Cultivation: I Signed in with the Talent of an Immortal at the Start

Chapter 752: Too Little Experience

Han Xuanji was contemplating the dao-rhythm on the Destruction Colossus, completely obsessed with it.

Pure destruction is undesirable, at least in Han Xuanji’s mind. If destruction loses its balance, it becomes an uncontrollable wildfire, burning everything to ashes while consuming itself in the process.

He had witnessed Centurion Zhou Lie’s Law of Destruction; although powerful, it was missing something.

Therefore, he was not taking a risky shortcut but rather thinking about how to perfectly integrate the Law of Destruction into his own Dao.

Complementing the other nine Laws to form a complete, closed loop.

Creation gives birth to all things, the Five Elements construct all things, Yin and Yang balance all things, Life and Death define all things, Reincarnation continues all things, and destruction—destruction is both the end and a new beginning.

If the old does not go, the new cannot come.

Without destruction, there is no true creation.

This is the true meaning of the Dao of Destruction in Han Xuanji’s mind.

In fact, there are not a few Cultivators on the Eternal Continent who pursue perfection like Han Xuanji.

If comprehending the Great Dao were merely a matter of time, then with their near-eternal lives, wouldn’t a large batch of top-tier experts have been produced long ago?

But the reality is that countless Cultivators have spent hundreds of millions of years and still cannot comprehend the mysteries within.

This is the dilemma faced by all Cultivators on the Eternal Continent.

Even some Prodigies who are highly anticipated, who have Legacies, backgrounds, and resources to pave their way, are stuck in front of a certain threshold for their entire lives, unable to make any progress.

Dao comprehension has never been a problem that time alone can solve.

However, it was clear that for Han Xuanji, this was not a problem.

“With my Comprehension Ability, condensing the tenth Law in thirty years should not be a problem.”

Han Xuanji muttered to himself, calculating his upcoming cultivation plan.

“If progress goes smoothly, I can also cultivate the Undying Creation Body along the way.”

The Undying Creation Body was a Saint-level Body Refining technique he had obtained from Sign In at the Creation Platform. Using the power of creation for Body Tempering, it not only provided extremely strong defense but also incredibly tenacious vitality; as long as he wasn’t instantly annihilated, he could keep fighting.

If Centurion Zhou Lie had actually succeeded in cultivating this technique earlier, it would have been impossible for him to win so easily.

But for now, the most important thing was the Law of Destruction.

Han Xuanji closed his eyes and sank back into contemplation.

Black light once again enveloped his body, flowing like mist. With every breath, wisps of light drifted, appearing extremely eerie.

…

On the other side.

Qianhun City, Qianmeng Pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, the sound of zithers was melodious, and the fragrance of tea curled in the air.

The news that the Law Conference would start early had spread throughout the entire city, and people were discussing it everywhere in teahouses and taverns.

As one of the premier places of entertainment in Qianhun City, Qianmeng Pavilion was naturally no exception.

Wang Ping held a wine glass, leaning against the railing by the window, his gaze sweeping over the pedestrians coming and going below. His face held a mix of anticipation and regret.

“It’s a pity I am not a Cultivator of the Way of Laws, otherwise I could go up there and show off a few tricks.”

He sighed and turned to look at the two people beside him:

“But it doesn’t matter. When the time comes, I’ll go and cheer for Brother Han. You two must perform well and don’t lose face for our Qianhun City.”

Hun Jiuge stood beside him and grinned upon hearing this:

“Brother Wang, you make it sound so easy. In a scene like the Law Conference, it would be good enough for people like us to just go up and go through the motions. How could we dare to think about ‘performing’?”

“What kind of talk is that.”

Wang Ping put down his wine glass and said seriously:

“Just because you aren’t up to it doesn’t mean Brother Li isn’t!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Tiantong smiled bitterly:

“Brother Wang, please don’t flatter me. I know my own weight.”

“At the Law Conference, it would be good enough not to embarrass myself.”

As an S-rank Talent of the Hun Family, Li Tiantong naturally had the qualifications to participate. Although Hun Jiuge was slightly lacking, he was an A-rank Talent and was also qualified to participate.

Of course, Hun Jiuge felt there was no hope, according to his own words.

Making it into the top 100 would be a success.

However, Hun Jiuge couldn’t stand hearing Li Tiantong say such things and immediately retorted:

“Tiantong, you are being too modest. Although you came to the Hun Family late, your cultivation progress is obvious to all. Among the younger generation of Qianhun City, you are definitely top-tier.”

He had initially only gotten close to Li Tiantong because of his relationship with Han Xuanji, but after actually interacting with him, he discovered that the other party not only had outstanding talent but was also a good person, very suitable to be friends with.

“That’s only in Qianhun City.”

Li Tiantong’s tone was calm, but carried a hint of Battle Intent:

“This time at the Law Conference, the people coming aren’t just from Qianhun City.”

“Prodigies from Jiuxuan City and even other major states will come.”

“Those people are not ordinary.”

Although his words were modest, one could also hear the restlessness in Li Tiantong’s heart.

Wang Ping waved his hand, not caring at all:

“Whatever Prodigies they are, the first place will definitely be Brother Han’s.”

“Think about it, Centurion Zhou Lie was easily taken down by Brother Han. How much stronger can the people from Jiuxuan City be than Centurion Zhou Lie?”

Before he had finished speaking, a cold laugh came from the next table.

“Heh, easily taken down? That’s because you haven’t seen the Prodigies from Jiuxuan City, right?”

Wang Ping frowned and turned to look.

A young man in exotic clothing was sitting at the next table; judging by his attire, he did not look like a local of Qianhun City.

He was waving a folding fan in his hand, a look of disdain hanging on the corners of his mouth, with two people who looked like attendants standing behind him.

“What does Your Excellency mean by that?”

Wang Ping’s tone was not polite.

You can look down on him, but if you look down on Han Xuanji, he will get angry.

The youth in exotic clothing closed his folding fan and said slowly:

“What I mean is, Han Xuanji just reigns supreme in Qianhun City.”

“Once he goes out, who knows him?”

“This Law Conference is not a game. Any one of those Prodigies from Jiuxuan City, if picked out at random, is not someone that people from Qianhun City can compare to.”

Obviously, the youth in exotic clothing also knew of Han Xuanji’s prestige in this city, but still maintained his contempt.

As soon as these words were spoken, the pavilion suddenly became a bit quieter.

The surrounding diners cast their glances over; some frowned, some were thoughtful, and many nodded secretly.

A strong dragon does not suppress the local serpent—that refers to an ordinary strong dragon.

But what if it’s not a dragon that arrives, but a True Dragon?

“What you said is too absolute.”

Hun Jiuge couldn’t help but speak up:

“Brother Han’s strength is obvious to all. Even Centurion Zhou Lie’s strength can be considered top-tier among Eternal Dao Lords, right?”

The youth in exotic clothing sneered and shook his head:

“You guys, you just have too little experience.”

He picked up his wine cup, took a sip, and said unhurriedly:

“Back then, Centurion Zhou Lie was also your Qianhun City’s ‘Number One Prodigy’. Feeling his talent was unparalleled, he ran to Jiuxuan City to challenge various talents.”

“And the result? As soon as he went, he took a huge fall and was beaten by someone until he had no power to fight back.”

“You might not know about this, but I saw it with my own eyes. I’m not even afraid to tell you that I know the person who struck.”

Wang Ping’s expression darkened.

The matter of Centurion Zhou Lie going to Jiuxuan City to challenge others had spread for quite a while in Qianhun City, but later people gradually stopped mentioning it.

No one knew exactly what happened, but everyone knew that it was Qianhun City’s face being stepped on.

Could it be that it was really as this person said…

Was it that they had too little experience?
