The Son of Destiny, Lin Zisheng

This is the condensation of Qi into liquid. While the spiritual energy in the dantian of a Qi Refining realm cultivator is gaseous, the spiritual energy in the dantian of a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator manifests as a liquid.

The difference between the two is vast.

"Junior Brother Ye, how do you feel?"

At this moment, Zhao Li set down the table in his hands with a calm expression and asked with a smile.

"I feel very powerful right now. In terms of my physical body alone, I am more than twice as strong as I was before. Furthermore, my entire body is brimming with strength."

Ye Lin clenched his fists and said in a low voice.

"Not bad. This medicinal bath not only lays the foundation for your breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment realm, but it also strengthens your physique and improves your physical fitness."

Looking at Ye Lin, Zhao Li felt a wave of envy; only those who had soaked in it knew just how incredible this medicinal bath truly was.

However, every portion of the medicinal herbs required too much mental effort to prepare, so each Inner Sect disciple only had one chance to enjoy it.

"Alright, since that is the case, Junior Brother, go down and prepare quickly. Three days from now is the day the Inner Sect Secret Realm opens. This is a grand event that only happens once every ten years."

"Make sure you don't miss it."

Hearing this, Ye Lin nodded. He had come specifically for this, so how could he possibly miss it?

"Then, Senior Brother, I shall take my leave."

Ye Lin put on his clothes, cupped his hands toward Zhao Li, and then headed toward his residence.

"I truly have a keen eye for talent. With this level of perseverance alone, his future achievements will certainly not be low."

Watching Ye Lin's retreating figure, Zhao Li nodded with satisfaction.

Cultivation requires not only high innate talent but also unremitting perseverance. Without this perseverance, no matter how high one's talent is, it is all for naught.

"I must adjust myself to my absolute peak state. The Inner Sect Secret Realm is filled with too many uncertain factors."

Ye Lin sat on his bed and muttered to himself. In his past life, he was a bookworm, and he knew well that once one entered a secret realm, even those as close as brothers could slaughter each other for the sake of a treasure.

"Right, I have already dealt with Lin Ziyou. Now, let me see what my fate holds."

Name: Ye Lin
Cultivation: Qi Refining, 8th Layer
Fate Grade: Black (Cursed with Bad Luck)
Fate Logic: [Cursed with Bad Luck][Divine Comprehension]
Destiny: The fact that you defeated Lin Ziyou becomes known to his older brother, the direct disciple Lin Zisheng. Lin Zisheng is enraged and assassinates you three days later within the Inner Sect Secret Realm. You are no match for him and ultimately die at Lin Zisheng's hands.
Recent Opportunity: None
[Cursed with Bad Luck]: Your luck is relatively poor; for example, you are guaranteed to trip while walking and guaranteed to be cheated on if you marry.
[Divine Comprehension]: Your comprehension is transcendent. You learn various cultivation techniques at an extremely fast speed. For the same technique, while others need three months, you only need a few days.

"Lin Zisheng? A direct disciple?"

After reading his destiny, Ye Lin's expression turned grim. He had not expected Lin Ziyou to have an older brother named Lin Zisheng. As far as he knew, there were five direct disciples in total.

And all five of these individuals were in the Foundation Establishment realm.

"Lin Zisheng, is it? Very well. If even a Lin Ziyou had a green fate grade, then as a direct disciple, your fate grade shouldn't be low, right?"

Ye Lin's fighting spirit surged once more. Now that he possessed a Sword Talisman, even if he encountered Lin Zisheng in the secret realm, he could retreat unscathed.

As for outside the secret realm, even if Lin Zisheng were a direct disciple, he would not dare to make a move against him. After all, disciples killing one another was a major taboo in any sect.

"Since that's the case, then come. With the help of the Fate Panel, I, Ye Lin, have never feared anyone."

Having said this, Ye Lin closed his eyes to rest, bringing his state to its peak.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed in a flash. On this day, the entire Inner Sect was in an uproar.

Countless disciples who had been in seclusion emerged one after another, and streaks of light appeared above the Nine Great Peaks. The atmosphere of the entire Azure Cloud Sect reached its zenith.

Because today was the day the Inner Sect Secret Realm would open.

"It is time."

At this moment, Ye Lin opened his eyes.

After tidying up, he walked out the door and headed toward the Inner Sect Main Hall.

Unlike the Outer Sect, the Inner Sect had its own exclusive Inner Sect Main Hall.

Upon arriving at the Inner Sect Main Hall, there were countless figures all around. These were the Inner Sect disciples, the true foundation of the Azure Cloud Sect.

"Everyone, today is the day our Azure Cloud Sect's Inner Sect Secret Realm opens. I presume you have all been looking forward to this for a long time. Please follow me."

At this moment, a figure appeared at the front of the hall—an old man with white hair.

The old man walked in front, with the disciples following behind, all the way to a mountain cave.

"Ahead lies our Azure Cloud Sect's secret realm. It is about to open now. Please, disciples, prepare yourselves."

"I'm so excited. I've waited for this day for seven whole years."

"Seven years is nothing. I've been waiting for eighteen years, eighteen years!"

Watching the secret realm about to open, the surrounding disciples began to grow restless with excitement.

At this moment, Ye Lin felt someone staring at him and immediately turned to look, seeing five streaks of light flying through the sky—three men and two women.

Atop the streaks of light were the five personal disciples, hovering in the air on their flying swords. Seeing this scene, some of the Inner Sect disciples below were filled with envy.

To be in the Foundation Establishment Realm and already capable of sword flight—among the men present, who wouldn't want to soar through the skies on a sword?

"It's him. This man's gaze is filled with killing intent."

Ye Lin stared at one of the three men, muttering to himself.

Just then, a panel appeared before Ye Lin's eyes.

Name: Lin Zisheng

Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Early Stage

Fate Grade: Yellow

Destiny Traits: [Transcendental Luck] [Sword Dao Leader] [Divine Comprehension] [Child of Heaven's Favor] [Reincarnated Great Being]

Destiny: After experiencing many hardships along the way, he eventually breaks through to the Mahayana stage and becomes one of the great beings of the human race, only to be struck dead by the heavenly tribulation upon his final ascension to immortality.

Recent Opportunity 1: In the Phoenix Valley of the secret realm, he finds an egg left behind by an ancient phoenix. He later hatches it to obtain an ancient phoenix cub, which helps him avoid numerous life-or-death crises along his journey.

Recent Opportunity 2: One month later, while descending the mountain to slay demons, he is attacked by an evil spirit on the Hundred-Broken Mountain and falls off a cliff. At the bottom, he obtains a Profound-grade high-tier spirit fruit, the North Wind Fruit. After consuming it, his cultivation advances significantly, and he steps into the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage in one fell swoop.

Recent Opportunity 3: One and a half months later, in the Fate Treasure Pavilion at the Golden City antique market, he purchases the only worn-out vase at a low price. After breaking it, he discovers an ancient mural hidden inside. Upon comprehending it, he acquires the ancient immortal technique, One Breath Becomes Three Purities.

[Transcendental Luck]: Your luck is exceptionally good. You always stumble upon opportunities while walking, and even when encountering life-or-death crises, you can turn danger into safety. [Sword Dao Leader]: A natural talent for sword practice. You possess an understanding of the Sword Dao that surpasses ordinary people, and you progress with lightning speed on the path of the sword. [Divine Comprehension]: Your comprehension is transcendental. You learn various techniques at an extremely fast speed; for the same technique that takes others three months, you only need a few days. [Child of Heaven's Favor]: You are favored by the Heavenly Dao's fortune. On the path of cultivation, you have no bottlenecks; breaking through is as simple as eating or drinking. [Reincarnated Great Being]: You are the reincarnation of a great being from the Immortal Realm, though your soul was damaged and your memories sealed during the process. Once you reach the Nascent Soul Realm, your memories will be unsealed, and from then on, you will be like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, with everything going smoothly.

Looking at Lin Zisheng's fate panel, Ye Lin was instantly stunned, his eyes nearly blinded by the brilliance.

Such a panel made four words come to mind: Child of Fortune.

This couldn't help but put him under a bit of pressure; a Child of Fortune was nothing to trifle with.

However, I have the Fate Panel. So what if you're a Child of Fortune? I'll still take you down. And as a Child of Fortune, all your opportunities will be mine.

Having thought it through, a mysterious smile appeared on Ye Lin's face.

The Child of Fortune certainly had many opportunities, but in the end, they would all be to his benefit.
