Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 1492 - 656: A Golden Opportunity (2)

At this point, he glanced at Lin Xuankong behind Miao Yun Lake, his expression subtly shifting, "Director Miao, have you already found this Brother Lin? However, the task we are about to undertake is quite dangerous, how come you’ve brought him along too?"

For Ding Ye, who had previously encountered Lin Xuankong at the Profound Immortal Tavern, the impression was quite profound.

Miao Yun Lake shook his head and squeezed out a smile once again, "No, I didn’t find him, this fellow returned home by himself yesterday! As for him following along...youthful vigor, he said he wanted to come and see the world, to witness the real methods of immortals and demons!"

Seeing Miao Yun Lake say this, Ding Ye couldn’t help but look at Lin Xuankong and laughed:

"Brother Lin truly has great courage, as far as I know, this time the task is extremely dangerous and may require us to confront the demons of the Ai Race, so most of the soldiers here have come because of their superiors’ orders and had no choice but to brace themselves to deal with those demons from the Ai Race!

You’re probably the only one who has voluntarily come to see the demons and their demon techniques, Brother Lin!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong nodded slightly towards Ding Ye,

For the talented and straightforward Ding Ye, Lin Xuankong had quite a favorable impression, but recently, he was busy improving his own cultivation and had temporarily set aside the matter of accepting Ding Ye as a disciple.

Miao Yun Lake then clasped his hands in salute to Ding Ye, moved to the side and gathered the inspectors who had come over with dozens of transport vehicles, and went to report over at the command post!

After watching Miao Yun Lake leave, Ding Ye turned his head to Lin Xuankong, pointed towards the command post and said in a low voice: "The Immortal Venerable Liang Butong, who once appeared in the battle at Chaokou Pass, is currently in the command post. That is a true immortal, possessing incredibly fearsome immortal techniques, able to instantly transform into a giant three meters tall! If Brother Lin is interested, I’ll take you for a stroll near the command post later, maybe you can witness the elegance of Immortal Venerable Liang Butong yourself!"

Lin Xuankong looked up, seeing the surroundings already filled with a large number of soldiers setting up barracks, and the command post placed at the central position among dozens of defense battalion camps, guarded by tens of thousands of soldiers. The time was approaching dusk, yet in the dozens of camps around, lights were already on, with many officers going in and out of the command post, clearly indicating that the commanders of this great battle were arranging tasks for the various defense battalions and the inspection bureau.

"I won’t be viewing the elegance of that Immortal Venerable for now!" Lin Xuankong shook his head slightly, looked at Ding Ye intently, and continued, "Director Ding, now that you know there are real cultivators in this world, have you ever thought of one day abandoning your position and the comfort, wealth, and warmth of mundane life, and embarking on that rather perilous path of cultivating immortality?"

Hearing Lin Xuankong speak, Ding Ye showed a surprised expression and found himself somewhat lost in thought.

Several seconds later, this officer, who had recently been promoted to regular training, spoke somewhat longingly, "Brother Lin is joking with Ding Ye, right! All the citizens in the Great Yan Kingdom, including the people from the other seven countries on this continent, already know that true immortal beings exist in this world, and the status and abilities that these Immortal Venerables possess are far beyond those of any worldly authority or wealth!

Which of those Immortal Venerables can a small regular like me compare to? Which of those Immortal Venerables doesn’t lead a life of unimaginable wealth and luxury that people envy immensely, and don’t those Immortal Venerables possibly even possess endless lifespans... As for embarking on the path of cultivation, just speaking of the Great Yan Kingdom, there are five to six hundred million people, and among such a huge number, how many can actually catch the attention of the Immortal Venerables and get their legacy to embark on that envied path of cultivating immortality!

Of course, Ding Ye is eager to gain the favor of an Immortal Venerable one day, to embark on the path of cultivation, but how could it be possible for such a small person like Ding Ye to have that chance? Without mentioning anyone else, just among the top aristocrats like Ninth Young Master Huang, there are hundreds and thousands more like them who have a greater chance of embarking on the path of cultivation than Ding Ye!

So, Brother Lin, please don’t mention embarking on the path of cultivating immortality, for ordinary small guys like us, it’s just a fantasy with almost no possibility of coming true in this lifetime!"

Just as Ding Ye finished speaking,

a few men walked over, one of whom interjected: "Younger Brother Ding, that’s not quite right! As far as I know, those lofty Immortal Venerables don’t choose disciples based on whether a disciple is as rich as my Huang Jiu or has a small bit of status like my Huang Jiu! When those Immortal Venerables choose disciples, they look at talent, to see if you have a sufficiently excellent root and disposition!

For example, in our Huang Family, although there are thousands of offspring, with gifted children in every generation, in hundreds of years, the ones who could truly catch the eye of the Immortal Venerables in the Ancestral Soul Sect and become disciples of the Immortal Venerables are only a mere two or three people!

Thus, in the future, whether you have the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation is truly not about whether you have sufficient power and status, or sufficient wealth, but whether you can catch the attention of those Immortal Venerables and have that kind of opportunity for cultivation!"

Lin Xuankong and Ding Ye turned to look, only to see that the speaker was none other than the recent sensation, Ninth Young Master Huang, accompanied by officers like Wei Hong, Liang Yucheng, and Jiaang Hongfu.

Seeing Ninth Young Master Huang say this, Ding Ye saluted and smiled, "Young Master Huang, Ding Ye doesn’t know much about the Immortal Sect, hearing Young Master Huang say this today, it gives me a little hope indeed, maybe in the future, I might actually catch the eye of some Immortal Venerable!"

Wei Hong, Liang Yucheng, Jiaang Hongfu, and other officers burst into laughter at these words. Clearly, these officers thought Ding Ye was merely joking. Unfortunately, they weren’t aware that the most famous Profound Void Immortal Venerable in the world right now actually held great regard for this Commander Ding standing in front of them.

Ninth Young Master Huang also shook his head and laughed heartily.

After the crowd had a good laugh, Ding Ye pointed to Lin Xuankong beside him and said to the Ninth Young Master Huang who came from the capital city, "Young Master Huang, this is Lin Qiang, an adopted son of Director Miao from the Qingyuan City Inspection Bureau, and also a good friend of mine!"

Ninth Young Master Huang apparently showed little interest in Lin Xuankong, after hearing Ding Ye’s introduction, he merely nodded slightly at Lin Xuankong and then turned his attention away, speaking to Ding Ye:

"Once that Liang Butong of the Blood Cloud Sect assigns the tasks to the command post commanders, I’ll take Brother Ding, Brother Wei, Brother Liang, and Brother Jiaang to have a good feast with that Liang Butong and give you all a chance to get close to a real Immortal Venerable!

However, let me say upfront, if amongst all the brothers, someone indeed catches Liang Butong’s eye and becomes his disciple in the future, then once they have succeeded in their cultivation path, they must not forget it was Huang Jiu who created this opportunity for you!"

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions abruptly changed, revealing extreme joy.

Most of them were from small towns, predominantly regulars with no substantial foundation, and hardly ever had the opportunity to meet a true immortal like Immortal Venerable Liang Butong! Now, with Ninth Young Master Huang saying he would provide such a grand opportunity to get close to an immortal, how could they not be thrilled!

If they weren’t in the military camp right now, prohibited from making loud noises, the officers present might have shouted in excitement or pulled out their pistols to fire a few rounds into the sky to express their inner excitement.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuankong directed his gaze towards the distant Chaokou Mountain,

Today, he definitely had to find Liang Butong to inquire about the collection of fine jade and exotic stones and the Five Elements Spiritual Objects. However, he didn’t need Ninth Young Master Huang’s introduction to see Liang Butong! Moreover, Lin Xuankong was already pondering when to take action to clear those Ai Race demons from the Ghost Servant Sect!
