Han Xuanji looked at the gray energy mass in front of him and nodded secretly: "No wonder ancient records state that some existences who reach the extreme will conceive the idea of 'destruction' or 'creation'. This is not entirely self-destructive madness, but also a form of exploration of the Dao Origin."
The birth and destruction of a world both yield many benefits.
For powerful cultivators pursuing the Dao, resorting to any means necessary to advance further is not a difficult thing to understand.
Since it was a product of the System, refining this object was naturally not difficult for Han Xuanji.
As the energy mass merged into Han Xuanji's body.
His comprehension of various Daos, especially his understanding of world structure and the operation of Heavenly Dao Law, deepened at an unprecedented speed.
Time flew by rapidly during his deep seclusion.
One hundred years later.
When the last trace of World Origin was completely refined and absorbed, the aura around Han Xuanji had reached a critical point, and he achieved a smooth Breakthrough without encountering any obstructions.
"Hoo... I've reached the ninth layer of the
Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal."
Han Xuanji opened his eyes, and within them, countless worlds seemed to instantly appear and perish.
He felt that his control over power and his understanding of the Dao had both ascended to a brand new level.
Although his Realm had not yet achieved a Breakthrough to Celestial Golden Immortal Realm, his Realm was advancing by leaps and bounds.
Breaking through two Realms in just one hundred years was an unimaginable feat for any other Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal.
While Han Xuanji was in seclusion, Jiang Hao had successfully returned to the Jiang Family.
The azure he brought back successfully healed Old Ancestor Linyuan's Dao foundation injury, making him a great contributor to the Jiang Family.
He received the full support of the Family, and his own Cultivation also advanced rapidly, now firmly established at the Golden Immortal Peak, making him high-spirited and vigorous.
On this day.
Jiang Hao resolutely bid farewell to the Family members who tried to keep him and returned to the Lingxu Heavenly Palace.
His first priority was naturally to come to the Myriad Phenomena Garden to catch up with everyone.
When he once again felt the even denser Spiritual Qi within the Garden, he couldn't help but smile.
Su Ming, his good brother, came to greet him, immediately wrapping an arm around his shoulder and saying: "You finally decided to come back?"
"Brother Su, you are also about to step into this stage?" Jiang Hao was stunned when he saw Su Ming's Cultivation.
He thought his own progress was fast enough, but he didn't expect Su Ming to be no slower than him!
Su Ming glanced at him, looking extremely smug, as if merely stating the simplest of facts: "Senior Brother Han casually offered a few pointers, how could Cultivating not be easy?"
A hundred years had passed, and the people in the Myriad Phenomena Garden had never relaxed their practice.
With the addition of Han You and Little Red, the pressure on everyone had actually increased.
There was no need to mention the latter; it was the second strongest person designated by Han Xuanji, and it's strength was unfathomable.
Su Ming had challenged it before, but he basically couldn't even touch a feather on it, let alone defeat it.
Han You, initially unfamiliar with his own strength, had lost to Su Ming, who was still in the Golden Immortal Realm.
After receiving guidance from the others, relying on his Taiyi Golden Immortal strength, he was already ranked third.
Jiang Hao couldn't help but ask: "What about the others?"
Su Ming chuckled: "Naturally, they are not bad either. Even Little White Tiger has become a Golden Immortal now."
Since Han Xuanji was dissatisfied with their strength, his minimum requirement for his Disciples now was at least achieving the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm.
To this end, Han Xuanji would sometimes multitask, using his Incarnation to preach the Dao to them, and if they had any questions regarding their practice, they could freely consult him.
Even Little White Tiger was fed many Heaven And Earth Treasures by him.
Under these circumstances, the Cultivation of everyone in the Myriad Phenomena Garden advanced by leaps and bounds.
Among them, Su Ming seemed to have gained sudden enlightenment, and the speed of his Cultivation improvement was astonishing; he was already on the verge of achieving a Breakthrough to Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Han Xuanji, however, saw the changes in Su Ming's body.
Su Ming's Physique seemed to have been Sealed by someone, so his innate talent was not particularly strong at first.
Perhaps because of Han Xuanji, he had begun the Awakening of his true Physique.
As the changes occurred in Su Ming, his value also rose rapidly, and the number of simulations reached thirty, which made it difficult for Han Xuanji to maintain composure.
"Alas, it's a pity I already have a master; otherwise, I would have long since taken Senior Brother Han as my master..." Su Ming said seemingly casually.
This precisely reminded Jiang Hao, whose heart rate accelerated: "That's right..."
He had always been grateful for Han Xuanji's life-saving grace and guidance, previously viewing Han Xuanji as an unfathomably powerful Senior Brother.
But only now, upon hearing Su Ming's "unintentional" hint, did he suddenly realize.
Since he had never formally taken a master, an unprecedented idea, like a seed, began to wildly sprout in his heart.
He had always thought about how to repay the favor and sought Opportunities to become stronger, yet he had never considered that perhaps... staying by Senior Brother Han's side and following him was, in itself, the greatest Opportunity.
Similarly, only by becoming stronger could he truly help Senior Brother Han, instead of continuously being an existence that required protection and charity.
Furthermore, with the precedent set by Lu Fan and the others, Jiang Hao suddenly saw the light and felt much more relaxed.
Holding this intention, after exchanging pleasantries with Su Ming, Jiang Hao headed toward Han Xuanji's place of seclusion.
"Come in." Just as he arrived outside the pavilion, Han Xuanji's voice drifted out.
Jiang Hao took a deep breath, adjusted his robes, and pushed the door open.
Han Xuanji had already stepped out of the quiet room, his aura harmonious and restrained, seemingly merged with the entire world, giving people an unfathomable feeling, like facing the vast starry sea.
He had just finished his seclusion, and his Realm was already stable at the ninth layer of the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal.
The divine light in his eyes was gentle as he calmly watched Jiang Hao walk in.
"Senior Brother Han." Jiang Hao bowed respectfully.
"Mm, it seems the Jiang Family matter is settled, and your Cultivation has advanced quite a bit." Han Xuanji nodded slightly, his tone flat, revealing no emotion.
Jiang Hao raised his head, looking at Han Xuanji, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
He no longer hesitated, taking a step back and straightening his attire.
Then, under Han Xuanji's slightly surprised gaze, he solemnly knelt on both knees, bowing his head in kowtow.
"Jiang Hao is dull-witted.
In the past, I only knew to be grateful for Senior Brother's life-saving grace and guidance, but failed to grasp its deeper meaning..." Jiang Hao's voice held a trace of excitement but was incredibly clear and firm.
"Jiang Hao is unworthy, but I wish to enter your tutelage and serve as a Disciple.
I humbly request you accept me! From now on, I will diligently Cultivate without fail, strictly obey your commands, and never fail to live up to your teachings!"
After speaking, he maintained the kowtow posture and waited quietly, filled with both anticipation and a trace of unease, unsure how Han Xuanji would respond.
Han Xuanji looked at Jiang Hao kneeling on the ground, a trace of understanding flashing in his eyes.
In Jiang Hao's simulation, he also took him as a master.
Isn't he just a person of great Luck?
Since he is already in the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal Realm, he is not afraid of incurring this slight Karma.
Not long after, Han Xuanji slowly spoke, his voice still flat, but carrying an unquestionable power: "Since you are sincere, I shall accept you.
From today onward, you are my sixth Disciple."
There were no excessive tests; everything came naturally.
However, thinking of the things Jiang Hao would encounter in the future, Han Xuanji had some calculations in his heart.
Demon Race... just wait!
