After taking the physique strengthening pills, Tian Long knew that he could surmount even a peak Emperor Transformation Realm Cultivator and fight an initial Life and Death Realm cultivator without losing. However, he would still have some trouble fighting mid and late stage Life and Death Realm cultivators for now.
(Note: Remember Level 1 to 3 = Initial, 4 to 6 = Mid, 7 to 9 = Late/Peak.)
Tian Long didn't even notice that it was morning already as he was too focused on trying to strengthen his body.
"I'll be meeting Lin Hui Yin in a while so I should prepare for it." He muttered to himself.
Tian Long stood up and walked towards Jian Chen's room. With his divine sense, he could "see" that Jian Chen was sitting cross-legged and cultivating.
He nodded his head as he said. "Indeed deserving of max 10 points for Will. Other kids at his age wouldn't even be able to bear the pain of raising the physique overbearingly by using the Apex pills which normal pills couldn't even compare to."
Naturally, he could see that Jian Chen's cultivation and physique was way stronger than before. He already broke through Qi Refining Level 2 within a single night and with his strong body, he could definitely win against mid-stage Qi Refiners and fight evenly against late-stage ones.
Tian Long waited until Jian Chen was finished before he knocked on the door.
Jian Chen, clenched his fists excitedly as he could feel a great amount of energy surging throughout his body. 'Those pills that master gave me were actually insanely effective, way better than the pills I got from the Sublime Sword Empire, but the process was very painful though...'
Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door. Obviously, the only person that would knock on his door was Tian Long so he stood up and opened it.
Tian Long said. "Hmm, Qi Refining Level 2, not bad, not bad." He smiled and continued. "As my first disciple, you need some rewards to keep your motivation up. if you're able to break through to Master stage, I'll give this Emperor grade sword to you." He took out a majestic golden sword which emitted a scorching aura around it. It's obviously the {Solar War-Blade} which Tian Long got from the system's reward.
Jian Chen's eyes almost popped out of its sockets as he salivated while looking at the sword. "Hehe, master is domineering indeed, giving away such a great sword like it's nothing. I thank master." He said as he reached his hand, intending to take the sword.
Before he could even touch it, the sword suddenly disappeared. Tian Long smirked. "Aii, I said you can only get it once you reach Master rank, so work hard my disciple."
Jian Chen pouted but he could only nod his head in this situation.
Tian Long said. "Get ready, we'll be meeting someone in a while." He then left after that.
______________________________________________
Emerald Pavillion, the best restaurant in the Azure Dragon City.
Inside the highest VIP room, a kingdom-toppling beauty could be seen sitting in front of all kinds of exquisite cuisines. Clearly, she was waiting for someone.
Tian Long appeared in front of the Pavillion entrance with Jian Chen following behind him. A female receptionist immediately came up to him and took him to the VIP room as she was already notified by her manager in advance.
Tian Long entered the VIP room and saw a young woman standing by the window and staring at him with a light smile on her face.
She had a slender, tall, and beautiful figure and along with her bountiful breasts, slender waist, and flawless face, calling her a peerless beauty and kingdom-toppling isn't just a figure of speech as her beauty is definitely extraordinary.
He then sat down in front of her, Jian Chen sat beside him.
"It's nice to meet you, Miss Lin, my name is Tian Long and this is my disciple, Jian Chen." He introduced.
Lin Hui Yin replied. "So it's master Tian, procuring such an amazing supreme {Tranquil Heart Pill}, master Long is definitely a supreme expert."
Tian Long lightly smiled. "You're humbling me. I've got so many pills of such kind that even I can't count it."
Her eyes flashed as she heard what he said. 'It doesn't seem that this person is lying... Either he's an extremely good actor or he's really not just an ordinary supreme expert.'
She said before she drank her tea. "Master Tian is definitely a dragon amongst men. Would it be possible for me to ask master Tian a favor? Of course, it won't be free. Master Tian is welcome to ask any condition for it."
Tian Long smiled and thought. 'Hehe, it seems that a chance has come for this one to accept a new member of the Eternal Glory Sect.'
He then replied. "Then I shall be straightforward. I would like to invite Miss Lin to be an elder of my sect."
Lin Hui Yin's brows wrinkled. "Oh? Which sect is it, if you don't mind me asking."
"Eternal Glory Sect."
Her mouth opened wide as she heard the name, however, she regained her calm immediately. "A really overbearing and domineering name for a sect. Such a sect must be housing a peak powerhouse of this world."
Tian Long smirked. "Nope, just me and my disciple for now, but don't worry as it'll be the strongest sect eventually. It's only a matter of time."
Lin Hui Yin was stunned by his confidence. "I really don't know if you're a fool or courageously stupid. Anyway, can you hear out my favor first?"
He nodded his head in response.
"You see, my grandfather is currently at the peak of Saint Realm so he would have to withstand the tribulation lightning to ascend to the False God Realm. Therefore I would need Master Tian's help if he has any kind of pill which could help my grandfather pass the tribulation." She asked.
Tian Long was stunned before he laughed. 'I can't believe that I can kill two birds with one stone from this. I can use the tribulation lightning to finally increase the level of my {Heavenly Lightning Body Refinement Method}.'
He replied. "I do indeed have a pill, however, I have a better method which would be easier for your grandfather to pass the tribulation lightnings."
Lin Hui Yin raised her brows. "Oh? then let's hear it."
"You see, I have a Body Refinement Method which uses lightnings to increase the prowess of my physique. The stronger the lightning the better, so with the tribulation lightning, my body strength would soar to the sky. And with my method, I would be able to attract the strikes of the tribulation lightning to myself. Therefore I can increase my physique's strength and let your grandfather smoothly pass the tribulation at the same time." He answered.
She was stunned again after what he said. "A body refinement method like which uses lightning and even tribulation lightning... Such Body Refinement Techniques can only be found from ancient ruins and battlefields. Its grade must be astonishingly high!"
Tian Long nonchalantly said. "Nothing much, its only a high-rank Immortal Grade technique."
Lin Hui Yin almost spat blood from what he heard as she wanted to yell at him. 'NOTHING MUCH?! IT'S AN IMMORTAL GRADE TECHNIQUE WHICH IS AS RARE AS A QILIN'S HORN AND PHOENIX'S FEATHER, AND IT'S A HIGH RANK ONE AT THAT!'
Tian Long ignored her stunned look as he continued with a smirk on his face. "If I'm able to help your grandfather to pass through the tribulation lightnings then you need to fulfill your promise and become an elder of my sect."
Lin Hui Yin, after thinking for a moment, agreed. "Alright, I'll join your crazy sect if your method really worked."
After a few more chatting, the three of them stood up. Tian Long asked. "So when do we start this?"
She replied. "Two days from now we will head to the Lin Family's Main Clan."
Tian Long nodded his head and left the room with Jian Chen walking behind him.
Lin Hui YIn stared at his back with a strange smile on her face.

After leaving the Emerald Pavillion, Jian Chen asked. "Master, do you really have such a high-level Immortal technique that was rare even during the Ancient Times?"
Tian Long smiled mysteriously. "It's just an Immortal Grade technique. In the future, depending on your performance, I'll reward you with a technique of the same level. Or maybe even a Divine Grade one ."
Jian Chen, hearing his words was petrified on the spot after hearing his master's words as he couldn't believe what he just heard.
After regaining his senses, he immediately followed Tian Long back to the inn.
