However, what you didn't expect was that just as you were about to return, the unexpected still happened.

A dragon, appearing out of nowhere, smashed your flying boat to pieces.

Even though the opponent has suffered significant injuries, your group of Golden Core cultivators are still no match for this dragon.

You were forced to scatter and flee with your fellow disciples.

[You didn't expect that among all the cultivators, that dragon had its sights firmly set on you.]

No matter how you try to escape, this dragon will relentlessly pursue you, showing no sign of giving up until the very end.

[You sense the overwhelming aura around you, and you choose:]

1. Continue running at all costs. (There is a chance you will be caught by the dragon.)

2. Turn around and engage in combat. (You have a certain probability of dying at the hands of the dragon.)

3. Try to delay the battle and wait for reinforcements. (There is a chance you will die at the hands of the dragon.)

[4. Personal intervention, remaining attempts: three.]

Choose 3!

[Your flying boat was heavily fortified with defensive formations, yet the dragon still easily smashed it to pieces.]

You are well aware of the dragon's power and dare not confront it head-on.

[The only option is to continuously use all means to slow them down while fleeing, and wait for rescue from others.]

[However, this dragon possesses an extremely powerful aura.]

The other cultivators in the vicinity, having sensed the presence of the dragon from afar, had already fled, not daring to approach. The rescue you awaited has yet to arrive.

The situation you face is becoming increasingly dangerous.

You can only try to save yourself!

【Your choice:】

1. Continue running at all costs. (There is a chance you will be caught by the dragon.)

2. Turn around and engage in combat. (You have a certain probability of dying at the hands of the dragon.)

[3. Personal intervention, remaining attempts: three.]

Choose 2!

[You sense the dragon's aura drawing ever closer, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, you choose to turn and fight.]

The moment you engaged in combat, you immediately felt unparalleled pressure.

You would never have imagined that this dragon, even severely wounded, would remain incredibly ferocious.

Even with your best efforts, you almost got killed by the enemy.

However, during your fierce battle, this dragon's condition is rapidly declining, and you can clearly sense this.

[If you can hold out long enough, you'll eventually wear this dragon down.]

But the problem is, you might not be able to keep dragging it out.

In your desperation, you disregarded everything else and focused solely on striking with your sword, trying every possible way to suppress the dragon's movements.

Finally, at a certain moment, your sword pierced the dragon's scales!

You felt a fierce force erupt forth. You were almost instantly blasted away, and by the time you regained your senses...

The dragon has already perished on the spot!

The commotion had already attracted a large number of cultivators, but they dared not approach. Only after the dragon had ceased its breathing did they gradually gather around.

Your body has undergone a great deal of exertion and is finding it difficult to cope at this moment.

After seeing your condition, the others seemed to get excited; they wanted to steal your spoils.

Even after you revealed your identity, these people showed no sign of backing down.

They only believe in one thing: the law doesn't punish everyone!

Just as you were planning to take only the most valuable parts of the dragon to save your own life, your fellow disciples who had just scattered and fled finally arrived at the scene.

[Under the Qingyun Sect's influence, the surrounding rogue cultivators and cultivators from small sects were immediately intimidated.]

Under their influence, everything finally returned to calm.

"Junior brother, you've struck gold! The value of a single dragon far exceeds all the missions we've accomplished on this trip!" The senior brother beside him exclaimed excitedly.

"All you care about is the dragon, don't you even check if your junior brother is injured?"

When Han Tao saw the crowd gathering around, he immediately waved his hand.

"Perhaps I just used up a little too much energy. I don't have any serious injuries, so it's okay."

"We haven't heard a sound of a dragon along the way, so where did this guy come from?"

Moreover, these injuries seem to be man-made. Who did this guy fight before?

Before collecting the spoils, one of the senior disciples carefully examined the dragon's condition.

This guy is clearly already at the Golden Core stage and could break through to the Nascent Soul stage at any time.

Such a being is already considered extremely powerful among the monsters in the surrounding area.

With the added advantage of the dragon's innate bloodline, this guy's combat power is even more terrifying.

The fact that the enemy easily destroyed their airship is a testament to this.

"Someone fought him before, so wouldn't you call this 'stealing' from him, Junior Brother?"

"Whoever kills the prey owns it. Since the other party injured the dragon, it still managed to escape."

And since they haven't caught up after so long, they probably haven't fought.

Even among those at the Golden Core stage, probably not many people could kill such a dragon.

Although it was my junior brother who took down this dragon all by himself.

But since they bought some materials at a friendly price, there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Wait a minute, what's this?"

[The senior brother found a box inside the dragon's body. It was sealed with multiple layers of seals, and during their deciphering, they discovered it appeared to be a sign of some kind of treasure map.]

After a brief discussion, you decided to send two people to return the dragon, while the rest of you will investigate according to the instructions on this box.

Although you are the youngest junior disciple, you are brave and resourceful, and since you were the one who killed the dragon, you are naturally a good candidate for the treasure hunt.

After a brief assignment of tasks, you parted ways again.

Following the directions on the box, you proceeded towards the sea.

The more you look at the scenery around you, the more surprised you become.

This place looks familiar.

[Only when you finally landed did you realize that the area the box had pointed to was near the capital.]

And all guidance ends here.

The remaining exact locations will need to be found by you yourselves.

You weren't in a hurry, but instead went to the capital yourself.

When you appeared before Chai Yashi, she seemed somewhat surprised.

The fact that you can appear in the mortal world at this time suggests that your strength may be even greater than they imagine.

The ten-year selection process has not yet begun, and news from the immortal sects has not yet reached here.

The Chai family is unaware of your level of attainment.

[You only showed a couple of skills, yet Chai Yashi is convinced that the Chai family won't need to compete with other families in the next selection of immortal sects!]

"In just over six years, you went from being a fisherman to a revered immortal."

That's wonderful.

Chai Yashi looked at Han Tao, without mentioning at all that his surname was Chai.

What Chai Yashi valued in Han Tao was his talent, but at that time, she never expected that Han Tao would be so extraordinary.

In just three years, the other party was already able to fly on a sword.

“I need the Chai family to do something for me. After it’s done, I’ll find a way to make you a cultivator as well.”

Han Tao looked at Chai Yashi in front of him and said in a low voice.

"I'm too old for that now, is it okay?"

To say that one has absolutely no desire to become a cultivator is utter nonsense.

For women, spiritual cultivation not only means becoming powerful, but also means maintaining their youthful appearance!

Chai Yashi had never dared to imagine what her spiritual practice would be like.

Because she had long passed the optimal time.

According to information received by the Chai family and other families, if they do not embark on the path of cultivation early, it will only become more and more difficult in the future.

"Age only limits mediocre people; if it were you, you wouldn't need to consider that limitation."

Han Tao has already met his parents, and under the care of the Chai family, his health has indeed improved a lot compared to before.

All of this, of course, is inseparable from Chai Yashi's advice.

Previously, he did not know how to judge a person's character.

Upon his return, he discovered that this young lady was actually a genius with exceptional talent.

Chai Ya-shi did indeed attempt to participate in her family's spiritual practice.

After a series of tests, it was proven that she was not suited for cultivation at all.

Han Tao's words truly moved Chai Yashi.

Chai Yashi was more inclined to believe Han Tao's words than the judgment of her clansmen.

What do you need the Chai family to do for you?
