Unconsciously, Lu Yuansheng took a step back, watching the Evil Qi rising from Ning Daohuan's face.
Soon after, he discreetly glanced towards the teleportation array beneath the statue.
Ning Daohuan still seemed to be immersed in the pleasure of his confession, his eyes gradually lighting up:
"Regrettably, it's truly too difficult to achieve Immortal Ascension. One must have the opportunity of enlightenment, and yet these chances are almost always held by the major sects. I had thought that I would only reach the Nascent Soul in this lifetime, but unexpectedly, I discovered Fanming's primordial spirit teeming with enlightenment in Chen State... With it, I can ascend to Immortal as long as I reach the peak of Nascent Soul and refine it!"
"And before that, I must reach the peak state of the Nascent Soul..."
"The disciple will assist the Sect Hierarch in achieving this undertaking!"
Lu Yuansheng hesitated for a moment, then respectfully pledged.
