One month flies by in a snap.
[Ling Yu has broken through to the realm of returning to the virtual world, and his strength has broken through to the next level. Congratulations to the host for gaining the first level of cultivation]
Above Tianxuan Holy Land, Lu Ming, who was sleeping soundly on the Grand Master's chair, was awakened by a sudden notification sound from the system.
"A month has passed before we can break through to the Void Return Realm. This is too slow."
[Remind the host, taking Ling Yu out for training will help you improve faster]
"Right."
After saying that, he disappeared along with the master's chair.
The secret realm of cultivation.
Ling Yu, who had just completed his breakthrough, stood up and felt the powerful force in his body. The smile on his lips showed that he was quite satisfied in his heart.
"Not bad, I have broken through to the realm of returning to the virtual world in one month. Keep working hard and I will be one step closer to going home."
Lu Ming's figure appeared in front of Ling Yu out of thin air.
"Brother, you are finally here. I have already broken through to the realm of returning to the virtual world."
"I'm here to take you out to practice. Otherwise, it would be too slow and boring to stay in this secret realm to practice."
"Great, I can finally go out. I'll go ask Master for instructions."
As he spoke, Ling Yu was about to activate the token, but suddenly remembered something and shouted towards the canyon not far away: "Brother, can you come here?"
This move left Lu Ming speechless. Good fellow, are you going to interrupt your junior brother's practice like this? What if you reach a critical moment in your cultivation, will this cause you to go crazy?
Fortunately, Ye Wudao happened to have just finished his training, so he rushed over immediately when he heard Ling Yu's call.
"Junior brother, why did you ask me to come here?"
"Senior brother, I have to go out for training. I wanted to say goodbye to you specifically."
"Experience? Master arranged it?"
"No, it was arranged by my elder brother."
Ling Yu pointed to Lu Ming as he spoke.
"I was promoted from the fifth level of the Yuan Dan Realm to the ninth level of the Yuan Dan Realm in one month. My talents are really good. It's a pity that most of the talents are sealed. Otherwise, it would be better."
Lu Ming looked at Ye Wudao and nodded to himself.
"Senior, what do you mean by seal?" After hearing Lu Ming's words, Ye Wudao asked in confusion.
Ling Yu also put on a curious expression.
"It's useless to tell you now. You will know when the time comes. Practice hard. The road ahead will be longer than you think. Xiaoyu, let's go."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ming took Ling Yu and disappeared into the secret realm.
Holy Lord Temple.
"Experience? Are you sure?"
Xuanyuan Shengtian was also slightly surprised after hearing Ling Yu's idea of going out to practice.
"Yes, Master, my disciple has returned to the realm of virtual reality. He is very strong. You don't have to worry."
The confidence revealed in these words almost infected Xuanyuan Shengtian.
"Returning to the Void Realm? So fast," Xuanyuan Shengtian couldn't believe it, and then he checked that it was indeed the Void Returning Realm, and continued: "Since you want to go to the Void Returning Realm, let me arrange a protector for you."
"No need, Master, I have a protector."
"Tsk, that's right. I'm confused." Xuanyuan Shengtian slapped his forehead and said, "But how strong is your protector? Now that you are the divine son of Tianxuan Holy Land, you must ensure that nothing goes wrong. If you are not strong enough, then ..."
"Master, what's that? Why didn't you say anything? My elder brother is very strong, don't worry." Ling Yu asked curiously when he saw that his master suddenly stopped talking.
"Okay, I believe your guardian strength must be sufficient, so go and practice it quickly, don't delay."
Xuanyuan Shengtian spoke again, but his voice was a little trembling than before.
"Goodbye, Master." After saying goodbye, Ling Yu left the Holy Lord's Hall, leaving only Xuanyuan Shengtian, who was still trembling slightly and with cold sweat on his forehead.
"Hiss! How powerful is Xiaoyu's protector? They suppressed me without even seeing me. Wouldn't this kill me in an instant?"
Thinking of what he had just experienced, Xuanyuan Shengtian was frightened.
That's right, just when he was worried that Ling Yu's protector was not strong enough, Lu Ming, who was above the Holy Lord Temple, let out a trace of his aura and locked onto Xuanyuan Shengtian, allowing him to experience the horror of facing death.
"Half-step to the Imperial Realm? But can half-step to the Imperial Realm really be achieved? Could it be...the Imperial Realm!"
Lu Ming didn't care how many realms Xuanyuan Shengtian had underestimated him. At this moment, he had brought Ling Yu to the Central Territory.
"Brother, why don't we start training in the Eastern Region? Why come directly to the Central Region?"
The two of them stood on the clouds, overlooking the middle territory below their feet. Ling Yu asked doubtfully.
"There are many strong people here. How about it? Are you starting to get excited?"
Lu Ming explained.
"So where do we start?"
"It's not us, it's you. Let's start with the list of geniuses. Let's see what the level of the monks here is. By the way, let's be number one among the younger generation."
"This is fun, brother, let's start quickly, I can't wait." Ling Yu geared up and said.
"Well, let's walk."
Then Lu Ming thought, and the two of them came to a high tower.
And this tower is the power that Dao Tiansheng belongs to, and it is also the top power in the Central Region - Tianji Tower.
"Tianji Tower? Can you deduce the secret?" Ling Yu looked at the plaque on the tower with the three characters "Tianji Tower" and couldn't help but ask.
"It should be possible, but I don't know how much it can be calculated. You think so, old man." Lu Ming looked at the top of the tower and said.
Then an old man with white beard and hair appeared from the void on the top floor. He was the Taoist born master, Tianji Taoist Li Xuanji.
Seeing that he had been discovered, Li Xuanji calmly appeared in front of Lu Ming and the others.
"It seems that senior is the variable." After taking a deep look at Lu Ming, Li Xuanji said slowly, with a rather respectful tone.
"You're pretty smart." Lu Ming replied casually.
"Brother, what were you talking about to this old man?"
Ling Yu asked curiously.
"Nothing, nothing important."
"The old man dares to ask, does the senior think it's not important because he doesn't intend to intervene?"
"I really don't intend to interfere." Lu Ming raised the corners of his mouth as he spoke, but Li Xuanji didn't notice anything wrong.
"Thank you for informing me, senior. The old man will leave first." Li Xuanji said and was about to leave.
But Lu Ming had just arrived and didn't know much about the Tianji Building. How could he miss the encyclopedia that was sent to him.
"Wait a minute, I heard that you have a genius list?"
"Senior, that's right."
"Tell us about it."
"Okay senior, the Tianjiao List is a list where we know the details of the major forces and the younger generation among the casual cultivators and rank their strength." Li Xuanji said, with a hint of pride in his words.
"Is your ranking reliable?" Lu Ming asked without any subtlety.
"Senior, I am not bragging as an old man. Since the list was launched, we have arranged a month every year for those who are not satisfied with the ranking to challenge those on the list.
Although those who doubt the list challenge those on the list every year, the results have never differed from the rankings on the list. "
"Oh? Really? Then the difference appears today."
Lu Ming said with a playful smile.
