Thunder Drake sighed and said, "It is miraculous that he managed to create a cultivation technique the first time. It is unlikely that he will be able to do so a second and a third time."
"Even if his path his not a dead end, it doesn't change the fact that he has wasted a lot of time and effort. Even if he eventually advances, it won't change that fact that he has gene delayed."
"If he had stuck with what had been tried and tested, he would have achieved more quickly. He would have soared beyond his current state."
"So don't be like him. If you have a chance to take a better, faster, and safer route, do so. Don't risk your life when you have a chance not to. Instead, spend your genius on making the path that others took better and take it to the next level."
After advising Arthur, Thunder Drake ended his tirade by saying, "Good luck on your endeavors from now on. And if you have the urge to suddenly pursue a great truth, don't do so."
Then he said, "Goodbye."
