"Good disciple, you've truly given your master a huge surprise!"
Chen Changsheng hadn't expected that the cultivation technique Yang Jian found would be directly synchronized to him. This meant he had obtained such a legacy without exerting much effort.
"Just when I have many questions about cultivation, it's like a pillow arriving just as I'm sleepy. If that's the case, I'll take a look and see what's so magical about this Double Pupils technique."
Chen Changsheng let out a hearty laugh, stopped talking, and immediately closed his eyes to examine the Double Pupils cultivation technique.
Time flashed by, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Jian had been cultivating in the Scripture Pavilion for a year.
A year hadn't left too many marks on Yang Jian's face, only transforming him from a boy into a young man.
However, Yang Jian's aura had undergone a complete transformation.
A year passed in a flash. During this year, Yang Jian had mastered the Double Pupils cultivation technique, truly embarking on his path of cultivation.
If Chen Changsheng could see Yang Jian's current state with his own eyes, he would likely be even more astonished.
At this moment, Yang Jian was enveloped in an aura of battle. Although he appeared as a young man, he now looked like a general who had fought on battlefields for many years.
What was most shocking was that Yang Jian's aura had become rich and deep, indicating significant progress over the past year.
If Chen Changsheng were present, he would be able to sense that Yang Jian was now on the verge of the Void Returning Realm!
During this year, Chen Changsheng had also meticulously organized the memories in his mind, finally gaining a good understanding of the Primordial Era world.
"A year has passed now. I wonder how my disciple is doing with his cultivation?"
Leaving the main hall, Chen Changsheng looked at the Scripture Pavilion ahead and mused.
In the Investiture of the Gods, Yang Jian was the strongest among the third generation disciples of the Chan sect. However, with only a year's time, Chen Changsheng couldn't guarantee what realm Yang Jian would reach.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, your eldest disciple has broken through to the Void Returning Realm, and you have received a reward: your cultivation has advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Realm!"
"Holy crap!"
Chen Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but curse.
"My eldest disciple is truly a child of destiny, already reaching the Void Returning Realm. The next step will be Dao Integration, directly challenging the Immortals!"
Chen Changsheng sighed inwardly. According to his memories of the Primordial Era, the path of cultivation was divided into three major stages.
Mortal Realm: Refining Essence into Qi, Refining Qi into Spirit, Refining Spirit into Void, Refining Void into Dao.
After Dao Integration, one would overcome the Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to become an Immortal!
This was divided into: Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, True Immortal, Golden Immortal, Taiyi Realm, and Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Above the Grand Unity Golden Immortal was the legendary Saint realm, divided into Quasi-Saint and Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
Chen Changsheng had once obtained a trial card for Grand Unity Golden Immortal and knew how terrifying that realm was.
As for Saint realm figures, they were the peak existences in the Primordial Era world. Currently, there were only six Saints in the entire Primordial Era.
There were countless cultivators in the Primordial Era, but very few reached the Void Returning Realm in just one year.
Although Chen Changsheng had never underestimated Yang Jian's talent, reaching the Void Returning Realm in one year was indeed beyond his expectations.
"It seems this Double Pupils legacy is quite suitable for him!"
Chen Changsheng nodded with satisfaction. What surprised him the most was that Yang Jian's breakthrough had also propelled his own improvement.
"If one disciple can bring me so many benefits, then if I take in ten, a hundred, or even thousands or tens of thousands of disciples, won't I be able to improve my realm every day without doing anything?"
Feeling the abundant spiritual energy within him, Chen Changsheng's heart became excited.
He knew that just a year ago, he and Yang Jian were no different from ordinary mortals. Reaching the Heavenly Immortal realm in one year would likely be even more astonishing.
Who didn't like getting something for free? He understood the principle of quantitative change leading to qualitative change.
If he could recruit all the famous generals from the Investiture of the Gods under his banner and make them his disciples, wouldn't that be wonderful!
Chen Changsheng licked his lips, but then his expression dimmed.
Because a year had passed since he took Yang Jian as a disciple, and during this entire year, the System hadn't given him any prompts.
"Alas, it's all about fate. Even with the System's help, without destiny, nothing can be forced!"
Chen Changsheng sighed. Little did he know that at that very moment, on Jade Spring Mountain, someone was wracking his brain over the fate he had just mentioned.
"Strange, so much time has passed, why hasn't my disciple arrived yet?"
True Lord Jade Cauldron sat cross-legged in Golden Cloud Cave. For him, time had lost its specific meaning.
Ever since his master-disciple fate with Yang Jian was severed, he had been unable to understand why, yet he was unwilling to give up. Thus, he decided to wait.
No one expected that after a year, all he received was the passage of time, not even a single hair of his disciple.
As one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, True Lord Jade Cauldron was naturally unwilling to accept this. Even if he couldn't take Yang Jian as a disciple, he desperately wanted to know who had severed his master-disciple fate.
"Fine, I've also been in seclusion on Jade Spring Mountain for many years. Things are developing, and it's time for me to go out and see what's happening!"
True Lord Jade Cauldron sighed softly. For beings like them, the outside world held little interest.
However, to investigate the suddenly severed master-disciple fate, True Lord Jade Cauldron decided to visit the mortal world.
With that thought, True Lord Jade Cauldron slowly stood up, and his figure vanished from the cave dwelling.
