"Young master, anyone who establishes an ascendancy in Eternal Ancient has the myriad races of the heavens beneath their command." Shu Chen sighed softly. "That is also why the family head and the Domain cultivators have placed such great hopes upon you."
To ordinary cultivators of Eternal Ancient, there was no such thing as a heaven-defying prodigy.
True prodigies were figures like the sect master of the Five Aggregates Immortal Sect and Man Yueci—people who had never stopped walking a path that defied the heavens since childhood, even creating soul cultivation arts capable of influencing Eternal Ancient for generations to come. Only such people could be called true prodigies of Eternal Ancient.
Lian Qingyue drew a deep breath and stared at his old servant in disbelief. "I was wondering why Lian Tianyi, with such formidable cultivation, lived so stifled a life in the Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory. It seems I still understand this place far too little."
"Young master is still young, so there is naturally no need to rush." Shu Chen's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "The family head is not living stifled in the Eternal Ancient Immortal Territory either. It is simply that ever since he separated from the Lineage, the family head's foundation has been rather shallow."
"This is what you call a shallow foundation?"
Lian Qingyue was so angry that he laughed. "Forget it. It seems these Domain cultivators also want their chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven."
He finally understood completely, and he also understood what sort of "ghostly things" he would have to face in the future. He just did not know how exaggerated those who had achieved One-Person Ascendancy in Eternal Ancient truly were. At this point... I should mine first.
Ten years later.
