Cultivation System: Stronger with Age-Chapter 727 - 306: Sudden Surge in Strength, Immortal Demon War Brews_2
Of course, when it comes to the most rapid progress and the most comprehensive increase in strength, the title naturally belongs to Lin Xuankong, the "Vigorous in Old Age"!
At this moment, Lin Xuankong stood in his cultivation abode, his consciousness immersed in his Brain Mansion, where lines of large, purple-gold characters flashed continuously.
Lin Xuankong: Remaining Lifespan: seventy-eight thousand, eight hundred and eighty-six years and one hundred eighty-six days.
Life Plate: "Vigorous in Old Age"
First Talent: "Old and Wise" – Cultivation speed increases with age. Current age: eighty-one. Cultivation speed bonus: eighty times.
Second Talent: "Wives, Children, Elders, and Youngsters" – Continuously gain insight and proficiency from the cultivation techniques and skills of his wife and children. His wife and children are also affected by this Life Plate, their cultivation speed increased by forty times. (This influence can be canceled.)
Third Talent: "Bullying the Old and Weak" – Enhances attack effects (Magic, Arrays, Spiritual Beasts) based on the opponent’s age and cultivation realm.
* Against weaker opponents: For each grade an opponent’s cultivation realm is lower than Lin Xuankong’s, the damage multiplier of his attacks increases by two (e.g., if an opponent is one grade lower, damage is 2x; two grades lower, 4x; three grades lower, 6x).
* Against older opponents: For every thousand years an opponent is older than Lin Xuankong, the damage multiplier of his attacks increases by two (following the same progressive pattern).
Fourth Talent: "Piercing the Mountain and Hitting the Ox" – Attacks penetrate all opponent defenses (Battle Armor, Immortal Armor, Magic, Arrays, etc.), ensuring 100% of the attack’s effect is delivered.

[Thousand Cranes Array: Earth Tier Eighth Layer: 119/10,000]
Looking at these lines of purple-gold characters in his mind, Lin Xuankong felt a deep sense of fulfillment.
In just twelve years, even though Lin Xuankong had not dedicated all his time to cultivation, his Immortal Dao Realm had still advanced to the Perfection Realm of a Second-Grade Earth Immortal! Such a speed of realm advancement was utterly astonishing!
Back when Lin Xuankong first entered the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, intending to participate in the discipleship competition, he had met Grand Chief Steward Huang Liutao, whose cultivation realm was at the Late Stage of Second-Grade Earth Immortal.
It is said that every cultivator eligible to join the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect is a top genius from one of countless dynasties. After all, even prominent figures like Emperor Xiaoo of the Great Xia Dynasty and Sect Leader Hua of the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect lacked the qualifications to join the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect as disciples!
The fact that Huang Liutao could become a disciple, advance to the Earth Immortal Realm, and eventually become a Grand Chief Steward indicated his talent was outstanding, even among the tens of thousands of top genius disciples and Earth Immortals within the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect.
Yet, even an Earth Immortal Grand Chief Steward like Huang Liutao had spent roughly two thousand years to reach the Late Stage of Second-Grade Earth Immortal. In contrast, Lin Xuankong had surpassed him in Immortal Dao Realm in just over a dozen years!
Such terrifying cultivation speed, if it were publicly known, would surely make every cultivator in the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region drop their jaws in amazement. After all, Lin Xuankong’s realm advancement over these twelve years wasn’t reliant on the special Immortal Yuan from a Celestial Tribulation, but rather on his own talent and diligent cultivation!
Besides his rapid advancement in the Immortal Dao Realm, reaching the age of eighty had also granted Lin Xuankong two new talents: "Bullying the Old and Weak" and "Piercing the Mountain and Hitting the Ox."
These two extraordinary talents were in no way inferior to his existing "Old and Wise" and "Wives, Children, Elders, and Youngsters"; in fact, they were potentially even more mysterious and powerful! 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The "Bullying the Old and Weak" talent had two amazing effects. One of them, as detailed in its description, targeted cultivators with cultivation realms lower than Lin Xuankong’s. For each grade an opponent was beneath him, the damage inflicted by his attacks would be significantly amplified. Superficially, this might not seem overly potent, as defeating cultivators of lower realms is hardly a remarkable feat.
However, Lin Xuankong was now in the Immortal Realm. Future opponents would, at a minimum, be Earth Immortals, beings with formidable survival capabilities. Even if their Immortal Body was shattered, they could preserve their Divine Soul within their Earth Immortal Golden Core to survive!
Without the Buddha-Calling Jade Talisman, during the siege of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect by the Seventy-six Immortal Sects, even if he had used numerous Immortal Artifacts, Lin Xuankong would have found it extremely difficult to kill an Earth Immortal. Slaying even an Initial Tier Earth Immortal would have required considerable effort!
But now, with the "Bullying the Old and Weak" talent, at his current Second-Grade Earth Immortal Realm, he could inflict quadruple damage upon an Initial Tier Earth Immortal. Once he advanced to Third-Grade, this would increase to sextuple damage against such an opponent!
