Chapter 161: Becoming an Apprentice

  Looking at the calm and thoroughly transformed Lu Feng, a dazzling light flashed in Dao Congtian's eyes. Previously, in his impression, Lu Feng was only an existence with extraordinary talent, having the hope of breaking free from that one shackle. If not for that hope, he would never have accepted Lu Feng as his disciple. After all, what Dao Congtian wanted in a disciple required the strictest examination. As for Lu Feng, he knew too little about him, and even if he acknowledged Lu Feng, there was always a thread of worry in his heart.

  However, when Zhao Kun conveyed Lu Feng's performance to him at the beginning, Dao Cheng Tian was thoroughly moved. His last bit of concern had completely disappeared. A strong soul is also a kind of innate talent. But that great will has nothing to do with any qualifications! That is a person's true inner reaction. And having such a heart, as long as it does not fall, it is destined to climb to the highest heavens and transform into a true dragon. Therefore, he no longer had any concerns about accepting Lu Feng as his disciple.

  But now, when he really saw Lu Feng for the first time, he was satisfied, exceptionally satisfied.

  Intermediate cultivator, advanced warrior, these are just the lowest levels among the strong. But in this low level, he found his own way with a few words!

  It's worth noting that he was only able to find his own path after becoming a Saint Master for over a hundred years, and even then it was during the chaotic era of the Divine Kings' later period. This in itself is a heaven-defying miracle. But as for Lu Feng, he had found it so easily. Such a disciple couldn't even be described with the word "satisfactory" anymore.

  Looking at Lu Feng, Daotian Cong slowly but solemnly asked: "Lu Feng, are you willing to let me be your guide on this path? Let me become your master..."

  Master, is different from teacher. A teacher only imparts knowledge and resolves doubts. However, a master, must teach about life, and take responsibility for the disciple's entire life!

  The Taoist master had hundreds and thousands of disciples, each one a leader or a true speaker of those aristocratic families. However, among these hundreds and thousands of disciples, only four called him Master!

  These four people are all famous overlords in the Federation, and even the youngest disciple was only allowed to call Dao Xiang Tian his master a hundred years ago. In the past hundred years, Dao Xiang Tian has devoted himself to teaching his disciples, but he has never accepted a closed-door disciple. Now, he is finally going to accept another disciple, truly accepting one.

  Li Tianlai looked at Lu Feng, and at this moment, he didn't have any jealous emotions. He had witnessed Lu Feng's performance with his own eyes, and everything that had happened was something he had personally experienced. If it weren't for Lu Feng's sufficient strength, then at this moment, Li Tianlai would even have to address him as a senior! After all, Lu Feng was an enlightened one!

  Jealousy, that is for people on the same level. A beggar may be jealous of a billionaire, but they will never be jealous of those who are incredibly powerful. Because between them and those powerful ones, there is an insurmountable gap. They don't even have the qualification to be jealous!

  Lu Feng is destined to be a great existence in Li Tianlai's eyes.

  The world was quiet between heaven and earth. Li Tianlai quietly looked at Lu Feng, and Dao Songtian did the same. They were all waiting for Lu Feng's response.

  At this moment, Lu Feng was extremely silent. He didn't say anything, and the atmosphere was eerily quiet. Finally, after thinking for a long time, Lu Feng lifted his head. He looked at Dao Xing Tian in front of him with a faint smile. He finally spoke up: "I am willing to become your disciple..."

  At this moment, Dao Songtian revealed a smile from the bottom of his heart, and Li Tianlai was the same. Everyone knows that finding a suitable teacher is extremely difficult. However, it's even more difficult for a teacher to find a suitable disciple. The current Lu Feng, no matter which aspect, has far exceeded Dao Songtian's expectations. Such a disciple is absolutely the most perfect and satisfying one he has ever met in his life. Therefore, even if Dao Songtian would not be willing to give up such a disciple.

  But just as the two were smiling, Lu Feng suddenly spoke up again: "However, it's not now..."

  Upon hearing this, Dao Xiang Tian was slightly taken aback, but only for an instant before he smiled again. This smile grew even more radiant and satisfied.

  By his side, Li Tianlai was slightly anxious. He looked at Dao Songtian and Lu Feng, wanting to say something, but because of his identity, he hesitated and didn't say anything in the end.

  Upon seeing this scene, Dao Songtian lightly waved his hand and said to Li Tianlai: "Tianlai, you don't need to say anything else. Just go along with Lu Feng's idea!"

  Lu Feng is a cultivator who has entered the Dao. His strength may not be comparable to his own, but his existence has already reached the same level as himself, the ancient sages, and those extremely powerful beings. Such people have embarked on their own path and solidified their inner heart. Once they make up their mind, nothing can change it, even if the heavens collapse and time is destroyed.

  So Lu Feng made up his mind, and that was it.

  After speaking with Li Tian, Dao Songtian looked at Lu Feng and continued: "I know you plan to wait until next year's assessment and openly become my disciple. However, your current strength is still a bit lacking. During this vacation, follow me and learn."

  "After a holiday, I believe that with your own conditions, passing the assessment should be no problem."

  Lu Feng's talent development degree reached the strongest 2.4 since ancient times, and such a high talent development degree represents not only his extraordinary innate abilities but also the terrifying boost in battle!

  Dào Sòng Tiān believed that as long as Lù Fēng entered the ranks of high-level cultivators, relying on his spiritual development degree, even if it was a galaxy's unparalleled genius-level peak high-level cultivator, they would not be his opponent. He had confidence in Lù Fēng, with sufficiently strong confidence.

  When Lu Feng heard Dao Xiang Tian's words, he nodded. He knew that with the guidance of this quasi-emperor, his vacation would necessarily have a qualitative improvement. This was what Lu Feng had felt before contact, and when he saw it with his own eyes, under the leadership of this great being, Lu Feng's confidence became even more intense.

  "But now you can call me teacher. After all, a teacher is not necessarily a revered master. Once you pass the assessment, I will formally accept you as my closed-door disciple!"

  Hearing Daotian's firm tone, Lufeng didn't say anything else. Calling him "teacher" was nothing to begin with.

  Lu Feng respectfully bowed his head and shouted: "Greetings, Master."

  The corners of his eyes were countless satisfied smiles. Dao Song Tian nodded and then gently waved his hand, helping Lu Feng straighten up.

  Seeing this, Li Tianlai knew he no longer needed to stay. He smiled at Lu Feng and said: "Little brother, congratulations. Under the teacher's guidance, with your talent, your future will be boundless. Alright, I won't disturb your studies anymore, big brother is leaving first."

  Even if Lu Feng became the gatekeeper of Dao Songtian, Li Tianlai was still his senior brother. Although there was a difference in status, this hierarchy had always existed.

  After saying this, Li Tianlai looked at Dao Songtian and bowed respectfully before saying: "Master, the disciple will take his leave first."

  Daogong Tian nodded lightly and made a swift gesture, creating a rift in the void. Li Tianlai didn't hesitate and walked directly into the fissure, choosing to leave.

  After Li Tianlai left, Dao Songtian looked at Lu Feng. Originally, the first time they met, according to normal procedures, they should have gotten familiar with each other first, but these two didn't have that kind of common courtesy. One was the current number one Nian Shi, who could fight any virtual king and was one of the peak masters of the human tribe, Dao Songtian. The other had the greatest Nian Shi talent since ancient times, and was a terrifying demon who had entered the Way in the realm of lower-level strongmen. Between them, due to entering the Way, it seemed as if they had been familiar with each other for countless years, without any distance or estrangement existing.

  Daogong Tian lightly opened his mouth, and at this moment, formal learning had officially begun.

  "Lu Feng, I think you have now reached the middle-level cultivator's level. Currently, your main goal is to break through and enter the realm of a high-level cultivator. Once you become a high-level cultivator, your strength will double."

  "Before becoming a Grand Master, the way of fighting for Masters was just mechanical confrontation. After all, you can't use any Master skills before your soul is manifested and your spiritual power is materialized."

  Lu Feng nodded slightly. Normally, without spiritual force materialization, it is impossible to build complex patterns in the Nianshi Gongfa, and in that case, the Nianshi cannot use spiritual force to activate the power existing in the void, causing huge destructive power.

  If the soul cannot be materialized, the control is also insufficient, and it is impossible to outline and control those lines. Therefore, after learning from a master of great intention, one can learn some meditation techniques from a master of subtle intention, which is due to this reason.

  If it were in the past, then Lu Feng would not have cared. But now, Lu Feng did not think so. When he became a mid-level cultivator, he successfully materialized his soul, although he still couldn't leave his body, but the existence of his soul was real. And since he could have an independently materialized soul as a mid-level cultivator, it's not impossible to have a released spiritual power at the level of a high-level cultivator!

  After all, the main reason for the substantialization and externalization of spiritual power is the existence of the soul.

  So, Lu Feng didn't hesitate and directly asked the question he had when he came: "Teacher, I know this point, but I still want to ask, what exactly is the relationship between the activation of Gongfa and the materialization of spiritual power?"
