When Lu Chen and Jin Yun arrived at Lingyun Palace, they saw Lin You Yuan playing chess with Ling Tian and couldn't help but think to themselves how much Lin You Yuan loved to play chess. Although Lu Chen wanted to unseal his cultivation earlier, he didn't dare to disturb Lin You Yuan and Ling Tian.

"General, Junior Master Lin has relented." Ling Tian said with a smile.

"Whatever, I'm used to losing every time I find you to play chess." Lin You Yuan said gloomily.

"Yes." Lu Chen said.

"Lu Chen, do you really think the current you can lift your cultivation?" Lin You Yuan asked.

"Master?" Lu Chen asked doubtfully.

"Can you really beat those two with your understanding and application of the power of the eighth level of the Refinement Stage?" Lin You Yuan asked.

"Disciple." Lu Chen was speechless. Indeed, it was just as Lin Youyuan had said, winning Luo You was because of his physical body, but his physical body was already at the middle Aurous Core stage, even if it was only a fraction of his strength, he would still definitely win. Kong Xiang was a martial art that he had borrowed the benefits from. The Flame Mantra that he practiced was a high-grade martial art! Although his strength was lacking, with the power of the Flame Mantra in front of him, it would be difficult for him to defeat it no matter how hard he tried.

"Disciple's victory is unfair." Lu Chen said after he could understand what was going on.

"Martial Uncle Lu, how could you not fight? You won them fair and square? " Jin Yun asked curiously.

"Jin Yun, you should think about whether Junior Martial Brother Lu is really competing in an open and honorable manner." Ling Tian said.

"That's right. Besides Martial Uncle Lu's physical body and spiritual sense, he is in the Aurous Core stage …" Jin Yun suddenly understood what Ling Tian meant.

"Disciple is willing to be punished." Lu Chen knelt in front of Lin You Yuan and said.

"Lu Chen, you're getting impatient." Lin You Yuan said without looking at Lu Chen.

"Yes, this disciple is getting impatient." Lu Chen admitted.

"Is it because of your family hatred?" Lin You Yuan asked.

"Master, what do you mean? I don't understand." Although Lu Chen's heart was in turmoil due to Lin You Yuan's words, he still maintained a calm expression on the surface.

Junior brother Lu, you don't need to hide the truth from me and Junior uncle Lin that we already know about your past. You are the third son of the Lu family, one of the three great cultivation families of the Lin Prefecture City. Ling Tian said.

"Did you send someone to investigate me?" Lu Chen said in displeasure.

"How can we not be careful when you join our Cloudsoaring sect, especially when you still have the Cloudsoaring sect's command medallion?" Ling Tian said.

"Master, you're right, I am impatient. Every time I think about what happened to my family, I think about the Grand Elder who was bitterly supporting them in the thatched cottage, and I think about how my brothers were being humiliated by the Wang family." Lu Chen said.

"Lu Chen, why did you cultivate?" Lin You Yuan suddenly asked.

"Revenge, revitalize the Lu family." Lu Chen said.

"Then after taking revenge and reviving the Lu Family, are you not going to continue cultivating?" Lin You Yuan asked.

"Disciple has never thought of me." Lu Chen said with a wry smile, " I didn't voluntarily start on this Immortal Cultivation Road to protect myself in the first place. Now that I have stepped foot on this Immortal Cultivation Road, I have to do this for the clan; I have never thought of anything else. " Lu Chen said.

"Whatever. I know that you've come here today to unseal your cultivation. Today, I can unseal your cultivation." Lin You Yuan said.

"Master, I am still not qualified." Lu Chen said.

"I already said that as long as you can defeat a cultivator at the 11th level of the Refinement Stage, you will be unsealed. You have indeed won and I will unseal you." After Lin You Yuan finished speaking, he placed his hand on Lu Chen's head and released a white light. After that, Lu Chen felt his cultivation increasing once again, and the little spiritual energy in his body was slowly becoming more abundant.

"I know you have doubts, I unsealed you for the next month's advanced stage competition, after all, the academy is not a suitable place to stay, my request this time is the same as last time, I want you to defeat a Qi Condensation cultivator at the eleventh level, but you can't use your physical strength and cultivation technique to only use the most basic foundation that you know." Lin You Yuan said.

"Disciple understands. Disciple will not be so impatient next time." Lu Chen said.

"Jin Yun, you may leave." Lin You Yuan said.

"Yes, disciple will take his leave." Although Jin Yun was puzzled as to why Lin You Yuan asked Lu Chen to stay, he knew he shouldn't have asked and left respectfully.

"Lu Chen, do you know why I asked you to stay behind?" Lin You Yuan asked.

"Is it because of disciple's spiritual roots and cultivation?" Lu Chen said. When he found out that Lin Youyuan and the others already knew of his identity, he knew that the Forest of Death could no longer be hidden.

"No, we are not interested in how your Spirit Root has changed and how your cultivation rose." Lin You Yuan said.

"Then Master, why did you let me stay?" Lu Chen asked in confusion. Although he was relieved that Lin You Yuan said that he was not interested in his spiritual roots and cultivation, he was even more curious about the reason why Lin You Yuan asked him to stay.

"You still don't understand." Ling Tian said.

"Don't understand what?" Lu Chen asked.

"What is the most important thing for junior brother Lu to cultivate?" Ling Tian asked.

"Spiritual Roots." Lu Chen said.

"That's not right." Ling Tian shook his head.

"Could that be a cultivation resource?" Lu Chen asked.

"Still not right. The most important thing in training is to have a mind of one's own." Ling Tian said.

"Autonomous heart?" Lu Chen asked doubtfully.

"What your head senior brother said is right. Without that independent heart of yours, even the best spiritual roots would be wasted. If you have that independent heart, then even the worst spiritual roots would be able to reach unrivalled heights." Lin You Yuan said.

"Disciple's training is voluntary." Lu Chen said.

"No, just like you said earlier, you started your training to protect yourself. Although you are actively cultivating right now, once you have enough power to protect yourself and take revenge, you will lose the motivation to progress. No matter how talented you are, I dare to say that you can only stay at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Stage and not progress any further." Lin You Yuan said.

"Disciple doesn't understand." Lu Chen said.

"Forget it, tonight, you will stay in this Lingyun Palace and properly think about why you want to cultivate. I'll ask you tomorrow morning." Lin You Yuan said and left.

"Junior brother Lu, Junior master Lin is also thinking for your future." Ling Tian said.

"Head senior brother, I understand." Lu Chen said with a smile.

"You can stay here tonight." Ling Tian then left as well.
