Chapter 35: Supreme Elders

Translator: 549690339 ¹

“Lin, did you really kill a Golden Core Realm eighth-level bandit?” “How is that possible… The eighth level of the Golden Core Realm is already close to the standard for our Mount Shu Elders!

The other Mount Shu disciples who were tallying couldn’t believe it and turned their gazes toward the leading Mount Shu disciple.

The Golden Core Realm ninth-level Mount Shu disciple nodded, “Bandit Sima Kuang was indeed personally killed by Lin. I witnessed it with my own eyes, and there is not a shred of exaggeration. Lin, as of now, has reached the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm.”

“Lin has only been in the sect for four years, and he’s already at the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm?”

“Initially, our master said I was a cultivation genius, but it took me forty years of practice at Mount Shu to reach the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm. I never expected Lin to achieve it in just four years. Compared to Lin, I might as well have wasted those forty years living a dog’s life.”

“Sigh, the difference between people is even greater than that between a person and a dog.”

“If that’s really the case, Lin is truly a heaven-sent prodigy, and his future is

boundless.”

“Since we are in the same sect, I hope Lin will take good care of us in the

future.”

The crowd of Mount Shu disciples showed solemn respect for Lin Qingzhi.

Having joined the sect only four years ago, Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation had already neared the minimum requirement to become an Elder of Mount Shu.

It was estimated that in a few years, as soon as Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation reached the Nascent Soul Realm and he completed the Elder¹ s trial task, he would rightfully become an Elder of Mount Shu.

Although Lin Qingzhi might not be the youngest Elder in the history of Mount Shu, his rate of cultivation could definitely rank him within the top ten.

A portion of the Mount Shu disciples, seeing Lin Qingzhi’s frightening potential, spontaneously struck up conversations with him.

Many female disciples looked at Lin Qingzhi with added interest in their eyes. Even though Lin Qingzhi was rather ordinary in appearance, the chance of becoming an Elder of Mount Shu was enough to captivate quite a few female disciples.

However, Chen Yao standing by Lin Qingzhi’s side made many female disciples hesitate to approach.

Chen Yao was stunningly beautiful and a direct disciple of the Supreme Elders, with a special physique, destined to become an Elder of Mount Shu. Not many female disciples could stand next to Chen Yao without feeling overshadowed.

“How could this guy have already reached the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm? Doesn’t that make him two minor realms higher than me…” Xiao Xiangdao, endowed with the Spirit Sword Physique and diligent in his practise, had advanced to the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm during the year-long trial following the Mount Shu disciples’ conference. He thought himself the most outstanding Mount Shu disciple of his generation, but never expected Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation to have surpassed his own already.

“I am the third prince of Liang Kingdom. How could I lose to an orphan? I shall cultivate day and night to reclaim the top spot!”

Xiao Xiangdao, discontent in his heart, soared away on his sword, returning to

Li Changye¹ s Wuy ang Peak.

“The trial is over; I should return to Bimoon Peak and continue my practice

with Master.”

Chen Yao’s thought stirred, and the Skywave Sword behind her unsheathed.

“Disciple, you will escort her for me.”

Lu Changsheng, seeing his senior disciple unmoved, urged him on.

This was an opportunity to build a relationship with the Supreme Elders of

Mount Shu.

It might be a chance for his disciple to have a stroke of good fortune.

“Alright.”

Lin Qingzhi took it as a Sect mission to escort Chen Yao back to Bimoon Peak. In reality, within Mount Shu, there was no need to worry about security, at least for the time being.

At Bimoon Peak, an old crone leaning on a wooden cane was watering thousand-year-old medicinal herbs in the medicinal garden.

Two streaks of light fell, one of them speaking with a slightly excited tone, “Master, your disciple has returned from the trial!

“Hmm.”

The old crone responded indifferently, the more one experienced, the calmer one became.

“Qingyun Peak disciple Lin Qingzhi pays respects to the Supreme Elder. I have been tasked by my mentor to escort my fellow sister back to Bimoon Peak.

Lin Qingzhi treated the seemingly ordinary old crone with great respect. The Supreme Elder of Mount Shu, contemporary with the Sect Leader of Mount Shu, it’s uncertain whether this person is the Sect Leader’s senior or junior sister. Having lived to such an age, her cultivation is unfathomably deep.

“Oh?”

The old crone turned around, scrutinizing Lin Qingzhi from head to toe with a gaze sharp as a knife, but Lin Qingzhi remained calm and unshaken.

“Your Dao Bone, to have such cultivation in less than twenty years, is your master an Elder of Qingyun Peak? If I remember correctly, that Lu Changsheng from Qingyun Peak was the last Direct Disciple taken in by the Sect Leader’s junior brother. His talent couldn’t be said to be poor, but neither was he an unparalleled genius. How could he have taught a disciple like you?

“indeed, it was the Temple Master of Hidden Dragon Temple who told my Sect Leader’s junior brother that Lu Changsheng has a predestined fairy connection with our Mount Shu, which is why the Sect Leader’s junior brother took Lu Changsheng as his disciple.”

The old crone seemed to be conversing with Lin Qingzhi, yet also as if talking to herself.

Lin Qingzhi was secretly astonished.

Could it be that this old crone who addressed the Taiyuan real person as the Sect Leader’s junior brother was Taiyuan’s senior sister?!

Wouldn’t that mean she’s even older than Taiyuan himself?

In this world, age and cultivation are greatly correlated for a simple reason-if one’s cultivation isn’t high, they simply can’t live that long.

The old crone in front of him must have lived for at least three thousand years. “The junior has fulfilled my master’s commands, and now I take my leave,” Lin Qingzhi said with the utmost respect as he bowed.

Chen Yao bit her lip lightly, her eyes twinkling with a mix of brightness and a hint of loss.

“Young man, did you only come to return my little disciple because of your master’s orders?” the crone’s face suddenly turned serious.

“The junior…”

Just as Lin Qingzhi was about to give an honest reply, the old crone suddenly transmitted a message to him silently.

“Smelly brat, if you dare to answer truthfully, I will kill you with one palm, then kill your master!”

“Senior, could it be that the junior has done something wrong?”

“You only need to do as the old crone says.”

“The junior obeys.”

A chill ran down Lin Qingzhi’s spine, having heard that the Supreme Elder had given up hope on transcending tribulation and ended her seclusion, concentrating on instructing disciples. With her quirky temper, she truly might kill him and Lu Changsheng in a fit of rage.

After the old crone spoke, Lin Qingzhi had no choice but to repeat her words: “The junior certainly didn’t come only to follow the master’s orders. I also hoped to bring Senior Sister back myself. Sister Chen, you are welcome to visit Qingyun Peak to exchange pointers with me anytime… anytime.

“Mm.”

Chen Yao’s face lit up with joy, dispelling her previous sense of loss.

Lin Qingzhi left Bimoon Peak on his flying sword.

“Alas, how did my disciple come to fancy such a simpleton? She¹ s bound to suffer for it in the future. But youth… youth is wonderful…”

The old crone, leaning on her wooden staff, seemed to be lost in memories of the past.

Upon returning to Qingyun Peak, Lu Changsheng continued Power-infusing Initiation upon Lin Qingzhi, bestowing upon him various Elixir Pills, magical treasures, and Cultivation Techniques.

Lin Qingzhi had been away from the mountain for a year, and because he hadn’t received Power-infusing Initiation from Lu Changsheng during this period, his cultivation improved slowly, currently still at the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm.

However, Lin Qingzhi had wandered the jianghu over the past year, gaining much experience which would be greatly beneficial to his future cultivation. After all, solitary cultivation without experience would be like building a cart behind closed doors.

This is akin to university students who, if they don’t venture out into society t struggle, will ultimately find it difficult to become pillars of strength.

In addition, Chen Yao, a disciple from Bimoon Peak, would occasionally come to visit Qingyun Peak.

With Lin Qingzhi and Chen Yao to spar with, the energetic Lian finally didn’t need to go around causing trouble anymore.
