Chapter 317: Zhao Gongming's Breakthrough Opportunity

Gu Xiu's breakthrough was smooth and steady, making him the number one third-generation disciple of the Jie Sect.

Even most second-generation disciples were not as strong as Gu Xiu.

At the same time, Gu Xiu had done so many things for the Jie Sect recently, teaching Master Yuding and Daoxing Tianzun a lesson, which could be said to have stolen the limelight.

Therefore, he became a figure envied and discussed daily among the Jie Sect disciples.

Zhao Gongming could hear Gu Xiu's deeds everywhere on Jinao Island.

Thinking that he had practiced all his life and achieved nothing, and had been troubled by the bottleneck of the peak of the Da Luo Golden Immortal all these years.

Sure enough, comparing people to people will make you angry to death.

Learning of Zhao Gongming's current trouble, Gu Xiu laughed.

"Uncle-Master, please don't say that. Your accumulation is incomparably deep. Breaking through to the Quasi-Saint realm is just a matter of time. Moreover, how can my meager achievements be compared with yours, Uncle-Master?"

Zhao Gongming waved his hand: "Nephew-Disciple, no need to comfort me. The path of cultivation is full of bumps. I, Uncle-Master, can see it clearly. You, Nephew-Disciple, have extraordinary foundation and talent, and you will definitely be able to go further on the Dao path in the future. By then, I, Uncle-Master, will also have face."

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit on the side smiled beautifully: "Junior Brother, it seems Uncle-Master Gongming also thinks highly of you. If you can reach the peak in the future, I, Senior Sister, will also be able to bask in your glory."

Gu Xiu smiled: "Senior Sister, you are joking. The Dao has no end. I, Junior Brother, am still far behind. During this period, it is I, Junior Brother, who should rely on you, Senior Sister."

The three chatted very happily, and then Zhao Gongming bid farewell.

"Nephew-Disciple Gu Xiu, Nephew-Disciple Fire Spirit, it's rare for me to return to Jinao Island. I have been looking for Jie Sect fellow disciples to discuss the Dao these days. Now I am going to visit some second-generation disciples, so I won't disturb your continued play."

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit nodded slightly.

"Then we won't delay your time, Uncle-Master. I hope you can gain something in the discussion of the Dao with the Jie Sect fellow disciples and find the opportunity for a breakthrough."

Hearing this, Zhao Gongming sighed, a look of helplessness and melancholy appearing on his face.

He had discussed the Dao with many fellow disciples over the years, but he hadn't found any opportunity for a breakthrough at all. He didn't believe he could gain anything this time.

Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly: "Alas, Nephew-Disciple Fire Spirit, you have a heart, but after all these years, I have long since stopped holding much hope. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain anything this time."

Just as he was about to leave, Gu Xiu called him to stop.

"Uncle-Master, perhaps I know where your breakthrough opportunity lies."

Hearing this, Zhao Gongming paused, turned around slowly, looked at Gu Xiu, and asked eagerly: "Nephew-Disciple Gu Xiu, are you serious? Do you know where my breakthrough opportunity lies?"

Gu Xiu nodded: "Uncle-Master, I have no need to joke with you about such things."

Thinking of Gu Xiu's cultivation improvement, which was advancing by leaps and bounds, it could simply be described as incredible.

Zhao Gongming didn't have too much doubt, walked to Gu Xiu in two or three steps, and said eagerly: "Nephew-Disciple, tell me in detail. If I can really break through, I will definitely not forget your kindness today, Nephew-Disciple."

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit on the side was also full of curiosity.

Facing Zhao Gongming's eagerness and the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit's gaze,

Gu Xiu's expression was indifferent, and he said unhurriedly.

"Uncle-Master, as everyone knows, after an individual reaches a bottleneck, they need to find an opportunity that fits their own cultivation path to break through the bottleneck."

"Everyone's breakthrough opportunity is different, whether it is a magic treasure, a secret realm, or a special experience."

Zhao Gongming frowned slightly and pondered for a moment: "Nephew-Disciple, I know all these things you said, so what is my breakthrough opportunity?"

Gu Xiu pondered for a moment and spoke slowly: "Uncle-Master, your breakthrough opportunity lies in the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls in your hand."

Daoist Randeng could evolve the Twenty-Four Heavens and become the Buddha of the Past, but in Zhao Gongming's hands, they could only be used to smash people. Gu Xiu thought it was time to teach Zhao Gongming how to correctly use the Twenty-Four Sea-Calming Pearls. ===== CHAPTER 318 =====
