Chapter 2
Jiang Lan looked at the time and felt that it was not far from the next day.
But where should he sign in the next day?
The peak of the Ninth Summit?
It seemed like a good place, but it didn’t feel like it was suitable.
The Netherworld entrance?
This registration could fail as well.

“Oh yes, I can sign at the main entrance of Kunlun Mountain.”
The Ninth Summit was a part of Kunlun, and the Kunlun Gate was the entrance to the entire Kunlun.
It was an extraordinary place where everyone could enter and leave.
The peak of the Ninth Summit might be close to the Great Dao, but the gift he could receive at the gate might be more practical.
1
Was the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel not good?
Good. So good that he was speechless.
But right now, it was not practical enough for him.
What he needed was the foundation.
1
After making his decision, Jiang Lan walked out of the room.
It was almost midnight and the sky was extremely dark.
Fortunately, there was the full moon in the sky tonight.
When Jiang Lan left the Ninth Summit, Mo Zhengdong, who was originally sitting on the mountain peak, looked at Jiang Lan’s back with slight desolation.
The Ninth Summit was rather special because the entrance to the netherworld tested one’s nature.
If he couldn’t get through, he couldn’t stay.
This was also the reason why he had to teach the other party mental cultivation the next day before bringing him to understand the entrance to the Netherworld.
“He left in the end.”
Mo Zhengdong sighed and closed his eyes.
He had waited for so many years and accepted so many disciples, but not a single disciple had entered his sect.
No one was able stay here for ten years.
…
Jiang Lan left the Ninth Summit. After spending some time, he finally arrived at the entrance of Kunlun at dawn.
He didn’t walk out. Instead, he stood at the gate and looked at the magnificent Kunlun entrance.
Then, he chanted in his heart,
“System, sign in at Kunlun Gate.”
The system’s voice sounded in Jiang Lan’s mind.
[Ding!]
[Signed in successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the gift of the Great Dao. You have obtained the cultivation technique, Kunlun Heart Sutra.]
[Kunlun Heart Sutra: The supreme cultivation technique of Kunlun that connects to the netherworld and connects to the heavenly realm. It cultivates the vital energy of all living things and transforms into a fearful heavenly might.]
1
Then, Jiang Lan saw the Kunlun Heart Sutra in his mind.
Jiang Lan’an suppressed the ecstasy in his heart.
The Kunlun Heart Sutra was one of the fundamental principles of Kunlun.
He actually obtained it just like that.
However, there was still no reminder about the Great Dao. It seemed like he could not sign in here continuously as well.
However, there were so many places in Kunlun Mountain that there had to be the Great Dao.
Without thinking too much about it, Jiang Lan intended to return to the Ninth Summit.
However, on his way back, he bumped into two disciples. Each of them had a lightning mark on their faces. One was under his left eye, while the other was under his right eye.

But he did not know either of them.
Therefore, he did not stay for long. He had only taken two steps when he heard a voice behind him.
“Isn’t this the new disciple of the Ninth Summit? Is he planning to go to another peak?”
“He didn’t even last a day, how rare is that?”
“It’s not uncommon. In the past, there were also people who could not last even a day. But those who went to the Ninth Summit usually did not have much talent. It is more of a problem if the other peaks would accept them after they left.
They’re useless. The other peaks seldom keep them. ”
“He seems to be heading back to the Ninth Summit. Looks like he’s not leaving.”
“Haha, that’s not important. With his talent, he won’t be able to stay for long.
Just watch.
5
Even those with powerful cultivation knowledge would find it difficult to stay in the Ninth Summit, much less a minor character like that. It’s a route that practically cuts off one’s own path to immortality.
For countless years, only a single immortal has remained there. ”
Jiang Lan listened to their voices but didn’t say anything.
He was just a minor character. Today, he might be inferior, but in the future, he would definitely be an existence that these people couldn’t strive for.
As long as he signed into the system, these people did not even have the right to look up to him.
As for not being able to stay long on the Ninth Summit?
What a joke. He was going to stay on the Ninth Summit forever. The main thing was that it was safer with fewer people.
When Jiang Lan returned to the Ninth Summit, Mo Zhengdong, who had been meditating, suddenly smiled.
“It’s good that you’ve made up your mind. I hope that one day, you’ll be able to make me give you high hopes.”
Then, Mo Zhengdong closed his eyes and continued to cultivate.
There was nothing else on the Ninth Summit. All they had to do was keep a close eye on the Netherworld passageway.
1
However, this was indeed the most difficult task in all of Kunlun.
After returning to his residence, Jiang Lan immediately observed the Kunlun Heart Sutra without any hesitation.
When he saw the Kunlun Heart Sutra, he realized that there was a ball of energy that could conceal his current cultivation progress.
7
After confirming that there was no effect, Jiang Lan immediately learned the Kunlun Heart Sutra.
The moment the Kunlun Heart Sutra entered his body, he could see a lot of vital energy even with his eyes closed.
These energies would fuse into his body as he worked on the heart sutra.
However, his body seemed to be shrouded in fog.
Not long later, he felt his body fill with this spiritual aura.
The Qi entered his body and flowed through a hundred veins, connecting to the spiritual platform and opening up the immortals’ dwelling.
His body emitted a golden light as he observed the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
At this moment, Jiang Lan felt as if he had walked from one room to the public square. It was as if the world had become much bigger.
He could see every corner of his body.
In the end, everything returned back to normal.
“I’ve entered the sect?” Jiang Lan opened his eyes in disbelief.
5
The first hurdle of immortal cultivation was entering the sect.
5
Ordinary aptitudes required 100 days of preparation, and those with formidable aptitudes required at least a month.
He did not do anything. He only cultivated the Kunlun Heart Sutra, and he was able to enter the sect overnight.
6
If this was to spread, it would be absolutely shocking.
This was the value of the Kunlun Heart Sutra, the supreme mental cultivation technique of Kunlun.
When he reached the highest level,
along with the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel, where couldn’t he go to the vast wilderness?
Perhaps he could walk around in the Netherworld as well.
Of course, that still needed to wait until he had achieved Immortal Ascension.
Otherwise, it would be useless.
When ordinary people cultivated, they first refined their Qi. Then, they would enter Foundation Establishment to build their foundation, before condensing their Golden Core, and refining their souls in the Soul Transformation realm. Thereafter, they would refine their spirits back to emptiness in the Void Refinement stage, then transcend the tribulations to become an immortal.
2
Jiang Lan was already at the Qi Refinement stage.
2
Starting Qi Refinement meant that he was no longer a mortal.
Not long after, Jiang Lan turned his attention to the invisible fog.
The fog continued to surround him.
Just by sensing it, Jiang Lan understood that this was a concealment brought about by the Kunlun Heart Sutra.
It obscured the heavenly secrets, preventing others from seeing his cultivation.
2
“It really suits me.”
The night passed uneventfully.
“Master, Disciple requests to see you.” Jiang Lan stood at the edge of the ninth summit and spoke respectfully.
2
Mo Zhengdong was currently cultivating with his eyes closed.
“Looks like you’re already prepared to stay on the Ninth Summit.” Mo Zhengdong opened his eyes to look at Jiang Lan and said with relief,
“On the first night of the Ninth Summit, many disciples will see some inner demons. It’s already very good that you managed to withstand them.”
Inner demons?
Jiang Lan was a little surprised. He didn’t feel anything last night.
He soon understood that it was because of the Kunlun Heart Sutra.
The Kunlun Heart Sutra cultivated the vital energy of all living things and transformed them into a terrifying heavenly might. How could an evil spirit go close to him?
4
At this moment, Jiang Lan felt like he could stay on the Ninth Summit forever.
The aura of the Netherworld did not harm him at all.
“Yes, Master. Disciple will always stay on the Ninth Summit. You will be my Master for life,” Jiang Lan said firmly.
3
If nothing happened, he would not leave casually.
This was Kunlun. He wanted to rely on Kunlun and his Master to become the strongest existence.
Mo Zhengdong paused for a second and said calmly,
“Let’s go. I’ll show you the entrance to the Netherworld and teach you the introductory mental cultivation technique.”
1
Although Mo Zhengdong spoke calmly, his happiness could not be concealed.

Perhaps this disciple would really stay here.
