Chapter 952: Becoming a Disciple of the Supreme? (Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Lin Qi voiced the doubts he had accumulated over the past dozen years.

Although only a dozen years had passed, his understanding of spatial laws had improved dramatically.

He had many accumulated questions.

This was the perfect opportunity to ask them.

His teacher, Lei Zun, spoke to answer them.

Though he had not fully mastered spatial laws, guiding Lin Qi’s cultivation posed no problem.

During the exchange, Third Senior Sister Zhong He also joined in.

Her understanding of spatial laws was only slightly higher than Lin Qi’s, and she too was in the process of comprehending the essence of tearing.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Throughout the garden, invisible spatial ripples spread outward like concentric waves.

At the same time, countless spatial secret patterns emerged.

“Hummm!!”

Lei Zun waved his hand, and all the spatial secret patterns vanished; he looked at Lin Qi and Zhong He.

Through his guidance, he could clearly sense the gap in their innate talent.

It wasn’t just a slight difference—it was a vast one.

This filled him with awe.

The legendary genius, indeed, was extraordinary.

He then said:

“Now that both of you have no more questions, this guidance session is over.”

“Feel free to ask me again if you have questions next time.”

“Or you may attend other teachers’ public lessons.”

Lin Qi stood up and bowed in thanks:

“Thank you, Master, for your guidance.”

He felt he now had a fresh understanding of spatial laws.

With his doubts cleared, his comprehension of spatial laws would accelerate further.

This was the advantage of having a teacher.

It saved him from countless detours and greatly aided his understanding of laws and his future cultivation path.

Lei Zun took a sip of hot tea, then suddenly said:

“I just remembered something.”

“It concerns you, Lin Qi.”

“In our Tai Chu Sacred Land, or among the human race, there is no prohibition against taking multiple masters.”

“To enhance your strength, you may take several masters at once.”

“But usually not from the same realm.”

“For example, since you’ve taken me as your master, you need not seek another master from the Cosmic Fifth Realm.”

“But it’s different with Cosmic Sixth Realm beings.”

“Though you were once a top-tier genius, you didn’t attract enough attention from Cosmic Sixth Realm entities.”

“But now that you’re a legendary genius, it’s entirely different.”

“Your rank in the Origin Tower has now reached 88th.”

“Many Cosmic Sixth Realm beings will want to take you as their disciple.”

“The Sovereigns have fully mastered spatial laws and have cultivated for infinite eons; they possess abundant experience and can guide you without issue.”

“Far superior to me, a Cosmic Fifth Realm being.”

“Our human race encourages taking multiple masters, especially from the strong, to rapidly increase strength.”

“This rule was established long before our race rose to prominence—all for the sake of enhancing strength.”

“Taking a Cosmic Sixth Realm master is perfectly acceptable.”

“I myself followed this path.”

Then Lei Zun fell into memory:

“Once merely an ordinary Star Domain genius, my master was the Invincible Demon Thunder Emperor.”

“Later, after my talent transformed, I took Xuan Cang Sovereign as my master!”

“Unfortunately, after I broke through to the Cosmic Fifth Realm, Xuan Cang Sovereign chose to wander the cosmos.”

“I occasionally see him in the Tai Chu World.”

“His strength is among the strongest in our race; if he guided you, your cultivation speed might even accelerate further.”

Lin Qi’s expression turned astonished—he had never known this connection existed.

His teacher, Lei Zun, had such a background—once a disciple of a powerful Sovereign.

But unfortunately, he had wandered into the cosmos.

Then Lei Zun set down his teacup and slowly stood up.

As he walked through the garden, he said:

“Lin Qi, for a long time ahead, many Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereigns will seek to take you as their disciple.”

“Among them are some powerful ones who have left legends behind.”

“But my advice is: don’t rush.”

“Don’t hurry to take them as your master.”

“Wait a while longer.”

Lin Qi asked curiously:

“Wait for what?”

“Will even stronger beings intervene?”

Lei Zun said seriously: “You’re right—it’s waiting for someone even stronger.”

“The Supreme Beings!”

“Our human race has Nine Supreme Powers, but there are more than nine Supreme Beings.”

“Our Tai Chu Sacred Land alone has three. The founder has long stopped taking disciples, unless one possesses astonishing talent.”

“Another, like my master Xuan Cang Sovereign, wandered into the cosmos a million years ago to explore deeper mysteries.”

“He no longer accepts disciples—only if you possess astonishing talent might you rouse his attention.”

“But the third is different: every legendary genius has a chance to become his disciple.”

“Provided they pass his trial.”

Lin Qi’s eyes lit up, his heart pounding rapidly.

The Supreme Beings of our race weren’t just nine?

He had always believed there were only nine.

He hadn’t imagined there were even more—but what mattered most wasn’t that.

It was that Supreme Beings took disciples?

Supreme Beings—the strongest tier of human geniuses, the most elite beings in the entire cosmos.

They were nearly omnipotent.

Cosmic Fifth Realm beings were already immensely powerful, the backbone of our race.

Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereigns were the high leadership, managing all human affairs.

But the strongest were the Supreme Beings—they alone possessed supreme power and authority.

Choosing between a Sovereign master and a Supreme Being master required no decision.

Of course, one chose the stronger.

Unfortunately, the other two Supreme Beings no longer took disciples—so there was only one choice.

He would absolutely become a disciple of a Supreme Being.

He had confidence in his own talent.

Even if his talent wasn’t sufficient now, it would be in the future.

His current talent was already among the stronger within legendary geniuses.

At his side, Zhong He and Huo Dun both wore expressions of envy.

But they could only envy.

Their talent was too low—even Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereigns didn’t notice them.

How much less likely were Supreme Beings to take notice?

Lin Qi deserved this opportunity.

Lin Qi’s mind raced, flooding with countless thoughts.

Soon he spoke:

“So, Master, what I should do now is just wait?”

Lei Zun nodded:

“Correct. Don’t rush to decide.”

“Wait for the Supreme Being’s disciple to come to you.”

"But no one can be certain during this period."

"Don't rush; focus on your cultivation."

"Make your combat strength even stronger."

Lin Qi nodded slowly after hearing this, sipped his hot tea, and said:

"I understand."

"..."

After a moment, Lin Qi took his leave.

Only Lei Zun and the other two remained in the garden.

Zhong He, with his short hair, spoke up:

"Will Young Master succeed in passing the Supreme Being’s trial?"

"After all, even a legendary genius must surely become a disciple of the Supreme Being."

"Especially since our Grand Primordial Sacred Ground has even higher standards."

"After all, this one’s requirements are far higher than the other’s."

"The other one went wandering; in the past million years, only one has successfully become a disciple—Yan Zun."

"All other legendary geniuses failed and could only become disciples of other Cosmic Six Realms beings."

"In other Supreme factions, they might have already succeeded in becoming disciples."

Hu Dun, with his massive frame, crossed his arms and said:

"With Young Master’s talent, there’s absolutely no problem."

"He’s simply incredible."

Lei Zun, clad in a purple robe, also nodded:

"Though I have faith in Lin Qi, we must not be careless."

"We will offer him assistance during the trial."
