Scholar Reincarnation, clad in a feather fan and silk headscarf, stepped out of the Chaos Qi. Sensing Su Yun's location, he smiled. "Fellow Daoist Su has none of a transcendendent's bearing. He still fights for mortals. How laughable."

He came to the only route leading to the Immortal Realm Gate and waited quietly. A few days later, Su Yun indeed arrived.

Scholar Reincarnation's spirits soared. With a hearty laugh carried by Dao sound, he said, "Fellow Daoist Su, why did you not stay obediently within the seal I left for you? Why did you insist on coming out? You are making things very difficult for me."

Su Yun, traveling through the starry sky, abruptly halted. Gentle and amiable, without the slightest trace of anger, he bowed in greeting. "And why did Saint King leave the Chaos Qi to recover from his injuries, only to come block my path?"

Scholar Reincarnation smiled. "I merely came to set chaos right and reclaim my divine ability. You took a shortcut, using my divine ability in conjunction with Taiyi Tiandu to make yourself unprecedentedly powerful, hoping to defy fate and alter your destiny. Yet you possess only powerful cultivation and Dao attainment, without the corresponding realm. Sooner or later, you will suffer a great loss."

Su Yun's expression stirred slightly. He bowed deeply to the ground and said with utmost sincerity, "Had Dao Brother not enlightened me, I would not even know where I had failed. Many thanks for Dao Brother's guidance!"

Scholar Reincarnation was taken aback. He had originally thought Su Yun would fly into a rage at his words and fight him, but he had never expected Su Yun to accept his guidance so sincerely.

Though he called it guidance, his tone was pompous with age and his posture lofty and condescending.
