Lionel Yeager was suddenly taken aback and asked in his heart, "Senior Torres, Mr. Carney, have you been watching the battle all along?"
"Yes."
Gale Lawson replied, "We awoke as soon as you started fighting, so we wanted to see what you were up to."
Gale Lawson continued with a chuckle, "However, kid, you haven’t disgraced me and Big Brother at all, having continuously defeated all Earth Immortals. Not bad at all!"
Lionel Yeager helplessly said, "Seniors, since you were observing the battle, why didn’t you lend me strength to deal with that Pope of the Holy Light?"
Gale Lawson sighed, "Kid, if we helped you with everything, how would you ever grow?
Besides, we didn’t think you were in danger, so of course we wouldn’t intervene."
Gale Lawson added, "The most important thing is, at the final moment, the energy within you was already strong enough.
If we had given you more strength, it wouldn’t have helped you; it might have even harmed you."
"Understood."
Lionel Yeager nodded his head.
He couldn’t always depend on his seniors for help.
To grow, to become stronger, he must rely on himself.
Gale Lawson smiled faintly, "Kid, don’t be disheartened, nor discouraged.
As long as you can become a True Immortal, killing that so-called Pope of Holy Light would not be an issue at all.
Even if that guy can absorb the Power of Faith, he won’t be able to compete against you."
Gale Lawson continued, "Once you become a True Immortal, you will have truly joined the ranks of the Immortals.
By then, your strength will have significantly increased.
Kid, I am truly looking forward to the moment you become a True Immortal."
Lionel Yeager sighed, "Seniors, becoming a True Immortal sounds easy, but actually achieving it is incredibly difficult.
Up until now, I’ve only just barely touched the threshold of True Immortality, but stepping beyond it is no easy feat."
Gale Lawson showed displeasure, "Kid, why have you lost your ambition, where did your fighting spirit go?
Becoming a True Immortal isn’t as hard as you think."
Gale Lawson said, "Kid, your talent and understanding are very high, becoming a True Immortal is only a matter of time.
However, you need a good comprehension of what is the Tao, what is Heaven, Earth, Man, and Immortal.
Once you understand these five matters, you will naturally step into True Immortality.
Once a True Immortal, you will possess a Primordial Spirit, and even if your Physical Body is destroyed, as long as the Primordial Spirit remains, you can survive."
"Senior Torres, I will certainly contemplate deeply and strive to step into True Immortality as soon as possible!"
Lionel Yeager replied resoundingly, then asked, "By the way, stepping from Earth Immortal to True Immortal, does it require Crossing Tribulation?"
Gale Lawson answered, "Stepping from Earth Immortal to True Immortal does not require Crossing Tribulation, it requires realization."
"What about stepping from True Immortal to Celestial Immortal, does that require Crossing Tribulation?"
Lionel Yeager asked again.
Gale Lawson replied, "Stepping from True Immortal to Celestial Immortal naturally requires Crossing Tribulation.
The Tribulation of Celestial Immortal is many times more terrifying than that of Earth Immortal.
When you genuinely reach that step, you’ll understand."
"I see."
Lionel Yeager suddenly understood and nodded.
However, he himself was still far from becoming a Celestial Immortal; he would first try to become a True Immortal.
Since stepping into True Immortality required realization, there was no danger to his life.
Gale Lawson said, "Alright, kid, your injuries are quite severe, you should focus on healing them for now.
