Chapter 856

"Now tell Master, what has happened outside since this time."

Although Chen Fu felt gratified that Chen Jingchou could raise his cultivation to the late stage of the Mortal Realm of the Earthly Immortal in such a short time,

Chen Fu also knew very well in his heart that behind this huge improvement in Chen Jingchou's cultivation, Chen Jingchou must have suffered countless hardships.

Otherwise, Chen Fu would not believe that without any predicament pushing him, a person could have such a large improvement in cultivation in such a short time.

Chen Jingchou could naturally feel Chen Fu's feelings for him. After phrasing his words slightly for a while, Chen Jingchou began to talk about his encounters from the time he ascended the Heaven's Pride Ranking until now.

"Actually, I never thought that I could ascend the Nine Provinces Heaven's Pride Ranking."

"At first, when I ascended the Heaven's Pride Ranking, I was actually quite happy. After all, I felt I had promise, and so quickly made my name resound throughout the entire Nine Provinces."

"But after thinking about it carefully, I was in a difficult situation. After all, my cultivation at that time was indeed only at the Grandmaster Realm, and I was still within the territory of the Great Sui."

"If I didn't hide, maybe before I finished being happy, I would have been caught back by that dog Yang Guang."

"Subsequently, I hid in a cave in the mountains. After making the entrance of the cave well-hidden, I began to digest the Heavenly Dao reward given to me by the Golden List for ascending the Nine Provinces Heaven's Pride Ranking."

"And it was just as I expected. Not long after I hid in the mountains, the entire Great Sui boiled over, and countless lackeys of the Great Sui imperial court were searching for me all over the Great Sui territory."

"By the time I completely absorbed the Heavenly Dao reward, I was already at the Martial Dao cultivation of the Grandmaster Realm."

"Subsequently, I walked out of the cave, wanting to go outside to experience some slaughter of blood and fire. After all, Master also said that if one only cultivates blindly without practicing and fighting, one can absolutely never become a true strong individual."

"But after I went out, during that period, I was indeed on the edge of life and death every single minute and second."

Speaking of this, Chen Jingchou could not help but shiver. Because he did not want to experience that life of fleeing for his life at that time a second time; even just thinking about it, Chen Jingchou felt a lingering fear in his heart.

And Chen Fu, upon hearing Chen Jingchou speak to this point, could also feel Chen Jingchou's helplessness at that time. Chen Fu's heart was filled with bitterness at this moment.

After a pause, Chen Jingchou continued:

"However, although those days of fleeing and fighting were very dangerous, always hovering between life and death, they were of great benefit to my Martial Dao realm."

"During that time, I not only completely stabilized my Martial Dao cultivation at the Grandmaster Realm, but also slowly cultivated my Martial Dao cultivation to the peak and perfected state of the Grandmaster Realm amidst the slaughter."

"But even at the peak and perfected state of the Grandmaster Realm, when facing the boundless pursuit of the Great Sui imperial court, I often felt deep despair."

"But just when I was truly at the end of my rope, and even lost the hope of continuing to live in my heart, the dawn finally appeared."

"That was Yang Guang being usurped by Xiao Meiniang! Great Sui changed hands!"

"It was only after this matter that I slowly had a chance to breathe, and later, the people coming to hunt me down in the Great Sui became fewer and fewer."

"And later, it was my own travels through the Jianghu of the Great Sui, Great Tang, and Northern Song. Only after slowly raising my strength to the present did I have the face to return here to see Master."

Actually, Chen Jingchou omitted all the situations where he had a narrow escape from death. After all, for a small person who was only at the Grandmaster Realm back then, when facing the pursuit of an empire,

not being wiped out by the Great Sui was a miracle in itself! ===== CHAPTER 857 =====
