Chapter 887: Chapter 568: Competing for Lu Lin, Peerless Talent, Time Is Running Out

Dragon... Elder.

Lu Lin was immediately taken aback.

He had been on General Mountain for quite some time and naturally knew which big shots truly existed within the Holy Land.

The topmost was undoubtedly the Holy Land Master Lv Potian, followed by the seven Elders.

These seven Elders possessed immense combat power, wielded mysterious techniques, and were among the longest-standing figures on General Mountain, renowned for their virtue and respectability, with distinguished status, often handling various matters and organizational tasks themselves.

On General Mountain, they were at the pinnacle in terms of rights, ability, and position.

Heng Shan, Li Song, Cheng Yu, Ting Yu, Han Chan, Gui Bei, Long.

These were the names of the seven Elders.

Among these seven, although the combat power of the other six was indeed formidable, it was evident that they fell short compared to Master Wan Chong, the Number One Under the Saint.

There was only one, whose hard power didn’t lose to Master Wan Chong, and even faintly surpassed him.

This person was the low-key Elder Long.

Master Wan Chong had a prominent reputation throughout Longyuan World; nearly every cultivator knew his name. As for Elder Long, he remained obscure because he was low-key and introverted, primarily cultivating within the Holy Land.

But the big shots inside General Mountain almost all knew.

In contrast to Master Wan Chong, who resorted to various means and managed to escape with life under the pursuit of two Saint Lords, Elder Long’s achievements were astonishing.

He could face off against the Holy Land Master directly, remaining undefeated in 100 Moves.

Beyond 100 Moves, even though Elder Long was outmatched, he could still escape with life from the Saint Lord’s hands due to the Star Power inside him.

This achievement wasn’t others’ estimates or guesses.

But a solid, true achievement.

Lu Lin didn’t know that much, but he undoubtedly knew that Elder Long was the strongest and most prestigious among the seven Great Elders.

Even Saint Lord Lv Potian had to take Elder Long’s words seriously.

However, he had just finished the first two rounds of the arena battles, so why would the other side seek him out now?

The key point is, since the most powerful of the seven Elders, Long, found him, Lu Lin couldn’t outright refuse.

"Haha, no need to be nervous, Lu Lin."

Elder Long spoke plainly, "Indeed, my visit is quite sudden, but you can go back and consider it. Before all battles in the arena are concluded, you can inform Li Song of your choice at any time."

"However, I must emphasize upfront."

"Your power of the flesh is exceptionally strong."

"As for myself, I have quite a few insights and thoughts in the research and cultivation of the physical body; if you agree to become my disciple, I’ll pour immense effort into you."

"Until now, I’ve only ever accepted one disciple, but this guy has been honing himself in the Extraterritorial Battlefield for the last few millennia. If you join my school, the treatment will only be better than others and not inferior."

"Some time ago, Heng Shan mentioned your agreement with him regarding the promotion of your clan members back home—he might not be able to help in a short time on that matter, but I can take over."

Throughout, Elder Long maintained an attitude of serenity and mildness. He did not wield the majesty of a Great Elder nor suppressed or pressured Lu Lin; he merely stated what benefits and gains Lu Lin would have if he became his disciple.

Lu Lin couldn’t resist being tempted.

The conditions Elder Long offered were too generous.

He specialized in cultivating the physical body, and Lu Lin’s body had reached its limit.

Dragon’s Power.

The cultivation of the Golden Body Sutra had also hit a bottleneck, or rather, bottleneck might be an inaccurate term.

Lu Lin had already cultivated the Golden Body Sutra to its peak, with no possibility to continue advancing further.

As for creating a cultivation method himself, that’s something Lu Lin couldn’t do at present.

If he could apprentice under Elder Long, he’d certainly make significant progress in physical practice, and might even gain one or several methods of physical cultivation from Elder Long. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Furthermore, Elder Long excelled in various weapon warfare techniques. Lu Lin already had a complete method for Ten Steps Kill in cultivation, needing nothing further, but as Long’s disciple, he could regularly discuss and compete with Elder Long.

With Elder Long’s profound research, it would undoubtedly greatly benefit Lu Lin’s cultivation of Ten Steps Kill.

Regarding discipleship, Lu Lin wasn’t too worried.

His cultivation process required honestly not many resources.

What he needed was slaughter, battles, and devouring.

No matter the number of disciples under Elder Long, he wouldn’t have any conflicts with others.

Of course, the fewer people, the better—this way, there won’t be so many bothersome things on usual days.

Elder Long’s narrative left Lu Lin quite tempted.

However, Elder Ting Yu was still by his side, so Lu Lin couldn’t directly make a choice.

This would inevitably offend Ting Yu.

After all, it would be unkind to make a choice when the other party hadn’t spoken a word yet.

"You old Dragon, really..."

Elder Ting Yu couldn’t help but roll her eyes upon hearing Elder Long’s narrative.

He’s made things so clear—what can Elder Ting Yu possibly say?

Soul Power cultivation is inherently a very personal endeavor.

Even though Elder Ting Yu’s Soul Power cultivation is strong, she can’t help disciples quickly elevate their cultivation of Soul Power.

At most, she can explain some methods and teach some secrets, but true cultivation relies on the disciples’ own enlightenment and efforts.

As for Lu Lin’s talent in Soul Power... Elder Ting Yu was almost envious, her eyes turning red.
