That's what I was thinking.

Lin Tian waved his hand dismissively and said.

"Fine."

"Just leave the things there; you can take the Great Wall model."

Seeing that Lin Tian agreed.

Tongtian immediately lit up with joy.

He first bowed to Lin Tian and thanked him.

Then he quickly put away the two rather large Great Wall models.

In an instant, there was nothing in front of him.

Lin Tian felt a secret sense of satisfaction about this.

The Great Wall model is completely useless.

Even if it comes without any effort.

Useless things, whether placed in the system space or in the room, are always an eyesore.

Lin Tian had originally hoped to watch for a while.

But it turned out that this thing just took up empty space.

However, even so, Lin Tian never considered taking the model back into the System Space.

He casually knocked him out of the room.

The reason for this was that I actually intended to give the item away.

Otherwise, Lin Tian wouldn't have thrown this thing into the courtyard.

He deliberately let Fellow Gongming see it.

Lin Tian hadn't expected that they valued these two models so much.

They even went back to ask their elders to exchange it, and they used so many things to do so.

This truly left Lin Tian somewhat bewildered.

But thinking about it, it's understandable since they are model enthusiasts.

Things have changed now.

I reckon this uncle is about to get to the bottom of things.

Lin Tian had figured it out by now.

If the other party speaks, Lin Tian will respond as best he can.

If the other party doesn't speak, then Lin Tian has guessed wrong, which saves him trouble.

Just as Lin Tian was thinking this to himself.

A voice that seemed to Tongtian also followed.

"Fellow Daoist, I have some questions. I wonder if you could answer them for me?"

A conflicted expression crossed his somewhat dignified face.

It was as if he had thought things through carefully and finally made a decision.

'Really...'

Lin Tian's heart stirred. He looked at Tongtian, remaining calm and composed, and said...

"What questions do you have, my friend? Please feel free to ask."

Tongtian was a little nervous, fearing that Lin Tian would not be willing to answer.

To my surprise, Lin Tian agreed so quickly.

This surprised Tongtian quite a bit.

'Did this senior already know why I've come?'

'Are you just waiting for me to ask?'

Thinking of this...

Tongtian suddenly felt that it was possible.

He quickly suppressed his surprise.

He asked.

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask what path you cultivate?"

"As soon as I entered your courtyard, I sensed that it was quite mysterious."

"And your aura is quite different from that of other cultivators I have ever seen."

"Therefore, I am very curious, and I wonder if you could answer my question."

"If there are any secrets, you don't need to reveal them all, fellow Daoist."

As Tongtian finished speaking.

Lin Tian has not yet responded.

Zhao Gongming, the Three Xiaos, and Wen Zhong, who were sitting cross-legged to one side, couldn't help but be startled.

Their ears twitched.

It seems that Tongtian is also very interested in what he asked!

Aside from Wen Zhong, the Three Xiaos and Zhao Gongming are already second-generation disciples with profound cultivation within the Mystic Gate.

Despite his extraordinary knowledge, he still couldn't understand Senior Lin Tian.

Lin Tian's courtyard was filled with spiritual energy, followed the laws of nature, and was astonishingly furnished, even comparable to Human Dao!

His own cultivation level was even more unfathomable.

In front of their seniors, they were like ants.

This is remarkably similar to the state of mind one has when facing Sage.

It's certain.

Senior Lin Tian must be a reclusive powerhouse comparable to Sage!

The problem is that ever since Dao Ancestor Hongjun became the first Sage in the world...

By distributing the holy positions, the Sage in the world was completely divided up.

From then on, in the Primordial World, there were only the Three Pure Ones, the Earth Dao Empress Pingxin, the Empress Nuwa, the Two Sages of the West, and the eight Sages of the Dao Ancestor.

The other powerful individuals will never attain the rank of saint.

Unable to obtain Primordial Violet Qi.

Therefore, it's impossible to become a saint!

Naturally, they cannot possess strength comparable to that of Sage!

Otherwise, the world would be in chaos.

Senior Lin Tian possesses such immense power, even surpassing that of Sage.

However, he did not attain sainthood, and the entire Primordial World was unaware of his existence.

Even his master was seeing him for the first time!

How did that senior acquire such immense power?

At first, they didn't understand, couldn't figure it out, and didn't even dare to ask.

In front of Senior Lin Tian, they dared not utter a sound and spoke cautiously.

They were terrified of offending this powerful figure, who was practically Sage.

Even if you wanted to ask, their identities wouldn't be appropriate.

Master must have realized this by now.

They can even sense auras that others cannot.

Therefore, asking around would be more appropriate.

Moreover, once he opened his mouth, he went straight to the crux of the problem.

Yes.

Senior Lin Tian is so powerful, what kind of cultivation path does he cultivate?!

Regardless of the path it is, it is definitely not the mainstream cultivation path in the Primordial World!

Ordinary Sage must Severing the Three Corpses and obtain the Primordial Violet Qi to become saints.

Senior Lin Tian must have skipped this path entirely.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be so powerful!

Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos thought to themselves.

A look of excitement and anticipation flashed in each of their eyes.

The truth is about to be revealed!

After hearing Tongtian's question...

Lin Tian was taken aback when he saw the other person's solemn expression.

A strange feeling crept into my heart.

'I thought they were asking a more serious question, but it was just this?'

'It's not a big deal; all my cultivation techniques are provided by the system.'

'You can cultivate simply by lying down, and the speed at which your cultivation level increases is incredibly fast—of course, I can't tell them that.'

Even if I told them, they might not believe me...

Thinking of this...

Lin Tian thought for a moment, then explained to them.

"Fellow Daoist, to be honest, the Dao I cultivate is somewhat different from yours."

"This is my own path, and only I can cultivate it."

"My current achievements are due to following my own path."

"The reason the courtyard is like this is because of my existence!"

Hearing Lin Tian's response.

Tongtian's eyes suddenly snapped open.

An excited look shone through his eyes!

Even his body stiffened.

My heart was filled with a surge of ecstatic joy.

'Really!'

'Just as I thought!'

'The events recorded in the Great Dao Diary are indeed correct!'

There are three thousand Great Dao, all of which can be followed! Choose one, and you too can reach the highest peak!

'The path of Severing the Three Corpses and circulating the Primordial Violet Qi is the Dao of Hongjun.'

'Why should all living beings in the Primordial World follow his old path and be subject to his rule!'

'Since there are powerful individuals who can cultivate their own path, and whose aura is even stronger than mine, wouldn't they also possess strength comparable to Sage!'

'Then even if I abdicate my sainthood and cultivate my own path, I will not lose the ability to uphold the Jie Interception Sect!'

Tongtian was thinking this to himself.

Zhao Gongming and the others standing nearby also stared wide-eyed.

It's like listening to a fairy tale!

One's own path?

In the Primordial World, anything is possible!

It's unbelievable that someone possesses their own path that allows them to achieve such immense power!

How did you do that!?

What, then, is one's own path?!

Can we also follow in the footsteps of Senior Lin Tian?

In this way...

Even without the Primordial Violet Qi, one can still cultivate to a level comparable to Sage!?

Especially Zhao Gongming, who is now Quasi-Saint level expert.

The path to sainthood isn't that far off!

Thinking about this...

Zhao Gongming's eyes also flashed with barely suppressed excitement!

Just then.

A voice that seemed to Tongtian followed.

It interrupted their thoughts.

"May I ask, fellow Daoist, is it possible for this humble Daoist to follow his own path and thereby improve his cultivation? I wonder if you could offer some guidance..."

Tongtian's question was exactly what Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos were thinking.

They all pricked up their ears and listened attentively.

Opposite.

Upon hearing his question, Lin Tian's heart skipped a beat, seemingly not expecting the other party to speak in such a way.

Go your own way?

Gongming Ming's uncle has quite the vision!

I also want to forge my own path.

They were already more prescient than many of the original inhabitants of the Primordial World lands.

Ordinary living beings would certainly not believe him if they heard what he said.

As everyone knows, there is only one path to sainthood: obtaining the Primordial Violet Qi!

Tell others that other paths can also lead to Sage.

That's definitely a pipe dream.

I never expected that Gongming's uncle would understand and believe it.

It's not exactly foolish!

The path to Sage is now blocked, and ordinary people cannot attain sainthood.

But it was all that bastard Hongjun's dirty tricks.

There is no more Primordial Violet Qi!

Becoming a saint is simply impossible!

The only way is to seek the Three Thousand Great Dao and break through the Heavenly Dao's blockade.

But how difficult is that?

Thinking about this...

Lin Tian sighed helplessly before heading towards the Heavenly Dao.

"Fellow Daoist, my Dao is rather unique and difficult to describe."

What Lin Tian said was true.

After all, Lin Tian's path is one of "laziness".

This kind of principle definitely cannot be spoken of.

Lin Tian thought for a moment, then began to explain.

"However, since you intend to cultivate your own path, once you have this thought, you can naturally follow the natural course of things."

"This path is entirely beneficial, with no drawbacks; after all, it's your own path, and you're in charge."

Hearing Lin Tian's explanation...

Tongtian was overjoyed.

Lin Tian's words struck a chord with Tongtian.

His ultimate goal is to be in charge of his own life!

He did not want his fate to be controlled by the Heavenly Dao, nor did he want to be instructed by Hongjun.

He wants to surpass Hongjun and forge his own path!

But which path should I take?

Having confirmed the possibility of following his own path, Tongtian, after the initial excitement, still didn't know what his path was.

Thinking about this...

Tongtian, shameless and gritting his teeth, bowed to Lin Tian again.

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask a question? How does one determine one's own Dao?"

"How did you determine that, fellow Daoist?"

Hearing his question, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

How to determine this?

Does being too lazy count as being lazy?

Is it because I'm too lazy that I can cultivate while lying down?

Thinking about this...

Lin Tian quickly suppressed the strange thought in his mind.

This question isn't difficult to answer; I just said it casually.

"Of course, you should specialize in whatever you are good at!"

"After all, everything and everything can be considered a path."

"Some people enjoy chopping wood every day; they believe that chopping wood can help them cultivate their own path."

"Some people fish, and they can even fish through all the heavens and myriad realms."

"Some people keep frogs as pets, and the frogs can even go on trips, bringing back something good every time they go."

Upon hearing Lin Tian's words, Tongtian and the others were like, "???"

What are the seniors saying?

Travel Frog?

Fishing across countless worlds?

Woodcutting Great Dao?

They were all dumbfounded.

Lin Tian was still talking to himself.

"Some people... cough cough cough."

As Lin Tian spoke, he noticed that the other person looked completely bewildered.

Realizing he had said too much, he abruptly stopped and concluded.

In short, choose the path that suits your skills and interests.

Upon hearing this...

Tongtian suppressed his suspicions, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

What does this humble Daoist priest like?

I like swords.

"Practicing swordsmanship is the thing I've loved most since birth, and it's also the thing I'm most persistent and willing to do."

When Tongtian spoke of swords, a glint of starlight flashed in his eyes.

He seemed extremely confident about it.

He also exuded a unique, murderous aura associated with swords.

Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos standing to the side sensed something.

They all looked at Tongtian with admiration.

Indeed, Master Tongtian's understanding of the sword is unparalleled in the entire Primordial World.

The Master's most precious treasure for attaining enlightenment is the Qingping Sword, which is a symbol of one of the Three Pure Ones.

Afterwards, the Dao Ancestor gave the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords and the array diagram to his master.

The master, who wielded the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, was invincible; only the Four Saints could defeat him!

This immense power further enhanced Master's understanding of the Sword Dao.

Now that Master has spoken in this manner;

Could it be that Master intends to master the Great Dao of the Sword?

Just as they were thinking this...

Lin Tian's next words, however, took them by surprise!
