Duan Gujin discovered that he had been too busy previously and had not given much thought to the challenges he would face after his rebirth. He had assumed that the future would unfold according to the past he remembered.
If the future indeed developed as per his past experiences, then he might not have been as panicked as he was now.
But after today's events, he felt that with the awakening after his rebirth, the past events in his memory would no longer proceed as they had before.
The manipulator behind the scenes might plan to move against the Duan Family earlier, or they might delay their plans, or they could have other bandits destroy the Duan family, or they might even abandon their plans to eliminate the Duan Family.
In short, anything was possible!
And no matter which possibility the future held, it was not something Duan Gujin could control; he simply had no certainty in his heart.
Realizing this issue, Duan Gujin decided that he must increase his cultivation as quickly as possible.
Only in this way could he face all possibilities and all dangerous situations.
"No matter how the future evolves, I can only make the utmost effort to change it!"
Duan Gujin thought to himself.
Had it not been for today's events, Duan Gujin would have thought that by doubling his effort, he could change the future.
But after today's events, Duan Gujin realized the unpredictability of the future.
"It seems, if I really want to change my past, I need to put in ten times more effort!"
Duan Gujin took a deep breath, suddenly feeling an intense sense of urgency in his heart.
This was a very strong sense of urgency, which made him discard his previous thoughts and decide to take drastic measures to increase his cultivation rapidly.
The reason he had to abandon the gradual approach he had initially planned was that it was too slow.
"I need to take a drastic step! I need to think carefully to see if there's any other way to quickly increase my cultivation!"
Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he reflected for a moment.
After pondering, his eyes suddenly lit up brightly.
"I remember now, my mother once mentioned that the Duan Family has a special cultivation site dedicated to the direct disciples of the Duan Family! Previously, I never had a Martial Soul, so I never entered that cultivation site. I don't know what condition it's in. I need to find my mother right now!"
Thus, Duan Gujin ran back to the Duan Family at extreme speed to find Mu Feiyan.
When he found Mu Feiyan, he swiftly asked her about the cultivation site of the Duan Family.
Upon hearing Duan Gujin's question, Mu Feiyan slightly furrowed her brows and said, "Gujin, if you want to enter that cultivation site, your Martial Soul must be at least a Red Martial Soul, but yours is still a White Plate Martial Soul..."
"Mother, look at my Martial Soul now!"
Duan Gujin's Martial Soul burst forth, and at the same time, a red Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul appeared above his head.
Seeing the Red Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul, Mu Feiyan was shocked, her lips trembling slightly.
She then realized that her son, Duan Gujin, had opened a Martial Meridian.
"So it is, then alright, follow me!"
Mu Feiyan, recognizing the Red Martial Soul released by Duan Gujin, guessed that his teacher, the King of Pills, must be helping him open the Martial Meridian secretly.
Therefore, she felt there were no surprises.
After all, the King of Pills was a highly respected figure capable of granting her child a Martial Soul and opening a Martial Meridian, so she felt no need to ask too many questions.
Mu Feiyan led Duan Gujin into the Duan Family's secret cultivation ground.
Right outside the main gate, Duan Gujin saw Duan Tianlang standing to the side, looking at him with disdain in his eyes.
He glanced at Mu Feiyan indifferently, then asked Duan Gujin, "Gujin, what are you doing here? This isn't your place for cultivation! You are not yet qualified to enter here for cultivation!"
"Idiots appear every year!"
Duan Gujin coldly responded, and instantly a red Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul flew out above his head.
Seeing the red Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul above Duan Gujin's head, Duan Tianlang was somewhat stunned.
A glint flashed across his eyes, but when he looked at Mu Feiyan, he quickly calmed down. Although Duan Gujin was not his match, he was no match for Mu Feiyan!
If he severely humiliated Duan Gujin here, Mu Feiyan would definitely make a move against him.
"Hmph, I have seven Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls! You only have a single Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul! You better spend a few more years on cultivation!"
After saying this, Duan Tianlang released the seven red Martial Souls on his body, looking at Duan Gujin with arrogance.
He was showing off to Duan Gujin!
"I don't argue with idiots! You may leave!"
Duan Gujin coldly uttered.
Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Duan Tianlang was furious.
"Tianlang, what are you still doing here? Go do your tasks!"
Although Mu Feiyan didn't know what the feud between Duan Gujin and Duan Tianlang was, she could tell from their conversation that there wasn't much friendship between them, and they spoke very aggressively.
"Fine! I'm leaving!"
Upon hearing Mu Feiyan's shout, Duan Tianlang quickly left.
He knew that Mu Feiyan was a genuine Innate Seventh Realm cultivator, while he was only at the Postnatal Seventh Realm, and there was a huge gap in strength between them.
If a conflict arose here, he was certainly no match for Mu Feiyan.
Mu Feiyan, holding a certain identity and status within the Duan Family, saw Duan Gujin release the red Martial Soul and immediately allowed him to enter one of the rooms for cultivation.
After entering the room, Duan Gujin first looked around and then sensed what secrets this room held.
After a while, he figured out the secrets of the Duan Family's cultivation ground.
"So the Duan Family has a ten times Gravity Array! This ten times Gravity Array is perfect for my level of cultivation! Fortune truly favors me!"
Duan Gujin had never entered the Duan Family's cultivation ground before, so he didn't know about the ten times gravity cultivation ground.
Feeling his body endure ten times gravity, Duan Gujin took a deep breath and quickly circulated his Primordial Power, starting his cultivation.
Such a gravity cultivation ground is most suitable for a cultivator in the Postnatal Realm, and once reaching the Innate Realm, only a hundred times gravity would suffice.
After cultivating for a while, Duan Gujin's body was covered in sweat.
Without taking time to wipe off the sweat, he quickly took out an Elixir Pill given by Mu Feiyan from his storage ring, swallowed it swiftly, and then sat cross-legged to recuperate.
That Elixir Pill was a special cultivation pill given by the Duan Family to Duan Gujin, enormously precious.
Previously, Duan Gujin had never had the chance to take such a pill, but now he finally had the opportunity to use the special pill prepared by the Duan Family for direct disciples.
