Next, Old Yuan asked him in detail about his experience during this period. What he had read before was all mentioned in the post. So Peak Expert, who guessed what "night" was, must not believe it.

In his eyes, the Internet is a new thing that has appeared in the past few decades. As for the forum, it was the shade of the trees and the pergola where the aunts used to talk to their wives at the entrance of the village. What was said there had to be listened to in half, with 30% true and 70% false.

But for his good disciple to achieve such a big name, he must have real qualities, so he wanted to hear these legendary experiences from the perspective of "Ye" himself.

This is just right. Originally, the descriptions on the forum were somewhat exaggerated. In order to make the growth of his own strength more reasonable, Luo Jun deliberately kept the details in his statement. This made Old Yuan more confident in his own judgment: those idiots on the Internet are all bragging!

"So, Savage Wilderness, the Secret Realm that put Clan Troops in danger, is actually a huge Underground Trial Grounds. Each layer will deprive Cultivators of its abilities. In the end, we can only rely on Innate Potential challenge." Luo Jun spread his hands. "So Master, you know, how many Innate Potentials can beat me? By some mistake, I became Peak Expert who surpassed many masters..."

"I see..." Old Yuan nodded. "Let me tell you, Ling Xin is all folded inside, and you can actually come over..."

"Master, aren't you surprised at all?" Luo Jun asked, "Savage Wilderness came out with Man-made Ruins! Wildlands Hunter Guild has blocked the news..."

"It's nothing to be surprised about." Old Yuan waved his hand. "We still know very little about Different World, and there are many secrets you don't know. When your strength reaches a certain level, you will naturally understand it."

"Xinmi...?" Luo Jun thought for a while and asked:

"For example, about the realm above Feather Transformation?"

"Huh?" Old Yuan raised his eyebrows. "Where did you hear that there are others above Feather Transformation?"

"I didn't hear it, I saw it..." Luo Jun sighed, "I was the only one who passed the fifth level trial and came to the deepest part of Trial Grounds. There, I saw five murals."

After listening to Luo Jun's description, Old Yuan was silent for a while, and then suddenly said something seemingly irrelevant.

Old Yuan nodded. "This is an adjective that Epic Treasure Item often appears, and generally refers to a master of Heart Condensation Realm High Stage level. In the same way, the corresponding one is famous, which is at a similar level."

"So... there is such a connection?" Luo Jun said in surprise, "Then further down, where is Rare-level's Noble Phantasm?"

Old Yuan shook his head. "That's the most basic description... Take out the Escort Spirit Talisman I gave you just now."

"Luo Jun, have you paid attention to the description in the Noble Phantasm information?"

"Description?" Luo Jun was stunned, and then asked, "Does it mean the function? Or the last remarks?"

As he spoke, Old Yuan took a pen and wrote two words.

Old Yuan smiled and nodded, "Based on the current research, it is basically certain that 'Profoundly Powerful' can be regarded as the exclusive description of the Ascension Realm... But not all Ascension Realm will use this word. Depending on their race or position and other factors, they may also be described as 'mysterious'."

Luo Jun nodded. "Indeed, every Noble Phantasm seems to have it. Isn't this just a background introduction?"

Luo Jun described the content of the mural. "Master, if my understanding is correct, the content there should be Savage Wilderness's ancient Gods and Devils war, right? In it, the powerful existences of humans and monsters are higher-level existences than the immortals of Feather Transformation?"

"Rare-level, Fine-level and Common-level's Noble Phantasms do not have so many fixed descriptions. It is speculated that the characters associated with these people's Noble Phantasms are not that powerful or famous, so there is no need for such a specialized description." At this point, Old Yuan paused, looked into Luo Jun's eyes, and said slowly:

"The background introduction just reflects some ancient secrets." Old Yuan shook his head. "Do you know what the 'existence of Profoundly Powerful' mentioned here means?"

Luo Jun was stunned and took out Azure Dragon Crescent Blade from Hundred Treasure Box. There was a word used when describing the previous owner of this weapon.

Luo Jun read it and unconsciously recited, "The Supreme Being... cannot look directly at it!"

"Leave a name in history."

"As for the method of determination, it is also very simple." Old Yuan said with a smile, "Currently, the highest level of Noble Phantasms that humans Refining Masters can produce is only Epic-level. And the descriptions of the makers of these Noble Phantasms are basically the names left in history... Very Many people speculate that this is because there is no Refining Masters of the Ascension Realm. Once a certain Refining Masters becomes an immortal, he is likely to be able to create a legendary Noble Phantasm, and the description of him in the Noble Phantasm may become Profoundly Powerful."

Old Yuan nodded. "If Profoundly Powerful and mysteriousness correspond to the Ascension Realm, then what does supreme and invisibility correspond to?"

"A particularly powerful Cultivators in ancient times?" Luo Jun really hadn't paid attention to these introductions. Under Old Yuan's prompting, he suddenly realized. "Could this description imply a realm?"

"These two adjectives often appear in legends or the descriptions of Epic-level's Noble Phantasms. You should have obtained many Noble Phantasms. Have you noticed that there are similar adjectives?"

"But above these, there is a pair of adjectives that can only be seen in legends and even Mythic Treasure Item."

After Luo Jun took it out, Old Yuan pointed it out to him. "It's a treasure made by a certain Profoundly Powerful existence so that his beloved disciple can successfully overcome the disaster."

Luo Jun took a deep breath. "God... god?"

"At least, it is an existence above the immortals." Old Yuan smiled, "This is also one of the evidences we have currently that there is a higher realm."

"Just... evidence?" Luo Jun captured the details in the words.

Old Yuan nodded. "Yes, currently, no matter in Main World or Different World, humans have not really come into contact with any existence above Feather Transformation! But there are various signs that this kind of True God is likely to be real."

"The mural you saw this time is another piece of evidence. The one on the side of humans in it should be a 'supreme' being, while the one on the side of monsters corresponds to an 'invisible' existence!"

Old Yuan's words basically prove Luo Jun's previous conjecture.

"Master, if the content on the mural is true, then looking at the current state of Savage Wilderness, does it mean that the 'supreme' existence has failed? The current Savage Wilderness is controlled by the 'unable to be seen' existence?"

Old Yuan nodded. "Your guess is possible. We don't know much about the realm above Feather Transformation yet. It is still unknown whether they are just stronger creatures of a higher level, or whether they are really as powerful as we understand Deity."

"You haven't told Ling Family this information yet, have you?"

Luo Jun spread his hands. "Not yet, but I revealed a few details and offered them a lot of benefits."

Old Yuan nodded. "You can knock more, but in the end I still want to take a breath with them. I don't know if we have studied the other world more deeply. In recent years, there are more and more evidences about the existence of Feather Transformation...Savage Wilderness is still in charge of the Ling Family after all. If something really happens, let them be mentally prepared."

Luo Jun nodded. "By the way Master, about my Chaos Mission..."

"You still have to respond to every call, right?" Old Yuan was also thinking about this special feature of his apprentice.

"Well... you can avoid the summons only after entering another world, but as long as you return to Main World, you must go in when summoned."

Old Yuan waved his hand. "It doesn't matter. With your current level, your actual combat ability is relatively strong compared to the Heart Refining Realm. The average Chaos Mission is not that dangerous."

"Why not..." Luo Jun said aggrievedly, "If it was just a simple test of force, I would still be confident, but the content of Chaos Mission is very strange. Some rules require that all members of the team be buried together when the team is finished. When encountering such a situation, it is difficult to control one's own life and death... Master, do you have a way to block the recruitment?"

"Buried with him?" Old Yuan was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "By the way, you haven't experienced Chaos Mission's Death Process yet, have you?"

"Death... is there a process?" Luo Jun blinked, not knowing why.

"Chaos Mission will not kill people directly..." Old Yuan waved his hand. "The death methods in Chaos Mission are divided into two types: normal death and mechanical death."

"If you are killed by a mechanism or monster during the execution of the mission, and there is no resurrection mechanism in the end, it is a normal death. If you die, you are dead, and there is no possibility of survival."

"But if you survive the entire mission and are eventually judged dead because of mission failure, this is mechanical death. Mechanical death will not directly erase Cultivators who participated in the mission, but will activate Death Process, or Annihilation Program."

"What process?" Luo Jun asked curiously.

"To put it simply, it is to create a scene that is enough to kill you based on your current realm and the Noble Phantasm you hold. It is usually a powerful monster or mechanism, and you are required to survive for ten minutes." Old Yuan introduced, "Because it is tailor-made, more than 90% of people will die in Death Process, so even if it is not directly wiped out, very few people can survive."

"But you are different..." Old Yuan said with a smile, "Your real Combat Power is far beyond your current level. It is not a big problem to survive in Death Process."

"Is there such a mechanism?" Luo Jun asked in surprise, "But aren't the missions released based on actual combat capabilities? For example, although I am only Body Refinement Realm, I have been matched with Tier A Mission, and I have basically completed missions with the Heart Refining Realm. When I encounter Death Process, will I also be at the Heart Refining Realm level?"

Luo Jun's current combat ability is definitely top-notch, but facing Death Process who can't resist 90% of the Heart Refining Realm's, he is still somewhat unsure.

"Well, the Chaos Mission research department of Yuan Cultivation Society has done a survey, and it is speculated that the level of Chaos Mission has nothing to do with the participant's own realm, and it depends entirely on how well you have completed the task before..."

"For example, Tier D Mission, as long as it survives three times in total, the next mission will be upgraded to level C."

"Tier C Mission, if you get a pass rating or above three times in total, you will be upgraded to Tier B in the next mission."

"When you reach Tier B, if you reach a rating of good or above three times in total, the next mission will be upgraded to level A."

"At the same time, for the above three levels, as long as you obtain Perfect Evaluation once, you will be promoted directly regardless of other conditions."

Luo Jun nodded after hearing this. "So I was promoted after experiencing Tower of Choice. What about Class A? Is it three times of excellent evaluation or above?"

He is now in the A-level stage, and has been excellent and perfect once. If he is excellent next time and is promoted, he will be the legendary special grade!

At that level, it is really possible for teammates to encounter Peak, or even Ascension Expert!

"The promotion from Class A to Special Class is quite special." Old Yuan shook his head. "Because the difficulty gap between these two levels is the largest, the qualification for promotion has become Perfect Evaluation three times. Tier A Mission It is already difficult enough, but it takes three times to perfect, which is easier said than done! Foundation Establishment Realm all over the world There are more than 70,000 registered Cultivators above. Counting those who are hidden, it is conservatively estimated to be more than 100,000. Among these people, it is estimated that there are only about a hundred people who are qualified to experience Tier S Mission. And at this level, there is no distinction between countries and cultures. No matter where they come from, they may be assigned the same task."

Three times perfect... Luo Jun After calculating it, he still missed two times. "Then the level can only be upgraded, not dropped?"

"Yes." Old Yuan nodded. "As long as it is continuous, please note that if you fail three times in a row, you will drop a level."

"So, if you think the current task is too difficult, will someone deliberately sabotage the task and fail?" Luo Jun asked.

"There are also people who seek death." Old Yuan shook his head. "But it's very rare, because Chaos Mission's failure not only affects his own evaluation, but may also cause the team to fail and cause Death Process. The risk is too great. Rather than dropping a grade, more people choose to delay promotion. For example, reduce the number of missions they participate in, or ignore everything except Main Quest and lower their evaluation."

"Of course, there are thresholds for mission advancement. If you don't have enough strength, you may not be able to advance even if you want to. Not to mention you don't want to. So most people are basically stuck in Tier B and Level C. This level can be handled by oneself, and it is not easy to trigger Death Process."

Luo Jun nodded. "So Master, what level are you at now?"

"Grade A!" Old Yuan said with a smile, "Maybe one day, our master and apprentice will meet in Chaos Mission."

"Then...Master Have you tried Death Process?"

"Of course." Old Yuan shrugged. "I am the strongest Foundation Establishment Realm. Over the years, I have broken through Death Process countless times. I am very experienced..."

"So awesome!" Luo Jun looked at Master with eyes full of awe, but then he reacted. "Hey, wait... Does that mean that your old missions often fail?"

"... The traitor is talking nonsense!"

Old Yuan glared, and Luo Jun was so frightened that he immediately shrank his head and ran away.

The reminiscence between master and apprentice did not last long. Just when Old Yuan was about to test his apprentice, the phone suddenly rang.

"Hey... Okay, I understand... You go as planned first, I'll be there soon... Don't worry, it's no problem, I have a way to make her talk."

After hanging up the phone, Old Yuan sighed, "Come on, this ass is not hot yet, I have to go back to Yuan Cultivation Society."

"What's so urgent?" Luo Jun asked curiously.

"Not yet..." Old Yuan said halfway, looked at Luo Jun, and shook his head. "Forget it, it's not your concern. After finishing the matter here, I have to go back to Xiluo next month, and they are urging me..."

"Isn't the work over there finished yet?" Luo Jun asked with concern, "What kind of mission is it? Is there any danger?"

"It's okay..." Old Yuan waved his hand and said, "Originally, I was planning to stay there until the end of the year. This time I just took advantage of the time to come back for purification. Firstly, I will give you Escort Spirit Talisman, and secondly, I will also deal with Yuan Cultivation Society. Some things about, and by the way, I want to deal with the harassment of the Ling Family... I was originally worried about whether there was something wrong with your practice, but now it seems that not only has there been steady progress, but it has far exceeded my expectations! I can go back with peace of mind."

"Master, why don't you go." Luo Jun is also worried about Old Yuan's safety. "I have always been lucky, and with your Escort Spirit Talisman, I will definitely be able to break through the seventh floor smoothly. There is no need to take risks for me. Let's retire safely in Ningdong..."

"Why, in your eyes, I'm only worthy of old age, right?" Old Yuan knocked on his head, and it felt as hard as an iron ball, which made his joints ache. But Old Yuan was not angry but happy, and touched Luo Jun's head.

"I'm not just doing it for you. After all, I have to finish what I promised... Don't worry, the most difficult part of the task has been conquered. There are only some finishing tasks left. I will definitely be back before the end of the year. If you break through Seventh Layer by then, I will be able to help you break through Peiyuan!"

"You are going to enter [Martial World] tomorrow, right? After entering, be sure to listen to the teacher and don't run around. The world is not like Savage Wilderness. In addition to rare birds and animals, there are also a large number of powerful masters. Their skills are superb and cannot be compared to those silly monsters. Be careful not to have any accidents."

"Don't worry Master, I'm not the rookie I was a few months ago!" Luo Jun patted his chest.

"Don't be complacent! To survive in this extraordinary world, you must be cautious and low-key in everything you do. Remember one sentence, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world. Before you achieve great success, try not to attract anyone's attention..."

After a few more instructions, the old man left in a hurry and rushed to Yuan Cultivation Society's branch.

Looking at Master's back, Luo Jun sighed in his heart, it will be the end of the year before we meet again. I hope everything is safe for Master...

After sending Master away, Luo Jun went to the dean's office to report. At this time, several professors including Song Yi and Tie Jingang were studying something inside. Well. I heard that Old Yuan left in a hurry, the dean's face flashed with displeasure for a moment, and then nodded. "I understand, you go back to the classroom first, Teacher Tie will go back to continue training you later."

ps. According to feedback from book friends, some adjustments were made to the two chapters yesterday. Although the main content has not changed, the arrangement is relatively reasonable. If you are interested, you can read it again. The modifications will not affect the subsequent plot.
