78: Chapter 78 The Place Where Opportunity Lies

"Hahaha, you are very smart, truly my beloved disciple. Although there is your master's guidance, it is still inseparable from your own talent."

Listening to Lin Shen's respectful reply, Mo Shenggu couldn't help but burst into laughter, feeling very satisfied in his heart.

Look at that...

This was the exact kind of Personal Disciple he idealised most. Even after achieving a perfect Foundation Establishment, he remained neither arrogant nor impetuous, and even attributed the primary credit to himself.

Amidst his laughter, Mo Shenggu looked at Lin Shen and continued to speak: "Shen'er, weren't you very curious before why I asked you to Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm within five years?"

"This disciple is indeed very curious about this."

Hearing Mo Shenggu bring this matter up again, Lin Shen hurriedly nodded, looking inquiringly at Mo Shenggu.

Back then, Mo Shenggu had demanded that he Breakthrough the Foundation Establishment within five years, saying that an Opportunity was waiting for him.

Over the past four years or so, he had diligently Cultivated, striving to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment early, all for the sake of the Opportunity spoken of by Mo Shenggu.

Now that he had successfully achieved a Breakthrough in Foundation Establishment, he was even more curious about this Opportunity, hoping it would be something of immense help to him.

Facing Lin Shen's curious gaze, Mo Shenggu smiled and explained: "The reason why I hoped you would Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment within five years back then is because in one year, a Secret Realm jointly controlled by our Chiyun Valley and the other four major Sects is about to open."

However, this Secret Realm has age and cultivation restrictions; only those under fifty years old at the Foundation Establishment Realm can enter.

Exactly for this reason, I specifically requested that you Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm as soon as possible, so that you can enter this Secret Realm to contend for the Opportunity!"

"Indeed, this Secret Realm has numerous Opportunities and only opens once every hundred years. Last time, among those from our Chiyun Valley who entered this Secret Realm and obtained Opportunities, two people have already broken through to the Golden Core Realm and become real-power Elders of our Chiyun Valley."

Mo Xiaoyu, standing to the side, also spoke at this moment.

The gaze she cast at Lin Shen was somewhat complicated, but she quickly adjusted her emotions and said with an affectionate smile: "I am also under fifty years old at Foundation Establishment, so I am also qualified to enter that Secret Realm together. By then, the two of us must join hands and work hard together to reap the Opportunities."

More than four years ago, because of the death of Senior Brother Shen Qianfan, she had once tested and warned Lin Shen.

Thinking back on it now, it made Mo Xiaoyu feel instantly incomparably regretful.

Senior Brother Shen Qianfan was dead and gone; a dead person simply could not be resurrected on the spot.

What she hadn't expected was that she had actually made a foolish choice, allowing a trace of unpleasantness to arise between herself and Lin Shen because of the dead Senior Brother Shen Qianfan.

Back then, Mo Xiaoyu never expected Lin Shen to Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm so quickly; she had thought Lin Shen would at least take a decade or so.

Now it seemed that she had miscalculated somewhat back then.

However, Mo Xiaoyu did not dwell too much on Lin Shen.

Because she believed Lin Shen was a smart person, and her actions back then were also for Lin Shen's own good, for the good of the entire Luoyun Peak.

Plus, she hadn't caused any actual impact on Lin Shen. For the interests of the entire Sect, Mo Xiaoyu believed that as long as Lin Shen was smart enough, he would not harbor any lingering resentment toward her over this matter.

Therefore, Mo Xiaoyu's attitude toward Lin Shen had naturally improved now, hoping that after arriving at that Secret Realm, the two of them could join hands to obtain the Opportunities within the Secret Realm together.

Listening to the words of the two, Lin Shen suddenly came to a realization, a trace of burning eagerness flashing within his eyes.

He hadn't expected it to be a Secret Realm jointly controlled by the five major Sects.

If he could enter it, relying on the treasure-seeking compass, he would definitely be able to obtain the greatest Opportunity from it.

At that time, once he successfully evacuated from the Secret Realm, his cultivation speed and development would definitely advance by leaps and bounds, and breaking through to the Golden Core or even higher Realms in the future would hold even more hope.

"Master, rest assured, this disciple understands your intentions!"

Lin Shen nodded, looked at Senior Sister Mo to the side, and said: "Senior Sister Mo's words are very true. You are Master's most beloved granddaughter, and I am Master's Personal Disciple; you and I are naturally family. If we enter the Secret Realm, I will definitely assist Senior Sister Mo with all my might."

As for the thoughts of Mo Shenggu and the Mo Xiaoyu before him, Lin Shen was naturally crystal clear about them.

The main reason Mo Shenggu was anxious about whether he could Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment as soon as possible was probably to have him assist Mo Xiaoyu in obtaining Opportunities after entering the Secret Realm.

However, great Opportunities belong to those with the ability!

Lin Shen was only saying it with his mouth for now, first to steady these two people, Mo Shenggu and Mo Xiaoyu.

Once they encounter a great Opportunity...

Never mind that Mo Xiaoyu was only Mo Shenggu's biological granddaughter, even if she were Mo Shenggu's father, it wouldn't work!

"Shen'er is truly sensible!"

Listening to Lin Shen's airtight reply and looking at Lin Shen before him, Mo Shenggu was even more satisfied.

His original intention was indeed this.

The reason why he hoped Lin Shen could Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment as soon as possible was mainly because of Mo Xiaoyu.

He was not at ease with Mo Xiaoyu going to the Secret Realm alone to fight for Opportunities.

If she had Lin Shen, who acted more cautiously and meticulously, to accompany and assist her, then Mo Xiaoyu's safety and the probability of obtaining Opportunities would definitely be much greater.

It was just a pity that his eldest disciple, Senior Brother Shen Qianfan, was still in seclusion and didn't even have any news.

Otherwise, if he had also broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, the three of them joining forces inside that Secret Realm would definitely be even safer, and the harvest would be even greater.

Thinking of Senior Brother Shen Qianfan, Mo Shenggu couldn't help shaking his head, and asked Mo Xiaoyu beside him: "Right, is there still no news about your Senior Brother? He used to care for you so warmly all the time; has he contacted you during this period?"

"No. Presumably Senior Brother is at a critical juncture of seclusion, otherwise he wouldn't have vanished for so long!"

Hearing Mo Shenggu's words, Mo Xiaoyu subconsciously glanced at Lin Shen, then shook her head.

Now that Lin Shen had broken through to Foundation Establishment, and it was a perfect Foundation Establishment, Mo Xiaoyu was even more certain in her heart that Senior Brother Shen Qianfan's death must be related to Lin Shen.

After all, being able to break through to Foundation Establishment in one stroke over a span of more than four years, and a perfect Foundation Establishment at that, proved that Lin Shen's foundation was already extremely profound beforehand, and his strength must be extremely formidable.

With such strength and foundation, he could slay Senior Brother Shen Qianfan, who was also at the Qi Refining Peak.

However, this matter was no longer important, and Mo Xiaoyu did not intend to thoroughly investigate it further.

Right now, she only wanted to establish a good relationship with Lin Shen, have the two of them venture into the Secret Realm hand in hand, and have Lin Shen assist her to help her obtain the Opportunity that might allow her to break through to the Golden Core Realm in the future.

"Sigh, no news is no news then!"

Hearing that Mo Xiaoyu also had no news of Senior Brother Shen Qianfan, Mo Shenggu did not think deeply into it. He only assumed that Senior Brother Shen Qianfan knew he wouldn't give him resources, and it was very likely he had hidden away alone to secretly Cultivate in seclusion, wanting to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, Lin Shen lowered his brows slightly to the side, sensing Mo Xiaoyu's subconscious gaze just moments ago, and could not help but sneer inwardly.

As expected, this woman was still doubting him!

It was just because he now had a perfect Foundation Establishment, possessing sufficient strength and status, and she wanted to use him to help her obtain Opportunities, that she didn't voice out her doubts and conjectures.

Just as the few of them were speaking, a streak of light flashed from afar, swiftly arriving beside Lin Shen and the others.
