A mortal who has been a god for eight hundred years takes Han Li as his disciple!

"By the way, now announce to the entire cultivation world in the name of the Supreme Elder of the Luoyun Sect that I have emerged from seclusion and successfully broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and am preparing to hold a grand ceremony for all cultivators that will last for a month. Within this month, regardless of their cultivation level or whether they are cultivators from the Tiannan cultivation world, they are welcome to come to the Yunmeng Mountains. There is no need for congratulations; they can simply listen to the teachings on the path of cultivation."

After Zhao Changsheng finished his reflections, he immediately instructed Cheng Tiankun to announce to the cultivation world that he was going to hold the Grand Ceremony for Ten Thousand Cultivators.

This ceremony was originally held only in the spirit world, and one was only qualified to hold it if they had reached the Mahayana stage.

However, Zhao Changsheng can now be considered the number one person in the human world, and holding a grand ceremony for all cultivators is no problem at all.

No one will object; they will only be grateful, and there will be no dissent.

Cheng Tiankun was shocked and found it unbelievable after hearing Zhao Changsheng's account of the Ten Thousand Cultivation Ceremony.

But he still said the most important thing.

"However, holding this Grand Ceremony of Ten Thousand Cultivators will likely require extensive preparations and cannot be completed in a short period of time, so it will take some time."

"No problem, a year from now. A year from now, I will hold the Grand Ceremony of Ten Thousand Cultivators in the Yunmeng Mountains. For one month, I will enjoy the path of cultivation and will also be bestowed with some elixirs, magic weapons, magic treasures, materials, cultivation techniques, and supernatural powers... As for who will receive them, that depends on luck. Moreover, whoever receives them will be considered half a disciple of mine. If they want to stay in the Yunmeng Mountains to cultivate, they can stay; if they don't want to, they can leave. No one is allowed to stop them."

Zhao Changsheng nodded in agreement.

He was well aware that this was not something that could be accomplished in a short time.

"Understood. It will definitely be held as scheduled a year from now, and I won't let you down."

After hearing Zhao Changsheng's instructions, Cheng Tiankun's shock disappeared most of the way, but he also understood Zhao Changsheng's intention.

A large part of it is probably to salvage his previous reputation. As long as the Grand Ceremony of Ten Thousand Cultivators is successfully held, coupled with Zhao Changsheng's current strength...

Then the previous reputation will almost disappear.

Simply put, as long as one has enough power, no matter what kind of behavior one engages in, there will always be great scholars who will defend one's principles.

Zhao Changsheng did this not only to salvage his previous reputation, but also to improve the strength of the cultivation world.

Whether these people can ultimately gain anything depends on their own fate, and has little to do with Zhao Changsheng.

The elixirs, magical artifacts, treasures, supernatural powers, and cultivation techniques he prepared to bestow as rewards were all things he had accumulated over the years.

It's not that they're completely unnecessary, but generally speaking, they're mostly idle.

Therefore, Zhao Changsheng planned to reward some cultivators who had good aptitude and looked pleasing to the eye.

As for whether the other party is willing to stay or not, that's up to them, but he believes no one would refuse.

Even if you refuse, he won't say anything; after all, he's just giving it away casually.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you. If there's anything else, you can discuss it together. You don't need to ask for my opinion. I'm preparing to go back to the Chaotic Star Sea."

Zhao Changsheng nodded and didn't say anything more. He simply told Cheng Tiankun to leave and carry out his instructions.

For Zhao Changsheng now, the Grand Ceremony of Ten Thousand Cultivators is not an important matter; what is important is how he can obtain the method of ascension from the Ice Soul Fairy.

But now that he has reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, Zhao Changsheng has realized just how difficult it is to advance further.

Zhao Changsheng felt that even if he obtained the Lingmiao Garden in the Fallen Demon Valley, it would be difficult for him to reach the Great Perfection of the late Nascent Soul stage.

However, he also believed in his lifespan, and with the system's help, he was sure he would be able to reach that point.

Moreover, he felt that having reached this point, he should also resolve some matters concerning the human realm.

If he doesn't step in to resolve these issues, it will likely be a difficult task to hand them over to others.

Since he can't break through anytime soon anyway, he might as well do something else.

He also wanted to see if he could restore some of the spiritual energy in the cultivation world, which would greatly reduce the pressure he would have to bear.

After reaching the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he felt that his vital essence was being lost more quickly.

What does that mean? It means that if he uses his full strength, his lifespan will decrease even faster, and he may not live past 2000 years old.

Although the possibility is not high, it is not impossible.

Fortunately, he knew about the Return to Yang Water.

Once this thing is configured, the lifespan issue can be largely resolved.

Moreover, it can extend one's lifespan by several hundred years, and if other life-extending substances are added, the lifespan will be even longer.

In the original story, Ling Yuling lived to be 3000 years old.

Therefore, Zhao Changsheng also wanted to see if he could live for several thousand more years.

However, all of this is predicated on the inability to cultivate to the late-stage Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm and ascend on one's own.

If he could reach this stage ahead of time, he would naturally ascend on his own.

After all, no matter how good the human world is, he still has to go to the spirit world.

Only by entering the Spirit Realm can he advance further, reaching the Refinement Stage, Integration Stage, Mahayana Stage, Tribulation Transcending Stage, and finally ascend to the Immortal Realm.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to devote all his time and energy to the human world.

To put it bluntly, the human world was merely a stepping stone for him, but there were indeed many good things in this human world.

In particular, Han Li's little green bottle was of great help to him.

But there are still many other good things.

The Heavenly Treasures of Kunwu Mountain, the Void Heaven Cauldron, the Spiritual Garden...

Since there are so many good things, Zhao Changsheng can't let them go no matter what, since he is now the number one person in the human world.

Obtaining these things is not difficult for him now.

In most cases, as long as he opens his mouth, someone will offer him something.

If he doesn't deliver it, he'll go pick it up himself, and if he does, the consequences will be unpredictable.

However, after Cheng Tiankun left, Zhao Changsheng did not immediately head to the Chaotic Star Sea. Instead, he went to see his disciples, especially Xin Ruyin.

Although Xin Ruyin has not yet condensed her golden core, she is already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, which is the realm of pseudo-core.

He also became the number one array master in the entire Xi Kingdom, and even a very famous array master in the Tiannan cultivation world.

"Disciple greets Master."

When Xin Ruyin saw Zhao Changsheng again, she was extremely excited and immediately bowed.

His face was also filled with joy and excitement.

"Indeed, it seems you haven't neglected your cultivation over the years, which is why you've reached such a level."

Zhao Changsheng was well aware of Xin Ruyin's aptitude. Not only was she limited by her own physique, but her spiritual root aptitude was also not very good. It was obvious that Cheng Tiankun and the others had taken good care of Xin Ruyin over the years, otherwise it would have been difficult for her to reach this level.

"I must thank Master and the elders of the sect. If it weren't for Master and the elders, I'm afraid I would have perished long ago," Xin Ruyin quickly said in response to Zhao Changsheng's praise.

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Do you want to condense your Golden Core?"

Zhao Changsheng then asked Xin Ruyin about something she had long dreamed of.

"Of course, this disciple wants to condense a golden core, but the probability of this disciple condensing a golden core is really a bit low."

After saying this, Xin Ruyin looked guilty, as if she had embarrassed Zhao Changsheng.

After all, Zhao Changsheng is now the number one person in the entire human realm, and it is truly shameful that his disciple has not yet condensed a golden core.

"Hehe! Don't worry, with your master here, I guarantee you'll be able to successfully condense your Golden Core. Here are some pills I have that will help you condense it. Also, you should diligently practice the cultivation techniques I taught you earlier; they will greatly benefit your Golden Core condensation as well."

Seeing Xin Ruyin in this state, Zhao Changsheng chuckled.

Immediately, he took out some elixirs that would help condense the golden core, but these things were nothing but waste to Zhao Changsheng.

Xin Ruyin immediately and respectfully accepted the miraculous medicine from Zhao Changsheng, her heart filled with excitement.

"Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"

He thanked them three times in a row.

One can imagine how excited Xin Ruyin was at that moment.

"You don't need to do that. Just focus on your cultivation. Next, take these pills to the sect's sacred ground for secluded cultivation and try to condense your golden core as soon as possible."

Zhao Changsheng didn't care at all and told Xin Ruyin to go into seclusion and cultivate immediately, because Xin Ruyin's lifespan was already very short, and she might not even survive his next seclusion.

Therefore, only by condensing the golden elixir as soon as possible can one have such an opportunity.

The reason why Xin Ruyin was not made to wait until after he held the Ten Thousand Ceremony was because it was completely unnecessary.

With the miraculous elixirs he bestowed, even those with five spiritual roots could successfully condense a golden core.

There's absolutely no need to listen to his explanation of the Wanxiu Grand Ceremony.

He'll definitely explain these things in a cryptic way, and although Xin Ruyin is intelligent, her level of understanding is limited, so she might not be able to comprehend them.

Therefore, it is more important to cultivate oneself in seclusion.

After Xin Ruyin left, Zhao Changsheng summoned the other disciples and bestowed upon them some pills, magic treasures, or other supernatural abilities and techniques.

After all, everyone in the Tiannan cultivation world knows that Zhao Changsheng's greatest hobby is taking on disciples, and he has hundreds of disciples.

However, none of these disciples have reached the Nascent Soul stage so far. It is unknown whether Zhao Changsheng has poor judgment or whether these disciples are not talented enough. However, there are quite a few with different spiritual roots among them.

As for Zhao Changsheng, who had taken in two disciples with the Heavenly Spiritual Root, both of them perished due to accidents.

It was for this reason that Zhao Changsheng stopped accepting disciples with Heavenly Spiritual Roots.

However, what made Zhao Changsheng feel gratified was that one of his disciples had already reached the late stage of Core Formation and was also around 200 years old, so he had a good chance of condensing his Nascent Soul.
