My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 587 Situation
Mountain courtyard

Shen Changchuan paid his respects to You Longzi.

Upon seeing Shen Changchuan, You Longzi immediately offered a suggestion.

"The path to immortality is fraught with peril. Sometimes, those who want to harm you are not only enemies with whom you have direct conflicts of interest, but also people who simply dislike you, or people you may have offended without even realizing it. These people could bring you to the brink of death!"

"From now on, we must be as careful as possible."

Looking at Shen Changchuan, who was respectfully bowing with clasped hands, You Longzi gently offered his advice.

Regarding this most outstanding disciple under his tutelage...

You Longzi was extremely satisfied.

Especially after sensing that his aura had reached the peak of the mid-stage of the eighth level!

You Longzi even felt a little ashamed.

It's a good thing he was worried about it back then.

If Shen Changchuan cannot raise his cultivation to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage in a short period of time,
It is highly likely that they will achieve nothing in the Immortal Sect Grand Competition.

But now,
In just four or five years, he had already reached the peak of the mid-stage of the eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm.

Moreover, his aura revealed an extremely solid foundation, without the slightest hint of superficiality.

Such performance
How could it be impossible to reach the ninth level of the Nascent Soul realm after several years?
No wonder it was able to grow up even in such a dilapidated little world as the Southern Region.

With an ample supply of cultivation resources

Shen Changchuan's performance

Far surpassing the peerless geniuses of the Immortal Sect!

With the gap in cultivation level being bridged, and in addition, You Longzi gained some understanding of his disciples' methods.

He was certain,

As the Immortal Sect Grand Competition approaches
It should have a more than 90% chance of making it into the top 100!
Yes,

It's in the top 100!
Although You Longzi also hoped that Shen Changchuan could enter the top fifty of the Immortal Sect Competition and obtain the sect's reward of advancing to the Divine Travel Realm.

But this is extremely difficult in reality!
Especially recently,
After learning about the performance of the top geniuses in the other major regions.

This has led to a significant decrease in expectations for Shen Changchuan's performance.

The progress Shen Changchuan has shown now...
It truly rekindled hope in his heart!
But even so,

You Longzi could only dream that Shen Changchuan could enter the top 100.

no way,
This is, after all, a grand competition between the top powers of several major regions.

The purpose of this grand competition is not merely to provide an opportunity for their own immortal sect's rising stars.
The higher-ups are even preparing to use this opportunity to communicate and probe with the top hegemonic forces in the surrounding major regions, and try to form an alliance with them to jointly deal with the Heavenly Demon Sect of the Western Heaven Region.

There are many things involved behind this.

therefore,

Such a grand event,
It can be said that it gathers most of the most outstanding talents in the Southeast Continent!
Shen Changchuan has only been honing his skills on the path of cultivation for twenty or thirty years. How could he compare to those peerless geniuses who have accumulated decades or even nearly a hundred years of experience?
Of course,
Although entering the top 100 of the Immortal Sect Competition will not grant the Immortal Sect the opportunity to reach the Divine Travel Realm as a reward.

But You Longzi didn't care about this.

If Shen Changchuan can truly advance to the top 100, given his demonstrated achievements,
Enough to send You Longzi to the Immortal Sect

Use the ancestor's connections and legacy to directly exchange for an opportunity to advance to the Divine Ascension Realm!
This is not a difficult task.

Shen Changchuan was unaware of the many thoughts in You Longzi's mind.

At this time, he

He looked somewhat taken aback.

because,

He hadn't yet told his master about his attack on him by Wan Zunli, the old ghost of the Corpse Refining Sect, halfway through his journey. And his master's words of advice...

It seems like a reminder given after knowing what happened to them?
"Master, you know?"

"What do you know?"

You Longzi was slightly taken aback by Shen Changchuan's words.

In the midst of their bewildered stares,

Shen Changchuan was the first to speak and explain.
He recounted the attack he had encountered during his journey by Wan Zunli, the patriarch of the Corpse Refining Sect.

"court death!"

Upon learning that Shen Changchuan had suffered such an accident, You Longzi lost his usual composure, which remained unchanged even in the face of a collapsing mountain.

His face was contorted with rage, and a chilling killing intent flashed in his eyes.
He slammed his hand hard on the table next to him, and with a muffled thud, a powerful, suppressed force surged and instantly shattered the entire chair!
Shen Changchuan had never seen his master so angry.

In his memory, his master was generally someone who never showed his emotions.

But right now,
This clearly shattered his previous fixed perceptions.

The terrifying, oppressive aura of fury emanating from him made it difficult for him to breathe.

"That's unreasonable!"

"That old dog is so shameless?!"

"Changchuan, don't worry, I'll go and capture that old dog right now and give you an explanation!"

You Longzi gritted his teeth.
A chilling killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Obviously,

What Wan Zunli did had already exceeded his tolerance!

And his anger,
It wasn't just a show; it was genuine anger from the bottom of my heart!
This anger,
There was even a hint of embarrassment and anger in it.

This fueled You Longzi's ruthlessness; he was determined to make that old dog pay with his life to cleanse him!

You Longzi had no choice but to react in this way.

To know,
Several years ago, when that old dog attacked Shen Changchuan outside Jue Tian Valley, he severely injured him.

At that time, if he had been determined, he was absolutely certain he could have spared the old dog's life.
But in the end,
He still let the other party go.

Because he thought it best for Shen Changchuan to deal with that person in the future, so as not to let him fall into a mental demon.

At the same time, it can also give Shen Changchuan some pressure and motivation.

So after much consideration, they let the other party get away.

However, You Longzi never expected that...
After that incident, that old dog from the Corpse Refining Sect...
Despite the life-threatening situation he posed, he brazenly attacked Shen Changchuan, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, for the second time, despite being a Divine Travel Realm expert!
You Longzi was unaware that Wan Zunli had made contact with the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect and had already decided to leave the Southern Yue region and join the Heavenly Demon Sect after completing the assassination mission.

Then there's no need to worry about his threats anymore.

But whatever the reason
This is practically equivalent to throwing his dignity, You Longzi's, on the ground and then stomping on it!
and,

This sneak attack,

It's not just a matter of him losing face.

Most importantly,
It almost cost Shen Changchuan his life!

Thinking about this,
You Longzi couldn't help but glance at Shen Changchuan in front of him, and a sense of relief rose in his heart.

As his most outstanding disciple, Shen Changchuan was the most important disciple on whom he placed high hopes!
Even deep down, he had a thought.
That is, if the situation worsens in the future, and he fails to break through to the Profound Core Realm,

Then I can pass on my mantle to Shen Changchuan.
Let Shen Changchuan carry on the Longxiao Sect.

This also ensured that his other worthless disciples would have some place to belong and rely on after he left!
But all of this,
That old dog, Wan Zunli, almost ruined it!
