Wang Lu felt that his worldview was in danger of collapsing.
Since his debut, Wang Lu could be considered to have seen a lot of things. Although his cultivation base had just reached the King Pill Stage, his vision had already surpassed many Yuanying Stage and even Deity Stage cultivators.
The Golden King of the Western Continent was a powerhouse who had surpassed the level of Holy One and embarked on the road to godhood. Wang Lu talked and laughed wittily and wittily with him. The gatekeeper of the group of immortal tombs, the ancient Sword Demon, who opened the road to immortality for the cultivators of a region, and Wang Lu had a battle of wits and courage with him. Then there was the trip to the demon world, where he single-handedly resolved the crisis of the black tide. The legend of Wang Lu's experience had far surpassed that of the vast majority of cultivators in Nine Regions.
However, perhaps the world was really full of strange things. The sages once said that in the world, there would always be people and things that would make your worldview collapse. And now, Wang Lu finally deeply realized this truth.
Listening to the conversation of the group of cultivators from a hundred miles away, he suddenly felt that his imagination seemed to be a bit insufficient.
Lu Li? Golden generation? The Savage Land?
If it was just one of them, it might be a coincidence, but when the three of them were linked together … no matter how he thought about it, there was only one result.
The management training program of Lingjian School!
Things started from two hundred years ago.
At that time, Lingjian School was in its darkest and lowest period since its establishment. During this period, it was even repeatedly proposed by the members of the Wanxian League to downgrade its grade and expel it from the Five Uniques. The several assemblies and votes were also based on the astonishing achievements of Lingjian School during the second great war of immortals and demons two thousand years ago. However, the number of votes for the proposal was getting closer and closer.
However, as the saying goes, when things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction. Since then, Lingjian School seemed to be blessed by the Heaven and had one fortuitous encounter after another. First, several of the Great Elders broke through the bottleneck of their cultivation base and became the influential giants in the immortal cultivation world. The power of the Five Uniques of the Wanxian League was completely stabilized. At the same time, the younger generation was full of talents, and some of them were even praised by the elders of the Heavenly Sword Hall as having "unprecedented aptitude".
They were known as the golden generation of Lingjian School, and the sect had high hopes for them. Whether or not Lingjian School could rise from the weakest of the Five Uniques, the key lay in the development of the golden generation. After all, the potential of the elders was limited, and they did not have much lifespan left. Whether the Lingjian School could advance further still depended on the performance of the young people.
In order to let the golden generation display their talents, the elders of the Lingjian School could be said to have painstaking efforts. They poured all their efforts into this group of cultivators, sparing no expense to let them grow as soon as possible. After all, before this, the Lingjian School had been suppressed for too long.
However, this eagerness finally went to the extreme and produced a counterproductive effect. One hundred and fifty years ago, the lead disciple of the sect at that time achieved great success in the King Pill, and several of his Junior Brothers and Sisters had also reached peak Xudan Stage, only one step away from the King Pill. Moreover, their real strength was far better than the ordinary King Pill … At this time, the elders of the sect very radically proposed a management trainee program, hoping to stimulate the further growth of these disciples.
The so-called management trainee program was to send the golden generation to the Savage Land, expand the territory in that uncivilized land, and establish the power of the Lingjian School. Each of the disciples would assume sole responsibility in this process and become the ruler who controlled the land.
This was also the first part of the ambitious grand strategy of the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect at that time. At that time, the Lingjian School was sparsely populated, and its resources were poor. The school's wealth accumulation and sphere of influence were even inferior to some middle-rank sects. However, this problem could not be solved by relying on a few talented disciples to advance by leaps and bounds in the path of immortal cultivation. After all, no matter how high an individual's cultivation base was, it was only an individual matter and could not benefit the sect. Therefore, at that time, the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect formulated a hundred-year strategy, the first part of which was the management trainee program. The Elders planned to use twenty years to let the golden generation become the sole ruler, and then transfer most of them back from the Savage Land to the Nine Regions. After that, the Lingjian School would be backed by the developed Savage Land, which could absorb its rich resources. In front of them, under the guidance of the Elders, a group of elite disciples would expand the territory for the sect. After a hundred years, the Lingjian School would completely control the Blue River Region and have its own forces in the Nine Regions. If everything went well, they could even compete with Shengjing Sect. Even if it didn't go well, at least they could get rid of the current predicament.
The Elders of Spirit Sword Sect had poured all their efforts into this hundred-year strategy, which contained their inner depression of witnessing the decline of Spirit Sword Sect for many years, as well as their yearning for the rise of Spirit Sword Sect. However, at this time, they had to sigh with emotion that their strategy was too radical.
Putting the hope of a Five Uniques Sect on a group of young people with at most fifty to sixty years of cultivation was simply like pulling a seedling to help it grow. Even if the golden generation at that time repeatedly created miracles and constantly refreshed people's expectations of them, it didn't mean that they were omnipotent. In fact, a large part of them had already overdrawn their potential.
There was a limit to one's strength. When a sect overdrafted its disciples, the magnificent edifice would collapse with a loud bang.
Wang Lu still didn't understand the specific process, but he at least knew that the golden generation of the Lingjian School was nearly wiped out in the management trainee program. Hundreds of talented disciples fell, and among the cultivators of the same generation, there were only ten Heavenly Sword Hall Elders left. One of them had been living in seclusion and had never shown up until now.
What was even more tragic was that, although his Masters had never mentioned it, there was a very obvious phenomenon: Other sects, from Shengjing Sect to some low-rank sects, all had their own Elders. Only Lingjian School didn't. Feng Yin Daoist Master, who had only cultivated for more than two hundred years, was the most senior person in the sect.
In other words, the fall of the golden generation was accompanied by the Elders of Spirit Sword Sect.
More than one hundred years ago, it was still a mystery what kind of tragic disaster the Spirit Sword Sect encountered during their pioneering operation in the Savage Land. Over the years, whether it was from the inside of the sect or with the help of the external forces of the Wanxian League, Wang Lu had found nothing. Later on, he lost interest in continuing to explore. After all, it was a tragedy that the Elders of the sect did not want to mention, so why would he bother to open that scar?
Unexpectedly … Now that he had given up exploring the secret, he appeared in front of him. The group of young cultivators who were walking hundreds of miles away sounded like the golden generation of the Lingjian School!
In other words, the failure of the transfer of Spirit Sword Heavenly Talisman actually sent him to more than one hundred years ago? Did he complete the time travel?
No … This was a big deal, so he had to seriously confirm it. After all, the more absurd the speculation, the more cautious it was. Thereupon, Wang Lu closed his breath and concentrated his mind. He then used his hearing ability to carefully listen to the conversation five miles away.

"In short, Lu Li, since you've come to the Savage Land, you must forge ahead and not waste your talent."
"Big Brother, you're overflowing with talent and omnipotent, but I'm just a mortal."
"Hahaha, Junior Brother Lu Li, you're naughty again. We're both members of the first echelon of this generation, so there's no qualitative difference in the aptitude and perception between us. How could there be a genius and a mortal? What you lack are nothing more than two things. First, focus. You have too many distractions. You have to learn talismans, you have to learn array formations, you have to learn blacksmithing, you have to learn everything that the elders of the sect can teach you. Even if your perception is amazing, if you're distracted, your cultivation speed naturally can't catch up with mine. Second, you don't have enough confidence. Because you have too many distractions, your cultivation speed is lacking compared to other Junior Brothers and Sisters. You feel ashamed of your inferiority, so you even give up treatment and begin to be more obsessed with the cultivation of miscellaneous things, in order to find the balance. But the more you do this, the slower your cultivation on the right path is, until today … "
"Damn, Big Brother, please spare me!? I'm just being polite to you, but you actually talk incessantly and even expose my sore spot! Is there a Senior Brother like you!? "
"Hey? Do you mind? It should be okay, your crush Junior Sister Mu Ying is in the other team, so she can't hear these words. "
"Damn, Lu Li, you actually have a crush on Mu Ying?! Big news! "
"Big Brother!!"
"Ah? You can't even tell me about your crush? But that day, I saw you and Yi Yun singing loudly after getting drunk. You said everything, so I thought you didn't care about it anymore. "
"Hey, Lu Li, you actually drank and sang with Senior Sister Yi Yun!?"
"Big Brother!!"
"… Okay, I won't say anything. Don't be angry, I just want to encourage you. It's rare for us to be in the same team, and for the next ten years, we will be together day and night. We will overcome the thorns and thorns together in this barren land, so you must be motivated! "
"… Big Brother, don't worry, I am very motivated now, and I can't wait to reach the Nascent Soul Realm!"
"Oh? Your Xudan foundation is still not stable … Although it is good to be motivated, why are you so anxious to reach the Nascent Soul Realm? "
"Because only when I reach the Nascent Soul Realm can I beat you, King Pill bitch!"
"… Junior Brother, you are being naughty again. With how many distractions you have, even if you reach the Nascent Soul Realm, you still can't beat me …"
"Ah, ah, ah, I am going to kill you now!"
—
"Yes, you are right, they should be people from Lingjian School."
Five miles away, Wang Lu gently nodded, confirming his guess.
Although he didn't know the other seven people in this group of eight except for Lu Li, this style of conversation should be unique to Lingjian School.
Moreover, the Elder Lu Li that Wang Lu was familiar with was an expert at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, but at this time, Elder Lu Li was only at the Xudan Realm. If it wasn't for the old man's recent excessive indulgence, which caused his cultivation to drop sharply, it could only be attributed to time traveling back to the past.
"Ha, the result is really time traveling, and it is more than a hundred years at once … But it is a pity that I didn't get the bonus plug-in for time traveling."
Wang Lu sighed and then prepared to get up and leave.
Martial Uncle Lu Li and the others were moving very fast, and their goal was in the direction where he was standing. But Wang Lu didn't intend to meet them so early. This time, time traveling was too bizarre, and the principle was completely unexplainable. Wang Lu didn't intend to make any mistakes because of the disordered time and space.
In the stories of time traveling that he knew, there was no lack of time travelers who came into contact with their predecessors, and the predecessors suddenly disappeared. As a result, history was greatly changed, and red demons wreaked havoc in the world.
If this caused Elder Lu Li to disappear because of this reason, he would be guilty.
However, just as Wang Lu stood up, he suddenly heard a curious voice in his ears.
"Excuse me, what did you mean by time traveling just now?"
Turning around, he saw a handsome young cultivator wearing a red and white robe that was seventy to eighty percent similar to his, standing there with a curious look on his face.
Wang Lu was startled, because he had just heard this voice.
It was the current chief disciple of Lingjian School, who was supposed to be five miles away!
This encounter really came a little too fast.
