My low-key cultivation of immortality was discovered by the emperor in my diary.

Chapter 220 It's not loneliness, it's being different.

"Senior Sister Chu."

"Good day, Chief."

"Greetings, Elder Chu."

As she walked, everyone nodded to her.

Chu Lengyu gripped the Dudu sword tightly, her eyes momentarily blank, unable to distinguish whether what she was seeing was real or fake.

Ji Lingchuan walked alongside her, glanced at her, and said, "Why are you so wary, Junior Sister, in your own sect? Are you still under the effects of the Spirit-Guiding Incense?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Lengyu looked at him with a puzzled expression.

He sighed and continued, "I've said it before, my junior sister is naturally intelligent and doesn't need those external things."

"Elder Guan and the others insisted that Junior Sister was still young and lacked experience. To ensure her tribulation was successful, they wanted to use the Divine Incense to help her. This incense has a miraculous effect on overcoming the tribulation of inner demons, but the aftereffects are too troublesome."

As he spoke, a hint of pity appeared in his eyes.

Chu Lengyu was somewhat confused, pondering and hesitating, and did not respond.

She now has two sets of memories.

One of them is about her experiences as a transmigrator who obtained a system and lived and cultivated in the Great Xia Dynasty.

The other document contains her memories of being accepted as a true disciple by the Tianxuan Sect, the number one sect in Zhongzhou, due to her exceptional talent, and how she cultivated step by step to the Nascent Soul stage.

Both memories are very detailed, but they accuse each other of being illusions created by inner demons, and only one is true.

Chu Lengyu was filled with doubts, but the two sets of memories would provide answers to each of her questions.

For example, the peerless sword in her hand, in Da Xia's memory, was a reward given by the system, and its cultivation level was synchronized with hers.

In Tianxuan Sect's memory, this was a treasure given by the patriarch when they worshipped the patriarch's statue upon entering the sect.

Because of her extremely high rank and immense power, she was sealed by her master. The seal would be broken once every time she advanced to a higher realm.

Lost in thought, the two had already arrived at Tingsongping by riding on their escape light.

This is one of the training grounds of the Tianxuan Sect, and it is also the venue for this year's sect competition.

Within the Tianxuan Sect, the sect's minor competition is held every three years, and the major competition is held every ten years.

Chu Lengyu looked at the flowers, plants, pavilions, and towers before her and felt a strong sense of familiarity.

Ji Lingchuan sighed beside her, "I still remember ten years ago, when my junior sister participated in the competition for the first time as a true disciple and won the championship. Now, ten years later, she has become an elder."

His eyes were smiling, and his words were sarcastic, but Chu Lengyu couldn't manage a smile.

Because this memory is also very detailed.

She can still recall how, when she was still young, she was ranked last among the many true disciples, was ostracized, and felt extremely resentful.

When registering for the sect competition, my senior brother kept encouraging and comforting me, saying that as long as I did my best, the ranking was not important.

But Chu Lengyu, who had just established his foundation, surprised everyone by defeating all his opponents and rightfully taking first place.

From then on, no one in the sect doubted her talent, her identity, or her treatment. Everyone called her an unparalleled genius, the best of her generation, and the Heavenly Profound Dao Child.

She then indeed advanced to the Golden Core stage and, overpowering all others, became the chief disciple of the Tianxuan Sect.

The frustration of being ostracized, the grievance of not being favored, the excitement of winning first place, the pride of breaking the record for the fastest Core Formation and Nascent Soul Formation...

Chu Lengyu remembered all of these details.

Overwhelmed by emotions, she was momentarily lost in thought.

Like a piece of white cloth thrown into a dye vat, it is dyed with various colors, some bright and some dull. If she had never seen this splendor, she would not have felt that the previous colors were tasteless.

There was everything here that she couldn't have imagined.

Ji Lingchuan watched the competition taking place on Tingsongping with great interest, occasionally offering his comments. This year's sect competition was quite interesting.

He suddenly realized that his junior sister hadn't spoken for a long time, so he turned his head to look at her.

Chu Lengyu happened to be looking over as well, and their gazes met, causing his heart to tremble.

She is an absolute beauty in the world, as pure as ice and as flawless as jade, untouched by the dust of the world.

At this moment, she was so close to him, yet so far away, as ethereal as an untouchable dream.

Chu Lengyu said softly, "Senior brother, have you ever heard the story of a whale?"

"She was lonely because the voices she made could not be heard by her kind."

"She wandered alone in a certain sea, singing every day, but she had no one of her kind to share with."

"Because her frequency is wrong, she is destined to be alone."

Ji Lingchuan listened quietly and then comforted him, saying, "That's not loneliness, that's being different."

“Yes, it’s different from others.” Chu Lengyu smiled, but the smile on her face was somewhat bleak, and her eyes were covered with a layer of pity and determination.

As soon as the words were spoken, the scene before them froze instantly.

She watched as everything of the Heavenly Profound Sect crumbled before her eyes, its magnificent buildings collapsing and turning into nothingness.

The calamity turned to dust, and only a bronze lamp slowly floated to her side.

"It's time to end this." She reached out her hand, and the candlelight instantly burned away the illusion.

Back in reality, Chu Lengyu was lost in thought, a lingering burning pain still in her heart.

No matter how many illusions there are, reality passes in the blink of an eye.

But she had no time for reflection; dark clouds were gathering overhead, and thunder rumbled faintly.
