With this in mind, Xu Xing no longer hesitated. He went to the Great Hall of White Cloud Gate to apply to the Sect Master for seclusion in the Sect's Cave.
"Junior Brother Lan only broke through to the mid-stage of Nascent Soul less than three hundred years ago. Does he already have enough foundation to attempt a breakthrough to the late stage of Nascent Soul?"
The White Cloud Gate's Sect Master was an old woman; she was astonished to hear Xu Xing's request for seclusion.
Ordinary cultivators often need a thousand years to consolidate their cultivation after breaking through a realm. Yet, Lan Yang had only broken through to the mid-stage of Nascent Soul a mere three hundred years ago.
"Sect Master," Xu Xing said concisely, "I, Lan, have recently had a great opportunity."
Three hundred years was neither long nor short. With sufficient accumulation and a bit of luck, a breakthrough was well within reason.
