Chapter 53 - You Want to Be The Summit Leader?
“Master.”
At the peak of the Ninth Summit, Jiang Lan handed over some immortal fruits.
These were fruits that had been planted on the Ninth Summit.
Jiang Lan was the one who took care of them.
It didn’t take much time and he would occasionally tend to them.
Initially, he was going to buy wine for his master.
However, the appearance of the First Summit Leader disrupted his plan.
For safety reasons, he returned to the Ninth Summit as soon as possible and did not go to the old inn to buy wine.
Therefore, he could only use immortal fruits to replace them.
“Are you confident in advancing to the Golden Core stage?”
Mo Zhengdong took over the fruits and asked Jiang Lan.
Three months.
Jiang Lan lasted for three whole months. Mo Zhengdong had initially thought that his disciple would at most stay for one month.
He did not expect his disciple to stay in the Peaceful Void Lake for three months.
This disciple of him had given him surprises after surprises.
“I will give it a try,” Jiang Lan replied.
No one could guarantee anything regarding cultivation.
“Then let’s give it a try.” Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan.
He did not say much.
Jiang Lan was an opinionated person and knew what he was doing.
As his master, he had said and done everything he could.
Therefore, the rest would depend on Jiang Lan himself.
Whether or not he could break through to the Golden Core realm in these two years was entirely up to himself.
Jiang Lan wanted to go back and cultivate, but he still asked curiously;
“Master, will my title change again after staying in the Ninth Summit for a hundred years?”
“You want to be the Summit Leader?” Mo Zhengdong smiled at Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan :”…”
He wanted to prevent what happened thirty years ago from happening.
The threshold of a hundred years was already very close. He did not want to be called by his master to buy wine and be filial to him.
He should do such things himself.
…
Jiang Lan left the peak of the Ninth Summit and headed towards the Netherworld Cave.
He needed to go back and cultivate.
He was sure that he did not have to care too much about reaching the hundred years mark.
Soon, he returned to the entrance of the netherworld. However, this time, he discovered that the original three people had become two.
Ao Longyu had left at some point.
The other two were still cultivating.
They were still using the very initial array formation.
This time, Jiang Lan felt that something was off.
But it was very weak.
It was likely that as time passed, the array formation also needed to change.
The terrain of the Ninth Summit was not fixed.
In particular, the aura of the Netherworld would have quite a bit of influence on it.
Jiang Lan’s steps were light, not disturbing their cultivation.
However, the other party probably wouldn’t stay for too long.
The past few months had consumed a great deal of their energy, and they more or less had some Netherworld aura on them.
If they were too anxious to breakthrough, it would backfire on them instead.
What surprised Jiang Lan was that when he had just passed by the array formation.
The two of them opened their eyes.
“Junior brother is back?” Jing Ting immediately asked Jiang Lan to stay.
“Sorry for disturbing Senior Brother.” Jiang Lan lowered his head apologetically.
“No, it’s just because we were looking out for Junior Brother.” Jing Ting stood up.
Mu Xiu also stood up.
They walked up to Jiang Lan and took out a bottle of pills.
“There are some Golden Core Stabilizing Pills here that can be used to help you form your Golden Core. This can be considered a gift from Senior Sister Ao and the two of us. We wanted to thank Junior Brother for your reminder. It gave us a fair bit of fortuitous opportunities. Senior Sister Ao has also completed her cultivation ahead of time because of this. She’s now proceeding to her next step of cultivation. ”
Jiang Lan looked at the bottle of pills and took it.
The other party received a fortuitous opportunity because of him. The pills could be considered a return gift.
They owed each other nothing.
“Then I won’t disturb Senior Brother any further.”
After the other party nodded, Jiang Lan turned around and entered the Netherworld Cave.
He wanted to enter and cultivate, making his essence soul become stronger.
Although he had the Peaceful Void Lake’s help, he still needed some time before he could advance to the mid-stage Essence Soul realm.
However, the time to do so was greatly reduced.
In addition, with his Registration System, the time and effort he needed to advance to the mid-stage Essence Soul realm would be theoretically reduced to the maximum.
When he returned to the Netherworld Cave, Jiang Lan noticed that the Netherworld Aura here seemed to be heavier than before.
“Is the eruption that occurs every hundred years coming?”
The entrance to the Netherworld required people to guard. Not only was there a passageway here, but the Netherworld Aura would also erupt once every 100 years.
Sometimes, there would even be some netherworld creatures running out.
They were just weak creatures.
And would not affect the outside world much.
“Then it should be time for the First Summit to receive their fortuitous opportunity again.”
The First Summit should have an entrance to the Heavenly Realm.
It also erupted once every hundred years.
However, Jiang Lan wasn’t envious because the Netherworld Aura could also greatly increase his cultivation.
However, it would still depend on whether his master would allow him to go near the entrance and cultivate when the time came.
“The vegetative egg has also recovered.”
Seeing that the vegetative egg had returned to normal.
Jiang Lan cast another time of Rainbow Auspicious Clouds.
He still had that uncomfortable feeling when he cast the spell on the egg.
Then, he started cultivating.
During this cultivation session, Jiang Lan felt a sense of solidity.
It was as if his body contained countless energies that were helping him improve his essence soul.
Even the effect of consuming a pill meant for one at the Essence Soul realm was incomparable to what he was feeling now.
Only when he possessed the Daoist Scripture did he have a similar feeling.
In this state, Jiang Lan’s cultivation speed was much faster.
In fact, he didn’t even need to eat pills which would help raise his cultivation base.
Jiang Lan remained silent, continuously deepening his cultivation.
He did not care about what was happening outside.
Moreover, he was currently supposed to be in the crucial period of advancing to the Golden Core Realm.
Not to mention the two people at the entrance of the Netherworld, even his master would not arrange anything for him to do in fear of disturbing him.
