Chapter 506: News From Lan Lang
Time flew by.
More than three months passed.
During this period of time, Qin Chuan no longer read in the Dao Technique Chamber.
After the paragons’ challenge, Qin Chuan knew that he couldn’t compare to those paragons in close combat.
Therefore, he went to Xu Longfei and asked him to find a few people with good close combat skills to fight with him so as to improve his close combat ability.
Although he had a cheat ability like Future Vision, he still had to have a way to deal with close combat.
That very same day, Xu Longfei arranged for a dozen Immortal King-level elders to be Qin Chuan’s sparring partners. He stopped at nothing and even activated the Mustard Domain.
The resources that were consumed in three months were unknown.
But, from this, it could be seen that Xu Longfei was willing to do anything to keep Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan’s comprehension ability was excellent, and he worked very hard. Other than needing to recover when his dharmic powers were exhausted, he spent the rest of his time fighting.
Three months in the outside world was hundreds of years in the Mustard Domain.
After countless battles, Qin Chuan could be said to have been reborn.
Although his cultivation did not increase, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.
Qin Chuan felt that if they were to fight these paragons again, he would definitely not be as passive as before.
However, while he was improving, others would certainly improve as well.
After all, no one would slack off in an involuted environment like the Immortal realm.
Besides, those who could make it onto the Chosen Roll also needed to work harder in addition to their extraordinary talent.
A great man once said that a genius was 1% talent and 99% perspiration.
After completing the transformation, Qin Chuan did not let these elders be his sparring partners for nothing.
After that, he gave each of them a divine art.
These elders were all Immortal Kings, so they basically had no use for ordinary things. Divine arts were still useful.
The power and effects of these divine arts were not very strong, but compared to the divine arts sold on the market in the Immortal Realm, the quality of these divine arts given by Qin Chuan was better.
The elders didn’t stand on ceremony, and their impression of Qin Chuan improved significantly.
Qin Chuan did this not only to thank them for being his sparring partners but also to improve relations.
In the future, if he were to go against the Beast Taming Corps, they might come and help him.
Having been in the Immortal realm for so long, Qin Chuan had gained a certain understanding of this massive and complicated society.
Apart from being very involuted, connections were especially important.
Xu Longfei was a good example.
Because he had good relations with people, he managed to poach dozens of Immortal Kings. Soon, the Luo Ding Sect rose from the bottom to the top.
This showed the importance of connections.
Now that there was no movement from the Beast Taming Corps on the Blue Planet, Qin Chuan had more time to build up his connections.
He already had a plan in mind.
He would start with the Changping realm.
The recent paragon challenge had left a deep impression on him in the hearts of the leaders of the various factions.
During the banquet, Lei Ji and the others brought up their descendants to Qin Chuan and asked him to meet them. If he liked them, they would become Dao companions.
Qin Chuan definitely wouldn’t do that.
However, there were many talents in his sect, and he could link these people to these factions.
Qin Chuan had already learned about it.
Upgrading the sect to level nine could unlock a new function called spatial teleportation.
At that time, all he needed to do was to mark the location, and he could use the system to teleport people over.
However, it was not easy to reach level nine.
The sect was currently at level seven.
The points required to level up reached 100 billion.
Qin Chuan currently had about 40 billion points.
It wasn’t difficult to raise the sect to level eight.
However, it required one trillion points to go from level eight to nine.
That was a little tough.
One trillion points was a big number.
There were about seven billion people on the Blue Planet. Even if they all participated in immortal cultivation, it would still take forever to accumulate one trillion points?
The Immortal realm was huge and had a large population. Moreover, not everyone cultivated. He could make use of all these humans—he didn’t want to waste this potential.
As far as Qin Chuan knew, the Luo Ding Sect controlled more than a trillion galaxies, but less than 40% of them were immortal cultivators.
The rest were considered ordinary people without the aptitude for immortal cultivation.
If he could recruit these people, he could easily achieve a trillion points.
Moreover, Qin Chuan felt that with his current identity, it wouldn’t be a problem for Xu Longfei to let him manage a few planets.
However, he had yet to come up with a reason.
On this day, the Great Elder of the third division came to look for him.
“Great Elder, why are you looking for me?” asked Qin Chuan.
“Because of the curse on you, of course.”
Startled, Qin Chuan subconsciously touched the curse imprint on his forehead.
Because he had been too busy recently, he had forgotten about this.
The Great Elder said, “I came as soon as I received news from Lan Lang.”
Qin Chuan asked curiously, “What did Big Brother say?”
“Lan Lang said that a holy monk is willing to help you, but on one condition.”
“What condition?” asked Qin Chuan eagerly.
Due to the curse on his body, he could not advance his cultivation. Although the impact was not great at the moment, the sooner he took care of it, the easier it would be.
The Great Elder stroked his beard and said, “Because something has happened in the Buddhist Sect recently, few holy monks will choose to take action.
“Lan Lang visited many Buddhist sects before he found this one monk.
“However, this holy monk has a condition. You need to head to the Buddhist holy land alone without an escort.”
“Alone?” asked Qin Chuan in surprise.
The Great Elder nodded solemnly. “Then the holy monk said that the Buddha only helps those who are fated. If you can reach the holy land, it means that you and the Buddha are fated.
“Only then will he be willing to help you overcome the calamity.”
Qin Chuan thought about it seriously.
Actually, he was fine with going alone. Given his current ability, only people above the Golden Immortal realm could threaten him.
Even if such people came to harm him, he would have a way to escape.
However, his current identity was a little special, and some people might not agree.
Qin Chuan said, “Great Elder, I’m fine with that, but I’m afraid… the Sect Master will object.”
The Great Elder frowned in thought and stroked his beard. Then, he said, “I’ll speak to the Sect Master. It shouldn’t be a big problem.
“However, I think you have to consider the matter of going to the Buddhist holy land carefully.
“It is tens of millions of light-years away from us.
“Although the teleportation array can shorten the time, it’s a long journey after all. No one can be sure that the journey will be smooth and calm. There will definitely be some risks.”
Qin Chuan nodded. “You are right.
“But, since it was my mistake, I should resolve it myself.
“Moreover, I also want to see what the real Immortal realm is like to broaden my horizons. At the same time, I can also have a chance to meet the elites of the Immortal Realm.
“This is a good opportunity to travel around.”
The Great Elder did not reply.
He was aware of Qin Chuan’s strength, but it was still a long journey, and the risk was still high.
“I’ll go look for the Sect Master first.
“If you have really thought it through, I will support you, but you must be careful.
“Although the Immortal Realm seems peaceful, that’s not the case.
Letting you go alone would actually be very helpful to your experience.
“However, you have to bear the risks yourself,” said the Great Elder.
The first time he saw Qin Chuan, the Great Elder had taken a fancy to him.
However, Lan Lang intercepted him.
The Great Elder respected Qin Chuan’s choice of strength, but he still had his concerns. He was afraid that Qin Chuan would encounter danger that he couldn’t resolve.
However, the Buddhist Sect’s situation was special. Now a holy monk was willing to take action, and there might only be one such person. Therefore, he had to discuss it seriously with the Sect Master.
Before long, the Great Elder left.
