Chapter 30

Mount Long, evening.

Lin Yuan, dressed in a gray standard Taoist robe, walked to a giant rock and stopped.

"Ten years have passed."

Lin Yuan sat on the giant rock, immersed in a brief contemplation.

In the span of ten years, Lin Yuan had gained a profound understanding of this world.

In this world, the cultivation system was divided into nine grades, from the lowest ninth grade to the highest first grade. Beyond the first grade was the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

The strong in the Celestial Phenomenon Realm were said to be able to encompass heaven and earth, comprehend the Qi of all things, and shake mountains with a wave of their hand.

Even in the Universal Human Alliance, they would be considered second-tier combat power.

From this perspective, Lin Yuan confirmed that the hierarchy of this world was higher than the martial world he had encountered in his first traversal.

"Seventy more years of residence."

Lin Yuan glanced at the virtual text below his line of sight.

[Name: Zhang Shanfeng (Lin Yuan)]

[Identity: Controller of the Door to the Myriad Realms]

[Bound Talent: Unrivaled Insight]

[Current Status: Conscious Descent]

[Residence Time: Eighty Years]

Perhaps due to the increase in strength and the different world rank, Lin Yuan's residence time this time had increased from twenty years to eighty years.

Lin Yuan was quite satisfied with this. Under the backdrop of the conscious descent, the longer the residence time, the better.

"Celestial Phenomenon Realm."

Lin Yuan closed his eyes slightly, sensing the slow operation of the true power within his body.

In ten years, Lin Yuan had naturally not been idle.

With the Unrivaled Insight, Lin Yuan reached the first-grade realm in just three years, corresponding to the Unrestrained Realm in the martial world.

Then, five years later, Lin Yuan smoothly entered the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, becoming one of the top-notch experts of his generation.

Of course, all of this was done covertly by Lin Yuan, and the others on Mount Long were unaware.

"Still need to stay low-key."

Lin Yuan sighed lightly, thinking to himself.

The Tian Shi Sect of Mount Long was the ancestral land of the Daoist sects in the world, with an unfathomable foundation.

At least, after breaking through to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, Lin Yuan vaguely sensed that there were a few places on Mount Long where there were breaths surpassing the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

"Slow cultivation."

"Since the residence time is long this time, there's no need to rush."

It wasn't just in this generation that the Tian Shi Sect hadn't produced a Celestial Master.

It had been five hundred years since the last Celestial Master passed away.

"The Celestial Master."

Lin Yuan gazed calmly from a distance.

Based on his understanding over the past ten years, the real realm of the Celestial Master of the Tian Shi Sect should surpass the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

As for how to become a Celestial Master, it seemed to involve some kind of test.

The specific nature of the test, Lin Yuan didn't know for now.

This was already the most confidential secret of the Tian Shi Sect, and only Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts were likely to know.

"How to surpass the Celestial Phenomenon Realm."

Lin Yuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Ever since he entered the Celestial Phenomenon Realm two years ago, Lin Yuan had noticed that his cultivation speed had slowed down significantly.

At this rate, even with the Unrivaled Insight, Lin Yuan would need at least fifty years to break through the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

This was quite strange.

Even with Lin Yuan's Unrivaled Insight, it took fifty years to break through. For others, even if they were exceptionally talented, it would take at least two or three hundred years, if not five hundred years.

However, as far as Lin Yuan knew, each generation of Celestial Masters never exceeded one hundred years of age.

"Could there be a shortcut?"

Lin Yuan speculated inwardly, casting another inconspicuous glance in several directions.

Those directions were where Lin Yuan had sensed the presence of energies surpassing the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.

"Is it about the Mountain Peak?" Elder Pingyang looked up at Lin Yuan, a smile appearing on his face. "Considering the days, in another half a month, it will be the Tian Shi Sect once-every-twenty-years trip to the Sword Tomb."

"Make sure to perform well then; it will be highly beneficial for your future."

Elder Pingyang spoke with a deep meaning.

"The Sword Tomb trip?"

A ripple stirred in Lin Yuan's heart.

If it were someone else saying this, Lin Yuan might not have cared much. However, Elder Pingyang was a guardian of the Tian Shi Sect and one of the three Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts.

His understanding of the Tian Shi Sect was undoubtedly far beyond Lin Yuan's.

Such a person emphasizing the Sword Tomb trip and even urging Lin Yuan to perform well implied deeper implications.

"Thank you for the reminder, Elder Pingyang."

Although Lin Yuan wasn't clear about what the Sword Tomb trip truly entailed, he respectfully saluted Elder Pingyang.

Over the past ten years, Elder Pingyang had taken care of him, especially when he was first brought to Mount Long.

While Elder Longqing took care of him, Elder Pingyang had secretly used his Celestial Phenomenon True Qi to cleanse Lin Yuan's body a few times.

Elder Pingyang believed that Lin Yuan, being young, was unaware of these matters, but Lin Yuan, with the consciousness that descended upon him, was fully aware of everything since his birth.
