Chapter 989 - Lin Rusheng Made a Breakthrough!
writer:步行天下      update:2022-07-29 16:52
  Just as everyone in the country was talking about the appearance of Holy Flowers Formula and the export of Trillium Root-Securing Pill and Life-prolonging Earth Pill, something happened in Wulin, which had been quiet for a long time.

  “Hahaha……” In a forest in the mountains where no one could be seen within 10 kilometers, the door of a bamboo-built house which had been closed for a long time suddenly opened. A gust of extremely powerful energy suddenly spread from the house, accompanied by a burst of incomparably hearty laughter that pierced the whole place.

  “Pitter-patter.” A figure walked out of the house.

  If one took a closer look, the man was dressed in a blue Taoist robe. He was thin with gray sideburns and a long beard. He looked like a highly respected Taoist priest.

  This man was none other than Lin Rusheng!

  Today, Lin Rusheng finished his closed-door training in seclusion!

  After the great battle with Fang Qiu, Lin Rusheng went straight back to the wild forest to cultivate in seclusion and didn’t come out until today.

  “How many years has it been? I finally broke the bottleneck.”


  Standing in front of the door and looking at the surroundings, Lin Rusheng laughed and looked excited.

  He carefully sensed it.

  His aura was obviously stronger and more ethereal than he was when he fought with Fang Qiu.

  “Half-step Guru, I’m a real Half-step Guru now!” Lin Rusheng clenched his fists and couldn’t help laughing. “Although I haven’t really reached the actual Guru Realm, I’ve already overcome the most difficult stage. It’s just a matter of time now. Hahaha.”


  He was repressed for ten years!

  However, after being repressed for ten years, he finally reached this stage. However, the energy he suppressed during these ten years could not help him directly reach the Guru Realm.

  However, his current situation was that he had attained such a state of mind, so his strength would naturally enhance slowly. However, he couldn’t rush it. He still needed to accumulate his strength over time!

  Lin Rusheng immediately took out his phone after he repressed his excitement and calmed down.

  He logged into the Wulin online forum and immediately sent a post on the forum.

  “I couldn’t break the bottleneck after ten years of bitter cultivation. Fortunately, with the help of John Doe, I’m able to break the bottleneck, overcome the chasm, and attain the true essence of cultivation. Now I’ve reached my ascension. The day when I become a guru is just around the corner.”


  As soon as this post was sent, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

  “Damn! Lin Rusheng finished his closed-door training?”


  “Lin Rusheng finally reached this stage?”


  “Damn. He failed to achieve it after cultivating bitterly for ten years. But he actually made a breakthrough after having a great battle with John Doe?”


  “I didn’t expect that that battle really was Lin Rusheng’s battle of ascension. I still vividly remember everything of that great battle.”


  “I didn’t expect that he really broke through.”


  “Will there be another guru in Wulin?”


  “I heard that it’s very difficult to break through to become a guru. Even if one overcomes the chasm, it will take a certain amount of time. After a slow transition, one can become a real guru. Since Lin Rusheng has reached the stage of Half-step Guru, shouldn’t he continue to hide and cultivate and quietly wait for the day when he becomes a guru?”


  “Isn’t he a little too proud?”


  “Although this is great news, he actually came to send a post on the forum at such a critical moment. Isn’t he a little too negligent?”


  “Well, Lin Rusheng is powerful. Once he reaches this stage, John Doe will definitely not be a match for him. How many people in the world can fight him?”


  Everyone was having a heated discussion on Wulin online forum.

  It also caused a sensation in Wulin.

  Four Great Families also paid attention to the news in the first place.

  “Lin Rusheng actually was enlightened?” In the Diwu family in Nanjiang, Diwu Mingchuan frowned and said in the hall, “This man was truly forced to reach this stage. It really is dumb luck!”


  “Father.” Diwu Qian rolled her eyes at Diwu Mingchuan and gave a wry smile.

  “I even suspect that he has benefited from John Doe,” Diwu Mingchuan shook his head and said, “it’s almost impossible for those who don’t have a peaceful mind and good temper to become a guru. Although there are good and bad gurus, it’s really unexpected for such a narrow-minded man to become a guru.”


  “Isn’t it a good thing since there’s one more guru in Wulin? You don’t seem to want Lin Rusheng to achieve this,” said Diwu Qian.

  “Will it be a good thing or a disaster of Wulin?” Diwu Mingchuan shook his head and said, “On the surface, Lin Rusheng looks like a decent man. He wears a Taoist robe all day long, but in fact, he discredits Taoism. However, he is very scheming and self-centered. It is easy for such a person to degenerate. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t become a guru. If he still degenerates after becoming a guru, it will be big trouble.”


  “Yes.” Diwu Qian frowned slightly and nodded in agreement.

  “What a pity.” Seeing his daughter’s dignified look, Diwu Mingchuan rolled his eyes and instantly shook his head with a sigh.

  Diwu Qian asked, “What’s a pity?”


  “It’s a pity that you haven’t reached the peak of the ninth class. Otherwise, I would have considered whether to let you fight with John Doe again,” said Diwu Mingchuan.

  “Uh……” Diwu Qian covered her mouth and smiled.

  People of the Qian family, the Zhan family, and the Xi family all felt the same way.

  The patriarchs of the Four Great Families were all sophisticated experts. When they heard that Lin Rusheng had broken through, they thought of the same thing, except that Elder Zhan who had a good impression of Lin Rusheng at the beginning didn’t feel something was wrong. Patriarchs of the Xi family and the Qian family both looked a little dignified, but most of the time they simply felt that it was a pity for their young disciples.

  If those disciples could also reach the peak of the ninth class, they would make every effort to send them to fight with John Doe to see if John Doe was truly so miraculous!

  In addition to the Four Great Families, the one who regretted it the most was undoubtedly the Sword Fanatic.

  “Lin Rusheng made a breakthrough?” Hearing the news of Lin Rusheng’s breakthrough, the Sword Fanatic was dumbfounded.

  Although he had also gone to watch the battle of ascension, he never seriously treated it as a battle of ascension. That was because he was extremely certain that reaching ascension was not so easy.

  After all, he was also at the peak of the ninth class, only one step away from becoming a guru.

  Since Lin Rusheng couldn’t make it even after ten years of hard work, it meant that he didn’t have the talent and that it was almost impossible for him to become a guru.

  But the Sword Fanatic didn’t expect that Lin Rusheng actually made it after the battle with John Doe.

  “Damn it, I suffered a loss last time.” Thinking of the last time when he fought with John Doe, the Sword Fanatic actually requested to compete on their sword moves without the help of internal Qi. He suddenly wanted to slap himself in the face now.

  He actually missed such a good opportunity.

  It was an extraordinary coincidence!

  If he had exerted all his strength to fight with John Doe at that time, it might have been himself who was able to overcome the chasm, instead of Lin Rusheng.

  The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a pity. He deeply regretted it.

  Meanwhile, many people were sighing with emotion on the Wulin forum.

  “It turns out that there is still a state of Half-step Guru after breaking through?”


  “I haven’t heard of a guru for a long time. This time, are we finally going to witness the appearance of a guru?”


  “He couldn’t make it after ten years. But he actually achieved it after having a battle with John Doe. John Doe is really Lin Rusheng’s lucky charm.”


  “Lin Rusheng should thank John Doe properly, right?”


  “Yes, John Doe helped him overcome the chasm. It doesn’t make sense if he doesn’t express his gratitude.”


  It seemed that Lin Rusheng had been watching the Wulin forum all the time.

  Just when everyone thought that Lin Rusheng should thank John Doe, Lin Rusheng sent another post on the Wulin forum.

  “Mr. John Doe, can we meet?” A post was sent in the name of Lin Rusheng.

  “Fortunately, with Mr. John Doe’s help, I was able to overcome the chasm. Now that I have achieved ascension, I hope that Mr. John Doe will do me the honor. Would you like to meet me ten days later, Mr. John Doe?”


  As soon as this post was sent, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention and comments.

  Countless people swarmed to the post.

  “I’m worshiping the guru!”


  “Me too!”


  “This is the closest I’ve ever been to a guru.”


  “Guru Lin, can you reply to me?”


  “I can’t believe that I’m leaving a comment on a guru’s post.”


  “I actually witnessed the appearance of a guru!”


  “Beep, beep, beep……” Just as people on the Wulin forum were in a heated discussion, Fang Qiu, who was following the progress of his company cooperating with an international group, was suddenly disturbed by the ringtone of his mobile phone.

  He took out his phone and had a look.

  “He Gaoming?” Confused, Fang Qiu picked up the phone.

  “Hello, master.” He Gaoming’s voice came from the other end of the line.

  “What’s the matter?” Fang Qiu asked, using the tone of John Doe.

  “Lin Rusheng is looking for you,” He Gaoming said directly, “Lin Rusheng posted on the Wulin forum that he has come out of his closed-door training in seclusion today and overcome the chasm and that he would soon become a guru.”


  “Oh?” Fang Qiu was surprised.

  He didn’t expect that Lin Rusheng would break that barrier and overcome the chasm.

  Because he had once made a breakthrough and became a guru, he was fully aware that there would be a period of time to accumulate one’s strength after one overcame the chasm. Although it was only a matter of time, wasn’t it a little too ostentatious since Lin Rusheng sent a post on the forum as soon as he overcame the chasm?

  Wasn’t he afraid that someone with ulterior motives would come out to hinder him at this critical moment?

  “He invited you to meet him in ten days,” He Gaoming said, “but he didn’t say the specific location. Do you need me to reply for you, or do you want to do it yourself?”


  “I’ll do it myself,” Fang Qiu answered and hung up the phone.

  He immediately logged into the Wulin forum with his mobile phone.

  Although there was a computer in front of him, it was quite easy to leave his IP address if he logged in with the computer. Because of the particularity of his phone, Fang Qiu didn’t have to worry about that if he logged in with his phone.

  He logged into the forum and saw the post sent by Lin Rusheng and immediately replied below the post, “Okay.”


  “Ten days later, I’ll meet you in Zhongnan Mountain,” Lin Rusheng replied immediately and set the meeting place.

  As people saw their conversation, there was another round of heated discussion.

  “It’s Zhongnan Mountain again. Why do I feel that there’s chemistry between them?”


  “It seems that there will be another pair of good friends in Wulin.”


  “Absolutely. John Doe helped Lin Rusheng break through, so Lin Rusheng will definitely express his gratitude to John Doe. But if these two people join forces, they will probably be the strongest pair of good friends in Wulin now.”


  Fang Qiu didn’t care about the heated discussion on the Wulin forum.

  After replying to Lin Rusheng, Fang Qiu expanded the area of the Desert Cistanche cultivation base again at the request of He Xue.

  After all, the Trillium Root-Securing Pill and Life-prolonging Earth Pill would be sold in the international market. The quantity of the products needed was much larger than before. Hence the production of Desert Cistanche should keep up.
