There are surprises everywhere in life, and you never know when the surprise will come.

Shortly after Zhao Xun made the fried noodles, Zhao Xun got the news.

Qinglian Taoist Master Wu Quanyi broke through the realm and reached the first level of Dzogchen.

For a moment, Zhao Xun's emotions were extremely complicated, including excitement, excitement and shock.

You must know that the cultivation level of your mentor, Taoist Qinglian, has remained at the second-grade level for a long time.

Stability is stability, but it is indeed difficult to take another step forward.

This shows what?

This shows that my mentor, Taoist Qinglian, has encountered a bottleneck.

Practitioners all know that there will be a bottleneck period in the realm of cultivation.

During the bottleneck period, many people find it difficult to break through this barrier.

So some choose to lie down, and some give up on themselves.

There are really only a few people who can choose to face difficulties and maintain high intensity.

Of course, in fact, my mentor Qinglian Taoist Master Wu Quanyi did not maintain the so-called high intensity.

In Zhao Xun's view, his mentor actually maintained a life like a leisurely cloud and a wild crane.

Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself, don't fight or rob at all.

It seems that there are indeed some problems with this so-called high-intensity lifestyle.

But sometimes the breakthrough in realm really depends on luck, rather than the so-called hard work.

If hard work really worked, there wouldn't be so many mediocre people.

It's a pity that so many people are unable to reach the ideal level of cultivation throughout their lives. Many people are mediocre and only reach the eighth or ninth level throughout their lives.

This kind of person is truly without talent.

So no matter how much effort you put in, there is no point.

But my mentor, Taoist Master Qinglian, is definitely the type with extraordinary talents.

When he and Yuan Tiangang were practicing Taoism in Qingcheng Mountain, the growth rate of their realms was basically the same.

The main reason why Yuan Tiangang's cultivation level advanced rapidly was that he chose to become an official in the court after arriving in Chang'an.

After entering the Qintian Prison as a supervisor, Yuan Tiangang received the blessing of the imperial court.

In addition, there were countless cultivation classics from various sects in the Zhou Dynasty. After being absorbed by him, his cultivation level improved rapidly once he gained enlightenment.

It was during those few years that Yuan Tiangang's cultivation level improved rapidly, so much so that he left Qinglian Taoist Priest Wu Quanyi far behind.

But as Zhao Xun said, the temperament of his mentor, Taoist Master Qinglian, was of the type that neither competes nor robs.

If you are strong, you are strong. I will not fight or rob you.

After this, Yuan Tiangang's strength improved so fast that it was beyond everyone's imagination.

Over time, basically no one can compete with this Taoist leader.

In a short period of time, Yuan Tiangang became an invincible strongman who defeated many other Taoist practitioners.

Taoist Priest Qinglian is the person closest to him, but this personality gap makes the distance between the two of them farther and farther.

After Yuan Tiangang broke through that layer of window paper and reached the realm of super master, the gap between Taoist Qinglian and him became even wider.

Of course, many things in this world sometimes cannot be measured simply at the commodity level.

For example, Yuan Tiangang's disciple Li Chunfeng is also in the second-grade realm, right? But no one will compare his second-grade with that of Taoist Qinglian.

Because everyone who knows the industry knows that Li Chunfeng's second grade has just crossed the threshold of the second grade, and his footing is still unstable.

The second level of Qinglian Taoist Master Wu Quanyi is the second level of Dzogchen, and may reach a new peak at any time.

The two are not at the same level at all.

And Taoist Qinglian just doesn't fight or grab.

As long as he wants to fight for it, he may break through himself at any time and reach an extremely powerful point.

Zhao Xun is very convinced of this.

Doesn’t this situation just confirm this point?

As long as Taoist Qinglian spends a little energy on cultivation, he can directly break through to the first-level Dzogchen realm.

Zhao Xun was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear after hearing the news.

To know that his mentor's level has improved, the happiest person would be Zhao Xun.

Because he can enjoy great honor next.

After all, as Taoist Qinglian's closed disciple and his only disciple, Zhao Xun and Taoist Qinglian are almost bound to each other in the eyes of the outside world.

The master rose to the first-level Dzogchen realm, and Zhao Xun's face naturally glowed.

As a disciple, the most important thing Zhao Xun needs to do now is to go and congratulate his mentor, Taoist Master Qinglian.

If Zhao Xun didn't go at this time, it would really be unjustifiable.

"I didn't expect it. I really didn't expect it. I didn't expect my mentor's cultivation level to improve so suddenly. It seems that the strength of our academy is now even more powerful, and we have added a powerful general."

There is actually nothing wrong with what Zhao Xun said.

After all, before this, except for the mountain chief who was a super-grade grandmaster, the entire Haoran Academy only had half of a first-grade master.

Why do you say half?

Because Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal, is at most a guest of Haoran Academy.

What is a guest?

The so-called Keqing himself is not a disciple of the sect, but he only lives here temporarily due to various factors.

Generally speaking, Keqing will not stay in a fixed area for a long time, but Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy, is an exception.

Because there was only one reason why he chose to stay in Haoran Academy and Zhongnan Mountain, and that was Liu Yingying.

Liu Yingying was the childhood sweetheart of Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy.

The two were born together in Shu and grew up together in Shu.

It can be said that Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy, spent his childhood with Liu Yingying.

It was the purest, happiest and most fulfilling day.

When Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy, accidentally mentioned it to Zhao Xun on weekdays, Zhao Xun could also feel the feeling of happiness.

That is true happiness, it is not fake and cannot be faked.

Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan's life-long bond is to his second senior sister Liu Yingying, and he cannot let go.

So he followed the footsteps of his second senior sister Liu Yingying from Shuzhong to Zhongnan Mountain.

So after coming to Zhongnan Mountain, Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan chose to live temporarily in Zhongnan Mountain.

It's called temporary residence, but it actually lasts for more than ten years.

After more than ten years of perseverance, God was finally moved.

Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy, got what he wanted, and he could stay together with Liu Yingying forever.

Of course, Zhao Xun still put in a lot of effort, but these are things for later.

From the moment the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan married his second senior sister Liu Yingying, Zhao Xun knew that the Academy had a real first-grade Sword Immortal. Because from that time on, Yao Yan had been completely marked by the academy.

From then on, everyone knew that Yao Jianxian was from the academy.

Now, another first-grade swordsman has been added to the academy camp.

This person is Qinglian Taoist Priest Wu Quanyi.

The reason why Zhao Xun was willing to add one directly was because he knew that as long as he was in the academy, Taoist Qinglian would definitely be in the academy camp.

Therefore, there are now two first-grade practitioners in the academy camp, and their strength cannot be underestimated.

As for second-grade practitioners, there are too many.

Senior sister, second senior sister, third senior brother

Even Zhao Xun reached the third level without saying a word.

Although the third-level realm is not too high in the academy, it can indeed be regarded as a major breakthrough for Zhao Xun personally.

Breakthroughs are always a good thing.

A breakthrough means there is hope.

What Zhao Xun fears most is that his cultivation level has been stagnant.

Then his mood will definitely collapse.

It’s not that Zhao Xun can’t accept his low level, it’s that he can’t accept that he can’t get equivalent rewards after putting in hard work.

If he didn't put in the effort, it's understandable that he didn't improve his cultivation level.

But even though he had made great efforts, but his cultivation level still could not be improved, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Of course, so far, Zhao Xun is still very satisfied with his cultivation level.
