The Arrogant Cultivator

When Qi Fei became a celestial being, the entire cultivation world was surprisingly silent, with no one coming to congratulate him. His disciple asked, "Master, you achieved immortality so quickly, perhaps the fastest in history, why didn't anyone come to congratulate you?" Qi Fei replied, "I'm not sure, maybe they're just jealous." However, his disciple revealed that people found Qi Fei's speech confusing and unclear, which was why they didn't bother to congratulate him. Qi Fei argued that his way of speaking was actually a form of dialectical thinking, and he had already simplified his words as much as possible. Qi Fei's disciple asked if there was a simpler way to cultivate, but Qi Fei insisted that his methods were correct and that others should be able to understand him through observation. The disciple pointed out that Qi Fei had already surpassed and humbled entire sects, and asked if they needed to learn from him as well. Qi Fei replied that of course, they did, because the older generation would often brag and belittle him, saying he had only been cultivating for a few years. The disciple sarcastically asked if the tortoise, which had been cultivating for the longest time, was the most powerful being in the cultivation world. Qi Fei retorted that he had defeated those who opposed him, and that was the true meaning of "practicing to eliminate demons and uphold justice," and that true knowledge comes from practice.
