38: He is different from other cultivators.

The magnificent and vast golden sea phenomenon echoed throughout the sky above the entire Holy Land, causing countless disciples and Peak Lords to look up at the sky in continuous amazement.

"Heavens!"

"Who is breaking through?! To actually cause such a commotion?"

"I don't know, but anyone whose breakthrough causes a phenomenon is definitely not an ordinary person!"

"What does this phenomenon mean? I've lived for eight thousand years and this is the first time I've seen it!"

"I'm not clear, but it's so magnificent..."

The crowd had never seen this kind of phenomenon before.

Some just looked up curiously for a moment, while others, finding the phenomenon very novel, recorded it.

In fact, it wasn't just them; even those Supreme Elders who had lived for tens of thousands of years within the Myriad Demon Graveyard had never seen it before either.

"How strange, is there something I haven't seen before?"

"Interesting..."

"It's the Holy Son's breakthrough commotion. This Holy Son is indeed very different."

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

The cold wind blew chillingly across this desolate and lonely Myriad Demon Graveyard. There wasn't a single figure here, only sounds rising and falling one after another.

"He's not even twenty yet and is already in the Venerable King realm, truly a monstrous talent."

"Thinking back then, our first genius, Ji Hongchen, was already 39 when he broke through to the Venerable King realm. Now this Holy Son is even more monstrous than him... Hiss—he's the greatest genius in the Holy Land's history, does he need protection?"

"Forget it, we can't keep such a heaven-defying figure, just like that Ji Hongchen..."

"True, sigh..."

On Tianyun Mountain.

The early sun brushed over the mountain forest, its light shining down through the gaps in the towering canopy of the Enlightenment Tree, forming speckles of light on the grass.

The morning breeze brought fragrant clear air, and the temperature in the mountains quietly rose.

Looking at the white-robed young man under the tree who had restrained all his aura and stabilized his realm, Chen Nanzhi slightly moved her mouth.

She wanted to say something.

But when the words reached her lips, she didn't know what to say.

It wasn't until the young man walked up to her that she gave a sweet smile and said, "Congratulations, you've broken through again."

"When this month's Ten Talents Ranking is announced, you will definitely shine brightly."

Lin Sheng smiled.

Chen Nanzhi kept smiling, but suddenly she seemed to think of something. Her originally delicate smile gradually faded, and she even turned slightly sideways, letting out a small sigh of relief.

"Why are you sighing, Master?" Lin Sheng asked, puzzled.

Chen Nanzhi looked back at him, her deep, lively beautiful eyes like a rippling deep spring.

"Sigh..."

"Three Dynasties, Five Sects, Nine Clans, Ten Families, Sixteen Regions. Our sixteen Holy Lands on the Four Continents are only considered low-tier in the eyes of top forces. We can only dominate on the Four Continents where spiritual energy is relatively thin."

"When the Genius Ranking is announced, I imagine there will be many forces taking notice of you."

"If they invite you to the Central Immortal Spirit Continent then, I suppose you will go, right?"

The Immortal Spirit Continent is the center of the entire cultivation world.

The spiritual energy there is so dense that it has transformed into immortal energy. There are countless immortal medicines, treasures, and Immortals on it. Most cultivators, after going there, never thought of returning to the "barren land" of the Four Continents.

As soon as Chen Nanzhi said this, Lin Sheng instantly understood.

She must have thought of her most admired Senior Brother Ji Hongchen from the past. He was a genius of the Holy Land at that time, but later left the Holy Land for an Immortal Sect for better cultivation resources.

Actually, speaking lightly, this is not a big deal; it's simply a good bird choosing a tree to perch on.

But Chen Nanzhi just hated this kind of behavior—leaving Senior Brothers, friends, and family easily for a better cultivation environment.

"No."

Lin Sheng shook his head and said, "Others might yearn for the Immortal Spirit Continent immensely, but I am different. No matter how dense the spiritual energy or immortal energy is there, it won't attract me."

"You do seem to be like that..." Chen Nanzhi's face showed confusion.

Based solely on her sixth sense, the man in front of her seemed somewhat different from other cultivators.

But she couldn't articulate where the specific difference lay.

Buzz buzz—!

Suddenly, the communication talisman inside her robe pocket vibrated and flew out on its own, transforming into a light screen resembling a virtual projection in front of her.

Inside the light screen.

One could see Grand Elder Tianhai Longyue walking along a coastline somewhere—this was spirit image communication, a popular remote chat method in the current cultivation world.

"Little Nanzhi! Oh, the Holy Son is here too."

Tianhai Longyue on the other end was originally greeting Nanzhi with a grin.

Seeing Lin Sheng beside her, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she also greeted him, "Hello, Holy Son."

"Hello, Grand Elder."

"Little Nanzhi, do you know what I saw today?! Telling you will definitely make your jaw drop!"

"What?" Chen Nanzhi smiled and asked very cooperatively.

"I saw..."

The easygoing Tianhai Longyue shared with her what happened today within Heavenly Evolution Holy Land.
