Cultivating to Become a Great Celestial

Xiao Mei went into seclusion and did not know about this matter.

Fang Dingyuan originally wanted to go along with them, but because of his low cultivation, and because he has some comprehension of their Formation Diagram, the elders were not keen in allowing him to take risks with them.

Su Tingyun doesn’t know much about the topography of their cultivation world, so she currently doesn’t know where the Qilian Mountains are. But seeing Fang Dingyuan look like he has a lot of worries in his mind, it’s still clear to her that it’s a place where dangers lurk on every side. But it is about the Sect inheritance, and everyone will give it everything they’ve got.

Those elders have been away for ten days, and nobody knows exactly where they are now.

She has always had a good impression of the Array Hall, and now she naturally respects it even more. Su Tingyun is also very relieved that Xiao Mei has met such Sect teachers.

Su Tingyun didn’t stay in the Qiankun Array Hall for too long. When she’s about to leave, she invites Du Xizhi. Then, the three of them wear the magic device to change their appearance, and proceed to the Trial Island wearing different faces. The others using the Disguising Device change into ordinary and commonplace faces. After Su Tingyun puts on the mask, she actually becomes a lot more beautiful, and it feels like she’s finally approaching the average appearance of female cultivators in the realm of cultivation.

The last time they went out, they were discovered because their exit position from the seal was not good. In addition, the seal contains a tremendous amount of power. Bai Chengyu wasted a lot of his strength to keep the two of them from getting hurt. They emerged too suddenly, and before they could hide themselves, they just happened to run into the Demon Venerable of the Moon Worship Cult.

But everyone has made ample preparations this time, and they have Immortal Devices to hide themselves. Of course, they would not be discovered easily. However, because there are people from the upper realm near the Kunlun Divine Tree, they can’t even think to put down their guard and get too close.

In any case, the branches hanging down from the Divine Tree are everywhere. Su Tingyun stands under a branch that is as far from the center as possible. Gently tugging down this branch, she calls out to the Heart of the Divine Tree twice using a soul transmission.

In a moment, she gets a response.

The Divine Tree’s Heart lighty hits Su Tingyun twice with the branches. She’s wearing a mask, but she is still easily recognized by the Heart.

Su Tingyun tells Su Lijiang about Du Xizhi. As for the jade key, she won’t tell him about that for the time being. After all, it belongs to Xiao Mei. And Su Lijiang is a different man now. If he knows that the key exists, what would he do? Su Tingyun has no idea.

—

Du Xizhi…

Muttering the name in his mouth, Su Lijiang feels that his memory is very fuzzy.

Su Lijiang, he has forgotten that he still has this apprentice.

Back then, his revered master was firm when he said that Su Lijiang must guide his disciples with all his heart. Later, his so-called Master, and this Master’s care for him, all turned out to be just an abominable plot.

For the next decade, he was suppressed every day, his primordial spirit was tormented. Unable to control his own body, he watched the other do all those evil things, but he was powerless to resist. So he could only repress his own emotions, hide himself, and wait for the best opportunity.

Living in pain and hatred back then, he had long forgotten the disciples he was teaching.

He used to ask them to refine their hearts, and he himself refined his own. Had he not obtained a level of epiphany and transformation that made his will stronger than before, perhaps his soul would have long been completely devoured and annihilated by Gu Fengyang.

Su Lijiang is in the center of the Kunlun Divine Tree, but the Tree itself has already recognized him as master. Through the Divine Tree, he can see the people outside, including Du Xizhi.

The boy’s appearance in his memory has turned blurry. And now he has grown tall. Carrying a wide sword, he stands quietly beside Su Tingyun. There is a peculiar brilliance in his eyes.

This boy has kept persevering, kept waiting.

Su Lijiang slightly lowers his eyes, and when he raises them up again, he says, “Since this is my last apprentice, I will guide him with all my heart.”
