After reading the Secrets of the True Dragon Nest in his hand, Xiao Yun immediately looked at Di Tian with excitement and said, "Master, I've decided. In a year, I'm going to the True Dragon Nest."
Di Tian pondered for a moment before saying, "The True Dragon Nest is extremely dangerous. You need at least five hundred thousand jin of strength to be safe. If you cannot reach that level, I will not let you enter."
Xiao Yun said confidently, "Rest assured, Master. Before entering the True Dragon Nest, I will definitely reach seven hundred thousand jin of strength."
Di Tian smiled. "If that is the case, I will not stop you. Cultivate well. If there is anything you do not understand, you may ask Uncle Fu or me."
"I understand!" Xiao Yun nodded, then happily sat to one side and feasted on spirit beast meat.
At that moment, Lin Xiaoya raised her head and looked at Uncle Fu. "Master, can I go to the True Dragon Nest too?"
"No!" Uncle Fu shook his head without hesitation. "With that little strength of yours, once you enter the True Dragon Nest, you will probably be killed within days.
Do you really think the only dangers inside the True Dragon Nest are those ten descendants of ancient bloodlines?
To seize heavenly treasures, cultivators from the major sects will slaughter one another as well. With your current strength, you are still far from qualified to enter the True Dragon Nest."
Di Tian, standing nearby, also nodded. "That's right. Every time the True Dragon Nest opens, countless geniuses enter it.
Among them, geniuses who have stepped into the Body Refining Extreme Realm can be found everywhere.
As for geniuses who have entered the Forbidden Realm, their numbers are also considerable. Ordinary Body Refining Realm cultivators who enter are nothing more than cannon fodder, going there only to die."
Lin Xiaoya could not help looking pitifully at Xiao Yun across from her. Her face was full of expectation as she said, "Isn't Senior Brother going too? Senior Brother, you'll definitely protect Xiaoya, right?"
Xiao Yun was just about to nod when Uncle Fu sternly rebuked him, "Silence! The Young Master is entering to surpass his limits. If you follow at his side, you will only hold him back and put the Young Master in danger instead."
Lin Xiaoya pursed her lips, but she did not continue arguing.
Xiao Yun smiled. "Uncle Fu, it would actually be fine to let Xiaoya enter. If we only face Body Refining Realm cultivators, I am still confident I can protect her."
Uncle Fu shook his head. "Bringing along this burden will ultimately drag you down. It is too risky."
"I'm not a burden..." Lin Xiaoya muttered from the side. Only after Uncle Fu glared at her did she lower her head and fall silent.
Xiao Yun smiled. "Uncle Fu, do you still not believe in my strength? According to Master, even the strongest special physiques possess only four hundred thousand jin of strength after reaching the extreme realm.
Even if they cultivate one Super Combat Technique, they will only have five hundred thousand jin of strength. Even if they cultivate two Super Combat Techniques, they will only have six hundred thousand jin. But I possess combat power of seven hundred thousand jin. I may not be able to sweep them all aside, but I can definitely protect myself."
Uncle Fu hesitated. Letting Lin Xiaoya enter the True Dragon Nest would indeed bring benefits. After all, following behind Xiao Yun, she could always pick up some heavenly treasures. She might not reach the Forbidden Realm, but attaining the Body Refining Extreme Realm should not be a problem.
However, Uncle Fu knew that Di Tian had invested heavily in Xiao Yun. He could not allow Xiao Yun to face even the slightest danger.
Just then, Di Tian smiled and said, "How about this? If Xiao Yun truly possesses seven hundred thousand jin of strength before entering the True Dragon Nest, then let Xiaoya accompany him inside."
Since Di Tian had spoken, Uncle Fu naturally would not stop it any longer.

"Yay!" Seeing this, Lin Xiaoya immediately cheered. She happily saluted Di Tian. "Many thanks to the Supreme Elder for granting this!"
Di Tian smiled faintly.
Uncle Fu scolded her from the side, "Don't celebrate too early. Since you want to enter the True Dragon Nest, then to keep you from holding the Young Master back, I will continuously temper you over the coming year and make you stronger as soon as possible."
"Ah..." Lin Xiaoya immediately drooped her head, her face filled with worry. She knew just how miserable the next year would be.
Seeing Lin Xiaoya's pitiable appearance, Xiao Yun and Di Tian both burst into laughter.
Chaos Holy Land, Tian Yi Peak.
This was the residence of Supreme Elder Tian Yi.
At this moment, inside a magnificent hall on Tian Yi Peak, Supreme Elder Tian Yi was refining a pill furnace. Blazing fire burned fiercely, brilliant light shone within the furnace, and a faint fragrance that refreshed the heart and mind drifted out.
At his side, Chu Jingxiao and Zhu Ping attended him respectfully.
Before long, Supreme Elder Tian Yi finished refining it. He opened the pill furnace, and three golden pills floated out and landed in his hand.
Chu Jingxiao immediately stared longingly at the three Golden Cores in Supreme Elder Tian Yi's hand.
Supreme Elder Tian Yi looked at Chu Jingxiao with a smile. "Disciple, these are God-Awakening Pills that I refined at the cost of countless heavenly treasures. They can help you step into the Body Refining Extreme Realm within one month and enter the One-Ban Realm within one year."
With that, Supreme Elder Tian Yi handed the three Golden Cores to Chu Jingxiao.
Chu Jingxiao accepted the Golden Cores, then prostrated himself on the ground in gratitude and called out, "This disciple thanks Master for nurturing me. Once I enter the True Dragon Nest, I will definitely obtain sacred medicine for you and help you become a Saint in the future."
Supreme Elder Tian Yi nodded in satisfaction and smiled. "Go cultivate first. I still need to continue refining battle armor and a battle saber for you, so that your combat power may increase."
"Thank you, Master. This disciple will not disturb you any longer. Master, do not exhaust yourself too much for this disciple. Please rest well!"
Chu Jingxiao felt deeply grateful. He respectfully bowed, then withdrew from the great hall.
As he watched Chu Jingxiao leave, the smile on Supreme Elder Tian Yi's face immediately vanished.
Zhu Ping hesitated at his side. "Master, the Young Master's aptitude is limited. Even if he enters the One-Ban Realm, he will hold no advantage in the True Dragon Nest. What if..."
Supreme Elder Tian Yi snorted coldly. "If he dies, then he dies. If one disciple is gone, I can take another next time. But if he can bring back a stalk of sacred medicine for me, the return will be ten million times greater."
After all, the God-Awakening Pills he had refined for Chu Jingxiao had merely consumed some low-grade heavenly treasures. Compared to sacred medicine, the difference was like heaven and earth.
In Tian Yi's eyes, disciples and subordinates were no different. They were merely chess pieces used to increase his gains, pieces that could be discarded at any time.
In Tian Yi's heart, only his own strength mattered most.
With me, none can stand undefeated. That is the foundation!
Tian Yi sneered and inwardly mocked, *That idiot Di Tian has only a hundred years left to live, yet instead of seizing the time to enter seclusion and cultivate, he actually goes and takes disciples. He is simply courting death.
So what if his disciples are powerful? A hundred years from now, he will still be nothing but a handful of yellow earth. What benefit will powerful disciples bring him? At most, he will gain a pleasant posthumous reputation!*
