The Ice Guest Sword was a little annoyed recently because his cultivation had reached a bottleneck!
But he was not alone, because he had someone to keep him company, Li Peinan.
At their age, this realm was already very awkward. They were over a thousand years old, but they could not find the path to the upper realm. How were they going to spend the last two hundred years?
The Great Dao collapsed, and the net opened up. In this era, the requirements for the upper realm had actually been lowered. But no matter how low it was, there would always be a limit. It was impossible to really open up the Dao and not differentiate between the good and the bad.
Overall, the middle and low-level cultivators benefited the most. The success rate of Foundation Establishment and Core Formation was almost doubled. But in the Yuanying, there was still a limit to this improvement. At the juncture of Supreme, the restrictions were stricter, and it was definitely easier than before. But to say that it became very easy was also nonsense.
Once one became a Supreme, one's lifespan would suddenly increase from one thousand two hundred years in the Yuanying to three thousand years. This was a huge threshold. For such a breakthrough, the control of the Heavenly Dao would never be too loose.
Therefore, most of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators would still be stopped at this juncture. There were too many tests to be had. People like the Ice Guest Sword and Li Peinan were only barely outstanding characters in the Blue Sky Sect. Once they reached the Dome of the Five Rings, which was a great melting pot of geniuses, how could they appear again?
Not being able to reach the upper realm was normal for them. If they were lucky enough to succeed, it would be a great stroke of luck. The Heavenly Dao would not let them go just because they knew Lou Xiaoyi. These were two different things.
Even someone as outstanding as Yan Bo still fell at this juncture. In terms of aptitude, they were far from being comparable to Yan Bo. This was the problem that they were facing!
Among the three shakes in Qing Kong, only Huang Xiaoya had the most hope. She was also in seclusion at the Dome. She heard from a familiar senior that there was a great chance!
Only the two of them were left here, sharing the same fate.
In these few decades, the two of them also actively participated in many sect activities. In the test of blood and fire, they gradually grew into two true Xuanyuan Swordsman. But this did not mean that the Heavenly Dao would open up a gap because of this. There were many factors that determined whether one could reach the upper realm or not.
The problem with the two of them was that they had the mental state and the comprehension, but they always felt that they didn't have enough accumulation. This was actually the result of their leisurely time in Clear Sky.
He would not go so far as to drink alone, but Iceman Sword was already considering whether he should return to Azure Sky. If he was destined to achieve nothing, he would rather spend his last moments guarding his hometown. There were too many memories in that place, and he could not forget them!
He wanted to pull Li Peinan back with him so that they could be companions. They had been companions for hundreds of years. It seemed that it would be difficult to separate them again. Moreover, he felt that he could always turn misfortunes into blessings and calamities into auspiciousness. Apart from being able to pass on misfortune to others, it was also very important to have someone who could endure it by his side!
For him, was there anyone more suitable than Young Master Li for the body of transmigration?
But this guy didn't seem to want to go back! He didn't know what he was thinking. Staying here, was it only because he said that his life was in his own hands and not in the hands of God?
This day, Iceman Sword was still practicing in the cave residence. Although the hope was slim, as a cultivator of the Yuanying class, he would not give up just because the hope was small. This was the most basic quality of a cultivator. But now he was also very clear that with his progress, the possibility of reaching the upper realm in his lifetime was not big. This was the most intuitive understanding of his own body.
Outside the cave residence, someone landed on the ground. Without saying anything, he lifted his foot and barged in. And he purposely stepped on the eye of the array. He did not push to enter the door, but directly kicked it. Except for one person on the dome, there was no one else who could do this.
Li Peinan walked into the cave residence impatiently, "Don't pretend here. Even if you hold it in for a thousand years, you won't be able to do anything! Pack up, we are going back to Azure Sky immediately! "
Iceman Sword immediately switched from sitting cross-legged state and jumped up, "Senior Brother, have you thought it through? Like I said, what's wrong with going back to Azure Sky? We can still make it in time to meet some old friends, reminisce about the old days, drink wine, do some gardening, write some calligraphy, and tell the younger generation about our countless experiences over the years. Isn't that good … "
His mouth was rambling, but he reacted quickly, "That's not right? How can it be so fast? We have to transfer the request and wait for approval. Even if we find someone to make an exception, it won't be approved without a few years. Packing up, Senior Brother, are you out of your mind? "
Li Peinan was impatient, "Hurry up, tomorrow the ferry will depart. You and I are both on the list! Please transfer, this is a mission, you can't not go back even if you don't want to! "
Iceman Sword's eyes lit up, "Senior Brother, is Azure Sky going to war again? Good! We can go back and guard our hometown!
You said that we are all on the list, then how many brothers will go back this time? Who will lead the team? Is it easy to talk to them? Should we prepare some gifts in advance and pay them a visit at night? After the war, we won't come back, then it will be easier for us to open our mouths! "
Li Peinan looked at him. This guy might look a little silly, but fortune favors fools.
"It's not a war, but a specialized training trip. This time, there are a total of 300 Yuanying Perfected Monarchs traveling together …"
Iceman Sword was even more confused, but he knew something was going to happen. He hurriedly took out the immortal wine he had stashed away, poured a cup for Senior Brother, and waited on him.
Li Peinan's eyes were smiling, not because of the wine, but because he was happy.
"According to the news from Azure Sky, the Grandpa Big Tree in Zuo Zhou has been transferred, and a new Connate Spiritual Treasure has arrived. I heard it's called the Suan Ni treasure ship. I can't find out the exact reason, but I heard that the Grandpa Suan Ni is closer to my Xuanyuan than the Big Tree!
Therefore, the sect has ordered that all those in the late stage of Yuanying who are not sure of their Upper Realm, and those who are struggling in the Perfected Monarch realm, must return to Zuo Zhou and cultivate inside the treasure ship. I heard that it's very beneficial for cultivators who are trying to break through to the next realm, especially for those like us who have comprehended and have a state of mind, but are lacking in foundation. It's especially targeted!
That's why I said, you're lucky. You found a way out when you were about to die. Isn't that wonderful? "
Iceman Sword was still a little confused. "The Grandpa Big Tree has left? I haven't been in there yet! But this is really good news, killing two birds with one stone! When we go back this time, will Sister Yatou and the rest go back with us? "
Li Peinan shook his head. "Those who have the ability have to work hard! This is the tradition of my Xuanyuan! Only people like you and me who don't work hard will rely on the power of the treasure ship! The higher-ups have said that such opportunities are rare, because our Xuanyuan has an agreement with the treasure ship. We can't allow the cultivators below to take shortcuts!
It's only because the universe is in chaos and the epoch is changing, or else the sect will definitely not agree to such a thing.
Why, you still have the heart to struggle to break through to the Upper Realm? "
Iceman Sword shook his head. "I know my limits, I won't pretend to be a wolf!"
