Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Chapter 724: The Shadow of the Great Zhoutian Xingchen Gate, Li Dai Tao Jiang
At noon, this special child felt hungry, so Luo Yan took him to the nearest restaurant.

This restaurant is very tall and its decoration is very magnificent. It is almost the largest in the entire Difei City, so many people come to dine here.

Luo Yan and his companion sat down in the restaurant lobby and ordered a pot of second-grade spirit wine, a plate of sea fish fillets, and two side dishes.

Although these foods contain spiritual or demonic energy, they have been specially processed in advance, so Zhong Ning can still digest them.

Next to them, there were also many diners eating and whispering.

"Have you heard? The Five Elements Immortal Sect is going to open its gates again and start recruiting new disciples. I wonder if there will be any young talents from our Lung City who can pass the assessment this time." A young cultivator said excitedly.

"Yes, once you enter the Five Elements Immortal Sect, it means that your future path is guaranteed. It is even possible to achieve enlightenment as an almighty great master and surpass the island master," another cultivator responded.

The power of the Five Elements Sect is well known. It is the only superpower in the vast sea area. Even island monks like them have heard of it.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as one can enter the Five Elements Immortal Sect and become a member of it, there will be no problem in being treated as a guest of honor by the cultivators in the entire Ten Thousand Star Sea.

"Although the Five Elements Immortal Sect generally only opens its gates once every twenty years, and it is unlikely that you will be able to pass the assessment, the assessment is imminent, and those of you who are qualified can still go and take part."

"It would be great to meet other geniuses of the same age and experience what a true genius is like."

An elderly Taoist drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and gave some advice.

It is a grand event for the Five Elements Immortal Sect to recruit disciples. All the young cultivators in the nearby sea area will be attracted by the news and decide on the candidates who will pass the preliminary assessment.

In the eyes of this Taoist, young people who have not participated in such events cannot be considered true practitioners.

"I heard that the Immortal Sect's assessment is very difficult, so difficult that only one in ten thousand can be selected. I'm afraid that among the young generation in our sea area, there will be no more than three people who can successfully join the Immortal Sect!"

"I wonder how many people in our Difei City have passed the Immortal Sect's assessment since the city was founded. Does anyone know?"

Not far away, someone was curious about this and interrupted to ask.

After all, a restaurant is a place for chatting and talking about everything, so naturally people talk about whatever they think of.

That's why this restaurant has so many guests.

"Very few. The number of immortal sect cultivators recorded is definitely no more than five!"

At this time, an old Taoist priest responded slowly, with a strong smell of alcohol still lingering on his body.

After all, becoming a disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect is a grand event, and any cultivator from the Difei Island who succeeds in becoming a disciple will attract the attention of cultivators from other islands, and will be recorded in the island chronicles and biographies of the great cultivators.

Therefore, as long as the cultivators from Difei Island join the immortal sect, it is impossible for them to remain unknown.

"Ah? It's just so little!"

You know, Difei Island has a history of at least two thousand years from its establishment to the present.

But in such a long history, only a handful of people have passed the assessment of the Five Elements Immortal Sect. The probability is so low that it is outrageous.

"Huh, young? What else do you think?"

"The reason why the Immortal Sect is called the Immortal Sect is that it seeks geniuses who can achieve enlightenment and become immortals, not ordinary people like you and me."

"You should know that the person who recently passed the Immortal Sect's assessment was from two hundred years ago!"

"As for the young generation of our Lung City in recent years, even if they fought their way out of this sea area, they would be blocked by the young monks of the Inner Sea, and then they would be defeated and return empty-handed."

The old Taoist shook his head and sighed. Compared with those islands in the inland sea, Difei Island was still too young.

Whether it is the number of cultivators on the island or their individual strength, there is an insurmountable gap.

Over the past two thousand years, it has been extremely rare for only a few people to pass the assessment and join the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

When he was young, he was also ambitious and had high hopes for the future. He even dreamed of becoming a member of the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

But when he collided with young monks of the same age, he suddenly realized how insignificant he was, just like a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning.
Looking back now, it was all a dream.

An Immortal Sect is an Immortal Sect. How could an ordinary cultivator like him covet it?

"Is this the difficulty of joining the Immortal Sect?"

"But that senior joined the Five Elements Immortal Sect two hundred years ago. Wouldn't he have reached the Nascent Soul stage by now?"

Some people exclaimed and marveled at this.

In the eyes of most ordinary cultivators, it takes fifty years to build a foundation, two hundred years to form a pill, five hundred years to condense an infant, and a thousand years to transform into a god.
This speed of breaking through the realm of cultivation is the most reasonable and normal.

Although this is an 'ordinary' speed of cultivation, judging from the qualifications of the cultivators present, at least 90% of them cannot do it.

Because the difficulty of cultivation is no less than thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, which requires cultivation resources, the surrounding spiritual environment, exercises, scriptures and Taoist techniques, etc.

Each of these is a shackle that restricts an ordinary cultivator from moving forward.

Practicing Buddhism is difficult, as difficult as ascending to heaven!

'snort! ’

Just then, a light hum came from the box on the third floor.

"You are a bunch of ignorant people. How can you guess how powerful the disciples of the Immortal Sect are?"

"A mere Nascent Soul cultivator doesn't even have the qualifications to meet that person!"

"He had already broken through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm decades ago, but you still look at this god-like disciple of the Immortal Sect with the eyes of an ordinary cultivator. Isn't that ridiculous?"

The voice was cold, but sounded young, with the immaturity typical of teenagers, and the words were full of disdain.

As these words fell, the cultivators in the restaurant became dissatisfied with the man's condescending tone, so someone asked:
"Who are you?"

"He is a great man who lived more than 200 years ago. You have never seen him in person. How do you know that he has achieved the Spiritual Transformation Realm?"

"Also, do you really know what you're talking about?"

"There are at least hundreds of thousands of cultivators on our Difei Island, but there are only a mere twenty or so registered cultivators at the Spiritual Transformation Realm!"

"Moreover, the experiences of those seniors in the Spiritualization Stage in achieving enlightenment can all be traced. All of them were powerful figures from eight or nine hundred years ago."

“And now, you actually said that someone broke through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm in just over two hundred years?”

The people downstairs questioned it, thinking that it was the ignorance of a young child. You have to know that practicing Buddhism is not that simple.
The four aspects of body, soul, laws of heaven and earth, and personal state of mind are all indispensable.

Without considering the method of cultivation, for ordinary people to be able to accomplish one of them is already a blessing.

Therefore, even though there are countless powerful people in the True Spirit Realm, that is based on the huge base of cultivators.

A genius who lived two hundred years ago could reach the destination that others would need eight or nine hundred years to reach. Who would believe such words if they had not seen it with their own eyes? You know, since ancient times, the difficulty of practicing has been very difficult. It is only because the spiritual energy of the True Spirit Realm is so strong and there are so many cultivators that it gives the outside world an illusion that practicing is easy.

For an ordinary cultivator, it is already very difficult to collect enough spirit crystals to purchase the skills and scriptures, not to mention that the subsequent practice will require a large amount of practice resources.

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for an ordinary cultivator to break through to the Jindan stage without any chance, let alone the subsequent realms.

"A bunch of frogs in a well, how ridiculous!"

From the room on the third floor, that childish voice was heard again, full of disdain.

"Who are you, sir? Do you dare to show yourself and talk to me?"

Being pointed at and scolded, the faces of the cultivators downstairs naturally looked very unhappy.

"Gu Tianyu! He is the grandson of the senior you mentioned!"

"Now, do you think I am qualified to comment?"

The wing room on the third floor was opened, and a boy of about fifteen or sixteen walked out. His eyes were full of spiritual light, and runes were faintly visible. Despite his young age, he gave people an imposing aura.

The boy's appearance was very handsome, even a little feminine. He was dressed in white, like a handsome young man.

His face was full of pride. Although he looked down on the cultivators downstairs, they were praising his grandfather, so he naturally felt honored.

Many people felt nervous when they saw the young man's bright clothes and extraordinary bearing, knowing that he was the descendant of a great and important person, so they all lowered their heads and dared not look him in the eye.

'Zi! '

At this time, Luo Yan's table was completely unaffected by the surrounding atmosphere. He drank cup after cup of wine, and Zhong Ning was eating the dishes in small bites. Neither of them felt nervous at all.

Zhong Ning even found it difficult to swallow the sea fish fillets because of their toughness, and he curled his lips in disgust.

Not far away, there were also a few monks who did not buy this account. One of them sneered:
"I was wondering who it was? Turns out it's Gu Yangyan's grandson!"

"Then have you ever heard that the reason why your grandfather was able to join the Five Elements Immortal Sect was because he replaced someone else's identity."

"I don't know this. Has your grandfather ever told you?"

This is a man covered in a black robe. He speaks in a sarcastic tone and looks very mysterious. The robe can also block the detection of outsiders' spiritual sense.

He was very mysterious. Just one sentence from him caused the other practitioners to fall silent, and countless eyes glanced over at him.

"You are courting death. How dare you insult my grandfather?"

At this moment, Gu Tianyu's murderous aura rose to the sky, and his shouts echoed throughout the restaurant, even the tables were shaking.

If he was not still young and his strength was only at the late stage of Qi Refining, he would have rushed out at this moment and chopped the man into eight pieces.

"Oh? Are you anxious? Am I not telling the truth?"

"Originally, the place to join the Five Elements Sect was reserved for another young genius, but unfortunately, your Gu family used some means to replace him with someone else."

"That man almost died at the hands of your Gu family."

These words instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the restaurant. An elderly man's face changed, and he took a look at the restaurant door and wanted to slip away quietly.

After all, how could they hear such shocking inside information?
Unfortunately, when the man in black said this, an expressionless old servant in gray appeared at the door of the restaurant, and those who wanted to take the opportunity to leave were instantly blocked back.

"You are speaking ill of my ancestor. Aren't you showing too much disregard for my Gu family?"

The old servant in gray came in and questioned in a hoarse voice.

Although he was hunchbacked and very old, the spiritual energy in his body was very strong, intimidating the cultivators in the restaurant.

"Humph, isn't it?"

"You bribed the disciples of the Five Elements Immortal Sect and replaced the young genius with yours. Did I say a lie?"

The figure hidden in the black robe responded, this time he was tit for tat and refused to give in.

When the people around heard this, they were all shocked and lowered their heads with bitter faces.

They just came here to eat and chat to kill time, but they really didn't want to hear such explosive news.

Now, it is estimated that they themselves will be implicated.
"It seems that you are ready to pick a fight with my Gu family?" said the old servant in gray grimly.

"Since your Gu family dares to do such a thing, it's not okay for others to talk about it?"

"How can there be such a reason in the world?"

"Let alone your Gu family, even the people from the Five Elements Immortal Sect are probably not good people, otherwise they wouldn't go along with people like you!"

The moment these words were spoken, all the cultivators in the restaurant scattered like birds and beasts and shrank to the side, and the dining hall suddenly became empty.

Including the old servant of the Gu family, everyone's face changed drastically.

That's the Five Elements Immortal Sect. How dare this person make such irresponsible remarks?

Hearing this, Luo Yan also looked in the direction of the man in black. The Taoist robe that was strong enough to withstand the spiritual sense of a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm was like paper in front of him and was pierced through in an instant.

Inside was a woman of outstanding appearance, with eyes as bright as crystal, a graceful figure and elegant posture.

Her body glowed faintly, with wisps of starlight interweaving together, like a bright meteor, blooming with divine brilliance.

"The aura of the Great Zhoutian Star Gate"

With just one glance, Luo Yan recognized the origin of the woman in black robe, and deduced from her previous words that she came here for revenge.

Luo Yan had met disciples of the Great Zhoutian Xingchen Sect several times, but they had never actually fought each other.

However, that sect is also very powerful, even not inferior to the Five Elements Sect!

Therefore, the trouble this time is probably not that simple and is expected to cause a big stir.

But this was none of Luo Yan’s business, and he had no intention of meddling in other people’s business.

"Since you have said such shocking words, I am afraid we cannot keep you here today!" said the old servant in gray coldly.

"No, no, no, I have no interest in an old dog like you. Let Gu Yangyan come out. My father is looking for him and is ready to settle the matter with him!"

"I know, he has returned to the island now."
