Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times-Chapter 352 - 158: ’Give my regards to the elders in your family.

Chapter 352 -158: ‘Give my regards to the elders in your family.

Soon, the sky darkened.

And there came a knocking outside Chen Qiu’s inn.

“Mr. Ren, the Philosophical Debate has started, Mr. Su asked me to invite Mr. Ren downstairs.”

“Hmm.”

Chen Qiu responded and immediately, along with Fat Long Scholar and another person, opened the room door and followed the servant downstairs to the inn’s first floor where the Philosophical Debate was about to begin.

By then, the area around the inn had already been cleared.

...

And a great magical formation had been set up outside the inn to ensure that whatever happened inside remained unknown to the outside world.

As he entered the inn’s hall under the guidance of the servant.

The inn’s hall was already filled with many Heavenly Pride, who were gathered in groups of threes and twos.

Upon seeing Chen Qiu descending the stairs, the Su Family Young Master’s eyes brightened, and he quickly approached, whispering to Chen Qiu, “Well, Mr. Ren, there’s some bad news, your identity might have been exposed, and now everyone knows your real name is Chen Qiu.”

“Mainly because a few days ago, the Quzhou Merit Leaderboard suddenly listed someone with 9.8 billion merit points, named Chen Qiu.”

“And Mr. Ren, you happened to make a name for yourself in Quzhou around the same time. Before this, there was no sign of you in Quzhou, and… it’s said that at that time near Great Yuan City, you killed a monk with 100,000 merit points without any backlash.”

“Many families have already started inquiring about you, and by now, most have confirmed you are Chen Qiu.”

“Oh.”

Chen Qiu chuckled lightly, “It doesn’t matter, Chen Qiu or not, it’s all the same.”

He had never planned to hide his identity; initially, he adopted the alias Ren just to tease Qi Mei.

The beauty of Qi, facetiously implying the beauty among people.

Unfortunately, Qi Mei wasn’t very quick on the uptake, failing to realize it even as he died, which Chen Qiu found a bit boring, or perhaps it was indeed too oblique a connection?

Afterwards, Chen Qiu scanned the Heavenly Prides in the hall; each of them looked at him with complicated expressions.

“Okay!”

The Su Family Young Master breathed a sigh of relief, “Then we’ll just call you Mr. Chen. Tonight’s Philosophical Debate is mainly for the Heavenly Pride of Quzhou to get to know each other, discuss the myriad problems on the Cultivation Path, each of us being among the top young talents of Quzhou. By discussing together, we can also gain a clearer understanding of our true selves, and there’s a small surprise.”

…

Chen Qiu, led by the Su Family Young Master, settled into a spot.

At that moment, there were about thirty to forty Heavenly Prides in the hall.

It must be said, that was a considerable number of Heavenly Prides; besides, with each Heavenly Pride, there were followers and Guardians, many of whom had a Nascent Soul Guardian behind them, making them look quite formidable.

And at that moment—

On the second floor of the inn, the current Su Family Patriarch looked on indifferently at Chen Qiu sitting on the first floor, sipped his tea lightly before casually asking, “Is this the Talent of Magic Practitioner you mentioned?”

“Yes.”

The Su Family Young Master earnestly replied, “His name is Chen Qiu. In the initial screening of the Heavenly Prides in the Secret Realm, he scored a perfect 100, and he cleared the first two rounds in just one breath. In the third round, the Golden Core grading, he even surpassed Li Shiyi, which means he is at least a Ninth-Grade Golden Core.”

“If we really have to grant the Divinity Transformation Body in the Inheritance Secret Realm to one of the Heavenly Prides as a favor, he would be the best choice.”

The Su Family Patriarch glanced sideways at his son, casually remarking, “That generous, huh? You know you don’t even have a Divinity Transformation Body yet, and the Divinity Transformation Body in the Su Family Inheritance Secret Realm was originally intended for you to form a Fourth-Grade Nascent Soul.”

“Sigh.”

The Su Family Young Master sighed helplessly, “Can’t help it; I have tried the Su Family Inheritance Secret Realm many times and simply can’t clear it. I don’t know why our ancestor made the inheritance challenges so difficult.”

“Speaking of which, Father, you are a mighty Divinity Transformation Practitioner yourself. You could use your Divinity Transformation Body, or maybe you should just die early so your son could form a Fourth-Grade Nascent Soul.”

“If not, you could kill a rival family’s Divinity Transformation Practitioner; that would work too.”

“Talk sense, please.”

The Su Family Patriarch looked at his son with a deadpan expression, not angry at his son’s imprudent words since they had a good relationship, “You think Divinity Transformation powerhouses are easy to kill?”

“Why don’t you try killing one yourself?”

“A Third-Grade Nascent Soul might not be ideal, but it’d suffice. Honestly, you never had much talent in cultivation anyway. Let’s just settle for that. The ancestor primarily set the level difficult because he hoped a peerless talent among the descendants would eventually emerge.”

“A Third-Grade Nascent Soul isn’t too bad. I myself didn’t clear the Su Family Inheritance Secret Realm but still managed to break through to the Divinity Transformation Stage with a Third-Grade Nascent Soul. Back then, many of my fellow Heavenly Prides, boasting Fourth and Fifth-Grade Nascent Souls, are still stagnating at the Nascent Soul stage decades later; only I have broken through to the Divinity Transformation Stage.”

“Often, initial advantages don’t mean much, Cultivation is a long-term matter; as long as one lives long enough, opportunities will come.”

…

The Philosophical Debate started swiftly, a simple exchange meeting.

It was a battle of words, not of martial force.

Many Heavenly Prides discussed fervently, while Chen Qiu just sat quietly in a corner, silent; philosophy was not his forte.

The so-called battle of words.

Involved each person adhering to an opinion and then trying to persuade the opposite side.

In his view, trying to convince someone who disagrees with you is foolish; this isn’t something that a Philosophical Debate could resolve but something that a Martial Contest should.
