I've Really Had an Epiphany This Time!

Bright Moon Ancient City.

Zhang Yuanru feeling very melancholy.

He left the ancient city, looking at the sun that had not yet risen, feeling an indescribable melancholy in his heart.

The pressure Lu Changsheng put on him was immense.

Zhang Yuanru if Lu Changsheng was strong, he was nothing special.

Unexpectedly, Lu Changsheng was too terrifying, causing him to despair. Lu Changsheng's actions today formed an insurmountable mountain in his heart.

This is no longer a question of whether or not to cross the mountain; Zhang Yuanru even feels that she doesn't have the courage to go up the mountain.

It's like taking an exam. You get 99 points, and someone else gets 100. You feel like there's only a one-point difference.

However, when you realize that others got 100 points because the test only had 100 points, while you got 99 points because you could only get 99 points, you will feel deep despair.

"Well!"

Zhang Yuanru sighed.

Unbeknownst to him, he found himself on a mountain.

However, Zhang Yuanru surprised.

He discovered that there were many people on the mountain, a dense crowd at a glance.

They were all exceptional talents participating in the grand event.

Why are you all here?

Zhang Yuanru taken aback.

In particular, he also saw Wang Xuanji, Li Rulong, the Shu Gate Holy Son, the Purple Azure Holy Son, the Supreme Unity Holy Son, the Yin Yang Holy Son, and others.

"Brother Zhang has arrived too?"

The Yin Yang Holy Son spoke, giving a greeting.

"Greetings, everyone!"

Perhaps because of the blow, Zhang Yuanru was in a bad mood, and her former arrogance and pride were completely gone.

It's like you come from a village and are the son of the richest man in the village. You always think you are so great, so you will naturally become arrogant and also naturally develop a sense of contempt.

After all, you always talk about having assets of 50,000, but one day, you meet someone who spends hundreds of thousands or even millions on a single meal. Your confidence and arrogance will instantly become a joke.

People should not compare themselves to others; once they do, they will develop obsessions and inner demons.

Therefore, Zhang Yuanru lost her former confidence, replaced by an undisguised sense of loss in her eyes.

What are you all doing here?

Zhang Yuanru curious, so she couldn't help but ask.

"Alas! We have all felt some pent-up emotions, so we have come here to find peace and quiet."

Wang Xuanji spoke.

And everyone nodded in agreement.

"So it turns out you all have some worries."

Zhang Yuanru somewhat surprised, not expecting everyone to be like her.

"Senior Brother Changsheng, you are so extraordinary that we can only look up to you in awe. How can we not feel bad? I thought that I, Li Rulong, was a genius in the Eastern Land. Looking at the world, I would at least be in the top ten, if not number one?"

"But compared to Senior Brother Changsheng, I suddenly felt like I was a piece of trash."

Li Rulong was somewhat moved and couldn't help but say this.

"Senior Brother Li, if you say that, then aren't we even worse than trash?"

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Li, what you said was very hurtful."

"I feel like I'm not even worth counting in this world."

"A sage once said that everything has its value. I have been pondering for a long time: what is the value of waste? Now I understand: the only value of waste is to highlight genius!"

Some people, in their despair, utter such words.

"Well!"

At this moment, countless young cultivators couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps, this is life.

In an instant, thousands of cultivators stood atop the mountain, watching the rising sun with solemn expressions.

No one spoke, because there was nothing to say.

Soon, more and more cultivators gathered here.

They are all outstanding talents, among the best in their respective regions.

On this day, far too many geniuses were defeated by Lu Changsheng.

Soon, the news that countless geniuses had gathered on the desolate mountain spread like wildfire.

This led more and more cultivators to go over, even though many of them didn't know what was going on, they still went to see what was happening.

However, two hours later...

Suddenly, a voice slowly rang out.

"Wait a minute! Everyone! Something's not right!"

The sound aroused the curiosity of the crowd.

The speaker was also a genius, renowned in his own right.

"What's wrong?"

What are your thoughts?

"What do you mean?"

Everyone was curious, unsure of what to say.

"Everyone, we've made a mistake, a complete and utter mistake!" the man shouted, and then continued, "Everyone, we've entered a misconception. Today, Senior Brother Lu made a great vow based on the sacred words of Heaven and Earth, and received the blessing of the Profound Yellow Dragon."

"Therefore, we were filled with despair, believing that there was an insurmountable mountain on the path of cultivation."

"But have you all considered that we were wrong from the very beginning?"

"Senior Brother Lu is indeed powerful and extraordinary, but the question is, why should we compare ourselves to Senior Brother Lu?"

"Who is Senior Brother Lu? I have received accurate information from an unnamed Supreme Elder who said that Senior Brother Lu is the reincarnation of an unparalleled being from the Immortal Realm."

"In other words, who is Senior Brother Lu? He's an immortal! How can we compare to someone who has become an immortal?"

"So why should we compare ourselves to Senior Brother Lu? For example, some martial arts practitioners in the mortal world want to enter the Dao through martial arts and cultivate martial arts, but they insist on comparing themselves to Senior Brother Wang. Is that meaningful?"

"Even if Senior Brother Wang were to abandon his cultivation and pursue martial arts, he would still make rapid progress, far surpassing others."

"But can that mean those martial arts cultivators are weak? No, because Senior Brother Wang is a cultivator of immortality, and they are not on the same level at all."

"Although Senior Brother Lu is indeed extraordinary, he belongs to the Immortal Realm, while we are from the Immortal Cultivation World Realm. The difference between the two is vast. Therefore, it is inevitable that we are inferior to Senior Brother Lu. On the contrary, it would be impossible for anyone to surpass Senior Brother Lu."

"Moreover, those who can surpass Senior Brother Lu must be from the Immortal Realm. So everyone, think about it carefully. We subconsciously regard Senior Brother Lu as a mountain in our hearts, but have we ever thought about what would happen if we didn't regard Senior Brother Lu as that mountain? If we think about it this way, doesn't it make a lot more sense?"

The man spoke loudly, each word resounding with power.

For a moment, countless geniuses were stunned.

Yes!

Lu Changsheng isn't from the Immortal Cultivation World; he's from the immortal realm.

I am a cultivator from the Immortal Cultivation World. How can I compare myself to cultivators from the immortal realm?

Am I sick?

Did I eat poison?

Hiss!

Hiss!

Hiss!

In an instant, countless geniuses gasped in astonishment.

Although I feel there's something wrong with it, it sounds so reasonable.

"Hiss! I suddenly understand, I suddenly understand, I get it! I get it! In the end, we just regarded Senior Brother Lu as one of our own kind, but Senior Brother Lu is a cultivator from the Immortal Realm, and we can't compare to him, that's only natural."

"Yes, yes, I understand now, I get it, hahaha, I've figured it out, I've figured it out!"

"I've figured it out too! Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!"

In an instant, many prodigies burst into laughter, their disappointment vanishing completely, replaced by excitement.

A genuine sense of excitement.

"It's nothing but self-deception!"

Zhang Yuanru sighed inwardly.

However, soon, the people around him suddenly burst into laughter as well.

"Haha, I've figured it out, I understand, yes, yes, that makes sense, ah, I feel much better now."

The first to burst into laughter was Li Rulong, who, after a moment of contemplation, was filled with excitement.

"Yes, yes, that's absolutely right, that's exactly the point, that's exactly the point."

Wang Xuanji also laughed loudly.

"Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense. Why would we waste our time comparing ourselves to Senior Brother Lu? Are we just asking for trouble?"

The Shu Gate Holy Son also had a sudden realization.

"I understand! I truly understand now!"

Hiss!

Seeing that everyone had actually understood.

Zhang Yuanru was stunned.

"Brother Zhang, have you figured it out yet?"

Someone spoke up, asking Zhang Yuanru he had grasped the meaning.

Looking at the excited crowd, Zhang Yuanru took a deep breath and then said with a serious expression.

"I've got it! Hahaha, I've got it, hahaha, I'm so happy, hahaha, cough cough cough!"

Zhang Yuanru forced a loud laugh.

Although he hadn't grasped anything at all, he was very clear that at this point, all he could say was that he had.

What can we do if we can't?

However, whether it's true enlightenment or not, at least the knot in my heart has been relieved quite a bit.

However, at noon that day...

Something unusual has happened in the Celestial Origin Holy Ground.

There are four more chapters to come!
