On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

The assassin's body, which had fainted on the ground, shattered inch by inch. In the end, it dissipated into the world as though the assassin in black had never appeared! He was dead!

How dare you disturb my personal disciple's cultivation! You must be tired of living!

If Chen Tian knew that an elder of the Immortal Sword Sect had already recognized him as his personal disciple before they even met, his face would probably be covered in black lines!

"Dong, dong, dong." A series of knocks sounded on the door. Chen Tian, who had just finished cultivating, was just about to speak when a figure appeared before him in a flash.

Chen Tian was shocked. He couldn't catch this person's movements at all. The moment the middle-aged man appeared, he subconsciously stood in front of Su Bingxin and reached into his chest. There was a fragment of the ghost mask that the Ghost-faced Great Empress' brother once wore!

"Wait, don't panic! I mean no harm."

The old man-sized up Chen Tian. The more he looked at him, the more pleasing he found him to the eye, especially the way he had subconsciously blocked Su Bingxin.

"I'm Xu Zhiyuan. Young friend, are you willing to join my Immortal Sword Sect?"

Xu Zhiyuan was sizing up Chen Tian, and Chen Tian was sizing up Xu Zhiyuan as well.

"This man is strong!" Chen Tian, though, Chen Tian couldn't sense anything about his cultivation level. Chen Tian felt a chill run down his spine as he realized that he was a strong opponent. He took a step back and prepared for any sudden movement.

The man looked to be around 35 or 36 years old. He had a head of white hair, and his white robes and long sleeves made him look like he was floating in the air. There was a purple-gold wine pot hanging from his waist, and there was a faint glow circulating around it.

It was obvious that he was no ordinary person. At this moment, the smell of alcohol on his body had already disappeared. After all, this was the first time they had met, and he had to leave a good impression on these two people who were about to become his personal disciples.

"So it's a senior from the Immortal Sword Sect. I didn't know Senior had arrived, so I failed to welcome you from afar. Please forgive me." Chen Tian took a step forward and raised his hands to pay respects.

His words were flawless, but they were also a bunch of nonsense. He had already entered the room without permission, so there was no need to talk about welcoming him. This was just a formality, but his true goal was to hide Su Bingxin perfectly behind him.

Although Xu Zhiyuan did not show any malice and even invited him to join the Immortal Sword Sect.

He was poised, calm, intelligent, and wise.

Xu Zhiyuan was even happier. He smiled faintly and said, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Previously, I sensed a sinister and vicious aura outside the courtyard, but now I can't sense it. Senior must have taken action," laughed Chen Tian.

"I can't believe his spirit sense is so powerful as well." Xu Zhiyuan was rather shocked.

That assassin's cultivation level was not bad; he should have been at the Qi Refinement tenth stage!

Especially because the assassin was good at concealment, he was actually able to detect an expert who was proficient in concealment and nine ranks higher than him! He even protected his Dao companion at the first moment.

If there was really a conflict, the chances of that girl surviving were higher.

Talent, temperament, wisdom, reaction, and spirit sense were all superior-grade!

Only such an outstanding person has the qualifications to be my disciple! I must take these two as my personal disciples, I must!

"Senior, you flatter me."

Chen Tian had a smile on his face. He was neither arrogant nor impetuous. He looked casual, but he was secretly gathering strength and concentrating.

The self-proclaimed middle-aged Immortal Sword Sect Elder before him looked cultured and harmless, but his body would emit terrifying fluctuations from time to time. Although the fluctuations were barely noticeable, they were enough to make Chen Tian's heart palpitate.

Secretly establishing a connection with the ghost mask fragment in his ring, once this person in front of him made the slightest abnormal move, he would immediately activate it.

"Don't be so nervous. I just wanted to ask how you feel about my Immortal Sword Sect."

"Immortal Sword Sect, the behemoth of the Qinghe Continent, one of the three behemoths of the Qinghe Continent. It is famous and has cultivated countless experts. It is a sacred cultivation ground in the hearts of countless cultivators."

"I once yearned to join it too."

What a great lie ran through Chen Tian's mind as he stood in front of the Immortal Sword Sect Elder.

In truth, he had never even heard of the sect until a few days ago, when Su Bingxin explained this world and its various sects to him. However, he didn't want to reveal his lie, and so he tried to appear calm and composed as he replied,

When he heard Chen Tian's evaluation of the Immortal Sword Sect, he only smiled and nodded slowly. In his heart, he thought,

"My Immortal Sword Sect is a supreme sect that has nurtured countless peerless powerhouses. I'll definitely make this guy my personal disciple today. After all, this kid once yearned to join my sect… Wait a minute, something doesn't seem right?"

"Once? Kid, what do you mean?" Xu Zhiyuan widened his eyes and questioned.

"Do you not understand what I mean?"

"Of course I understand. Senior is inviting me to join the Immortal Sword Sect, but I don't want to go." Chen Tian smiled.

Initially, he had thought that Chen Tian would praise the Immortal Sword Sect after bringing up the name of the Immortal Sword Sect. After that, he would invite Chen Tian to join him once more.

After that, Chen Tian would go wild with joy. His personal disciple would be guaranteed.

Unexpectedly, Chen Tian followed his own script in the first half, but in the end, it exceeded Xu Zhiyuan's expectations.

Immortal Sword Sect! Qinghe Continent's top sect!

Every year, countless noble families would send their disciples to the Secondary Immortal Sect with all sorts of precious gifts and connections. It all depended on whether the Immortal Sword Sect was willing or not!

But today, he was the top combatant of the Immortal Sword Sect! His position in the Immortal Sword Sect was second only to the Sect Master! He took the initiative to invite and recruit disciples, but was rejected?

"Many thanks for Senior's kindness. It's just that I'm used to being undisciplined and don't like the feeling of being restrained." Chen Tian's attitude was respectful, as he tactfully refused.

If this matter were to spread out, where would I put my face? Besides, this is a peerless cultivation talent! No, no, no matter what, I will definitely take this disciple!

As Chen Tian rejected Xu Zhiyuan's offer, Xu Zhiyuan, felt a sense of frustration wash over him. He had never been rejected before, especially not by a cultivator of such high potential.

But Xu Zhiyuan was not one to give up easily. He knew that Chen Tian had a rare talent, and he was determined to make him a member of the Immortal Sword Sect, no matter what it took.

"Kid, I think you're making a mistake," Xu Zhiyuan said, his tone was stern. "The Immortal Sword Sect is the greatest cultivation sect in all the Qinghe Continent. You could achieve greatness there, and be respected by all."

Chen Tian sighed. He knew that Xu Zhiyuan was only trying to help, but he couldn't shake the feeling that joining a sect as an elder discipline would be too restrictive for him. "I appreciate your concern, Elder Xu, but I have my own path to follow. I can't let myself be tied down by the rules and regulations of a sect."

Xu Zhiyuan studied Chen Tian for a moment, his eyes narrowing. "You're a stubborn one, aren't you? But I can see that you have a strong spirit and fierce determination. I respect that. But I still think that you would benefit from joining the Immortal Sword Sect."

Chen Tian shook his head. "I'm sorry, Elder Xu, but my mind is made up. I have to follow my own path, even if it's a difficult one."
