Chen Yuanji smiled, stroked his beard, and looked at Lu Sheng.
This apprentice gave him quite a surprise. Although he didn't get a more impressive ranking, it was really not easy for him to enter the top ten in the competition with his apprentice's qualifications.
I heard from others that my disciple stayed behind closed doors all day long and was obviously a cultivator.
Otherwise, just by some chance, people will never make such great progress. The road depends entirely on oneself.
After all the rewards were distributed, the elders gave a few words of encouragement to the disciples one by one, and the competition was over.
Just as Lu Sheng was about to turn around, the jade talisman in his pocket trembled slightly. With a quick glance, he stopped and stood still.
Seeing that everyone had left, there were very few people on the huge Xuanyue Platform, and the elders were leaving the place in a hurry, he felt someone tap him on his shoulder.
Turning around, he saw his master looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Is your disciple okay these years?"
"Master, everything is fine recently, disciple."
Lu Sheng raised his hands and bowed, his voice gentle.
Afterwards, Chen Yuanji asked his apprentice if he had any confusion in his practice, and then affirmed Lu Sheng's performance in this competition.
Finally, the master gave him a token and said that it was a reward for him. With this token, he could go to the sect's Kung Fu pavilion to choose a foundation-building level Kung Fu for free.
Lu Sheng was a little stunned. He was only in the Qi training stage and was so far away from the foundation building stage. Was it too early for the master to give him something like this so early?
However, he had long wanted to visit the sect's Kung Fu pavilion, and he would naturally not refuse the master's kindness.
The master and apprentice talked for a long time, and Chen Yuanji told him a lot of things to pay attention to in cultivation, and even talked about a lot of realm knowledge in the foundation building period.
After a conversation, Lu Sheng benefited a lot.
"Disciple, now that you have entered the twelfth level of Qi training, your future journey will depend on you. As a teacher, I can only wish you a broad and long path."
Chen Yuanji left these words before leaving.
Watching the golden light leave, Lu Sheng took out his silver plate and stepped on it. The golden light shone brightly under his feet, and he rushed into the sky, turning into a ray of golden light and flying into the distance.
Returning to his quiet room, he poured a lot of the best spiritual enhancement pill powder into his mouth. The countless medicinal powers were being digested by him very quickly, turning into wisps of pure spiritual energy.
The night passed.
The next day, there was a knock on his courtyard door.
Lu Sheng opened the door and found an old man with gray hair and a middle-aged man looking at him with smiles on their faces.
He knew that middle-aged man. When he first joined the sect, this kid came to him to buy the Spirit-Enhancing Pill. In the next few times, when he saw that this man was good, he gave the Spirit-Enhancing Pill to him to sell.
Although this person may be a little greedy, but if the water is clear, there will be no fish. In order to save time, it doesn't hurt to give this small profit.
As for this old man, Lu Sheng felt as if he had seen him before somewhere. After taking a closer look, he really recognized the old man's wrinkled brows and withered facial features.
Isn't this Zhang Meng, Senior Brother Zhang, who was so high-spirited in the competition arena back then?
Lu Sheng used his spiritual sense to scan the area and found that this person's strength was only at the eleventh level of Qi training, and it took more than thirty years to break through two levels.
This person's qualifications were almost the same as mine. I didn't expect that the realm after the Qi training period would be so difficult.
With a slight sigh, Lu Sheng's anxious heart gradually calmed down. It turned out that he was not the only one like this.
Thinking about it this way, he has broken through nine small realms in more than thirty years, which is really impressive.
In fact, it cannot be said that the realms and levels in the early and middle stages of Qi training are generally easy to break through.
But once you reach the later stage, it becomes increasingly difficult to break through that realm. It is even more difficult to break through without a large amount of resources and thorough understanding.
Putting away his thoughts, Lu Sheng put his hands behind his back and asked lightly:
"Junior Brother Zhang, why do you come to see me?"
Zhang Meng and the middle-aged man's faces were as white as paper. The spiritual thoughts and spiritual pressure of the man just now were too powerful for them.
They felt that they could not survive even one move in the hands of this senior brother.
The middle-aged man raised his head with a flattering smile, his eyes a little complicated. Thirty years ago, the gap between this man and himself was not that big, but now the gap is huge!
Brother Seventh Brother Lu of Dabi!
Now this Senior Brother Lu is the pride of their inner sect, and he stepped in by forcefully stepping on some core disciples.
Not only did this middle-aged man's emotions fluctuate, but even Zhang Meng couldn't control his emotions.
He knew that this Senior Brother Lu was five realms different from him in the past, but now things have changed.
"Senior Brother Lu, when do you plan to move to Tianzhu Peak?"
Zhang Meng's straight waist bent down, and his voice was no longer as cheerful as before, but full of hoarseness.
"Yes, senior brother, when will you go, senior brother Zhang and I can also help you."
"After all, there are some tasks that you can't do in person. Senior Brother Zhang and I are very agile, so you can do whatever you want when the time comes."
The middle-aged man said with enthusiasm.
Hearing this, Lu Sheng understood in his heart that these two people wanted to be his followers. On the one hand, they wanted to get close to him, and on the other hand, they wanted to use the rich spiritual energy on Tianzhu Peak to practice well.
Although Zhang Meng is a descendant of Elder Zhang, he is not taken seriously. What's more, on the main peak of the family, the place with the strongest spiritual energy is the elder's cave at the top.
But only the elders can stay in that place. No one else, not even his own grandson, can come up without being summoned.
But Tianzhu Peak is different. There are countless remaining veins connected in the peak. There is no major cultivator to absorb the spiritual energy. There are only twenty or thirty Qi-training monks who have opened caves on it. The place with rich spiritual energy can be compared to some elders' caves.
It was really a training ground that countless disciples dreamed of, but unfortunately, only core disciples could live there.
He had defeated several core disciples, and one of them was ranked seventh among the core disciples. Naturally, he moved to Tianzhu Peak and occupied that person's cave.
It is not difficult to understand why Zhang Meng and the others want to get close to him.
Too bad they don't deserve it.
"Hahaha, two junior brothers, senior brother me, Xijing, please come back."
Lu Sheng had a smile on his face and declined them with a good attitude.
Hearing this sentence, Zhang Meng and the two did not know what their senior brother meant.
It's a pity that the two of them felt bitter in their hearts. All the spiritual stones in their hands were used to buy cultivation elixirs, and there were not many spiritual stones left in their bodies.
"Then Senior Brother, Senior Brother Zhang and I will take our leave and excuse you for disturbing us."
The middle-aged man bowed and saluted with a smile on his face.
Nodding slightly, Lu Sheng gently closed the door.
Looking at the wooden door with restrained light, the two of them felt a little downcast.
Zhang Meng's voice was a little gloomy:
"If things don't get done, just tell me what to do."
"Alas! Senior brother, there's nothing I can do about this. Senior Brother Lu's nature is like this. Otherwise, I think it's better to forget it."
Spreading his hands, the middle-aged man cried helplessly.
"Can this be calculated?"
With a silent sigh in his heart, Zhang Meng's eyes were dull.
