Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 30: Refusal!

After a moment.

Jiang Yuan appeared at the archway.

He was dressed in white, with a strand of hair tied up neatly, giving him a clean and sharp appearance.

The woman who looked like a Taoist nun frowned slightly when she saw Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan bowed and said, "Greetings, County Lord, greetings, senior."

[Name]: Gong Sunzhi

[Realm]: Divine Bridge Realm, Triple

[Innate Luck]: Outstanding (Blue), Kui Shui Spirit Body (Blue), Proficient Swordsmanship (Green).

[Outstanding]: Exceptional talent in cultivation, greatly weakened bottleneck, significantly increased cultivation speed.

[Kui Shui Spirit Body]: Special physique, rapid progress in water-based cultivation techniques, and enhanced power.

[Proficient Swordsmanship]: Extraordinary aptitude in swordsmanship, rapid progress in the path of sword techniques, and greatly increased comprehension.

This should be a member of the Sunset Sect.

What kind of realm is the Divine Bridge Realm?

Curiosity arose in Jiang Yuan's heart.

The Taoist nun looked at him with a slight frown. "Are you Jiang Yuan?"

"Yes," Jiang Yuan replied.

"Come here, let me feel your aptitude!"

"Yes," Jiang Yuan respectfully said and quickly approached.

She pinched Jiang Yuan's bones from top to bottom, then shook her head. "Not qualified!"

"Senior, why?" Li Hong couldn't help but speak up.

She glanced at Li Hong, who instantly felt like he had been struck.

He took several steps back, leaving deep footprints on the ground, and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Only one chance!"

Then she looked at Jiang Yuan and said lightly, "Your physical body is good! But your spiritual energy is ordinary, no different from an average person. To be admitted to the inner sect, you are not qualified!"

Li Hong, who was standing aside, dared not speak anymore.

Just now, he had questioned the sect elder without thinking and received punishment.

That was just a minor punishment.

Now, if he dared to speak out of turn again, the consequences would be much worse.

This person was an elder of the sect, in charge of the Hall of Punishment, with a high position and authority.

He was only an outer sect disciple, even though he was just one step away from the inner sect.

But compared to the sect elder, the difference in status was like heaven and earth.

The difference in realm was even more insurmountable.

At this moment, Jiang Yuan remained calm and bowed. "Thank you for coming all this way, senior."

"You are not convinced?" she suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

This person gave Jiang Yuan a feeling of unpredictability, and her words must have a purpose.

"Still honest!" she said. "I can roughly sense your emotions from this distance. If you hadn't been honest, I wouldn't have bothered talking to you."

"Since you are so honest, I will tell you something."

Then she continued, "Your talent is not bad, but it's just not outstanding. Have you heard of Zhao Li from Dashun Prefecture?"

"I have," Jiang Yuan nodded.

She said, "Let me tell you, only someone like him is qualified to directly enter the inner sect of our Sunset Sect. Your spiritual energy is average, and the Nurturing Spirit Realm will surely trouble you for a long time, perhaps half a year, perhaps a year, unless..."

She shook her head, "Forget it, it's even more impossible!"

Then she continued, "The path of cultivation requires taking one step at a time. It's not surprising for someone of your age to be at this level. In my sect, the Sunset Sect, there are some outstanding outer disciples of your age who have surpassed you. Moreover, your spiritual power is average, so how can you qualify to directly enter the inner sect of my Sunset Sect?"

"You should know that entering the inner sect means receiving true teachings, just like Zhao Li, who has already become my disciple!"

Just then, Li Hong suddenly spoke up, "Could Senior Uncle consider accepting him as an outer disciple of our Sunset Sect? It's not easy for him to come this far in a small place! I don't want him to waste his talent and time here."

"You are kind-hearted!" She glanced at Li Hong and said, "But with my status, do I need to personally recruit a mere outer disciple?"

She turned to Jiang Yuan and said, "If you have the intention, you can go to my Sunset Sect to become a disciple! If you come to apprentice, I will naturally welcome you."

"When you break through the limits of the mortal world and enter the Meridian Opening Realm, you can naturally enter the inner sect!"

After saying that, she flew up into the air and disappeared into the horizon in an instant.

Jiang Yuan's gaze immediately focused, feeling a slight shock in his heart.

Is this the existence of the Divine Bridge Realm?

To be able to fly in the air at such speed, it's terrifying!

"Ah!" Li Hong sighed slowly beside him, "I originally thought that your talent qualified you to enter the inner sect of our Sunset Sect, but now it seems that I was thinking too much."

Jiang Yuan said, "Thank you, County Lord."

"It's nothing!" Li Hong shook his head and comforted Jiang Yuan, "It's difficult to enter the inner sect, even for me. In order to break through to the Meridian Opening Realm and enter the inner sect, I had to take on missions for the sect in Lian'an County for many years, accumulating achievements in exchange for auxiliary elixirs to help me break through the nine levels of Body Tempering and enter the Meridian Opening Realm, thus transcending the ordinary."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "Thank you, County Lord, for your concern. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan bowed and turned away.

Li Hong raised his hand, wanting to stop Jiang Yuan and say something.

But then he slowly put his hand down.

"Ah!" He sighed softly.

On the way, Jiang Yuan felt no discouragement in his heart, but rather great excitement, filled with the motivation to move forward.

Just now, when he saw Gong Sunzhi flying up into the air and disappearing into the horizon in an instant, his heart yearned for it.

To travel to the North Sea in the morning and stay in Cangwu at night.

What a carefree and joyful life.

This world is truly wonderful.

And he, with a lifespan of ten thousand years, will eventually reach such a realm.

As for Gong Sunzhi's evaluation of him just now, he didn't care at all.

His talent is not something she can understand.

With the long lifespan he possesses, so-called geniuses are nothing but fleeting clouds.

The calamity of a beautiful woman is nothing but a pile of bones. Only longevity is eternal.

And the path to longevity is not far from him.

As long as that purple Innate Luck can still be upgraded, continuing forward, it will be a path that leads directly to longevity.

With longevity, what realm can't be surpassed?

What achievements can't be reached?

Moreover, besides a long lifespan, his talent is also extraordinary, and his future talent will only become stronger.

Perhaps the only shortcoming he currently has, as she mentioned, is his average spiritual power.

The fusion of the eighth level of Body Tempering and the ninth level of Nurturing Spirit has troubled him for a long time.

But that's not a problem. He has plenty of time.

Thinking about all this, Jiang Yuan quickened his pace and headed towards Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

For now, the key is to break through to the eighth level of Body Tempering. Only by entering the eighth level of Body Tempering can his spiritual power grow to a certain extent, giving him a bit of confidence to fight against the leader of the Black Wind Bandit.

In this way, he can fulfill Jiang Zhenyuan's final request and escort that brocade box.

By doing so, he can completely resolve this cause and effect and focus on his cultivation.

As for joining the Sunset Sect as a disciple, that can be discussed later!
