479 The Martial Arts Grandmaster (2/2)
This was because he did not believe that the elder was willing to wait for him for fifty years. Hence, maybe he only thought of Mo Wen as a spare partner, a second option of some sort.
”As expected, you are really intelligent. What you said is true. Many have worked with me, but without exception, all of them have failed. You are not the only person that I am preparing to work together with next. As such, I can only say that there is a possibility for you in the future,” the elder in sackcloth explained.
He spoke plainly, as did not have any intention of hiding this. After all, this youth was no ordinary person. Even if he did not say everything out loud, Mo Wen would mostly probably know it in his heart.
”However, it is difficult to become immortal. As such, even in another fifty years, I might still not be able to do it.” As he spoke, the elder in sackcloth looked at Mo Wen.
The reason that he had found this youth was because, in Mo Wen, he saw a glimpse of hope. He had said the same words many times, as he had chosen many partners to work with before. However, none of those previous partners had the proper abilities.
The reason why he chose Mo Wen was mainly because this youth had a very frightening potential, as well as an almost peerless ability that people of the same realm simply could not match.
As such, he was very likely to become a future Martial Arts Grandmaster. If he could grow up properly and tap into his potential completely, he should absolutely be able to become his most compatible partner!
”Senior, you are sure calm. However, I am very curious about those who worked with you and failed. What happened to them?” Mo Wen curled his lips into a faint smile and his eyes were crystal clear.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
The elder in sackcloth merely glanced at Mo Wen, but he did not say anything. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes and seemed to fall into a deep slumber.
Seeing this, Mo Wen saluted him and did not say anything else, but turned around and left after bidding him a silent farewell. Besides, the answer to his question was obvious. The people who had failed had all perished!
Maybe they died in the incident, or maybe they had died at the hands of the elder in sackcloth. Regardless, none of them had survived. This was because, before becoming immortal, that secret could only be known by one person, as only then was it a secret!
Chen Zi quietly stood at the entrance to the village, watching a group of children playing. The few powerful monstrous beasts were like the children's playthings, well-behaved and cute. The children loved them.
”What did you all talk about?” Seeing Mo Wen coming out, Chen Zi asked him curiously. She felt that this village was too bizarre, and that elder seemed to be especially so.
”We were just making small talk.” Mo Wen shook his head.
”Well, we better be on our way. Yesterday, we spent a whole night travelling, but as it turns out, we were heading in the opposite direction!”
Chen Zi quickly changed the subject, deciding that if Mo Wen did not say anything, she would not pry. Then, she stubbornly dragged Mo Wen out of the village.
If they had not happened across this village, they would most likely have still kept travelling in vain for a few more days, going in the wrong direction. Moreover, in a situation where they had no landmarks or references, the chances of them having gotten even more lost was very high!
”In the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, what cultivation does the strongest person have?” Only after they were quite far away from the village did Mo Wen ask this question with a serious expression.
He couldn't believe that he had actually met a Martial Arts Grandmaster! He had only met this type of person twice in his entire life! Once was in the Divine Pill Sect, and the man was an old odd-jobs servant.
He was not an immortal cultivator, but an ancient martial art practitioner. However, he had practiced until he had reached the realm of the Martial Arts Grandmaster. However, he was still living the life of an odd-jobs servant. He truly was a hidden dragon!
But, at least in this world, this was his first time encountering a Martial Arts Grandmaster!
”The strongest person?” Chen Zi contemplated his questions for a while, then said, ”There once existed a few strong practitioners of the later stage of the Golden Elixir realm in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. But, they have not appeared for many years, so no one knows whether these people are even still alive.”
She then added, ”The currently known strongest are at the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. Among the Eight Major Influences, all of them have intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm strong practitioners holding the forts down. Also among the Eight Major Influences, there may be secret existences, who are hiding away ancient martial art practitioners of the later stage of the Golden Elixir realm.”
Chen Zi was also not certain of such things. Before this, rumors had spread throughout the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, speaking of the presence a few later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners.
However, these rumors were decades old. As such, it remained unknown whether these few strong practitioners were even still alive.
”Could it be that there are no pinnacle of Golden Elixir realm ancient martial arts practitioners?” Mo Wen asked.
”Pinnacle of Golden Elixir realm? Maybe centuries ago there might have been, but definitely not in recent years. After all, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension is just a very small Inner World, and it is not very powerful. As such, it cannot be compared to the bigger Inner Worlds.” Chen Zi shook her head.
Once an ancient martial art practitioner reached the Golden Elixir realm, improving any further was too difficult. For this reason, many people had practiced to the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm and had remained there for the rest of their lives.
In the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, there were quite a few Golden Elixir realm ancient martial arts practitioners, but there were only a very few intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. As for later stage Golden Elixir realm, Chen Zi did not know if there were any at all, and even if there were, they were rare existences, appearing at one moment and disappearing the next!
”Every world has its mysteries.” Mo Wen smiled plainly.
Maybe the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension did not have an existence at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm, but it had a legendary Martial Arts Grandmaster, which was an existence that surpassed even the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm!
Chen Zi did not know why Mo Wen had just said this nonsense about mysteries and such, but she did not think too much into it at the moment. Instead, she just nodded her head and continued on her way. Right now, she really wanted to return to Intentionless City!
