No one can understand Guo Zheng's ecstasy.
In terms of Martial Tao, he is a failure...
His two close friends, Li Lei has successfully joined the Sun and Moon Bright Sect and has even replaced Tomorrow to become the new Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Bright Sect, with a position of authority in the Immortal Martial Alliance and veto power with a single word.
His strength has progressed by leaps and bounds.
He is now one of the most powerful figures on Blue Star.
Xu Lingjun, needless to say, has made all of Blue Star his backyard.
But as one of the Three Heroes of Qingzhou back in the day, Guo Zheng entered Central City Martial Mansion thanks to the influence of his uncle.
Compared to them, he is just a failure.
Later, he followed Wang Tiancheng and learned business for a while, though he hardly learned a thing, as the brisk business practices were simply beyond him.
But after some effort, he managed to become the Vice Ambassador of Blue Star in the Communication Star for business exchanges, serving as Wang Tiancheng's assistant, doing the job in quite a manner... No one knows the effort behind this seemingly impressive achievement.
All he wants is that, years later, when he sees Xu Lingjun or Li Lei, he doesn't need to nod and bow, but instead can stand tall, call Old Xu or Leizi, or even call himself Dad.
From a top student at Central City Martial Mansion, to completely abandoning Martial Tao, giving up martial arts for business.
No one knows the mental struggle he went through.
Therefore, when he discovered he had a talent for cultivation, and possibly a high talent, he immediately gave up everything he had, found Xu Lingjun, and decided to join this department even if he had to go through the back door.
Getting Xu Lingjun's approval, and even seeing his shocked expression.
Guo Zheng's long-lost pride returned, his mood greatly improved, and he insisted on dragging Xu Lingjun to find Li Lei.
Riding a special craft, the speed was extremely fast.
Finally, the three sang overnight at the KTV, as this was the only way to express his excitement.
And the next day.
Even without sleep for a day, he was still energetic, carrying a suitcase to once again study at the Immortal Martial College, claiming to surpass Li Lei in three years, and catch up to Xu Lingjun in five. Guo Zheng's path to revenge had just begun.
And joining him at the Immortal Martial College were the newly selected cultivation department students.
Though this field had just started to boom, it thrived because Xu Lingjun himself promoted it...
Xu Lingjun stayed at the Central Palace, ready to deal with any issues that might arise.
Until three months later.
After confirming the students' learning had entered a proper track, since cultivation and cultivation although diverge in ways, ultimately have the same foundation, only one emphasizes attack while the other focuses on support, this constituted the differentiation.
Moreover, now Star City's Spiritual Qi is much more...
Thus.
Xu Lingjun finally felt relieved, once again displaying his hands-off management style and handed all affairs over to Han Yun City.
And he planned to go into seclusion.
In fact, after a fierce battle with Sword Wind, absorbing six to seven tenths of the demonic power and True Essence within, Xu Lingjun already possessed the foundation to surpass the Divine Soul Realm.
Yet he didn't choose to break through but previously suppressed all this cultivation to handle various trivial matters.
Not for anything else...
Just because at the moment he was about to break through to the Divine Soul Realm, a deep sense of instinctual unease or a warning from the depths of the Divine Soul suddenly surged in him.
Don't breakthrough.
Or regret would follow.
He didn't know where this sense of warning originated, but Xu Lingjun understood that at a certain Realm of strength, there was some connection with heaven and earth, often a dream, an epiphany, or even an inexplicable sudden thought very likely had a source.
So Xu Lingjun didn't immediately break through.
Instead, he stayed behind, arranged everything well, even fully utilized the benefits gained from conquering the Spirit Realm, as well as all the Spiritual Qi from the Demon clan.
After pushing Blue Star into a rapid development phase, he chose to go into seclusion.
And indeed...
After completing all this and then choosing seclusion, the unease almost resembling a warning in his heart disappeared.
Which means my previous actions, one of them likely dispelled this restless feeling... but Xu Lingjun himself couldn't clarify what exactly the feeling was.
And with no final worries left.
Xu Lingjun could finally relax and seriously think about his own cultivation.
As the strongest on Blue Star now, even arguably the strongest in the entire Milky Way Galaxy.
Xu Lingjun knew his existence now could be considered the stabilizing force for Blue Star, as long as he stood, no civilization would dare target Blue Star.
Thus further enhancing his strength became essential.
This time for seclusion...
The duration probably wouldn't be short, since although knowing the follow-up of Divine Soul would be Mahayana, like Divine Soul is the integration of one's Spiritual Sense and Heart and Spirit as one, he completely doesn't know the Realm of Mahayana.
He's not breaking through but creating a brand new Realm.
The difficulty naturally cannot be easily understood.
Luckily Xu Lingjun has full confidence, and moreover, Li Pingting successfully gave birth to a daughter two months ago.
This added another member to Xu Lingjun family.
Since the birth took place, he naturally doesn't need to exert much extra effort.
