As the only Great Saint in the Han Dynasty, he had lived for countless years, and his state of mind had transcended the mortal realm. He was already numb to the emotions of the mortal world. Many things were not worth mentioning to Chen Fu. They would not affect him at all.
Even when Emperor Taixu was here, he could remain calm even if he had to face death.
However, when he saw Lu Zhou bathed in the powerful Saint's Light, his heart skipped a beat. He was filled with disbelief.
Since the ancient times, there had never been a lack of talented cultivators.
He had seen many heaven-defying and illogical geniuses who had reached the Mystic Enlightened Realm in one day, sprouted Five-leaf Realm in a day, and created 1,000 worlds in a year.
This was his first time seeing a cultivator who could form a Heavenly Soul in two hours like Lu Zhou.
In the end, he could not help but fly out from the forest in the distance and appear near the disc.
'I'd like to see who dares to put on airs in Fragrance Valley.'
Mingshi Yin looked at the spot where the powerful light appeared and saw his master who was bathed in the light.
"Uh …"
Mingshi Yin was taken aback.
A hint of reverence appeared on his face as he muttered to himself, "No wonder. I'm afraid master is the only one who can do this."
…
On the high platform.
Lu Zhou retracted the light.
The others snapped back to their senses with a longing look on their faces.
At this moment, Chen Fu said, "I'm a frog at the bottom of a well."
Lu Zhou said calmly, "A man's vision and knowledge are limited. You don't have to blame yourself."
"…"
Chen Fu asked in confusion, "Did you really condense a Heavenly Soul using the normal method?"
"Of course."
Lu Zhou produced the slip of paper and tossed it to Yu Zhenghai who was standing in the middle of the round disc. He said, "Teach this method to the others. They'll need it in the future."
Yu Zhenghai bowed and said, "Thank you, master."
Little Yuan 'er flew over from afar and landed next to Yu Zhenghai. She said, "Eldest Senior Brother, give it to me!"
Chen Fu's gaze fell on Little Yuan 'er. He remembered how she bloomed 20 Birth Charts on Autumn Water Mountain. He said, "This little girl's talent is probably second only to Old Brother Lu. I'm so envious of you!"
If he could have such a talented and obedient disciple, he would be content even if his lifespan came to an end.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at his disciples. These disciples had been carefully selected from all over the Great Han Empire, and each one of them was a dragon among men. Why did they look so unsightly now?
Chen Fu sighed in his heart. Indeed, good children belonged to other families!
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "You're wrong. My disciple's talent far surpasses mine."
"Hmm?"
"Yuan 'er."
Lu Zhou called out.
"Master."
Little Yuan 'er stepped onto the platform and bowed. "Greetings, Saint Chen."
Chen Fu beamed with joy, feeling much better. "No need to be so courteous," he said.
Lu Zhou asked, "How long have you been cultivating with me?"
Little Yuan 'er scratched her head and said, "I can't remember. It was about twenty years before the Ancient Formation. Including the Ancient Formation, it has been more than a hundred years."
Chen Fu: "…"
Twenty Fate Stones in a hundred years … If ancient formations were excluded, could he still be considered as a human?
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Among my disciples, you're the laziest. You'll have to work harder if you want to surpass your Second Senior Brother."
Chen Fu frowned and said, "There's a better one?"
"I can't say it's better. Hard work is better than playing. My second disciple is skilled in cultivation. This little girl only relies on her talent. In terms of hard work, she's the last in the Evil Sky Pavilion. "
"…"
Chen Fu coughed.
Chen Fu could no longer bear to listen to this.
He had once taught his disciples that hard work accounted for 90% of a person's success in cultivation while talent only accounted for 10%.
Unfortunately, most people would be defeated by this 10% of talent.
Little Yuan 'er said in an aggrieved tone, "I've been working hard. Master, if you agree, I'll go back and activate 21 Fate Stones. Since I've already activated all my upper limits, I might as well activate them as soon as possible."
'Activate all my upper limits?'
"…"
Chen Fu frowned slightly. With the tone of a senior, he said earnestly, "Wait, did you just say that you've activated all your upper limits?"
Little Yuan 'er nodded and said, "Yes. What's wrong?"
"Can I have a look?" Chen Fu asked.
"Uh …" Little Yuan 'er glanced at her master. Her master nodded.
"Oh," Little Yuan 'er replied before she summoned her lotus seat.
The 36 Fate Stones on the lotus seat appeared and lined up neatly. The veins of 20 Fate Stones shone brightly.
Chen Fu. "…"
Indeed, this was a talent that had activated all her upper limits!
"Old Brother Lu, your disciple …"
Chen Fu wanted to be thick-skinned and take this disciple under his wing. However, it was clearly impossible. He could only sigh heavily.
'My good disciple belongs to someone else!'
"Little girl, a talent that has activated all your upper limits is one in a million. The more that's the case, the more you mustn't be impatient. The path of cultivation is a long one. You've only cultivated for 100 years, and you already have 20 Fate Stones … If it weren't for your master, I wouldn't have believed it, "Chen Fu said.
"Oh." Little Yuan 'er nodded. "Thank you for your guidance, Saint Chen. I'll try to slow down. I'll activate my next Fate Stone in a few days."
"…???"
Lu Zhou said, "This little girl has obtained Big Yuan's approval. Her progress will only be faster in the future."
Chen Fu had almost forgotten about this. He nodded and said, "Alright. Looks like the Evil Sky Pavilion will have another Dao Saint soon."
Little Yuan 'er was puzzled. "Shouldn't she be a supreme if she's activated all her upper limits?"
Chen Fu shook his head and said, "Even if she's activated all her upper limits, she'll only be a Great Dao Saint with 36 Fate Stones. Becoming a supreme requires comprehension and fortuitous encounters. Unless you have the Great Void Seed and can ignore this, it's as difficult as ascending to the heavens for ordinary cultivators to become a supreme. "
"I have the Great Void Seed," Little Yuan 'er said.
Chen Fu was slightly taken aback.
Lu Zhou nodded. He waved his hand and said, "There's nothing for you to do here. You may leave. "
"Understood."
Little Yuan 'er left the platform.
Lu Zhou said, "Indeed, she has the Great Void Seed. That's why I've never worried about her cultivation."
Chen Fu looked at Little Yuan 'er and said with a solemn expression, "It's the right decision for you to come to Fragrance Valley. The Great Void values talents so highly. If they find out about this little girl's existence … I'm afraid they'll stop at nothing. "
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "Fragrance Valley is indeed a great place."
Chen Fu swept his gaze across the Evil Sky Pavilion disciples and said, "Who's the least talented among the Evil Sky Pavilion disciples?"
He wanted to change the topic so that he could feel more at ease.
Lu Zhou pointed at Duanmu Sheng and said, "Third disciple, Duanmu Sheng."
"What's his cultivation base like?" Chen Fu asked.
"Duanmu Sheng is the most diligent among the Evil Sky Pavilion disciples. He cultivates the Divine One Technique. Alas, his talent is lacking, and his progress is slow. On the surface, he's weak, but his overall ability … should be comparable to a real person, "Lu Zhou stated the facts objectively.
"…"
Although Chen Fu was a great saint, he would not underestimate a real person.
Moreover, a real person was at the bottom of the Evil Sky Pavilion?
He remembered the scene of Duanmu Sheng sparring with his own disciple. Realization dawned on him. He said, "He must be a Fiend."
Lu Zhou snorted and said, "The so-called Fiends are merely the prejudice humans have toward those who don't share their views."
"However, he has a large amount of decay power within him. It's destructive," Chen Fu said.
"All powers are destructive. Doesn't that mean everyone is a Fiend? "Lu Zhou asked.
When Chen Fu heard this, he nodded.
He said in agreement, "Well said, everyone is a Fiend. Perhaps … there's no such thing as a Fiend in this world. Perhaps, the Fiend is merely a perception in the minds of humans. "
