My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 440 Come to the door
The once-in-a-century competition

A great opportunity to advance to the Divine Realm.

The combination of these two factors made Shen Changchuan's heart flutter.

However, considering what Master said,

This time will be special, and there will be considerable danger to lives.

Whether or not to take this risk seems to be debatable.

Shen Changchuan fell into deep thought for a moment.

Seemingly having discerned Shen Changchuan's thoughts,
You Longzi continued:

"There's something you might not know, Nagakawa."

"That is because of the upheaval that occurred at the Xiangshan Sect three hundred years ago. Now, in the Tiannan Region, there is no longer any opportunity for someone to break through to the Divine Travel Realm!"

"Currently, all cultivators in the Southern Region who have advanced to the Divine Ascension Realm have obtained their opportunities from the outside world. Just like your Shen family's ancestor, he also obtained his opportunity while traveling in the Central Continent and eventually attained enlightenment."

You Longzi did not continue speaking.

But Shen Changchuan already understood the meaning behind it.

There is no opportunity to advance to the Divine Travel Realm in the Southern Region.
That means,

If he misses this once-in-a-century competition, then if Shen Changchuan wants to advance to the Divine Travel Realm in the future, he will have to leave the Tiannan Region and go to the outside world to find it!

this matter,
This undoubtedly surprised Shen Changchuan.

The original plan was completely disrupted!

The outside world is wonderful.

But it is also very dangerous.

The path to immortality is fraught with difficulties and dangers. If he could, he would not want to venture into unfamiliar places!
"There are still ten years until this centennial competition."

"This is a grand event involving several major regions in the vicinity. Not only are countless geniuses gathered here, and unparalleled prodigies roaming freely, but there is even a possibility of encountering a previous generation member who has honed their skills for over a hundred years at the peak of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage!"

"Everyone will fight with all their might to compete for the chance to advance to the Divine Realm."

"That is a battlefield that only those at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage or above are qualified to enter."

“You were still in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, far from that level, so I didn’t plan to tell you about it to avoid distracting you from your cultivation.”

"I never expected your cultivation to improve so quickly, and your strength to not have declined at all. I was wrong in this respect; I underestimated you."

"If you can maintain this level of progress and advance to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage within ten years, perhaps you can give it a try."

As You Longzi gazed at Shen Changchuan, he was once again amazed by Shen Changchuan's incredible rate of improvement.
He was also earnestly trying to persuade them.

"If you can enter the top ten and obtain the three great opportunities for advancement to the Divine Realm prepared by the Immortal Sect, your chances of advancing to the Divine Realm will be at least 80%!"

"And at your age, if you successfully break through to the Divine Travel Realm, then reaching the Profound Core Realm in the future is not impossible!"

"If you aspire to achieve the Profound Core stage in the future, then the sooner you advance to the Divine Ascension stage, the better!"

finished,

You Longzi remained silent, simply waiting quietly for Shen Changchuan to process this information.

Many thoughts flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.

A hint of struggle appeared in his eyes.
But it soon disappeared completely, replaced by an unprecedented firmness.

Obviously,

He had already made up his mind.

"Master, I want to give it a shot!"

Shen Changchuan's voice was clear and resonant, and his tone was firm and authentic.

his gaze,

At this moment, he also became extremely resolute.

in fact,

He had no other choice.

Is the century-old competition dangerous?
Danger!

But no matter how dangerous it is, is it more dangerous than wandering aimlessly outside, more dangerous than trying one's luck everywhere, venturing into various forbidden areas in order to find an opportunity to advance to the Divine Travel Realm?
at least,

During the sect competition, no one above the Divine Ascension Realm will appear. It's unlikely that a super-powerful enemy or monster at the Divine Ascension Realm, or even above it, will suddenly appear on your exploration path and easily crush you with a single step!
He went out into the world of cultivation to search for himself.

Shen Changchuan wasn't sure when he would find the opportunity to advance to the Divine Realm.
Moreover, even if it is found, there is no guarantee that it will be successful.

In contrast,

Participating in the Immortal Sect's Centennial Grand Competition and striving to enter the top ten, with an 80% or higher chance of advancing to the Divine Ascension Realm, is undoubtedly the best choice!

"To advance to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul realm within ten years, and to be able to clash with geniuses and prodigies at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, and even those at the peak of the previous generation and the generation before that, is a bit of a tight timeframe."

"But I might still have a chance!"

Deep in Shen Changchuan's eyes,
A flash of light appeared.

The Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu enhances cultivation speed.
In addition, the progress bar panel for cheat codes accumulates a large number of spells.

If the Void Escape Gu can be mastered,
And the planned offensive techniques, such as spatial slashes and dimensional slashes, will succeed.

Then let's not even talk about the top ten.
They might even be able to compete for first place!

"Excellent! You truly are worthy of being my disciple, Feng You!"

You Longzi's face also showed a look of satisfaction, and his gaze towards Shen Changchuan was full of praise.

perhaps,

This disciple of mine will truly be able to surpass me one day.

Achieving a level that even I myself could not reach!

Time flies by,

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Within three days,

Shen Changchuan had always received personal instruction and guidance from You Longzi.

With the eyesight of You Longzi, who was at the peak of the Divine Realm, he could easily see through the problems Shen Changchuan was encountering in his cultivation.

He skillfully pointed out many key points.

This benefited Shen Changchuan greatly.

This not only made his foundation more solid, but also made him fully understand the cultivation ahead of the seventh level.

have to say,

With a renowned teacher providing instruction,
The progress and benefits of spiritual practice far surpass those of self-study.

But even so,

Shen Changchuan was still very clear that advancing to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage within ten years was no easy task.

The path to immortality becomes increasingly difficult as you progress.

Putting aside everything else, the sheer amount of mana required to reach the late stage of the Out-of-Body Realm, which is twice that of the mid-stage, makes it almost impossible to achieve quickly.

"It is only because I possess the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Gu and have no shortage of cultivation resources that I have the confidence to reach the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage within ten years."

"If it were an ordinary seventh-level Nascent Soul cultivator, I'm afraid it would be impossible!"

"Even I can't guarantee 100% success; time is still very tight!"

"I hope the Void Escape Gu can succeed before then!"

Shen Changchuan thought to himself, a sense of worry rising in his heart.

Not long ago, he had asked his master, You Longzi, about the Purple Star Sand and the Flying Sky-Splitting Spirit Ants.

You Longzi shook his head, saying he had never heard of it.

However, he also said that he would help him keep an eye on things and let him focus his attention on improving his cultivation level.

Whether it will be found in the end is hard to say.

With a hint of worry in my heart,

Shen Changchuan returned to his temporary cave dwelling.

Put aside the many thoughts in your mind,
Shen Changchuan began to cultivate diligently.

But only a few days later
Then an acquaintance came to visit, bringing good news.
