Chapter 434 - 248: Qingyun True Monarch’s Astonishment
Behind Qingyun True Monarch, Zhao Ming also looked at Qi Chuan with astonishment.
He reached the peak of the Core Formation Late Stage four or five years ago; this speed of cultivation is somewhat terrifying.
"You reached the peak of the Core Formation Late Stage four or five years ago, why didn’t you mention it to me then?" Qingyun True Monarch said.
He suddenly remembered that four or five years ago, he had seen Qi Chuan a few times and had guided him.
However, in recent years, he indeed had not seen him.
He thought that Qi Chuan hadn’t encountered any problems in cultivation, plus he himself was busy, so he didn’t summon Qi Chuan.
Who would have thought that Qi Chuan had already reached the peak of the Core Formation Late Stage?
Upon reaching the peak of the Core Formation Late Stage, isn’t it common to encounter more problems when preparing to break through to the Nascent Soul? Why didn’t Qi Chuan come to me to resolve these problems instead of secluding himself for four or five years, and only now he claims he is ready?
This point, he couldn’t quite understand.
Could it be that Qi Chuan has his own understanding and assurance about breaking through to the Nascent Soul?
"Reporting to the Supreme Elder, when breaking through bottlenecks, I’ve always emphasized mindset and inspiration. I’ve been focusing on these in past years. Personal mindset ultimately relies on oneself, which is why I didn’t contact the Supreme Elder in time. I hope the Supreme Elder forgives me," Qi Chuan explained, cupping his hands.
"Mindset, inspiration? Major breakthroughs do require these. Sometimes a moment of enlightenment can indeed increase the success rate by several folds. But to spend years for these elusive things, that’s rather... never mind, let me first tell you the essential things you need to pay attention to when breaking through to the Nascent Soul," Qingyun True Monarch said with a somewhat helpless expression, as if unsure how to advise Qi Chuan.
Then, he proceeded toward the main seat in the hall, preparing for a thorough explanation to Qi Chuan.
Zhao Ming followed behind Qingyun True Monarch.
However, seeing that his explanation was misunderstood, Qi Chuan once again cupped his hands and explained: "Supreme Elder, in fact, I have already found the mindset and inspiration required for this breakthrough."
Qingyun True Monarch stopped and looked back at Qi Chuan: "Are you saying... you found it?"
"I have found it." Qi Chuan nodded, affirming with his gaze to Qingyun True Monarch.
"You found it?" Qingyun True Monarch frowned: "How can such a thing be simply found? You can’t just spend a few years on it. Did you have an enlightenment moment?"
He could only think along the lines of enlightenment. Otherwise, how could one be confident in finding the mindset and inspiration for a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul just by isolating oneself for a few years?
But enlightenment would explain it.
This remarkable opportunity bestowed by nature may appear in any situation, with no rules and no trace.
"Yes, Supreme Elder, I had an enlightenment moment." Qi Chuan nodded again.
This time, enlightenment had to serve as the excuse.
But honestly, the perfectly amassed inspiration opportunity from using the Hundredfold Critical Strike Golden Finger is much more advanced than mere enlightenment.
Common enlightenment can indeed provide opportunities for inspiration, increasing the success rate of breaking through from the peak of the Core Formation Late Stage to the Nascent Soul Realm by a certain percentage.
However, the increase in success rate cannot surpass my perfect inspiration opportunity.
"Truly enlightened?" Qingyun True Monarch, hearing this, looked at Qi Chuan in great surprise.
Qi Chuan really encountered such a rare opportunity?
However, Qi Chuan wouldn’t need to hide anything meaningful from him during this crucial breakthrough period. This could only harm his journey towards the Nascent Soul, and he believes Qi Chuan understands this principle.
Thus, he believed Qi Chuan.
Behind Qingyun True Monarch, Zhao Ming was not so surprised when he looked at Qi Chuan.
Because, in his mind, Qi Chuan, with such a terrifying talent, naturally had a greater chance of experiencing enlightenment than ordinary cultivators.
Sometimes he even thought that Qi Chuan’s frequent enlightenment seemed more normal compared to his terrifying cultivation speed; the latter seemed even more outrageous.
"Since you’ve truly been enlightened and have considerable confidence to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, I won’t hinder you much on this matter. Next, I’ll provide you with some guidance on breaking through to the Nascent Soul, and then offer you a high-tier spiritual vein location. I hope you truly succeed,"
Qingyun True Monarch said as he sat down in the high chair at the head of the hall, speaking to Qi Chuan.
He decided to believe Qi Chuan and do as Qi Chuan wished.
Breaking through successfully or failing to do so ultimately depends on Qi Chuan himself.
If successful, the resources and spiritual objects he has diverted to Qi Chuan over the years will have paid off.
If he fails, it’s a pity, but he won’t be too disappointed.
Because often, training a Nascent Soul True Monarch in a major sect does not happen smoothly.
In the past, before cultivating him, the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect had several Nascent Soul seeds they valued greatly, but they failed, and only he succeeded in the end.
"Thank you, Supreme Elder. Qi Chuan will listen intently," Qi Chuan said, cupping his hands and expressing his earnest gratitude to Qingyun True Monarch.
Although he is now eager to break through to the Nascent Soul, the perfect inspiration opportunity accumulated from the Hundredfold Critical Strike won’t be lost, so even waiting a bit longer is fine.
Subsequently, Qingyun True Monarch began explaining a multitude of critical matters to be mindful of when breaking through to the Nascent Soul.
Zhao Ming stood beside Qingyun True Monarch, listening with great interest. The opportunity to hear Qingyun True Monarch explain breaking through to the Nascent Soul up close was incredibly rare, even for him, despite being the sect leader.
This explanation lasted for an entire hour.
Afterward, Zhao Ming came back to his senses, licking his lips as if he wanted more.
In the great hall, Qi Chuan also stood up and cupped his hands toward Qingyun True Monarch, expressing sincere gratitude: "Thank you, Supreme Elder, for explaining the Nascent Soul matters. I feel even more confident about breaking through to the Nascent Soul."
Qingyun True Monarch’s advice indeed gave him some gains.
Some of the insights even shared commonality with those included in his inspiration opportunity, showing that Qingyun True Monarch indeed provided him with valuable guidance.
Additionally, after listening to Qingyun True Monarch’s explanations, Qi Chuan was now more familiar with the process of breaking through to the Nascent Soul, making the next stage more organized and methodical.
"Alright, the explanation is complete, it’s time to provide you with the high-tier spiritual vein location," Qingyun True Monarch stood up without delaying any further.
Qi Chuan, of course, expressed his thanks once more.
Following this, Qingyun True Monarch left the Myriad Flowers Hall, leading Qi Chuan as the two transformed into escape lights and departed.
Zhao Ming also stepped out from the hall, looking up at the escape lights of Qingyun True Monarch and Qi Chuan departing, his gaze full of envy.
"Who would have thought Junior Brother Qi Chuan is really going to attempt the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm. I wonder what realm Junior Brother Qi Chuan will be in when he returns, whether he will truly enter the Nascent Soul True Monarch Realm and become the second Supreme Elder of the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect?"
Zhao Ming mused imaginatively to himself.
To be honest, he also hopes in his heart that Qi Chuan can succeed in breaking through.
Once Qi Chuan succeeds, the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect, with two Nascent Soul True Monarchs, will usher in a much more prosperous future, greatly benefiting everyone in the sect, including all Core Formation True Masters, stewards, disciples, and more, himself included.
