Fifteen minutes later, in the hall of the central divine tower, Yi Yun met Elders Jian Ge and Cang Yan.
Once Yi Yun entered, Cang Yan looked at Yi Yun as if he was a monster. On the other hand, Jian Ge began to size up Yi Yun from top to bottom.
“Kid, you actually managed to master the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’ in two months?” Cang Yan still found it incredible at this moment.
“Uh…” Yi Yun did not know how to answer. Did he have to tell Cang Yan that he actually only used 12-13 days to master it?
Yi Yun’s lack of an answer made Cang Yan think he had made a silent affirmation.
“That’s amazing! Way back then, Old man Jian used 4 months to master the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’. You used half of the time Old man Jian used.”
As Cang Yan praised Yi Yun, he also revealed Jian Ge’s shortcomings.
Jian Ge had initially wanted to say something else, but when he heard Cang Yan’s words, he became a bit embarrassed. With a cough, he slowly said, “Old man Cang, I recall that you took 5 months to master the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’? That is one month longer than me.”
Hearing Jian Ge’s words, Cang Yan’s old face turned red, and just laughed it away.
“Learning the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’ fast doesn’t say anything. Although I was slower, I managed to become a sage 400 years earlier than you.” Cang Yan said proudly.
Jian Ge was rendered speechless upon hearing this. Old man Cang’s skin was really thick.
“Old fool, why don’t you mention that you are 800 years older than me!?”
Jian Ge and Cang Yan became sages around the same time. They had a friendly relationship, so it was common for them to spat.
But…in front of juniors, they would have to maintain their dignity and refrain from squabbling.
Yi Yun felt flattered that the two of them behaved in such a manner in front of him.
He knew that Cang Yan and Jian Ge had already treated him as a disciple amongst the juniors. As such, they acted freely, and they had no qualms doing so.
This clearly indicated that the two old men appreciated him!
“Haha! Earlier means earlier! About that…Kid!” Cang Yan turned towards Yi Yun, “I previously mentioned that those who learn the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’ might not become a sage. That is indeed true. In the past 5000 years, there are plenty of juniors who have learned the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’ faster than me, but the number of them that became a sage can be counted with my fingers! Although you mastered the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’ in two months, do not be complacent. You are still far from becoming a sage.”
Cang Yan was afraid that Yi Yun’s early accomplishment would get to his head, so he exhorted him.
Having led two lives, Yi Yun of course understood this. He respectfully answered, “This junior understands.”
“Alright.” Cang Yan nodded. “Speaking of this, about 100,000 years ago, there was a person who left the fastest record of mastering the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’. That person did become a sage, and he was one of the best amongst the sages.”
“Oh? There’s a record for mastering the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’?” Yi Yun stumbled for a while. There was even a record for the time it took to master the ‘Tai Ah Sacred Technique’?
If he knew that earlier, he would have declared so upon mastering it.
Yi Yun felt a pity because the rewards from such a record was definitely handsome!
He made a mental note to figure out what records he could break to quickly gain glory points.
