“Ugh?” The Ethereal Spiritual Master suspected that he had an auditory hallucination due to his mistake in cultivation.

“What is it?!” With narrowed eyes, he glanced around coldly. Although he was inside the Nanhua Faction, and it was unlikely that demons and devils sneaked in, he was a grand cultivator who had been cultivating for a long time. Therefore, he was more cautious and aware of his surroundings due to his old age and life experience.

It was almost evening, but it was weirdly quiet outside.

A flurry of chilly energy seemed to float in through the gate of the cave abode.

It was as silent and undetectable as a gloomy soul.

“Are you dissatisfied?” That voice seemed to come from all directions. But at the same time, it seemed to come from the depths of his heart.

“You cultivated hard for so many years but got no returns. Soon, not only your fourth junior brother but the other elders whom are all below you will surpass you one by one.”

“What on earth are you?!” The Ethereal Spiritual Master’s handsome face turned wicked while he glanced around coldly.

“Your talent is better than most of the other elders, but due to this mysterious bottleneck, you’ve been stuck for more than a dozen years. Do you hate it?”

“How do you know?” The Ethereal Spiritual Master’s face turned even chiller.

“Because I… am you!” the voice sneered, “I share your thoughts and your mind. I was born in your heart.”

“Nonsense!” The Ethereal Spiritual Master’s face turned cold while the murderous spirit in his eyes intensified. Instantly, waves of horrifying wind blades swept out from his body!

“Die!”

The tables, chairs, bowls, and cabinets around him were shattered by many sharp blades, and the whole room was turned into a ruin in the blink of an eye!

Silence.

The Ethereal Spiritual Master exhaled a mouthful of turbid qi. He had hurt himself due to the small accident in his cultivation, and he forced himself to use spiritual essence, adding salt to his injury.

He let out a cold laugh, thinking that the devil who tried to lure him must have been killed by him.

However, in the next moment, that voice whispered at his ear again, “You can’t kill me because we share the same body.”

“How can it be?!” The Ethereal Spiritual Master’s heart sank. “What kind of devil are you?!”

“Didn’t I tell you? I’m you…”

The atmosphere in the area got even gloomier while endless pitch-black thick mist gushed into the cave abode like waves.

“No! What on earth are you?! How did you slip through the restriction array around my cave abode?!”

“I’m your deepest desire, and I know all you know.” Endless pitch-black thick mist engulfed the Ethereal Spiritual Master like ocean waves!

“Come… Come with me… You’ll get what you want to have…” That voice got deeper and chillier.

Engulfed by the black mist, the Ethereal Spiritual Master’s eyes turned red and then became pitch-black as if thick ink had been injected into them. However, his eyes showed that he was still struggling.

“You can’t do it!” His eyes looked furious. “You’re evil, so don’t even think about controlling me!”

With a furious roar, the Ethereal Spiritual Master viciously unleashed all his cultivation strength toward the mass of black mist while the spiritual light in his eyes turned dim and bright, alternating repeatedly.

Then, the blackness in his eyes obviously gained the upper hand and pressed down his spiritual essence!

Sometime later, the Ethereal Spiritual Master’s eyes turned almost completely dark, and the clearness was totally suppressed.

…

As an elder and master of many disciples, the Xichi Spiritual Master found it not right to enter and play in the Origins Internet Club with a group of disciples, even though she had a good time with them.

She was afraid that she would be influenced by her disciples if the situation continued!

She knew that she should invite several other elders who were at her own realm to team up with her, but the other elders were either busy with duties or cultivating in seclusion.

She thought for a while and remembered that her Junior Brother Ye Tang, the Ethereal Spiritual Master, had been cultivating in seclusion for a long time, and it was about time for him to come out.

At this thought, she came to the Ethereal Spiritual Master’s cave abode.

Two Daoist kids at the gate immediately came up to greet her and said, “Our master… is still cultivating in seclusion.”

[TL Note: In Daoism, it is common for Daoists to take kids as apprentices since they are better at learning things.]

“Who said that I’m still cultivating in seclusion?!”

A man wearing a black robe appeared in front of the cave abode instantly, and his aura appeared thicker than before. But at the same time, the aura also seemed deeper and unreadable.

However, his manners and behavior were still the same.

“Congratulations for gaining progress in your cultivation strength, Junior Brother! Are you, um, out of your seclusion cultivation?” The Xichi Spiritual Master asked happily.

“I am!”

The Xichi Spiritual Master sensed his cultivation strength and said in surprise, “Junior Brother, your cultivation strength has progressed so fast! Congratulations!”

“Of course,” The Ethereal Spiritual Master said proudly, “With my current speed, I guess I’ll soon surpass the Fourth Elder again and might even surpass you, Senior Sister, if you don’t mind my saying so!”

The Xichi Spiritual Master was surprised. “It seems that you have obtained lots of inspirations during your years of seclusion cultivation?”

“Besides that…” Suddenly, a trace of a struggle appeared in the Ethereal Spiritual Master’s eyes as if he were reluctant to do something and was struggling with something in his mind. But soon, he recovered and said, “It’s because I found a very special cultivation method. Senior Sister, if you’re interested, you can join me at midnight tonight!”

“Oh?” The Xichi Spiritual Master frowned. “In fact, I also found a method which can increase cultivation strength fast. If you’re interested, you can come with me now.”

“Ugh?!” The Ethereal Spiritual Master’s eyes were unreadable while he said with a laugh, “Senior Sister, you must be joking. I’m afraid that your method can’t be better than mine.”

The Xichi Spiritual Master was displeased, wondering how his method could be better than watching Jade Dynasty and playing the Legend of Mir 2 and Grand Theft Auto 5.

She said, “Junior Brother, stop kidding. My method probably has the best effects in the world.”

“Oh?” The Ethereal Spiritual Master snickered and said, “Please don’t tease me, Senior Sister. I think my method is absolutely not worse than yours.”

“Are you sure?” The Xichi Spiritual Master said with a smile, “You’re very confident of yourself, Junior Brother. Is it possible that you’ve also watched Jade Dynasty?”

“No. I haven’t!” The Ethereal Spiritual Master said while shaking his head.

The Xichi Spiritual Master continued, “Have you played the Legend of Mir 2?”

The Ethereal Spiritual Master was a little miffed. “What’s that? I haven’t!”

“Do you know about the Heavenly Book?!” The Xichi Spiritual Master recited one sentence, “At the beginning of the world, the chaos filled the space with the sun and the moon concealing their light and the heaven and the earth blurring their boundaries. Then, they began to take shape, and the pure and turbid began to separate…”

Each sentence sounded as resonant as a huge bell, and the ultimate truth the words contained stunned the Ethereal Spiritual Master. Meanwhile, his gaze recovered a trace of clearness, and he asked, “Senior Sister, what did you just chant?!”

“The Heavenly Book!” the Xichi Spiritual Master said, “Today, I’ll take you to experience it in the Origins Internet Club. Do you want to go?!”

“I do!” After recovering a trace of clearness in his eyes, the Ethereal Spiritual Master quickly yelled.

Meanwhile, Yue Yan was looking at a young cultivator curiously. “Senior Brother Long Yi, you mean you have a special method which can increase the cultivation strength? You’re sure that you can surpass the Faction Master’s disciple, Senior Brother Li, in this year’s faction competition?

“I’m sorry, but I don’t want to go. I have to go to bed early because I need to get up early to drive cars…”

She was the seventh junior sister that he had approached, and every one of them said that they would go and drive cars tomorrow. While suppressing his anger, he asked, “What on earth is driving cars?”
