When the reward is too tempting, Chen Yi feels that taking a calculated risk is not necessarily a bad thing. He is merely the middleman, and most of the pressure is borne by Old Master Gong. As long as he can secure time to grow and remain steady and low-profile, the fallout should be minimal. Even if some trouble arises, it is a small price to pay for early access to a cultivation-world Body Refining technique. Although Vajra Skill is only a foundational technique, Chen Yi’s "Heaven Rewards Diligence" destiny thrives on laying foundations; only with a solid foundation can one go far and reach great heights in the future!
Without further hesitation, Chen Yi readily agreed. After the terms were settled, Senior Jin wanted Chen Yi to practice the first level of the Vajra Skill on the spot so he could provide guidance, but Chen Yi checked the sky and reckoned it was time for Wu Li to emerge from the Zuichun Pavilion.
"Thank you, Senior Jin, but I don’t have many questions about the first level yet. Let’s save the guidance for later."
