Grassroots Immortality

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Xueting has been in Lingxi Sect for more than three years.

In three years, Yang Xueting jumped from a mortal who knew nothing about cultivating immortals to a monk with a perfect Qi training realm.

With a little preparation, he could try to break through to the foundation-building realm.

Such a cultivation speed makes those Tianlinggen monks who are also direct disciples feel a little ashamed.

This speed is at least much faster than when they were in the Qi training realm.

For ordinary disciples, they can only look up to him.

In three years, those with poor qualifications can break through to the fourth level of Qi training, which is considered good, and those with slightly better qualifications can reach the fifth or sixth level of Qi training.

Everyone thinks that Yang Xueting is a genius and has an unswerving determination to practice Taoism, which is why she can achieve such achievements.

Only she knew that the reason why she practiced so eagerly was to cure her elder brother's illness quickly.

Although Yang Xueting had a good idea in her heart, she violated the taboo of practicing.

You must not practice too hastily, and you must not be impatient, otherwise you will easily go astray.

Just when Yang Xueting was excitedly preparing to attack the foundation-building realm, she received a summons from her master Zhao Ziyan.

Arriving at Zhao Ziyan's cave, Yang Xueting saw Zhao Ziyan sitting on a futon with her eyes closed and a cinnabar mole between her eyebrows, looking like a fairy.

As a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, Zhao Ziyan has lived for more than six hundred years.

But judging from their appearance alone, no one knows who is older or younger, Zhao Ziyan or Yang Xueting.

As if sensing Yang Xueting's arrival, Zhao Ziyan slowly opened her eyes.

A pair of autumn-like eyes instantly sublimated her whole body's beauty.

It's like the finishing touch, giving Zhao Ziyan a mysterious and unique beauty that belongs only to her.

This is the second time Yang Xueting has met her master. The first time was when she met Zhao Ziyan during the apprenticeship ceremony at the entrance.

When she came to a stop about ten feet away from Zhao Ziyan, Yang Xueting performed the master-disciple ceremony towards Zhao Ziyan.

"Greetings to the Master, I don't know if the Master is summoning his disciples, but do you have something to give me?"

Zhao Ziyan's face was expressionless, as if nothing could make her emotionally fluctuate.

"Xue Ting, you are the only disciple I have accepted. Judging from your age, you have missed the best time to practice. But fortunately, you have good qualifications."

"Before you, there were many disciples who were more suitable to be accepted as disciples than you. Do you know why I didn't accept them as my disciple?"

Zhao Ziyan's words made Yang Xueting confused and felt a little baffled. She also didn't know what Zhao Ziyan meant by asking.

Shaking her head, Yang Xueting replied respectfully: "This disciple is stupid, please give me some advice from the master!"

As if knowing that Yang Xueting would say this, Zhao Ziyan continued: "My master is now at the peak of the middle Nascent Soul. Looking back on his more than 600 years of cultivation career, he has always been practicing with concentration, without any distractions, and only thinks about being able to Breakthrough in cultivation as quickly as possible.”

"So, in my heart, there is nothing but cultivation. This is why I have never recruited any disciples, because I don't intend to distract myself from guiding my disciples, and I don't want to cause any consequences."

Regarding what Zhao Ziyan said, Yang Xueting was confused and seemed to understand.

Even so, Yang Xueting understood the general meaning.

The reason why the master was unwilling to recruit disciples was because he was afraid of affecting her own cultivation, but why did she suddenly recruit her into her sect?

What's more, from Zhao Ziyan's words, Yang Xueting also understood one thing very clearly. There were not many candidates who were more suitable than herself, but Zhao Ziyan chose her as her disciple in the end.

Why is this?

Zhao Ziyan saw the change in Yang Xueting's expression and knew that Yang Xueting might not understand the meaning of her words.

So he went on to say: "Because my teacher was focused on cultivation, thinking about constantly breaking through bottlenecks and improving his realm as quickly as possible, he neglected the cultivation of his character, which was self-defeating and led to the current bottleneck."

"I have been trapped in the bottleneck of the middle stage of Yuan Ying for nearly a hundred years. During these hundred years, I have been thinking hard, and I have gained some understanding. I also have different views on cultivation. Haste makes waste, I hope you can understand this truth. ”

The more Yang Xueting listened, the more confused she became. The master seemed to be teaching her how to practice.

Regarding the matter of cultivation, we cannot speak too straightforwardly. The monks need to understand it themselves. If you talk about it to this extent and still cannot understand the meaning, it only means that the monks have no understanding and cannot cultivate on the way to immortality. Go as far as you can.

For such disciples, there is no need to spend more energy.

After listening to Zhao Ziyan's words, Yang Xueting seemed to understand Zhao Ziyan's real intention in calling her here.

"Master, I am practicing hard for no other reason than to be able to cure my brother's illness. As for whether I have a future or not, I don't care. As long as I can cure my brother, even if it costs my life, I will No regrets!”

When Zhao Ziyan heard this, a strange color flashed in her eyes.

The answer Yang Xueting gave surprised her.

Ordinary monks, as long as they embark on the path to immortality, will cut off almost all worldly ties and concentrate on cultivation.

From then on, they only had the path of immortality in their hearts, and everything else was just a passing cloud.

The disciple in front of me is obviously not this kind of person. This may be a drawback of embarking on the path to immortality only at the age of eighteen.

If Yang Xueting had joined Lingxi Sect to cultivate immortals when she was about five years old, would she still worry about a mortal brother at this moment?

She would even sacrifice her life for him!

Doesn't she know how precious the life of an immortal cultivator is, not to mention that she is a cultivator with a mutant thunder spirit!

Doesn't she know what kind of future she will have in the future?

Would she rather ruin her bright future for a mortal?

After hearing Yang Xueting's answer and seeing Yang Xueting's determined face.

Zhao Ziyan sighed deeply in her heart.

Her request was in vain!

Since she accepted this disciple, she had already prepared for some causes and effects that would be involved because of her.

This was also Zhao Ziyan's own choice, and it was also the cultivation she needed.

After cultivating immortals for more than 600 years, Zhao Ziyan can be said to be focused and practicing without any distractions.

She has hardly had any friendship with anyone.

Cultivation is her life, and cultivation is everything to her.

Before the Nascent Soul stage, this practice did not have any impact on her cultivation.

However, after reaching the middle stage of Nascent Soul, Zhao Ziyan discovered that her understanding of cultivation was so one-sided.
