Decades ago, the Zhou Family produced an extremely terrifying expert named Zhou Hualong.
Although this person had a short time in the public eye, he traversed the world, especially dominating the surrounding countries of Dragon Country, earning the title of Zhou Wudi.
It is said that this person was merely a traitor of the Zhou Family.
If a family's traitor possesses such terrifying strength, what could the true power of the Zhou Family be?
"Master, do I really have no chance to break through the Celestial Gate?"
The Bone Spirit Tiger gritted his teeth and said.
After the Celestial Gate opened, his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and though it was still just martial arts, once he unleashed the power of his bloodline, he possessed terrifying power akin to having the Divine Dragon upon him.
He was surrounded by auras of blood, and behind him, a phantom of the Divine Dragon began to take shape.
The Divine Dragon had six heads, and each head was said to possess the power of thousands, although it's somewhat exaggerated, the divine power was real.
"Everything in the world is interconnected. It's not as simple as you think. On this path, cultivation makes one a genius, but on other paths, it may not be the same."
"To break through the Celestial Gate, one must not only cultivate one path, but walk through all paths to become a true master of the Celestial Gate.
I know you have always been proud, believing your martial skills are invincible, but I have also taught you the Curse Technique — did you ever learn it?"
Lu Zhenghun looked at the Bone Spirit Tiger with calm eyes, devoid of any mockery or praise, merely stating facts.
Hearing this, the Bone Spirit Tiger was slightly stunned, opened his mouth as if to argue, but finally sighed softly, saying nothing more.
The Master was right; although he succeeded on this path, it did not mean he would succeed on others.
"The Southern Feng Shui school is a treasure trove, whether it is Feng Shui, Array Profound Communication, or even curses, the stronger the talent, the more divine techniques can be cultivated.
Do you think Zhou Kuangtian does not understand the principle of biting off more than you can chew?
He knows better than anyone, but he also understands that the Celestial Gate is merely a beginning. To break through the Mystic Sect and gain the qualification to impact the Celestial Gate, the stronger the foundation, the greater the chances, so we are hesitant to cross the Mystic Sect, aiming to establish a deeper foundation.
In this way, there will be a greater probability of breaking through the Celestial Gate in the future."
The Bone Spirit Tiger suddenly widened his eyes, never having thought his Master, who had not yet entered the Celestial Gate, was already considering the path beyond the Mystic Sect.
There were so many mysteries in cultivation that if not for his Master's foresight, would he have missed his chance?
Someone like him, without a Master's guidance since childhood, relying solely on his talent for arduous cultivation, seemed brave but was actually reckless and foolish.
These were things he would never have had the chance to learn if his Master hadn't taught him.
And even if he knew, it would already be too late.
Thinking of this, the Bone Spirit Tiger suddenly knelt down again, looking at Lu Zhenghun with great excitement, his face full of admiration.
"Master, does this mean that this person named Lin Beichen is not that remarkable either, even though he has crossed the Mystic Sect, his foundation is too weak?"
The Bone Spirit Tiger tentatively asked, but Lu Zhenghun shook his head in response.
"This method and philosophy of cultivation I devised only apply to me personally. My talent among true experts and geniuses is merely ordinary.
Above me, there are true geniuses. Their talents are beyond the ordinary person's imagination. Even I dare not underestimate them, and this person crossed the Mystic Sect at such a young age, likely making him the type of genius I spoke of."
"Ordinary people must progress step by step, climbing upwards, while some can leap a thousand miles in one step, soaring high like a great roc spreading its wings.
In the face of such people's talents, we can only sigh at the injustices of the world, but apart from that, we must accept the world's harshness."
Hearing this, the Bone Spirit Tiger's face turned slightly pale.
According to the Master, does he not stand a chance against this person?
He hadn't expected his Master to hold this person in such high regard. Clearly, they were of the same age; how could he possess such superb talent?
Just then, a man walked in from outside, dressed in fiery red attire with some special equipment from the eastern forest kingdom, looking quite distinctive.
"Master, a distinguished guest from Xiang Island wishes to visit you."
"What does a family from Xiang Island have to do with us?"
The Bone Spirit Tiger said coldly, intending to reject on behalf of the Master, but Lu Zhenghun slowly stood up, walking towards the door, patting the Bone Spirit Tiger on the shoulder.
"This person has to be seen. It seems that some cannot remain still and plan to deal with Lin Beichen."
Upon hearing this, the Bone Spirit Tiger paused momentarily and suddenly realized.
Zhou Kuangtian had just died, and now someone from Xiang Island came for a visit, clearly seeking assistance.
And seeking help at this time, especially from a cultivator, could only be related to this person named Lin Beichen.
As Lu Zhenghun walked out the door, the Bone Spirit Tiger hurried to follow, speaking respectfully:
"Master, is this also part of your plan?"
"Although I couldn't defeat Zhou Kuangtian back then, I left some measures in place. He had considered Xiang Island his forbidden land, not allowing anyone else to interfere.
His strength may be vast, but I could see he was forcibly occupying the Heaven and Earth Qi, which would eventually backfire, so I left a few hidden stakes to wait for an opportunity. I just didn't expect this move would come to be used here."
