Chapter 2175 The Origin Of The Universe! The Limit Of The Cosmos Stage! (1)
A towering mountain hovered in the void.
At the summit, a figure sat cross-legged on the ground, and a black-haired youth lay suspended in front of him.
"The unprecedented strength of the soul!"
"Even with my many years of experience, this can be called a first."
"No wonder his spiritual power is so formidable!"
"And that power of will, ancient and unyielding, intertwined with lightning, these are rarely seen willpowers. I didn't expect them to appear simultaneously in a martial warrior at the cosmos stage. Truly intriguing."
"Moreover, the degree of these willpowers far exceeds his own realm, at least reaching the universe stage."
"In addition, there are traces of various talents in him. These talents are different, yet they perfectly blend into his body and even his soul, without any rejection or non-integration."
"From the essence of his soul, he's just in his twenties, yet he has achieved such accomplishments, surpassing the most powerful races in the universe."
"It seems that this young man has many secrets."
The middle-aged man with white hair cast a profound gaze over the black-haired youth before him, and his eyes flashed with strange light.
This youth had indeed provided him with quite a few surprises.
Before Wang Teng used the power of will, he thought Wang Teng was not the person he was looking for. However, now it seemed he had almost misjudged him.
The black-haired youth before him was more than qualified to become his disciple.
Moreover, he was like a piece of extraordinary jade. With careful carving, he could undoubtedly surpass the geniuses of the most powerful races.
After an unknown period, Wang Teng slowly regained consciousness. The pain in his body had disappeared, and his spiritual form had once again become solid. He looked at his condition with some astonishment.
He had nearly dissipated before, but now he had inexplicably returned to normal. It was truly miraculous!
Wait!
No, this wasn't his spiritual form. It was his physical body. His spiritual form has returned to his physical body. No wonder everything felt strange.
With his physical body back, Wang Teng finally felt a sense of security. Otherwise, he felt like he was walking around without clothes.
Wait a minute, he seemed to have seen someone here when he climbed up.
Wang Teng was suddenly startled and quickly looked around, only to find himself suspended in mid-air. The figure that was sitting cross-legged before was now sitting beside him.
He was instantly shocked, and his whole body fell from mid-air to the ground.
The person sat silently beside him, like a ghost. If it were an ordinary martial warrior, with his spiritual power, he would have sensed it a long time ago. But this person showed no fluctuations, and he didn't notice anything.
"Aren't you supposed to be very bold? Why are you scared now?" The middle-aged man with white hair said.
"Hehe." Wang Teng forced a laugh and said, "I'm not scared, just unprepared."
"How do I address you?"
"I… have no name!" The middle-aged man with white hair said calmly. His tone revealed a sense of ancientness.
"No name?!" Wang Teng's eyes flickered, thinking to himself. How can a person not have a name?
Despite his thoughts, he bowed respectfully and said, "Then I will address you directly as… Elder?"
"No need for too much courtesy." The middle-aged man with white hair looked at Wang Teng, nodded, and said, "As I mentioned before, as long as you climb up here, I will accept you as my disciple. Now, I will fulfill my promise."
A glint flashed in Wang Teng's eyes.
He was going to take him in as his disciple!
Direct!
Decisive!
Wang Teng couldn't help but wonder about the true cultivation level of this elder. If he was indeed a being above the god stage, he wouldn't need to be afraid of anyone in the universe anymore.
"What's your name?" The white-haired middle-aged man asked.
"Wang Teng!" Wang Teng replied.
The white-haired middle-aged man nodded. He said slowly, "In my entire life, I have taken in only two disciples. Now, you are the third."
"However, my true body is not present here. This is just a remnant left behind by me. So, for now, I can only acknowledge you as my disciple-in-name."
"Once you come before me in the future, I will formally hold a disciple initiation ceremony and officially accept you as my disciple."
Wang Teng's eyes flickered with a hint of disappointment. It turned out he was just a disciple-in-name.
However, the elder mentioned that his true body was not present, so Wang Teng dared not ask for more.
"However, the next time we meet, if your progress fails to satisfy me, I reserve the right to revoke your status at any time," the middle-aged man with white hair added.
"???" Wang Teng was speechless. Just a moment ago, the elder seemed straightforward, but now there was a sudden change.
Nevertheless, he wasn't worried about failing to impress the elder. After all, he had some special advantages.
If he couldn't gain recognition under these circumstances, he might as well find a hole to hide in and never come out again.
He wanted to find a master because he wanted a powerful backing, thus providing enough time for his personal growth. Wang Teng had the support of the system, so he didn't need to rely too much on a master for cultivation.
Hence, having a disciple-in-name was not bad.
"You don't need to worry. With your age and cultivation level, I am already quite satisfied. With your talent, as long as you continue to grow smoothly, you can surpass the majority of geniuses," the middle-aged man with white hair said. "Moreover, now that you are my disciple-in-name, I will naturally provide you with some opportunities."
"Opportunities!" Wang Teng's eyes lit up. Tangible benefits were always welcomed. Excitedly, he exclaimed, "Master!"
Seeing Wang Teng's eager expression, the middle-aged man couldn't help but find it amusing. Shaking his head, he said, "Don't be in such a hurry. Before I provide you with opportunities, I need to know which path you intend to take."
