Cultivation Online

1441 A Little Early

Yuan stared at the Great One's overbearing eyes and spoke after a moment of silence, "You're actually serious about recruiting me as your disciple?"

"Of course. I wouldn't joke about something like this. What makes you think I am joking?" The Great One asked.

"I thought most beings of your stature typically avoided such things, especially since you're a Divine Beast."

Since Divine Beasts and humans have different cultivation methods, it wouldn't make sense for a Divine Beast to teach a human in cultivation. Another reason would be their lack of human cultivation techniques and resources.

However, the Great One was an entity that stood at the very top of the cultivation world with unimaginable wealth and resources, so such problems weren't an issue for him.

"If it were a few million years ago, I would've simply laughed at such an idea, but times have changed. Divine Beasts and humans are no longer isolated in their own world, and the world itself is evolving in ways even I cannot fathom."

"In fact, you won't be my first disciple—or even second, but the third."

Yuan smiled and said, "It's a very enticing proposal, especially since it's coming from an entity such as the Great One. Unfortunately, I will have to decline."

The Great One narrowed his eyes, his gaze seemingly filled with disappointment.

"Why?" he asked.

This marked his first experience of being rejected in such a matter. He wasn't exaggerating when he claimed that even immortals and gods would be willing to become his disciples due to his unfathomable wealth and unshakable position within the Nine Heavens.
