Immortal cultivation starts with copying.

Chapter 797 Another Expedition

Ten years after Chen Yunhao's return, his beloved disciple Qin Luoying finally reached the Void Refinement stage.

It's true that he was a bit slow given his abilities, but that was something he did intentionally.

With his natural talent and a good mentor, his advancement shouldn't have been so slow.

However, Qin Luoying spent several decades honing her skills in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, all for the sake of accumulating strength for a future breakthrough.

Sure enough, after breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm, his cultivation level skyrocketed to the second level of the Void Refinement Realm, which is equivalent to breaking through two levels in one go, something that ordinary people cannot do.

Furthermore, the spiritual power within him is extremely abundant, exceeding that of other cultivators at the same level by 20%.

Chen Yunhao was very pleased, as Qin Luoying's steady rise in rank would greatly contribute to her future achievements.

He had special reasons for his rapid promotions, but he hoped that his apprentices and nephews could rise steadily step by step and not be too hasty.

Fifty years later, his master, Lin Changfeng, advanced to the Mahayana stage, becoming the second Mahayana cultivator of the Taiyi Sect.

This effectively boosted the strength of the Taiyi Sect by two points, while Chen Yunhao's own cultivation did not suffer either, as he diligently accumulated immortal energy within his body.

Ten years later, Wang Rui advanced to the Void Refinement stage. His cultivation became even more disciplined, unlike Qin Luoying's rapid progress.

After all, even immortals find it difficult to solve the problem of innate spiritual root aptitude.

Chen Yunhao can only rely more on acquired resources and cultivation techniques.

It was because of his uncle Chen Yunhao that Wang Rui was able to rise step by step to his current position.

Otherwise, with his aptitude and without anyone's help, he would have had a hard time even ascending to the Spirit Realm, and might already be a pile of bones by now.

Of course, Wang Rui also had greater hope because of Chen Yunhao.

At least he is almost certain to advance to the next level and transcend tribulation in the future, as Chen Yunhao has already planned and paved the way for his future cultivation.

As for whether he can ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future, or even successfully reach it, that depends on Chen Yunhao.

If he can successfully reach the Immortal Realm and pave the way there.

Then, not only Qin Luoying and Wang Rui, but also Lin Changfeng, Ye Yun, and others can ascend to the heavens.

This is Chen Yunhao's wish: wouldn't it be better for everyone to ascend together and enjoy this long lifespan?

Flying up alone, without a single close or intimate friend, even with a long lifespan, would only lead to a lonely and miserable existence. What would be the point?

Soon the centennial anniversary arrived again, and this time Chen Yunhao did not plan to participate.

No one will force you to do this. If you want to go, go; if you don't want to go, that's fine too.

Because it's pointless for him to want the spot, and the last spot was transferred to Hu Yizhi anyway.

But sometimes, when you're in the world, you're not in control of your own destiny; even if he doesn't want to go, he has no choice.

Yan Qingyang personally conveyed an oral message to him, instructing him to attend.

As everyone knows from the last competition, Chen Yunhao has a profound understanding of the Dao of Space. It can be said that as long as he participates in the competition, he will be invincible.

In other words, his spot is practically guaranteed, which is very important for Hanhai Prefecture.

In his oral decree, Yan Qingyang stated that if he wished to resell his spot, the Hanhai Sect was willing to pay double the price to buy it back.

Under these circumstances, Chen Yunhao had no choice but to make the trip.

He can't refuse Yan Qingyang right now, because his strength doesn't allow it!

Let him go. This time he brought Qin Luoying along, to broaden her horizons and help her make connections.

He asked when he participated last time, and there was no rule against bringing disciples.

"Master, I heard that the only way to ascend to immortality is through the Ascension Platform of the Heavenly Vault Sect?"

On the way to the Hanhai Sect, Qin Luoying asked curiously.

He was Chen Yonghao's disciple, and he had read most of the books in Chen Yunhao's possession, so his knowledge was extremely rich.

"The Ascension Platform is necessary, but it doesn't have to be the one from the Heavenly Dome Sect. Any Ascension Platform that is still usable can be used..."

Chen Yunhao smiled and glanced at his apprentice before continuing.

"Back when the ascension channels were not severed, almost every major sect that could be ranked had its own ascension platform. By using the ascension platform, one could be directly guided to a sect in the upper realm..."

"Later, the ascension passage was cut off, and some sects gradually declined. The ascension platform was also damaged. Now the function of the ascension platform has been greatly reduced. It can only guide cultivators to the vicinity of the immortal realm, but cannot send people into the immortal realm. So it doesn't matter whose ascension platform is used."

"Master, as far as I know, only the Heavenly Vault Sect can use the Ascension Platform Spirit Realm, right?"

"That's right, there is indeed only this one in the human territory."

"Then why didn't Master participate? Why did he even give away the spot he had obtained?"

Qin Luoying asked in confusion.

"That's because I have an Ascension Platform that's fully functional...!"

Chen Yunhao said this via telepathy.

"You don't need to know more about this. It will be explained to you when your cultivation level is high enough, or before your master ascends to immortality."

“Yes, Master…!”

Several months later, Chen Yunhao and his apprentice arrived at the Hanhai Sect again.

"Fellow Daoist Hu, isn't one spot enough for you?"

Chen Yuanhao never expected to run into Hu Yizhi again at the Hanhai Sect.

Logically speaking, since he already has a spot, there's no point in him participating again; one spot per person is enough.

"Brother Zhao, you may not know this, but the previous spot was for my senior brother. This time, I'm going to fight for it myself..."

Hu Yizhi's senior brother, Chen Yunhao, was a veteran Tribulation Transcending cultivator in Hanhai Prefecture, and should be an old cultivator at the sixth level of Tribulation Transcending.

It is said that Hu Yizhi entered the sect late and was his master's last disciple. His skills were all passed down by his senior brother, so the relationship between the two was unusual.

"Brother Hu is truly benevolent!"

Chen Yunhao clasped his hands in a fist salute, realizing that Hu Yizhi had indeed impressed him.

"Brother Chen, should we keep the spot we won this time for ourselves?"

"No, if you're so capable, go and take care of Old Monster Yan again, and I'll give you back this spot, how about that?"

"this……!"

This time, Hu Yizhi hesitated.

"It's not that I don't want it, it's just that I'm powerless to help you this time; I have no good stock left!"

Hu Yizhi shrugged, clearly unable to do anything about it, and Chen Yunhao certainly wasn't going to give it away for nothing.

"Then I wish Brother Hu a resounding victory!"

Chen Yunhao chuckled.

"Brother Chen, I'm still very grateful no matter what. We brothers should keep in touch more often in the future!"

“No problem…!”

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two were led by disciples of the Han Hai Sect to a quiet room to rest, awaiting their departure the next day.

This was Qin Luoying's first time visiting this super sect, and she looked on with great curiosity.

Of course, the Vast Ocean is indeed powerful and has a magnificent atmosphere, making it a sacred place in the hearts of most cultivators in the Vast Ocean Prefecture.
