Chapter 736 - 414: Accident_2
"I have merely an average talent. I am four hundred and thirty-five years old this year, and after ascending to the Nascent Soul Stage, I will have over five hundred years of life span left," Sword Elder said, his face revealing a wry smile.
Sword Elder thought about how it took him much longer to reach the Nascent Soul Stage compared to his predecessors at the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
But that did not mean his talent was inferior; rather, it was because he was in the Beishu Continent, where the resources could not compare with those at the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
"Nascent Soul, perhaps with your talent, you could ascend to Nascent Soul at the age of two hundred. Then, you would have eight hundred years in the Nascent Soul Early Stage to cultivate, which would allow you to ascend to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage before your life span ran out. But this would also exhaust all your potential and leave you unable to advance any further. The resources of Beishu Continent would not allow you to progress!" he continued.
"Master, do you mean I should also leave Beishu Continent after I ascend to the Nascent Soul Stage?" Li Yuanba guessed the meaning of Sword Elder’s words.
"The decision should be yours to make. If a Mid-stage Cultivator had not come close today, I would not have spoken with you about this. Perhaps by achieving Nascent Soul on Beishu Continent, you could live safely and comfortably. However, leaving Beishu Continent, you may encounter many dangers," Sword Elder said with a wave of his hand.
Originally, Sword Elder had planned to discuss these matters with Li Yuanba when he himself was about to leave Beishu Continent. But the arrival of a formidable enemy made him feel the urgency of time, and he needed to convey some important things to Li Yuanba ahead of time.
Li Yuanba showed a pensive expression. If he were to leave Beishu Continent, it wouldn’t just be him departing; he would be leaving together with his main body, Li Shiming.
To tell the truth, he and Li Shiming had genuinely taken root in Beishu Continent. Although they belonged to different sects of righteousness and deviltry, they both held extremely high statuses.
There are few on Beishu Continent who could bully them now, and as their strength increased, once they ascended to the Nascent Soul Stage, with their methods, it would be no problem for them to roam the continent unchecked.
However, Sword Elder had made it clear that no matter how talented they were, the resources of Beishu Continent would limit them to, at most, the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
Knowing that the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion had ancestors who had ascended, Li Shiming had long set his sights on ascension. He wanted to witness the higher realms; he did not want to fade away like the grass and trees.
