4 years later.
Tian Yongheng opened his eyes and checked his status panel.
[Name: Tian Yongheng]
[Race: Mortal]
[Lifespan: 76/1655]
[Cultivation: Fourth Stage of Acquired Realm]
[Constitution: Five-Elemental Divine Spiritual Physique]
[Bloodline: Jade Pure Bloodline (Descendant of the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning)]
[Innate Talent(s): Sword Heart, Primordial Meridians and Primordial Bones]
[Affiliation(s): Eternal Peak, Sword Seeking Sect]
[Occupation(s): Founder of the Eternal Peak, Expert behind the Sword Seeking Sect]
[Title(s): Master of Eternal Peak]
[Cultivation Technique(s): Divine Scripture of the Primordial Beginning]
Seeing the Affiliation and Occupation sections, he was slightly stunned.
This works too?
However, at the same time, he also felt that these things weren’t of much use to have them in his status panel.
"System, can’t you just only show important things such as lifespan and not affiliations, occupations, titles and cultivation techniques?" He bluntly asked, looking at the floating status panel.
[Sure. These sections have now been hidden, and the host can access them whenever he wants.]
"Alright, now show me my detailed status panel without all the unnecessary sections."
[Name: Tian Yongheng]
[Race: Mortal, Human]
[Lifespan: 76/1655]
[Cultivation: Fourth Stage of Acquired Realm]
[Constitution: Five-Elemental Divine Spiritual Physique]
[Bloodline: Jade Pure Bloodline (Descendant of the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning)]
[Innate Talent(s): Sword Heart, Primordial Meridians and Primordial Bones]
"Much better."
Seeing his renewed status panel, he nodded slightly.
"I’m already 76 years old, huh? Time sure flies when you’re immersed in cultivation. I would’ve already been considered an old man back on earth at this age..." He muttered under his breath.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but remember his past life and wonder about the people he knew, his parents, sister and friends.
Did they also reincarnate?
That should most likely be the case, but I doubt they’d also recall the memories of their past life.
There’s no point thinking about that right now. I just hope that they can live their next lives comfortably.
He sighed deeply as he opened his system mails.
[Your disciple, Yan Jingfei, has entered seclusion to breakthrough. Her cultivation has increased greatly.]
[Your good friend, Gao Fusheng, was attacked by a demonic cultivator.]×220
[Your good friend, Gao Fusheng, was attacked by a demonic cultivator and was severely injured. Fortunately, a mighty figure saved him.]
[Your good friend, Yan Guo, was attacked by a demon beast.]×593
[Your good friend, Yan Guo, has entered seclusion to breakthrough. His cultivation has increased greatly...]
As he checked all the mails, he couldn’t help but be surprised.
Gao Fusheng was attacked by demonic cultivators, and was even severely injured?
What the hell is going on right now? And who is the person who saved Gao Fusheng for him to be called a mighty figure by even the system?
Although Tian Yongheng was curious about it, he knew that he couldn’t get such confidential information about someone by asking the system unless that person was in his relationships or was a Chosen One.
"System, why are you calling him a mighty figure?"
[Any being who has greater cultivation than the host and the host is unaware of their identity is considered a mighty figure.]
That explains it. But having greater cultivation doesn’t mean they’re also stronger than me. Gong Jian was also above me in terms of cultivation.
Putting that aside, I should focus on my cultivation for now. I’ve already offended the faction that was behind Gong Jian.
I can’t always be as lucky as I was with Gong Jian. I’m sure I would’ve died at that time had he been in the later stages of the Innate Realm.
Thinking of this, he felt a sense of urgency to increase his strength as soon as possible. He got into his meditative state once again, deeply immersing himself in cultivation.
...
At the same time, Heavenly Spirit Pavillion.
Gao Fusheng sat in a lotus position, circulating his Spiritual Energy to recover from the injuries he had suffered.
"Keukh!"
He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.
*Whoosh!*
Immediately, a wave of Spiritual Energy rushed in from outside, going inside his body as it stabilized his condition.
At the same time, a beautiful woman walked into the hall where Gao Fusheng was cultivating.
She had long cyan hair tied up into a bun with an ethereal, otherworldly demeanor. Her aqua blue eyes shone brightly, her face looking like an exquisite piece of art. She had a graceful and curvaceous figure, only adding more to her beauty and elegance.
One could tell at a glance that she was not someone ordinary.
She raised her hand and continued to pour out her Spiritual Energy into Gao Fusheng to stabilize his condition.
Some time later, he had already half recovered. He stood up and bowed at her extremely respectfully.
"Senior, I can’t thank you enough for your lifesaving grace. May I ask what your name is?" He asked humbly, without putting on any airs.
"I’m Mo Yuxin, you can come to the Qingyun Sword Sect and ask about me there, though I doubt you’d live long enough to do that considering your vitality..." She replied in a indifferent but attractive voice, a hint of pity flashing across her eyes as she said the last sentence.
Hearing her name and the Qingyun Sword Sect, Gao Fusheng’s eyes widened in extreme shock.
Mo Yuxin, the eldest daughter of the current Sect Master of the Qingyun Sword Sect and the granddaughter of their Nascent Soul Realm Supreme Elder!?
What is she doing here!?
"Putting that aside, why have demonic cultivators appeared here? Do you know anything about that?" She asked, ignoring the surprise in Gao Fusheng’s eyes.
"I-i also don’t know the reason behind this, senior. Too many strange things have been happening recently. From the Dragon King Temple opening their doors to the outside world after countless years to the sudden appearance of demonic cultivators in the Qingyun Region. Not to mention that this is also the time when the eldest disciple of Kunlun Divine Mountain has descended upon the world.
I’ll do my best to find out the exact reason for the demonic cultivator’s appearance in the outside world, but I’m afraid I may need your and the Qingyun Sword Sect’s help in this." He said.
Hearing his words, Mo Yuxin frowned slightly as she recalled how badly he had been beaten by that Innate Realm demonic cultivator from before. Had she not intervened, he would’ve most probably died.
Too weak!
She couldn’t help but think of this as she looked at Gao Fusheng with a judging gaze. The fellow in front of her was already at the end of his lifespan at the Ninth Stage of Acquired Realm, which meant that he was at least 2,000 years old.
She, on the other hand, was barely 1,500 years old and yet had already achieved the Third Stage of Golden Core Realm. It was partly due to her having good cultivation potential and a Single-Elemental Spiritual Root.
"Alright, I’ll help you myself since I’ll be staying here for a while. Demonic cultivators are a big threat to the cultivation world of the Second Great Mortal World. If they’ve made some moves, it means they are already prepared for the consequences. You don’t have to worry too much as I’ll also tell my father about this via Communication Jade.
You should focus on recovering for now." She said as she turned around, vanishing on the spot.
Gao Fusheng bowed again as a form of respect and went back to circulating his Spiritual Energy.
