anomaly he caused.
“Yan Country’s national fortune is reviving, Yan Country’s national fortune is reviving!”
However, an incredibly excited voice from behind interrupted him.
An elder in an elegant robe accompanied by a silver-haired woman stood beside a large group of cultivators.
With a thumping sound!
The elder in the elegant robe lead by example, kneeling in devotion, and everyone behind him followed suit.
“Greetings, True Dragon!”
This left Zhao Huai with a puzzled expression on his face.
True Dragon?
When did he become a True Dragon?
