Wayless Sect, Ancestral Master Hall.
At this moment, Chu Yuan was sitting on the Sect Master's throne, lost in thought.
He was contemplating his path forward.
Now, he had plummeted to the Qi Refining Realm Early Stage Peak.
His combat power was pitifully weak.
Through hard cultivation, he might reach the Foundation Establishment Realm within a year.
But that speed was too slow.
To grow stronger quickly, he could only rely on taking in disciples and educating the hopeless ones.
However, this time, Chu Yuan still planned to play it safe.
First, take on one disciple.
Cultivate himself while teaching the hopeless disciple.
It wasn't that he didn't want to take on more disciples.
But he was scared.
If he took two or three more,
and if indeed all of them turned out successful after a year, that would mean losing two or three major realms in cultivation levels.
Chu Yuan was now at the Qi Refinement Stage.
