Chapter 1895 Tian Yang’s Existence

Published Apr 3, 2026, 02:00 PM

Chapter 1895 Tian Yang's Existence After a day of rest, Yuan entered the Inner Court with Elder Sun's medallion to look for a new house. Of course, he already had one in mind. Once he found a servant to assist him, Yuan went straight to Tian Yang's living quarters and asked about its availability. The servant retrieved a jade slip and took a moment to look through its content before responding, "Sorry, but this place is already taken by another disciple." Yuan narrowed his eyes upon hearing this and asked, "Is this disciple's name Tian Yang?" "Yes, that is correct." 'So Tian Yang actually exists in this world… but does he physically exist?' Yuan wondered inwardly. From the beginning, he had believed that Tian Yang was merely a fabrication of memories, a figure that only persisted in Elder Sun and the others' recollections—not a real, living person. His reasoning had been simple: the Heaven Refining Crystal's existence. Tian Yang, according to history, should have been the one to acquire it long before Yuan's arrival at the Immortal Monastery. Yet, it was still in the Confinement Chamber, allowing Yuan to claim it instead. That contradiction alone had led him to believe that Tian Yang was nothing more than an illusion, an existence that didn't physically exist. Sometime later, Yuan picked a random available building as his new living quarters. After acquiring the keys to his new home, Yuan went to find Elder Sun at her peak—the 21st peak, known as the Immortal Sun Peak. Moreover, the Immortal Sun Peak hovered above the ground like a flying island. "Hm? You're here already? Are you that eager to start your training?" Elder Sun said after seeing him. Yuan silently nodded with an eager smile on his face. "Follow me." Once they arrived at the training grounds, Elder Sun spoke, "Before we begin, I must be completely honest with you. As embarrassing as it sounds, especially after I spoke so highly of my qualifications, you're my first disciple, so I don't really know what to teach you." "Of course, it's not like I don't know how to teach you. I just don't know what to teach you. That said, seeing how fast your cultivation is progressing, I probably don't have to teach you about cultivation." "What techniques have you learned, and do you have any techniques you want to learn or have difficulty understanding?" Yuan pondered for a moment before responding, "I know a little about the Peerless Immortal Technique and a few of the sect's sword techniques. As for what I want to learn… I don't know." "I see… In that case, show me how far you've progressed with the Peerless Immortal Technique, as well as the other techniques." Yuan nodded and began demonstrating 'all' of the techniques he knew. Elder Sun was left speechless by the end. "G-Give me a moment to think…" Elder Sun said before falling silent. 'This little monster has already mastered the second level of the Peerless Immortal Technique?! He'd only joined the sect recently!' she cried inwardly, trying to fathom how someone who'd just joined the sect could reach such a high level of understanding for one of their most difficult techniques. 'It took me almost ten years to reach that level, and I was considered one of the most talented individuals in my family!' 'As for his other techniques… while they're not as impressive as his Peerless Immortal Technique, being just slightly above average, if we consider how he probably spent most of his time studying the Peerless Immortal Technique, it's unfathomable how he got the time to learn other techniques!' After pondering for many minutes, Elder Sun decided to focus on the other techniques Yuan was cultivating to balance out his foundations. "Although we won't be focusing on the Peerless Immortal Technique, you can still ask me questions about it. The same goes for your cultivation. If you have any trouble, tell me about it." "Yes, Elder Sun!" Yuan nodded with a smile. Yuan had purposefully lowered his skills during the demonstration because he was afraid that Elder Sun might quit being his master if she thought there was nothing she could teach him. Although he still intended to complete the trial, Yuan wanted to use this opportunity to spend as much time as he could with Elder Sun, something Tian Yang could only dream about. Thus, Yuan began his life in the Inner Court. In the blink of an eye, another year passed. During this time, besides going to Elder Sun for lectures three days a week, Yuan would spend most of his time hunting magical beasts in the Hunting Grounds, completely ignoring the training areas available within the Inner Court. These training grounds assisted the disciples in their understanding of certain techniques and cultivation, but they were useless to Yuan, who had already reached the pinnacle understanding of most techniques in the sect. As for improving his cultivation, it was simply more effective to hunt magical beasts and consume their monster cores. With the points he'd saved from selling the beasts' materials, Yuan earned enough points to purchase a few more treasures from the point store, further improving his talent and cultivation. Meanwhile, many of the participants in the trial gave up on trying to become first and started focusing on the Immortal Monastery's techniques after realizing they had no chance to catch up to those who had managed to purchase a treasure before they were sold out. Since they knew they wouldn't be able to inherit everything, they decided to memorize and acquire as many techniques from the Immortal Monastery as possible to bring back to their original world. However, many participants still continued to aim for first place. Ji Ran became the second individual to become an Inner Court disciple, entering the Inner Court four months after Yuan. Xi Meili and the others were still Outer Court disciples, but they only lacked a contribution point or two required to take the examination. "It's been a year since you've become an Inner Court disciple, Xiao Yang. Are you still being mistaken for Tian Yang these days?" Elder Sun suddenly asked. Yuan shook his head and said, "Ever since I shortened my hair, they stopped messing with me." Elder Sun looked at Yuan with his short hair and smiled, "Are you sure it's not because you're beating all of them up even at the slightest provocation? You're even more outrageous than Tian Yang in this aspect."
