Chapter 61 - The 108 Tribulations of a Lone Cultivator (1/2)

This was a method he had been lacking. He had been at Level 6 for a long time, but his Mental Strength was still chaotic. Though it was closer to being scattered than chaotic, compared to a normal person, he had been unable to condense and shape it.

To a Mental Awakened, being able to condense Mental Strength to a desired form was an essential step.

If one could not condense one’s Mental Strength, then they would always be third-rate. It could be said that this was the first ceiling in the way of the path of Cultivators.

Still, the skills he inherited from his sect was lacking. Even if they hailed him as the greatest talent from their sect in the past hundred years, he was still stuck at this stage, unable to make a breakthrough.

It was because of this that when he saw Lu Xuan’s Mental Strength condense into the form of a Golden Dragon, he was scared speechless.

He had only heard hearsay about condensing Mental Strength, but the Cultivation Legacy had been cut off, and it had basically become the stuff of legends.

The method that Lu Xuan was passing down to him now would help him to condense his Mental Strength. It was as though Lu Xuan had created a new path for him to climb the cliff before him, allowing him to move past this dead end.

His eyes flashed with an expression of wild euphoria, but when he looked at Lu Xuan, he hid his look of joy.

His mind was filled with countless speculations about Lu Xuan’s provenance. He had heard tales of some extremely powerful Legacies being passed down on Earth in the distant past era.

It was only later, when, for an unknown reason, these powerful Legacies all disappeared one after another. Could Lu Xuan be one of the people who received such an inheritance?

No matter how one looked at it, he seemed to fit the bill. He was young yet powerful with seemingly bottomless strength, and he possessed a strong Cultivation from an unknown source.

All in all, it matched with how the inheritors of these powerful Legacies were portrayed on the Dark Web.

It this was truly the case, then… it was fantastic!

It was obviously very beneficial to latch on to someone as powerful as him!

Even the small scraps he picked up from Lu Xuan would be enough for a lone Cultivator like himself to have his fill.

It was tough being a lone Cultivator. Who could understand a lone Cultivator’s tears!?

If he were to put it into writing, he could totally write a book titled “A Treatise on the 108 Tribulations of a Lone Cultivator.” However, Zhang Hongyang put the thought out of his mind at once. There were too many pirated copies of books available now, and nobody was willing to read an original copy. He had heard that authors who wrote publications online were struggling to make ends meet.

Now, he finally had a powerful backer, and he could make a name for himself at last!

The information the Luo family provided him with prior to his return to Huaxia was complete crap in hindsight. He had originally thought that Lu Xuan was just a regular martial arts legend and was, at most, a little stronger than average.

With three of them working together, there was nobody they could not kill!

Thinking back on it now, he had really thought too much of themselves back then!

Lu Xuan was unaware that in this short period of time, Zhang Hongyang had such a long internal monologue.

To Zhang Hongyang, this was an unprecedented opportunity, but for Lu Xuan, it was a casual act of charity.

Lu Xuan had his fair share of struggles in the early stages of his past life. Nobody knew how difficult it was for him to get started, but as he continued his rise to power, all kinds of resources came snowballing towards him.

No matter what field one was in, the real difficulty was finding the first pot of gold to get one started!

“Thank you, Young Master!”

Zhang Hongyang hurriedly bowed down in thanks. After receiving the mantra that Lu Xuan had gifted him, he found that his Mental Strength, which had been damaged in his confrontation with Lu Xuan, was also recovering.

Before, he would have to slowly recuperate himself. Yet now, it was recovering in such a short time.

“I only have one thing to request of you right now!” Lu Xuan said to Zhang Hongyang.

“Please give me your orders, Young Master!” Zhang Hongyang quickly composed himself, submitting to the authority of his new master.
