Chapter 165 Do Not Ascend!

Facing the blushing mother and daughter before him, Chen Luo felt an overwhelming sense of speechlessness.

Good heavens, what kind of good things are you two thinking about?

After two heavy coughs, Chen Luo took the initiative to break the awkward atmosphere, pretending not to understand the nonsensical ramblings of these two dragons.

And after Long Ji had a conversation with Linglong, Linglong also realized that she had misunderstood him before.

A moment later, Chen Luo looked at the mother and daughter standing quietly in front of him, heads bowed as if they had done something wrong, and shook his head helplessly:

"Alright, I'll ask again, Long Ji, Linglong, do you both wish to become my disciples?"

Long Ji could no longer maintain her dignified demeanor as an Ascended expert. From the moment she first saw Chen Luo, Long Ji found it difficult to put on airs in front of him.

Not to mention being thoroughly crushed by Chen Luo in the art of formations, coupled with the current misunderstanding, Long Ji genuinely wished she could find a hole to crawl into!

Linglong's thoughts were much simpler. After all, going from a potential stepfather to a master, Linglong felt she wasn't at a loss!

At worst, she could become a rebellious disciple who defies her master in the future!

Overjoyed, Linglong pulled Long Ji and nodded excitedly, "Master, Master, we are willing."

Long Ji gave her daughter a slight glare, but still nodded silently.

Having gained a pair of disciples who intended to defy him, Chen Luo rubbed his temples, feeling as though his disciples were growing in number.

However, with the talent of "Eternal Teacher," taking in and teaching disciples was itself a good way to improve himself.

[Eternal Teacher]

[Type]: Talent (Racial Heritage Level)

[Effect]:

1. Exemplary Teacher: You can teach your mastered skills to others in a suitable manner according to your subjective will, and the recipient may then gain skills recognized by the system. (The teaching effect will vary based on your teaching method and the recipient's comprehension.)

2. Teaching for All: The objects of your teaching are not limited to your own race. However, skills still need to be taught in an acceptable manner to suitable beings, and you cannot help the recipient break through physiological or systemic limitations.

3. Mutual Growth through Teaching: The process of teaching is also a part of learning. Based on your skill level, your students' skill proficiency will increase rapidly. Furthermore, you will receive corresponding feedback for all breakthroughs your students achieve in their future careers due to the skills you taught.

[Description]: Without the Master, the world is like an eternal night.

In his previous world, Chen Luo relied on this skill to help the Priestess and other combat personnel rapidly increase their skill levels.

However, in the Mind Soul World, due to the short duration, he did not develop this skill further.

But in the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths, Chen Luo now values the potential of this skill even more.

Chen Luo had previously believed that this talent only applied to system players. However, after testing it in the Mind Soul World, Chen Luo clarified one point: the talent was merely described by the system, but once acquired, the talent became a part of his own abilities!

Therefore, he could completely use teaching and the growth of countless students to feed back into his understanding of this world.

The accumulation of spiritual energy civilization over countless years could not be fully mastered by simply reading books.

Chen Luo believed that before the immortal-demon war arrived in a thousand years, he could try to become a master in this world. xxs1

Theoretically, using this world's power would not provoke too much of a reaction from those so-called Dao Harmonizers.

However, at the beginning, Chen Luo did not intend to make a big fuss.

Starting with the Vast Sea Sect was just right.

...

Chen Luo had always worried that his actions would attract the attention of Dao Harmonizer level existences. However, after reading the entire Vast Sea Library, Chen Luo's understanding of the history and culture of the entire world, in addition to cultivation knowledge, reached an extremely high level.

Firstly, Chen Luo discovered a very interesting fact.

Although the Primitive Land was the initial land of this world, it had now perhaps become a discarded part of the entire Nine Heavens and Nine Earths.

Here, the highest cultivation level was the peak existence of the ninth level of Ascension.

And over countless years, most of the existences in legends who broke through to the late stage of Ascension chose to leave this land and head to the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths.

In the records of ordinary human sects, those who ascended never returned.

However, the Ten Great Sects, and even the non-human force, the Vast Sea Sect, retained some special records.

The nine great sects, excluding the Vast Sea Sect, were actually representatives of major forces in the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths in this world, and they still retained channels of communication with the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths.

For example, the witch with ninth-grade aptitude at the auction earlier was a reward obtained by the Four Seasons Society from the Nine Heavens.

However, cultivators on this continent were mostly busy fighting for resources, and no cultivator had the leisure to study the history of the entire immortal cultivation world and the ethereal Nine Heavens and Nine Earths.

Even existences at the level of the Ten Great Sects mostly believed that the world had always been this way since ancient times.

The Nine Heavens and Nine Earths were high above, and as subordinate sects, their greatest wish was to break through to the late stage of Ascension and be received by their upper sects to ascend.

However, the demon race, as the only non-human force that had existed since time immemorial, and the only special sect in the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths without an upper sect, retained more records.

These were clues interwoven into the notes of countless predecessors.

The entire Primitive Land, starting from the primitive era without written records, according to myths and legends, and some local customs data that Chen Luo had consulted, should have a history of hundreds of millions of years.

But the oldest extant texts that Chen Luo could currently see were only the remains of a divine turtle at the third level of Ascension, left behind a million years ago.

That million-year-old incorruptible turtle shell actually recorded a Dao technique for deduction on the path of techniques.

And as an immortal technique of Ascension, it was one of the precious texts that Long Ji had to personally move in the last two days.

But it was extremely interesting that after Chen Luo's Five Protection Methods all reached the Grandmaster realm, he found a vague message from the depths of this turtle shell:

"Madness!! Everything is madness!!! This mortal world is just a cage!! A wasteland!!! Absolutely! Do not trust forces from the heavens and earth!! Absolutely! Absolutely!! Do not ascend!!!"

The actual voice of the message was in a very ancient demonic language. If Chen Luo hadn't read the entire library, he wouldn't have understood this message.

Yes, the ancient history that this continent could trace back to was only a million years.

According to ancient legends, a million years ago, immortals and demons divided heaven and earth, established the rules of the Heavenly Dao, and true immortals no longer enjoyed eternal life.

From then on, all those who ascended had to undergo another immortal tribulation every thousand years!

If they passed, their mana would increase and they could live for another thousand years; if they failed, they would die and their Dao would vanish!

The only way out was to ascend to the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths after reaching the late stage of Ascension, i.e., the seventh level of Ascension, to no longer be threatened by immortal tribulations!

Of course, some ascenders chose not to ascend. They could grow to the ninth level of Ascension at most, the peak of the mortal world.

But the subsequent celestial tribulations every thousand years would still descend. However, reaching Ascension at this point meant reaching the absolute peak, with no further progress possible.

Afterward, the increasingly powerful tribulations and the peak Ascended cultivators, the outcome was naturally self-evident.

Regarding this, Chen Luo came to a conclusion.
