In the afternoon, Zhang Yi, having just joined the Northern Dipper Holy Land, naturally began by understanding the Holy Land's rules.
He also took control of the Zhang Family disciples who had joined the Northern Dipper Holy Land earlier.
Regardless of his current surge of Luck, his identity alone as the grandson of the Zhang Family's Second Elder made managing these Disciples incredibly easy.
Zhang Yi was leisurely lying on a wooden chair, beginning to Cultivate the Cultivation Technique bestowed by Ling Lao from the jade pendant, while also waiting for the Zhang Family disciples to arrive.
However, for a time, his attention was entirely focused on this so-called 'Divine Cultivation Technique'.
“Ling Lao, are you sure this is a normal cultivation method?”
After reading it, Zhang Yi's mouth twitched, and his eyelids jumped.
This cultivation method was a Spirit Refining technique, capable of Spirit Refining in the Spirit Platform Realm, which was enough to be called a Divine Cultivation Technique.
However, this Spirit Refining method emphasized stimulating one's inner self to temper the Divine Soul.
The first layer was relatively normal: challenging dangerous situations.
By the second layer, it became strange: finding a Dao Companion and personally witnessing her humiliation.
The third layer was even more peculiar: inviting many friends... and then...
Uh, how should I put it, sweat began to trickle down Zhang Yi's forehead.
“Young Master Yi, you are still too young!”
“If this Spirit Refining method is Cultivated to a profound level, reaching the Saint Realm in the future is hopeful, and even higher Realms can be easily attained.”
“By that time, matters of male and female affection will just be minor Daos. You must know that all waiting yields results.”
Ling Lao's ancient voice echoed in Zhang Yi's mind.
At this moment, he always felt that Ling Lao's voice was filled with a sense of endless stories.
However, Zhang Yi was quite perceptive and dared not ask too many questions.
But Ling Lao saw through Zhang Yi's subtle thoughts and calmly smiled, saying:
“Young Master Yi, I got married when I was twenty, and obtained this Spirit Refining method when I was a hundred. At that time, I was just a small Divine Power Realm cultivator.”
“But after Cultivating this method, I entered the Dao Palace Realm within twenty years and achieved Great Power Realm within fifty years!”
“A hundred years later, I achieved the King Realm, at which point I was unrivaled, and people called me the Spiritual Turtle King!”
After hearing Ling Lao's experiences, Zhang Yi was quite shocked, and his inner world was opened to a vast new perspective.
A King Realm at two hundred years old; only those Eternal Families would produce such Prodigies.
And Ling Lao, at the age of one hundred, was merely an ordinary cultivator.
“Forget it, forget it. With such a Cultivation method, once I Cultivate it deeply, why worry about not having women!”
Zhang Yi took a deep breath, about to close his eyes and Cultivate.
Just then, a knock sounded at the door.
Through his spiritual sense, he knew that the ones outside were Zhang Family disciples.
“Enter!!”
The door opened, and the Disciple outside immediately spoke upon entering:
“Young Master Yi, I just found out that Xu Ying of the Xu Family intercepted an Inner Sect Elder at noon, and not long ago, he just returned to the Outer Sect area.”
“As for his Cultivation progress, he is only in the Opening Spirit Realm.”
“Xu Long and Xu Hu of the Xu Family have been suppressing our Zhang Family outside; now that Young Master Yi has arrived, you will surely be able to trample all the Xu Family members underfoot.”
Listening to these flattering words, Zhang Yi couldn't help but reveal his arrogance.
Trampling the Xu Family Disciples in the Northern Dipper Holy Land underfoot was just the first step; becoming an Inner Sect Disciple was the second step.
It was even possible to become a True Disciple or Saint in the future.
Just as Zhang Yi began to envision his future, a female voice faintly emerged beside his ear.
“You, are you Zhang Yi?”
As this voice fell, Zhang Yi felt as if his entire body's hair stood on end, and a shiver ran through him.
Ling Lao's aura also instantly severed from him.
“May I ask which Holy Land Senior has arrived? Zhang Yi of the Zhang Family greets Senior!!”
Zhang Yi's mind worked quickly, and he immediately lowered his head in a show of weakness.
In the Void Realm, a woman in red stood in the air; it was none other than the Inner Sect Elder, Yan Ruyi!
“Interesting, was that a Divine Soul fluctuation just now?”
“I didn't expect that kid really didn't lie to me.”
“Excluding the possibility of a Great Power Realm's Possession, could it be a remnant soul possessing him~”
Yan Ruyi's expression was indifferent, and thinking of the Divine Soul fluctuation in the Void Realm just now, a smile couldn't help but curl at the corner of her lips.
If it was the latter, then she was about to strike it rich.
A Great Power Realm's remnant soul was very valuable.
Not to mention the Cultivation Techniques and Secret Manuals contained within the remnant soul, it was also possible to obtain many hidden secrets.
It would be a good thing for both her personally and for the Holy Land.
“Take out the jade pendant hanging around your neck and give it to me.”
Yan Ruyi stepped forward to Zhang Yi, extending a hand from above.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi froze, looking up with a surprised expression.
He subconsciously tightened his grip on the jade pendant around his neck, and also saw who the Elder in front of him was.
“What a beautiful woman!!”
Zhang Yi was momentarily stunned upon seeing Yan Ruyi, only then remembering her purpose.
She wanted to take the jade pendant containing Ling Lao's remnant soul?!
Could it be that Ling Lao had been discovered by a Great Power Realm of the Holy Land?
“Give it to me!” Yan Ruyi took another step closer, and the Great Power Realm Realm pressure on her instantly converged to a single point.
This time, Zhang Yi felt an aura like a fierce storm, and his breathing hitched.
“Boom!!”
The next second, a massive force of Divine Soul pulled Zhang Yi back to reality.
Ling Lao's voice echoed in his mind: “Let me possess you, run!!”
“This is a Great Power Realm Realm Elder!!”
Zhang Yi let go of his mental defenses, Ling Lao's Divine Soul possessed him, and Zhang Yi's aura began to skyrocket.
Divine Bridge! Other Shore! Four Symbols! Dao Palace!
Ling Lao's incomplete Divine Soul was truly fighting for its life, unleashing its full power.
Although it was only the Dao Palace Realm, it already possessed a hint of self-preservation ability.
“Spiritual Turtle Anomaly!!”
Ling Lao controlled Zhang Yi's body, and a Dao Palace anomaly projected into the Void Realm, enveloping the entire small courtyard.
Then Zhang Yi himself grandly disappeared from his original spot.
“It truly is a remnant soul!”
“Unleashing Divine Soul power to possess him?”
“But a mere Dao Palace Realm, still trying to run?!”
Yan Ruyi beamed with joy, already considering the fleeing Zhang Yi as good as caught.
“Ling Lao, why did we provoke a Great Power Realm Realm Elder?!”
“You ask me, who should I ask?!”
“Then what should we do? Can we escape?”
Zhang Yi's words were filled with worry, being pursued by an Inner Sect Elder of the Northern Dipper Holy Land.
If he were to escape now, he would likely be on the Holy Land's wanted list tomorrow.
At that time, even the Zhang Family would be implicated because of him.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi's mouth was filled with bitterness.
Ling Lao, however, didn't care about the Zhang Family or anything; after all, it wasn't his family.
“A mere Great Power Realm Realm; if I were in my prime, I'd suppress her with one hand!”
“Hateful! Hateful!”
“A junior girl is actually so arrogant!!”
Ling Lao could sense the gaze behind him that had not disappeared, truly like thorns in his back.
He also knew that if he fell into the hands of the Northern Dipper Holy Land, there would likely be no way out for him.
