"So that's how it is. It seems I was overthinking things. I hope Grandmaster Hui Yuan won't take offense."
When Alienated saw Linley's actions, he let out a sigh of relief, and his expression softened. As for Member, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, he didn't move either, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
"Oh, young benefactor shouldn't be like this. This old monk spoke too much. It's just that when I saw young benefactor, I didn't know why I felt a sense of deja vu. That's why I acted like this. It's this old monk's fault."
Hearing Hui Yuan's words, Lin Ray didn't say anything else. Instead, he smiled and sat down.
"That's right, young benefactor, I heard from my disciple that you came here to ask for directions. May I know where young benefactor wants to go?"
"Oh, I want to go to the east." Hearing the old monk's question, Lin Ray hurriedly told him where he wanted to go. He said with an excited expression, "I don't know how I got here, but I have something very important to do. I don't know how long it will take to get to the east."
"Oh … You don't know how you got here, but you want to go to the east? That's strange." After hearing Lin Ray's words, Hui Yuan fell silent.
Seeing the old monk fall silent, Lin Ray anxiously asked, "What is it, Grandmaster? Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just curious. However, if you want to go from the Putuo Sect to the east, it will take at least two or three months. Even if you go at the fastest speed without stopping, it will still take two months."
"What? Two months?" Hearing Grandmaster Hui Yuan's words, Linley was in complete despair. Only one or two months were left until the one year agreement was up. What was he to do?
"No, Grandmaster, is there a faster way to get to the east? I really do have something urgent. If I can't get to the east within a month, then I …"
At this point, Lin Ray didn't continue. However, when Hui Yuan saw Lin Ray's awkward expression, he didn't continue asking.
"There is still a way, but it comes with a price. If you want to reach the east in a month, then you have to go through the transmission formation. If that's the case, then it will be difficult for the young benefactor during this month. Not only will the young benefactor feel uncomfortable, but the most important thing is that the consumption of spirit stones is huge. I'm afraid that the young benefactor won't be able to withstand it."
Lin Ray, who was already in despair, regained his usual vigor when he heard Hui Yuan's next sentence.
"Oh, so that's what Grandmaster Hui Yuan is worried about. If that's the case, then there's no need for Grandmaster to worry. Grandmaster just needs to tell me the specific location of the Teleportation Array.
You don't need to worry about anything else. "Hearing Lin Ray's words, Hui Yuan was shocked. One had to know that using the Teleportation Array for a month would cost a huge amount of spirit stones. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to afford it. Even a sect's young master wouldn't be able to make such a promise.
"Oh … Alright, since Young Master has such wealth, then this old monk won't say anything else. In a moment, this old monk will give the map of the Teleportation Array to the east to the young benefactor. In the following days, take a good look at my sect. Once this old monk is done with the map, I'll have Estrangement send it over."
"Okay." Hearing Grandmaster Hui Yuan's words, Lin Ray quickly replied, "I understand. Thank you, Grandmaster."
"En, good, then that's that! From now on, you'll have to show Benefactor Lin around properly. "
After speaking, Estrangement, who had been standing on the side without saying anything, walked over to Lin Ray.
"Benefactor Lin, let's go!" Saying that, Estrangement took the lead to leave. At this moment, Lin Ray stood in place and cupped his hands towards Hui Yuan.
"Grandmaster, I have a presumptuous request, but I don't know if I should say it. If there's anything wrong with what I'm about to say, I hope Grandmaster Hui Yuan will forgive me."
Hearing Linley's words, Alienation, who had already reached the door, turned his head and stared at Linley with a puzzled look on his face.
"Oh." Not only was Estrangement confused, even Hui Yuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, was confused.
"Benefactor Lin, if you have something to say, just say it! If this old monk can do it, he will do his best. "
Hearing Hui Yuan's words, Lin Ray relaxed. He tidied up his clothes and respectfully bowed.
"After coming to the Putuo Sect, I saw that Estrangement was a rare talent for cultivation. Moreover, he has a metal and wood attribute spirit root. Why is he only at the peak of the Enlightened Realm? I don't know …"
At this point, Lin Ray didn't say anything else. However, Estrangement was confused.
"This, Benefactor Lin, how did you see that? And you can even see that Estrangement has a metal and wood attribute spirit root. This …"
He thought Lin Ray was going to say something, but when he heard Lin Ray's words, his eyes widened. His gaze was filled with disbelief.
"Oh, this … uh … This is a spell I learned. It's just that it doesn't always work. After coming to the Putuo Sect, I casually tried it and it worked. Estrangement just happened to be next to me, so …"
"Oh …" Hearing Lin Ray's words, Hui Yuan nodded as if he understood.
"I don't know what Almsgiver Lin is trying to say. Even if my disciple is only at the peak of the Enlightened Realm, Almsgiver Lin, this old monk has seen that the situation in the sect is not very optimistic. Although he has talent for cultivation, the sect does not provide him with cultivation resources. Speaking of which, this old monk is very ashamed."
The guilt in Hui Yuan's eyes was self-evident. Looking at Estrangement standing at the door, Hui Yuan sighed.
"Master, you don't have to say that. If you didn't take me in, I wouldn't be here right now. Even if I have to be a cripple for the rest of my life, it doesn't matter."
Looking at his master's appearance, Alienation couldn't help but tear up. He hurriedly ran to Hui Yuan's side and couldn't control his emotions as he burst into tears. Seeing this scene, Linley also felt emotional. However, the matter of accepting a disciple couldn't be delayed.
"Then Grandmaster Hui Yuan, have you ever thought that with Estrangement's talent, it is impossible for him to be ordinary forever? If he is a true dragon, he will be a true dragon. He cannot stay in a place without a platform for too long. Think about it, you have taken Estrangement in since he was young. It can be said that you have already treated Estrangement as your own son. Do you want to see the son you raised buried without any achievements?"
Hearing Lin Ray's words, Hui Yuan's eyes widened. The shock in his eyes clearly showed that he didn't expect Lin Ray to say such a thing.
"Yes, Benefactor Lin is correct. In these years, I have practically treated Estrangement as my own son. In fact, I also want Estrangement to be able to make a name for himself. However, as you can see, the Putuo Sect only has this condition. If we don't have enough resources, how can we make a name for ourselves?"
Hearing Hui Yuan's words, Lin Ray's heart moved. He had a certain degree of confidence in taking Estrangement as a disciple.
"In that case, Grandmaster Hui Yuan, have you ever thought about letting Estrangement go out and find a better master for us to learn from? This way, he can make a name for himself and help the Putuo Sect grow stronger. In the future, he can fight for a seat. Wouldn't that be better?"
"Oh …" Hearing Lin Ray's analysis, Hui Yuan nodded repeatedly. However, when he thought about how his disciple was going to leave him, he felt a bit reluctant.
"Benefactor, don't say anymore. I've already said it outside. A master for a day is a father for life. I can't leave the sect."
Hui Yuan wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, he heard Estrangement's words. His eyes were filled with anger.
"What's wrong, Estrangement? Didn't Master say it before? You can't be too careful when you do things, and you can't get angry easily. What's wrong with you? "
"No … nothing." Hearing his master's reprimand, Estrangement quickly replied, "Master, I won't leave you. Ever since I can remember, all of my memories are with Master. I don't want to leave Master."
Looking at his disciple, Hui Yuan's heart warmed and he was extremely moved. His voice trembled as he said, "Estrangement, sooner or later, you will spread your wings and soar high. Just like Benefactor Lin said, in a sect without any resources or foundation, even gold will inevitably be hoodwinked. Earlier, Master wanted you to join another sect, but Master couldn't bear to do so. That's why you were delayed for so many years."
"That's good." Hearing Hui Yuan's words, Lin Ray was overjoyed. He originally wanted to use all methods, but he didn't expect Grandmaster Hui Yuan to have such thoughts.
"Grandmaster, I was originally worried, but after hearing Grandmaster's words, I feel much more at ease."
Hearing Lin Ray's words, Hui Yuan looked at Lin Ray with surprise. "Oh, what's wrong?"
"It's like this. I see that Estrangement's talent is outstanding, so I want to take him as my disciple. I can guarantee that Estrangement's name will shake the entire Profound Sky Continent in the future. I can even guarantee that Estrangement will be able to ascend to the Immortal World. If that's not enough, I can even take out a cultivation method that can allow one to cultivate to the Immortal World.
Seeing Lin Ray's excited expression, Hui Yuan was completely dumbfounded. It was possible to become famous in the Profound Sky Continent, but wasn't it nonsense to ascend to the Immortal World? One had to know that no matter how high one's cultivation level was, one couldn't ascend to the Immortal World. But now, this yellow-haired kid standing in front of him dared to speak so arrogantly.
"Hehe, young benefactor, you must be dreaming. The first condition you mentioned might be achievable with the condition of Estrangement, but if you want to ascend to the Immortal World, I can't believe it. If I knew that no one in the Profound Sky Continent had ever ascended to the Immortal World, you must be ignorant to speak such nonsense.
"What? You're saying that there's no way to break through the void and ascend to the Immortal World after cultivating to the Immortal World?"
Hearing Hui Yuan's words, Lin Ray couldn't react for a moment and exclaimed in surprise.
"What? Young benefactor, don't you know that you can't ascend to the Immortal World? This is something that everyone in the Profound Sky Continent knows."
Seeing Lin Ray's expression, Hui Yuan was stunned. Everyone knew that one couldn't ascend to the Immortal World. If there was someone who didn't know about it, especially a cultivator who had cultivated to the Golden Core Realm, it was really inconceivable.
"No, I really didn't know. Ever since I started cultivating, I've been cultivating alone. That's why I didn't know about this. No one has ever told me about this."
Lin Ray's words shocked Hui Yuan even more. Looking at Lin Ray's age, he was only in his teens and he had already cultivated to the Golden Core Realm. Moreover, he was cultivating alone. This was really a monstrous talent.
"I see. Benefactor, you're indeed a person with great fortune. To be able to cultivate to the Golden Core Realm at such a young age while cultivating alone, it seems like you're really not an ordinary person, let alone doing ordinary things. This old monk is ashamed, ashamed!"
At this moment, Lin Ray wasn't in the mood to listen to what Hui Yuan had to say. He was more concerned about whether Hui Yuan could return to the 21st century.
"Little Dragon, what's going on? Didn't you say that I could return to the 21st century to see my family? What's the situation now? "
Lin Ray, who wholeheartedly wanted to return to his original world, was very anxious. He didn't care if there was anyone around and directly called out to the Little Dragon who was sleeping soundly in the system in his mind.
"You … What are you trying to do? What does it have to do with you whether you can ascend or not? I want to open a tunnel for you to return to your world. Therefore, everything in this world is nothing to you. You came to this world only to cultivate. As for whether you can ascend to the Immortal Realm, that's not a problem for you at all."
Hearing the Little Dragon's words, Lin Ray asked doubtfully in his heart, wanting to confirm the authenticity of the matter, "Oh, is what you said true?"
"Hmph, I already said that as long as you complete the task given by the system, you can open a tunnel to return to your world. As for other things, you don't have to worry about it."
After hearing the Little Dragon's words, Lin Ray's tense body finally relaxed and his mood improved a lot.
"Master Hui Yuan, you just have to tell me if you agree with me accepting Alienated as my disciple. As for ascending to the Immortal Realm, I can guarantee it. As for why, please don't say too much."
After saying that, Lin Ray took out a Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique from his storage ring and placed it in front of Alienated. He said, "This is the Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique. However, this is only the chapter for cultivating to the Mahayana stage. If Alienated is willing to be my disciple, then after Alienated cultivates to the Mahayana stage, I will give the rest of the Nine Transformation Golden Body Technique to Alienated."
Hearing Lin Ray's words, Hui Yuan and his disciple picked up the Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique on the table and carefully read it. Suddenly, their eyes widened and were filled with shock and astonishment.
"Benefactor, you just took out a technique like this just like that. Aren't you afraid that we will destroy the evidence?"
Looking at the technique, Hui Yuan looked at Lin Ray and said. However, in Lin Ray's opinion, this was impossible because Lin Ray could see that there was no trace of corruption in Hui Yuan's eyes, let alone destroying the evidence.
"Haha, Master Hui Yuan must be joking. Since Master Hui Yuan has said so and I have shown my sincerity, then what do you think about accepting a disciple?"
"Hahaha, good. Looking at Benefactor's character, I believe that Alienated will be able to bring glory to the entire Mysterious Sky Continent. Therefore, I agree to let Alienated be your disciple. From today onwards, Alienated is no longer my disciple. I will take Alienated as my adopted son.
