"By the way, how have you been progressing? I didn't give you a training plan, so I have no idea how far you've broken through."
Li Rui frowned and took out a piece of paper from his pocket, but one of the papers had vanished without a trace, leaving him completely puzzled.
"Weren't you supposed to have me stand on top for three hours, then strike objects from a distance and refine pills..."
The crazy old man was momentarily at a loss, as it seemed he hadn't done anything at all!
However, he seemed to remember something and asked Li Rui to showcase all his achievements.
After some time, Li Rui displayed everything he had accomplished over the past half month. The crazy old man's mouth dropped open in disbelief; he couldn't believe that Li Rui had managed to do so much in such a short time.
"Look at those dark circles under your eyes; you must not have closed them for half a month!"
Li Rui nodded repeatedly; it was indeed true. He had no idea how long it had been since he last closed his eyes. This kind of hellish training had truly pushed him to his limits.
Yet, a question arose in his mind. The crazy old man had indeed mentioned some things before leaving, and suddenly claiming that nothing had happened seemed rather absurd.
The crazy old man sat cross-legged on the ground, stroking his chin as if deep in thought. He occasionally glanced up at the waterfall and then down again, lost in contemplation.
Then he abruptly took Li Rui's hand and led him away from the forbidden area, telling him that he could never return to this place again.
Li Rui was completely baffled by this turn of events. Could there be some unspeakable monsters hidden inside?
The sudden sense of pressure he had felt earlier was now gone, replaced by an oddly relaxed feeling—it was truly bizarre.
"You need to keep everything that has happened recently a secret. If that group finds out, it could lead to chaos."
Li Rui was left stunned, while the crazy old man's face showed not even the slightest hint of deceit. It was unclear what he was trying to convey.
Li Rui couldn't help but think of another question.
"I've discovered something during these hellish training sessions! It seems that this training not only improves my alchemy skills but also enhances my practical experience and physical strength."
"You're not stupid after all! That's for sure! In that kind of environment, being able to lift two giant stones weighing ten thousand pounds each is something only someone in the Core Formation stage can do."
Li Rui frowned slightly, surprised that his abilities had reached such a level.
However, the next sentence from the crazy old man left Li Rui dumbfounded.
"From now on, I will call you the Helmsman. The sect might encounter some troubles in the near future, so you must take the people of the sect away! Even if it's just you, that's enough."
This...
"Senior, what do you mean by that?" Li Rui was confused and had no idea about the current situation.
"You must have been wondering where I've been, right? Our Helmsman has disappeared, and now the successor is you. What just happened cannot be spread; those two Old Monsters have already recognized you, and from now on..."
He paused midway and swallowed his words again. Li Rui nodded in surprise. Could it be that someone had been helping him before, and why hadn't he noticed it?
Now, the Helmsman had inexplicably vanished. What was going on?
Could it be that someone was coveting everything here?
"The situation hasn't reached an unimaginable level yet. In any case, this sect will be yours from now on. I believe you will make it thrive. Now go!"
Li Rui left in a daze; the crazy old man's words were extremely bizarre, and he didn't know what to think.
Upon returning, he saw the Grand Elder with a distressed expression on his face. He couldn't help but feel frustrated about what had happened.
"What's wrong? You look so worried!"
"Chief Helmsman, you... sigh!"
Li Rui felt even more confused; it seemed like he was the only one left in the dark.
Little did they know, the Grand Elder waved his hand and left.
"Ruo Xin, what’s going on here? Everyone looks so lifeless. What’s happening?"
"Where have you been? Don't you know it's your ceremony, Chief Helmsman?" Ruo Xin shook her head and instead questioned Li Rui.
The absurdity of the last sentence made Li Rui frown; he hadn't expected such a remark. It seemed that becoming the Chief Helmsman of Tai Xuan Sect was inevitable.
Unbeknownst to him, several groups had found Li Rui.
"Others may acknowledge you as Chief Helmsman, but I refuse to accept it. What’s so great about being at the Qi Sea realm? Even if you are at the peak of Qi Sea, it’s still just this level. Today, I’m here to challenge you!"
Li Rui looked at the five individuals approaching him; each was at the fifth level of Cleansing the Marrow. He couldn't understand how they had the audacity to challenge someone at the peak of Qi Sea.
Ruo Xin seemed to want to stop them but was held back by Li Rui.
He could withstand the power of connecting to the Dan realm; how could he not handle these five at Cleansing the Marrow's fifth level?
"Come on! Let’s meet in the Arena."
In an instant, this news spread like wildfire. Even the Grand Elder arrived, feeling a flicker of hope in his heart for some unknown reason; this time, he had great confidence in Li Rui.
On the other hand, the surrounding elders were not optimistic about Li Rui's chances in this situation and were puzzled by it.
"Then let's get started!"
"I advise you to put down your title of Grand Master; resisting is not the wisest choice."
"In that case, I have nothing to say. Come at me! I've never been afraid of anyone."
"Alright, soon you'll be crying for help."
Gradually, a wave of True Qi spread out, transforming into liquid and suddenly launching a fierce attack on Li Rui, not just from one person.
However, seeing this situation, Li Rui couldn't help but grin. The Cleansing Realm he had seen before seemed quite impressive, and during the past half month of hellish training, his agility had improved significantly.
For some reason, the skills attacking him from a distance turned to nothing with a wave of his hand! The scene was truly eerie.
Suddenly, in the silence of the venue, a loud roar erupted, followed by applause and thumbs up; Li Rui was undoubtedly the most dazzling person present.
