A string of rewards poured into his inventory, and Lu Feng finally understood what a Golden Finger was.
Could anything feel better than this?
Most importantly, he had made a wish just before crafting, and the system had actually rewarded him with eight hundred thousand years of cultivation.
Combined with his previous nine hundred thousand years of cultivation, it was more than enough to break through to Quasi-Sage.
Lu Feng did not hesitate for a moment. He accepted all eight hundred thousand years of cultivation, then found a suitable spot and sat down to await his breakthrough.
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
On Kunlun Mountain, everyone saw swathes of golden light appear in the direction of Golden Ao Island.
The golden light hovered above Golden Ao Island for a long time without fading.
Then a powerful vortex appeared above Golden Ao Island and swallowed all that golden light!
Daoist Randeng could not help widening his eyes.
"That looks like the direction of Golden Ao Island!"
A hint of confusion appeared in Taiyi Zhenren's eyes.
"Isn't Golden Ao Island deserted now?"
Daoist Randeng clenched his fists.
"Golden Ao Island is indeed deserted, but don't forget-they still have a Senior Brother!"
Hearing Daoist Randeng's words, everyone present sucked in a sharp breath.
They had never seen such a celestial phenomenon before.
From the looks of it, some extraordinary treasure seemed to have emerged.
"Could their Senior Brother have caused this commotion?"
Daoist Randeng snorted coldly.
"Who else could it be?"
Across the entire Interception Sect, no one else could pull off something on such a grand scale.
Guangchengzi and the others remained silent.
The blow the Interception Sect had dealt them this time was simply too great.
When they thought of how all of this had been planned and orchestrated by the Interception Sect's Senior Brother, how could they not tremble with fear?
Now, looking toward Golden Ao Island, all they could do was sigh helplessly.
Wuzhuang Temple.
Zhen Yuanzi abruptly raised his head and looked toward the sky.
The Daoist attendants beside him, Qingfeng and Mingyue, were astonished as well.
"Master, what an enormous vortex..."
"It's terrifying!"
Qingfeng and Mingyue's eyes were filled with horror.
Merely seeing the vortex was enough to strike fear into their hearts.
If that vortex erupted, would it swallow them all?
Zhen Yuanzi lowered his head and calculated with his fingers.
Then he sighed softly.
"The Interception Sect."
"It seems something has changed this time."
Qingfeng and Mingyue looked utterly puzzled.
What did Master mean?
Why couldn't they understand him?
Zhen Yuanzi offered no further explanation, merely saying firmly,
"Do not go out for the time being."
"Getting entangled with either side would do us no good."
At their master's instructions, Qingfeng and Mingyue nodded repeatedly.
In truth, they would never have dared go out. They wanted nothing more than to hide in the temple until this storm blew over.
Chaoge City.
Di Xin naturally noticed the disturbance in the sky not far away as well.
There was a hint of wonder in his eyes, but even more confusion.
"Grand Tutor Wen, what is that?"
Grand Tutor Wen narrowed his eyes and took a look. Shock surged through his heart, but his expression remained unchanged as he said,
"Your Majesty, that direction seems to be... Golden Ao Island."
Di Xin considered this for a moment.
"Golden Ao Island-isn't that the Interception Sect's sacred ground?"
Grand Tutor Wen nodded.
"Indeed."
But he dared not say anything more.
Di Xin laughed heartily.
"To think the Interception Sect is so extraordinary!"
"What conditions would we need to meet to join the Interception Sect?"
Grand Tutor Wen froze for a moment.
"Your Majesty, you wish to join the Interception Sect?"
Di Xin nodded.
As the Human King, he naturally revered the most supreme of sects.
With Golden Ao Island causing such a commotion, surely the Senior Brother behind it could no longer sit still?
Since that was the case, why not seize the opportunity to enter this grand game?
Grand Tutor Wen fell silent.
How could joining the Interception Sect be so easy?
Besides, the Interception Sect had already disbanded.
Where could his king even go to seek a master?
Seeing Grand Tutor Wen remain silent, Di Xin more or less understood what he meant.
"You think the man on Golden Ao Island won't accept me as his disciple?"
Grand Tutor Wen really could not bring himself to jab at Di Xin's sore spot at a time like this.
But how could that man possibly agree to something like this?
After all, in all his years in the Interception Sect, he had never heard of this martial uncle taking a disciple.
Seeing his reaction, Di Xin did not press the matter.
"One day, I will become his disciple!"
With his king so determined, Grand Tutor Wen could hardly pour cold water on him now. He could only nod silently.
Meanwhile, Lu Feng finally broke through to the Quasi-Sage realm.
Because the system had granted him so much cultivation, this breakthrough took him straight to the middle stage of Quasi-Sage.
Upon entering the Quasi-Sage realm, Lu Feng finally understood the difference between a Daluo Golden Immortal and a Quasi-Sage.
No wonder so many people spent their entire lives pursuing the Great Dao.
Between a Quasi-Sage and a Daluo Golden Immortal lay an immense heavenly chasm!
His perception of heaven and earth had grown sharper.
He had also gained an entry ticket to peer into the Heavenly Secrets.
But what changes would come once the Investiture of the Gods Calamity descended?
Judging by the timing, those dear martial uncles of his had probably already begun pressuring his master to sign the Investiture of the Gods List, hadn't they?
This time, though, they were destined to be disappointed.
Lu Feng looked beyond Golden Ao Island.
Where would this final lucky one end up?
Mount Putuo.
Qiu Shou Xian gazed at the deserted valley, feeling an emptiness in his heart.
Something not far away seemed to be calling to him.
"Could this be the opportunity Senior Brother left for me?"
Qiu Shou Xian searched around, then followed the strongest pull, walking steadily forward until he reached a cliff.
Standing at the cliff's edge, he felt the pull grow even stronger.
A voice seemed to echo in his mind, urging him to jump down at once.
Yet Qiu Shou Xian hesitated.
"Do I really have to jump?"
After hesitating for a while, Qiu Shou Xian finally gritted his teeth.
Whatever happened, how could he obtain an opportunity without exploring it?
The next moment, he turned into a streak of light and plunged toward the foot of the cliff!
Feeling the wind grow stronger against his cheeks, Qiu Shou Xian silently closed his eyes.
Whatever happened today, for the opportunity Senior Brother had left him alone, he had to take this gamble.
In the end, Qiu Shou Xian even dispersed the spiritual power surrounding him, quietly awaiting the arrival of his opportunity.
If it never came, he would accept his fate today.
Just as Qiu Shou Xian's heart sank deeper and deeper, a dense cloud suddenly swept beneath him and caught him securely.
At the same time, a golden light completely enveloped Qiu Shou Xian.
In just a few moments, he was drawn into a small world.
A book appeared before his eyes.
The title on its cover was strikingly large.
Saint's Eye.
Within this small world, Qiu Shou Xian witnessed countless wondrous powers.
Until a warm current gradually flowed into his eye sockets.
