Vol 7 Chapter 26: Fate and Fortune
Lin Jing's explanation did not arouse suspicion from the three sect masters of Invincible Sect.
After all, such things were not uncommon in the cultivation world.
Personal Fortune was a very mysterious thing.
Following the flow of Personal Fortune was definitely more beneficial than harmful.
Every cultivator proficient in the Way of Personal Fortune would often make so strange choices.
For example, there was a True Immortal skilled in the Way of Personal Fortune who sent his daughter to a declining small family early on, allowing her to grow up there. Many years later, this declining small family actually produced an Immortal King expert, and the daughter who was sent there beca the Immortal King's wife early on, eventually borrowing his fortune to beco a powerful expert herself.
Therefore, Lin Jing's claim that Invincible Sect possessed extraordinary Personal Fortune and that he wanted to join to seek an opportunity to break through to Immortal Lord was very reasonable, and Sect Master Wu firmly believed that Invincible Sect indeed possessed great fortune!
There was no other reason - all the core cultivators of Invincible Sect were mbers of the Wu Family, and the Wu Family had produced powerful experts among their ancestors!
The reason they ca to this godforsaken ancestral land after their family declined and established Invincible Sect was precisely hoping that their ancestral graves would emit auspicious smoke, allowing the Wu Family to beco great again.
So if Lin Jing used this reasoning with others, they might have so doubts, but for Invincible Sect, it was like a frog looking at mung beans - a perfect match!
Because, in truth, the Wu Family mbers didn't know how to utilize this fortune to transform it into strength for the Wu Family and Invincible Sect.
Now, with a cultivator proficient in the Way of Personal Fortune arriving to join Invincible Sect, perhaps he could point the way for them.
After dismissing the others, the three True Immortal sect masters asked Lin Jing:
"Fellow Daoist, since you can see that this place and our Invincible Sect possess extraordinary Personal Fortune, do you know how to effectively utilize this fortune?"
"To be honest with you, Fellow Daoist, our Invincible Sect has been here for so ti, but we haven't felt any fortune bonuses."
Lin Jing, after all, was a cultivator from a land established through fortune, dealing extensively with Personal Fortune from Hidden Dragon Secret Techniques to the Destiny Rankings. Although the Way of Personal Fortune wasn't his main cultivation path and he wasn't as proficient as the Gu Family mbers, he had his own advantages.
His main body had borne Heaven's Mandate, making him the strongest fortune bearer.
His incarnation possessed Royal Level Heavenly Demon bloodline, and the Heavenly Demon bloodline specifically countered fortune.
In addition, the chanized Turtle's extre divine consciousness talent and his own powerful Ti Dao attainnts allowed Lin Jing's third body to better perform fortune observation techniques.
All these factors combined made his third body quite a master in the Way of Personal Fortune, far beyond ordinary cultivators.
"Because this fortune power hasn't been fully activated yet." Lin Jing observed for a while before frowning.
"What do you an by that?" Sect Master Wu asked, confused.
"This fortune power might require Invincible Sect to produce an Immortal King to be fully activated, and this Immortal King cannot be an outsider - it must be of your Wu Family bloodline!"
"Immortal King..." Sect Master Wu felt dizzy.
The other two deputy sect masters nearly spat out blood.
If it required an Immortal Lord, the three of them could still strive for it.
But Immortal King...
Currently in the Immortal Realm, there were only nine Immortal Emperors, and Immortal King was the strongest realm below Immortal Emperor. If there was hope of producing an Immortal King, would the Wu Family have declined to this state?
"Fellow Daoist, that condition of yours, how many forces can achieve it?" The female deputy Wu Family mber smiled bitterly. "Even for an Immortal King heritage, producing another Immortal King is extrely difficult, let alone a small sect like Invincible Sect."
"Indeed." The other deputy Wu Family mber who appeared elderly shook his head helplessly. "Don't even ntion Immortal King - aside from us three, others might need great effort just to reach the Immortal Realm."
Lin Jing said: "The condition is indeed difficult, but thinking from another perspective, this fortune power requiring the Immortal King realm to be initially utilized precisely indicates that your Wu Family ancestor was not an ordinary cultivator, and the fortune left behind must contain astonishing secrets."
Those who could be associated with the Secret Path were either the powerful expert who opened the Secret Path, or the Movent Cosmos Sect Immortal King who accidentally discovered the Secret Path and his descendants.
But Lin Jing had t the Movent Cosmos Sect Master, and this fortune, this Wu Family bloodline, had no connection with Movent Cosmos Sect.
Therefore, it could only be related to the opener of the Secret Path.
Although he didn't know what thod the other party used to open the Secret Path, this thod was at least equivalent to an Immortal Emperor combined with a Heavenly Dao's Supre Treasure!
This was truly terrifying.
This Wu Family ancestor might possibly be an Immortal Emperor, but because too much ti had passed, possibly belonging to the previous epoch like the Immortal Palace ancestor, causing later generations to forget. After all, no one knew how long this Secret Path had existed.
Lin Jing didn't expect to make such a major discovery just after entering the Immortal Realm. He was also very curious about what kind of destiny would appear when the Wu Family fully activated this fortune power.
And what benefits he could gain from it.
"No matter." Lin Jing said: "One should still have dreams. Who is the most talented prodigy in your Invincible Sect? Why not have him beco my disciple? With my guidance, reaching Immortal King isn't impossible."
The overall talent of Invincible Sect was indeed not high.
Although the three before him were all True Immortals, with many at the Seeking the Dao stage, one must rember that this was the Immortal Realm, where Immortal Spiritual Energy filled heaven and earth. In such an excellent cultivation environnt, reaching Seeking the Dao wasn't difficult...
Native cultivators in the Immortal Realm found it much easier to reach Seeking the Dao compared to those in the Lower Realm.
But after reaching Seeking the Dao, they weren't as good as Lower Realm cultivators.
Because cultivating in the Immortal Realm, the earlier realms hardly encountered any bottlenecks, causing many Immortal Realm cultivators to have unstable Dao hearts and untempered Daos.
This led to relatively major setbacks at the Seeking the Dao stage.
Additionally, the immortal tribulations in the Immortal Realm were much more powerful than the Ascension Tribulations in the Lower Realm.
This made it even more difficult for Immortal Realm cultivators to beco immortals.
Environntal influences ant that native Immortal Realm cultivators' final achievents weren't necessarily better than those who ascended from the Lower Realm.
This was why many major sects preferred cultivators who ascended from the Lower Realm - they had endured more hardships, had more experiences, guaranteed talent, and could go further!
But none of this mattered. What Lin Jing lacked least was ti - he could cultivate slowly. Currently, he didn't lack resources much either. Having cultivated so many Pet Beasts with Immortal King potential, cultivating an Immortal King realm disciple might not be impossible.
"This..." Sect Master Wu felt overwheld. He didn't doubt whether Lin Jing's strength could teach a disciple well - having a Wu Family prodigy beco the disciple of such an expert was a good thing that could strengthen the relationship between Lin Jing and Invincible Sect.
However, he noticed that Lin Jing's tone was even more boastful than theirs.
A True Immortal at the Ninth Heaven wanting to teach an Immortal King... wasn't that a bit too invincible?
"Is there a problem?" Lin Jing asked.
"No problem. I have a descendant, twenty-eight years of cultivation age, at Seeking the Dao cultivation, probably the most talented cultivator in our Invincible Sect." The female deputy sect master spoke: "Just..."
"Just what?"
"Just that she isn't very enthusiastic about combat and cultivation, spoiled and accustod to luxury, obsessed with fighting insects, fighting chickens, and fighting beasts every day, gambling money with other cultivators. It's truly hateful, wasting her natural talent. I don't know how she picked up these bad habits."
