"That's all we can do now. I'm at least an elder in the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, and I haven't taken on any disciples yet. So let that brat Ling Fen a disciple again. It's just a pity that the brat still can't understand this matter and gives up on himself every day, which has annoyed me..." After True Person Chang Lu finished speaking, he handed a Storage Bag to Bai Lan: "Although, a thank-you gift still needs to be given to the Young Pavilion Master."

Bai Lan's eyes suddenly lit up. She took the Storage Bag, and her tone became much lighter. "Uncle, you're too kind. Actually, it's not necessary to go to so much trouble. I just asked Long Aotian about it after giving him a beating."

"Forget it, give me back the Storage Bag." True Person Chang Lu stretched out his hand.

Bai Lan quickly put the Storage Bag into her sleeve. "Is there anything else, Uncle-Master? If not, I'm leaving."

"Look at you! Your temperament is too poor. You should go and undergo the Mortal Tribulation, lest you die on the path of breakthrough." True Person Chang Lu couldn't stand Bai Lan's money-grubbing appearance and couldn't help but point and criticize. "We are cultivators, we can't be like this!"

Bai Lan didn't ignore these nagging words. Instead, a thought struck her, and she caught the key phrase. " The Mortal Tribulation?"

"Before each breakthrough to a major realm, cultivators not only face the dual tests of lightning tribulation and the pressure of the Heavenly Dao, but also need sufficient mental strength to overcome the tribulations of inner demons. If one's mental strength is insufficient, even if one escapes the lightning tribulation, it will be of no use." True Person Chang Lu shook his head slightly. "Before I formed my core, I spent several years in the mortal world as a mortal before I felt I had gained some understanding. Not long after joining the sect, I went into seclusion and broke through to the Core Formation Realm."

Bai Lan nodded, seemingly understanding, "I see..."

That's right. When True Person Qing Xuan was undergoing his tribulation, he brought Bai Ling with him. He was probably preparing for breaking through to the Nascent Soul.

"What, is Junior Nephew going to undergo tribulation?" True Person Chang Lu raised an eyebrow.

Bai Lan smiled and waved her hand, "How could that be? I'm only at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, and I'm still a long way from Core Formation. I'm not considering such things right now."

Actually, it's getting late. Perhaps she should go to the Human Realm to undergo her tribulation. After all, during her next period of seclusion, Bai Lan plans to consume a large amount of rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures stage.

"Yeah?"

True Person Chang Lu didn't believe it, and just chuckled, "Why do I feel a sense of eagerness in your appearance? Young people are full of adventurous spirit. It's a pity, a pity, the Mortal Tribulation are not so easy to overcome."

"What do you mean?" Bai Lan asked curiously. Perhaps it was because of a certain Bai Ling in the harem that the matter of undergoing tribulation became less important to Bai Lan.

"The matter of tribulation itself has no clear goal; everything is mainly about tempering one's mind. Therefore, many cultivators have been undergoing tribulation for several years, or even decades, but they still cannot fathom its mysteries, and their mind remains unchanged." True Person Chang Lu stroked his long beard, looked at Bai Lan, and sighed with a meaningful expression.

"It's like comprehending the Great Dao. The chosen ones can easily touch upon the Great Dao, but ordinary cultivators, if they lack the aptitude, will never be able to comprehend it even if they try until they die."

To True Person Chang Lu, Bai Lan was the Child of Destiny.

Bai Lan deeply understands this, but to her, she is the cannon fodder cultivator behind the Child of Destiny, the one who could never comprehend even if she died trying.

The techniques Divine Ability Cultivation Method that the Child of Destiny can comprehend in a day, she would need to reload her save file dozens or even hundreds of times to grasp.

Oh no! If the Child of Destiny only needs one year to overcome the tribulation... she won't have to overcome it for ten years, or even a hundred years, will she?

Seeing Bai Lan deep in thought, True Person Chang Lu leaned closer again. " Young Pavilion Master, I've been good to you, haven't I? I used to only share this kind of experience with my direct disciples, but now I'm telling you the exact details."

Bai Lan nodded. "My martial uncle is a paralyzed person."

"In that case, once Ling Fan joins the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, I hope the Young Pavilion Master will give him much guidance and make things convenient for him." True Person Chang Lu cupped his hands and stuffed another Storage Bag over.

Bai Lan raised an eyebrow. Of course, she wouldn't mind taking care of Ling Fan and doing him a favor.

There's no other reason than that Ling Fen has fallen to this state because of Long Aotian.

He was harmed so badly by Long Aotian, it's impossible for him not to hate Long Aotian. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Long Aotian is the most ruthless person in the cultivation world.

As far as Bai Lan is concerned, those who hate Long Aotian are all scoundrels, all of whom can restrain Long Aotian for her!

Bai Lan replied to Yang Luo, "Don't worry, Uncle-Master. Within the sect, we are still uncle and nephew, and Ling Fen is also my Senior Sister. Of course, I will take care of my junior brother."

After taking the two Storage Bag from the man, Bai Lan felt much better.

"Then thank you very much, Young Pavilion Master." Seeing that his purpose had been achieved, True Person Chang Lu did not linger any longer. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Bai Lan, he turned and left.

Ling Fen had been wandering in the Demonic Path realm for a long time; it was a miracle he was still alive. He had to go out and find medicine for his disciple.

Bai Lan watched the other person's departing figure, lost in thought... Mortal Tribulation?

Bai Lan's strength is that she listens to advice. Since True Person Chang Lu advised her to undergo the tribulation, she didn't mind doing so.

After all, transcending tribulation doesn't take her much time. It took True Person Chang Lu three or four years to transcend tribulation, but Bai Lan doesn't need to. She can just reload her save file after she's done it. For her, it's just a matter of going back and forth every two or three days. All she needs is to temper her mind.

Once the idea was in mind, Bai Lan immediately turned around, mounted her sword, and changed direction, heading towards the Human Realm.

The Human Realm is vast, Human Realm the Human Realm, it is actually still within the scope of the cultivation world; it's just a colloquial term used among cultivators.

To be precise, it was actually a celestial barrier created by ancient cultivators to separate the land with relatively scarce spiritual energy from the current cultivation world.

Mortals cannot cross the barrier to see cultivators, but cultivators can freely cross the barrier to see mortals.

Bai Lan didn't survive the tribulation, but if True Person Qing Xuan could overcome it with Bai Ling, then it shouldn't be too difficult.

If you haven't completed the rites, just reload the save file.

After a moment's thought, Yin Bai Lan decided that the tribulation was something she wanted to experience, so she decided to start from birth and undergo an immersive tribulation!

According to Bai Lan, if a cultivator wants to disguise themselves, they need to take Disguise Pill to maintain the illusion.

But this is unnecessary for mortals; she only needs to set up a slight illusion to deceive them.

Extending his Divine Sense to search the surroundings, Bai Lan, under the influence of the Wonderful Eyes Technique, found the home of a couple whose bodies were radiating golden light. After looking around and feeling satisfied, he decided that this was the place.

Although he was plagued by Sha Qi, his adoptive parents still wanted to find someone with good morals to suppress them.

If we are to experience the life of an ordinary person, then let us begin our journey from birth.

Bai Lan knew a whole host of things about not being allowed to use cultivator Mystical Technique or interfere with the lives of mortals during the tribulation, but she was still confused. She said that immortal techniques were not allowed, but she didn't say that she couldn't reload her save file during the tribulation.

Once everything was ready, Bai Lan attempted to inhabit the womb of a pregnant woman. The woman was originally carrying only one child, but Bai Lan's appearance changed her destiny of having only one child to having both a son and a daughter... Perhaps this could be considered an act that interfered with the fate of mortals? But it doesn't matter, let's try the tribulation first!

Firstly, Bai Lan wanted to be a great philanthropist.

From the time he began his studies, he studied medicine every day, vowing to become a good doctor who could seek medical advice and medicine and save lives.

Her wish was beautiful, but reality was cruel; the adoptive parents she randomly chose were stubborn.

They firmly believed that if a woman did not have the destiny to become an immortal and embark on the path of cultivation, she should honestly live as a mortal, marry someone, and raise children.

In a fit of anger, Bai Lan was forced to leave home and begin traveling around as an itinerant doctor.

Such a tragic experience, such a tortuous past, and such unwavering faith.

She had always thought she would become a renowned doctor in the mortal world, leaving a lasting mark on history.

Unfortunately, Heavenly Dao was unfair, and she was prevented from becoming a great philanthropist.

Later, unable to tolerate the local tyrants' oppression of the people, she killed them in a fit of rage.

She killed the scumbag in a fit of rage because she couldn't stand him killing his wife to achieve immortality.

Unable to tolerate the way spoiled young men preyed on respectable women, he killed one of them in a fit of rage.

Unable to tolerate the oppression of the people by corrupt officials, he killed the county magistrate in a fit of rage.

Finally, unsurprisingly, an accident occurred.

Bai Lan was wanted by the government less than half a year after he went on his travels.

From then on, Bai Lan was certain of one thing: this emperor was not a mad emperor. If he were, why would he issue a warrant for the arrest of such a philanthropist as her?

Enraged, she rose up in rebellion, raised an army, and began her uprising.

Bai Lan always kept in mind that one must not use Mystical Technique during training.

However, it doesn't say that using immortal techniques is prohibited, but it doesn't say that using Daoist techniques is prohibited.

She can indeed draw Fire Talisman.
