On the high platform, Lu Xun was still Lu Xun as always.

But some people quickly noticed something was amiss.

The first to discover this were the Inner Sect Disciples who had already fully mastered the Qi Consumption Technique.

As they were highly skilled and had exceptional eyesight, they found that Lu Xun’s strength had risen in an instant the moment he stepped onto the platform!

Could it be… he had a breakthrough?

No way, he had a breakthrough just now?!

The Outer Sect Disciples didn’t react as quickly, but some experienced disciples, who were about to reach the Great Perfection in the Qi Consumption Technique, also noticed Lu Xun’s transformation.

The peak, which had been silent earlier, instantly became lively. All the disciples were waiting for the speech from the Young Elder, Lu Xun.

Everyone knew that Lu Xun had survived an earlier suicide attempt by jumping off a cliff, for unknown reasons, but he had been severely injured. The Sect Master had to use a precious Spirit Pill to heal him within just a few days.

Before, he was just a mortal.

His talent was not extraordinary, to be more precise, it was extremely poor, which was no secret in the Demon Sect.

After all, every disciple had to have their aptitude tested before joining the sect and have it registered.

Even if Lu Xun was exceptionally accepted by the master, this process still had to be completed, he was just unconscious at the time.

Compared to the extraordinary eight ripples of Ji Li, Lu Xun only had one pathetic ripple.

Which meant, just judging from the talent, he had just barely passed the threshold and was among the worst.

However, Heavenly Dust Continent had a long history and there have been numerous instances of people with extremely poor aptitude becoming extremely powerful. It’s the popular trope called the ‘underdog story,’ where every few hundred years, one or two such people would come out.

And because Lu Xun was the master’s disciple, no one commented on his talent.

Most people didn’t feel envious or angry, just regretful.

How nice it would be if the Young Elder’s aptitude was a bit better.

The Small Study is the most prominent and shining sign of the Demon Sect, and everyone always hopes it continues to shine brightly.

While they did not feel Lu Xun had tarnished the Small Study, they hoped from the bottom of their hearts that he would add splendor to it.

As for outsiders commenting on their respectful address of a young man of garbage talent as the Young Elder… what does that have to do with the Demon Sect?

Should the Demon Sect care about others’ opinions when conducting its affairs?

They can say what they want behind our backs, the Demon Sect would not collapse because of it. If someone dares to bring it up openly… do they think our swords aren’t sharp enough?

Like a few years ago, at the ceremony when Mao Nanbei was accepted into the sect, she said her catchphrase, “Don’t mess with me. I’ll chop off your head with one slash!”

The disciples below were startled at first, then they discussed it and finally all smiled knowingly and nodded.

No one knew who started it, but someone shouted, “I will heed the teachings of the Young Elder!”

Then many young disciples joined the shout.

In the end, they all bowed and shouted in unison, “We will heed the teachings of the Young Elder! ! ! ”

Because that’s the attitude of the Demon Sect towards outsiders—don’t mess with the Demon Sect, or the Demon Sect will chop off your head!

And now, with everyone watching, Lu Xun had a breakthrough to the second level of the Qi Consumption Technique on the high platform, and the entire Demon Sect felt honored!

All the entry-level techniques of the Demonic Way on the Heavenly Dust Continent have the same characteristic, that is, the first level is extremely easy, the later levels are not too difficult, and even the ninth or tenth level are not too difficult. The most difficult part is the breakthrough from the first to the second level!

The first level is the most relaxed, only requires drawing Qi into the body.

The body will first absorb some spiritual energy to improve the constitution until the body is saturated with absorption, and then the spiritual energy will linger in the Qi Sea.

When the first strand of spiritual energy appears in the Qi Sea, that stage is the first level of the Qi Consumption Technique.

The second level, on the other hand, is different. The second level not only requires strengthening the spiritual energy but also requires a certain “understanding” – what exactly is the Oi Sea?

To put it simply, one has to “see” the Qi Sea.

This is a profound and mysterious realization.

It can be considered the first test on the path of cultivation, undertaken by the cultivators.

So, as you can imagine, the cultivation speed of Young Elder isn’t slow; he was a mere mortal before jumping off the cliff, yet today he touched the threshold of the second level of the Qi Consumption Technique, and the moment he stepped on to the stage…

He achieved enlightenment!

Yes, Young Elder didn’t go by the set procedures, he simply stood in silence with a smile, apparently lost in thought.

In such a situation, with so many people gathered and all eyes on him, he was able to calmly have an epiphany!

Young Elder is truly an extraordinary person!

Even the most talented inner sect disciples put themselves in his shoes and admitted that they couldn’t do the same.

With so many people watching, it would be good enough to not be nervous, let alone achieving tranquility for an epiphany.

How many young cultivators in the entire Heavenly Dust Continent could possess such a refined temperament?

A feeling of respect naturally rose.

Many had the same thought: “Although I started practising before Young Elder and have a higher cultivation level than him, I simply lack this temperament…

I am inferior!”

On the platform, the Sect Master, Peak Master, and several elders standing behind Lu Xun were the first to notice Lu Xun’s breakthrough.

They had heard from Shen Yan that Young Elder stepped into the threshold of cultivation overnight, reaching the first level of the Qi Consumption Technique.

It wasn’t fast, but it wasn’t slow either, surpassing the speed expected from his talent.

But in just one day, he made further progress?

Making two breakthroughs in the Qi Consumption Technique in just one day and one night!

Did we ever have this speed?

Even when the “Heavenly Dust” entered public testing and players arrived, most players couldn’t level up quickly.

Because, the experience points gained from initial quests are very limited, the main goal of these quests is to help everyone get familiar with the game.

Unless one is lucky, like Lu Xun, who encountered a Mountain Ghost, a so-called “moving experience pack”, and killed it.

At the beginning of the game, players have not mastered the correct method to eliminate ghosts. They don’t know to pierce their eyes. Therefore, even if they encounter ghosts initially, they do not dare to stab them but are chased and stabbed by them instead.

“Please no, please no, crying gimme a break”, that is the situation when new players encounter ghosts.

Therefore, it might not be a record-breaking move, but Lu Xun’s current feat is definitely breathtaking!

He doesn’t need to give instructions on the platform, because he has already taught a lesson to all the disciples of the Demon Sect through his actions:

——The path of cultivation is long, you must cultivate your heart.

After the instructions, all disciples are supposed to pay their respects to the elder again as per the protocol.

At this moment, everyone was willing to do so.

All the disciples bowed together, their voices louder than before, “We pledge to follow the teachings of Elder! ! ! ”

Standing on the platform, Lu Xun looked at the crowd of disciples below and felt slightly confused.

“Why are they obeying the teachings already? I haven’t finished the speech I prepared last night! I want to act the part of a copywriter once, give me a chance!”

But as things stand, he could only continue to smile warmly, standing tall, displaying his magnanimity.

At this moment, his reputation value finally started to skyrocket!

At the same time, a question arose in everyone’s heart:

“What does the Qi Sea seen by Young Elder actually look like?”

(P.S.: The new week has started, wishing for recommendations and rewards to hit the Krypton Gold…. Oops, I mean the sign-up list!)
