Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

"So you're saying, that Trinity Cleansing Fruit has more effect than boosting one's combat power?" pretending to be calm as he remain seated on the flat stone he got for himself a old man with a peculiar aura coming out from him asked as he continues to gaze on the calmly running water of the clear river, the immortal-like young man right beside him merely nodding to agree with his question.

"I found out that those fruits are also capable of cleaning the entire cultivation base of someone who properly consumed it, turning all the energy from their previous cultivation base to nourish and improve their new foundation" the immortal-like young man added after he answered, the fishing pole in his hand already tugging as if there's already a fish being caught in it.

"So that's why Xian'er seems to feel even more powerful despite her low cultivation…" another old man interjected, this one sitting right next to the peculiar old man.

"Even if it is just a one-time thing, it is still pretty absurd to increase the talent of someone exponentially…" another old man said, this one appearing to be a bit younger than the second one who speaks, staring closely at the water as well as he feels something about to bite on the bait.

"Then why don't you seem to take it boy?" looking at the cultivation base of the immortal-like young man still at the same realm, even going as far as increasing rather than restarting just like the ladies around him, the one from the opposite side of the immortal-like young man, an old man sitting at the other side of the group of people sitting near the river, asked, curiosity filling his eyes.

"My body… is quite special, elder Lingtian, hence why I don't take the fruit, it won't even have an effect on me if I do" the immortal-like young man explains, opting not to go on full detail regarding his talent not because he doesn't trust these old men, but rather because it will become too lengthy of an explanation should he start really explaining to them.

"Pity about that, if you can still improve your talent at this rate, then we will pretty much have a little monster in our midst, HAHAHA" after hearing the explanation, the peculiar old man said with a cheerful tone on his voice, prompting everyone to look at him.

"Lucius, the boy is already a monster as he is, there's really no need to take the Trinity Cleansing Fruit anymore" finally joining in on the conversation, another old man said, this old man appearing to bear the similar features as Hua Jingxian, like an older split copy of him, the only difference being this old man acting more seriously than the easy-going Hua Jingxian.

"Come on Xingtian, it's just a joke to lighten the mood… besides…" looking at Hua Xingtian who is currently trying to reel in a fish, the peculiar old man, Lucius, replied with a quite annoyed tone on his voice, pausing for a while as he looks at the immortal-like young man, his eyes glowing with a mystical light, said light landing on the immortal-like young man and making him feel like someone is trying to see through his entire being.

As the peculiar old man tries to read the fate of the immortal-like young man once again, he see nothing but a clear white space, or rather a clear black space, the color, form, as well as the state of the thing he is seeing being completely disoriented and changing that he couldn't help but feel nauseous, something that he didn't feel when he tries to peer into the young man's depth the first time.

'His fate changes again, and this time… he seems to become even more powerful…' looking at the immortal-like young man in a daze as he tries to make sense of the thing he saw, the peculiar old man thought to himself in wonder, marveling at how someone can just change their fate seemingly effortlessly.

"It seems that we will all need to rely on you in the future, young man" standing up from his seat and moving his old hand to pat the immortal-like young man's shoulder, the peculiar old man said with an anticipating look on his smiling face, giving him a stone before he swings his hand, a spatial tear appearing in front of him as he bids farewell to the other old men then stepping into the spatial tear that disappears within everyone's view after just a few seconds.

"That old senior…" finally finding a chance to ask about something that piqued his interest, the immortal-like young man breaks the silence as he speaks, one of the four old men remaining starting to explain what he wanted to hear.

"He's someone from the West Continent, to be precise, a Celestial-level being there, claiming to be the greatest seer to ever and will ever live in that continent" being the one most familiar with the peculiar old man who just left the scene, Hua Xingtian said in a brief introduction of his close friend, the identity of the peculiar old man piquing the interest of the immortal-like young man even more.

"You're curious about it aren't you boy? The West Continent" looking at the immortal-like young man's eyes, the eldest among the four, Hua Xuantian said, completely aware of what Su Xiaotian is currently thinking, the other old men looking at him as they also want to know his answer.

"I am indeed interested, elders, however, I haven't even explored my own continent, how am I supposed to explore other continents properly then?" saying what he really thinks, the immortal-like young man replied with a wry smile on his face, knowing that exploring even just the East Continent right now will be an extremely difficult task to him, especially when a lot of sect and forces are waiting for him outside.

"HAHAHA, that's a good way of thinking boy… exploring your own continent first, good!!!" nodding at his opinion, the youngest, Hua Lingtian said with approval to the young man's opinion, nodding at him before looking at the third eldest, Hua Yingtian, prompting the other old man to take out something from his sleeves.

Taking out a letter, Hua Yingtian didn't even look at it for a single bit before throwing it towards Su Xiaotian, the immortal-like young man wondering what the purpose of this letter is until the third oldest starts explaining its purpose to him.

"That's a special invitation for the Dao Enlightenment Competition in the Dao Seeking Mountain, that also serves as an entry spot good for six people" Hua Yingtian said, pausing as he saw their second brother clearly wanting to speak.

"Explore the world, boy, no need to worry about the forces waiting for the chance to attack you, I will take care of everything you can't deal with" Hua Xingtian said with a confident look on his face, causing the young man to feel even closer not only to Hua Jingxian's old man but also towards the other old men here as well, these people clearly treating him like one of their own family.
