Collect the rags and I become a clairvoyant doctor

Chapter 2541 Guess

“My cultivation level is currently stuck at the peak of the Heavenly Profound Realm, unable to advance even an inch. I thought there was a problem with my own cultivation, but now, seeing what's happening to you, I think I understand what's going on.”

"You mean... there's also the suppression of the Heavenly Dao here?"

Su Chen is not an outsider; he and Qin Fei both came from Earth.

Previously, due to the suppression of the Heavenly Dao on Earth, the cultivation level of everyone on Earth improved extremely slowly. Now, after hearing Qin Fei say this, Su Chen immediately realized what was going on.

"I am not sure whether there is any suppression from the Heavenly Dao, but I can confirm that our cultivation levels are currently being affected by a strange force, which prevents us from breaking through."

"We'll probably have to stay in our current state for a while."

"Damn, what's going on here?"

After hearing Qin Fei's words, Su Chen couldn't help but curse, "I finally saw a glimmer of hope for breaking through to the mid-stage of the Earth Profound Realm, but now all my efforts have been in vain."

"It's not entirely a waste of time. I don't think this force will suppress us forever. Perhaps it will soon lift its restrictions on us."

This ancient battlefield world is not Earth; powerful individuals are being continuously transported over from the teleportation array.

Once everyone has arrived, with the help of top experts, perhaps everyone's cultivation level will be able to break through normally again.

"Then I'll refrain from taking the pills for now."

Su Chen didn't have many pills to begin with. He had taken a lot of pills to break through his cultivation level, but now that they couldn't break through, it would be a waste for him to take more pills.

"There's news."

Just then, Li Yan returned.

The city wasn't very big, and gathering information was no problem for a top-tier force like theirs. Even though only two or three minutes had passed, he had already received the message.

"What's the situation outside?"

Qin Fei led Su Chen to Li Yan and asked him a question.

“I had only roughly summarized the intelligence sent back from the outside before, but now, after making inquiries, it turns out that people outside are indeed unable to break through their cultivation levels, and many are experiencing the same situation as you,” Li Yan said.

"It seems my guess was right. Now, not only me, but I'm afraid even you yourself can't break through to the next level," Qin Fei said to Li Yan.

"This is truly bizarre; I have never encountered anything so strange before."

At this point, Li Yan immediately sent a message to summon his protector.

He planned to ask the other party if they knew anything about the inside story.

Before long, Li Yan's protector arrived. When he saw Qin Fei and Li Yan, he seemed to understand what they wanted to ask.

He first nodded to Qin Fei, then looked at Li Yan and said in a low voice, "Young Master, are you asking about the problem of not being able to break through the cultivation level?"

Previously, Li Yan had ordered the Li family to go out and gather information on this matter, so his protectors knew exactly what Li Yan wanted to ask.

"Yes!"

Li Yan nodded and then said, "According to Brother Qin and his junior brother's descriptions, they have encountered a huge obstacle in their breakthrough. They are on the verge of breaking through, but they just can't take that step. They suspect that there is a problem with our world. Your cultivation is stronger than ours. Have you ever had any insights into this?"

“There is no trace of the Heavenly Dao in this place. Even if one’s cultivation level cannot be broken through, the most likely reason is that Heaven and Earth are intentionally suppressing it. But our cultivation was normal before, and I can’t figure out the reason for this for the time being.” Li Yan’s protector shook his head and said.

Although his cultivation level was higher than Qin Fei and Li Yan, there were some things he didn't understand very well. If the God of Wine were here, he could ask him.

But now this powerful figure has disappeared, and he can no longer give his young master an answer.

"The inability to break through our cultivation level has affected each and every one of us. I think the major powers will soon take this issue seriously, and then we can all gather together to discuss countermeasures."

Cultivation is inherently a matter of either progressing or regressing, especially for the younger generation who are racing against time. They all know that as they get older, it becomes increasingly difficult to break through to higher realms.

The young people gathered here now are not just from the Li family; Liu Wen and others are also here.

Therefore, they should soon realize that this problem is of great importance.

"Both of you should refrain from using the cultivation supplies for now. Let me send someone out to find out more about the situation." After saying this, Li Yan immediately went to find someone to gather information.

"What's this all about?"

Su Chen let out a long breath, feeling a sense of suffocation.

He had clearly reached the edge of a breakthrough, but now he's stuck for some unknown reason. How can that not be frustrating?

However, at this moment he also realized that Qin Fei's cultivation level was actually lower than his own, and he couldn't help but ask, "Senior brother, why is your cultivation level lower than mine?"

"Didn't you already reach the Earth Profound Realm?"

"This is a long story, so I won't go into it. Just remember this: although my cultivation level is lower than yours, I can take on a hundred of you by myself!" Qin Fei said calmly.

"Tch, anyone can brag."

"I could have said I could have defeated you with one hand!" Su Chen scoffed at Qin Fei's words.

The higher the cultivation level, the greater the difference in combat power. How could Su Chen possibly believe what Qin Fei said?

"Judging from your tone, you seem to be interested in my position as your senior brother. Don't you know that you shouldn't even think about things you shouldn't covet?"

"I believe that cultivation is essentially about contending with Heaven and with humanity..."

boom!

Before Su Chen could finish speaking, a vast power suddenly exploded in front of him, and he was blasted away by Qin Fei's punch.

Qin Fei was holding back on purpose; otherwise, that punch could have pierced Su Chen's stomach.

"Are you still going to fight for the position of senior brother?" Qin Fei asked Su Chen calmly.

"How...how can you be so strong?"

Feeling the churning in his stomach, Su Chen felt as if Qin Fei had almost broken his intestines. Could someone in the late stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm possess such power?

Did he see a ghost?

"I told you, don't even think about things that aren't yours to covet. When I said I could beat you a hundred times over, it was based on facts. Do you really think I have the time to joke with you?"

"My hair... the world has changed."

In Su Chen's imagination, his realm was indeed stronger than Qin Fei's, and his combat power would certainly be stronger as a result. However, reality was like a ruthless slap in the face, making it difficult for him to accept this reality.

"Your senior brother's combat power is now comparable to the late stage of the Divine Radiance Realm. Your cultivation at the early stage of the Earth Profound Realm is indeed not enough. You are far behind." At this moment, Li Yan's protector couldn't help but say a word in Qin Fei's defense.

Considering that Qin Fei had previously held his own against Liu Wen, it's no wonder Su Chen judged Qin Fei with the standards of a normal person and deserved to be beaten up.

"Late stage of the Divine Radiance Realm???"

Su Chen could hardly believe what he was hearing. How could someone in the late stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm be comparable to someone in the late stage of the Divine Radiance Realm? Was he hallucinating from taking too much fake medicine, or had the world gone mad?

He felt like his entire worldview was being challenged.

“It seems you don’t know much about your senior brother. Just go out and ask anyone, and you’ll know what’s going on,” said Li Yan’s protector.

"I do not believe!"

Su Chen certainly didn't believe what Li Yan, the protector, said, so he immediately rushed out of the Li family's residence and went outside to find out the truth.

About five minutes later, Su Chen returned looking dejected.

It was clear that he had learned about Qin Fei's true combat strength from outsiders.

If he was previously equivalent to a rooster, then he is now equivalent to a chick.

The gap was simply too vast, and he had no choice but to accept this cruel reality.

Qin Fei's growth over this period of time has far exceeded his imagination. His cultivation at the early stage of the Earth Profound Realm is probably not even enough to defeat one of Qin Fei's fingers.

He had previously boasted that he could defeat Qin Fei with one hand; now it seems like a complete joke.

"Now you can call me 'Senior Brother' without worry?" Qin Fei asked Su Chen.

“Senior brother, I was narrow-minded before. From now on, I will take you as my goal and strive to catch up!” Su Chen said with a determined look.

“It’s easy to catch up in terms of cultivation level, but if the difference in combat strength is too great, then it probably won’t be of much use.”

Thinking of this, Qin Fei asked directly, "Did your master mention that he would train you when he accepted you as his disciple?"

"train?"

"No," Su Chen shook his head. "My master said I had decent talent, and then he officially accepted me as his disciple."

"You accepted it so easily?"

Qin Fei had personally experienced how strict the God of Wine was in accepting disciples. Since he said that Su Chen's cultivation talent was acceptable, it meant that Su Chen's talent was extremely extraordinary. Otherwise, given the God of Wine's status, why would he accept Su Chen as a disciple?

Qin Fei just didn't understand why, if he had taken Su Chen as his disciple, he hadn't taught Su Chen to comprehend any special artistic conceptions.

Wouldn't it be a disgrace to the old man if word got out that he was just an ordinary Earth Profound Realm disciple?

This makes no sense at all.

Without the support of a special artistic conception, Su Chen could not be considered a super prodigy at all, because this was essentially the entry ticket to becoming a super genius.

"After he accepted you as his disciple, did he say anything else?" Qin Fei, still skeptical, asked again.

"He didn't seem to say much. He just told me to come and seek refuge with you, and then he disappeared," Su Chen said after carefully recalling what had happened.

"Damn, he's not going to assign me the task of teaching Su Chen too, is he?"

Qin Fei understood the meaning behind Su Chen's words, and his expression immediately changed.

He's already struggling to take care of himself, so how could he possibly have time to teach Su Chen how to cultivate? Wouldn't that just be adding to his burden?

Qin Fei was also a master, and he knew the principle that "a teacher for a day is a father for life." Since he had taken someone as his disciple, he had to be responsible for their future.

If the God of Wine were to actually entrust Su Chen with the task of teaching him, wouldn't that be utterly irresponsible?
