My Informative Cultivation Life

Xuan Zhong and Yang Ji arrived at the Realm of Extreme Void and went straight to the Myriad Tribulation Palace to find Elder Myriad Tribulation.

It was the following day that the ancestor of Xian Ding Sect once again summoned Yang Ji.

Inside the Xuan Ding Secret Realm, the five ancestors sitting at the top all had faint smiles on their faces, clearly in good spirits.

"Xiao Yang, I have good news for you. That old ghost from the Myriad Tribulation has unexpectedly changed his nature and is actually willing to trade the Time Stone with our sect," the refined elder said with a smile. With a flick of his hand, he produced a Time Stone about the size of half a human head. It sparkled like a diamond, shining brilliantly and containing a powerful Time Force.

Yang Ji had known all this, but upon seeing the scene, he couldn't help but feel happy and promptly asked, "Ancestor, how many Flowers of Creation did Elder Myriad Tribulation exchange for it?"

"Ten Flowers of Creation!" the refined elder replied.

"This Time Stone is quite large; ten flowers are a fair price. It's just puzzling why the old ghost suddenly became so agreeable, not taking any advantage," the square-faced elder to the left said, looking puzzled.

"There's fear that Elder Myriad Tribulation has other intentions, but with the Time Stone in hand, all is well," the dignified elder on the right stated.

"No matter what he is plotting, at the moment, it seems we have not suffered any loss! Xiao Yang, for you!" The refined elder flicked his fingers and tossed the Time Stone, which landed in Yang Ji's hands.

"Thank you, ancestor! I will cultivate diligently and live up to the sect's high hopes!" Yang Ji bowed deeply in gratitude.

"Good!" The refined elder nodded with a smile. "For a genius disciple like you, there's not much we can guide you on. If you need anything in your daily practice, feel free to come to the Xuan Ding Secret Realm to find us."

"Thank you for the generous love of my ancestor!" Yang Ji expressed his gratitude.

"Well, if there's nothing else, you can go," the refined elder said lightly with a smile.

Yang Ji bowed again and slowly exited the Xuan Ding Secret Realm.

Xuan Zhong, who had been waiting outside, took his hand and they flew directly toward the Myriad Tribulation Palace.

All of this was observed by the five ancestors in the Xuan Ding Secret Realm.

"Do you think this sudden change of heart from Elder Myriad Tribulation could be related to Xuan Zhong?" one ancestor whispered.

"It must be so," the refined elder watched the departing pair in the Mysterious Mirror and remarked, "Xuan Zhong is no ordinary man; endowed with exceptional talent and unparalleled insight, he is the prime disciple. His master is even more impressive, being a Supreme Immortal King of the Celestial Court who has forged his own path.

Such individuals are extremely powerful, and as his disciple, how prestigious is Xuan Zhong? Even if Elder Myriad Tribulation is the cruel and cold-hearted Star Brigand King, facing Xuan Zhong, he probably wouldn't dare to be too arrogant."

"I guess that's the case!" The square-faced elder nodded slightly.

"This Wuji Dao Sect indeed has great fortune. The Red Dust Immortal only has Elder Wuji as a member, yet his disciples are a gathering of the influential and extraordinary.

In just tens of thousands of years, the sect produced five prime disciples: Sect Master Wuji Zi, disciple of the Immortal King Xuan Zhong, the Detached One Tian Li, the reincarnation of Lord of Fortune Hao Yun, and our sect's disciple Yang Ji. How defiant of heaven!

What deserves and capabilities does the Wuji Dao Sect have to gather such luck?" the dignified elder spoke with envy and dissatisfaction.

"Yes, the Wuji Dao Sect seems inconspicuous, but its fortune has peaked tremendously. I've heard from the influential figures of the Pill Realm that the Wuji Immortal King who passed down the cultivation techniques was just a powerhouse who had not forged his own path. Yet, his sect could accumulate such fortune. Why is that?

Is the Wuji Immortal King extraordinary, or are these disciples extraordinary?" another ancestor wondered.

"It's feared that when things reach an extreme, they can only move in the opposite direction. The Wuji Immortal King and his founded Wuji Dao Sect may not endure such great fortune," the square-faced elder murmured thoughtfully.

"The Heavenly Demons have long been watching the Taichu World, and the future is bound to be turbulent. Even if the Taichu World survives, it's doubtful that the Wuji Dao Sect can continue to exist. It may end up like those once-great sects that vanished in the endless ages, buried under the ruins, their brilliance momentary, their burial everlasting," the dignified elder said.

"Who can be clear about the future!" the refined elder shook his head.

Myriad Tribulation Palace.

"Haha, Young Yang, have you received the Time Stone?" Elder Myriad Tribulation laughed heartily.

"I have received it, thanks to you, Senior!" Yang Ji bowed his thanks.

"No need for thanks, no need for that, we are all our own people!" Elder Myriad Tribulation said, radiating smiles and getting chummy.

Xuan Zhong gave him a glance and asked, "My junior fellow promised to enter the Life and Death Realm for you, is there any benefit in it for him?"

"Benefit?" Elder Myriad Tribulation was stunned for a moment, inwardly cursing Xuan Zhong. Hadn't all of this been agreed upon beforehand? What more benefit did he want?

Yet he did not voice these thoughts, instead wearing a smiling face as he said, "Of course, there are benefits. The Life and Death Realm is believed to be a fragment of an Inner World of a Quasi-Imperial Monarch who had comprehended the Law of Life and Death. It contains many Life and Death Dao Stones. If found, they can be directly refined to gain Dao Principles. This is indeed a great benefit."

"Are the Life and Death Dao Stones that easy to find? With so many years gone by, your six great powers must have scoured them all. Offer something more practical!" Xuan Zhong huffed.

"This..." Elder Myriad Tribulation hesitated, then said, "What about adding a gourd of Pure Yang Water to the deal?"

"No, three gourds!" Xuan Zhong extended three fingers, "If my junior fellow brings good fortune to you, letting you, old ghost, achieve the first place, the Pure Yang Water you gain would be a million-fold more than what you lose. Weighing the pros and cons, you should be able to calculate better than I."
