Chapter 58 - What Makes a Genius

[As they say, everyone's Dao is different. Naturally, the methods of cultivation vary.]

[After a period of popularizing the sleep cultivation method, everyone gradually gave up on it.]

[Only you remained, dedicating yourself to cultivation through sleeping.]

[And your realm continued to soar madly.]

[Fifty years passed in the blink of an eye.]

[Through these years of continuous sleeping, you have successfully entered the early stage of Nascent Soul realm.]

[This speed of cultivation can only be described as astonishing.]

[Even Zhuang Chengbi couldn't understand what caused this situation.]

[But you were too lazy to think about it. Your favorite thing to do was simply doing nothing, following the law of energy conservation.]

[One day, behind the Amethyst Sky Sect, a young lady in a light veil stood on a high mountain, gazing into the distance.]

[Just one step forward, and she would fall off the cliff.]

[When you saw this, with the thought that saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda, you decisively stepped forward and pulled her back.]

[You earnestly told her that no matter what happens, she must not resort to drastic measures. One can only fulfill endless possibilities by staying alive.]

[This young lady appeared to be about sixteen years old.]

[She asked you coldly, who told you she was contemplating suicide?]

[It turns out, she was just here for the scenery because it's nice.]

[Upon hearing this, a stiff smile spread across your face.]

[Did you think too much?]

[Later, through conversation, you found out that this young lady's name is Zuo Yingchun. Despite her young age, she had a mature and cold demeanor.]

[She had just joined the Amethyst Sky Sect as a disciple ten days ago.]

[She was also your junior sister.]

[You took out a bottle of Qi-replenishing pill, hoping she would address you as a senior brother.]

[But Zuo Yingchun only gave a cold laugh and didn't utter the words "senior brother".]

[She told you she came here just to see what the "sleeping immortal" her master spoke of actually looked like.]

[Now that she's seen it, there's no surprise.]

[You felt a bit embarrassed.]

[A sleeping immortal?]

[Should it be said....Zhuang Chengbi is pretty trash at giving nicknames. How did he come up with such a tacky title?]

[Afterwards, your life continued to be uneventful.]

[However, the title of genius of Amethyst Sky Sect had quietly changed hands.]

[One week to reach Qi cultivation.]

[Three months to reach Foundation Establishment.]

[Ten years to reach Golden Core.]

[Twenty years to reach Nascent Soul.]

[Zuo Yingchun's speed of breakthroughs even broke historical records on the Central Continent.]

[Even you couldn't help but come out from behind the mountain again.]

[You sized up your junior sister, Zuo Yingchun, once again.]

[So many years have passed.]

[Zuo Yingchun has completely grown up.]

[With bright eyes and white teeth, as beautiful as a peach blossom. Yet she exudes an aura that keeps people at a distance, as if she were unapproachable.]

[At this moment, you heard Zhuang Chengbi's famous words again.]

["I see, my disciple, you have the potential of Ascension Realm!"]

[Tsk tsk tsk, these words sound quite familiar, don't they?]

[However, you are well aware.]

[At the rate she's going, as long as Zuo Yingchun doesn't die, Ascension Realm is just a matter of time!]

Ye Yu squinted slightly, watching the stunning Zuo Yingchun in the dream.

It turns out that there are such geniuses in this world.

Becoming Nascent Soul realm at the age of twenty.

Such terrifying speed is simply breathtaking.

[At 108 years old, you successfully entered the Divine Transformation realm.]

[At this time, Zuo Yingchun has also reached the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, just one step away from the Divine Transformation realm.]

[Facing such astonishing cultivation speeds from both of you, Zhuang Chengbi's smile diminished a lot.]

[He even appeared somewhat worried.]

[So, you approached Zhuang Chengbi for a heart-to-heart talk over drinks.]

[Finally, you understood everything.]

[It turns out Zhuang Chengbi wasn't unhappy; he just felt inadequate.]

[You see, in the cultivation world, Amethyst Sky Sect isn't even considered a third-rate sect. But you and Zuo Yingchun are too dazzling.]

[With such cultivation speed and remarkable talent, even in the Sacred Lands, you could compete for the positions of Saintess and Saint.]

[Zhuang Chengbi's cultivation level isn't high, after eight hundred years of cultivation, he barely made it to the Divine Transformation realm.]

[And with his limited innate talent, this is his limit in this lifetime; there's no possibility of further breakthroughs.]

[Seeing that both of you are about to surpass him soon, he truly worried that his modest abode could not accommodate such towering figures like you two.]

[However, Zhuang Chengbi expressed that he was too selfish and shouldn't hinder your future. If there's a better place for you, you should go there without hesitation.]

[He just hopes you'll occasionally come back to visit him.]

[After all, after so many years of living together, you're not just colleagues; you're like family.]

[You smiled wryly.]

[Over nearly a century of being together, how could you not know Zhuang Chengbi's character?]

[This sect master, who appears mature and decisive, actually has the heart of a child. He values emotions the most and can't bear to see separations.]

[For these years, every decade you would go down the mountain to visit your parents in the fishing village.]

[Whenever you returned, you would see Zhuang Chengbi gazing at the gate of Amethyst Sky Sect.]

[When he saw your figure, he would always say it's just a coincidence that he's here enjoying the breeze.]

[And it's not just you; whenever anyone went out, he would repeatedly remind them to stay safe. His nagging rivals that of an old woman in her twilight years.]

[It's because of this that you feel the Amethyst Sky Sect isn't like a cultivation sect. Instead, it feels more like a family.]

[And Zhuang Chengbi is like the patriarch.]

[He has never demanded anything from you. Instead, he always does his utmost to prepare everything you need in advance.]

[You naturally understand this sentiment well.]

[So, you pat Zhuang Chengbi on the back.]

[You quietly tell him that you're even too lazy to bother with cultivation, let alone changing sects.]

[After saying this, you expected Zhuang Chengbi to be pleased.]

[Instead, all you heard was his snoring.]

[Turns out, this master had drunk too much.]

[After escorting him back to his room, you ran into Zuo Yingchun.]

[It was the first time she called you "Senior Brother" and threw you a copied manual named "Profound Heart Sword".]

[You asked her what this meant.]

[Zuo Yingchun simply replied indifferently that she thought you were decent, so she gave you a gift.]

[You were left puzzled.]

[Three years later, you decided you couldn't continue lying around at Amethyst Sky Sect anymore.]

[You prepared to venture out and travel.]

[Everyone in the sect was shocked by this decision.]

[In their minds, you were just a koala who slept all the time.]

[Zhuang Chengbi bluntly predicted that within half a month, you would find sleeping outside uncomfortable and return to the sect.]

[You were quite displeased with this.]

[You vowed to spend a hundred years traveling across the entire Central Continent.]

[However, this vow was not fulfilled.]

[In the eighth year, you hurriedly returned to the sect.]

[The reason was that your master, Zhuang Chengbi, had been seriously injured by someone.]
