Mortal Cultivation: I have a proficiency panel

Chapter 38: The Red Dust Tribulation

Han Li was very surprised to see Wang Jue. There were no customers in Qingzhu Pavilion at this time, which showed that the small shop opened by Han Li did not have much business.

"Senior Brother Wang came to visit suddenly, what is there for you to talk to me about?" Han Li said. At this time, he didn't know the relationship between Wang Jue and Miaoyin Sect, and naturally he didn't know that Wang Jue had already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Wang Jue smiled when he heard this and said, "Why, Senior Brother, I can't come to see you if I'm fine? I haven't congratulated you on your breakthrough to the Core Forming Stage yet. We haven't seen each other for decades, so I came to see you."

After hearing what Wang Jue said, Han Li relaxed a lot. After all, Wang Jue always came to him with a purpose. In order to help Wang Jue cultivate the ten thousand year old golden thunder bamboo, he didn't even have enough materials to refine his own natal magic weapon. Now he opened such a small shop. In addition to consolidating his cultivation, his purpose was to cultivate the golden thunder bamboo he needed and refine his own natal magic weapon as soon as possible.

Han Li poured Wang Jue a cup of tea, then sat opposite Wang Jue somewhat stiffly. Even though Han Li had broken through to the Jindan stage, he still couldn't see through Wang Jue's cultivation level. He even felt that Wang Jue's aura was stronger than before, which made him vaguely guess something.

Han Li did not dare to ask Wang Jue directly about his cultivation level, because he knew that even if he asked, Wang Jue would not tell the truth, so he thought for a while and suddenly said: "Brother Wang, I heard from other Taoist friends that Miaoyin Sect has a Yuanying stage supreme elder, and it seems that his name is the same as yours, is this a coincidence?"

Wang Jue was not surprised to hear this. After all, many forces and independent cultivators in Chaos Star Sea knew about this matter, and Miaoyin Sect’s publicity was still very good. So Wang Jue did not beat around the bush and replied directly: "Junior Brother Han, there is no need to test it. The Grand Elder of Miaoyin Sect you are talking about is actually me."

When Han Li heard Wang Jue's direct admission, his heart was suddenly in turmoil. He did not expect that Wang Jue had broken through to the Nascent Soul stage so early. You know, the time between the two of them embarking on the immortal path was actually not far apart, and Han Li also had the help of the little green bottle. Even so, Han Li had only broken through to the Core Formation stage. He did not expect that Wang Jue had left him far behind.

Han Li fell silent. He had long guessed that Wang Jue should also have had an adventure, but he didn't know what it was. But Wang Jue knew that Wang Jue had the little green bottle, and Wang Jue had no intention of snatching Han Li's little green bottle from beginning to end. However, Han Li was still secretly alert in his heart. Now he knew why. In his opinion, Wang Jue's adventure must be much greater than his, so he looked down on the little green bottle.

"Junior brother, congratulations to senior brother for breaking through the Nascent Soul stage. You will have a good chance of becoming an immortal in the future." Han Li complimented with a hint of bitterness.

Wang Jue's mouth curled up when he heard this. He and Han Li had known each other for such a long time, and he understood Han Li's character very clearly. There was actually no difference between Han Li and other cultivators. It was also very realistic. It was just that Han Li was luckier and had the self-knowledge to endure.

"Okay, Junior Brother Han, I came to you just to get some fresh air. Don't let the difference in our cultivation levels create a barrier between us. Our relationship as brothers will not change. How about playing a game of chess with me?" Wang Jue said with a smile.

Han Li did not refuse when he heard this. In addition to refining his life-saving magic weapon, the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword, he opened this Green Bamboo Pavilion with the idea of ​​becoming a mortal and improving his state of mind. Whether it was improving his cultivation or practicing the "Dayan Jue", both required a certain state of mind.

The two men sat on the seats by the window, set up the chessboard and started playing. The breeze outside the window brought a cool feeling, which made people feel very comfortable. At this time, Wang Jue and Han Li were no different from ordinary mortals, and they also enjoyed this feeling.

After Han Li placed a move, he smiled at Wang Jue who was frowning in thought and said, "This scene reminds me of the days when we were in Shenshou Valley. At that time, my brother and I would play chess to relieve boredom. If Master Mo hadn't urged us to practice, I would have been addicted to it. I wonder if Zhang Tie and Li Feiyu are still alive."

Wang Jue raised his eyes to look at Han Li, who was full of reminiscence. He also sighed and said, "It was many years ago, and you still remember it. I have forgotten it long ago. Time flies like an arrow, day and night. A hundred years of life is like a mayfly. We have to look forward. If we can't become immortals and live forever, no matter if we are kings, generals, or ordinary people, in the end we will be nothing but passing clouds." Wang Jue put down the chess piece and felt that his mood seemed to be calmer. Although he said it frankly, he had not completely let go of the things in the world in his heart. After all, they were still mortals. Although they had made progress in cultivation, their state of mind did not improve immediately. It was not easy for mortals to let go of their seven emotions and six desires. Even immortals would find it difficult to do so.

"The world is complicated, but everything has its meaning. Birth, old age, sickness and death, the coming together of cause and effect..." Han Li suddenly opened his mouth and whispered.

Wang Jue laughed when he heard this and said, "Isn't this the general outline of the fourth level of the Great Evolution Jue? Junior Brother Han, are you comprehending the calamity of the mortal world?"

"I guess so. I still need about twenty years to cultivate the Ten Thousand Year Golden Thunder Bamboo. This is a good time for me to comprehend the calamity of the mortal world. Senior Brother Wang has also practiced the "Dayan Jue", but he has comprehended the calamity of the mortal world. I would like to get some guidance, but I am still confused." Han Li said with some distress.

Wang Jue felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, he practiced the Dayan Jue by relying on the proficiency panel, so he had no chance to comprehend the Red Dust Tribulation at all, and this thing sounded mysterious, it all depended on personal feelings.

"You have to slowly figure out the tribulations of this mortal world on your own. Everyone's feelings are different, so naturally the conclusions they come to are also different. So I can't help you with this. You can only figure it out on your own." Wang Jue said perfunctorily.

After Han Li heard what Wang Jue said, he didn't say anything else. The two began to play chess silently, obviously more seriously than before.

"You two are playing chess!"

Suddenly an old voice sounded outside the window, and then a short old man with white hair climbed up from under the window, staring at the chessboard.

Wang Jue and Han Li were both stunned when they saw this. They were playing chess seriously and did not check the surroundings at any time. This was the Tianxing City Market, it was very safe and there was no need to be so vigilant.

Wang Jue looked at the old man and smiled, "Old man also likes to play chess?"

The old man smiled and said, "My last name is He. I love playing chess the most. I am very happy to see you two playing chess. I will just watch from the sidelines and will not disturb you."

Both Wang Jue and Han Li could tell at a glance that the old man in front of them was only at the late Foundation Establishment stage, and his life span was not long. It was almost impossible for him to break through to the Core Formation stage in this lifetime.

Since the old man wanted to watch the game, Wang Jue and Han Li did not refuse. After all, it was just entertainment, and it wouldn't hurt to have some fun.
