The Qingyun Sect’s stronghold in the imperial capital was not big.
It appeared like a normal courtyard on the surface.
After all, those who could come here were at least Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
Therefore, only less than 50 Qingyun Sect disciples were qualified to enter the Full Moon Mountain Range.
This number even included many Core Formation Stage elders of the sect.
In the Qingyun Sect, many Core Formation Stage elders had reached the stage where they did not care about worldly matters.
Most of them were looking for a way to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
If they could not break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, their lifespans would not be able to increase further.
Therefore, in order to cultivate better, these Core Formation Stage elders would basically only appear when the sect was in a major crisis. The rest of the time, they would go into seclusion in the mountain.
It was the same mountain where Lu Yuan cultivated in seclusion.
For these people, the Path for Immortal Ascension in the Full Moon Mountain Range was undoubtedly a very important opportunity.
It might be very difficult for them to have a breakthrough in the Lower Realm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, things might be different in the Upper Realm.
The Upper Realm’s dense spiritual energy could greatly reduce the difficulty of their breakthrough.
Not to mention that there were many cultivation techniques in the Upper Realm that the Lower Realm did not have.
As long as they could enter the Upper Realm, they could transcend to another plane of existence.
Therefore, there were a total of five Core Formation Stage elders from the Qingyun Sect in the stronghold at the moment.
Among them was Lu Yuan’s master, Han Yuanshan.
However, if Lu Yuan, who was hiding his cultivation, was included, there would be a total of six Core Formation Stage elders present.
“Lu Yuan, did you actually break through to Level 8 of the Foundation Establishment Stage?”
Han Yuanshan was shocked when he met Lu Yuan, who had kept his cultivation at Level 8 of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Han Yuanshan clearly remembered that when he asked Lu Yuan to leave the mountain, this kid was only at Level 1 or 2 of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
It had not been that long since they last met. It had been less than 30 years since the latter had left the mountain.
This kid’s cultivation had increased by so much. He was monstrous!
Moreover, didn’t he cultivate multiple spiritual roots? How could he cultivate so quickly then?
Seeing that his master was shocked, in a regretful tone he rarely used, Lu Yuan said, “Master, I don’t know why my cultivation has progressed so quickly. Perhaps it’s because my state of mind has changed greatly after leaving the sect.”
He continued explaining, “Without the pressure of the sect’s assessment, coupled with the fact that my life is relatively easygoing, it’s easier to cultivate as I please.”
Han Yuanshan was dumbfounded by his words.
What was his disciple talking about? Why couldn’t he understand him?
Lu Yuan actually continued with his speech, “Sigh, my cultivation speed could be even faster. After all, after 1 left the mountain, I still spent a part of my time dealing with matters in the mortal world. If it weren’t for these trivial matters, I might have already reached the Core Formation Stage.”
Hearing this, Han Yuanshan’s face darkened.
Hey, hey, hey! What did he mean by that? Was Lu Yuan indirectly accusing him?
Was Lu Yuan blaming him for sending him down the mountain and causing him to be unable to focus on cultivation?
Looking at Han Yuanshan’s twitching mouth, Lu Yuan laughed internally.
Seeing his master angry was indeed something that made him very happy.
Lu Yuan was still a little dissatisfied with Han Yuanshan for forcing him to leave the mountain.
After all, he could cultivate well on the mountain. There was no need for him to leave.
Han Yuanshan touched his forehead speechlessly as he looked at this rebellious disciple.
He grunted, “Forget about it. Perhaps 1 was really inconsiderate back then.”
Speaking of this, Han Yuanshan also noticed Xu Wan’er and Shan Yao beside Lu Yuan.
Han Yuanshan hadn’t noticed them before.
When he observed the cultivation of these two people, the shock in his heart was even greater than when he saw Lu Yuan.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was because the two of them looked younger than Lu Yuan.
However, their cultivation was not far behind that of Lu Yuan’s.
Lu Yuan’s cultivation speed was one of the fastest Han Yuanshan had seen.
However, he didn’t expect that there would be two more monsters like him.
Han Yuanshan asked out of curiosity, “Lu Yuan, who are these two?”
Lu Yuan looked at the two people beside him and said with a smile, “Master, these two are the two female disciples 1 happened to accept after I left the mountain.”
Han Yuanshan looked at Lu Yuan strangely when he heard the term female disciple.
His gaze seemed to be implying, “As expected of the sentimental wastrel of the Qingyun Sect. You managed to hook up with two beautiful female cultivators just after leaving the mountain. It’s a waste of your talent to put you in the Qingyun Sect. With your ability, you should join the Huanxi Sect of the devilish way.”
Han Yuanshan didn’t say these words out loud.
He nodded at Xu Wan’er and Shan Yao before asking Lu Yuan to invite them out.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan asked the two of them to wait for him in the hall.
Xu Wan’er and Shan Yao obediently left the room.
When there was only him and Han Yuanshan in the room, Lu Yuan asked, “Is there something you wanted to tell me?”
“How much do you know about the Path for Immortal Ascension?”
Lu Yuan didn’t answer immediately. He was thinking about the reason why Han Yuanshan was asking him this question.
In just a few breaths, Lu Yuan realized why Han Yuanshan was asking him this.
If his guess was correct, Han Yuanshan was questioning him because the former was shocked by his current cultivation even though he had hidden most of it..
