Chapter 5
Looking at Cao Yun’s departing figure, Elder Xie stroked his beard and pondered.
He did not think that Su Chen could really reach the legendary Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm.
The probability of such a thing happening was extremely low. Even a rare genius would not be able to reach the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm.
It was just a random guess that he had made.
However, Cao Yun, who had just left, did not know.
At this moment, Elder Xie’s words were still echoing in his mind.
Based on Elder Xie’s tone and demeanor, coupled with Cao Yun’s own headcanon, he was now certain that Su Chen was a super genius who had stepped into the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm.
“Since Elder Xie said so, it must be true. Senior Brother Su Chen is indeed blessed with the Heavenly Dao providence. He can actually step into the legendary Forbidden Stage… I definitely have to ride his coattails!”
The more Cao Yun thought about it, the more excited he became.
He felt that his decision to please Senior Brother Su Chen was the best decision he had ever made in his life.
Not only did Su Chen have amazing moments of serendipity, but his talent was also peerless.
If one wanted to reach the Forbidden Stage in a single realm, it was impossible to rely solely on luck. One also needed sufficient talent as support.
Su Chen lacked neither luck nor talent, so he was destined to be extraordinary in the future!
Cao Yun was filled with excitement along the way.
Soon, he met his junior brothers halfway.
After a simple conversation, Cao Yun told them that Su Chen had advanced to the Forbidden Stage.
“The Forbidden Stage?”
“Senior Brother Cao, are you talking about the Forbidden Stage that is known to make someone invincible among those of the same level?”
“What? Did Elder Xie say it himself?”
“Senior Brother Su Chen is indeed blessed with the Heavenly Dao providence. That’s incredible!”
…
[Ding! Congratulations on being bragged about by others. The brag is Level Blue!]

Su Chen, who was cultivating in the thatched cottage, heard the system notification in his mind.
He slowly opened his eyes.
“The Forbidden Stage…”
Su Chen muttered to himself softly as he listened to the system notification echoing in his mind.
“A hundred people. That is not so difficult…”
Su Chen murmured to himself.

Not long after, Cao Yun came to convey Elder Xie’s message.
After the message was delivered, Cao Yun left.
Su Chen could clearly feel that the way Cao Yun looked at him had changed greatly.
[Bragging content: The Forbidden Stage: 30/100]
Thinking about how he was suddenly bragged about entering the Forbidden Stage, Su Chen immediately understood.
“You are really lucky!” Elder Xie said after sizing Su Chen up.
As a man of great insight, Elder Xie could tell at a glance that Su Chen’s injuries had completely recovered.
“Elder, you are flattering me,” Su Chen said humbly.
Elder Xie knew very well of the original host’s two fortuitous adventures, so he deduced that Su Chen was blessed with providence.
“Thank you, Elder Xie!”
Su Chen cupped his hands slightly.
Although Elder Xie was stronger than Su Chen, he was still just an outer elder of the Great Mystery Sect.
Even if he personally came out to negotiate, he couldn’t do anything to the Everlasting Sect disciples.
Usually, this kind of thing was usually left to the outer sect deacons to deal with. Since Elder Xie was willing to personally interfere, he seemed to have taken a stand on this matter.
Su Chen didn’t reject Elder Xie’s gesture of goodwill.
With the protection of an elder in the Great Mystery Sect, it would be much more convenient to do anything.
“Right, there’s something I need to remind you of.”
Elder Xie looked at Su Chen and paused for a brief moment before continuing, “The reason why you’re targeted by the Everlasting Sect disciples should be because you are blessed with the Heavenly Dao providence. No one will easily provoke a person blessed with the Heavenly Dao providence unless the two parties are originally enemies! It’s a good thing for us that you are blessed with the Heavenly Dao providence, but this is something that the Everlasting Sect doesn’t want to see. They’re trying to consume your providence. Though you fell on your feet this time, you may face even more danger next time!”
At this point, Elder Xie’s expression gradually became solemn.
