Li Cheng was not lying; his master often mentioned Bai Tieyi.

“Of course it’s true. Master often says that the one he admires the most is you, Senior Brother Tieyi!” Li Cheng said with a smile.

These words were indeed true. Bai Tieyi had reached the complete stage of the Transcendence Tribulation Stage in just three hundred years, which was a testament to his extraordinary talent.

But when he was crossing his tribulation, he deliberately attracted the Tribulation Thunder to shatter his physical body, and his Nascent Soul fled, shifting to cultivate as a Loose Immortal.

In the following seven hundred years, he triggered the Loose Immortal Tribulation five times, each time crossing it with ease, becoming a Five Tribulations Loose Immortal with inscrutable strength.

The Loose Immortal Tribulation, originally occurring once every thousand years and becoming increasingly stronger with each occurrence, is something most Loose Immortals hope comes later rather than sooner. Bai Tieyi, however, was different; he actively summoned the Loose Immortal Tribulation, using it to strengthen himself with its Tribulation Thunder.

In just seven hundred years, he crossed it five times, gaining the strength of a Five Tribulations Loose Immortal. He did this, naturally, for the sake of the sect.

Having crossed the Loose Immortal Tribulation five times in seven hundred years, for the next four thousand three hundred years, the Loose Immortal Tribulation would not seek him out unless he summoned it himself.

It was clear that Bai Tieyi would do so again.

“Uncle Wuya really said he admires me?” Bai Tieyi looked somewhat excited before adding, “But he is a Ten Tribulations Loose Immortal, known as Ten Tribulations Wuya!”

Li Cheng, wearing a smile, thought that the master must admire him for sacrificing his own prospects for the sake of the sect.

A sect’s top combat power lies in its Loose Immortals!

A sect without Loose Immortals at its helm might unwittingly provoke the wrong entities and could be annihilated at any moment.

But with Loose Immortals, especially ones like Bai Tieyi who have crossed multiple Loose Immortal Tribulations, even an Immortal descending to the mortal world would not dare to provoke them casually.

Historical records state that a hundred thousand years ago, many powerful beings from the Immortal World came down to the Kunlun Realm and did as they pleased, until a Loose Immortal intervened and killed all those powerful beings!

That Loose Immortal was known as Grand Venerable Bai Jie!

No one knows for sure if Grand Venerable Bai Jie had really passed hundreds of Loose Immortal Tribulations, as that might be too exaggerated. However, the site of those powerful Immortal World beings’ demise still exists today, with powerful Immortal Power Fluctuations lingering.

Since then, no Immortals have dared to openly descend to the Kunlun Realm.

Nonetheless, Grand Venerable Bai Jie has not been seen for a long time. There are rumors that he disappeared more than ten thousand years ago, which is why, over these ten thousand years, the Immortal World seems to have forgotten the bitter lessons of the past and has begun to plot something once again.

“Uncle Wuya actually said he admires me, haha…” Bai Tieyi laughed heartily.

Li Cheng could understand Bai Tieyi’s feelings; Bai Tieyi probably saw his master as an idol, and hearing a word of admiration from his idol naturally filled him with joy.

After a short while, Bai Tieyi calmed his emotions and turned to ask, “Little Junior Brother, why don’t you cross your tribulation and ascend? Are you afraid of failing the tribulation?”

“That’s not it. I just don’t want to ascend so quickly. I want to train a few disciples, that’s all,” Li Cheng replied with a dry laugh.

Bai Tieyi stepped forward, patted Li Cheng on the shoulder, and said, “With your talent, it won’t take many years for you to become one of the strongest in the Immortal World. That is your stage; you shouldn’t stay here!”

Li Cheng was speechless; here was yet another one trying to persuade him to ascend.

Ascension was out of the question. Li Cheng planned to seek Enlightenment repeatedly, using it to comprehend Laws and grow stronger before considering it.

The strength of Grand Venerable Bai Jie a hundred thousand years ago had guided countless descendants; one didn’t necessarily have to be in the Immortal World to become powerful.

Li Cheng, through Enlightenment, could understand the Laws and become very strong as well.

Li Cheng was fully confident that he could even surpass Grand Venerable Bai Jie of the past!

When that time came, he would ascend and need only to transform the Immortal Dao Laws to become a great power, would that not be good?

“Senior Brother Tieyi, I have made up my mind,” Li Cheng said without further explanation, his tone unequivocal.

Bai Tieyi, feeling helpless, could only nod and after a few more idle chats, he left.

But Li Cheng saw that Bai Tieyi did not want to let it go so easily.

It didn’t matter, though; as long as he did not wish it, how could others force him to ascend?

No longer dwelling on it, Li Cheng examined the changes from his moment of enlightenment.

First was his spiritual sense, which had grown much stronger than before, now encompassing an area of over three hundred miles.

Then came the laws, within his Nascent Soul, two additional laws of fire had emerged. With these laws of fire, his True Fire had become much more powerful than before!

“I’ve used up my chances for enlightenment, and Yun Tianqiong definitely won’t be returning soon, it’s time to take on disciples!”

Li Cheng shifted his gaze to Seventh Peak and then glanced at the lake of magma beneath him. It was better to move a mountain over first!

Otherwise, once he took disciples, they would have nowhere to stay.

As he was about to step out, Li Cheng suddenly thought, did he need to do this task himself?

His spiritual sense surged forth, locking onto the Sect Master within the Palace of the Heaven Secret, “Sect Master, could you please arrange for someone to help me move a mountain back here? I need one that’s steep and majestic.”

“I have already arranged for the Sixth Elder to take care of it, Uncle can rest easy!”

The Sixth Elder was proficient in formations, and the Sect Master had chosen him for the task, likely in the hopes that he could move a mountain back unscathed using his formations, as others would inevitably cause damage to the mountain.

Since the Sect Master had already made arrangements, Li Cheng no longer needed to worry about it. His figure flickered, and he appeared on Seventh Peak.

The grand ceremony had concluded that day, and at present, Seventh Peak was busy welcoming thirty-some new disciples.

Each peak among the Inner Gate would take in around twenty to thirty disciples annually, and Seventh Peak had accepted quite a few this year.

Being an Inner Sect Disciple required at least the cultivation of the Golden Core Stage, which in many smaller sects would be top-notch combat power, yet here it was just enough to qualify as an Inner Sect Disciple.

Li Cheng stood mid-air, not disrupting the welcome ceremony of Seventh Peak, and only after the ceremony ended did he send a message to the Seventh Elder.

The Seventh Elder felt quite helpless, as everyone in Seventh Peak was passionate about the Alchemy Dao. Being noticed by Uncle was not necessarily a good thing.

But since the words were already spoken, the Seventh Elder had no choice but to fly out of the hall with resignation, greeting with a cupped fist salute, “Uncle!”

Li Cheng grinned, “Seventh Elder, I’m here as agreed!”

At the mention of this, the Seventh Elder’s facial muscles involuntarily twitched, “Uncle, how would you like to exchange skills?”

Li Cheng’s smile was unwavering, “Of course, through alchemy. Let’s start with Nascent Soul Breaking Dan, and proceed to refine Spirit Transforming Dan and Fusion Dao Pill respectively. We’ll exchange insights as we practice our alchemy!”

The Seventh Elder was startled; these three Spirit Pills, used respectively to assist breakthroughs into the Nascent Soul Stage, Divinity Transformation Stage, and Fusion Dao Stage, were very difficult to refine!

With the Seventh Elder’s knowledge, there was no certainty of success.

“Does Uncle intend to make it a best-of-three?” asked the Seventh Elder doubtfully.

Li Cheng shrugged noncommittally, “It’s just an exchange, win or lose isn’t important!”

The Seventh Elder looked at Li Cheng closely, feeling as though those words were a way to give himself a fallback.

Indeed, while Li Cheng’s theoretical knowledge was sufficient, he had never actually practiced alchemy, so how could he be overconfident in his statements?

Just like when he had taken in Yun Tianqiong, Li Cheng hadn’t dared to make full promises; if Yun Tianqiong hadn’t intended on returning, Li Cheng would definitely not have accepted him.

After all, if someone ignored their family’s revenge and national hatred, how could their state of mind ever be complete?

In that case, their future achievements would be very limited.

Fortunately, Yun Tianqiong had gained enlightenment from that sword scar and hurried back.

This time was the same; by framing the discussion as an exchange, Li Cheng left an out, no matter who won or lost, right?

After a moment of silence, the Seventh Elder finally nodded, “It just so happens that all the disciples of Seventh Peak have emerged from seclusion. Such an opportunity for exchange is rare. If Uncle doesn’t mind, I would like all disciples to come and observe!”

Li Cheng raised an eyebrow subtly, are you sure you want everyone to come and observe?
