Heavenly Realm, Divine Firmament Immortal Domain.
Sun Moon County, Astral Sect, Alkaid Peak.
Xie Tianfeng, Lin Ming, Zuo Zhuxuan, and Shangguan Qian were gathered together, chatting casually.
Zuo Zhuxuan said, "It's been more than two thousand years since we joined Astral Sect."
"Yes."
Shangguan Qian said, "In these two thousand years, other than Wang Yu, the four of us haven't had any breakthroughs."
"When Wang Yu joined the sect, his cultivation was lower than ours. It's normal for him to have a breakthrough."
Xie Tianfeng pursed his lips. When Wang Yu was mentioned, he seemed to be disdainful.
After two thousand years, Xie Tianfeng and Lin Ming were still Rank Seven Earth Immortals.
Zuo Zhuxuan and Shangguan Qian were still Rank Eight Earth Immortals.
The four of them didn't care about this situation.
In the Upper Realm, it would be harder and harder to advance after reaching their level. The time it would take was also extremely long, easily tens of thousands of years.
Therefore, a thousand years ago, when the four of them heard that the drunkard called Mo Ling had advanced three levels in a thousand and five hundred years, they were so shocked!
Xie Tianfeng, Lin Ming, and Zuo Zhuxuan had sent cultivators to keep an eye on Su Zimo!
However, the three of them didn't gain anything.
The Zuo family even lost a Rank Six Earth Immortal.
Lin Ming said, "Wang Yu brought the Wang family back to the family a few hundred years ago. When do the three of you plan to return?"
"More than two thousand years. It's about time."
Xie Tianfeng muttered, "I think the Astral Sect's secret technique inheritance is nothing more than an illusory legend. Who knows how many cultivators have come to this place over the years, but they've never seen the slightest trace of it."
In fact, the descendants of the five families had come to Astral Sect to train for at most two thousand years.
Now, Xie Tianfeng and the other three had stayed here for another five hundred years!
However, the four of them had different reasons for staying.
"I think it's useless to continue staying here. The Astral Sect's inheritance might be a scam. It's better to return to the family as soon as possible."
Lin Ming turned to Shangguan Qian and asked, "What do you think, Sister Shangguan?"
Shangguan Qian frowned slightly, hesitating.
To be honest, she had been here for so long that she was running out of patience.
She was only waiting for the drunkard to come out of seclusion out of curiosity.
However, after such a long time had passed, no matter how big his curiosity was, it was almost exhausted.
"Alright."
Shangguan Qian nodded and said, "Get ready. We'll go back in a few days."
"We're going the same way!"
Xie Tianfeng also laughed. Then, he squinted at Zuo Zhuxuan and asked, "Aren't you going to tell them to leave together?"
"I still want to cultivate here for a while. You guys can leave first."
Zuo Zhuxuan smiled.
This sentence was somewhat unexpected.
Xie Tianfeng and Lin Ming both thought that Zuo Zhuxuan had stayed in the Astral Sect for Shangguan Qian.
Now that Shangguan Qian was ready to leave, Zuo Zhuxuan actually wanted to continue wasting his time in the Stellaris Sect. This was really strange.
Xie Tianfeng cupped his fists and said sarcastically, "Then I'll have to congratulate Daoist Zuo in advance for obtaining that secret inheritance from the Astral Sect."
"Sure."
Zuo Zhuxuan smiled faintly.
Boom!
Suddenly!
A loud sound came from a cave abode on the main peak of the Alkaid Peak.
The four of them looked over and saw that the stone door of a cave abode was shattered by a huge force from inside. Countless gravel burst out and smoke billowed, spreading out.
When Zuo Zhuxuan saw this cave abode, his eyes flashed.
Lin Ming frowned slightly and suddenly said, "This is the cave abode of that drunkard!"
"This person is really patient. After a thousand years of seclusion, he's finally out."
Xie Tianfeng sneered and said, "Come, let's go over and see if this person has broken through after a thousand years of seclusion."
Shangguan Qian and the other three soared into the air. In the blink of an eye, they landed in front of the cave abode and looked over.
In the billowing smoke, a tall figure walked out slowly. It was the drunkard.
However, this drunkard did not have the drunken and crazy state he had when they first met. Instead, his face was abnormally ugly, without a trace of blood.
This drunkard's eyes were looking forward. His gaze was somewhat empty, as if he did not see the existence of Shangguan Qian and the other three at all.
The four of them could see that there was something wrong with this drunkard's condition!
The four of them activated their Divine Senses and scanned the drunkard's body. Their expressions changed slightly.
Stage Five Earth Immortal!
This drunkard had broken through again after his seclusion!
Shangguan Qian and the other three were the geniuses of their respective families. Although their cultivation had improved over the past two thousand years, they had not reached the point of breaking through.
However, this drunkard had risen from Stage One Earth Immortal to Stage Five Earth Immortal!
Even the top princes of the Three Major Immortal Kingdoms and the geniuses of the various sects could not achieve such a cultivation speed!
"Something's not right!"
Zuo Zhuxuan suddenly frowned and muttered in confusion, "Stage Six Earth Immortal?"
The other three also noticed the abnormality.
The drunkard's cultivation level was not stable. One moment, he was at the peak of Stage Five Earth Immortal, and the next, he was at Stage Six Earth Immortal.
The drunkard's aura was also fluctuating constantly.
The drunkard did not seem to feel the abnormality in his body and continued walking forward.
Suddenly!
The drunkard's footsteps stopped and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked miserable.
The drunkard's cultivation level gradually stabilized at the peak of Stage Five Earth Immortal.
"Hahahaha!"
Xie Tianfeng suddenly threw his head back and laughed. "I didn't expect you to go astray and fail your breakthrough!"
"This is the result of advancing too quickly and having an unstable foundation!"
Lin Ming also sneered. "If you don't have the talent, don't think you can achieve it overnight. Your achievements in this life will be limited to this. "
Shangguan Qian shook her head slightly and sighed in her heart.
The drunkard's Daoist Heart seemed to have a problem with this breakthrough. It would be difficult for him to advance his cultivation in the future.
However, Shangguan Qian did not understand.
Could it be as Lin Ming said? That the drunkard's cultivation speed was too fast and his foundation was unstable? That was why he went astray and failed his breakthrough?
Or was it because of some other reason?
The drunkard walked past the four of them and came to a bluestone at the edge of the cliff. He sat on it and looked into the distance in a daze.
Shangguan Qian looked into the drunkard's eyes.
There was no drunkenness in the drunkard's eyes at all.
Instead, Shangguan Qian could vaguely see a kind of sorrow that was difficult to resolve in his eyes. It was very moving.
For some reason, Shangguan Qian looked at the drunkard and felt her heart ache.
Zuo Zhuxuan did not say anything, but a cold smile appeared on his face.
He did not care if the drunkard went astray or had his Daoist Heart damaged.
What he was after was the treasure on the drunkard's body!
Even if the drunkard failed his breakthrough, it had helped him advance four levels in more than 2,000 years.
He was determined to get such a treasure!
