Hello everyone!
My name is Zhou Ping, an unremarkable "Golden Core disciple" of the "Yun Family Immortal Abode".
Alright, I'm being too modest. In fact, I'm not unremarkable; I'm "exceptionally gifted".
Before joining the "Yun Family Immortal Abode", I was a "rogue cultivator", without any sect or backing, utterly alone.
The "Immortal Cultivation world" is very unfriendly to "rogue cultivators" like me, who have no one to rely on or background to boast of!
Stumbling along, after immense hardship, I managed to cultivate to the "early Golden Core stage". However, due to a lack of pills and spirit stones, and not obtaining suitable cultivation techniques, I made no further progress for the next thirty to forty years.
At that time, I was in despair, constantly "doubting myself" and "doubting life".
Was I truly suited for "immortal cultivation"?
Later, I joined the "Yun Family Immortal Abode"... and I instantly "took off"!
The "Yun Family Immortal Abode" has been too good to me.
The Family Head is a great person.
The elders are great people.
Everyone is great.
I felt a long-lost "warmth of home"!
Not only that, but the "Yun Family Immortal Abode" is incredibly wealthy. The spirit stones and pills distributed monthly are so abundant they are "outrageous".
Heaven knows, when I received my first month's "stipend", I thought there must have been a mistake.
I still remember that moment.
I foolishly asked the "Inner Hall Steward".
"Steward, is there a mistake?"
Upon hearing this, the "Inner Hall Steward's" expression changed slightly. He quickly and diligently recounted the items. Then, he smiled apologetically at me.
"My apologies, I was too busy and confused. I gave you three hundred low-grade spirit stones short. I'll make it up now... Ah, forget it, I'll just give you five hundred as compensation!"
Seeing the additional five hundred "low-grade spirit stones", I was utterly bewildered.
"Steward, I'm not complaining about the shortage, I'm complaining about the excess! So many spirit stones and pills, all for me alone? Are you sure there's no mistake?"
The "Inner Hall Steward" chuckled and said gently.
"You're new to the Yun Family Immortal Abode, aren't you? Heh, all newcomers are like you, easily surprised... This is your monthly stipend. If you can't use it all, well, you know, everyone can't use it all. Figure out a way to use it!"
Yes, at the "Yun Family Immortal Abode", you don't have to worry about not having enough spirit stones and pills; instead, you have to worry about having too many, and what to do with them!
Heh, I'm sorry, I'm "boasting" again!
But this is the "truth"!
With ample spirit stones and pills, my "immortal cultivation aptitude" was fully unleashed.
In less than a month, I broke through, advancing from the "early Golden Core stage" to the "middle Golden Core stage".
I must mention here that the reason for my rapid progress, besides the abundant spirit stones and pills, is thanks to the "Dissemination Elders"!
The "Yun Family Immortal Abode" has many "Dissemination Elders". They regularly hold numerous "Dao lectures" at scheduled times and locations, imparting their "cultivation insights" to all disciples without reservation.
These "cultivation insights" from the "Dissemination Elders" are "invaluable treasures" that are worth more than gold. The fact that they so generously share them is incredibly touching!
At that moment, I made up my mind: when I achieve success in my cultivation later, I will also learn from them and share my "cultivation insights" with all "Yun Family Immortal Abode" disciples without reservation!
May the "Yun Family Immortal Abode" prosper for eternity!
At that moment, I truly integrated into the "great Yun Family Immortal Abode family", and I was proud of my identity as a "Yun Family Immortal Abode disciple"!
It took me one month to advance from the "early Golden Core stage" to the "middle Golden Core stage". My excellent performance earned me the unanimous praise of the sect elders, and thus I was granted an incredibly valuable "opportunity for further study".
One month of advanced study in the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest"!
If joining the "Yun Family Immortal Abode" was "taking off",
then studying in the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest" was a "three hundred and sixty-degree, ultra-high-speed spiral take-off".
In the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest", I ate "Sage Dragon Tooth Rice".
"Sage Dragon Tooth Rice" is a grade higher than the best spirit rice outside, "Dragon Tooth Rice".
After eating it, the "chance of enlightenment" greatly increased!
After eating the first "Sage Dragon Tooth Rice", I "enlightened"!
This wave of "enlightenment" greatly boosted my cultivation, allowing me to reach the "peak of the middle Golden Core stage", poised to advance further at any moment to the "late Golden Core stage".
Later, I casually found a "lake" in the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest" to wash my hands. When my palm touched the "lake water", a large amount of pure "Star Spiritual Energy" surged into my body, and my cultivation once again soared...
Holy crap!
I was stunned then!
This wasn't a "lake" at all, but rather "Star Spiritual Light Water" condensed from the purest "Star Spiritual Light".
Countless amounts of "Star Spiritual Light Water" had formed such a vast "lake"!
It was inhumanly "wealthy"!
*Pop!*
The bottleneck of the minor realm was broken!
I successfully advanced to the "late Golden Core stage"!
This is what happened on my first day of advanced study in the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest".
In the days that followed, every day was incredibly fulfilling.
"Enlightening" in the "Star Spiritual Light Lake"!
"Enlightening" on the "Dao Lecture Platform"!
"Enlightening" further through "watching movies"!
Enlightenment, enlightenment, and more enlightenment!
...
During my one month of advanced study in the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest", I "enlightened" a total of nine times.
Nine times!
This was simply insane!
Considering that I never had a single "enlightenment" when I was a "rogue cultivator" before.
The benefits of these nine "enlightenments" were obvious.
First was my "cultivation".
I successfully advanced to the "Great Perfection Golden Core stage"!
Just one step away from the "Nascent Soul stage".
Honestly, if I wished, I could break through the final "bottleneck" and advance to the "Nascent Soul stage" at any time.
However, I have been suppressing my realm and have no intention of "advancing to Nascent Soul" for the time being.
My "leveling speed" has been too fast.
It took only about two months to skyrocket from the "early Golden Core stage" to the "Great Perfection Golden Core stage", a speed that is hard to believe!
When I was a "rogue cultivator", I wouldn't have dared to dream of this; it's too outrageous!
And now, all of this is happening to me in reality!
I've decided to consolidate my realm properly, enhance my foundation, and then achieve a stronger "Nascent Soul"!
The "nine enlightenments" in the "Purple Jade Bamboo Forest" also allowed me to comprehend powerful divine abilities and cultivation techniques.
I comprehended a total of two divine abilities and one cultivation technique.
Both were "realized" while "watching movies".
"Primordial Chaos Heavenly Light", a defensive divine ability.
"Swift Thunder Flash", an offensive divine ability.
"Heavenly Human Nine Transformations", a super powerful cultivation technique!
