Lu Sheng’s request did not take long to receive a response. Soon, a figure was projected from his watch.
It was a young man dressed in a white training outfit, with a gentle smile that felt like a breath of spring.
He looked just like the boy next door.
If one didn’t know his identity, it would be hard to see the shadow of a sixth-level strongman in him.
"Second Senior Brother!"
Lu Sheng respectfully bowed to the man.
At the Life Factions, all students called each other senior or junior fellow students.
Only the three newly ascended sixth-level senior fellows were addressed as Senior Brother.
"Lu Sheng? I have heard of you from the mouth of our teacher!"
The Second Senior Brother sat cross-legged and smiled gently at Lu Sheng.
This single sentence surprised Lu Sheng quite a bit.
"Second Senior Brother has heard my name from Mentor Gumo?"
To know that Gumo, as a seventh-level strongman, has countless students in the Life Factions; a student whose name could be spoken by Gumo must be extraordinary.
Lu Sheng never expected his name to be mentioned by Gumo.
The Second Senior Brother smiled slightly: "In this year’s college entrance exams, the teacher specifically recruited seventeen martial artists who had mastered the True Martial Body, and you were one of them. Besides, I also know you come from Tianqi Star, which is just a minor asteroid; therefore, there are many things you don’t understand. However, it doesn’t matter, I can clear your doubts today."
"You can tell me about your current mastery of martial arts techniques, and I can give you some advice!"
Hearing Second Senior Brother’s words, Lu Sheng suddenly realized something, then he shared his situation with Second Senior Brother.
"Already mastering a Planet Level cultivation technique? The teacher wasn’t wrong, your talent is indeed remarkable."
The Second Senior Brother smiled lightly, then pondered for a while before speaking slowly.
"Based on your situation, I can currently offer three suggestions!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up.
Suggestions from a sixth-level Transcendent would naturally suit him perfectly.
"The first suggestion is, since you have already begun with the Immortal Technique, use it as your foundation and simultaneously cultivate the Life and Death Technique and the Undying Technique. These three techniques complement each other, and in the future, they can advance to stellar-level knowledge."
"By cultivating these three compatible techniques together, your cultivation speed will increase, thereby paving your martial path. Under favorable conditions, you could reach the sixth level within three hundred years!"
The Second Senior Brother spoke with a slight smile.
Reaching the sixth level within three hundred years!
If this news spread, even within the Life Factions, it would cause quite a stir. After all, among over ten million students in the Life Factions, very few can become sixth-level Transcendents.
Let alone achieving such within three hundred years.
Even though Lu Sheng was tempted hearing these words, he maintained his patience and waited for the Second Senior Brother’s next suggestion.
Seeing Lu Sheng’s eager yet silent demeanor, a trace of admiration flashed in the Second Senior Brother’s eyes.
He continued, "The second suggestion is to focus on your current Great Five Elements Fist and learn the Planet Level martial art that follows it, the Five Elements Star Suppressing Fist. Concurrently, you should study two Planet Level martial arts compatible with the Five Elements Star Suppressing Fist. By following this path, you can achieve the sixth level within two hundred years!"
"However, this path, although faster, requires a deeper understanding of the Power of the Five Elements, demanding more innate talent from the martial artist compared to the previous path."
"The two hundred years I mention are based on the assumption that in these two hundred years, you will further your understanding of the Power of the Five Elements."
Lu Sheng took a deep breath, his eyes reflecting a hint of fervent desire.
Achieving the sixth level within two hundred years!
That’s a hundred years faster than the first path!
Knowing that the faster a martial artist breaks through, the greater their future potential, providing a chance to reach higher realms.
If reaching the sixth level within two hundred years, one would essentially qualify to strive for the seventh level.
How incredible this was!
Lu Sheng took another deep breath; he felt even more restless inside, but he ultimately suppressed his impatient heart and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
"May I ask, Second Senior Brother, what is the third suggestion?"
The Second Senior Brother smiled faintly, his eyes sparkled slightly.
"The third suggestion combines the first two. If you follow this path, you can achieve the sixth level in a little over a hundred years, assuming smooth progress!"
"Of course, this path is only for those with exceptional talent. Ordinary martial artists find it extremely challenging to cultivate even one Planet Level knowledge. Even among students admitted to Star River University, very few can pursue the first two paths, let alone the third..."
The Second Senior Brother’s words reached Lu Sheng’s ears, stirring waves of excitement in his heart.
Achieving the sixth level in just a little over a hundred years?
Lu Sheng fell into deep contemplation.
Seeing this, the Second Senior Brother smiled and said, "Of course, don’t be enticed merely by the timeline. Since you have already begun with the Immortal Technique, you can first try the first path. If your progress is rapid, then try the third path combined. This way, you won’t waste any time."
Lu Sheng slowly raised his head, his expression calm once more.
He bowed slightly to the Second Senior Brother.
"Thank you, Second Senior Brother, for clearing my doubts. My perspective has indeed broadened."
The Second Senior Brother smiled slightly without saying much. After giving Lu Sheng some additional advice and reminders, he disconnected the link.
"Second Senior Brother’s three suggestions were worth the ten credits spent!"
Lu Sheng sighed, then sat cross-legged on his bed, deep in thought.
"Just as Second Senior Brother said, I can first try the first path and then later the third, combining them for cultivation."
With this thought, Lu Sheng opened the purchase list and used his previous free exchange privilege to redeem the Life and Death Technique.
The Life and Death Technique is also a stellar-level advancement of the Longevity Technique. However, back on Tianqi Star, only the Immortal Technique was available for Lu Sheng’s cultivation.
"The cultivation resource needed for the Life and Death Technique—the Life and Death Fruit, is produced within the Life Factions, and the academic credits required for redemption here are less than elsewhere, making it suitable for my current cultivation stage."
