Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?
Chapter 36 Ye Luo Descends the Mountain

Having obtained "Basic Cultivation Method Explanation for the Early Stage of Qi Refining Realm," Chu Yuan finally left the Xianzui Inn under the watchful, expectant gaze of the shopkeeper.

With the explanation in hand...

An impulse seized Chu Yuan, and he wanted to cultivate!

He wanted to give self-cultivation a try.

Perhaps he could be that one in a million genius?!

With this thought in mind...

Chu Yuan immediately returned to the Wayless Sect.

After surveying the Wayless Sect...

Seeing Ye Luo still sitting on the Grand Hall Square seeking enlightenment, and Zhang Han staying in the Hall of Law Transmission reading books, he couldn't be bothered to manage so much.

He returned to his palace, closed the door, and began his secluded cultivation.

...

In the world of immortals, one does not count the days.

Chu Yuan's retreat lasted for over two months.

In these two months...

Dark currents were flowing in the outside world.

But the Wayless Sect was as calm as still water.

Ye Luo and Zhang Han were each busy with their own affairs.

Ye Luo contemplated the heavens by day, practiced the sword by night, and pondered over the key given by his respected master.

Zhang Han toiled over formations day and night, communicating with the sun, moon, stars, and all elements of nature.

And of course, Chu Yuan was cultivating mana.

...

Palace, secluded room.

Chu Yuan sat on a cushion, slowly opening his eyes.

He stretched his hand out from his sleeve and looked at it for a long time, a hint of excitement flickering in his profound eyes.

Over two months had passed!

He had succeeded in his cultivation!

Through the Basic Cultivation Technique for the Early Qi Refining Stage.

He had successfully condensed a trace of mana!

Although it was only a trace and somewhat less...

It was at least a good beginning!

With strenuous cultivation and teaching those so-called 'worthless disciples,' he was on a dual path.

The road to invincibility was right before his eyes!

Did he truly believe the saying, "From Golden Core to Invincibility," was just an empty boast?

If he diligently cultivated and within a year progressed from the early Golden Core Realm to the middle stage, and if Zhang Han, his disciple, also achieved a minor increase in his own realm...

Then he would be at the Late-stage Golden Core Realm!

A return to the Nascent Soul Realm was within reach!

Chu Yuan had already imagined the future where he stood invincible, with all beings behind him.

Thinking of such a scene...

Chu Yuan couldn't help but smile foolishly.

Considering the days, it must be about eight or nine months before the sect's test of disciple strength.

Indeed, in eight or nine months' time, he would have his breakthrough!

"Two months have passed; I wonder how those two disciples are doing."

Chu Yuan murmured to himself and released his divine sense to sweep through the sect.

In the scope of his divine sense...

Zhang Han was still reading in the Hall of Law Transmission.

This guy, could it be he has been reading for more than two months?

A pile of fake books, what's so good to see in them?

Huh.

Where's Ye Luo?

Chu Yuan's divine sense swept over the Grand Hall Square but did not replace Ye Luo.

Where had this guy gone?

Confused, Chu Yuan expanded his divine sense to cover the entire Wayless Sect to search.

Finally, he found Ye Luo.

Turns out, this fellow was near the sect's gate, shouting 'Respected Master' as if he were looking for him.

"What does this lad want from me? Could it be he's had a change of heart and seeks my guidance? Perfect, I'll extract his cultivation technique from him."

With his eyes lighting up, Chu Yuan didn't hesitate, opened the door of his palace, and headed towards Ye Luo's location.

...

At this very moment...

Inside the Wayless Sect, at the gate.

Ye Luo, holding his long sword, was walking up the mountain path.

He wore an Azure Crane Cloud Robe, with its billowing sleeves fluttering in the wind, and his black hair was pinned up with a wooden hairpin, his forehead marked with a golden insignia gleaming, his eyes sharp and indifferent.

He stood there, drifting as if celestial, yet as solitary as the snow.

Like a Celestial Sword Immortal descended to wander among the mortals.

"Where on earth could Respected Master be?"

Ye Luo murmured to himself.

After pondering over the Dao for more than two months, he felt he had reached a bottleneck and planned to descend the mountain to hone his skills.

Before leaving, he intended to bid farewell to his master.

But no matter how much he searched, he couldn't replace where his master was.

Ye Luo frowned, intending to use Dao Yun as a medium to call out his Respected Master.

Just as he was about to call out,

A figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, it was Chu Yuan.

Ye Luo was stunned.

Was his master's realm so profoundly unpredictable?

When he didn't want to use Dao Yun, no matter how he called, his master would not appear.

But when he was about to use Dao Yun as a medium, his master suddenly appeared.

Could this really be a coincidence?!

Surely no one would think it was a coincidence, right?

No way, no way.

There really couldn't be anyone who thought so.

For anyone else, it would certainly be a coincidence.

But for a peerless powerhouse like his master,

It absolutely couldn't be a coincidence.

So sensitive was his master's capture of Dao Yun!

What kind of realm must one be in to achieve such a feat?

Merely the thought of using Dao Yun was enough to alert his master.

"Respected Master!"

Ye Luo gave his master a proper salute.

"Luo Er, you… Hmm, what brings you to seek your master? Have you come to your senses and wish for my guidance?"

Chu Yuan was slightly surprised inwardly, but his expression remained serene.

How long had he not seen this Ye Luo?

Only a bit over two months, right?

How come there was such a big change.

Just over two months ago, he still had a mortal feel to him.

But now, he gave off the aura of a lofty Sword Immortal.

Gulp…

Chu Yuan swallowed his saliva secretly.

He was thinking,

Could he still defeat this disciple now?

Meanwhile, Ye Luo, hearing these words,

Couldn't help but smile.

Two months had passed, and he didn't expect that his master was still thinking of testing his Dao heart.

"Respected Master is kind; your disciple understands. I sought an audience not for guidance."

Ye Luo said as he clasped his hands together.

His tone carried a trace of mirth.

Especially when he said "guidance," the amusement was even more evident.

"Then why do you call for your master? What important matter do you have?"

Chu Yuan asked with a furrowed brow.

Hearing this, Ye Luo took out a very exquisite invitation from within his arms.

The surface of this invitation was coated with a layer of gold leaf, extremely lavish, with a vividly embroidered Phoenix on the left and a majestic Golden Dragon engraved on the right.

In the center, an ancient character "Qian" was emblazoned.

"Respected Master, this sect invited me three months ago to witness their Sect's grand competition. Now that nearly three months have passed, I plan to descend the mountain for some experience and thought it might be a good opportunity to take a look."

Ye Luo spoke in a soft voice.

Chu Yuan glanced at the invitation and couldn't help but inhale a breath of cold air.

Which sect's invitation was this?

It looked quite valuable.

If he were to take this invitation, would Ye Luo turn against him?

Cough cough, forget it.

He was a master with a sense of justice.

How could he rob his disciple of their belongings?

"Which sect is this from?"

Chu Yuan asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Reporting to Respected Master, it is from the Qiandi Dao Sect. I don't know the specifics of this sect,"

Ye Luo replied earnestly.

When Chu Yuan heard this,

He was instantly stunned.

Qiandi Dao Sect?

He knew of it.

That very sect on the Xuantian Mountain Range, the one with the scheming Great Elder.

So many people wanted to give him gifts, yet that scheming Great Elder destroyed them all, unwilling to give him any.

This grudge, he could remember for a lifetime.

Thinking of this,

Chu Yuan couldn't help but grind his teeth.

"Luo Er, if you have the chance while attending this rubbish sect's competition, make sure to create some trouble, got it?"

After all, Ye Luo seemed very strong now, and he wanted this disciple to get back at those who had backstabbed him.

Upon hearing this, Ye Luo paused, but then he nodded. He had always complied with his master's words.
