Chapter 653 - 658 Guidance from a Heavenly List Expert
"Lost my life?" Ling Chen was stunned and asked in surprise, "Is it that serious?"
Elder Du solemnly said, "Although Yangxin Pavilion is a part of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, the complexity of Yangxin Pavilion far surpasses that of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion. Never underestimate Yangxin Pavilion, there aren’t many people, but the internal strife is extremely severe and very few people truly spend their elderly years there. As the saying goes, the sea of knowledge is boundless, and so is martial arts. With effort, improvement is endless. Especially for older people, they wish even more to reach a higher level and enhance their cultivation."
"Why?" Ling Chen asked, puzzled, "They are already in their eighties or nineties, why do they need to be so fierce? They won’t live much longer anyway."
Hearing this, Elder Du couldn’t help but laugh, shaking his head and saying, "Saying this only shows that you don’t yet understand real masters. When you reach that level, you will naturally understand the reasons." He paused, then without waiting for Ling Chen to speak again, Elder Du changed the subject, "Young man, you have good potential, and if you were under the guidance of a famous master, your progress would be even faster."
Ling Chen touched his nose and said, "Elder Du, do you mean... I should take Huang Zheng and the others as my masters?"
"Not at all. I spoke of a famous master, not people like Huang Zheng and Liang Tian. They are eager to take you as their disciple not for your sake, but for their own. If you really take them as your masters, once they get what they want, they will kick you away or carelessly teach you a few martial arts techniques and send you off. Young man, reality is cruel, sometimes don’t think people are so good."
"Then where should I go to find a famous master?" As soon as the words left his mouth, Ling Chen’s gaze immediately locked onto Elder Du. This old man in front of him was a top ranked master on the Heavenly List, incomparably stronger than Huang Zheng and the others—if he isn’t a great master, who is?
Elder Du intentionally mentioned a famous master, could it be he was thinking... As these thoughts flashed through his mind, a fiery look suddenly surged in Ling Chen’s dark pupils. If he could become a disciple of a Heavenly List master, wouldn’t he be able to stride across the world?
Thinking this, the burning desire in Ling Chen’s eyes grew even stronger, he was almost ready to immediately kneel down in front of Elder Du and kowtow three times to acknowledge him as his master.
"Um..." Ling Chen suppressed his inner excitement and cautiously asked, "Elder Du, do you already have disciples?"
