After advancing to the late-stage Heaven Immortal Realm.

  Jiang Lan began to familiarize himself with the power of this realm.

  He would probably still be at the late-stage Heaven Immortal Realm when he went out for training.

  If anything were to go wrong, it would definitely result in dire consequences.

  Therefore, it was necessary to familiarize himself with his new cultivation at the first moment.

  …


  Three months later, Jiang Lan received a message from his master.

  Then, he was a little surprised.

  “Go to the Sixth Summit to look for Martial Aunt Chen Xi?”


  He did not understand.

  However, he had never seen this Martial Aunt before. He wondered what she would do.

  “Is Master asking me to meet this Martial Aunt because of my immortal ascension?”


  It was highly possible.

  He had been in the sect for 530 years now.

  Under normal circumstances, he should have already reached the perfected Void Refinement Realm and was only one step away from becoming an immortal.

  In a few decades, he would reach the point of becoming an immortal.

  His master had already given him a thousand years of providence. What could be better than that?

  This should be an extraordinary opportunity.

  “I’ve never been to the Sixth Summit before. I can take this chance to go and sign in there.”


  It was easy for special things to appear in new places, but as his realm increased, the chances of special things appearing became lower and lower.

  In fact, the items he had gotten were getting more and more useless.

  Of course, no matter what it was, as long as the areas involved were his blind spots, he would spend time understanding and learning.

  Spells. Magic weapons.

  They were all the same.

  Learning was easy, mastering required energy.

  He could only use a small portion of his energy.

  After all, the Power of Nine Bulls and Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel were techniques that required a great deal of effort.

  Divine powers could only be enhanced through cultivation.

  …


  Sixth Summit.

  Jiang Lan stood at the foot of the mountain, staring at the peak.

  He rode on his sword here but he intended to walk up.

  His Martial Aunt of the Sixth Summit rarely appeared. Sometimes, he would hear that she was a man, but sometimes, he would hear that she was a woman.

  He had asked his master on this matter before.

  She was indeed a female cultivator.

  However, it was still unknown why there were rumors that she was a man.

  “This Martial Aunt is skilled in prophecy and deduction techniques. Since Master has asked me to come find her, it should be something related to this.”


  Jiang Lan didn’t really like people divining things about him.

  After all, he had too many things he needed to keep as a secret as of now.

  Fortunately, his One Leaf Vision could hide what he wanted in a targeted manner.

  This way, he could pass his Martial Aunt’s eyes.

  But danger sometimes came suddenly, and there was also some danger in divinity.

  Therefore, if he could avoid contact with his Martial Aunt of the Sixth Summit, he naturally would do so.

  However, his master had asked him to come today and he could not refuse it.

  “I hope nothing happens.”


  With that thought in mind, Jiang Lan took a step forward.

  He headed towards the location his master had given him.

  He was very careful along the way. He did not know what kind of person this Martial Aunt was. If he was not careful, he would easily offend her.

  However, it should not be wrong to remain respectful.

  He didn’t need the other party’s praise. If the other party thought that he was mediocre, that would be for the best.

  As long as he did not offend her, all was good.

  After a while.

  He came to a small stream. Flowers bloomed everywhere, and the water was so clear that one could see the bottom.

  There was a bamboo house ahead.

  There was no one in sight.

  “Jiang Lan?”


  A sudden voice sounded from behind.

  Without any hesitation, he immediately looked behind him.

  Jiang Lan saw a long-haired woman.

  Her long hair fell past her ears and below her face. There seemed to be a long lock of hair behind her.

  It reached her waist.

  There were sun, moon, and stars on her attire. At a glance, it seemed like she was a beautiful figure standing in the starry sky.

  She was rather handsome and valiant as well.

  This woman.

  Looked no worse than a man.

  She was the Sixth Summit’s summit leader, Chen Xi.

  “Disciple Jiang Lan greets Martial Aunt.”


  Without any hesitation, Jiang Lan lowered his head and bowed.

  This was the senior he was looking for.

  Chen Xi.

  One was skilled in divination.

  “There’s no need to stand on ceremony. I’ve seen your concealment array formation the last time. It’s quite impressive.”


  “Have you recently modified the Netherworld Cave’s array formation?” Chen Xi walked past Jiang Lan.

  She walked towards the bamboo house.

  Jiang Lan immediately followed and answered.

  “Yes, I have made some changes.”


  “When your master told me to help, I was shocked.

  He seldom looks for me.” Chen Xi turned to look at Jiang Lan and smiled.

  “Your master is really good to you.”


  Jiang Lan lowered his eyebrows, not saying a word.

  He understood.

  More than anyone, he understood how good his master was to him.

  The more he understood what he had obtained, the more he understood this.

  A thousand years of providence, the Catoptric Deflection manual, the fortuitous opportunity in the inn.

  His master had paid the price every time.

  Moreover, in his master’s opinion.

  He had yet to become an immortal.

  The cultivation resources his master gave him were of little use to him.

  However, there were some that were very useful.

  Therefore, as a disciple, he would naturally bear any responsibility that a disciple had to bear.

  For example, the engagement with Xiao Yu.

  He had agreed to it unhesitantly.

  He had also accepted the challenges from the Heavenly Human Race and the Dragon Race.

  Everything was different from the cultivation process he had planned.

  But he didn’t mind.

  He would not reject what he had to bear.

  This was the case now, and so was the case in the future.

  Now, his Martial Aunt would tell him that his master was treating him very well. In the future, his Martial Aunt would be telling his master that he had taken in an outstanding disciple instead.

  In front of the bamboo house.

  Chen Xi sat on a bamboo chair, in front of her was a bamboo table.

  “Have a seat.”


  Jiang Lan thanked her and carefully sat on the other side of the table.

  He did not know what he needed to do this time.

  His master did not mention it, and neither did his Martial Aunt.

  “Do you know why your master has done so much for you?” Chen Xi asked.

  “Because my talent is lacking,” Jiang Lan said softly.

  His talent was indeed lacking.

  Otherwise, his master would not have gone through so much trouble to search for opportunities for him.

  Every time he reached the perfected stage of a cultivation realm, his master would find a good place for him.

  This made it easier for him to advance.

  “Do you think talent is important?” Chen Xi asked.

  “Yes,” Jiang Lan answered.

  Talent was naturally important.

  Without sufficient talent, it was simply impossible to come into contact with the Immortal Realm.

  “Then what do you think is the most important thing on the path of cultivation?” Chen Xi didn’t make things difficult for Jiang Lan, instead continuing.

  “According to my understanding, potential.”


  Chen Xi reached into the space and grabbed the teapot.

  He then took out a cup and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Lan.

  “Talent is a channel that connects potential, but it’s not the only channel. Fortuitous opportunities are also one of the channels.

  However, talent is also sometimes a shackle. There is also another possibility for those with insufficient talent. That is to break the shackles and directly release one’s potential.

  From then on, one can then soar into the sky. And your master…”


  Chen Xi looked up at Jiang Lan and said.

  “He always believed that you were such a person. He believes that your future has endless possibilities.

  Not from your poor talent. But he has seen it from your hard work, your nature and your behavior. These are also attributes that are needed to unleash one’s potential.

  You have all the factors to break the shackles of talent. Now, you are only one step away. That is the Immortal Ascension. What your master wants to help you do is to break this shackle that you find hard to break.

  By doing so, you can become an immortal and achieve a limitless future.”
