This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome Chapter 771 - It'd be Nice to have a System of Some Kind

Chapter 771: It’d be Nice to have a System of Some Kind

“No.”

Xuanyangzi shook his head, yet he looked as if he could hardly contain his excitement.

He was finally about to learn how he can make further breakthroughs.

Throughout the ages, the strongest cultivators in the Holy Sun Continent could only reach the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm. From there, their path of cultivation seemed to be cut; they couldn’t go any further in their cultivation at that point.

The situation was so severe that both the sectmasters of the Immemorial Path and those who had already reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm spent ages trying to forge a path, but none of them had ever succeeded.

Xuanyangzi lowered his head and bowed solemnly at Lu Xuan. He said, “Please give us your guidance, Mr. Lu!”

All of the elders present followed suit, bowing solemnly to him as they said, “Please give us your guidance, Mr. Lu!”

Lu Xuan elaborated, “In that case, I shall continue. The next level is called the Consolidation Realm. The only way to reach it is to conjure the three flowers, which means being able to conjure the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence. The three flowers are then consolidated into a single ent.i.ty, hence the name of the next level comes from.”

“We need to first conjure the three flowers?” Xuanyangzi was stunned. “No wonder we haven’t been able to find ways of training to the next level. We don’t know how long we’ve been training or how profound our powers become over time.”

In the Holy Sun Continent, the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence was said useful but only a mere legend. Many people thought it had to be some kind of special spell.

This fact was proven even further when Lu Xuan conjured the Auric Flower and went about overwhelming whoever he fought.

The Three Flowers at One’s Prominence was some kind of very powerful spell.

However, n.o.body expected the Three Flower at One’s Prominence spell to have been the door leading to the next realm.

Lu Xuan elaborated further, “Indeed. Without conjuring the three flowers, one could train for over a thousand years more and still wouldn’t be able to make it to the next level.”

Such theories of cultivation were hardly considered a secret among the upper-cla.s.s world. It wasn’t even considered a secret for some powerful middle-cla.s.s societies.

It was only deemed a secret to those from the Holy Sun Continent; despite standing above the rest of the middle-cla.s.s worlds, they still had yet to be truly formidable.

When Lu Xuan unveiled that secret, he believed that given the history and resources available in that world, it wouldn’t take long for those at the Holy Sun Continent to see formidable ones at Consolidation Realm emerging. From there, the continent could become a top-notch middle-cla.s.s world.

In the system of cultivation, there was a realm between the Divine Transformation Realm and the Consolidation Realm, which was called the Demi-Consolidation Realm. Many people believed that it was on a completely different level, especially with the Three Flowers at One’s Prominence.

In the realm of Three Flowers at One’s Prominence, one needed to conjure the Auric Flower, the Essence Flower, and the Spirit Flower. When the three flowers melded into a single ent.i.ty, that would have led to the consolidation of one’s aura, essence, and spirit. As a result, that person would reach the Consolidation Realm.

Xuanyangzi bowed and asked again, “Please teach us how to conjure the three flowers! We know that it is an absurd request. We know you might have to share some forbidden secrets to teach us. Still, we hope that you will still tell us how to do it.”

All the others looked at Lu Xuan with yearning looks in their eyes. The path was right before their eyes, yet they were only a single step away.

Despite having learned how to make a breakthrough into the next realm, they wouldn’t have found any viable even if they searched for hundreds to even thousands of years if n.o.body taught them how to conjure the three flowers. The only ones who could continue the search were the future generations once the previous one pa.s.sed.

If Lu Xuan were willing to teach them, that would’ve absolutely saved them hundreds to thousands of years of time.

Xuanyangzi said, “Even if it makes us broke, we’re willing to part with whatever we have if it means we can learn how to conjure the three flowers! Please, just name your price, Mr. Lu! Even if it means handing over all of the wealth that we had acc.u.mulated over thousands of years, we would be fully willing to do so, Mr. Lu!”

The high-ranking elders of the Immemorial Path were all stunned by what Xuanyangzi just said, but all of them nodded furiously. That was more than because someone as highly esteemed as Xuanyangzi, who was widely respected throughout the years, was saying such a thing. It was also because while what Xuanyangzi said was extremely shocking to hear, he essentially said what they were all thinking.

It was eventually wealth, and cultivators valued whatever they possessed on them more than anything else.

They were absolutely willing to trade all of their wealth just to learn how to keep moving forward.

Lu Xuan mulled over it and replied, “I’m willing to teach you all how to conjure the three flowers, but you would need to be at least at the pinnacle of Divine Transformation Realm if you want to move even further along the path.”

One needed to conjure the three flowers to reach the Consolidation Realm, and the only ones who could conjure them were those who were already at the pinnacle of the Divine Transformation Realm.

Being at the pinnacle of the Divine Transformation Realm meant that someone had a strong foundation on them. That also meant that they could potentially make it to the next step.

“The pinnacle of Divine Transformation Realm, huh?”

The eyes of many high-ranking elders of the sect lit up. While any of them had yet to reach that level, the existence of the Heaven Enhancement Pill meant that there was still hope for them.

Xuanyangzi bowed and said with sincerity, “Thank you, Mr. Lu”

He was being thoroughly genuine.

Lu Xuan replied, “You flatter me, friend.”

“To be honest, this was the area that my ancestor had fought for before. You all are of the orthodoxy that my ancestor established. Furthermore, this isn’t actually some kind of incredible secret to us. Each clan and sect had different ways of moving forward and conjuring the three flowers, but I still know of some methods that might come in handy.”

Lu Xuan didn’t think this method was that incredible. Because of their connection to his ancestor, he was fully willing to help them.

The sacred ancestor and the sacred ones throughout the ages fought their hardest for the world’s sake. Just reading the information alone was enough to leave Lu Xuan deeply moved.

Furthermore, he had left Haotian with a human network consisting of many supporters.

Because of everything that Lu Xuan had given him, Haotian already got himself plenty of potential supporters before he even got to adulthood.

The boy could be said to have been born at the finish line of a lot of people’s lives.

That kind of luck would’ve made anyone jealous, but it seemed more like a typical backstory that a protagonist of any story would’ve had—both parents are dead and the entire family is lost and ended up lucky enough to join some major clan or sect before they walked the path to greatness. The protagonist would also get plenty of help from one’s seniors and some hermit pa.s.sing down techniques along the way.

Lu Xuan wore a peculiar expression, somehow seeing himself as the kind of hermit that was usually depicted in novels—some kind of old man residing in the woods.

‘Wait, does that mean I’m not the main character of this story, then?’

He couldn’t help but repeat that thought in his mind. No old man had ever emerged to help him in his time of need.

He had been through countless trials and tribulations in life, surviving through all of them before he finally reached where he was in his past life.

‘It would’ve been great if someone would just give me a system or something.’

He had thought about that back in his past life, yet it was only when he finally reached the pinnacle that he realized how childish he had been. The thought caused him to chuckle for a bit.

Haotian had what Lu Xuan never had back then. This fact felt oddly comforting to him.

Xuanyangzi then bowed solemnly to Lu Xuan again as he said, “While this may not seem like much to you, friend, it is still important to all of us. Thank you so much for your generosity toward us.”

The fighters of the sect then added, “Thank you, friend.”
